Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 812: All Lines Are Red (Part 1)

No one can predict how much profit Lu Shaohua will gain after controlling oil, not even Lu Shaohua himself. However, what is certain is that once Lu Shaohua's plan succeeds, it will bring him endless wealth.

Of course, in addition to wealth, the next most important thing is influence. It is conceivable that the most indispensable energy in the world is controlled by Lu Shaohua, and how great his influence is. If such a day really comes, no matter which country it is, even the most powerful country in the world, will have to give way to Lu Shaohua.

This is Lu Shaohua’s ultimate goal, Lu Shaohua wants to be a superior person.

When Lu Shaohua was just reborn, he only hoped that he could build an economic empire. However, in the later period, Lu Shaohua realized that the economic empire in his mind seemed to be achieved ahead of schedule with the outbreak of several financial crises.

When the economic empire was first formed, Lu Shaohua was only 18 years old. At 18 years old, according to conservative estimates, humans can live to or years old, which means that Lu Shaohua still has to years left.

How could Lu Shaohua waste such a long time? Therefore, Lu Shaohua had a new goal and a new pursuit, which was to become the best among human beings on earth and stand at the top.

What is the peak?

This sentence is difficult to understand because it covers too many areas, but Lu Shaohua himself gave a point, which is that his words can affect the international situation. One word can make two countries that are at war stop and resolve the war peacefully, and one word can even cause a country's economy to collapse.

The first two are easy to achieve. Lu Shaohua can do it as long as he controls oil and raises his influence to its peak. However, the last point is not so easy to achieve. It requires huge influence in business.

Perhaps with Lu Shaohua's current ability, he could do it by taking action in the financial market. However, it is still far from achieving Lu Shaohua's goal. Lu Shaohua's goal is to cause a country's economy to collapse with just one word from him, rather than letting it collapse and then recover.

What Lu Shaohua wants is long-term, not temporary. Yes, Lu Shaohua wants long-term. With just one word from him, that country will not only collapse financially, but also be unable to find a partner for a long time.

It is very difficult to achieve this. After all, Lu Shaohua must dominate many areas of business, otherwise everything is empty talk.

That's right, he needs to dominate in every field and reach the pinnacle, only then will his words have an effect.

However, Lu Shaohua is also doing it now. Let’s not talk about the distant past, but the near future, which is the construction of Lu Shaohua’s Internet empire.

As we all know, in the future, the rise of the Internet industry will make a huge contribution to mankind. As a reborn person, Lu Shaohua is well aware of this, and he is also working hard to reach the top of the Internet industry.

Lu Shaohua wants to take over the top ten Internet companies in the world. So far, he already owns two of them, namely Microsoft and Tencent. Lu Shaohua holds more than 20% of the shares of the former, and as for the latter, it can be said to be Lu Shaohua's private property, except that the latter has changed its name to Phoenix Tencent.

But it is undeniable that Ma Huateng, the founder of Tencent QQ, only holds 20% of the dry shares, and it is a dry share that does not have the right to speak. According to the contract signed between him and Lu Shaohua, Ma Huateng cannot sell the 20% dry shares to others. Even if he wants to sell it, he must get Lu Shaohua's consent.

But then again, with the development of Phoenix Tencent, would Ma Huateng be stupid enough to sell that 20% stake?

Now the market value of Phoenix Tencent has reached 500 billion US dollars, that is to say, Ma Huateng, who holds a 20% stake, has a net worth of 60 billion US dollars, which is equivalent to RMB and makes him a billionaire.

Moreover, judging from the current development speed of Phoenix Tencent, it is not far from breaking through the 200 billion US dollar mark in a few years. Once Phoenix Tencent breaks through the billion US dollar mark, Ma Huateng's net worth will exceed billion US dollars.

Is Ma Huateng a fool?

It is obvious that a fool could not have created the instant messaging software QQ, but Ma Huateng is not a fool. On the contrary, he is very smart. He is so smart that he believes that as long as he follows Lu Shaohua, he will one day become a billionaire of hundreds of billions of dollars.

Well, Ma Huateng is not a fool, but now is not the time to talk about this issue. The current issue is that Lu Shaohua plans to do more.

In building his internet empire, Lu Shaohua adopted the approach of rolling out in all directions. Whether it was in terms of search engines, operating systems, online dating, blogs, or online shopping, Lu Shaohua intended to make them the largest in the world.

There is no need to talk about the Phoenix operating system. So far, Lu Shaohua's Phoenix operating system is the largest in the world. As for online dating, there is no need to say more. Phoenix Tencent is a type of online dating and is also the largest in the world.

