Chapter 695 Swallowing 400 Billion US Dollars? Three-Way Negotiations, Boss Chen's Grand Strategy!
"Opening price: $60; closing price: $77.4; market capitalization: $1904 billion?"

The next morning, in villa number 116 of Yunjin, Chen Yansen sat in the living room, casually flipping through news related to Ali's IPO.

In his memory, Ali's market value on its first day of listing should have been more than 2300 billion US dollars.

This shows that, due to the impact of Pinduoduo, Ali's market value was swallowed up by 400 billion US dollars.

If this trend continues, and if Ali fails to deliver impressive performance results by mid-February next year, its market capitalization of $190 billion may be difficult to maintain once the fourth-quarter financial report is released.

Chen Yansen put down his phone, secretly thinking: With Lao Ma's stubborn nature of not turning back until he hits a wall, he's probably going to completely turn against him this time.

It seems that the "ceasefire agreement" previously signed by Senlian Capital, Ali, and Qiandu has reached the point where it should be torn up.

Ultimately, there's no such thing as true trust among businessmen!

However, Mr. Ma's methods are limited to a few tricks, which are nothing more than relying on throwing money at the problem.

With such a simple and brutal way of competing for market share, does Senlian Capital really think it's afraid of him?
Chen Yansen leaned back on the sofa, squinting as he pondered: Should he resort to some underhanded tactics?

Given his relationship with the business association, it would be easy for him to label Lao Ma as "disrupting market order and suspected of malicious competition".

Old Ma, I hope you can be more discerning and sensible.

Chen Yansen sneered, got up and walked outside, then got into a black Maybach and drove straight to the International Conference Center.

at the same time.

Li Xiang, chairman of Autohome, founded Li Auto in Yanjing and officially announced his entry into the new energy vehicle industry.

Together with Orange, XPeng, NIO, and LeEco, which were established the previous year, these five car companies have been dubbed the "Five New Forces in Car Manufacturing" by the media.

2014 is widely recognized as the inaugural year of new energy vehicles.

In the eyes of the media and netizens, Orange Auto is undoubtedly the most anticipated car company.

First, it has a solid hardware foundation. DeepBlue Technology can provide high-performance lithium-sulfur battery packs, Tiangong Technology can supply vehicle chips, and Zhicheng Technology is responsible for developing voice interaction assistants and intelligent driving technology. The core technology support of the entire industry chain is readily available.
Secondly, it has abundant funds. Although Senlian Capital has never disclosed the group's annual net profit, it is estimated based on publicly available online data that its annual profit is at least 2000 billion yuan.
Third, it has an unparalleled supply chain advantage. Relying on the resources of Senlian Capital, Orange Auto can obtain almost all the high-quality spare parts on the market, without having to worry about supply chain bottlenecks.

In fact, what they didn't know was that Senlian Precision Machinery, which had only been established for a short time, was not only busy producing the Zhulong G1051 five-axis linkage CNC machine tool, but was also simultaneously developing and manufacturing a 9000-ton ultra-large die-casting machine for Orange Auto.

Although Orange Auto has neither started as early as BYD nor has the deep foundation of traditional automakers in the field of car manufacturing, its overall strength should not be underestimated.

the other side.

After more than a month of chaotic fighting, the Abyssinian Central Command's regular army lost three cities in succession, and even several satellite cities around the capital Asberba were captured by the Omoro armed front.

Under Leggi's command, the Central Command's regular army suffered repeated defeats.

The Tireg Armed Front, which had previously suffered a severe beating from the Omoro Armed Front, decided, after careful consideration, to temporarily set aside its differences and join forces with the Omoro Armed Front.

Both sides spared no effort in this battle, bringing not only a large number of howitzers, tanks and armed helicopters, but also all the equipment they usually kept under wraps, in preparation for taking Asberba.

Ultimately, the three forces converged on the outskirts of Hamra State.

But if you really asked them to fire shells at the city center, no one would dare.

It should be understood that the city is lined with embassies of various countries. If a shell misses its mark and accidentally provokes a powerful nation, none of them will escape unscathed.

The head of the central command, Behannu, pondered deeply all night. The next day, he called Leggi and Daji respectively, requesting a meeting and talks.

He knew very well that the reason why the Omoro and Tireg armed fronts were currently so powerful was simply because they had not yet truly tasted power.

Once you're hooked on this right, it's even harder to quit than taking heroin.

For this reason, Behannu intends to voluntarily relinquish some of his interests and bring these two forces under his control.

In his view, as long as they are brought into the central government's system and checked and balanced by rules at each level, there will always be a way to keep them firmly under control in the future.

……

……

Inside the camp of the Omoro Armed Front.

“Boss, the Hamra people are not trustworthy at all,” Meraku said, mustering his courage, his expression grave.

“Meraku, you need to understand one thing first: peace talks are not a bad thing; at least they can save your people from bloodshed.”

