After Divorce, I Can Hear the Future
Chapter 591: We Have It, Tesla Doesnt Necessarily Have It

Ever since becoming a mother, Su Wanyu hadnt had a single night of restful sleep. Even with a nanny, she worried about what would happen if the little one missed her mom.

Just as dawn broke, she suddenly woke up from a dream, driven by instinct to the nursery next door.

Seeing the room door tightly shut, she couldnt help frowning. Lu Liang had hired two nannies for the household: Aunt Zhou and Mrs. Liu, one responsible for daytime, the other for nighttime.

No matter the time, the nursery door was always left open to allow easy monitoring of the situation, just in case the little one cried out, so she could rush over immediately.

Su Wanyu hurriedly opened the room and was suddenly stunned by the scene before her, showing a gentle look in her eyes.

Lu Liang was sprawled out on the floor snoring, while the little one, sucking her thumb, slept soundly on his belly.

The tiny body, accompanied by slight snoring, bobbed up and down like riding a small rocking horse.

"Sweet dreams, daughter, and daddy."

Su Wanyu smiled tenderly, taking a stealthy photo with her phone, before quietly leaving the nursery.

She had read many childcare books, all of which emphasized the importance of companionship for infants.

Mother and daughter were together every day, so there was no worry, but Su Wanyu was concerned that the little one wouldnt be close to Lu Liang in the future, primarily because they were seldom together, interacting less than a day per week.

Fortunately, she was overthinking it.

A little past eight, Lu Liang woke up, awakened by pain.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the little one biting his chest through the gaps between the buttons of his pajamas.

She looked up at Lu Liang, her big eyes filled with enormous confusion. She didnt understand why, after biting so hard, there still wasnt any food.

Her pitiful appearance made it impossible to scold her.

Lu Liang sighed, looking helpless, as he groggily picked up the little one, taking her out to find breakfast.

"Aunt Zhang just made some noodles, you can serve yourself a bowl," Su Wanyu said with a faint smile, picking up the little one and heading to the bedroom.

"Ill skip the meal, and nap a bit more; theres an important meeting later in the afternoon."

Lu Liang yawned, returning to the nursery.

He slept for another five hours, until lunchtime, and only after eating did he lazily head to the company.

Upon arriving at the company, Lu Liang received exciting news from Hu Weiwei: just moments ago, their order volume reached fifty thousand units.

According to their competitors practice, every ten thousand units calls for publicity, buying some trending search terms to boost the new cars popularity a bit.

"We dont need to do that; no need to act like weve never seen the world before. Well talk when its a hundred thousand."

Lu Liang smiled, glancing at the A-share market chart.

This April, the new energy index rose by 823 points, sending the sector into frenzy, becoming the hottest topic in the market.

Looking back two and a half years ago, the index was only 1,458 points, and there were just 54 constituent stocks.

Today, at this very moment, the new energy index reached 8,834 points, with 219 constituent stocks.

This topic is so hot, its like gold everywhere. Not only have traditional giants like Hengtai joined, but even random companies from various industries want to jump on the bandwagon.

Molders claim to produce vehicle dashboards, textile companies say theyre making vehicle seat fabrics.

Seeing this trend, fertilizer sellers think, why not? Others can hop on board, so can we. Thus, they claim theyve discovered a rare lithium energy mine on their mountain.

From car manufacturers to suppliers at various levels, to lithium battery and material providers, those related say they will increase investment, those unrelated say they will accelerate their layout.

As long as they get associated with the new energy topic, their stock prices can rise ten or twenty points along with the sector.

If by chance its spotted by scheme capitals, the increase could easily be three to five times, which company can resist such temptation?

Even if theres a complete mess after the hype, there are still tens or even hundreds of thousands of retail investors accompanying them in the market. When they want to cash out, they dont have to worry about demand.

But its quite miraculous, while the new energy index has gone berserk, Big A is still struggling at 3,100 points.

"Ill go to Su City tomorrow; theres something I havent finished handling today," Lu Liang said while conversing with Hu Weiwei, when suddenly Xu Jiawei knocked and entered. Lu Liang nodded and ended the call.

"Mr. Lu, Mr. Wilson has arrived."

"Lets go."

Lu Liang nodded slightly, following Xu Jiawei. The two of them arrived at the reception room next door, where Tang Caide was eagerly hosting.

A team of seven, two women and five men; apart from the two women who were difficult to judge, the five men were mostly of Jewish descent.

