Chapter 552: Big Brother is not judged by age. When it is time to call me brother, you must not hesitate!
After a short break after the breakfast meeting, Chen Yansen rushed to the conference center to attend the opening ceremony of the Winter Davos Forum as the "host" and delivered a brief speech.
"how?"
Li Qingsong, who was sitting in the audience, asked with a smile.
"I've met many outstanding young people, but they pale in comparison to Chen Yansen."
Sun Huajun replied in a low voice.
Although China is a big country, it is hard to say that there are many geniuses like Chen Yansen.
In addition to his business talent, as far as he knows, Chen Yansen is also proficient in many languages including English, French, Russian, German, Japanese, Korean, and even speaks Italian and Romansh fluently.
Even if he were to be admitted to the Foreign Affairs Association, he would still be considered a rare talent.
"Even if nothing else, the Deep Blue battery alone is enough to keep us in good stead. Individual equipment in the Northwest, Northeast, and North China regions are all being replaced with brand-new battery modules."
Li Qingsong said in a low voice.
In addition, Deep Blue Battery's influence in the civilian industry cannot be underestimated.
The Middle East, the Lighthouse Country and Temasek have placed a total of US$12 billion in energy storage battery orders;
Tesla, BMW, BAIC, SAIC, JAC, BYD and other companies have signed a total of 4 billion US dollars in power battery orders;
Mobile phone manufacturers such as Apple, Samsung, Huawei, and Sony also rushed to submit purchase orders worth US$2 billion.
If it weren't for insufficient production capacity, DeepBlue Technology's annual revenue would easily exceed US$30 billion.
In fact, even so, DeepBlue Technology has become a well-deserved leader in the battery industry, occupying 70% of the global market share.
Sun Huajun nodded slightly and said nothing more.
In the next few days, Chen Yansen was busy with meetings during the day and held business parties at a club near the hotel at night.
Gao Weilin paid a high price to book the entire clubhouse and rented it for four days in one go.
Entrepreneurs from all over the world come to join in the fun every night.
Although most people don’t know Chen Yansen at all, there are so many people who want to get to know him.
Apart from the technology and Internet circles, the people who are most enthusiastic about him are those in the financial investment circle.
The CEOs of Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, Blackstone, UBS and Citigroup were eager to take over the listing agency business of Sunlink Capital's subsidiaries on the spot.
But Chen Yansen never gave in, and they could do nothing about it.
In contrast, people in the energy industry are the most hostile to him.
After all, the emergence of Deep Blue Battery is very likely to rewrite the development pattern of the new energy vehicle industry and have an impact on their interests.
Especially from the performance of Tesla Model S LR on the market, it is not difficult to see that the deep blue battery has high energy density and high safety.
The only drawback is the high cost and high selling price, which has reduced the desire of ExxonMobil and Shell to suppress it.
Chen Yansen's hosting of these parties was not without results. At least he had already reached an agreement with Coca-Cola, Unilever, Walmart and Nestlé on the entry of Pinbei and Kuaipao.
In addition, Ford, General Motors, Volvo and Mercedes-Benz took advantage of the meeting to finalize procurement contracts with Chen Yansen, totaling US$2 billion.
For traditional car manufacturers, launching pure electric vehicles does not mean that they have to give up fuel vehicles. The world is never black and white.
In their view, since there is a market for electric vehicles in North America and China, why not make money?
As for the high price of Deep Blue batteries, they actually don't care.
Anyway, the wool comes from the sheep, and as long as the product can be sold, this part of the cost can naturally be passed on to the customers.
What surprised Chen Yansen the most was that Ratan Tata, chairman of the Indian Tata Group, also placed a purchase order of 500 million US dollars with him.
However, Chen Yansen didn't take it to heart.
As soon as the money is received, he will ship the goods; before he sees the payment, he will treat the other party as talking nonsense.
contract?
The binding force of that thing is worth a fortune in the eyes of a trustworthy person, but otherwise it is not even as good as a piece of straw paper.
January 25th, 3 p.m.
Chen Yansen held meetings for four consecutive days. After attending the closing ceremony, he took Song Yuncheng straight to the ski resort and started vacation mode.
"Ali's boss Ma is ill." Song Yuncheng, dressed neatly and holding skis, followed Chen Yansen and said suddenly.
"Oh? Lao Ma's physical fitness is not as good as Ren Zhongfei's. I guess it's because he works too much overtime and lacks exercise."
Chen Yansen couldn't help laughing out loud.
