Chapter 102: One Step Ahead
"Where did you get the news?" Chen Daojun couldn't hold it in any longer. This was clearly making things more difficult for him.
"I just heard it from the street," Li You said with a smile, "Representative Chen, you can believe it or not."
He no longer paid attention to Chen Daojun, who was a little emotional, but hung up the phone. Mou Xianmin put her hands around his neck and asked, "Is this true?"
"What do you think?"
Mou Xianmin's eyes sparkled, "Then Chen Yangzhe will be quick."
Li You lowered his eyes and looked at her, nodding slightly.
It survived the persecution during the Japanese colonial era, the Korean War, successive South Korean governments, and the great changes towards democratization.
Chen Yangzhe, a business tycoon who has survived the turbulent changes in the international economic situation in recent years and is still standing firm, is about to come to an end.
"What do you think Chen Daojun will do after he gets to know the news?"
"He will temporarily put down his work and go to Shunyang to fight with his uncles and aunts," Li You hugged the woman and stood up, "With Chen Daojun as a troublemaker, anyone who wants to inherit the estate will be skinned alive."
"Because Chen Yangzhe will change, right?" Mou Xianmin put her arms around his neck and wrapped her legs around Li You's waist. "What Chen Yangzhe did before was to pave the way for Chen Rongji and Chen Xingjun, and to clear the obstacles for them."
"But now he doesn't have much time. If he can't settle those things in a short time," Mou Xianmin was put on the bed by him, "I guess he will no longer insist on the eldest son inheriting, but will find an heir who can settle those things by himself."
"But the original road has been paved," she said with a smile, "Chen Rongji and Chen Xingjun already have the ability to fight back."
"Let them fight."
Li You pushed her down, got close to her face, and lifted her chin.
“So sweet?”
"Rose flavor," Mou Xianmin licked the lipstick on her lips, her eyes flickering, "I have something else, do you want to try it?"
"One is enough for tonight."
"Have you become stronger again?" Mou Xianmin yawned and drew circles on Li You's abdominal muscles with her fingers.
Li You smiled and thought that if he improved his physical functions a little, he would become stronger in all aspects.
I added a few new body functions last night. 14 points of body functions are already truly non-human, or it would be better to say superhuman.
He thinks he is already Captain America. Without a shield, his physical fitness may even be more outstanding in some aspects.
"Have you ever thought of moving Xiancheng Daily to Gangnam?" Li You hugged the woman, facing each other naked in the quilt.
"Move to Jiangnan?" Mou Xianmin narrowed her eyes and rested her head on Li You's arm. "That depends on my father."
“You’ve played computer games, right?”
"Me?" Mou Xianmin panted, "I've never played it before."
"While Chen Daojun is fighting in Shunyangli," Li You turned over and let Mou Xianmin lie on his left, "we will open the digital media city he imagined in Gangnam District."
Li You patted her on the shoulder and said, "Although this may cost me one-third of my real estate, if it succeeds, it will provide me with a large amount of cash flow in the next few decades."
"Then what do you want from Xiancheng Daily?" Mou Xianmin opened his eyes lazily, "Even if the Xiancheng Daily building only occupies a small piece of land, you can't give it to my father for free."
"You are you, and your father is your father." Li You stood up, "Of course there must be a reward."
"Opening a digital media city not only means that a large number of media companies and TV stations will have to look up to me, but more importantly, it means the power of public opinion."
Li You got out of bed and put on his clothes. "This is a valuable experience I learned from the late Deputy Minister Han."
"In the future, public opinion will be a sharp sword. I will feel at ease only if I hold it firmly in my hands."
“You want Xiancheng’s shares?”
"No?" Li You kissed her forehead gently.
Mou Xianmin looked at Li You in fascination, and nodded after a while, "I'll do as you say. I'll go and convince my father."
"That young man from Jiangnan Industrial provoked us!"
"Li You of Jiangnan Industrial declared war on us?"
"Li You from Jiangnan is amazing."
