Chapter 839 New York? Gotham! Chen Yansen: I'll take my time! The rice in East Africa is ripe!
The top floor of a skyscraper on Fifth Avenue in New York City.
"This matter ends here. In the fourth quarter, Senlian Group will continue to build fab plants and battery manufacturing bases in North America. You have been causing trouble without permission. If this happens again, you will be removed from the position of CEO!"
In an extremely luxurious office, Jeb Bush, the current head of the Bush family, glared at the middle-aged man opposite him and cursed.
“Mr. Jeb, I understand.”
Fields' face turned pale and then flushed.
Fortunately, there were only two people in the room, otherwise he would have lost face.
To outsiders, he is the CEO of Ford Motor Company, in charge of a vast automotive business empire, but in the eyes of the Bush family, he is nothing more than a larger hyena.
Jeb waved his hand, indicating that Fields could leave.
Seeing this, Fields leaned forward slightly, politely taking his leave on the surface, but inwardly he was cursing all the female members of the Bush family.
As for swearing out loud?
He would never dare to do that!
After Fields left, Jeb picked up the phone, dialed the number of the head of the Rusvelt family, and then dialed it.
At the same time.
The pool in a luxury suite at Aman Resorts.
Richards was holding a young Hollywood model from Australia. She was petite and delicate, a rare find in the United States.
He was Fields' right-hand man, serving as Group Vice President in Ford's management assistant department.
In fact, whether it was bribing Ronald, who was terminally addicted to gambling, or revising the on-site investigation report, it was all orchestrated by him.
The vice president who ended up in the inspection station was merely a scapegoat and a price to pay in this business game.
Richards felt no guilt about doing these things; he paid enough money, so people would work for him.
At this moment!
He suddenly felt an itch on his back, as if he had been bitten by some kind of mosquito.
But he didn't take it to heart.
But less than two minutes later, he felt a tightness in his chest and had some difficulty breathing.
Immediately afterwards, tears and snot streamed down his face, as if he had a severe allergic reaction. Just as he was about to say something, he couldn't stop drooling.
Suddenly, everything went dark, like walking into a movie theater with the lights off.
Richards paused, then leaned over the car.
What he didn't know was that his pupils had shrunk to the size of a pinhead.
Immediately afterwards, a violent urge to vomit came from my throat, my abdomen cramped, and I broke out in a cold sweat.
My muscles started to twitch involuntarily all over my body, especially my back.
When the young model saw him stop, she immediately and tactfully wiggled her hips.
To her surprise, the other party still did not react at all.
When she turned around, she caught a glimpse of Chaz's condition out of the corner of her eye, and immediately screamed in terror, scrambling out of the pool.
Without support, Richards collapsed into the water.
Subsequently, he lost control of his bladder and bowels, the pool water turned yellowish-white, and a strong stench filled the air.
"Ho ho—!"
Richards' bronchi spasmed severely, as if someone was choking him, and he could only make hissing sounds.
The whole body muscles convulse violently, like a grand mal seizure, but the person may still be conscious.
The person is still conscious, but he cannot speak or control his limbs.
He was forced to drink mouthfuls of pool water mixed with excrement and urine, and the feeling of suffocation plunged him into extreme fear.
The whole body is convulsing!
About three minutes later, Richards stopped moving and finally sank to the bottom of the pool.
When the model, dressed and accompanied by his assistant and hotel security, returned to the room to check, they found Richards motionless at the bottom of the pool.
Head down, limbs outstretched!
His excrement and bright red blood foam, which he spat out, were still floating on the surface of the water.
They died such a horrible death!
That's so pathetic!
This scene sends chills down your spine!
...
...
When Fields received news of Richards' death, he was first stunned, then suddenly stood up and angrily cursed, "What does Chen Yansen think North America is? His own backyard?"
He had originally intended to accept mediation, but suddenly became furious and wanted to retaliate.
Although the inspector had not yet released the investigation results, he subconsciously believed that it was definitely Chen Yansen's doing.
Upon receiving the news, the New York Central Command was also furious.
Since Chen Yansen's last attack, assassinations have been rampant in New York. If this continues, New York will become like Gotham!
Reporters rushed to the scene and were stopped by inspectors just as they were about to enter the Aman Club.
This is an order from the Central Secretariat!
They did not want the situation to escalate further until the matter was fully investigated.
Ford orchestrated the Orange Car crash scandal, causing the credibility of the North American Automobile Association to plummet.
