As soon as Kim Tae Hee finished speaking, Song Jingyan's face turned red. Cui Shanji noticed Song Jingyan's expression and sighed in her heart. Kim Tae Hee didn't even mention Song Jingyan, but Song Jingyan felt guilty first and automatically classified herself as Song Yi's confidante.
Cui Shanji first glanced at the sleeping Song Yuanshu and praised, "What a beautiful little girl. She will definitely look like her mother when she grows up, and she will be the most beautiful woman in Korea in the future. It's a pity that I have a daughter, otherwise I would have arranged a baby marriage with you."
Kim Tae Hee smiled and said, "Sister Shan Ji, at your age now, it's just right to have a son. Wouldn't it be nice to have a son to keep your daughter company?"
Cui Shanji glanced at Song Yi and shook her head. "Children nowadays are amazing. They mature very early. My Yunzhu told me before that if I want to give her a brother, I need to sign an agreement first to ensure that she can share my and Zaichan's property equally with her brother in the future."
Chen Jae-chan and his wife hold a lot of SA Group shares. Although their wealth is not as much as Chen Fuzhen, they are also well-known wealthy people in South Korea.
Perhaps because of the company's bankruptcy, Chen Zaican is more open-minded about his offspring and has no intention of having another son. He has placed all his love and care on his only daughter Chen Yunzhu. As a member of the fourth generation of the Samsung family, Chen Yunzhu attracted a lot of attention in middle school. Chen Yunzhu and Girls' Generation's youngest member Xu Juxian attended Yongsan International School in Seoul. The children who attended this middle school were either rich or noble, and the annual tuition was as high as 60,000 US dollars.
Song Jingyan was shocked when she heard Cui Shanji say this, "Yunzhu is so young, and she has already considered the issue of inheriting the property in the future. Are all the children of chaebols so precocious?"
Song Yi heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Cui Shanji did not agree to Kim Tae-hee's proposal of child marriage. If Cui Shanji gave birth to a son and married Song Yuanshu, how would he get along with Cui Shanji in the future?
"Yunzhu is considered sensible, and she is willing to share the family property equally with her brother. Some children, in order to monopolize the family property, will never agree to their parents having a second child, unless their parents are willing to make a will and leave most of the property to her, otherwise they will threaten to commit suicide. Some children are born to repay gratitude, and some children are born to collect debts." Song Yi said.
Cui Shanji and Song Yi joked, "Our family is not like yours. Our financial resources are a little thin, so it is enough to leave a substantial dowry for Yunzhu. Chairman Song, your family is big and prosperous, so it will be no problem for you and Tae Hee to have a few more children."
Song Yi felt sorry for Kim Tae Hee, "Every time a woman gives birth, her body is damaged, and it takes half a year to recover. Tae Hee now has a son and a daughter, and Won Hao has his sister Won Sook to keep him company, so there's no need for us to have a third child."
Choi Sun-hee looked at Kim Tae-hee again. Whether to have a third child depends mainly on the woman's opinion. Didn't Lin Zhiling have a son and a daughter before, and now she is pregnant with a third child? When Chen Fuzhen made a public appearance in the mainland media as the president of SA Cultural Tourism Group, Kim Tae-hee's parents had already noticed something was wrong.
Although Chen Xinyu from the Samsung family serves as the president of Yahoo Korea, she was able to hold a high position because she achieved her achievements step by step at SA Soft and gained recognition from her colleagues in the company and Song Yi.
Chen Fuzhen is different. After resigning as the president of Shilla Hotel, she was directly parachuted into SA Group as the president of SA Culture and Tourism Group.
Chen Fuzhen's appointment also broke the convention of SA Group. She was the first president to be promoted from outside the SA Group.
Although Song Yi had previously poached Jeon Ju-ho from CYworld and Kim Myung-kyu from LG, their situations were very different from Chen Fuzhen's.
