With nearly 100 journalists of "Lance short gun", chapter male Toyota head rapidly towards its own location, however this low-key Toyota next-generation head will soon discover that he is not a trend of this country's VIP seating, and more on a "trial members".

"You have to hide car safety defects?" and "I feel embarrassed," "you have the nerve to boast this kind of success?" and "I do not see your sincere repentance" … 23, United States House of representatives oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing has become "denunciation", commanding the parliamentarians frequently Cannon, 53-year-old Toyota chapter men and more like a student do wrong, be careful to listen to the respondent, an open mind.

Before you begin to speak, Toyota chapter men were asked to raise your right hand and swear himself is true, but it is not clear when the oath is responsible for the United States Constitution or the Constitution of Japan. Because the Alliance called a foreign company to receive a hearing are rare, forcing their vows or little precedent.

About 100 more media will be crowded House of representatives hearing on the scene packed even the corridor is a long long couldn't get media team, a United States journalist laments even Hillary's hearings never has such a magnificent spectacle. In the face of live shots, Toyota chapter men and sincerely will blame on the company's rapid development that has always insisted on safety, quality and quantity of the principle of "confusion".

"We cannot do stop to think and make improvements, we listen to customer comments to build better quality car's basic position is somewhat shaken. We had fast development speed make Toyota unable to cultivate their own members and schema. "Toyota chapter man said:" we should recognize this ... I regret it. I have had exposure to Toyota owners to apologize. ”

"This is the meaning of" remorse, Congressman John ・ El can hold high the banner of Toyota's an internal document, the file is successfully convinced the United States Government to reduce the size of recall to save 1 million. "I'm embarrassed for you!" he said.

However, with the advance of the hearing, some members had let people hear out the lines. Congressman Paul Kanjorski ・ will question the level up to the "Japan manufacturing", claiming that the "manufacture" let Japan United States people are injured. And Congressman Cummings, the more straightforward: "in economic hard times, why the United States who have to be hard-earned money on Toyota?"

At the same time, the official United States forces also extend into the Japan Automobile enterprises, members of Congress to Toyota chapter male arguments at the same time, the FBI has announced that it has a search on the same day for Toyota sales company in the United States Office. While previously, United States Federal District Court in the southern part of New York State federal grand jury has issued a summons to Toyota, which means that the United States is likely to pursue Toyota's criminal liability for a foreign company, this is rare.

Some critics believe that the United States Government and civil society on Toyota's "round" of intended to rescue their automobile giant. Not long ago, Toyota in the United States dominated, drove United States local of generic, Ford car giant no way out, meekly surrendered the first position in the world. Now Toyota has fallen well, save the auto industry must not suffer from the United States Government law who let the good time under the stone?

Data from one side to support the United States settlement Toyota effect. According to statistics, Toyota sales in the United States in January fell by 16%, GM, Ford, respectively increased by 24%, 16%. Toyota's market capitalization has evaporated 300 billion, the global automotive industry occupies a leading position in multinational companies, are facing total destruction.

Some extent, Toyota is encountered is a United States "robbery", if you are unable to calm the wrath of United States persons, then its a nightmare will be just beginning. Currently, Toyota has spent substantial lobbying team eastward from Capitol Hill, and Toyota chapter men this field hearings, it is considered a Toyota-the final redemption.

Apology, apology, again apologize! car Toyota, President of Toyota chapter male 24 Sunrise now United States Congressional hearings, in the most respectful attitude to accept United States members of the "bombard". This has always been reserved "Prince" even in Toyota's cries.

Toyota chapter men into hearings when a site has the camera shutter sound.

Into the seat back, he was sworn in their hands, that hearing the truth.

The hearings began, he used English to driving Toyota car accident pilots expressed "deep regret". Interrogation program began, he switched to Japanese, answer the questions by translation.

It is reported that Toyota quality problems, the United States has found similar death case apart from 30. In Toyota global recall of 850 million of vehicles, about 600 million units in the United States market.

Throughout the United States Congressional hearings, Toyota's strategy in general there are two: first, apologize, responsibility and accept criticism; second, the commitment to improve vehicle safety performance in order to restore consumer confidence and resolve external dissatisfaction and hostility.

But in the face of Toyota's humble posture, United States Congressman still strongly rebuke Toyota disregarded safety, lack of responsibility, some victims of motor vehicle Toyota problem that sad, even more tears on the spot.

The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee member Kanjorski said: "apology not enough, he had to say more, we have the question asked of him. ”

The House Oversight and government reform , Chairman of the Committee (Gallery Forum) Townes at hearings rebuke Toyota always ignored or try to delay problem-solving, and attempted to light instead of them. He also rapped accused said: "there is evidence that the company (Toyota) always more concerned about profit, not the consumer safety. ”

In 24 days of hearings, Toyota, Toyota chapter men admit past importance of the first one is the safety and quality, the third is the quantity, but in the past few years, the expansion of Toyota in numbers too quickly "," lead to Toyota ignores these three options in the order.

United States consumers on Toyota chapter men "papers," how to "them" was not clear.

This may be a Han Desheng (Fritz Henderson) career most "low-key" period.

