An excerpt characterizing Renault Nissan (alliance)
During my "walks" I met a lot of different, beautiful visitors who came to visit the Holy Pope. These were both cardinals and some very high-ranking persons unknown to me (which I judged by their clothes and by how proudly and independently they behaved with the rest). But after they left the Pope’s chambers, all these people no longer looked as confident and independent as they had been before visiting the waiting room ... After all, for Caraffa, as I said, it didn’t matter who the person standing in front of him was, the only important for the Pope was HIS WILL. And everything else didn't matter. Therefore, I very often had to see very “shabby” visitors, fussily trying to leave the “biting” Papal chambers as soon as possible ...On one of the same, exactly the same "gloomy" days, I suddenly decided to do something that had been haunting me for a long time - to finally visit the ominous Papal cellar ... I knew that this was probably "fraught with consequences", but the expectation of danger was a hundred times worse than the danger itself.
And I decided...
Going down the narrow stone steps and opening a heavy, sadly familiar door, I found myself in a long, damp corridor, which smelled of mold and death ... There was no lighting, but it was not difficult to move further, since I always had a good orientation In the dark. Many small, very heavy doors sadly alternated one after another, completely lost in the depths of the gloomy corridor... I remembered these gray walls, I remembered the horror and pain that accompanied me every time I had to return from there... But I ordered myself to be strong and don't think about the past. She told me to just go.
Finally, the terrible corridor ended ... Having carefully peered into the darkness, at its very end I immediately recognized the narrow iron door behind which my innocent husband once died so brutally ... my poor Girolamo. And behind which terrible human groans and screams were usually heard ... But for some reason, the usual sounds were not heard that day. Moreover, behind all the doors there was a strange dead silence ... I almost thought - finally Caraffa came to his senses! But then she straightened herself up - Papa was not one of those who calmed down or suddenly became kinder. It’s just that, at the beginning, brutally exhausting in order to find out what he wanted, later he apparently completely forgot about his victims, leaving them (like waste material!) At the “mercy” of the executioners who tormented them ...
Cautiously approaching one of the doors, I gently pressed the handle - the door did not give in. Then I began to feel it blindly, hoping to find an ordinary deadbolt. The hand came across a huge key. Turning it, the heavy door crept inside with a creak... Cautiously entering the torture chamber, I felt for the extinguished torch. The flint, to my great regret, was not.
“Look a little to the left...” a weak, exhausted voice suddenly rang out.
I shuddered in surprise - someone was in the room!.. Rummaging my hand along the left wall, I finally found what I was looking for... In the light of a lit torch, right in front of me shone large, wide-open, cornflower blue eyes... Leaning to a cold stone wall, sat an exhausted man, chained with wide iron chains... Unable to get a good look at his face, I brought the fire closer and recoiled in surprise - on the dirty straw, all smeared with his own blood, sat... a cardinal! And by his dignity, I immediately realized that he was one of the highest-ranking, closest to the Holy Pope. What prompted the “holy father” to act so cruelly with his possible successor?! .. Did Caraffa even treat “his own” with the same cruelty? ..
“Are you very ill, Your Eminence?” How can I help you? - I asked, looking around in confusion.
I was looking for at least a sip of water to drink the unfortunate, but there was no water anywhere.
“Look in the wall… There’s a door… They keep wine there for themselves…” the man whispered softly, as if guessing my thoughts.
I found the indicated locker - there really was a bottle that smelled of mold and cheap, sour wine. The man did not move, I carefully lifted him by the chin, trying to get him drunk. The stranger was still quite young, about forty or forty-five years old. And very unusual. He looked like a sad angel tortured by beasts who called themselves "humans"... His face was very thin and thin, but very regular and pleasant. And on this strange face, like two stars, bright cornflower blue eyes burned with inner strength ... For some reason, he seemed familiar to me, only I could not remember where and when I could meet him.
The stranger groaned softly.
- Who are you, Monseigneur? How can I help you? I asked again.
“My name is Giovanni… you don’t need to know more, Madonna…” the man said hoarsely. - And who are you? How did you get here?
“Oh, it’s a very long and sad story…” I smiled. – My name is Isidora, and you also don’t need to know anything else, Monseigneur...
– Do you know how you can leave here, Isidora? The cardinal smiled back. “How did you end up here?”
“Unfortunately, people don’t leave here so easily,” I answered sadly. “My husband didn’t manage, anyway… And my father only got to the fire.
