Korean TV series: King of Peninsula 1997

Chapter 463 Extreme Backstab
On the evening of September 29th, the opening ceremony of the Busan Asian Games was held at the main stadium in Busan.

It is also one of the most recently built sports stadiums and can accommodate 60,000 spectators.

The opening ceremony was a bit weird.

Li You watched the opening ceremony and then turned off the TV.

In this Asian Games, in addition to Future Electronics still holding activities, Kinmen Real Estate has also joined in.

However, real estate is the biggest part, so Li Youke did not launch a free house activity, but chose.
Cash collateral, you deserve it.

Future Electronics is still giving away future generation mobile phones, in multiples of the number of medals.

The intensity of the activity is much smaller than that of the World Cup.

However, the price of the next generation is heavily discounted.

With the residual heat of the World Cup, the sports events in the Asian Games are still very popular.

Even during the crucial period of the election campaign, Li Lianchang and Roh Moo-hyun showed up to show their friendliness and support for the candidates.

They paid special attention to visiting the participating delegations and their leaders from the north and expressed their friendship.

After returning, Li Lianchang and Li You met at the Kinmen Club.

Li Lianchang was very happy. The 67-year-old man's face was as happy as a chrysanthemum.

When Li You asked him the reason, he told Li You, "Zhu Mengzhun and Lu Wuxuan's alliance could not last from the beginning. They are destined to break up."

As the Grand National Party's candidate for mayor this time, Lee Myung-hak naturally has to support Lee Hoi-chang.

As a member of the same party, Zhu Mengzhun naturally also publicly supported Roh Moo-hyun.

It was only from Li Lianchang's words that Li You realized that Zhu Mengzhun seemed to have a conflict with Roh Wu-hyun.

Li Lianchang laughed out loud, "If Councillor Lu hadn't been there at the time, I would have laughed right there."

"He's going to run for election this year, and he might even run for mayor. Councilman Lu really betrayed his allies by saying that."

Li Lianchang was smiling and joking. It was obvious that Lu Wuxuan might have said something that would cause a conflict between him and Zhu Mengzhun. Li Lianchang was definitely not joking... and he didn't take it as a joke.

Li You didn't think that the conflict was caused by people other than them. After all, the level difference was too great. The two people running for president should have known what was going on and would not abandon their allies for the sake of their minions.

But Li You was not too sure. After all, it was Congressman Lu, and it was difficult to understand this person with conventional imagination.

The two chatted and laughed as they entered the room, and Li Youcai asked, "What did he say?"

"When we were greeting each other, Roh Moo-hyun said something very inappropriate about the North and South."

"Hasn't he always supported President Kim's Sunshine Policy?"

"I support it, too," Li Lianchang shrugged. "But the problem is that Councillor Lu may have been a lawyer for too long and loves to talk too much."

“Strictly speaking, the three of us have similar policy positions on the North and the South, such as the North and the South should actively engage and avoid any conflict.”

"But do you know what Lu said during the presidential campaign parade?" Li Lianchang shook his head. "He said that if there is a possible conflict between the North and the United States, we will have to intervene."

Li Lianchang shook his head. “They will definitely keep this a secret, but Zhu Mengzhun has gone from being his ally to a time bomb for him.”

After he said that, Li You also smiled a little. Originally, Zhu Mengzhun was a candidate for both mayor of Seoul and president, but he gave up his presidential candidacy and sent his supporters to the name of Congressman Lu.

Even so, Li Lianchang, with the help of the electronic political strategy used by Li Youxian, interacted passionately with many netizens on the Internet and was still far ahead of Congressman Lu.

This is the method that Li You used based on the golden retriever he had seen as the future president.

Everyone likes a candidate who has a good background and is down-to-earth.

In the last election, many voters believed that Li Lianchang was of too high a birthplace and was an aristocrat, but this view has almost disappeared in this down-to-earth interaction.

Councillor Lu also wanted to follow this approach, but after two rounds of promotion, too many future-generation mobile phones were sold.

There is even specially developed software to push Li Lianchang's various people-friendly speeches and policies.

Even the newly developed exclusive chat software by Future Electronics is subtly pulling users towards Li Lianchang.

But now.
It's like someone stabbed himself.

"The next step is to use this incident to divide the two of them," Li Lianchang said, although he was old, his eyes still shone with brilliance. "If they can follow our ideas, then the day of seeing the light will definitely not be too far away."

"Want to keep it secret?" Li Lianchang snorted coldly.

When the news broke out the next day, someone even contacted Li You specifically to get some information from him.

The person who contacted Li You was an important figure around Councillor Lu and also Lawyer Wen, whom Li You had known before.

His most important job at the moment is to be the head of the election strategy department for candidate Roh, who is in the Korean Peninsula presidential election.

This position is actually quite important, otherwise Councilman Lu would not have let his most trusted lawyer Wen take the position to specifically help him with election planning and fund raising.

Lawyer Wen's attempt failed. He was unable to get any plan from Li You. He just hung up the phone with a sigh. He probably went back to discuss countermeasures with Congressman Lu. The current election situation is already quite unfavorable for Lu and Wen.

"Looks like it's going to succeed?" Mou Xianmin, who was sitting opposite, looked over.

The two were eating at a restaurant they often visited. Li You smiled and replied, "This lawyer Wen is getting anxious, which means that the civil unrest has already begun there."

