The richest man

Chapter 238 The Korean chaebols greeted the bosses one after another

South Korea's economy is in recession.Along the way, Zhang Jun found that many stores had closed.

The Asian financial crisis had a great impact on South Korea.

The arrival of Zhang Jun and his party immediately attracted the attention of the Korean government and the Korean media.

Some even claimed that Jang Jun could save South Korea's economy.

The news spread that day, causing the Korean stock market to soar miraculously.

"The richest man in the world, Zhang Jun, has come to Korea?" Lee Kun-hee, head of Samsung, changed his expression. South Korea has just released the restrictions on foreign investors, and Zhang Jun came. His purpose is to acquire the shares of large Korean companies.

And right now, Samsung is also in a quagmire, unable to save itself, and those people on Wall Street are using various means to acquire Samsung.If Zhang Jun got involved, Samsung would not be completely controlled by the Americans.

Li Jianxi immediately said to the secretary: "Prepare the car immediately, I am going to visit Mr. Zhang Jun Zhang!!!"

"Okay, boss!" The secretary nodded and hurriedly made preparations.

Ten minutes later, Li Jianxi took his son Li Zairong and his eldest daughter Li Fuzhen by car to the hotel where Zhang Jun stayed.

At this time, Zhang Jun received the news that Li Jianxi was going to visit him.

"Hehe, you have come to visit me so soon, it seems that Samsung's situation is not optimistic..." Zhang Jun smiled, Li Jianxi's visit was exactly what he wanted.The South Korean government stipulates that foreign capital can only hold 50% of the shares, and if the 50% of the shares are completely occupied by Americans, it would be bad if Li Jianxi was not worried.

Therefore, the Li Jianxi family obviously wants to introduce him as a third party, and may even help him acquire shares in Samsung to fight against Wall Street in the United States.

An hour later, Li Jianxi and others came to the hotel.

Zhang Jun greeted him at the entrance of the hotel, and the two exchanged pleasantries.

Later, Li Jianxi also introduced his son and daughter to Zhang Jun.

"This is the dog and the daughter, Lee Jae-yong and Lee Fu-jin!"

"Hehe, hello!" Zhang Jun heard the words, looked at the two people Li Jianxi was pointing at, and greeted with a smile.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang!" The two bowed to greet each other with a respectful attitude. At the same time, with a trace of curiosity in their eyes, they secretly looked at Zhang Jun, wanting to see what this legendary figure looked like in reality.

Although the Samsung family is also very legendary, compared with Zhang Jun, it is like a firefly competing with a bright moon.

Li Fuzhen's eyes showed even more admiration and admiration.

In Li Fuzhen's eyes, Zhang Jun has several identities, such as superstar and great writer...

Li Fuzhen is a female fan of Zhang Jun.

At this time, Zhang Jun didn't realize that he took an extra look at Li Fuzhen. The three-star eldest princess has a refined temperament, good looks and figure, so why did she fall in love with the poor security guard?

At this moment, Li Fuzhen noticed that Zhang Jun was looking at her, and his cheeks became slightly hot. He didn't know why Zhang Jun looked at her so strangely.

After a while, everyone came to a large private room, ready to chat while eating.

Zhang Jun said straight to the point: "Those people on Wall Street are bloodthirsty and greedy hungry wolves. If Samsung is controlled by these people, I am afraid that it will not be easy in the future. If Mr. Li is willing to support me in acquiring Samsung's shares, not only can I Support your work, but also help Samsung products to the world."

Even without its own support, Samsung's products can go to the world.

And there are a few more Samsung products in the supermarket, for me, there is no loss at all.

Li Jianxi smiled and nodded, agreeing with Zhang Jun's words very much.

Wall Street is notorious, "eat meat without spit out bones", Li Jianxi knows it very well, so he decided to lure Zhang Jun in so as to fight against Wall Street.

"Since Mr. Zhang said so, I will fully support your acquisition of Samsung's shares!" Li Jianxi replied.

"Haha, thank you Mr. Li. I believe that under the leadership of Mr. Li, Samsung will definitely be able to develop and grow!" Zhang Jun raised his glass and said, "Come on, I wish us a happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

Everyone had a drink.

Then at the dinner table, Zhang Jun asked about the situation of Samsung, and learned that the current situation of Samsung is not optimistic, and urgently needs funds to solve the predicament.

"Samsung's situation is actually not too serious. If Mr. Li chooses to issue additional shares to me, I am willing to invest 50 billion US dollars in Samsung Group!!!" Zhang Jun said tentatively.

Instead of slowly buying from the stock market or other small shareholders, it is better to directly obtain a large amount of shares through private placement.

