Chapter 720 Matters of Principle are not negotiable
Korea.
The water of the Han River flows eastward and winds through the entire Seoul area.
In the northernmost district of Seoul, Dobong District, surrounded by beautiful mountains and rivers, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, a huge courtyard with traditional Korean architectural style, rockeries, pavilions, small lakes, and corridors interspersed.
Luo Tonghua, Su Chunfeng, and Zhou Han got out of the Mercedes-Benz car that picked them up, and under the respectful guidance of a middle-aged man in the posture of a housekeeper, they walked into this courtyard.
Deep in the courtyard, in a spacious reception room, it is as warm as spring.
An old man in white casual home clothes sat cross-legged on a low floor in the center, sipping tea leisurely.
Below the low collapse, two middle-aged men and a young man stood respectfully in the distance.
The old man is Park Yinzhen, a well-known master in the Korean magic world, and his personal cultivation is said to have entered the realm of the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, which is unfathomable.
Under the guidance of the housekeeper, Luo Tonghua walked into the room first, followed by Su Chunfeng, and Zhou Han at the back.
Park Yinzhen didn't get up, but showed a humble and polite look, and invited Luo Tonghua, Su Chunfeng, and Zhou Han to sit down, and the young man standing next to him, who looked to be in his early thirties, in a suit and leather shoes, could speak fluent Chinese, and was very serious about translating for Park Yinzhen.
It's just that on the left and right sides of the low collapse, there are clearly only two people sitting.
Zhou Han showed a rather helpless wry smile, and stretched out his hand to signal Su Chunfeng that he didn't have to be humble to him, just sit down, and glanced at the man in a dark gray suit among the two middle-aged men standing next to him. Su Chunfeng also understood that since it was a negotiation, there was naturally a business opponent present, and the man in the dark gray suit must be Park En, the chairman of South Korea's Hongqi Engineering Construction Co., Ltd. Therefore, Su Chunfeng did not make concessions, and sat cross-legged with Luo Tonghua face to face on both sides of the low tea table.
Su Chunfeng glanced at Pu Yinzhen a few times, intentionally or unintentionally, and couldn't help but feel a little disdain in his heart - it's not that he thinks very highly of himself, it's just because of his personality, he doesn't like warlocks who boast about their expansion, such as this Pu Yinzhen, who is said to have already entered the realm of the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, is unfathomable, it is not wrong to have the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, but he is obviously fortunate to break through to the realm of the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, it has not been more than half a year, how can it be unfathomable?
If you fight with Park Yinzhen, it does not involve magic weapons, and Su Chunfeng, who is in the late stage of Qi refining, is absolutely sure to defeat Park Yinzhen, and moreover, it is to use the Zhongtian secret technique!
If trickery is used......
How many tricks can this old man withstand?
is also a great consummation of qi refining, if he faces Luo Tonghua, Su Chunfeng will not be absolutely sure. Not only because Luo Tonghua's cultivation is too profound, but also because Su Chunfeng, who had fought with Luo Tonghua in his previous life, knows very well that this old professor, who rarely makes a move in public, has unpredictable techniques, and the momentum of his attacks is majestic, and he has the power of the mountain gate - not that Luo Tonghua's practice may be the mountain gate technique, but that this old guy has been in the official organization for many years, and he is good at studying all kinds of techniques of the metaphysical sect, and it is extremely unbelievable that he integrates the official power into his own body techniques, which are the two contradictory momentum recognized by the Qimen rivers and lakes. Luo Tonghua can do this, it is enough to imagine that he has profound knowledge in magic, his mind is intelligent, and his talent is amazing, and with this self-created technique, he can be called a generation of magic masters.
Although, in the battle in his previous life, Su Chunfeng had a draw with Luo Tonghua in the Awakening Realm with his cultivation in the middle stage of Qi refining, and forced Luo Tonghua to sacrifice his own cultivation, but that was because Su Chunfeng was angry at that time, and the demons in his heart turned angry, and Luo Tonghua had just entered the Awakening Realm, which was the time when he was most physically and mentally exhausted.
Su Chunfeng sat quietly and drank tea, casually reverie, as for negotiations......
That's Luo Tonghua's business, he came to make vases and fight with people when necessary--warlocks negotiate, the whole world - universal, that is, it is inevitable to have a discussion.
