Start by trimming cow hooves

At this moment.

Just left the Oval Office and on my way to the Four Seasons Hotel in Washington.

Secretary Amanda hung up the phone and said to Suri:

"I asked someone to re-check the suite you stayed in to make sure no monitoring equipment was installed. This feeling of "House of Cards" coming to life is really exciting."

"However, the promise not to build a factory in California within three years and not sell electric cars priced below $40,000 within four years will definitely have an impact on the stock price expectations of S Electric Vehicles. Once word gets out, will it be regarded as false? Are you going to give in first?"

"I think you should be stronger, otherwise other shareholders of S Electric Vehicles may also blame you for making decisions without authorization."

Suri opened the bulletproof window to a crack.

He took out the cigar from the cigar box and held it between his fingers. He lit it with a pure gold lighter inlaid with emeralds and said slowly in a calm tone:

"What kind of compromise? Isn't this the best proof that they are afraid of me?"

"It doesn't matter even if the news gets out. You can let the public relations department release the news that traditional fuel vehicle companies are afraid of S Electric Vehicle Company's technology and business prospects. Instead, it will have the opportunity to push the stock price up instead of down."

"The reason why I gave such a temporary guarantee was mainly because the person in the office was worried that the decline in the importance of oil would directly affect the position of the U.S. dollar in the global trading market, and at the same time cause fierce reactions from fuel car companies and oil giants. , so I give them some time to prepare and eliminate uncertainties.”

"Anyway, there is no way to reduce the cost of car manufacturing in the short term, and there are no other competitors in the field of new energy vehicles that can threaten S Electric Vehicle Company. The situation will be different in a few years. In fact, the impact will be very small. With that It is difficult to completely open up sales by adding more trouble to others. In fact, for S Electric Vehicle Company, the international market is more important than the US market."

Look at it from the perspective of an ordinary person.

This place in Washington is teeming with dragons and tigers, and the water is so deep that it could drown countless people.

But at Suri's current height, he is no longer a small player who can be manipulated by others. To put it bluntly, it is no different from doing business in normal times. It is nothing more than playing games with each other for profit.

Even in Washington, he is one of the most powerful figures. He not only controls massive funds and media channels, but also has full influence and has attracted many powerful allies.

Because there are many Wall Street oligarchs behind S Electric Vehicle Company to help support it.

Traditional car companies and oil giants have joined forces to suppress it, but the result is only to successfully promote a question meeting and try to pour dirty water on S Electric Vehicle Company and slow down its rise.

If you offend them with a small character with little strength, you will most likely die if you try.

It involves massive interests worth hundreds of billions of dollars, and the consequences are no easier than going to the "Starfish Building" to audit the accounts. But Suri is not only alive and kicking, but can even influence how to distribute the tempting big cake of "new energy vehicles."

Now almost all eyes are focused on S Electric Vehicle Company.

With it helping to attract firepower and attention, Suri's business in China is quietly building strength.

Relying on the Shanghai Gigafactory and BYD, the smart cockpit department in cooperation with Warwick, and the research and development of automotive power batteries, etc., we continue to complete the industrial chain, acquire and finance many upstream industries in a low-key manner, and we may not know when it will suddenly emerge in the international market. A blockbuster.

The thirty-six strategies left by the ancestors were finally mastered by him.

Counting this time alone, the tactics used include "hiding the truth from the truth", "secretly deceiving Chen Cang", "making false claims in the east and attacking in the west", etc., and then there is also a "counterintuitive plan" waiting for several traditional fuel vehicle companies.

The interests of those traditional car companies and oil giants seem to be consistent. However, if there is an opportunity to make money by selling new energy vehicles, I believe they will immediately be impatient and use the new track to suppress Japanese, Korean and European car brands.

After all, how much money the oil giants make has nothing to do with the car companies. They only care about whether their own interests are damaged.

These competitors who were dissatisfied with S Electric Vehicle Company were alerted this time and appeared in front of Suri, giving him the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

He is considering using the power of the United States to take the lead in killing European, Japanese and Korean car companies, reducing their market share, making a huge sum of money from them, and then taking advantage of the mainland's industrial chain to continue to get a piece of the pie.

If this trick of borrowing a knife to kill someone is done well, the pressure on Suri will be reduced drastically, because it is more cost-effective, and it can also bring countless new orders for parts processing, vehicle assembly, and power batteries to the mainland.

The magical little ball was still hanging around his neck.

Su Rui's mind was so bright that he found it incredible. After thinking about the crux of it, he suddenly said:

"I used to be a bit over the top. I always thought that taking advantage of the situation was the safest choice. But I have American citizenship and should create profits for my natural allies. Why can European, Japanese and Korean car companies steal from the United States?" Take that much market share?”

"."

Although it was not clear what bad idea Suri was harboring, based on how well Secretary Amanda knew him, she immediately felt that someone else might be in trouble.

She was not in a hurry to ask why. After making sure that the sound insulation panels in the car were closed, she said:

"The pressure you are facing now mainly comes from two aspects, one is entertainment media, and the other is new energy vehicles. As for Silicon Valley, since companies have raised funds and listed one after another, there have been basically no major problems. If you are willing to deepen cooperation with today's group of people, I believe that there will be no more trouble at the hearing."

Su Rui's initial idea is to win over Wall Street, American car companies, and oil businessmen to cooperate and form a new energy vehicle alliance.

Huaxia will provide cost-effective parts and labor to help this alliance defeat traditional car companies in Europe, Japan, and South Korea in the international market and take market share.

As for the mainland, by then, it will have a complete industrial chain, and self-created brands will be more cost-effective. It will be difficult for American brands to take over the market vacated by the collapse of European, Japanese, and Korean car companies. With Su Rui's help, it would be strange if they could lose.

By then, American businessmen will make money, and it will be even more difficult to completely decouple from the mainland. Mainland new energy vehicle brands can also seize international market share. During this period, Su Rui can also turn enemies into friends, enhance their own strength, and eliminate some hidden dangers.

Overall, it is much better than the current situation where they have to withstand the firepower while European, Japanese and Korean car companies continue to make a fortune quietly.

If this idea can be realized.

At that time, the United States will be busy promoting electric vehicles around the world, gradually and indirectly reducing the influence of the US dollar and oil in the world. It seems to be a win, but in the long run, it is a complete loss.

Because the overall interests of American businessmen and the United States are often not completely consistent, this trick may be very effective.

The price is that after the emergence of many competitors, it will be difficult for S Electric Vehicles to dominate the market and grow to the height of Tesla in the previous life. Su Rui thinks it is worth it.

Anyway, he never thought that he could eat alone. With the listing of S Electric Vehicles, his shareholding ratio has been reduced to about 45%, and there is still a chance to make up for the losses from other places (end of this chapter)
