Anyone with a discerning eye in China can see that fuel vehicles have a first-mover advantage abroad, and the automobile industry is so powerful that almost no one can rival it. China wants to overtake in corners, so it is betting on new energy vehicles. This is the general trend and the future.

Thanks to his internal connections, Tan Zongming knew the general intention of cooperation between the Shanghai Municipal Government and Tesla: low-priced land and large low-interest loans could be provided, but Tesla had to meet the expected tax payment and the Shanghai Municipal Government's special conditions. Tesla Gigafactory must use Chinese components as much as possible to complete Tesla's localization.

In Tan Zongming's view, the official move has profound meaning. The fundamental reason for the success of fuel vehicles in the past was not due to Volkswagen, Toyota, BBA and other car brands, but because the supply chain in the era of fuel vehicles was almost completely in the hands of foreign companies. This has established insurmountable patent barriers. Supply chain giants such as Bosch, Aisin, Denso, and Schaeffler have almost determined the development direction and market structure of global fuel vehicles.

In the new era, China has strong and complete technical strength in the upstream and downstream supply chains of new energy vehicles...

"Hello."

Musk politely clinked glasses with Tan Zongming.

While Tan Zongming tried his best to get close to Musk, Bai Ye brought Andy to the banquet in a low-key manner.

"The popularity of your little brother far exceeds yours." Andy smiled.

"Isn't this normal?" Bai Ye shrugged and said, "I came to China for tourism, but he came with tens of billions of dollars of investment! In this era, whoever spends the money is the boss. Ah! And no matter how powerful he is in front of outsiders, he still has to call me boss when he comes in front of me."

really.

After Musk saw Bai Ye, his eyes lit up. He didn't care about Tan Zongming next to him. He quickly raised his glass and walked over quickly. When he came to Bai Ye, he lowered his head slightly and shouted happily: "Boss." "

Because Musk knows very well that no matter how prominent he is in front of others, behind the scenes, without the protection of Osborne and Stark, there are probably many people who are capable of killing him with eight bullets in the back.

"Old Ma, you have gained weight again, so you still have to pay attention to losing weight."

Bai Ye smiled and patted Musk on the shoulder.

"The main reason is that I'm too busy at work and don't even have enough time to sleep. How can I have time to lose weight?" Musk spread his hands and said with a smile: "How about boss, give me a period of leave?"

Tan Zongming saw Bai Ye talking and laughing with Musk, and when he saw that even Andy seemed to know Musk well, Tan Zongming was really surprised: What is going on?

He hurriedly came over again: "Andy, it turns out that you and Mr. Musk also know each other?"

Andy thought for a while: "Didn't I tell you that Osborne is also one of Tesla's shareholders?"

"No!" Tan Zongming said aggrievedly: "If I had known that there was such a relationship, would I still have had to go through all the trouble to talk to Mr. Musk?"

Musk was surprised: "Miss Andy, is this?"

Bai Ye said: "This Tan Zongming, Mr. Tan, is Andy's old classmate at Columbia University, and he is also a very good friend. When Andy returned to China, he helped organize a lot of things. Tesla came to China to establish Gigafactory, if there is anything that can help Mr. Tan, please help him."

"OK." Musk said, "You are the boss, so of course you have the final say."

He put his arms around Tan Zongming's shoulders and laughed: "Mr. Tan, you are Miss Andy's friend, that is my friend. Let's get together when we are free in the future."

"sure."

Tan Zongming was flattered and never expected that he would be treated like this.

At the banquet, many colleagues who had similar thoughts to Tan Zongming couldn't help but feel envious and jealous when they saw that Tan Zongming had taken the lead and was able to be so close to Musk, and wondered: How did this guy do it? Arrived?

Obviously everyone has seen Musk's lukewarm attitude towards Tan Zongming before.

Why did you suddenly change your attitude?

"Lao Ma, how are the talks about Tesla's Gigafactory project going?" Bai Ye asked after taking a sip of red wine.

Musk shrugged and said: "Each city has tried its best to provide its own advantages and conditions, and they are all pretty much the same. I am considering which city to settle in is in Tesla's best interests. If there are no surprises, I I still plan to settle in the Magic City, because in addition to various advantages, there are also things here that other cities cannot have...such as financial centers, ports, industrial clusters, fashionable atmosphere, etc."

Bai Ye nodded slightly.

The most powerful advantage of Tesla settling in Shanghai is that it can complete Tesla's "4-hour circle of friends": many auto parts companies in surrounding cities have improved the supply chain, and the Tesla factory can complete the production of a car in 4 hours. Assemble.

"Hey, Brother Bai, so you are here too?"

Inexplicably, this guy Zhao Ruilong came out of nowhere, looking like he was very familiar with Bai Ye.

Musk suddenly frowned. This person also talked to him in the past two days, but he was very vulgar, which made him dislike it, so he didn't pay much attention to him.

He carefully looked at Bai Ye's face, and found that Bai Ye looked calm, and immediately understood that he was not the boss's friend.

"Boss, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first?" Musk said immediately.

"Ah."

