Top of the Great Era

Chapter 2351 Emotions
The communication between Zhou Buqi and Li Zairong was very pleasant, just like the previous times.However, the two still did not reach a consensus on Yahoo Korea after all, and Lee Jae-yong said he would go back and think more about it.

From the point of view of attitude, Zhou Buqi thinks there is something interesting.

With so many chips added, the opponent has no reason to refuse.

Sure enough, at noon, Zhou Buqi declined the invitation to have lunch, and Li Zairong unquestionably dragged him to the underground garage.

Said to give him a present.

Went to the underground garage, there is a separate closed warehouse.

The door of the warehouse was locked, and there was a thick layer of dust. It looked like it hadn't been opened for a long time.

Zhou Buqi was accompanied by Sun Guanran, two bodyguards, and two drivers and attendants hired from South Korea.There are many people around Li Zaiyong. In addition to three assistants, there are seven or eight guys in black suits and white gloves. The security force is very strong.

Into the warehouse, it is really a garage.

There are many cars parked inside.

But they are all covered up, so I don't know what kind of car they are.

Li Zairong went over and pointed to one of them.

The assistant behind him went over and opened the curtain covering the car. It was an old but very high-end black business car. At first glance, it looked like a Rolls-Royce Phantom.

Look at the logo again... ho!

Samsung brand!
Zhou Buqi's eyes lit up and he said in surprise: "Is Samsung going to produce cars?"

Li Zairong shook his head, "This is from the past."

"before?"

Zhou Buqi had never heard of Samsung producing cars.Korean cars are generally Hyundai, Kia and the like.

Lee Jae-yong explained: "More than ten years ago, Samsung did build a car production line, invested nearly 10 billion US dollars, and planned to enter the car industry. But unfortunately, the Asian financial crisis broke out."

"Is that so..."

Zhou Buqi understood now.

The Asian financial crisis that year almost dealt a fatal blow to South Korea, and the entire country almost went bankrupt.Later, relying on a series of promises to developed countries in Europe and the United States, I borrowed a large sum of money, and sold all the high-quality assets in South Korea through selling and selling all the way, and it was considered a rebirth.

In the process, Samsung's shares were also lost.

Today, more than 60% of the entire group's shares are in the hands of foreign capital.The Samsung Group distributes more than one billion US dollars in dividends every year, and foreign capital happily enjoys the dividends of South Korea's economic development.Zhou Buqi paid so much attention to the Korean market, because he actually wanted to follow this path.

Li Zairong recalled the disastrous failure that year, and he was also very sad. "The threshold of the automobile industry is too high. This is a high-input and asset-heavy industry. Back then, Samsung had invested 10 billion US dollars to produce some light trucks and light buses. We want to enter the more competitive luxury car market. But after evaluation, this amount of money is not enough, and we need to invest at least another 100 billion US dollars. At that time, in the financial crisis, Samsung had already sold a large number of shares in order to save itself, and there was nothing to support it. If you want to start the Samsung Motors industry, you can only give up."

"This is a very rational choice." Zhou Buqi nodded, pointing to the limousine in front of him, "What's going on?"

Li Zairong said with a smile: "This is a concept car. It is planned to be a masterpiece of Samsung's luxury car when it is unveiled. There are two cars that have rolled off the assembly line. One is in my garage and the other is here. I want to give this car to you."

"What's so funny about that?"

Zhou Buqi realized the preciousness of this car.

This is not just the value of the car itself. No matter whether the cost of this car is 10 US dollars or 100 million US dollars, it cannot compare with the collection value and symbolic significance of this car.

"This car has been here for many years, so why not give it to you." Li Zaiyong was full of sincerity and joked, "Maybe you will remember this car when you see it in the garage in the future. Samsung, to deepen our business cooperation."

"Of course, definitely!"

Zhou Buqi was impolite, and planned to accept this gift.

Li Zairong smiled and said that he would find someone to check the car, and then it would be delivered to his home.

Zhou Buqi told him not to send it to China, but to Silicon Valley.This car has no legal qualifications, and it is an illegal car if it is sent to the country. If it is driven out, it will cause trouble, so let’s send it to a home in Silicon Valley.

Li Zairong hesitated for a moment, and suggested: "It's better not to drive this car."

"what?"

Zhou Buqi couldn't help but laugh.

Lee Jae-yong was a little embarrassed, "At the beginning, Samsung Motors could only produce some low-end vans, and the level of craftsmanship was not very high. Later, a new production line was introduced with a lot of money, and nearly 400 million US dollars were invested to build two concepts by hand. The car... After all, it is just a concept car, immature in all aspects, and has not even passed the road test. It is fine to put it on display, don't drive it out."

Concept cars are only responsible for beauty and brand promotion, not practicality, and may not even be able to run.

