The Peninsula chaebol started by rescuing Samsung's little princess.

"We, the Daesang Group, want Lotte Confectionery, Lotte Foods, and Lotte Chilsung Beverages!"

"We want Lotte World, Lotte Hotel, and Lotte Resort!"

Inside Li Haorong's villa, the coffee table was laden with dishes freshly prepared by his private chef.

Li Haorong enjoyed his food while watching the beautiful women argue.

Lee Boo-jin and Lim Se-ryung have known each other for over a decade, and they have never argued like this before.

Of course, it's not their fault. After all, acquiring another company right now means assets worth trillions of Korean won.

Two people in love can still argue fiercely over a dowry of several hundred thousand yuan, let alone this much money.

Li Haorong showed no intention of trying to mediate; on the contrary, he ate with great relish.

Having been the richest man in China for so many years, what delicacies hasn't Li Haorong eaten?

For him, eating nowadays brings him very little pleasure, but watching these two arguing so fiercely makes him feel particularly hungry!

He can even show off by having another bowl of rice!

"Hey, stop eating! Tell me, how are we going to divide this?"

During the argument, Lin Shiling turned her head and saw Li Haorong eating heartily, which made her even angrier.

Seeing that Lin Shiling had shifted the topic to Li Haorong, Li Fuzhen also looked over.

Lotte Group currently has approximately 80 companies under its umbrella, covering five sectors: retail, food, tourism, petrochemicals and real estate, and finance.

As one of the largest food companies in the peninsula, if Daesang Group could acquire Lotte Group's food businesses, it would not only enrich its own business and strengthen its power, but could even achieve a monopoly on the peninsula's food industry!

Therefore, what she wants are Lotte Group's retail and food businesses.

As for Lee Boo-jin's Samsung Group, it naturally looks down on Lotte Group's chemical and financial industries. On the contrary, Lotte Group's tourism industry is a good complement to her Shilla Hotel Group.

Therefore, she set her sights on Lotte Group's travel and retail businesses.

As for Li Haorong's Galaxy Group, in addition to planning to bring all of its petrochemical, real estate, and financial businesses under its control, it has also set its sights on tourism and retail!

Now that all three are interested in retail, a debate is inevitable.

"You two must be tired of arguing, right? Come on, let's eat something before we talk again?"

"What do you want to eat? Speak up!"

These two women were not easily fooled with a few words, and they didn't give him a chance to sit back and relax.

Seeing that he had no choice but to step in, Li Haorong simply put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth with a tissue.

"Can't you guys be a little more realistic? There are no outsiders here!"

Who are you showing your negotiation skills to now?

Why did I invite you both over? It's because we're all family. We should discuss things together and not be so calculating with our family!

"Pah, who said we're family?"

Hearing Li Haorong's words, Lin Shiling said coquettishly.

"Feelings are feelings, and business is business; how can you mix them up?"

Lee Boo-jin echoed this sentiment.

"We're all in the same boat, can't we all tell the truth?"

Sister Fu Zhen, I understand that you want a company in the retail industry, but do you really need companies like Lotte Station or Lotte Frozen?

Sister Shiling, do you really need a retail company like Lotte Shopping?

You two are clearly asking for an exorbitant price and trying to haggle!

Now that we're sitting here, let's calmly discuss our bottom lines and stop trying to take everything personally!

Upon hearing Li Haorong expose their thoughts, the tense expressions that Lin Shiling and Li Fuzhen had just displayed vanished instantly.

Ultimately, the reason why the two of them acted so tough was actually to create a persona and pave the way for their subsequent concessions.

But now that Li Haorong had seen through their intentions, they simply stopped pretending and started eating properly.

Seeing them like this, Li Haorong felt a pang of emotion.

Who would have thought that, not long after, the two women arguing in front of us would be the female heads of one of the top ten chaebols in the peninsula?

Of course, acquiring Lotte is a long process, and at present, we have only gained a controlling stake. There is still a lot to be done.

First, it needs to be transformed from a family-controlled model into a holding company, and then it needs to be split up and digested. The whole process will take at least three to five years to complete.

However, once it is fully completed, the entire peninsula's conglomerates will undergo a complete transformation.

At that time, in addition to its own Galaxy Group, the top ten conglomerates on the Korean Peninsula will all become its allies, including Samsung Group, Daesang Group, CJ Group, and Hanwha Group.

In addition, among its allies are top 20 chaebols such as Hanjin and Shinseokil.

Among the top ten conglomerates, the group and POSCO are relatively weak, and the two have always remained neutral and dare not provoke us.

Next, all I need to deal with are Hyundai, K, and L!

With the electric vehicle development plan that Attorney Moon has preliminarily agreed to, Hyundai Group expects its automotive business to overtake its competitors and seize market share from Hyundai and Kia within the next ten years.

According to its own plan, K Group will soon undergo a major change and suffer a significant loss of strength. At that time, K Group will definitely fall out of the top ten.

All that's left is an L!

However, just as Li Haorong was pondering this, his cell phone rang.

