1645 What I Want
Choi Jung-won's words did not make Park Yongwan fluctuate, in fact, both sides knew that this conversation was just a foreshadowing for the main meal later.
The only thing that made Park Yongwan worry was that he couldn't figure out what specific requirements he had for Choi Jung-won.
Don't think that this kind of thing is very simple, what does Cui Zhengyuan need, just ask.
In fact, if you take the initiative to ask, it means that you have no posture, and the other party will definitely ask for a price.
Although it is possible to repay the money on the spot, there is not so much leeway.
If Cui Zhengyuan said it himself, it means that he has not agreed yet, and it is easy to discuss.
The order of the front and back is different, which means that there is a big gap between the costs that need to be paid.
So while chatting with Choi Jung-won, Park Yong-wan's mind kept thinking about what Choi Jung-won would need.
Business is unlikely, and there is no convergence between C.J Group and Doosan Group. Even if the two sides want to cooperate commercially, there is no opportunity.
As for whether Choi Jung-won wants to ask for any compensation after he becomes the president of the Chamber of Commerce, Park Yongwan is not very optimistic.
Because as far as he knows, Cui Zhengyuan himself has done a good job in all aspects, and whoever is the president of the Chamber of Commerce can not give him a lot of help.
On the other hand, if Doosan Group wants to further expand its operations in the Chinese market in the future, it will have to rely on Choi Jeong-won's many places.
After thinking about the composition of the Cui family, Park Rongwan had some ideas.
Among the people of the Cui family, except for Cui Zhengyuan, Pan Jingzhen, and Cui Jihao, who are involved in business, the others are all working hard in politics.
Choi Ki-chan is the personnel mastermind of the New GJ Party and holds great power. Choi Ki-ho's wife is a diplomat with outstanding achievements, and promotion is just around the corner.
In addition, Choi Jeong-won's grandfather, Ban Ki-w, is also the Secretary-General of the United Nations.
Even Choi Jung-won himself is outside of the executive director of C.J Group. He also served as a member of Parliament.
Speaking of which, the attributes of the Cui family's family are far greater than the quality of the business family. In particular, the political scene in South Korea has not been calm recently, and various forces are vying for each other, and the trouble is very happy.
"Does he want the Doosan Group to unequivocally support Park?"
This thought just swirled in Park Yongwan's mind for a moment, and quickly dissipated.
Choi Jung-won is an ally of Park Geun-h, and he still knows this. But to say that Choi Jung-won will pull the irrelevant Doosan Group into the chariot for the sake of Park Geun-h, it would be nonsense.
First of all, Park Geun-h's strength is strong enough, and even without the help of the Doosan Group, the chances of winning the presidential race are quite large.
Second. Choi Jung-won and Park Geun-hh are just allies, and they have not yet become one. Cui Zhengyuan has no need and obligation to find helpers for his allies at all, and he will not do anything that is not beneficial to himself.
Maybe one day Choi and Park have contrary interests, and the two sides will part ways.
Thinking about it, Park Yongwan didn't grasp the context of Cui Zhengyuan's thoughts.
Seeing that this road is about to end, Cui Zhengyuan has been out for too long. If we delay any longer, I guess we won't be able to talk about anything today.
Time is not waiting, and loss will not come again. Park Yong-wan is worthy of being an entrepreneur who can lead the Doosan Group, and it has reached a critical moment. It is still very decisive to give up the benefits.
"I don't know what the virtuous nephew thinks about the next president of the Chamber of Commerce?" Since he couldn't go around in circles, Park Yongwan decided to go straight in.
Now, he has clearly sued Cui Zhengyuan. He has an idea for the next president of the Korean Chamber of Commerce.
As for whether Cui Zhengyuan supports him, he will see what he will say next.
When the dinner arrived, Cui Zhengyuan's expression was stern, and he finally said his opinion. "I think the position of president of the Korean Chamber of Commerce. It is a very important position. At present, the international economy has undergone serious changes, and it is incumbent upon the chairman to clarify the direction of Korean companies in this change. If in the future, who can grasp this direction. So who am I rooting for. ”
The meaning of these words is obvious, and it is impossible for Park Rongwan not to hear it.
What has happened to the international economy, that is, it is slowly transitioning from the West to the East. If there are no great changes in the future, such as a world war, then China will definitely become the leader of the international economy in the future.
Choi Jung-won is saying that whoever can lead South Korea's economic policy to adapt to this change will be the right person.
To put it bluntly, it is to ask the future chairman to reverse the original trend of South Korea towards the United States and turn it towards the center.
Although the current chairman Son Kyung-sik is also a more middle-oriented representative, he is not on good terms with the C.J Group, and Choi Jung-won naturally does not want him to continue to be a good one.
Now the question is in front of Park Yongwan, can he do it?
Under the gaze of Choi Jung-won, Park Yong-wan fell silent.
Running for president of the Chamber of Commerce, like running for president, requires a platform, that is, a promise. What will I do if I am elected in the future, and what benefits will I bring to everyone?
Although many promises are impossible to fulfill, more or less must be done.
