After Divorce, I Can Hear the Future

"Do you really think so?"

Wei Mingliang was surprised, and fortunately, there were no outsiders present; otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to ask such a silly question.

Lu Liang smiled indifferently, "Tianxing OS initially had three cooperation models. I wonder if Mr. Wei still remembers them?"

He continued, "The component supplier model, the TOS deep cooperation model, and the intelligent vehicle model."

"Tianxing never forces any enterprise to make any choice; what it does is simply to make the market better."

The first model involves settling the account after delivery; at most, Tianxing will be responsible for after-sales service and repairs if the intelligent driving system malfunctions.

The second model requires equity participation, although the vehicle's brand still belongs to the car company; Tianxing enjoys certain decision-making rights.

The third model involves participating in product definition, design, channel sales, and the entire process; superficially, the vehicle's brand belongs to the car company, but in reality, it is firmly controlled by Tianxing.

So far, car companies that have cooperated with Tianxing have all chosen the first model, and Lu Liang hasn't forced them to choose the second or third model.

The auxiliary driving system and the control system are completely different systems.

If there's a fault with software, at most it results in a black screen without affecting normal driving, but hardware faults can be fatal.

Regarding the integrated casting technology used by Tianxing, how many domestic car companies can achieve it?

If you don't have diamond skills, don't take on porcelain work.

Lu Liang has a good grasp, so he won't let Tianxing Automobile expand blindly and tarnish the brand's tone.

Although this is an act of cherishing feathers, it can also be dressed up as all actions are for the prosperity and development of the market, wearing this glamorous coat.

"Mr. Lu's level, although I can't reach it, my heart longs for it."

Wei Mingliang was filled with complex emotions; talking with Lu Liang often made one overlook his real age.

Lu Liang smiled indifferently, jokingly said, "President Yu is enlightening, teaching, and solving problems. Mr. Wei, won't you join in the fun?"

Wei Mingliang shook his head, "Shen Lan doesn't have any new car release plans recently; we still need to focus on digesting the production capacity of the S07."

"Since I'm idle, let's go and see what President Yu is discussing."

Lu Liang smiled and suddenly strode forward towards Yu Dazui's group; Wei Mingliang followed closely, "Isn't there a need to ask about the financing matters?"

"Not necessary." Lu Liang shook his head, having already handed out 3.2 billion US dollars, still to local capital institutions.

Temasek, Softbank, Vanguard, and other international consortiums have yet to take action; 4 billion US dollars might not be enough to divide among them.

He had that confidence.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the first public discussion meeting of Hongmeng Intelligent Travel will be held in Shenzhen on the 28th of this month…"

Yu Dazui stood among the crowd, talked boastfully, and enjoyed being at the center of the stage; suddenly, a voice came from behind: "Can we participate?"

"Of course…"

Halfway through his words, Yu Dazui felt the voice familiar.

Instinctively, he turned around to see Lu Liang looking at him with a cheerful gaze, from a height advantage of overlooking.

Nearby, Shen Hun, He Xiaopeng, and Zhu Jianming all retreated half a step without showing any expressions, a trace of imperceptible embarrassment on their faces.

Although most of them joined in the fun, they simply wanted to understand Huawei's next move.

But today, after all, is Tianxing Automobile's financing meeting; Lu Liang also helped them connect with international institutions.

In the end, they turned to crowd around Yu Dazui, only to be met by the main character; naturally, they felt somewhat embarrassed.

"Mr. Lu, is the E-round financing smooth?" Yu Dazui coughed lightly, deliberately changing the topic and creating some distance.

He extremely dislikes tall people because not only do they make him feel shorter, but he also has to look at them from a perspective of looking up, weakening his momentum by threefold.

"Thanks to President Yu, the financing is going quite smoothly; I suppose it will be over in a few more minutes." Lu Liang smiled lightly.

The speaker unintentionally revealed information, but the listener paid attention.

Li Bing was shocked, his mouth twitching; NIO obtained 200 million US dollars in financing, and he was already pleased.

If Lu Liang wasn't boasting, then 7.2 billion US dollars in financing within at most half an hour?

