Chapter 648: Causing Unrest
The headquarters of this military-industrial enterprise was built on the edge of the city near the Fourth Division’s headquarters.
The car rolled over the last section of asphalt road and stopped after its tires rubbed against the ground.
This is said to be the headquarters building of JY Defense, but in fact it is just a small building with less than ten floors, and there are many vines climbing on the outer wall.
When Li You arrived by car, representative director Sun Junjiu led a group of management standing at the door and were very sensible and did not approach the car.
In the midday sun, Sun Junjiu stood in the porch with his hands hanging down, with the company emblem pinned to the collar of his suit. He silently watched Quan Jae-joon open the back door of the car, and immediately bowed the moment Quan Jae-joon opened the door.
"President Li, welcome."
Li You glanced at Sun Junjiu's back, which looked quite stiff under the fabric of his suit. His eyes swept over the dozen or so executives behind Sun Junjiu, whose bows were as neat as products on an assembly line.
Come to think of it, this culture is cultivated from childhood.
"Thank you for picking me up here, Representative Sun," when Li You said this, Sun Junjiu's shoulders visibly relaxed half an inch.
"President, shall I take you in for an inspection?"
"Just a simple walk," Li You told him casually, "We need to finalize the acquisition today."
"today?"
Sun Junjiu looked confused: "President... this acquisition process is not like this."
Especially since Li You has not even looked at the actual situation of the company, why is he starting the acquisition and even requires the acquisition to be completed today?
If it weren't for Li You's legendary reputation, he would even think that this was an ignorant idiot.
"It will indeed be much slower if we follow your process," Li You didn't care that he was standing there in a daze, and walked inside.
"But if the Kinmen Group acquires a small or medium-sized enterprise like JY Defense, the process can be shortened ten or a hundred times. Isn't Representative Sun aware of this?"
Following Li You's pace, Sun Junjiu pressed the elevator button for Li You and stretched out his hand to block the elevator door.
"It's clear," Sun Junjiu said stiffly, "but..."
Besides Lee Yoo, Jeon Jae Joon and Son Joon were the only ones in the elevator, as everyone else had taken other routes.
"Just what?" Li You smiled indifferently and said lightly: "Why, Representative Sun doesn't want to cooperate?"
"Cooperate, I will definitely cooperate," Sun Junjiu said timidly, "The division commander has told me that I must fully cooperate with the president to complete the acquisition."
The elevator door opened, and Li You stepped out first. He looked around the office environment and asked, "Where are the employees on this floor assigned to?"
Seeing that Li You didn't hold on to his wrong words, Sun Junjiu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He put on a flattering face and stood beside Li You and said, "Isn't this the chairman who is here to discuss the acquisition? You also know that the acquisition will make many people uneasy. In order to appease the employees, I gave them a day off early today..."
Sun Junjiu didn't expect that Li You would talk about the acquisition as soon as he arrived, but he did it subconsciously when he heard that Li You was coming.
Li You glanced at him with a half-smile and didn't pursue the inconsistency between his words.
"Where is the meeting room? Lead the way." Li You was not in the mood to slowly tour the headquarters of JY Defense, a military-industrial enterprise. It was destined to be just a springboard for Kinmen Group to develop its military-industrial business. Things that could be solved with money were not a problem now.
"Please follow me."
When the executives came to the conference room one after another, Li You and Sun Junjiu were sitting on chairs chatting and laughing. This scene made the executives dumbfounded.
Since Quan Jae-jun was standing to one side, they didn't dare to go forward, and since they didn't know what the two were talking about, they didn't dare to make any noise.
These JY Defense executives are not big shots, and most of what they know about Li You comes from rumors.
This rumored tough and insightful Chairman Lee, isn't his attitude towards their JY Defense Representative Sun Junjiu too good...
Could it be that Chairman Li has a keen eye and discovered that Representative Sun Junjiu is a one-in-a-million talent?
They just thought about it and didn't take it seriously.
On the contrary, there are many people who want to be appreciated by Li You. If they can jump to Kinmen Group, even if it is a subsidiary, there will be many prospects. However, Li You is having a private chat with Sun Junjiu now, and they cannot interrupt. Many people look at Sun Junjiu with envy.
