Chapter 495 Secret (2)

 Of course, there is no shortage of the following offenders in every era.

There is no shortage of people who throw their heads and blood and sacrifice themselves for everyone.

For example, Lao Quan promulgated anti-monopoly laws right from the start. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that he wants to limit the further expansion of chaebols and support small and medium-sized enterprises.

But this year, just when Lao Quan was preparing to carry out drastic reforms of the chaebol group, the arrival of an economic crisis directly killed all plans in the cradle.

This year, more than half of the companies were facing debt, and the economy was teetering on the edge of collapse. At this time, Lao Quan had no intention of rectifying the chaebol. On the contrary, he was extremely afraid of the bankruptcy of the chaebol group.

So like his predecessor, Lao Quan had to use the power of the entire country to save the chaebol group.

Five years later, the operating income of the top 20 chaebol groups in the country accounted for 70% of the total income.

More than 50% of state-owned enterprises have been converted from public to private, including pillar enterprises of the country, such as steel, shipbuilding, and crude oil import trade, all of which are controlled by chaebols.

After failing to fight the tiger, he was bitten by the tiger. After the boss suffered a setback, he just lay flat. In the end, even his financial rights were gradually lost.

Of course, the direct result after Lao Quan was laid to rest was that the country's economy took off again. The chaebols used their strength to tell Lao Quan to find out who the father was in the four streets of east, west, north and south!

Lao Quan's successor, Lao Lu, was even more ruthless, announcing that banks would be open to all and interest rates of financial institutions would be regulated after fees.

This means that the country has completely lost its financial control power, and chaebols have entered the country one after another, swallowing up the only remaining financial power in the hands of the country.

Non-state-owned financial institutions have sprouted everywhere, and foreign banks have also entered the market. The scale of the chaebols has further increased under such a soil.

In this year, the top 50 chaebol groups accounted for 99% of Nanbang's GDP.

Money and power are two things that are closely related but independent of each other.

The word business is not a modern word. Regardless of its predecessor, business, business is actually a set of logical rules.

But in the long history, although money can interfere with the rights of the bottom, it cannot interfere with the destiny of the entire country.

However, when money meets the modern so-called dishonest system, the power of money to intervene is extremely huge.

When Lao Lu wanted to kill the chicken and scare the monkey, he pulled out the "chicken" of the Hyundai Group. Now the group has directly come out with black information, saying that it provides billions of won to those in power as funds for activities every year.

The implication is that you all received money from me, and if you want to maintain this country, you rely on us plutocrats.

Crazy?

Are you trying to challenge our authority?

Give you a big showdown!

This layer of window paper was pierced, and Lao Lu panicked all of a sudden, because he knew very well that once this matter was successfully done, no one would have to do anything, and his own subordinates would have to tie him up to claim credit.
p>

To put it bluntly, we are all human beings and we all have to make money.

The most important thing is that the power of public opinion at that time was completely controlled by the chaebol.

TV stations, newspapers, and magazines were all supposed to be tools for Lao Lu's rhetoric, but now they have become the sword of public opinion for the plutocrats, and the places where this sword is swung are naturally places that are disadvantageous to the plutocrats.

Amidst the ridicule, Lao Lu stepped down, and later people called him a parallel import!

Later, Jin Laosan came to power. Due to the influence of Lao Lu, he began to carry out internal anti-corruption as soon as he came up.

Jin Laosan's goal is very clear, which is to completely separate his subordinates from the chaebol, so as to solve his own problems first and then the chaebol group.

Jin Laosan regarded it as his duty to overthrow the chaebol group. In order to completely solve the problem of the economy being solidified by the chaebols, he even opened the domestic market to the outside world, allowing foreign capital to enter indiscriminately, thus triggering a frenzy of foreign capital influx.

But soon, the shortcomings of this policy broke out. Opening up the domestic market did suppress domestic chaebol groups, but the entry of foreign capital increased foreign debt, which eventually worsened the profits of domestic companies and led to the advent of an economic bubble.

When the Asian economic crisis broke out, South Korean companies exploded one after another. The stock market fell by 70%, the Korean won depreciated by 60%, and the national unemployment rate rose to 6.8%.

