Chapter 377: Open up the Peninsula Market, the United States Plans to List Dragon Country as a Developed Country!
"Chairman, the head of Hanxing Group...Oh no, Li Zhenzhen, CEO of Longxing Group, said that he has an appointment with you, and he is here to confirm with you."
At the headquarters building of LG Group, the front desk girl of the service hall is holding the internal telephone receiver to ask the boss Ju Benmao for confirmation.
In front of her, Li Zhenzhen, who is dressed in a business suit and neat and tidy, is waiting.
Perhaps it is the exclusive style of the peninsula. Whether it is Hanxing Group, LG Group, Lotte Group, or SK Hynix headquarters building, their building exteriors are made of pieces of low-emissivity coated glass, which looks very modern and particularly depressing.
Unlike the headquarters base of Longguo Enterprise, the interior is basically surrounded by greenery, and the building design is more atmospheric and beautiful.
Of course, this may also be related to the small land area.
After all, the land area of the peninsula is only 103,290 square kilometers, which is not as large as Guangdong Province. If it is also surrounded by greenery like the Longguo Enterprise Base, the land is estimated to be insufficient.
Listening to the story of the front desk girl, Ju Benmao frowned in the top floor office, and his old face had dozens of wrinkles. The female secretary sitting on his lap also noticed something was wrong and stood up to tidy up her messy clothes silently.
"What does Li Zhenzhen want to ask me for?"
"Want me to help her?"
Ju Benmao thought quickly in his mind.
Now Li Zhenzhen represents Longxing Group, and Longguo Group is backed by Longguo. Even if they know that she is helping outsiders to make money from the people of the peninsula, no chaebol dares to touch her.
Not daring to touch her does not mean not daring to play tricks with Longxing Group.
It is reasonable for companies to play commercial competition, right?
Li Jae-yong has already communicated with the top ten chaebol families in the peninsula. During this period, they must be unanimously exclusive and not let Longxing Group succeed. Otherwise, it will break the monopoly of the chaebol and cause immeasurable losses to their status.
The reason why the chaebol can become the local emperor of the peninsula and even override the country is because of the industrial monopoly.
You want to touch a chaebol?
The other chaebols will immediately form a group.
If the chaebols all run away together, or do not provide jobs, the domestic economy of the peninsula will collapse immediately.
The most critical point is that at least half of the politicians on the peninsula are trained by the chaebols, or even members of the chaebol families. The interest chain has long been deeply rooted, and it is impossible to uproot it.
This is also why the peninsula dares to shoot movies, because the chaebols have become a heart tumor, a foreign body that cannot be eradicated, so let the film and television industry shoot and let the public satirize them. They only care about their health and enjoy themselves in time.
Other countries are not like this. If the director dares to shoot randomly and satirize society or a certain phenomenon, the preliminary review will not pass.
This time, Li Zhenzhen, or Longxing Group, has to face the chaebols' group. Even if LG Group joins hands with it, the effect will be minimal.
"Give her the phone." Ju Benmao thought about it and decided to refuse it in person.
Don't judge by appearance, judge by appearance. Although Li Zhenzhen is still a member of the chaebol Li family in name, other chaebols know better than anyone that she no longer has the power of the chaebol and her status in the peninsula is also plummeting.
But even though she is not a chaebol, there is still Chen Xing standing behind her, who is the most popular entrepreneur in the world today. He doesn't want to offend Chen Xing, nor does he want to offend Longxing Group, let alone Longguo behind him.
You should know that LG Group also has a large number of business orders in Longguo.
East Asian countries, such as the peninsula, the northern peninsula, the neon island country, and Outer Mongolia, have deep foreign trade cooperation relations with Longguo. If they lose this superpower market of 1.3 billion people, their company's performance will plummet.
"Ms. Li Zhenzhen, I am Ju Benmao." Ju Benmao kept a polite tone.
"Can we go up and talk?"
Li Zhenzhen got straight to the point.
"This..." Ju Benmao hesitated. He knew why Li Zhenzhen came, and he also wanted to give Chen Xing a face, but Longxing Group was touching the interests of the chaebols. No matter how much he talked, he could not stand on the side of Longxing Group.
