It seems the current situation is far more complex than imagined. Jiang Chuan bears a heavy and long-term burden in order to achieve his goal.

Back home, he gazed at his child and suddenly understood why the child was considered a savior.

Perhaps, in the chaos and conflict of the future, this child will step forward for some reason, leading everyone to eradicate evil forces around the world and ultimately achieve the reintegration of humanity.

After Jiang Chuan shared his suspicions with Xu Jiajia, the couple became deeply worried. After all, no one wanted to see their child embark on such a lonely and difficult path.

“However, it seems your children are destined to experience such a life,” the prophet said with a smile.

"You are incredibly wealthy, and with the strong support of the Great Shang Kingdom, your strength is now comparable to the combined output of some small African countries. You should be well aware of this."

It seems this is not a simple question. Clearly, the existing conditions are insufficient to truly grasp this principle.

"All right!"

Faced with this situation, everyone could only shake their heads helplessly. Although they didn't know the specifics of how to proceed, they were certain that the information they currently possessed was sufficient to allow them to begin their operation.

Now, it remains to be seen how they will implement the specific plans. If they can achieve their goal, that would be ideal.

Once everything was ready, they immediately began operations. However, this time, they still needed to discuss the matter directly with their superiors. Jiang Chuan returned to the office and explained the entire plan. His superiors immediately understood his intentions.

"You mean, from now on, you intend to use existing resources to build a new global network and extend the national platform to every corner, right?"

"Yes! This is indeed imperative. If we really want to solve the problem, we must first ensure that our weapons can be distributed and sold globally."

Although it sounded like a grand plan, the higher-ups understood that its implementation would not be easy. After all, each country had its own research institutions, and if unification were achieved, those scientists would inevitably flock to the Great Shang Kingdom.

In this way, the real beneficiaries will undoubtedly be Jiangchuan and the country's most powerful military industrial enterprises.

"Yes, that's why I'm discussing this with you. If you think it's feasible, I'll give it a try; if you think it's inappropriate, then let's drop it!"

Actually, the current situation isn't complicated. Achieving their goal isn't difficult; the key is to put in the necessary effort. Furthermore, they need to engage in both confrontation and cooperation with local arms dealers—either merging with them directly or defeating them.

Furthermore, the best approach is to proceed with this matter country by country.

After a moment of contemplation, the superiors felt that this was indeed a good opportunity.

"If the ultimate power to develop weapons is centralized in the hands of the nation, then many countries, including Atlantis, will have to rely on our protection. Moreover, as everyone knows, after the alien war and the space war, the fragmented state of humanity is no longer acceptable. Now that the Great Shang Kingdom is growing stronger, it is time for us to unleash our full potential."

"it is good!"

Since Jiang Chuan wants him to plan this matter carefully, why not take this opportunity to complete it first?

"This time, we fully support you. Tell me, where is your first stop?"

"I'd like to go to Europe first and see Chen Feifei while I'm there."

Chen Feifei is a top performer in the international arms sales field, and coupled with the strong capabilities of the European weapons research and development center, their current development momentum is very rapid.

Under these circumstances, Chen Feifei has clearly already acquired a certain level of strength.

Once everything was ready, Jiang Chuan led Chen Fei on their journey to Europe. They first found Chen Feifei in the central region.

"I never expected that you would actually come to the Kingdom of Gallic Chickens."

Having lived abroad for many years, Chen Feifei has a very clear understanding of many things. But if someone could bring her a little warmth from China, that would be wonderful.

"To be honest, so many years have passed, and so many things have piled up. The reason why the European region was able to achieve self-sufficiency was because my brother and I persevered. This time, you've come to see me because of something?"

"Sigh!" Jiang Chuan sighed softly. He knew very well that the question raised by Chen Feifei was no small matter.

"To be honest, I understand that doing this now is not easy. The demands for arms sales and research and development in Europe are getting higher and higher. Although everyone is united in this center, each country actually has its own little agenda, right?"

