Chapter 166 I need the title of king
Chapter 166 I need the title of king
Did Lin Wei find someone to discuss the acquisition of NHN?
talked.
Not only to talk, but also to talk about the real thing.
He sent Yoon Hyun-woo as a representative, and also invited the professional managers of the Seoul consortium to board the gate of NHN Corporation to start continuous negotiations.
In addition, NW also publicly stated that NW believes that it is difficult to seize NHN's leading position as an engine and portal website, and hopes to complete its original rhetoric of building an ecosystem around Axu through mergers and acquisitions.
Even many friends in the industry were surprised, and they called Lin Wei to test it out. Of course, Lin Wei responded unanimously: "It's true, it's all true, if you can buy it, you must buy it."
The people at NHN were overjoyed.
As the largest search engine and portal website nowadays, NHN's income is actually relatively limited. Apart from the game part trying to get a share of the online game segment, the main source of income is still advertising fees.
Although it is said that he earned a lot, it is indeed not a lot.
Now that Shunyang is throwing coins, Lin Wei, who has the capital behind him, waved the banknotes and vowed to complete the last piece of the puzzle of his Internet empire. This is undoubtedly great news for NHN.
While the stock price rose in response, the valuation of the company also changed. Even the important directors who originally acquiesced in the proposal of financing and mergers and acquisitions began to hesitate, thinking whether there is still greater potential to be tapped in their own industry?
Undoubtedly, it is normal for such a level of M&A financing to be delayed for several months, especially when Shunyang and NW are targeting NHN at the same time, it is likely to attract more investors' interest .
Invisibly, it became more difficult for Shunyang to acquire NHN.
This is exactly what Lin Wei wanted to do.
He had no interest in acquiring NHN, and launching his own browser, home page, and search engine was a must for the company.
The value of things like the homepage is inflated, and the final purchase price of hao123 on the other side of the ocean is only a few million yuan. Although the search engine is very valuable, but based on the current user base of NW, as long as they are willing to spend money, they may not be able to share it. a cup of soup.
As long as it completes its own ecological closed loop, NW with a large number of users will have a high probability of changing users' usage habits. As long as it uses future foresight to improve user experience and guide the development team to continuously optimize customer service, users will naturally choose the better one. .
In fact, Lin Wei's idea now is very clear - he just wants Shun Yang to spend a lot of money to buy NHN first, and then launch his own software to compete with the opponent.
He who comes from the future knows that social software is far more important than other things. Whether it is a webpage or a search engine, these are all replaceable, but if it is to replace the commonly used chat software, then it can It's much more troublesome.
The 3Q war back then was an earth-shattering one, but the results also proved that in the face of huge social software, replaceable service-type software will not be its opponent.
Lin Wei is very confident that if he plays a match between Axu and naver in South Korea, he will not lose.
On the car heading to Shi Dongchu's mansion, Lin Wei took the documents, checked them one by one, and asked thoughtfully.
"Shunyang's current core industry has suffered setbacks year after year, so it's impossible to just rely on its laurels, right?
Especially after paying a huge fine. What about the materials of the Qianya Consortium? "
After Lin Wei finished speaking, Yin Xuanyou quickly opened the briefcase and took out a file bag.
Lin Wei took it apart to take a look, hummed, and pondered, "Tell me, what do they rely on to maintain their profits?"
"First of all, although the automobile industry was defeated by Future Automobile in 03, the 01 Shunyang Automobile is still the favorite of many consumers. The car still occupies 03% of the low-end domestic market today, which is only 22% lower than the 28% share of Future Group.”
Yin Xuanyou didn't need a document at all, and just blurted out: "At the same time, in the food field, Shunyang Ramen also achieved a large amount of sales in 02 because of a hit advertisement and film and television sponsorship.
Shunyang Steel”
Lin Wei listened patiently, and after looking through the documents in his hand one by one, thoughtfully, he chuckled and said, "It's a big chaebol after all, three collapsed and two rise again."
"However, as far as the current situation is concerned, with the 03 new models and the quality control problems of Shunyang Iron and Steel that broke out, the sales of vehicles should actually decline to a certain extent. The purpose is to seize the market for similar types of vehicles.
Analysts within the company and I agree that Shunyang Auto's sales should suffer a sharp decline this year, and total sales at the end of the year should drop by more than 40% compared to last year.
Considering the steel factory's quality control problems caused by the decline in reputation and product recalls, the final revenue of Shunyang Iron and Steel in 03 should also decline compared to last year.
Based on the asset size and last year's financial report, we estimate the total amount Shunyang will spend on mergers and acquisitions this year. Their current liquidity, even taking into account possible loans approved by banks, will not exceed 4500 billion. "
"Tsk tsk, 500 billion."
Lin Wei sighed.
Now, with his lavish spending, investment, and maintenance of operations, even though many companies under him have begun a positive cycle of profitability, the funds that can be used for mergers and acquisitions at hand are probably only a little over 1000 billion at most.
This is based on the fact that funds for the Busan Haeundae project have been obtained.
Even if the dividends at the end of the year and the money that Jinmen can use are added, the funds that Lin Wei can use are probably only 2000 billion yuan, but not all of the 2000 billion yuan can be spent.
Taking into account the personnel expenses, publicity expenses, takeaway platform construction, Android-based mobile phone system development, server rental fees, etc. of the online shopping platform next year
At least 1000 billion must continue to be invested in expanding operations to make Lin Wei's business stable. What's even more terrible is that next year there will be no chance of making a fortune like the Haeundae Project, which is a rare opportunity in several years. The company will Profit, it can be seen that the amount of investment that can be controlled will be even less.
The core of NW Company is NW Venture Capital. In addition to his own company, Lin Wei also actively acquires small and medium-sized game companies to fill vacancies, and invests in stocks and real estate to ensure the balance of asset ratios.
"It would be great if I could eat Shunyang Automobile if I had the chance."
Lin Wei said suddenly.
At the moment of time, the automobile industry is still the most profitable. With the foundation of the automobile industry, he even wants to take Musk's job and develop a Tesla brand or something.
Yin Xuanyou showed a helpless smile: "President Lin, Shunyang Automobile is the core enterprise of Shunyang, and I want to get it. Unless Shunyang Group falls apart"
"Why not?" Lin Wei raised his eyebrows, thoughtfully, he vaguely found the key to Shun Yang.
"Shunyang's family is harmonious, isn't it? As far as I know, the former president of Shunyang gave birth to three sons, and each of these three sons received a lot of inheritance, although Chen Xingjun's father took the most , but isn’t it mainly in the core industry?”
