The divorce comeback system arrived right after I was born.

When Chen Zhi got up from the custom-made bed, which was more than two meters wide, at Wanliu Academy, Pei Ningxue had already changed into a smart business suit.

A fitted black women's suit, exuding the aura of a female CEO.

She placed a glass of hot milk on the bedside table.

"Get up quickly, today is the day to meet the investors." Pei Ningxue reached out and pinched Chen Zhi's cheek.

Chen Zhi yawned, then casually put his arm around her waist and kissed her on the lips.

"What's the rush? Let them wait a bit. They're the ones begging us for money now."

We arrived at the basement level of Science Building No. 1.

The temporary office area of ​​Deep Space Technology is already packed with financial elites in suits.

These financial elites, who usually work in office buildings, are now crammed into an unheated basement, rubbing their hands in the cold, but none of them are willing to leave.

Moss's sudden emergence made capital around the world smell blood.

As soon as Chen Zhi entered his office, representatives from Beijing Infrastructure Investment Co., Ltd. came to his door.

The man who came was a middle-aged man in his forties, surnamed Wang, with a calm and composed demeanor.

"President Chen, Director Li asked me to give you his regards." President Wang handed over his business card with a smile.

Chen Zhi understood. This was the national team sent by the government.

The two sat down in the reception room.

Mr. Wang didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"Beijing Infrastructure Investment Co., Ltd. (BII) is very sincere. Based on a valuation of 10 billion US dollars, we will invest 1 billion US dollars to take a 10% stake."

Mr. Wang took a sip of tea and continued to place his bets.

"Besides funding, we can provide Deep Space Technology with a piece of land specifically for building a supercomputing center. You can choose the location yourself. In addition, we will provide the green light for subsequent low-interest loans and tax incentives."

These conditions are absolutely top-tier in China.

They have money, land, and policy support.

Chen Zhi interlaced his fingers and nodded slightly.

"President Wang, I will certainly give Director Li face. I have also seen Beijing Investment Group's sincerity. However, there are quite a few friends from Wall Street sitting outside today, and I have to meet them and go through the motions."

Mr. Wang was a smart man and knew that Chen Zhi wanted to take advantage of foreign investment, so he nodded.

"Understood. Then we'll wait for Mr. Chen's good news."

After seeing Mr. Wang off, Pei Ningxue walked in carrying a thick stack of documents.

"What should we do with those foreign investors? People from Hillhouse Capital, SoftBank, and Tencent Investment Department are all here."

Pei Ningxue slapped several business cards on the table.

"SoftBank even offered a valuation of 20 billion US dollars. As long as you agree, the money will be in your account immediately."

Chen Zhi glanced at the business cards and picked out two.

"BlackRock and Sequoia. Keep these two, and get rid of the rest."

Pei Ningxue was stunned.

"Why? These two companies didn't offer the highest prices."

Chen Zhi patiently explained to Pei Ningxue.

"We want more than just money."

"AI will absolutely be at the core of great power competition in the future. Domestic protection alone is not enough."

"BlackRock is known as the shadow emperor of the global financial system, and Sequoia has deep roots in Silicon Valley. By getting them on board, these Wall Street vampires will be our best shield when we go overseas to buy A100 chips or face technological blockades from the United States."

Pei Ningxue suddenly realized.

"Got it. So how do we determine the valuation? Ten billion US dollars?"

Chen Zhi stroked his chin, revealing a playful smile.

"Ten billion is too cheap for them. Today we'll teach Wall Street a lesson."

Half an hour later, in Deep Space Technology's largest conference room.

Smith, head of BlackRock Asia Pacific, John, partner at Sequoia Capital, and Mr. Wang from Beijing Infrastructure Investment Co., Ltd. sat on either side.

The atmosphere was tense.

But what gave them even more trouble was a blond, blue-eyed, fat white man sitting at the end of the long table.

This fat man is named Jack, and he represents an overseas institution called "Goodnight Capital".

"Shit!" Smith muttered to John beside him in English, "Is this 'Goodnight Capital' company out of their minds? They've been driving up prices like crazy since they walked in!"

John's face also looked very grim.

"Where did these lunatics come from?"

Smith flipped through the tablet in his hand.

"A rising star in the investment world in the last two years. His background is very mysterious, and his amount of capital is astonishing."

"They heavily invested in Yin Fu Tiao Dong, holding a large number of shares. They also bought Tesla and Nvidia at the lowest points."

Smith became increasingly alarmed as he looked at the document.

"These people have an extremely sharp eye for investment; they always use very little capital to leverage the greatest returns. Their boss is definitely an incredibly formidable financial genius."

John took a deep breath and stared at Jack across from him.

"Since Goodnight Capital is so bullish on Deep Space Technology, even going so far as to maliciously inflate its price, it means they believe Moss is the next big thing!"

Smith nodded emphatically.

"That's right! Even Goodnight Capital is biting us like a mad dog, we absolutely cannot back down. We must take them down!"

The meeting room door was pushed open.

Chen Zhi led Pei Ningxue in.

The group of financial tycoons fell silent instantly, their eyes all turning to the eighteen-year-old.

Chen Zhi pulled out the chair in the main seat, sat down, sighed, and pretended to be in a very difficult position.

"Everyone, I'm really sorry. Deep Space Technology currently has a significant computing power shortage and does indeed need funding."