Jin Laosan can't sit still anymore, the chaebol goes bankrupt, and the economy collapses!

It’s a familiar taste and a familiar formula. If you want to overthrow the chaebol, you have to endure the pain of returning to before liberation. It’s too painful and no one can bear it.

Jin Laosan still wants to learn from his predecessors, bow his head to the chaebol, give in, and lie down.

But before he could do this, he was scolded and resigned.

Then Jin Da came. Faced with this situation, this 'hero' came up with a trick to remove the firepower from the bottom of the cauldron.

It is not impossible to save the chaebol group, but it must also be completely reduced to his vassal.

So as soon as he came up, he immediately imposed a series of restrictions on the chaebol groups. The condition for saving them was that they must adjust the industrial structure according to his requirements.

Kinda's goals are very clear. The first is to regain financial power, and the second is to demand transparency from chaebols.

Through this move, Kinda not only revitalized the Korean economy, but also brought the chaebol back from the brink of bankruptcy. In addition, it regained financial rights and made the chaebol more transparent. This move is really high.

However, after the industrial reorganization, the chaebols developed more rapidly, and due to the integration of industries, the chaebols became oligarchic chaebols.

In the past, it was scattered among various industries. Although it was huge, it was big but not tall.

Now, although the size is smaller, it can grow to unattainable heights.

To put it simply, Jinda integrated the situation of the Central Plains being divided among the heroes, divided their territories, and you can do whatever you like in your own small country.

This also resulted in the semiconductor industry, which can only have one four-star existence in this country!

Is this a good thing?

Of course not!

Without competitiveness, how can we develop?

Jinda is actually a good candidate to be the CEO, but he cannot be the chairman and lacks a strategic layout.

Then the more famous Er Lu came. He had taken seven judicial examinations and his personal will was unparalleled. But for Er Lu, what awaited him after leaving office was a cliff-jumping incident.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

As soon as Er Lu came on stage, he pulled out Lao Pu and whipped his corpse.

Why target Lao Pu? Because most chaebols rose up during the Lao Pu era.

Therefore, Erlu's goal is very clear, which is to clean up the chaebol from this perspective.

Not long after, Erlu came up with a sure-fire move and restricted news control and monopoly power. The goal was to completely separate the country's right to speak out from the chaebol group.

It's a good idea. There is no doubt about Erlu's ability. Every step he takes is right.

After doing these two things, the war between Erlu and the chaebol began.

As the saying goes, if you kill the first bird with a gun and ask someone to sacrifice the flag, four stars is the best choice.

So the four-star President Lee was prosecuted and sentenced to three years, but suspended for five years.

But in the country, suspended sentence is equal to exemption from prison sentence!

This is a bad start for Erlu, a small defeat in the first battle!

But this is not the most terrible thing. The most terrible thing is that Lao Lu is so jealous that he only cares about the plutocrats and completely ignores economic development.

During this period of time under Er Lu, housing prices in Nanbang increased by an average of 50%. Coupled with the advent of the world economic crisis, domestic inflation became serious, and eventually public dissatisfaction boiled over.

For the people at the bottom, they don't care whether they are chaebols or not. They only care about whether they have a job and whether their wages can resist inflation. Obviously, from this perspective, the two-rupee is a failure.

Of course, he did fail!

But for the chaebols, although Erlu has resigned, the matter is far from over.

If you don’t take revenge, can you still call yourself a chaebol?

No, Erlu is beginning to be liquidated, not only by himself, but also by everyone around him!

Erlu himself can sit upright, but he cannot control everyone around him!

And when everyone around you has problems, it’s hard to be alone.

If he were alone, he might not be afraid of this kind of pressure and could just fight to the end.

But seeing the misfortune of everyone around him, Erlu was still crushed.

Erlu's death was caused by his successor, Comrade Li Qingxi, and was full of the revenge of the chaebol.

Li Qingxi, who once served as the president of Hyundai Construction Group, his mantra is: I'm sorry!

And these apologies are all genuine apologies. Behind these apologies, it is Li Qingxi who has paved the way for the chaebol and opened the door to power time and time again.

