I have a debt of 3 trillion, and my creditors are begging me not to die.

Chapter 330 The military makes large-scale purchases of color-changing clothing

The Bald Eagle authorities were overjoyed to see Xingchen Motors' battery swapping stations and experience stores being built on a large scale.

They immediately contacted capitalists in the oil and fuel vehicle industries to negotiate, promising to stop the Star Auto project if these capitalists were willing to vote for them.

Oil tycoons and gasoline car owners aren't stupid; they understand that the Democrats are very likely to lose the election, and they're unlikely to betray Trump at this time.

The plan failed, and the authorities had no choice but to abandon it.

Xingchen Motors was originally a backup plan for them, just in case, so they didn't pay much attention to the rejection from the oil and fuel vehicle tycoons.

European stock markets reopened, and both Sihai Investment and Wall Street made large-scale purchases. Sihai Investment aimed to buy at the bottom, while Wall Street aimed to close out short positions.

Seeing the widespread surge in European stock markets, Europeans are all smiles.

Tusk looked at the betting odds and sighed, "It all comes down to Mr. Yang's intervention; his actions are always effective. He shouldn't have had to get his loans back, otherwise this crisis wouldn't have happened."

Haha ...

This is the type of person who gets sold out but still helps count the money.

With massive purchases from Sihai Investment and Wall Street, European stock markets recovered 40% of their losses from the previous two days in just half a trading day. This was because Sihai Investment deliberately released information that Yang Chen had intervened to save the European market, so retail investors and institutions alike went long and pushed up European stock markets.

At this moment, Yang Chen called Tusk.

“Mr. Tusk, you have a mole on your side. Wall Street and I bought in at the same time. I drove up the stock price, and they bought to cover their short positions. Although I managed to buy back some of their shorted shares, I still managed to get them out in time. Are you guys in Europe any good? You can never get rid of the pro-hawks inside, can you?” Yang Chen said.

This preemptive strike left Tusk speechless.

After a long pause, Tusk said awkwardly, "Alas... this problem is too complicated, we simply cannot solve it. Only when the bald eagle has completely fallen from its pedestal can we possibly cleanse the pro-hawk faction within our ranks. Although they escaped, Mr. Yang still helped us reduce our losses by hundreds of billions of euros, and we are still very grateful for his help. The 1000 billion euro debt we presented to Mr. Yang will take effect immediately; Mr. Yang only needs to calculate the debt based on 500 billion euros and 1000 billion Eagle Dollars."

Yang Chen sighed and said, "Sometimes I really feel disappointed in you guys. Your lack of ambition has damaged my reputation as well. People outside think I failed to profit from Wall Street."

Tusk said awkwardly, "I'm very sorry, Mr. Yang. Sometimes I'm helpless too; it's not a problem that one person can solve alone."

Yang Chen sighed again, hung up the phone immediately, and then couldn't help but laugh.

"Are you treating Europeans like they're from Japan?" Chen Xi joked.

Yang Chen laughed heartily and said, "Europeans have never been good people. Historically, they and Japan have bullied us the most. It's only right to treat them like Japan and punish them. They deserve the punishment. The Empress Dowager has a lot of money deposited with them. I'm just collecting some interest now; I haven't even gotten my principal back yet."

Chen Xi said with a smile, "If we follow your logic, all those profits from compounding interest would amount to a fortune. It would be perfectly reasonable for us to reap as much wealth as we want from them."

“Absolutely. We don’t need to be soft on foreigners. After all, we’re weak, and when they were strong, they never showed us any mercy. When I become even stronger, I’ll take out modern history and name them one by one. Whoever doesn’t kneel down and kowtow to admit their mistakes, I’ll deal with them,” Yang Chen said.

Chen Xi immediately sat on Yang Chen's lap and kissed him, praising, "Honey, you're amazing. You're the best man in the world, bar none."

While kneading Chen Xi, Yang Chen asked, "Where is it good?"

Chen Xi smiled shyly and said, "Everything about you is great. But then again, I'm 27 years old. If you want a second or third child, you'd better hurry up. You should start planning for your first child now."

The government is urging me to have children, and my girlfriend is urging me to have children too. I'm under so much pressure!

“Okay, once the municipality is confirmed next year, I’ll slow down my work pace a bit and start our baby-making plan,” Yang Chen said with a smile.

Chen Xi immediately said, "Then it's settled. I'm the eldest, and I must give birth to the eldest son. There's no room for discussion."

Yang Chen laughed and asked, "I can't decide that either. I can't control when you get pregnant, or whether it's a boy or a girl."

