Chapter 372: Offending Lao Xu
On the afternoon of the 17th, the conference came to an end.
The first New Energy Conference was a little sloppy, mainly for two reasons. First, everyone knows that there are not many countries participating in the conference.
Secondly, regarding the development of restricted industries, if the market can increase rapidly in the coming year, the next one will definitely be better.
After the meeting, Li Bing found Lu Liang. When Li Xiang saw this, he raised his eyebrows and followed closely, as if he was afraid of missing something.
"You haven't responded yet? I still have something to do here. I'll go to Tokyo to deal with it. I'll probably be able to leave the day after tomorrow."
The delivery date is only a few days away. Lu Liang was on the phone with Lu Ya to understand the situation. Suddenly, behind him Two people appeared.
"Let's do this for now." He was startled and hurriedly hung up the phone, with an unkind look in his eyes: "What do you want to do?"
"How about Mr. Li, you first?" Li Bing and Li Xiang looked at each other, smiled, and suddenly became humble.
Lu Liang frowned and asked angrily: "What's the matter with Li Bing? You tell me first."
He had to catch a flight to Tokyo later, and Xu Jiawei booked a flight for about six o'clock.
The flight from chicken feet to chicken feed took about five hours, and it was estimated that he would land around early in the morning.
"Mr. Lu, upon the decision of the board of directors, Weilai will formally prepare a listing plan." Li Bing said quickly.
If it is launched in China, NIO will only have one car with a sales volume of more than 3,000. It will never be considered in this life.
But the U.S. stock market is different. Lao Jia’s PPT company can prepare to go public, not to mention that they have already built a factory and officially launched it.
Weilai is now valued at approximately US$4.5 billion, and they plan to use 20% of their equity for IPO financing.
"Go and make preparations. If you need help, let me know."
Lu Liang counted the days and felt that it was almost done.
The seeds planted two years ago will bear fruit one after another in the next one to two years.
He looked at Li Xiang: "Ideal also wants to go public?"
Li Xiang hurriedly shook his head and said with a smile: "Mr. Lu, Ideal plans to conduct Series D financing at the end of the month."
Ideal and Weilai have different development routes. The market response of ONE is very good, and he plans to increase the valuation If it is higher and it is ready to go public, it will have to reach at least tens of billions of dollars.
But now, the company is out of money again. Although sales have exceeded 10,000, more than 7,000 vehicles have not yet been delivered.
We have invested tens of billions of dollars in production base with Lifan Group and are about to start the second phase of construction.
Everything costs money.
Lu Liang couldn't help rubbing his eyebrows and pondered for a moment: "Then let's raise funds. If you are short of money, let me know, but I don't have time at the end of the month, so I probably won't go there in person."
He suddenly admired Shen Peng and Zhu Hu. Stalls as big as Sequoia and Jinshajiang have more than a hundred companies investing in them every year.
You need to pick one or two companies out of hundreds, and then follow them until they go public.
In the end, the income was dozens or hundreds of times, which is really not enviable at all.
After all, Lu Liang now mainly invests in four companies. In addition to Douyin being adopted by Byte, it can save him a little bit of worry.
Panda Weilai has three ideal families, and he won't let him have any worries, especially the panda, who is like a father and a mother at the same time.
While a few people were talking, Lao Xu came over to chat. Hearing that Lu Liang was going to Tokyo later, he warmly invited: "Mr. Lu, this is unfortunate. I was planning to go to Toyota to have a look. How about we go there together at noon tomorrow?”
We agreed last time in Yangcheng that if we had the chance, we would let Lu Liang fly on his private plane and see the moving palace.
It should be noted that whenever he travels far away, several leading dancers from the Hengtai Song and Dance Troupe will go with him, adding a bit of artistic flavor to the boring journey.
Lu Liang was stunned. He could even imagine the scene of the machine shaking. If he was not in a hurry, he would indeed be quite interested.
Last year on the 42nd floor, I witnessed the Dunhuang squat dance. I still remember it deeply. Every time I squat, my heart trembles.
It’s just that he can’t stay in Tokyo for a few days and will fly to Edinburgh after finishing his work, so he can only refuse Lao Xu’s kindness.