In his own words: The management of the country is above all else. I am not the one with the highest authority, I want to be the CEO of the country!

For him, the country is like a company. What is the most important thing for a company? Of course it is profit!

And what price can be paid for profit? Of course it is any price!

Lenin once said: "For the sake of profit, capital can hang itself with a clearly marked price."

Comrade Li Qingxi governs the country as a CEO, so for him, the economy is the most important, and it is the chaebol group that drives the economy, so ensuring the interests of the chaebol group is the most important.

It is precisely with his strong endorsement that the power of the chaebol has become even greater.

The operating income of the top ten chaebol groups accounts for 80% of the total national income, and the five largest chaebol groups account for two-thirds of the total GDP.

Another conclusion is that Li Qingxi’s predecessor still had the ability to outmaneuver the chaebol. Since then, he has completely lost the bargaining chip in the fight!

Four big words - there is no way to save the day!

In this world, Gao Bin is also one of the beneficiaries. It’s good that he didn’t applaud and applaud. Do you expect him to face the chaebol? You want to be fooled!

However, at this point in the story, there should be no argument. Wouldn’t it be better for everyone to cut leeks together?

Why did an OBS TV station make Gao Bin feel an unprecedented crisis?

Li Fuzhen’s story gave him the answer.

Didn’t Erlu work hard to reorganize the public opinion circles of Bangguo before his death?

OBS, formerly known as Seoul Broadcasting, is actually the product of Lao Lu’s struggle!

With the death of Lao Lu, the grudges between the chaebol and him were barely wiped out.

And obs is the respite left by the chaebol to the descendants of Lao Lu.

Just keep this TV station to eat, and don’t come out to cause trouble in the future.

But with the official launch of obs, this TV station has become like a base for the Avengers.

Not only people from Erlu have shares in it, but also the descendants of previous commanders have also occupied a place in OBS TV station.

In order to prevent these guys from causing trouble, several major chaebols have been controlling the broadcast scope of OBS to Gyeonggi Province instead of the whole country. This is the reason.

The people in the Avengers are very sensitive, and Zhang Mincan was unlucky. When he was investigating the background of the TV station, he happened to find someone from the Avengers.

Before taking any further action, the Avengers thought that the plutocrats were shameless and wanted to kill them.

That's why there is such a big move to control people directly through the Security Bureau.

Seeing Gao Bin's pinched expression, Li Fuzhen couldn't help but snickered:

"What's wrong? Are you scared?"

"I'm so scared! I'm depressed and regretful. I have nothing to do, so I have to set up some TV station! I really don't have enough money."

"Hahaha, do you still remember when you asked me to investigate the director of the Seoul Police Department?"

Gao Bin raised his eyebrows:

"No way? There is a connection between the two?"

Li Fuzhen nodded slightly:

"That person is a relative of Jinda. The reason why such an important position is assigned to him is also the result of the efforts of Jinda's loyal fans. They have not stopped in these years."

Gao Bin suddenly realized, this is not surprising. No wonder there was so much resistance when investigating that person last time. It turns out that the background is clear.

"What are your plans now?" Li Fuzhen asked softly while holding his chin.

"Get the people out. I won't touch the TV station anymore. Whoever wants it can want it!"

He also thought about it. After all, the world will be dominated by the Internet. Who will watch TV among young people?

"Haha, do you need my help?"

Gao Bin nodded:

"Please help me explain it to the people over there. I didn't mean to offend."

He gave in quickly because he was making good money and there was no need to get involved with a bunch of guys who were obsessed with revenge.

"Okay, but you must never tell these things. To a certain extent, they are secrets of the upper class circles. Everyone has maintained a certain tacit understanding, and no one should touch anyone's brow."

Gao Bin nodded:

"Don't worry, I know it."

"That's good."

...

The accident happened suddenly, but the result was pretty good. At least Gao Bin knew a lot of secrets and didn't let the trouble expand.

After not sleeping all night, Gao Bin was so tired that he didn't even leave. He went downstairs to get a suite and slept for a full day.

