I can become stronger by paying salaries. I have one billion employees!

Chapter 625 European Trip, a 100 Billion Dollar Deal! Handsome Dong: Call me Number One!
In mid-May, Chinese netizens learned about Chen Yansen's daily activities either through CCTV news reports or through videos shared by Chinese people in Europe.

"Li Qingsong led a delegation to Europe, and Chen Yansen went too!"

"Chen Yansen's European trip begins in London: He secures a $30 billion energy storage battery order!"

"The president of Aston Martin presented Chen Yansen with a V12 Vantage S sports car and signed an $8 million power battery procurement cooperation agreement with DeepBlue Technology. A pure electric sports car with a range of over 1600 kilometers may be launched by the end of the year."

"I ran into Brother Sen feeding pigeons in Trafalgar Square. He's tall and handsome."

A Weibo post with a group photo garnered 100,000 likes in just half a day.

In the photo, Chen Yansen is wearing a simple white shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his forearms. To his right stands a Chinese international student with a bright smile.

Upon seeing this, netizens flocked to the comments section to discuss: "A little-known fact: Sen is a senior in college this year and hasn't graduated yet."

"The thought that Sen is just like me, having to bury himself in writing papers makes me feel much better instantly."

"Do you think the 2 million yuan in cash that Brother Sen donated to the school is just toilet paper? Anyone who dares to obstruct Brother Sen's thesis will be expelled the next day for 'entering the office with their left foot'!"

Over the next few days, Chen Yansen accompanied the business delegation to France, Germany, and Italy.

After a round of negotiations, orders for energy storage batteries alone amounted to $80 billion, and with the addition of the power battery business, the estimated total revenue exceeded $100 billion.

It also includes supply orders from some European motorcycle brands.

After all, the Orange MT300's appearance is so terrible, yet it still managed to sell more than 10 units in Europe, which shows that the market demand for long-range electric motorcycles is very strong.

Chen Yansen occupied almost all the top spots on the headlines of the three major portal websites, Toutiao, Tencent News, Douyin, and Kuaishou.

Li Qingsong truly regarded Chen Yansen as a representative of young Chinese entrepreneurs, and would always bring him along when attending high-level exchange meetings.

As a result, Chen Yansen's image frequently appeared in the footage of the National Daily and CCTV.

A week of intensive travel has given netizens in Europe a deeper understanding of Chen Yansen.

Previously, many people only knew him as the founder of Mimo short video and Orange mobile phone.

But as local media delved deeper into the story, it became surprising to discover that KuaiPao, the app used for ordering takeout, ShortMimo, the app used for watching silly short dramas, and the lithium-sulfur batteries used in smartphones were all products of Senlian Capital.

Someone dug up a report from the French news agency in April and once again labeled him "Modern Alexandria."

Of course, the domestic media translated it as "the modern version of Champion Marquis"!
The world's richest man at the age of 22 is a figure who defies conventional wisdom, regardless of the country or region in which he is located.

The French newspaper Le Figaro even dedicated an entire page to Chen Yansen, with the headline "An Entrepreneur Who Transcends Eras—From College Student to the Helmsman of a Trillion-Dollar Enterprise!"

The content details Chen Yansen's entrepreneurial journey, from the shopping guide e-commerce platform FoxTao to the social e-commerce platform Pinbei, and then to products such as Orange Technology, KuaiPao, and YunSu. From zero to one, from nothing to something, he has risen to prominence in the fiercely competitive Chinese e-commerce circle in just four years!

The Times of London, on the other hand, chose to approach the issue from the perspective of "industrial penetration," with a sharp and precise headline: The Expansion Path of an Invisible Capital Empire.

The article dedicates half a page to outlining Senlian Capital's European expansion: from the penetration rate of Mimo and ShortMimo among young people in the UK, to the market share of KuaiPao and KuaiGo, and the influence of DeepBlue Battery on Aston Martin and BMW, it emphasizes one fact: the business reach of this 22-year-old Chinese billionaire has already quietly integrated into the daily lives of Europeans.

As the trade delegation embarked on its return journey, CCTV released a video of Chen Yansen's speech at Cambridge University.

He spoke entirely without notes, and his English was as fluent as a local's.

Before long, clips of Chen Yansen's speech appeared everywhere on Douyin. In the comments section, netizens discussed it heatedly: "It seems that although Xucheng Academy is a second-tier university, the teachers' oral English teaching is really good. Brother Sen's English expression ability is even stronger than Teacher Ma's."

"Haven't you all watched Pinduoduo's IPO livestream? Brother Sen's English is so good, he can leave reporters speechless!"

"Does anyone from the virtual college know who Chen Yansen's English teacher is? My niece is taking the IELTS exam and is willing to pay a high price for his tutoring."

Coincidentally, Hao Junbao, an English teacher at the Virtual Academy, happened to see this comment. His face darkened, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across his eyes.

“I also want to teach Mr. Chen, but he didn’t attend a single class in his four years of university. I’m willing but unable to do so.”

Hao Junbao silently complained to himself.

at the same time.

Liu Qiangdong's report on his second live-streaming sales event was also posted on his official Weibo account.

The four-hour live stream covered multiple categories including digital home appliances, food, automotive products, and outdoor equipment, and was conducted on two platforms simultaneously, generating a total transaction volume of 10419.7 million yuan.

Liangzai Dong's Douyin followers surged again, easily surpassing the 10 million mark, and he has also accumulated more than 3 million followers on Kuaishou.

"Isn't streaming on two platforms against the rules?"

“Liangzai Dong is Sen Ge’s little brother, and Senlian Capital is Dong’s major shareholder, so it’s normal for him to receive some special treatment.”

When will Dong Ge (Brother Dong) do a live stream with Milk Tea (Milk Tea)?

"There's a popular comedian on Kuaishou called 'Hotpot,' who sold 2000 million yuan worth of goods in his first live-streaming sales event yesterday, earning a whopping 500 million yuan in commissions!"

The trend of live-streaming sales is gaining momentum in the e-commerce industry!

Related MCN agencies and product selection intermediary companies sprang up like mushrooms after rain, with hundreds appearing overnight.

Brands that originally only joined Tmall Mall have had to join Pinduoduo and start trying out the live streaming model as their sales on Douyin and Kuaishou continue to rise.

……

At 11:30 p.m., a Gulfstream 550 slowly landed at Luzhou Xinqiao Airport.

Chen Yansen descended the gangway and got into the back seat of a Hongqi L5 car, with Song Yuncheng following closely behind.

Huang Boxiang put the two people's luggage into the trunk, then got into the driver's seat and sped off towards Bihu Yunxi.

The night wind howled outside the window, and on the winding overpass, only the streetlights cast dim yellow light, making the car's reflection appear very long.

Chen Yansen leaned back in his chair, pondering the matter of collaborating with Penguin.

As for whether Little Ma would agree, he wasn't worried at all.

Just as Tencent was able to separate its input method and search engine businesses and merge them with Sogou, it can also independently separate its entertainment industry and form a deep partnership with Senlian Capital.
