In recent years, South America has been vigorously supporting the field of new energy vehicles and motorcycles.

Among them, Brazil has even canceled import taxes on electric vehicles and fuel cells.

The reason is that South American countries lack sustainable projects for producing and selling electric vehicles, and can only reduce the price of electric vehicles through subsidies to foster early market development.

Aiya established its sales channel in Brazil a few years ago, heavily pushing sales of electric motorcycles in the country.

If Yiyang Automobile introduces Aiya as a shareholder, it could leverage Aiya's channels in Brazil to attempt to sell electric cars there.

Because Yiyang Automobile has already decided that the first batch of models will be extremely low-cost ride-hailing type electric energy cars, the price is unbelievably cheap, which is perfect for sales in countries like South America with lower consumption capabilities.

If we can open up the Brazilian market, the profits will be much higher than those ride-hailing orders under DiDi Chuxing.

"Alright." Chen Yiyang nodded directly after listening to Director Liu's remarks, "I'll call DiDi's people tomorrow to discuss the shareholder transfer."

The matter of Aiya taking over all of DiDi Chuxing's shares in Yiyang Automobile was quickly pushed forward.

On DiDi Chuxing's side, they are fully cooperating, and the takeover price offered by Aiya Electric Vehicle is not low.

So both sides quickly signed the contract and released the news externally.

In a private lounge of a villa in the Imperial Capital, the Wei and Liu families held a dinner gathering today.

"Brother Liu, I wrongly accused you before, I'll drink these three cups as a self-punishment."

Wei Yujun lifted his cup and drank three cups of wine right in front of Liu Chuanzhi.

After gulping down the three cups, Liu Chuanzhi then patted Wei Yujun's hand and said, "When you came to me last time, I suspected that this kid named Chen Yiyang couldn't get the car manufacturing qualification, and advised you to wait, but you didn't listen to me."

"Mainly because that kid was so infuriating. I didn't think much at that time."

Wei Yujun spoke while secretly resenting in his heart.

It's like playing hide and seek among foxes.

Last time he went to Liu Chuanzhi, it was clear that Liu Chuanzhi didn't open his mouth because he wanted to see if Chen Yiyang could get the car manufacturing qualification.

This point determined the energy limit of the people behind Chen Yiyang.

If Chen Yiyang really could get the manufacturing qualification, then Liu Chuanzhi, who had been keeping a low profile in recent years, wouldn't have said a peep and would have actively promoted cooperation with Yiyang Automobile.

The result is obvious now.

The higher-ups leaked the information that the manufacturing qualification would not be given to Yiyang Automobile.

Then this is simple.

Liu Chuanzhi went ahead and arranged for DiDi Chuxing to withdraw from Yiyang Automobile.

This resolution also aligns with the interests of other major shareholders of DiDi Chuxing, so they also agreed to the decision to withdraw.

"However, I originally thought that Chen Yiyang would directly take a bank loan to get those shares back.

Why did an electric motorcycle company from West Capital suddenly take over the shares?"

"Probably because his connections in West Capital helped him. He promised some benefits and tricked them into taking over the shares. When they're in trouble later, they'll face a fallout."

Liu Chuanzhi wasn't particularly concerned about the matter.

Just then, Liu Chuanzhi's daughter, Liu Qin, suddenly spoke up, "Dad, Uncle Wei, do you know about AI large models?"

"Of course, we aren't some old relics. This concept has been hot for a few years, hasn't the United States always been leading?"

Liu Chuanzhi looked at his daughter and asked, "What's going on, what happened?"

"It seems that a new AI large model company has emerged domestically. Their AI large model has gone viral online, it's called deepseek."

"Is it another domestic promotion stunt? Are they intentionally exaggerating to attract investment?" Liu Chuanzhi commented habitually.

Recently indeed, many companies in the country have been leveraging the AI large model trend, hyping up with marketing tactics, boasting their AI models as comparable to world-leading technology all in an effort to attract some gullible investors.

"It seems there's not much hype domestically, but there's a high level of discussion on foreign websites."

Liu Qin showed Liu Chuanzhi some discussions from foreign websites.

"Then they indeed have real technology?"

"Yes," Liu Qin continued, "so I'm thinking whether to invest a bit in this company."

"Well, you decide, such things probably don't require much initial investment," Liu Chuanzhi still didn't pay much attention.

Because in his business circles, no one yet was discussing this deepseek.

In fact, Chen Yiyang was also curious about this.

The headquarters of deepseek.

Chen Yiyang was sitting on the sofa chatting with Wen Liangfeng.

"Why is our model not generating any buzz domestically?"

"Didn't buy marketing accounts," Wen Liangfeng joked.

He also knew some domestic large model companies just start promoting with paid articles even before their technology is solid.

However, the reason deepseek didn't catch on domestically was quite complex.

On the one hand, on most domestic social media platforms, getting into hot searches requires paying the platform, deepseek didn't pay, so naturally it lacks buzz.

On the other hand, previously many large domestic companies announced the development of their own large models.

These big companies are top tech companies in the country, yet their AI large model technology is built on foreign top-tier hardware.

This means domestic large model technology is restricted by foreign equipment. No matter how these big companies boast about their technology, it's always subject to foreign equipment limitations.

Until this point is resolved, most people lack confidence in domestic AI large model technology surpassing the United States.

So amid these factors, the low-profile small company deepseek hasn't drawn much attention domestically.

But reputation can rely on hype, whereas strength doesn't lie.

"Our software has almost reached the number one download spot abroad. The discussion forums are also buzzing, don't worry too much about the buzz, we'll be famous domestically eventually."

"I'm not worried about the buzz, I'm thinking about when to enter the Imperial Capital."

"Why go to the Imperial Capital?" Wen Liangfeng looked at Chen Yiyang in surprise.

After taking over Chen Yiyang's investment in the United States, Wen Liangfeng had been focused on tinkering with his large model technology, without following Chen Yiyang's latest news.

"Go to bring the core R&D team from the Imperial Capital to Lin'an," Chen Yiyang laughed.

On the surface, deepseek is a Lin'an enterprise, its headquarters is also in Lin'an.

Deepseek has more than one hundred staff, more than half of whom come from Peking University.

So initially for the convenience of staff, deepseek's core R&D team set up a branch in Beijing City.

Chen Yiyang jokingly suggested relocating this branch from Imperial to Lin'an.

Because the most valuable assets of deepseek are these hundred-and-something staff, the company is certainly there to serve the staff and wouldn't force them to relocate to another city.

But it doesn't matter, others don't know this.

Chen Yiyang just needs to let Beijing City know he has this intention.

Of course, this all hinges on deepseek's epoch-making large model fully exploding globally.

And this moment will soon arrive.
