It's no wonder that Chen Geng is foul-mouthed, but the content of the newspaper in his hand is too sensational: AMC, one of the four major automobile manufacturers in the United States, resigned in anger because the entire management resigned en masse because it couldn't stand the torture of workers and trade unions!

It has always been the management that forced the workers to resign, and in the legends and books, the working class has always been the object of bullying and oppression.

"Boss......" Mirren asked in a whisper.

Although her words were only half spoken, Chen Geng understood what she meant,

That's AMC, although among the four major American automakers, the big four are the big four, and even if they are the last one, it is also the big four! But AMC, one of the four major automakers in the United States, was forced by its own workers to the extent that the entire management had to resign en masse?

This matter is too big, this news will definitely replace the "love and kill" between the National Guard, the Pentagon, and Congress, and become the absolute news hotspot in the next period of time...... Over the years, the trade unions have become more and more powerful, their power has swelled a little too much, and the erosion of the interests of the capitalists has aroused the extreme dissatisfaction of the capitalists.

Chen Geng nodded: "Help me contact Miss Rosemary, just say that after the opening ceremony here, I need to talk to her on the phone when I go back." ”

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

"Have you read today's newspaper?" Chen Geng asked immediately as soon as the phone was connected.

"Look," Rosemary asked impatiently, not even asking how the computer hypermarket was opening today, "how much do you think this will affect AMC, and how much impact will it have on the American auto industry?"

"These workers of AMC, it's over!" Chen Geng said without hesitation: "From now on, there will be no more companies employing these workers of AMC, and this matter will become the center of public opinion and the eye of the storm in the United States, if nothing else, there will be a powerful force to unite and promote the formation of regulations that limit the power of the guild." ”

"Hmm. Rosemary replied, but did not retort.

It is true that when things have developed to this extent, the capitalists in the United States, especially around Detroit, have labeled these workers of AMC as "Diaomin".

In some things, the capitalists are very united, they can fight each other to the death, they can swallow each other, but when it comes to the workers, they are very consistent: they must work together to protect the interests of the capitalist class, and those workers who threaten the interests of the capitalists should let them die.

Obviously, these workers of the AMC have violated the limits of the capitalists, and they will definitely not hesitate to take this opportunity to make an example...... In any case, there has never been a shortage of industrial workers in the United States.

"As for the impact of this incident on AMC...... I think there's a high chance that AMC will go bankrupt. ”

"Do you think AMC will go bankrupt?" Rosemary was startled by her boss's words, "No way, right?"

Again, even if AMC's current market share is almost negligible, AMC is still AMC after all, one of the four major automakers in the United States, with assets of more than $2 billion, and such a large company will go bankrupt?

Rosemary couldn't have imagined that such a thing could actually happen.

"Unless AMC can find at least $120 million in capital injection in a month, AMC is dead," Chen Geng asserted, "but do you think AMC will be able to find so much money in a month with AMC now that even the banks refuse to lend them money?"

At one time, AMC chose to let the French Renault Group control in exchange for Renault Group's injection of $90 million in funds, but that was when AMC's M998 series prototype passed the test of the Ministry of Defense's HMMV project team, and the Chrysler Group was still struggling, the Chrysler "family" and Ford Victoria Crown two models did not exist at all, and the workers did not force the entire management to resign.

Now, the design work of the M998 has not yet been completed, but at this time, the prototype of Fernandez "hummer" has reached the second stage, and the design has not been completed, which means that AMC has completely lost the opportunity in the HMMV project!

The approach of AMC's workers and trade unions is to throw a stone on their graves: even if someone wants to cooperate with AMC, who would dare to provoke such a group of uncles who often force the company's management to resign?

Forget it, we can't hide if we can't afford to provoke us.

“......”

Rosemary couldn't say a word.

"What do you mean, AMC is dead?" asked Rosemary for a long time, her voice fluttering.

"99.99% chance it's dead. Chen Geng said affirmatively.

Rosemary was Rosemary after all, and immediately after the initial emotion, she asked, "What about ...... Let's ......"

Knowing what Rosemary meant, before she could finish speaking, Chen Geng said, "I've also thought about this issue, but it's not the time yet. ”

Isn't that the time?