Li You and Sun Junjiu were chatting when they glanced at each other casually. When they met his gaze, many people who were watching their conversation immediately avoided their gazes to avoid causing Li You's displeasure.
"Everyone, take a seat," Li You paused his chat with Sun Junjiu and waved his hand to the dozen or so executives standing on another floor, "I'm almost done talking to Representative Sun."
Sun Junjiu did not interrupt the whole process, but just listened silently to Li You's orders.
After Li You turned around, Sun Junjiu continued the previous topic and asked tentatively: "The chairman acquired JY Defense, so there will be competition in the military industry."
"Kinmen Group has to be ambitious to enter the military industry," Li You said calmly, "Without ambition, no matter what industry it is in, it will not be successful."
"What Chairman Li said is true," Sun Junjiu said, "but why is it JY defense?"
Sun Junjiu said frankly: "It's not that I have an objection to the chairman's acquisition of JY Defense, but our JY Defense is not even a medium-sized enterprise. Whether it's connections, resources, or status, how could the chairman be attracted to a company like us?"
He didn't quite believe that a Major General Liu Zhexiu could attract such a big crocodile to hunt him.
Li You smiled, but his words were quite hurtful. "What Representative Sun said is true. JY's defense is indeed half-baked in every aspect."
"But Representative Sun, have you ever thought that I want JY Defense not because it is so good, but just for the name?"
Private aerospace and military industry are two completely different things.
Li You wanted Dome Company to seriously develop a military-industrial enterprise on the peninsula, so naturally he had to do it cleverly and not too blatantly.
With JY Defense as a reason to expand the military business, it would be able to divert a lot of attention, whether it is in America or on the Korean Peninsula. At least in the eyes of some people, Li You did not initially establish Dome Company in the United States for "military use".
"I understand what Chairman Li means," Sun Junjiu roughly understood what Li You meant.
He sighed secretly. No wonder Li You acted like he was going to acquire JY no matter what the situation was. It turned out that the other party didn't like their little things.
"What is Representative Sun's attitude?"
Sun Junjiu was a little disappointed. "Just do as Chairman Li said. It's good that JY Defense can become a part of the Kinmen Group."
Li You didn't care about his expression. He just waved his hand casually, then looked at his watch. "Since Representative Sun said so, I feel relieved."
He stood up and smiled, "I called the acquisition team of the Kinmen Group on the way here. Representative Sun will cooperate with them in a while."
He didn't even look at the executives sitting not far away. He just patted Sun Junjiu's shoulder, who was looking down, and strode away with Quan Zaijun.
There was complete silence in the place until Sun Junjiu watched Li You's car leave from the window beside him and sat down on the chair with a sigh. Then the executives swarmed over.
"Representative," one of the skinny middle-aged men asked, "What did Chairman Li say? Did he mention how to arrange for us after the acquisition is completed?"
"No," Sun Junjiu scratched his forehead, "This is not what we need to consider now."
"What's that?" another person interrupted, "Could it be that President Li has given up on acquiring JY Defense?"
"On the contrary," Sun Junjiu shook his head, "Chairman Li has called the acquisition team of the Kinmen Group over, and the acquisition must be completed today."
The conference room fell silent again. After several dozen seconds, someone said in disbelief, "Deputy, this is not in accordance with the acquisition procedure!"
"Didn't you say that Chairman Li only decided to acquire JY Defense today?" The speaker analyzed, "What about the situation of factories in various places, the salary issues of employees, the company's debts, and orders."
"President Li didn't even ask about these things, how can he buy them directly?"
In fact, Sun Junjiu knew that what they feared most was that these executives who were used to making money from military orders would have no hope.
This is normal, because Sun Junjiu himself made a lot of money, and the bulk of it was given to Division Commander Liu Zhexiu.
As for what the products are like, what do the soldiers who use them feel?
That’s not important. What’s important is that only when the products are broken will there be the next batch of orders. With such good quality, how can their military industrial enterprises make money?
"It's useless for you to tell me this. I had the same reaction as you when I first heard it," Sun Junjiu spread his hands, "But this is something that Chairman Li decided. A big shot like Chairman Li might just think that JY Defense is an interesting toy and just want to buy it to play with. Why should he care about these things?"
