Chapter 1864

Among the world's attention, Daqian began acquisition negotiations with GM, Ford and Chrysler.

Because it is related to the pillar automobile industry of the United States, at the beginning, many people regarded this acquisition as an opportunity to rescue the United States from the quagmire of the economic crisis. Therefore, at this time, the Americans were still happy to see the success of the acquisition.

So almost all American media are urging Daqian to pay quickly and buy the three companies.

But the negotiations were deadlocked at the beginning.

This negotiation and acquisition is a joint negotiation, that is, GM, Ford and Chrysler share a negotiation team, so they can be said to be highly united and have surprisingly consistent policies. Finally, the three companies offered a sky high purchase price of $1.2 trillion.

The reason is very simple. Last year, the combined turnover of the three companies was US $600 billion. In addition, there are a large number of high-quality fixed assets. For example, the three companies have more than 300000 acres of industrial parks in Detroit, and the combined price of these lands alone exceeded US $500 billion.

In addition, the three companies also have 4 million experienced high-quality industrial workers. Each of them is a senior talent with decades of work experience. Why should these workers sell for $100 billion.

So eventually, the three companies jointly offered a sky high purchase price of $1.2 trillion.

When Wang Chuanfu heard the price, he got up and left. He never appeared on the negotiating table that day. The angry representatives of the three companies turned black.

However, it did not get a lot of sympathy.

With a $1.2 trillion offer, GM has slaughtered Daqian not as a Kaizi, but as an Indian.

First of all, even if the three companies do have a turnover of $600 billion, the turnover is not equal to net profit.

If you look at the financial reports of the three companies last year, you will find that the net profit is as high as $40 billion, but this is a negative number.

The three companies lost $40 billion last year.

In addition, there are the so-called fixed assets worth $500 billion. It seems like that, but the price of $500 billion is calculated according to the land price of Detroit two months ago.

The reason why the land price in Detroit can be so high is actually entirely dependent on these three companies, which are pushed up by the industrial workers of these three companies.

If Daqian buys these three companies and plans to sell land to make money, I'm afraid the whole land price will collapse in an instant.

These three enterprises have gone, and millions of industrial workers have gone. I'm afraid Detroit will not become a ghost city.

In fact, referring to the house prices in Detroit in another world in 2020, you will know how the situation in Detroit is.

On the Internet, a three story villa in Detroit sells for only a dollar.

This is not a hoax or a joke. It's true. As long as you are willing to buy a dollar, the original homeowner will rush over immediately and cooperate with you to go through various procedures as quickly as possible. In the end, even the cost of one dollar will be happy to leave you!

You may be very surprised. Even if the land price in Detroit fell the worst, is it a little science fiction to buy a house for one dollar?

This is not science fiction, because in the United States, each house also needs to pay about 2% of the property tax every year.

In other words, if you don't sell your house in Detroit, you may have to pay tens of thousands of dollars in property tax every year. The workers in Detroit are gone, and all supporting facilities and businesses are gone. In fact, Detroit has become unfit for human habitation. These houses are not occupied at all, but they have to charge a high real estate tax. Anyone can't wait to sell the house quickly, even if it's not a problem.

Finally, industrial workers worth $100 billion are even more funny. If you can, no enterprise will be willing to accept these industrial workers.

In fact, to some extent, the auto manufacturers such as General Motors will lose so much, which is inseparable from the workers in these industries.

In everyone's impression, the United States may be a capitalist country that desperately exploits workers, but this is not the case for GM and other enterprises, because these workers have formed a very powerful work organization, that is, the American automobile trade union.

The purpose of the trade union is only one, that is, constantly trying to improve workers' treatment and reduce workers' working hours.

It sounds very tall. It's even more Chinese than Chinese. It's very perfect.

But it is true that these unions are about to destroy all American car companies.

Several years later, a glass manufacturer from China entered the United States.

He believes that opening factories in the United States has many advantages, such as cheap electricity, saving the cost of product transportation, and saving a lot of taxes and fees.

After calculation, the glass company found that if it opened a factory in the United States, its profits might increase by about 10%.

In addition, the black leader at that time was also vigorously pursuing the policy of manufacturing return, and tried every means to invite the company to open factories in the United States. Finally, the Chinese glass manufacturer really opened a factory in the United States.

Two years later, the retired black commander actually went to this factory to make a documentary. In fact, the purpose was simple, just to show off his political achievements.

But it was this documentary that exposed the long suppressed contradictions of American workers.

This contradiction is the contradiction between the manufacturer and the American trade union. The chairman of this glass enterprise even said in front of the American commander that he would never accept the American trade union system. If you have to have trade unions, it doesn't matter if you shut down American factories and lose one-time losses or earn 10 billion less.

Because the chairman has been tormented by the trade union.

This toss is the winning means of the trade union: strike.

On September 16, 2008, General Motors announced that due to poor management and serious losses, the company may go bankrupt.

Then on September 18, the UAW announced that about 49000 GM employees across the United States began to strike from 11:59 p.m. local time on the 18th, involving a collective strike by GM workers in 33 manufacturing plants and 22 warehouses in the United States.

Their demand for strike is also very simple, that is, GM is not allowed to go bankrupt, nor is it allowed to fire workers, pay wages as soon as possible, raise wages by the way, and reduce working hours every month!

It is understood that in 2007, a total of 73000 GM workers went on strike for 54 days, with a daily loss of more than $300 million.
