When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student
Chapter 727 Lei Jun visits, offering 23 of the shares.
Just as September began, a major event occurred, one that is even more shocking than any celebrity cheating scandal or secret birth.
JD.com, owned by Qiangdong (Daqiangzi), may not be able to claim to serve everyone in the country, but it certainly serves at least one-fifth of them.
In addition, the logistics system built by Daqiangzi has made Daqiangzi's reputation even more renowned.
Therefore, when this news broke, it became the hottest topic across the entire internet.
Previous Western academic fraud or manned moon landings have naturally lost most of their attention in the face of this sex scandal.
Most people want to know if this is true or false.
Some people were curious about who this female college student who could make Da Qiangzi fall for her was, what she looked like, what her figure was like, and how she could bewitch a super billionaire like Da Qiangzi and make him fall into such a trap.
However, as the matter unfolded, more and more netizens keenly sensed that something was amiss.
The New York Times, published by the Bald Eagle Federation, directly published an article titled "The Cracks in the JD.com Dynasty: When the Halo of a National Enterprise Collides with Founder's Sexual Assault Scandal and Criminal Charges."
This article elevates this specific case to the level of the original sin of governance in Chinese private enterprises.
Coincidentally, other bald eagle federal media outlets also published articles.
CNN, for example, released an article titled "Daqiangzi's Parallel Universe: Milk Tea Sister and Victim's Legal Documents Appear Together".
The Wall Street Journal published a highly professional analysis article titled "Behind JD.com's $72 Billion Market Value Loss: An Update to International Capital's Risk Assessment Model in China."
This article presents detailed data to illustrate its professional capabilities.
Not only the media in the Bald Eagle Federation, but also the media in Europe were not left behind.
The Guardian: "If this had happened in Norway, this Chinese billionaire would have faced chemical castration."
At the end of the article, a report on the superiority of the rule of law in the Nordic countries was also attached.
As for "Western Mirror," it subtly mocked: "Chinese entrepreneurs' spending on luxury goods in Brazil = indulgences purchased from Western justice systems?"
The publication of articles in these internationally renowned newspapers immediately raised the level of attention surrounding the Qiangzi sexual assault case to a new level.
Meanwhile, in China, while the matter was still unfolding, a verbal order without any written documentation was issued from relevant departments in Beijing.
Videos related to the Minnesota incident were removed from the entire internet to control its popularity and prevent the widespread appearance of photos of Qiangzi wearing an orange vest.
Although no official document was issued, no domestic platform dared to disobey this order.
Therefore, netizens in China immediately noticed something was wrong.
Some of the original articles and pictures were inexplicably blocked or deleted.
Just as the Daqiangzi incident was making headlines...
Some prominent business leaders in China who have reached a certain level of influence have received a message.
The Xuanwu Battery trillion-yuan industrial park project in Tangdu City has been approved by higher authorities.
The top leader will personally attend the groundbreaking ceremony.
Unlike the previous plan proposed by Tangdu City, this trillion-yuan-scale industrial park will be jointly constructed by Beijing, Qin Province, and even Tangdu City, with a total investment of 500 billion yuan, along with related land resources.
Yes, the original positioning of the industrial park has been changed to that of an industrial park.
The government has invested 500 billion yuan, along with preferential policies on land and taxes, in exchange for the vigorous development of the energy battery industry.
When this news broke, everyone who knew about it immediately thought it was impossible.
Five hundred billion is no small sum.
The capital city, Qin province, and even Tang city jointly contributed funds.
No matter how you calculate it, it's hard to believe that Qin Province and Tang City can come up with much money.
Beijing has the capability, but the budgets were planned at the beginning of the year. Now, suddenly having to come up with 500 billion yuan will inevitably affect the budgets of other industries.
After thinking it over, I don't think that the 500 billion can be easily received.
however.
Even if everyone had doubts and pondered in their hearts, the first thing they did was remarkably unified.
That means contacting Galaxy Technology.
Regardless of whether the 500 billion yuan will actually arrive, given the excellent performance of Xuanwu batteries and the government's attention to this project, the development of this industrial park is absolutely guaranteed.
It's worth noting that when news of this trillion-dollar industrial park was first released, Galaxy Technology also put forward a condition.
That means these related companies need to relocate their headquarters to Tangdu City.
