People in the Republic of China era began to rise from industry.

Lin Yi hadn't originally intended to push things forward so quickly regarding car manufacturing.

This isn't something that can be accomplished simply by having blueprints.

Without a strong industrial base and a large number of skilled workers, rushing into car manufacturing would only lead to following in Zhang Xiaoliu's footsteps.

Not only do core components have to be imported, but most other parts with slightly higher technical content also rely entirely on foreign purchases.

It's not difficult to assemble a few prototype vehicles according to the blueprints.

However, once mass production begins, the persistently high procurement costs mean that the product will have virtually no market competitiveness.

According to Lin Yi's previous considerations, Fenghua Textile Equipment Factory was a training base.

Starting with the production of textile equipment, it gradually expanded into the equipment manufacturing industry.

While consolidating the foundation, we also train skilled workers.

Having two years to accumulate experience before venturing into the car manufacturing industry, which integrates a large number of technologies, is more likely to be successful.

Especially since he possesses a system.

If we were to use the technology obtained from the system upgrade to build cars at this point, not only would we be unable to manufacture the necessary key components ourselves, but we might also be unable to find anywhere to buy them.

As for providing the technology and having foreign companies manufacture the products, that can indeed solve the cost problem.

But all he wanted was to be the other person's father and receive their support.

I never thought of treating him like my own son!

He's building cars hoping to conquer overseas markets with their superior performance, so how could he possibly be handing ammunition to his competitors?

However, times have changed, and he did not expect that Wynn's price war would lead to a series of subsequent events.

Previously, the only consideration was to use bank leverage to expand the industry like a snowball, taking one step at a time.

But now that we have so much money that it's practically idle, it's not impossible to take a big step forward.

The system is responsible for resolving technical issues.

What he had to do was to organize the necessary production equipment and technical personnel.

In terms of income and expenditure, there must have been huge losses in the early stages.

He couldn't afford to lose money before.

If he dared to do that, Song Wenchang's raised sickle would surely strike his carotid artery accurately.

But now he can afford to lose money.

And the time saved has many benefits in the long run...

I acted on my idea immediately, and the first thing I needed to do was to collect a bunch of system rewards.

He now only has one system ability left.

It was used on an air conditioner the previous time.

For the remaining round, Changyi's rubber technology has already been reserved.

To get involved in the car manufacturing industry, they need to secure new incentives.

So the next day, Fan Zhongxu boarded a plane and hurriedly flew back to Shanghai.

Fang Chang also came back with them.

"Was the journey smooth?"

"It went very smoothly; I only had to refuel in Hanyang."

After saying that, Fan Zhongxu laughed and joked, "Mr. Lin, you've studied abroad, so why are you acting like an old scholar, always worried that the plane will crash?"

"You should trust current technology. The plane won't crash. There are now air routes from Hong Kong to the United States."

Lin Yi smiled but didn't respond.

He must be crazy to believe in current aircraft technology.

A wise man does not stand under a dangerous wall. Although he is not a wise man, he will never do anything that could lead to his humiliating death!

"One thing: a share swap."

“Give me 10% of Yongli’s shares. After the merger of Fenghua Metallurgy and Sichuan Steel Plant, including the management shares, you will hold 12% of the shares.”

Lin Yi got straight to the point.

He had calculated it all. Considering the current investment and the market size of both companies, Fan Zhongxu was at a slight disadvantage in this exchange.

However, in terms of growth potential, he can still make a profit.

A compromise is the most appropriate.

"Mr. Lin, you're being too kind to me."

Fan Zhongxu chuckled.

He's a seasoned veteran in the steel industry; he can calculate the profits involved in the blink of an eye.

"I have always taken care of my friends."

Lin Yi said, "Since you have no objections, let Downs draft the agreement, and we'll sign it later."

"it is good."

Fan Zhongxu was unusually unpretentious.

Having spent a long time with Lin Yi, he knew that the man meant what he said.

Having quickly settled this important matter, Lin Yi turned to look at Fang Chang, who was sitting on the sofa without saying a word.

"Old Fang, are you in trouble?"

Fang Chang raised his eyelids: "There are too many people, it's very troublesome to manage them."

"You should find someone else to handle things at the mine."

"You guys chat, I'll head back to Wynn first."

The fact that Lin Yi was training the mine protection team on the mine was considered semi-public knowledge within their small group.

However, Fan Zhongxu, who had been to the mine, could sense that this mine protection team was not simple.

When he was mining, there was also a mine protection team.

But that's just to carry a gun and prevent people from illegally mining.

But Lin Yi's mine protection team is large in number, and its main task is to conduct training every day.

They were even more hardworking than the military.

This kind of neglect of his duties is bound to make him think.

After watching Fan Zhongxu leave, Lin Yi crossed his legs on the sofa and looked at Fang Chang with great interest: "Tell me more about it."

He was genuinely curious that Fang Chang could back down.

"There's not much to say, it's just that there are too many people, making management very troublesome."

"I killed two troublemakers, but it didn't have a very good effect."

"I don't know if you've ever experienced this, but when someone wants to kill you, you can actually sense it."

"I've been there!"

Lin Yi answered very affirmatively.

He could clearly feel Sheng Aiyi's intention to kill him.

"You just understand."

"But I can't just kill them all, it's just a lot of trouble."

Fang Chang's expression subtly revealed a hint of distress.

Lin Yi understood.

This guy is a good instructor, but management isn't his forte.

This is not apparent when there are few people.

However, with a large number of subordinates, Fang Chang's shortcomings in management became glaringly obvious.

He habitually uses his own methods to solve problems and intimidate others.

It did have an effect in the short term.

But the opposing sentiments were rapidly brewing within.

If this isn't resolved, something serious will happen sooner or later.

Either Fang Chang kills all the people who hate him, or he gets shot in the back.

He sensed it and decisively chose to let go to prevent things from getting out of control.

From Lin Yi's perspective, doing this would be in his best interest.

It's clear that Lao Fang truly considers him one of his own, as he can even endure such grievances.

"It's good that you're back. A lot of people have been trying to kill me lately. I was even considering whether to invite you back."

"Really?"

Fang Chang glanced at him.

He suspected that Lin Yi was trying to save face for himself.

"Of course it's true. Didn't you see how many cars are parked downstairs?"

"They were all bodyguards."

"I was originally planning to double the staff in the next few days."

"Now that you're back, I can finally relax."

Hearing this, Fang Chang smiled with narrowed eyes: "Offense is the best defense. If someone wants to kill you, I'll kill him first."

"There are too many people, let's talk about this later."

Lin Yi waved his hand: "Make a list first, who are the people who want to shoot you in the back?"

"When you get someone else to take your place, deal with them first."

His military company doesn't need troublemakers.

Especially with a change of commander, failing to eliminate these individuals will only embolden them further.

It might even develop into a small clique.

For legitimate companies, they can be fired.

However, there are only two ways for such armed forces to withdraw.

Either retire honorably or die.