Jeon Ju-ho has been a member of SA Group for a long time and passed Song Yi's probation period before becoming the president of Korea Inschool.
Kim Myung-kyu was previously the president of LG GNS, and LG Group is an ally of SA Group. Kim Myung-kyu is also the son-in-law of the chairman of LG Group and married to Gu Kwang-mok's sister Gu Yeon-kyung, so his status is certainly different.
Although SA Telecom is the fourth largest telecommunications service provider in South Korea, it was not very large when it was first established. After a year of development, it expanded its telecommunications and network services to parts of Gyeonggi Province, Incheon City, Gangwon Province, and Seoul.
SA Cultural Tourism Group is different. As soon as it was established, it integrated the hotel and tourism businesses of the SA Group and also got involved in some tourism real estate businesses. It will definitely become a core subsidiary of the SA Group in the future.
If Chen Fuzhen had not just joined the SA Group, given the scale of the SA Cultural Tourism Group and Chen Fuzhen's personal qualifications, Chen Fuzhen would be fully qualified to join the SA Group Board of Directors.
Of the two sisters, Kim Hee-won has already joined the SA Group Board of Directors. Kim Tae-hee has not yet joined the SA Group Board of Directors because she is not yet in charge of the core business of the SA Group. From this perspective, it is not surprising that Kim Tae-hee's family is wary of Chen Fuzhen.
Even though Sun Yezhen gave birth to a son, Song Yuanlong, for Song Yi, the existence of Sun Yezhen could not threaten Kim Tae-hee's position as the principal wife.
Even if Son Ye-jin is successful in her acting career and has won the Grand Bell Awards, Blue Dragon Awards and Baeksang Arts Awards, she will not be able to stir up any waves as long as she does not master the core business of SA Group and has no access to SA Group's commercial resources. This is why Kim Hee-won accepted Son Ye-jin so easily in the beginning.
So after Chen Fuzhen joined SA Group, Kim's mother and Kim Hee-won gave Kim Tae-hee advice that when Song Won-sook was older, Kim Tae-hee should have another child and give Song Yi another son. This way, Kim Tae-hee's position as the first wife would be completely stabilized.
Jin Yuwen felt sorry for his daughter Jin Tae-hee. "Tae-hee has already given birth to two children in the past three years. It's too much for her to give birth to another son. Tae-hee, if you are wronged and bullied by Song Yi, let's go home. Even without Song Yi, Dad can take good care of you and let you have no worries about food and clothing in the future."
When Jin's mother heard what Jin Yuwen said, she was very angry. "Things have developed to this stage, why are you trying to back out of Taixi? If you really care about your daughter, then you shouldn't have agreed to let Taixi marry Song Yi."
"Song Yi is now a billionaire, and Tae Hee's children will inherit this huge fortune of tens of billions of dollars in the future. The SA family may replace the Samsung family and become the number one chaebol in South Korea in the future."
"At such a critical moment, you backed out for Tae-hee. If Tae-hee really breaks up with Song Yi, wouldn't it be a waste of money for other women? At that time, it will be unknown whether Won-ho and Won-sook can still inherit the SA Group. How can you be so short-sighted?" Mother Jin scolded her husband Jin Yu-wen without any hesitation.
Jin Xiyuan's statement was different from Jin's mother's. "Tae Hee, I know that you were very sad that Song Yi brought Chen Fuzhen to the mainland and appointed him as the president of SA Cultural Tourism Group. After all, he did not discuss this matter with you and made his own decision. It may be a bit disrespectful to you."
"I've told you before that Song Yi, apart from being a playboy, doesn't really have any major flaws. I warned you before you and Song Yi got married, and you were mentally prepared."
"Song Yi had his own reasons for rushing to bring Chen Fuzhen to the mainland."
"Chen Jianxi learned about the relationship between Chen Fuzhen and Song Yi, and in a rage, he dismissed Chen Fuzhen from his post and placed him under house arrest."
