Since we are both reborn, of course I would choose the rich woman!

Chapter 249 Hello, Ms. Lee Yong-jin
After arranging the hotel for Li Rongzhen, Rong Nianqing prepared to personally go to the airport to pick her up.

This surprised Lü Yao. Was this going too far?

He advised, "Isn't that unnecessary? I'll go pick them up, and you can just wait here."

Although Lee Yong-jin is a princess of Samsung, and Samsung is the largest conglomerate in Silla, making her an uncrowned queen in a sense, her net worth is indeed not low. However, having Rong Nianqing greet her is quite an honor.

But Rong Nianqing insisted, "They've come from afar and are guests, so we should still treat them well. Besides, they've come with the intention of cooperating. Moreover, Li Rongzhen is older than all of us, and she came in person. She also has more advanced technology than us, so it's only right for me to go and pick her up."

The most important point Rong Nianqing didn't mention.

Next, Lü Yao and Jian Xiaojie will go to Silla. Since they are on their own territory, they will definitely need to be taken care of.

If Li Rongzhen has a better experience here, it will also make it easier for Lü Yao to do things there later.

Although Lü Yao was going to Silla and planned to set up an entertainment company there to use as a front for the Samsung succession struggle, Rong Nianqing and Jian Xiaojie both understood that Lü Yao's real purpose in going there was to win over the "national treasure".

If Lü Yao can bring this national strategic asset back, then the business empire jointly built by Rong Nianqing and Lü Yao will be self-sufficient, forming an internal circulation route relying on software and hardware companies.

Since she couldn't go to Silla, she could only do what she needed to do while she was in the country.

Rong Nianqing said decisively, "Alright, let's not dwell on this anymore, let's go."

Rong Nianqing was happy to make such a deal, exchanging her empty reputation for some real benefits.

soon.

Rong Nianqing then brought Lü Yao and Jian Xiaojie to Shangnan Airport.

The airport terminal at Shangnan Airport is very well built. Although the building is a square structure, it features many floor-to-ceiling windows, which, combined with the gray and white walls and the greenery planted nearby, make it look very elegant.

It stands in stark contrast to the densely packed design of the civil aviation terminal.

Li Rongzhen's private jet was scheduled to arrive at 2:30. Lu Yao and the others arrived a little after 2:00, so Lu Yao and Rong Nianqing sat in the VIP room on the second floor and waited quietly.

The private jet terminal here has specially prepared many individual VIP suites. The VIP suite reserved by Lü Yao and his group faces the airport, where they can see the planes being lined up in an orderly manner according to the tower's arrangement.

Sitting in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window in the VIP lounge, watching the planes bustling around outside, is a unique experience.

At 2:30, a plane bearing the Samsung logo landed on the private runway with the roar of its engines.

Without a doubt, that's the car driven by Samsung's Lee Yong-jin.

Lü Yao, Jian Xiaojie, and Rong Nianqing all stood up and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window to observe the plane, waiting to see when it would come to a stop so they could get off and greet it. Jian Xiaojie's assistant, Fu Chengcheng, Lü Yao's secretary, Lin Yongzhen, and Rong Nianqing's assistant also stood up and followed not far behind them, ready to depart at any time.

While Lü Yao and his group were observing the Samsung aircraft, inside the plane bearing the Samsung logo, Li Rongzhen, with her elegant and noble demeanor and graceful, yet stylish, shoulder-length curly hair, was also observing the outside situation through a small telescope.

As the plane slowly taxied to a stop, Li Rongzhen used her binoculars to search and eventually found Lü Yao and his group standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor of the terminal, watching her plane.

Through the telescope, she saw a tall, handsome man with a capable and outstanding demeanor standing on the far left of the French windows. Based on the information she had gathered before coming, Li Rongzhen knew that this was Lu Yao, Rong Nianqing's favorite.

Standing in the middle, dressed impeccably and with a sophisticated and elegant demeanor, was Rong Nianqing, the woman who had invited her over.

Li Rongzhen was quite surprised to see Rong Nianqing here.

If it were Lee Jae-yong who came, he would barely be worthy of Rong Nianqing's welcome. But she was just a woman from the Samsung Group, with Samsung Electronics holding only 0.01% of the shares. For someone of her rank, a direct descendant of the Dongda Rong family, a representative of the young and middle-aged of the real economy, to personally come out to greet her...

This made Li Rongzhen feel flattered.

Before she arrived, all she thought was that Rong Nianqing would send some influential people to greet her, such as Lü Yao.