We've been fighting for forty-two years; this kind of conflict should have ended long ago!

Leggi raised his hand to touch the scar on his forehead, his tone heavy. He paused and then said, "If you want to fight for more economic, educational and political resources for your people, joining the Central Command is the most feasible option. You must understand that gunfire and violence may seize land, but they can never hold onto it."

In his mind, peace talks were never about surrendering, much less admitting defeat!

The Central Command is the second battlefield for the Omoro people!
The entire tribe had waited for this day for over forty years. Even knowing that what lay ahead might be a trap, he had to step into it!
Moreover, the big boss of Senlian Capital had already promised to fully support the Omoro people in gaining ultimate control of Abyssinia.

Every time he thought of that supreme position of power, Leggei's heart would flutter.

Senlian Capital is using him, but isn't he also using Senlian Capital?
The only problem is that every time he interacts with the other party, his goodwill towards Chinese people, China, and Senlian Capital will unconsciously increase.

He himself was unaware of this change.

"Yes, boss, I understand," Meraku nodded in response.

In any case, it was Leggei who strongly advocated for cooperation with Senlian Capital, which enabled the Omoro people to sell their cattle, sheep, and coffee for better prices, in exchange for more wealth and food, so that even his family could have enough to eat every day.

This is also the main reason why Leggi was able to successfully persuade the senior leaders of the Omoro Armed Front to agree to come for peace talks.

As a boss, your competence is judged by whether the ordinary people under you can eat their fill and enjoy a stable living environment.

In this respect, previous leaders of the Leggibiomoro Armed Front were far superior.

……

……

The talks were scheduled to take place at an abandoned airfield outside Hamra region, which had once been a training base for the Abyssinian Air Force.

Now all that remains are a cracked runway and a rusty hangar, which has become a compromise due to the mutual distrust among the three parties.

The rain gradually subsided at 3 p.m.

Behanno arrived in a Mercedes armored vehicle and slowly pulled up at the hangar entrance.

From a distance, one could see Leggi and Dajim, each leading a group of heavily armed men, sitting clearly separated at simple folding tables and chairs.

Leggi was dressed in a dark green combat uniform, with an old-fashioned pistol at his waist, and the scars on his face were particularly noticeable in the sunlight.

Dajim, dressed in a sharp suit, stood out starkly from his dilapidated surroundings, his Rolex gleaming brightly on his wrist.

One is a penniless wretch, the other a nouveau riche!

Behannu chuckled and gave a precise assessment.

A short while later, after the car came to a stop, Behanno stepped out of the bulletproof limousine and, surrounded by security personnel, walked toward the location of the two men.

Despite his imposing appearance, he was terrified inside, fearing that Leggi and Dajim would be unethical and stab him in the back.

“Please sit down!” Legge said, pointing to a folding chair as Behannu approached.

"I'm sorry to have kept you both waiting."

Behannu sat down with a thud, smiled, and extended his right hand.

Dajim snorted coldly, showing no intention of shaking hands. Although he was wearing a suit, it did not mean he was a civilized person.

To put it bluntly, he's still all about fighting and killing at heart. Before Leggi could speak, he couldn't hold back and said urgently, "I don't have time to waste with you. Just say what you have to say."

Leggi smiled and shook Behanu's hand, saying slowly, "Violence cannot solve the problem; peace talks are the only way out. As long as the Central Bureau can give the Omoro people enough benefits, we are willing to serve the Central Bureau."

Behannu sneered inwardly, but remained outwardly calm: "Please rest assured, both of you. The Central Command is willing to grant the Omoro and Tireg tribes administrative authority over three states each, and will allocate 10 billion US dollars annually for the economic development and education of both tribes."

Upon hearing this, Leggi frowned: "Three states are too few. The area we control is already larger than that of the Tireg tribe, and we are stronger. We need at least five states."

Dajim's face darkened, and he barely suppressed the urge to curse, retorting with extreme displeasure, "You mean, Tireg is not strong enough?"

When Behannu saw the two men start arguing so fiercely that they were about to draw their swords, he felt much more at ease.

With their brains, how could they possibly be a match for me?

As for Legge's demand for jurisdiction over five states, that's nothing short of delusional!

After all, Abyssinia only has 12 ethnic provinces and 2 autonomous regions. If they are all assigned to the Omoro and Tireg ethnic groups, how can the rights of the Hamra people be protected?
Legogi abandoned Behannu and argued with Dajim regardless of the occasion, but he was secretly observing the changes in Behannu's expression out of the corner of his eye.

He wanted Behannu to think that he was just a simple-minded political novice.

Only in this way will it be easier for him to act when he enters the central government and then competes with the Hamra people for the ownership of power.

“Yes, what’s wrong?” Leggi looked at Dajim and asked with a smile.

These words instantly ignited Dajim's anger.