Hearing this, Li Jianxi frowned slightly. If there is a private placement, his family's shares will also be greatly diluted. He originally only wanted Zhang Jun to buy Samsung's shares from others.

So, Li Jianxi thought about it, and finally refused.

"Sorry, Mr. Zhang, a small amount of private placement is fine. However, the $50 billion private placement will affect our family's control over Samsung, so please forgive me." Li Jianxi shook his head.

Zhang Jun didn't have much hope at first, so he smiled and said, "It's okay, then please ask Mr. Li to help me acquire Samsung's shares through other means."

"That's no problem. Many Samsung shareholders want to cash out, and I can introduce them to you." Li Jianxi said.

After eating a meal for more than an hour, after Zhang Jun sent Li Jianxi and others away, a meaningful smile appeared on his face.

"Boss, if Li Jianxi does not agree to issue private placement shares to us, it will be more troublesome for us to acquire Samsung shares. Not only will it take a long time, but we will also have to compete with Wall Street, and the cost will increase a lot." Beside Zhang Jun, Kirin Finance CEO Zhao Wen reminded.

"Li Jianxi said that there is no need to issue private placement shares. In fact, he is afraid that we have too many shares. But Samsung lacks funds, so it will eventually choose financing." Zhang Jun said lightly, "As long as financing, I will still have a chance to get more shares."

After a pause, Zhang Jun said to Zhao Wen, "Arrange our people to enter the stock market from now on and buy shares in Samsung and other chaebol companies!!!"

"Yes!"

……

……

South Korean stock market.

Suddenly, a stockholder shouted: "Samsung Electronics, Hyundai Motor, SK, LG and other companies have increased their purchase bills in vain, and their prices have increased by hundreds of yuan!!!"

Soon, everyone noticed the change.

Immediately, the stockholders cheered and couldn't wait to sell the shares in their hands, for fear that the other party had bought enough.

The Wall Street financial investment companies were all astonished. Seeing this, they hurriedly raised their purchase prices.However, the price of their buy order increased, and the other party also increased accordingly, preventing Wall Street financial companies from grabbing too many shares.

"Who is robbing us of the shares of the Korean chaebol company?!!" A Wall Street investor was very angry.

"Recently, Zhang Jun came to Korea, maybe he did it!" Immediately, someone guessed.

Originally, there was a tacit understanding between Wall Street financial companies, and everyone was slowly absorbing the shares of Korean chaebol companies in the stock market by pressing down on the price.But I didn't expect Zhang Jun, a spoiler, to join in, causing the shares of the Korean chaebol company to soar.

"Damn it, he will only benefit Korean stockholders and chaebol companies!!!" A Wall Street financial manager cursed.

"Contact Zhang Jun immediately, we must drive down the price of the Korean stock market!"

"Ok!"

People from Wall Street Financial Company quickly contacted Zhang Jun.

Zhang Jun smiled slightly, and said to the man: "It's okay to join forces to suppress the Korean stock market, but I want to share the Korean cake with you, or I will act alone. I don't care what the final result is."

The man discussed with the people around him, and finally gritted his teeth and agreed to Zhang Jun's request.

"Okay, on behalf of Wall Street, I agree to your request!"

Hearing this, Zhang Jun had a smile on his face. In fact, he didn't want the stock price to soar, and he wasn't really a savior, and he wasn't interested in saving the market for South Korea.It is in Zhang Jun's best interest to buy bottom at a low price.

Therefore, after Zhang Jun reached a cooperation with those people on Wall Street, he backhandedly cooperated with Wall Street to suppress the Korean stock market.

Early this morning, countless stockholders were still discussing yesterday's surge in the stock market.

"Yesterday, companies headed by chaebol companies such as Samsung Electro-Mechanics and Hyundai Motor have seen their stock prices rise sharply, which led to the rise of the broader stock market. This shows that our Korean economy is about to recover, so I speculate that the trend of the stock market today will still rise sharply!" An old stockholder said swearingly.

"My brother is a bull, the inference is reasonable, the stock market will go up today!"

With excitement and freshness, everyone waited for the Korean stock market to open.

However, everyone never expected that the stock market had just opened, and companies headed by chaebol companies plummeted one after another, and a large number of sell orders made people's scalp tingle.

An atmosphere of panic pervades countless Korean stock investors.

Shareholders were worried that the stock price would continue to plummet, and they rushed to threaten to sell their shares first, which caused the Korean stock market to plummet even more.

"This, how is this possible?!" The old stockholders looked at the stock market like an avalanche, wanting to cry but not crying.

A series of chain reactions caused by the sharp drop in the stock market led to a sharp depreciation of the Korean won.

The Korean chaebol company is in a hurry.