In the evening, I played adult games with Li Fuzhen for a while, then I washed up and went home to have dinner with my wife and kids.

"What did you do last night? You didn't come back all night!"

Kim So Hee actually knew some of Gao Bin's affairs outside, but she was too lazy to care.

On the one hand, she believed that Gao Bin loved her and he would not bring troubles from outside into his home.

On the other hand, she is very satisfied with her current life. Even if she makes a big fuss, will the future be better?

Coupled with the tireless persuasion of the parents, it is normal for any man to live and drink outside, as long as he does not bring a woman home and still loves you, just ignore it.

Moreover, Gao Bin is indeed very well-balanced. He spends time with the two of them whenever he has time, and never makes them feel left out.

The reason why Jin Suxi asked was because she felt a little strange. She said she would come back yesterday, but she didn't come back. Maybe something happened.

Gao Bin briefly talked about last night's itinerary, and then said:

"Sorry, I was supposed to call back, but I forgot."

"It's okay, Oppa, there's no need to apologize." Jin Suxi smiled sweetly, added a fried small yellow croaker to her daughter and let her bite it.

"I am truly blessed to marry you."

Because his wife is sensible, Gao Bin expressed his feelings.

"Hehe, then you have to be nicer to me."

"That's for sure~"

Suddenly he remembered something:

"Haven't you always wanted to go to New Zealand? How about we go to New Zealand as a family during the Chinese New Year this year?"

"Really? Do you have time?"

"Yes! Don't worry, I will take 10 days of vacation in advance, which should be enough."

"Great, then I will be responsible for booking flights and hotels."

"Okay, just look at the arrangements~"

Xiao Enxi also raised her little hands and cheered:

"Oh wuu~ I want to go out and play."

Kim So Hee holds her daughter in her arms:

"Yes, I want to go out and play. Is the baby happy?"

"Happy! I want to ride an elephant!"

Kim So Hee couldn’t laugh or cry:

"You know the elephant!"

At the beginning of the year, Gao Bin had no time, so Kim So Hee took Eun Hee to Thailand, and the two of them rode an elephant. Although Eun Hee was still young at the time, Kim So Hee had someone record it with a camera.

After returning home, I would play it when I had nothing to do. Enxi remembered it after seeing it and always shouted about riding an elephant.

When Gao Bin heard his daughter's request, he immediately said:

"The arrangement is just for elephants. When we find a chance, let's go to Africa and ride an elephant!"

Kim So Hee was so shocked that her eyes widened:

"Ouba, go to Africa?"

"Yes, find a good time and go to the African savannah to watch animal migrations. It's very shocking!"

"This..." Jin Suxi couldn't laugh or cry. It can't be said that Gao Bin just wanted to do it, right? It was just to make her daughter happy.

"By the way, at this year's Christmas group annual meeting, you can take Enxi with you to have a fun time. You haven't attended in the past two years because you had children, and there are rumors in the group that I am divorced." Gao Bin said suddenly.
p>

"Ah? Are there still such rumors?"

"Isn't it? So you have to take action."

"Then I have to prepare in advance. Makeup, hair, dress, and jewelry all have to be coordinated."

"Call Mincan and ask him to arrange a stylist for you."

"Okay, I also experience what it's like to be a big star."

"You don't have to experience it, you are the big star in our family."

"Oppa is still good at talking."

After dinner, the family of three went to the entertainment room and spent a night of warm family time. Gao Bin also had a rare sleep.

Again, the fear of the unknown is always greater than the pressure of reality.

After Li Fuzhen deciphered it for him, there was nothing to fear.

Although he doesn't want to confront the Avengers, that doesn't mean he's afraid.

I'm really worried. The worst case scenario is that we will fight to the death. He won't survive, and the other party won't be able to live well either!

Besides, a group of descendants of losers just rely on their ancestors to make a little money and show off their prestige, but they don't dare to start a war with the most popular small plutocrats. Do you really think that Gao Bin doesn't dare to kill people?

There may be some use for them to be alive, but if they get pissed off, the devil will take revenge on them.

That's why Gao Bin has no fear. A group of people who have lost their use value will eventually be abandoned by this society!
