Reborn as the youngest son of a chaebol, let's get to know his sister-in-law!

Chapter 414 The Past of Shunyang Group

But it is obvious that this old man has always existed in obscurity.

"When did he join Shunyang Group?"

"We met when we opened a textile factory in Daegu after the war. We had neither technology nor machines at that time, so we had to go to Japan and buy a second-hand machine. He even brought a Japanese with him in order to learn faster. Technicians come to operate the machines, and this is the beginning of Shunyang Group.”

Dojun put away the smile on his face.

This means that this old man is no longer a first-class hero, but a founding veteran.

"He is a good partner. When I make plans, he puts them into action and sticks to them. Even when I am hesitant because of uncertainty about the development of some enterprises, he still comforts me. 'Let's start first, take it slow and see', and take the lead. In fact, if he had stayed with me, I might have been in the position of president."

"Then why does such a central and important figure become like this?"

To be honest, Chen Daojun's first thought was that maybe Chen Yangzhe kicked him out.

As the group grows, Zhu Binghai's status will also increase. He may ask to share the group's achievements. His grandfather is not such a generous person.

But Chen Daojun's guess was wrong.

"It's been over 20 years since you spat on me as a kid and thought I didn't notice."

Chen Yangzhe frowned slightly, as if there was that moment in his memory.
"That was when the new government seized power and wielded swords and guns. The Japanese government always does this. They try to capture those who have money first, and then blackmail them in various ways."

Chen Daojun thought in his mind, "Could it be caused by the resistance to the new government? But isn't Shunyang the company that followed the trend? I remember that Shunyang thrived during this period?"

Chen Yangzhe did not stop and continued.

"Everyone is aware of this, so if they ask for money, they will give it. If they want to build a factory in a certain area, these guys will not hesitate to establish connections first."

"Then did he resist the new government?"

"No, how is this possible? Binghai was also doing business at that time. We thought the business at that time was enough to make a profit in addition to the money given to the government. Do you know Dongming Group?"

How could Chen Daojun not know?
He has read some reports that Dongming Group was the number one company in the business world before the mid-20s.

As soon as the new government came in, on the surface it asked them to make national contributions, but in fact it was a blatant robbery, and in the end the company disappeared without a trace.

"I know, I've heard it before."

"Zhu Binghai is very close to Chairman Jiang of Dongming Group. Thanks to him, I also got some help."

This made Chen Daojun even more confused.

Whatever the reason, the competition has disappeared.

Is there any reason for the two of them to break up because of this?

"At that time, the strongman was born, the entire business world succumbed to the new government control, and no one dared to stand up."

Twenty years ago, ZZ power could squeeze the company at will, which shows that the scale of the company was not that big at that time, but it is not possible now.

Now, the size of the chaebol group has expanded to an extent that the government cannot control.

"Did he choose to support Dongming Group at that time?"

"Yes, no matter how close we are, Shunyang Group is our hard work, we can't destroy it together, can we?"

"Then why...?
Chen Yangzhe continued with a wry smile:

"Because I didn't stand still, it didn't take long for the new government to stabilize the situation. After the Dongming Group was robbed, the government had many businesses in its hands, but they didn't know how to run them. Someone had to take over."

Chen Daojun immediately understood what he meant.

Well, Chen Yangzhe is someone who will never miss such an opportunity.

"Among the six subsidiaries of Dongming Group, Dongming Industrial, Dongming Heavy Industry, Dongming Development, Dongming Food...the price is about 1/10 of the price. I swallowed 4 of them in one go, because I won these core companies. Shunyang Group has achieved She Tun Xiang, and the heavy industry sector has experienced tremendous development."

Chen Daojun nodded, so that's what happened.

No wonder he always feels a little unclear about the key development process of Shunyang Group.

That's it!

Now, although it was vague, Chen Daojun at least knew the basic ins and outs.

"When Binghai knew about this, he was furious. He said that President Jiang had been so kind to him. How could I take advantage of him like this? Even if I bought this from the government, he couldn't tolerate it. He said people There should be the most basic morality... I have never seen him so angry, and this is the last time he will be angry with me."

Chen Daojun understood why Zhu Binghai was like this.

