After divorce, I can hear the voice of the future

Chapter 627 The Butterfly Effect
"I should come less often before giving birth, otherwise I always feel like I'm just a tool."

Lu Liang Sheng lay on the bed, utterly dejected. After half an hour of intense passion, his hairstyle remained perfectly intact; he simply lay there and enjoyed the entire experience.

In contrast, Wang Chuting had a dazed look in her eyes, a flushed face, and sweat-soaked hair that clung to her cheeks, giving her a disheveled yet beautiful appearance.

She glanced at Lu Liang, cupped her lower abdomen with both hands, and dared not laugh too hard: "You think you weren't like that before?"

Seeing Lu Liang's displeasure, Wang Chuting chuckled and quickly hugged his arm, acting cute and charming: "I know you're worried about me and afraid I'll get hurt."

Before she met Lu Liang, she knew that mistresses were not treated particularly well; they were only glamorous on the outside but were actually just tools for sexual gratification.

This viewpoint changed after I met Lu Liang; perhaps Lu Liang is the only exception.

Aside from a few matters of principle, Lu Liang was willing to accommodate her in most things, cared about her a lot, and would confide in her.

For example, she could start her own studio and use her connections to contact business friends in the early stages to create a Hall of Fame series, thus making her self-media account a hit.

This kind of treatment is something other bigwigs' mistresses probably wouldn't even dare to dream of, because for them, mistresses only need to be good canaries. Some even go so far as to clip their wings for easier control, leaving them only able to hop around in a cage.

Wang Chuting, who grew up in a single-parent family, has always lacked a sense of security. She once thought that she could only play the leading lady in her life and that she could only rely on herself for the rest of her life.

But she never expected to feel safe and reliable with Lu Liang, which even made her, who had decided to live a solitary life, choose to get pregnant.

It should be noted that she offered herself to him voluntarily in order to secure her future; her motives were quite pragmatic.

So much so that now, Lu Liang is a perfect man in her eyes. Perhaps it was God's way of making up for the difficulties she had in the first half of her life that brought Lu Liang into her life.

"This sentence, at least, sounds like a human being."

Lu Liang chuckled, resting his head on his left hand and wrapping his right arm around Wang Chuting's neck, his fingertips drawing circles on her chest.

After a moment of contemplation, he suddenly said, "When your due date is approaching, go to Hong Kong and give birth to the baby there."

Wang Chuting frowned slightly, unable to help but worry: "Wasn't her child born in England? Isn't now the right time?"

Lu Liang's eldest daughter was born in the UK and, barring any unforeseen circumstances, still holds British citizenship.

If the second son is also born in Hong Kong, what will the higher-ups think?

Besides, things don't seem to be very peaceful in Hong Kong right now.

"Don't worry about what they think. If you have a choice, why not choose?"

Lu Liang's lips curled into a sneer as he thought of some recent events in Hong Kong: "Some clowns can't stir up any trouble. Don't be fooled by the huge online uproar; the only real troublemakers who dare to step forward are a few idiots."

Hong Kong people don't really miss those days of being treated like dogs, after all, no one wants to live a life of dependence on others. The recent uproar is ultimately caused by a sense of imbalance in their feelings.

It should be noted that since the last century, Hong Kong has been ranked as the world's most overworked city and the world's most densely populated city.

Back then, the mainland hadn't developed yet, and although Hong Kong people lived in birdcages, ate fast food, and lived a life worse than dogs, they had the advantage of very high salaries.

Even ordinary white-collar workers can take a trip to Shenzhen during their weekend leisure time, keep a mistress, and live a middle-class quality life in Xiangxi Village to soothe the boredom of the workday.

However, in recent years, the mainland has developed rapidly, with e-commerce, express delivery, food delivery, and mobile payment flourishing, and importantly, the products are of good quality and inexpensive.

Hong Kong people suddenly realized that their sense of superiority had vanished.

Some mainlanders, in particular, often look at them with pity.

After all, they earn 30,000 to 50,000 yuan a month, but when you look at where they live, it's not even as big as their toilet. With this kind of quality of life, they still want to find a sense of superiority in them? They must be dreaming.

As a result, some Hong Kong residents lost their composure and, encouraged by certain individuals, started causing trouble.

Hearing Lu Liang say this, Wang Chuting put aside her worries and suddenly hugged him like a monkey: "I'll listen to you."

"How can I sleep if I'm being held like this?"

"I'm pregnant!"

"so?"

Lu Liang glared at him, picked up his pajamas from the floor, walked to the next room, and casually locked the door.

Wang Chuting said with a resentful look, "You bastard, I finally had a good impression of you, and now you're turning your back on me."

The following day, public opinion surrounding Meng Wanqiu's arrest intensified.

As has happened countless times before, once public anger is stirred up, it's like a car speeding out of control; no one knows what will happen next.

Through bottom-up public opinion, Huawei was transformed from a victim into the biggest beneficiary without anyone noticing.

