UAW chief to say if auto strikes will grow from 34,000 workers now on picket lines_我的网站

一 |     41岁，23个赛季，4座总冠军。    DETROIT -- United Auto Workers union President Shawn Fain is expected to update members Friday afternoon on progress in contract talks with Detroit's three automakers as movement was reported with General Motors.Fain is scheduled to do a live video appearance, where he could call on more workers to walk off their jobs, joining the 34,000 already on strike at six vehicle assembly plants and 38 parts distribution warehouses. The union's strikes at targeted plants at each company began on Sept. 15 and are nearing the start of their sixth week.A person briefed on the talks says the union is exchanging offers with GM and will meet again Friday with the company. The person didn't want to be identified because they’re not authorized to speak on the record about the bargaining. There also were meetings on Thursday with Jeep maker Stellantis.On Thursday, GM posted a video indicating that bargainers are still some distance apart. Gerald Johnson, the company's global head of manufacturing, said GM has offered a total wage and benefit package that averages $150,000 per worker. It includes a 20% pay increase over four years and a company contribution of 8% per year in 401(k) accounts, cost-of-living increases, and it brings most workers to a top wage of $39.24 per hour by September of 2027, the company said.GM already has agreed to pull new electric vehicle battery plants into the national UAW contract, essentially making them unionized, a key point for Fain and the union. The UAW is seeking 36% wages, restoration of defined benefit pensions that workers gave up in the Great Recession, pension increases for retirees, an end to varying tiers of wages for workers and other items.“You might might be asking yourselves why can't General Motors meet every demand Shawn Fain is asking for?” Johnson said on the video. “Simple answer is we need profits to invest in our future.”He goes on to say that during the past decade, GM had net income of $65 billion but invested $77 billion in the business. “If we don't have those profits to continue our investments in our plants, our people and our products, we will be facing declining market share, an inability to fund the EV transition, and an inability to compete with a growing number of competitors right here in America,” Johnson said.Ford and Stellantis have made similar comments, with Ford saying it has reached the limit on how much it can spend to settle the strike. The union, however, says labor expenses are only about 5% of a vehicle's costs, and the companies can divert money from profits and stock buybacks to pay for raises that cover inflation and make up for years of contracts without significant increases. The strikes started with one assembly plant from each company after contracts expired at 11:59 p.m. Sept. 14. The union later added the parts warehouses, then one assembly plant each from Ford and GM.Last week the union made a surprise move, escalating the strikes by adding a huge Ford pickup truck and SUV plant in Louisville, Kentucky. But Fain told workers Friday that the union added the Kentucky plant after Ford presented an economic offer with no more money than a proposal from two weeks ago.About 23% of the union's 146,000 members employed by the three automakers are on strike.Stellantis said Friday that it canceled displays and presentations at the upcoming Specialty Equipment Market Association show and the Los Angeles Auto Show as strike costs continue to grow. Earlier this week the company pulled out of the CES gadget show in January.。         很多人以为詹姆斯来到费城以后，76人的任务就是把四巨头磨合好。

二 |          可现在看来，费城真正想做的事情，可能比“堆几个明星球员”更疯狂。         他们不只是把詹姆斯带到了费城。         他们甚至想把詹姆斯最熟悉的冠军环境，也一起搬过去。         据NBA记者马克·J·斯皮尔斯报道，76人正在敲定聘请菲尔·汉迪加入教练组。汉迪曾经在骑士和湖人与詹姆斯共事，并随队拿下2016年骑士冠军和2020年湖人冠军，同时也曾在猛龙夺得2019年总冠军。

三 |          消息只有这么多。         但真正值得讨论的，是76人为什么在这个时间点做这件事。         因为詹姆斯已经没有时间重新试错了。         76人赌的不是天赋，而是詹姆斯的“冠军公式”          过去几年，很多球队追逐老将巨星，最大的问题是什么？          不是实力。

四 |          而是磨合。         一群球星站在一起，不代表一定能赢。         篮网三巨头、太阳豪华阵容、快船连续组队失败，都证明了一件事：          冠军不是把名字放进首发名单那么简单。         所以76人现在的思路很明显。         詹姆斯带来什么？          不是单纯的20分、7篮板、7助攻。         而是20年来不断进入争冠阶段的经验。         他知道什么时候该冲。         知道什么时候该让年轻球员成长。         也知道季后赛最后5分钟，一个球队最容易输在哪里。         而菲尔·汉迪，就是这种冠军经验的一部分。         他见过詹姆斯在骑士背负整个城市压力的样子。         也见过湖人在2020年泡泡园区里顶住所有质疑拿冠军的过程。         对于76人来说，这比找一个普通助教更重要。         因为他们现在最大的敌人不是东部其他球队。

五 |          是时间。

六 |          詹姆斯可以等，但76人等不起          76人现在拥有詹姆斯、恩比德、布朗、马克西。

七 |          纸面实力已经足够豪华。

八 |          问题是，这几个人以前都是球队第一选择。

九 |          恩比德习惯了围绕自己进攻。

十 |          马克西刚刚成长为球队核心。         布朗曾经在凯尔特人拿过总决赛MVP。         而詹姆斯过去二十年一直站在球队中心。         四个人站在一起，最大的难题从来不是谁更强。         而是谁愿意先改变。         这也是为什么76人需要熟悉詹姆斯的人。         因为他们不是只需要一个战术安排。         他们需要有人告诉所有人：          冠军球队每天应该怎么工作。         什么训练必须坚持。

十一 |          什么时候年轻球员应该闭嘴听。         什么时候老将必须承担责任。         这些东西，数据统计不了。         但季后赛能看出来。         东决最后一分钟，谁会成为那个决定胜负的人？          想象一个场景。

十二 |          东部决赛抢七。         76人主场。         比赛还剩40秒。         比分落后一分。

十三 |          暂停回来。         恩比德站在罚球线附近。         马克西等待突破机会。         布朗准备单打。         詹姆斯站在弧顶。

十四 |          所有人都知道，这一球只能给一个人。         如果是以前。         詹姆斯可能直接接管。         但现在不同。         他身边有三个同样需要球的人。         这时候，真正决定76人能不能夺冠的，不是他们有多少球星。         而是他们能不能像冠军球队一样接受牺牲。         这也是菲尔·汉迪加入的意义。         他不是来教詹姆斯怎么打球的。         詹姆斯不需要。         他更像是一个提醒者。         提醒所有人：          你们现在追求的不是个人数据。         是最后一次机会。         76人的豪赌，已经进入最后阶段          费城等冠军等了太久。         他们经历过过程。         经历过重建。         经历过一次次季后赛失望。         现在，他们选择了一条最直接的路。

十五 |          把一个41岁的传奇巨星请来。         再把他过去成功路上的熟悉面孔带来。         这是一场豪赌。

十六 |          赢了，76人可能创造一个最特别的冠军故事。         一个41岁的詹姆斯，在职业生涯最后阶段帮助另一座城市圆梦。         输了？          所有人都会问：          是不是为了追逐第五冠，76人押上了太多未来？          但现在，他们没有选择慢慢等待。         因为詹姆斯等不起。         76人也等不起。         如果这是詹姆斯最后一次冲击总冠军，你觉得76人是在复制成功经验，还是把球队未来压得太狠？。