As Lin Wei said, Yin Xuanyou instantly understood what he meant, and also pondered: "You mean, like Future Group"
The Future Group used to be a well-known giant, but after the former chairman stepped down, the future group was torn into multiple parts in the struggle for power and profit by the heirs. Subsidiaries have been separated to operate independently.
If it weren't for Wu Yanxiu, the current chairman of the Future Group, who has extraordinary abilities and equally astonishing business methods, allowing the Future Group to make a comeback with its core industry, the Future Group may not be the top chaebol by now.
Even so, the future group also lost the possibility of aspiring to the top, and became the last position of the chaebol group, which is better than Shunyang, but it is also limited.
Yin Xuanyou said softly: "It's still a bit difficult. After all, Shunyang has reached the third generation anyway, and the conflicts that should have been resolved long ago, and the business conditions of other subsidiaries are just like that. It's uncertain if we separate. It’s even worse, now I want them to separate their families.”
"Then let Shun Yang suffer even more."
Lin Wei saw it clearly.
He sat up, his eyes piercing: "Now Shunyang Group has received the help of the Qianya Consortium, and it is the moment when Chen Xingjun is about to take office. NHN is the key to their next step. They are trying to find a way out with the money in hand. If If you find the right one, you will naturally continue to be brilliant, and the problem will be covered up, but what if you fail?"
Lin Wei looked into Yin Xuanyou's eyes in the rearview mirror, and said softly, "If——I mean, if, after Chen Xingjun took office, Shunyang Group not only did not improve, but instead encountered a lot of problems in the new investment field, The investment money was wasted, and I have to burn a lot of money to seize the market with me
What do you think people from Shunyang would think? "
Lin Wei didn't wait for Yin Xuanyou's reply, and then gave his own answer: "There are only a few people like me who are sure about the future existence of the Internet, especially old people like Shunyang - the president is a fool, the board of directors A group of old antiques, and everyone in the family has their own plans.
Once the investment is too large, there will be no return on income, but the situation will continue to burn money, there will naturally be voices against Chen Xingjun within Shun Yang.
When NHN is defeated by us, he can only go back to Shunyang's physical business in despair, find his field of expertise, and use the remaining money to stop losses."
Lin Wei squinted his eyes: "We need information - at least find a way to know, if Shun Yang's investment does not go well, where will the next investment direction be placed.
As long as they can make Shunyang lose the working capital in their hands, they must use their capital. Once the foundation of the company is involved-will those shareholders be satisfied?
Will the rest of his family who hold shares in the subsidiary be satisfied? "
Lin Wei speculated, pondered secretly, and finally came to a conclusion.
This is not something he can do alone.
He wanted to drive Shun Yang to the end of his life, wanted to distract Shun Yang, chose to disband and reorganize, and let Shun Yang go down completely. A lone wolf would not be able to eat alone.
Other big crocodiles had to join in, see Shunyang's flaws together, and decide to dismember this giant beast together, and each eat a lot of food.
Lin Wei stopped talking, but began to think.
The other big companies are cold-blooded animals with no profit, and it is impossible for them to fight Shun Yang together. They will only join the winner when one side is completely defeated. Knives and forks to enjoy dinner.
To get them involved, Lin Wei can't just rely on his mouth and a plan, otherwise, the plan might end up on Chen Xingjun's desk at that time—big chaebols are more willing to maintain than to meet new people. balance now.
Lin Wei understood it all too well.
Chen Xingjun's ability is limited. If he is in charge of Shunyang, Shunyang may be able to maintain his status as a chaebol by relying on his size, but want to go further?He has no such ability.
But Lin Wei is different - if the presidents of the group of chaebols were to choose an opponent, Lin Wei, a dangerous stranger who climbed up from the bottom, obviously would never be a good choice.
Seeing that Lin Wei lost his voice and fell into deep thought, Yin Xuanyou just pushed his glasses. He was thinking, hoping to relieve Lin Wei's worries, and wrote down Lin Wei's proposal, and planned to start talking with Lin Wei tomorrow. Today's think tanks think about countermeasures.
Now that Lin Wei's company is growing, in addition to management talents, it naturally also has a complete secretary team and a professional investment team. The entire NW Venture Capital Company is no longer just a show for holding shares in companies such as Axu, but a real investment company. Capable elite team.
This is also the reason why Lin Wei can get off work at five o'clock every day.
When I came back to my senses, the car was quite stable.
After Cha Taizhi got out of the car, he looked around first, then opened Lin Wei's car door. He slowly got out of the car, while Yin Xuanyou opened the trunk and took out a bottle of precious wine as a door-to-door gift. Lin Wei didn't use it at all now. After telling these things, Yin Xuanyou will take into account everything he hasn't considered, and he will just do things and come up with ideas, and Yin Xuanyou will naturally fill in the details.
Lin Wei smiled at him and nodded, took the famous wine, stepped out and rang the doorbell, Shi Dongchu's wife soon opened the door with a smile, Lin Wei stepped in, Shi Dongchu was wearing a shirt, sitting on the sofa, raised his head She glanced at him, smiled, and stood up to greet him.
"coming?"
After more than half a year of running-in, the relationship between the two has become much closer than before. Lin Wei smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Shi, I suddenly said that I want to meet, I am really disturbing."
"Hey, your aunt is still talking about whether you will come here during the Chinese New Year. Sit down, we have to wait for a while for dinner, what do you want to drink? This bottle you brought, or something else?"
Shi Dongchu smiled and stretched out his hand to signal Lin Wei to sit down.
Lin Wei handed the wine to his wife, sat on the sofa, smiled and said, "It's all fine."
"I'm most afraid that a guy like you can say anything. Then do as I like. Two days ago, someone sent a bottle of good red wine. Today we will just have a few sips."
Anyone who has been to Lin Wei's wedding banquet knows that this guy is adaptive to drinking, no matter how much you drink, he is slightly tipsy, looks like he is going to be drunk, but no matter how much he drinks next, he turns his head and goes to the bathroom, It's as if I can drink more than I want.
Even Mou Yingxiong, a well-known alcoholic in the wealthy circle, once said something at the banquet—he has been drinking for so many years, but he has never seen anyone who can drink better than Lin Wei, and he might not be able to put the two together. My own son-in-law.
As soon as these words came out, anyone who knew about Mou Yingxiong's drinking capacity would basically stop drinking with Lin Wei.
This saved Lin Wei a lot of trouble. Anyway, he didn't have any hobby of drinking. It was fun to have a few drinks with his family, but it was purely for socializing with outsiders.
