"what time is it?"

The next morning, Li Zehua removed the heavy burden from his body and patted his hands in anger, feeling the beauty of youth. "After all, I was delayed by alcohol and sex. From today on, I will quit drinking!"

Then he found the ringing cell phone and answered it.

Liu Qiangdong's cheerful voice came, "Old Li, let's have a drink together at noon. Several investor friends are here, and there's also a guy who claims to be able to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk. Come and save the situation quickly."

"Don't go."

"I've sent you the address. See you at noon."

Having said that, Liu Qiangdong hung up the phone.

Li Zehua slapped his forehead and thought, his plan to quit drinking failed before it even started. He looked at the time and it was past nine o'clock. He opened the WeChat management group to check the messages, but there was nothing particularly noteworthy.

However, Lin Wenhui left a message saying that he met with the leaders of the China Banking Regulatory Commission and the Central Bank in the morning and tried to have another talk, if possible, to curb the unlimited expansion of financial means such as the reserve ratio and secondary mortgage.

It truly benefits the present and future generations!

At the very least, it can preserve the wealth accumulated by more than half of the country's population over the past 30 years.

If that doesn't work, Li Zehua doesn't plan to continue to resist, because personal strength is limited after all. When everyone wants to eat meat, he doesn't want to pick up a knife, and he never wants to stand with cattle and sheep.

At most, I can earn less money and try to use more favorable discounts to attract more deposited funds for micropayments, so as to prevent too many people from having their assets emptied out in the new round of flooding.

After thinking it over, he simply covered himself with the quilt and continued to talk nonsense, "It has a headache. Forget it. I have no chance to take power when I wake up, but I can still sleep on the lap of a beautiful woman. I must not waste this beautiful moment."

Poor bed, it was noisy until 4 or 5 in the morning last night. I finally managed to quiet it down, but now I have to bear the pressure of one more person. If I knew it would be better if it rotted in the factory...

When doing business, making less than a million dollars depends on your personal efforts and destiny.

It's more than tens of millions, depending on how the policy decisions are made. Those who go against the trend will not have a good outcome in the end. Only by going with the trend can you go further.

The use and supervision of funds deposited by Internet third-party payments has always been a major problem, especially as micropayments have been a huge success in Southeast Asia, with the interests of countless people involved.

Even though there are many people in the country who follow Qingyun and hold a portion of the shares, the CBRC's stated reason is that it is also worried that excessive control will lead to external pressure and accountability.

Especially when it comes to the overseas export of RMB, it is almost impossible to succeed at the public level under the current environment. However, there is a glimmer of hope by slowly laying out in Southeast Asia.

Where do the resources come from to buy off local core interest groups?

Why wouldn't those competitors who are eyeing the opportunity take advantage of the situation to cause trouble?
It all comes down to interests. There is nothing better than seizing local resources, satisfying the needs of local capital groups willing to cooperate, and establishing a broader alliance of interests.

Therefore, the bigger the noise Qingyun makes in Southeast Asia, the better, and the more funds it raises, the better. However, who will take the blame for the aftermath is a question.

It also depends on whether WeChat Technology can reach that step. If it can gain a sufficient user base before the capital bubble bursts, it may be able to successfully shift the blame through the manipulation of public opinion.

Then bring out some scapegoats of sufficient weight (whoever has the right to speak will be the enemy and will take the blame, regardless of whether he is right or wrong), kill them and eat their meat, then give a sip of soup to the executors below, and this will naturally calm public anger.

As for the truth?

The most worthless thing in the world is the truth. The strong are not even willing to use it to wipe their butts, and the weak only use it as a spiritual sustenance to comfort themselves.

If WeChat Technology fails to gain a foothold, but develops millions of employees through food delivery, express delivery, and online car-hailing businesses, that’s fine, because quantity can sometimes be transformed into quality.

The rules of the game outside are different. With votes in hand and the power to influence and manipulate the rules of the game, it should be no problem to protect yourself. After all, without the approval of Tokyo University.

It is not easy for the nearby Southeast Asian countries to blatantly divide up Qingyun's business, not to mention that Li Zehua himself is not made of clay.

In the Qingyun system, there are hundreds of thousands of recovery personnel. God knows whether they are working for wages, or will they change their clothes one day and transform themselves into a demolition team?

