At present, the COVID-19 epidemic is raging around the world. As of 19 o 'clock on March 28, more than 52 cases and 24,000 deaths had been confirmed in 199 countries and regions except China. The situation of epidemic prevention and control is very grim.When the epidemic broke out in China, numerous enterprises, large and small, responded quickly and made active adjustments to meet the needs of the epidemic. So what did overseas automobile enterprises do?
"As usual, GM never seems to get it right," President Trump tweeted.They said they would soon be able to supply us with 40,000 of the ventilators we need, but now they say they only have 6,000 by the end of April and they want the highest price.Mary Bora [CEO of GM] always makes a mess of things."
The move comes after the New York Times reported that GM and Ventec Life Systems were hoping to secure more than $1 billion in government funding, with hundreds of millions of dollars in advance for GM to retrofit a parts company to make ventilators.
Mr. Trump announced that he would use the Defense Production Act to force GENERAL Motors to make ventilators.Under the law, the President has the power to require private companies to produce defense-related products during a state of emergency and to control their distribution.Gm reluctantly agreed to build 200,000 ventilators with Ventec Life Systems.At the same time, Mr Trump "urged" Ford to make a ventilator.
At the other end of the market, The CEO of Volkswagen, Herbert Diess, is the target of a lot of criticism.The reason was its public "complaint" that only The Chinese market contributed to VW group's revenues at a time when the epidemic was unfolding, while other markets did not.
So far, Volkswagen has resumed production in China, while factories in Europe, The Americas and elsewhere have all but closed.If the epidemic is not contained in other regions, as it is in China, vw is likely to lay off workers, since those regions face huge fixed costs of at least 2 billion euros (15.8 billion yuan) a week without revenue, Deess said.In the worst case, even "structural measures" will be taken to adjust.
It's not hard to see how people feel about the CEO's comments from netizens.Obviously, gm and Volkswagen are not satisfied with their practices and attitudes towards the epidemic, and they are not consistent with their corporate image and status.
Chinese auto companies, on the other hand, almost all offer their help in the first time. They not only donate money and goods, but even take the initiative to transform production lines to produce the goods needed by people. Wuling is one of them.
In the early days, Wuling was almost one of the first auto companies to "transform" the production of masks. In a very short time, the masks were produced and sent to places in urgent need of supplies.We can see the responsibility and responsibility of a car company.
Recently, Wuling once again entered people's vision, and this time wuling brought unexpectedly is snail noodle.Wuling, which is based in Liuzhou, its home town, and has seen a surge in consumer demand for the noodles, said they were once out of stock and won't be available until April.Wuling this move, is undoubtedly to solve the urgent needs of the people.And from the "origin" of the taste, I believe it must be very authentic.
Of course, Wuling is not relying on these "lace" to earn gimmicks, its Wuling light, Wuling Hongguang and other models have long been all over China.J.D. Power recently released the first auto Insurance Rate Research Report in China in 2020.Saic-gm-wuling won the first place in the auto insurance rate of its own brand, with a three-year insurance rate of 52.9%, and is the only auto company whose three-year insurance rate exceeds 50%.Thus it can be seen that wuling's ability is in direct proportion to its responsibility and has been fully demonstrated.
