Chapter 365: Diverting Attention?
Although Seoul is very large, Liu Kewei disappeared without saying hello, and then did not answer the phone, and if someone else wanted to contact him, he could only wait anxiously. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
However, for Che Guanglong and Duan Shanshan, the places that that guy can go can really be counted with their eyes closed.
Make sure he hasn't lost his personal freedom, and then take into account the premise of "can't answer the phone", and then the answer is almost imminent.
Either in the swimming pool or inside the gym.
The fitness center that Liu Kewei will go to, these two have also applied for membership cards. A phone call came and asked the front desk over there, and his whereabouts were confirmed.
The buddies were in the big news, and the two had no intention of staying in the company to work overtime, so they each asked Yuan Bin and Ling Xingning to explain a few words, and then left Minerva Mansion together.
Liu Kewei, who was not covered in an inch, was lying on the bench against the wall of the sauna and pretending to sleep, only a white bath towel was around his waist.
Hearing someone push the door in, he opened his eyes nonchalantly, glanced at themβand then sat up with wide eyes, the towel almost falling to the floor, but thankfully he reached out and scooped it up just in time.
"Didn't you say that the studio is working overtime, why do you two have time to come over?"
"Tut, tsk, first I went to the hero to save the beauty, and now I'm in the sauna again, and I don't even have time to answer the phone...... Lao Duan, you say, isn't this guy too good at enjoying life? Let's two brothers work hard in the office, look at how old Liu ......is living this little life."
Che Guanglong shook his head and sighed solemnly.
"No way, who made this a world of faces. β
Duan Shanshan echoed meaningfully.
The two didn't exercise in the gym. I didn't sweat, and naturally I didn't need to take a shower. It's just that they each changed into a set of sauna clothes, and they just blocked the door like a second general. looked at the blank buddy in front of him with a smile.
"What the hell, you guys came to me on purpose, there must be something going on - what else is it called 'Hero Saves Beauty'? Could it be that you are talking about the incident in Lotte World just now? You guys are really well informed!"
Liu Kewei blinked his eyes and smiled.
"Hey, we're well-informed, don't you know that you're on the headlines?"
Che Guanglong turned his head sideways, haz. A completely speechless expression.
"Huh?"
Liu Kewei was completely dumbfounded.
Che Guanglong and Duan Shanshan walked up to him and sat down on the left and right.
"You'd better see for yourself......"
Duan Shanshan took out his mobile phone from the pocket of his sauna suit and logged in to the naver mobile version. Then he shoved it into his hand.
Liu Kewei took the phone in a daze, and fell into a petrified state after only a few glances.
"This can't be, this isn't scientific......"
All he could say was these two sentences.
"I can't see the video of this meal clearly. What was the situation at that time?" Duan Shanshan asked curiously.
Liu Kewei frowned and recalled. The details are recounted intermittently.
Fortunately, it hasn't been long since it happened, just a few hours ago, and the general details can be easily remembered with a little review.
Even in the waiting room, Kim Yeonpyeong mentioned a few words in the conversation with Coupang, Lotte World and others.
"According to what Lao Liu said, this matter is indeed a bit weird! he just intervened between Sunny and that MC to help a little, and it shouldn't have attracted so much attention, right......"
Che Guanglong rubbed his chin and looked confused.
"I kind of get the ......"
Duan Shanshan on the other side rolled his eyes, as if he remembered something.
"What do you understand?" asked Liu Kewei, turning his head.
"Have you read the novel or cartoon "The Legend of the Galactic Heroes"?" Duan Shanshan asked rhetorically.
Che Guanglong and Liu Kewei shook their heads together. Neither of them is a fan of fiction or cartoons. Although this name is not unfamiliar to me after hearing it a few times, they really haven't come into contact with this work.
"In my opinion, Lao Liu is probably like Yang Wenli, who was used as a pawn to divert public attention during a public relations crisis......
Duan Shanshan pursed his lips, as if "one word has broken the heavens".
Che Guanglong and Liu Kewei didn't understand, and asked him again and again what he meant, so he had to simply give them a science popularization of the relevant story background.
In order to cover up their strategic mistakes, the Empire and the Alliance, two rival forces in the world of Yinying, the Alliance fought a great defeat in the El Fasir's star field, and in order to cover up its own strategic mistakes, they characterized a lieutenant who successfully organized and safely evacuated civilians in the battle as a "hero of El Fasir".
This lieutenant is one of the protagonists of the story, Yang Wenli, a young officer who has been continuously promoted because of his defeat.
