The source of the information Wei Hanyu acquired was incredibly coincidental.
When Chen Yiyang initially helped broker deals between the drone company in Lin’an and the South Korean military drone contractor, he collaborated with Cui Zhihao, a South Korean.
Unlike Schaefer, Cui Zhihao is not a professional broker; he’s purely a speculator who runs wherever there’s money-making potential.
After making a buck or two exploiting the information gap in Huaxia, he believed there was great potential here.
So recently, he’s been attending various gatherings, hoping to et as many people as possible to find more opportunities.
Among these people, a middle manager from Changcheng got to know Cui Zhihao during this period.
One ti while drinking, a drunk Cui Zhihao boasted about a lot of things, including how he helped the South Korean military drone contractor make money, and he even ntioned the na Chen Yiyang. Referring to Chen Yiyang, a dostic businessman of so viral fa, would make him seem well-connected.
However, because Cui Zhihao’s account was so vague, this Changcheng middle manager assud he had sold the secret technology of the South Korean military drone contractor dostically through Chen Yiyang.
This information was eventually passed on to Wei Hanyu.
"Find a South Korean dia outlet and leak this story," Wei Hanyu instructed his subordinates without hesitation after learning of this information, directing them to handle it through appropriate South Korean dia.
anwhile, Chen Yiyang was too preoccupied to pay attention to dostic matters.
After ousting Changcheng and acquiring the Yiboli Automobile Factory,
Chen Yiyang felt that the real battle with Changcheng had comnced, and it wouldn’t end until he had thoroughly outmaneuvered them.
Thus, he was actively seeking new opportunities to retaliate against Changcheng.
However, he hadn’t even left Brazil when a piece of intelligence suddenly popped up, presenting a promising opportunity.
Today’s intelligence report: Coffee bean shortage: A Brazilian coffee bean supplier lacks a long-term, stable supplier. Coffee bean producers in Yunnan Province are looking for foreign buyers. Facilitating a deal between both parties could result in windfall gains.
Contact details of relevant personnel are attached on the second page.
?
Chen Yiyang, upon seeing this information, was filled with confusion.
Brazil is running short of coffee?
Despite not having spent much ti in Brazil, he knew it was the world’s largest coffee bean producing region, accounting for around forty percent of global coffee output.
Additionally, Brazil is one of the few regions where coffee is chanized for planting and harvesting, making it highly efficient with substantial yields.
Yet now, this intelligence suggested he should sell coffee in Brazil?
How is this any different from importing waterlons from Japan to sell dostically, risking heavy losses?
However, since the intelligence indicated so, Chen Yiyang thought it would be wise to look into it anyway.
So he asked Bia to make a call on his behalf and set up a eting with the Brazilian coffee bean supplier.
While Chen Yiyang hadn’t been out much in Sao Paulo and didn’t know many locals,
his acquisition of the Yiboli Automobile Factory did make it to the local newspapers.
Thus, when Bia’s contact reached out, the other party, seeking confirmation of Chen Yiyang’s credentials, hoped he would invite soone from the Marco Clan to the eting.
Hence, Chen Yiyang decided to give young Marco a call, who imdiately arranged a gathering.
Young Marco was indeed very accommodating.
Although Chen Yiyang ntioned it would be a simple business eting, Marco nonetheless threw a grand party at his house.
That Japanese-Brazilian beauty Chen Yiyang t last ti also attended.
Upon seeing Chen Yiyang, she imdiately approached him.
Chen Yiyang saw that young Marco was also surrounded by three or four beauties.
He then had to embrace this local custom, sitting by the pool with the Japanese-Brazilian beauty.
Shortly thereafter, the person Chen Yiyang was expecting arrived.
"Hey, Squid, it’s been a while," young Marco greeted first, recognizing the newcor.
"Squid?" Chen Yiyang wondered; this wasn’t the na of the person he had scheduled to et.
Bia quickly explained that in Brazil, it’s rare to address soone by both first and last na; usually, people use either the first na or a nickna.
Even the Brazilian president is often informally referred to by a nickna rather than their full na. So this "Silva," or "Squid," is the nickna for Silva, the gentleman you’re eting.
Bia briefly educated Chen Yiyang on Brazilian naming conventions, providing examples like renowned Brazilian footballers Kaka and Ronaldinho, known widely by nicknas rather than real nas.
Particularly Kaka, whose official na doesn’t even include "Kaka." The nickna originated purely due to his younger sibling, who mispronounced "Ricardo" in his na as "Kaka," so the nickna stuck.
"Hello, Mr. Silva." Chen Yiyang considered for a mont and decided to address him by his actual na instead of the nickna.
"Hello, Huaxia friend," Silva responded, appearing laid-back.
He was sowhat older than young Marco, around forty.
The three of them, with the ladies clinging along, sat by the pool in their sumr attire and began chatting.
"I was told you wanted to discuss coffee bean business with ," Silva said, getting straight to business.
Mr. Silva, who once studied in Europe and speaks English, eliminated the need for translation assistance from Bia for their conversation.
"Yes, my team in Brazil caught wind of a rumor that you might be short on coffee beans?"
"Hahaha," Marco interjected with laughter before Chen Yiyang even finished speaking.
"Chen, do you know how much of Brazil’s coffee business this guy controls? He handles forty percent of the coffee output in Sao Paulo, one of Brazil’s three main coffee regions. There’s no way he’d be short on coffee beans."
Even before Marco’s voice faded, Silva shrugged, acknowledging, "Actually, I do have a coffee bean shortage right now."
"Hmm?" young Marco looked surprised.
"Brazil accounts for forty percent of the world’s total coffee bean production. One might say Brazil’s coffee bean production dictates global coffee supply.
Yet, coincidentally, Brazil’s climate hasn’t been too kind these past couple of years, leading to unpredictable yields."
Silva explained, "Currently, all my beans are designated for clients in Europe and Arica. However, a few years back, I struck deals with so clients in Asia, and I can’t fulfill those orders now."
