Chapter 478 Heading to Eagle Sauce
The level of danger in the Eagle Country is the highest in the world.

The control of weapons is very loose, and the society there is relatively chaotic.
The frequency of dangerous accidents is much higher than in China.
So Gao Yuan must make full preparations in advance when he goes to the Eagle Country.
Musk will definitely provide some security, but Gao Yuan will not hand over his safety to a foreigner.
This 500-person security team was trained from the Australian military training base, and they have gone deep into the war-torn countries in Africa and have sufficient battlefield experience.
In the outside world, it is at least equivalent to a combat team of 10,000 people.
So with these people protecting Gao Yuan's safety, there should be no big problem.
After giving the order, Zhang Yu led the team to the Eagle Country as soon as possible. These people went there in batches. After arriving at the destination, they immediately checked all places and checked all safety measures.
The entire hotel and the nearby streets were checked clearly.
Afterwards, Zhang Yu contacted Musk's security team to determine the next process and formulate a security strategy.
There are not many good bosses like Gao Yuan, and Gao Yuan's safety must be guaranteed.
Otherwise, if they go to other companies, those companies will not give them such good treatment.
After all the work was prepared, in mid-October, Gao Yuan took a special plane across the ocean to the Eagle Sauce Country. It was his first time to set foot on this land, and it was far from what Gao Yuan remembered.
Many people's first impression of the Eagle Sauce Country was actually similar to Gao Yuan's.
In the various magazines I read when I was a child, they were all crazy about how good Western countries like the Eagle Sauce Country were. They were rigorous in their work, enthusiastic, generous, polite, and the streets were spotless.
By praising these Western countries, they belittled the Chinese country.
But people at that time had too little contact with the outside world and believed the content of these magazines.
Now it seems that these magazines are worthy of death.
The streets of the Eagle Sauce Country are very messy, and there are homeless people on the streets. Those people set up a simple tent on the side of the street, and then throw the few luggage next to the tent.
Many people were dishevelled and looked messy.
And there were many young people on the street who were very irritable and would fight if they couldn't agree on a few words.
This was still daytime, if it was night, it might be even more chaotic.
Zhang Yu personally led the team to the airport and escorted Gao Yuan to the hotel.
On the way, Zhang Yu acted as Gao Yuan's driver and told him about the situation in the Eagle Country, "Mr. Gao, I think this place is not as good as our China. I don't understand why some people are willing to fight for it."
"The brain circuits of these people are different from those of normal people." Gao Yuan laughed, "They always think that others are better than themselves, and other countries are better than their own country."
"In their hearts, they still think they are superior to others. It's okay in the Eagle Country, but as long as they return to China, they will publicize their identity everywhere and show that they are different."
Gao Yuan still remembers that there was an aunt who immigrated to the Eagle Country before, and she was very noisy after returning to China.
Involving disturbing public order, after breaking the law, the aunt kept shouting that she was an American and that the laws of China could not control her.
She also attacked people from relevant departments, as if she had three heads and six arms.
In fact, according to the law, most of them are subject to the principle of territoriality.
That is, no matter which country a person is from, as long as he breaks the law in a local area, he must be punished by the local area.
Not long after, Zhang Yu drove to the downstairs of the hotel.
There were four or five cars behind this car, all used to protect Gao Yuan's safety.
As for this hotel, it is owned by Musk.
From here, go southeast for a few kilometers or so and you will reach the headquarters and industrial park of Musk's company.
"Mr. Gao!"
Musk was already waiting in the hotel, "I was going to pick you up at the airport, but I have something to deal with temporarily, I hope you can forgive me."
Since meeting Gao Yuan, Musk has become more and more familiar with the culture of China.
Now he is considered half a China expert.
He also specially hired a team that has a deep understanding of the culture of China to help him learn the language and customs of China.
"Musk, you are too polite." Gao Yuan said, "We are all friends, there is no need to be so formal."