"Congratulations, Mr. Lu."

Yu Dazui cupped his hands in congratulations, secretly feeling shocked, for 7.2 billion US dollars is no small figure.

Although recently Tianxing Finance initiated a 300 billion US dollar ABS, saying ABS is essentially a loan; the principal not only needs repayment but also interest.

On the other hand, Tianxing Automobile's 7.2 billion US dollars is a genuine investment fund; investment has risks, which are two completely different concepts from savings.

Lu Liang waved his hand and curiously asked, "President Yu, can you help me understand, what is Hongmeng Intelligent Travel?"

Yu Dazui pondered for a moment, not concealing any longer.

He spoke frankly, "Huawei's newly established technical ecosystem alliance, promoting the development of automotive intelligent technology, creating excellent smart car products for users, providing an ultimate intelligent travel experience, bringing the digital world into every car…"

Lu Liang showed an understanding expression and smiled, asking, "Then can we, Tianxing Automobile, join?"

"Uh… If Mr. Lu is willing, of course."

Yu Dazui was taken aback, suddenly confused about what cunning plan Lu Liang was carrying.

After all, what he just mentioned was only the surface intent of Hongmeng Intelligent Travel; the deeper intent is to allow the new energy market to flourish.

In plain terms, it's to prevent Tianxing OS from becoming dominant, an inseparable existence like Android.

Now Lu Liang says Tianxing Automobile also wants to join Hongmeng Intelligent Travel; it feels like E Country wanting to join NATO, without any self-awareness.

Lu Liang smiled, just about to speak further when Xu Jiawei suddenly approached him and whispered something.

Lu Liang slightly nodded, saying to Yu Dazui, "President Yu, let's chat later; I have something to deal with."

"Alright, if you have something, Mr. Lu, go ahead."

Lu Liang came like a breeze and left in a hurry, leaving Yu Dazui in confusion.

However, with Lu Liang's departure, the originally harmonious small group no longer felt as relaxed.

The representatives of Lantu, Weima exchanged glances, said farewell and agreed to chat next time, then successively left.

Li Bing, Li Xiang, and He Xiaopeng also didn't want to stay, leaving to communicate with representatives of international institutions.

"What is Lu Liang's intention?"

Yu Dazui frowned, Zhu Jianming sighed, "Probably no intention, but purely because he knows of Hongmeng Intelligent Travel's existence, so everyone is cautious."

He looked towards Wen Chao's position on the left front.

Tianxing Finance holding over 200 billion US dollars is almost public knowledge.

Although Tianxing Finance is controlled by Wen Chao, Lu Liang standing behind enjoys absolute authority, which is an obvious fact.

If, because of the uncertain Hongmeng Intelligent Travel, relations with Lu Liang are worsened, it would be clearly a loss.

"His influence is significant, I know, but can't be just knowing, and it makes people scared, right?"

Yu Dazui frowned, thinking this explanation too far-fetched. Zhu Jianming retorted, "Then for what reason?"

Yu Dazui remained silent,

Trying to think of a more reasonable explanation.

Meanwhile, Lu Liang entered the neighboring reception room.

Two were seated, six standing, among them were tall-nosed white individuals and short-statured Neon people.

"Lu, long time no see." Seeing Lu Liang enter, the two conversing people stood up.

"Mr. Damon, Mr. Masamura, how have you been recently?"

Lu Liang smiled and shook hands with them.

Damon Marshall, investment department manager at Vanguard Group; they had crossed paths several times in New York.

Masamura Hongshu, Sun Zhengyi's secretary at Softbank Group; Lu Liang had seen him several times during meetings with Sun Zhengyi.

"Vanguard plans to invest 1 billion US dollars."

"Softbank Group plans to invest 800 million US dollars."

The two got straight to the point, stating their intentions.

They were interested in investing in Tianxing Automobile and were willing to accept the 48 billion US dollar valuation, but they had some questions that needed Lu Liang to personally help clarify.

"Gentlemen, feel free to ask." Lu Liang smiled.

The two exchanged glances, Damon asked, "We would like to know when will Tianxing Automobile go public? Or maybe asking should it ever go public in the future?"
