I want to be a chaebol
Chapter 81 Special Loan of US$200 Million
Before Song Yi went to see Jin Chengguo, he first returned to the 63 Building to meet Zheng Enxuan.
Zheng Enxuan asked Song Yi, "Where did Jin Chengguo ask you to meet?"
"A Starbucks near the Blue House." Song Yi answered.
"That's right. If you meet him at the Blue House, he will be too conspicuous. By the way, how is the acquisition of Shin Cine going?" Zheng Eunxuan asked with concern.
If New Asia Entertainment can successfully acquire Shin Cine and DSP Entertainment, and Song Yi merges Hua Guo's Shinhan Advertising, New Asia Entertainment will have assets of more than 100 billion won, and it will then apply for another one to two billion US dollars. If you have a low-interest loan, there will be no problem.
This loan is also related to whether Zheng Enxuan and Song Yi can obtain actual control of Ashan Group. Zheng Enxuan is also very concerned about Song Yi's acquisition progress.
"Shen Zhe's attitude has relaxed. No matter how hard we work these two days, it won't be a problem to complete the acquisition. At most, I will adjust the purchase price upward. At this time, it doesn't matter if I pay a few billion more won. It will be completed in a few months at most. I'm back. Aren't you worried about me doing things?" Song Yi quietly put his arm around Zheng Enxuan's waist.
Zheng Enxuan didn't struggle. She and Song Yi were the only ones in the office. She sighed quietly, "I am you after all, and I feel sorry for Meng Xian if we do this."
Song Yi did not let go, "I just feel that the pressure on you is too great and you need me to help you share it. I will go to see Jin Chengguo first. If the matter is settled, I will come back and report the results to you. Today's company affairs You’re so busy, and if you occasionally stay to work overtime, Zhiyi shouldn’t suspect anything, right?”
Zheng Enxuan's face turned bright red, "Who can be as evil-minded as you?" Zheng Enxuan didn't agree to stay and work overtime.
When Song Yi arrived at the coffee shop, Jin Chengguo was already waiting for him on the second floor. A plainclothes guard stood at the entrance to the second floor. He checked Song Yi to see if he was carrying recording equipment or weapons.
Song Yi was not surprised. He had seen bigger battles before his rebirth. Jin Chengguo's pomp and circumstance could only be regarded as child's play.
Jin Chengguo didn't get up when he saw Song Yi. He recognized Song Yi at a glance and greeted him as if he were a friend. He bowed slightly and said, "President Song, please sit down."
Song Yi sat down, and Jin Chengguo chose a seat by the window. He sat down with his back to the window, and Song Yi and Jin Chengguo faced each other.
Song Yi and Jin Chengguo joked, "Chief Jin, you are sitting by the window. The glass of Starbucks is not bulletproof. If an agent stands on the roof of the opposite building and shoots, both of us will probably be dead."
There was a guard standing behind Jin Chengguo. When he heard Song Yi say this, he suddenly became nervous and glanced at the roof of the building opposite.
Jin Chengguo observed the guard's actions and snorted, "Principal Song is a member of the modern family. What reason does he have to collude with the agents from the north to assassinate me? What good will it do to him and the Ashan Group to assassinate me?"
"I have accompanied the president on a trip to the north, and I have personal friendships with some big figures in the north. Does Mr. Song want to test my attitude towards economic cooperation between North Korea and South Korea? I have to say that I am deeply impressed by Mr. Song's courage." Jin Chengguo finished. He realized that Song Yi was a difficult negotiating opponent and could not be expected to get rid of him with just three melons and two dates.
Jin Chengguo deliberately displayed a arrogant attitude, and Song Yi could only find a way to dampen his spirit. After all, it was Jin Chengguo who asked for help from Song Yi, not Song Yi who asked for help from Jin Chengguo.
"President Zhou Mengxian is under investigation by the Seoul District Prosecutor's Office. Chairman Zhou's family, including Executive Song, has never visited Chairman Zhou. Is there some unknown secret hidden in the matter?" Jin Chengguo asked Song Yi.
Jin Chengguo wanted to use Song Yi to test the modern family's attitude towards Zhou Mengxian and whether the modern family planned to give up on Zhou Mengxian and not rescue him. If this is the case, Blue House can consider a different strategy to deal with Zhou Mengxian.
"Uncle Meng Xian's family members are quite conspicuous. They went to the prosecutor's office to visit Uncle Meng Xian in the morning and were on KBS News in the afternoon. Without the permission from the Blue House, we did not dare to visit Uncle Meng Xian in private for fear of exposing the president. It will cause unnecessary trouble." Song Yi said.
Jin Chengguo's heart sank. Song Yi obviously knew the inside story of the agreement between Zhong Xiaotong and Zhou Mengxian.
