I am a chaebol in South Korea

Chapter 37: hot potato

"Oh, I'll give it all to you." Li Zhenyu put the bowl in front of her with a doting look on his face.

IU nodded wildly, clasping her hands together happily and shaking her head from side to side.

After a moment, he asked cautiously and excitedly: "President Xi, can I make a small request?"

"Nai, tell me!" Li Zhenyu nodded and smiled.

"Hey~ Um...can I call President Xi, uncle?" IU stared at him expectantly.

"Huh?" Li Zhenyu raised his brows, and his calm behavior made IU lower her head nervously, placing her thumb on her chest and poking.

"Well, I agreed, eat it quickly!" Li Zhenyu leaned over and touched her head.

IU immediately came to life, her cheeks were red and she nodded, then picked up the mixed raw beef and put it in her mouth.

"Woo~" She closed her eyes and tasted the delicious beef with a moved face. IU's heart was filled with happiness.

Hey, I really want time to stop at this moment, President Xi...

No, Agassi.

I really want to stay with Agassi forever, that would be great

...

After having enough wine and food, the group all boarded the Land Rover and were driven back to the company by driver Jin.

"Are you still used to living in the dormitory?"

"Well, my agent Ernie helped me decorate it. It's very warm and feels like home. Do you want to see Agassi?"

"No need, just like it." Li Zhenyu was helpless, wondering what was going on in her little head.

When you invite the president to the female artist's dormitory late at night, are you afraid that the paparazzi will have no writing material?

Hey, this little girl dares to ruin my reputation.

If it weren't for her young age, she would definitely know how powerful her uncle is.

Back at the company, Li Zhenyu went straight to the top floor.

"Where is Sister Zhiyan? Are you still waiting?" Li Zhenyu looked very anxious after getting out of the elevator.

"President, here." Xia Zhuxi bowed and pointed to Jin Zhiyan in the corner.

"Ah~ Sister-in-law, why didn't you call me in advance and made you wait for so long? I'm really sorry."

"I happened to be passing by and wanted to come up and see you. It's okay."

"Let's talk in the office, Secretary Xia, coffee."

"No need." Jin Zhiyan covered her belly with her hands and said, "I can't drink anything anymore."

After two hours of waiting, Jin Zhiyan drank countless cups of coffee.

I only went to the restroom twice, and I couldn't even drink. I'm afraid I won't even be able to sleep well tonight.

Sitting down in the office, Li Zhenyu got straight to the point and said, "Sister Zhiyan is here for that matter."

"Ah, haha, I didn't come here specially, but since I'm here, of course I want to know your answer."

"I refuse." Li Zhenyu refused her conditions without any hesitation.

"...Zhenyu, is there anything that makes you dissatisfied? We can talk about it again."

Li Zhenyu raised his hand to interrupt the anxious Jin Zhiyan.

"Whether it's Shuanglong Chemical or the hotel, I'm not interested. Sister-in-law, you know what I want."

Jin Zhiyan looked embarrassed and said hesitantly: "Zhenyu, we...this is wrong."

"What are you thinking about? Really." Li Zhenyu said with a smile: "Ssanglong Motors, that's what I want."

What does greed mean and the snake swallows the elephant? Li Zhenyu's request perfectly explains this.

Shuanglong Motors, that's a big trouble.

"Why would you want it? That's a big problem."

Kim Ji-yeon did not hide anything, and there was no need to hide it.

The problem of Shuanglong Automobile is not just a day or two. It has been since it was taken over by a foreign company three years ago.

The tug-of-war between the two sides completely exposed the power of the Shuanglong Trade Union to the eyes of the world.

The annual output is only 100,000 units, but the factory has 8,000 workers. You must know that GM has an annual output of 1.5 million units, but only 20,000 workers.

This is not the most exaggerated thing. What is even more exaggerated is that one-third of the 8,000 workers are union members and are unemployed.

That is to say, there are more than 2,600 people out of 8,000 people who do nothing with their salary every day and are only responsible for causing trouble for the company.

Shuanglong has suffered losses for many years, and workers' wages still have to be increased every year. If wages are not increased, the union will take the lead in going on strike.

The outside world didn't know it at first, but after Yanguo Enterprise took over, the strength of the labor union could no longer be concealed.

Today's Shuanglong Motors has lost market share again and again due to successive capital chain exercises, mergers and acquisitions, intensified conflicts between labor and management, and other issues.

The reputation and reputation have also become bad.

It doesn't mean you can eat oil and water just because you have good teeth.

You also need an iron stomach.

"Leave it to me to deal with how to deal with the union. Sister Zhiyan only needs to answer whether she is willing or not."

"Of course, not now... next year, July or August should be fine."

Kim Ji-yeon owns 2% of the shares, worth about 25 billion, and it would be good for her to sell them.

With this money, even if her family wants to take back the company, she will have enough funds to deal with the crisis.

"I need time to think about it."

"I told you not to rush. There are still nine months until July next year. There is enough time for you to consider."

"Zhenyu, you have changed a lot than before, you are stronger and more confident."

"Really, maybe this is the price of living alone!"

