 Chapter 3141: Becoming Bigger and Stronger

Seeing that Charlie didn't mind revealing his identity in front of his future wife and stepson, He Yuanjiang was relieved.

He had been open and honest all his life, and he loved Han Meiqing sincerely. He just wanted to spend the rest of his life with her, so he didn't want to think that every time he faced Charlie in front of his wife, he would treat him as the son-in-law of the Wilson family who knew a little Feng Shui and made friends with some local dignitaries with Feng Shui and Zhouyi.

He was not good at acting, and lying was even worse.

But if Charlie declined, he could completely understand and respect it, but he didn't expect Charlie to agree so readily.

At this time, He Yuanjiang didn't know that Charlie actually wanted to take all four of his newly formed family under his command.

With a relaxed and happy mood, he and Charlie came all the way to the hillside villa of Champs Elysees.

Grandpa's family had already prepared a banquet and were waiting. From the moment they saw Charlie's car going up the mountain, the three uncles, aunt and Li Yalin all went out to wait for him.

The old man and the old lady wanted to come out, but the temperature in Aurous Hill has dropped a lot in recent days, and the sky has darkened. The children were afraid that they would catch a cold, so they refused to let them go.

Before the car stopped, Charlie saw the five people waiting for him.

He was a little surprised and a little overwhelmed. After all, they were all elders, waiting for him here together. This scene was really too heavy in terms of etiquette.

But the An family didn't think it was heavy.

After all, Charlie saved the An family from danger twice. This kindness could not be compensated by seniority.

Not to mention Li Yalin.

If Charlie hadn't saved his life, his body full of bullet holes would probably have rotted in the American land where burials were practiced.

Charlie parked the car and got out with He Yuanjiang. His uncle took the lead and stepped forward, smiling and shouting, "Charlie!"

Charlie was busy addressing them one by one, "Uncle, second uncle, third uncle, aunt, Inspector Li."

After that, he quickly introduced He Yuanjiang beside him, "Let me introduce you five. This is my mother's schoolmate, Professor He Yuanjiang. Professor He used to work on Wall Street and later came to Aurous Hill to teach at Aurous Hill University of Finance and Economics." 

His second uncle An Kaifeng, who had always been in charge of external affairs at the An family, nodded immediately and said, "Professor He, I've heard of your name on Wall Street before. Everyone said, You are the most discerning Asian in Wall Street investment banks. I have heard a lot about your brilliant achievements!"

He Yuanjiang said seriously: "Mr. An is too polite. When it comes to investment vision, no one I know can be compared to An Chengxi. In front of her, I am just a primary school student."

After that, he felt that it was somewhat rude to mention the deceased An Chengxi in front of the An family, so he apologized and said: "I'm sorry." 

After saying sorry, He Yuanjiang didn't elaborate on the reason. The An family must understand this kind of thing, and he didn't need to explain it too clearly to cause secondary harm.

However, in the eyes of the An family, An Chengxi had been dead for 20 years after all, and their mentality had long accepted it calmly, so when He Yuanjiang mentioned her name, no one felt offended. After all, He Yuanjiang was also An Chengxi's schoolmate and good friend.

Charlie was going to introduce He Yuanjiang, so he said, "Uncle He, my second uncle is often in the limelight, you should know him, right?"

He Yuanjiang nodded, "Mr. An Kaifeng, of course I know him, I have long admired him!"

An Kaifeng said politely, "Professor He, you are too kind."

After that, the two shook hands politely.

Charlie introduced He Yuanjiang's eldest uncle, third uncle, and youngest aunt, and then Li Yalin.

Unexpectedly, when Charlie was about to introduce Li Yalin to He Yuanjiang, He Yuanjiang said first, "This must be Inspector Li, who is known as the pride of the Chinese! I have seen many of your interviews and reports, and I admire you very much!"

Li Yalin smiled modestly and said, "I'm just a detective, far from being the pride of the Chinese people. Your achievements and contributions are much greater than mine."

"No, no." He Yuanjiang said seriously, "It's not difficult for us Chinese, or even the entire Asian people, to make money in North America, but it's really not easy to get recognition from the whole society there. There are many overt and covert exclusions and discriminations, which only the Chinese in the United States know for so many years. You can get the recognition of mainstream Western society, which is really the pride of the Chinese people."

He Yuanjiang's words made several An family members agree deeply.

The United States is actually far from being as beautiful as their media describes.

Especially the social life of ethnic minorities in the United States will inevitably encounter many indescribable discriminations. The blacks and Koreans who stick together to fight to the death are better. Those who don't stick together much, and even like to pit their own people, can be said to be in dire straits and trapped inside and outside in that environment.

