The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

Early the next morning, Yang Dongxu was awakened by the phone call while he was still asleep. He gently pulled out the arm that was being pressed by Li Fuzhen, frowned and answered the phone call, and then his originally blurred brain instantly woke up.

Old Saddam was caught, Saddam was caught! The war in Iraq has come to an end. In fact, as early as mid-April this year, the United States had announced the end of the Iraq War.

That's right!

In the first half of this year, when the whole world was in panic because of SARS, the United States directly went to war against Iraq at the end of March, and then directly occupied the entire territory of Iraq by means of blitzkrieg in mid-April, and then Saddam was forced to flee and hide.

The whole world is in the haze of SARS, and the whole Middle East is in the haze of war. Now that Saddam has been captured, it seems that everything has been settled.

However, Yang Dongxu knew that this was just the beginning of another trouble, because the US policy of "overthrowing Sarawak and controlling Iraq" seemed to have ended satisfactorily when Saddam Hussein was arrested.

But in the follow-up, Iraq did not restore stability as the United States imagined, and then they could sit at home and count their money.

Instead, it slowly dragged the United States into a big quagmire, from the time Saddam was arrested to the next seven years. Iraq has never been peaceful, and every year the United States spends more and more on Iraqi troops. And soldiers continue to suffer casualties.

It took seven years until the new US President *** announced the withdrawal of troops from Iraq after he came to power. No one can tell whether the United States has made profits and started to lose money in the war against Iraq. But on the surface, the United States has indeed been struggling in the quagmire of Iraq for the past seven years. Anyway, it is not easy.

"What's wrong?" Although Yang Dongxu's movements were very light, Li Fuzhen still woke up.

"Saddam was captured." Yang Dongxu frowned, he didn't know what kind of mood he was in at the moment.

Although he knew about this matter a long time ago, he also knew the final result of LS. But after experiencing it again, especially when looking at this issue from a different angle, he always felt inexplicably blocked in his heart.

"Isn't that the Middle East?" Li Fuzhen's eyes widened suddenly.

Compared with ordinary people watching the excitement, as the eldest princess of Samsung. Although she has basically left Samsung now, she is very clear about what kind of attitude she has towards South Korea in the Middle East.

In other words, the Middle East is equally important to South Korea. After all, South Korea is too small and has almost no reserves of natural resources. Therefore, its development needs to continuously import a large amount of resources from foreign countries, among which oil is an important strategic resource that cannot be obtained and is indispensable for economic development.

In addition to Samsung's electronic products and hotels, Samsung Heavy Industries is the core industry, and the root of Samsung's foundation in South Korea as a chaebol.

"It's not that simple." Yang Dongxu shook his head.

"Is there any follow-up trouble?" Li Fuzhen frowned.

Although she has left Samsung, Samsung is her mother's family after all.

"It's just the regime of Laos that ended. Look at it, Iraq will never settle down as the Western media touts, and then establish a regime of shit, freedom and democracy. The trouble has just begun." Yang Dongxu said Put the phone on the bedside table and lie down again.

"You are not optimistic about the control of Iraq by the United States?" Li Fuzhen leaned on his chest.

"Iraq's military strength is not worth mentioning in front of the United States, so it is easy to win the war, after all, it is not in the same order of magnitude.

But the purpose of war is to put it bluntly for profit. Now that Lao Sa has fallen, how to divide the follow-up cake, and whether he can eat the cake safely is more complicated than simply destroying the war goal. "

Li Fuzhen was silent. As the eldest princess of Samsung, she has seen too many scenes of turning against each other because of interests. Of course, in Iraq, perhaps no one would dare to turn against the United States unless they want to go to war again.

But if you don't come here blatantly, you can secretly get more benefits, right?

When everyone has common interests and contributes together, they are naturally very positive. It can be divided into cakes. The ancient emperors killed not one or two heroes after ascending to the throne. This is not just the ancient Chinese history. The same is true of those in power all over the world.

"There won't be any major problems, right?" Li Fuzhen couldn't help asking while lying on Yang Dongxu's chest.

"Don't worry, there won't be another fight. After all, where is the US military power? Those who can fight him will definitely not fight lightly, because it is almost equivalent to a world war. Those who can't beat him will naturally dare not fight.

But it will definitely be troublesome in Iraq in the future, so don't think about Lao Sa's downfall. Then you can sit in a row and eat fruit. If there is any major oil transaction, go to other countries in the Middle East to cooperate. It is best to bypass the Iraqi side in the next few years. "

Yang Dongxu pulled the quilt to cover Li Fuzhen's exposed pink back. It's already December weather. Although the heating is turned on in the room, it's still a bit cold if it's exposed outside the quilt for too long.

Thinking about something on the bed, and staying with Li Fuzhen for a while, Yang Dongxu got up. It was already bright outside.

"How do you think South Korea's economy will be in the next few years?" Li Fuzhen also got up and began to get dressed.

