Korean TV series: King of Peninsula 1997

Chapter 317 Arrangement of follow-up
Li You quickly rushed back to Seoul. He did not stay in Jeju Island all the time, but had to go back to take charge of the center.

It was not yet December when we returned, and all matters on Jeju Island were left to Long Da. Ever since Long Da was arranged to go to Jeju Island by Li You, he has been very busy. There are indeed too many things to do.

Although Long Da is the so-called chief project leader and should not be responsible for so many things, Long Da is a very down-to-earth person, which is why Li You arranged him to go.

For him, being the general manager is not so easy, just take the communication problem as an example. In addition to the part of the planning team of Kinmen Real Estate that was retained by Li You to cooperate with Long Da to start preparing for the first phase of the project, Long Da also needs to negotiate in the middle, communicate with officials of Jeju City Government, and even go to the townships below to communicate with the head of each township.

Basically, the development of Jeju Island started from scratch. Long Da needed to prepare step by step. First, he had to communicate with the officials, and then report to the government departments after confirming that it was reasonable. He also had to determine the design drawings of the first phase of the project as soon as possible after the procedures were approved. Fortunately, the project team of more than 20 people under his command, Jinmen Real Estate, was full of talents, and these tasks went smoothly.

The investment funds from Li You and Kinmen Group were in place very quickly, but the bidding and construction team organized by the Jeju City Government was not fast. Many of the people were local residents of Jeju Island. They didn’t ask for a high price but there were a lot of miscellaneous things to deal with.

Li You also left a group of Kinmen Security personnel to serve as Long Da's so-called "employees", but Seoul was also short of people, so the Kinmen Security personnel could not be left here.

Before he left, most members of the alliance had already sent people to Jeju Island and began to renovate and operate Zhang Dacheng's former stores. Everything was under Li You's control.

These are the core members transferred to Jeju Island by Quan Jae-joon from Kinmen Security. They are specifically responsible for handling the affairs of the Jeju Island forces. Li You also knows that his power in Jeju Island is not stable enough. It is only because Zhang Dacheng is dead and there is no prestigious guy here that he can control Jeju Island with not many people.

Long Da also knew that Li You attached great importance to these projects, so he put in a lot of effort and took care of everything that needed attention in Jeju Island.

Besides, Long Dake has more than just a gentle and refined side. His underlying logic is similar to Li You's, and he still likes to convince people by force.

If there is anyone who violates the agreement or delays work, Long Da will directly send people to their door and make those who want to quibble to speed up the process.

This was something Li You specifically told him. He couldn't always be too gentle towards these officials and businessmen. He had to appear fierce and violent at times. This would remind those who had ulterior motives what kind of force Kinmen was, and would save a lot of trouble for the progress of the project.

Thanks to this style of doing things, during the time when Li You was away, the project had already started to transport materials in advance and prepare for construction. Long Da was so busy that he lost weight, and his originally chubby face became dry. The wind and sun at the seaside did make him look a little different.

Officially, the development of Jeju Island has been certified, and photos of Lee Woo and Mayor Kang have also been passed to many local bigwigs on the Korean Peninsula.

However, because of Li You’s previous shell company, this incident created a lot of official interest connections, and no official dared to stand up against Li You, and no one wanted to.

After all, Li You's strength is one thing, and on the other hand, Li You has done a good job and achieved common interests. Li You's influence in Jeju Island has quietly become very large.

Two officials from the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism were also interviewed and expressed optimism about the projects in Jeju Island. They believed that these projects would greatly promote the development of the entertainment and tourism industries on the Korean Peninsula.

As soon as these words came out, even the stock price of Golden Gate Entertainment rose a little.

In the President's office, Jin Minzhong listened to Secretary-General Quan's report and analysis of the matter and couldn't help but sigh, "Li You always has good things happen to him. Is this really luck?"

He sighed and answered his own question, "Some people are always ahead of the curve. Li You has done similar things before. He is obviously born with a good vision, but the first twenty years of his life were so mediocre."

Secretary-General Quan said cautiously, "President Nim, what about our attitude?"

Jin Minzhong did not rush to answer his question, but looked at Secretary Quan with a smile, "Secretary Quan, do you think Li You was born with it?"

Secretary-General Quan gave a bitter smile and said, "President Nim, there is no God in heaven. He will not help Li You integrate the forces of all parties and form a community of interests."

"Li You is indeed forward-looking and capable."

"You're right," Jin Minzhong said with a smile, "From what you said, you really admire Li You?"

"Who can help but admire him?" Secretary-General Quan bowed his head. "He is a bright new star on the Korean Peninsula, and judging by the current situation, he will not become a shooting star."

"That's true," Jin Minzhong nodded. "If we follow Li You's previous position, then allowing him to become powerful and difficult to control is not in the interests of our faction."

"But many of the things he did were consistent with my ideas. Do you understand what I mean?"

Kim Min-jung was indeed a far-sighted president. Whether it was entertainment policy or the North-South talks, they were all very important matters. Lee Woo, who came from the future, also knew what could bring benefits, and the two sides inexplicably came together.