Recently, this reporter from General Motors confirmed that, in General Motors Corp., Whitaker (Ed Whitacre) official "regularization" CEO thereafter, he was appointed by former CEO Han Desheng as universal international operations Advisor.

However, for this new appointment, General Motors has not officially announced, but only in a public enterprise.

2009 December 1, the Board accepted the resignation of General Motors in Korean Desheng Board of Directors, General Motors executives and General Motors CEO job request. This sudden changes have made media speculation over a variety of reasons, but today, Han Desheng suddenly be reappointed, its role in the conversion, once again aroused a wave of doubts.

"Advisor"

"Now Han Desheng each month only work over ten hours, often not in the Office, what we do, we have no idea. "GM's staff says. But a spokesman for General Motors, and Han Desheng signed the consultation agreement because he was in the company's international business areas have no-one can out to the right professional. Han Desheng consultation will run throughout the year, monthly need work about 20 hours.

GM of international operations is indeed a challenging sector. July 2009, the general reorganization, in order to make the company more streamlined and efficient, universal abolition of the original structure of the regional business operations and the establishment of a General Motors international operations (GMIO), located in Shanghai, and manpower management common in Asia Pacific, Latin America, Africa and Middle East business operations.

While Han Desheng has indeed has extensive experience in the world. He entered the 1984 General Motors, once in 1997 ~ 2000 years, served as General Motors Vice President and Chief Executive of the Brazil business unit; in 2000, serving as GM Group Vice President and GM Latin America, Africa and Middle East Division Chief; in 2002, he was transferred to Singapore as General Motors Asia Pacific Marketing Department Chief; in 2004, responsible for General Motors Europe business operations.

General Motors is an urgent need to open up more markets outside of Europe and the United States, Europe and the "subsidy", then a loss of experienced personnel is essential. While Han Desheng would come to Shanghai, General Motors does not provide an answer.

Contradictions

But the truth is not like surface looks so calm.

That was then, for the resignation of Han Desheng, Whitaker on a statement commending the Han Desheng's performance: "through the work of Han Desheng, leading through an unprecedented period of challenge and change. ”

Having said that, but Han Desheng and Whitaker contradictions or unable to hide.

In February, a branding for Han Desheng daughter "Sara Hahn Ruby" friends in the most popular social networking site Facebook's General Motors AC page statements that Whitacre quit Han Desheng is a selfish decisions themselves will no longer pay the General company of anything. We've got a lot of foul language and wording.

Whether this really is the daughter of Han Desheng "vent", article by General Motors quickly deleted. But the fact is, Whitaker and contradictions of Han Desheng a long time, this expression is behind political demands.

General Motors Vice President Bob Mroz (Bob Lutz) has no secret that Han Desheng just a political victims. "The new Board of Directors reflecting the will of the Government of the United States, in the hope that the new common to new initiatives and a new look to change through personnel changes to allow everyone to feel this change. No one is doing the wrong thing. ”

And finally the "break" of fuse is Opel.

For Opel, the Board of Directors and management have different views. In Han Desheng as CEO, the new Universal's first task is to pay off debts, the United States Government also fell to privatization. So, we can only sell Opel, which retain the brand to invest significant funds. But over time, the demand for repayment does not think there is an urgent, the Board of Directors believes that the strategic Opel as an important brand need to be retained.

Thus, in the Opel issues not handled properly

The Board of Directors of the "win" Han Desheng's catalyst.

Compromise

Now, General Board of Directors and as consultant for Han Desheng, what resolution the Whittaker "knot"? of course not "Sara Hahn Ruby" and "abuse". Industry insiders speculate, Han Desheng's popularity and the ability to work or General Motors is currently needed.

And Wagner (CEO Han Desheng predecessor universal) is Obama ordered the resignation, Han Desheng is determined by resolution of the Board of Directors of the class, so there is more room for salvage. In fact, General Motors, Han Desheng also owns some of the fans, "has the ability to do things seriously," is the staff's assessment of the ROK Desheng.

In General Motors work decades, Han Desheng has a "cost killer", reform is very sharp.

April 1, 2009 when he took office, Han Desheng given reform measures not only lasted until some of Wagner 's, such as reduced costs, streamline the brand, its "weight loss" program more radical: new universal weight loss plan including General Motors will be shut down before the end of 2011, or discontinued 14 factory, closed December 2009 3 home parts distribution center, layoffs 2.1 million people, the improvement of existing products of fuel economy, ensure universal every car launch success over the next 18 months, the United States in general are domestic and overseas market 10 and 17 models, reduction brand as Cadillac, Buick, GM Chevrolet, C4 (Gallery Forum).

Media community that, in fact, Han Desheng for General Motors out of bankruptcy protection of shadow or contribute, in South Korea took over common Desheng 230 days, has been trying various solutions to difficult situations, including streamlined brand, cut costs, the strategic focus shifts to China, India, Brazil and Russia market etc.

Perhaps it was the initiative properly, that makes Whitaker reiterates its request to the Han Desheng "mountain". As for the Korean Desheng far, nobody can speak clearly.