Bai Ye nodded gently.

"Hey." As soon as Zhao Ruilong arrived, he saw Musk running away, and he became a little anxious: "Brother Bai, I just arrived, so why did Musk leave? I have something to discuss with him."

"Brother Long, what can you do with Musk?" Bai Ye said with a smile: "Don't you want to order a few special cars from him? For example, a gold version of Tesla?"

"Where do I have so much money! Brother Bai, you are just kidding!" Zhao Ruilong said: "Tesla is going to build a super factory in China. As for me, you know the situation, and I just want to do my part for my hometown. , if we can bring Tesla to Handong to invest, wouldn’t that benefit the villagers?”

Ha ha!

No wonder Musk can run so fast.

He can make clean money on his own, so why should he mess with Zhao Ruilong and taint his own money?

Musk knows how powerful he is, and he doesn’t want to be arrested and detained like the guy in the House of Representatives.

"Brother Long, you are the source of energy for the folks. What else do we need for Tesla? It's all superfluous." Bai Ye said with a smile.

"Although I'm happy when you praise me, brother, I'm not happy when you let Musk go." Zhao Ruilong grabbed Bai Ye's arm and said, "No, you have to compensate me! Others don't know, I did a thorough research on the information when I came here. You, Osborne, are one of Tesla's major shareholders. You have to help me with the Tesla Gigafactory!"

What a chicken you are.

Open your mouth and say a few words.

Do you want me to help you move the Tesla Gigafactory to Handong?

I owe you so much.

"Brother Long, you also said that Osborne is only one of Tesla's shareholders, and he does not control Tesla." Bai Ye said: "As the CEO of Tesla, Master must be responsible for all shareholders. When doing things for the sake of business interests, I just have to speak more and have some say."

"What we need is this little say." Zhao Ruilong said: "We all have similar conditions for Tesla, and our situation in Handong is not any worse than that in Magic City. If you help again If we say a few words, the matter will be settled."

Bai Ye still made various excuses.

Of course, Zhao Ruilong didn't dare to throw a tantrum on such an occasion, because the Tesla Gigafactory was such a big deal, and maybe people more powerful than his father would come.

"Okay, okay! I finally understand. It's really difficult to do something for the folks." Zhao Ruilong sighed and said, "Although I didn't have high hopes before coming here, this is not the time to meet you, Brother Bai." Are you there? I'm still trying to find a breakthrough from you. You can't make the decision, and you have to let me lick that Musk's ditch... Damn it, you Chinese people with upright labor and management, I won't lick the ghost guy's ditch! "

"Of course, this matter will not affect my relationship with you, Brother Bai. As a businessman, I also believe that favors are favors and business is business."

"Brother Long, I wish you could understand my difficulties." Bai Ye nodded.

"Well, Brother Bai, it's better to choose the right day than to hit it. I've put down a lot of business during this period because of Tesla's affairs, and now I'm free. Why don't I take you to visit Handong? I'll tell you. Ah, the scenery in our Handong is so beautiful now. If you don’t go and take a look, it’s really a waste of time!” Zhao Ruilong strongly invited Bai Ye to visit Handong.

In Bai Ye's view, Zhao Ruilong must have not given up the idea of ​​​​locating the Tesla Gigafactory in Handong. He took him to Handong for a few rounds. It was clear that he had some things that were difficult to bring to the table in private.

Bai Ye wanted to refuse.

But Zhao Ruilong said that there are many beauties in Handong, and many girls from poor areas have been attracted to work as technicians, and their standards are very high.

In addition, a real estate developer also owns a large singing and dancing troupe, which has won many awards for singing and dancing. The girls in it are as soft as snakes.

When Bai Ye heard this, his heart was inevitably a little turbulent.

How about... go take a look?

Anyway, he had said before that when getting along with Zhao Ruilong, he would eat and drink from him, but not do anything for him.

Moreover, Zhao Ruilong himself said that the purpose of inviting him this time was to connect with the brothers.

Then he just needs to pretend to be stupid, just enjoy it, and pretend not to understand anything else, right?

In any case, there is no way that Bai Ye would just agree to go out when the Tesla Gigafactory is settled because of what happened to Jill.

So Bai Ye told Andy.

"No, where are you really going to play with that kind of bastard?" Andy glanced at Zhao Ruilong warily and said, "That's not a good thing."

"What you said makes me feel like a good thing." Bai Ye shrugged and said, "Don't worry, Kane and Gao Jin are with me. As long as I don't want to do anything, he will do it." What if you have the ability to force me to do it?"

Andy thought for a while, and there was nothing wrong with it.

She was habitually afraid that Bai Ye would be led astray by a bastard like Zhao Ruilong, but no matter how bad Zhao Ruilong was, could he be worse than Bai Ye?

Baiye was in the United States, but he used dump trucks to kill his business competitors at any time, and even dispatched mercenaries to destroy his opponents' overseas military bases. Would Zhao Ruilong dare to do this?

So let Bai Ye go play with Zhao Ruilong, and he only has to worry about Zhao Ruilong being led astray by Bai Ye.