Since last year, South Korea has to carry out a new government relocation and construction plan, and in recent years, Seoul has built a lot of civil engineering, greening, image, characteristic buildings, etc., to build Seoul into one of the world's top livable cities, in fact, after a few years later, Seoul has indeed become the world's top and very attractive international super metropolis. In this large-scale engineering construction project, engineering and construction groups and companies from all over the world will naturally rush to Seoul like sharks smelling blood. It's a pity that South Korea has a very obvious local protection policy in this regard, and basically does not use foreign engineering and construction companies. However, as a resource-poor country, it is necessary to import raw materials necessary for the process of large-scale construction, such as hardware, cement, cables and other products. In this regard, China, which lives next to South Korea, not only occupies the right time and place, but also because of the low price and high quality of goods, so it quickly and successfully defeated the opponents of many countries in this huge commercial competition.
Zhou Han's Hanwei Hardware and Building Materials Co., Ltd. is the largest of the many hardware and building materials manufacturers in China who have invested in the Seoul project.
Originally, this kind of business was nothing more than a hardware and building materials company, bidding for major engineering and construction companies in Seoul, and just going through the normal process. However, Hancheng Hongqi Engineering Construction Co., Ltd., in the competition of peers, strongly suppressed Zhou Han's Hanwei Hardware and Building Materials Co., Ltd. supplied the Korean engineering construction company named Hanming, and incidentally, Hanwei Hardware and Building Materials Co., Ltd. was also suppressed, requiring Hanwei to supply hardware and building materials to Hongqi Company, and asked for a lower price than the supply of hardware and building materials to Hanming Engineering Construction Company.
This is clearly unreasonable.
Originally, Zhou Han didn't want to get involved in the competition between local enterprises in Seoul, South Korea, but he felt that this Hongqi Engineering Construction Co., Ltd. was too deceitful, and even reported to the relevant government departments by various means, saying that Hanwei's hardware and building materials were not up to standard, and Hanming Engineering Construction Co., Ltd. was cutting corners in the construction project...... This can make Han Ming Company suffer a lot, and a one-day shutdown can cause considerable damage, not to mention the investigation by the government department, which can take months. And the progress of the major engineering projects in Seoul cannot be stopped for too long, so it is possible to make everything go down the drain. If Hanming's project is lost, and Hanwei wants to get the payment back, it will naturally be far away.
Not long after the two local engineering and construction companies in Seoul began to fight with each other, Zhou Han found out that Hongqi Engineering Construction Co., Ltd. had arranged a warlock and joined the fight.
Zhou Han fought back almost without hesitation!
He pondered that there were warlocks on both sides, so presumably the other party would have to be restrained and restrained, after all, it is reasonable to travel all over the world, and it is not good for anyone to make things bigger.
Who would have thought that the other party immediately made a tougher counterattack, and arranged for someone to contact Zhou Han directly, sternly threatening, warning Zhou Han to get out of South Korea immediately, otherwise, it would kill him. As for the investment of Hanwei Hardware Building Materials Co., Ltd. in Seoul......
Is life mattering, or is money at stake?
The warlock on the side of Hongqi Engineering Construction Company let Zhou Han choose by himself.
It's unlucky!
Zhou Han felt that he had really suffered an unwarranted disaster, who did he provoke? I put in at least 10 million worth of goods, and the payment was wasted?
But if he fights hard, he doesn't have the slightest certainty of winning, and he has to put his life into it.
So in desperation, Zhou Han returned to China to ask the Liaodong Fan family for help, hoping that the Liaodong Fan family could help him, after all, everyone is from the Northeast, and with the strength of the Fan family, not to mention whether they can fight with the magic family of the local snake Park family in Seoul, at least, they can be qualified to stand up and negotiate with the Park family.
Fan Wei, the head of the Fan family, gave Zhou Han an idea to find the official responsible for controlling the Qimen Jianghu, wasn't the Qimen Jianghu led by the official to join the International Joint Conference of the Magic Community?
This kind of thing, the official has to come to the head!
So, there is today's scene.
Ask yourself, Su Chunfeng thinks that this kind of negotiation is too difficult - if Zhou Han wants to get back the money he invested, he has to let Hongqi Construction Company give up the attack on the rival Han Ming Company, but it is a competition between local enterprises, and it seems to have nothing to do with you Zhou Han, let alone Huaxia Qimen Jianghu and the official. Huaxia Qimen Jianghu and the official, why did the Park family give up attacking competitors?
What the is going ......
As expected, the negotiations between Luo Tonghua and Park Yinzhen soon reached an impasse.
Each has its own reason, and the wind and horses and cows are not related.