Looking at the executives who were gagged by these words, Sun Junjiu shook his finger and said, "The company's situation is right there. The acquisition team of the Golden Gate Group will be here soon. Everyone should cooperate well and follow the rules when doing things. Don't cause any trouble."
"This acquisition is not something we usually do, so don't think about making money from it," he said in a deep voice. "With Chairman Li's methods, no government department dares to make things difficult for the Kinmen Group. Since he said that the acquisition will be completed today, the acquisition process must be completed today."
"If any of you makes a mistake, don't blame me for not caring about him and cutting ties with him."
The acquisition process went very quickly, and just as Li You said, it was completed on the same day.
The news that the Kinmen Group had acquired a military-industrial enterprise called 'JY Defense' was not spread until the next day.
It wasn't even something publicized by the Kinmen Group, it was just that someone with ulterior motives discovered that there was an additional company, 'JY Defense', in the public list of subsidiaries.
But such an event that was not even publicized caused a sensation in Seoul.
"Li You is going to get involved in the military industry!" Jin Jianying was quite shocked when she found out: "Is he so bold? He just helped Daying Group snatch Daying Ocean from Tianxia Group, and now he's planning to start a business in the military industry?"
"This intention to strike at our Tianxia Group is too obvious," Jin Jianying's eldest son Jin Yongjun frowned tightly, "but your problem has not been resolved yet. If we act without authorization, it might lead to revenge from Li You."
Although Daying Group has completed the acquisition of Daying Ocean, the matter involving Zhu Mengyuan, the former head of Daying Ocean, and Jin Jianying, chairman of Tianxia Group, is not over yet.
Zhu Mengyuan is still under investigation, and Jin Jianying is secretly doing her best to "rescue" him.
Otherwise the fire would really burn Jin Jianying.
Before Daying Ocean was acquired by Daying Group, Tianxia Group illegally acquired some of Daying Ocean's core industries through Zhu Mengyuan. Jin Jianying has been arguing with Zhu Mengyong, chairman of Daying Group, about this matter and does not want to return those core industries.
But Daying Ocean was acquired by Daying Group, which assumed all of Daying Ocean's debts. However, Tianxia Group did not have to worry about any debts for the industries acquired through Zhu Mengyuan. How could Zhu Mengyong endure this?
"Why don't we do this first?" The second son Jin Shengjun said, "We need to focus on dealing with Daying Group and ensure that the part of Daying Ocean that we acquired can remain in our hands."
"It's already difficult enough to deal with the main camp, and if we add the Golden Gate."
He didn't finish his words, but everyone else present knew what was going on.
After a while, Jin Jianying smiled bitterly and said, "Let Li You do his job."
"Have you ever thought about what Li You would be like if things went well? If he didn't have full confidence and preparation, how could he suddenly acquire a small or medium-sized military enterprise?"
"Father is right," Jin Yongjun echoed, "If the Kinmen Group is allowed to expand in the military industry, then the Kinmen Group will have a huge impact on the Korean Peninsula."
"What should we do then?" Jin Shengjun thought his father and elder brother were making fun of him. "Are we going to have to fight on two fronts again under such pressure?"
"Facing the Daying Group and the Kinmen Group at the same time, what we did before was not reasonable, and we may be caught with evidence," he said in a deep voice, "Who will be responsible for this uncertain future? If the evidence is really caught, will Big Brother go to jail?"
"Kim Sung-jun!"
"Enough," Jin Jianying sighed and waved his hand, and the two brothers who were on the verge of a fight immediately quieted down.
"Xi Ya," Jin Jianying looked at Jin Xi Ya who had been silent, "What do you think?"
"Me?" Jin Xiya pointed at herself and felt a little embarrassed after getting the definite answer. She didn't want to talk about these things in front of her two brothers. She still wanted to maintain family harmony.
At Kim Jae-young's request, Kim Hee-ya still didn't speak.
"I really don't have any good ideas, Golden Gate Group."
Jin Xiya shook her head. She felt that it would be great if both parties could cooperate, but the obstacle was that there was really no possibility of cooperation between them.
Because no one wants to threaten the status of the corresponding industry, and everyone wants to become the pillar of an industry.
