Zhou Qiang watched the press conference quietly.
Of course he was aware of the wailing in the stock market.
But there is no way.
This is technological change.
Any technological change will bring about pain.
It is better for everyone to proceed in a gradual manner.
But Zhou Qiang didn't have time to wait.
He is not a saint and needs to take everyone into consideration.
In fact, it is under the strategic needs of the country.
Many things can be sacrificed.
For example, the stock value of some investors.
But this sacrifice will not be too great.
Because Mammoth Heavy Industry will have even bigger plans to carry out in the future.
If you eat alone, you will monopolize the market.
It will not make Mammoth Heavy Industries a true global super giant.
The launch of Mammoth Automobile is just the beginning of a plan.
"Dad, there's an important call coming in."
Zhou Xianxian's figure appeared.
She formed a virtual figure and stood in front of Zhou Qiang.
After saying that.
Then he sat down on the sofa without any hesitation.
Zhou Qiang nodded and said, "Go to the study."
The person who could make Zhou Xianxian talk about such an important phone call must be someone extraordinary.
Something that had long been imagined.
Arrived in the study, as the communication was connected.
The characters that appear can be seen on the news every day in the Eastern Country.
Minister of State Energy.
For senior executives in this position, they certainly know who the real mastermind behind Mammoth Heavy Industries is.
It is because of this knowledge that one is amazed at this young man.
Who would have thought that he is so young, but he would be the boss of Mammoth Heavy Industries?
Young but low-key, he almost lives a reclusive life.
I even rarely pay attention to things happening in the company.
If it's not an important matter, he hardly shows up.
"Minister, I know why you are here."
Zhou Qiang smiled faintly.
He faced this ministerial-level figure directly with a very natural demeanor.
"First of all, congratulations on your success in scientific research."
“But we wanted to hear something different.”
The Energy Minister said.
Zhou Qiang nodded and said, "Minister, there will be a new press conference soon, which will contain the answers you want."
"But you should know."
“Once this plan was put forward, it had a huge impact.”
"For example, with the fat piece of meat that is Mammoth Heavy Industry, naturally some people will think about how to cut a piece off."
“My attitude is simple.”
"It is better to die in glory than to live in dishonor."
"I am personally patriotic, otherwise Mammoth Heavy Industries would not exist in the country."
“It was born abroad.”
"Technology transfer is actually not that difficult, what do you think?"
Of course, the Minister of Energy knew what this meant.
He stared at Zhou Qiang for a few seconds before he said, "I can't give you an answer, because you know that I can't promise anything in my position."
"But I can only say that I will do my best to maintain Mammoth Heavy Industries."
Zhou Qiang nodded.
This call was actually just a contact between the two parties.
New energy is very important to the great Eastern country.
National strategy.
There is no room for error, and there is no room for mistake.
Therefore, they may give careful consideration to new energy sources.
One is to enable the national strategy to be realized, while the other is to achieve nothing.
They know the importance of things.
After ending the communication, Zhou Qiang didn't take this matter to heart.
After all, he was ready.
"Xianxian, book a flight to Africa as soon as possible."
"Okay, Dad!"
Zhou Xianxian completed the ticket booking in almost milliseconds.
Want to leave the Eastern country.
Zhou Qiang has plenty of ways to do it, and no one can do it without him noticing.
But Zhou Qiang chose this traceable method, which is actually a warning.
Zhou Qiang was not confused, but he really wanted to go to Africa.
Part of my plan is in Africa.
This move is made for the super business empire of Mammoth Heavy Industry.
A super business empire without military force.
It seems powerful, but even if someone wants to make a move, they have to think twice.
But in the end, it was held in someone's hand.
So, what about a super business empire with global armed forces?
What Zhou Qiang thought of was the East India Company, the most famous company in the Age of Discovery.
A company called a company, but with armed strength greater than most countries.
It is the ultimate form of a company.
It’s a pity that the dissolution of the East India Company is full of mystery and too much helplessness.
Zhou Qiang has everything. Even compared to the East India Company, the trump card Zhou Qiang has is much more powerful.
The naval warships in his hands are enough to make Zhou Qiang's maritime power rank among the top ten in the world.
This is just the beginning.
The zombie army under Zhou Qiang's command is the most terrifying.
Even if it is the United States, Zhou Qiang is not afraid at all.
