I want to be a chaebol
Chapter 70 Meeting Chen Xinyu for the first time (5,000 words long chapter)
Korean funerals generally last three days, commonly known as three-day funerals.
On the first day, the deceased is put into new clothes, covered with a white quilt, and candles and incense are placed on both sides of the memorial tablet. "Ji Zhong" is posted at the entrance of the mourning hall, and a lantern with the words "Sincerely Hanging" is hung on the door, so that everyone knows that a funeral is being held here. It was on this day that the Modern Family published an obituary to inform Zhou Zhengsheng's former friends.
The next day, a professional embalmer will help the deceased clean his body, put on his shroud, and put uncooked rice soaked in water into his mouth, which symbolizes the bliss of the afterlife.
A screen is set up in front of the coffin, and a portrait decorated with black ribbons is placed on the screen, with candles and incense placed on both sides. On this day, the Modern Family will begin to receive guests from the outside world who come to mourn Zhou Zhengyong.
On the last day, after a simple sacrifice and farewell, Zhou Zhengyong will be taken to the crematorium near the hospital for cremation, and finally sent to the family cemetery for burial.
Therefore, most guests chose to pay their respects to Zhou Zhengyong on the second day of the funeral. On March 25, the largest number of reporters gathered outside Asan Hospital. All members of the modern family are ready and fully prepared.
Ashan Hospital also urgently deployed more than a dozen special care wards for modern family members to rest and receive guests. After all, they have to receive visiting guests all day today.
Zhou Shulan said to Song Yi: "I will return to China after my uncle's funeral is over. I am worried about your sister-in-law taking care of Miaomiao alone in China. Seeing that everything is fine with you in Korea, I feel relieved. Tai Xi is a good girl, cherish her and don’t let her down.”
Song Yi nodded, "When the things in Seoul are over, I will return to China in June. I will definitely not delay Miaomiao's enrollment. Then I will help Liao Yu complete the household registration matter."
Zhou Shulan is now used to Song Yi calling Liao Yu by her first name. The two work in the same company. It would be weird if Song Yi calls her sister-in-law Liao Yu in a Xinhan advertisement to her colleagues.
Among the five major chaebols, the Gu family of LG was the first to arrive. LG Chairman Gu Bensheng and Gu Guangmo came together to pay homage to Zhou Zhengyong.
Koo Benzheng is the third generation chairman of LG Group and the soul of LG Group’s internationalization. LG Electronics and Samsung Electronics are fighting fiercely both domestically and internationally. However, every change of chairmanship of LG Group is very harmonious, which can be called a breath of fresh air among Korean chaebols.
Koo Ben Sung's only son was in a car accident in 1994. LG Group also has a tradition of passing down the inheritance from male to female, so Koo Ben Sung began to focus on training his nephew Koo Guang Mok. Gu Benzheng took Gu Guangmo to attend Zhou Zhengyong's funeral, which was undoubtedly to show other chaebols that Gu Guangmo was the heir.
When Zhou Mengxian was managing Hyundai Electronics, he had frequent interactions with Gu Bensheng. Zhou Mengxian introduced his daughters Zhou Zhiyi and Song Yi to Gu Bensheng.
Song Yi knew that the predecessor of LG Group was LG Chem, and LG’s battery technology was very powerful. Song Yi intends to develop electric vehicles in South Korea, and batteries are an indispensable part of electric vehicles. His enthusiasm for Gu Benzheng is not surprising.
Gu Guangmo was a little puzzled and asked Ju Bensheng, "Uncle, why didn't President Meng Xian introduce his son to you, instead of pushing Song Yi to the front?"
Gu Benzheng thought for a while, "I heard that the three-point Hyundai plan was proposed by Zhou Mengxian, so as to prevent Hyundai Group from going bankrupt. Since Song Yi can serve as the executive director of Asan Group, this time he appeared at the funeral of the Hyundai family. On the committee list.”
