Korean TV series: King of Peninsula 1997

Chapter 218 Attention, Engagement

After Director Li announced Chen Yangzhe's will, the entire outer room fell silent.

Those who have some understanding of Shunyang’s current equity structure understand why there has been such fierce internal fighting in Shunyang in recent days.

Chen Yangzhe not only acquiesced, but even actively pushed his two sons to fight each other.

Those who wanted to get a piece of the pie in Shunyang would have to choose one of Shunyang's descendants. Even Chen Huarong, who tried to stay out of it, was surrounded by people with ulterior motives.

Li You and his group from Kinmen did not attract any attention, especially after Chen Daojun's family was publicly deprived of their inheritance rights by Chen Yangzhe.

Their uneventful condolences were completed smoothly. The person who came to see them off was Chen Daojun. Although he had lost the inheritance rights, he was still a member of the Shunyang Chen family and naturally had the qualifications to see off the guests as the host.

After the pleasantries, the people from Kinmen left space for Li You and Chen Daojun to discuss the matter alone.

"The battle for succession will become more intense," Li You handed him a cigarette, "What we need to do now is to grow stronger as quickly as possible, protect Future Electronics, and isolate those who are spying on Future Electronics."

Chen Daojun, who had almost never smoked, took a deep breath and coughed. "Not including us, I have seen four forces contact Chen Rongji and his three siblings this morning."

"Four." Li You narrowed his eyes. "Besides Tianxia Group and Daying Group, who are these two people from the political world?"

"People under Councillor Li Lianchang and President Kim have contacted my aunt Chen Huarong," Chen Daojun said with a serious look, "I think they will use their careers to seduce my uncle, Mayor Cui Changdi, who wants to take a further step."

Li You nodded calmly, "It's not surprising. Choi Changdi is now the mayor of Seoul, so he naturally wants to make further progress. However, he didn't have enough time to switch from the prosecutorial system to this path, so he needs this external help."

Chen Daojun sighed, "Grandpa just passed away, and these people can't wait to divide up his legacy. It's really..."

"You should have expected this, but the government's intentions are probably not that bad," Li You shook his head, "Although they want to control Shunyang, more importantly, they want a stable Shunyang. Chairman Chen's plan runs counter to theirs."

"After all, they are politicians at the center of public opinion, with countless people watching their actions, and every move they make will attract attention."

Li You sighed, "I guess this is also part of Chairman Chen's idea. Let the politicians act as opponents of Tianxia and Daying, so that these big companies cannot forcibly swallow up Shunyang bit by bit through mergers and acquisitions."

Chen Daojun nodded.

"We will be very quiet during this period," Li You said calmly, "Both Future Electronics and Golden Gate Group will have a chance to develop for a while."

"What if we wait until they can free themselves?"

Li You smiled and shook his head. "This period of time cannot be short. When they can withdraw their hands, I am confident that my situation is already established and they cannot pose a threat to us."

Chen Daojun was silent for a long time before he sighed, "In fact, if the Shunyang family could unite against the enemy, they would still be the most advanced chaebol group."

"Yes." Li You said calmly: "But is this realistic? If they don't seize the opportunity now and fight for Shunyang..."

"Even if they elect a president now, what should they do with the rest of the people? They will gradually become side branches, and then from side branches they will become insignificant people in a large family."

"We are both from the Chen family, but we have different bloodlines. How much hostility will we face?" Li You shook his head. "Have you forgotten how they see you?"

Chen Daojun smiled helplessly, "Now that things have come to this, I am actually a little sentimental."

"If you want to go far, you really have to go with many people," Li You threw the cigarette butt into the trash can next to him. "Like us in Kinmen, we can only become stronger if we combine all our resources together."

"I went to Chen Yangzhe's memorial service today," Chairman Jin of Tianxia Group asked his two sons standing straight in front of him while sitting in his office, "What did you notice?"

"Is there anyone worth paying attention to, or anyone who can help Tianxia Group?"

Chairman Jin leaned back in his chair tiredly, and his secretary tactfully stepped forward to pour him some tea.

He drank his tea slowly, with a sense of crisis in his mind. After Chen Yangzhe's death, his two useless sons fought so fiercely.
Both of his sons are capable people and are more than qualified to be heirs. Wouldn't the fighting between them be even more fierce in the future?

"Besides the people from Daying Group, there are Congressman Lee and President Kim," the eldest son thought for a moment, "We tried to win over Chen Dongji, and the people from Daying Group tried to get close to Chen Rongji, but Congressman Lee and President Kim seem to be competing with Chen Huarong, or the Emperor Choi Chang behind Chen Huarong."

"Cui Changdi is doing a good job as mayor, and he is Shunyang's son-in-law, so it is natural that he will be won over."

President Jin nodded and turned his gaze to his second son, "What about you?"

"In addition to these," the second son recalled with a frown, "I also noticed people from the Golden Gate Group."

"Kinmen Group?" The eldest son raised his eyebrows and said, "They do have potential, but it's just potential. Once we eat up a part of Shunyang, we can turn around and deal with them."

"After all, the Kinmen Group has too many constraints, and they simply can't let go and make a big splash in Seoul."

"Don't underestimate this group of black forces," the second son disagreed. "Now they can be said to be the controllers of the entire Seoul underground. This kind of power will always be of great use."

"Kinmen Group." Chairman Jin held the teacup and thought for a while. "I have met Shi Dongchu. He is a patient man. Under his leadership, perhaps Kinmen Group can really become a group second only to us and Daying."

"Is the problem with the vice president?" the second son asked cautiously, "I remember Chen Yangzhe mentioned this Li You in his will."

"He is in Seoul and has become a celebrity recently. However, I don't know what kind of deal he made with Chen Yangzhe. Chen Yangzhe is willing to give him half of Shunyang Semiconductor."