It can even be said that if they really encounter each other on the ocean, Zhou Qiang will overturn the United States' huge ocean fleet.
Zhou Qiang, who owns ten thousand mutated flying fish, just needs to add warheads.
Even if there are 10,000 super torpedoes, how many warships can be destroyed?
This is Zhou Qiang’s confidence.
Immediately after the new car launch conference, Mammoth Heavy Industry sent invitation letters to major domestic automobile manufacturers and lithium battery companies.
When the desperate companies received this invitation letter, they felt like they had received a huge treasure.
Without any hesitation, the actual person in power flew to Haidong City.
In their eyes, this is a life-saving straw.
Even without this invitation letter, they would try their best to contact Mammoth Heavy Industries.
This is a matter of life and death for the company.
Don't be careless.
At the same time, Mammoth Heavy Industry issued an announcement as soon as possible.
"Tomorrow we will discuss the future direction of new energy with major automobile manufacturers and major lithium battery manufacturers."
This announcement was a real shot in the arm for the stock market.
Although the stock has not been banned, many people have felt more at ease.
Everyone is watching.
What will this round of negotiations be about?
For this meeting, the country sent the Minister of Energy and the Minister of Industry as representatives to attend.
From this point, it is not difficult to see the current position of Mammoth Heavy Industry.
It should be said that it is the technical strength of Mammoth Heavy Industry.
As the company had already cooperated with the military before, this meeting was not as solemn as expected.
And just when the announcement was released.
Zhou Qiang, the real boss behind the scenes, has already left Dongfang on a flight.
The first stop will be arriving in South Africa.
Then transfer.
This time, Zhou Qiang’s target is Dakar, Senegal.
In fact, it is not impossible in places like Guinea or Frisia.
Zhou Qiang has too many choices.
With Zhou Qiang's current financial resources, even if these places are barren, Zhou Qiang can still make these countries shine brightly.
The next day.
The meeting was held at nine o'clock.
The stock market bidding on that day was finally no longer flat.
But it also opened significantly lower.
Some people who are willing to take a gamble have already started to enter the market to buy at the bottom.
More people are becoming more reluctant to part with their money.
The largest municipal conference hall in Haidong City.
As many as one hundred bosses of lithium battery companies arrived.
Then there are the automakers.
There aren't many people, but each one of them matters a lot.
For example, the founder of Ningge Battery appears here.
Ningge Battery, with a market value of trillions of dollars, can be said to be a true super giant.
A 34% share of the global market is scary to think about.
But just yesterday, the price was directly blocked at the lower limit, and today's bidding was still blocked at the lower limit, and the order volume exceeded 120 billion.
This is a terrifying number.
This means that at least several more boards are needed to stabilize it.
After all, Brother Ning's battery has the greatest impact.
The founder of Ningge Battery walked into the conference room with a frown and a heavy face.
It's not just him.
Some big bosses like those from a certain automobile company had even more gloomy expressions.
Their stocks suffered the most, falling by 97%.
The horror of T+0 with no limit on the increase in price is so great that most domestic stock investors have no idea what heaven and hell are.
Soon, everyone arrived.
They were even more punctual than ever before, arriving at least ten minutes early.
This is very rare for their status.
At nine o'clock, Lei Lan appeared in the conference room.
He now represents Mammoth Heavy Industry. Even though he is just a worker, no one at the scene dares to ignore Lei Lan's existence.
Someone who can control this super commercial carrier.
How could it be simple?
What's more, their lifeline is now controlled by Mammoth Heavy Industries.
Lei Lan's face was full of smiles. He sat on the podium and looked around at the people below.
Those who were once very powerful are now gathered together.
It all started with the emergence of the Mammoth car.
Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult to bring them together.
Because they are all very busy, they are not eligible to appear at every meeting.
On both sides of the podium.
The Minister of Energy and the Minister of Industry sat separately.
They all wanted to see something from Lei Lan's face.
"I guess everyone knows me now."
"Not to mention you, all of you are well-known and famous leaders."
"Considering that everyone's time is limited, I will keep this short."
Lei Lan did not ask the two ministers to speak as he did before.
no need.
Zhou Qiang is a straightforward person. He doesn't care what other people think or say, and he acts independently.
After a long time, Lei Lan became the same.
So he got straight to the point.