Giovanni looked at me very sadly and nodded, showing that he understood everything. I tried to get him drunk with the wine I found, but nothing worked - he was not able to take even the slightest sip. “Looking” at him in my own way, I realized that the poor fellow had a badly damaged chest.
The Renault-Nissan Alliance is now called Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi. Carlos Ghosn announced this today at the presentation of a new strategy for six years - until 2022. The name of Mitsubishi Motors (MMC), 34% of which is the alliance, is included in the official name, and the logo with two yellow-red lines is transformed into a kind of geometric figure with three vertices.
Alliance old logo
However, this is more of an advance. The official organizational structure on the website of the alliance has not changed: Mitsubishi is subordinate to Nissan, which organizes the group on an equal footing with Renault (50/50%). Moreover, the company responsible for the operation of the alliance and registered in Amsterdam is still legally called Renault-Nissan B.V.
Structure of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance
As for the keynote speech itself, Carlos Ghosn first of all recalled that in the first half of 2017, the alliance came out on top in the world in car sales: 5 million 270 thousand cars and light commercial vehicles. The plan is to increase annual sales to 14 million vehicles by 2022, revenue to $240 billion compared to last year's $180 billion.
Carlos Ghosn
To this end, the alliance companies will release 40 new models, of which 12 will be purely electric, and one will be completely autonomous. With the introduction of a common electric bogie and platform for mid-size vehicles, the number of cars built on joint modular platforms will grow from two million to nine million a year. By 2020, Mitsubishi will also have access to common modular platforms: the total cost savings for the alliance should be $11.9 billion.
These are the goals in the first approximation. More detailed and specific plans will be announced at the conferences of each member of the alliance. By right of precedence, the first such meeting on October 6 will be held by Renault.

An excerpt characterizing Renault Nissan (alliance)
Napoleon sat thoughtfully in a folding chair.Hungry in the morning, Mr de Beausset, who loved to travel, approached the emperor and dared to respectfully offer breakfast to his majesty.
“I hope that now I can already congratulate Your Majesty on your victory,” he said.
Napoleon silently shook his head. Believing that denial refers to victory and not to breakfast, mr de Beausset allowed himself to playfully respectfully remark that there is no reason in the world that could prevent breakfast when it can be done.
- Allez vous ... [Get out to ...] - Napoleon suddenly said gloomily and turned away. A blissful smile of regret, repentance and delight shone on the face of Monsieur Bosse, and he walked with a floating step to the other generals.
Napoleon experienced a heavy feeling, similar to that experienced by the always happy player, who madly threw his money, always winning, and suddenly, just when he calculated all the chances of the game, feeling that the more deliberate his move, the more sure he loses.
The troops were the same, the generals were the same, the preparations were the same, the disposition was the same, the same proclamation courte et energique [short and energetic proclamation], he himself was the same, he knew it, he knew that he was even much more experienced and more skillful now than he was before, even the enemy was the same as near Austerlitz and Friedland; but the terrible swing of the hand fell magically powerless.
All those former methods, which used to be invariably crowned with success: both the concentration of batteries on one point, and the attack of reserves to break through the line, and the attack of the des hommes de fer [iron men] cavalry - all these methods have already been used, and not only were not victory, but the same news came from all sides about the dead and wounded generals, about the need for reinforcements, about the impossibility of knocking down the Russians and about the disorder of the troops.
Previously, after two three orders, two three phrases, marshals and adjutants galloped with congratulations and cheerful faces, declaring the corps of prisoners of war as trophies, des faisceaux de drapeaux et d "aigles ennemis, [bunches of enemy eagles and banners] and guns, and carts, and Murat he asked only for permission to send cavalry to pick up the baggage trains.So it was near Lodi, Marengo, Arcole, Jena, Austerlitz, Wagram, etc., etc. Now something strange was happening to his troops.
Despite the news of the capture of the flushes, Napoleon saw that it was not the same, not at all what had been in all his previous battles. He saw that the same feeling that he experienced was experienced by all the people around him, experienced in the matter of battles. All faces were sad, all eyes avoided each other. Only Bosse could not understand the meaning of what was happening. Napoleon, after his long experience of the war, knew well what it meant in the course of eight hours, after all the efforts expended, a battle not won by the attacker. He knew that this was an almost lost battle, and that the slightest chance could now - on that tense point of hesitation on which the battle stood - destroy him and his troops.
