#369 - Chapter 369: Cousin? Spy! Four parties meet, a fat sheep to be slaughtered!
"Xiao Hao!"
Before Chen Hao could speak, Li Lan asked, "Does your university have an affiliated high school?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Chen Hao asked, puzzled.
Jiao Tong University Affiliated High School.
One of the top high schools in Shanghai.
"Can you pull some strings and get your cousin into that school?"
"Cousin?"
Chen Hao was completely confused: "Which cousin?"
His mother's siblings all had children, all of whom were cousins.
"Your cousin's name is Chu Yilan."
"Who?!"
He had never heard of her!
Not only in this life, but not in the previous one either.
"Your Aunt Yun's daughter—the daughter your third grandfather dotes on the most."
"Huh?!"
Chen Hao's eyes widened instantly.
"Don't be surprised!"
His mother began to choke up, recounting the things she had learned from her niece: "Xiao Yun was abducted back then and taken to a remote village in Gansu. She couldn't escape and couldn't…"
Chen Hao narrowed his eyes.
He really hadn't heard of the name Chu Yilan.
But!
He knew about Aunt Yun.
The key point.
In his previous life, news of Aunt Yun would arrive in a few years.
Aunt Yun was gone.
She had already passed away in the nineties.
She didn't leave behind even a single child!
Where did this daughter named Chu Yilan come from?
Bullshit!
Ice-coldness filled Chen Hao's face.
It seemed someone was already getting impatient, but he wasn't yet sure who sent the spy.
It didn't matter!
A spy's purpose was nothing more than to obtain information.
I'll give you information!
Thinking of this, Chen Hao's eyes became even more strange, but his tone was full of affection: "Mom, Aunt Yun is already gone, your cousin is our family—you tell her that the schooling is on me!"
"Mom, I have something to do, I'll hang up first."
"Okay, okay! Then… tomorrow, should I have your dad send your cousin over?"
"No need, I'll ask Sister Qingyan to help bring your cousin over—you still have business to do, no need to make a special trip."
He didn't want his parents to be too deeply involved in this spy business.
After a little calculation, he called his sister-in-law: "Sister, help me with a favor."
"I was just about to ask you for something!"
Xia Qingyan smiled wryly: "Toyota, Volkswagen, and General Motors have sent representatives to demand an explanation from me. I'm about to be annoyed to death!"
"I'll come over."
Chen Hao grinned.
After thinking about it, he called John again: "Mr. John, can you help me with a favor… No! Not 50 million!"
"The production capacity of Chuangshiji Factory is too low, I'm afraid outsourcing can't continue."
"Ha! Okay, see you in a bit."
Damn it!
He wants 50 million US dollars just to help?
Did my money come from thin air?
Fortunately!
I have your weakness!
…
Hanteng Group.
Reception room.
A group of people were either sitting or standing, their faces clearly unhappy.
Toyota Akio was about to go crazy.
Cruiser, 37 billion US dollars!
Hong, 16.8 billion US dollars!
After spending so much money, he discovered that they couldn't produce it, which was simply hateful.
That's right!
The representatives of the three major automakers had all come, and they had been grinding away since morning: At first, Xia Qingyan came over in person to argue and reason with them, but later she left them here, completely ignoring them.
They didn't leave either, just stubbornly stuck around.
They spent so much money but couldn't produce anything. Shouldn't there be an explanation?
With a creak, the door of the reception room was pushed open from the outside.
"You…"
Looking at this young man, Toyota Akio felt…
Familiar!
The next moment, he suddenly woke up: "It's you?!"
"Long time no see." Chen Hao grinned.
"You…"
"Let me introduce myself."
Chen Hao looked at the three representatives: "My name is Chen Hao, chairman of Hanteng Group, here to solve everyone's problems."
Fuck!
Toyota Akio had already figured it out.
When Shenzhou Motors was listed, he went to the Shanghai 4S store…
Damn it!
It was this bastard!
It was he who proposed betting on the performance of Shenzhou Motors, and then John appeared.
At this moment!
John came in with Chen Hao.
And!
At the auction a few days ago, John ran out again, desperately bidding against him.
Toyota Akio wasn't stupid.
How could he not guess?
In the 4S store, these two guys were acting together, forcing him to bet on the car's performance!
Losing 100 million US dollars was secondary.
The other party used him, the heir to Toyota Group, to complete the best promotion.
As for the auction…
John must have been a shill hired by Chen Hao!
Originally.
The starting price was 10 billion US dollars, and no one was competing at the time.
As a result?
John got involved, and the final transaction price was 16.8 billion US dollars, with Toyota Group spending 6.8 billion more—equivalent to tens of billions of Chinese yuan!
"You bastard!"
Toyota Akio was furious, pointing at Chen Hao and cursing.
"You dare scold me?!" John was furious.
"No… I'm scolding him…"
"You're clearly pointing at me!"
"I didn't…"
"Damn Jap!"
John looked angry: "We North Americans are the masters of this world, and Japan is just our slave, how dare you disrespect your master!"
The eyes of the Volkswagen and General Motors representatives became slightly complicated.
Originally.
The three parties had the same demands, and they were allies with Toyota.
But if you stand on the other side…
Who is John?
A direct member of the Morgan Consortium.
Volkswagen and General Motors are also European and American groups, and they are of the same race.
Japan?
A lackey!
"Alright, everyone."
Chen Hao looked at the three representatives: "What you bought is just car-making technology, right? The technical data has been given to you, but the special alloy materials used, as well as the high-precision machine tools… we also bought them."
"If I had that ability, I would have directly auctioned off the materials and machine tool technology as well."
"Handing Materials and China Heavy Industry are both Chinese central enterprises!"
"Can I go and rob them?"
As soon as he finished speaking, John nodded: "Chen is right! Demanding technology that others don't have is meaningless for you to waste your time!"
"But I spent so much money, and I can't produce anything with the technology…" Toyota Akio was very angry.
"Did you get the technical data?!" John roared.
"I got it…"
"If you can't produce it, it's because you're incompetent!"
"I…"
"Enough!"
The Volkswagen Group representative stood up.
He stared at Chen Hao and finally said: "At least… we need Mr. Chen to come forward and get a reasonable price."
"No problem!" Chen Hao said with a smile.
"When can we talk?"
"Anytime."
Chen Hao immediately took out his phone: "We have always used the products of these two companies. Given the cooperative relationship between the two parties, I am willing to act as a bridge—and the price will be the most favorable."
The three parties also understood that since Shenzhou Motors bought the new materials and machine tools.
It was impossible for them to get it no matter how much they protested.
Now, they can only ask for a reasonable price.
However…
Whether the price is reasonable or not is not up to Chen Hao to decide.
Little did they know that Chen Hao was secretly rejoicing.
Damn it!
My pig-slaughtering knife is already itching!