In the subsequent Battle of Artis, the Allied forces were defeated one after another by the famous imperial general Reinhardt with twice the strength, and finally it was Yang Wenli who took over the command of the injured boss at the critical moment, which kept the last fleet from being completely wiped out by the other party.
After the war, for similar reasons, Yang Wenli was again promoted to major general because of his defeat. Later, he used him as the commander to piece together the remnants of the previous defeated army into the Thirteenth Fleet, which was only half the size of the regular fleet, which is the origin of the famous "Admiral Yang" and "Yang Fleet" in the story.
"Well, listening to your explanation, the situation is really a bit similar, is that really the case?"
Liu Kewei was still in a petrified state and did not come back to his senses, but the more Che Guanglong pondered about it, the more reliable he felt, and he couldn't help nodding frequently.
Time goes back to two hours ago, when Liu Kewei was being investigated by the Songpa Police Station.
In an office in Lotte World, a middle-aged man with an elegant face stood in front of the windowsill, elbows folded and lost in thought.
There was a knock on the office door, and someone outside the door whispered, "Your Excellency, may I come in?"
The man turned around and whispered, "Please come in." β
Strangely, even though I was in Korea, I was speaking Japanese for this question.
"Your Excellency, here are copies of their confessions, as well as video footage taken at the scene. β
A young man who looked like an assistant bowed, raised the object in his hand above his head, and just bent over and stood there motionless.
It was a clear plastic bag with a stack of paper in it, and a CD.
The middle-aged man smiled, took the plastic bag with both hands, nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work." β
Although he was facing his subordinates, the man's attitude was still very humble and kind, without the slightest domineering.
If you were an outsider, it would be hard to imagine that this man was one of the richest second generations in South Korea, Shin Dongbin, the vice president and executive director of Lotte Group.
The reason why he said "one of the best" is because in the past year, the stock price of Hyundai-Kia Group has skyrocketed, even by more than 50 percent, allowing Hyundai-Kia Group Vice Chairman Chung Eui-sun, who was previously ranked third after him and his brother Shin Dongzhu, by a narrow margin to surpass him.
Therefore, in the past, he was the richest second generation in the Republic of Korea, but now he has to "settle for the second place".
In fact, this executive director was born in 1955, and according to the Korean age algorithm, he is 57 years old this year. However, because of proper maintenance, it looks like it is still in the prime of life.
Because he was born and raised in Japan and was educated, he does not speak Korean very well, and is far less fluent than Japanese, so his subordinates are basically proficient in Japanese, and they communicate in Japanese at work.
However, his Hangul is at least much stronger than that of his eldest brother Xin Dongzhu - according to the planning and layout arranged by Lotte Group founder Xin Gehao, that is, the father of the two brothers, the eldest son is in charge of Rakuten Japan, and the younger son is in charge of Lotte Korea, so his brother Xin Dongzhu almost can't even speak a word of Hangul.
When the father and son were active in Japan, they all had their own Japanese names, namely Shigemitsu Takeo, Shigemitsu Hiroyuki and Shigemitsu Akio - as for why the surname is "Shigemitsu", it is because Singhao married a Japanese aristocratic lady as his wife, named Shigemitsu Hatsuko, a relative of former Japanese Foreign Minister Shigemitsu Aoi.
In Japanese culture, the situation of "son-in-law and adopted son" is very common - Tachibana Muneshige of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's reputation for "Zhongyong Town Nishiichi" in the Warring States Period, in fact, was originally named Takahashi Tonghu, because he married the daughter of the famous general Tachibana Michiyo and inherited the Tachibana family, so he changed his name to Tachibana Soshige......;
All in all, the Japanese place more emphasis on "family name" than "blood", which is commonplace in their eyes.
"Well, if this kind of thing happens, if it gets to Japan, my eldest brother should be happy again......"
Opening the plastic bag, taking out those copies and flipping through them a few times, Xin Dongbin shook his head and sighed deeply.
Father Xin Gehao's original intention is very good, but the scale and influence of Japanese Lotte are far inferior to that of South Korean Lotte, as the eldest son, how can Xin Dongzhu be willing to always be inferior to his younger brother?
In addition, although the two brothers are siblings of the same mother, the age difference is only one year, but because of the difference in education and personality and ideology, and the brothers have been separated from Japan and South Korea for a long time, the feelings between each other are actually very indifferent.
Singer believes in the family-style business model, and arranges "his own family" in many important positions in the Lotte Group.
Mr. Shin has been trying to discredit his brother's ability to run a business on the side of his father and other members of the family, and every time there is negative news or mismanagement of Lotte Korea, he has to make a big deal about it.
This time, the security management of Lotte World has made such a big leak, and it is simply impossible not to be used by him. (To be continued.) )
