Chapter 257: Chapter 257: My Father-in-law’s Exceptional Insight_1
Actually, Penguin could have had a large slice of the cake, directly acquiring thirty percent of the shares.
It was because of Li Xin, this fool, that they missed the opportunity.
Now, it was no longer possible to hope for thirty percent. As long as they could get the same investment ratio as Dongyan Investment and Qianda Investment, it would be enough.
In this way, once the development of new energy vehicles picked up, they wouldn’t fall too far behind these giants.
"Mr. Ma, about this..." Wang Ya was somewhat troubled. With Ma Huateng asking for shares in such a low profile, and even offering a premium, it was difficult for him to refuse. After thinking it over, he said, "Alright, Mr. Ma, both Dongyan Investment and Qianda Investment hold a 7.5% share, investing 1.5 billion each. I’ll offer the same shares if you give 1.7 billion."
In the end, Wang Ya still gave face to Ma Huateng, offering another 7.5% of the shares.
"No problem, thank you very much. I will have Penguin’s new General Manager of Investments contact you right away," Ma Huateng expressed his gratitude.
After hanging up the phone, Ma Huateng immediately contacted the new General Manager of Penguin Investments, Song Peng, and gave him instructions to contact Wang Ya to discuss the signing of the contract.
Since they were both in Shen City, within an hour, Song Peng arrived at Yadi Motors and signed the contract with Wang Ya.
Shen Dong and the others had not yet left; they also witnessed the signing of the contract.
Shen Dong had not expected such an outcome either.
In the end, Ma Huateng still entered the new energy vehicle market.
However, both Qianda and Ali had also entered the market. Penguin didn’t own too many shares; hence it didn’t disturb the overall balance.
For Penguin to widen the gap with Qianda and Ali, it was no longer very likely.
In the evening, Wang Ya and his executives treated Shen Dong and his party to dinner at a high-end restaurant, with Song Peng also attending.
During the meal, Song Peng came over to toast Shen Dong.
"I’ve long admired Mr. Shen’s reputation. Please, look after us in the future. Mr. Ma has said that if there’s any project you are willing to share, we would like to participate," Song Peng said.
"Mr. Ma is too kind. If there’s an opportunity, we’ll cooperate," Shen Dong clinked glasses with the other party.
It was better to be friends with Penguin than adversaries.
After all, Penguin Group was a giant, a super capital.
No one wished to make an enemy of such a conglomerate.
Earning money together was the norm in healthy business ecosystems.
After dinner, Shen Dong and his group returned to the hotel.
Once back in his own room, Shen Dong took a bath and then lay on the bed to video chat with Chen Yuyan.
"Honey, have you sorted everything out? When will you come back?" Chen Yuyan in the video looked at Shen Dong, her eyes filled with longing.
"All settled, I will be back tomorrow morning," Shen Dong smiled.
"I’ll pick you up at the airport," Chen Yuyan said happily.
"Sure," Shen Dong had no objections.
"By the way, honey, Yuting has contacted me," said Chen Yuyan.
"So she contacted, that’s it. You two are sisters; it’s very normal to get in touch from time to time, isn’t it?" Shen Dong wasn’t much concerned about this matter.
To him, Chen Yuting was in the past.
He had a proper mindset; Chen Yuting was his sister-in-law.
"She said she no longer lives with Feng Lijuan. They have separated, and she has clarified what she needs, and from now on she just wants to live well. She won’t listen to Feng Lijuan anymore, won’t disturb us again, and wishes us happiness," Chen Yuyan conveyed.
"If she can think this way, it’s good for her," Shen Dong said.
"I think so too. Actually, looking back now, Yuting is quite pitiable. She was poisoned by that woman, Feng Lijuan. It’s a good thing for her to separate from Feng Lijuan. After all, she is my sister. As long as she doesn’t behave like before, I still hope she can find her own happiness," said Chen Yuyan.
"In that case, we can only wish her well," Shen Dong said.
The two chatted for a while longer before ending the call.
The next day, Shen Dong took a flight back to Hai City.
As soon as he stepped out of the arrival gate, Chen Yuyan, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately threw herself into Shen Dong’s arms.
"Husband, I’ve missed you so much," Chen Yuyan said, hugging Shen Dong, full of yearning.
"I’ve missed you too." Shen Dong and Chen Yuyan embraced for a while before leaving the airport to go home.
Once home, the two of them got entangled with each other.
An hour later, Shen Dong finally got up from the ground on the balcony, holding Chen Yuyan, and entered the bathroom.
After freshening up, the couple went out for lunch.
While they were eating lunch, Chen Yuyan’s phone started to ring.
Upon seeing the caller ID, Chen Yuyan said, "It’s a call from Dad."
Then she answered the phone: "Dad."
Chen Yuanxiang said, "You mentioned that Xiaodong was coming back from Shen City today, has he arrived?"
Chen Yuyan nodded and said, "He’s back, and we are having lunch together."
Chen Yuanxiang said, "Come to our house for dinner tonight, Yuting mentioned she would come over for a gathering."
Chen Yuyan said, "Okay, we’ll come over early, and I’ll cook with Mrs. Lin."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Yuyan explained the situation.
Shen Dong said, "It seems like Chen Yuting wants to improve her relationship with you all, hopefully, it’s a good start."
Chen Yuyan nodded and said, "That would be for the best, as long as that woman Feng Lijuan doesn’t show up everything will be fine."
After lunch, the couple went home to rest.
Around four o’clock, Shen Dong, driving his car, took Chen Yuyan to Chen Yuanxiang’s house.
Upon arrival, Chen Yuting was not there yet.
Lin Shulei was already busy in the kitchen, and Chen Yuyan immediately went in to help.
Meanwhile, Shen Dong was having tea and chatting with his father-in-law in the living room.
"Dad, how has work been lately? Not too busy, I hope? If the workload is too much, just tell me, and I’ll find someone to share your tasks," Shen Dong said, concerned not to overburden his father-in-law.
He wanted his father-in-law to do this job, but he did not want to exhaust him.
"It’s been okay, the workload is as it is, nothing too heavy. Holding this position, there’s only so much to be busy with," Chen Yuanxiang replied, appreciating Shen Dong’s concern.
"That’s good. The stores in the second-tier cities are about to open, right?" asked Shen Dong, nodding.
"Yes, the stores are nearly renovated, and when they open, it’s going to be quite the boom," Chen Yuanxiang replied.
"I didn’t invite you over today just because Chen Yuting will be here; I also wanted us to spend some time together. The stores in the second-tier cities are about to launch, and I have to visit these cities, which means I might be away on business trips for ten days to half a month," Chen Yuanxiang said, smiling.
"Dad, thank you for your hard work," said Shen Dong.
"Why mention it? Isn’t this normal work?" Chen Yuanxiang waved his hand dismissively and immediately asked, "What have you been busy with recently? I heard from Yuyan that you went to Shen City and invested in an automotive company?"
"Yes." Shen Dong nodded and explained the investment in Yadi Motors.
"New energy vehicles is a good sector indeed. In the fuel car market, our country has already lost the advantage of being early entrants, and we basically have no chance to surpass Western countries. Only by taking a different approach do we stand a chance to overtake, and new energy vehicles are one way to do that," Chen Yuanxiang said, displaying a deep understanding that isn’t common among ordinary people.
"That’s what I was thinking, too, so I pulled together a few investors and we invested. If it develops well in the future, we’re definitely going to see a nice return," Shen Dong said, admiring his father-in-law’s insight.
Without his system, he would have had but a parroted understanding of the new energy vehicle market.
For his father-in-law to be able to see through this layer, his vision certainly surpassed that of most investors in the market.