“Then let genetic engineers help us edit genes, customizing the sex and the optimal genes for the child. Yang Chen’s eldest son must be a genius. What do you think?” Chen Xi said.

To be honest, Yang Chen's group of genetic workers definitely have the ability to edit a child's genes and control the sex of the fertilized egg. However, doing so is against ethics and morality, and the consequences are unpredictable. No one knows what a child born from artificially modified genes will become.

“That’s definitely not going to work. There aren’t enough experimental samples to determine whether children conceived through genetic modification will be freaks. We still want to conceive and have children naturally, boys and girls are the same, they will all receive my love equally,” Yang Chen said.

Chen Xi was clever and understood what Yang Chen meant. She quickly smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

That being said, the concept of primogeniture is deeply ingrained in the hearts of the people of Longguo, so Yang Chen's first son will definitely receive preferential treatment, which is inevitable. Therefore, it is understandable that Chen Xi wants to have a legitimate eldest son.

Around 10 p.m., Wall Street CEOs sent Yang Chen a video conference request.

When Yang Chen joined the video conference, the CEOs immediately began to flatter him.

"Mr. Yang, you look even more handsome than before, after just one day!"

"Fuck! Can't you at least put some effort into this? Let Mr. Yang see our sincerity, okay? Be professional!"

"Then what else can I say? When praising a man, you either praise his great abilities or his good looks. Mr. Yang's abilities are obvious to people all over the world and don't need any praise, so you can only praise his looks."

"You make it sound like Mr. Yang's good looks aren't universally acknowledged. Even in my prime, I would avoid him. Isn't he handsome enough?"

Yang Chen quickly interrupted, "Stop, stop, stop! It's such a waste of your talents that you're not doing crosstalk. You two are such a good team. It's the middle of the night here, I don't have time to listen to your nonsense. Say something meaningful to give me some energy."

"Haha..." The CEOs burst into laughter in unison.

Pacquiao quickly replied, "Haha... Mr. Yang is right, we should indeed talk about some more informative topics. We have already calculated the profit from this operation, and we will report it to Mr. Yang in turn. BlackRock's profit is 104.38 billion euros."

The other presidents quickly followed up with reports on their respective battle situations.

Goldman Sachs reported a profit of 98.46 billion euros!

JPMorgan Chase reported a profit of €88.28 billion! Citigroup reported a profit of €76.88 billion!

……

According to the previous agreement, each company would give half of its profits to Yang Chen as a token of gratitude, which means that Yang Chen could receive approximately 229.46 billion euros from these companies.

Based on the operational scale of these companies, Sihai Investment roughly estimated that Yang Chen would receive approximately 228.46 billion euros. The two figures were not far apart, and Yang Chen accepted the profit reports submitted by the presidents of each company.

Yang Chen said with a smile, "Congratulations to everyone for making money. You can probably achieve your targets ahead of schedule this year."

"Haha..." The CEOs burst into laughter again.

“We have to thank Mr. Yang for this. Without his cooperation, we wouldn’t have made this money,” BlackRock President Manny Pacquiao said with a smile.

Vanguard President Barkley followed up, saying, "I really hope we can maintain this friendly relationship with Mr. Yang, but unfortunately, reality is too helpless, and there are some things we simply cannot control."

Yang Chen quickly said, "Alright, stop saying things that ruin the atmosphere. At least right now, we're all happy. I've repeatedly emphasized that I'll still cooperate with you if there's an opportunity, and I won't hold a grudge against you just because your superiors are causing trouble. But if you cause trouble yourselves, then don't blame me for getting angry. That's all for now, I need to rest. I'm logging off."

Pacquiao quickly replied, "Okay, Mr. Yang, please get some rest. We will transfer the money due to you into your personal account as soon as possible."

Yang Chen nodded and immediately logged off to rest.

The next morning, military representative Jiang Wenming called Yang Chen.

As soon as Jiang Wenming answered the phone, he laughed and asked, "Chairman Yang, good morning! I'm so sorry to call you so early. I hope I haven't disturbed your rest."

Yang Chen laughed and replied, "Mr. Jiang, you're being too polite. Just say what you need to say; there's no need for all this formality."

Jiang Wenming quickly said, "Haha... Okay, then I'll get straight to the point. We've been trying out your jerseys and shoes these past few days, and they're really great. The color-changing function, in particular, is amazing. We'd like to equip the military with these kinds of clothes and shoes, which can change color according to the soldiers' environment for better camouflage. Is this feasible?"

