Korean TV series: King of Peninsula 1997

Chapter 392 Terror Attack
The situation continued into the next day.

The sky of Seoul was covered with not-too-thick dark clouds, and the streets were filled with a depressing atmosphere.

Even the entire outline of Seoul appears blurred under the gloomy sky, and the photos taken are naturally cold in color.

Li You lazily put his legs on the desk. The sofa had been tidied up last night. His shirt had a few buttons open, revealing part of his strong chest muscles.

"President," Jeon Jae-joon said as he stood in front of his desk, "We have checked the scene and it was blown up very cleanly."

"But," Quan Jae-jun frowned, "However, after Cha Tae-seok completed his operation last night and returned the sniper rifle, he took Park Hyo-jeong and Zheng Xiaomi and left Seoul."

"Normal," Li You waved his hand. "We were just doing a deal at first. Let him go after he's done his job."

"Will he then?" Jeon Jae-jun's eyes narrowed, "betray us?"

"What good would it be to betray us?" Li You tilted his head and looked out the window. "His last mission was to kill an important official who betrayed the interests of the country. He was then retaliated against and his wife and children all died."

"How did you say the information about him was leaked?"

Li You sneered, "But it's possible that someone could find out about him and then kidnap the girl."

He glanced at Jeon Jae-joon, "Where did he move to?"

"." Jeon Jae-jun looked a little strange, "The flight address is Jeju Island."

"That's even better," Li You waved his hand. "Cha Tae-seok has no intention of leaving our sight. We should arrange more personnel near their new home to prevent any blind people from doing so, but don't disturb their normal lives."

"I see." Quan Zaijun lowered his head, "What about Tanayon? Should we keep him?"

He felt that Tanayon's mental state was really worrying.

Liking to kill people is one thing, but Tanayong doesn't like to be a killer and kill ordinary people. He is keen on fighting with those who are good at skills and killing those bigwigs who are good at skills or have high status.

Normally, when he can't find those with good skills, Tanayong will deliberately create opportunities for himself to face off against many. For example, last night, there was a team of people who were going to follow Tanayong.

But this slightly crazy killer righteously refused and insisted on going alone.

Li You did not answer, but listened to the sounds from Seoul outside.

Since last night, the sound of sirens has become the main theme of Seoul, sharp and rapid, with no trace of the calm of the past.

One of the windows in Li You's office was opened, and the not-so-thick clouds outside brought a cool breeze.

The blue flashing lights of police cars and other law enforcement vehicles on the streets kept flashing under the gloomy sky. They were also under pressure from their superiors and were anxiously searching for clues to the bombing.

From time to time, alarms sounded outside the window and were carried into the office by the wind.

"Just keep it. A Tanayon won't have any influence on what happens next."

Li Youmo wore earplugs last night and slept well in the apartment. When she woke up in the morning, she also understood some of the situation.

But surprisingly, she didn't feel any sympathy, she just felt a little annoyed when driving on the street.

Not to mention that pedestrians' steps became more hurried, even police cars and law enforcement vehicles were like chess pieces out of control, shuttling back and forth on the road like headless flies, raising clouds of dust but unable to find anything.

The appearance of these people did not bring comfort to the residents of Seoul, but instead added more tension and anxiety.

Whenever the alarm sounded, their eyes would unconsciously turn to the vehicles speeding by, secretly wondering what big thing had happened.

As a secretary, Li Youmo entered the office at eight o'clock in a very competent manner. After seeing Li You and Quan Zaijun inside, he greeted them with a smile.

"What time is it now?" Li You asked.

"Eight thousand one in the morning," Li Youmo was a little confused, but then she saw Li You turned his head and looked at her with a serious expression.

"Go and alert Kinmen Securities," Li You said in a deep voice, "and ask them to gather all important employees and go to the next meeting room."

Inside the Supreme Procuratorate, Chief Prosecutor Liu sat at his desk with a frown on his face.

The case materials in his hands are piled up like a mountain. Each document may seem to contain some clues about the case, but upon closer inspection, the two have nothing to do with each other.

The atmosphere in the room was tense and heavy. Chief Prosecutor Liu's face was as gloomy as the weather outside, so gloomy that water seemed to drip out.

He took a deep breath and tried to sort out his chaotic thoughts, but he felt at a loss as to where to start with this case, and even every nerve in his scalp was tense.