But judging from the current situation, Rong Nianqing values ​​this collaboration even more than she imagined.

However, Lee Yong-jin did not take this favor for granted or use it as a pretext for her actions. Unlike many fools in the Samsung Group, she was a woman who had been scheming for over a decade to seize the Samsung family fortune. She understood all too well what she could and could not do.

Although Samsung is very famous internationally and possesses very advanced technology.

It has already rivaled established semiconductor companies like Intel and GlobalFoundries. At the same time, relying on its monopoly over the entire Shilla business environment, all of Samsung's subsidiaries are performing well.

But Samsung is, after all, a company from a small place like Shilla. Even though it has become a top-tier company in a place like Shilla, it is still a small company, and its ceiling is ultimately limited.

But the University of Tokyo is different.

With its vast territory, the University of Tokyo has greater market potential, and its unique characteristics allow it to concentrate its resources on accomplishing even more ambitious goals.

If a conglomerate like Samsung weren't being manipulated by other forces behind the scenes, there's no way it could possibly stand up to a monster like Dongdaemun.

As this information flashed through her mind, Li Rongzhen began to rehearse in her mind what expression and tone she should use when interacting with Rong Nianqing and the others.

Li Rongzhen's observation was not over. After observing Rong Nianqing, she looked at the far right of the French windows, where a woman with a voluptuous figure and a charming temperament stood with her arms crossed.

Unlike Lü Yaorong and Nianqing, who were dressed in suits, this woman wore a dark red satin silk shirt and a long, fitted, flared skirt. The satin fabric reflected a soft silk sheen, making her snow-white skin appear even more radiant.

As Li Rongzhen peered through the binoculars at Jian Xiaojie, information about Jian Xiaojie also flashed through her mind.

“Jian Xiaojie…”

"Her identity is rather mysterious, but what is known is that she is very powerful, especially in the overseas Chinese community where she is very influential."

As for the three people standing not far behind the three in front, Li Rongzhen had not checked their information, so she was not very clear about who they were. The six people in that VIP room, just by their positions... they exuded the aura of a main character group. Each of them was very distinctive and each of them was very strong.

It's just like those ensemble pieces where everyone seems destined to be a protagonist.

"I'm so envious."

Lee Yong-jin put down her binoculars and sighed inwardly. She was different from the lower classes in Silla, who received almost fallacious and erroneous education from childhood and were unaware of the vastness of the world.

But she was different. She began to travel the world at a very young age, knew how vast the world was, and knew that many ambitious and talented people would emerge from this vast land of Dongda University.

For example, the scene unfolding before her eyes right now. Through this scene, Li Rongzhen seemed to see a vision of the future of this land.

Unfortunately, there is no longer a stage for her in such a future. Lee Boo-jin raised her hand and lightly brushed her face. This face, which cost billions of Korean won, still maintains a youthful and hydrated state, but age is a gap that humans still cannot cross.

Her limit is probably reaching the core decision-making level of the Samsung Group.

She didn't even dare to dream of completely controlling the Samsung Group.

This is also the mental imprint left by background and education.

In Silla, women had a lower status than men. This atmosphere was even stronger in the business and political circles. Otherwise, given her abilities, why would her father have arranged for her to become the president of the Silla Hotel?

As her thoughts raced, the private jet carrying Li Rongzhen slowly came to a stop.

Seeing this, Rong Nianqing, who was in the terminal, turned around and said, "Let's go down."

She took the lead and walked ahead, with Lü Yao and the others following behind her. When the plane's gangway came to a stop and the cabin door opened, Li Rongzhen, dressed in a professional suit, stepped out of the plane. When she saw that Rong Nianqing was already waiting with her people and supporters below the plane, Li Rongzhen quickened her pace accordingly.

He walked quickly across the red carpet to Rong Nianqing and extended his hand to greet her warmly.

She spoke Silla, which neither Lü Yao nor Rong Nianqing could understand, but Li Rongzhen's voice was unexpectedly gentle, even somewhat sweet, which, combined with her noble yet slightly heroic face, created an unexpected contrast.

Fortunately, the translator next to Lee Yong-jin immediately translated in unison: "Our president said he was very happy to see us. He was very surprised and grateful that Miss Yong came to greet us in person."

Rong Nianqing grasped Li Rongzhen's hand and said, "You're too kind. You are a distinguished guest, and it's only right that I come to welcome you. We have prepared a small feast, please come over with us, President Li."

With the help of simultaneous interpreters, the two groups communicated without any barriers.

