If you cheat, money will follow

Faced with criticism and doubts from North American media, the fruit company did not respond.

On the contrary, Musk, who has not been seen for a long time, expressed his views on Cook's visit to China to negotiate and seek support on Twitter.

He believed: "Mr. Cook made a correct and rational choice. If it were me, I would do the same."

When it comes to North American media saying that he is pro-China and that he is a Chinese wearing North American skin, Musk generously admits:

"That's right, I am pro-China."

"I even doubted whether I had Chinese ancestry. My mother once told me that her ancestors might come from China."

"I think it's a compliment. China is very nice, the people in China are very welcoming and there's a lot of positive energy there."

Well, Musk has enough standing to do this, say this, and think this.

Because Tesla relies on the strength of China's new energy industry chain to market globally.

At this time, the stock price reached US$280 per share, and the market value exceeded US$9000 billion.

His personal worth has also surged with Tesla's stock price, rising to US$2000 billion.

Happy?

For him, the so-called market value of the stock market means nothing.

He's all cash and prime assets.

End of the second day of talks.

Fruit posted an announcement on its official website.

The announcement announced that Guoguo has received technical authorization from the Lingxi architecture of Leda Investment Pingtouge Research Institute and will develop a new carbon-based A-series chip based on the Lingxi architecture.

On the same day, Fruit's share price surged 5%, closing at US$68.25 per share, with a market value of US$45 million.

One announcement, worth $500 billion.

After Fruit’s announcement, many big bosses in North America couldn’t sit still.

They frequently went to the White House to put pressure on the President, asking him to arrange a visit to China as soon as possible.

However, this is not possible in advance.

Because the German Chancellor is currently conducting a state visit to China.

The German Chancellor arrived in China the day before.

Also coming were executives from Daimler, Porsche, BMW, Schaeffler, BASF, Deutsche Bank and other companies.

During a high-level meeting...

Senior leaders said: "The world economy is currently facing downward pressure, and protectionism and unilateralism continue to rise..."

"The two countries should strengthen strategic communication and cooperation and maintain the healthy and stable development of bilateral relations, which will not only further consolidate the relations between the two countries, but also contribute to world peace, stability and prosperity."

The leader also emphasized: “The two countries should grasp the general trend of the world and safeguard multilateralism and the free trade system with the World Trade Organization as its core.”

"Adhere to the concept of openness and inclusiveness and expand two-way market opening."

"Our direction of proactively expanding market opening will not change, nor will our policy of welcoming foreign investment, and we will further strengthen intellectual property protection."

"We are willing to deepen cooperation with Germany in fields such as autonomous driving, technological innovation, and artificial intelligence."

The German Chancellor said: "I am very happy to visit for the 12th time... China has made great development achievements in the past few decades..."

"Especially after joining the World Trade Organization, we have had close trade exchanges with other countries around the world and achieved mutual benefit and win-win results."

She emphasized: "The cooperation between the two countries is very extensive, the bilateral relations are constantly expanding, and both countries support multilateralism and free trade."

"We are willing to strengthen cooperation with China in new materials, semiconductors, automobile manufacturing and other fields...Germany also welcomes Chinese companies to invest in Germany as always."

After the trip to Beijing, the German Chancellor led the team to Jiangzhou.

When we arrived in Jiangzhou, our first stop was Leda Investment Company.

After a cordial meeting and talk with Chang Le, the two took a group photo by the Jingjiang River with great interest.

The picture of the two of them is cordial and warm.

Rather than a show with strong political overtones, it is better to say it is a "family photo" between the elders and younger generations.

This group photo spread through the accompanying German media and aroused the imagination of the whole world.

Well, the German goal was achieved.

What signal is conveyed in this?

After visiting Leda Investment, she went to Leda Automobile to visit the production line that was intelligent enough.

The level of intelligent operation of the production line supported by artificial intelligence technology has amazed many German corporate giants.

The next day, she chose to have a cordial exchange with 300 teachers and students in the Academic Exchange Hall of Jiangsu University.

For nearly an hour, she answered questions from teachers and students one by one and delivered a speech.