If left unchecked and reporters link this matter to the Senlian Group, then the previous cooperative projects between Chen Yansen and the Kennedy, Rusvelt, Rockefeller, Adams, Bush and other families will be completely canceled!
Therefore, Richards, who had just been pulled out of the mixture of feces and urine, was officially described as having suffered a sudden illness and then drowning.
Whether outsiders believe it or not, this is the inspector's initial investigation conclusion.
Inside the patrol station, several patrol officers in charge of the case were discussing it.
"VX nerve agent again? Wasn't all of that stuff destroyed in the 1990s?"
"It seems someone is continuously producing and manufacturing them!"
"By the way, Chen Yansen of the Senlian Group was also attacked with VX nerve agent last time."
"Chen Yansen..."
The captain in charge of the case slammed two lab reports side by side on the table. One was the remnants from the attack on Chen Yansen's convoy last year, and the other was a brownish-yellow oil stain scraped off the grout from the pool tiles today.
The two spectra almost completely overlapped, even the positions of the extraneous peaks were exactly the same.
Same synthetic route, same chiral isomer.
With a purity of 99.7% and impurities of 0.3%, it is clear that both instances of VX nerve agent likely originated from North Korea.
This left the inspectors completely baffled!
There were plausible reasons for the assassination of Chen Yansen before, but what about this time?
Ford's Richards didn't provoke North Korea either!
In this way, Senlian Group was temporarily cleared of suspicion, but the central command in North America was in a dilemma, as they could not go to Asia to arrest people.
Therefore, reporting it to higher authorities is the only option.
If the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up; let the big boss worry about it.
On the other side.
When Fields received the internal investigation report from the inspection station, he was momentarily stunned, somewhat incredulous, and muttered under his breath, "Not Senlian Group?"
But he had a gut feeling that it was probably Chen Yansen who did it!
But by this time, he had realized what was happening, and after seeing Richards's gruesome death, he too felt fear.
He is ruthless when he schemes against others, but he immediately backs down when others retaliate.
For the poor, life is like a prison, but he was a billionaire with hundreds of millions in assets. He had the best of everything in terms of food, clothing and daily necessities, so he naturally cherished his life and never wanted to die!
When he discovered that someone was even more unruly than him, it was only natural for him to back down.
After thinking for a moment, he called Jeb and humbly begged him to mediate. He offered to apologize and provide compensation in hopes of restoring the cooperative relationship with DeepBlue Technology.
On the surface, he was also talking about cooperation.
In reality, he wanted Chen Yansen to let him go; if the other party agreed to supply the goods, the matter would be over.
On the contrary, he had better pray that Richards really offended North Korea unintentionally and was killed, rather than being secretly arranged by Chen Yansen.
...
...
"Negotiation? He can fight whenever he wants, and negotiate whenever he wants? Please tell him that Orange Motors has no interest in licensing Ford's patents or offering compensation. I believe in the law and will leave it to the courts."
Chen Yansen showed no respect for Jeb and spoke slowly and deliberately.
Faced with Jeb's probing, he also acted as if he knew nothing and was unaware.
There are some things you can do, but you can't say them, much less admit them.
Even if the underlying logic of this world does indeed believe in the "survival of the fittest" mentality, who doesn't wear a suit and tie in their daily life?
Since they are civilized people, how could they possibly engage in assassination!
“Mr. Chen, I’m sorry. I’ll have Fields apologize to you in person next time you come to New York.”
Jeb sat in his office, shifted his position, and looked out at the street scene.
His idea was to win over Chen Yansen, so he didn't want to strain the relationship too much.
"No problem!"
Chen Yansen readily agreed, showing great generosity.
Upon hearing this, Jeb quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
Next, the two talked about their collaboration.
In Jeb's eyes, Chen Yansen is a very unique Chinese businessman, different from those Chinese who are reincarnations of the mythical creature Pixiu. He is very willing to share equity.
Take KuaiGo, Pinbei North America, and KuaiRun branch as examples. Chen Yansen has always been very easy to talk to when it comes to transferring equity and hiring local employees.
Unlike previous Chinese businessmen who wanted to hold all the shares in their own hands, this is the basis for the cooperation between the two parties.
In reality, Chen Yansen only considers two things when starting a company: first, controlling stake; and second, human resource costs.
Without compromising access to humanitarian aid, he even sold nearly 40% of KuaiGo's shares to Wall Street.
Of course, it also brought huge positive benefits.
In the eyes of central government officials and ordinary people in North America, although Chen Yansen is the biggest beneficiary of industries like KuaiGo, they also receive convenient services, stable income, and substantial tax revenue.
