Chapter 358: Chapter 325: Accidentally Produced a Bit Too Much? Gearing Up
He didn’t waste words.
The main reason was that he didn’t particularly need Dong Xun to join this time. So, even if Dong Xun decided against it after some consideration, it wouldn’t be a major issue.
...
In a fairly bright office, Dong Xun sat at his desk. A young woman stood before him.
If Ye Ling had been there, he would have recognized her instantly.
Huang Wenwen!
That’s right—the very same woman whose composure had been utterly shattered by Ye Ling’s antics!
"Xiaohuang, how much do we have in liquid assets right now?" Dong Xun asked, looking up at Huang Wenwen.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that Ye Ling had previously messed with her head. Huang Wenwen was extremely competent—she was Dong Xun’s right-hand woman!
Otherwise, Dong Xun wouldn’t have sent her to make contact with Ye Ling last time.
After all, Ye Ling was just too important.
Dong Xun wasn’t about to send some fucking idiot to meet with Ye Ling, was he?
It was just a shame that after all his meticulous planning, Dong Xun had never anticipated that this guy, Ye Ling, would be a bona fide Yin-Yang Master.
As it turned out, a Yin-Yang Master was truly unbeatable!
"Boss, are you really planning on joining them?" Huang Wenwen asked tentatively, momentarily stunned.
She had overheard the conversation between Dong Xun and Ye Ling just now!
This fact alone was enough to prove that there was more to Huang Wenwen than met the eye.
Her position was not a lowly one!
"Mm."
Dong Xun nodded and added, "The risks are greater this time, but I don’t think that guy Ye Ling would ever get involved in a losing deal."
Was Ye Ling a fool?
Of course not!
In Dong Xun’s eyes, Ye Ling was a cunning little fox.
And the fact that Ye Ling was willing to take this on despite the great risk... what did that imply?
It meant the potential profits were absolutely massive!
Moreover, the probability of success had to be higher than the probability of failure.
"The main issue is that our liquid capital is a bit too tight lately. The investment in Tianxin has been a massive drain," Dong Xun said, unable to stop a sigh from escaping.
However!
Despite saying that, he didn’t regret his decision in the slightest.
Once Tianxin Technology Company was truly up and running, it was bound to be incredibly profitable in the future.
In short.
This round of investment was definitely not a losing bet!
But the problem now was that Tianxin Technology Company needed time to grow.
The long development cycle of the chip industry was an unavoidable reality.
"We should be able to mobilize about three billion in liquid assets right now," Huang Wenwen said after a moment of thought.
Was three billion a lot of money?
Not really.
Never mind comparing it to Ning Tianliang of Ning International—just comparing it to Ye Ling was enough. The capital Ye Ling could personally mobilize had already surpassed ten billion!
"Then put it all in."
Dong Xun gritted his teeth.
He was not an impulsive man.
But to reap massive profits, one had to put down a sufficiently large stake.
Therefore.
This time, Dong Xun chose to be impulsive.
For Dong Xun, three billion was the absolute maximum he could afford to lose!
...
「Meanwhile, in Modu.」
After hanging up, Ye Ling closed his eyes and began to ponder his next move.
Ye Ling’s target this time was a top player in the global chip industry: Mitsubishi Technology Company. They were undoubtedly a formidable foe.
Ye Ling currently held two trump cards. In addition to the stock card, he possessed an ace in the hole specifically for use against Mitsubishi Technology Company.
Most importantly...
The funds Ye Ling had raised for this operation had already surpassed twenty billion!
This was, by far, the largest amount of capital Ye凌 had ever mobilized.
Even during the assault on Fruit Group, he had only mobilized ten billion...
And that time, he had utterly ruined Fruit Group, a corporation with a market cap of over a trillion US dollars!
That’s just how the financial markets were.
It was never about who was more impressive simply because they had more money.
Using a small amount of capital to create multiple levels of leverage, taking on entities with tens or even hundreds of times the capital reserves—that was the mark of a truly brilliant financial investor!
BUZZ BUZZ!
Just as Ye Ling was lost in thought, his phone suddenly vibrated. It was a message from Chen Lin.
’Chen Lin: President Ye, an extra three billion just showed up in our account.’
’That must be the money from Dong Xun.’
’So...’
’Did Dong Xun sell everything but the kitchen sink to scrape together three billion?’
The corners of Ye Ling’s mouth lifted into a slight smile. He had a rough idea of Dong Xun’s cash flow.
It couldn’t have been easy for him to come up with that much money.
Just then, a message from Dong Xun came through.
’Dong Xun: Funds transferred. Please confirm receipt.’
Ye Ling casually sent back an "OK" emoji before getting back to Chen Lin.
’Chen Lin: You mean another big shot has joined us?’
’Ye Ling: Hahaha, yes, you’re right. But this big shot is a little poor. This is probably his entire net worth.’
’Chen Lin: Don’t worry, President Ye. I’ll be extremely careful. By the way, when does the real action start?’
’Ye Ling: Very soon!’
Ye Ling ended the chat and dialed Lin Xiao’s number.
"President Ye, hello!" Lin Xiao answered Ye Ling’s call almost instantly, his greeting extremely enthusiastic.
Ye Ling’s current standing within the Xia Wei Group was now incredibly high.
After all.
If it weren’t for Ye Ling, the Xia Wei Group would have been finished long ago, wouldn’t it?
At the very least, its share of the smartphone market would have been almost completely eroded by now.
"Something has come up, and I wanted to let you know," Ye Ling said.
"Something’s come up? Is it about the 7nm chips?"
Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "President Ye, please don’t worry. If it’s really not possible, then let’s just forget about it. But the friendship between Xia Wei Group and you will absolutely not change!"
Ye Ling hadn’t stated the issue upfront, deliberately keeping him in suspense. In truth, this was a test.
He wanted to see what Lin Xiao’s attitude would be.
And Lin Xiao’s current attitude was, without a doubt, very satisfying to Ye Ling.
"Brother Lin, you’ve misunderstood," Ye Ling said with a light laugh. "There’s no problem with the 7nm chips. It’s just that... our production volume might be a little higher than expected."
"Higher... a little higher?"
Lin Xiao’s voice was suddenly filled with excitement. "Are you serious?"
"I’m serious. It’s about 60,000 units. Can you handle that?" Ye Ling asked.
"We can handle it! We’ll take as many as you’ve got!"
Lin Xiao said without a moment’s hesitation.
Xia Wei Group’s current shortfall of 7nm chips was enormous.
To be honest, the 30,000 units Ye Ling had initially promised were barely enough for Xia Wei Group.
And now there were 60,000!
The number had doubled.
Lin Xiao felt like he was on an emotional rollercoaster that had just shot back up to the stratosphere!
"Great. The price is the same as we agreed upon before. When will you send someone to pick them up?" Ye Ling asked with a chuckle.
"Right now. I’ll book a ticket to Modu right now," Lin Xiao said without hesitation.
He couldn’t wait to get his hands on this batch of "relief supplies."
Xia Wei Group had a new phone model slated for release at the end of March.
Originally, due to joint suppression from Western financial consortiums, the launch of this new model was supposed to be delayed.
But under the current circumstances...
If they hurried, they might just be able to launch on schedule!
In the current climate, this new model was no longer just a new phone for Xia Wei Group; it was a powerful counterattack against the Western financial powers.
For Xia Wei Group to release a new model on schedule despite the joint suppression from numerous financial powers—that would be a more powerful statement than any press release.
It would be a vicious slap in the face to those Western financial powers!
"By the way, President Ye, there’s something I’d like to discuss with you..."
Lin Xiao spoke up again.
