After Divorce, I Can Hear the Future-Chapter 633: Butterfly Effect

"Before birth, we should really cut back, otherwise, I always feel like a tool."

Lu Liang lay on the bed with a lifeless look, after half an hour of an intense session, his hairstyle remained intact, he just lay there watching the whole time.

In contrast, Wang Chuting’s eyes were blurred, her face flushed, and sweat-soaked strands of hair stuck to her cheeks, giving a somewhat disheveled beauty.

She glanced at Lu Liang, held her belly, and didn’t dare to laugh too hard: "Did you think you weren’t like that before?"

Seeing Lu Liang’s displeased expression, Wang Chuting chuckled, quickly clinging to his arm, acting cute: "I know you’re concerned about me, afraid I might get hurt."

Before knowing Lu Liang, what she understood was that mistresses generally didn’t have good treatment, only looking glamorous on the outside, but actually just being tools for satisfying desires.

This view changed after she met Lu Liang, perhaps only Lu Liang could be the exception.

Other than some matters of principle, Lu Liang was willing to accommodate her in most things, cared for her, and would also confide in her.

For example, helping her start her own studio, using his connections early on to contact friends in the business world, create the Hall of Fame series, and thus make the self-media account an instant hit.

This kind of treatment, mistresses of other big shots probably don’t even dare to dream of because for them, mistresses only need to be good as canaries, and some even clip their wings for easier control, con fining them to jumping around within a cage.

Growing up in a single-parent family, Wang Chuting never had a sense of security, she used to think that she could only play the script of a strong female lead in her lifetime, and could only rely on herself going forward.

But she didn’t expect to feel safe and secure with Lu Liang, even making her, who decided early on to live alone, choose to get pregnant.

One must know that initially, she actively offered herself just to secure a worry-free future, her aim was quite pragmatic.

Now, Lu Liang is a perfect man in her eyes, perhaps a compensation from heaven for the hardships of her early life, to have Lu Liang come into her life.

"This one barely sounds human."

Lu Liang chuckled, resting his left hand under his head, with his right arm around Wang Chuting’s neck, drawing circles on her chest with his fingertips.

After pondering for a while, he suddenly said: "When it’s closer to the due date, head over to Xiangjiang, have the baby there."

Wang Chuting frowned slightly, expressing worry: "Isn’t her child born in the United Kingdom? Isn’t it inappropriate now?"

Lu Liang’s eldest daughter was born in the United Kingdom and, unsurprisingly, is still registered in the UK now.

If the second son is also born in Xiangjiang, what would people above think?

Besides, Xiangjiang doesn’t seem to be very peaceful right now.

"We don’t need to care about what they think, if you can choose, why not choose?"

Lu Liang’s mouth twisted into a sneer, and he thought about some recent events in Xiangjiang: "Some clowns can’t stir up much trouble. Despite the loud noise online, the ones daring to jump out are just those few dim-witted ones."

Xiangjiang people actually don’t miss those dog days because nobody wants to live under others, the recent uproar is fundamentally due to an imbalance in their hearts. .

It is known that since the last century, Xiangjiang was rated as the world’s number one overworked city, the world’s most densely populated city.

In the past, Mainland China hadn’t developed yet, so even though Xiangjiang people lived in birdcages, eating fast food and living lives lesser than dogs, they still had great salaries.

Even ordinary white-collar workers could cross over to Shenzhen on weekends, keep a mistress in Xiangxi Village, live a middle-class quality life, and alleviate the weekday blues.

But in recent years, Mainland China has developed rapidly, with booming e-commerce, express delivery, food delivery, and mobile payments that are cost-effective.

Xiangjiang people suddenly realized their sense of superiority was gone.

Especially some Mainland guys now often look at them with pity.

After all, having a monthly salary of 30-50 thousand, yet finding their living place even smaller than their toilet, with such living quality, wanting to find a sense of superiority from them seems ridiculous.

So, some Xiangjiang people’s mentality collapsed, and under the incitement of someone, the trouble began.

Hearing what Lu Liang said, Wang Chuting also put her worries aside, suddenly hugging him like a monkey: "I’ll just listen to you."

"How can I sleep with you hugging like this?"

"I’m pregnant~"

"So?"

Lu Liang gave her a glare, picked up the sleepwear from the ground, walked to the next room, and casually locked the door.

Wang Chuting looked full of grievance: "Bastard, just when I started to think better of you, you put on pants and don’t recognize people."

The next day, the public opinion about Meng Wanqiu’s arrest intensified.

Just like countless times before, once public anger is incited, it’s like a speeding out-of-control car, no one knows what will happen next.