After Jin Zhiyan left, Xia Zhuxi knocked on the door and asked: "President, Driver Jin said he had something to report."

"Invite him in." Li Zhenyu thought for a moment and then ordered: "From now on, there is no need to report anything about Driver Jin."

"Inside." Xia Zhuxi went out and closed the door.

"President, Director An has taken care of everything." Driver Jin said.

With Chief An coming forward, Li Zhenyu believes there will be no problem.

In South Korea, chaebols have great power.

However, it is not as what the outside world thinks, that it can do whatever it wants.

No matter whether Daewoo went bankrupt and was split up, or the founder fled, Hyundai's chairman has always been loyal to the company.

Even in the future liquidation of Sanxin, we have to make a promise that future generations will not participate in the management and allow the union to survive.

The battle between chaebols and the government has never stopped.

Especially the procuratorate. In the eyes of prosecutors, chaebol is a shortcut to the end of life.

Although this road is dangerous, there are still people who enjoy it.

If you are lucky enough, you will become a national hero overnight.

From then on, there was no obstacle to his rapid rise in the political arena.

Therefore, every time there is an investigation against the chaebol, the prosecutors will be as excited as mad dogs.

The situation will not calm down until an agreement is reached between the big shots, or one party shows weakness and cedes enough benefits to satisfy all parties.

This is why chaebols are keen on marrying potential new prosecutors.

Why do so many people hope to pass the judicial examination and become a member of the inspection team?

Once you become a prosecutor, you can really change your life and destiny.

At the same time, targeting chaebols has become a channel and means for the government to vent national sentiment.

Just like the foreign war of Grandma Wei, we live in an era of infinitely amplified material and mental pressure.

There must be a place to vent internal pressure.

If there is no pressure relief valve in the pressure cooker, everyone will be doomed.

Fortunately, the Quanzhou Li family belongs to neither the former nor the latter.

They are more like mediators and buffer zones. They have good relations with both sides, but they will not take sides easily.

If you have to say which side you prefer, lean a little closer to the government.

After all, the chaebol backed by Lao Mo is very powerful.

If your fists are not strong enough, how can you make the other party talk properly?

Therefore, it is easier for Mr. An to use public power to solve troubles than to ask the chaebol for help.

After all, most of the time, everyone is a grasshopper in the same trench.

"Well, is Chief An here?"

"On the way, we'll be there in about 5 minutes."

"Well~ go and do your work. Ask the secretary to make two cups of coffee."

"Okay." Driver Jin left emphatically.

Five minutes later, Xia Zhuxi walked in with two cups of steaming coffee, followed by a man she had never seen before.

With black rimless glasses and messy short hair, he looks like he is imitating an anime character.

The lean figure looks particularly energetic set off by the well-fitting custom-made suit.

"Chief An, you're here." Li Zhenyu put down his phone with a smile.

"Nai, are you okay?" Chief An bowed and said hello.

"Sit down, I'm not right in front of you, what do you think?"

"Looks good, stronger and more mature than three years ago."

"Really?" Li Zhenyu picked up the coffee, blew it and took a sip: "Thank you for your hard work this time."

"If you want to thank me, we can leave it to you later... The answer given by the prosecutor is five years. Now it depends on how you want to deal with it."

"Is it just five years?" Li Zhenyu said in surprise.

Director An adjusted the frame of the mirror and said politely: "After all, what you did is too obvious."

"Is it obvious?" Li Zhenyu was a little annoyed when he thought that the other party didn't even have time to stand up.

If I had known earlier, I would have given him a few more seconds, or at least let him rush over and hit me.

"I know, I will pay attention next time."

Seeing his 'understanding' expression, Chief An didn't know for a moment whether he was serious or joking.

Will this happen again?

"Although this is not what I should say, in your capacity, it would be too impulsive to do such a thing."

"It's just that the timing is right and I don't want to waste time on this kind of thing."

"That's too risky... Do you need me to send a few more people from home?"

"No need, isn't it enough to have a golden driver?"

Director An lowered his head and said with a faint smile: "Nai, it's up to you to decide."

"Five years... Let him hand over the company's artist contract and leave Seoul with the money."

"Is that just that?"

"Isn't this enough? Going too far will attract national attention."

"Yes, I will handle it. Do you have anything else to explain?"

Li Zhenyu drank the last sip of coffee and sighed with satisfaction: "Ah~ it tastes so good."

"There is something... give him a message. The subprime mortgage crisis has not passed yet. If you don't believe it, keep an eye on Fannie and Freddie!"

After speaking, Li Zhenyu slapped his thigh, stood up and strode out: "Let's go back first, Ai Gu. This day is really exhausting. How can you be so tired, Ai Gu?"

Watching him leave, Director An laughed silently: "Tsk, what on earth is this?"

However, when he thought of the contents of his 'convey' before leaving, Director An could no longer calm down.

So Zhao Yingjun went to Bad Country for this reason?

The Federal Reserve has obviously intervened and the situation has improved. Why do we say that the subprime crisis is not over yet?

What are the risks of Fannie and Freddie...

If this is true, wouldn't it be very dangerous for the National Pension to invest huge amounts of money overseas?

No, it must be confirmed as soon as possible.