"But the quotes given by everyone are too wide apart."

As soon as Chen Zhi finished speaking, Jack from Goodnight Capital slammed his hand on the table and stood up.

"Mr. Chen! We at Goodnight Capital are very optimistic about Moss's future!"

Jack spoke broken Chinese, his face full of enthusiasm.

"A valuation of $13 billion! We're willing to invest $2.6 billion for a 20% stake! And we will absolutely not interfere in the company's operations!"

Upon hearing this, a collective gasp filled the conference room.

A Series A valuation of $13 billion!

Generally speaking, a valuation of several billion is already among the world's top, but Deep Space Technology's valuation reached tens of billions in its Series A round.

Mr. Wang, the general manager of Beijing Investment Group, frowned slightly.

This foreign investment is too aggressive; it has directly raised the threshold to 3 billion.

Smith and John exchanged a glance, both seeing the urgency in each other's eyes.

Goodnight Capital is trying to monopolize everything!

Absolutely not!

"Wait a minute!" Smith suddenly stood up, bracing himself on the table with both hands.

"Mr. Chen, BlackRock and Sequoia are willing to co-lead the investment!"

Smith gritted his teeth and quoted an astronomical figure.

"A valuation of $15 billion! Our two companies will jointly invest $3 billion, taking a 20% stake!"

John immediately followed suit.

"Furthermore, Sequoia can leverage its resources in Silicon Valley to create a streamlined process for Deep Space Technology's hardware procurement. Whatever chips you need, we guarantee we can ship them to China!"

This is the bargaining chip Chen Zhi wants most.

Pei Ningxue, sitting next to him, had sweaty palms.

15 billion US dollars!

That's nearly 100 billion RMB!

This company, which was founded less than a few months ago, became a multi-billion dollar behemoth in its Series A funding round?

Chen Zhi turned to look at General Manager Wang of Beijing Investment Group.

"Mr. Wang, the foreign investors are incredibly enthusiastic. And Beijing Investment Group..."

President Wang is also a decisive person. Director Li instructed that Deep Space Technology must be retained, and the national team must be involved.

"Beijing Infrastructure Investment Co., Ltd. will co-invest!" President Wang declared emphatically. "Based on a valuation of 15 billion yuan, we will contribute 1.5 billion US dollars, acquiring a 10% stake. The land and policies promised earlier will be provided in full!"

Chen Zhi was overjoyed, but on the surface, he pretended to be very conflicted and pondered for half a minute.

"Alright."

Chen Zhi nodded reluctantly.

"Since everyone is so sincere, then it's settled."

"Beijing Investment Group owns 10%, BlackRock and Sequoia Capital own 20%. As for Goodnight Capital..."

Chen Zhi looked at the fat white man, Jack, and gave him an apologetic smile.

"I'm so sorry, I can only look forward to the next collaboration."

Jack perfectly played along, putting on a heartbroken and grief-stricken expression, and angrily slammed his fist on the table.

Smith and John felt a surge of secret pleasure watching Jack's discomfiture.

Trying to fight us? You Goodnight Capital are still too green!

Snatching a share from such a mysterious conglomerate is an absolute steal!

Half an hour later.

A financing agreement worth US$4.5 billion was officially signed.

Smith and John left the basement satisfied with the contract.

General Manager Wang also went back to report.

Only Chen Zhi and Pei Ningxue remained in the office.

Pei Ningxue looked at the contracts worth 4.5 billion US dollars on the table and felt like she was dreaming.

"A valuation of 15 billion US dollars—if that got out, it would cause an earthquake throughout Wall Street!"

"And what about Goodnight Capital? Are they stupid? They inflated the valuation by five billion out of thin air, and ended up not getting a single share for themselves?"

Chen Zhi picked up his teacup, took a sip, and looked at her with a smile.

"They're not stupid, they're very smart."

Pei Ningxue was stunned.

"What do you mean?"

Chen Zhi took out his phone and dialed an international long-distance call.

The call was quickly connected, and David's exaggerated laughter came from the other end.

"Boss! How did Jack do just now? Does he have the potential to win an Oscar?"

Chen Zhi had the hands-free mode on.

"Good performance, give him a bonus. Tell the operators at Goodnight Capital to prepare the funds and transfer them in as soon as Deep Space Technology's shell company overseas is registered."

"Got it, boss! Those Wall Street idiots are probably still popping champagne and celebrating right now, hahaha!"

The phone hangs up.

The office was deathly silent.

Pei Ningxue stared wide-eyed, pointing incredulously at Chen Zhi's phone.

"Goodnight Capital...is it yours?"

Chen Zhi shrugged.

"Otherwise what? Who do you think would be so kind as to come and act as a benefactor, helping me carry my sedan chair?"

Pei Ningxue gasped.

Transfer from left hand to right hand!

They used their overseas shells to inflate valuations, forcing BlackRock and Sequoia to reluctantly buy in!

This tactic is even more ruthless than those vampires on Wall Street!

"You..." Pei Ningxue pointed at Chen Zhi, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

"How many secrets do you still have that I don't know?" Pei Ningxue asked with a hint of resentment.

Chen Zhi lifted her chin. "What? Now you know how powerful your brother is, right?"

Chen Zhi turned around.

"Alright, the money's in, now it's time for a crazy expansion."