This is a huge order! Not only can people wear clothes with color-changing functions, but equipment can also wear color-changing outer garments. With so many active and reserve soldiers and so much equipment across the country, if we entrust Sihai Sports with producing clothes and equipment outer garments, wouldn't they make a fortune?

Yang Chen immediately said, "If it's just about changing color based on the environment, then of course it can be done."

Jiang Wenming said happily, "That's great. When it's time to start work, I'll report to my supervisor. If the supervisor approves the layout, I'll immediately lead a team to Sihai Sports for a detailed discussion."

Yang Chen replied with a smile, "Okay, I'll wait for Mr. Jiang's news."

Plasma films are simply too expensive. It's cost-effective to equip high-value equipment like fighter jets with them, but it's obviously too extravagant to equip ordinary weapons and soldiers with them.

Of course, if one day the soldiers really need plasma films to evade enemy radar and satellite detection, Yang Chen will personally pay for it to be provided to all the soldiers, after all, they are risking their lives to protect the country and the people on the battlefield.

However, Yang Chen will still make his profit from these normal military procurements.

When it was time to start work, Jiang Wenming immediately reported to his supervisor that Sihai Sports could produce color-changing clothing. The supervisor immediately approved the plan and ordered Jiang Wenming to lead a team to Sihai Sports for a detailed discussion.

Yang Chen received a call from Chen Yulong, president of Sihai Sports, and went there in person to negotiate with Jiang Wenming's team.

Jiang Wenming said, "Our basic requirement is that the clothing and shoes must be able to change color according to the environment. For example, if we are in a grassland or dense forest, the clothing should be green. If we are in a snowy environment, the clothing should be white. They also need to have functions such as sweat absorption and quick drying, so that the soldiers can fight better if they are comfortable. The shoes can be made according to current technology, but they should also have the function of changing color with the clothing, and the design should be based on military shoes. Chairman Yang, do you think these requirements can be met?"

Yang Chen looked at Chen Yulong, who immediately said, "Chairman Yang, Mr. Jiang, let's have our professional engineers answer this question. Engineer Liu, please explain it to Chairman Yang and Mr. Jiang."

The engineer immediately stood up and said, “Hello Chairman Yang, hello Mr. Jiang. I will answer Mr. Jiang’s question. Our current technology allows clothing to change to five colors, no more than that. This means we can design clothing to simulate five common environments, such as green grass and jungle, yellow withered grass, white snow, and blue ocean. However, for outer garments used on armored vehicles and other equipment, we can design more colors because these outer garments can be made thicker, allowing us to add more color-changing chips to achieve more color variations. As for the basic functions of clothing, such as sweat absorption, breathability, and quick-drying, these are not problems.”

Jiang Wenming nodded and said, "So, can I understand that summer clothes can change into 5 colors, and winter down jackets can change into more colors?"

The engineer smiled and nodded, saying, "That's true. More chips can be added to the down jacket for color changing, potentially more than the vehicle covers used for armored vehicles. However, since it's for soldiers, we can't just consider thickness and warmth; we also need to consider factors like ease of movement. So we need to find the optimal data."

Jiang Wenming nodded and asked, "And the price?"

The engineer looked at Chen Yulong; the price was not something an engineer like him could answer.

Chen Yulong didn't dare to quote a price, since it was for military use; quoting too high or too low would be inappropriate.

Yang Chen smiled and said, "We'll have to wait until our sample design is ready before we can confirm. Mr. Jiang, please wait for my news."

Jiang Wenming quickly explained, "Chairman Yang, please don't misunderstand. The leadership has instructed me that no matter what price you offer, I am not allowed to haggle. Therefore, Chairman Yang only needs to give me a price so I can report to the leadership. Chairman Yang can decide the price himself; we don't need a sample or consider any other factors."

What a great leader! He always handles things perfectly.

"Thank you for taking care of our private enterprise, Mr. Chen. Please calculate a rough price for me immediately," Yang Chen said.

Chen Yulong quickly replied, "Okay, Chairman Yang. Engineer Liu, let's go calculate the price."

Engineer Liu nodded and left with Chen Yulong.

About half an hour later, Chen Yulong sent Yang Chen a set of data.

For example, the cost price of summer clothes is about 60-70, and Yang Chen can quote a price based on this cost range.

"Summer clothes are priced at 100 yuan per piece, and winter down jackets are priced at 800 yuan per piece..."

Yang Chen stated the price of each product, and Jiang Wenming accepted them all without haggling.

Both parties immediately signed a contract, and the Supply Department placed a direct order with Sihai Sports. Subsequently, Sihai Sports and the Supply Department jointly issued a cooperation announcement... (End of this chapter)
