Rebirth 1979: Hunting wild boars and saving educated youth

Dawson hung up the phone and returned to the conference room with a gloomy face.

He looked at the senior executives and said solemnly, "Everyone, our company may be embroiled in a racial discrimination crisis. We must immediately launch an internal investigation to identify the problem and resolve this crisis."

There was a sudden silence in the conference room, and everyone realized the seriousness of the problem.

So all the senior executives who were in the meeting took action and began to investigate the entire company, but they couldn't find any clues after searching for a long time.

During this period, they were under increasing pressure, including calls from the California Bar Association, the California Automobile Chamber of Commerce, the EEOC, the FTC, and private consumer rights protection agencies.

Dawson was overwhelmed.

Although these institutions could not have a direct impact on their company all at once, this invisible pressure made him almost breathless.

He was full of anxiety, but he still didn't know what went wrong in the company.

Just when Dawson was getting desperate, a GM dealer finally called him and pointed out the problem: "It seems that the Los Angeles dealership has offended an Asian customer. A customer went to your store to buy a car, and was discriminated against by your salesperson!"

"That Asian customer has a lot of connections. Buddy, I'm not going to hide it from you. GM is already reconsidering your company's dealership status. Hurry and get this sorted out, or this thing could get bigger than you think!"

Dawson was shocked when he heard this.

GM is the dominant force in the American auto industry. If GM does not cooperate with them, it is likely to trigger a series of chain reactions, causing other auto companies to reconsider their dealer qualifications.

Even if it is not banned, they will be in an extremely passive situation in future negotiations. In short, the company's interests will be greatly affected!

Dawson was filled with anger and immediately called Los Angeles.

After some tense and urgent questioning and understanding, the store where the problem occurred and the person responsible were finally identified.

Veins popped out on his forehead as he yelled at the other end of the phone, "Richard, what the hell did you do to cause this huge trouble for the company?"

On the other end of the phone, Richard was trembling with fear, his voice shaking as he tried to explain, but Dawson didn't want to listen at all. "Find those two customers immediately, apologize to them sincerely, and then prepare to accept the company's severe punishment!"

Dawson hung up the phone angrily, took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then asked his secretary to book him a flight to Los Angeles.

In Los Angeles, Richard broke out in a cold sweat after hanging up the phone, feeling extremely regretful.

He cursed himself inwardly, "How could I be so blind and misjudged! I never imagined those two Asian clients would be so powerful and influential that they could even alert the chairman. If I had known this would happen, I would never have let things develop to this point!"

At the same time, he hated Sandra to death and complained in his heart: "This woman is really harmful to others!"

Richard went downstairs in a hurry and asked the saleswoman Sandra to go with him to apologize to the customer.

Sandra, however, crossed her arms and said with a look of disdain, "I'm not going! I didn't say anything outrageous. They're just being overly sensitive! I was just following the normal procedures to introduce the car. They asked a lot of questions, and I patiently answered them. In the end, they didn't buy, and they blamed me for my bad attitude. Isn't that unreasonable? Besides, I just casually mentioned a few words about the Asian market. How can that be considered discrimination? They took it personally. Can you blame me?"

Richard flew into a rage and yelled, "Go tell the chairman this! He just called me personally and said this has had a huge impact on the company. Even officials from the EEOC and CCRD have called him. Do you think our union can stand up to them? If you don't apologize, you'll be sued!"

Hearing this, Sandra was stunned and said in disbelief, "How is this possible? How could a yellow monkey have such great power?"

Hearing this, Richard flew into a rage. His eyes widened, veins popped out on his forehead, and he yelled again, "What are you talking about?! Oh my God! You still say there is no racial discrimination? How can such vicious words come out of your mouth?"

Sandra was frightened by Richard's anger. She had never seen Richard so out of control, and only then did she realize the seriousness of the matter.

Her face turned pale and she began to regret. Richard saw that she was wavering, so he grabbed her arm and dragged her towards the client.

Richard dragged Sandra into his car and began looking in car dealerships one after another in Los Angeles.

Apart from this, they had no other way to find the two Asian customers and could only bet that they were still shopping for cars in other stores.

At this time, Chen Feng and Ning Yao were at the Chevrolet dealership under General Motors.

It was Shmuel who was with them, explaining the car models to them.

Shmuel hugged Chen Feng and said excitedly, "Hey, Corvette! This is Chevrolet's premium sports car brand and a national treasure of the United States. It's named after a 17th-century British gunboat, intended to challenge the popular British sports cars of the time. When I was at GM, this car was my trump card. This is the newly released C4 model, and it's even more suitable for you."

Chen Feng also likes this car. It has a square line design and four round lights, which looks very American!

It’s common in American blockbusters of this era, and the dynamics are pretty good.

So he asked Ning Yao for his opinion. Ning Yao seemed to like it and said, "This car is nice, but it looks very expensive!"

Chen Feng chuckled and said, "I can afford your husband!"

He was about to ask the GM saleswoman about the price when a surprised voice suddenly came from outside the door, "Guests, I finally found you!"

Chen Feng and Ning Yao turned around when they heard the voice and saw Richard and Sandra, their faces suddenly darkened.

Richard walked forward quickly with a smile on his face, while Sandra behind him looked a little reluctant and lowered her head.

Richard quickly said, "Dear guests, I am extremely sorry for what happened in our store. It was our staff's poor service and bad attitude. On behalf of our store, I offer you my sincerest apologies."

"We hope both customers can forgive us!"
