Giant of the times

Li Jianxi was silent for a long time. Li Zetian's offer was really unacceptable to him.

Li Zetian glanced at him and said calmly: "President Li Jianxi, if you can persuade other shareholders to sell their shares to me, then, for the sake of your surname being Li, I can let your Li family retain part of the shares."

Of course, the reason why Li Jianxi left some shares is not because his surname is Li, but because Li Jianxi's ability is very outstanding. It was he who developed Samsung into the top company in Asia! In addition, Lee Kun-hee is also an influential Korean. If he is one of the shareholders of Samsung, it will naturally be beneficial to the development of Samsung.

Li Jianxi was immediately shocked when he heard this. He couldn't help but think quickly and felt that Li Zetian's suggestion was very good.

"As the saying goes, 'a dead Taoist friend will not die a poor Taoist', what does it have to do with me if others die, as long as I don't die. Moreover, Chronos Li can still retain some shares for me, so I don't think I have completely lost Samsung, etc." When Samsung recovers, the value of the shares I hold will inevitably increase greatly, just like Samsung being auctioned off by a bank. I just don’t know how many shares Chronos·Li will leave me??”

Li Jianxi pretended to be calm on the surface, but he was very excited inside. He calmly picked up the red wine and tasted it slowly, not wanting Li Zetian to see how urgent he was.

When Li Zetian saw that the other party was actually drinking red wine in a hurry, he felt disdainful. This guy can really pretend. I can leave you shares. You must be extremely happy, so why are you pretending? Okay, just keep pretending, I'll eat first, I happen to be hungry!

Li Zetian picked up the chopsticks and ate it with gusto as if no one else was watching!

Chairman Li Jianxi was depressed, and Li Zetian suddenly turned into a foodie, ignoring him and only seeing delicious food.

"Although Chronos Li is young, he is very scheming! The time for Samsung Group's auction is getting closer and closer, and the longer it is delayed, the worse it will be for me..." Li Jianxi frowned and looked at Li Zetian with a hidden thought in his eyes. A look of defeat.

"Mr. Li," Li Jianxi shouted.

"Ang~~ President Li Jianxi, what did you say?" Li Zetian raised his head and looked at him, with a big mouthful of rice balls stuffed in his mouth and chewing slowly.

"Mr. Li, I want to ask, how many shares can you leave me?" Li Jianxi asked, with a hint of respect in his tone, hoping that Li Zetian could leave him more shares.

Li Zetian smiled and said slowly: "I will reorganize Samsung Group and retain 1% of the shares for you!"

1%! ! !

When Li Jianxi heard this, his eyes lit up in vain, and his excitement was palpable! ! !

Samsung Group has many shareholders, but 98% of the shares are in the hands of outsiders, and Li Jianxi holds about 2% of the shares. Despite this, Li Jianxi is still the largest shareholder of Samsung Group. Now, if Li Zetian can leave him 1% of the shares, Li Jianxi will still be one of the major shareholders.

At this time, Li Jianxi couldn't bear it anymore and took the initiative to say: "Mr. Li, don't worry, I will help you persuade other shareholders to sell their shares to you!"

"Yes!" Li Zetian smiled and nodded, then raised his glass, "President Li Jianxi, I hope this matter can be completed as soon as possible. Come, let's have a drink!"

"Okay, cheers!"

After lunch, Li Jianxi left.

Li Zetian returned to the hotel room. He still had a lot of information to read.

During the Asian financial crisis, many large Korean companies went bankrupt. Daewoo Group, the second largest company after Hyundai Group, also went bankrupt.

South Korea's large companies have a common problem. Behind their rapid development, they are burdened with high amounts of debt.

This is true for Samsung, and so is Daewoo Group.

Daewoo Group was once one of the 20 largest companies in the world, with assets of US$65 billion. Unfortunately, affected by the Asian financial crisis, Daewoo Group, which was poorly managed and insolvent, had to take the step of bankruptcy and liquidation.

Daewoo Group's business scope includes foreign trade, shipbuilding, heavy equipment, automobiles, electronics, communications, construction, chemical industry, finance, etc. It has 29 series companies and more than 30 foreign branches. There are many companies worth acquiring. Li Zetian is working on the information Check it out, so you can arrange for someone to buy it later.

In addition, South Korea's largest company, Hyundai Group, is currently forced to sell off some of its assets in response to the Asian financial crisis.

"This is good, buy it!"

"This is not bad, I bought it too!"