Zhou Buqi twitched the corner of his mouth, "Haven't you ever opened it?"

Li Zairong said: "I have driven it. The car at home was originally my special car, but later it always had problems and broke down, so it was no longer used."

When Zhou Buqi heard this, he burst out laughing, "It doesn't matter, the collection value is greater than the practical value!"

When you are away from home, it is normal to receive and give gifts when interacting with people, which is a basic social etiquette.

Most of the time, however, the gifts are more memorable but less expensive.

For example, an old book published decades ago, a photo frame made by oneself, an oil painting by an unknown artist, a bow tie and a watch, etc.

This Lee Jae-yong, the gift is really precious and commemorative.

Even Sun Wanran felt a little melancholy.

Leaving from Samsung Electronics, Sun Wanran said awkwardly, "You shouldn't have accepted this car, how can we return the gift?"

Zhou Buqi said nonchalantly: "How can it be so troublesome? Go back to China and buy a set of exquisite porcelain, or ask a calligrapher to write a picture and send it over."

Sun Guanran gave him a white look, "The price doesn't match either?"

Zhou Buqi said: "A work of art is priceless."

Sun Guanran smiled unknowingly, and hummed softly: "At that time, he will install a bug location system or something in the car to monitor you in real time."

Zhou Buqi laughed and said, "Don't think people are so stupid."

Sun Guanran was silent for a while, and then said in a low voice, "Well, this Li Zairong is really amazing."

"How did you get it?"

"Emotionally stable!"

"Ah?" Zhou Buqi was a little puzzled, "That's it?"

Sun Guanran said: "That's right, whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, the situation is so stable under any circumstances, and it's always on the same level. The more expert you are, the less emotional you are, um...it's about self-cultivation."

Zhou Buqi let out a "huh".

Sun Guanran then said contemptuously, "It feels like he's a hundred times stronger than you."

Zhou Buqi almost died of anger, "Can you talk?"

Sun Guanran said unconvinced: "Isn't it? He can control his emotions better than you. When you two were talking, I was watching secretly. He is like a stone Buddha... You discuss the Yahoo Korea deal, He just has that expression the whole time, you can't tell what he's thinking at all. You can't do it anymore, your emotions are all on your face."

"You did it on purpose, right?" Zhou Buqi was a little annoyed, feeling that no matter how bad he was at self-cultivation, he still wouldn't have all his emotions and sorrows hanging on his face, "Are you in a bad mood and using me to entertain you?"

Sun Guanran said with a smile, "Look, look, I'm angry again."

Zhou Buqi snorted, "You're an idiot, you only know one thing and don't know the other! Do you use geniuses and ordinary people as the same standard? Your big boss has to use the standard of geniuses!"

Sun Wanran curled her lips, "Double standards again."

"It's a double standard." Zhou Buqi said confidently, "The best among ordinary people, just like you said, have no emotions, make people unable to see the depth, and appear to be inscrutable. Geniuses are the same Haven't you met Steve Jobs and Bill Gates? They are not much better than Lee Jae-yong? They are more emotionally unstable than me. There are also Musk, Zuckerberg, and Oracle's Larry Ellison Sen, Google's Larry Page, look at these truly world-class big shots, who has a short temper? This is my standard, okay?"

"Oh."

Sun Wanran blinked a few times, as if this was really the case.

She has been in close contact with Zhou Buqi for these technology giants who have changed the world, and she really doesn't feel that kind of "superior".

Zhou Buqi said: "Li Zairong is just a common man. He is a rich second generation and successor who grew up under the strict family system management. This kind of person will be excellent, but he will definitely not reach the top level."

Sun Guanran glanced at him, "Aren't you also the second generation rich?"

Zhou Buqi said: "Am I the same as him? He grew up strictly according to the family arrangement and followed the rules. I am a rebel of the family. I am the same as my father. I don't listen to the family. I went to rebel against my grandfather. study in the capital."

Sun Guanran suddenly realized: "So among the children of the Li family, Li Zairong's rebellious sister is actually better and has a higher level of business."

Zhou Buqi waved his hand, "Whatever they do, they're not interested."

Sun Guanran tilted his head to look at him, "What about you? What do you think of your child? Do you want your child to listen to you in the future, or to be rebellious and not listen to you?"

Zhou Buqi didn't care at all, "Why do you think so much?!"

Sun Guanran said: "Last time, Wu Yu told me that she also wanted to have a baby. Yang Mi, Jiang Bingjie, and Li Xinwan also seemed to want to have a baby. With so many children, what should I do in the future? Don't give birth?"

Zhou Buqi said: "I've asked for it a long time ago, it's simple! Those who are obedient will keep their businesses, and those who don't will be given money to start their own businesses. I'm not worried. What are you worried about? Just be honest and give birth to your child!"