Rosemary thought for a moment, and immediately understood: Yes, the current AMC can be said to have attracted the attention of the entire United States, even if Fernandez has any ideas for AMC, but now is really not the time to put these ideas into action...... But this does not prevent Fernandez from making a few more plans first.

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

Chen Geng still underestimated the degree of sensation caused by this incident in the United States, or rather, he still underestimated the degree of backlash from the capitalists against this incident.

At a time when the Soviet Union was not disintegrating but seemed to be thriving, when the entire capitalist society was tense from top to bottom that "the socialist Soviet Union is our mortal enemy", the pressure on the companies by the workers and workers of the AMC and the forced resignation of the management made it easy to associate this with the Red Soviets: the workers and trade unions of the AMC dared to do such a thing, and the Soviet Union must have supported it!

This seemingly absurd statement is not only very marketable in the American media and public opinion circles, but has even been recognized by countless ordinary people.

Thanks to the propaganda of the entire Western world demonizing the Soviet Union, communism and socialism for many years, all Westerners have basically the same view of communism and the Soviet Union: once the Soviet Union succeeds, everything we have now will be taken away and confiscated, everything we have now will cease to exist, and we will have to work like a slave for at least 12 hours a day to barely make ends meet, and as for the weekends, I can't even think about it......

So, the communist ideology exported by the USSR to the United States has reached such a serious level ?!

Under this trend of thought of "the Soviets are coming!", the entire media and the whole society were in a voice of "wolf is coming!", the capitalists and the middle class were all frightened, and while they were trembling with fright, people's minds were not so calm and rational, and countless demands for restricting the rights of trade unions were put forward (but no one was stupid enough to propose restricting the rights of workers, after all, it is ordinary people who form the cornerstone of American society), and even a number of senators openly shouted in the Senate: "An iron curtain of ideas must be formed!" ”

It was at this time that Chen Geng couldn't close his mouth with a smile: "It's gone!"

Rosemary also smiled from ear to ear, nodded heavily, and said, "It's done!"

It's really haired, except for the word "sent!", neither of them can think of any other word to describe the income of the computer city.

It's been two weeks since it opened, and the sales reports for the past two weeks show that the total sales performance of computer hypermarkets in six cities across the United States, including San Francisco, Detroit, Washington and New York, exceeded $340 million, and the gross profit of the hypermarket was $47.6 million, excluding rent, utilities, taxes, and labor...... and so on, the net profit is still more than 20 million US dollars, which means that the monthly profit is between 40 million and 45 million US dollars, which is scary!

And don't forget, a considerable part of these taxes can be offset in later development, if from this point of view, the profit is even more scary.

Although it is not accurate to calculate the average monthly sales due to the sensation caused by the opening of the new business and the fact that it has entered a stable period, in any case, one thing is certain, this computer hypermarket will become a cash cow for Fernandez...... No, it's not a cash cow anymore, it's a large dairy farm!

"Expand!" Rosemary said in a trembling voice, "Boss, we must expand the size of the computer hypermarket! Before anyone else can react, we must spread our hypermarket to all the big cities in the United States, all the big cities in Canada, and all the big cities in Europe...... It's just a money grab. ”

Chen Geng nodded heavily: in addition to grabbing money, he really couldn't find other adjectives to describe the speed of making money in hypermarkets. Taking a deep breath, Chen Geng said: "It is necessary to expand the scale of hypermarkets, but since this project is your master, I can't treat you badly......"

Hearing Chen Geng's words, Rosemary's heart suddenly jumped wildly: What does the boss mean by this......

"1%," Chen Geng said, "separate the hypermarket business and set up an independent subsidiary, and you own 1% of the non-transferable shares of this subsidiary......"

Rosemary only felt a rush of blood rushing to her temples, and her whole person seemed to float in the clouds: 1%? If the company's hypermarkets are located in major cities in North America and Europe, doesn't it mean that she will pay more than $100 million in dividends every year?!

PS: Computer hypermarkets and the computer industry are not the focus of this book, but this thing was too profitable in the early days, so let's just brush it off.