It's like the house in later generations was repaid when the mortgage was repaid, and the house was sold at a low price when the person was punished for breach of trust. He lost a lot of money, but was snatched away by relatives and friends at a low price.

It doesn't matter if you can't help. It's hard for people to stop gossiping after something like this is done.

"Then have you been like this since then?"

"Yes."

"Looking at it now, your relationship is still as good as brothers. Didn't you say anything about breaking up the relationship at the beginning?"

"Oh, no, I have been going back to see him regularly for so many years, but he is getting older, and I am getting older too. We are all a lot older, so what else can we care about? We miss the past and our friends, so My temper is not as bad as when I was young, and my heart has become softer, but to be honest, apart from today, we haven’t chatted like friends and brothers for a long time.”

Now, Chen Daojun only has one question left.

Why did grandpa have to say hello to the old man himself?
"Even if I'm no longer here in the future, you should treat him like you treat me. Treat him like your grandfather and visit him often. Do you understand?"

"I know I will serve him like I serve my grandfather."

"Yes, if you are in trouble and want help and advice, as long as it's not a big deal, he will give you an answer."

"Looks like he's a smart guy."

"So, should I tell every detail about this group of people to seek the old man's opinion?"

As for Li Xuezai, Chen Yangzhe never mentioned it during the whole process.

"Will anyone in the group still remember him?"

Chen Yangzhe smiled and his eyes became brighter.

As long as Chen Daojun has this attitude, it doesn't matter if others help more or less.

Zhu Binghai is not short of money either!
"Of course, although he has been away from the mall for a long time, his mind is still quite bright. If anything goes wrong, just call him."

Chen Daojun understood what grandpa meant.

What's so difficult about taking care of a powerful retired man?
Soon, they arrived at the hospital. Now in the hospital parking lot, Chen Runji and Li Xuezai had been waiting anxiously.

Hearing the roar of the car, they knew that Chen Yangzhe and Chen Daojun drove back to the hospital.

Chen Daojun got out of the car first and opened the door for his grandfather himself. Chen Yangzhe got out of the car.

He ignored the wheelchair the doctor brought and walked straight to the elevator. He looked at the group of people greeting him and said casually:

"No matter how many people you brought? They've all dispersed. Let's go up."

He strode to the elevator, looked back and said:

"I don't want to see anyone now. You all should go back. I just want to be alone today."

People in the parking lot had to watch as Chen Yangzhe walked into the elevator, turned around, and the elevator door quickly closed.

Next to it, Chen Runji got into another elevator.

"Daojun, you can go and take a rest. I'm going to see the dean."

When the elevator door where Chen Runji was riding closed, Li Xuezai let out a long sigh, seemingly relieved.

"Dojun, are you tired?"

"I'm not tired. I took a nap while going up the mountain."

"Then do you have time to talk to me?"

"Of course!" The two came to a cafe near the hospital.

"How's it going over there in the mountains?"

"It's rougher there than I thought."

"What? Simple?"

Chen Daojun couldn't help but laugh when he thought of the curator's embarrassment: "Yes, it is the history of Shunyang Group, but doesn't such a short history seem a bit pitiful? There are only a few photos and some souvenirs."

"Really? People who have never experienced it personally may not have a particularly deep impression on these histories."

“Should I call it Grandpa’s photo album?”

"Photo album? Haha, yes, this title is very appropriate, because this is where the president keeps his memories."

Li Xuezai looked at Chen Daojun with a smile.

"Didn't the president say anything?"

"He told me about the car accident."

Chen Daojun simply recounted the conversation between the two.

Just to observe Li Xuezai's reaction.

Chen Daojun did not miss the twitch of his eyebrows. Li Xuezai must not have expected that Chen Yangzhe knew everything.

The incident involved Li Biyu, and Li Xuezai was extremely panicked, but he forced himself to calm down and forced out a smile:
"Then do you know?"

"Well...of course, because I investigated."

Li Xuezai took a deep breath: "Can I ask a question?"

"No problem at all."

Hearing Chen Daojun's words, Li Xuezai's eyes flashed with light, staring straight into Chen Daojun's eyes, and said quietly:

"Are you sure you can forgive her?"

