The New York Times reported on May 3 that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) accused Volkswagen of using hidden software called "failed devices" in carbon emissions tests to circumvent clean air standards.

The pollutant emissions of the vehicles involved in the actual driving process may reach 40 times the legal standard. If the charges are confirmed, the Environmental Protection Agency could impose fines of up to $37,500 per car under federal law, meaning Volkswagen could face fines of up to $18 billion.

This is the biggest scandal in the decades since Volkswagen was founded.

The problem of using software to falsify exhaust gas detection is not only for the 500,000 vehicles sold in North America, but for 11 million vehicles worldwide. Volkswagen's "exhaust gate" scandal has quickly fermented, and several major sales countries in the peninsula, Australia and Northern Europe have expressed concern, and it is not yet clear whether the Chinese government is also taking measures.

The area of influence is getting bigger and bigger, and other German car companies have also been affected.

As soon as the Volkswagen "emissionsgate" scandal was exposed, the company's stock price fell sharply in a row, falling by more than 20% in two consecutive days, and its market value evaporated by nearly one-third at the speed of light, equivalent to 25 billion euros.

If it were not for this incident, it would have been a foregone conclusion that the current president at the head of the group would have renewed his contract at next year's supervisory board.

As the incident continued to ferment, a series of chain reactions, even the stock prices of local North American manufacturers cooperating with Europe were also implicated.

As investors feared that the accusations could implicate other automakers, the shares of all the companies involved fell, posting their biggest one-day drop in recent years.

......

[According to this station, at nine o'clock in the morning of the official time, the CEO of Volkswagen Group's official press conference, Wendkorn, stated. I am mainly responsible for the negligence of the company's decision-making, and I have submitted my resignation. Although Winterkorn admits that Volkswagen manipulated the software, he has always denied that he already knew about it......]

"The mouth is really hard!" Li Ang, who was sitting on the sofa with his arms crossed, watched the evening news reported in real time on TV, and sneered a little speechlessly.

According to the data of his own investigation, as early as a few years ago, Volkswagen took back a large number of cars to be listed under the pretext that the products were not qualified, which shows that the 'software' is definitely not used for a day or two.

"What's going on with my brother? It's definitely not going to be any better if you're busy for a while..."Li Ang turned off the TV, picked up his phone, and asked casually.

"Leo was transferred to the New York headquarters by the chairman, but he has not been promoted at present, so he has been transferred in the past." Ricardo replied expressionlessly as he stood behind the couch with his hands in his hands.

The editor sent a message to Shin Jimin, and Lee Ang stretched his waist and got up from the sofa and moved his muscles.

Father's intention to arrange this is already obvious, but I don't know if my brainless eldest brother can understand the meaning.

"You go to the store first, I'll just drive out by myself." I grabbed a bunch of car keys from the counter at the door and walked towards the garage.

"Let's send someone to follow along, so let's be safe," Ricardo persuaded as he hurriedly followed.

Leon waved his hand to signal no, this is not in California, there is no need to bring someone with him every time he goes out.

This time I went out for a circle, and it has been two months since I went around in circles.

Halfway through, I remembered that I should bring some gifts after not seeing each other for so long.

I found the nearest mall and bought two bottles of the same style of perfume at the counter.

I haven't received a reply from Shin Jimin on my phone, I don't know what she's busy with at the moment, and she doesn't even have time to look at her phone.

Thinking of their agent's appearance, Leon dismissed the idea of calling her and turned around and drove towards the store.

……

After a long time, he sat in front of her again and skillfully asked for a glass of wine.

Concubine Kwon raised her head happily when she heard the familiar voice that she had not seen for a long time, and the man who had disappeared for two months finally appeared.

looked at Concubine Quan En, who had a complicated expression in front of her, and reminded her loudly that it was time to go to work.

I took out my phone and sent her a message in person.

[I specially brought you a gift, and I will give it to you when you get off work.] 】

[I thought you wouldn't come again...]

Seeing this news, Li Ang couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth and burst out laughing.

Raising his head and giving her a look, she asked her to take away the expression on her face, which was a little too conspicuous.

♪You're the right time at the right moment

As soon as Leon's wine glass was brought to his lips, the phone on the bar rang with a ringtone.

Seeing that it was Shin Jimin calling, she must have been busy at this time.

Putting the wine glass down, he walked to the office and answered the phone directly.

"Oba~ What are you looking for me?"

"Isn't this going around the earth and coming back? I'll send you a message as soon as possible. ”

"Cut, I don't believe it, I sent you so many messages some time ago and didn't reply, I thought you didn't want to 'refill the cup' anymore."

"Where is this? I'm going to find you..."

In the bar, Concubine Kwon has been paying attention to the movement at the door of the office. Until Leon walked out of the office and left the bar, the glass of wine on the bar didn't move from beginning to end.

……

I drove from Itaewon to the apartment in Cheongdam-dong, and sent her the location and apartment password in advance, and their dormitory is also very close to here, and it won't take long to walk to it.

When Lee Ang entered the apartment with the gift and changed his shoes at the entrance, Shin Jimin, who was in the living room, couldn't wait to trot all the way to Lee Ang.

Without saying a word, he jumped up in a bear hug.

"Eh~ Don't shake it, I haven't hugged it yet."

Li Ang stabilized his body, changed into slippers, and carried her light body to the sofa in the living room and sat down.

Seeing that she was dressed a little foul today, her hands were stroking her waist with a pair of hands, "Do you miss me?" ”

"Not at all, I've been busy preparing for my return recently, how can I think about you stinky man." Shin Ji-min put his hands on Leon's shoulders, felt a burning snort between his neck, and symbolically nudged him.

Brought the handbag thrown on the sofa to Shin Jimin's eyes, "Open it and take a look, I bought you a gift." ”

"A gift for me?" Some people open the bag in disbelief and look like a small object.

looked at Li Ang with an inquiring expression, and seeing that he looked like he had nothing to say, Shin Jimin still unpacked it by himself.

"Oh Mo, perfume?" Covering her mouth, she looked at him with some surprise.

What it means to give perfume to the opposite sex is well known to everyone on the peninsula. Only after you have made your mind clear, you will give perfume as a gift to the opposite sex you like.

"Oba~ Why did you suddenly send me..."

"Do you like it?" Leon interrupted her, staring straight at her bright red lips.

"Like~" was successfully fed by his own brain, and his mind was full of chaos at this time.

"Hmm~"

was the first to be attacked by him, and at this time there was no other thought than obedience.
