Chen Yiyang and Yang Chengru stayed in the Imperial Capital for a few days.
A few things happened during these days.
One was a notification issued to legally protect the rights of private entrepreneurs; on the other hand, a conference was held emphasizing the development of the private economy.
Although the backdrop of these two events was born out of the current severe export situation and economic pressure.
However, Chen Yiyang benefited from this era's backdrop, and with the intervention of the Lin'an City Government, all the blackmail concerning him personally were completely deleted from the internet overnight.
Several public relations companies specializing in these matters were also sealed, and all the responsible were arrested.
Even many entertainment industry marketing accounts, because they posted news about Chen Yiyang, were also tragically banned.
"Lei Jun invited me to attend a symposium on the automobile industry?"
While resting at the hotel, Chen Yiyang glanced at the invitation and instantly nodded to the junior accountant, saying, "I will go, please arrange the schedule for me."
Of course, Chen Yiyang had to give face to Lei Jun.
However, the purpose of inviting him to this symposium might not be simply to attend a meeting.
Chen Yiyang looked at the list of participants and indeed found that Wei Yujun from Changcheng Company was also going to attend this symposium.
The next day, Chen Yiyang arrived at the symposium.
After several big names spoke, the host suddenly spoke up and wanted to invite some newcomers in the field of new energy vehicles to speak.
Then they asked Chen Yiyang if he could say a few words on stage.
Of course, Chen Yiyang had to go on stage.
Because sitting in the audience was none other than Wei Yujun.
"As a newcomer in the field of new energy vehicles, I don't have much experience to impart, but I do have some experiences to share from overseas."
Chen Yiyang paused and then continued, "As everyone knows, Yiyang Automobile bought a car factory in Sao Paulo, Brazil for one US Dollar.
But in fact, this wasn't Yiyang Automobile's last acquisition overseas. Recently, we signed an agreement with Russian Tula City to acquire a factory left by Mercedes-Benz Company for a price of one Ruble."
The news of Chen Yiyang's acquisition of the Tula car factory hadn't yet reached the domestic market, and many present were hearing about this for the first time, immediately turning their attention to Chen Yiyang.
"As everyone knows, another domestic star in the automotive field, Changcheng Company, coincidentally has a car factory in Russia, also in Tula City.
To my knowledge, Changcheng Company has heavily invested in their car factory in Tula City. Previously, when they acquired a car factory in Sao Paulo, they offered several hundred million Euro as the acquisition price.
This is what I wanted to say: Huaxia Company often plays the role of the fool abroad.
If decision-makers could take the time to understand the local situation, they would find that many foreign countries are eager for our investment, as it brings jobs and taxes to the local area without needing to spend large sums on hefty acquisitions."
After Chen Yiyang finished speaking, Wei Yujun's face turned ashen.
Businessmen sitting in the forum below began whispering to each other.
Even fools could tell who Chen Yiyang was talking about.
He was directly pointing at Changcheng.
You Changcheng spent five hundred million Euro to acquire the factory, we bought it for one US Dollar.
You Changcheng spent billions to build a factory in Tula, we bought one for one Ruble.
This was blatant face-slapping.
After Chen Yiyang finished speaking, even Lei Jun couldn't hold back, unsure if he regretted inviting Chen Yiyang.
However, Chen Yiyang was still considerate; after finishing, he promptly stated his speech ended, leaving the time for the next speaker.
After the meeting ended, Wei Yujun walked away with a face turned pale.
Lei Jun, however, stopped Chen Yiyang, chatting casually while walking outside with him.
"Actually, Wei Yujun came today prepared to agree to your terms," Lei Jun began, "After all, Wei Hanyu is still too young to become the president of a large company. In a while, Wei Hanyu will step down from management and go to the grassroots to gain experience."
"That was the previous negotiation condition; now it's different."
"It is different; you've followed through to Russia." Lei Jun hadn't expected Chen Yiyang would go to Russian Tula City to purchase a factory again.
Regarding Changcheng's overseas factories, the ones in Brazil and Thailand are still just in negotiation stages.
Originally, Brazil was supposed to be faster than Thailand, but the crucial last step in Brazil was thwarted by Chen Yiyang.
On the other hand, Russia's overseas factory is Changcheng's vital profit source and largest overseas market.
As a result, Chen Yiyang went directly to the city where their factory is located and acquired a factory.
Doing business in Russia is not a simple matter, and Chen Yiyang's ability to go to Russia and buy a factory for one Ruble proves his significant connections and strength there.
Under such a threat, the reconciliation demands Chen Yiyang made previously seemed inadequate.
Because Yiyang Automobile could totally threaten Changcheng's overseas core interests now.
So, Lei Jun no longer talked with Chen Yiyang about reconciliation conditions with Changcheng. He didn't want to be involved anymore.
As a big shot of a trillion-dollar company, Lei Jun left with a big entourage, surrounded by bodyguards and assistants to prevent strangers from coming over randomly to chat.
After walking outside the hotel with Lei Jun, Lei Jun left.
Chen Yiyang's surroundings suddenly became empty.
So, Chen Yiyang planned to call a driver for pickup. Just then, a middle-aged man dressed opulently approached.
"Young brother, let's get acquainted; I'm Zhao Rui."
"Hello." Chen Yiyang briefly shook hands with the man.
"Were you discussing business with Mr. Lei just now?"
"No, just chatting about family matters. Mr. Lei is an elder of mine." Chen Yiyang noticed the person didn't recognize him, so he instantly started lying.
Who knows what this guy is up to, Chen Yiyang wasn't keen on having a serious chat with him.
"So, you're a relative of Mr. Lei's family." Zhao Rui continued talking to Chen Yiyang, "I'm a shareholder of this hotel, initially planning to waive Mr. Lei's bill when he chose our hotel for this symposium.
But Mr. Lei left too quickly, I didn't catch him. However, by chance, I happen to be here with some friends eating freshly imported emperor crab, want to come over and try?"
"Hold on." Chen Yiyang picked up his phone and texted the junior accountant, "I'm treating you to emperor crab, will you come?"
"Yes, definitely. Boss, are you really treating? I'm so moved."
"Alright, then come on over."
Chen Yiyang looked up and asked the man, "I have a friend, can they come too?"