After chatting for a few words, Musk took the initiative to talk about this press conference.
In addition to Gao Yuan, some financial tycoons on Wall Street will also attend this press conference.
Gao Yuan has heard about the methods of those capitalist tycoons.
These people are guys who eat people without spitting out bones.
With their abilities, they can easily destroy the economy of a small country.
This is not an exaggeration, because they not only represent themselves, but also represent a lot of hot money in the world. Once they make a move, those hot money will also join their camp frantically in order to get a share of the profits.
Therefore, a large amount of capital will end up.
"These financial tycoons are not good stuff." Gao Yuan sighed.
"Their energy is too strong, even I dare not easily go against them." Musk said, "These people use the rules to the extreme, and they will also exploit loopholes in the rules."
"When they plan to take action against a company, it means that a wolf opens its bloody mouth and bites the neck of a sheep."
Musk’s sense of these financial giants is not very good either.
Those predators once tried to short their company's stock, but Musk was on the rise at that time. When the company's stock fell, someone would buy it to push up the stock price.
After trying something wrong, the predators quickly retreated.
But even so, Musk paid tens of billions of dollars.
"So you can only make good friends with these capital giants, and don't offend them easily." Musk gave his own advice.
"I would like to meet these capital giants for a while."
Gao Yuan smiled.
His company is not listed in Eagle Sauce Country, so there is no need to worry about many things.
These capital predators want to transfer their funds to China and then target Gao Yuan. There is no need to worry about this kind of thing.
Aren’t they afraid that money will go in but not be able to get out?
Many people are staring at these capital giants, waiting for them to make mistakes. Once they reveal a major flaw, many people will rush up and trample them to death.
"I will introduce you to them at that time." Musk said, "But I still suggest that Mr. Gao establish a good cooperative relationship with them. In this way, with their help, your products may be sold in the Eagle Sauce Country. Even sold in Western countries.”
"The power they control is much greater than many people imagine."
The largest group of investors on Wall Street is Taipei Capital, and these Taipei people have a great say in the country.
If they are willing to help, I believe it won't be long before the Yingjiang Country will relax its blockade and allow Yuanfang Group's products to appear in the Yingjiang Country's market.
At the same time, as China liberalizes its markets, those Western countries will follow suit and liberalize their markets.
The combined population of these Western countries is less than half the number of people in Asia.
But their consumption power is very strong, and Gaoyuan's products lack such a large market.
"Let's talk about it when we meet," Gao Yuan said.
It's too early to tell.
As for the attitude of Squid Capital, it is still unknown.
"Okay, let's talk in detail then." Musk nodded. "It's getting late. I'm going back to the company first. You can check the market first and hold a press conference at six o'clock in the afternoon."
Gao Yuan took a plane to Eagle Sauce Country at six o'clock in the morning.
Because of the time difference, when they arrived at Yingjiang Country, it was also morning here.
The press conference will be held at 6 p.m., which is about eight or nine hours away.
Lying on the hotel bed, Gao Yuan quickly fell asleep.
It's impossible to have a good rest on a plane, so a hotel would be more comfortable.
In this way, Gao Yuan slept until around three or four in the afternoon before waking up.
It was still early and there was nothing to do in the hotel, so Gao Yuan went out.
Made a call to Musk.
He is still busy preparing for this press conference. There are too many dignitaries and rich people from various countries coming this time, and they basically come here for Musk’s sake.
As the host, Musk is currently greeting guests at the airport.
Gao Yuan had nothing particularly important to do, so he asked Musk to send a vice president to take him around the industrial park.
A moment later, a blond and blue-eyed woman with a royal-sister style appeared in front of Gao Yuan.
"Hello, Mr. Gao."
The blond woman looked at Gao Yuan with a smile, "My name is Steele Joanna. I was sent by Mr. Musk. I will take you to visit the entire industrial park next."