As for the worst outcome, it is purely because Qingyun itself is not up to the standard, cannot control public opinion, and its business development has stagnated. It deserves to be pushed out to take the blame.

Killing Qingyun's family will calm public anger, and I believe everyone will be happy to accept it. Dongda will not object to a company that cannot expand its living space and has to snatch existing resources.

What's the point?

No matter how big the scale is or how much revenue there is, can it be compared to a state-owned enterprise or a central enterprise that forcibly integrates the resources of several major industries with a piece of official document?

The key lies in whether the external resource input channel is reliable, whether it is not threatened, and whether it has a dominant position.

Minerals, energy, food, high-tech, and sales markets all count. The source of the problem cannot become a bargaining chip for others to restrict Dongda, such as Australia's iron ore and Samba's food.

Even Russia’s oil, natural gas, diamonds and trees, who doesn’t like it?

Can transportation channels be guaranteed to be unobstructed in wartime?
During the transaction process, who has the final say and who holds the pricing power? Will it be used as a handle to blackmail others?
This is the crux of the matter.

Tokyo University chose East Asia as its first choice and proposed 5 trillion for free trade integration among the three countries and free convertibility of monetary funds. However, it was slapped in the face by the United States, and the two so-called buddies who had made promises with their chests turned against each other in an instant.

Qingyun's methods are much more moderate, and on the surface they are limited to economic cooperation. They can also reserve a large portion for traditional American capital, and thus receive much less hostility.

In order to prevent excessive stimulation of Dongda, the Odobai Yamen, controlled by Zaitai Capital, could not openly obstruct again, otherwise its allies would turn against it.

Oh, you don’t allow economic and trade integration and mutual support, refer to the North American Free Trade Agreement (we can do it, but others can’t), and the pound crisis caused by the Commonwealth’s economic and trade integration.

America's ambitions are clearly revealed, from the European debt crisis targeting Europe, to the 10 financial crisis targeting East Asia, and the recent -year trilateral free trade agreement.

It will never allow the emergence of an alliance in the world that can compete with it, even if it is a country like the Chicken in the Foot Basin that can threaten it in the fields of science and technology or finance.

We are not as strong as others, so we just have to endure it for the time being.

However, the United States also has to manage normal economic and trade exchanges, international trade and investment denominated in US dollars, and before the so-called return to the Asia-Pacific, its strength in the region is not enough to completely suppress all opponents.

Who would listen to it? Even if Squid Capital wants to take action as tough as ever, it has to consider whether it can suppress Ou Meng and the Eastern World at the same time.

Its unrivaled large army is still trapped in the deserts of West Asia and the mountains of Central Asia. This is related to the control of global energy and flour hegemony by Squid Capital.

(With a sideways smile, in the mountains of Central Asia, before the mold entered, the local flour production was only a few hundred tons. As a result, in the more than ten years since the mold entered, the actual production has increased to tens of thousands of tons.)

It couldn't get away for the moment.

The European currency debt crisis, which began to unfold in 93, is now reaching its most critical moment. Germany and France are still resisting and trying their best to pull Europe out of the abyss.

Dai Ying, who was bought by Squid Capital, did not hesitate to mobilize the entire nation and threatened every day to vote out the big family in order to get the promised global secondary market financial hegemony (half of which was reimbursed by cryptocurrencies).

Dai Ying, who hoped to continue living a good life by collecting commissions from laundering black rice and secondary market transaction taxes, had no idea that its withdrawal from Oumeng meant the complete fall of the overlord of the old era.

The European debt crisis has intensified and is not far from being completely out of control. Affected by this and the emergence of Qingyun, a major variable chess piece, the international gold price has reached US$1700 per ounce.

Compared with the historical high of more than 11 US dollars at the end of 1900, no one dares to make a prediction on how much gold can rise in this life.

The price of gold is the barometer of the world economy. The complex situation, possible variables, and the economic support from Southeast Asia, Russia and the European Union can delay the arrival of disaster.

Squid Capital has not yet reached the stage where it will be invincible in ten years’ time, without the support of mobile Internet in information collection, spiritual influence and data processing.