At that time, Zhong Xiaotong agreed to provide a low-interest loan of US$2.5 billion to Hyundai Group to help Hyundai Asan monopolize economic cooperation between North and South Korea. In return, Hyundai Asan helped Zhong Xiaotong to promote the Peninsula Peace Summit, and Zhong Xiaotong visited Pingjing.
Later, Hyundai Group disintegrated and was divided into three. Zhou Mengxian inherited the Asan Group. According to the agreement, Zhong Xiaotong will continue to provide Asan Group with a low-interest loan of US$2 billion.
Zhong Xiaotong has now achieved North-South summit dialogue, and Zhong Xiaotong also won the Nobel Peace Prize last year. For Zhong Xiaotong, Zhou Mengxian no longer has much use value. Now in order to avoid suspicion, Zhong Xiaotong is even less likely to issue a low-interest loan of US$2 billion to the Asan Group to be criticized and impeached by the opposition party.
However, Zhou Mengxian is under investigation by the prosecutor's office. If Zhou Mengxian reveals the inside story of the Peninsula Peace Summit, Koreans will inevitably question whether Zhong Xiaotong spent money to buy a Nobel Peace Prize, which will also be a heavy blow to Zhong Xiaotong's sunshine policy diplomatic line.
Jin Chengguo laughed, "President Song is going to visit President Meng Xian. Why do you need the Blue House's instructions? It's impossible for us to stop you from visiting President Meng Xian."
Song Yi glanced at Jin Chengguo, "Really? That may be because we are overthinking it. Since Chief Jin said so, I will go to the District Prosecutor's Office to visit Uncle Meng Xian tomorrow. The prosecution does not have any substantive evidence. It is outrageous to detain Uncle Meng Xian for so long."
Jin Chengguo heard the overtone of Song Yi's words, and Zhou Mengxian was now tight-lipped and said nothing. If Zhong Xiaotong cannot meet Song Yi's request, Zhou Mengxian may have to give substantive evidence to the prosecutor after Song Yi meets Zhou Mengxian.
Jin Chengguo held back his anger. These chaebol families were really lawless. They even dared to blackmail the current president! Jin Chengguo wished he could arrest Song Yi now and lock him up for a few days, but if he did this, his secretary-general would be dead tomorrow.
Jin Chengguo told Song Yi: "The president is also very concerned about Chairman Mengxian. He strongly supports Chairman Zheng Eunxuan in taking over the Asan Group, and he also wants to maintain the traditional friendship with the Asan Group inherited from Chairman Zhou Zhengyong."
Seeing that Song Yi was almost done, it was time to negotiate terms. If Jin Chengguo was beaten again, Jin Chengguo might become angry and choose to fight Zhou Mengxian to the death. Then Song Yi's plan would be in vain.
"Uncle Mengxian is a person who values loyalty. He doesn't know how to adapt, so sometimes he needs advice from others. Uncle Mengxian's family currently only holds 8% of the Asan Group's shares, so he is promoting the Asan Group. The internal reforms have been hampered. For Uncle Meng Xian, his biggest wish at the moment is to help Chairman Enxuan obtain actual control of the Asan Group." Song Yi reminded.
Jin Chengguo understood that if Zhong Xiaotong helped Zheng Enxuan obtain actual control of the Asan Group, he would honestly bear the responsibility in the prosecutor's office and Zhong Xiaotong would not be involved. If not, it's hard to say what truth Zhou Mengxian will reveal.
"But there is nothing the president can do about the Asan Group's current situation. If the Asan Group agrees to the National Pension Service (NPS) becoming a shareholder, they will definitely side with Chairman Jung Eun-sun." Jin Chengguo came up with an idea.
The National Pension Service of Korea, referred to as NPS, is the largest investment company in South Korea. Major Korean consortiums have stakes in the National Pension Service, including Samsung Electronics, Hyundai Motor, Daewoo Heavy Industries, SK Telecom, Korea Kookmin Bank, SBS, etc.
The National Pension Service of Korea is an investment company that uses investors’ national pension funds as principal and operates in the international financial market. It is also the strongest economic card that the Korean government can play. They maintain influence on major financial groups through NPS. .
In 2000, the South Korean government decided to privatize Posco, the largest domestic steel company, and NPS became Posco's largest shareholder. Posco also became South Korea's largest state-owned enterprise.
Hearing Jin Chengguo's kind suggestion, Song Yi couldn't help but chuckle. Ashan Group introduced National Pension as a new shareholder. On the surface, the National Pension's board of directors obeyed Zheng Enxuan's orders, but behind the scenes it was unclear who they listened to.
Song Yi himself wanted to gain control of the Ashan Group, so how could he be willing to introduce the National Pension to add variables.
"Thank you, Director Kim, for your kindness. According to our Chairman Zheng's estimate, we have almost 200 million US dollars in funds to gain control of Asan Group. Now Asan Group is in trouble, Director Kim, can you see if we can Think of a way to fund it?" Song Yi asked sheepishly.