Jewish men are easy to identify, with fair skin tinted with pink, classic Caucasian features, yet with dark hair and eyes, or brown eyes, longer noses, most commonly hooked.

"Lu, I dont think Ive introduced my team before: Vivian, Laris, Pike Meng..."

Wilson was all smiles, as the equity transfer involved billions of dollars, the head office paid special attention and even assigned a private jet for them.

They had already prepared everything on the plane and headed straight to Lujiazui in Modu, where Tianxing Investment is located upon landing.

"Hello, everyone." Lu Liang greeted each of them and turned his head towards Xu Jiawei, asking him to go downstairs and bring Sun Yutao up.

"Kamon, your actions are indeed swift." He sat at the head of the coffee table, brewing Chaoshans kung fu tea.

The Chaoshan people are indeed skilled in doing business, not without reason.

Sometimes inspiration sparks during tea-time talk, leading to new profitable ideas, whereas drinking leads only to boastful talk afterwards.

"If I dont hurry, Im concerned you might change your mind."

Wilson laughed heartily, having known Lu Liang for three years and studied him for the same time; he wouldnt be unaware of Lu Liangs thoughts.

Shorting Tesla is indeed to make money.

But besides that, Lu Liang probably aims to elevate Tianxing Automobiles status by debasing Tesla.

Imagine, if Tianxing Automobile announced order lock quantities causing Teslas stock price to plummet, what perception would it create?

[Tesla is inferior to Tianxing]

[Teslas predicament]

[Musks crisis]

Thirteen hours ago, Wilson was still in New York, already seeing similar news reports.

This put enormous pressure on him because Wall Street was not entirely harmonious; his old rival, Shilidan Bank, also has enterprises they are pushing from 4v, namely NVIDIA.

The American tech banner can only have one side, and if elected successfully, those backing them would receive unimaginable resource allocation and speaking rights.

"Once a word is spoken, it will not be retracted; this is called a promise that is difficult to chase down."

Lu Liang smiled, using a clamp to place a cup of tea in front of Wilson, and suddenly asked, "Kamon, who do you think will win in a clash between Tesla and Tianxing?"

"Lu, to be honest, Ive never sat in or driven any Tesla model, nor have I with Tianxings newly released car."

Wilson pondered for a while; he always thought electric cars were unsafe, especially those boasting intelligence, making him uneasy.

Lu Liang fell silent but could understand because the US has precedents like the Prism Plan, monitoring globally.

Now, with higher intelligent electric cars, especially Tesla constantly promoting full autonomous driving, wealthy businessmen wouldnt entrust their lives to others.

Just like Lu Liang, he owns all Tesla models, even more than one, but has never taken them on the road, only slightly experienced on indoor tracks.

He also worries over sudden brake failures or doors locking unexpectedly, perhaps driving straight into a lake.

Just like when Little Wang recommended mechanical doors, considering that if power is cut off and the doors cant open, how despairing one would be inside.

"Ive never driven them, nor do I know which is better, but I understand data and market."

Wilson suddenly raised his eyes, sharp gaze directly fixed on Lu Liang: "Without you, I believe Tesla would have no rival; but with you, I dont understand you."

"Then Ill take that as a compliment."

Lu Liang squinted with a smile, and at that moment, Sun Yutao knocked and entered, Lu Liang introduced, "Sun Yutao, general manager of our private equity fund company."

"Kamon, lets continue the previous topic."

Lu Liang said with a smile, and Wilson furrowed his brow: "Lu, why not just be direct?"

"Then I wont beat around the bush."

Lu Liangs smile faded, putting Tianxing Automobile and Tesla side by side for an all-round comparison.

"Tesla has a factory in East Country, so do we."

"Tesla has a factory in the US, so do we."

"Tesla collaborates with major universities, receiving a continuous flow of talent, which we can also achieve."

"But we have what Tesla may not have."

Shorting Tesla is not the end goal; wiping it out is.

But Tesla, as a candidate for the third generation of technological flag bearers in the US, cant be easily destroyed by Lu Liang.

Driving Liu Qing out of DiDi back then took money and effort, consuming more than a year.

Taking down Tesla now will only be more troublesome.

One point must be made: gaining support from capital forces backing Tesla, for only when both sides of the hand are meat will they not favor either side.

Overturning Tesla single-handedly is impossible; hence, Lu Liang considered, with stock transfer excuses, bringing Wilson over and persuading him to bet on both ends.

He can support Tesla,

Why not support Tianxing Automobile?

Therefore, Lu Liang did not turn against him last night.
