In a hotel in Sao Paulo.
Li Yu, the person in charge of Changcheng Company in Brazil, is conversing with some management from Mercedes-Benz in Brazil.
Both parties have already reached an agreement on the joint acquisition of Yiboli Automobile Factory.
They are now discussing some detailed issues.
However, soon a staff member walked in from outside the hotel and whispered something in Li Yu's ear.
After hearing this, Li Yu's face immediately darkened.
"Gentlemen, something unexpected has occurred," Li Yu said, walking over to the group still engaged in discussion, "I just received news that the Marco Clan no longer intends to sell Yiboli Automobile Factory to outsiders."
What Li Yu said was like a bomb dropped among those present.
After a moment of silence, these people quickly reacted, hastily picking up their phones to verify the news in their own ways.
Soon, all the information was gathered together.
The Marco Clan recently announced that they would no longer sell Yiboli Automobile Factory.
Even officials from Sao Paulo City Government had just learned of this.
"Why is this happening?" these people asked in confusion.
They had completed all the preliminary preparations.
Why would something that was already set in stone still encounter changes?
The Brazilian automobile market's production and sales volumes last year ranked tenth globally.
Moreover, Brazil was the first country in the world to popularize flexible fuels, with a market share of over 80%.
But in such a large market, traditional automobile manufacturers from Europe and America find it hard to profit.
Because these European and American manufacturers are not strong in the field of new energy, and the car prices are high.
Even though Brazil has reduced tariffs, they still cannot compete with Huaxia's new energy vehicles.
Therefore, when Changcheng initially aimed to acquire Yiboli Automobile Factory, there weren't many competitors, with the only significant threat being Biya Mansion, another Huaxia brand.
However, since Changcheng chose to cooperate with Mercedes-Benz, Biya Mansion withdrew from the competition and chose to build its own car factory in other states instead.
Li Yu really couldn't think of who else in Sao Paulo could compete with them.
"Did you find out why the Marco Clan suddenly changed their mind?" Li Yu asked his subordinate.
"No news yet," the subordinate replied, "We haven't had much contact with the Marco Clan before, mainly communicating with local officials in Sao Paulo.
I've already inquired with the officials who liaised with us before; they just found out too and don't know why the Marco Clan suddenly backed out."
"Alright," Li Yu nodded and then went back into the room to call the current president of Changcheng, Wei Hanyu.
"What the hell are you people doing!" Wei Hanyu flew into a rage upon hearing the news.
Lately, things have not been going well for Wei Hanyu.
Or rather, ever since Wei Hanyu became the president of Changcheng, nothing has gone smoothly.
After taking office, the first action she took was against her father's old ministers, driving away many who had worked in the company for decades.
This led to continuous opposition against her within the company.
And she hadn't even had the chance to prove herself before.
Wang Fengyi, whom she personally ordered to be expelled from the company, was hired by Fei Peng Automobile with a high salary, and the person who recommended Wang Fengyi even lent him money to buy Fei Peng Automobile's stocks.
This led Wei Hanyu to vent her anger on Chen Yiyang, who recommended Wang Fengyi to Fei Peng Automobile.
Initially, she thought the other party was just an ordinary rich second generation.
Unexpectedly, the other party retaliated against Changcheng through various means.
This made Wei Hanyu's tenure at Changcheng even more difficult.
However, when Wei Hanyu became Changcheng's president, her father did make some arrangements for her.
The acquisition of Yiboli Automobile Factory in Brazil and the cooperation with Mercedes-Benz to sell cars there was one of the most significant accomplishments.
If this could be completed during Wei Hanyu's presidency, she would have noteworthy achievements both internally and externally.
Leading Changcheng Automobile to step out onto the global stage is something commendable anywhere.
Yet, Wei Hanyu never expected.
That something assured could still have errors?!
Weren't all things said to have been negotiated before?!
After hesitating for a long time, Wei Hanyu chose to call her father and inform him of the situation.
Wei Yujun's first reaction was that someone was manipulating events behind the scenes.
The Yiboli Automobile Factory project was originally a plan he had devised from the start.
The Marco Clan behind Yiboli Automobile Factory primarily engaged in fisheries, with significant cooperation domestically.
It was through this reason that Wei Yujun learned about Yiboli Automobile Factory.
At that time, the only competitor to Changcheng was Biya Mansion.
It took considerable effort for Wei Yujun to drive Biya Mansion away.
Could it be that Biya Mansion had a change of heart, found some connection, and planned to acquire Yiboli Automobile Factory again?
Thinking of this, Wei Yujun immediately began making calls to contacts, inquiring about news from Biya Mansion.
Soon, the information came back.
Biya Mansion had no plans to return to Sao Paulo.
The location for their new factory was already chosen, and the land was purchased, ready to transfer workers from home to start construction.
Unless they were crazy, it was impossible to return to Sao Paulo to buy Yiboli Automobile Factory.
Who else could it be?
Seated in the tea room at home, holding a tea bowl, Wei Yujun pondered for a long time.
A person suddenly popped into his mind.
Chen Yiyang.
Could it really be him?
Even Wei Yujun felt the idea was a bit far-fetched.
He's just a young man; where would he find the network in Brazil to disrupt Changcheng?
But whether it was because of the psychological shadow Chen Yiyang had previously cast on him.
Since beginning to suspect Chen Yiyang, deep down, Wei Yujun felt that the matter probably had something to do with Chen Yiyang.
So he began using his connections to inquire about what Chen Yiyang was up to recently.
Then he received news.
Chen Yiyang had gone abroad over a week ago, reportedly to South America.
Could it really be that kid?
Wei Yujun's heart gave a fierce throb.
However, soon, more news came saying Chen Yiyang had already returned home.
That's good.
Upon hearing Chen Yiyang had returned, Wei Yujun immediately removed him from the list of suspects.
Because for now, the Marco Clan had only temporarily canceled the plan to sell Yiboli Automobile Factory.
If it was indeed Chen Yiyang manipulating things, he should be based in Brazil, continuing to push for the acquisition of Yiboli Automobile Factory, rather than returning home.
Chen Yiyang indeed returned home.
Because he had something very important to handle upon his return.
Flying from Sao Paulo to Fei Yang City requires two transfers.
A stopover is needed in Lin'an.
When Chen Yiyang arrived at Lin'an Airport, some of his assistants and subordinates were already waiting for him there.
