Chapter 774 The layout of South Korea (7K chapter, please subscribe~)

  South Korea, on the way from Seoul, the capital, to the Westin Hotel in Myeongdong, Jung-gu, a row of black Mercedes-Benz cars were driving on the road.

  Chu Huan was sitting in the car in the middle, and at the same time riding with Chu Huan in this car was Quan Zaiguo, the son of Chun Doo-hwan, the most powerful figure in South Korea.

  South Korea outside the car window is rich and barren. You can see pedestrians wearing suits and hurried faces everywhere, and you can also see pedestrians in ragged clothes and dull eyes.

   Rows of tall buildings and dilapidated shanty houses.

   Quan Zaiguo must have been used to such an environment. In his eyes, this may be a normal Seoul.

"Mr. Chu, I'm very sorry. My father originally wanted to meet you as soon as possible, but you also know that the Blue House has just experienced the Gwangju incident and there are many things to deal with, so let's go to the hotel first. Tonight My father hosted a banquet at home to entertain you personally!"

  Jeon Jae-kook preached with a smile.

Chu Huan nodded slightly, Quan Zaiguo didn't see him at the first time, whether Chu Huan wanted to show him off, or he really had something to do as Quan Zaiguo said, Chu Huan must be Let Quan Zaiguo understand something.

   "It's okay, I just have other arrangements for a while, so I can stagger things!"

   Quan Zaiguo was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Does Dong Chu want to deal with South Korea's business?"

   In Quan Zaiguo's view, Chu Huan is a businessman after all, since he said that he has his own affairs to deal with when he comes to South Korea, it should be about business matters.

Chu Huan shook his head with a smile and said: "It's not a business matter, the main thing is that I have some other friends in South Korea. After the other party knew that I came to South Korea, they kept telling me that everyone should meet. Commander Chun Doo-hwan met.

   But now that Commander Chun Doo-hwan has other things to do, I'll go see my friends first! "

  Quan Zaiguo nodded indifferently, and then asked: "What kind of friend, why don't you go to meet him in person and let him come to the hotel to meet you?"

  Chu Huan said with a smile: "As for who is going to see whom, we still have to talk on the phone first before making a decision. If he is busy with things, it doesn't matter if I go to see him."

  Quan Zaiguo just nodded his head, and said indifferently, "So that's how it is!"

Chatting, the two have come to the Westin North Korea Hotel, a top hotel with a history of more than 60 years in South Korea. This hotel is one of the first hotels to introduce Western culture into South Korea. It first introduced such things as elevators, ice cream, etc. , Buffet and Western-style wedding these concepts.

  The buffet provided by the hotel's restaurant aria is one of the three major buffets in Seoul hotels in later generations, and it is also very popular among South Korean locals.

   There are city gates, pavilions, etc. in the hotel. Looking at these ancient buildings, it seems that you have really returned to North Korea 100 years ago.

   It’s also interesting to say that Chu Huan has his own real estate all over the world, but he didn’t buy it in Seoul. It’s not that Chu Huan doesn’t like the real estate in Seoul. In fact, during this period, the real estate in Seoul is still very promising.

  Taking the most famous Gangnam District in Seoul as an example, the Gangnam District at this time has only just begun to develop, and it has only been a mere ten years, and there is still a lot to do.

  The real reason why Chu Huan decided not to buy real estate in Seoul was because there was no need for it. As long as Chu Huan came to South Korea this time, he could successfully take over Dongming Timber.

  Then Dongming Lumber President Jiang Xizhen's mansion in Longshan District belongs to Chu Huan.

Although in later generations, Gangnam District is the most famous wealthy district in Seoul, there is even a song "Gangnam Style" by Uncle Psy to mock the life of the rich in Gangnam District. In addition, in "Please Answer 1988", Sung Deok-sun's father After retiring, I also want to move to Gangnam District.

  But in fact, for the traditional chaebols in South Korea, the real top circle is actually in the Itaewon district at the eastern foot of Nanshan Mountain in Yongsan District. For example, the ancestral home of the Lee family of Samsung is here.

  Dongmyung Timber in Kangseok Town is based in Busan, but he actually has his own villa in Yongsan.

  Pu Zhenxing had already booked a room for Chu Huan and others. After arriving in the room where Chu Huan was, Quan Zaiguo sat lazily on the sofa unceremoniously, and preached proudly.

"Mr. Chu, after I have dinner with my father tonight, I will take you to enjoy the night in Seoul. The life here is not worse than that of Xiangjiang. It’s almost a private club, we’ll go there to play then!”

  Chu Huan nodded with a smile, and then said: "I'll call my friend first!"

