Chapter 229: Chapter 229 Jiangyuan Liu Family_1
The Tang Family’s automotive company was most infamous for what was so-called "Mileage Division."
Almost all of their cars were high imitations of other brands.
Although it had its moment of fame when it was first established,
automotive companies like this with no technology, no design, and that even resort to knock-offs, have declined completely nowadays.
To tell the truth, for Xinmeng Group, it was an absolute mess.
But a mess like this was easier to start from scratch.
When they acquired it, Jiang Meng and Liu Xin decided to stop the production of all models.
They publicly claimed that it was for the transformation of the production line.
To create a completely new brand of car.
Even the logo needed to be redesigned, and the brand name had to be chosen anew.
And it was open to the entire society, with a substantial reward offered.
Besides that, Xinmeng Group also spent a lot on headhunters to dig for experts and talented individuals in the automotive field.
For this purpose, Xiao Chen also utilized his connections to poach a former designer from Mercedes from abroad.
There was really no other way in terms of technology; it was tightly locked up internationally, and they had to rely on their own abilities to break through the blockade.
Xinmeng Group’s current plan was a two-pronged approach.
For the time being, they would use imported major components, ensuring that quality took precedence.
At the same time, they would increase investment in technological research and development, mobilizing all possible resources to overcome the difficulties of the major components.
Of course, Xiao Chen was no longer involved in these matters.
The senior management of Xinmeng Group, which had now grown, would find their own ways to solve the issues.
He had come to Jianghu Teahouse, drinking tea that cost ten thousand a cup.
Ghost Blade and the proprietress Abing sat beside him.
"It’s really peaceful!"
Abing smiled and said, "Ever since the Boss came to Jiangcheng, I feel like my Jianghu Teahouse doesn’t have much use anymore."
"I never imagined the renowned Jianghu Teahouse would actually belong to you.
Ghost Blade is extremely impressed!"
In the past few days, Ghost Blade had been going through a series of shocking events.
First was Xiao Chen’s formidable strength, then his way of spending money like it was nothing, and now it was this Jianghu Teahouse.
He felt as if he had truly lived in a mountain village with no network coverage in the past.
How could he be so oblivious?
"What’s there to admire? Jianghu Teahouse is really nothing special.
Have you ever heard of ’Aristocrat Coffee’?"
Xiao Chen laughed.
"You’re really challenging me now,"
Ghost Blade said with a wry smile. "I haven’t even been abroad."
"You should travel more, see the world. Aristocrat Coffee is just like Jianghu Teahouse, except it’s our overseas establishment.
It’s also responsible for gathering intelligence,"
Xiao Chen explained with a laugh.
"You really are remarkable, not only to have arrangements within the country but to have also laid out plans abroad,"
Ghost Blade said with awe.
"Remarkable?"
Xiao Chen shook his head, "Many people could actually do it; they just don’t bother to try.
Because it’s too difficult.
So they retreat at the first sign of trouble."
"The Boss really enjoys taking on tough challenges,"
Abing said with a smile. "What you’re doing now, many people wouldn’t even dare to dream of.
Compared to those families who only know how to bleed others dry, you are truly a breath of fresh air,
helping ordinary people, honest people, and the needy without looking for anything in return."
"You’re making me sound too noble,"
Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "I’m just casually doing some good deeds in my spare time."
"Casually doing some good deeds?"
Ghost Blade was stunned.
The things Xiao Chen had done since his arrival in Jiangcheng had left him in complete admiration, not to mention Linhai.
If this was what he called casual, he wished every wealthy person would be casual just like that.
This society wouldn’t have so many suffering people.
"By the way, Boss, I heard that Xinmeng Group is planning to expand into the Jiangbei market?"
Abing asked.
"Jiangbei’s location is critical, bridging the north and south. Taking over the Jiangbei market is the only way to march into the north,"
Xiao Chen said.
"This matter won’t be easy!"
Abing reminded, "According to our intelligence, the situation in Jiangbei is now very complicated.
Since Wang Han’s defeat,
Jiangbei has been divided among the major family clans.
The clans from the north have not gotten much, rather it’s the established aristocratic clans of the south that have seized most of Jiangbei’s market.
You should be aware that both Jiangnan and Jiangbei are part of Dragon Country’s southeastern area.
The southeastern area is composed of ten provinces and regions.
Apart from Jiangnan and Jiangbei, the other eight provinces and regions have little contact with the north.
They all have their own consortiums and family clans.
These clans have long taken deep roots in the southeast area.
Competing for the market with them is likely to be very difficult."
"Heh, those people sure are quick!"
Xiao Chen chuckled, "However, Xinmeng Group will take over the southeastern market sooner or later.
So, whether it’s sooner or later, it’s the same.
If they behave, everyone can make their own money without affecting each other.
If they insist on being enemies with Xinmeng Group, then I’m sorry for them."
"Those people are unlikely to stay quiet; they will definitely reach out to Xinmeng Group’s business.
They do not want to see Xinmeng Group rising so quickly,"
Abing said.
"Then let them come!"
Xiao Chen replied with a light smile, "Otherwise, it would be too boring! Xinmeng Group has grown to where it is today by withstanding tests.
It’s not something that can be defeated by just any consortium or family clan."
"Boss, you always have such a broad perspective."
Abing laughed, but still, I have to report the latest intelligence to you: "Currently, the one occupying the largest share of the Jiangbei market is Jiangyuan Prefecture, which borders both Jiangnan Prefecture and Jiangbei Prefecture!
And the Liu Family of Jiangyuan Prefecture has recently made moves.
They had long planned to swallow up the Tang Family’s automotive group.
Unfortunately, Xinmeng Group got there first.
The Liu Family’s automotive group is much stronger than the Tang Family’s, with numerous proprietary technologies.
They sell about twenty thousand vehicles a month.
Considered one of the better domestic car manufacturers, it is said that the Liu Family’s automotive group even has their own engine development center in Europe.
What they want most now is the automotive group of Xinmeng Group.
They also wish to enter the market of Jiangnan Prefecture."
"The Jiangyuan Liu Family?"
Xiao Chen seemed to have an impression of such a family clan, but he couldn’t recall the specifics.
However, Liu’s automobiles are indeed very common in the southeast area.
Cheap and of decent quality, that’s where they outperform Tang automobiles.
If the Liu Family is really eyeing Xinmeng Group, that would indeed be a cause for vigilance.
Although they haven’t ventured into the pharmaceutical and food industries, they are very strong in the automotive sector.
They would surely find ways to suppress the development of Xinmeng Automotive Group.
In the end, acquiring it at a low price.
Luckily, Xinmeng Group has no immediate plans to go public, otherwise, the other party might even try to gain control and quietly make Xinmeng Group their own.
"I have already prepared the information on the Jiangyuan Liu Family; you should let Chairman Jiang review it when you return.
I fear they will be one of our main competitors in the future,"
Abing handed over a thick stack of files to Xiao Chen.
Ghost Blade helped take them.
"That’s true, thank you for your hard work!"
Xiao Chen said to Abing with a smile, "Has there been any news from Xiao Corporation recently?"