LG Group does not have such great ability to dare to confront other chaebols.
Moreover, if Longxing Group enters the Peninsula market, it will not only impact Hanxing Group, but also LG Group, because both companies have their main mobile phone business.
In the Peninsula mobile phone market, Apple mobile phones, Hanxing mobile phones, and LG mobile phones are in a three-legged situation. If Longxing mobile phones come, won't it be a division of their own market cake?
As if sensing that the other party did not want to see him, Li Zhenzhen also threw out chips and said: "Methacrylate and acrylate synthesis formulas, you don't want them to be made public, right?"
Ju Benmao: "..."
Threat!
Naked threat!
Although facing the threat, Ju Benmao had to consider it carefully, because 35% of LG Group's revenue was from methacrylate and acrylate businesses.
The profits of the entire chip industry chain are very huge, and one link after another.
For example, LG Group controls the resin materials for synthetic photoresists, methacrylate and acrylate.
Without the underlying supply of LG Group, Japanese companies producing photoresists will fall into an embarrassing situation where there are no resin materials available.
If Japanese companies cannot produce photoresists, then the world's five largest chip foundries will not be able to manufacture chips, and the circuit diagrams designed by chip design companies will become waste paper, and the EDA software business will also see a sharp drop in orders.
It is precisely because of the interconnectedness that the chip business is particularly difficult to break through.
Now Longxing Group wants to publish the synthesis formula of methacrylate and acrylate. Isn't this going to kill LG Group?
"Please... please come up."
Ju Benmao sighed secretly.
If it was just Li Zhenzhen, he might bet that this woman would not disclose the synthesis formula, because he knew that Li Zhenzhen valued her own interests and would not do it to hurt both sides.
But Chen Xing was different.
This man was too extreme!
He watched the replay of the mourning meeting no less than ten times. He never thought that Chen Xing would disclose so many black technologies of Longxing Group and use them to challenge the hegemony of the US dollar.
The most important thing is that he also found out that in mid-2014, when the price of mobile phones in the Longguo market was generally 3,000 yuan, Chen Xing reduced the price of smartphones to 1,599 yuan.
What is this called?
Burn the boats!
Survive after death!
If you use normal prices to impact the market, facing an unknown small company, users will definitely prefer Kunpeng, Rice, and Blue and Green Factory mobile phones with brand power at the same price.
This is like buying shoes. Under the condition of the same quality, the same appearance, and different brand logos, would you choose Nike at 799 yuan or Huili at 799 yuan?
Obviously.
Nike is definitely better.
Therefore, if you want to break through the siege, you must fight to the death.
It is this kind of courage that makes Ju Benmao feel that if he refuses Li Zhenzhen's request for negotiation, the man behind her may really announce the synthesis formula of methacrylate and acrylate.
…
After getting permission, the girl at the front desk also took Li Zhenzhen to the top floor of the LG office building by elevator.
After walking about a hundred meters, they came to Ju Benmao's office.
"Dong Dong——"
Simply knock on the door to remind, the girl at the front desk also helped to open the door.
Li Zhenzhen walked into the office, and before she could say hello, Ju Benmao, who was sitting in the negotiation area, stood up and said: "This is Mr. Li, welcome to LG Group."
"President Ju, long time no see."
Li Zhenzhen said enough polite words.
The girl at the front desk didn't stay too long and quickly closed the office door.
Although she was alone at the meeting, Li Zhenzhen still had a strong aura. This was not something that could be pretended, but a natural aura from the inside out, which she had been exposed to since childhood and had gone through a lot of experience.
"Sit down."
Ju Benmao was in a complicated mood.
Because Longxing Mobile Phone impacted the mobile device business and seriously damaged the interests of LG Group, when Li Jae-yong came to him, he immediately raised his hands to agree to sanction Longxing Group.
Now that Li Zhenzhen came to the door and brought a bargaining chip that he couldn't refuse, Ju Benmao felt that his brain was overloaded.