The bottom-up public opinion, silently, turned Huawei from a victim into the largest beneficiary.

The nation supported it, the public supported it, offline stores had long queues, and the latest models of phones sold out on online malls.

It’s like declaring the decade-long battle for the brand leader among domestic phones has officially come to an end.

Previously, the phone industry was only Apple versus others, but now it could be Apple, Huawei, and others.

"Did Lei predict this step?"

All the competitors in the mobile industry fell silent, suddenly remembering Xiaomi’s entry into new energy at the beginning of the year, under the pressure of stock price drop.

Many competitors mocked Lei Jun as confused at the time, but looking back now, the confused people seem to have been them.

Because the king of domestic phones can only be one, Huawei waved the patriotic flag high and successfully ascended to the throne.

Unless they fall, otherwise, other phone brands can only be its followers.

Three months ago, Xiaomi retreated wisely and changed the track, which was indeed a brilliant move.

"New energy?!"

On this day, countless phone accessory executives and investors held emergency internal meetings.

Although the competition in the new energy field is even more brutal, no domestic king has emerged in this industry yet.

Entering now is not considered too late.

Isn’t it just four wheels plus a smartphone, where the smartphone is key, and that’s their expertise.

On that day, brand heads from Shenlan, Lingpao, Lantu, Avita, and others, all received calls from phone giants’ CEOs.

Although it’s just four wheels plus a smartphone, phone companies are, after all, outsiders. To quickly understand an industry, it’s best to first invest, then cooperate, and finally recruit people to establish their own brand.

Even Lu Liang received numerous invitation calls from mobile companies, because today, the new energy brand sales rankings for June were officially released.

In May, due to production capacity limits, Tianshu was only ranked 26th, but in June, it was just 329 units short of entering the top ten in sales.

However, being ranked 11th and delivering 12,800 units in June was already very remarkable.

Not to mention having hundreds of thousands of pre-orders, once the production capacity is fully unleashed, it might rival BYD [Qin] with over 30,000 monthly deliveries.

The reason for contacting Lu Liang was also crucial as he’s the hidden controller behind the Lou Shui New Energy Industrial Park.

On May 1st, in addition to hosting a new energy car expo, Su City also held a new energy parts suppliers expo.

On the 3rd, billions in cooperation orders were made, and with time, mass production began.

Saying Luo Shui is the largest new energy industry hub nationwide now is definitely not an exaggeration, it’s already an essential choice for any car manufacturer.

They contacted Lu Liang hoping he could introduce them to a few people, and if possible, also help connect with Su City’s government.

Although Su City doesn’t have an airport, since investing in the Lou Shui Industrial District, they are determined to make Su City a new energy technology city.

Initial successes have been seen, also starting to create a clustering effect for companies interested in entering the new energy industry.

After all, to deeply understand an industry, aside from investing in related fields, it’s also vital to delve into its central area.

And Su City is the heartland of new energy.

"Sure, sure, let me introduce you to Director Wu from the investment department."

All morning, Lu Liang dealt with phone calls, and just when things quieted down, Ningde Old Zeng called.

"Mr. Lu, do you think there’s a future in us developing prefabricated cars?" Old Zeng inquired.

Since the beginning of this year, the new energy market became more competitive, now lots of companies are thinking of joining.

Within Ningde Era, there’s also some restlessness, not content with just providing power batteries, not content with just being a supplier.

However, they know well that although BYD’s blade batteries are more efficient, everyone still prefers to cooperate with them for a reason.

Because they are not a complete vehicle manufacturer, everyone prefers to work with Ningde Era rather than BYD.

Ningde doesn’t plan to develop complete vehicles; they plan to develop a chassis platform system, allowing others to attach a car shell and use it directly, which is what he refers to as a prefabricated car.

Lu Liang is not only a shareholder of Ningde but also a non-executive director of the board and an investor, so it’s only right to inform him.

"As long as it can bring benefits to the company, I have no objections." Lu Liang couldn’t help but smile; Zeng Minqun, that old fox, was testing him again.

He was just assisting in the course of justice, helping Cheng Wei drive Liu Qing out of DiDi, does that warrant keeping a guard up against him like Zhang Yiming?

Lu, in the investment world, still has a good reputation.

"With your words, Mr. Lu, I feel relieved." Old Zeng smiled with squinted eyes, showing no embarrassment of having his little scheme exposed.

Soon after, ending the call with Zeng Minqun, Lu Liang picked up his phone to check Ningde Era’s market value, which had surpassed 400 billion.

"Is this the butterfly effect?"

Perhaps there’s no need to wait until May 2021; at the latest, possibly next year, Ningde Era could hit a trillion in market value.
