Chapter 287: What Did You Do?

The next day, Zhou Liwen and his entourage went to Korea University to visit the co-founded practical room and listen to the progress report of the research project.

Although Koreans have always been not very good in the impression of Chinese, when it comes to South Korea, the first thing that flashes in most Chinese minds is the concepts of kimchi, barbecue, arrogance, and rigidity. I have to say that Zhou Liwen had a very good feeling when he came into contact with Professor Kim Jizhi and Professor Cui Zhenglong, as well as other researchers and assistants in the real room of Korea University, including the intern students.

Koreans may be a bit rigid in their personality, which is also called a tendon in Chinese. But it can also be said that they are conscientious and responsible, and they have an excellent spirit of study. As for arrogance, Zhou Liwen didn't feel anything among these researchers, but they often showed a kind of pride when they talked about technology. This is also a very normal thing, just like when foreigners come to visit China, domestic researchers will also have a sense of pride and pride when they introduce the equipment and new technologies they have developed to foreign guests, which is only out of democracy and the self-confidence of scientific research workers, and there is no equivalent to arrogance at all.

Of course, this is to remove which episode of the Samsung people at the airport. If there was no such thing, Zhou Liwen should have made a very good start when he first arrived in Seoul. But because of this incident, the negotiations between Zhou Liwen and Samsung were cast a shadow from the beginning, and in the gap between the visit and exchange of Korea University, Professor Jin Jizhi told Zhou Liwen very seriously not to contact Samsung directly, unless Samsung took the initiative to apologize for the previous faux pas.

For this construction, Zhou Liwen did not refuse. To tell the truth, Samsung's attitude made Zhou Liwen also unhappy, as a partner, and a guest invited by Samsung, the other party used this way to give himself a horse, if Zhou Liwen is so bent, then the next negotiation results can be imagined.

Zhou Liwen came to South Korea to discuss business, not to see the other party's prestige. Samsung's approach is not only rude, but also an attitude of lack of sincerity and refusal to cooperate.

What's more, Professor Kim is not only an intermediary, but also a Korean. Koreans, of course, know how to deal with Koreans better than foreigners. Since he promised to give Zhou Liwen an explanation, then Zhou Liwen will quietly wait for the final reply, anyway, the exchange at Korea University will take at least a few days, and there is still plenty of time left for Zhou Liwen, if Samsung does not show real sincerity by then, then Zhou Liwen can also think that this kind of cooperation is no longer necessary.

In this way, Zhou Liwen basically stayed at Korea University for three consecutive days to communicate, and the technical aspects were naturally complicated by Liao Yuancheng and the personnel of the research institute, while Zhou Liwen mainly discussed long-term cooperation with Professor Kim Jizhi and some administrators of Korea University. Korea University, one of Korea's largest private universities, is also very experienced in this area because it is funded by donations and corporations.

While Zhou Liwen was at Korea University, a young man was leisurely playing with a newly sold golf club in an office building not far from the southern district of Seoul.

Dressed in dark suit pants, white shirt sleeves rolled up to his forearms, the lower half of his tie tucked into his shirt, and his coat resting on a chair on the side, the young man stood in a very standard posture in the center of the office, facing the outside of the glass curtain wall, holding the club with both hands and waving it.

"Chief Auditor, this set of clubs is not bad, right? Authentic American products are not available in China. ”

"Of course, but in my opinion, only Childe's ball skills can be worthy of such a first-class club, and this year's group competition has Childe out of the horse, and our department will definitely win the championship!" A middle-aged man in a suit stood aside and patted the young man's ass with a smile and a thumbs up exaggeratedly.

"Hehe, that's for sure!" The young man said proudly: "When I was a Ph.D. student at Harvard in the United States, I was the number one master in the business school, plus this set of clubs, Mr. Cui, you just wait to get the trophy for our department when the time comes." ”

"Hahaha, this is not the blessing of the son! If you don't have a child, how can you do it with us three-legged cats. The middle-aged man is Choi Zhicheng, the chief operating officer of Samsung Electronics' operation department, and as an important department of Samsung Electronics, Choi Zhicheng, the chief operating officer, is second only to the president and vice president. And the young man in front of him is several levels lower than him in terms of position, just the company's executive assistant, but he has an identity that is unusually worthy of Cui Zhicheng to put down the identity of his predecessors and superiors and spare no effort to pat himself on the back, the answer is very simple, because this young man is the eldest son of Chairman Lee Kun-hee, that is, Lee Jae-yong, the prince of Samsung Group.

Samsung Group is the largest enterprise in South Korea, but also the largest private enterprise, since the founder Lee Byung-chul, Samsung is the industry of the Lee family, to Lee Jae-yong is already the third generation, if nothing else, maybe a few years later, Lee Jae-yong will become the new head of Samsung Group, such an identity figure, as the company's senior cadres of Choi Zhi-sung how can not be attentive?