Considering the pace of the Davos Forum, not to mention Jack Ma, even ordinary young people can’t handle it.
Many people only attend important main forum exchanges and selectively attend sub-forums.
Ma Liyun wanted to obtain more cutting-edge business information in the world, and secondly, he wanted to pave the way for Ali's listing and attract more potential investors. Therefore, he attended all meetings, big and small, and in the evening he had to move to parties hosted by entrepreneurs in North America, Europe, South Asia and other places. It was normal for him to be tired.
"Master, you also need to exercise. Don't rely on your youth." Song Yuncheng reminded with a smile.
"I don't need it. You can't stand not exercising, what are you going to do if you exercise more?"
Chen Yansen said seriously.
"Oh." Song Yuncheng sighed, looking like he was helpless against Chen Yansen.
She then put on her goggles and slid down the slope.
The movements are skillful, standard, natural and smooth.
After all, Chen Yansen would take her to Northern Europe every year and teach her hand-in-hand, so there was no reason why she couldn't learn.
Chen Yansen followed behind Song Yuncheng as if he was strolling in the garden, and at the same time separated a part of his mental power to protect her closely.
Several security personnel were guarding key locations at the entrance to the ski resort and on both sides of the slopes. They wore fluorescent warning vests over their black jackets, which made them particularly eye-catching against the white snow.
Whispered messages kept coming from their earphones, and their eyes swept over every figure on the ski slope like hawks, even sparing the tourists playing and fighting near the cable car in the distance.
Although the security in the town of Davos is tight, who can guarantee that no accidents will happen?
The staff of Fengxuan took the boss's money and did not dare to take any chances.
…
…
The next morning, Chen Yansen started his return journey.
After boarding the plane, Gao Weilin suddenly said, "Boss, I finally understand why the world's top entrepreneurs travel thousands of miles, even if it means taking a flight of more than ten hours, to come here."
Chen Yansen smiled lightly, understanding what Lao Gao meant. He didn't say anything, but turned his gaze to Song Yuncheng.
"Boss, Mr. Gao, is it information valuable?"
Song Yuncheng immediately understood, and after thinking about it, he gave his own opinion.
At work or in formal occasions, Song Yuncheng mostly addressed Chen Yansen as "Boss" and rarely even called him "Brother Sen".
But in private, she always liked to call him "Master".
Of course, in certain specific situations, names like "Dad", "Uncle", and "Brother" will also come out of her mouth.
Gao Weilin grinned and nodded, but didn't respond.
nonsense!
The "Boss Lady" was speaking to the boss, why was she butting in?
“There is progress.”
Chen Yansen praised.
"Isn't this a very simple truth? You praise me so much, do you think I was too stupid before?" Song Yuncheng asked with a wry smile.
“Not everyone can see through this truth.
Look, Lao Gao spent several days pondering before coming up with a clear concept in his mind, while you only took a dozen seconds."
Chen Yansen half-jokingly "pulled down" it.
Sometimes, the truth is so obvious and easy to understand, like a layer of window paper that can be broken with a poke, but most people take a lifetime to figure it out.
Because what can wake a person up is never reason, but the wall.
Most ordinary people can only understand the true operating rules and background of society when they reach a certain age.
"Yes, Mr. Song." Gao Weilin agreed.
Chen Yansen glanced at him and cursed inwardly: Flatterer!
"The Davos Forum is more than just an economic exchange. Senior officials from central government departments from various countries attend and deliver speeches, and their speeches often contain insights into economic initiatives for the coming years. If you can understand and grasp this information, you can capitalize on the so-called trend."
Otherwise, do you really think that anyone can predict the future and plan ahead?
It's nothing more than having more information. Just like the European and American stock markets, those at the top are the ones who control the chessboard. They make the rules and can act at will."
Chen Yansen concluded with a smile.
After hearing this, Gao Weilin's smile gradually faded, and his originally high spirits also dimmed.
Song Yuncheng seemed to be thinking about something.
Seeing this, Chen Yansen picked up an Orange Pad 2, opened an electronic scanned copy of "Statistical Mechanics and Superconductivity", and flipped through it casually.
Fifteen hours later, the plane landed at Yanjing International Airport.
The sky outside the window is full of clouds. Unlike the summer evenings, the sky in Yanjing in winter is gray and cold.
Chen Yansen got off the plane and got into a Maybach 62S. He looked at Song Yuncheng and said, "Liu Qiangdong asked me to meet him at the Dongfang headquarters. Do you want to go back to the hotel and rest first?"
"I'll go with you." Song Yuncheng shook his head.