When he went over in his imagination all this strange Russian campaign, in which not a single battle was won, in which neither banners, nor cannons, nor corps of troops were taken in two months, when he looked at the secretly sad faces of those around him and listened to reports that that the Russians are still standing, - a terrible feeling, similar to the feeling experienced in dreams, seized him, and all the unfortunate accidents that could destroy him occurred to him. The Russians could attack his left wing, they could tear his middle apart, a stray cannonball could kill him himself. All this was possible. In his previous battles, he considered only the chances of success, but now countless accidents seemed to him, and he expected them all. Yes, it was like in a dream, when a villain is advancing on him, and in a dream the person swung and hit his villain with that terrible effort, which, he knows, should destroy him, and feels that his hand, powerless and soft, falls like a rag, and the horror of irresistible doom seizes the helpless man.
The news that the Russians were attacking the left flank of the French army aroused this horror in Napoleon. He sat silently on a folding chair under the barrow, his head bowed and his elbows on his knees. Berthier approached him and offered to drive along the line to see what the situation was.
- What? What are you saying? Napoleon said. - Yes, tell me to give me a horse.
He mounted and rode to Semyonovsky's.
In the slowly dispersing powder smoke throughout the space through which Napoleon rode, horses and people lay in pools of blood, singly and in heaps. Napoleon and none of his generals had ever seen such a horror, such a number of people killed in such a small area. The rumble of guns, which did not stop for ten hours in a row and exhausted the ear, gave special significance to the spectacle (like music in live pictures). Napoleon rode out to the height of Semenovsky and through the smoke he saw rows of people in uniforms of colors unusual for his eyes. These were Russians.
The Russians stood in tight ranks behind Semyonovsky and the kurgan, and their guns ceaselessly hummed and smoked along their line. There was no more fighting. There was a continuing murder, which could lead neither the Russians nor the French to anything. Napoleon stopped his horse and fell back into that thoughtfulness from which Berthier had led him; he could not stop the deed that was being done before him and around him and which was considered to be led by him and dependent on him, and for the first time this deed, due to failure, seemed to him unnecessary and terrible.
MOSCOW, December 12, 2012 Renault-Nissan Alliance and Russian Technologies State Corporation have created a joint venture that will own all their shares in the authorized capital of JSC AVTOVAZ and become a stable, long-term controlling shareholder for the largest automotive company in Russia and the owner of the LADA brand.
President of the Renault-Nissan Alliance Carlos Ghosn today announced the creation of the Alliance Rostec Auto BV JV at a ceremony in Moscow, together with Sergey Chemezov, General Director of Russian Technologies State Corporation, Chairman of the Board of Directors of AVTOVAZ, and Igor Komarov, President of AVTOVAZ OJSC.
""Today's historic agreement is a unique deal that benefits all three brands, Renault, Nissan and LADA, and will mark a new milestone in successful cooperation," said Mr. Ghosn. - ""Joint venture will accelerate our development in Russia and will contribute to the competitiveness of AVTOVAZ, the leader of the Russian automotive industry"".
Under the terms of the deal, the Renault-Nissan alliance will invest 23 billion rubles (equivalent to $742 million). As a result of these investments, Renault-Nissan will receive 67.13% of the joint venture's capital by mid-2014. After that, the joint venture will own 74.5% of AVTOVAZ.
Renault will invest about 11.3 billion rubles ($366 million) in the JV. Renault plans to acquire a 50.1% stake in the joint venture by June 2014. Nissan will invest 11.7 billion rubles ($376 million). Nissan plans to acquire 17.03% of the joint venture by the same period.
In the same period, Russian Technologies State Corporation will receive 32.87% of the joint venture.
At the time of completion of the transaction in 2014, the joint venture being created will buy out all the shares of AVTOVAZ, which are now owned by Troika Dialog Investments Limited. The deal is subject to relevant preconditions, which must be strictly adhered to.
Together for the economic growth of Europe
The Board of Directors of Alliance Rostec Auto BV will resolve strategic issues and tasks and will become a platform for discussion for the Renault-Nissan Alliance and Russian Technologies State Corporation.
As part of the deal, Renault-Nissan President Carlos Ghosn will become Chairman of the Board of Directors of the JV Alliance Rostec Auto. The Board of Directors will include:
Three representatives from the Renault-Nissan Alliance: Dominique Thormann, Renault CFO; Joseph Peter, Nissan CFO; Bruno Anselin, Renault Senior Vice President and Eurasia Region COO;
Two representatives from the Russian Technologies State Corporation: Sergey Chemezov, General Director of the Russian Technologies State Corporation and Igor Zavyalov, Deputy General Director of the Russian Technologies State Corporation.