   Quan Zaiguo nodded indifferently, picked up a magazine on the table and flipped through it randomly.

  Chu Huan dialed the phone number of the other party, then introduced himself in English, and then said that he wanted to talk to Commander Simmons!

Quan Zaiguo, who was sitting on the sofa just now with an indifferent face, heard that Chu Huan was going to talk to Commander Simmons, his body stiffened instantly, and then he couldn't help but pricked up his ears. At this time, Quan Zaiguo was very grateful My father taught me English so that I can understand Chu Huan's communication with each other very well!

In South Korea, those who can be called commanders are basically members of the South Korean army, but now Chu Huan really said the name of a North American, and in South Korea, there is only one North American called commander. .

   North American Commander in Korea Simmons!

  Even the name is the same, you can’t go wrong!

  Then, Quan Zaiguo heard Chu Huan's affectionate greetings with the other party, then hung up the phone, and then Quan Zaiguo put away his dandy expression, and couldn't help asking Chu Huan.

   "Director Chu, you actually know Commander Simmons?"

  Chu Huan nodded indifferently and said: "When I went to North America, Kissinger introduced us to each other. Later, we found out that we have the same interests and hobbies, and we became good friends!"

  This answer is half-truth and half-false. It is true that Chu Huan and Simmons met because of Kissinger's introduction, but it is pure nonsense to say that they have similar interests. Everyone just has the same interests.

  Chu Huan invested in South Korea's Taiyang, and Simmons' son has some shares in it. Although it is not much, the annual income is much more than Simmons' salary!

  Since everyone is a community of interests, they are naturally good friends!

This is the first guarantee Chu Huan found for himself in South Korea. Politicians are not trustworthy, let alone South Korean politicians, so Chu Huan must have more bargaining chips in order to be able to better develop himself. business in South Korea.

   "It just so happens that Simmons's barracks has nothing to do today. He will come over in a while. Why don't you all sit down and chat?"

  Chu Huan extended an invitation to Quan Zaiguo, who was still in a daze.

  North American troops stationed in South Korea are so arrogant, even if they commit crimes in South Korea in later generations, the South Korean government dare not do anything to them.

   What's more, Quan Zaiguo has just suppressed the Gwangju incident that caused a sensation in South Korea, and is now planning to sit on the throne of South Korean president, let alone offend the North American troops stationed in South Korea.

  Although the dude Quan Zaiguo knew this, he would definitely participate in Chu Huan's invitation.

   "I didn't expect Mr. Chu to have such a wide relationship. It's really surprising!" Finally, Quan Zaiguo couldn't help exclaiming.

  Chu Huan smiled and said, "It's always good to have more friends!"

   After about half an hour, Simmons came to the hotel. After seeing Chu Huan, he immediately gave Chu Huan a warm hug.

   No way, just before Chu Huan came to South Korea, Simmons' son received a private estate worth millions of dollars in North America.

  It's no wonder Simmons is unhappy!

   "Chu, you should have told me the exact time you came to Seoul, and let me pick you up at the airport!" Simmons said enthusiastically after releasing Chu Huan.

  Chu Huan said with a smile: "Simmons, you are too polite. I know that life in your barracks is very busy. How dare you go to the airport to pick me up in your busy schedule!"

   "No, No, No!" Simmons shook his head repeatedly and said, "Just deal with the affairs of the barracks casually, but you must not be ambiguous when greeting my friends!"

  Chu Huan also laughed, and said, "Well, when I come next time, I will definitely call you in advance!"

   "That's right!" Simmons said happily: "Then we have agreed, if you don't call me when the time comes, I will be angry!"

Quan Zaiguo stood beside Chu Huan, watching Chu Huan and Simmons talking and laughing happily. He had some doubts about the relationship between Chu Huan and Simmons before, but now he has no doubts at all. He finally knew what Chu Huan's weight was like.

  The relationship between these two is too good, right?

  Chu Huan then introduced Quan Zaiguo to Simmons. Although Quan Zaiguo is Quan Douhuan's eldest son, he has never met Simmons, so Simmons naturally does not know him.

  However, after knowing the identity of Quan Zaiguo, Simmons nodded with a smile and said hello, but he must not be able to compare with Chu Huan!

   But this has already made Quan Zaiguo very happy.

  Then the three of them took a takeaway, Pu Zhenxing, to the restaurant of the Westin Hotel for dinner.

  During the meal, Simmons invited Chu Huan to visit their military camp in Longshan District, and Chu Huan did not refuse.

  After the meal, Simmons said that he still had some things to deal with in the barracks, so he bid farewell, and Chu Huan sent him to the hotel lobby.

