Chapter 1248

In a golf club hotel in the east of Martha's Vineyard Island, which is contracted by westero company.

Nine o'clock in the morning.

Chen Qing and an assistant push the door into a conference room in the hotel. All the South Korean plutocrats who came to North America this time have arrived. Seeing Chen Qing alone, all the South Korean plutocrats at the scene are surprised and dissatisfied.

Chen Qing and James Leibold were the main hosts for the first two days.

Even if we know the position of this woman around westrow, today should be a more important meeting for the South Koreans who are used to the preference of boys over girls. The absence of leibulde makes them angry that they are despised.

Jin Yuzhong, the gray haired founder of Daewoo Group, with a pair of black framed tortoiseshell glasses, sat down with Chen Qing and looked at the door of the conference room. Seeing that no one came in again, he asked, "Miss Chen, isn't Mr. Leibold here today?"

Chen Qing slowly put a Nokia mobile phone at hand, and put a blue folder in front of her. Finally, she put her hands crossed on the broad conference table, nodded and said with a smile, "we have known each other's attitude in the past two days' three meetings. Now, all kinds of bad news are constantly coming from your country. I don't think you are in the mood to continue talking. Therefore, according to my boss's instructions, if we suspend the talks temporarily, you can deal with more urgent matters. "

Stop talking about it?!

To make sure you heard me right, some people in the meeting room almost stood up and patted the table.

You know, after close private consultation, they have planned to make some appropriate concessions in order to obtain the assistance of the westero system.

Now, they don't talk about it all of a sudden. How can they do it?

After a moment's silence, Jin Yuzhong of Daewoo Group once again said, "Miss Chen, are you sure this is Mr. westrow's decision?"

Chen Qing nodded: "that's right."

Hearing the speech, Jin Yuzhong's expression was uncertain for a moment. He took a look at the other people and finally got up first and walked out with his secretary without saying a word.

Later, Zheng Mengjiu of Hyundai Group got up and left the conference room.

The first and second chaebol leaders in China all got up and left. The remaining five chaebols, such as Samsung, LG and SK, looked at each other and saw Chen Qing sitting on the floor at the conference table without any other follow-up, so they walked out of the conference room one after another.

When there was no one else in the meeting room, Chen Qingcai finally opened a folder she had just brought in and found a walkman. She put on her headphones, looked through the documents while listening, and occasionally wrote something down with her pen. After a few minutes, she said to Lily favel, who was always behind her: "lily, guess what, the boss of the seven plutocrats this time How many people have contacted us in private? "

Lily favel was very curious about what Chen Qing was listening to. She thought about it and said with a smile: "two or three. SK has been the most active in recent meetings. It must be one. In addition, I think there will be LG, because these two companies are not big in semiconductor and LCD screen business, so it doesn't matter to give up. "

Chen Qing nodded: "smart."

Lily favel smiles. She changes her posture in the Secretary's seat behind Chen Qing, leans forward a little, and says, "but it certainly doesn't meet your expectations."

"Yes," Chen Qing said, "besides, didn't you just say two or three, guess one more?"

Lily favel thought for a moment and said, "I think it should be one of Hyundai and Samsung. Although the scale of the electronic industry is also very large, it is not the core of modern automobile industry, and it is nothing to give up. As for Samsung, the share of its electronics business is the heaviest. On the contrary, it will become the weakness of this company. If it does not cooperate with us, it may go bankrupt in the next few years. "

Chen Qing once again issued a voice of praise, said: "lily, you are enough to go to the boss there as an assistant."

Lily favel didn't take up this topic. In theory, Chen Qing is actually an assistant of Simon, who is responsible for helping the superior man take care of all kinds of Asian affairs. At first, she was assigned to Chen Qing and Lin Su as a waitress, but now she is lucky to be an assistant of Simon westero's assistant.

So he changed the topic: "Miss Chen, I remember you and I said a Chinese idiom, it's called killing chickens to show monkeys. I think Daewoo is very suitable to be a monkey."

"One more point."

Chen Qing said that when she heard an eavesdropping conversation between Jin Yuzhong of Daewoo Group and Ju Benmao, the leader of LG, in the Walkman, she wrote down a few Chinese characters on the Korean document in front of her, which happened to be what Lily said.

Make an example of others.

After the writing, Chen Qing also stirred up some sneers.

Those guys are probably used to being local snakes in South Korea. There are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys are called kings. Therefore, they don't want to understand what the name Simon westero really means.

According to Chen Qing's information, even if the Korean won's exchange rate of 800:1 against the US dollar before the crisis broke out, the total scale of all businesses in South Korea, such as automobile, steel, machinery and electronics, is only more than US $30 billion, less than one tenth of that of igritte, which ranks first in the market value of Westeros.Not to mention now.