The request made by a person like Choi Jung-won, once Park Yongwan agreed and sat in the position of chairman, then it must be completed.
Otherwise, he will have to face endless political turmoil, and there will be no peace.
According to Park Yongwan's vision, the election platform he drew up was only to improve the social status of businessmen and the operation of enterprises, and he did not want to make too many changes.
Cui Zhengyuan's requirements are different, which is equivalent to a deflection at the overall level. If you don't get it right, it's not as simple as failure.
The retaliation of the Americans will certainly not be too far away.
To be honest, living in a country like South Korea, there is really no good way to deal with the retaliation of the Americans.
The consequences of Yan zhòng made Park Rongwan hesitate.
The most important thing is that even if he does not agree to Choi Jung-won's request, at most he will only lose one supporter, and there is still great hope for him to be elected president of the Korean Chamber of Commerce next year.
The pay is not proportional to the return, and the director has the idea of wanting to stop talking.
Just when he was about to give up on winning Choi Jung-won's support, Choi Jung-won suddenly released a bigger bomb. "For next year's president of the Chamber of Commerce, not only me, but also Samsung's Brother Jaerong, Hyundai's Zheng Mengjiu and Zheng Mengz, SK's Uncle Cui, LG's Old Man Gu, and Lotte's Uncle Xin all have some ideas."
These words finally made Park Rongwan face it squarely. Know you have no choice.
Otherwise, when so many important business leaders stand on the same line as Choi Jung-won, it will decide anyone's election.
As long as he has an idea about that position, he must comply with the conditions put forward by Choi Jung-won. In other words, whoever wants to be elected next time must also abide by this condition.
However, Park Yongwan felt that Cui Zhengyuan was still thinking a little too simply, and maybe he didn't understand the sinister things behind. "Virtuous nephew, your idea is good, but how difficult the world is, it may not be so smooth."
He felt like he was enough of it. It's all reminded of this step.
Didn't Cui Zhengyuan discuss it with his family? The people of the Cui family are so stupid that they can't see the influence of the Americans?
But Cui Zhengyuan's next words completely proved that the person who didn't understand was just him. The people of the Cui family not only understand, but also have greater ambitions.
Choi Jung-won looked at the sky in the distance and said leisurely, "The Republic of Korea is an independent country, and at the same time, it is also a country with many disasters. There have been countless times in history when we have not been able to decide our own destiny, so our ancestors have always lived in dire straits. Our neighbor China has a history as well. But people have courage and ambition. I am not willing to endure the status quo, so I have to take charge of my own destiny at what a great sacrifice. The Republic of Korea has reached a crossroads, and no one knows its future fate? But I believe. One of those paths must be that we can determine our own destiny. I heard that Uncle Park's wife is the sister of Hanwha Group Chairman Kim Seung-yeon? It seems that it should be the same breath and the fate is decided together. ”
Park Yongwan stood in place, looking at Cui Zhengyuan, who was radiating dazzling light beside him, in astonishment, only to realize that he seemed to be beginning to decay.
What does Hanwha Group do? That's a company that produces military products. In particular, the manufacture of gunpowder and ammunition is an important product channel for the South Korean military.
It is also because of this that Hanwha Chairman Kim Seung-yeon is in the South Korean military. It has a lot of influence.
It can be said that he is not a soldier, but he is better than a soldier. In many cases, his decisions were able to have a significant impact on the military's decision-making.
The same principle is also suitable for Samsung's Lee Jae-yong and Hyundai Heavy Industries' Jung Mengz. Because these two enterprises are not only in the private sector, but also bear the responsibility for the production of military products.
And Samsung and Hyundai have long been in the Cui family's car.
The purpose of Choi Jung-won's agreement to talk to him today is not as simple as the so-called condition, but to use him as a bridge and tie Hanwha Group to the car.
In this way, with the Choi family as the center, including the Choi family's own influence in the military, Park Geun-h's support in the military, and the influence of the three major enterprises on the military, will have great control over the entire South Korean military.
And what is his purpose in doing this?
Thinking of Choi Jung-won's pro-China style, there is only one goal, and that is the control of the US military and military stationed in South Korea.
In other words, at this time, Choi Zhengyuan had already had the idea of driving the US military out of South Korea and taking back the absolute control of the army.
I have to say that Cui Zhengyuan's idea is that any aspiring citizen will have an idea. As long as there is a sense of self-esteem and a sense of honor and disgrace, no one likes to entrust the defense of their country to outsiders.
In that case, it is equivalent to being held in the hands of others, and being squeezed by others as much as possible, and there is no room for resistance.
Earlier, Choi Jung-won said that South Korea is an independent country, and there was no irony in it. Which independent country will have troops stationed in other countries?
But the reality is cruel, his idea of driving away the American army and taking back the control of the army is good, but does he not consider the dangerous neighbor to the north?
Without the protection of the United States, can South Korea really stop the madness of its northern neighbors?
Thinking of the tragic situation in the future, Park Yongwan's face changed drastically. Grabbing Cui Zhengyuan's hand, he was trembling and speechless. (To be continued......) R1292
