Korean TV series: King of Peninsula 1997

Chapter 611 Approaching the 'Protagonists'

On the morning of the next day, Kinmen Real Estate purchased a large amount of real estate from Wu Yongzhu at a price slightly higher than the market price.

Although Wu Yongzhu wanted to insist on selling at a low price, Li You denied it.

"The money will go to the National Bank," Li You said calmly, "and it will not be put into the Peninsula Bank."

"Thank you, President Nim."

As Wu Yongzhu was expressing his gratitude, the TV in the president's office started to sound. Seeing Li You looking over there, he also turned to look.

The TV was broadcasting a noon news program. The female host smiled and said, "Mr. Park, I heard that DF Financial Holdings is acquiring Peninsula Bank?"

"Yes," said Park Dae-ho, the representative of DH Financial Holdings, in a suit and tie, word for word, "With the successful integration of Peninsula Bank by our company, it will lay the foundation for us to become the nation's leading financial institution."

“We at DH Financial Holdings will always stand with the people and will stand up for their interests.”

Li You looked at Wu Yongzhu and said, "It seems that he didn't know that the duck worth 200 billion won flew away."

"President Nim transferred these properties to multiple people in order to cheat him?"

Li You smiled and just indicated to watch the show. The two of them watched the show quietly. Li You then looked at his watch and said, "I have a lecture to attend in the afternoon, so I won't keep Mr. Wu for dinner."

After watching Wu Yongzhu leave, Li You glanced at the TV which had already started playing commercials. By now, Zhao Taixie should have received the news and it was time for him to go and see what was going on.

"You bastard, what did you say?" As soon as Park Dae-ho returned home after recording the show, he heard news that made him shocked and angry.

"What do you mean he suddenly sold all the houses? What nonsense are you talking about? How can you not even control an old man?"

Park Dae-ho's roar echoed throughout the office.

"terribly sorry."

"Sorry?" Park Dae-ho raised his hand and slapped him. "Did I tell you to keep a close eye on him?"

"Because his movements were very safe, we did not try to stop him."

Seeing his men trying to find excuses, Park Dae-ho raised his hand and slapped them again, "You want to find an excuse for losing 200 billion?"

"Peninsula Bank was about to complete the acquisition, and the strategy was already drawn up, but you let the target get away?"

Park Dae-ho was furious. The people from Peninsula Bank informed them, which meant that Councillor Zhao also knew about it. This was what frightened Park Dae-ho the most.

The phone vibrated and made a buzzing sound on the coffee table.

Park Dae-ho glanced at the caller, and the three words "Director Han" made his eyes go dark. He gritted his teeth and answered the call, "Director Han."

"President Park, please come over here."

Without having time to listen to his subordinates' explanation, Park Dae-ho hurried to Zhao Tae-seop's residence and knelt down in front of Zhao Tae-seop.

Park Dae-ho was helped up from the bottom by Cho Tae-seop himself, so he knew that he could be beaten down by Cho Tae-seop himself. He pressed his forehead against the ground and said, "Member Nim, I have committed a capital crime."

"I didn't expect that old fox Wu Yongshu would run away so quickly," Park Dae-ho was about to look up, but Zhao Taixie threw the documents at him, and he lowered his head again.

When Zhao Taixie saw Park Dae-ho kneeling down, his expression was cold.

What Park Dae-ho just said made Zhao Tae-seop even more disappointed. This smart subordinate whom he had helped to rise to prominence had made such a big mistake.

Zhao Taixie narrowed his eyes behind his black-framed glasses and smiled softly, "It's okay."

"It's inevitable to make mistakes in life. Take this incident as a warning and don't make the same mistake again next time," he stood up and walked to Park Dae-ho.

"It won't happen again, I'm so sorry."

"Okay, stop apologizing and stand up," Zhao Taixie helped him up, "It's just that one person's property was transferred to someone else's name."

"It makes no difference, does it?"

Park Dae-ho hesitated for a second and said, "Yes, I will never make a mistake next time."

"Okay," Zhao Taixie's brows relaxed, "You can go now."

Park Dae-ho lowered his head and left. He only stayed for a few minutes, but he became more and more afraid of Zhao Tae-seop.

"Do you want to forgive Representative Park?" Assistant officer Kim Jin-woo at the side was puzzled.

“Before taking action, those who achieve great things cannot only consider one aspect, because they don’t know what variables will occur. They must have a macro and long-term vision. If they can make one trillion by betting 100 billion, it is also a result that can only make money and not lose money?” Zhao Taixie sat back and crossed his hands.