This is the change in the thinking of bosses of large and small companies in Seoul from yesterday to now.
When Li You returned to Jiangnan Industrial, he saw murderous intent on the faces of the members who came and went that had not been seen in the past few months.
He was quite satisfied. On the premise of ensuring loyalty, he still hoped that he could raise a group of loyal wolves rather than loyal but non-murderous pet dogs.
“President,” Yoon Hyunwoo stood up in front of his desk.
"What's the situation now?" Li You asked him, stroking his chin, "Let's talk about Zaihu and Dixin first."
"After the death of that employee, Tiger Faction has not taken any other actions," Yoon Hyun-woo reported in a serious tone, "President Zhang Shouji of Emperor Heart Entertainment invites you to a banquet at the Seoul Grand Hotel at noon today."
"Zhang Shouji?" Li You chuckled. "What else did they do yesterday besides helping Dou Ri and the others find a car?"
"Dou Ri said that the people from Di Xin wanted to treat them to dinner and massage in the evening as a token of their appreciation," Yin Xuanyou paused, "but Dou Ri refused."
"That's all?"
"That's all about Jae-ho and the Emperor's Heart," Yoon Hyun-woo checked his watch, "There are still three hours until President Jang Soo-ki invites you. Do you want me to reject him?"
"No, just go." Li You stretched out his arms. "How was the hospital last night?"
"The person who was following us reported back," Yoon Hyunwoo thought for two seconds, "Not long after we left, a nurse who went to change the dressing discovered the killer in the elevator, and the police went there that night."
“Are there any other reactions from other small companies?”
"Only the 'Viper' in the Garibong Cave reacted violently," Yin Xuanyou lowered his head, "The others gave up on intercepting us after the Tiger Faction gave way."
"The 'venomous snake' of Gary Peak Cave?"
"Yes, Brother Dou Ri and Brother Zhong Lie plan to rest for a day and go to the base of the Viper Group at night."
"Have they figured out the location?"
Yin Xuanyou nodded, "A police officer came to our door and provided the location and approximate number of the Viper Gang."
"Come to my house on your own initiative," Li You sat up straight, "What's your name?"
"Ma Xidao," Yin Xuanyou said with a strange expression, "The request he made to Dou Ri and the others is quite strange."
Li You knew it was this guy. The Viper Gang was one of the few forces in Gary Peak Cave that did not obey Ma Xidao. "He said he was sponsoring us as a friendly sponsor, and he would ask for a friendly price when he came to our store in the future."
"I'd really like to know how he took the initiative to come to my house," Li You felt that it was not that simple, because Cui Dou Ri and Xu Zhonglie were the people who hated the police the most in the entire Jiangnan Industrial.
Yin Xuanyou touched his nose, which was rare. "Dou Ri asked me to convey this to you."
He coughed and said, "Zhang Yishuai is right."
"These are Brother Dou Ri's original words."
There was a smile in Li You's eyes, and he knew that nothing would happen between Cui Dou Ri and Ma Xidao.
"President," Yoon Hyun-woo continued to report, "Brother Long told me... Ma Seok-do seemed to have convinced most of the people in Garibongdong in advance, so our people did not encounter much resistance when they went to Garibongdong."
"The boss who can be persuaded by Ma Xidao is a normal person," Li You nodded. "We didn't go there to grab territory. We just wanted to make a name for ourselves and leave. Jialifengdong is a shabby place..."
"People like the Viper Gang are courting death."
Li You looked at his watch and said, "You go and prepare first. I will go to Garibong Cave myself tonight."
"Then I'll go prepare your itinerary for a while." Yoon Hyunwoo bowed slightly and left the office.
The power distribution between Di Xin Entertainment and Jiangnan Industrial is very similar. Although they are powerful and have many team leaders, most of the power is concentrated in the hands of the president.
Compared with the almost corporate management of the Tiger Faction, Li You and Zhang Shouji have a better control over their own power.