"As for this... Hungry, forget it, it doesn't have any technical content, so I won't buy it."

"..."

Li Zetian seemed to be picking vegetables at the vegetable market. He was so free and easy that the new assistant standing beside him couldn't help but secretly smacked his lips!

Throughout the afternoon, Li Zetian contacted hundreds of companies.

Seoul has a nice night view and there are many places worth traveling to.

Li Zetian put on sunglasses and had some fun in Seoul.

After wandering for more than an hour, Li Zetian came to a stone bench at a rainbow fountain and sat down to rest. Not far in front, a pair of young lovers were quarreling and breaking up. Li Zetian squinted his eyes and watched with relish.

The woman said: "Are you seeing another woman outside?"

The man shook his head and said, "No!"

The woman said: "Then why did you break up with me?"

The man said: "We don't get along!"

The woman said with tears in her eyes: "You obviously think I'm ugly, so I'm going to have plastic surgery and become a beautiful woman. I'm going to make you regret it!"

At present, plastic surgery technology in South Korea is not developed enough, but it has begun to rise in South Korea.

The two young lovers ran away without fighting. It was really boring!

Li Zetian thought thoughtfully: "The plastic surgery market in South Korea is huge. People born in the 1990s basically do plastic surgery! I heard that the first gift Korean parents give to their children at their coming-of-age ceremony is a plastic surgery fee!! !”

"The four major evil arts in Asia are sex change in Thailand, plastic surgery in South Korea, makeup in Japan, and PS in China. I suddenly remembered that I watched a bit of the Korean variety show "Let Beauty" in my previous life. Holy shit, I was really shocked. Heavenly beings, ugly monsters actually let them undergo plastic surgery to become beauties, it’s so terrible, I still feel palpitations when I think about it, it’s like a nightmare!”

"In order to create beauty, let me contribute to the cause of plastic surgery in Korea!"

Li Zetian smiled, as if he saw countless Koreans waving banknotes and rushing into the plastic surgery hospital.

After returning to the hotel, Li Zetian decided to acquire a number of Korean plastic surgery hospitals and invest in research on plastic surgery techniques!

Of course, Li Zetian is a noble person, a pure person, a moral person, a person who has escaped from vulgar taste, and a person who is beneficial to the people. Plastic surgery technology can also serve those with skin burns.

At present, there are many people who have no money to see a doctor, and the hospital is suffering from serious losses, which is perfect for Li Zetian to buy it at a low price.

In the following month or so, Li Zetian's acquisitions were nothing short of crazy.

The media reports this kind of news every day.

"Chronos·Li intends to acquire Samsung Group"

"Retail giant Lotte Group seems unable to escape the clutches of Chronos Li"

"Daewoo Group has also become the prey of Chronos·Li"

"More than a dozen Hyundai Group subsidiaries are to be acquired by Chronos Li"

"Fourteen plastic surgery hospitals in South Korea have changed owners, and the new owner is Chronos Li"

"The well-known Korean entertainment company SM has been acquired. It will be more convenient for SM's artists to have plastic surgery in the future."

…

Korean netizens are horrified. Some people say that the entire South Korea seems to be acquired by Chronos·Li, and Chronos·Li will dominate the Korean economy!

Chronos·Li threatened to spread in South Korea for a while.

At this moment, South Korea is in need of huge international investment to save the country's economy. How could it refuse Li Zetian's investment?

Li Zetian swept through large and small companies in South Korea, but in the end he only spent 80 billion US dollars. What a bargain!

Now, even Samsung, Lotte Group, and Daewoo have become Li Zetian's industries. How awesome! However, these companies are all losing money and urgently need to turn around their profits and losses. In this regard, Li Zetian believes that with the recovery of South Korea's economy, the problem will soon be solved.

The trip to South Korea was coming to an end soon, and Li Jianxi invited Li Zetian to a banquet at his home.

Li Zetian thought about it and refused.

What's there to go to for a banquet? I'm making tens of millions every minute, and now I'm busy going to Japan!

Soon, Li Zetian took a private plane and headed to Tokyo, Japan.

Li Zetian's attitude towards Japan was not very friendly, but the Japanese government did not prevent Li Zetian from coming to Japan.

Li Zetian is a wealthy man who has a competitive and cooperative relationship with many Japanese companies. Moreover, Li Zetian owns many industries in Japan and has a decisive influence in Japan. Furthermore, the Japanese government has no legitimate reason to refuse Li Zetian from traveling to Japan. Some of Li Zetian's actions as an angry youth, such as investing in the filming of "Nanjing Massacre", made the Japanese government lose face, but did not touch Japan's bottom line.