A dozen minutes later, Chen Yansen hung up the phone with a smile.
He wouldn't make any moves against Fields for the time being. He wanted to keep him in fear for a year or two before finally sending him to meet his maker.
That's just his temper!
After all, people in the industry have given him the nickname "vengeful," so they can't let that nickname go to waste, can they?
at the same time.
Fields, far across the ocean, after some deliberation, decisively traveled from New York to Dearborn, where Ford's headquarters were located.
Not long after, he received a call from Jeb. After learning that Chen Yansen was unwilling to resume supply and only wanted to resolve the matter through legal means, he fell into a state of anxiety again.
To him, whether Chen Yansen takes up arms or the law, it is a form of indirect threat.
The biggest fear when doing bad things is being discovered, because you will have to bear the consequences of the law and retaliation.
The next morning, he was summoned to the company to attend a board meeting.
The shareholders gave him two options: either resign and leave gracefully, or persuade Chen Yansen to resume the supply of DeepBlue batteries.
Although Ford has very few pure electric and plug-in hybrid models, the engine starter motor, cooling system and emergency lighting equipment still require high-performance batteries to ensure power supply.
Conventional lithium batteries and DeepBlue Technology's battery life are completely different products.
A car that costs tens of thousands of dollars may be abandoned by users due to some minor differences.
Deep Blue Battery is optional, but indispensable.
Especially given that other competing products have already adopted it, its impact on product sales is becoming increasingly crucial.
...
...
Two days later, the last day of August arrived.
Senlian University and two Orange Vocational and Technical Colleges have opened for the first time. The first reaction of the tens of thousands of new students after entering the school is: Who said this is a diploma mill?
After two months of renovations during the summer, the teaching buildings, libraries, laboratories, canteens, and dormitories of these three colleges have all been completely renovated. Air conditioning has been installed everywhere, and public appliances such as washing machines, hair dryers, and microwave ovens have been provided.
Orange Vocational College gives each new student a brand-new Orange Pad for daily study. After graduation, students need to return the Pad to the school, or they can pay the remaining value to buy the Pad.
Senlian University directly provides each student with an Orange Magicbook laptop and an Orange Pad, while high-scoring students selected for the Qingyun Campus Program each receive an Orange AirSlim X1, a Yaocheng X3 Ultra, and an Orange Pad.
It's worth noting that this benefit wasn't previously announced on the school's official website.
This unexpected benefit instantly excited the freshmen who had entered the university with trepidation.
Especially the selected participants of the Qingyun Program, holding their lightweight Orange AirSlim X1 laptops, carefully stroked the textured body of the Yao Cheng X3 Ultra, their surprise and delight were impossible to hide.
Many students immediately unpacked the devices, connected to the campus WiFi, and were greeted by the slogan "Soaring to the Clouds, Following the Light" that popped up on the boot screen, along with the exclusive school emblem wallpaper of Senlian University, which gave them a strong sense of belonging.
“I had heard from my neighbors that private schools were just money-grabbing schemes with terrible facilities, but now it seems that was just a rumor!”
A freshman from a third-tier city touched the brand-new solid wood desk in his dormitory and turned to his roommate.
"Do you think Senlian University is just an ordinary private third-tier university? I heard that next year the Education Association is very likely to upgrade a batch of third-tier universities in Huian to second-tier universities, understand? As long as the school works hard enough, who knows, by the time we graduate, Senlian University might become a first-tier university."
My roommate said with a grin.
The lively scene on campus quickly spread across the internet through the freshmen's WeChat Moments and short video accounts.
Netizens who were initially skeptical of Senlian University were immediately filled with envy after seeing the actual photos of the teaching buildings, dormitory environment, and free electronic devices.
Chen Yansen attended the welcome party for new students at Senlian University, and then set off for Yanjing.
September has arrived, and the day of the military parade is drawing ever closer!
Among those invited, the top tier naturally included the heads of central government departments from various countries, and Leggi was also on the list.
As a representative of entrepreneurs, Chen Yansen was not only among the first batch of invitees, but also the first to receive an invitation letter.
For the business community, the ability to participate in this grand military parade has become a significant symbol of their standing in the business world.
This is precisely why Liu Qiangdong asked Chen Yansen for help in obtaining an invitation letter.
On the afternoon of the 2nd, as soon as Chen Yansen landed, Wang Guan from Orange Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Technology called: "Boss, the Abyssinian super rice 2000 has entered the harvest season!"
