Chapter 631 Incheon International Airport
Five days later, Masayoshi Kishimoto and his entourage prepared to leave Seoul, South Korea, on an incoming private plane from Incheon International Airport and return to Tokyo, Japan.
Reporters from large and small South Korean media who received the news had been waiting for a long time at Incheon International Airport. They can't afford to miss this newsworthy story.
Masayoshi Kishimoto and others were divided into two ways, one was Mirai Yamada, who was the secretary of the hard gold group, to face the Korean media and make a necessary explanation.
As for the other way, it was Masayoshi Kishimoto himself who got on his private plane first through a special secret channel for VIP.
Yamada Mirai was immediately surrounded by South Korean media reporters. They all extended the microphone in their hands to her.
"I'm a reporter for KBS TV in South Korea. The chairman of the hard gold group went to South Korea in person this time with a clear purpose. It is said that it did not come with good intentions. A female reporter said with a full sense of neutrality.
"I don't know where you supposedly heard the gossip. Our chairman's personal visit to Korea this time is a normal business visit.
When our president goes to Chinese mainland for business investigations, he is always well received by the Chinese. They want us to invest more.
Teach them advanced management experience and technology, solve more problems in their domestic employment, increase local tax revenue, and so on.
Whether it is from the officials of Chinese mainland or the people of Chinese mainland, they have expressed a welcome and open attitude towards us.
When we arrived in Korea, we felt a completely different situation. Like organized and premeditated protests against our hard gold group and the chairman himself, there must be all kinds of manipulation by the people behind the scenes.
As for the purpose, it is nothing more than to prevent a new round of investment from our hard gold group, thus putting a lot of pressure on them. South Korea is a free-market economic country.
Anyone or company can legally come here to make relevant investments, and our hard gold group also has such qualifications. "Yamada Mirai is serious.
"When the chairman of the hard gold group was in Seoul, South Korea, he also personally and secretly visited the chairman of the Samsung group, Lee Kun-hee, but what happened?" asked the female reporter of KBS TV in a hurry.
"We grew up in Seoul, South Korea, and according to the rules of business etiquette, there was nothing wrong with meeting the country's business leaders.
As the head of the Samsung Group, Chairman Lee Kun-hee studied in Japan in his early years and graduated from Waseda University with a bachelor's degree in economics.
South Korea's Samsung Group also has a lot of investment and industry in Japan. There was just a frank and friendly normal business exchange between the two sides. Yamada Mirai did not shy away and replied seriously.
"The relationship between Lee Yoon-shin, the youngest daughter of Lee Kun-hee, chairman of Samsung Group, and Masayoshi Kishimoto, chairman of the hard gold group, is extraordinary. They were seen kissing intimately.
President Kishimoto went to Korea in person this time to propose marriage. Chairman Lee Kun-hee also intends to marry his youngest daughter to him. A male reporter from a gossip weekly said loudly.
Yamada Mirai immediately retorted with displeasure: "It's completely nonsense. Last year, on October 10, 2001, our president officially married his fiancée, a childhood sweetheart, who had been in love for many years in Kochi Prefecture, Shikoku. ”
"I'm a reporter for MBC (Korea Culture Broadcasting Co., Ltd.). Excuse me, what is Chairman Kishimoto's view on the form of economic development in South Korea?" asked a fat male reporter.
"Personally, South Korea's economic development is gaining momentum. Seoul feels as bustling as Tokyo. The women on the streets of Seoul are also dressed in fashion, no less than the clothes of the women in Tokyo, Japan.
It is also very convenient to eat, wear, live and travel here. Although I have only been in Seoul for a short time, I have a very good impression. ”
Yamada Mirai deliberately avoided the necessary avoidance and answered with his own personal experience. Regarding the future economic situation and development of South Korea, the chairman is bearish.
She knows very well that in the face of the Korean media, she is still one of the big media, and she can't tell the truth. Boasting about their economic achievements will not cost them anything.
"So, are you going to increase your investment in South Korea, especially in Seoul?" said the male reporter of MBC.
This involves the company's trade secrets, and it is inconvenient to give a positive answer. "Yamada knows that when he understands that he should express his attitude and position, he must be clear.
When this should not be an attitude and a standpoint, it is not possible to say things to death. As the head of the secretary's office, she naturally has a set of replies that should be given to the outside world.
"I'm a reporter for SBS (Seoul Broadcasting Corporation). I also have two questions for you: Half of the Korean game development industry is in the hands of hard gold groups.
For this reason, many Koreans are quite dissatisfied. What do you think? Does Hard Finance Group plan to reduce its stake in the game industry in the coming period?" said a tall female reporter.
Yamada Miku smiled and said, "I'm talking about business." Although our hard gold group has shares in some game development companies in Korea, it is a series of venture capital investments made in Korea around 1997 and 1998. From the current point of view, it has proved that we will be unique and far-sighted.
If you go back a few years ago, in 1997 and 1998, how many people were willing to invest real money in this industry?
If you Koreans thought it was feasible at the time, why didn't any local Korean venture capital firm take the initiative to get involved?
Nowadays, some people see that our hard gold group has gained a lot, and they are greedy, and even do not hesitate to distort the facts to attack our hard gold group.
As for whether our hard gold group will increase or reduce its holdings in the shares of companies in the Korean game industry in the future, it also involves trade secrets. For that, I have nothing to say. ”
She paused here, deliberately raised her right wrist to look at her watch, and then added, "It's almost time." We also need to fly back to Tokyo, Japan. ”
With the help of other male colleagues and security guards around him, Yamada turned around and walked forward.
The reporters who followed her did not stop there, but followed closely. Someone was still asking her all sorts of questions.
Yamada will not answer at this time. All she wanted was to get on the plane to meet with Kishimoto and make a report on her work.