The secretary on the side saw the blond woman and whispered in Gao Yuan's ear, "This Joanna is definitely Musk's confidant. She has been the president of the Tesla Business Unit and is responsible for global Tesla. Sale."
Joanna graduated from a prestigious university in China and studied until she got a doctorate. During her master's degree, she entered Musk's company and later became a middle-level manager of the company after graduating with a doctorate.
She was promoted by Musk to be the person in charge of Tesla after leading the team through several difficult-to-overcome studies.
Tesla was previously Musk's most profitable project, and his money for developing space rockets basically came from Tesla.
Later, all Tesla's domestic operations were transferred to Yuanfang Group.
She is responsible for Tesla's sales in Western countries.
Without such a huge market in China, Tesla's net profit has been much lower than before.
But despite this, Musk still entrusted Joanna with important tasks and gave her a lot of work.
"Mr. Gao Yuan, actually, I have always been curious about you."
Joanna walked with Gao Yuan in the industrial park and couldn't help but say, "The Tesla project has such a huge market in China. Several series combined, almost one million units are sold every year."
"Based on Tesla's selling price and after-sales service, it will earn about 400 billion from China every year."
"Why is Mr. Musk willing to give up the domestic Tesla project?"
Joanna was puzzled.
Although she is Musk's confidant, Musk doesn't tell her everything.
Musk still has a lot of secrets.
"The reason is very simple. I wonder if Miss Joanna has ever taken a Yuanfang Group car?" Gao Yuan asked.
"I've heard of it, but I haven't ridden it." Joanna said, "It is said that the price of Yuanfang car is only 15,000 US dollars, which is very cheap. I guess this type of car will not have much impact on Tesla's market?"
"The car companies in China are not very rigorous in making cars, and the materials they use are also very poor. If this level of car wants to enter the market in the United States, it will first be blocked at the quality level."
After listening to Joanna's words, Gao Yuan didn't know what to say for a while.
After calming down, Gao Yuan said, "Miss Joanna, weakness and ignorance are not reasons for failure. Your arrogance is the biggest reason for Tesla to withdraw from the Chinese market."
"I don't know how long you haven't known about China. Perhaps your understanding of China is only from some media that distort the facts. These media will do everything they can to discredit China."
"I recommend that you try Yuanfang car. After you really experience it, you will understand why Mr. Musk will let Tesla withdraw from the Chinese market."
Yuanfang car is far superior to Tesla in terms of quality and cost performance.
It is precisely because of this that Musk decided to withdraw from the Chinese market.
He knew that after Yuanfang Automobile went public, the domestic automobile market would be greatly impacted. Instead of failing to sell products and having problems with the capital chain, which would eventually lead to bankruptcy, it would be better to do a favor.
Before leaving, Musk even gave all of Tesla's production lines in China to Gao Yuan, winning Gao Yuan's favor.
This also laid the foundation for Gao Yuan and Musk to cooperate in establishing a space rocket company in Australia in the future.
"I roughly understand what you mean. Don't worry, I will do everything I can to buy a Yuanfang car and test drive it." Joanna nodded.
After accompanying Gao Yuan to visit the industrial park, Joanna immediately contacted her assistant and asked her to find a way to order a Yuanfang car from China, and then send it to the United States by air.
At the same time, the secretary also sent Joanna a document about Yuanfang Automobile.
You don't know until you see it. After reading this document, Joanna was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a long time.
She didn't expect that the annual sales of Yuanfang Automobile in Daxia Country could exceed 4 million.
What a terrifying number!
Tesla's global sales are only half of Yuanfang Automobile. After launching the Chinese market, sales plummeted to only a quarter of Yuanfang Automobile's sales.
Joanna hasn't paid attention to the Chinese market for a long time. She was so arrogant that she didn't know the influence of Yuanfang Automobile.
After reading the information, Joanna became more and more interested in Yuanfang Automobile. She couldn't wait to test drive Yuanfang Automobile. (End of this chapter)