Zhang Shouji was determined to develop the entertainment industry, and even his entertainment company has launched two famous idol boy groups. The reason for recommending boy groups is that the profits brought by boy groups are much higher.
There are also many young actors and singers, but they are not very famous.
Today, the government is vigorously supporting the real economy, and the entertainment industry can be regarded as one of the industries harmed by the current policies.
Di Xin Entertainment has been a bit dormant since three or four years ago, but thanks to the large amount of cash flow accumulated before, it is now almost out of the woods.
This year's 'Korean Wave' has begun to spread across Asia through boy bands.
Li Youke knew that in another year or two, when the economic situation improved, South Korea would begin to invest a lot of energy in the development of the entertainment industry.
Li You passed by two rows of people in black suits and a red carpet on the ground.
Going further in, there are two rows of receptionists wearing short skirts. The floor is the same red carpet, which goes all the way to the innermost private room.
This also reveals some of Zhang Shouji's character. He attaches great importance to appearances and loves to show off.
A middle-aged man in a light grey suit came up to greet him. He leaned forward slightly and said, "President Li, our president is waiting for you inside."
Li You nodded and took Yin Xuanyou straight into the private room.
Zhang Shouji, sitting at the main seat, was wearing a well-tailored dark grey suit with a silver collar pin on his collar. The surrounding decorations and atmosphere complemented his well-dressed image.
Zhang Shouji's brows revealed his shrewdness. When he saw Li You coming in, he took the initiative to stand up and greet him. His narrow eyes were narrowed, and there was often a noticeable smile on the corner of his mouth, which made him seem friendly and not on guard.
“It’s my first time meeting President Lee. He is indeed a famous young talent in Seoul!”
"President Zhang, you are too polite," Li You smiled and shook his hand. "I am honored to accept President Zhang's invitation today."
Regardless of whether it was just a polite remark or not, Zhang Shouji really benefited from it.
He said with a smile, "I originally wanted to have our company's artists come and have a drink with President Li, but unfortunately they are all ugly and the famous ones are all male artists."
He took the initiative to pour a glass of wine, "I'll drink it as a punishment for myself, as an apology to President Li."
After finishing the glass of wine, Zhang Shouji smiled even more, "President Li must be curious about my purpose today."
He waved to the man in light gray suit at the door, and the man took the initiative to hand over a plan.
"I originally wanted to wait until later before asking President Li for help." Zhang Shouji took the plan, "But now it seems better to tell President Li first."
after?
As soon as Li You heard it, he knew that "later" meant after the establishment of Kinmen. Zhang Shouji and Shi Dongchu had already peed in the same pool.
The whole day's riot at Jiangnan Industrial yesterday brought good results. Zhang Shouji, who was waiting to reap the benefits after the merger, came here on his own initiative.
Li You smiled and said, "President Zhang, you're welcome."
He took the plan handed to him by Zhang Shouji and opened it.
“.”
Zhang Shouji's job was still an entertainment industry plan, but the name sounded familiar to Li You, "SM Entertainment?"
"Just call it SM Entertainment," Zhang Shouji said seriously, "President Li might as well take a closer look."
After reading it, Li You closed the document. He said it was a plan, but in fact it was a potential analysis report.
"Why is President Zhang showing this to me?" Li You was indeed a little confused. "You want me to invest? Excuse me, but if you don't count nightclubs and the like, I have never been involved in the entertainment industry."
Zhang Shouji smiled awkwardly, "That's right, President Li."
He explained the reason, "Most of the artists in my entertainment company are trained by SM Entertainment. I couldn't refuse the founder's request for help, so I wanted to give it a try."
"Its chief producer is Lee Soo Man, who wanted to buy a piece of land in Apgujeong-dong, Gangnam District."
Zhang Shouji's awkward smile made Li You understand, "That land is in my hands now?"
"It's like this. Producer Li is very satisfied with the land, but the old man under President Li asked for too high a price."
He showed Li You the discussion about the land.
"This company just launched their first idol group two years ago. Although it was very popular, they couldn't afford that price."