Seeing that Lin Wei readily agreed, Shi Dongchu personally went to find a bottle of red wine and opened it. After sobering up, the food was served on the table.
Lin Wei was not in a hurry to get straight to the point, but smiled and chatted with him about life, family, work, and unborn children as usual.
"Have you gone to the hospital for a checkup, boy or girl? It should be possible to find out, right?"
Shi Dongchu asked curiously.
Lin Wei just said nonchalantly: "Boys and girls are the same, as long as they are my children."
Shi Dongchu's wife smiled, but her expression was a little dull and she didn't speak. Not having any children was Shi Dongchu's biggest pain. It's not that she didn't have any, but she died before she was ten years old, and she couldn't have children after that.
"Really? That's good. After all, you are a young man, and your thinking is indeed different from that of the older generation."
After Shi Dongchu finished speaking, he paused and said with a smile: "If you are born, when you can see people, don't forget to let me see it too - I thought this kid Zhong Jiu would start a family and start a career before you. As a result, we now have an entertainment company, haha, I think marriage is out of the question, and I don’t know if there are any illegitimate children.”
When Shi Dongchu talked about Li Zhongjiu, his tone was a bit complicated, while Lin Wei raised his brows slightly, paused the chopsticks in his hands slightly, and after a short thought, he simply spoke directly along the topic.
"President Li's current entertainment company is also very impressive. It has also started filming several movies this year, and the signed artists are also very popular."
Lin Wei put down his chopsticks, picked up the red wine glass, took a sip, and then waited for Shi Dong's teasing words with a smile to end, and saw the picture.
"that is."
He suddenly looked troubled.
Shi Dong gave a thump in his heart, and glanced at his wife, who sighed, "I'll go make a pot of tea, and drink less wine at night."
"Thank you, auntie." After Lin Wei finished speaking, Shi Dongchu waited until his wife left, then looked at Lin Wei calmly: "What did he do?"
"I can't say what I did. Chairman Shi, are you satisfied with the performance of Golden Gate Entertainment?"
Lin Wei asked first.
Shi Dongchu nodded without hesitation: "The artist you signed has already reached billions of dollars in this year's advertising fee alone, not counting salary and other sharing, free publicity and other factors.
Isn’t the Infinity Challenge you made known as a national variety show now?I also found time to watch a few episodes, which were really interesting.
I heard that your debut girl group next year has also been decided?That must be a lot of money again. "
Lin Wei nodded, but then said: "To be honest, in order to create benefits for Jinmen, whether it's the commercial shooting or the artist arrangement of the show, a lot of my wife's connections have been used.
Although Kinmen's signboard is also useful, to be honest, Kinmen Entertainment has made it to where it is today, compared to our efforts, the Seoul Daily has contributed more. "
Shi Dongchu nodded silently, just looking at Lin Wei, waiting for him to say something crucial.
Lin Wei said slowly: "Today, everyone also acquiesces in the relationship between the Golden Gate Group and me, that is to say, I believe that the Golden Gate Group will go smoothly this year. In a sense, my contribution should not just stop at the financial report superior."
Do you want to further become an executive director?
Or do you want more equity dividends?
Shi Dongchu couldn't make up his mind, so he could only hum and continue listening.
Lin Wei suddenly said at this moment: "Although Winner's company is Li Zhongjiuxi's personal company, Li Zhongjiuxi is the president, executive, and board member of Kinmen after all - so Winner naturally enjoys Kinmen's benefits.
If it's just that, I wouldn't bring it up here, but the key point is that if President Li knows that all of this is Seoul's influence, he is silently using this influence to benefit himself and at the same time damage the interests of Golden Gate Entertainment. "
Lin Wei played with the red wine glass and said softly, "Does this count as eating and drinking?"
This is a heavy hat.
Don't forget that although Jinmen is shiny now, there are some factors in it.
For gangsters, there are only three kinds of people who cannot be forgiven.
The informer who betrayed his brother.
A worm that harms gang interests.
A traitor who eats everything inside and outside.
The whistleblower will surely die, the moth depends on the situation, and eating inside and outside will lead to death.
Shi Dongchu's eyes widened slightly. He had not heard of any conflicts between Lin Wei and Li Zhongjiu for a whole year. In his heart, he felt somewhat relaxed and felt that the two people's feud was over. In fact, Li Zhongjiu The distance from Lin Wei was getting farther and farther, and he didn't think there was any conflict between the two of them.
He also heard about Li Zhongjiu's WINNER company, but he let it go. There was no way. From Shi Dongchu's point of view, he not only dismantled Jinmen Entertainment and handed it over to Lin Wei, but also couldn't give Li Zhongjiu any guarantee in the future.
After all, he is Shi Dong's vassal minister, and he has made countless contributions along the way. The two of them love Li Zhongjiu like a father and son. If he treats Li Zhongjiu like this, not to mention what Li Zhongjiu will think, other people under him will probably feel chilled too.
Therefore, he chose to let Li Zhongjiu carry out his personal business and turn a blind eye. Lin Wei also chose to ignore it tacitly. Ding Qing and others did not find trouble because of this. Shi Dong thought, this should be The tacit understanding between the whole company fulfilled his loyalty.
But now that Lin Wei spoke so emphatically, Shi Dongchu couldn't help feeling a little uneasy—yes, uneasy.
As Lin Wei's current status has improved by leaps and bounds, in the past year, he has successively brought to the construction company one-third of the construction index of the Haeundae development plan, and the second-phase development index of the wealthy villa area known as the Sky City. , and the Zhao Group jointly won the precious land in the city center, and will build a landmark top-level apartment
Logistics companies, entertainment companies, etc. are advancing with an astonishing momentum. Although most of the shares have been taken over by Lin Wei and the Seoul Consortium, the assets of the group have still skyrocketed because of this, and Lin Wei has also taken over the shares. It's not for nothing, the real money invested in is also invested by Lin Wei himself
Nowadays, even Ding Qing, who is also the deputy director, is faintly inferior to Lin Wei on the board of directors. move closer.
Future Group has always believed that before Lin Wei came to power within Kinmen, there were too many unstable factors. Although there were many shares held, most of them were based on dividends. Actual influence
It's not what it used to be.
Shi Dongchu squinted his eyes and looked at Lin Wei: "If you have any thoughts, you might as well tell them."
Lin Wei calmly wiped his mouth with a paper towel on the table, picked up the red wine glass, swayed the red wine in the glass, and said calmly: "First, I allow President Li to continue to develop business with the background of Jinmen, but not my background. I will let it out and tell everyone that his winner has nothing to do with me and is a clear competitor.