Charlie has not been to the United States many times since he was a child, and he doesn't know the environment there, but seeing the look of these people who agree with it, he knows that what He Yuanjiang said is true.

At this time, Charlie's grandmother couldn't help but open the door and said, "It's quite cold outside, why don't you come in quickly, don't let Charlie and the guests stand outside all the time."

Charlie smiled and called out, "Grandma!"

Grandma nodded, smiled and waved, "Come in, it's time for dinner."

"Hey!"

Charlie responded, and the few of them hurried into the villa.

The old man also came up and said to Charlie, "Charlie, have you been okay in Aurous Hill these days?"

Charlie smiled and said, "Very well, Aurous Hill is very safe."

Then, Charlie introduced He Yuanjiang to his grandparents.

Knowing that he was their eldest daughter's schoolmate and good friend, the two elders were naturally very enthusiastic. The family invited He Yuanjiang to sit at the dining table. The old man reminded his sons: "Professor He is your sister's classmate and friend. You must accompany him for a few drinks."

After that, he said to He Yuanjiang: "Professor He, if you can drink a lot, drink more. If you can't drink a lot, drink less. It's up to you. There are no rules for how to drink at the dinner table." 

Although He Yuanjiang seldom drinks, he has a good alcohol tolerance. He was happy to see the An family today, so he agreed without hesitation.

The old man asked Charlie again: "Charlie, why don't you drink a couple of cups too? If not, I'll ask your aunt to drive you back to the city later."

Charlie smiled and said, "No need, grandpa. We are all family members down the mountain. I'll ask Orval Hong to drive me."

The old man laughed and said, "That's great. If you drink, I'll drink a cup too!"

The old lady hurriedly said, "You're still drinking. Your brain is confused. Who has Alzheimer's disease? Have you forgotten?"

The old man smiled and said, "My eldest grandson is here. It's okay to drink a cup. What's more, Professor He is here too, so we have to drink two cups." 

The old lady rolled her eyes at him: "So you're adding more yourself?"

Charlie smiled and said, "Don't worry, grandma. Just let grandpa drink two cups. It's okay."

The old lady naturally knew that her precious grandson had given the old man a good elixir. The old man's body had long been healed, and it was no harm to drink some wine. So she didn't insist anymore, but reminded the old man, "Thanks to Charlie for speaking for you. You only need to drink two cups, but not more."

The old man immediately smiled and said, "Enough, enough, two glasses are enough!"

The eldest uncle at the side was the most considerate and quickly filled a glass. The old man immediately picked up the glass in a flash and said with a smile, "Here, the first glass of wine. Welcome Professor He to our home!"

Everyone raised their glasses.

After the dinner started and the first glass of wine was drunk, Charlie went straight to the point and asked, "Grandpa, uncle, second uncle, how is your investment in Eastcliff going this time?"

Grandpa smiled and said, "We have negotiated a few major projects and will soon be officially announced. Let your second uncle introduce you to the details."

An Kaifeng took over and said, "Didn't we decide to invest in a power battery-related company last time? This time in Eastcliff, it happened that Remi Automobile went public. An Internet company crossed over to build cars and sold more than a year's production capacity in one month after listing. It is really amazing and it really makes people look at domestic brands with new eyes, so we simply took over a new energy vehicle manufacturing company."

An Kaifeng talked to Charlie about the industrial layout of the An family, and he used "we" because the An family has reached a consensus that most of the future An family will be left to Charlie, so he is not only the grandson of the An family, but also the major shareholder of the An family.

Charlie didn't think about it in this way, he just felt very surprised.

When he came back from the United States last time, the An family only had plans to create a new energy vehicle brand, but he didn't expect that they would take over directly now?

Thinking of this, he hurriedly asked: "Second uncle, when you say take over, do you mean directly acquire a company?"

"Yes." An Kaifeng nodded and said: "There is a new energy vehicle company that has a big problem with its capital chain and is looking for financing everywhere. I discussed it with your uncle. The valuation is not high anyway, only a few billion US dollars, and now there is a debt crisis. The founding team shut down the production line and ran out to find money to save their lives. I happened to meet their CEO in Eastcliff, so I just had a chat and took over 3 billion US dollars."

Charlie nodded. 3 billion US dollars is indeed not a lot. It is like a drizzle to him, let alone to the An family.

At this time, He Yuanjiang on the side couldn't help asking: "The new energy vehicle company that Mr. An is talking about is Gao Heng, right?"

"Eh?" An Kaifeng asked in surprise, "Does Professor He know about this company?"