"Thank you."
Li Zhenzhen sat down.
She didn't waste words. After sitting down, she went straight to the point and said, "Chairman Ju is a smart man. Nearly half of LG Group's income comes from methacrylate and acrylate."
"If this negotiation doesn't go well, Longxing Group may withdraw from the Peninsula market and lose about 10 billion Longguo currency, but LG Group is not as simple as losing money. Perhaps the development momentum will turn downward. I hope Chairman Ju can make a careful decision."
At the negotiation table, whoever can take the lead can control the rhythm.
Li Zhenzhen has also been in business for many years. Naturally, she understands the importance of negotiation dominance, so she throws chips as soon as she comes up.
In negotiations with chaebols or world consortiums, showing weakness is useless. People will not think you are modest and gentlemanly, but will only eat you up.
"So what do you want me to do?"
Ju Benmao was unable to argue.
How can he deal with it?
They came prepared and put the knife on his aorta. How can he negotiate?
If he said no and the negotiations failed, once the synthesis formula of methacrylate and acrylate was announced, the core business of LG Group would definitely be hit.
The one who would hit LG Group would definitely be his current "allies", that is, other chaebol families.
"Open the AUCTION online shopping platform to us, and use your connections to promote our mobile phones in the media."
As soon as Li Zhenzhen finished speaking, Ju Benmao nodded slightly and agreed directly: "No problem, I can accept all of these."
Compared with the methacrylate and acrylate business, he would rather give up the LG mobile phone business, which is a sacrifice to save the driver.
As for Hanxing Group and Lee Jae-yong, he can only say that he hopes for the best.
"And."
"And?"
Seeing that Li Zhenzhen still had conditions, Ju Benmao was not calm. Was he going to push it too far?
If it was an ordinary citizen, he would definitely let his men throw him into the Han River to swim. This was simply too much.
But he couldn't afford to offend Li Zhenzhen, or Chen Xing. Even if others pushed him too far, he still suppressed his anger and said, "What else?"
"Haven't you always wanted LG phones to surpass Han Xing phones and become the largest brand in the peninsula? Now the opportunity has come."
"What opportunity???"
Li Zhenzhen's words were shocking, and Ju Benmao performed a Sichuan opera face-changing.
He was still frowning in the last second, and in the next second his face was filled with joy, and he hurriedly asked, like a wolf seeing meat.
"Our president said that it was Chen Xing, you should have heard of his name." Li Zhenzhen continued slowly: "He instructed me that you can't eat alone. We are willing to provide you with 5G baseband chips so that LG Group can also produce 5G mobile phones."
"Really?!!"
Ju Benmao was completely upset.
I thought it would be a complete failure and a negotiation of ceding profits, but I didn't expect there would be a reversal. Li Zhenzhen also brought a cooperation project.
Does LG Group want 5G baseband chips?
No doubt!
It definitely wants it!
Not to mention LG Group, even Apple wants it. Even Ku Ke sent several emails to meet with Chen Xing, just to think about whether the relationship between the two companies can be eased.
No matter which field, if you have a big fist, you are the truth.
Like Iraq in the past, the United States has a big fist. If you say you have weapons of mass destruction, you have weapons of mass destruction. It represents the truth and sanctions this oil-producing country.
But the question comes back again. If Iraq really has weapons of mass destruction, will the United States dare to act rashly?
Just like Saudi Arabia, they bought missiles from Longguo under the attention of the whole world, and it is even rumored that a few mushroom eggs were given as gifts. In this case, even if the Middle East is in chaos, he can still sit firmly in the position of Big Brother, and even the United States dare not act rashly, because this is a country that really has weapons of mass destruction.
"There is no benefit in lying to you and me."
Li Zhenzhen responded lightly.
She actually understood why Chen Xing did this, because the Peninsula chaebol is too iron barrel. If you want to completely integrate into this market, you must integrate into the chaebol.
Now relying on threatening LG Group, it has barely opened a gap. This relationship cannot last too long, and a cooperative relationship must be established.
The underlying operating logic of society is actually a cooperative relationship.
