My capital is quite large.

Chapter 446 Eating from Both Sides?

"However, Mr. Li, a highly eligible bachelor renowned throughout Dongda University, has amassed a fortune at a young age, yet remains unmarried... Aren't your father and mother worried?"

Pony smiled and hinted:

"My daughter is also very quiet and reserved..."

"Cough! Cough cough!!"

Before Pony could even explain the sales pitch for her daughter!

Li Feng's alarm bells went off, and he quickly cut the subject back:

"Mr. Ma! Business is important, business is important!"

……

Early the next morning.

A new change that caught the hundreds of millions of gamers across East China University off guard has quietly arrived!

While countless young gamers, just waking up, skillfully open the League of Legends client on their computers, or turn on Honor of Kings or PUBG Mobile on their phones, ready to recharge and buy skins...

Everyone was astonished to discover:

On the recharge page that Alipay has long dominated, a new row of green icons has suddenly appeared—

WeChat Pay!

"Holy crap?! Am I seeing things?! Haofeng's games support WeChat Pay now?!"

"Really?! Didn't they not even provide an API for WeChat login before?!"

Before the players could even recover from this shock...

Within half a day, more ordinary netizens discovered that this change was not an isolated case in any particular game!

iQiyi's VIP renewal page now supports WeChat Pay!

Bilibili's battery donation and premium membership top-up services now support WeChat Pay!

Even the short video app Yin Fu, which boasts hundreds of millions of daily active users, has integrated WeChat Pay into its wallet and tipping system!

Fully connected!

Over the past few years, the payment barrier that Haofeng's products relied on except for Alibaba's systems has been breached overnight!

Countless netizens and tech bloggers posted on Weibo expressing their astonishment:

"I can't believe it!! Haofeng and Penguin have broken the ice?!"

"Just a few years ago they were fighting tooth and nail in court, and now they're practically inseparable? The world of capitalism is just too surreal!!"

however!

Just as the entire internet was speculating whether Boss Li had sided with Tencent and was preparing to join forces to besiege Jack Ma in Hangzhou.

A new strategic cooperation announcement jointly released by Alibaba and Haofeng Group has left all self-proclaimed smart analysts completely bewildered!

Alibaba Group and Haofeng Group have reached a deeper strategic alliance: Tmall and Taobao's core supply chains will be fully integrated into the Yinfu Live Streaming e-commerce ecosystem!

The announcement stated in black and white:

Throughout the upcoming summer sales season, Alibaba products in the livestream shopping cart will enjoy exclusive, large-scale official cash subsidies!

In the end, when users place an order directly through the app, the price is actually 10-20% cheaper than searching for the same product on Taobao on their mobile phones!

This not only stunned netizens, but also left financial analysts from major investment banks bewildered!

"Wait... what kind of operation is this?!"

"Jingxi and Pinduoduo are fighting tooth and nail with Alibaba, and Li, as a major shareholder of both companies, is now using musical notes to help Taobao sell goods?!"

"On one hand, they're integrating WeChat Pay to help Tencent grab a share of Alibaba's payment market, and on the other hand, they're using Alibaba's supply chain to help Yinfu E-commerce earn commissions?!"

"Who the hell is Haofeng on?!"

……

While the outside world is talking about the complicated and tangled relationship between the three giants of Dongda Internet,

Inside Hall 1 of the Yanjing International Convention and Exhibition Center.

A grand event for emerging electric vehicle manufacturers, attracting significant attention from the capital market, is unfolding under the spotlight.

This is the concept launch event for Future Auto's new flagship model, one of the three musketeers of domestic car manufacturing.

In the second row of VIP seats inside the press conference venue, Dilraba, dressed in fashionable designer casual wear, sat listlessly among a group of investors in suits.

Originally, according to the internal investment decision of Jiaxing Media, the plan was to go all in on Ideal.

However, a few days ago, Li Bin, the future founder of Jiaxing, who had learned of Jiaxing's investment intentions, somehow managed to get a very high-profile invitation letter to Yang Mi through someone's connections.

With the mindset of "it's better to take a chance than not" and "it's never a loss to see what happens," Yang Mi arranged for Reba, her trusted lieutenant, to go and test the waters for this future.

However, this inspection, which was originally just a formality, took a turn for the worse halfway through the press conference.

On stage, founder Li Bin was passionately describing the future of high-end services and battery swapping models.

Meanwhile, Wang Yishi, the future boss's wife who was sitting in the audience and in charge of receiving the VIPs, inexplicably adopted a superior attitude after learning that the popular star in front of her was representing Yang Mi and Jiaxing Capital to investigate investment intentions.

Wang Yishi was an English news anchor in her early years and has a unique arrogance characteristic of public intellectuals.

In her view, Yang Mi and Dilraba, along with other actresses in period dramas, are nothing more than a group of nouveau riche actors who have benefited from the era's prosperity.

Even if they have hundreds of millions of dollars in spare cash, once they enter the highly technical car manufacturing industry, they can only obediently become ATMs.

"Xiao Di, it seems you're still very confident in our future product concept, since you were able to take the time to come today."

During the interaction with the audience, Wang Yishi repeatedly called Xiao Di "Xiao Di," her tone revealing a sense of superiority as if she were in charge.

"Building cars requires passion and vision; it's not something you can achieve by simply making a couple of period soap operas in the film and television industry."

"If you really want to get involved and invest in our future, it will definitely elevate your public image to a whole new level."

Although Dilraba is not very thoughtful, that doesn't mean she's stupid!

The owner of a startup car company who spends her days begging for funding in the venture capital world with PowerPoint presentations...

How could he put on such a condescending attitude right in front of her?

How is this disrespectful to Dilraba?

They clearly treated Yang Mi, the big sister behind her, as a pushover that could be easily manipulated!

However, as a public figure, Dilraba still needs to be mindful of her public image.

She could only put on a professional fake smile and politely brush them off.

……

As soon as the press conference ended, the self-satisfied boss lady came up to her again.

She didn't even bother with pleasantries, and with an air of absolute certainty, she asked, chin held high:

"So, Xiao Di? After watching the whole demonstration, what do you think of our future car?"

"How much are you planning to have your honey sister invest?"

Faced with this relentless pressure, Dilraba slowly stood up from her chair.

She took off her large sunglasses, revealing her flawless and stunning face in front of the camera, and looked down at the boss lady who was half a head shorter than her.

"Ms. Wang, I'm so sorry."

Dilraba crossed her arms and spoke in a sweet tone:

"I'm just here today to be an eye for Sister Mi and broaden my horizons."

"As for whether your car is good or not..."

Dilraba looked Wang Yishi up and down, then smiled lightly:

"How to invest, whether to invest or not, how much to invest...?"

"At Jiaxing, Sister Mi is the one who calls the shots."

"A minor celebrity like me isn't qualified to make decisions for our boss."
