Chapter 858: Japan’s Frustrations

Therefore, all the famous car manufacturers started contacting Jiadian Group immediately. They wanted to buy their technology and customized batteries. If all else failed, they could cooperate with Xiao Peng Automobile and develop a series of models as well!

No one wanted to fall behind other people in this industry.

Because, if you fall behind, it could mean the destruction of the world’s top 500 companies…

Nokia was defeated because they failed to keep up with the changes in the industry.

Amongst them, four of Japan’s car manufacturers were Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Mitsubishi, who were the most obvious ones.

Previously, Su Yang was the one who took the initiative to talk to them about the automobile industry in Japan. However, their attitude was neither cold nor warm. They even thought that Chinese companies did not have any core competitiveness and relied on support to make a living. Hence, they looked down on Su Yang.

But now, it was their turn to beg Su Yang.

Therefore, in just one afternoon, Su Yang received invitations from the directors and presidents of the four automobile companies, hoping to have a meal with Su Yang and have a good chat.

Of course, Su Yang followed his original plan without hesitation…

He stood them all up.

The main reason why Su Yang’s plan was to stand them up and not use this opportunity to form a partnership with them was because Su Yang had explained to Jia Xiaoqian that if he took the initiative to cooperate, it would be too easy for others to notice something fishy.

This was especially so after the other party had ignored him for half a month. With his age and status, there was obviously something wrong with him continuing to work with the other party after the tables had turned.

After all, Su Yang was not their father, so he would not spoil them for no reason.

Therefore, the best way to avoid suspicion was to ignore them and have them come and beg for his cooperation.

Zhao Licheng had already predicted this when he came up with the plan.

Hence, the moment Su Yang entered Japan, there was already a huge pit waiting for the Japanese companies to jump into.

Furthermore, this was an open conspiracy, the kind that could not be avoided.

Su Yang had the most crucial technology in the future of the automobile industry. If they chose to cooperate, they would have to wait for their deaths.

So for the next few days, Jia Xiaoqian was in the limelight…

As Su Yang’s assistant, Su Yang handed all the tasks to her, which even Pan Zhaodi, his secretary, had never dealt with such external affairs.

He also told her that she did not need to be afraid of trouble. Now, the other party was begging him and would do whatever he wanted. So, Jia Xiaoqian could do whatever she wanted, even be as arrogant as she wanted. He told her to release the anger they had pented up over the past half a month.

Although she did not understand why Su Yang would be so indulgent to his assistant, Jia Xiaoqian could feel the warmth in her heart. Hence, she fulfilled Su Yang’s request and… Behaved arrogantly.

Of course, for Su Yang’s sake, she might be arrogant, but she wasn’t that domineering. She was merely mocking her opponents.

For example, when the president’s secretary of Honda Automobile called, she formally said that Su Yang wasn’t in Japan during this period of time. As for where he was, she wasn’t sure and told him to wait for a period of time before calling. Of course, even if he called again, he probably wouldn’t be around…

Another example, when the director of Nissan Automobile called, after she officially rejected the offer, she whispered in Japanese. It was a voice that was obviously a whisper, but it was heard by the other party. “Who did you say didn’t understand Japanese? Didn’t you say that Chinese companies have no core competitiveness?”

She had done the same thing for the other two companies, the kind that would make people grit their teeth in anger, but they would not suffer any real damage or humiliation.

Half a month ago, these Japanese companies had their arrogance flying through the roof, but they did not dare act up after being ridiculed by her. Jia Xiaoqian was over the moon!

She was from China, which had a vast amount of land and resources with 5,000 years of history. Yet, her country was looked down upon by such a small country! ‘Hmph! Let’s see who’s looking down on whom now!’

Meanwhile, the executives who had been ridiculed by Jia Xiaoqian were furious. They had connections with each other, so they were secretly discussing what to do about this matter.

“Did you call Su-kun today?”

“Yes, but his assistant stopped me.”

“F*ck! Me too!”

“That assistant is so annoying! She has no manners at all!”

“Agreed! If she’s from Japan, I’ll let her know what it means to show respect!”

“This isn’t the key to the problem, is it? The key is that Su-kun now has the core technology of all the automobile companies in the world. We have to get it as soon as possible. If we can’t get it, our competitiveness will drop very quickly.”

“But that assistant keeps stopping us! We can’t see Su-kun at all!”

Just then, someone said, “Why don’t… We send someone to give that assistant some gifts? See if we can get an exception to let us meet Su-kun?”

The chat group fell silent.

The other senior executives chatted privately for a while and created another chat group. They decided not to play with this idiot anymore. ‘This idiot is so naive to think that without Su-kun’s permission, a mere assistant would dare to stop us? That naive fool!’

In the second chat group, the executives were also talking to each other.

“Let’s not bring Mitsui-san with us, we’ll continue this amongst ourselves.”

“When this involves the survival of our national pillar industry, I hope everyone can put down their prejudices and work hard together to get this core technology.

“Agreed.”

“Agreed.”

“Agreed.”

“Actually, I feel that the reason why Su-kun is ignoring us now is because that assistant said that she was angry because we gave her the cold shoulder.”

“In my opinion, he is acting on impulse. If he is really a qualified business manager, he should not be influenced by such emotions.”

Someone reminded the group by saying, “Let’s not forget that Su-kun isn’t even 20 years old yet.”

The group fell silent again.

That’s right. Su Yang was not even twenty years old. He was a world-class tycoon who was not even twenty years old. At that age, with his status, he would not be able to do anything out of line. That was because there was nothing that could make him worry anymore.

After a while, someone said, “Actually, I feel that Su-kun still wants to work with us.”