This is his punishment for crossing the line.
Second, the winner company can only get one grand award trophy for Jiang Donghu from the three major channels this year, and the best variety show of the year for his two days and one night. After all, his two days and one night is the ratings champion on Saturday. Other than that, Besides, please don't look forward to the awards from other stations, and don't look for relationships.
Thirdly, recently I heard that Winner's recruiting methods are not very clean, and the food is not very good-looking. After all, we are all from our own family, and everyone will inevitably treat me and him as a group. This is a bit wronged for me.
Doing business in a proper manner, I will save some face for him. If he insists on smashing the signboard and stinking me, then I will not add trouble, because I am already looking at President Shi's face. "
Lin Wei's words made Shi Dong look unhappy, but he was a scheming person after all. After just a few words, he suddenly asked: "Has someone found you?"
"Yeah." Lin Wei took a sip of red wine: "After all, I am the only one who respects Li Zhongjiu. He can offend people wherever he goes. Someone secretly asked me about my relationship with him. I'm afraid he can't bear his arrogance."
Lin Wei smiled softly: "The background of Jinmen can certainly shock most people, but the TV station. After all, I still have some connections here. If it really gets to the point where you die, it won't be a good thing for me."
Looking at Shi Dongchu, Lin Wei said seriously: "I'm just a small director of Jinmen, but I'm also the next chairman of Seoul. If there is a conflict between the two, Seoul will naturally take the lead."
After Lin Wei finished speaking, he looked at Shi Dongchu, and said softly, pointedly: "After all, although Uncle Mou already wants to abdicate and make way for the virtuous, but Chairman Shi is still growing old and strong, he is still the chairman after all. , this choice is placed in front of President Shi, I am afraid it is not difficult to make a choice, right?"
Shi Dongchu's heart trembled. He looked at Lin Wei, but Lin Wei seemed to be completely broken tonight. Not only did he not mean the slightest bit of tact, but he got even worse.
Lin Wei put down his red wine glass and watched Shi Dong take out the cigars on the table: "Uncle, I haven't smoked for a long time and you teach me how to taste cigars? I have never been good at it before."
Shi Dongchu nodded, still thinking about Lin Wei's meaning in his mind, and when he was cutting the cigar, Lin Wei said: "Actually, I have endured a lot of things for the sake of uncle, including you from Cui Check the spy files taken over there.”
As soon as he said this, Shi Dongchu was stunned. The cut cigar end in his hand fell out of the ashtray, rolled around on the table and fell to the ground.
But Lin Wei looked at Shi Dongchu, his breathing was steady, and his voice was relaxed and calm: "It seems that uncle knows what I'm talking about. For such a long time, even if Li Zhongjiu slapped me face to face, I never revealed his secret to the public. .
But now, under the influence of the foreign environment, uncle, I can no longer just be a small director. "
He looked at Shi Dongchu, and said word by word: "You must first have the status of a king. Only then can you have the power of a king. As long as I am still a director of Jinmen, I will not be able to become the chairman of Seoul. force."
"Uncle Mou has decided to retire after my wife has a baby. Uncle, I have to make a choice, and you should too."
Lin Wei took the cigar from Shi Dong, took out the lighter on his desk, and lit it slowly.
Shi Dong didn't say a word, he just lit one himself, and Lin Wei sipped the cigar slowly, feeling the long-lost feeling of nicotine swirling in his mouth. After a long time, I suddenly take a sip, and I can also feel the joy of nicotine flowing gradually.
He took a sip of the red wine, but the red wine was not enough to match the strong cigar. He turned his head to look, and asked softly, "Can I have a glass of whiskey?"
"Give me a glass of ice too." Shi Dongchu said, watching Lin Wei stand up to get the wine. After a long while, he put down the wine glass, then he took a sip of the strong wine, swallowing with the cold wine and hot Sense, clear your mind.
"If I said, I'm not planning to retire yet, what would you do? Get rid of me with that driver outside the door?"
Shi Dongchu looked at Lin Wei.
Lin Wei shook his head, and said cleanly: "For Kinmen, I will do my best, except for Kinmen entertainment and logistics, I will bid to take it away, and I will not take Kinmen construction and existing work plans.
For today's Kinmen, although one arm has been cut off, on the other hand, without me, the Kinmen building as the trunk would not be so strong this year.
It won’t take much effort to bring Li Zhongjiu Xi’s Winner Entertainment Company back to rebuild Jinmen Entertainment, and then cooperate with Jinmen Construction to reconfigure a set of logistics facilities, or I can also provide logistics services at a friendly price.”
Lin Wei looked at the cigar, put it on the ashtray, let it burn slowly, picked up the whiskey glass, and drank with ice cubes.
While chewing the ice cubes with a calm expression, he said softly: "When you come out to hang out, you must show loyalty. Brother Ding Qing treats me with loyalty, and President Shi treats me well. At this step, seven points are destiny, and one point depends on hard work.
Of the rest, half is in Kinmen and half is in Seoul.
I don't want to ruin the brotherhood for temporary gain.
In fact, if President Shi doesn't want to retire, it's not bad - although Brother Ding Qing is not young, he is definitely willing to wait until you retire. "
Lin Wei showed a faint smile, and let out a long sigh of relief, to settle his mind.
He looked at Shi Dongchu and said softly: "You know, I had been looking forward to the day when I became the president of Kinmen. I thought that would be the most glorious moment in my life, but now I look back, I've got wider roads and more choices
I am very clear that Kinmen is your painstaking effort and your lifelong ambition. It is true to make such a request. As a junior, time is fate, so please don’t blame me, uncle.
Coming today, I don’t necessarily want an answer just for today—it’s just that I don’t want it to end in fratricide. "
After Lin Wei finished speaking, he calmly stopped talking and let the cigar smoke linger. He just took a sip from time to time, paired it with whiskey, and waited patiently.
It wasn't until Shi Dongchu's wife almost boiled a pot of tea dry that Shi Dongchu issued the order to evict the guests with some difficulty.
"Sorry, Lin Wei, I can't give you an answer today."
"I can understand."
Lin Wei got up with a smile, looked at Shi Dongchu, and bowed at a rare [-] degrees: "I will never forget your appreciation for me, but things are just like this, time is not waiting for me."
"Yes." Shi Dongchu reached out and patted him on the back with a complicated expression. He sighed, forced a smile, and sent him away. He stood by the window and watched Lin Wei's car gradually go away.
He closed his eyes for a long time and finally took out his cell phone.