She understood what Chen Yansen meant, but she was in good spirits and did not feel tired.
After all, private jets are different from ordinary Airbuses. You can lie on the sofa and rest the whole time and you won’t feel tired at all.
"Then let's go to the Yidong headquarters first."
Chen Yansen responded.
Boss, you haven't asked me yet?
Gao Weilin thought gloomily.
But he didn't dare ask.
The car sped along the airport highway, and when the sky darkened a little, it finally arrived at the Beichen Century Center where the headquarters of Yidong was located.
In the second half of next year, Yidong will move to Yizhuang Science and Technology Park.
Similar to last time, Liu Qiangdong led several executives and immediately came over after seeing Chen Yansen get out of the car.
"Brother Sen!" Liu Qiangdong called out calmly with a smile on his face.
His address startled Shen Haoyu, Wang Yaqing, Xu Lei and others.
Song Yuncheng and Gao Weilin were also confused and didn't know what was going on.
Before, Liu Qiangdong did call Chen Yansen "Brother Sen", but that was just a joke.
But now, with executives from both sides standing by, Liu Qiangdong was able to calmly act like a younger brother, which shocked everyone present.
Chen Yansen understood what the other party meant immediately.
The last time he returned to China from New York, he had a private conversation with Liu Qiangdong to discuss further deepening the cooperative relationship based on a shared logistics and warehousing system.
The specific plan is to split Yidong Logistics in the form of equity swap, and then merge it into Yunsu Express, opening up the parcel collection business to the outside world as a sub-brand, which will be managed by Liao Wei.
Liu Qiangdong can take this opportunity to get rid of the burden of heavy assets, achieve higher delivery efficiency, and realize profitability as soon as possible.
Chen Yansen can also get more than 40,000 Yidong riders and all express delivery business of Yidong’s self-operated and POP stores.
"Let's go to your office and talk slowly."
Chen Yansen said in a gentle tone.
He sees clearly that Pinbei, Yaomao and Yidong correspond to different consumer groups in essence.
No matter how strong Pinbei is, it is unable to attract all the users of Yaomao or Yidong to its own platform.
Since we can't kill it, we might as well just annex it.
Anyway, Pinbei has just gone public and has plenty of funds.
For Liu Qiangdong, Dongfang has an AB share structure, and the equity is extremely dispersed, so he is not worried at all that he will lose control.
With the support of Senlian Capital, Dongfang will also be able to achieve faster development.
For Chen Yansen, the dispersed shareholding ratio of Yidong actually gives him more room for maneuver.
"Brother Sen, please!" Liu Qiangdong responded.
He proved a truth with his actions: Big Brother is not defined by age, and when it is time to call someone Brother, you must never hesitate.
What's more, it's not shameful to be Chen Yansen's younger brother.
Apart from the age difference, Chen Yansen is far ahead of him in terms of wealth, social status and industry influence.
He founded JD.com and worked hard for more than ten years. When preparing for the listing plan last year, securities firms in Hong Kong and North America were only willing to give JD.com a valuation of US$8 billion. Isn't this bullying?
In contrast, all the subsidiaries under Senlian Capital are strong and powerful. If you pick any one of them and wait for two or three years for it to go public, its market value will probably be no less than that of Dongfang.
During this period, Liu Qiangdong also figured it out. If he wants to go further, he must rely on his elder brother!
However, his previous target was Ma Wenteng, but now it has become Chen Yansen.
If he had accepted Penguin's investment, he would have had to bite the bullet and swallow the three pots of "garbage" brought to him by the other party - QQ Group Buying, Paipai.com and Yixun.com.
Ma Huateng made it very clear that Penguin only provides traffic and equity.
But since Penguin and Pinbei signed a five-year first-level traffic portal cooperation agreement, Ma Wenteng has forgotten about Yidong and has invested in Yixun.com many times to compete with Yidong in the digital home appliance category.
It’s not that Handsome Dong doesn’t want to acknowledge Ma Wenteng as his big brother, it’s just that Ma Wenteng’s conditions are too harsh. He doesn’t want to pay a penny and still wants to stuff garbage into his mouth.
Who can stand this?
"Old Liu, let's go to your office and sit down. The can of Anji white tea I had last time tasted good."
Chen Yansen responded.
The two walked and talked in a harmonious atmosphere as they entered the first floor lobby, and then took the elevator to a spacious and bright office.
An ink-and-wash landscape painting hangs in front of the office, with a mahogany desk in the middle and a golden unicorn ornament on each side.
Gather energy and make money!
