Chapter 449: Billion Checks
(.) After listening quietly to Lee Jae-chrome's statement, Lee Kun-hee frowned slightly as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he mentioned a few details, and Lee Jae-chrome replied without concealing it. Then, Lee Kun-hee asked Lee Jae-chrome about the information about the agreement, these Lee Jae-chrome had already been prepared, and when he took the agreement documents, Lee Kun-hee couldn't help but glare at him again, blaming this kid for not taking this thing out in advance, since he had already brought it, then Lee Jae-chrome must have guessed this scene and deliberately played tricks.
Lee Jae-chrome, who was seen through his thoughts, lowered his head and stood aside without saying a word. Lee Kun-hee picked up the reading glasses at hand and put them on, then looked through the agreement materials in his hand, trying to find something in them. However, in the end, he confirmed that there was no problem with this thing in terms of professionalism, reasonableness, and even legal aspects.
Indeed, no matter how stupid Lee Jae-chrome is, he is not an idiot, Samsung Group has a complete legal department and a strong team of lawyers, and all agreements and contracts must be reviewed by professional lawyers in the legal department to ensure that there will be no legal loopholes. Although Lee Jae-chrome made his own claim without telling Lee Kun-hee, he still did the necessary procedures. What's more, the other side of the agreement is the famous Lehman Brothers, and there will be no problem from this point of view.
Lee Kun-hee's purpose in reviewing this thing is to confirm the doubts in his heart, and he is worried that Lee Jae-chrome's matter will not be as simple as it seems, and maybe someone has set a trap. But after reading it all, his doubts were completely dispelled, and at the same time, he also felt that he was too suspicious. If someone can grasp it, or know that Lehman Brothers suddenly went bankrupt, then there would be no one else on the other side but God. The bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers was so sudden that even some of Lehman Brothers' top brass were unaware of it. As a well-known billionaire, Lee Kun-hee can be sure of this.
Since it is not a trap, it can only be said to be a coincidence. Or rather, it's Lee Jae-chrome's luck problem. Lee Jae-chrome's attempt to acquire a stake in Corning through Lehman Brothers is not a solution to the problem. It's a pity that their luck was really bad and they actually ran into the sudden collapse of Lehman Brothers.
The $300 million, Lee Kun-hee knew that he couldn't get it back for the time being. Don't look at this amount of money, but Lehman Brothers' debt is as high as 61.3 billion US dollars, which is less than a fraction of this huge amount. Now, the U.S. government, including the Treasury Department, is trying to restructure Lehman Brothers to ensure that the collapse will not have a greater impact. However, even if it is ultimately successful, according to the normal procedure, the liquidation between liabilities and business transactions will not be completed in a short time.
What about the final completion of liquidation? Lee Kun-hee was not naïve enough to think that he could get the money back. When the time comes, it will be thankful to be able to get back a tenth. The final result of this huge amount of money is destined to be disposed of as bad debts within the Samsung Group.
With a long sigh, Lee Kun-hee reluctantly accepted the situation he was facing. However, he severely reprimanded his son for his unauthorized actions, and deprived him of the privilege of managing the company as an heir when necessary. In other words, as a punishment for Lee Jae-chrome, judging from his position, such a punishment is not afraid or severe, but judging from this incident, Lee Kun-hee still defended Lee Jae-chrom in this way.
"I understand father, this matter is causing you trouble...... Lee Jae-chrome said respectfully, bowing deeply to his father.
"Go back and reflect on it, and think more about things in the future," Lee Kun-hee told him heavily.
Lee nodded silently, and then prepared to leave. But just as he walked to the door, Li Jianxi shouted to him again.
"Father......?"
"You go write a check for a billion, and I'll go to Sheng Bin's house for me." Lee Kun-hee said.
"Why is that?" Lee Jae-chrome was a little puzzled. In his opinion, Li Shengbin has already completed his mission as a scapegoat, so why bother? Besides, one billion won is a lot of money, and it will cost nearly $80,000 when converted into dollars. Li Shengbin has now been kicked out of the Samsung Group, and he has no use value, isn't this money a waste for him?
Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, Li Jianxi saw through Li Zaichrome's thoughts at a glance, and he glared at him with hatred: "In this matter, our father and son owe Sheng Bin, not to mention that from the company's point of view, we must also give him an explanation, otherwise who will give us the Li family's life?" Do you think that if I kick Sheng Bin out of the group, you will be completely out of the system? Are the people of the group blind? What's more, now that the lawsuit between your uncle's family and us is still going on, if Sheng Bin is dissatisfied and takes refuge in them, do you know what the result will be? ”
A cold sweat suddenly broke out behind Lee Jae-chrome's back, or Li Jianxi was thoughtful, Li Shengbin had to be appeased no matter what, and only by calming him down so that he couldn't talk nonsense outside, could this matter be turned into a big thing and a small matter. Thinking of this, Lee Jae-chrome nodded in agreement again and again, and hurriedly left to prepare.
That night, Lee Jae-chrome came to visit Lee Sung-bin in person with a check, and when he saw that it was Lee Jae-chrom coming, the anger on Lee Sung-bin's face suddenly flashed, and he seemed to have the idea of refusing customers, but finally opened the door and let him in.
"I'm so sorry to have you suffer for me." After entering the house, Lee Jae-chrome put on an apologetic attitude and bowed to the other party to apologize.
"No, I'm just a janitor's dog, isn't it natural to be scapegoated for my master?" Li Shengbin looked at the prince of Samsung Group with a dark face, and said very unceremoniously. From his words, you can hear a deep resentment, you must know that he is also surnamed Li Ah and Li Zaichrome is still his brother, he can't write two Li characters in one stroke, he has worked in the Samsung Group for more than 20 years, and there is no credit and hard work, right? But because of the prince's trouble, he became a scapegoat and was kicked out of the company in a humiliating way.
Lee Jae-chrome's expression was suddenly a little embarrassed, and he forced a smile, but suddenly felt that such a smile was inappropriate for the occasion.
"Sheng Bin, in fact, my father regretted this decision very much, your departure from the company is temporary, and when this matter fades down in a few days, I promise that my father will continue to invite you back. By the way, my father asked me to bring it to you, so please take it. You have worked hard in the company over the years, take advantage of this time to take a vacation, or go abroad for a walk, take a walk, and when you come back, the company will still be of great use to you. ”
After speaking, Lee Jae-chrome handed over an envelope with both hands, but Lee Sung-bin just glanced at it and did not reach out to take it. Feeling a little embarrassed, Lee Jae-chrome had no choice but to put the envelope on the table next to him, and then bowed to Li Shengbin again and turned to leave.
Through the window, watching Li Zaichrome's car go away, Li Shengbin had a sneer on the corner of his mouth. At this moment, there was a sudden noise behind him, and a man came out of the inner room, came to the table with a smile, picked up the envelope left by Lee Jae-chrome, opened it, and took out a check from inside.
"Hehe, the old thing of a billion checks is really willing"