"That's right," President Jin laughed twice, "Didn't you notice that the three brothers and sisters of Shunyang's family accepted help from external forces including us?" "This is a very interesting thing. According to common sense, if an outsider wants to gain benefits from a group,
That is, if there is an invasion by foreign enemies, normally the blood relatives of the Chen family should unite to drive us out of the battlefield first, and then we can start to use commercial mergers and acquisitions to deal with them. "

President Jin shook his head. "But because of Chen Yangzhe's will, the three brothers and sisters of the Chen family each had their own agenda and did not unite as one because of our invasion."

Both sons frowned. Just as they were about to speak, a girl pushed open the door and ran in, "Dad."

"Oh Xiya," Elder Jin Hui was very fond of his little daughter as he was born at an old age. He put down the teacup in his hand and held Jin Xiya on his lap.

"Xi Ya, you say"

President Jin made up a story about what he just said, deliberately hiding the words Shunyang and Chen's family, "What's going on?"

"Did this old man who passed away do it on purpose?"

President Jin smiled and patted Jin Xiya, then asked the nanny to take her out to play.

He looked at his two sons again, each with a different look on his face. "Xi Ya was right just now. Chen Yangzhe must have done this on purpose. I don't know what stimulated him to do this.
But Chen Daojun, who seemed to be out of the matter, was the heir that Chen Yangzhe really wanted, and I guess Li You, the only outsider in the will, was the helper that Chen Yangzhe found for Chen Daojun. "

"So now we should turn around and deal with them or win them over?"

"No," Chairman Jin shook his head. "Daying has already joined the game. If we don't join the game, Daying will help Chen Rongji completely crush Chen Dongji. If Daying gets a part of Shunyang's industry, it will gradually surpass our Tianxia Group."

"Chen Yangzhe wants to buy time for Chen Daojun, so we should give them this time to see what these two people he has chosen can achieve with Shunyang Semiconductor and Golden Gate Group."

November 30th is also the day for the celebration jointly held by Kinmen Group and Xiancheng Daily. Li You and Mou Xianmin will get engaged on this day.

Li You and Mou Xianmin sent out invitations to the engagement party themselves. Most of those who received the invitations responded that they would come. Even if there were people with special circumstances, they would call Li You or Mou Xianmin to explain.

The host recommended by Mou Zhengxiong had obviously hosted such large occasions many times and was not at all stage frightened.

At this engagement banquet, the guests invited by Li You and Mou Xianmin were entering one by one. As the protagonist, Li You naturally had to receive these important people at the entrance of the banquet hall.

This engagement party was actually a rehearsal for Li You and his wife's future wedding. Li You also owned the largest digital media city in the entire Korean Peninsula, and there were countless reporters coming. They were all waiting in the hotel lobby, waiting to record today's event.

In the Digital Media City, the presidents of entertainment companies headed by Lee Soo-man were the guests with the lowest status. They were the first to arrive and some had even taken their seats at the last table.

The entertainment industry on the Korean Peninsula has just started to show signs of booming, and the top entertainment companies are almost monopolized by Lee Woo, with almost all of their presidents sitting here.

Li You usually does not publicize how great his influence is in the entertainment industry. Only those who are extremely observant can find that Li You's name appears on the equity distribution tables of many entertainment companies, and many of them are in the top few.

The first group of people from the political and business circles were naturally the people from the Kinmen Group, and of course, Li Zhongjiu was not there.

Several cars from the Kinmen Group stopped, and Shi Dongchu walked out with Ding Qing and Li Zicheng who were invited today. As for the others, they were not qualified yet.

Following the lead taken by the people from the Kinmen Group, others also began to drive up to the hotel entrance in luxury cars one after another.

The most famous guest was undoubtedly Lee Yeon-chang, a member of the Grand National Party and former Prime Minister of South Korea, who attracted a lot of attention to the wedding.

Don't forget that Li Lianchang is still the leader of the Grand National Party. He was almost elected president at the beginning of last year and is the politician who is fighting the most fiercely with the current President Kim.

His arrival made everyone who had been paying attention to this place gasp.

It’s true. Since Li Lianchang was willing to come, Li You dared to invite him.

This newly engaged young man is not afraid at all to get involved in the fight between two political giants.

Perhaps because of Li Lianchang's arrival, both reporters and outside observers were not so surprised by the person who appeared later.

Later, Cho Chang-sik, the senior prosecutor of the Seoul Southern District Prosecutors' Office, arrived with his two chief prosecutors and openly stood up for Lee Woo.

Zhao Changzhi was secretly delighted that he could get closer to Li Lianchang through Li You. He would just take sides. It was not the first or second time for him to do so.

Chen Daojun came to the scene as an executive of Future Electronics and also attracted a lot of attention. He was one of the only two members of the Shunyang Chen family present, even though he had no inheritance rights.

Seoul Mayor Choi Chang-di and his wife Chen Huarong naturally arrived as scheduled.

Next up is a group from the Jeonju Li family and so on.

Li You and Mou Xianmin did not invite many people who were not very qualified. This is not because they are polite at first but arrogant later, but a tradition of the Korean Peninsula.

The engagement banquet is called an engagement, but in fact, it is more of a communication among the guests than a formality.

A plain-looking car stopped at the entrance of the hotel. Just when the reporters were wondering who this big shot was, they saw that it was indeed an ordinary family of three who got out.

After they entered the hotel and were shielded from the eyes of the reporters, some of the more well-connected guests frowned and vaguely recognized him, "Is that General Yin Jijun?"

Some people who didn't know Yin Jijun took a deep breath again, "General? When did President Li... get to know someone in the army?"