200 million US dollars! You really dare to speak! Jin Chengguo couldn't help but wanted to jump up and curse, but he calmed down quickly. Zhong Xiaotong originally promised to give Asan 2 billion US dollars. Compared with 2 billion US dollars, 200 million US dollars is not a big deal.
Jin Chengguo was a little embarrassed, "But according to the current situation of Asan Group, it is difficult for banks to provide a special loan of US$200 million."
If nothing happened to Zhou Mengxian, it would not be difficult for Zhong Xiaotong to allocate a US$200 million loan to Ashan Group. However, in the current situation, Zhong Xiaotong must avoid suspicion. He must avoid financial dealings with Zhou Mengxian and the Ashan Group.
"Of course I know what you said, Director Jin. In addition to being the executive director of Asan Group, I also have an entertainment company under my name called Xinya Entertainment. We also have a music company DPS Media under Xinya Entertainment. There is also a film company Shin Cine.”
“I very much agree with President Chung’s strategy of building a nation through culture, and I also want to contribute to South Korea’s cultural undertakings. New Asia Entertainment is preparing to produce two influential Korean dramas and a large-scale movie in the next year, which is expected to cost hundreds of billions of won. . See if Director Jin can help find a way to provide a special loan of US$200 million to Xinya Entertainment." Song Yi said very sincerely.
When Jin Chengguo heard this, it turned out that Song Yi was waiting for him here, but obviously he couldn't make the decision on such an important matter.
"I already know about Executive Song's request. Please prepare the loan application materials in the next two days. I will help forward them to the relevant banks for research. As long as the materials are OK, I personally agree in principle." Jin Chengguode Knowing Song Yi's accurate attitude, he left Starbucks first and returned to Qingwa Dae to resume his duties.
When Jin Chengguo returned to the Blue House and entered the President's Office, he reported today's meeting to the old man behind the desk.
The old man remained silent. When he heard Song Yi requesting a loan of US$200 million, his eyes flashed and he finally spoke:
"Chief Jin, according to your analysis, Zhou Mengxian should think highly of his nephew Song Yi?"
Jin Chengguo hunched his back and did not dare to stand upright. The old man in front of him had decades of political wisdom and he never dared to be disrespectful.
"Not only that, Zhou Mengxian's family should also trust him. At least Chairman Zheng Eunxuan attaches great importance to his opinions. It is said that Zhou Mengxian's three-point modern idea was Song Yi's idea." Jin Chengguo said.
The old man also had all of Song Yi's information in front of him, starting from 1994 when Song Yi went to South Korea to study, to the acquisition of DPS Entertainment by New Asia Entertainment two days ago. Song Yi's every move during his seven years in South Korea was meticulous.
"It's interesting. Zhou Mengxian inherited the Ashan Group, but he couldn't support the overall situation of the group. It was obviously Song Yi's idea for Zheng Enxuan to become the chairman of the Asan Group. Zheng Enxuan managed the Asan Group on the surface, but Song Yi controlled the Asan Group secretly. Zhou Mengxian If you trust Song Yi so much, aren't you afraid that he will turn against the guest and end up trusting someone else?" The old man tapped on the table.
The old man was silent for a long time. Jin Chengguo kept hunched over and did not answer. The old man did not need Jin Chengguo's advice. It was better for him not to speak at this time.
The old man saw Jin Chengguo's respectful look and said, "Chief Jin, since Song Yi has spoken, we must not do nothing. The Analects of Confucius said, 'Only women and villains are difficult to raise, and those who are close will not be inferior. If you stay far away, you will be resentful.”
"When Song Yi's loan materials are ready, you lead Song Yi to the bank without saying anything. If you apply for 200 million US dollars divided into two or three banks, it will not be so conspicuous. Song Yi is a smart man, He will find a way to silence Zhou Mengxian." The old man ordered.
"Okay, Mr. President." Jin Chengguo was more respectful. As a subordinate, he certainly couldn't question the old man's decision.
When Jin Chengguo left the President's Office, the old man noticed that Song Yi's information stated that New Asia Entertainment had poached Song Hye Kyo from Au Entertainment's agent, and Au Entertainment's agent had a red letter on it. The person who prepared the materials obviously knew about the kinship between the old man and Au Entertainment’s representative director Jong Hyung.
The old man remembered that his nephew Zhong Heng had complained to him about the tyranny of the chaebol family before. A descendant of a modern family dared to poach their company's top artist.
The old man looked at Song Yi's photo and murmured to himself, "Judging from the information fed back by Chief Jin, Song Yi is obviously a person who makes decisions before deciding. In ancient times, he was a palace counselor. How could he be jealous for a woman? Maybe his behavior in front of Zhongheng is just his disguise?”