Called Li Zhongjiu.
(End of this chapter)
Did Lin Wei find someone to discuss the acquisition of NHN?
talked.
Not only to talk, but also to talk about the real thing.
He sent Yoon Hyun-woo as a representative, and also invited the professional managers of the Seoul consortium to board the gate of NHN Corporation to start continuous negotiations.
In addition, NW also publicly stated that NW believes that it is difficult to seize NHN's leading position as an engine and portal website, and hopes to complete its original rhetoric of building an ecosystem around Axu through mergers and acquisitions.
Even many friends in the industry were surprised, and they called Lin Wei to test it out. Of course, Lin Wei responded unanimously: "It's true, it's all true, if you can buy it, you must buy it."
The people at NHN were overjoyed.
As the largest search engine and portal website nowadays, NHN's income is actually relatively limited. Apart from the game part trying to get a share of the online game segment, the main source of income is still advertising fees.
Although it is said that he earned a lot, it is indeed not a lot.
Now that Shunyang is throwing coins, Lin Wei, who has the capital behind him, waved the banknotes and vowed to complete the last piece of the puzzle of his Internet empire. This is undoubtedly great news for NHN.
While the stock price rose in response, the valuation of the company also changed. Even the important directors who originally acquiesced in the proposal of financing and mergers and acquisitions began to hesitate, thinking whether there is still greater potential to be tapped in their own industry?
Undoubtedly, it is normal for such a level of M&A financing to be delayed for several months, especially when Shunyang and NW are targeting NHN at the same time, it is likely to attract more investors' interest .
Invisibly, it became more difficult for Shunyang to acquire NHN.
This is exactly what Lin Wei wanted to do.
He had no interest in acquiring NHN, and launching his own browser, home page, and search engine was a must for the company.
The value of things like the homepage is inflated, and the final purchase price of hao123 on the other side of the ocean is only a few million yuan. Although the search engine is very valuable, but based on the current user base of NW, as long as they are willing to spend money, they may not be able to share it. a cup of soup.
As long as it completes its own ecological closed loop, NW with a large number of users will have a high probability of changing users' usage habits. As long as it uses future foresight to improve user experience and guide the development team to continuously optimize customer service, users will naturally choose the better one. .
In fact, Lin Wei's idea now is very clear - he just wants Shun Yang to spend a lot of money to buy NHN first, and then launch his own software to compete with the opponent.
He who comes from the future knows that social software is far more important than other things. Whether it is a webpage or a search engine, these are all replaceable, but if it is to replace the commonly used chat software, then it can It's much more troublesome.
The 3Q war back then was an earth-shattering one, but the results also proved that in the face of huge social software, replaceable service-type software will not be its opponent.
Lin Wei is very confident that if he plays a match between Axu and naver in South Korea, he will not lose.
On the car heading to Shi Dongchu's mansion, Lin Wei took the documents, checked them one by one, and asked thoughtfully.
"Shunyang's current core industry has suffered setbacks year after year, so it's impossible to just rely on its laurels, right?
Especially after paying a huge fine. What about the materials of the Qianya Consortium? "
After Lin Wei finished speaking, Yin Xuanyou quickly opened the briefcase and took out a file bag.
Lin Wei took it apart to take a look, hummed, and pondered, "Tell me, what do they rely on to maintain their profits?"
"First of all, although the automobile industry was defeated by Future Automobile in 03, the 01 Shunyang Automobile is still the favorite of many consumers. The car still occupies 03% of the low-end domestic market today, which is only 22% lower than the 28% share of Future Group.”
Yin Xuanyou didn't need a document at all, and just blurted out: "At the same time, in the food field, Shunyang Ramen also achieved a large amount of sales in 02 because of a hit advertisement and film and television sponsorship.
Shunyang Steel”
Lin Wei listened patiently, and after looking through the documents in his hand one by one, thoughtfully, he chuckled and said, "It's a big chaebol after all, three collapsed and two rise again."
"However, as far as the current situation is concerned, with the 03 new models and the quality control problems of Shunyang Iron and Steel that broke out, the sales of vehicles should actually decline to a certain extent. The purpose is to seize the market for similar types of vehicles.
Analysts within the company and I agree that Shunyang Auto's sales should suffer a sharp decline this year, and total sales at the end of the year should drop by more than 40% compared to last year.
Considering the steel factory's quality control problems caused by the decline in reputation and product recalls, the final revenue of Shunyang Iron and Steel in 03 should also decline compared to last year.
Based on the asset size and last year's financial report, we estimate the total amount Shunyang will spend on mergers and acquisitions this year. Their current liquidity, even taking into account possible loans approved by banks, will not exceed 4500 billion. "
"Tsk tsk, 500 billion."
Lin Wei sighed.
Now, with his lavish spending, investment, and maintenance of operations, even though many companies under him have begun a positive cycle of profitability, the funds that can be used for mergers and acquisitions at hand are probably only a little over 1000 billion at most.
This is based on the fact that funds for the Busan Haeundae project have been obtained.
Even if the dividends at the end of the year and the money that Jinmen can use are added, the funds that Lin Wei can use are probably only 2000 billion yuan, but not all of the 2000 billion yuan can be spent.
Taking into account the personnel expenses, publicity expenses, takeaway platform construction, Android-based mobile phone system development, server rental fees, etc. of the online shopping platform next year
At least 1000 billion must continue to be invested in expanding operations to make Lin Wei's business stable. What's even more terrible is that next year there will be no chance of making a fortune like the Haeundae Project, which is a rare opportunity in several years. The company will Profit, it can be seen that the amount of investment that can be controlled will be even less.
The core of NW Company is NW Venture Capital. In addition to his own company, Lin Wei also actively acquires small and medium-sized game companies to fill vacancies, and invests in stocks and real estate to ensure the balance of asset ratios.
"It would be great if I could eat Shunyang Automobile if I had the chance."
Lin Wei said suddenly.
At the moment of time, the automobile industry is still the most profitable. With the foundation of the automobile industry, he even wants to take Musk's job and develop a Tesla brand or something.
Yin Xuanyou showed a helpless smile: "President Lin, Shunyang Automobile is the core enterprise of Shunyang, and I want to get it. Unless Shunyang Group falls apart"
"Why not?" Lin Wei raised his eyebrows, thoughtfully, he vaguely found the key to Shun Yang.
"Shunyang's family is harmonious, isn't it? As far as I know, the former president of Shunyang gave birth to three sons, and each of these three sons received a lot of inheritance, although Chen Xingjun's father took the most , but isn’t it mainly in the core industry?”