"Maybe Zhou Mengxian realized that he didn't have time to raise his son, so he pushed Song Yi and Zhou Zhiyi to the front desk as his spokesperson. I heard that Zhou Mengxian donated a gymnasium to the north and named it after President Zhou Zhengyong. I guess Zhou Mengxian The troubles are not over yet." The experienced Goo Benzheng made his judgment.
Gu Guangmo was taught, "Then how should I deal with Song Yi?" Gu Guangmo is two years younger than Song Yi. The two have just exchanged contact information. He is also the second top chaebol that Song Yi knows in South Korea. The second generation, the first one is Chen Fuzhen.
Gu Benzheng thought for a while, "You have just joined the group and are not responsible for any important work. Asan Group currently has no cross-business with our LG, and there is no room for cooperation. Just treat it as ordinary friends and have normal interactions."
After the LG family arrived, SK Chairman Choi Anyuan and his wife Song Suying came to express condolences to Zhou Zhengyong's family. Song Suying is the eldest daughter of former president Song Shanggong. At the age of 40, she still looks charming.
Song Suying is also an academic beauty who graduated from the University of Chicago. Cui Anyuan was later imprisoned, and Song Suying was still responsible for managing SK Group.
It's a pity that Cui Anyuan later met the most powerful mistress Jin Xiying. Jin Xiying was a psychological counselor and got together with Cui Anyuan before she divorced her husband. Perhaps Kim Hee-young has long grasped the mentality of a man that a wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as a thief.
After Song Shanggong's accident, Cui Anyuan felt that the former president's father-in-law had no use value. Kim Hee-young decisively divorced her American husband. Choi Anyuan was deeply moved and asked Song So-young to divorce her and buy a luxury house in Hannam-dong for Kim Hee-young. Kim Hee-young is the "Mrs. Hannam-dong" in the Korean celebrity circle.
However, although the devil is as tall as the Tao, Song Suying refused to divorce and expressed her willingness to raise Jin Xiying's illegitimate daughter. When her three children grew up and became senior executives of SK Group, and it was a foregone conclusion that they would take over SK Group, Song Suying decisively kicked off her scumbag husband Choi Anyuan and took away a huge amount of 66.5 billion won in assets.
Among Korean chaebol families, Zheng Eunxuan and Song Suying are the two women Song Yi admires the most. After her husband's accident, the former shouldered the responsibilities of the family alone and maintained the Hyundai Group. The latter dared to love and hate, and after many years of forbearance, he successfully kicked off his scumbag husband. Moreover, Song Suying was definitely a temperamental beauty when she was young, and she matched Song Yi's aesthetic point of view.
Song Yi and Song Suying briefly chatted for a few words, and also talked about the relationship between the Pujiang Song family and Song Shanggong. The two presidents of South Korea, Song Sangong and Song Woo-seok, were both branches of the Pujiang Song family.
Song Suying thought that Song Yi wanted to take the opportunity to please her to get to know retired President Song Shanggong, so she shook hands with Song Yi and said, "In this way, President Song and I are still distant relatives."
Song Sangong was South Korea's first democratically elected president. During his tenure, he hosted the Seoul Olympics and established diplomatic relations with China. However, during his term of office, he received average reviews and was considered to have protected the military dictator with all-out war tactics. He also hid hundreds of billions of won in political donations during his term.
He was investigated by the government in 1995 and later pardoned. This has also become a feature of South Korean politics, where the former president is first convicted and then pardoned by the sitting president.
The root of the problem is that the South Korean president cannot be re-elected. In order to avoid being liquidated after stepping down, he granted amnesty to the former president so that the successor president can be tolerant of himself and continue the fine tradition.
Song Yi heard Song Suying say that they were distant relatives, and shook his head, "No, no, no, strictly speaking, Mrs. Cui should be my senior sister, and I also graduated from Yonsei University."
Song Suying studied at Yonsei University. After graduating from undergraduate studies, she went to the University of Chicago and Stanford to study abroad. She met Cui Anyuan while studying abroad at the University of Chicago.
Song Suying was surprised. She had graduated from Yonsei University many years ago, unless Song Yi had paid attention to her before.