He picked it up and saw that it was a call from Gu Guangmo!

There are no permanent friends, only permanent interests. This saying couldn't be more fitting for Gu Guangmo.

There was a time when, before Koo Kwang-mo rose to power, his cooperation with him was extremely close.

But after breaking up with Keiko, he chose Keiko instead.

If that were all, it would be understandable, and Li Haorong wouldn't care too much.

After all, circumstances are beyond one's control, and Gu Guangmo also has to be responsible for the entire group; he can't possibly be buried with him.

But he shouldn't have kicked someone when they were down.

After Huizi took office, he joined the ranks of those suppressing Galaxy Group in an effort to revitalize the mobile phone business.

After Hye-ja's downfall, she became a supporter of Ahn Cheol-soo.

Now that he has lost everything, he suddenly comes knocking on his door, seemingly to beg for mercy.

The reason they contacted me at this time must be because they were scared after seeing what happened to Lotte Group.

-

Just as Lee Ho-young had predicted, the collapse of the Lotte Group caused a huge uproar throughout the peninsula, especially among the chaebols.

After all, no matter how much they fought in the past, everyone still had a bottom line: no harm should be done to family members.

But Li Haorong's move was so daring that he seized the entire family's assets. It was absolutely terrifying!

If he can target Le Tianxia, ​​he can target others as well.

Galaxy Group's market value has now officially risen to the top in the peninsula, making it the veritable number one chaebol in the peninsula!

In addition, he has the help of many chaebols and the government, and other chaebols are no match for Li Haorong.

Gu Guangmo was filled with unease, fearing that he would follow in Letian's footsteps.

"President Gu, please come in!"

Outside the villa, Old Mo came out and had someone open the gate to invite Gu Guangmo in.

Gu Guangmo nodded to Lao Mo, and then followed him into the villa.

As soon as he entered, he saw Li Haorong holding a seven or eight-year-old child watching TV.

"Hey, what brings Chairman Koo here?"

Li Haorong laughed upon seeing this.

"President Li is joking!"

Gu Guangmo forced a smile.

"Uncle, I'm going to take a nap!"

At this moment, the child in Li Haorong's arms spoke.

But Li Haorong had no intention of letting him go, and pulled him back, saying, "Listen to the end before you leave!"

Seeing this, the child continued to sit in Li Haorong's lap without making a sound.

Looking at the child, Gu Guangmo already knew that he must be Lee Boo-jin's son, Lee Dong-hyun.

Seeing the two of them like this, he couldn't help but think to himself, "What 'uncle-in-law'? He's clearly my dad!"

"Speak, what do you want from me?"

Upon hearing Li Haorong's question, Gu Guangmo quickly snapped out of his daze and replied:

"I know I did some things wrong in the past two years, and I've come here today specifically to apologize to you."

"Apologize? How should I apologize?"

"I intend to sell the group's mobile phone business to you!"

"Pfft..."

Before Gu Guangmo could finish speaking, Li Haorong couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Your mobile phone business is a money-losing proposition. Do you think I'm a garbage dump?"

Lee Ho-yong's words, which were so hurtful they seemed to undermine his morale, made Koo Kwang-mo's face turn very ugly.

After Hye-ja took office, Koo Kwang-mo planned to revitalize L's mobile phone business and spent a lot of money developing and promoting new phones. However, L phones were like products abandoned by the times and could not make a comeback.

To date, L has accumulated losses of over $10 billion for two consecutive years.

Of course, L's mobile phone business is not as worthless as Li Haorong said. Whether it is channels, technology, design or other fields, it is world-class.

Li Haorong said this to try and lower the price.

Gu Guangmo was well aware of this, but he still patiently said, "I can sell it for a lower price, or I can add something else. As long as you're willing to help, anything is possible!"

He was giving a gift to someone, but he claimed that he was asking them to help him. He had never experienced this kind of humiliation since he became the vice president!

"Does the mobile phone business unit you just mentioned include L and P technologies?"

The so-called L technology stands for organic electroluminescent display technology;

P technology refers to liquid crystal display technology.

Both of these are essentially display technology.

This is L's core technology, which is incomparable to the mobile phone business.

But Li Haorong putting it inside at this point was clearly adding conditions.

Gu Guangmo hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Include it!"

There's nothing we can do; circumstances are beyond our control. If we lose this trump card technology, the group still has other technologies, but if the group itself disappears, then having these technologies is useless!

"Hmm, that's good. We'll discuss the details later!"

Hearing this, Li Haorong nodded in satisfaction.

While Galaxy Group's mobile phones have always sold well, their success has been largely attributed to design and marketing, with them consistently trailing behind Apple and Samsung in terms of technology.

With the support of L's technology, Galaxy Mobile is now fully capable of catching up with them and becoming a world leader in mobile phone manufacturing.

As for Koo Kwang-mo, his apology was quite sincere. After this reprimand, he should behave better for a long time to come!

In this way, the threat posed by L will no longer exist.

Next, only the K Group is left!