  At this time, Quan Zaiguo, who was supposed to be with Chu Huan in the afternoon, also expressed that he had some matters to deal with, and bid farewell to Chu Huan.

   Chu Huan also did not hold back on this. After all, Chu Huan also wanted to ask Pu Zhenxing about their business in South Korea.

  Chu Huan's business in South Korea can be roughly divided into two directions.

   The first one is Jiaku’s business in South Korea on the bright side. Jiaku’s animation, clothing, cinema, games and other businesses have entered South Korea.

  The second one is Sun Investment represented by Li Zhenguo and Park Zhenxing.

  The reason why Li Zhenguo did not appear here is because Li Zhenguo hid deeper in South Korea. Chu Huan does not want too many people to know his relationship with Li Zhenguo at this stage.

  The business of Jiaku has a special person to report to Chu Huan, and Pu Zhenxing does not need to report, but the business of Sun Investment needs Pu Zhenxing to report.

"Sun Investment's largest business in South Korea is arcade games. Now, with the support of Hyundai Group and your relationship with the chairman, our arcade chain business is already the largest in South Korea. It can at least bring more money to the company every year. Nearly $1 billion in revenue!"

  Chu Huan is very fortunate that he has the arcade machine in his hands completely. In the era when computer games have not yet fully emerged, the arcade machine is definitely a huge money-absorbing weapon.

  Whether in Japan or South Korea, chain arcade game halls have become the most important alliance weapon in Chu Huan's hands.

  At the beginning, Chu Huan asked Pu Zhenxing to contact the two brothers Zheng Mengjiu and Zheng Menggeun of Hyundai Group. In fact, it was more based on the situation at that time, and wanted to bury a nail in Hyundai Group.

  But now I have temporarily resolved the grievances with Hyundai Group, so this nail can only continue to be buried. Let’s talk about Hyundai Group after Zhengzhou Yong’s death!

  Pu Zhenxing then handed over a list to Chu Huan, and said: "In addition, Chairman, this is some military and political relationship we have contacted in South Korea!"

Chu Huan took the list, smiled and said to Pu Zhenxing: "You did a good job. Before I came to Seoul, I had already contacted the North American side. Your sister's condition has basically stabilized. After a period of observation, it should be as soon as possible." You can be officially discharged from the hospital. As for the hatred on your body, you don’t have to worry about it. I came to South Korea this time to buy Dongming Timber and North Korea Ilbo. After Fang Yirong lost the North Korea Ilbo, he was basically just fish on a sticky board. , do whatever you want!"

  When Ma Jizu discovered Pu Zhenxing in North America, he took a fancy to Pu Zhenxing's hatred.

  Hearing what Chu Huan said, Pu Zhenxing's face immediately revealed an expression of excitement, and then knelt down in front of Chu Huan, begging earnestly.

   "Chairman, I want to ask you for one thing!"

  Chu Huan sat on the sofa and said, "Let's talk about it first!"

  Pu Zhenxing knelt there, with strong hatred bursting out of his eyes: "I hope that after the acquisition of "North Korea Ilbo", Fang Yirong will be handed over to me, and I will handle it!"

  Chu Huan smiled easily, and said: "Didn't I just say that after Sun Investment completed the acquisition of "North Korea Ilbo", Fang Yirong is a fish on the sticky board, and it is up to you to dispose of!"

  Hearing that Chu Huan confirmed his request again, Pu Zhenxing bowed down and said to Chu Huan: "Thank you, Chairman!"

  Chu Huan said with a smile: "As long as you can do things well for the company, the company will definitely not treat you badly!"

"yes!"

Then Chu Huan asked Pu Zhenxing about the specific matters of the sun investment, and then let Pu Zhenxing leave. After Pu Zhenxing left, Han Yang brought Li Zhenguo, who had already entered the Westin Hotel in advance, to Chu Huan s room.

  Li Zhenguo now has his own trading company in South Korea as an external identity, but in fact Li Zhenguo's status in South Korea is more mysterious and low-key than Gao Kai's status in Japan.

   "How is it? Are you still used to it in the past few years in South Korea?"

   Chatting with Li Zhenguo, Chu Huan became more casual.

   Li Zhenguo was also much more casual than Pu Zhenxing. He sat opposite Chu Huan and said with a smile: "It's okay, he's from here, how should I say it?"

After sorting out his own words, Li Zhenguo continued to speak: "People in this country, first of all, break the rules too much. When they usually speak, they have to speak honorifics. At the beginning, I was really not used to it, but now Much better, the last thing I can bear is what they eat.

