Chapter 970 Top Auction
The caller was James Lincoln, the U.S. Secretary of State.
Li Rongju's expression also became serious.
He answered the phone and said in a very respectful tone, "Mr. Lincoln."
"Hmm." James Lincoln hummed in a pinched tone.
His attitude at this time was completely different from how he treated Qin Chuan.
When dealing with Qin Chuan, James Lincoln treated him as an evenly matched opponent.
However, when dealing with Li Rongju, the helmsman of Sanxin Group, James Lincoln fully demonstrated the majesty of a senior official of the most powerful country on Blue Star.
After all, in his eyes, Li Rongju was just a dog.
Why should we give face to a dog?
Li Rongju was already used to the other party's attitude.
"Mr. Lincoln, I called you today. Do you have any instructions?"
"Let's set off tomorrow and come to Washington!" James Lincoln said in an unquestionable tone.
"Washington? This...why is this?" Li Rongju was shocked, obviously frightened by the sudden invitation.
"We have just seized a batch of traitors' assets and are preparing to launch an internal auction."
Li Rongju rolled his eyes when he heard this.
He knew that the current U.S. debt crisis was extremely serious and that a large amount of funds was urgently needed for emergency relief.
Auctioning assets is a way to raise money.
But Li Rongju also knew the Americans’ little plans.
Who knows what the other party is selling is garbage.
This is just like when a natural disaster occurs, the emperor asks the local gentry to donate money.
Before Li Rongju could say no, James Lincoln sent him a list of assets.
"I'll only say this once. It's up to you whether you come or not. I'll say the same thing to other chaebols..."
James Lincoln finished speaking and hung up the phone.
Seeing that her eldest brother had an unhappy expression on his face, Li Fuzhen stepped forward and asked what happened to the phone call just now.
Li Rongju would naturally not hide anything from his sister.
Then he told her that James Lincoln wanted to attend the auction himself to buy assets.
At the same time, Li Rongju opened the list of assets sent by James Lincoln on his computer.
When he saw the detailed list of assets, he took a deep breath.
Li Fuzhen asked, "Oppa, what's wrong? Is the auction going to be some junk?"
Li Rongju shook his head and said, "What the Americans want to sell is not garbage, on the contrary, a lot of good stuff."
After Li Rongju finished speaking, he turned the computer screen and let his sister look at the asset details herself.
Li Fuzhen took a look and took a breath.
The assets on the list are either mines, casinos, resort hotels, or charming islands.
It can be said that they are all excellent assets.
When she saw the name of the casino, Li Fuzhen couldn't help but wonder, "Western Pacific...Sinari Guabriana Island Casino? Isn't this the property of the British royal family? Why would the Americans put it up for auction?"
Li Rongju touched his chin and thought carefully.
After a moment, he had his own analytical answer.
"Years ago, the British royal family fled to the United States and sought asylum. But they have no roots in the United States, and they are just lambs to be slaughtered. Now the US debt crisis is serious, and it is a good time to slaughter the lambs. I guess the Americans are using the safety of the royal family as a condition to let them hand over their property to save their lives."
Upon hearing this, Li Fuzhen nodded and agreed with her brother's point of view.
After all, Americans do this kind of thing all the time.
"Oppa, are we going to this auction or not?"
Li Rongju pondered for a moment and did not give an answer.
Judging from the list of assets, all the industries here are top-quality assets.
Some assets are monopoly projects even in small local countries, and can be said to be a sure win.
However, to purchase all these assets, at least 2-3 trillion US dollars will be needed.
Such a huge amount of money is scary to think about.
So, Li Rongju was thinking over and over again whether or not to participate in the auction.
Seeing her eldest brother hesitate, Li Fuzhen said, "Oppa, in addition to inviting us, did the Americans invite anyone else?"
“All other chaebols in the country have been invited.”
"In that case, Oppa, we have to go! Otherwise, these high-quality assets will be taken away by other wealthy clans. The status of Sanxin Group in South Korea will inevitably be affected. By then, it will not be one superpower and nine strong countries. They may even be on par with us."
While the two were talking, Li Rongju's home secretary suddenly knocked on the door and came in.
Li Rongju was very unhappy with the other party's behavior.
He slammed the table angrily and said, "Who let you in?"
The secretary was so scared that she immediately knelt on the ground with her head lowered, looking like an ancient palace maid seeing the emperor.
The secretary said tremblingly, "Chairman... President... News... Please read the news quickly."
Li Rongju's face changed slightly. He waved his hand and asked his secretary to turn on the TV in the room for him.
The secretary immediately switched the TV channel to the news channel.
I saw that the Korean TV station was doing an urgent special program.
On the screen, a group of people dressed as prosecutors were entering and leaving the Happy Group's office building.
They were carrying out the documents in boxes.
At the bottom of the TV screen is the title of this report.
[The Korean prosecutors applied for an investigation order for the Happy Group. The senior executives of the Happy Group were collectively suspected of bribery and were taken away for investigation]
In the picture, a group of people wearing hoods were brought out of the Happy Group building.
Li Fuzhen recognized at a glance the woman wearing a hood who was walking at the front of the crowd.
"Oppa, isn't that Jiang Tang, the president of Happy Group... Even though she's wearing a hood, I recognize her clothes and figure."
Li Rongju frowned slightly, and what he saw was the man walking behind Jiang Tang.
Although the other person was wearing a hood, Li Rongju could still tell who he was from his walking posture, figure and clothes.
The other party is Jiang Congsuan, the elder brother of Jiang Tang, the president of Happy Group and the chairman of Happy Group.
The more Li Rongju looked, the more frightened he became.
He slammed his fist on the table and shouted angrily, "Shit! Damn it... It's too damned! This is really too much!"
Li Fuzhen asked, "What's wrong with Oppa? Why are you so angry? Although the Harbin Beer Group is only a small family among the chaebols, they still have some business competition with us. Now that the top executives of the Harbin Beer Group have been taken away for investigation, we should be happy."
"Sister, you are too naive. Don't you realize the meaning behind this news?"
Li Fuzhen asked with a puzzled look, "Oppa, what's the meaning of this news?"
Li Rongju said, "Look, normally similar news would only have a 3-5 second frame. But the footage of the Harbin Beer Group executives being taken away just now lasted for several minutes. The media at the scene gave each executive a close-up. This is a demonstration to us chaebols!!!"