Rong Nianqing invited Li Rongzhen to ride in the same car with her, while Lü Yao got into the car with Jian Xiaojie.

After the convoy started moving, Lü Yao asked Jian Xiaojie in the back seat, "Did you figure anything out?"

Because of language and cultural differences, Lü Yao's ability to judge people by their appearance was somewhat hindered. Jian Xiaojie, on the other hand, spent more time abroad and came into contact with more people from different countries and of different types. Therefore, Lü Yao wanted to ask for her opinion.

Jian Xiaojie, half-reclining in the back seat, laughed and said, "Don't worry, her surprise and delight weren't faked. It seems our Nianqing is quite adept at manipulating people now."

The concept of "face" is truly magical; giving enough face can sometimes bring about many very tangible benefits.

Upon arriving at the Mountain Lake Hotel, Rong Nianqing warmly invited Li Rongzhen and the others to take their seats. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the group began to toast and drink.

After a few rounds of drinks, the awkwardness of meeting for the first time quickly dissipated.

When the banquet was halfway through, Jian Xiaojie had moved to sit next to Li Rongzhen and started chatting with her.

Jian Xiaojie began to use her talent and skills to try to win over Li Rongzhen, but after several attempts, Jian Xiaojie discovered that although Li Rongzhen seemed very warm to her on the surface, she was always wary of her.

This made Jian Xiaojie feel a bit awkward.

Li Rongzhen was indeed very experienced and difficult to break through, so Jian Xiaojie suddenly changed her strategy and began to use Lü Yao as a breakthrough point.

Jian Xiaojie suddenly leaned close to Li Rongzhen and started talking about Lu Yao, who was sitting at the same table with her: "Our collaboration this time was recommended by Lu Yao. He said that your abilities at Samsung are very strong and that you are a very good partner."

"Really?" Lee Yong-jin asked in broken Chinese, feigning surprise.

Jian Xiaojie smiled and said, "Of course."

So Li Rongzhen raised her glass to Lü Yao, leaned forward slightly, and said in a very humble and respectful manner, "President Lü, thank you very much for making this cooperation possible. I would like to toast you."

Such a complex sentence structure is not Chinese, but Silla.

Listening to the translator translate beside him, Lü Yao felt extremely uncomfortable.

He raised his glass and smiled, "You're too kind. Cooperating with you is the best choice we've made. It's your ability that has determined the current situation."

Praising a strong woman like Li Rongzhen for her beauty, good temperament, and other qualities is useless, because a woman of Li Rongzhen's caliber understands that as long as you stand high enough, even if you look like a pile of dog shit, there will be people who won't even eat cilantro trying to get close to you.

Money and power are the best ways to enhance one's charm, whether for men or women.

Therefore, Lü Yao praised Li Rongzhen's abilities to the skies.

This praise came from a foreign land, and was recognized by successful people from Dongda University. For Lee Yong-jin, this praise and recognition were more precious than anything else. Especially after she began to compete for the right to inherit the Samsung Group, this generous praise and recognition stirred up her emotions, and she almost lost control of her emotions.

Since her father suffered a heart attack and was hospitalized last year, with little chance of regaining consciousness, her brother has been relentlessly pressuring her.

As the heir apparent of Samsung, he has unique advantages. Almost everyone within the Samsung Group is inclined to let Lee Jae-young take complete control, and even the external forces she has recently contacted are mostly not optimistic about her.

Otherwise, given her status as the eldest daughter of Samsung, why would she contact Yunnan Pharmaceutical?

Is it that capital in the Yangtze River Delta, the Pearl River Delta, or even the northern regions lacks better partners?
of course not.

Li Rongzhen also wanted to cooperate deeply with capital in Dahai City, Beijing, Guangzhou and Shenzhen... but these capitals didn't look favorably upon her. Although she had made many contingency plans over the years, she had also made arrangements for what to do next.

But this feeling of being disliked by everyone... is just awful.

Just when Li Rongzhen could hardly find any powerful allies, Rong Nianqing, who was also from a developed city in Dongda and had a strong background and strength, extended a cooperation invitation to her with the help of Lü Yao.

no doubt!

This is a timely help.

This timely help wasn't based on anything else, but on the high regard for her personal abilities... This made Li Rongzhen feel recognized and like she had met a kindred spirit.

So after Li Rongzhen finished her drink, she got up again, took the bottle, and personally refilled Lü Yao's glass, then said, "Please allow me to toast you again."

With that, Li Rongzhen downed the wine in her cup in one gulp.
