Chapter 578: Chapter 572: Everyone Gives Their Best

These competitive forces worldwide would inevitably shrink the market share of the major car manufacturers in Belmare Country. So what Finn Lewis is doing is certainly cruel. Today is the third day since the official announcement of the bailout in Belmare Country. And such an announcement from Finn will undoubtedly cause the stocks of the major car dealers, which had just stabilized in the Belmare stock market, to fall again, even if they have other marketplaces to compensate for their loss.

The news that the first authorized automaker would gain an absolute advantage is a bit different from the situation in the North Federation, where Tesla Mitchell’s car sales company produces electric vehicles. Although Tesla’s cars can also reach a driving range of 500 kilometers, their price is not low either, costing around 700,000. On the other hand, Finn’s aim is just to replace the power system, and the prices of other parts will not change, but many more advanced and convenient designs will be added.

Moreover, there is a big difference between 500 kilometers and 1,000 kilometers. Firstly, while 500 kilometers might sound impressive, it’s somewhat insufficient for long-distance driving. There seems to be some awkwardness when you need to take a break after 500 kilometers. After all, if you follow the speed limit on the highway, that’s a 6-hour journey. That seems too soon. If you don’t stop, your battery will run out, and charging won’t be as convenient before the coverage of charging stations gets better.

But 1,000 kilometers is different. To cover this distance, it would take almost 12 hours even on a high-speed highway all the way. No one can drive that long, so they will definitely need to stop for a rest, which is when they can charge the car. And if the journey does not take so long, even better. You’ve already reached your destination, right?

Once Finn finished speaking, the CEO of Flying Horse, David Lancaster, and the CEO of Bavarian Machinery Manufacturing, quickly went on stage to confirm what Finn had said. People in the country who had recently developed the habit of watching all kinds of press conferences now seemed to be rushing to spread the news.

“I was thinking about buying a car recently. Now I suddenly feel, that I was indeed awesome for not making a move. I’ve decided to wait for Mr. Finn’s new energy car to come out, the 1000 kilometer range electric car. Even if there is no charging station, it’s actually usable. Because there are hardly any instances when you would drive 1000 kilometers without resting, right?”

“Haha, now both Flying Horse and Eldora can be considered domestic. They are not like joint ventures such as Brilliance Eldora.”

“Damn, I’ve always said Mr. Finn is awesome. What kind of efficiency is this? If I remember correctly, Mr. Finn only went to Graham Kingdom four days ago, right? Damn, I checked online, and indeed, it was four days ago. Excluding the travel time, it means they acquired two companies within three days. Previous news reported that mergers and acquisitions worth billions of federal coins would take half a year to a year. Why was this so fast? Can someone clarify this to me?”

“The only thing I can tell you is that those companies did not meet the Prodigal. When others buy things, they’ll ask for a discount from the boss. But when the Prodigal buys things, he will offer to pay ten percent more to the boss and urge him to pack quickly because he earns and spends millions every minute and urges not to waste his time.”

“Isn’t it an underestimation when you say he makes millions every minute? I think it should be close to or maybe even more than tens of millions. But, I must give a like to Prodigal. I thought I would never get the chance to drive a Cadillac in my life. Now, there might be a chance for me to buy one.”

“Haha, I suddenly feel that the Beckham Ocean Kingdom is tragic. Mr. Finn’s capriciousness can be defined as ‘I will beat you to death with money’.”

The press conference held jointly by the three companies under Finn Lewis’s name, yes, we can say that now, has caused a strong response both domestically and internationally. For those who are preparing to buy or have already bought cars in this country, this is good news because even for those who have bought cars, their maintenance costs and other fees will decrease.

With Finn’s current status, even if he chooses to live in a dilapidated house, people would probably say he has style rather than making other comments. However, the main issue is that Finn’s villa can’t accommodate so many people, so he had to use Mr. M’s villa. Mr. M was utterly speechless about this; ‘Could you be more serious? You are the world’s richest man; how could your villa in Celeston City not accommodate a few hundred people?’

However, Mr. M had to admit the truth no matter how reluctantly. Of course, he couldn’t refuse the richest man in the world to borrow his villa, especially when the man was his boss. But even if this wasn’t the case, Mr. M would still agree. Meeting so many people at one time would help build up many contacts and channels for the future.

Furthermore, all of these people were members of the same club, and getting to know each other could lead to potential collaborations in the future. In fact, these people didn’t hesitate at all when they received Finn’s invitation. Although Finn was the same age as their children, his achievements far exceeded those of the people who had been working hard throughout their lives. Additionally, Finn’s influence in this country was something that no one could ignore. Of course, no one would force you to come if you didn’t want to. But who would complain about having too much money? At least, these top tycoons of Flame Nation didn’t, so almost everyone came. Of course, there were also those who weren’t notified because this get-together was only for those within the country. However, there were foreign guests like Hanson Lee, mainly because this meeting was greatly related to him.

This meeting was quite low-profile. Everyone who came did not bring their female companions. Except for the women in attendance, it was all men, and no helpers were brought along. Everyone came personally. Everything was prepared in advance. In the evening, in the hall of Mr. M’s villa, a small stage was temporarily set up for middle-aged men. Finn Lewis got up and walked over.

Looking at the more than 200 people below, Finn also felt some emotions. Honestly, Finn didn’t expect that Moon of West Lake already had so many members. Of course, these were all people who joined the first time. After transforming into an invitation system later on, there were no new people joining.

“Welcome everyone to this gathering. This can be regarded as the first gathering of all members from Flame Nation in the Moon of West Lake. There are only two intentions for this gathering. First, are there a lot of people engaging in the mobile communications sector among us? As I recall, the CEO of Charming Clan is here,” Finn started, “Could you raise your hand? Sorry for my lack of familiarity, but could everyone involved in the mobile communications industry, especially those involved in production raise your hand?”