“That’s right! Now that you’re trying to create a monopoly, the first people to object will be the arms dealers who compete with you. To put it bluntly, your platform is like an arms supermarket, but you want to put your own label on everything in the supermarket, which is tantamount to cutting off other people’s livelihood.”

Therefore, Chen Feifei was not optimistic about the measures proposed by Jiang Chuan. However, when they heard Jiang Chuan's vision for the future, everyone's face showed difficulty.

"To be honest, if you promote this directly, it's like offending arms dealers all over the world. In the end, Atlantis is likely to be the one to benefit. They are making their final preparations now, and once they unleash their full power, you won't have time to react."

"Hmm..." Everyone could only shake their heads helplessly. Although they didn't know what this method meant, things seemed to be getting increasingly complicated.

"So, Mr. Xu, you need to think carefully about how to solve this problem. Should we form a direct partnership, or something else? I've heard that a joint venture is one way; we could contribute some technology to help them, which might be better."

"But the problem is, if we contribute our technology in a joint venture, they can learn from it. Once they make progress, what will we do then? After all, these arms dealers can't meet this requirement right now, and it's only because of you scientists who are supporting them."

Jiang Chuan was not optimistic about the joint venture approach because he knew that if these steps were followed, the final result would be predictable.

"Alright!" At this point, Chen Fei couldn't stand it anymore.

"Actually, the situation is quite simple. We don't need to selectively solve certain problems. Besides, I know that the higher-ups are very optimistic about this matter. So why don't we just take out our most advanced weapons and sell them directly online? If these people can keep up with us in the end, we can then bring out even more advanced weapons."

"No way!" Chen Feifei immediately objected.

"What you're doing will exacerbate tensions and trigger a global arms race. Europe will gradually improve its capabilities based on yours, and you can imagine the final outcome. Although we have many powerful weapons now, the consequences will be unimaginable once they master the technology. Do you understand?"

"Sigh!" Jiang Chuan sighed again.

"This won't work, that won't work, am I supposed to monopolize the global arms market? That's simply absurd and impossible!"

"Yes! At least at this stage, you can't meet that requirement. I think the global arms market is still in a state of flux, like the Warring States period. We're just one of the relatively stronger companies among them. To solve the problem directly, you have to start from the surrounding areas and gradually achieve mergers and acquisitions." According to Chen Feifei, this was feasible, but it couldn't be rushed. At least first, they needed to find a way to get the company some government support, and then acquire and merge with the weaker companies.

"Our primary task is to ensure everyone's survival. Acquisitions should start with small companies; perhaps we can acquire them, or perhaps we can invest in them. In any case, the situation is simple: we must have foresight, since our biggest advantage is our money."

In other words, continuing in the current manner would be pointless. After all, arms dealers worldwide have their own scientific teams.

"Okay!" Just like that, Jiang Chuan returned directly to the Great Shang Kingdom and, according to Chen Feifei's wishes, convened another board meeting.

"I still think the saying 'haste makes waste' still holds true. However, it seems that everyone hasn't found too many problems in this matter. At least now that the boss understands the situation, that would be great. I, Old Zhao, absolutely support your ideas."

"Alright! Then I'd like to ask if anyone has any other opinions? Especially Mr. Wang, you are a highly respected person, you must have some thoughts as well, right?"

Jiangchuan still needs the approval of these major shareholders.

"This time we have no reason to object. The reason is simple: you did the right thing. Don't rush to solve a problem."

“Since everyone agrees, I will proceed with this plan. However, how to achieve the merger of overseas conglomerates is indeed a completely new challenge.”

Given the current unclear situation of conglomerates around the world, Jiang Chuan and his team decided to set their sights on the ancient Yue Kingdom as their first target.

After experiencing upheavals and rebellions, Nguyen Van Hung has firmly grasped power in this country.

However, despite Nguyen Van Hung's exceptional abilities and unprecedented methods of governance, the military strength of the ancient Viet Kingdom did not improve as a result, and military experts seemed helpless.