When Li Zetian came to Tokyo, many Japanese officials even came to welcome him!

Li Zetian didn't stay in a hotel, but stayed in a luxurious villa under his own name. First, it’s safe, and second, it’s quiet.

When he came to Tokyo this time, Li Zetian secretly sent a large number of bodyguards. In addition, the Japanese underworld also has Li Zetian's troops, so there is no need to worry about safety. And the Japanese government dared to let Li Zetian have an accident in Tokyo, otherwise the impact would be great.

Speaking of the Japanese underworld, we have to mention one more thing. Many people believe that Japan may be the only country in the world that recognizes the legitimacy of gangs.

The yakuza are not only legal under Japanese law, they even receive a certain degree of explicit support in society. For example, some yakuza bosses are elected as officials.

David Cohen, the U.S. Treasury Undersecretary for Counterterrorism and Financial Intelligence, pointed out that the Yamaguchi-gumi, led by Kenichi Shinoda and Kiyoshi Takayama, has annual revenues of billions of dollars and is engaged in a wide range of criminal activities in Japan and other countries, including Drug trafficking, arms smuggling, human trafficking, prostitution and money laundering, etc.

Li Zetian's gang force in Japan is mainly engaged in arms trading. It is Japan's largest arms giant, called "Dark Night", and belongs to the umbrella international security company. Even the Yamaguchi-gumi dare not provoke it easily.

Umbrella International Security Company is a company similar to Blackwater Company in its previous life. However, with the support of Li Zetian, Umbrella International Security Company is stronger than Blackwater Company in terms of weapons, equipment and personnel, training bases, human resources, etc. many.

Now, Li Zetian has so much wealth, wouldn't it be a joke if he has no ability to protect himself?

Frankly speaking, with the combat effectiveness of Umbrella International Security Company, more than half of the countries in the world are not its opponents.

Saudi Arabia spends US$80 billion on military spending every year, and its military strength is ranked fourth in the world.

If Li Zetian is determined to build up the armed forces, I am afraid that except for a few military powers, the rest will not be the opponent of Umbrella International Security Company.

Japan was affected by the Asian financial crisis. Countless companies went bankrupt and a large number of people lost their jobs. Li Zetian picked up the sickle again and began to harvest the spoils crazily. Real estate, banks, factories, technology patents, retail stores, etc., as long as they have development potential, we will acquire them all.

The acquisition hurricane that blew up in South Korea has now come to Japan.

South Korea, Japan, and even the whole world were shocked.

"Acquisitions are coming again!!! But where did Chronos·Li get so much money to acquire these companies?! It is said that people in Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Singapore, Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia and other places seem to be making crazy acquisitions , its style is very similar to that of Korea and Japan. From what I can tell, the person behind the scenes is probably Chronos·Li!!"

"Wori, let's put it this way, Chronos Li is really incredible!"

"The reason why Chronos Li is able to make massive acquisitions is probably related to his selling shares! I heard from a friend of mine who is engaged in finance on Wall Street in the United States that Chronos Li has recently sold many shares of Internet companies."

"Holy crap, that's it! The market value of those Internet companies is so scary. If Chronos Li only sells a small amount of shares, he will have tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars, which is naturally enough for him to acquire companies in these Southeast Asian countries! Listen! They say that these companies are all at bargain prices now, and if I had money, I would buy them too!"

"Haha, even if you have money, do you dare to acquire it? The economic situation in Southeast Asia is very bad, and we don't know when it will recover! Although these companies are very cheap, the risks borne by the acquirer are huge. Look, the world Chronos Li is not the only rich person in the world, but how many of them dare to imitate his unscrupulous acquisition of Southeast Asian companies?"

"..."

Li Zetian came to Japan just to show some interest and announce that I am here and I conquer, so he did not stay long. In addition, Li Zetian found that the current Internet bubble had a vague feeling of bursting, especially after he sold some shares of Internet companies, this feeling became more obvious.

Therefore, he is ready to go back and take charge of the overall situation.

Li Zetian is the undisputed overlord of the global Internet. If the American people see him return to the United States, they will definitely have more confidence in the Internet. If they have more confidence in the Internet, the Internet bubble will not burst so quickly, and Li Zetian will have enough time to continue to cash out.

So, in mid-August, Li Zetian took a private plane and returned to the United States.
