Chapter 404: A little embarrassing

The entrance to the lobby of the AMC headquarters was crowded.

At a glance, there were at least three or four hundred people at the scene, except for the staff who wore AMC's standard uniforms and looked like they were used to maintain order and provide essential services, and almost all of them were reporters with long guns and short guns.

Jack Welch stood behind the podium temporarily placed at the door, first glanced at the reporters in front of him, and then slowly said: "Hello journalists, thank you for coming, I believe that all of you journalists know me and some don't know me, in order to let everyone have a deeper impression of me, and also be familiar with me, I will introduce myself again: I am Jack Welch, the chairman and CEO of AMC Motors."

I believe you have already known the purpose of inviting you to attend the press conference of our AMC car today, after all, both media friends and the public have been very, very concerned about our AMC car during this time...... Well, the Pentagon cares about us too......"

Speaking of which, Jack Welch shook his wit slightly.

Sure enough, the reporters were very appreciative, and as soon as Jack Welch's words fell, the reporters at the scene suddenly laughed: The big guy doesn't "care" about AMC cars, so it's not just a concern, that's just a big concern.

Jack Welch was also laughing, laughing, and he gestured slightly to the reporters in front of him: "So, as you think, the only reason why we at AMC Motors invited you to this press conference today is to respond to the current question that everyone is concerned about: Can AMC provide our army with a qualified HMMV military vehicle?"

Of course, I'm sure people won't believe me boasting here, no way, who made me the chairman and CEO of AMC Motors, right?"

After saying that, he shrugged helplessly.

The reporters burst into laughter, not even knowing which guy was whistling: Jack Welch's self-deprecating press conference made the uncrowned kings present very comfortable.

Jack Welch was also very satisfied with the effect of his words, and when the reporters gradually quieted down, he smiled and said: "Since I said it doesn't count, then who has the final say? It's very simple, of course our user: the Pentagon." ”

Speaking of this, he turned sideways slightly, raised his hand and pointed to the soldier wearing the uniform of brigadier general next to him, and signaled to the reporters present: "Let me introduce to you solemnly, the person standing next to me is the assistant to the Deputy Minister of Procurement, Technology and Logistics of the Ministry of National Defense: Mr. Louis Michael Roy, who is also the head of the investigation team sent by the Ministry of Defense......"

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

Before Jack Welch could finish speaking, hundreds of flashing lights flashed at Louis Michael Roy, who was standing next to Jack Welch!

Everyone knows that the Ministry of Defense made a statement at the previous press conference, saying that it would send an investigation team to investigate whether the AMC car is not fully capable of producing a qualified HMMV military vehicle, as the media feared, but no one expected that the Pentagon sent the investigation team would be of such a high standard, and their head turned out to be the assistant to the deputy secretary in charge of procurement, technology and logistics!

Some people will wonder, is it just an assistant to a deputy minister, and the level is very high?

The answer is...... Very high!

Under normal circumstances, when the Ministry of Defense conducts an investigation of the supply enterprise, the leader of the investigation team sent by the Ministry of Defense will not exceed the rank of colonel at the highest, but in actual operation, it is almost impossible to send a colonel, basically led by a lieutenant colonel and a major, but the one in front of him is a brigadier general!

For this matter, the Pentagon sent an investigation team led by a brigadier general, who dares to say that the Pentagon does not pay attention to this matter?!

This is taken to the bone.

"Now, I would like to invite His Excellency Brigadier General Louis Michael Roy to announce the results of the investigation!" said Jack Welch, who immediately took a step back and gave up his position to Brigadier General Louis Michael Roy, who was in straight uniform.

"Hello fellow journalists," Louis Michael Roy said as he stood in front of the podium, nodded to the reporters present, and then said: "According to the investigation team, AMC will hand over the production of all HMMV military vehicles to its subsidiary AM General, which is mainly engaged in government and postal services, or JEEP.

After conducting an actual investigation of the production status of AM General and conducting satisfaction surveys and analyses of its main customers, the investigation team believes that AM General is fully capable of producing HMMV military vehicles, and the Ministry of Defense believes that AM General will be able to produce HMMV military vehicles of acceptable and excellent quality for the military.

In summary, after a rigorous investigation of AM General, orders for HMMV military vehicles will continue to be fulfilled by AM General, an independent subsidiary of AMC. ”

........................

Looking at the overwhelming reports in the newspapers that the Pentagon would continue to hand over orders for HMMV military vehicles to AMC, Lee Iacoca's face was very ugly.

Not only was Lee Iacoca's face not good-looking, but the faces of the members of his team were not good-looking, and they were scolding "Vako!" and "Bichi!" in their mouths...... Of course, they have enough reasons to be dissatisfied, in order to stumble on AMC Motors and Fernandez Chen, Chrysler Motors has spent no less than $500,000 on "special public relations funds" during this time, and the big guys are full of confidence in pulling AMC down, but no one expected that it would be such a result, and it was true that such a result was spent at such a big cost, and they naturally couldn't accept it in their hearts.

Speaking of it, it can be regarded as a group of emotions, but listening to the scolding in the room is just a few sentences, compared to Huaxia, which has already formed a "scolding culture" and scolding you for a few hours, it is too monotonous.

"Alright, shut up......"

In the midst of the scolding, Lee Iacocca suddenly spoke.

“......”

Under the gaze of his old brothers in his team, Lee Iacocca said slowly: "From the beginning, I didn't expect to be able to snatch the production qualification of the HMMV military vehicle from Fernandez in this way...... Do you really think that you can snatch your qualifications by making a few rumors? Are you overestimating your own energy, or are you underestimating the old-fashioned nature of bureaucrats? Or do you think that AMC, Fernandez, and Jack Welch are rookies who have nothing to do in the face of an attack of this magnitude?

Joke!

If he can't even attack this level, what qualifications does he have to create such a career? What qualifications does he have to take over GE with Jack Welch?"
