In February of '06, there was a heavy snowfall.

Lin Wei took annual leave, built a snowman with Cui Minshu's childish collection of snowflakes, and used a snowball fight to take off Mu Xianmin, who was originally full of disgust.

Washing away the cold in the hot water, at night, in the entertainment room on the second floor, the three of them watched a European and American movie together.

In the dead of night, Lin Wei waited until they were asleep before tiptoeing into the study.

For him, annual leave is just more time to spend with his family, but in terms of work, even if today's things can be handed over to his subordinates, he is used to planning and preparing for a rainy day.

But when it came time to plan for the new year, he was rare and stuck.

There were several major events full of uncertainty that hindered the tip of the pen in his hand.

Lin Wei looked at the few major events circled by himself on the scratch paper, and his brows gradually furrowed.

'Election', 'Whale', 'Insider'.

Needless to say, the election - Lin Wei personally chose Zhao Haixiong as the object of support, shaped him from a nobody to a civilian elite, frequently brushed his face on TV stations, and spent a lot of money with foreign celebrities to get pictures and support.

It only took Lin Wei half a year to make his support rate jump from 0.0 percent to 15 percent, but he knows very well that this may also be his limit, and in the next time, even if he uses the media to advocate it, Zhao Haixiong's support rate will be in his early twenties.

Compared with Zhang Bizhou, who is now far ahead in the polls and has reached almost 41 percent, Zhao Haixiong does not have the slightest advantage in the face of the 25 percent support of another New Party lawmaker who announced his candidacy after the collapse of Li Biming.

Lin Wei's pen tip lightly clicked on the word election on the draft, pondered for a moment, and drew heavy lines, linking to the three words 'insider'.

The three words of the insider refer to the story of the original "Insider", that is, the joint forces of Zhang Bizhou, Li Jiangxi, and Wu Yanxiu.

is referring to Lin Wei's current internal forces.

Lin Wei, Song Minghui, Gao Donghao, Cui Zhongshi.

Lin Wei has always maintained a secret connection with Song Minghui, as a chaebol, he has the support of Song Minghui as the prosecutor general, Cui Zhongshi, who is the power department, to cover his Jinmen, and Gao Donghao of the strategy department to collect the scandals of his competitors for him

This has made him invincible and invincible in the past year.

In the M&A case, he was not stuck by any department, not to mention the release of new products, patent registration, open and secret competition with competitors, and actions against Li Biming

This is all closely related to his internal forces.

But Lin Wei knows very well that this power is not permanent.

Especially when there are some contradictions within the country - Gao Donghao has his own thoughts on the presidential election.

Song Minghui and Cui Zhongshi saw with their own eyes how Lin Wei came up this way, although they had doubts about Zhao Haixiong whom he elected, but they would rather wait until Lin Wei was about to fail before raising doubts, which was the trust that Lin Wei had accumulated along the way, succeeded many times, and completed miracles many times.

But Gao Donghao doesn't have such a deep sympathy as them, in his opinion, supporting Zhao Haixiong is thankless, even if Zhang Bizhou is not suitable, so why not support another guy who thinks he has a better chance of winning?

Lin Wei's choice of Zhao Haixiong's behavior was considered to be a somewhat conceited choice and made out of personal feelings rather than interests, even if it was interests, it was not the best interest choice of their interest community.

This also indirectly leads to the fact that the original monthly meeting has become somewhat unfixed.

Lin Wei was dissatisfied, but Cui Zhongshi and Song Minghui were relatively silent, maybe in their opinion, it was time for Lin Wei to prepare something and persuade them.

Lin Wei's pen twirled on the election and insiders, and his eyes narrowed.

Finally, his hand paused slightly, and he wrote two new names.

Wu Changxun. Qianxin rain.

After drawing a circle on the two names, Lin Wei looked at the word 'whale' in the middle, showed a sneer, and crossed it.

There was a knock on the door outside the study.

Lin Wei raised his head with a calm expression: "Come in." ”

Mu Xianmin pushed open the door and yawned sleepily.

"As soon as I turned around and found you weren't there, I knew you were here again. If you really have something to do, don't you have time in the morning and afternoon?

There's no need to work overtime alone at night in order to accompany us more. ”

She complained as she approached, only to see a scribbled scratch paper drawn by him, glanced at it, did not ask or look closely, just leaned a little lazily on the desk beside him, reached out and touched his face: "I'll make you a cup of coffee?" ”

"No, that's all for tonight."

Lin Wei threw the paper into the shredder, and the shredded documents from the shredder would be thrown to the fireplace on the first floor to burn.

Mu Xianmin hugged him sleepily: "Have you been under a lot of pressure lately?" ”

"It's more calculating."

Lin Wei said, one of the few people did not choose to carry it alone, but considered it and said, "Why don't we talk?" ”

Mu Xianmin came to the spirit.