He Yuanjiang nodded and said, "I've heard a little bit about it. I heard a long time ago that they are in a debt crisis, and their sales have not been very good. In addition, the production lines were closed some time ago. I think they can only sell themselves to save their lives."

Charlie added at this time: "Uncle He has done a very deep study of the domestic new energy market. We had a brief chat last time. I really admire many of his views, especially his idea of ​​overtaking on a curve. I was very impressed. I originally wanted to arrange a meeting after Uncle He's wedding, but I can't wait. You guys came back, I arranged it as soon as you came."

An Kaifeng said: "Since Professor He knows so much about new energy, I really want to hear Professor He analyze the current new energy situation and give us some advice."

Then, An Kaifeng said: "To be honest, the An family rarely gets involved in manufacturing, but this time we invested in power batteries, vehicle manufacturing, domestic chip research and development, and commercial aerospace, which are basically manufacturing. We also hope to make some contributions to China's manufacturing industry to the best of our ability. If we can incubate good companies and get some economic returns, it would be even better; "

"But to be honest, if we really want to talk about how to operate a large plate like the manufacturing industry with thousands or tens of thousands of people, I am still confused, especially vehicle manufacturing. This Gaoheng is our wholly-owned acquisition. Next, after they have dealt with the debt and equity transfer issues, we will have to invest another sum of money to start production, but now I haven't thought about it yet. Should I keep the original team to continue operating for a while, or just get rid of them all and replace them with new ones? I wonder if Professor He has any good ideas?"

He Yuanjiang thought for a while and said, "I personally feel that Gao Heng's problem lies in its product positioning. The main products rely on constantly piling up materials to increase their value, but the sales volume is bound to not increase if the customer unit price is too high. In the field of high customer unit price, there is also competition from traditional luxury cars. As long as the product strength can't keep up, it will be difficult to open up the market;"

"And to be honest, their product design is not very mature. Once they trap themselves in the circle of niche aesthetics, they will inevitably further compress their living space;"

"But the Remi you mentioned just now is completely different. Their positioning is quite precise and fierce, and their product design is also impeccable. Putting aside the issue of whether there is reference, the appearance of their products does conform to the mainstream aesthetic;"

At this point, He Yuanjiang paused slightly, and then said, "So if you let me make a personal judgment, I tend to split Gao Heng's team into two, retain the production end first to ensure that the production line can run at any time, but the design end, marketing, and market end should be replaced as much as possible, and even the brand should be completely replaced. Although you bought Gao Heng, you can no longer use Gao Heng's brand, because the news of its bankruptcy was once a hot topic, and people knew that this brand was going to fail, the brand value has become negative, it is far better to start a new one. "

An Kaifeng asked again: "Then what do you think, if we rebuild a brand, how should the main product be positioned?"

He Yuanjiang said: "It must be to compete with the products with the highest sales and market share."

Then, He Yuanjiang said: "In order to reduce pressure and increase the success rate, many people like to start a business in vertical segments. They think that the competition in e-commerce platforms is too great, so they simply create a small mall or a small program, and choose segments such as maternal and child care, wine and beverages, and daily chemicals. But once you do this, you will never be able to make a big platform, and you may even have to survive under someone else's ecosystem for the rest of your life. The same is true for cars; "

"Almost every company that decides to build a car thinks that the competition for new energy cars around 200,000 yuan is the greatest. There is Tesla, a dominant player that sells hundreds of thousands of cars a year, and a lot of new domestic forces inside. Therefore, some companies are aiming at the sinking market of 20,000 to 30,000 and 350,000 yuan, while some companies are thinking about finding a way to enter the mid-to-high-end market of more than 500,000 to 600,000 yuan. However, as long as you hold this mentality, although you may succeed in the segmented field, you may never win a giant like Tesla; "

"Tesla's market value exceeded one trillion US dollars at its peak. Today, even though the concept of new energy has cooled down, its market value is still more than 500 billion US dollars. The market value of all domestic new forces combined is not as good as it. I am not worshiping foreign things or thinking how powerful Tesla is. I just think that although many companies always say that they are better than it at the press conference, they are still instinctively avoiding its edge. If someone else were to engage in new energy, I might also suggest that he do so, but the An family is different."

At this point, He Yuanjiang said very seriously: "The An family has strong capital strength, and Charlie and the Wade family's funds are far from comparable to domestic new energy vehicle companies. In addition, Charlie has Yisu Shipping in his hands, and the number and volume of ro-ro ships are among the best in the world. Now the An family has already laid out power batteries and acquired Gaoheng Automobile. In this case, why not integrate resources and truly make new energy bigger and stronger?"
