"Tesla’s original equity..."

Lu Liang’s fingertips rhythmically tapped on the desktop, appearing calm on the surface, but in reality, he was elated.

JPMorgan Chase is really willing to part with it. In order to protect themselves, they are even ready to sell out their third-generation technology banner reserves.

"What kind of assistance do you hope I can provide?" Lu Liang pondered for a moment and agreed to Wilson’s proposed terms.

He also understood that once Tesla breaks through in the electric car market, becoming the United States’ third-generation technology banner after Microsoft and Apple.

At that point, it would inevitably become extremely difficult for him to acquire it, and political forces might even openly intervene to stop him.

But Lu Liang didn’t care.

Because doing business is about propriety and legitimacy.

If he acquires Tesla in a legitimate manner and faces political opposition, it will become a blemish that Tesla can never erase.

Just like the Jade Emperor in the TV version of Journey to the West, who holds a very high status in Taoism, ruling over the divine world, yet he was once defeated by a monkey.

Even though he governs the Heavenly Gods, Earth Spirits, Human Ghosts, the three realms, the ten directions, the four births, and the six paths, his image is no different from an earthly emperor, he was still defeated by a monkey.

As the saying goes, better to lose the person than lose the battle.

If this happens, it will become a point of contention that Tesla’s fans can never refute.

Just like the Liu family after the voting scandal, whenever someone attempts to defend them online, they are immediately labeled with rare tags.

Even a family that’s been operating for three generations faces such issues, let alone Tesla, which has been in the domestic market for less than three years.

Lu Liang would crush it completely, even if it meant throwing away equity worth 15 billion dollars, he would do so without hesitation.

"Invest in Tianxing Investment." Wilson replied.

They have investigated deeply, although Tianxing Investment is currently only active in the entertainment industry, it is the foundation of Lu Liang.

It’s also the only company he wholly owns, connected with Tianxing Technology, Tianxing Public Offering, Tianxing Private Equity, Tianxing Automobile, and even Xingheng Investment in Neon.

Although it doesn’t have savings and loan-related businesses, Tianxing Investment already possesses the conditions to become a multinational conglomerate.

According to their analysis, Lu Liang will eventually step into the investment banking sector, and once JPMorgan Chase invests, it can aid him in this area.

"That’s the first condition."

Wilson said, as a smile played on Lu Liang’s lips, "What’s the second condition? Tell me the third and fourth ones as well."

"We only have two conditions."

Wilson naturally heard the sarcasm, but negotiations are about asking for the sky and settling for less.

Lu Liang nodded, "Speak."

"We heard that Tianxing is partnering with Huanfang to establish Tianxing Quantitative, specializing in international market quantitative trading?"

"Your sources are well-informed." Lu Liang nodded with a smile.

"We want a subscription share of 30 billion dollars."

As Huanfang Technology enters the international market for the first time, JPMorgan Chase is clearer than most about the power of the Firefly No.1 AI algorithm.

Moreover, they know that Huanfang was previously active only in the A-shares market, and has just been established for three years, spending one year in research, two years for one billion, and three years expanding to thirty billion in scale.

In the A-shares market!

This market, where even BlackRock and Vanguard find themselves slapped and eventually forced to exit at a loss.

Showed remarkable brilliance fresh out of the gate.

Therefore, JPMorgan Chase has reason to believe that Firefly No.1 still has room for improvement, possibly soon to completely surpass Blackstone Fund’s ’Halley Comet’ AI model.

In quantitative models, the gap between the first and second is vast, often like the difference between humans and pigs.

JPMorgan is willing to gamble another 30 billion to minimize losses, before the Q3 report disclosure.

These two conditions, Wilson had thought over them for thirteen hours on the plane.

The first condition is full of imagination and can meet the market’s psychological expectations for good stories.

If Tianxing successfully becomes a multinational conglomerate and JPMorgan Chase remains the only investment bank involved.

Lu Liang, Tianxing, and JPMorgan Chase—this combination’s market explosiveness will definitely be greater than 1+1+1.

The first condition speaks to future expectations, while the second condition addresses the present.

There are two and a half months left until the end of September and the third quarter, plenty of time for Tianxing Quantitative to show some results and give him a reasonable explanation to investors.

If these two matters can proceed smoothly, JPMorgan Chase has a great chance of safely navigating through this crisis.

"Just these two conditions?"

Seeing Wilson nod, Lu Liang retracted his smile, his face calm, "The first condition is impossible because Tianxing Investment is not ready psychologically to welcome shareholders."

He isn’t sure how long he can act decisively on his own, but if there is a time limit, he hopes it’s forever, at least for now, it’s not necessary to bring in shareholders.

"Only a symbolic holding of 10% would do, Lu, perhaps you should listen to our offer first."

Wilson hurriedly said, but Lu Liang couldn’t tell if he was genuinely anxious or pretending to be, while actually planning to withdraw to advance, proposing new conditions.

However, Lu Liang would not give him the chance to propose new terms, waving his hand, "This matter isn’t negotiable, I’m not interested in your offer either."

Suddenly, a smile reappeared on Lu Liang’s face, "However, we can consider a different way of collaborating."

"What kind of collaboration?"

Wilson’s brow furrowed, he actually anticipated Lu Liang wouldn’t agree and had prepared new exchange conditions, but he did not expect Lu Liang to have a backup plan of his own.