"After learning the news, Song Yi flew back to Seoul, made a deal with Chen Jianxi, and then took Chen Fuzhen and her son away."
"Chen Fuzhen's departure from Samsung Group was not without cost. She voluntarily gave up the Samsung Group shares she held in her name, which were worth trillions of won."
"Chen Fuzhen is an extremely smart woman. She knew that after giving up Samsung's stocks, Song Yi, who felt guilty, would definitely not treat her badly. That's why she was able to directly serve as the president of SA Culture and Tourism Group. Song Yi even used all his connections to help SA Culture and Tourism Group win major cultural and tourism projects such as Disneyland or Universal Studios, to help Chen Fuzhen stabilize the situation of SA Culture and Tourism Group and establish Chen Fuzhen's prestige."
"Ask yourself, if Chen Fuzhen and I were to switch places, I would not be able to give up Samsung Group shares worth trillions of won so decisively."
"Chen Fuzhen can do it, and that's what makes her so great. What does this prove? It proves that Chen Fuzhen knows Song Yi well enough and believes in him."
"Tae Hee, you have lived with Song Yi for so long. Can you trust Song Yi as unreservedly as Chen Fuzhen does?" Kim Hee Won's question was sharp.
"I can." Kim Tae-hee answered firmly.
"Since you can trust Song Yi without reservation, it means that you feel that Song Yi's love for you has not changed."
"Tae Hee, you have to remember that the reason we are willing to be with Song Yi is because we love him and he loves us too."
"So I can only partially agree with what Oh Mom said. If Song Yi no longer loves us, and we stay with him for money, and we shamelessly stay with him just to divide the property, and seeing each other every day is torture, then there is no need for this."
"Isn't that what happened to SK Group's Sister So Young? If it were me, when we were married but not in harmony, and I saw you like an enemy every day, I would rather take a breakup fee and leave than accept this kind of mental torture."
"To some extent, I think it's not a bad thing for Chen Fuzhen to join the SA Group. I hope you can change and become stronger. You need to make your voice heard in the SA Group."
"Tae Hee, Song Yi is flirting with many women outside. To some extent, isn't it your indulgence towards him?" Jin Xiyuan said earnestly.
"Before, I always thought that Oppa was just playing around and would not bring these women home. Oppa has always doted on me, and we are a loving couple, so I didn't care about the women outside of Oppa." Kim Tae-hee said shamefully.
"You're right. Song Yi was just playing around. He wouldn't bring these women in. He slept with all the female artists signed by SA, but only Son Ye-jin got pregnant with Song Yi's child and succeeded in getting promoted."
"However, as the wife of the SA Group's president, shouldn't you be careful and be aware of Song Yi's other women? Those women are just for fun, and those women are the ones Song Yi prefers. You have to treat them differently."
"If you had done enough preparation at the beginning and understood Song Yi's dynamics, how could Son Ye-jin have had a chance to get pregnant?" Kim Hee-won felt a little disappointed.
"Ouni, I thought too simply. I have always wanted to make a career, so I put more energy into the THK clothing brand. I want to make the THK clothing brand an internationally renowned brand, so that I will have the confidence to stand next to Song Yi." Kim Tae-hee expressed her obsession.
Kim Hee-won knew Kim Tae-hee's biggest problem now. Even though she was the highest-paid advertising actress in South Korea, her role in "Dae Jang Geum" became popular in Asia, and she was known as the No. 1 beauty in South Korea. She was a rich and beautiful girl who graduated from Seoul University, but she still lacked confidence when facing Song Yi.
LG Group Chairman Gu Bon-sung has two daughters, the eldest daughter Gu Yeon-kyung and the second daughter Gu Yeon-soo. The eldest daughter Gu Yeon-kyung married SA Telecom President Kim Myeong-kyu, and the second daughter Gu Yeon-soo's marriage has not yet been decided.