As Lin Wei said, Yin Xuanyou instantly understood what he meant, and also pondered: "You mean, like Future Group"
The Future Group used to be a well-known giant, but after the former chairman stepped down, the future group was torn into multiple parts in the struggle for power and profit by the heirs. Subsidiaries have been separated to operate independently.
If it weren't for Wu Yanxiu, the current chairman of the Future Group, who has extraordinary abilities and equally astonishing business methods, allowing the Future Group to make a comeback with its core industry, the Future Group may not be the top chaebol by now.
Even so, the future group also lost the possibility of aspiring to the top, and became the last position of the chaebol group, which is better than Shunyang, but it is also limited.
Yin Xuanyou said softly: "It's still a bit difficult. After all, Shunyang has reached the third generation anyway, and the conflicts that should have been resolved long ago, and the business conditions of other subsidiaries are just like that. It's uncertain if we separate. It’s even worse, now I want them to separate their families.”
"Then let Shun Yang suffer even more."
Lin Wei saw it clearly.
He sat up, his eyes piercing: "Now Shunyang Group has received the help of the Qianya Consortium, and it is the moment when Chen Xingjun is about to take office. NHN is the key to their next step. They are trying to find a way out with the money in hand. If If you find the right one, you will naturally continue to be brilliant, and the problem will be covered up, but what if you fail?"
Lin Wei looked into Yin Xuanyou's eyes in the rearview mirror, and said softly, "If——I mean, if, after Chen Xingjun took office, Shunyang Group not only did not improve, but instead encountered a lot of problems in the new investment field, The investment money was wasted, and I have to burn a lot of money to seize the market with me
What do you think people from Shunyang would think? "
Lin Wei didn't wait for Yin Xuanyou's reply, and then gave his own answer: "There are only a few people like me who are sure about the future existence of the Internet, especially old people like Shunyang - the president is a fool, the board of directors A group of old antiques, and everyone in the family has their own plans.
Once the investment is too large, there will be no return on income, but the situation will continue to burn money, there will naturally be voices against Chen Xingjun within Shun Yang.
When NHN is defeated by us, he can only go back to Shunyang's physical business in despair, find his field of expertise, and use the remaining money to stop losses."
Lin Wei squinted his eyes: "We need information - at least find a way to know, if Shun Yang's investment does not go well, where will the next investment direction be placed.
As long as they can make Shunyang lose the working capital in their hands, they must use their capital. Once the foundation of the company is involved-will those shareholders be satisfied?
Will the rest of his family who hold shares in the subsidiary be satisfied? "
Lin Wei speculated, pondered secretly, and finally came to a conclusion.
This is not something he can do alone.
He wanted to drive Shun Yang to the end of his life, wanted to distract Shun Yang, chose to disband and reorganize, and let Shun Yang go down completely. A lone wolf would not be able to eat alone.
Other big crocodiles had to join in, see Shunyang's flaws together, and decide to dismember this giant beast together, and each eat a lot of food.
Lin Wei stopped talking, but began to think.
The other big companies are cold-blooded animals with no profit, and it is impossible for them to fight Shun Yang together. They will only join the winner when one side is completely defeated. Knives and forks to enjoy dinner.
To get them involved, Lin Wei can't just rely on his mouth and a plan, otherwise, the plan might end up on Chen Xingjun's desk at that time—big chaebols are more willing to maintain than to meet new people. balance now.
Lin Wei understood it all too well.
Chen Xingjun's ability is limited. If he is in charge of Shunyang, Shunyang may be able to maintain his status as a chaebol by relying on his size, but want to go further?He has no such ability.
But Lin Wei is different - if the presidents of the group of chaebols were to choose an opponent, Lin Wei, a dangerous stranger who climbed up from the bottom, obviously would never be a good choice.
Seeing that Lin Wei lost his voice and fell into deep thought, Yin Xuanyou just pushed his glasses. He was thinking, hoping to relieve Lin Wei's worries, and wrote down Lin Wei's proposal, and planned to start talking with Lin Wei tomorrow. Today's think tanks think about countermeasures.
Now that Lin Wei's company is growing, in addition to management talents, it naturally also has a complete secretary team and a professional investment team. The entire NW Venture Capital Company is no longer just a show for holding shares in companies such as Axu, but a real investment company. Capable elite team.
This is also the reason why Lin Wei can get off work at five o'clock every day.
When I came back to my senses, the car was quite stable.
After Cha Taizhi got out of the car, he looked around first, then opened Lin Wei's car door. He slowly got out of the car, while Yin Xuanyou opened the trunk and took out a bottle of precious wine as a door-to-door gift. Lin Wei didn't use it at all now. After telling these things, Yin Xuanyou will take into account everything he hasn't considered, and he will just do things and come up with ideas, and Yin Xuanyou will naturally fill in the details.
Lin Wei smiled at him and nodded, took the famous wine, stepped out and rang the doorbell, Shi Dongchu's wife soon opened the door with a smile, Lin Wei stepped in, Shi Dongchu was wearing a shirt, sitting on the sofa, raised his head She glanced at him, smiled, and stood up to greet him.
"coming?"
After more than half a year of running-in, the relationship between the two has become much closer than before. Lin Wei smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Shi, I suddenly said that I want to meet, I am really disturbing."
"Hey, your aunt is still talking about whether you will come here during the Chinese New Year. Sit down, we have to wait for a while for dinner, what do you want to drink? This bottle you brought, or something else?"
Shi Dongchu smiled and stretched out his hand to signal Lin Wei to sit down.
Lin Wei handed the wine to his wife, sat on the sofa, smiled and said, "It's all fine."
"I'm most afraid that a guy like you can say anything. Then do as I like. Two days ago, someone sent a bottle of good red wine. Today we will just have a few sips."
Anyone who has been to Lin Wei's wedding banquet knows that this guy is adaptive to drinking, no matter how much you drink, he is slightly tipsy, looks like he is going to be drunk, but no matter how much he drinks next, he turns his head and goes to the bathroom, It's as if I can drink more than I want.
Even Mou Yingxiong, a well-known alcoholic in the wealthy circle, once said something at the banquet—he has been drinking for so many years, but he has never seen anyone who can drink better than Lin Wei, and he might not be able to put the two together. My own son-in-law.
As soon as these words came out, anyone who knew about Mou Yingxiong's drinking capacity would basically stop drinking with Lin Wei.
This saved Lin Wei a lot of trouble. Anyway, he didn't have any hobby of drinking. It was fun to have a few drinks with his family, but it was purely for socializing with outsiders.