"China is already a global technology and manufacturing center and shoulders major global responsibilities."

"Only by strengthening international cooperation can we continue to be successful."

"Beautiful environment, interesting work, and a better life for the younger generation to live and work in peace and contentment are not only China's wish, but also Germany's wish."

"Therefore, we need more multilateral cooperation than ever before, not unilateralism. We need to cooperate, not go it alone!"

At the same time, she also pointed out: "China is Germany's largest trading partner..."

"China has made great achievements in development in recent years, and Germany is very happy to share this development achievement."

“Chinese enterprises and Chinese students are very welcome to invest, work, study and exchange in Germany.”

The German Chancellor's visit to China has achieved fruitful results.

Whether it's China or Germany, it's the same.

For example: Global chemical giant BASF invested US$100 billion to build a wholly-owned integrated fine chemical base in Pengcheng.

BMW and Goose Factory signed the "Memorandum of Cooperation in the Field of Intelligent Networked Vehicles" in Pengcheng.

The two parties will promote technological innovation and industrialization of smart cars and cooperate in fields such as autonomous driving, data connection, wireless communications, smart cities, and information security.

In short, BMW took a fancy to the infotainment system installed on Leda cars by Goose Factory, and they wanted to install this system on their own cars.

Another example: Sturgoth GmbH, a subsidiary of Deutsche Post AG, signed a memorandum of cooperation with Cheery.

The two parties will invest 5 million euros to establish a joint venture company and joint venture factory in China, and establish a research and development center to mainly develop, produce and sell electric light commercial vehicles.

The commercial logistics vehicles produced by the joint venture will be mainly used for the logistics services of Deutsche Post AG.

Another example: Jiangnan Provincial Government signed an investment agreement with Schaeffler.

The latter will build another supporting factory and a research and development center in Jiangzhou.

The factory aims to provide supporting services in autonomous driving for Leda Automobile and Tesla.

The R&D center will focus on technological research and development of smart vehicles.

The CEO of Schaeffler's Automotive OEM Service Department said: "China is Schaeffler's most important market, bar none."

Schaeffler has no choice.

Whether it is Leda Automobile or Tesla, only Chinese companies or foreign-funded companies that invest and build factories in China can enter their supply chains.

The former is a hard condition and an unspoken rule;

The latter is a contractual agreement and a clear rule.

The above are already very important, and the signals released are very clear.

Then, more important news came.

Rongzhou.

Yu Chengdong, on behalf of Leda Automobile, signed a cooperation agreement with Porsche CEO Blum.

The two parties will establish a new joint venture in Rongzhou: Leda Porsche.

The joint venture will invest US$20 billion to build a new modern smart factory in Rongzhou.

The factory mainly produces Porsche luxury cars, such as best-selling models such as Panamera, Macan, and Cayenne, as well as models such as 718, 911, and Taycan.

Yu Chengdong told reporters: "Cooperating with Porsche is a strategic choice made under the new situation."

"We chose to build the factory in Rongzhou because Rongzhou is a city that dares to think, dare to do, is cheerful and open, and is livable and suitable for business."

"We are looking forward to this cooperation and there is a bright future ahead."

Bloom said: "Leda Auto is a technology leader in the global automobile manufacturing field, and cooperation with it will bring unprecedented new experiences."

"It will also help Porsche take deeper roots in China and provide better services to Chinese consumers."

"The new factory has a production capacity of 5 vehicles per year and is expected to be put into production in 2021."

"Porsche will provide more competitive prices to meet the needs of consumers in China and around the world."

Deputy Secretary W of Xichuan City and Secretary W of Rongzhou City Chang Xueqin attended the signing ceremony.

He said: "Those who share the same goals are not far away from mountains and seas."

"We invite each other with sincerity, attract each other with sincerity, and give each other with sincerity... we use good resources to gather good projects, and use good projects to negotiate good cooperation..."

"We will sincerely regard the company's affairs as our own, serve the company with all our strength, create a pro-Qing government-business relationship, and ensure that the company travels lightly and concentrates on operations..."

"Achieve corporate prosperity and Rongzhou development, and work together to write a new and brilliant chapter in the new era and new journey."