Its control over finance and public opinion is still facing competition from many forces, especially Qingyun, which is able to use its WeChat technology to impact public opinion and its micro-payments to impact finance.

It also wooed Nokia, Huaban, and ZTE to temporarily stabilize Qualcomm and complete its layout in the telecommunications field. It also tried to fundamentally cut off the possibility of Squid Capital getting involved in smartphone manufacturing and mobile phone operating systems.

Too many people have been blinded by short-term interests. Even Wall Street could not unite and fight back in the first place. Even Goldman Sachs has not yet achieved ideological unity, let alone traditional American capital trying to take advantage of the situation.

Yutai Capital can only settle for the next best thing and talk about the emerging Internet finance, especially the Qingyun model. As a multinational company of Dongda, it conducts Internet finance business in Southeast Asia. If it absorbs hundreds of billions of dollars of funds, it will be illegal in its own country and must be strictly controlled. If the news gets out, it will be a big joke. Is Qingyun playing two-faced and running a business that is banned in Dongda to Southeast Asia to harm consumers?
Complete restriction means that there is a special transfer of interests between the two, and Qingyun is the latter's white glove, the executioner who goes south to reap the wealth of the lower class.

No restrictions at all?
That's even better. After Qingyun completes its harvest in the Southeast Asian financial market, Yutai Capital can use its even greater financial control to squeeze in and take the biggest piece of the pie.

In the end, all the dirty water is thrown on Qingyun, creating a "happy" situation where Yu Tai gets to eat the meat and Qingyun suffers.

By copying this financial model, they can also set off an Internet finance carnival within the University of Tokyo. The meat here is much fatter than in Southeast Asia.

During Lin Wenhui's negotiations with the CBRC, he heard similar words many times. The other party always looked like they were doing it for his own good, but it was difficult for him to refute them face to face.

In fact, many people understand this, but no one points it out.

Perhaps they don't want to offend anyone, or they are simply preparing to take advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and make a fortune. We are all smart people, and if you don't work for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth.

Therefore, in the eyes of everyone, the Qingyun Group, which took advantage of others and wanted to destroy the bridge after crossing it, and purely harmed others without benefiting itself, became a conspicuous outlier.

As for the decision-making level, governing a big country is like cooking a small fish. Any policy that is introduced must be carefully considered and the lesser of two evils must be chosen. Until the day the mystery is revealed, no one knows whether it is right or wrong.

People at that time could only make the most appropriate decision based on the current environment.

After all, not everyone can travel back from the future and see the results in advance.

……

"The wealthy people from the north are not as straightforward as those from the west. They are stingy with their money and have a lot of conditions."

After drinking three catties of liquor at noon, Li Zehua acted as if nothing had happened. While several guests from Big Cat were staggering, he approached Zhang Lei and asked, "I don't care about JD.com's third round of financing.

Anyway, you are the one who found the person, so you have to be responsible to the end.

In addition, you can’t continue to delay the matter of Tenda and WeChat Technology. You have to make a choice.”

Zhang Lei gave Liu Qiangdong a look for help, but the latter pretended not to see it. He had drunk a little too much, but he was not stupid.

For JD.com right now, all kinds of resources within the Qingyun system are open to supply at any time. Only a fool would choose to betray Qingyun and help an investor, even if the latter tries his best to find money for him.

Xu Xin was the only lady drinking juice present. She was not as interested in financing and taking sides as she was in discussing with Lin Qingyi what skin care products to use.

Zhang Lei had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Director Li, please don't embarrass me.

I admit that WeChat technology is far ahead in the mobile sector, and the Qingyun industry ecosystem you mentioned is playing a huge role, but there is one thing you can never deny.

That is, Chaozhou Porridge is willing to share the power of public opinion with us, while you seem to be planning to take a completely different path. "

"What's the difference? They're both funds, both capital, but old money smells good, while my new money stinks?"

Li Zehua did not give him time to think. "If I remember correctly, there are a lot of traditional white people behind the Yale system. They are not on the same path as them. Old cars have many problems. Be careful not to break down!"

Zhang Lei smiled bitterly, "But it's a new car with new technology, who knows if it's been run-in enough? And you're a well-known speedster, if something goes wrong, being shaken off the car is no big deal.