Seeing that Lin Wei readily agreed, Shi Dongchu personally went to find a bottle of red wine and opened it. After sobering up, the food was served on the table.
Lin Wei was not in a hurry to get straight to the point, but smiled and chatted with him about life, family, work, and unborn children as usual.
"Have you gone to the hospital for a checkup, boy or girl? It should be possible to find out, right?"
Shi Dongchu asked curiously.
Lin Wei just said nonchalantly: "Boys and girls are the same, as long as they are my children."
Shi Dongchu's wife smiled, but her expression was a little dull and she didn't speak. Not having any children was Shi Dongchu's biggest pain. It's not that she didn't have any, but she died before she was ten years old, and she couldn't have children after that.
"Really? That's good. After all, you are a young man, and your thinking is indeed different from that of the older generation."
After Shi Dongchu finished speaking, he paused and said with a smile: "If you are born, when you can see people, don't forget to let me see it too - I thought this kid Zhong Jiu would start a family and start a career before you. As a result, we now have an entertainment company, haha, I think marriage is out of the question, and I don’t know if there are any illegitimate children.”
When Shi Dongchu talked about Li Zhongjiu, his tone was a bit complicated, while Lin Wei raised his brows slightly, paused the chopsticks in his hands slightly, and after a short thought, he simply spoke directly along the topic.
"President Li's current entertainment company is also very impressive. It has also started filming several movies this year, and the signed artists are also very popular."
Lin Wei put down his chopsticks, picked up the red wine glass, took a sip, and then waited for Shi Dong's teasing words with a smile to end, and saw the picture.
"that is."
He suddenly looked troubled.
Shi Dong gave a thump in his heart, and glanced at his wife, who sighed, "I'll go make a pot of tea, and drink less wine at night."
"Thank you, auntie." After Lin Wei finished speaking, Shi Dongchu waited until his wife left, then looked at Lin Wei calmly: "What did he do?"
"I can't say what I did. Chairman Shi, are you satisfied with the performance of Golden Gate Entertainment?"
Lin Wei asked first.
Shi Dongchu nodded without hesitation: "The artist you signed has already reached billions of dollars in this year's advertising fee alone, not counting salary and other sharing, free publicity and other factors.
Isn’t the Infinity Challenge you made known as a national variety show now?I also found time to watch a few episodes, which were really interesting.
I heard that your debut girl group next year has also been decided?That must be a lot of money again. "
Lin Wei nodded, but then said: "To be honest, in order to create benefits for Jinmen, whether it's the commercial shooting or the artist arrangement of the show, a lot of my wife's connections have been used.
Although Kinmen's signboard is also useful, to be honest, Kinmen Entertainment has made it to where it is today, compared to our efforts, the Seoul Daily has contributed more. "
Shi Dongchu nodded silently, just looking at Lin Wei, waiting for him to say something crucial.
Lin Wei said slowly: "Today, everyone also acquiesces in the relationship between the Golden Gate Group and me, that is to say, I believe that the Golden Gate Group will go smoothly this year. In a sense, my contribution should not just stop at the financial report superior."
Do you want to further become an executive director?
Or do you want more equity dividends?
Shi Dongchu couldn't make up his mind, so he could only hum and continue listening.
Lin Wei suddenly said at this moment: "Although Winner's company is Li Zhongjiuxi's personal company, Li Zhongjiuxi is the president, executive, and board member of Kinmen after all - so Winner naturally enjoys Kinmen's benefits.
If it's just that, I wouldn't bring it up here, but the key point is that if President Li knows that all of this is Seoul's influence, he is silently using this influence to benefit himself and at the same time damage the interests of Golden Gate Entertainment. "
Lin Wei played with the red wine glass and said softly, "Does this count as eating and drinking?"
This is a heavy hat.
Don't forget that although Jinmen is shiny now, there are some factors in it.
For gangsters, there are only three kinds of people who cannot be forgiven.
The informer who betrayed his brother.
A worm that harms gang interests.
A traitor who eats everything inside and outside.
The whistleblower will surely die, the moth depends on the situation, and eating inside and outside will lead to death.
Shi Dongchu's eyes widened slightly. He had not heard of any conflicts between Lin Wei and Li Zhongjiu for a whole year. In his heart, he felt somewhat relaxed and felt that the two people's feud was over. In fact, Li Zhongjiu The distance from Lin Wei was getting farther and farther, and he didn't think there was any conflict between the two of them.
He also heard about Li Zhongjiu's WINNER company, but he let it go. There was no way. From Shi Dongchu's point of view, he not only dismantled Jinmen Entertainment and handed it over to Lin Wei, but also couldn't give Li Zhongjiu any guarantee in the future.
After all, he is Shi Dong's vassal minister, and he has made countless contributions along the way. The two of them love Li Zhongjiu like a father and son. If he treats Li Zhongjiu like this, not to mention what Li Zhongjiu will think, other people under him will probably feel chilled too.
Therefore, he chose to let Li Zhongjiu carry out his personal business and turn a blind eye. Lin Wei also chose to ignore it tacitly. Ding Qing and others did not find trouble because of this. Shi Dong thought, this should be The tacit understanding between the whole company fulfilled his loyalty.
But now that Lin Wei spoke so emphatically, Shi Dongchu couldn't help feeling a little uneasy—yes, uneasy.
As Lin Wei's current status has improved by leaps and bounds, in the past year, he has successively brought to the construction company one-third of the construction index of the Haeundae development plan, and the second-phase development index of the wealthy villa area known as the Sky City. , and the Zhao Group jointly won the precious land in the city center, and will build a landmark top-level apartment
Logistics companies, entertainment companies, etc. are advancing with an astonishing momentum. Although most of the shares have been taken over by Lin Wei and the Seoul Consortium, the assets of the group have still skyrocketed because of this, and Lin Wei has also taken over the shares. It's not for nothing, the real money invested in is also invested by Lin Wei himself
Nowadays, even Ding Qing, who is also the deputy director, is faintly inferior to Lin Wei on the board of directors. move closer.
Future Group has always believed that before Lin Wei came to power within Kinmen, there were too many unstable factors. Although there were many shares held, most of them were based on dividends. Actual influence
It's not what it used to be.
Shi Dongchu squinted his eyes and looked at Lin Wei: "If you have any thoughts, you might as well tell them."
Lin Wei calmly wiped his mouth with a paper towel on the table, picked up the red wine glass, swayed the red wine in the glass, and said calmly: "First, I allow President Li to continue to develop business with the background of Jinmen, but not my background. I will let it out and tell everyone that his winner has nothing to do with me and is a clear competitor.