The two sides cooperate and take what they need. This is the norm. A relationship that only asks for something, even if it is family affection, will not last long.
There is no filial son in front of a long-term sick bed, which is about "purely asking for a relationship", which is also the darkness of human nature and a shadow that cannot be eradicated.
Of course, the most important point of cooperating with LG Group and supplying 5G baseband chips is that the two companies can attack Hanxing Group and completely shake this behemoth.
"How many chips will be supplied in the first phase?"
Ju Benmao has already started to calculate.
When there is an "external enemy", the chaebol can be an iron bucket, but is Longxing Group an external enemy now? LG Group does not think so, it is their important partner.
"One week is one phase, and 5G baseband chips are supplied four times a month, with a supply of 200,000 chips in each phase, but we have a condition."
"You say."
Ju Benmao suppressed his excitement.
On the premise of making money, he chose to die for his friends rather than for me.
"Increase the supply of methacrylate and acrylate to Longguo enterprises."
After the voice fell, Li Zhenzhen added: "This is not only to help us, but also to help yourself."
"Understand."
Ju Benmao nodded repeatedly.
To be honest, as long as Longxing Group does not burn its boats and publish the synthesis formula of methacrylate and acrylate, he can accept any harsh conditions, not to mention that there is money to be made now.
In fact, he also understands that the reason why Chen Xing made such a decision is that he still wants to use his relationship on the peninsula to fight against Hanxing Group.
As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake, and the latter often bites people most fatally.
Will Ju Benmao refuse?
He won't.
He has wanted to eat Hanxing Group for too long.
The competition between LG and Hanxing mobile phones has lasted for more than ten years, and Hanxing mobile phones have always won.
In the current mobile phone market in the peninsula, Hanxing mobile phones account for 60%, Apple mobile phones account for 30%, and the remaining 10% is LG mobile phones.
A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier, and a chaebol who doesn't want to go further is not a good chaebol. After Li Zhenzhen proposed cooperation, Ju Benmao didn't want to refuse at all, and even planned how to promote Longxing Mobile Phones so that the people of the peninsula would accept this brand.
"Then sign the contract, which can just clarify our responsibilities and obligations. I hope this cooperation can be pleasant."
Li Zhenzhen said calmly.
"That's natural."
Ju Benmao continued to nod and lower his posture.
Since both parties had their own needs, and LG Group really couldn't let Longxing Group publish the synthesis formula of methacrylate and acrylate, the contract was signed very smoothly. Ju Benmao even wrote advertising into the obligation clause.
…
With the signing of the contract, Longxing Group and LG Group, the fourth chaebol of the Peninsula, reached a cooperation, and the Longxing mobile phone promotional posters that had been prepared early were also logged on to the AUCTION online shopping platform.
You should know that this is the first online shopping platform in the Peninsula, and 60% of the netizens in the Peninsula use it to buy items.
Not only that, Ju Benmao also used his relationship with the TV station to urgently schedule the Longxing mobile phone and inserted nearly three minutes of advertising during the most prime time.
However, the matter is far from over. LG Group also holds a controlling stake in a logistics company, and its express cartons are all advertised with Longxing mobile phone advertisements. Overnight, Longxing mobile phones have become a household brand among the people of the Peninsula.
The power of the chaebols and the channels they have are not owned by foreign groups.
In the Korean Star Group headquarters building, Lee Jae-yong was completely furious and was destroying his office with his own hands.
"LG Group!"
"Marimoto Shigeru!"
"You actually teamed up with outsiders to mess with me!!!"
"boom--"
Lee Jae-yong held a golf club and threw it directly at the tens of thousands of dollars display screen, and the Spider King appeared.
Before he could relieve his anger, he came to the negotiation area again, and directly hit the tempered glass table, hitting a white spot.
After several consecutive shots, the tempered glass tabletop could not withstand the damage, and the entire glass tabletop was shattered.
At this time, in the president's office, the display screen in the office area and even the desk had been overturned, and the chairs were in pieces. Looking around, there was no place that was not destroyed.
Such a big movement also attracted the secretary in the next office.