"Master Park, I hope to raise your noble hand and be able to come up with a compromise solution to resolve this dispute." Luo Tonghua had a very good attitude, and said tepidly: "The competition between your enterprises, it stands to reason that we are not qualified to intervene, but because it involves the interests of my Huaxia Qimen Jianghu Warlock, we can't sit idly by." From Zhou Han's mouth, I have roughly talked about some details, and I personally think that we can solve the problem in this way - Hongqi Engineering Construction Co., Ltd., to which Park belongs, can cooperate with Zhou Han's Hanwei Hardware and Building Materials Co., Ltd., and Hanwei can also moderately reduce the price of products, but Hongqi Engineering Construction Co., Ltd., together with Hanwei Hardware, put pressure on Hanming Construction Company, so that Hanwei Company will first recover all the previous payments from Hanming Company, so that Hanwei has no big loss. It's just that in the later stage, when providing hardware and building materials to Hongqi Engineering Construction Company, it suffered some losses in price, and Hongqi Company can not only successfully defeat competitors, but also get low-cost hardware and building materials supply, all happy, how? β
Su Chunfeng listened to Luo Tonghua's idea, and couldn't help but secretly praise - old fox!
After listening to the translation, Pu Yinzhen looked indifferent and said, "Master Luo's method is indeed good, but ...... The competition between Hongqi and Hanming is a matter between our Korean companies, and if we join forces with Hanwei Company, I am afraid that it will be inappropriate and will hinder the reputation of our Park family in Korea. β
Luo Tonghua frowned slightly.
Su Chunfeng thought to himself, this is clearly not going to talk about it, either the fighting method is to win or lose to solve the problem, or, feng shui takes turns, your Pu's company will not enter the territory of Huaxia in the future, otherwise it will eat you alive.
"Master Park." Luo Tonghua's face gradually became indifferent, and said: "I am representing the Qimen Jianghu of Huaxia, and I hope to negotiate with you, but don't forget, I still have an identity, that is, the representative of the official organization of Huaxia." I don't think Master Park would want this matter to involve negotiations at the official level, right? β
Hey, it's hard!
Su Chunfeng glanced at Zhou Han and found that Zhou Han was really excited.
It's a threat!
It's a tough threat!
Park Yinzhen shook his head and said, "Master Luo, even if the official intervenes, it is an economic dispute between Hanwei Company and Hanming Company, and it has nothing to do with my Park family's Hongqi Company. β
"Master Park's understanding may be a little biased." Luo Tonghua smiled slightly, and said: "I mean, once the official intervenes, Huaxia Qimen Jianghu will inevitably take action accordingly and participate in the Han Ming Company in a timely manner...... Master Park, I know that in South Korea, the government departments are not so strict in controlling warlocks, but presumably, the government departments are even more reluctant to see a large-scale conflict between the two warlocks in Seoul. β
"Master Luo, the threat of these words is too obvious." Park Yinzhen's face changed.
"I am very sincere." Luo Tonghua's expression was indifferent - the politics and diplomacy between countries are one thing, but the diplomacy of the warlock world is ......
Although Qimen Jianghu currently attaches great importance to its influence in the international arena, if such a dispute arises for the first time, it will not be possible to ensure the interests of the warlocks of the Chinese Qimen Jianghu, then the official who is responsible for controlling the Qimen Jianghu and representing the Qimen Jianghu to the stage of the international magic world will not only be inferior in the international magic community, but will also lose some of the prestige that has been accumulated in the domestic Qimen Jianghu.
There is no room for compromise!
Park Yinzhen sneered, "Master Luo, the Korean nation will never succumb to any threat. β
"In China, there is a famous saying of a great man handed down from the modern war period, if people do not offend me, I will not offend others, if people offend me, I will offend others." Luo Tonghua's tone and face became more and more indifferent, as if he had a big disagreement, and immediately got up and turned around and left.
Su Chunfeng was quite surprised, Professor Luo had taken gunpowder?
After thinking about it for a while, he understood that Luo Tonghua was indeed helpless and had to be tough-and, in essence, Luo Tonghua was not that kind of weak character, he was just ...... Good character!
Internally, it is good.
Externally, hard!
Park Yinzhen smiled, a natural smile, he clapped his hands and nodded, and said, "Okay, I'm not afraid, but I really don't want to be an enemy of the Qimen rivers and lakes in Huaxia, especially the official, which is not in the interests of the Park family." I basically agree with Master Luo's proposal, but there is one more request. β
"Please." Luo Tonghua smiled.