At this time, there was a rumor in the socialite circle in Seoul that Kim Tae-hee hoped to become closer to the LG family and was preparing to propose to the LG family, asking Kim Hyun-soo to marry Gu Yeon-soo, the little princess of LG Group.
In fact, this rumor itself is nonsense. Zhou Zhiyi of the Hyundai family has married Gu Guangmo, the prince of LG Group. Song Yi has no need to win over the LG family through Kim Hyung Soo's marriage. Although Kim Hyung Soo is Song Yi's brother-in-law, his family background is weaker after all, and he is not a good match for Gu Yeon Soo. How could Kim Tae Hee propose to the LG family and ask for Gu Yeon Soo to marry her brother Kim Hyung Soo?
This rumor is intended to alienate the good cooperative relationship between SA Group and LG Group. As long as Gu Bon-sung of LG Group believes this rumor, it will alienate the alliance between Gu Bon-sung and Song Yi.
The most outrageous thing about this rumor is that neither Gu Bensheng nor Song Yi can come forward to deny it, because the marriage rumor itself is a fabrication and it is difficult to completely clarify it.
If Gu Bon-sung came out to deny the marriage, it would mean that Gu Yeon-soo looked down on Kim Hyung-soo, which would be an offense to Song Yi to some extent.
The most infuriating thing is that the wife of a certain group chairman went to ask Gu Yeon-soo whether the marriage was true or not. Gu Yeon-soo said that she did not know Kim Tae-hee's brother Kim Hyung-soo. As a result, the socialite circle in Seoul ridiculed Kim Hyung-soo as a toad wanting to eat swan meat, which made Kim Tae-hee very angry. She now wants to find a good marriage for Kim Hyung-soo and clarify the rumor as soon as possible.
Song Yi was investigating in the mainland at that time and was busy with the listing of Xinya Network on the Hong Kong stock market. Kim Tae Hee was embarrassed to bother Song Yi with Kim Hyung Soo's marriage. If Song Yi misunderstood and thought that Kim Tae Hee really wanted to marry into the LG family, it would create a rift between the couple.
"Sister Shan Ji, my younger brother Hyung Soo is about to graduate from college, and my parents want to arrange a marriage for him. You are a native of Seoul, have a wide circle of friends, and know many wives of chairman. See if you can help Hyung Soo find a good marriage." Kim Tae Hee requested sincerely.
Cui Shanji had met Jin Hengzhu, and the young man was handsome. Although his family background was a little weak, he was fortunate to have the support of Song Yi, the richest man's brother-in-law, so his future development would not be too bad.
During the 2002 World Cup, Chen Zaican, Cha Tae-hyun, Kim Jong-kook and Kim Hyung-soo often went to watch the games together. Choi Sun-hee and Kim Tae-hee often went shopping together, forming a shopping group for wives.
Cui Shanji also heard the rumor that Gu Yanxiu and Jin Hengzhu were getting married. She didn't know Jin Taixi's attitude, so she asked tentatively, "I heard that Chairman Gu Bonsheng's second daughter Yanxiu is still unmarried-"
Before she finished her words, Kim Tae-hee immediately rejected the proposal, "Sister Sun-hee, our family is small and we can't marry the little princess of the LG family. We just want to find a girl with a similar family background to marry, and we don't plan to marry into the top ten financial groups."
"With the help of SouHan.com, Ohba has finally expanded Tongyun Logistics' business to the Seoul area. Hyung-soo will definitely take over the logistics branch of Tongyun Logistics in Seoul in the future. We want to find him a local girl in Seoul so that the couple can support each other and live happily together." said Kim Tae-hee.
Choi Sun-hee understood what Kim Tae-hee meant, and she also wanted Choi Sun-hee to clarify the rumor that Kim Hyung-soo was proposing to Gu Yeon-soo among the noble ladies and socialites in Seoul.
