I was in my final year of high school, and my deskmate found out I was writing a novel!

Negotiations can't be finalized in just one or two rounds, as they involve a significant amount of money.

Lu Chengyu didn't have time to play games with the other party. He directly sent his men to deal with them while he continued to inspect other companies.

Ye Feng's words gave him direction. Yes, so what if the company is small? He can just invest money and then poach people. He just doesn't believe it!

As for Huawei, the talks went very well. They wanted to increase their market share and complained that selling electronic control systems was more profitable!

However, they haven't even shown a trace of anything yet; at most, they've only discussed the intention, which has no real significance.

......

"Xixi, it's Daddy!"

"Daddy~!"

"dad!"

"Daddy~"

Six months have passed, and Xixi can walk now and can say "daddy" and "mommy".

He speaks a little unclearly.

Ye Feng has been spending all his free time home lately, bonding with his daughter.

I just lay on the ground like a horse and was thinking of taking a rest.

Ye Feng has been quite busy these past six months, and Lu Chengyu has also been extremely busy. In the past six months, he has finally returned all the shares held by Ye Feng.

He now only has 5% of the game company's shares left, which he exchanged for shares in several companies they were optimistic about. He also sold a portion of his shares directly to Tencent and Wealth Creation, cashing out.

To balance the two companies, the shares allocated were calculated to ensure they are on equal footing.

Investors had their doubts about his withdrawal and were reluctant to let him leave, but Tencent and Zhifubao were willing to let him go!

Given what happened with Liu Wei, Ye Feng's actions were perfectly reasonable; he simply couldn't stay any longer.

I was playing with my daughter when the phone rang. I was thinking of just ignoring it, but I stopped when I saw the caller ID.

He received a call from Lu Chengyu, and fearing something might have happened, he handed the child to Miaomiao and quickly took out his phone.

"What's wrong?"

"Mr. Ye, great news! We've achieved mass production of gaseous lithium batteries!"

"Huh? So fast?"

"I didn't expect it either! Lao Gao just called me and told me to go check it out!"

"Wow, you've got a good relationship. You're even calling him 'Old Gao' now. Didn't you used to call him Dr. Gao?"

"Hey~ I've been asking him a lot if he needs any help, and that's how we've started contacting each other more often!"

"Okay, okay, then can we proceed with our plan?"

"Yes, the motor factory has the products ready-made, and all we need to do is discuss it with Huawei."

"This is no simple matter, and we don't have the qualifications to manufacture cars... Wait a minute, aren't we an investment company? How did we end up manufacturing cars?"

Ye Feng suddenly realized what had happened to him; he had completely deviated from his original intention!

"This... isn't it all for the better of the company? But then again, we're an investment company, aren't we..."

The two fell silent, neither knowing when the investment company had become like this.

"Since we've come this far, let's keep moving forward. When the new company is established, you can also contribute some money, otherwise all this effort will have been in vain."

"Hehe, I did have that plan, but I was too embarrassed to tell you."

"That's settled then. You'll be in full charge of this. All that's left is to integrate these resources."

"Well, I've already contacted most of them. I'll go talk to Huawei again. If they're willing to support us, everything will be solved. Their supply chain is pretty impressive."

"So, are you planning to start this company yourself or hire someone else?"

"Of course we'll find someone else. I don't know anything about that. Don't worry, Mr. Ye, I've already made preparations. I'll keep an eye on things in the early stages, but we'll definitely need to find someone to take charge later."

"That works too."

The matter was settled. Ye Feng really didn't want to deal with these things; he found them annoying. However, sometimes he couldn't just ignore them.

Just like before, he can't just ignore an investment of several hundred million, can he?

And those share swaps—even if he's lazy, he wouldn't dare to just let go of them.

To be honest, he doesn't understand this company and doesn't want to. Since it's a joint venture between several companies, others can't just watch it go bankrupt!

Plus, there's a gaseous lithium battery too—that's a killer feature!

Professor Gao is really not suited for business. For example, he kept the fact that he had agreed with Lu Chengyu that the battery would be used to manufacture cars and that they would be the first ones to use it!

We're just waiting for Lu Chengyu to pull this company up; he's really straightforward!

Lu Chengyu was also busy; he took the documents and went directly to Huawei to discuss cooperation.

When I first saw the battery description, I thought it was fake. But after seeing it in person, wow, you guys are serious!

They are naturally willing to cooperate. The promotion of HarmonyOS is already difficult. It is currently at a standstill in the mobile phone sector, so breaking through from the automotive sector is also an option.

Then, the new company still followed the "Jie" generation name. This was to ensure that Huawei could truly contribute, and that all the good stuff wasn't piled up at Wenjie.

The company needs to invest in building a new battery factory, but it's out of money.

After Professor Gao and his colleagues got rich, they really became somewhat reckless, investing most of it in research and development, and the money for building a new factory was gone.

Then, of course, we need to raise funds.

Lu Chengyu had nothing to say, as long as their 20% was diluted.

Little did he know that Lao Gao had his eye on him and directly asked him if he wanted to invest. He said if he was willing, he wouldn't be looking for anyone else!

Lu Chengyu immediately thought it would work. The investment company had plenty of cash on hand, and he was just worried about where to use it.

Professor Gao and his team also found Lu Chengyu easy to work with and decided to stick with him!

However, Lu Chengyu also had a good talk with the other party.

"Professor Gao, I think our company needs to change. Like we discussed before, we need to find a professional to manage it. We need to monetize new technologies to have the money to continue research and development!"

"I understand. We've looked at some recently, but we're not very satisfied with any of them. They all think our R&D investment is too high and needs to be cut. But how can we have technology without investing in R&D?"

"You're right. How about this? The new battery is sure to be a hit. It's a perfect fit for car batteries, and the market will definitely be huge in the future."

"Haha, I think so too, but we didn't know before when we would actually be able to use it."

"I didn't expect that either. I thought it would take two or three years. How about this: we set a standard, with a certain percentage of the profits invested in R&D each year. You'll manage the R&D part, and we'll find a professional manager to manage the rest. What do you think?"