"I understand..." Secretary-General Quan lowered his head.

"Calculate the time," Jin Minzhong narrowed his eyes, "He has to go back to Seoul in the next two days. Otherwise, if he leaves his base for too long, some sneaky people will jump out."

"Go back and meet Li You and find out his situation. There's no need for him to openly oppose Li Lianchang. After all, he is also a member of the Jeonju Lee family," Jin Minzhong narrowed his eyes. "I don't have the heart to run for the next election. You should help the people below to connect with Li You and see if you can get Li You's support."

"Okay," Secretary-General Quan nodded, "I'll make the contact right away."

Secretary-General Quan stayed and chatted with Jin Minzhong for a while before slowly leaving Jin Minzhong's office.

Back in his office, Secretary-General Quan took out his cell phone and called Li You, "President Li."

"Secretary-General Quan's call came at a great time. I just got off the plane," Li You said with a smile. "What's the matter?"

"Nothing," Secretary-General Quan laughed, "I just wanted to ask President Li if he's interested in having a meal together recently? I'll also invite my family, so it can be considered a gathering among friends."

Li You raised his eyebrows. Secretary-General Quan was sending a signal to get closer to him. He laughed, "Secretary-General Quan has said so. How can I refuse?"

The two of them set a time and hung up the phone. Secretary-General Quan looked up at the wall. He was just a person being pushed around.

Li You sat in the car that had just left the airport and put the phone into his inside pocket. His trip to Jeju Island was considered a complete success.

He was smoking, but the smoke could not cover the text on the panel.

[The storyline of "Outrageous: The Final Chapter" has been completed. 】

[Plot Mission: Non-Existent Morality (Completed)]

[Non-existent morality: After Zhang Dacheng's death, you occupied Jeju Island and became the new king of Jeju Island. At the same time, Dayou, who adhered to the last morality, avenged Zhang Dacheng personally, killed Nomura and Nishino of Huabishikai, and finally committed suicide.

Mission objective: Control the power of Zhang Dacheng on Jeju Island and become the new 'King of Jeju Island'. (Achieved)
Mission Reward: Special red entry 'King of Jeju Island' (collected)]

It can be seen that Otomo's progress is quite fast. In just a few days, he has really attacked the Hanabishi-kai and killed the president and vice president of the Hanabishi-kai.

Although Li You didn't know how this old man in his sixties or seventies did it, he still admired him.

He took a puff of cigarette and looked at the [King of Jeju Island: Your name is spread all over Jeju Island, and the awe of the forces on Jeju Island towards you has increased several times].

The effect is good. At least there is no need to worry about Jeju Island being continuously infiltrated by foreign forces.

The car was parked in the parking lot of Kinmen Group. Li You returned to the office smoking a cigarette and threw the cigarette butt into the trash can.

He had only sat down for a few minutes when someone came over, smelling the scent and hearing the noise.

Ding Qing strode in. He was wearing a loose suit, and the diagonal pattern of his tie humorously revealed his relaxed attitude.

"Brother!" Ding Qing's voice broke the silence in the office.

His attitude was not presumptuous, but made Li You feel quite comfortable. This could be considered as Ding Qing's personal charm.

Li You dropped the pen he had just picked up, with a smile on his face.

He stood up and motioned Ding Qing to sit on the sofa with him. "Your coming here makes the whole office lively."

The two smiled at each other. Ding Qing was very relaxed and just moved his butt and sat over.

Seeing Ding Qing sitting on the sofa, Li You picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Ding Qing. "Although I didn't hide my whereabouts, you came too quickly. Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Our Director Ding shouldn't be embarrassed to say it." Ding Qing laughed heartily, even with a bit of vulgarity, "Oh, our Chairman Li is really smart."

"I came here for two things this time," Ding Qing took a sip of tea, his face bitter, "I won't drink this tea for now."

He put down his teacup and said, "Let's talk about your matter first. It's more important."

Ding Qing said seriously, "Didn't you ask me to contact the arms dealers in Russia before? I have found a way."

"Maozi." Li You put down his teacup. This matter was indeed very serious. "What exactly is going on?"

"It's a long story," Ding Qing thought for a moment, "I'll just tell you the main points."

According to Ding Qing's description, this was a very large reselling gang.

Even as early as the 1980s, their gang's illegal arms trafficking was no longer a secret within the now-defunct behemoth.

In order to seek personal gain, they even bribed some of the people fighting in Afghanistan and secretly sent thousands of weapons from the battlefield back to the country for sale.

Before the collapse of the behemoth, due to the continuous deterioration of the social and economic situation, conflicts worsened in many areas. Different political factions and residents of different nationalities often engaged in bloody conflicts for their own interests. In order to fight the civil war, some illegal armed forces that emerged at this time tried every means to collect weapons and equipment. This gang really grew stronger at this time.

At that time, you could even drive that "scrapped" armored vehicle home with just a little money.

Therefore, the phenomenon of people purchasing Soviet weapons and equipment is extremely common around the world, and no one will check it out.