"Yes, I don't have a long-term vision."

Zhao Taixie chuckled, "Director Han? We need to confirm the situation of the Ministry of Land and Resources."

Han Zhixian, the head of the secretarial office on the other side, agreed, "Yes."

"A good staff officer will take action before any doubts arise, just like Director Han," Zhao Tae-seop's words made Jin Zhenyu unconsciously look at the woman trained by Zhao Tae-seop.

"It used to be said that if politicians understood money, the country would be doomed," Cho Tae-seop counted on his fingers, "President Park, President Jeon"

"There is also someone closer, the mayor of Seoul, Lee Myung-hak."

"In this era, if you don't understand money, you can't become a leader. Look at the United States, which prints U.S. dollars to make money. The domestic crisis has been enough to cause turmoil in the world economy in the past two years," he said with emotion. "Nowadays, if you don't understand economics, you can't hold power. This is an era where money is power."

"Oh Yong-soo" Cho Tae-seop looked at Oh Yong-soo's file again and was a little confused, "Is he really just lucky?"

"He is too old. Apart from knowing that he has been buying and selling real estate in the three Jiangnan districts, no other useful information can be found."

"Check him out carefully," Zhao Taixie closed the file, stood up and walked to the locker room, "I'm going to Seoul National University. The lecture time is almost up."

"Yes, Councillor Nim."

As Cho Tae-seop was on his way to Seoul National University, there was a lot of discussion among students at Seoul National University.

In the past few years, Zhao Taixie went there very frequently. However, in the past two years, because some graduated students have started to work in the procuratorate and the court, and secret organizations in the school have become popular, he went there less frequently, usually once or twice a year.

This is Cho Tae-seop's first speech at Seoul National University this year. The school has been covered with posters by the Law School Student Union, which have a half-length photo of Cho Tae-seop and the slogan "Young people, set goals and realize your dreams."

Jin Xiyu stopped with his familiar classmates and said, "Young people, set goals and realize your dreams," with a slightly sarcastic tone.

"Today is the day," Kim Kyu-ri, the second runner-up, raised her eyebrows, "Should we go and listen?"

"?" Jin Xiyu was a little confused. Before he could answer, Jin Guili asked the senior Li Minxiu on the other side, "Senior, should we go and take a look? Councillor Zhao Taixie is our senior in college."

One was Kim Hee-woo, who was thrown from a tall building by Cho Tae-seop's men in his previous life and became a trapeze artist. The other was Lee Min-soo, whose father, a congressman, was forced to death by Cho Tae-seop many years ago. For a moment, except for Kim Hee-woo who fell silent, even Lee Min-soo, who had always been very lively in front of them, was stunned for two seconds.

Li Minxiu, who was one year older than them, had seen this kind of speech twice before. He rolled his eyes and said, "I won't go, even if you pay me to go."

"Me too," a girl passing by echoed.

"Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Jin Xiya," Li Minxiu livened up the atmosphere and also revealed the identity of the visitor.

"I hate Cho Tae-seop, too," Kim Hee-ya is Kim Gun-young's smartest child. Although she is a girl, she is a girl who can be admitted to Seoul National University without the help of the power of the World Group.

"Is that so?" Li Minxiu said with invisible hatred in his eyes.

After being silent for a while, Jin Xiyu spoke up. He remembered that he had been playing coy with Cui Kangzhen from the Law School Student Union yesterday. "Let's go and take a look."

He said with a hint of sarcasm, "He can also give us advice, how great."

Seeing Jin Xiyu and Jin Guili leave, Li Minxiu and Jin Xiya were a little confused. It was not until they could no longer be seen that Li Minxiu shook his head and asked, "Do you want to go for a drink?"

"How do you know I don't have to work today?" Jin Xiya has never revealed her identity.

Li Minxiu smiled, looking a little mysterious.

"Oh." Jin Xiya smiled, "What an irresistible proposal."

While two of them were going to drink, the other two had already arrived at the huge tiered classroom, but the front row seats had been occupied long ago, so they could only choose seats at the back.

“There are so many people”

"After all, he is the only congressman in our country who has never been scolded," Kim Gyu-ri, along with others, applauded Cho Tae-seop who was coming on stage.

But Jin Xiyu, who met Zhao Taixie for the first time in his life, fixed his eyes on the woman standing on the right side of the podium, with a look of surprise and uncertainty.

"The messenger from the underworld?" Jin Xiyu frowned, "Who is she? Who is she to Zhao Taixie?"

"Hello, excuse me."