Logically speaking, such conditions are difficult to meet.
After all, every company that has grown to a certain size has already established a stable network of relationships in the local area.
Relocating the headquarters hastily presents challenges for the company, but local resistance is inevitable.
Even so, many companies are preparing to relocate their headquarters to Tangdu City.
The goal is to leverage Xuanwu Battery's strong market dominance.
Companies like BYD, although they did not move their headquarters directly.
However, because of the Xuanwu Battery, they are preparing to establish a second headquarters in Tangdu City, forming a dual-headquarters structure.
With so many companies settling in Tangdu City, the future economic development of Tangdu City is something you can easily imagine.
If we don't secure our niche now, it won't be so easy to gain an advantage once Tangdu City has developed.
Tangdu City.
After the news that the industrial park was about to start construction spread.
Galaxy Technology became a highly sought-after commodity.
The core of this trillion-yuan industrial park is obvious to anyone: Galaxy Technology's Xuanwu Battery.
All of this is based on the Xuanwu Battery.
Therefore, as long as we establish a good relationship with Galaxy Technology, we will inevitably gain the initiative and a significant advantage in the construction of the industrial park.
Lei Jun was the first to arrive in Tangdu City.
As Galaxy Technology developed, Lei Jun increasingly regretted his past communication with Qualcomm.
I just needed to hold on a little longer.
But I couldn't stick to it, even though I didn't actually do it.
But he knew very well that there was a deep rift between him and Wang Donglai, and they could never go back to being close business partners.
However, Lei Jun is Lei Jun after all.
Even when faced with such a situation, they never gave up.
Upon hearing the news of the trillion-yuan industrial park, Lei Jun immediately made a decision.
That means we must get involved no matter what.
Upon arriving in Tangdu, Wang Donglai did not refuse to meet with Lei Busi, which relieved Lei Busi.
He was genuinely afraid that Wang Donglai would refuse to see him and directly exclude Xmi from the list.
This visit is related to an important decision concerning X-meters.
Therefore, upon meeting Wang Donglai, Lei Jun stated his purpose directly.
"Mr. Wang, Xiaomi is preparing to enter the new energy vehicle industry and produce smart vehicles for young people."
Wang Donglai was also somewhat surprised that Lei Jun brought up this matter as soon as they met.
In his memory, Lei Jun did not publicly announce his intention to build cars until several years later.
At this point in time, it doesn't seem like Lei Jun has made a decision yet.
The moment the thought crossed Wang Donglai's mind, he knew the reason. The Xuanwu Battery!
Originally, the development of new energy vehicles was limited by batteries, electronic control systems, and public acceptance, so its development was lukewarm.
However, with the continuous cash subsidies from above, coupled with the constant promotion and launch of new products by major car manufacturers, the situation has changed.
Ultimately, the concept of new energy vehicles has been gradually promoted to a relatively high level.
Following that, Galaxy Technology developed lithium-sulfur batteries, which became battery products that were no less powerful than 18650 batteries.
In this way, BYD immediately stood out in the field of new energy vehicles thanks to its strong OEM capabilities and product integration capabilities.
Incidentally, this has also pushed the market share of new energy vehicles up several levels again.
In Lei Jun's view, the current market is not yet mature.
Consumers have not fully embraced new energy vehicles, and their consumption habits have not changed completely.
Entering this field at this time will inevitably lead to situations where money is spent to cultivate user habits.
Lei Jun has always tried to avoid such a situation.
He only enters an industry when it is already quite mature.
This is true for industries such as refrigerators, televisions, washing machines, hair dryers, and range hoods.
After entering the market, they leveraged their strong cost control capabilities to create products with the best price-performance ratio, thereby capturing market share.
This tactic is indeed effective.
In many industries, Xiaomi was a latecomer, but it managed to surpass its competitors.
The core idea is to learn from others' experiences, thus avoiding unnecessary waste of costs, funds, and opportunities.
If possible, Lei Jun would certainly like to do the same in the field of new energy vehicles.
But things in this world rarely go as planned.
The emergence of Xuanwu Battery has accelerated the development of new energy vehicles and sounded the death knell for gasoline-powered cars.
In this process, vehicle brands that fail to adopt Xuanwu batteries in the first instance will be the first to be eliminated.
The remaining car manufacturers will inevitably be competing among car brands that use Xuanwu batteries.