Every time they eat, there are large and small dishes on the table. People who don’t know think how many meals they have prepared, but in fact, they are all pickles, but they still think how good their pickles are. Eat, if it weren't for the barbecue here, I feel like I can't stand it anymore! "

Hearing Li Zhenguo's complaints, Chu Huan couldn't help laughing, and said: "It would be nice to have barbecue, but you can't stand it, if you don't have you staring at Pu Zhenxing in South Korea, I'm still worried!"

It is naturally impossible for Chu Huan to give Pu Zhenxing absolute trust. The one who really makes Chu Huan trust is Li Zhenguo, so here Pu Zhenxing is developing the influence of Sun Investment in South Korea, and Li Zhenguo is also staring at Pu Zhenxing His behavior in South Korea made him unable to go beyond.

At the same time, Li Zhenguo also has other tasks. The president of South Korea is not a safe profession, especially after Chun Doo-hwan and Roh Tae-woo stepped down, Kim Young-sam and Kim Dae-jung, who took office next, spared no effort to rectify the two. people.

  Chu Huan's business is now so close to these two people. If there is no backer, there will definitely be problems when Kim Young-san and Kim Dae-jung come to power in the future.

  So Li Zhenguo is responsible for the future of Jiaku's business in South Korea.

"Kim Young-sam and Kim Dae-jung are the leaders of the Gwangju incident. It can be said that this is the darkest period of their political careers. Kim Young-sam is now under house arrest, and Kim Dae-jung is even more pitiful. Not only has he been arrested , even his eldest son, Jin Hongyi, was arrested and is currently being tortured in prison!"

In Li Zhenguo's heart, he was still a little curious about Chu Huanrang's special attention to the situation of these two people. Although the two of them were well-known in South Korea's political circles before, they even participated in the South Korean presidential election. But today's South Korea is ruled by Chun Doo-hwan, and Chun Doo-hwan is in charge of the army. No matter how you look at it, the political careers of these two people are over!

   At this time, Kim Young-sam and Kim Dae-jung were both members of the New Democratic Party of South Korea. In 1970, Kim Young-sam, Kim Dae-jung and Lee Chul-seung of the New Democratic Party competed for the position of the presidential candidate within the party. Which year Kim Dae-jung won!

   Then Kim Dae-jung announced his participation in the South Korean presidential election, but lost to Park Chung-hee in the end!

   Even in the process of running for the election, Park Zhengxi also caused Kim Dae-jung's car accident, causing Kim Dae-jung to become a lame man.

  After Park Chung-hee was elected president, Kim Dae-jung went into exile in Japan. During this period, he was kidnapped by South Korean agents, and his body almost sank into pieces!

  After Park Chung-hee was assassinated, Kim Dae-jung returned to South Korea, participated in the Gwangju incident, and was arrested by Chun Doo-hwan's men.

  In November this year, Kim Dae-jung will be sentenced to death by a South Korean military court for "conspiracy for civil strife".

  However, the North American side believed that the wave of protests triggered by the execution of Kim Dae-jung would benefit North Korea, and then negotiated with South Korea.

  Under the pressure of North America, Kim Dae-jung was finally sentenced to life imprisonment, 20 years imprisonment, and probation. He spent a total of 2 years and 7 months in prison.

  By December 1982, he was allowed to go to North America to heal a leg injury and set foot on the road for the second time.

   Kim Young-sam's situation is not much better than that of Kim Dae-jung. Although he is not in exile twice like Kim Dae-jung, his political career has also come close to collapse several times.

  But Kim Young-sam and Kim Dae-jung jointly led the Gwangju incident, but in fact the relationship between the two was not good. Later, Kim Dae-jung broke away from the New Democratic Party and founded another party by himself.

  Although Li Zhenguo had doubts in his heart, he didn't ask them out. He was used to carrying out Chu Huan's orders, but he didn't ask the specific reasons.

   "Chairman, I think it's unrealistic to want to get Kim Dae-jung out of prison, but we can use our relationship to get Kim Dae-jung's eldest son, Kim Hong-il out of prison!"

Chu Huan nodded after hearing this. Kim Dae-jung is really capable of tossing around. Even under the pressure of North America, he has been in prison for more than two years, and the identities of the two are too sensitive. In addition, Chun Dou-hwan Suspicious character, this is even more unsuitable to rescue Kim Dae-jung.

   If this person is replaced by Jin Hongyi, it will be much easier to operate.

.

   While Chu Huan was chatting with Pu Zhenxing and Li Zhenguo respectively, Quan Zaiguo hurried back to his home.

  At this time, Chun Doo-hwan has not officially become the president of South Korea, so naturally he has not lived in the Blue House.