Seeing Li Zairong put down the club in his hand and put it in the rod bucket on the side, Cui Zhicheng hurriedly stepped forward and handed over the towel that had been prepared a long time ago.

Wiping the sweat that did not contain zĂ i, Lee Jae-yong sat down on the sand casually, and then patted the vacant seat next to him and motioned for Cui Zhicheng to sit too.

Cui Zhicheng was so happy that he sat down next to Shabi respectfully, and continued to pat Lee Jae-yong's ass in his mouth, what kind of wise and martial arts, the world's first and other unnutritious words jumped out one after another, but what he said made Lee Jae-yong himself a little embarrassed.

"Okay, okay, let's not say these words, if Operator Cui is interested in playing golf, we can communicate more in the future."

"Really?! This...... This is so thankful! Cui Zhicheng's lips trembled slightly with excitement, as if tears were about to fall, and then he hurriedly expressed the highest gratitude and reverence in his heart to Lee Jae-yong for his generosity and care.

The two chatted a few words on the topic of playing, and after a while, Cui Zhicheng took the initiative to report to Lee Jae-yong about the current work of the operation department, and at the end of the report, he also mentioned the negotiation arrangements for ORZ Company.

"Childe, the other party hasn't contacted us yet, what do you think about this ......?"

"Haven't you been in touch yet? Didn't the people I asked you send to contact them at the airport? Lee Jae-yong asked casually.

"I have already been contacted, and according to your instructions, I conveyed our Samsung greetings and left contact information."

"Oh, that's fine." Li Zaiyong took a sip of mineral water and said with a smile: "Since they are here and have been in contact, they will naturally contact us, so there is no need to rush." By the way, what has the other party been doing these days? ”

Choi Zhicheng replied respectfully: "I have been communicating with Korea University for the past few days, and it is said that they and Korea University have cooperated in electronics two years ago, and they have also established a joint practice room. The main tasks of the Orz side in Korea this time are two, one is to negotiate with our Samsung, and the other is their cooperation project with Korea University. ”

"Korea University? Hehe. Lee Jae-yong was very unimpressed, and in his eyes, the best university in South Korea was, of course, the Seoul National University from which he graduated, which later became Er University. Although Korea University and Seoul University, plus Yonsei University, these three best universities in Korea are collectively known as Korean universities by Koreans. But the competition among these three universities has always been stubborn, and Korea University graduates look down on Seoul National University graduates, and vice versa. What's more, Lee Jae-yong graduated from Seoul National University, and his father, Lee Kun-hee, who is now the chairman of Samsung Group, is also an honorary doctor of Seoul National University, so he is even less interested in Korea University.

"Childe, I think we should send another high-level cadre to contact the ORZ side again? After all, the other party came to discuss the project with us this time, and there are also personnel from the American Skopa, if you don't contact us, isn't it a bit rude? Choi Ji-sung certainly understood why Lee Jae-yong had that disdainful look on his face when he heard the name of Korea University, but as the chief operating officer, he still felt that Lee Jae-yong's treatment of customers was a bit excessive, so he tactfully proposed his proposal.

"Humph!" Unexpectedly, Li Zaiyong immediately snorted coldly: "No need! I have already inquired, and this time they came to ask for us, and since they are asking for people, we must have the consciousness of asking for people. Chief Inspector Cui, there is one thing you may not know, do you know why we encountered obstacles in the approval of color screen mobile phones in China at the beginning of this year? ”

"Is it ......?"

"That's right!" Lee Jae-yong looked very unhappy and said: "According to the news confirmed by the Chinese side, it is this ORZ company that is secretly playing tricks, and they are trying their best to occupy the market for their smartphones, and they actually use such despicable means to stop us." And from the mobile phone aspect, we and they are competitors, since they are competitors, both sides are your mortal enemies, treat the enemy, do you need any courtesy? Being able to allow them to negotiate with us is already the biggest concession we have made, and it is not our fault if the negotiations fail for this reason alone. ”

"That is what I said, but ...... the president?" Cui Zhicheng hesitated.

"I'll explain it over there, you don't have to worry about it." Lee Jae-yong replied in a big tone.

"That's good...... But I think it's ....... Although Cui Zhicheng got the promise of the prince, he was still a little uneasy in his heart, and just when he wanted to continue to persuade Li Zaiyong, the phone on the table suddenly rang.

Lee Jae-yong got up and picked up the phone: "I'm Lee Jae-yong!" ”

"I'm Lee Kun-hee!" A deep voice came from the phone.

"Father...... Aren't you on vacation? You......? Lee Jae-yong was stunned, and was about to ask Lee Kun-hee why he suddenly called him while on vacation, and when something happened, Lee Kun-hee's very angry voice sounded on the phone: "You bastard!" I've only been gone for a few days, what the hell have you done! ”

(On the last day of September, I wish you all a happy National Day!) All kinds of requests! All kinds of begging!)