To put it simply, Chief Prosecutor Liu did not dare to interfere in this matter, but it was given to him by the Prosecutor General and he could not get rid of it.

The death of Zhu Rongyi, chairman of Daying Group, has made this case the most high-profile case in the entire Korean Peninsula.

Not to mention the pressure from the Daying Group on the Prosecutor's Office, even the attention paid to this matter by people from all walks of life on the Korean Peninsula made this old hand feel nervous.

The lights in the office seemed particularly dazzling in the dim environment. He circled September 10th and 11th on the calendar, symbolizing the case.

He sat at the table, with documents piled up in his hands, but his brows were still furrowed. He had no idea how to break the deadlock in the investigation or how to uncover a criminal organization as soon as possible.

Not only Seoul was shrouded in the shadow of last night, but the other side of the ocean was caught in an even bigger crisis in just over an hour.

In the sky above New York, two silver-white passenger planes looked like mad steel monsters.

Their figures drew arcs of terror in the sky above the city, and one after another, they rushed mercilessly towards the two towering buildings in front of them.

A moment later, the sharp sound of metal collision pierced the sky, and the world was torn apart.

Their original destination had long been replaced by panic and chaos. The sound of planes colliding with buildings seemed like the knell of doom, dull and desperate.

A huge fireball instantly expanded in the air, with thick smoke billowing, covering the sky and the sun.

Through the smoke and dust, you can vaguely see the charred marks left on the windows of the building.

As dust and smoke filled the air, they obscured the once clear skyline, while fragments of glass and metal fell like rain, carrying screams of despair.

The building was shaking under the impact and was about to collapse into ruins in the next second.

Screams, cries, and prayers resounded through the sky. Many people knelt on the ground not far away, with expressions of fear frozen on their faces. They were pulled away by the firefighters who arrived.

Debris and wreckage continued to fall from the sky, and the air was filled with the pungent and heavy smell of gasoline and burning plastic.

Flames were leaping wildly in the windows of the building, and black smoke was pouring out from the cracks, thick and eerie, mocking humanity's powerlessness.

The sirens of countless fire trucks sounded not far away, and red lights flashed in the smoke.

Even the lonely homeless man not far away was kneeling on the ground, making the sign of the cross on his chest, silently praying for a miracle to happen.

Between the tall buildings and the ruins, the footsteps of many people who did not enter the buildings and survived were heavy and disorderly. Under the gray sky, their eyes were red from the smoke.

After a few hours, the whole world knew what happened in New York, and the Korean Peninsula was no exception.

After Zhu Rongyi's death, Jin Jianying, Chen Dongji, Chen Rongji and Zhu Mengyong were the four peaks of Seoul or the Korean Peninsula, each of them possessed huge wealth.

These four people are currently the four people who possess the most wealth on the Korean Peninsula, and the fifth person is Li You.

After the Daeyoung Manor bombing, the attention of the people on the Korean Peninsula should have been focused on this case.

Jin Jianying and the Chen brothers were ready to direct their attacks at the camp group that had lost its backbone Zhu Rongyi.

But the attack in New York was a sudden storm that ruthlessly dragged all their plans, whether it was Zhu Mengyong's defense plan or the other three people's business offensive plans, into the vortex.

The three major groups all have a crucial subsidiary, which is their securities company.

For example, Shunyang Securities controlled by Chen Dongji, Tianxia Securities run by Jin Jianying for a long time, and Daying Securities controlled by Zhu Mengyong.

After experiencing the economic crisis on the Korean Peninsula, these subsidiaries all showed one characteristic: most of them bought a large number of foreign shares.

In Shunyang Securities, the gloomy sky shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows, making Chen Dongji's office gloomy.

The tense atmosphere was almost frozen, with the sound of keyboard tapping coming one after another and numbers jumping on the screen.

Chen Dongji's face was gloomy. Hurry footsteps sounded on the carpet. He could even feel his blood vessels beating.

As soon as he entered, he waved his hand to let his secretary close the door, took a deep breath, and scanned the elite team members inside with a sharp gaze.

His voice was low and rapid. "The impact of the terrorist attack? How much is expected to be lost?"

The secretary also frowned. He watched the team's operations and said, "Kosdaq is between 10 and 15, and KOSPI is around 17."