She knocked on the doorframe and asked, "How can I help you? President."
"Come in."
Lee Jae-yong suppressed his voice.
Everyone has darkness in their hearts, and usually this darkness is hidden deep in their hearts.
But if it breaks out, it will annihilate humanity.
Unable to prevent the Longxing Group from entering the peninsula market, Lee Jae-yong endured it for several years, and the shadow of being ruled by Lee Zhenzhen erupted instantly.
When the secretary came to Li Zaiyong with a surprised look and some anxiety, the latter directly strangled her neck and said in a deep voice: "I am very angry now!"
"ah!"
The secretary screamed.
Li Zaiyong had already flipped her onto her back, and then pressed her down on the broken table with only the skeleton left. The knees where she was kneeling unconsciously were dug into the flesh by the broken glass, making the secretary scream in agony. But this aroused Li Zaiyong's animal nature, and his eyes flashed with cruelty.
"Li Zhenzhen, you forced me to do it. If you want to destroy Han Xing Group, then I will destroy you first."
…
And on the other side.
The United States across the ocean.
In Washington's Capitol Hill, hundreds of representatives from various states have entered Voting Hall 1.
The voting hall has a staircase layout, similar to a concert stand.
Each representative has a voting machine, green represents agreement, red represents opposition, and yellow represents abstention.
At the central podium of the voting hall, Renato Marotta was holding the manuscript and read out the content: "After five meetings and discussions with hundreds of congressmen, we decided to officially launch the Asian Subdivision Act. Vote, this vote will directly determine whether the bill can be implemented. If you understand clearly, please press the agree button."
The words fell.
143 votes were all green.
Having heard everything clearly, Renato Marotta continued: "In the past few decades, the Asian community has soared from 700,000 to more than 5 million today. Faced with such a huge group, We have reason to suspect that this is a new type of colonial method.”
"In order to better manage and understand their assets in the United States, we decided to implement a separate subdivision management act."
"Pah, pah, pah—"
The moment the words fell, warm applause erupted in the voting hall.
In the United States, the large Asian community has affected the interests of certain groups, such as the interests of Jewish conglomerates.
The business acumen and scientific research capabilities of the people of the Dragon Kingdom are no worse than those of the Jews, and now there is a vague tendency to replace them.
The Jewish people know how they took root in the United States, and they don't want their domestic status to be threatened, especially now that the Dragon Kingdom's national power is rising exponentially. If they are manipulated from the inside out, it will be a big deal.
When the applause subsided slightly, Renato Marotta didn't waste any time and continued: "Everyone has read the content of the bill several times and discussed it. I don't need to say anything more. Let's start voting on the bill tonight. "
"If you agree, please press the green button."
"If you object, please press the red button."
"If you choose to abstain, please press the yellow button."
As Renato Marotta's voice fell again, the voting tally appeared on the LED screen above the voting hall.
Number of yes votes: 143.
Number of negative votes: 0.
Number of abstention votes: 0.
Faced with this result, Renato Marotta was not surprised at all, because none of the congressmen here are from the Asian community.
The most critical thing is that this "Asian Segmentation Act" targets Asians, and its purpose is to subsequently plunder their wealth and subsidize it to the Jewish consortium and the Angsa consortium. Therefore, their only option is to agree to this option.
"Unanimous vote."
Renato Marotta had the final say.
However, the voting meeting was far from over. After passing the first bill, he opened the manuscript in front of him and said:
"We will plan to submit an application to the WTO to designate Dragon Country as a developed country and cancel welfare benefits and technical assistance support for developing countries."
"Wow——"
The moment the words fell, all the members present were amazed and looked at each other.
Designate Dragon Country as a developed country and cancel relevant welfare and technical support?
If they remember correctly, the average national income data disclosed by Longguo last quarter showed that the average monthly salary in Magic City was only 5,210 yuan, which is equivalent to less than 1,000 US dollars. The average income in other regions was even less than 3,100 yuan, which is completely below the level of developed countries. threshold standards.
To classify someone as a developed country is really a big deal!
