After settling everything, Lu Feng called Su Yourong again in the afternoon, asking her to keep an eye on the lithography machine. During the call, Su Yourong mentioned Mr. Feng's hospitalization and subtly inquired about Lu Feng's current situation.
Lu Feng made it very clear on the phone that he was perfectly fine in mainland China and that Jia Feng was also stable. He told her to explain the situation to the shareholders of United Capital and not to worry too much.
At the same time, Lu Feng also told her that if they purchased lithography machines overseas and were to launch Hurricane Capital to connect with them, Su Yourong would be needed to help with everything from cargo ships to port negotiations.
The person on the other end of the phone readily agreed, and after chatting about their recent situation, they hung up.
In the United States, this morning, meetings have been quite frequent these past few days, with senior executives of Wall Street financial groups constantly holding meetings. These meetings include not only financial tycoons but also Silicon Valley tech, manufacturing, and other high-level figures.
The atmosphere in the meeting room was rather somber. Lambert sat in a chair, resting his chin on his hand, while a white man in his sixties spoke eloquently across from him.
"This matter must be taken seriously. The whole world is watching it. If Lu Feng and Jiafeng Group are unharmed, our global influence will decline. This is not just a business matter, nor is it just a matter between companies. We need to show our stance and, more importantly, our capabilities!" the man said resolutely.
“I agree with what he said. If this matter fails, Europe’s influence will increase. Many companies will know that Schroder Group invested in Jiafeng. If Jiafeng Group is safe and sound, more companies around the world will go to Europe to raise funds. From a macro perspective, that moment will be our end. It’s just a matter of time.”
The curtain falls?
Whoever dares to bring it to an end, it will send them to their coffin!
The US financial system is indeed highly developed, and its various financing platforms are very powerful, but is European capital not as good?
No! It's capable, but it doesn't dare to be truly capable!
The rule of this world is that if you want to ensure you are the smartest person in the world, it's simple: when someone smarter than you appears, just eliminate them!
Jiafeng has set a very bad precedent, easily giving some companies around the world that do not want to seek financing or go public in the United States another equivalent option!
Watanabe Shi arrived in New York a few days ago. He had been targeting Jiafeng since the year before last. Although he made a mistake in the Thai market, he contributed a lot of ideas this time and was the core driving force behind this matter. Finally, he returned to New York and was transferred to Motorola headquarters to serve as the president of the group's overseas business.
When Watanabe received the news of his promotion, he was so excited that he wiped away tears. After so many years, he was back. Although this time it wasn't at Goldman Sachs, he was one step closer to Wall Street.
In Eisen's office on Wall Street, Watanabe, dressed in a suit, shook hands with Eisen with a restrained smile.
“It’s a relief to finally meet you. It’s just a pity that Mr. Lambert is in a meeting and cannot meet with you. I congratulate you on his behalf,” Eisen said, shaking Watanabe’s hand.
"You're too kind. This is all I should do. I just walked all over Wall Street, and it's still the same as before. It's quite moving," Watanabe said as he sat down.
"Yes, this place will never change; it will always be the financial heart of the world. What are your plans after assuming your new position?" Eisen inquired.
"I've been having meetings at Motorola for the past few days. Yesterday, it was confirmed that I would be handling the Jiafeng Group matter. Goldman Sachs is a shareholder of Motorola, and we are also very close friends. Today, I'd like to share my thoughts. There are actually several ways to do this, such as filing a lawsuit in China. Whether we win the case or not is not important; what's important is setting an example for other companies."
"At the same time, it can put pressure on other overseas partners of Jiafeng Group, such as Nokia, to cut off its overseas markets, overseas supply chains, and overseas technology..."
Watanabe spoke at length about his thoughts, saying that Jiafeng had made a technological breakthrough, but it was still far from being able to make chips. As long as Jiafeng was sanctioned, its demise was only a matter of time.
Domestically, Lu Feng completely ignored He Zheng. Apart from learning about the market situation from Zhu Lidong, his main focus was on using his connections to find lithography machines globally.
As Watanabe Shi began his new role, he started calling global technology companies, hoping they would condemn the Jiafeng Group. Meanwhile, domestic companies such as Motorola, Sony, Panasonic, and Toshiba issued statements indicating they would soon file lawsuits against the Jiafeng Group in China.
Amid the competition among private capital, there was also a contest at the national level. International public opinion launched a fierce attack on domestic patent protection issues. Coupled with some pro-American "experts," media, and lackeys, public opinion surged, and various stories were compiled and fabricated by the media.
The idea that in foreign countries, if someone infringes on a patent, they will never be able to hold their head high again, with no legal oversight and only moral self-condemnation requiring them to bow and apologize, is misleading.
With the addition of accessories like sewer oil paper wrappers, the promise of never cutting in line, restaurant plates washed seven times, and the legendary summer camp, a series of other stories began to be promoted.
Ten years later, these stories circulated on the internet, becoming the most serious topics of childhood, prompting self-criticism and reflection, but turning into jokes as adults.
Three days passed in a flash. Compared to the last reception, Jiafeng made thorough preparations this time, with detailed and thoughtful arrangements made for the hotel, vehicles, and restaurants.
Around 8 a.m., He Zheng arrived at the municipal government office. Mayor Zhou, still slightly sleepy, sat down, made a cup of tea, and said, "He won't arrive until the afternoon. He can take a nap later. This time, I'll trouble Team Leader He to put in a good word for us. Some things can be done slowly, there's no need to rush. Lu Feng has a bad temper, so we'll just avoid him."