She opened her eyes wide, looked at Lin Wei, and for a while, showed a bright smile: "Okay! ”

Mu Xianmin was excited, first touched the teapot in his study, confirmed that the tea was warm, poured a cup for the two of them, and then moved a chair to sit opposite him, holding the teacup quite formally, and said with a bright face: "Say it." ”

Lin Wei was a little funny, and suddenly blamed himself, he thought, since Mu Xianmin gave birth to a child, the frequency of work has decreased a lot compared to before pregnancy, he thought that she preferred to devote herself to the family, but now it seems that she sacrificed herself for Lin Wei and the family.

He took the matter to heart, but didn't say much, just smiled and said, "Let me think about where to start first. Let's start with the election. ”

"It's that big?" Mu Xianmin quipped, and then looked at him with a calm expression: "Is there pressure on Song Minghui's side?" ”

She's too smart.

"That's right." Lin Wei said calmly: "To be precise, Minister Gao." ”

"Heh, what kind of magic is there in the Strategy Department?"

Mu Xianmin has a disgust for the word "Strategy Department", thanks to everything Han Qiangzhi did to Lin Wei.

But as soon as she said that, she immediately threw herself in: "He has a crush on the parliamentarians under President Lu? ”

"Hmm."

Lin Wei nodded: "After all, judging from the polls, for now, it seems that he is the only one who is qualified to compete with Zhang Bizhou." ”

"This should be expected. What are you distressed about? Mu Xianmin narrowed his eyes, thoughtful.

"I'm wondering if he's still worth trusting."

Lin Wei said calmly: "If we want Zhao Haixiong to take office, what we have to do is to first pull Zhang Bizhou off the horse - until this step, I believe that all of us have the same interests, but in the second step, we need to pull down the people on President Lu's side." ”

"Drag all the competitors into the water, and the candidate who floats on the surface naturally becomes the only candidate."

Mu Xianmin laughed twice: "This is indeed the style of a bad guy like you." ”

Lin Wei shrugged: "I don't just want Zhang Bizhou to go underwater, Li Jiangxi also has to go down." ”

Mu Xianmin pondered for a moment: "It's not simple. ”

"But it's not as hard as you think."

After Lin Wei finished speaking, Mu Xianmin didn't worry too much about how to implement it, when he said this, he already had a certain number in his heart, so what was he still worried about?

Lin Wei didn't sell it, and said directly: "The difficult thing is the one under Councilor Lu - to clean him up, even at the end of President Lu's career, the test for me, the test within our faction, this is also a serious problem." ”

"Don't you think it's impossible for President Lu's men to win another streak?"

Mou Xianmin asked.

Lin Wei shook his head: "It's not what it used to be, I've already got rid of Li Biming, and then I got Zhang Bizhou, that is, I beheaded two conservative generals in a row, and the people will inevitably have new doubts about the conservatives in the opposition when they see the conservatives fall one after another."

At that point, the newcomers under President Lew will not have a chance of winning – sometimes, they can win not because of how good the candidate is, but because the other candidates are worse. ”

Lin Wei's words made Mu Xianmin fall into deep thought, she had already guessed what Lin Wei was confused, or what the problem was.

"Are you worried that if you insist on getting rid of the congressman under President Lu, Gao Donghao may betray you?"

Mu Xianmin said.

Lin Wei nodded.

"In the end, he is a newcomer who came up during his term of office, and he has nothing to do with President Lu's side, do you believe it?"

Lin Wei laughed twice, and then said: "His position is not secure, the most important thing is that in our faction, even Cui Zhongshi is bigger than him - if he wins the bet, he will at most advance to the second chief, but it is more likely that he will stay in place and accumulate qualifications, but if he loses, I am afraid that his strategy will become three." ”

"But if we follow the people under President Lu, once we fail, Song Minghui will undoubtedly go in the next term."

Lin Wei narrowed his eyes: "Prosecutor General, this position is enough to make many people lose their minds." ”

Mu Xianmin licked his lips, picked up the hair that had grown a little around his ears, hooked his hair with one hand, and slowly turned in a circle.

After a while, she suddenly said, "What's so scary?" ”

Mu Xianmin stared at Lin Wei and smiled slightly: "A tooth for a tooth, blood for a blood, you want to get rid of the one under Councilor Lu, but it's not just because of the election, right?" ”

"Indeed."

Lin Wei leaned back in his chair and breathed heavily: "Have you heard about the amendment to the Anti-Monopoly Law discussed by Congress at the end of the year?" ”

"Hmm."

Mu Xianmin nodded.

"I think it's coming for me." Lin Wei has a keen sense of smell.

Mu Xianmin frowned: "Are you sure?" ”

"I have a hunch."

Lin Wei knocked on the table and said solemnly: "The merger of Kinmen, NW, and Seoul will start in March, this matter is not a secret, we spent a year adjusting equity, excluding dissidents, integrating business, sorting out and planning the future route.

This thing cannot fail. ”

From the point of view of interests, it is not a good idea to merge the three large groups, although Lin Wei is the president, it is safer to put his eggs in three baskets than to put them in one.

But from the point of view of power, this is not the case, the power is always more and more aggregated, when the three groups merge, the interests of all employees and management of the three groups will also be completely linked together, only the people below are forced to glue together, Lin Wei's power will be infinitely magnified, because the career and life of the person under his feet will be closely related to him.