"I have met Chairman Gu's youngest daughter, Yeon-soo. She is indeed a very pretty girl, and is about the same age as Hyung-soo. Since you think Yeon-soo's family background is too high, I do have a good match."
"My sister Choi Soo-jin graduated from Ewha Womans University last year and currently works at Dong-A Ilbo. She doesn't have a partner yet. She may be a few months older than Hyung-soo. What do you think?" Choi Sun-hee asked.
Upon hearing this, Kim Tae Hee became more alert and immediately asked, "Sister Sun Hee? Is Soo Jin your biological sister or cousin?"
Choi Sun-hee was born in 1968 and is 38 this year. Choi Soo-jin just graduated from college and is at most 23 or 24. It is normal for Kim Tae-hee to be a little confused by the huge age difference between the two sisters.
"Xiuzhen is my half-sister. My father divorced my mother very early and later married KBS anchor Zhang Enying. Xiuzhen is the daughter of my father and stepmother, but she and I have a pretty good relationship."
"My father still loves me as his sister, so he arranged for her to work at Dong-A Ilbo as soon as she graduated. If Hyung-soo can get engaged to Soo-jin, it will also ease the tense relationship between our SA Group and Dong-A Ilbo," Choi Sun-hee said with a smile.
After Choi Sun-hee became the president of ABS TV, she never showed mercy to the false reports of Dong-A Ilbo. The news programs broadcast on ABS TV often accused Chosun Ilbo and Dong-A Ilbo of fake news, which gave Choi Won-seok a headache.
When his son-in-law Chen Zaican's New Han Media was on the verge of bankruptcy, Choi Won-seok only agreed to take back his daughter Choi Sun-hee and granddaughter Chen Yun-ju, and ignored his son-in-law Chen Zaican. Dong-A Ilbo's news stance has always been conservative, and it is keen to report negative news about the ruling party's opening of the National Assembly. It is not surprising that ABS TV and Dong-A Ilbo often have verbal battles in the public opinion field.
While Choi Sun-hee and Kim Tae-hee were discussing Kim Hyun-soo's marriage, Song Yi and Song Jingyan were discussing the financing plan for the Disneyland project.
SA Bank will provide financial support for the Disneyland project and will set up an institution in Puhai City to officially enter the mainland financial industry. SA Bank will not engage in foreign exchange and RMB business in the early stage, and will mainly engage in personal banking wealth management business, including personal accounts, deposits and related financial products of high net worth customers, including private equity funds, trust funds and insurance products.
If SA Bank sets up a branch in Puhai City, Song Jingyan, who is familiar with China's financial market, is undoubtedly the best candidate to be the head of SA Bank's China headquarters. However, considering that Song Jingyan and Li Yuan have been married for less than a year and have no children, whether Song Jingyan should go to SA Bank's China headquarters or not still needs to seek the opinions of her father Song Yuxi and her husband Li Yuan.
In the future, more and more Korean companies will invest in the mainland, and SA Bank is born at the right time to conduct business in the mainland. SA Bank's main customer group is multinational companies that develop business in both China and South Korea.
Xia Meiai's sister Xia Huiai, accompanied by Zhou Zhiyi, had already seen the real Galaxy S1 in advance. Zheng Jingang, head of SA Electronics Puhai Research Center, introduced the new technologies used in Galaxy S1 to Xia Huiai.
Due to the confidentiality agreement, Xia Huiai could not reveal the details of the Galaxy S1 phone to Xia Meiai, but she had already sold the Korean instrument electronics factory after returning to Korea and established an OEM factory in Yangcheng City, Guangdong Province, which was called Luxshare Technology Group.
After acquiring a local electronics factory in Guangzhou, Luxshare Technology Group is carrying out large-scale technological transformation in preparation for the full production of the Galaxy S1 series of mobile phones. Luxshare Technology Group has already begun recruiting a large number of skilled workers in Guangzhou.