Song Suying's attitude suddenly became cold, and she murmured in Cui Anyuan's direction, "I'm only in name in SK Group, and I can't say anything. If Manager Song wants to talk about business cooperation, I'm afraid you've made the wrong decision."
Song Yi smiled, "Senior, what you said is too harsh. It's great to have friends from far away. I really just came to entertain you with the mentality of welcoming friends."
Song Suying looked at Song Yi's handsome face, which overlapped with a figure deep in her mind, "This sentence was taught by a Chinese professor when I was studying at Yonsei University. His surname also happened to be Song."
When Song Yi heard this, he immediately became happy, "Is his name Song Mingzhe? In the early 1980s, he was a visiting scholar at Yonsei University and taught modern history. Song Mingzhe is my father."
When Song Suying heard this, she covered her mouth in surprise. She didn't expect that she and Song Yi actually had such a connection. She immediately changed her attitude, "Then you should call me Sister Suying."
When Song Myung-cheol was teaching at Yonsei University, he had a good reputation, with profound knowledge and elegant appearance. At that time, many girls wrote love letters to him. However, Song Mingzhe made it clear that he was married, had a good relationship with his wife, had two children, and lived a happy life.
Song Yi brought Song Suying to Zhou Shulan and told Song Suying that she was Song Mingzhe's student at Yonsei University. Zhou Shulan was also surprised. She was very enthusiastic about Song Suying and planned to treat Song Suying to dinner before leaving South Korea.
Song Suying persuaded Zhou Shulan, "Logically speaking, I should be the one who invited Mrs. Song and President Song to have dinner together. Only after seeing Mrs. Song did I know why Professor Song insisted on returning to China at that time."
Song Suying and Song Yi left each other's contact information and returned to their husband Cui Anyuan. Cui Anyuan was a little impatient, "Song Yi and his mother are just side branches of the modern family, why waste half a day on such people? If you have that time, you might as well have a good exchange with President Zhou Mengjiu and President Zhou Mengzhun's wife, otherwise Why did I bring you to the funeral?"
Song Suying originally wanted to tell Cui Anyuan about the relationship between her and Song Yi, but the joy on her face suddenly disappeared.
Since Song Shanggong lost power, Cui Anyuan's attitude towards her has become worse day by day. Cui Anyuan, who used to cook for her at the University of Chicago, is long gone. She also lost the mood to share with her husband and lowered her head, "Okay, I'll go right away."
South Korea's chaebols appeared one after another, and the presidents of major consortiums took turns to appear. I don't know if it was a coincidence. In the evening, the Samsung family finally appeared.
Samsung Electronics Chairman Chen Jianxi, his wife, son Chen Zaiyong, daughters Chen Fuzhen and Chen Xinyu all appeared at Zhou Zhengyong's funeral.
Samsung is currently the largest chaebol in South Korea, and there are many grievances between Samsung founder Chen Byung-cheol and Hyundai founder Zhou Zhengyong.
Chen Jae-yong and Chen Fuzhen often appear in front of the media. As the president of Shilla Hotel, Chen Fuzhen is a frequent guest in major newspapers and media.
Chen Xinyu is Chen Jianxi's most beloved daughter. This is her first public appearance this year. She is still a little uncomfortable facing so many cameras.
When Chen Jianxi walked into the mourning hall, the huge mourning hall felt a little quiet. Other guests in the mourning hall couldn't help but say hello to Chen Jianxi, and Chen Jianxi's strong aura was evident.
Both Chen Jae-yong and Chen Fuzhen were dressed in black, but Chen Xinyu was dressed in white, with a white suit skirt, white high heels, and white stockings.
Chen Fuzhen is already a rare beauty among the chaebols, but Chen Xinyu's beauty is even more outstanding, with a pure face and an extremely proud figure. It can be said that she has the face of an angel and the body of a devil. The third generation of the Zhou family couldn't help but look at Chen Xinyu frequently.