Once the merger is completed, Lin Wei will soon become the sixth largest chaebol on the South Korean Peninsula.

Although there is a gap with old-fashioned enterprises in the asset and technology industry, the huge real estate empire has been formed, and in the network technology industry, Lin Wei has become the industry leader.

He acquired the Android operating system early, reached a cooperation with Google, shared Android shares, open-sourced the Android system and developed APP content in advance, and when the Apple mobile phone appeared, he would transplant the successful app in the Android system to IOS at the fastest speed, completely opening the gap with other ignorant peers in the field of smart phones.

In the field of online shopping, he has completely defeated Amazon in South Korea, using more convenient and faster express delivery to smash Amazon's world map in South Korea.

He is the owner of South Korea's first food delivery platform, and as an expanded part of the logistics industry, his market share in Seoul has reached a staggering 46% before anyone even knows it.

Profits are not high at present, but Lin Wei knows very well that the era of the real takeaway industry, online shopping, and logistics is still to come, and now the market is the most important thing compared to profits.

In addition to these industries, in the media field, Lin Wei has now become the chairman of the Seoul Group, although he is holding a temporary agreement on Mou Yingying's shares, temporarily using the shares he has, but there is no doubt that even if these shares are finally handed over to Mu Xianmin, they will become part of the joint property of Lin Wei and Mu Xianmin.

Before getting married, the two had already customized a strict property prenuptial agreement through a lawyer, sharing weal and woe and wealth together.

In addition to the physical field, which controls South Korea's No. 1 print media, Lin Wei also controls the largest social media on the Internet today.

From private communication media such as Axu to the most popular group social platform such as Weitalk, including a number of social media combinations that are still under development and waiting for the future of Twitter, ins and other software that are still being developed and waiting for the power of the smartphone field, are still gearing up.

Lin Wei knows very well that as long as everything goes according to plan, in three years, he will be the top five chaebols in the entire peninsula, and even with the development of the Internet era, the price of network technology has begun to soar, and he is even expected to beat his chaebol peers who take traditional industries as leading enterprises, and sit in the top three, or even the top two.

And this is exactly what Lu Xuanwu fears the most - an even more terrifying young chaebol with unlimited potential in the future will complete the rise during his tenure.

"They're afraid of me."

Lin Wei used only four words to summarize the mentality of the supporters of the anti-monopoly law.

Mu Xianmin muttered: "That's why you have to be so resolute, you don't even want to let go of the one under President Lu, you must win it steadily"

"If they think I'm dangerous, I have to tell them that I'm more dangerous than they think."

Lin Wei took a deep breath and put down the pen in his hand that slowly turned on his fingertips.

"If you want to shackle a lion with a tooth for a tooth or blood for blood, you have to let them know how dangerous it is to catch a lion."

Lin Wei looked at Mu Xianmin, but Mu Xianmin suddenly laughed.

She pointed at Lin Wei: "You're not asking me to seek a solution at all." ”

"Yes."

Lin Wei said frankly.

Mu Xianmin looked at him, his eyes were a little confused, maybe it was a mixture of emotions such as longing, expectation, and admiration.

She propped her chin and looked at him a little stupidly, and after a while, she showed a bright smile: "Since it's decided, let's do it." ”

"Anyway, even if you fail, what can you do, even if you go to prison, I will prop up the company and wait for you to come out - your plan has been calculated for three years, and it will not be wrong to change Min Shulai."

Mu Xianmin stretched: "You don't have to worry about security, only they are afraid of you." ”

Lin Wei pursed his lips, and stretched out his hand for a while.

Mu Xianmin just smiled, stretched out his hand, and interlocked his fingers with him on the desk.

"Half of those who have traveled a hundred miles are less than ninety, what do you have to hesitate about coming to this point?"

"One will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, and many people will die." Lin Wei whispered, looking at her with gentle eyes.

"It's good that our people don't die."

Mu Xianmin's eyes were full of affection, and he was not swayed at all by the bloody rain and bloody wind that he had skimmed in his words.

Lin Wei's fingers rubbed her fingers.

"I'm going to hurt some people again that I don't want to hurt."

"That Qianxinyu?"

Mou Xianmin remembered the names of the people on his draft.

Lin Wei nodded slowly.

Mu Xianmin tilted his head, a little surprised, but then, thoughtfully, and finally, laughed.

She looked at Lin Wei for a long time, and said calmly: "If she gets in the way of you, I will get rid of her, if not, for her sake of being so pitiful, I can give her a little. You belong to me. ”

"What if I don't want to get rid of her?" Lin Wei lowered his eyes.

"I'll do it too." Mu Xianmin said confidently: "I don't want Xiao Cui to share you by my side, do you really think I'm so generous?" ”

"Got it." Lin Wei was relieved: "Don't hate me. ”

"Got it, despicable fellow." Mu Xianmin smiled, took his hand and got up, and threw himself into his arms: "It's all your fault, I'm not sleepy." ”

"I'll help you burn your energy." Lin Wei hugged her tightly and lowered his head to kiss.

She stretched out her arms like a gorgeous and dangerous flower growing in his arms, clinging to his tree-tall body.