If SA Bank conducts business in the mainland, Korean companies like Luxshare Technology Group will naturally be the target customers of SA Bank. Song Yi plans to use SA Bank to support upstream and downstream related companies in the SA Group's industrial chain, such as Luxshare Technology Group, in the mainland.
Seeing that Song Yi and Song Jingyan were almost done talking about their business, Kim Tae-hee called him over and asked him what he thought about the marriage between Kim Hyun-soo and Choi Sun-hee's sister Choi Soo-jin.
Song Yi was a little reluctant, Cui Yuanshuo was not a good father-in-law. When Chen Zaican was in trouble, Cui Yuanshuo stood by and watched.
Song Yi doesn't have many relatives in Korea, and Kim Hyung-soo is his only brother-in-law, so his marriage must be handled with great care. If Kim Hyung-soo encounters difficulties in business after marriage, and Choi Won-seok, as his father-in-law, doesn't care, then wouldn't this marriage be in vain?
Cui Shanji guessed what Song Yi was thinking, "President, although we are both father's daughters, my father treats me and Xiuzhen in completely different ways."
"When I graduated from college, I only invited my mother to attend my graduation ceremony, but my father held a grudge against me because of this little thing and refused to attend my graduation ceremony."
"Last year, when Xiuzhen graduated, my father took a leave of absence early, and the whole family went together to attend Xiuzhen's graduation ceremony."
"Since SA Group went public, my father has been trying to ease the relationship between him and Jae-chan, but Jae-chan is unwilling to pay attention to him. If Hyung-soo marries Soo-jin, my father will definitely use Dong-A Ilbo newspaper shares as a dowry."
"You have always wanted to break the monopoly of the three major newspapers, Chosun Ilbo, Dong-A Ilbo and JoongAng Ilbo. The marriage of Hyung-soo and Soo-jin is the key to breaking the monopoly," Choi Sun-hee said.
Song Yi thought about it and felt that Cui Shanji was right. "Then let's make an appointment and let the two young people meet first. If they get along well and are willing to have further contact, we can discuss the marriage. Otherwise, it will not work if we are too eager."
Cui Shanji was also very happy to see Song Yi agree to the marriage. She had already visited Kim Tae-hee and her daughter and was ready to leave with Song Jingyan. Song Yi personally sent Cui Shanji and Song Jingyan to the door of the ward.
Cui Shanji and Song Yi hugged and said goodbye. Cui Shanji hugged Song Yi and whispered, "You are so heartless. You threw me to ABS TV station and really ignored me."
"You have always been looking forward to having you visit my house to create some passion for us, but now you are pretending to be serious. This time I invite you to my house to discuss the marriage of Heung-soo and Soo-jin, you will be too embarrassed to refuse, right?" Choi Sun-hee's proposal made Song Yi distracted and he did not refuse.
Seeing the intimate behavior of Cui Shanji and Song Yi, Song Jingyan couldn't help but feel envious. On the way back, she couldn't suppress her curiosity and asked Cui Shanji, "Sister Shanji, you hugged Brother Yi so tightly just now, aren't you afraid that your husband will be jealous?"
Cui Shanji smiled and said, "Jaechan and I are already an old married couple. If he gets jealous over such a small matter, then he will be jealous forever. SA Bank setting up a branch in China is indeed a good opportunity."
"Korean banks have never set up branches in the mainland. You should have a good talk with Li Yuan and try to gain the understanding and support of your family. If you can make some achievements in China's financial industry, no matter who is elected president in the future, Korean companies will have to look up to you when they do business in the mainland. This will be your most solid power base in the future, and it will last much longer than being the president's daughter." Cui Shanji advised sincerely.
"Thank you, Sister Shanji, I understand. I will seriously consider it." Song Jingyan nodded, having made up her mind.
There was a power outage for a while today. It was really inconvenient to climb the stairs to the 20th floor in a high-rise community.