   "Where's my father?"

  The servant at home replied: "The commander hasn't come back from Cheong Wa Dae yet!"

   Quan Zaiguo went directly to the phone and dialed the number of his father's office.

   "Aren't you accompanying Chu Huan? Why did you go back?" Quan Douhuan asked in a deep voice after answering the phone and knowing that it was Quan Zaiguo.

  At this time, it can be said that Chun Doo-hwan has cleared the last obstacle to becoming the president of South Korea. The change in identity has brought about some changes in Chun Doo-hwan's heart.

He really values ​​the cooperation with Chu Huan very much. After all, Chu Huan can bring him huge wealth, but at this time, he is about to take the position of South Korean president, which also makes Chun Doo-hwan think that he is in a relationship with Chu Huan. Huan cooperation can gain more voice.

  So, although he took the initiative to call and invite Chu Huan to South Korea, he did not meet Chu Huan immediately.

   "Father, I just came out of the Westin Hotel and this is what happened"

  Quan Zaiguo did not hesitate, and directly told Quan Zaiguo about the meeting between Chu Huan and Simmons.

"what?"

  Cheong Wa Dae's Quan Douhuan couldn't sit still when he heard that Chu Huan actually knew Simmons and had a very good relationship.

   "You wait for me at home, I'll be right back!"

   After finishing speaking, Chun Doo-hwan hung up the phone.

   Not long after, Quan Douhuan returned to his home by car, and saw Quan Zaiguo sitting in the living room.

   "Are you sure it was Simmons who had lunch with Chu Huan today?" Quan Douhuan confirmed to Quan Zaiguo directly after returning without any delay.

  Quan Zaiguo nodded, and said: "It can't be wrong, although I haven't seen Simmons, but I have seen his photo, he must be right!"

Quan Douhuan sat on the sofa, and said with a complicated expression: "I know that Chu Huan's relationship network is very complicated, but I didn't expect it to be so complicated that even Simmons knows him? It seems that the relationship between us and him We can't continue as we said before!"

Quan Zaiguo continued: "And when I had dinner with them at noon today, I heard their conversation. Chu Huan and North American Kissinger, as well as many political figures, the Kennedy family, the Bush family, etc. Also very good."

   Speaking of this, Quan Zaiguo asked Quan Douhuan helplessly: "Father, Chu Huan, a businessman from Xiangjiang, how could he be related to so many political families in North America?"

  Quan Douhuan had already thought of the reason at this time, and said in a deep voice: "How did Chu Huan cooperate with our family?"

  Quan Zaiguo directly said: "Money makes the way!"

Although Quan Douhuan was dissatisfied with his son for speaking so bluntly, the facts were indeed like this, so he continued: "The knowledge that Chu Huan can open the way with us with money, naturally he can also understand with those people with money. Now, you have to know that political donations in North America are even more serious!"

   Quan Zaiguo nodded and said: "Although that is the case, these families have strong partners. How could they accept Chu Huan's political donations for no reason, and Chu Huan is still a Xiangjiang native?"

Quan Douhuan shook his head and said: "I don't know about that, but it can also be seen from this point that Chu Huan's real strength is definitely not what we see now. I also sent people to investigate Chu Huan's status in the world. business, but our people can only investigate with a half-knowledge.

But it is undeniable that Chu Huan's business is all over the world. Just looking at his business in Xiangjiang, Fen can analyze it. Chu Huan's relationship in England is also very deep. Otherwise, he would not be able to acquire Jardine Land in Xiangjiang. , It’s just that I didn’t think too much about it before. "

   Quan Zaiguo is also a little confused at this time. According to what his father said, then Chu Huan's influence in the world at this time is definitely not what they once analyzed.

   "Then Daddy, do you want to go see Chu Huan now?"

Quan Douhuan shook his head and said: "No, since you have told him before, I have something to do at the Blue House, and I only have time in the evening. If he has just finished meeting Simmons now, we will take the initiative to meet him, but we will be left behind." inferior.

and"

Having said that, Chun Doo-hwan's expression began to become serious: "No matter what kind of influence Chu Huan has in the world, as long as he wants to do business in South Korea, he must get along with us, so we don't need to go too far." initiative!"

  Quan Zaiguo nodded after listening and said, "I see!"

  Quan Douhuan made arrangements: "Okay, you don't need to worry about other things. You just need to accompany Chu Huan during the time in South Korea. In addition, notify the family and prepare for the dinner tonight!"

"yes!"

   Also, the typo is changed first and then changed, Huangshan continues to code~Thanks to the list of typos provided by 'Codename 7 Nights', it has been revised, thank you~~
