Chapter 784: Integrating Automobile Resources
One month after the red envelope incident.
Wang Fuzong came to the 95. Siheyuan again.
After seeing Yang Qing give away money lavishly in the Live Broadcast Room, he had wanted to come, but Surpass car sales kept falling and have now started to lose money.
Zhang Mingming said Yang Qing's advice was worth a hundred billion.
He had gotten it for free back then, but he did not accept it.
Now reality has proven him wrong.
Even Changcheng is catching up to joint venture cars, with annual sales of over a million units.
Especially pickup trucks, which have broken into Yingjiang.
Surpass sells fewer than two thousand units a year.
If no solution is found, Surpass will truly be forgotten.
The gatekeeper recognized Wang Fuzong and still had some impression of him, so he immediately contacted Yang Qing, who had someone lead him in.
He did not go out to greet him.
Old Man Yang still has a bit of a temper.
Wang Fuzong sensed Yang Lao's displeasure, so he was especially humble after entering.
"Yang Lao!"
He came to Yang Qing's side, saw him holding a white jade handle under the pavilion, and greeted him.
Yang Qing nodded and pointed to the seat beside him.
"Sit down, no need to be polite—this isn't your first time here."
Speaking in a sarcastic tone.
Like a child sulking.
Wang Fuzong had no choice but to endure it.
Asking someone for help is just this difficult.
After he sat down, Tianzhong brought out tea.
Seeing the tea, Wang Fuzong felt relieved and praised her.
"Thank you, sister-in-law. You're now a big name—everyone knows you, and you're one of only two people nationwide with over a million fans."
"I also registered an account and played for a month, but I don't even have fifty thousand fans."
(Wang Fuzong is a few years younger than Yang Fan.)
Tianzhong never joins in when Yang Qing discusses matters.
"President Wang, please be humble, have some tea."
"You have matters to discuss—talk first, I'll prepare some dishes, we'll eat at home at noon."
After saying that, she took her leave.
Wang Fuzong still tried to find a breakthrough with Tianzhong, but she gave him no chance at all.
Yang Qing glanced at him and lifted his tea as a signal.
"Help yourself."
Wang Fuzong quickly lifted his tea and took a sip.
After drinking the tea, Yang Qing then spoke.
"Talk about business if there is business; if not, I don't have time to chat idly with you."
Vice President Wang then spoke up about his purpose.
"Yang Lao, look at what you said last time."
Yang Qing glanced at him.
"Have you figured it out?"
Wang Fuzong nodded repeatedly.
"I have figured it out."
"How do you need me to help?"
Wang Fuzong laid out his difficulties.
"The difficulty of splitting the company is great; Surpass Automobile's income is less than its expenses, needing support from other divisions."
"Moreover, the automobile division is troublesome—there is supporting technology R&D, electric vehicle projects, automobile projects, hybrid projects, bus projects, passenger vehicle projects…"
"The supporting projects are also deeply entangled with Surpass Electronics."
"Surpass still has a Cloud Rail project…"
"All of these need investment; once split, everything will collapse."
Yang Qing fiddled with the handle in his hand.
"Cloud Rail?"
Yang Qing thought of that project that almost got them killed.
"Single track or double track?"
Wang Fuzong didn't expect Yang Qing to be interested in this.
"Single track."
"Single track?" Upon hearing this, Yang Qing shook his head.
"If it's single track, it can't carry too much capacity."
"And the construction cost is also high."
"Traffic problems seem difficult now, but these can be solved through technical means, such as intelligent traffic systems and integrated urban road network construction."
"Where cloud tracks are needed, there is a subway network; where they are not needed, cloud tracks are simply unnecessary."
"Double-track high-speed rail is still possible; single-track prospects are not great, unless decades later a technological breakthrough allows single track to handle huge passenger volumes."
"Later he spoke again with implied meaning."
"Moreover, you're stealing business."
"Wang Fuzong fell silent."
"Funds have already been invested; it's too late to say anything now."
"Yang Qing did not continue to criticize him."
"For them, surpassing is actually not that difficult; it's just that their automobile business is poor, while their buses, electronics, and OEM work are all done well."
"Yang Qing also wanted it to take a shorter route."
"Achieve the breakthrough sooner."
"Alright, that's your matter; let's talk about the split instead."
"I'll solve the funding problem; good food doesn't fear being late."
"There are also some industrial issues."
"For example, the automotive battery business also needs to operate independently; Changcheng and LeEco are both pushing toward electric vehicles."
"If you don't cooperate with them, they will cooperate with others."
"There is also some industrial integration."
"Changcheng's engine and transmission technologies are excellent; you can take some electric vehicle technology and exchange it with them technologically."
"Only through strong alliances can we go further."
"Also, LeEco's technology might not be up to par, but Lao Jia's imagination is absolutely stronger than yours, especially in appearance; surpassing the current level is difficult largely because the appearance wasn't done well."
"Later he took out a tablet and opened a picture."
"This is a car designed by Lao Jia."
"Is it beautiful or not?"
"Moreover, he integrated the HarmonyOS into the car, and this LeEco car has strong interactive capabilities."
"Phone, facial recognition plus fingerprint and voiceprint unlock, plus automatic storage, remote preheating……"
"You three: one has an advantage in traditional technology, one in the electric vehicle field, and one in imagination."
"Combining your three advantages, you will soon astonish the world."
"What do you think of what I said?"
"Wang Fuzong almost became foolish."
"He currently has no idea of the value of his electric vehicle technology; if he knew the future belonged to electric vehicles, he would definitely not agree."
"But now Changcheng is a million‑level automobile company, LeEco is Yang Family's wholly owned subsidiary, funds are sufficient, and with Yang Family's technical backing behind it, its development speed is astonishing."
"Otherwise, how could LeEco perfect the HarmonyOS system?"
"That is still a first‑generation product."
"It is not relying on Yang Family's huge advantage in the IC and IT industries."
"In his view, he is not at a loss; on the contrary, he is quite favored."
"Simply put, if Yang Family invests again, Yang Family will truly become the master of Chao Yue."
"With the current 20% plus the forthcoming investment, Yang Family may end up with more than 30% of Chao Yue's shares."
"If it weren't for Yang Family's habit of not interfering in management, he would really have no chance of agreeing."
"Yang Lao, I believe what you said; the other two companies will trouble you, Yang Lao."
"Yang Qing showed a smile."
"Then I'll have them come over, and you can talk."
"Old Wei and Old Jia received Yang Qing's call, postponed their affairs, and by evening arrived at Courtyard 95."
"Upon seeing Wang Fuzong, they were startled, then thought of something."
"Yang Qing quickly explained the matter to them, then tossed them the space and let them discuss."
"As for what they ended up agreeing on, Yang Qing didn't care; he gave them the opportunity, and if they failed to make use of it, Yang Qing wouldn't bother with them."
"Tian Zhong left in the afternoon to avoid suspicion."
"He was quite self‑conscious."