Lu Liang apologized: "Mr. Xu, I'm really sorry. I have other things to deal with, and I'm a little pressed for time. I've booked a flight for tonight, so I'm afraid I won't be able to go with you."
"Okay, let's talk about it next time when we have a chance."
Old Xu frowned, his face already a little worried. You know, he is the richest man this year, and he has surpassed the richest man in Dongda University and directly became the richest Chinese in the world.
A certain famous calligrapher also wrote him a calligraphy sticker containing the acrostic poem "Xu Emperor is outstanding and great".
As a result, Lu Liang rejected repeated invitations, which made him very unhappy.
Although Lu Liang also helped him earn a small billion, this was no reason for Lu Liang to neglect him.
"Both Mr. Li and Mr. Xu, see you next time."
Lu Liang didn't bother to think about the little things in Lao Xu's heart, so he got into the car without looking back.
Whether it is finance or car building, he is an outsider, but real estate is his destiny.
Especially now that we know a lot more,
Inflating the property market is just to resist dollar quantification.
A loan withdrawal caused Wanda to lose her arm in order to survive, and also caused Lao Wang to fall from the altar. If Lao Xu is so arrogant, something will happen sooner or later.
The real estate group is awesome and is related to the livelihood of hundreds of millions of people, but it is the industry that is awesome, not the individual or the group.
Wanda fell, Hengtai stood up, Hengtai fell, maybe Country Garden, Sunac, or China Resources will stand up.
A group that can be replaced at any time, the richest man that can be replaced, Lu Liang is not afraid at all, and he will be offended if he offends him.
At 6:20, the plane departed from Boao Airport, passed through Shanghai to rest for half an hour, and arrived in Tokyo in the early morning.
Wen Chao received the news early and had been waiting for Lu Liang's arrival at the airport pick-up gate since 11 p.m.
"How is the situation in Detroit? Is our cooperation with GM still going well?"
Lu Liang asked as he walked. When Ohta ordered this old fox to detain his assets in Tokyo, he also called it asset protection.
He simply followed the trend and invested all the money he earned in Tokyo in the United States, leaving the father to ask his son for money.
Facts have proved that the effect is remarkable, and 200 million US dollars of funds flowed extremely smoothly from Tokyo to the joint venture factory in Detroit.
Because in the name of Xingheng Investment Club, Wen Chao has always been solely responsible for this matter, and Lu Liang usually does not interfere.
Wen Chao replied: "President Lu, the project is progressing very smoothly. President Special and General Motors have been taking care of us. The 48 engineers arranged by Vice President Wang also arrived in Detroit successfully half a month ago to join GM's R&D project. . ”
During this period, he went to Detroit twice.
The first time was to bring funds to sign a factory construction contract, and the second time was to bring 48 engineers sent by Wang Xiaofeng to discuss joint research and development of a new car chassis with General Motors.
Mr. Te was different from other leaders. When Wen Chao went there for the first time, he received warm hospitality. Mr. Te even took him around GM, as if he was helping him stand up.
So much so that he was a little flattered.
Lu Liang was dumbfounded and said with a smile: "Don't regard him as a national leader or a calculating businessman. You will find that all his actions are traceable. Although he does not meet our definition of maturity and stability, he can maximize his own interests. ”
He suffered from the filter from the beginning, thinking that national leaders should be mature and steady, step by step, and be strict in speech.
It turned out that Lao Te was an accident. He ran the country as a company. As long as it was profitable, personal face was not important.
He knows very well that face is earned, not given by others. Even if he is a renegade and crazy clown, it cannot change that he is the leader of the most powerful country on the planet.
Wen Chao thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was indeed the case.
During the conversation, the two came to the underground parking lot of the airport. Wen Chao and his assistant drove three cars.
Two Mercedes Benz, one business car, one for Lu Liang, one for security personnel, and one for himself.
Lu Liang entered the back seat of the Mercedes-Benz, opened the window and said: "Wen Chao, it's getting late. You should go back and rest early. Make an appointment with Ota for me tomorrow afternoon and tell him that I have come. ”
After that. , he then told the accompanying driver: "Go to the Kanzaki Apartment in Roppongi."
The last time we said goodbye, Lu Liang said that he would come over in about a month or two, and it was not a broken promise. I didn't know that Eri Yi and Miyuki, mother and daughter, how are they doing recently?