The Board of Directors of AVTOVAZ will be expanded from 12 to 15 members. From the side of the Renault-Nissan alliance, it will include 8 representatives, whose candidatures must be approved by the Extraordinary Meeting of AVTOVAZ shareholders. It will take place on February 12, 2013. Sergey Chemezov will remain Chairman of the Board of Directors of AVTOVAZ, alternating in this position with Carlos Ghosn as Deputy Chairman of the Board of Directors from June 2013.
""The Russian automotive market is becoming the leader in Europe in terms of car sales," said Sergey Chemezov, CEO of the corporation. - By 2020, AVTOVAZ, together with partners, plans to reach the annual production level of more than 1 million vehicles, the quality of which will meet the highest international standards. Thanks to the partnership with the Renault-Nissan alliance, new modern and well-paid jobs will be created for residents of the city of Togliatti and the Samara region.
The deal is concluded eight months after the inauguration of a new production line at AVTOVAZ in Togliatti by Russian President Vladimir Putin, with a production capacity of up to 350,000 vehicles per year. This line will become a platform for the joint use of car platforms. In the spring of 2012, production of LADA Largus was already launched at the production complex, and yesterday the production of the new Nissan Almera began, which will reach full capacity in the spring of 2013. In 2013, the plant will produce five models of three brands - LADA, Renault and Nissan on this line. Investments in this project will amount to about 400 million euros.
""Strengthening our partnership is a logical step in our common work," said Igor Komarov, President of AVTOVAZ. - AvtoVAZ has already become multi-brand yesterday - we started producing a car for Nissan in Togliatti. Accelerated integration will increase the effectiveness of the overall effort and increase market share.
Additional Information:
AVTOVAZ Group is a member of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance and produces full-cycle vehicles and auto components for 4 brands: LADA, Renault, Nissan, Datsun. The production facilities of the Group are located in Tolyatti - JSC AVTOVAZ and in Izhevsk - OOO LADA Izhevsk.
The LADA brand is represented in the B, B+, SUV and LCV segments, which make up 5 model families: Vesta, XRAY, Largus, Granta and 4x4. The brand occupies 20% of the Russian car market. The official dealer network of the Brand is the largest in Russia - about 300 dealer centers.
The fact that Renault and Nissan are negotiating a merger and the creation of a new company, according to Bloomberg, citing its own sources. To date, automakers are partners in a strategic alliance, which relatively recently included Mitsubishi.
Renault now owns 43% of Nissan; the Japanese company, in turn, has a 15% stake in the French automaker. Now their leaders have decided to consider the possibility of creating a new single company with common shares, that is, we are talking about the receipt of securities in the new company by the shareholders of Renault and Nissan in exchange for their shares in automakers.
The new company is supposed to retain both its headquarters in Japan and France. Alliance Chairman Carlos Ghosn is leading the negotiations. According to sources, it is he who will subsequently lead the new merged company.
Business messages about a possible merger were taken with a bang: shares of Renault and Nissan rose (by 8.3% and 3.6% respectively) after the appearance of relevant reports of negotiations.
Note that the decision of the management of the companies themselves to merge into one company will not be enough. To conclude the deal, the parties will need to obtain the approval of the Japanese government, as well as the government of France, which owns a 15% stake in automaker Renault. It is assumed that the authorities of the countries will perceive the proposal without enthusiasm.
According to sources, representatives of Renault and Nissan have been negotiating over the past few months, but they have not yet reached a final agreement. A spokesperson for the alliance said the group would not comment on the rumors.
It is reported that the combined structure of Renault and Nissan will become a serious competitor for the Volkswagen concern and Toyota Motor Corporation. As an industry expert noted, “Size matters in the automotive industry.”
According to the plans of the alliance, by 2022, the total sales of cars in the world should reach 14 million copies. Recall that in 2017 they sold a total of 10.6 million vehicles. The volume of sales of the global market leader - the Volkswagen concern - amounted to 10.7 million units, Toyota Motor - 10.4 million units.
Recall that, based on the results of sales of new cars on the world market in 2017, it was compiled. It included: China, USA, Germany, India, Japan, Great Britain, Brazil, France, Canada and Italy. Russia took 12th place with a score of almost 1,600,000 copies.
