\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 It is reported that a potential investor from the commercial vehicle industry has withdrawn the letter of intent. The above -mentioned spokesman said, “The factory has no potential investors, so the active finding investors’ work has ended.” The current focus is to discuss the layoff plan. According to the spokesman, the working group who found other possibilities for the factory hopes to find a feasible solution. It can solve the problem in the short term and retain as many jobs as possible, but it has not succeeded.<\/p>\n

The massive capacity of Volkswagen Group’s German factories has forced the Volkswagen brand to consider closing the German factories for the first time and cancel signed a 30 -year work security agreement with employees. Audi is reorganizing several departments to speed up decision -making and launch new models faster.<\/p>\n<\/article>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