What if I really risk my life?"

"With Dongda Insurance backing it up, what are you afraid of?"

Zhang Lei was unmoved. "It is because they are all so new and have been so popular that people can only see the surface and don't know the real situation, so they dare not place a bet easily."

Li Zehua has many hidden cards to play, but it is not appropriate to expose them now. "If you miss this opportunity, you will miss this opportunity."

"Don't worry, our boss is also a respectable person. No matter who wins or loses, he will have a share in the end."

Zhang Lei finally told the truth, "If Director Li has the time to force me here, he might as well defeat Tengda as soon as possible.

As for the Yale School, they will not take action. They are like the ancient noble families that have been passed down for thousands of years. They do not need to take sides or express their opinions. They just need to take action before the outcome is decided.

Whoever stands on the side that best represents their interests will be the ultimate winner.

As long as you don't take sides in advance, you will never offend anyone."

Li Zehua asked in return: "It is easy to add flowers to a beautiful woman, but it is difficult to help people in need. The ancients never lied to me, but with the wave of mobile Internet, development is changing with each passing day. Do you really think you can sit back and relax?"

In the original time and space, we can only say that everyone has underestimated the impact of mobile Internet technology on ordinary people and society as a whole.

Before this, capital still has to rely on strongmen and local powerful groups to provide it with protection, and the two complement each other and go hand in hand.

But as mobile phones take control of our lives, a small chip controls production, and big data analysis and processing capabilities are strengthened to an unprecedented level, the advantages of capital are infinitely magnified.

As long as it wants, it can convey various values ​​to the world anytime and anywhere, rely on continuous compliance tests to distort public aesthetics, select suitable carriers, and utilize the display function of the media.

They only choose to convey the aspects that are beneficial to them to the public, and use the voices of a few people to influence the will of more people, so as to achieve ulterior motives.

When the sound of money rang out, all other sounds came to an abrupt end. By then, it was too late for the parties to react and resist. They could only be defeated one by one and become vassals of Squid Capital.

No matter how smart Zhang Lei is, he is still restricted by the current environment and cannot escape the limitations of the chessboard.

So his answer was doomed from the beginning, "Gao Ling Capital needs time to make a final judgment. As I said before, it will sell off Tengda shares on a large scale in the short term.

It will cause a lot of capital loss, and Qingyun is unwilling to make up for the loss in shares, and is even more unwilling to open up the special rights of WeChat Technology to us, so I can’t give a definite answer. ”

"Forget it, it's up to you. You will regret it one day in the future."

Li Zehua gave up the idea of ​​continuing to persuade him. Fortunately, Zhang Lei would not abandon his interests in Qingyun, so he said, "In fact, the winner is about to be decided.

If Tenda allows you to divide QQ's influence in the college student market, relying on its special empowerment in means of production, WeChat will become the largest instant messaging software service provider on mobile terminals.

It will only take a year or two. When you succeed, I will definitely be the first to attend WeChat’s celebration banquet.”

"Fuck, we've already succeeded, why do we need you here?"

Li Zehua was quite envious of these big forces. Look, they could make money without doing anything by relying on their powerful strength. They had to give in. As long as human society existed, they would exist forever.

It is a pity that there will never be another salt smuggler who fails the imperial examination. Ashes return to ashes, and the son of a mouse is only fit to be a pile of dirt in the future.

“Wouldn’t it be less delicious if there was no one to share the wine of joy?”

After Zhang Lei received a clear reply from the Yale system, he became much more energetic and acted neither humble nor arrogant when facing Li Zehua, such as during the negotiations with the Big Cat investors.

He tried his best to create obstacles for Qingyun in order to get more resources out of Li Zehua.

Unfortunately, after being introduced by Liu Qiangdong, the big cat investor understood who the real decisive figure was and accepted all of Qingyun’s requests and proposals.

They have plenty of resources, but they lack suitable channels to monetize them.

If possible, they are even willing to pay a high premium to buy shares of Qingyun Investment Industrial Fund.

"When the next round of investment window opens, we will notify you in advance."

Facing the big cat investor who was drunk and whose face turned red and who was still trying to get a share of the investment, Li Zehua kept smiling~ (End of this chapter)