Chen Jianxi and his family walked to Zhou Mengjiu and said, "Please express my condolences." After saying this, he walked to Zhou Zhengyong's portrait and bowed nine times respectfully.
When Chen Fuzhen saw Song Yi, he couldn't help but mock, "President Song, long time no see. How did that glass of red wine taste last time?"
Song Yi felt a headache when he saw Chen Fuzhen. He never expected that Chen Fuzhen would hold such a grudge. At that time, Song Yi put Chen Fuzhen, Liao Yu, and Song Hye Kyo in the same group. As a result, he sent a message to a certain person. As soon as he paid attention, it became a group message.
New Asia Entertainment had just opened, and Chen Fuzhen came to retaliate and poured a glass of red wine on him. Who knew that Chen Fuzhen would not forget to ridicule Song Yi at Zhou Zhengyong's funeral today to embarrass him.
Chen Xinyu looked at Song Yi curiously. She had rarely seen her eldest sister Chen Fuzhen target a person like this. In Chen Xinyu's eyes, Chen Fu was really arrogant. Even if there was any misunderstanding, she didn't bother to explain. Moreover, Chen Fuzhen is very brave. In order to pursue true love, she married her bodyguard brother-in-law. He is the idol she admires in her heart.
Song Yi smiled lightly, "No matter when I drink the red wine that President Chen personally pours for me, the taste is unique and impresses me deeply."
When Chen Fuzhen heard this, he said, "You--" Song Yi said this. If others heard this, they might have misunderstood the relationship between the two.
Chen Xinyu heard the conversation between the two from the side, her mouth formed a cute O shape in surprise, "Sister, you and him?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Fuzhen realized that Chen Xinyu might have misunderstood the relationship between her and Song Yi, and became even more depressed, "Don't worry, even if all the men in the world are dead, I won't be able to fall in love with this bastard."
Song Yi nodded and shook hands with Chen Fuzhen, "Heroes share the same views and reach a consensus for us. Let's give me a high five together. Come on, give me five!"
Chen Fuzhen had a dark look on his face, "I'll slap you!"
Song Yi looked regretful and said to Chen Xinyu: "It seems that your sister is unwilling to high-five me. How about you take her place?"
Chen Xinyu stuck out her tongue. In front of Chen Jianxi, she did not dare to make such an unorthodox move.
Song Yi looked at Chen Xinyu. Samsung's most beloved little princess was indeed innocent and lively, and she did not accept the beatings from society.
She originally registered an account on a Korean social networking site to share her private life with other chaebol daughters, and soon gained more than 100,000 followers.
Chen Xinyu has never experienced pain in life. She thought that sharing was just a day for her ordinary people. However, this unintentional way of showing off her wealth caused her to attract criticism from the Korean people. Chen Jianxi also ordered her to close her account and sent her to study in the United States.
Later, she met her boyfriend Zhao Wenyu at an American racing track. The two fell in love secretly, but Chen Jianxi discovered it and ordered them to break up. It was embarrassing enough for his eldest daughter Chen Fuzhen to marry her bodyguard husband, but it would be okay if his most favored youngest daughter also married a poor boy.
Chen Xinyu escaped from the family's control, found her boyfriend, and asked them to get married secretly, so that her parents would have nothing to do. However, Zhao Wenyu still has some backbone after all. He said that he would not agree to a marriage without the blessing of his parents. In order to make Chen Xinyu give up, he met a new girlfriend.
Chen Xinyu was greatly shocked because she had been so smooth sailing since she was born and had not encountered any setbacks. Therefore, she fell into despair after being emotionally frustrated. In the end, she chose to hang herself in the bathtub of a luxury apartment in New York.
Of course, Song Yi couldn't bear to let Chen Xinyu repeat such a tragedy. He said to Chen Xinyu, "President Chen brought you out just because he hopes you can get to know other heirs of the consortium. In fact, Gu Guangmo of LG Group is very good." , you are young and handsome, do you want me to set up a connection for you? Anyway, Samsung and LG have already been married. This is called getting closer."