After the behemoth was disintegrated, this gang began to sell weapons openly and in large quantities. Surprisingly, the country that inherited most of the behemoth's mantle did not care at all.

Even in the recent Second Chechen War, the illegal armed forces used Soviet or Russian weapons.

"According to what you said," Li You raised his eyebrows, "this was clearly done by an insider."

He waved his hand, "I'm too lazy to ask about their origins, just arrange the time."

"Don't show up in person," Ding Qing reminded, "otherwise you'll easily get into trouble."

"I know," Li You nodded, "What's your business?"

Ding Qing relaxed again, "I heard about the Jeju Island incident and came to ask you for a job."

He said with a playful smile, "How about it, am I self-aware?"

It is not known how much logistics business Li You will get from the project he is developing on Jeju Island this time. Moreover, this is a long-term development project and each batch of projects requires logistics. Of course, Li You left it to his own Kinmen Trading and did not contract it out to the logistics companies that came to negotiate.

He looked at Ding Qing with a smile, "You are late. I have asked my secretary to send the project cooperation documents to Kinmen Trade."

Ding Qing looked at Li You, feeling quite frustrated. Li You did not say anything, but just drank tea and looked at him quietly.

The two of them stared at each other for a long time, and Ding Qing finally rolled his eyes and said, "Alright, alright, I'm one step slower than you again."

"That's not the case," Li You said with a smile, "Our Director Ding is quite enthusiastic this time."

"I'm not a child. I don't need your encouragement." Ding Qing waved his hand. "I'm leaving now."

"Wait a minute," Li You shouted at him, "You must pay attention to this project, just like you paid attention to the World Cup New Town, and you must improve the efficiency this time."

Ding Qing was startled when he heard Li You talking about efficiency. He turned his head and said, "Are you so optimistic about Jeju Island? I thought you were just putting nails there."

"I take it very seriously," Li You nodded affirmatively, "You should pay more attention and don't let your men neglect it."

He explained to Ding Qing, "The project is huge, and there will be more than one batch. After this batch is completed, we will have to invest in the development of the next batch of projects. A lot of materials will be purchased from all over the peninsula. This is also an opportunity for Kinmen's trade expansion."

Ding Qing nodded, "How much money did you invest in Jeju Island?"

"One hundred million dollars."

Ding Qing took a breath and asked, "So much right away?"

He thought about it for a while, "One hundred and forty billion won is really a big deal for you."

Li You took his surprise to heart and spoke again, "There are still many ancillary projects that can be developed on Jeju Island. If you have any partners willing to join, you can also bring their letters of intent, which can be regarded as bringing them in."

"You have to recruit a group of people," Ding Qing nodded, "otherwise the risk is too great."

Seeing that Ding Qing had some misunderstanding, Li You smiled helplessly. He paused and said, "In addition to the projects in Jeju Island, there are also things in Incheon that I have to talk to you about."

Seeing that Li You was about to continue speaking, Ding Qing, who was standing at the door, took a few steps back and sat on the sofa.

"Didn't you ask Zicheng to tell me before?" Ding Qing was a little confused. "It's okay to give some benefits to the Americans. Even the Incheon officials have no objection."

"That's just the current situation," Li You nodded, then shook his head, "Do you think it's time to expand this aspect?"

"Expand the scale." Ding Qing sighed, "I understand you. After all, you may not care about the annual profits now. But I am afraid that if we are targeted by the farmers' association, it will be troublesome."

"You're wrong," Li You put down the teacup, "I mean, do you want to bring in more things?"

"Not just meat?" Ding Qing frowned, "Anything else?"

"What do you think?" Li You looked at him. "What do you think about tobacco?"

"Tobacco?" Ding Qing thought carefully, "This thing may work, but it needs to be studied carefully."

Ding Qing sighed with a smile, his tone full of ridicule, "I was the one who pulled you in at the beginning, but I didn't expect you to see further than me. It's really true that comparison makes one feel nauseous."

"We have reached our current position partly because we have been pushed forward by the tide," Li You said with a smile, "Personal ability is only one aspect."

Ding Qing waved his hand, "Don't be so modest..."

He paused, then looked up at Li You, "You are raising the flags of Gyeonggi Province and Jeju Island at this time, and many people's eyes are on you. We can only try our best to help you with this matter, but more things have to be solved by you yourself, and we can't help you."

"I understand," Li You patted his shoulder, "Thank you very much."

When Ding Qing was about to leave, Li You called him again. Ding Qing turned around abruptly and asked, "Anything else?"

Li You picked up the tea again and said leisurely, "Xianmin and I are going to donate to a primary school. Do you and Zicheng's lover want to come with us? I'll donate some money to you guys and earn some face by doing good deeds."

It was Mou Xianmin who brought up this matter before Li You came back. After all, Li You, an entrepreneur who cares about the people, has not done good deeds in public for a long time. It would be nice to donate a playground and some facilities publicly.

Ding Qing grinned, "That's good."

He looked at Li You for a few times, "Are you okay this time?"

"It's okay," Li You laughed, "I won't call you again."

Ding Qing walked out hesitantly, and before opening the door he looked back at Li You in surprise.