If we wait until the market is fully mature, newcomers will likely have no chance at all.
Therefore, after Lei Jun came up with the idea of entering the new energy vehicle field, he pondered it repeatedly.
Ultimately, they couldn't let go of such a huge market as new energy vehicles.
In his vision, automobiles will be another application scenario for the Xmi ecosystem.
This can better maintain user engagement and brand loyalty.
This is very important for X-meters.
In the field of smart ecosystem, Galaxy Technology has surpassed Xmi. If Lei Jun doesn't want the project, in which he has invested so much effort and resources, to fail completely, he can only find other ways to salvage it.
New energy vehicles are the key to breaking the deadlock.
Even without the memories of the original timeline, with Wang Donglai's current intelligence, he had already figured this out in the blink of an eye.
“Developing a new car is not that simple. I don’t select users when it comes to supplying Xuanwu batteries.”
"At most, there will be some ranking when it comes to product supply."
"By the time when Mr. Lei's vehicle is finalized and ready to roll off the production line, I think Xuanwu Battery's production capacity will have already increased significantly."
"Therefore, Mr. Lei does not need to worry about the supply of Xuanwu batteries."
From a business perspective, Wang Donglai doesn't care about money.
But that doesn't mean we shouldn't earn the money we should.
New energy vehicles were originally intended as a breakthrough to circumvent the patents of gasoline-powered vehicles.
Since domestically produced technologies such as the three core electric systems have an advantage, it's natural to use domestically made ones.
Wang Donglai would not deliberately cut off orders from a certain brand based on personal preferences.
For every additional Xuanwu battery sold, one less battery will be sold overseas.
This is of great significance for increasing the domestic production rate.
Lei Jun also roughly guessed Wang Donglai's reply.
Based on his understanding of Wang Donglai, his reaction upon hearing that he was preparing to enter the new energy vehicle field was indeed as expected.
However, Lei Jun's motivation wasn't solely for the Xuanwu Battery.
He wants more!
He said what he had thought about many times: "Mr. Wang, Xmi Auto will be my last entrepreneurial venture."
"I will bet everything on this venture."
"I want to produce a truly domestically made, high-performance car for young people."
"Technological equality allows more people to enjoy the benefits of technological advancements."
"Actually, the philosophies of our two families are quite similar."
"I plan to invest 100 billion yuan in Xmi Auto for research and development."
"At the same time, I am also prepared to give up 20% of Xmi Auto's shares in exchange for a commitment from Galaxy Technology."
Lei Jun's tone was extremely calm and indifferent, as if this 20% stake was not worth mentioning.
Wang Donglai was not shocked by the 20% stake and calmly asked, "President Lei, may I ask what this promise worth 20 billion is?"
Lei Jun's eyes were extremely bright as he said, "I hope to obtain priority access to your company's technology licensing rights!"
Wang Donglai narrowed his eyes, a look of sudden realization flashing across his face.
I couldn't help but admire Lei Jun's actions.
To pay such a high price just for a patent licensing priority right, perhaps only Lei Jun, the founder, would have the courage to do so.
"I must say, Mr. Lei has great courage."
"I'm starting to wonder how Mr. Lei will convince the others to agree to this condition."
"Giving away 20 percent of the shares in exchange for just this promise will likely lead most people to believe there's some collusion involved."
Instead of directly responding to his opinion, Wang Donglai asked his question.
Upon hearing Wang Donglai's question, Lei Jun laughed and said, "If someone really thinks that way, I think it's a good thing."
"That way, I can pick out the fools and work with the smart ones. I think the chances of success will be much greater."
"Mr. Wang, what do you think?"
Wang Donglai also laughed and said, "What President Lei said makes sense."
"However, I'm afraid I have to apologize for the conditions proposed by Mr. Lei."
"I cannot accept a reward without merit; I cannot take 20% of the shares."
"If Mr. Lei wants to cooperate, we can sit down and discuss it together. There's no need to resort to this method."
Upon hearing this answer, a hint of disappointment visibly flashed across Lei Jun's face.
In fact, Lei Jun was taking a gamble when he made this request.
However, when he heard Wang Donglai refuse, the sliver of gambling in his mind instantly turned into regret.
Given Wang Donglai's capabilities, if the cooperation is truly finalized, he will likely profit handsomely. (End of Chapter)