Koo Zixue, the second generation of LG Group, married Chen Shuji, the third daughter of Chen Bingzhe. Koo Zixue had been working at Samsung before. Later, LG Electronics and Samsung Electronics became competitors, and Koo Zixue returned to work at LG Group.
"I don't want it!" Chen Xinyu refused directly. She asked Song Yi curiously, "President Song should not be married yet. Don't you have to shoulder family responsibilities and marry other financial groups?"
Song Yi shook his head, "No, I already have a girlfriend, and all the family elders know about it. And even if they arrange a marriage for me, I have a way."
Chen Xinyu was very interested and prepared to learn from the experience, "What can I do?"
Song Yi said: "If they must arrange a marriage for me, and it's one that I can't refuse, then I will get married first, and the two of us will agree to be a couple in name only, and we will live our own lives. I will slowly save up." Strength, when I can get rid of the control of my family, I will choose to divorce and then marry the woman I love."
Chen Xinyu expressed doubts: "If this is the case, President Song's girlfriend should be very sad, right? What if she can't wait so long?"
"Can't you wait so long? Then I decided to pretend to be a playboy, fall in love with a female star, and then make my marriage partner unable to bear my cheating and take the initiative to divorce me." Song Yi joked.
When Chen Fuzhen heard that the chat content between Song Yi and Chen Xinyu was becoming more and more fantasy, he couldn't help but sneer, "President Song, do you still need to pretend? You are a playboy, okay? President Song went to Japan Disneyland for vacation with his girlfriend Jin Tae Hee on Valentine's Day. May I ask? Who are you going to send that happy Valentine’s Day message to?”
When Song Yi heard this, his voice suddenly cooled down, "Chen Fuzhen, you actually asked someone to investigate me? You are violating a taboo by doing this! Aren't you afraid of my revenge?"
There is a tacit understanding among the five major financial groups in South Korea, and they generally will not use commercial methods such as eavesdropping to deal with each other. Chen Fuzhen's doing this is undoubtedly a violation of boundaries.
Chen Fuzhen looked at Song Yi's eyes and felt a little regretful in his heart, but he refused to give in. "If you don't want others to know, you have to do it yourself. And at that time, you were not a member of a modern family!"
Song Yi chuckled and said to Chen Fuzhen: "Do you know what I hate most about you? What I hate most is your inexplicable sense of superiority. You always look aloof."
"What's so great about you? Apart from the fact that you have a rich father! Even if Samsung Electronics is so big, its shareholders are all foreigners."
"Although my company, Song Yi, is small, it does not accept any foreign capital investment. Hyundai Group is also the company with the lowest proportion of foreign capital among the five major consortiums. No matter how poor I am, I will not call myself an American dad!" Song Yi's sarcastic expression was full of laughter.
When Chen Fuzhen heard what Song Yi said, she really couldn't help it. She picked up the bag in her hand and was about to throw it at Song Yi. Song Yi's ridicule made her intolerable, but what couldn't be tolerated!
Chen Jianxi in the distance saw the movement here, and his voice was very stern, "Fuzhen! What are you going to do at Chairman Zhou's funeral?"
Chen Zaiyong stood behind Chen Jianxi, "Father, it seems that Fu Zhen and Song Yi have never been able to deal with each other. Fu Zhen has such a good temper and can get angry in public. It seems that Song Yi offended her severely."
Chen Jianxi squinted at Song Yi, remembering his appearance, "Song Yi, right? Help me check his information and see what conflicts caused them. If possible, find a way to let him If my company goes bankrupt, I will not allow anyone to provoke our Samsung family in South Korea."
Song Yi didn't know that Chen Jianxi had noticed him, and his behavior at the funeral also added a lot of resistance to his agency for the online game "Legend" in the second half of the year.
After he knew the ins and outs of the matter, he couldn't help but beat Chen Fuzhen in the back several times to relieve his hatred.
Chen Fuzhen and Chen Xinyu returned to their father. Chen Xinyu glanced at Song Yi secretly. For some reason, she always felt that Song Yi had different qualities, which were different from those of the kids she grew up with.