According to the controlled exchange rate of 2000 won to the US dollar announced by the South Korean government, the depreciation rate of the won has reached 60%. Similarly, the market value of Hyundai Group is only over US $10 billion in US dollars.

In fact, if there is no westero system, which can be called an extraordinary giant, the tens of billions of dollars of Hyundai Group is indeed among the leading enterprise giants in this era.

That's the problem.

My boss takes a fancy to this small dish in South Korea. As far as Chen Qing is concerned, it's better to lay out more in China.

China has great potential for growth.

With a little development over the years, the volume has easily surpassed that of South Korea, and will only be far away in the future. South Korea, on the other hand, is too small. It is not only in the awkward zone between China and Japan, but also remote controlled by the United States.

Therefore, who is qualified to handle it here?

After waiting for a moment, Chen Qing's Nokia mobile phone, which was deliberately placed on the conference table to give a hint, rang.

Pick up and answer.

As lily farwell expected, the first is sk.

Both the situation of SK group itself in South Korea and the attitude of Cui Zhongxian, the head of SK group, at the three meetings in recent two days mean that the chaebol is in urgent need of the support of westerlow system.

Sk first started as a textile company, and then rose through the petrochemical industry. In the 1980s, SK built its second group pillar business in the field of communication. The first digital signal CDMA communication network in Korea was built by SK communication.

Similarly, under the influence of South Korea's semiconductor trend of "one box of chips for one ship of ore" in the 1970s and 1980s, SK, like many other chaebols, joined in semiconductor and other electronic businesses. However, this aspect is very weak, far from being comparable to the semiconductor business scale of Hyundai and Samsung.

Then there are the years.

Because of the Cui family's daughter's family, former president Lu Taiyu of South Korea was investigated by Kim Yong San's government, and was finally sentenced to 17 years' imprisonment. Along with SK, the petrochemical industry, one of its core businesses, was almost encircled by Hyundai, Daewoo and Samsung, and gradually retreated. In recent years, the government of Kim Yong San has also set many obstacles to the communication industry, which is strictly controlled by the state.

Now, it is the most serious economic crisis in South Korea.

If we can't get strong foreign aid, it's hard to say whether SK can survive the next few years. Since we are looking for a backer, it is absolutely the best choice for SK to turn to the westero system.

Then.

Second, modern.

exchange good books and pay attention to VX official account. Now pay attention, can receive cash red envelope!

Third, Samsung.

Lily favel made a mistake, LG.

In the eavesdropping recordings Chen Qing received in recent days against the leaders of a group of South Korean plutocrats, Ju Benmao of LG and Jin Yuzhong of Daewoo Group, the abacus is crackling. Obviously, they don't mean to know current affairs as Junjie.

After making another appointment with the leaders of Hyundai, Samsung and SK, Chen Qing quietly listened to the wiretap again, and then left the conference room with lily favel.

The next meeting is scheduled for tomorrow. Before that, Chen Qing has to communicate with her boss.

Take a bus back to a property owned by her boss in the north of Martha's Vineyard Island, and come to a study. Chen Qing quickly connects her boss's video call.

It's more than six o'clock in the morning in Los Angeles.

The video is connected, and Simon is jogging on the treadmill in his sports clothes.

Looking greedily at her boss's chest and abdominal muscles under his vest, Chen Qing asked with a smile, "boss, have you seen the eavesdropping recordings I sorted out?"

Simon slowed down some of the treadmill speed again, did not look at the camera side, just nodded: "yes."

South Korea's chaebol leader has entered the Golf Club Hotel on Martha's Vineyard island. Although he is not completely defenseless, with the eavesdropping ability of the private intelligence team of the Westeros family, let alone his home court, those people can't escape.

Simon has no moral burden.

Business competition has never been warm, let alone to his present level.

Chen Qing was even more excited about this. She felt like "mission impossible". She put up three fingers and said, "I just sent those people away. Then she received three phone calls. The boss guessed which three are they?"

Simon knew more than Lily favel, so he guessed better. He said casually, "Samsung, Hyundai, sk."

Chen Qingmei eyes curved: "it seems that the boss attaches great importance to Samsung."

When it comes to South Korea's chaebols, the first reaction of later generations is basically SamSung group, which accounts for 20% of South Korea's GDP. But in fact, in this era, Hyundai is the number one, Daewoo is the second, and Samsung can only rank third. Even last year's semiconductor price plummeted, resulting in a sharp drop in revenue and profits, and the trend of being overtaken by the fourth LG.In this meeting, SK, the fifth largest chaebol in South Korea, was all present. There are two other chaebols, both of which are in the top ten. They are Hanjin group, the seventh one mainly engaged in shipping and aviation business, and Hanhua group, the ninth one engaged in petrochemical machinery.

The last two families are just making up, not making up.