At the same time, the country's economy did not improve significantly due to Nguyen Van Hung's rise. Although the country was able to keep running, the results were not satisfactory.

For a long time, the ancient Yue Kingdom was isolated from the world. Its only remaining economic force was the civilian company operated by Jiang Chuan. After years of development, this company had become a pillar of the national economy, contributing substantial taxes annually, driving urban development, and forming a unique urban cluster. Furthermore, its proximity to the powerful Shang Kingdom fueled the region's economic vitality.

“Good!” Jiang Chuan realized that since the Ancient Yue Kingdom was their first stop, they had to first understand the state of the country’s military industry.

After receiving support from his superiors, Jiang Chuan decided to travel to the ancient Yue Kingdom again.

Previously, due to various conflicts, people knew little about Giang Duan. But now, most of those officials have been replaced, and the national situation has been completely transformed. Meanwhile, Nguyen Van Hung's relationship with Giang Duan has become increasingly harmonious.

If it weren't for the frequent wars, Nguyen Van Hung would have long been looking forward to meeting Giang Xuyen.

Upon learning that Jiang Chuan intended to visit, Ruan Wenxiong was overjoyed and immediately began making arrangements.

Jiang Chuan, carrying the company's plans, once again set foot on the land of the ancient Yue Kingdom.

"You mean you want to develop the military industry in our country?" Ruan Wenxiong was still somewhat unclear about Jiang Chuan's purpose.

"Actually, there are two options. One is for us to directly invest in your military industry enterprises; the other is for us to cooperate with you and jointly establish a joint venture. Which option do you think is more suitable?"

"I just want to ask, if you can upgrade our military industry, can you make the whole country stronger?"

"Of course I can. That's exactly why I came here. If I can't even achieve this goal, what face do I have to stand before you?"

“Great!” Ruan Wenxiong was overjoyed upon hearing this. This was undoubtedly an excellent opportunity to prove that his decision was correct.

Although the specific situation is still unclear, it is already commendable that they have gained everyone's approval.

"Then we need to discuss the next steps carefully. After all, we don't know the specifics of the situation very well yet."

"Actually, I have two main ideas. One is to invest in your military industry enterprises and send technical experts to assist you. But in that case, your enterprises may have to be registered under our name."

This is the first option.

"The second option is that we invest in building factories in your country using production lines, while your military enterprises also participate. We will jointly establish a new company to carry out production."

Both options sound quite appealing. However, the final decision rests with Nguyen Van Hung.

In fact, everyone understands that the first option is basically a merger.

So, how should this matter be resolved? Or rather, how will people view it? It all depends on Nguyen Van Hung's decision.

"I'd like to ask you, do you have any special plans? If this is a good opportunity for cooperation, we could work together."

“I simply wanted to do something for my country. As you know, after experiencing a global war, I know that only we can save the world.”

Although it is unclear whether Nguyen Van Hung will accept this cooperation model, Giang Chuan is confident.

After a long period of competition and maneuvering, he had a thorough understanding of Nguyen Van Hung's personality and decision-making style.

“Okay!” Ruan Wenxiong smiled upon hearing this.

"Now that I control the entire country's military industry, let's go with your plan. I don't want to bother with any investment or factory construction; just use your weapons. You can choose to invest directly in factories, but our government must hold a controlling stake."

"No problem!" Jiang Chuan readily agreed.

Ultimately, they finalized the cooperation plan: the local government would hold 49% of the shares, while the remaining shares would belong entirely to Jiangchuan.

This meant that, from this moment on, the cooperation between the two companies officially entered a new phase. However, after this news spread around the world, it caused a huge uproar. Many arms dealers were worried and speculated about Jiang Chuan's true intentions.

Left with no other option, Jiang Chuan held a press conference immediately upon returning to China. He stated that everything was as expected, and regardless of who ultimately bore the responsibility, these measures were necessary. (End of Chapter)