Knowing that Zhang Jun happened to be in South Korea, he hurriedly visited in person and begged Zhang Jun for help.

In newspapers or TV media, many Korean celebrities can be seen entering and leaving the hotel where Zhang Jun is staying every day.

The South Korean government has dispatched a large number of police officers to maintain security and order in this area.

For a while, Zhang Jun's schedule was tight.I met and talked with many people from chaebol companies every day, and reached many contracts in private.

In less than a month, Zhang Jun has become a major shareholder of several chaebol companies in South Korea, one of the company's directors, and has a great say.

Newspapers can often see how many shares Zhang Jun has acquired in a certain company.

"Zhang Jun has become the major shareholder of Samsung Electronics, and his shares have even surpassed that of Li Jianxi's family!"

"Zhang Jun invested huge sums of money in Hyundai Group and saved Korean cars! Zhang Jun is a good friend of our Koreans! Maybe Zhang Jun's ancestors are Koreans!"

"Recently, Zhang Jun attended the LG board meeting and became a director of LG!"

"Posco has accepted the investment from Legend Steel, and the two parties have reached a closer cooperation. Posco is expected to get rid of the financial difficulties in Asia and achieve breakthrough development!"

"GS Caltex has received investment from China Energy Corporation, and will work together in the field of petrochemicals to create brilliance!"

"..."

Zhang Jun's series of investment acquisitions has greatly boosted the Korean stock market.

Moreover, Zhang Jun's investment style seems to the outside world to be vigorous and bold. The key is to be generous. Many people are very willing to sell their shares to Zhang Jun.

Therefore, although Wall Street financial companies were the first to enter South Korea, Zhang Jun relied on his strong capital and made decisive moves to catch up from behind. The shares held by major chaebol companies have surpassed Wall Street.

At this moment, the Asian financial crisis is still ongoing.

No one can predict how the chaebol companies in South Korea will develop in the future.

Only Zhang Jun knows that due to the monopoly advantage of these companies in South Korea, they have developed smoothly and are very powerful, and even rank among the top in the world in their own fields.

All in all, this investment will not lose money.

……

Samsung is the focus of Zhang Jun's attack on South Korea.

Therefore, Zhang Jun acquired the most shares in Samsung, mainly Samsung Electronics.In the previous life, Samsung Electronics was the biggest profit place of the Samsung consortium, accounting for 90% of the entire Samsung group.

Zhang Jun currently holds 16.5% of Samsung Electronics, while Li Jianxi's family holds less than 5% of Samsung Electronics.However, the Li Jianxi family barely achieved control of Samsung Electronics through complex equity relationships.

Li Jianxi did not expect Zhang Jun to act so quickly and buy the shares of Samsung Electronics regardless of the cost. This will have a great impact on his future control of Samsung Electronics. If Zhang Jun does not support his decision, it will seriously hinder Samsung Electronics. development of.

Therefore, Li Jianxi had to win over Zhang Jun.

He often came to visit Zhang Jun and invited Zhang Jun to his home for dinner.

By the second half of 1999, the impact of the Asian financial crisis had been reduced, the Korean economy began to recover, and Zhang Jun’s acquisition journey was over. When he went to the banquet, he vaguely revealed some meaning.

"Mr. Zhang is going back to China?" Li Jianxi couldn't help asking when he heard the words.

"Almost, but it's rare to come to South Korea. I decided to go around and enjoy the natural scenery of South Korea before going back." Zhang Jun replied with a smile.

When she learned that Zhang Jun wanted to travel in Korea, Li Fuzhen, the eldest princess of Samsung, volunteered to be Zhang Jun's tour guide.

"Mr. Zhang, I am very familiar with the scenic spots in South Korea, so let me be your tour guide!" Li Fuzhen finished speaking with anticipation in his eyes. A super idol, she has worshiped Zhang Jun since she was a child, and grew up listening to Zhang Jun's legendary deeds.

Zhang Jun smiled when he heard the words: "I have Miss Li as my tour guide, of course I have no reason to refuse."

……

Jeju Island, this is Zhang Jun's last stop in Korea.

There is more fog in the morning, with a hint of coolness.

Seeing that Li Fuzhen was shivering from the cold, Zhang Jun took off his coat and put it on Li Fuzhen.

This was a very common move, but it was accidentally photographed by a nearby tourist.

Tourists were amazed when they saw the photos.

Immediately sold the photo to the media.

Zhang Jun and Li Fuzhen are both household names in South Korea.

If there are scandals between the two, it will be big news...

That night, all the major media reported that Zhang Jun and Princess Samsung traveled to Jeju Island together, and their relationship was ambiguous, causing a sensation in Korea!