Because the two electronic businesses related to the theme of this meeting are dispensable. However, Simon is very interested in the two companies themselves, whether they are shipping, aviation or machinery and petrochemicals. In particular, Hanjin's main shipping business and Hanhua's machinery are the key points of westrow system's next layout in Asia.

This time it's a touch first.

Chen Qing can see the importance he attaches to Samsung from her casual ranking. Simon is not surprised, but he doesn't admit or deny it. He directly begins to command: "next, the key point of negotiation between you and the three companies is to buy out Hyundai's electronic business and integrate with sk. At the same time, SK and AOL cooperate in a mode similar to AOL and China Telecom. For Samsung, isn't South Korea always fighting for Kia? You can promise to help Samsung win Kia on the condition that we get at least half of the shares of Samsung Electronics. At the same time, we guarantee that we will not interfere in Samsung's auto business in the future and only supervise the electronics business, but the control will still belong to the Li family. "

To buy out modern electronic business and integrate with SK is to build SK Hynix ahead of time.

Sk's cooperation with AOL naturally aims to enter the ISP field of South Korea.

said, Korea's Internet speed ranked the highest in the world, but at this stage, even if the first wave of Internet bubble in North America has broken down, the mainstream of South Korea uses the 64K speed connected by modem. This is mainly due to the regulation of Korean telecom industry.

In the 1990s, South Korea has been among the developed countries with a per capita GDP of US $10000. That's right, but in fact, many aspects are still very closed, such as movies, finance, telecommunications, etc., which were forced to be fully opened after 1997. In the end, in addition to the prosperity of the film industry, many other fields became colonies of overseas capital.

Chen Qing can understand his boss's arrangement about Hyundai and sk. When she heard Samsung's question, she didn't respond to it for a moment: "boss, aren't you not optimistic about the traditional automobile industry? Why should Samsung win Kia?"

Simon said: "it's because I'm not optimistic that Samsung won Kia, which can tie Li Jianxi's energy to the auto business."

Samsung's biggest decision-making mistake in the 1990s was to force its way into the Korean auto industry, which has been divided up by Hyundai, Daewoo and Kia by more than 80% of the market, and finally ended up losing more than $3 billion. The subsequent negative effects have been pestering the Lee family for many years.

This time, since Li Jianxi likes cars so much, Simon of course has to help him to play more.

However, winning Kia, which has many years of experience in the automotive industry, may make Samsung make some achievements in the automotive industry this time.

But Simon doesn't care.

The core is to fight for more control of Samsung Electronics.

As for all of them, Simon is actually able to get them, because according to Samsung's recent share price and the exchange rate of the won against the US dollar, the company's market value is only about US $3.9 billion, less than one percent of its peak market value of more than 500 billion in 20 years. With the capital strength of the westero system, it's OK to eat them all at once.

The problem is that Simon doesn't have the energy to take care of it by himself, and he doesn't have a suitable team on hand. Of course, Samsung's Li family will manage it by themselves.

Simon is just going to stand behind the scenes and be a worker.

Of course, in order not to let the Li family completely control Samsung Electronics, we should give another car business, share each other's energy, and facilitate the penetration of the Westeros system. As for the integration of chaebols in South Korea, the automotive business will inevitably have a relevant impact on the electronic business. Since we have seen in advance, Simon can certainly make relevant preventive measures.

Chen Qing understood, and once again determined that her boss really paid more attention to Samsung than she thought. It seems that I have to spend more time next.

Considering this, Chen Qing finally asked, "boss, Daewoo and LG, what shall we do?"

Simon said: "Daewoo is used to set an example to others, LG. Next, when they take the initiative to ask for help, they will be incorporated."

Chen Qing laughs and turns over the document in front of her in the conference room of the Club Hotel and shows it to Simon: "boss, we think of a piece."

Simon saw Chen Qing holding up the four Chinese characters in the blank space of the document, saying with a smile, "smart."

I didn't say much.

There are differences between them.

Simon just remembers that Daewoo Group is the worst chaebol in this crisis. It ranked second in South Korea, but it collapsed completely in the end, worse than Kia, which ranked seventh. Kia was acquired by Hyundai later, and the brand still continued and recovered, while Daewoo completely disappeared. Jin Yuzhong, the leader of Daewoo, fled the country before the collapse of the consortium. He was wanted all over the world for suspected large-scale financial fraud, and finally returned to China at the age of 70 to face trial. He died in depression.Compared with South Korea's chaebol giants who have been handed down for generations, Daewoo Group is one of the few large chaebols that directly completed the whole process of establishment, prosperity, decline and extinction in the hands of its founder.

After finalizing the general framework, the two talked about some other details, and Chen Qing reluctantly ended the video call. In recent days, there has been a lot of excitement around South Korea, but she has a lot to do.