Song Yi returned to 63 Building. The employees of Ashan Building had already come off work, and Li Bingkui was also preparing to leave the company.
He saw Song Yi's face beaming with joy and said, "Song Yi, what's so good about you? You're smiling so happily. Do you want to share it with me?"
Song Yi paused and said, "It's nothing. The Qingxecheon reconstruction project is starting to look promising. Asan Construction hopes to get this heavyweight project, so I'm a little happy. Is the president still in the office?"
Li Bingkui was also happy, "The president is still waiting for you in the office. She said you had something to do with her after get off work. She planned to stay and work overtime. Zhiyi has already gone home first."
When Song Yi heard this, he felt itchy and said to Li Bingkui: "Okay, I'll report the work to the president, and you can get off work first. If it's too late, I'll just drive the president home."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Manager Song." Li Bingkui left the company.
Song Yi walked into the office and locked the office door with his backhand. Zheng Enxuan was sitting behind the desk. When she saw Song Yi locking the door, her face turned red, "Aren't you talking about something? Why did you lock the door?"
Song Yi sat down and hugged Zheng Enxuan. "Because the matters I discussed with the president are confidential and it is not convenient for others to hear."
Jung Eun-sun is wearing a white shirt and pink suit skirt today. Her suit skirt is an improved version, with no lapels, but a small collar design. It matches the white shirt underneath, revealing her slender neck. The color of her nude pink high heels and nude pink suit jacket matches very well.
Zheng Enxuan asked Song Yi, "Have everyone in the company gotten off work?"
Song Yi replied: "It's time to get off work, and Uncle Bingkui was the last to leave. The door is also closed. No one can come in except people from the company. Don't worry."
Zheng Enxuan felt a little weak. This was the first time she had done such an outrageous thing, and her voice became softer, "You know how to bully me."
Song Yi and Zheng Enxuan sat face to face, their bodies close to each other. Song Yi decided to talk about business first. Zheng Enxuan finally mustered up the courage to not scare her away.
"The communication with Jin Chengguo was relatively smooth. In fact, if we ask for 200 million US dollars, Jin Chengguo can help us get it done. However, for the sake of caution, he should go back and report to Zhong Xiaotong before making a decision. I estimate that there should be good news tomorrow at the latest. ." Song Yi reported on the work.
"Zhong Xiaotong is Jin Chengguo's boss after all. How can he dare to make a decision if his boss doesn't agree? Do you think everyone is as bold as you?" Zheng Enxuan looked at Song Yi's handsome face and still felt a little embarrassed. After all, she was older than Song Yi. .
But strangely enough, although Song Yi is actually younger than her, she feels that Song Yi's mental age is very mature, and the two of them are like peers. Unknowingly, Zheng Enxuan also regarded Song Yi as her support.
"You are right, then I should speed up the progress and buy Shin Cine quickly without delaying the business. I have decided to contact Shin Zhe tonight and raise the acquisition offer to 36 billion won. If the acquisition is completed one day later, it will be 10 less. 100 million won to prevent Shen Zhe from wavering there." Song Yi made up his mind.
"It's up to you, as long as you promise me to buy no more than half of my shares in Ashan Group." Zheng Enxuan didn't care. She never interfered with the specific affairs of Song Yi's personal company.
Song Yi finished talking about the business, "Okay, we've finished talking about the business, should we talk about something private?"
Zheng Enxuan was pretending to be stupid, "What's the private matter between the two of us?"
Song Yi went straight to it and tickled Zheng Enxuan, "What do you think is a private matter between us? Is that okay? I'll let you beg for mercy later?"
Zheng Enxuan worked a long shift today and hung out with Song Yi in the office for a long time. She also experienced the long-lost happiness. For the first time, she felt the vitality and passion of young people. She also observed the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the office from another angle. The lights in the office had been turned off, otherwise someone could see Zheng Enxuan surrendering in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows.
After Zheng Enxuan returned home, Zhou Zhiyi felt strange, "Why is mom in such a good mood today? Did she eat something delicious secretly?"
Zheng Enxuan's face turned red. She didn't dare to tell her daughter what she had for dinner today. She replied seriously: "The reason why mom is so happy is because she finally has a way to move the shareholders of Ashan. From now on, mom can become the real owner of Ashan. Do you think it's worth being happy?"
When Zhou Zhiyi heard what Zheng Enxuan said, she was also happy for her mother, "No wonder my mother is so happy. It turns out that people are in high spirits when happy events happen. By the way, mom, when are we going to visit dad?"
Zheng Enxuan's expression suddenly turned pale and he comforted his daughter, "Song Yi said that he would go to the District Prosecutor's Office the day after tomorrow to visit your father. He said hello to Chief Prosecutor Li Xiangda of the District Prosecutor's Office. Your father ate well and slept well there. Well, you don’t have to worry.”
Two updates completed, see you tomorrow!
