Why do many American car companies go bankrupt and their car brands continue to produce and sell?

This problem has something to do with companies, brands, technology patents and production lines. Brands, technology patents and production lines are all assets of the company and can be bought, sold and transferred. For example, everyone knows that Lamborghini is an Italian brand, but it now belongs to the German public. Similarly, Volvo was acquired by Geely or called Volvo, just like a son can adopt, but he can't change his bloodline. Therefore, the bankruptcy of automobile enterprises can sell brands, patents or production lines to others, and others will continue the life of this brand.

After a hundred years of development, competition, bankruptcy and reorganization, the American automobile industry is finally left with three automobile giants, GM, Ford and Chrysler, and their affiliated brands. At present, because it has reached a considerable scale, fierce competition, coupled with the government's protection policy, the possibility of bankruptcy again is extremely small.

Practically speaking, although the automobile industry in the United States has considerable scale and scientific and technological content, the core competitiveness and focus of the scientific and technological industry are no longer here (on the contrary, the automobile industries in Germany and Japan occupy a very important position and share in the world). His research and development, technology and production level, ability and scale of aero-engines and civil military aircraft are absolutely far ahead in the world. The technical content, manufacturing difficulty and profit in this field are different from those in the automobile industry.

The entire military industry of the United States is also the most complete, largest, highest point and high-tech in the world. This includes aircraft carriers, various types of military aircraft, warships, missiles, nuclear weapons, satellite navigation, reconnaissance and positioning and space weapon systems, laser weapons, artillery, tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, logistics support, battlefield rescue medical care, reconnaissance night vision, chemical, biochemical and nuclear radiation protection, and frontier high-tech research and development for military and civilian use.

In addition, the United States also occupies a leading position in agriculture and agricultural machinery, medical equipment, pharmaceutical R&D and production, oil and gas, chemical industry, etc., especially in computers, computers, chips, robots, mask aligner, large precision machine tools, special metal R&D and applications.

The reason why the United States can dominate the family depends on its hegemonic position in the world currency, coupled with a strong reserve of educational and scientific research talents, as well as the NATO military alliance and military bases all over the world built after World War II.

First, the foundation and scale of the American automobile industry are still there; Second, it is protected by the government; Third, it owns many subsidiaries and well-known brands through mergers and acquisitions; And thirdly, it is one of the top automobile consuming countries and markets in the world (at present, only the demand of China can compete with it), and the environment of car use policy is quite relaxed. Therefore, the automobile industry in the United States will not close down, and automobile consumption will continue to be hot.

American cars are dominated by GM, Chrysler and Ford, and other small brands are hard to survive. In addition, American brands consume too much fuel and compete for promotion advantages in overseas markets.
