In the evening, returning to the hotel, Chen Yiyang made a phone call to Zhao Feipeng.
"I've found a talent in the automotive industry here, Wang Fengyi, do you know her?"
"I've heard of her name."
Wang Fengyi is quite well-known in the automotive circles, so Zhao Feipeng naturally has heard of her, but their fields are different, so they haven't had much interaction.
"Regarding the matter of taking over Fei Peng Automobile shares, I have an additional request now, which is that my voting rights can remain unchanged, but I want Wang Fengyi to be the president of Fei Peng Automobile."
After Chen Yiyang said this, Zhao Feipeng remained silent for a long time, then asked with three words, "Why is that?"
Chen Yiyang briefly explained Wang Fengyi's previous evaluation of Fei Peng Automobile.
"Can I make a call to her?"
"She's right next to me now, I'll let her call you."
Chen Yiyang gave Zhao Feipeng's number to Wang Fengyi, who then began to speak with Zhao Feipeng while Chen Yiyang listened by the side.
Wang Fengyi immediately asked Zhao Feipeng for some internal data of Fei Peng Automobile. Zhao Feipeng didn't refuse, he directly found someone to get the data and read it over the phone to Wang Fengyi.
After listening, Wang Fengyi said directly, "Fei Peng Automobile's issues aren't just with the product; the company's control over car costs is capricious and crude.
Whether it's new electric vehicles or traditional oil-fueled cars, all car manufacturers heavily rely on controlling automotive costs.
Manufacturing is inherently a high-cost, low-profit industry. The better cost control is, the more the company can survive.
I just heard some of Fei Peng Automobile's cost prices, just the seat alone, I dare say if following the normal market price, a single seat can be at least twelve hundred yuan cheaper.
If optimized throughout, the cost for a whole Fei Peng Automobile car can be reduced by at least ten percent."
"Come to Yangcheng, let's discuss face to face." After listening, Zhao Feipeng directly invited Wang Fengyi.
He really needed someone like Wang Fengyi who understands the market.
He entered the automotive industry because he was optimistic about it.
But he himself doesn't understand car manufacturing. His strength lies in building teams for smart driving.
He is aware of some corruption issues within the company.
But he always thought it was just small-scale corruption.
Unexpectedly, corruption has escalated to the point where the cost of a car has increased by over ten percent.
Considering Fei Peng sells a car with estimated profits not even reaching ten percent.
It's like everyone in the company, including him, the boss, has been working for the small corrupt group within the company.
When the company goes under, he'll probably have less cash in hand than the cash held by the purchasing management team.
"Alright." Wang Fengyi responded crisply, "I can go to Yangcheng tomorrow."
"Wait a minute." Chen Yiyang restrained Wang Fengyi.
"What's the issue, Mr. Chen."
"You need to go to Yangcheng a few days later." Chen Yiyang directly called his team in Lin'an to start coordinating with Ali's side, initiating the process to purchase Fei Peng Automobile shares from Ali.
"I can't give you Fei Peng Automobile shares, but I can let you hold my shares instead, granting you the voting rights from my shares."
Chen Yiyang realized that Wang Fengyi indeed has the capability.
She might actually manage to save Fei Peng Automobile.
After all, she's a certified top talent recognized for spotting bargains.
Given this, there's no rush to let Wang Fengyi meet Zhao Feipeng.
If news of their meeting leaks.
It's not that Ali wouldn't sell the shares anymore, but it might lead some people to raise the share price of Fei Peng Automobile, affecting Chen Yiyang's acquisition.
Of course, Chen Yiyang also needs to offer Wang Fengyi some perks to gain her favor.
"I can personally lend you a sum of money interest-free to help you buy about one percent of Fei Peng Automobile shares. If Fei Peng Automobile's stock appreciates in value in the future, you can repay me. If Fei Peng Automobile's market value drops, you won't have to pay it back."
Chen Yiyang's proposal is quite tempting for Wang Fengyi.
She spent many years at Changcheng Automobile and was eventually kicked out because she held no shares.
Even just one percent of Fei Peng Automobile shares is worth several billion.
Currently, she definitely can't afford it.
Chen Yiyang's willingness to lend money interest-free to her is also a form of acknowledgment. If she can join Fei Peng Automobile and truly save it.
Then that one percent of shares can at least appreciate multiple times, and she can sell a portion of the shares to repay the loan.
"Alright, Mr. Chen, I'll go to Mr. Zhao's after a few days."
The certified talent for spotting bargains, personally verified, Chen Yiyang believes Wang Fengyi is worth lending a few billion to win over.
This way, even if Fei Peng Automobile turns around in the future, he, as a shareholder, will have allies within the company and influence.
From Wang Fengyi's situation of being kicked out after thirty years at her previous company.
It shows that Wang Fengyi's character is trustworthy, and his gesture can make gains as long as the other party accepts it.
Of course, the key now is to quickly buy the shares from Ali.
Chen Yiyang didn't expect that this business deal originally meant to save face for Zhang Yuling, would actually come to fruition.
Besides the ten percent shares held by Ali, several small shareholders of Fei Peng Automobile also wish to sell their shares.
Chen Yiyang calculated, apart from lending the money to Wang Fengyi, he needs at least two billion in cash plus some other assets.
He has several cash cows at hand, and two billion in cash can be gathered.
But he needs to complement this with some other assets to purchase Fei Peng Automobile shares.
He found a solution.
Chen Yiyang thought of the movie recently released by Shen Teng.
If the box office performance of the movie is decent in the coming days, he can package the future revenue sharing from the movie as an asset to exchange for Fei Peng Automobile shares with others.
Anticipating revenue sharing from the movie is quite normal.
After all, a movie's screening lasts more than a month.
After finishing the screening, various parties need a long time for settlement.
Only then can the final revenue sharing be allocated to the investors.
At most, it might require waiting a year.
At the minimum, a few months.
Therefore, people in the film industry are accustomed to pledging future revenue sharing at banks for loans, converting it into cash to quickly invest in the next movie.
Packaging these future revenue shares makes it quite a premium asset, just second to cash.
This decision doesn't require notification to other movie investors.
But Chen Yiyang planned to meet Shen Teng the next day to casually mention this.
So, the next day, Chen Yiyang called Shen Teng, saying he had time to get together.
