Now it was Li Chongming's turn to worry.
China is not like South Korea; Lin Chen might not give him that much face.
No, he definitely wouldn't give face to others. Perhaps he was the one who orchestrated this scheme to fleece people; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to gather the strength of three countries.
But damn it, you've practically plucked all the sheep dry!
This time, Lee Chong-ming did all this entirely for Samsung's sake.
It's no longer a matter of money. If the Three Kingdoms crisis cannot be resolved smoothly this time, then this Korean power will be finished, and anyone can come and kick it while it's down.
Samsung, a prestigious company, where is it supposed to save face?
Since there's no point in talking about face with Lin Chen, then we can only talk about interests.
I heard that Lin Chen is a money lover, and his nickname is "Consulting Fee of Five Million". In that case, let's give him fifty million, or even one hundred million if necessary.
I think there shouldn't be any problems then.
So, the head of the Li family took out his phone and personally called Lin Chen.
"Hello, Mr. Lin, I am Li Chongming."
"Master Li, I've long admired your name!"
"I'm just an old man, nothing special, Mr. Lin. You should know why I'm calling you today, right?"
"I can guess a little bit, it's about Bangzibao, right?"
"That's right, Mr. Lin. I'll pay you 100 million in interest in advance, and you withdraw your money from Bangzibao. How about that?"
"Heh, Patriarch Li, aren't you underestimating me? Do you think I, Lin Chen, am the kind of person who's only interested in money?"
Li Chongming frowned slightly, as if he thought the money was too little.
"President Lin, let's not beat around the bush. Name your terms."
"Patriarch Li, I have a plan here. I wonder if you would be interested?"
"Oh? What plan? Tell me about it."
"Currently, three banks are cooperating with our Huasuan Wealth Management platform, aiming to rapidly expand their scale and join the ranks of the top banks in the Xiaorizi (Little Life) sector. Mitsubishi Bank has already achieved this."
I would like to ask you to relinquish some of your Korean share to help the other two banks also join the top tier of banks.
"Mr. Lin, isn't Samsung losing way too much money like this?"
"Patriarch Li, please don't be in a hurry, let me finish."
"Okay, please continue."
"Once these three banks have joined the top tier of Xiaorizi's banks, I will continue to negotiate cooperation with other banks on Xiaorizi's platform, allowing them to offer more wealth management products, and then..."
Li Chongming's pupils contracted, and he couldn't help but speak up.
"You want to steal all of Xiao Ri's daily savings?"
"What nonsense are you talking about, Patriarch Li? How could I be the kind of person who cheats people out of money? It's just that ours is a virtual currency after all, and it all depends on the internet. It's normal for there to be network fluctuations or something, right?"
"Hehehe, Mr. Lin, you originally intended to use this tactic against us Koreans, didn't you?"
"No! Absolutely not! Patriarch Li, please don't wrong me! I'm actually quite friendly towards the Koreans."
"Look, after this merger, Xiao Rizi only gained half the market, while Bangzi gained twice the market. And Xiao Rizi has three partners, while Bangzi only has Samsung. Besides, I didn't cause you any trouble after you replaced Choi Dae-sung."
"What you said is true, Samsung did benefit."
"Right? Actually, my life motto is, harmony brings wealth."
Li Chongming rolled his eyes, thinking to himself, "I don't believe you for a second. You little bastard, you just saw that you didn't have a chance to mess with us Koreans, so now you're turning around and having your own little life."
"President Lin, aren't you afraid I'll reveal your plans?"
"Patriarch Li, aren't you afraid I'll spread the word throughout the entire Korean peninsula that your Li family has been tipping off the young master?"
"Are you threatening me?"
"Haha, same to you."
Li Chongming thought to himself, if Lin Chen really exaggerated the matter and spread it throughout South Korea, then the reputation of the Li family would be ruined.
You should know that the Koreans and the Japanese are sworn enemies.
Even before World War II, Little Rizi was already ambitious, wanting to become the king of all Asia.
In 1910, the Little Days conquered the Big Bang Empire, turning it into a Little Days colony.
It was not until the end of World War II that it regained its sovereignty.
During the Little Days' 35-year reign, especially during World War II, they committed unforgivable crimes against the people of the Big Bang.
(I won't go into details here; interested readers can search for it themselves.)
Therefore, the people of the United States and ordinary people are like enemies meeting with intense hatred; in the United States, boycotting Japanese goods is a consensus among everyone.
Even Uniqlo couldn't stay in business in Seoul and went bankrupt.
Therefore, if news really does spread that the Lee family is pro-Japanese, even if Samsung is very powerful in South Korea, it will still face boycotts and the losses will certainly be significant.
"President Lin, I promise you, and I hope you will keep your promise."
"Don't worry, I'll withdraw the money right away. But Master Li, it shouldn't matter if the people of the Celestial Empire take a little advantage of us, but I can't do anything about their money."
"Of course, Samsung can afford to lose this much money."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Chen called Zhang Yiming.
"Old Zhang, go and collect all the money we have in Bangzibao."
"Huh? Boss, that's a lot of interest for today, and you've already collected it all?"
"There's no way around it. That old man from the Lee family at Samsung is too amazing. He guessed everything. It's pointless to keep playing like this. Let's change our target and stir things up in the small town."
"Okay, I'll go right now."
"Hey, wait a minute."
Lin Chen stroked his chin, thought for a moment, and then said.
"So, many of our downstream suppliers on Pinduoduo and Douyin Live are small businesses, right? You can spread the word and let them take advantage of the deals. But remember, don't let anyone know that we taught them to do this."
"Okay, no problem."
After hanging up the phone, Li Chongming breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, the matter was settled, and Samsung resolved the issue. From now on, no one would dare to provoke Samsung again.
A tycoon company fighting against the top powers of three kingdoms—this kind of plot would be incredibly explosive anywhere.
Lin Chen's request was not difficult to fulfill, because he had already promised the Three Pounds of Pig Oil Bank that he would help them upgrade their level. Now it was just a matter of adding another Postal Savings Bank.
Moreover, he was also very interested to see what kind of chaos would engulf Xiao Rizi's life after Lin Chen's plan succeeded.
For no other reason than that, back then, when the Little Days conquered the Great Bang Empire, in order to implement their rule, the Little Days moved all the original members of the Great Bang Empire's royal family to the Little Days and placed them under house arrest, but in reality, they were subjected to inhumane treatment.
The Great Stick Empire at that time also had another name: the Lee Empire!