"This is my grandfather's request, so I must listen."

"Um…"

Li Xuezai felt a little calmer and took a sip of coffee. Chen Daojun was waiting for him to speak.

"Since the president has told you the truth, of course I can only choose to swear allegiance to you."

What does this guy mean by saying he is loyal?
Chen Daojun couldn't believe that he had really eliminated Shunyang's second unstable factor like this.

"No, you can't believe even a single punctuation mark in what this person says."

Chen Daojun secretly reminded himself in his heart that it was possible for this person to lie to him personally.

Chen Daojun has already experienced the consequences of trusting followers easily, and has also learned lessons from the edge of death.

"I heard that the president arranged for Wu Bingjun to be given to you. He is very useful, just like a well-forged sword, but the sword has two edges. When it hurts others, it is easy to hurt yourself, so you have to be careful. Use it sparingly.”

"Okay, I'll keep it in mind."

"Well, family issues don't seem to concern me... Didn't the president say anything about the group?"

Li Xuezai said so much just to make Chen Daojun relax and come up with the key words.

Since Chen Daojun made a promise to Li Xuezai, Li Xuezai would naturally want to know what the president and Chen Daojun were talking about that night.

In particular, there is no mention of myself.

"He only asked me if I had the confidence to make Shunyang bigger. Other than that, there was nothing special."

"No more? Is this all?"

"Of course, Director Li, but I would like to ask, grandpa, do you want to give me more controlling rights in the group?"

Li Xuezai shook his head and said silently:

"Everyone thinks that the president has one or two trump cards hidden in his hands, but... everyone is wrong. The president does not have a controlling stake in the group. The rest is real estate and deposits. However, I am not sure about the president's personal property. Not much is known, these are managed by private attorneys.”

"Are you sure?"

"I've seen the document with my own eyes, sure."

Hearing Li Xuezai's affirmative answer, Chen Daojun sneered inwardly.

This guy is really dishonest.

How could Chen Yangzhe, a guy who took one step at a time and looked at the next step, not have any backup plan? He remembered that there was a list of things.

"You look disappointed? Haha."

"I've been looking forward to this."

"If you make a mistake, maybe your expectation may come true."

Chen Daojun frowned, what does this mean?
Seeing Chen Daojun wrinkled and headless, Li Xuezai gently shook his hand.

"If you show weakness appropriately, you may show it earlier. Remember, a child who cries will get milk."

"Really? You want me to show weakness?"

Chen Daojun thought secretly, and would Li Xuanzai be so kind?
"Ah, don't think too much, because this is just my personal opinion. This...maybe the president has other considerations. By the way, I heard that you saw a person on the way up the mountain?"

"I did meet a person, he must be someone you know. His name is Zhu Binghai."

"What! Teacher Zhu?"

Li Xuezai looked surprised.

"Yes, grandpa asked me to ask this person for help if I have any difficulties in the future. He asked me to visit him often and say hello. Are you familiar with Zhu Binghai?

"of course."

Looking at the faint smile on Li Xuezai's face, I guess there must be many good memories between him and Zhu Binghai.

"He is a strong man, courageous and patient. He could have been half of Shunyang, but he chose to put everything aside and turn around without regrets... He is a real man, oh, I think it will The reason the president asked you to see him is that if the president is not here, he might take care of you."

"I understand."

"After all, this is a smart man. I always call him teacher. It doesn't hurt to ask for advice from time to time. I also call him sometimes."

Li Xuezai said while drinking a coffee cup.

"But the important thing now is to make up their mind. If they know that the president is leaving, everyone will show their true colors, especially Vice President Chen Rongji will be the first to attack. I don't know whether the first prey will be you or Dongji, but I He will definitely be kicked out immediately."

"Will you help me?"

"Don't you want to put the things in my hands and let me fight for the control of Shunyang for you?"

Li Xuezai asked Chen Daojun while laughing.

"The second generation of a chaebol has flaws that can be exploited. This should be easy for you, right? Haha."

Chen Daojun looked at Li Xuezai and sneered in his heart.

This guy is really a loach, very naughty.

Seven percent truth, three lies mixed in.

There is no useful information at all.
