Age of Dreams
Vol 2 Chapter 1978: Preemptive again
The US government is boiling again.
Their life is not easy now, but the Chinese government has made it worse.
On Friday, August 19, U.S. Eastern Time, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce held a press conference to announce that it would launch a double-reverse investigation on the vehicles exported to China by the three major US automobile companies, Ford, General Motors, and Chrysler. If the double-reverse investigation is established, Then at least 150%-300% of taxes will be raised.
In addition, the Ministry of Commerce of China will conduct technology monopoly investigations, malicious sales price restrictions investigations, and repair parts price manipulation investigations on the joint ventures of the three major US auto companies in China based on the report. A huge fine was issued.
While meeting here, the joint ventures of the capital, Dongfang, Guangdong, Yuzhou, etc. over there were all of the three major automobile companies' joint ventures. Suddenly, the Department of Commerce and tax officials came to visit and blocked their Computers, ledgers, etc., and then moved all these things back to the Department of Commerce and the Tax Bureau.
At this time, I shook the hearts of people in the American auto industry.
Everyone knows that the biggest point of profit in the automotive industry is no longer the sold cars themselves, but has gradually shifted to after-sales services, maintenance, and so on.
Someone has done a survey, the world's top ten auto manufacturers, after-sales maintenance in China, if you replace all the parts, then the price will be between 280%-540% of the price of your car, which is simply a huge profit. Profiteering in!
If you add in the dumbfounding and expensive working hours, then this price even makes foreigners who earn US dollars and euros feel distressed.
This is also understandable, why so many Chinese are willing to buy Japanese cars.
It's not that they like Japanese cars, but Japanese cars are durable. As long as there is no accident, they can be used smoothly for three to five years. Basically no maintenance is needed.
Okay, the topic pulled back.
American car companies have had a hard time in these years.
The domestic market is dominated by a large number of Japanese and European cars. The sales of expensive and bulky American cars have been declining year by year.
The Chinese market with a population of 1.5 billion is the market that American car companies attach the most importance to development, and they have spent time in China over the years.
Although it is still inferior to the masses alone. However, the two companies of GM and Ford can still stabilize the Volkswagen. In the past two years, they have even firmly put all the Japanese companies under their hands, and contributed a large amount of profits to the head office.
In contrast, the Chinese government imposes anti-dumping duties and countervailing duties on the export vehicles of the three major auto companies, which is of little importance.
Most of the imported cars purchased by China are high-end imported cars, but these cars are generally owned by companies such as Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Ferrari, and Porsche. GM, Ford, and Chrysler export less than 50,000 vehicles to China each year.
What about an increase of 150%-300% for 50,000 vehicles? Not much more!
But the factories of the three major domestic automobile companies in China, not to mention too much, alone, Orient General Motors, the sales volume this year may reach 450,000 vehicles, if investigations and penalties are carried out against this company, it will be GM's. Old life!
and. According to the news from the Chinese side, the Chinese government is preparing to commit a murderous attack this time. Directly fine each company 10 billion U.S. dollars, which will set a record for a single fine in automobile history!
GM and Ford got big heads as soon as they heard it, but Chrysler burst into tears: I sold only 50,000 vehicles in your country a year, and you fined me 10 billion US dollars. I have been busy for ten years!
The three companies hurriedly met, and in any case they could not let the Chinese do that. We must let the government put pressure on them.
But before they acted, the Chinese censorship department had already released the news. They had a large amount of evidence that did prove that the three joint ventures were suspected of technology monopoly, malicious restrictions on sales prices, and price manipulation of repair parts.
The three car companies immediately weakened their voices, and they dared not put any pressure on the government.
Because what people say is the truth.
Just like what Yu Chengsheng told Xiao Qi. All the car companies are doing the above things, in fact, even the car companies in China are doing the same.
But the problem is that there are some things that can be done but cannot be said.
Once it was said, there would be no covering cloth.
No matter how courageous American car companies are, it is impossible to say "Europeans are the same as Japanese, why do you only arrest me"... Just like trade sanctions, cheap goods from Southeast Asia, South America and Africa are sold to the United States. , Why are you only targeting China?
When a country is determined to deal with you, it won’t work for you! !
If they are tougher, then when the Chinese government puts out the evidence, they will be stinky, and they may go bankrupt directly.
According to the Chinese government's aggressiveness against American agriculture last time, they dare not try the bottom line of the Chinese government.
People are like this, persimmon specifically points to a soft pinch.
Since there is no way to deal with China thousands of miles away, they can only deal with the domestic government.
So on the morning of Sunday, August 21st, 300,000 workers from 11 production bases of the three major U.S. automobile companies held a massive demonstration together, demanding that the government address the difficulties of the Chinese government this time, otherwise the three major The car company collapsed, and they were about to sit at the gate of the government.
The US government is actually very annoyed.
The three automobile companies of General Motors, Ford and Chrysler were already unbreakable because of heavy salary burdens and operating costs.
If the Chinese government makes such another move, the three major auto companies will undoubtedly collapse.
But you can't say that people are making trouble unreasonably. This kind of thing is a clear fact, just as the US government fined Toyota, Honda, and Nissan billions of dollars when it was happy.
For this reason, Obama, who was in the most tense period of the campaign, asked Niu Ruzheng about the news.
Obama and Niu Ru have a good relationship, but Niu Ruzheng still went around a long way before telling Obama the reason.
Entering the second half of this year, Obama's soaring into the sky has been unstoppable. Almost everyone is sure that the next American president will be this black man with a bright smile.
Therefore, Niu Ruzheng also deliberately sold him a favor.
It is true that everyone will deceive each other for their own interests in the future, but a good personal relationship can still play a role in some unimportant things.
But Obama was not easy to do this time.
The reason is simple. This time, the main public relations lobby of the US business community wants to exert strong pressure on Congress to get the government to protest against China and urge them to let the yuan appreciate as soon as possible.
,?
Of course, Obama reported the matter to the report immediately to see how they decided in the end.
However, how can someone with such a bad mind as Xiao Qi let Americans take the initiative?
Soon, their candidate stood up.
"I can hardly imagine that some people deliberately ignore the interests of another part of the voters in order to please some voters. We should take care of everyone's interests. No one should make sacrifices. We always have a better life. The way to solve it, not to please someone!"
"The last time we dealt with Chinese people, we suffered. As a result, our relationship with the Chinese government has gradually eased. But the efforts we have made in the past few months now seem to be in vain! Because of this. A group of stupid politicians! I dare not say that they did not take advantage, but this situation is not normal! Yes, it is not normal!"
"Think about it, if we leave such a party in power in the next four years, how much harm will it do to us? The economy of the entire United States is going backwards. We have not yet established a good relationship with China and increased exports. , To increase income, and in turn to offend China to death, is simply stupid!"
This candidate is just the one who shows up the most,?
, Senior congressmen ~www.readwn.com~ even Bush Jr. jumped out, opening his always big mouth.
They hurriedly produced a series of evidence. On the one hand, they were prepared to sue these people for talking nonsense. On the other hand, they tried to clarify that they were not messing up. The current idea is only in the design stage and has no intention of implementation.
The appreciation of the renminbi is indeed what the United States expects, but if Obama loses the election because of this because of the bones of the presidential election, no matter how much the renminbi appreciates.
,,, and actively get in touch with the Chinese government, so that they will not make trouble and ruin their good situation.
The economy is not working well, the financial industry is faltering, the demonstrations are uncontrollable...
The already messy situation in the United States, after so much tossing back and forth, seems to have become even more chaotic, which seems to prove that now is an eventful period! (To be continued, please search, the novel is better and updated faster!
