Chapter 973 Next Position
"FAW responded to the letter and they decided to introduce Chrysler and Audi at the same time."
"What?!"
About a week later, in December 1987, Carter met Lee Jae-yong, who had hurriedly arrived outside the camp, and a letter he had brought to help deliver it.
He grabbed the letter and after reading it, Carter felt like he had shot himself in the foot.
When I mentioned that a car was not suitable for the future development of domestically produced cars and could easily monopolize the market, or at least it would create a strong inducement in consumer psychology, the Chinese representatives went back to think about it and found that it made sense.
!
In this case, what about the brand? Is it easy for a brand to cause similar problems?!
Ever since, it became their idea to introduce Audi and Chrysler together!
After all, according to the current conditions offered by both parties.
For Chrysler, whether it is the Dodge 600 production line or the Chrysler 300C production line, the upfront cost is almost 0. Their budget is still enough to just take the Audi 100 stock parts as usual, and then introduce two more production lines. There is no problem. As for
Chrysler 300C requires annual sales of no less than 10,000 units.
If we don’t look at the domestic selling price, we only look at the foreign exchange that needs to be consumed. Just buying some spare parts for the Chrysler 300C that must be ordered from the American factory. It costs US$5,000 to buy a car. In terms of consumption of foreign exchange reserves, it is only a small amount in the beginning.
Fifty million U.S. dollars. In fact, even the necessary items don’t cost that much.
As the technology is gradually adopted and the degree of localization increases, this part of the expenditure will gradually decrease.
"Yes, it's good to have such a situation. That's it. I'd rather you reply to them for me and say that I will take care of this matter as soon as possible."
"Okay, I understand. But haven't you already used up your leave?"
"It's been two years, it's time to transfer. Just think of a way and transfer back!"
Standing at the entrance of the camp, Carter stretched out the hem of his uniform. He was also mentally contemplating his next step.
According to the U.S. military's convention of one post every two years, his transfer period is actually about to come. In addition, the minimum service years for a lieutenant is about to arrive. In my case, it will only be 1988 when he will be promoted to captain.
Then a key point of choice comes!
Do you want to stay in the army in the future?
If you retire in 1989 after completing the four-year service period, it actually doesn’t matter where you go next. But if you want to continue working for a while, then after reaching the captain level, a KD position, which is a key responsibility position, will become
Now Carter needs to consider fighting for the position!
No, we can’t talk about striving for it. We can only say that it depends on whether you want it or not.
"Aren't you going to stay in Korea any longer? What about me, Yin Xin?"
"There is nothing left for me to continue to do here in Korea. When the Itaewon business district renovation project starts next year, I will acquire a large shopping mall location there and hand over the construction and property management behind it."
Just let us do it together."
Thinking about the problems in South Korea, in the past two years, everything that can be done has been basically done. Next, it is time to do something of my own.
"As for Yin Xin, it's not like you haven't seen the attitude of my family before. Wait two years to confirm. Even if you change her nationality to the United States, you need the consent of both parents to get married. My mother's side is now
She still can’t accept a child as her daughter-in-law.”
"There's nothing wrong with the sale of the M60. That tank doesn't have many applications of advanced technology. I know it's easy to talk to the Senate now. I'll say hello to Mr. Speaker for you later!"
It's not easy to talk.
If it weren't for the fact that the Senate is now in the hands of the Republican Party, Carter would not have the confidence. When he first took over Chrysler, he promised to use the M60, a land warfare system that is outdated for the United States but is considered advanced for most countries.
The equipment is sold!
However, next year’s general election is around the corner, so this matter must be done as soon as possible to prevent long nights and nightmares!
"Thank you, brother! In addition, there is one more thing. I would like to ask for your opinion. My service time in the Eighth Army will soon reach the standard. Regarding the next step,"
"What do you personally think?"
"I'm just a little confused, so I want to ask for your opinion. Before making this call, I also asked Rick. What he meant was, it depends on me. He himself plans to sign another term and work for eight years.
Years later, I will retire when I am 30 years old, and my words”
Carter made a profit
"I seem to be able to do it or not. There are less and less things I need to worry about in business. Most of the time, I just need to determine a direction and don't need to worry about the rest. Then I have a lot of personal time.
I have enough. It doesn’t matter whether I continue to serve in the army or go out and enjoy life! But I feel that I can play my role and be capable in the army.”
boring!
Yes, this is Carter's psychological remark that is difficult to express.
It is true that at the beginning, Carter's ambition was to work in the logistics department and become a great rat in the US military. But when he actually entered the logistics department, he realized, could this place make money?!
Can!
But it’s all small money!
For example, in the construction and repair of the barracks, it is no problem for me to have a place where I can intervene to facilitate my travels. But how much can I earn from that thing?!
For truly large-scale Ministry of National Defense procurement, there is no room for junior officers to interfere. It would be better to deepen ties with people like Lao Bu.
"Well, I should know where you should go! Since you come out to enjoy life, you are still young and you still have a long time to enjoy life. Let's work for a few years first! It will be good for you."
"Where? Oh, one more thing is that I want to apply for transfer back to China. There are some things that may require some running around."
"Don't worry, it's the Southern Command in China, going to Florida. Rick, let him come back and be with you. You two have been separated for several years. If we don't see each other again, it will inevitably become unfamiliar."
Florida, Southern Command?!
When these two keywords appeared at the same time, Carter suddenly thought of a possibility.
"Okay, I understand."
Carter nodded and didn't say much directly.
After all, both sides understand what should be understood.
When the words have made it clear, Lao Bu hopes to work in the army for a few more years. So, Lao Bu, who also has military experience, cannot possibly not understand the current promotion rules for US military officers.
The job arrangement he came to handle must be easy for promotion. Is it easy for promotion in Southern Command?
It’s definitely not easy to get promoted in that place!
The Southern Command can be called the smallest of the US military theaters! Although the so-called responsibilities sound bluffing, the defense scope includes Central and South America including the Caribbean Sea, in fact, its real role is to control the Panama Canal
Not only does the commander have the lowest military rank year-on-year, but the commander of the U.S. Forces in Korea is a lieutenant general, while the commander of the Southern Command is only a major general. The actual number of troops under his control is also pitiful!
After all, the US military in South Korea still has an infantry division, but what about here?
There is only one infantry battalion of the 193rd Brigade, plus the 7th Special Operations Group. There is not even a brigade in the entire battle.
There is only one situation where officers in Southern Command are easily promoted
That is war!
Chapter completed!