"Okay." Andy was too lazy to care about Bai Ye's trivial matters: "But I remind you again, don't get too involved with him."

"How is that possible?" Bai Ye said as if he was insulted: "Look at the frustration on his face? How can I mess with him? If I want to mess with him, I must mess with a beautiful woman."

Andy: "..."

She rolled her eyes at Bai Ye: "I don't have to worry about you bastard anymore."

Bai Ye followed Zhao Ruilong.

The two first took Zhao Ruilong's private plane to Handong.

Zhao Ruilong saw that Bai Ye was particularly interested in the song and dance troupe, so he took Bai Ye to visit the song and dance troupe in his car instead of taking him to Jingzhou first.

"Brother Bai, I'm not bragging to you. This song and dance troupe is both talented and beautiful. They have looks that even many women are jealous of, they have coveted talents, and they have extremely hot bodies. My figure, Brother Bai, you’ll know after you try one, it’s amazing!”

Zhao Ruilong talked endlessly about the goodness of this song and dance troupe to Bai Ye, and Bai Ye's words... In fact, he didn't need to say more, he had also heard a little about this song and dance troupe. In his previous life, he could only taste their sweetness, but in this life, he can taste their saltiness. , he is also super looking forward to it.

On the way Zhao Ruilong drove Bai Ye, he passed a place called Jinghai.

Just when Zhao Ruilong took out his mobile phone and shared his happiness with Bai Ye, suddenly, a violent vibration broke the tranquility.

A group of speedsters came speeding from behind.

Like wild horses running wild, the group of speedsters crashed into them desperately, without even seeming to see a car in front of them.

Before Zhao Ruilong could react, an off-road motorcycle slammed into his car.

For a moment, the sound of metal colliding was harsh and sharp.

Zhao Ruilong: "..."

Brother Long is very embarrassed now. When he was talking to Bai Ye, he boasted that Handong is his one-third of an acre of land. When Bai Ye comes to his territory, he promises to take care of Bai Ye comfortably. Enjoy the one-stop service in Baiye and return to the United States happily.

But I didn't expect that it didn't take long before I was slapped in the face.

A group of racing gangs were now roaming the road unscrupulously, even hitting his car...

Mudd!

How could Zhao Ruilong tell Bai Ye that the conditions in Handong were good and bring Tesla's Gigafactory project to Handong?

Zhao Ruilong's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

But this was not what Zhao Ruilong wanted to do. It was that this group of bikers did not think that the matter would end like this. When they saw their compatriots being injured after crashing into Zhao Ruilong's car, they surrounded Zhao Ruilong's car with provocation and madness on their faces and dangerous light flashing in their eyes. They intended to force the car to stop and even deliberately rammed the car with off-road motorcycles. Every collision caused Zhao Ruilong's Mercedes-Benz to shake violently.

"parking!"

Zhao Ruilong shouted with a dark face.

The car stopped.

"Brother Bai, I'm sorry for making you laugh." Zhao Ruilong apologized: "I wanted to show my face in front of you today, but I didn't expect to show my butt in front of you. You were frightened, don't worry, this is okay, brother I must give you an explanation! Otherwise, my surname will not be Zhao."

"Brother Long, no need to be polite about small things." Bai Ye suppressed his laughter.

Who could have imagined it?

Zhao Ruilong was surrounded by a group of gangsters.

But there are some things in this world that are so funny. When you are so powerful that you feel like a god looking down on all living beings, only to be killed by an unknown little person.

Wasn't Li Zicheng beheaded by a farmer?

Zhao Ruilong opened the car door, and immediately five or six bodyguards in black suits protected Zhao Ruilong behind him - Zhao Ruilong was in a group of three cars. He and Bai Ye were sitting in the middle, but they couldn't hold up more than 20 off-road motorcycles. They were stunned. The crowd was packed with water.

"Hey, Baldhead!" A red-haired boy, who looked like the leader of a speeding gang, came over and looked at Zhao Ruilong from above: "Who asked you to block our way? Didn't you inform me under Jinghai today? This road The road is closed. We brothers want to race. Didn’t you see that there is no other car on this road? You actually broke in? What are you doing? Are you looking for death?"

Bald?

Zhao Ruilong's face was twisted and he was about to explode.

People, the more they lack something, the angrier they are and make fun of them. Zhao Ruilong is indeed half-bald and has a high hairline, but where has anyone dared to call him bald to his face in the past?

In the entire Handong, no one dared.

But Zhao Ruilong happened to meet him today.

There is nothing that a fledgling gangster wouldn't dare to do if he is passionate.

Even the old Jianghu fights are afraid of that stupid young man.

"Boy, you are so awesome in Jinghai, does your father know?" Zhao Ruilong looked at the red-haired boy coldly: "The road was built by your family, and you will close the road if you say it? I live in Handong I have never seen someone as awesome as you in my entire life! Can Handong allow someone as awesome as you to exist?"

If he knew whose family this red-haired boy belonged to today, he would promise to punish his family to death, not even giving face to Jinghai's father's distant cousin.