"Lawyer Wen" Mou Xianmin heard that Li You was quite optimistic about him, "What kind of person is he?" "He is a man of outstanding talent." Li You thought about it, "He is also very loyal and has great literary talent..."

When Li You said this, Mou Xianmin's face became strange. After all, these words did not sound like those used to describe a politician.

Everyone has many sides. Li You shook his head and said, "I didn't communicate with him much. I learned about Lawyer Wen from other sources."

In Congressman Roh's campaign office, Roh Moo-hyun's face looked as pale as the bottom of a pot.

They had just held a meeting in the office, and after it ended until now, Councillor Lu himself has been sitting quietly in his seat, not moving for a long time.

He couldn't think of a way to break the impasse.

He has always been a very emotional person, and sometimes he would suddenly say that he couldn't continue the presidential campaign.

This makes many members of the Millennial Democratic Party worried. Maybe after he becomes president, he will suddenly say, "I can't be president anymore."

Wen Zaiyin packed up his things for him. Seeing that he hadn't moved yet, Wen Zaiyin knew that his mentor and close friend was very distressed. He walked over and smiled to comfort Councillor Lu, "Don't let yourself get into trouble. We still have a chance."

Councillor Lu stood up and sighed deeply, "Do we really still have a chance?"

He was a little pessimistic. "I feel like I can't fulfill my dream. Realize the Korean Peninsula of my dreams?"

He shook his head. “I don’t see any hope.”

The constant failures have been undermining Councillor Lu’s self-esteem and confidence.

He failed in the parliamentary election in 1992, the mayoral election in Busan in 1995, and the parliamentary election in 2000. Although he had many supporters among the people, even the citizens who supported him spontaneously organized the first political figure support club in the Korean Peninsula, the 'Love Ro Club'.

But the support of the people cannot make him always successful in various elections.

Wen Zaiyin was silent for a long time and didn't say a word.

It was early morning on December 19th, Seoul time on the Korean Peninsula, and there were only a few hours left until voting for the presidential election.

Under the impetus of two "big villains" Li You and Li Lianchang, the alliance between Roh Moo-hyun and Joo Mong-jun broke down.

Zhu Mengzhun publicly announced that he would no longer work with Roh Moo-hyun, the presidential candidate of the Millennium Democratic Party, with whom he had once teamed up.

After losing the support of Joo Mong-joon, Roh Moo-hyun's originally strong support rate dropped again, and even his decent disadvantage no longer existed.

At Zhu Mengzhun's home, Zhu Mengyong was waiting for his younger brother to come back. "Mengzhun, if I ask you to give up joining forces with Councillor Lu, will it affect your mayoral campaign?"

"I don't care anymore," Zhu Mengzhun looked cheerful, "I don't have much hope of running for mayor anyway."

He didn't say the reason, but Zhu Mengyong knew it very well. There was no hope because it was too closely related to the Daying Group.

Logically speaking, although Zhu Mengzhun, a member of the Daying Group, would be suppressed by other forces when he ran for election, the Daying Group should at least give him good support.

But this time it was different. The camp was entangled with the rest of the world and could not provide him with any help.

Zhu Mengzhun could only watch as the little man named Li Mingxue continued to receive support from the citizens.

In particular, the current mayor Cui Changdi continues to cheer.

From behind, he saw Li You who did not hide himself at all.

"Ding Dong. Ding Dong"

The doorbell kept ringing.

Zhu Mengzhun looked at the secretary who knocked on the study door, "Who?"

The secretary lowered his head and said, "It's Councillor Lu."

Zhu Mengzhun shook his head with an indifferent expression. The breakdown in the relationship between him and Councillor Lu was certainly fuelled by Li Lianchang and Li You, but in fact there was a problem with the ideologies of both of them. He would no longer support Councillor Lu.

What's more, he has been advising on another matter.

The real reason why Zhu Mengzhun and Roh Moo-hyun finally broke up was not simply limited to those foreign policies.

Or perhaps Zhu Mengzhun gave up on him simply because of some statements regarding international relations.

What really disappointed Zhu Mengzhu was that Roh Moo-hyun announced in the Millennium Democratic Party that there was one proposal he would never give up after becoming president, which was to provide more supervision to large conglomerates, including the Daying Group to which Zhu Mengzhu's family belonged, as well as Tianxia, ​​Shunyang, and Kinmen.

Zhu Mengzhun has been trying to persuade him for such a long time, but it's no use.

During the persuasion, not only did Congressman Roh refuse to listen, but even when the two of them were in a heated argument, Roh Moo-hyun suddenly said to him, "You may not be able to become president in the future."

This really pissed off Zhu Mengzhun. Later, Li Lianchang called him and guaranteed that he would be a member of the National Assembly in the next three terms. So he dragged it on until now, deliberately waiting until this time to summon the media and publicly give up on Roh Moo-hyun.

You know, under the current election situation, Roh Moo-hyun and Lee Lian-chang held a conference in Myeong-dong, Seoul last night to seek support from young people.

Zhu Mengzhun was still present at the time, and doing this now is undoubtedly a stab in the back for Councillor Lu.

Logically speaking, this kind of backstabbing would affect Zhu Mengzhun's political career.

But it doesn’t matter that it was Councillor Lu who stabbed him first in various remarks.

Besides, Zhu Mengzhun still carries the arrogance of a chaebol family in his bones and looks down on Lu, a grassroots candidate.

Begging for mercy now?
late.