This is his punishment for crossing the line.
Second, the winner company can only get one grand award trophy for Jiang Donghu from the three major channels this year, and the best variety show of the year for his two days and one night. After all, his two days and one night is the ratings champion on Saturday. Other than that, Besides, please don't look forward to the awards from other stations, and don't look for relationships.
Thirdly, recently I heard that Winner's recruiting methods are not very clean, and the food is not very good-looking. After all, we are all from our own family, and everyone will inevitably treat me and him as a group. This is a bit wronged for me.
Doing business in a proper manner, I will save some face for him. If he insists on smashing the signboard and stinking me, then I will not add trouble, because I am already looking at President Shi's face. "
Lin Wei's words made Shi Dong look unhappy, but he was a scheming person after all. After just a few words, he suddenly asked: "Has someone found you?"
"Yeah." Lin Wei took a sip of red wine: "After all, I am the only one who respects Li Zhongjiu. He can offend people wherever he goes. Someone secretly asked me about my relationship with him. I'm afraid he can't bear his arrogance."
Lin Wei smiled softly: "The background of Jinmen can certainly shock most people, but the TV station. After all, I still have some connections here. If it really gets to the point where you die, it won't be a good thing for me."
Looking at Shi Dongchu, Lin Wei said seriously: "I'm just a small director of Jinmen, but I'm also the next chairman of Seoul. If there is a conflict between the two, Seoul will naturally take the lead."
After Lin Wei finished speaking, he looked at Shi Dongchu, and said softly, pointedly: "After all, although Uncle Mou already wants to abdicate and make way for the virtuous, but Chairman Shi is still growing old and strong, he is still the chairman after all. , this choice is placed in front of President Shi, I am afraid it is not difficult to make a choice, right?"
Shi Dongchu's heart trembled. He looked at Lin Wei, but Lin Wei seemed to be completely broken tonight. Not only did he not mean the slightest bit of tact, but he got even worse.
Lin Wei put down his red wine glass and watched Shi Dong take out the cigars on the table: "Uncle, I haven't smoked for a long time and you teach me how to taste cigars? I have never been good at it before."
Shi Dongchu nodded, still thinking about Lin Wei's meaning in his mind, and when he was cutting the cigar, Lin Wei said: "Actually, I have endured a lot of things for the sake of uncle, including you from Cui Check the spy files taken over there.”
As soon as he said this, Shi Dongchu was stunned. The cut cigar end in his hand fell out of the ashtray, rolled around on the table and fell to the ground.
But Lin Wei looked at Shi Dongchu, his breathing was steady, and his voice was relaxed and calm: "It seems that uncle knows what I'm talking about. For such a long time, even if Li Zhongjiu slapped me face to face, I never revealed his secret to the public. .
But now, under the influence of the foreign environment, uncle, I can no longer just be a small director. "
He looked at Shi Dongchu, and said word by word: "You must first have the status of a king. Only then can you have the power of a king. As long as I am still a director of Jinmen, I will not be able to become the chairman of Seoul. force."
"Uncle Mou has decided to retire after my wife has a baby. Uncle, I have to make a choice, and you should too."
Lin Wei took the cigar from Shi Dong, took out the lighter on his desk, and lit it slowly.
Shi Dong didn't say a word, he just lit one himself, and Lin Wei sipped the cigar slowly, feeling the long-lost feeling of nicotine swirling in his mouth. After a long time, I suddenly take a sip, and I can also feel the joy of nicotine flowing gradually.
He took a sip of the red wine, but the red wine was not enough to match the strong cigar. He turned his head to look, and asked softly, "Can I have a glass of whiskey?"
"Give me a glass of ice too." Shi Dongchu said, watching Lin Wei stand up to get the wine. After a long while, he put down the wine glass, then he took a sip of the strong wine, swallowing with the cold wine and hot Sense, clear your mind.
"If I said, I'm not planning to retire yet, what would you do? Get rid of me with that driver outside the door?"
Shi Dongchu looked at Lin Wei.
Lin Wei shook his head, and said cleanly: "For Kinmen, I will do my best, except for Kinmen entertainment and logistics, I will bid to take it away, and I will not take Kinmen construction and existing work plans.
For today's Kinmen, although one arm has been cut off, on the other hand, without me, the Kinmen building as the trunk would not be so strong this year.
It won’t take much effort to bring Li Zhongjiu Xi’s Winner Entertainment Company back to rebuild Jinmen Entertainment, and then cooperate with Jinmen Construction to reconfigure a set of logistics facilities, or I can also provide logistics services at a friendly price.”
Lin Wei looked at the cigar, put it on the ashtray, let it burn slowly, picked up the whiskey glass, and drank with ice cubes.
While chewing the ice cubes with a calm expression, he said softly: "When you come out to hang out, you must show loyalty. Brother Ding Qing treats me with loyalty, and President Shi treats me well. At this step, seven points are destiny, and one point depends on hard work.
Of the rest, half is in Kinmen and half is in Seoul.
I don't want to ruin the brotherhood for temporary gain.
In fact, if President Shi doesn't want to retire, it's not bad - although Brother Ding Qing is not young, he is definitely willing to wait until you retire. "
Lin Wei showed a faint smile, and let out a long sigh of relief, to settle his mind.
He looked at Shi Dongchu and said softly: "You know, I had been looking forward to the day when I became the president of Kinmen. I thought that would be the most glorious moment in my life, but now I look back, I've got wider roads and more choices
I am very clear that Kinmen is your painstaking effort and your lifelong ambition. It is true to make such a request. As a junior, time is fate, so please don’t blame me, uncle.
Coming today, I don’t necessarily want an answer just for today—it’s just that I don’t want it to end in fratricide. "
After Lin Wei finished speaking, he calmly stopped talking and let the cigar smoke linger. He just took a sip from time to time, paired it with whiskey, and waited patiently.
It wasn't until Shi Dongchu's wife almost boiled a pot of tea dry that Shi Dongchu issued the order to evict the guests with some difficulty.
"Sorry, Lin Wei, I can't give you an answer today."
"I can understand."
Lin Wei got up with a smile, looked at Shi Dongchu, and bowed at a rare [-] degrees: "I will never forget your appreciation for me, but things are just like this, time is not waiting for me."
"Yes." Shi Dongchu reached out and patted him on the back with a complicated expression. He sighed, forced a smile, and sent him away. He stood by the window and watched Lin Wei's car gradually go away.
He closed his eyes for a long time and finally took out his cell phone.
Called Li Zhongjiu.