“What do you mean?”

“Think about it. During this half a month, has Su-kun been actively talking to us about developing the Japanese market?”

“Yes.”

“Yes.”

“We did not care before, so we did not notice anything strange. But now that I think about it, he came to negotiate with us with sincerity. In other words, he wanted to cooperate with us.”

“After all, our country has world-class automobile companies.”

“Because of our arrogance, he returned to his country in a fit of anger and found another automobile company from his country to work with.

“But think about it, what kind of automobile companies is he working with right now? Xiao Niao? Future?”

Someone corrected him, “It’s Xiao Peng and Future.”

“That’s right. Xiao Peng and Future, businesses that we’ve never heard of. This means that he chose it at the last minute, and the person he actually wanted to work with was us!”

When he said that, the senior executives recalled the details of the past two weeks. The more they recalled, the more they felt that this person was right.

Especially when they re-contacted the company that Su Yang was working with, they felt that it was because of their arrogance that Su Yang made the second choice.

For a moment, they were all frustrated.

He felt that because of their arrogance, their companies have lost the opportunity to get this core technology first.

However, there was still a chance to turn the situation around. After all, Su Yang was currently working with a small automobile company. If he wanted to develop, he would still have to work with the world’s top car brands. They were a company of this level.

Furthermore, Su Yang had the intention to cooperate with them, so they felt that they had a good chance.

As long as their relationship with Su Yang was restored, perhaps Japan’s auto industry would continue to lead the world, or even… Become the true number one!

Meanwhile, Nindentou, which was far away in Osaka, was also welcoming a guest. A man in a man’s kimono with tattoos all over his arms and even some tattoos on his face.

One of Nindentou’s directors welcomed the guest because he was the boss of a local gang.

In Japan, gangs were legal due to the protection of Article 21 of the national law, which also caused them to be extremely powerful. Even a world-class gaming company like Nindentou did not dare to neglect them. Even if they did not take them seriously, they would not casually make enemies.

However, the two industries and the company did not have much interaction, so Nindentou was also confused as to why this gang leader would come to him.

And soon they knew the purpose of the visitor…

The director who came out to receive Nindentou looked at the person in front of him in shock. “What did you say? There’s a Chinese company that developed high-performance graphene batteries? The continuation is ten times the current battery?”

The gang leader crossed his legs and smoked his cigarette. He nodded and said arrogantly, “Yes, that’s right. It’s the famous Jiadian Group. I remember the newspaper even reported on the glass phone that they developed.

“This time, they’ve entered the automobile industry and cooperated with two domestic companies. That’s how they released the news about the battery.

“But, I have my sources, and I’m a relative of one of their executives. That relative is my best friend. He said that he has seen the sample made by Jiadian Group and heard from his relatives about the development of the battery industry.

“Jiadian Group has actually already been miniaturized a long time ago. The glass phone is their masterpiece.

“The solar cells that have been released are only secondary to this. There are many other batteries in the research institute as well.

Nindentou director asked warily, “But, what does this have to do with us? We’re just a gaming company.”

The tattooed boss said nonchalantly, “I know you guys are a gaming company, but I remember that you guys have been developing palm machines. If you use these batteries, I believe the continuation will increase by a lot, right? And working with such a technology company will also increase the stock price of your company, right?”

Actually, before the tattooed boss told him about this, the director of Nindentou’s company had already thought about the matter, which was why he was so cautious earlier.

Now that he saw that the tattooed boss had indeed mentioned his company’s console business, he became even more cautious.

Seeing his expression, the tattooed boss laughed in disdain. “Don’t think that I’m plotting something against you. Right now, you’re the ones begging me.

“I don’t have time to waste with you. I still need to go to the other companies to tell them about this. When the time comes, it’ll be up to you who can seize the opportunity.”

Someone from Nindentou’s board of directors asked, “You’re not exclusively coming to our company?”

The tattooed boss laughed out loud as he stubbed out his cigarette. “Aren’t you overestimating yourself? Like you said, you’re just a gaming company, so you’re definitely not my first target!”

Nindentou’s director was a little skeptical, but he still asked, “Then, who are your targets?”

The tattooed boss boldly stretched out his hand. “All companies that use this battery! I will negotiate with many Japanese technology companies and see their sincerity. Then, I will cooperate with a few of them. When the time comes, they will be the guides of the new era.”

Hearing this, the director asked, “Are you sure you can get this battery?”

The tattooed boss smiled. “Of course! We have our own channels!”

Because the tattooed boss had come too coincidentally and too abruptly, Nindentou did not know much about him, and neither did they know if what he said was true. So, of course, they did not dare to continue cooperating.

Under such circumstances where they would not be cooperating for the time being, it was not convenient for Nindentou’s board of directors to continue asking questions. Therefore, he left a contact number for the tattooed boss and politely sent him out.

After the tattooed boss left, Nindentou’s director immediately reported the matter to the company’s president.

When the president of Nindentou heard about this situation, he pondered for a moment and did not make a decision immediately. He picked up the phone and called a friend of his who had contact with the underground gang of the capital city. He asked him to find out more about the tattooed boss.

Then, the messages kept coming to the president of Nindentou’s desk.

He found out about who the tattooed boss as, and the ins and outs of the entire situation.

According to the information given by his friend, there was a Chinese tourist who came to Japan more than a month ago. Like many single men who came to Japan, he also liked to go to some local shops to experience… Japanese sentiments.

This man was obviously very rich, and his daily bills were like spilled money, so he attracted a lot of attention.

Later, when he was having an in-depth conversation with a girl, he was targeted by a local gang member. Then, he was framed and the gang wanted to extort him.