With national support and public backing, long queues formed at physical stores, and the latest mobile phones sold out quickly on online shopping malls.

It also seems to signal the official end of the decade-long battle for the top spot among domestic mobile phone brands.

Before this, the mobile phone industry consisted only of Apple and others; from now on, it will likely be Apple and others.

"Did Lei Zi anticipate this move?"

The mobile phone industry's competitors fell silent, suddenly recalling Xiaomi's entry into the new energy sector at the beginning of the year, despite the pressure of its stock price falling below its IPO price. At the time, many competitors mocked Lei Jun for being foolish, but looking back now, it seems they were the ones who were foolish.

Because there can only be one king of domestic mobile phones, Huawei successfully ascended to the top and became a legend by upholding the banner of patriotism.

Unless it collapses, other mobile phone brands will only be its underlings.

Three months ago, Xiaomi made a brilliant move by withdrawing from the market and venturing into a new arena.

"New energy?!"

On this day, executives from numerous mobile phone manufacturers, along with investors, held an emergency internal meeting.

Although competition in the new energy industry is even more intense, no domestic leader has yet emerged in this sector.

It's not too late for them to enter now.

It's just four wheels, plus a smartphone, with the smartphone being the key component; that's their specialty.

On that day, executives from brands such as DeepBlue, Leapmotor, Voyah, and Avita received calls from CEOs of major mobile phone manufacturers.

Although it's just four wheels and a smartphone, mobile phone manufacturers are outsiders after all. The best way to understand an industry quickly is to invest first, then develop cooperation, and finally recruit people to create their own brand.

Even Lu Liang received numerous invitations from mobile phone manufacturers, as the sales rankings for new energy vehicle brands in June were officially released today.

In May, due to production capacity limitations, Tian Shu could only rank 26th. In June, it was only 329 units away from entering the top ten in sales.

However, ranking 11th and delivering 1.28 units in June is already quite remarkable.

Moreover, there are over 100,000 pre-orders. Once production capacity is fully unleashed, it may be able to rival BYD's Qin model, which delivers over 30,000 units per month.

There's an even more important reason for contacting Lu Liang: he's the behind-the-scenes controller of the Loushui New Energy Industrial Park.

On May 1st, in addition to hosting a new energy vehicle exhibition, Suzhou also held a new energy parts supplier exhibition.

Within three days, a cooperation order worth tens of billions was reached, and as time went on, mass production began.

It is no exaggeration to say that Loushui is the largest concentration of new energy industries in the country, and it has become an unavoidable choice for any car company.

They contacted Lu Liang, hoping he could help make some introductions, and if possible, also help them contact the Suzhou Municipal Government.

Although Asu does not have an airport, since investing in the Loushui Industrial Zone, it has been determined to build Sucheng into a city of new energy technology.

The initial results are now visible, and a cluster effect has begun to emerge for companies interested in engaging in the new energy industry.

After all, to gain a deep understanding of an industry, in addition to investing in related industries, one must also delve into its core.

Suzhou is the heartland of new energy.

"No problem, no problem. I'll introduce you to Director Wu from the investment promotion department."

Lu Liang spent the entire morning dealing with phone calls. Just when things finally calmed down, Old Zeng from Ningde called again.

"Mr. Lu, do you think there's any potential in our development of prefabricated vehicles?" Old Zeng asked.

Since the beginning of this year, the new energy market has been crowded with various players, and now a large number of companies want to enter the market.

There's also some internal turmoil within Ningde Times; they're not content with just providing power batteries or being a supplier.

However, they are well aware of the reasons why everyone is so keen to cooperate with BYD, even though BYD's blade battery is more energy efficient.

Because they are not vehicle manufacturers, people prefer to cooperate with Ningde Times rather than BYD.

Ningde doesn't plan to develop complete vehicles; instead, they plan to develop a chassis platform system that allows others to simply put on a car body and use it directly—what he calls a prefabricated vehicle.

Lu Liang is not only a shareholder of Ningde, but also a non-executive director of the board and an investor. It is only right and proper to inform him.

"As long as it brings benefits to the company, I have no objection." Lu Liang couldn't help but chuckle; Zeng Minqun, that old fox, was testing him again.

He was just acting on behalf of Heaven, helping Cheng Wei drive Liu Qing out of Didi. Why should he be on guard against him like Zhang Yiming?

He, Mr. Lu, has a very good reputation in the investment world.

"With your words of comfort, Mr. Lu, I feel relieved." Old Zeng smiled, his eyes crinkling, showing no embarrassment at having his little scheme exposed.

Shortly after ending his call with Zeng Minqun, Lu Liang picked up his phone and checked Ningde Times' market value, which had already exceeded 4000 billion.

Is this the butterfly effect?

Perhaps we won't even have to wait until May 2021, at the latest it might be next year, and Ningde Times will be able to break through the trillion-yuan market value mark.

　The New Year is over, and all my childhood friends are going to the city to work.

　　I'm going out for a late-night snack and will be back later. There are still two chapters to go before dawn.