"In the future, ......" Park Yinzhen said seriously: "In the international magic community, Huaxia Qimen Jianghu is not allowed to say anything similar to Korean magic originated from Huaxia, and it must be admitted that Korean magic is a native Korean magic and has a long history of inheritance, how about it?" β
After listening to the translation, Su Chunfeng frowned - this condition seems to be not demanding, but in fact, it touches on a matter of principle.
Luo Tonghua thought for a moment and said, "Master Park, do you care about this very much?" β
"The Korean warlock world, they all care." Park Yinzhen's expression was serious, and it seemed that there was no doubt.
"Why?" Luo Tonghua asked.
This seems to be nonsense.
Inside, everyone was stunned and looked at Park Yinzhen.
Park Yinzhen was obviously a little stunned, what do you call why? After thinking about it, he said, "Because, this involves the dignity of the Korean warlock world, the Korean nation!" β
Luo Tonghua smiled heartily and said indifferently: "Okay, Huaxia Qimen Jianghu, I won't refute what you say, but if you let Huaxia Qimen Jianghu admit it, this won't work." I can only promise you that you can say yours while we ...... Well, I can't make the entire Qimen Jianghu not refute, but I can promise, at least as a representative of the Qimen Jianghu, on the stage of the international magic world, we will not refute. β
Park Yinzhen frowned, and after a long time, nodded.
In negotiations, both sides have to make certain concessions in order to reach a settlement, otherwise there will only be war!
And Su Chunfeng finally couldn't help but get up and come out......
He was angry!
For a long time, he never imagined that he would care so much about the principles and historical traditions of Qimen Jianghu. He felt that they were all too far away from him, they were all empty, and they had nothing to do with him. But today, when Park Yinzhen made such a request, Su Chunfeng suddenly had a strong sense of honor, which was respect and love for history, for the nation, and for the inheritance of magic, and it could not be tarnished!
He believes that what Luo Tonghua said just now is a betrayal!
But Luo Tonghua is a negotiator, Luo Tonghua has the right to decide, and he Su Chunfeng, no!
So he can only use his attitude to show his dissatisfaction.
Indoors, Luo Tonghua didn't mind watching Su Chunfeng stride out in a hurry, and then said to Park Yinzhen: "Master Park, you see, Qimen Jianghu is actually very sensitive to this...... Therefore, I hope that in the future, when dealing with the warlocks of the Huaxia Qimen Jianghu in the Korean magic world, it is best not to mention this kind of topic. β
"Then, what we just said ......," Park Yinzhen frowned.
"Count!"
"Good."
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Walking out of the living room, Su Chunfeng walked along the corridor to a small lake, took a deep breath of cold air, and slowly exhaled it, feeling a little regret for his impulse just now.
Why bother?
What does it have to do with yourself?
He shook his head.
At this moment, a young man in a suit and leather shoes, about thirty years old, walked over, stopped when he was two meters away from Su Chunfeng, and said coldly in English: "You are, Su Chunfeng of Huaxia?" β
Su Chunfeng turned his head to look at the other party, nodded and said, "Yes." β
"Are you the most powerful master of the young generation in the rivers and lakes of Huaxia Qimen?" The young man's eyes were full of unkind provocation.
"Yes." Su Chunfeng nodded again.
"I heard that in the capital of China, you rejected the challenge of my great Korean warlock Lee Young-so, but agreed to the challenge of the Japanese ninja."
"Yes."
The young man bowed slightly, and then said coldly: "My name is Park Qingjun, and I want to challenge you." β
Su Chunfeng turned his head, no longer looked at the young man named Pu Qingjun, and said lightly: "You can't do it, the gap between you and me in the early stage of qi refining is too big." β
"You ......"
"I don't know what the rules are in your Korean warlock world, but ...... in the Qimen rivers and lakes of Huaxia" Su Chunfeng said indifferently: "As long as there is a gap of two levels in the cultivation realm, then a warlock with a low cultivation level and a warlock with a high cultivation level is a great disrespect, and it is also a stupid manifestation without self-knowledge-Mr. Park Qingjun, a warlock who cultivates in the late stage of the solid qi realm, if you challenge you, will you fight?" β
Park Qingjun hesitated, gritted his teeth and said, "Yes." β
"Then I can only say ......" Su Chunfeng snorted coldly: "Your idea is ridiculous!" β
With that, he turned and walked back.
