Inside a private club in West Capital City, seven or eight businessmen were chatting while sipping tea.

"Mr. Liu, how are those all-terrain vehicles from your factory selling in Russia? I see they're being shipped out batch by batch lately."

"Looks like you're out of touch, huh?"

The chairman of Aiya Electric Vehicle, Chairman Liu, hadn't even replied when another person chimed in, "Their all-terrain vehicles are making headlines on the battlefield, and you're asking about sales figures?"

"Don't spread rumors," Chairman Liu quickly said, "I only sell parts, never complete vehicles. Those vehicles aren't made by me."

Of course, although Chairman Liu strongly denied it, everyone present was astute enough to understand the situation.

So a few people complimented Chairman Liu and then shifted the topic to car manufacturing.

"Wasn't Mr. Liu planning to enter the new energy vehicle industry? How's that going now?"

"Manufacturing cars is too difficult; it requires a lot of capital, and getting a car manufacturing license is complicated," Chairman Liu sighed. "But I do know someone who started their own car factory; I have no idea how they got the manufacturing license, and I didn't dare to ask."

"Who is it?"

"It's Yiyang Automobile, which was reported in the news a few days ago."

"Mr. Liu, you might not know yet, but Yiyang Automobile is almost a joke now."

"What's going on?" Chairman Liu had been busy with factory matters and hadn't paid much attention to the news.

"That Yiyang Automobile Factory created a huge hype, making people think they would get the manufacturing license, but now it's been hinted from above that no licenses will be issued. Rice got a special passage treatment, but for other factories, it's impossible to get a manufacturing license or even find a contract manufacturer."

"I also heard that DiDi Chuxing had initially invested in Yiyang Automobile Factory, but now that Yiyang Automobile can't get the manufacturing license, they want to pull out."

"Is that so?" Upon hearing this, Chairman Liu suddenly had some ideas.

He immediately stood up and said, "I have some matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving first."

After leaving the private room, Chairman Liu directly booked a flight to Lin'an.

That night, Chairman Liu arrived in Lin'an and called Chen Yiyang, arranging to meet at Chen's home.

"Old Liu, what brings you to Lin'an all of a sudden?"

In the Lin'an villa, Chen Yiyang welcomed Chairman Liu.

"We've known each other for a long time." Chairman Liu sat by the tea table, thanking the small accountant for pouring tea, and said, "I'll get straight to the point."

"Old Liu, we're friends, feel free to speak your mind." Chen Yiyang still didn't understand why Chairman Liu came over.

"I heard that one of your shareholders wants to withdraw from Yiyang Automobile?"

"Yes, that's true." Chen Yiyang nodded.

Ever since it was hinted that no manufacturing license would be issued, Chen Yiyang hadn't communicated with the other shareholders yet, and DiDi Chuxing suddenly wanted to withdraw.

The reason for the withdrawal is Yiyang Automobile's ongoing struggle to solve the license issue. If the pullout isn't accepted, DiDi intends to sue Yiyang Automobile for fraud.

It's not really a secret in the industry.

The main issue is DiDi is quite nervous lately, having just managed to offload the cumbersome Da Vinci Car. If Yiyang Automobile fails to get the license, it would mean taking on an even bigger burden.

So as soon as they heard Yiyang Automobile wouldn't be obtaining the license, DiDi Chuxing immediately sent someone over, hoping to withdraw their shares in exchange for cash.

In other words, Chen Yiyang would have to pay the full amount for acquiring Da Vinci Car himself.

This indeed left Chen Yiyang in a bit of a bind.

For some reasons, he wasn't planning to reveal his comeback funds to DiDi Chuxing just yet.

But if DiDi insisted on withdrawing, he couldn't gather enough cash to compensate them immediately.

However, Chen Yiyang was curious why Chairman Liu suddenly brought this up.

"My Aiya Electric Vehicle is interested in taking over DiDi Chuxing's shares in Yiyang Automobile." Chairman Liu suddenly said something that surprised Chen Yiyang.

"Why?" Chen Yiyang was taken aback.

From the outside, it seemed certain that Yiyang Automobile wouldn't get the license.

Taking over Yiyang Automobile's shares now would be purely a loss, wouldn't it?

"I've always had a dream of building cars. Since I can't make them myself, I think investing in a car company is also good."

"Aren't you afraid I won't get the license?"

"I believe you will get it," Chairman Liu said to Chen Yiyang with great confidence.

Chairman Liu's sudden proposal to take over DiDi Chuxing's shares in Yiyang Automobile wasn't out of mere goodwill.

Businessmen don't have such sentiments.

It was a judgment made after careful consideration.

When Chairman Liu first met Chen Yiyang, Chen was just a small businessman.

Now, in a relatively short time, Chen Yiyang's publicly known assets have reached billions.

And he's directly entering the car manufacturing industry.

Whether Chen Yiyang started from scratch or represents some hidden capital.

Just based on this rapid accumulation of wealth and complex network.

Chairman Liu was confident that this license issue wouldn't hold Chen Yiyang back for long.

Even if Chen Yiyang truly couldn't get the license.

He believed that by investing billions, Chen Yiyang would feel indebted to him.

If there are other business opportunities in the future, Chen Yiyang would make up for this favor.

Chairman Liu viewed taking over Yiyang Automobile's shares not as a loss but as an excellent business opportunity.

"If Yiyang Automobile gets the license, this investment is a real steal. If not, I'm willing to accept the risk."

Chairman Liu spoke so straightforwardly.

It even moved Chen Yiyang a bit.

However, sticking to business principles, Chen Yiyang continued.

"The reason for initially bringing in DiDi Chuxing, apart from saving on the cost of acquiring Da Vinci Car Factory, was that DiDi Chuxing could provide a large number of orders for the future Yiyang Automobile.

Now that DiDi Chuxing wants out of Yiyang Automobile, can Aiya Electric Vehicle provide orders for Yiyang Automobile in the future?"

Chen Yiyang's requirements weren't high.

Because bringing in DiDi Chuxing initially had considered this aspect.

Although DiDi Chuxing's withdrawal wouldn't affect their initial batch of orders for Yiyang Automobile.

But for subsequent orders, Yiyang Automobile would have to find its own way.

"Aiya has been in West Capital for many years, and we do have some connections." Chairman Liu smiled mysteriously and continued, "Plus, we have a special cooperation channel."

"What channel?"

"South America, Brazil."