However, Lu Shaohua was very clear that in terms of online dating, there would be new ways of making friends in the form of websites in the future, so Lu Shaohua planned to acquire such a website, and Facebook, an American website that was only established in 2004, naturally became Lu Shaohua's target.

As for online shopping, Lu Shaohua also plans to support Alibaba and an American company called eBay, combine the two, strive to open up the global market, expand further, and eventually become the largest in the world.

At the same time, Lu Shaohua also clearly understood one thing, that is, there is still a long way to go to accomplish all this, and there is no need to be impatient. He can only take one step at a time and do it slowly.

However, Lu Shaohua was very confident that he could achieve his goal. After all, Phoenix Group's influence was already very large. In addition, he was one step ahead and had the right time, place and people. If he could not achieve his goal, it would only mean that God was against Lu Shaohua.

In addition, Lu Shaohua also took action in other industries. As Lu Shaohua's most important project - computers, Lu Shaohua invested unprecedented enthusiasm. So far, Phoenix Computer has become a world-famous brand.

That’s right, Phoenix Computer defeated IBM, Dell, and Apple in the United States and became the most powerful one.

Originally, as a latecomer, Phoenix Computer would not have been able to develop so quickly. However, after the last conspiracy of the four companies was defeated by Lu Shaohua and an unprecedented scandal was spread, the reputation of the four companies plummeted, leading to the rise of Phoenix Computer.

There are many reasons for this. One reason is that Phoenix Computer itself is good and popular. Then, what happened really made Phoenix Computer a legend. But to put it another way, Phoenix Computer climbed to the top by stepping on the shoulders of the four American companies.

Lu Shaohua didn't mind doing that at all, since he owned shares in those four companies. But Lu Shaohua didn't mind at all, after all, Phoenix Computer was founded by him, and those four companies were just some shares that Lu Shaohua acquired later.

There is no comparison between running a business personally and holding a small share, so Lu Shaohua is more inclined towards Phoenix Computer.

Phoenix Computer can be said to have reached its peak, but Lu Shaohua knew that it was still a little distance away from his goal, so Lu Shaohua did not relax, but strictly ordered his subordinates to continue working hard.

……

Phoenix Computer has risen, but what about the other industry that Lu Shaohua paid the most attention to at the time - automobiles?

Phoenix Auto is also a big brand in the industry, but unlike Phoenix Computer, there are many brands in the auto industry that are stronger than Phoenix Auto. For example, Mercedes-Benz, Gem, GM, Volkswagen, Audi, Rolls-Royce, and many other old brands are very strong.

However, after Phoenix Group acquired Toyota Motor, the evenly matched situation was broken. Phoenix Motor has been rising step by step. Lu Shaohua has reason to believe that in a few years, Phoenix Motor will definitely become the leader in the automotive industry.

However, in the meantime, there are still many things that Lu Shaohua needs to do.

Lu Shaohua already had a plan in his mind, which was to gradually merge and acquire brands like Rolls-Royce. Lu Shaohua was very jealous of it.

Looking back at history, Rolls-Royce changed hands several times and finally fell into the hands of BMW, becoming a German company.

Now that Lu Shaohua has appeared, will history change?

If Lu Shaohua were asked to answer this question, he would definitely say yes, history can be changed.

Because Lu Shaohua was determined to bring Rolls-Royce into the account and make it a subsidiary of Phoenix Automobile, like Toyota Motors. However, in Lu Shaohua's plan, the two would exist in different forms. When Lu Shaohua wanted to take action against Rolls-Royce, the means he adopted were obvious.

To put it bluntly, when preparing to acquire Rolls-Royce, Lu Shaohua intended to acquire it through fair means, rather than secretly managing the acquisition as he did when he acquired Toyota Motors.

It's not that Lu Shaohua couldn't make a secret acquisition, but Lu Shaohua respected Rolls-Royce. He once liked this car very much. It can be seen from the luxury car Lu Shaohua bought that Lu Shaohua loves Rolls-Royce very much.

It was because Lu Shaohua had respect in his heart that he decided to do it openly.

Of course, up to now, Lu Shaohua has not taken any action. We need to wait for a while. When Lu Shaohua has free hands and sufficient funds, then the action can begin.

In a nutshell, it is certain that Lu Shaohua will get the Rolls-Royce. No matter what, Lu Shaohua must get it.

As for whether there would be obstacles, Lu Shaohua had thought about it. There would definitely be obstacles, and they would be very big. But looking back at history, the Germans, who were the enemies of the British, were able to take over Rolls-Royce, so why couldn't Lu Shaohua, a Chinese?

This is Lu Shaohua's determination.