"The world economy will develop greatly in the next few years, and South Korea's economy will naturally be no exception." Yang Dongxu said casually, and after he paused, he turned to look at Li Fuzhen: "Why, your new president has already made a move?"

In February of this year, South Korea's new president began to take office. This president is not simple, he is a very strong president. Internally, it began to clean up those pro-Japanese chaebols, and externally, even the unreasonable opinions raised by the United States dared to be tough.

Therefore, during the tenure of this president, the South Korean economy has developed greatly, but the life of the chaebol is extremely difficult. For example, it has not been a year since the new president took office, and South Korea has already begun to study how to impeach its own president. It can be seen how unwelcome the policies he implements are to these chaebols.

"The last time I went back, my father talked with me and said that homesickness increased the proportion of Samsung's foreign investment." Li Fuzhen said.

Yang Dongxu couldn't help but nodded in agreement: "Temporarily avoiding the edge is the best choice, after all, Samsung has actually obtained the maximum resources it can get in South Korea.

The share of the cake in the hands of the front will not increase. It is better to take a step back and develop the industry in hand. Sit on the sidelines and watch these people play games. "

Although the Li family is the number one chaebol in South Korea, some people even call South Korea Samsung's South Korea. But the South Korean president also has great power when he is in office.

Although the president of South Korea is a high-risk occupation, being in prison is considered a good result, and not one or two died after leaving office. But it will only be overturned after leaving office. If you are the president of South Korea during your tenure, if you are tough and tough, you will lose in the general situation first.

What's more, Samsung, which has become the uncrowned king of South Korea, has no reason to take the lead in the charge. Because the cake in your hand is already the biggest when you win, and it cannot be made bigger. If you lose, it will give those who are eyeing you a chance.

So it is the best choice to avoid it for the time being, after all, the president of the hard-charging chaebol. As long as it doesn't affect your own money, you can do whatever you want. If you want to do it in China, then I will go abroad to make money and ignore you for the time being. Anyway, you will step down sooner or later. Let's ride a donkey to read the books and wait and see.

"My father wants to increase investment in China, in the name of the Li family." Li Fuzhen said.

Yang Dongxu frowned.

Although the Li family is in charge of Samsung, it doesn't mean that Samsung belongs to the Li family. These are two concepts, because to be precise, most of Samsung's shares are not held in the hands of the Li family, but in the hands of some giants on Wall Street. Even Wall Street giants occupying Samsung's shares once reached an exaggerated level of more than 80%.

In other words, although Samsung Electronics is the pride of Korean industry, its headquarter is in South Korea, the executives are basically Korean, and the head and founder are all members of the Lee family, but legally speaking, Samsung Electronics is not a Korean company, but It is a foreign enterprise.

Therefore, investing in the name of the Li family and investing in the name of Samsung are two different concepts. The former's investment belongs to Li's family no matter whether it makes money or loses money, while the latter's investment in Li's family is only one of the shareholders who pay dividends, and it is not the one who distributes more.

In fact, as early as a long time ago, in order to get rid of the control of Samsung by Wall Street giants, or to enhance the influence of the Li family on Samsung. The Li family has made a lot of arrangements, and some of the industries have developed very well at the beginning.

Of course, everything must be grasped. It is impossible for your Li family to use Samsung's money to develop their own industry, so there are many games in it.

"You know the mainland's policy on foreign investment in the mainland, so if your father wants to invest, he should follow the normal procedures. If you ask me which industry I am optimistic about, I think the mobile phone industry is good." Yang Dongxu said after a while.

The main investment must be based on Samsung. This is a major premise that cannot be changed, otherwise the giants on Wall Street will definitely not want it. However, in the investment project, the Li family can choose a few key points to increase their investment.

Li Fuzhen emphasized that when investing in the name of the Li family, the answer she wanted to know was undoubtedly this.

"I will give advice to my father." Li Fuzhen nodded.

Although the mobile phone industry has been booming in recent years, the booming industry in Samsung's hands is not just the mobile phone industry.

However, compared with other industries, the mobile phone industry is indeed a new industry. At least compared to giants like Nokia and Motorola, Samsung, which only entered the industry in 2000, is still a rookie despite its reputation in the industry.

And those Wall Street giants may have many people holding shares in Motorola and Nokia. Therefore, it is obvious that Samsung, a newcomer, will not pay too much attention to it, so there is a lot of room for maneuverability.

"You can use the name of joint research and development of new mobile phones with Tunghsu Technology to increase investment funds, dilute part of Samsung's shareholding ratio, and then you secretly increase part of your holdings. However, the diluted part of Tunghsu Technology also has a proportion of increased holdings. "

"Understood." Li Fuzhen was helping Yang Dongxu get dressed, when she heard this sentence, she slapped Yang Dongxu angrily.

Although as a three-star eldest princess, business is business, and favors are favors, she made it very clear very early on.

But when the man I love shows a business-like attitude towards me, I will definitely feel a little depressed in my heart.