"I know what everyone is most worried about right now."
"There will certainly be technological changes and impacts, but these are inevitable as a result of technological development."
“It’s like everyone wants to step on gasoline-powered vehicles.”
“New technologies emerge, and you are currently the victims.”
Having said that, Lei Lan looked around at the people below.
Many people did have indignant looks on their faces.
Lei Lan said: "Let me first talk about our battery technology. In fact, our battery technology jumps out of the way you currently know it. It uses new physical phenomena and new materials."
"It is no exaggeration to say that we do not need more than 70% of the lithium battery materials currently on the market."
"I think everyone will understand what this epoch-making battery technology can change."
"Anyone who dares to go against the trend will eventually be crushed into dust."
“This is a historical inevitability.”
"But everyone also knows that Mammoth Heavy Industries has limited energy and production capacity."
"what to do?"
"I asked my boss this question before, and he said something that really impressed me."
“Money cannot be earned by one person alone. Only when everyone makes money together can we achieve transcendence, become truly prosperous, and become truly big and strong.”
"Currently, traditional cars still occupy more than 70% of the market."
"And it is mainly joint ventures and imports."
"So why can't we take advantage of the breakthrough in mammoth battery technology to overthrow these established car brands?"
"Our vision should not be limited to the domestic situation, but also need to look at the world."
"Monopolizing the global automobile market is an unprecedented feat in human industrial history."
"This goal is so big that it would be very difficult for Mammoth Heavy Industry to accomplish it on its own."
“So my boss proposed a cooperation plan.”
Having said that, Lei Lan paused for a moment to let the people below digest it.
Everyone present seemed to realize something.
Something that seems impossible to accomplish.
But for Mammoth Heavy Industry, it is very likely.
One is battery technology, and the other is driverless technology.
Both represent software and hardware.
Someone once said that in the era of new energy vehicles, whoever masters intelligence will win the world.
Mammoth Heavy Industry has gone even further, focusing on both software and hardware.
The conference room was indeed in chaos.
Lei Lan was not in a hurry either.
Ten minutes later, when the scene quieted down, Lei Lan said, "You have the production capacity, and we have the technology."
"When we combine and twist into one, what kind of power will burst out?"
"This market is cruel. Companies that are abandoned by technology are not qualified to survive. The only thing that awaits them is annihilation."
“So what we need is people who know how to do business and are outstanding.”
“The plan is simple, create a new car company and a new battery company.”
"Mammoth Heavy Industry licenses its technology to the new company to manufacture batteries and complete vehicles, and each company invests in the new company based on its actual value to complete its share of the new company."
"Mammoth Heavy Industries will acquire 35% of the shares of the new company, and the remaining 65% will be divided among the various companies."
"Also, I'd like to point out that Mammoth Heavy Industries has the final right of interpretation."
“For example, terminating technology licensing.”
When Lei Lan's design was thrown out, it immediately caused an uproar below.
Are you kidding?
Not only does the new company, Mammoth Heavy Industry, hold the majority of the shares, but it also has a veto power? Can it terminate the technology license if it is not happy?
This is definitely a super overbearing regulation.
Although this plan is the most perfect solution for them.
But they couldn't accept it.
How many people here are from super companies with a market value of hundreds of billions, but have now become a subsidiary of Mammoth Heavy Industry? Or in other words, they are just processors?
How can they accept this?
"Absolutely not."
Someone had already jumped up and shouted first.
Lei Lan was not in a hurry and said calmly: "This is voluntary. If you don't join the new company, you know best what the outcome will be."
"You and your company may even be destroyed by the times."
Lei Lan’s words were extremely sharp.
This is not a threat.
It's a normal business conspiracy.
Whoever disagrees, Mammoth Heavy Industry will not play with them.
See how long you can hold on.
In the face of such cheap and super-high-performance batteries, the batteries they produce are simply unbearable to look at.
What’s even more terrifying is when a new company drives the market.
If they don't have technical skills, they will be marginalized.
And this new company will become the market leader and will control everything.
In contrast, add this company.
What's wrong with growing up with this era?
A hard bone will eventually become a victim of the whale's attack.
Everyone present was extremely smart, and they immediately figured out the interests involved.
Involuntarily, everyone's faces became solemn.
This is a meeting like the Hongmen Banquet.