Jin Xiyu didn't even bother to look at the person who came. He put his legs together and turned sideways to let the person in.

"Hello everyone, I'm Zhao Taixie," Zhao Taixie smiled.

The first question was from the Law School. "You have extensive experience and influence in last year's general election and this year's party leader election. As you said before, the voting rate of young people in their twenties exceeded 45%. I would like to hear your views on communicating with young people."

"Shut your mouth and open your wallet," Cho Tae-seop replied with a smile, "Stop using your status as an elder to give them long lectures. Let them earn the money that young people should earn, instead of the elders controlling the wealth."

“Sometimes I listen to SJ and Lee Hyori’s songs,” Jo Tae-sub joked, referring to the boy band and girl singer who are currently the hottest idol singers. “I also secretly read contemporary novels just to understand your interests.”

"Of course," Cho Tae-seop continued after the laughter stopped, "Even if we don't listen to that music, we should understand other generations and respect their culture, instead of letting the ruling generation control their wallets and force communication with them.

Rather, it is the barrier-free communication generated by the self-confidence of the younger generation, but the biggest obstacle may be the vested interests and the selfishness of the beneficiaries.

Regarding this point, I really admire the many things that Kinmen Electronics is promoting in the future mobile phones and the Internet. They are changing this era. If Chairman Li can publish an autobiography so that everyone can learn from it, it would be great. "

Zhao Taixie is a good speaker and he kept getting applause during his speech, but Jin Xiyu kept staring at the "messenger of the underworld" and even felt a little uneasy.

"."

"How did he speak?"

"Not bad." Kim Hee-woo was about to respond to Kim Gyu-ri when he realized that it was not Kim Gyu-ri who was talking. He turned his head and looked at the masked man wearing a baseball cap sitting next to him.

Li You did not take off his mask. This time he hid his identity and came to listen to the lecture. There was indeed an unusual atmosphere.

However, to those who really knew the situation, Zhao Taixie's words just now were clearly a mockery of Li You.

Who doesn't know that Lee You started out as a gangster? Didn't he write a book to teach these top students from Seoul University to become gangsters?
Seeing that Jin Xiyu was a little surprised by his conversation, Li You simply asked again, "What did Councillor Zhao say?"

Fearing that Li You in front of him was an undercover agent sent by the Law School Student Union, Jin Xiyu smiled and said, "Well said."

The voice of Zhao Taixie on the stage was heard again. He knew that he could not compete with the chaebols for those students from wealthy families. From his very first speech, he had set his sights on those talented students from poor backgrounds.

For example, Kim Hee-woo and Kim Gyu-ri in the eyes of outsiders.

“There must be opportunities to realize dreams easily, and opportunities must be given to everyone fairly and equitably, so that poor families can cultivate talents.”

What shocked Jin Xiyu was that Li You in front of him was very familiar with Zhao Taixie's style, which made him more convinced that this student must be a fanatical supporter of Zhao Taixie, and might have been sent by the student union to test him.

On the stage, Jo Tae-seop looked around and said, "Please everyone, protect our present and our future."

"I'm Cho Tae-seop, and I'm willing to help you!"

The students in the audience began to applaud wildly, and Kim Gyu-ri was not surprised. When Cho Tae-seop went to the small library next door to prepare for the next autograph and photo session, Kim Gyu-ri turned her head and saw Kim Hee-woo chatting with a strange masked man, and they seemed to be chatting very enthusiastically.

"Yes, I also like what Councillor Zhao said." Jin Xiyu smiled warmly. After being pulled by Jin Guili, he said goodbye to Li You with an apologetic look on his face.

As they left the classroom, Kim Gyu-ri was curious, "Who is that?"

"I don't know, he should be a fanatical supporter of Councillor Zhao," Jin Xiyu breathed a sigh of relief, "You want to ask for signatures?"

Seeing Kim Gyu-ri jogging to line up, Kim Hee-woo slowly approached the 'messenger of the underworld' standing outside the library.

He leaned against the wall and stared for a while, until the 'messenger of hell' felt a chill on his back and turned around to look over.

"Thank you," Jin Xiyu walked closer and bowed slightly, "I will definitely keep my promise."

The 'Messenger of Hell' gave him a second life in order to drag Cho Tae-seop, who had lived an extremely successful life in his previous life, down to hell.

Han Ji-hyun, the "Ghost Messenger", thought that it was a fan of Cho Tae-seop expressing his gratitude and determination to follow Cho Tae-seop, so she nodded politely and said, "Okay, I'll leave it to you then."