KOSDAQ is the Korean Peninsula's venture capital market, while KOSPI is the Korean Peninsula's main stock market index, representing the performance of the largest and most active stocks on the main board market.

Both of these old stock investors know that this is a sign of a big drop.

Chen Dongji took a deep breath and almost blacked out.

He is different from those others. Shunyang Securities is his most important industry. If he doesn't handle it well this time, he will bleed huge amounts of money and may even never recover.

Chen Dongji frowned, and was so anxious that he couldn't even sit down. He tapped his fingers on the table, his eyes revealing a hint of determination, knowing that he had to act quickly. "It is foreseeable that as soon as the market opens tomorrow, both companies and retail investors will panic and sell."

He hammered the table and said, "Let's get rid of all the projects whose prices are prone to fluctuations first."

"Take out all the remaining liquid funds first, and buy and sell options as soon as the market opens tomorrow."

A put option means that the buyer of the option has the right to request to sell the transaction at a specific price.

Chen Dongji clapped his hands to signal his trading team. His voice was unquestionable, "We must act quickly to minimize losses."

"Over there in the camp," the secretary lowered his head.

They were originally planning to take action against the Daying Group today, but this incident disrupted all their plans.

"Forget about it!" Chen Dongji gritted his teeth. "If we miss it, we miss it. They are already overwhelmed with troubles. Let's take care of ourselves first."

The secretary nodded and immediately picked up the phone, while Chen Dongji looked at the declining curves, calculating the consequences of every decision in his mind.

His expression was full of frustration. He missed the opportunity to take over some of the big camp's industries and didn't know if there would be another chance.

Chen Dongji shook his head vigorously to calm the turbulent waves in his heart. He believed that this was a prelude to the financial crisis and he must find a safe haven before the storm hit.

The air in the room seemed thicker, and everyone felt the pressure from Chen Dongji.

The lights are bright, the typing on keyboards is getting more rapid, each team is focused on their screens, everyone's fingertips are racing against time.

Chen Dongji stood by the window, looking at Seoul where sirens were still sounding outside.

Like him, Jin Jianying and other two made the same choice.

Jin Jianying and Chen Rongji had no choice but to take action against Daying Group at this time. They both needed to protect themselves in this crisis.

Chen Rongji's Shun Yang is his newly established securities department, in which he has placed a lot of hopes.

Zhu Mengyong was even more miserable. The camp was not stable to begin with, and his father Zhu Rongyi had just died. He had to face such a big crisis right after he came to power.

Including Chen Rongji, the four of them did not curse on the spot, which showed their good manners.

The atmosphere in the Kinmen Group's conference room was tense, but the tension came from the Kinmen Securities team.

The huge floor-to-ceiling windows brought in the gloom from the outside world, and the light from the ceiling shone on Li You, covering him with a thin layer of new clothes.

Li You sat in the large boss chair with his hands crossed on the table. His eyes were calm and composed, without a trace of fluctuation, just like the bottomless lake.

The whole world outside was beginning to experience a stock market storm, and investors' moods were going up and down like a roller coaster, but this was not much evident in Li You.

All the noise was blocked by the closed door. The corners of Li You's mouth even slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile.

This is why he chose to take action yesterday. He would not believe these untrustworthy businessmen and wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to get more things.

At the long table in the conference room, the employees sat up straight, their eyes flashing with tension and concentration, looking at Li You seriously.

"I will give Golden Gate Fund the right to use its funds," Li You said in a calm but powerful voice. "After the terrorist attack, a large number of companies and individuals will sell off many high-quality projects."

"I ask you to buy all the debt stocks at low prices."

Blue chip stocks refer to stocks of companies with excellent and relatively stable performance.

After long-term efforts, these companies have strong comprehensive competitiveness and core competitiveness.

"President, you mean all of them?"

"As long as we can buy them, we will buy them all," Li You smiled, "Of course, as long as it does not harm other company projects."

Li You's expression did not change at all. This is how the world is. There will be many securities companies whose flames will be completely extinguished in this turmoil.

No one knew that after the terrorist attack, there would be a wave of development in the financial industry.

"In addition." Li You calmly patted Li Youmo beside him, "Use Jinmen and my name to donate a sum of money to the victims in New York."
