In the taxi, Jia Cunrui and others accidentally understood why they and others were suddenly detained due to the Korean driver's fluent English explanation.
It turns out that in the past two years, South Korea was on the verge of bankruptcy due to the financial crisis, and the Korean won exchange rate fell and depreciated. Although the situation has improved recently, it still has not escaped the shadow of government debt.
Under such circumstances, out of nowhere, patriotic citizens, in order to prevent the Korean won from continuing to depreciate, began to use their own gold jewelry and other valuables in Korean won, and under the exaggeration of media reporters, a trend of
The trend of exchanging gold for won.
Similar incidents are happening all over the country, causing international public opinion reports.
Under such circumstances, there has been a wave of foreigners coming to South Korea with currency, frantically purchasing gold, and then smuggling these large purchases of gold out of the country through shipping smuggling.
Therefore, when international buyers who bring a large amount of cash or have a certain identity and background enter South Korea, they will be subject to a certain degree of random inspection by the customs.
Jia Cunrui is not rich, but Hanhai Studio became famous because of "The King of Masked Singer", and the news that "The Blind Monk is the Blue Lotus Sword Immortal Li Qing" is also very popular in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and this kind of popularity
Expansion will directly cause a chain reaction...
As one of the four economic tigers in Asia, Hong Kong is particularly developed in cultural exports. Although the film and television industry has gradually declined in recent years, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. In the era when the Korean entertainment industry has not yet risen, Hong Kong's entertainment industry has a great impact on Asia.
The influence of various regions is still terrifying.
Koreans are sometimes more crazy about Hong Kong entertainment stars than mainlanders.
The Green Lotus Sword Fairy, which has been mentioned frequently by Hong Kong people in the past year, has naturally also spread to the ears of some Koreans.
The cassette tapes released by Li Qing in Hong Kong have also successfully entered South Korea before.
Although he is not as good as local indigenous singers due to the language barrier, among many foreign singers, Li Qing's cassette sales in South Korea are still ranked among the top ten.
For a newcomer, this record is impressive.
After the identity of the blind monk in "The King of Masked Singer" was recently exposed, many Korean media also reported on this matter, letting them know that Li Qing's net worth has already exceeded tens of millions, or even tens of millions.
The net worth of tens of millions of yuan has exceeded one billion won in this era of continuous depreciation of the Korean won...
Assets worth more than one billion Korean won, once invaded South Korea, were all purchased into gold and successfully smuggled out.
So, this is definitely an indelible disaster for South Korea, which is now on the verge of bankruptcy...
Therefore, when they learned that Jia Cunrui and others were from the opposite continent and were affiliated with Hanhai Studio, which produced "The Masked Singer", the customs immediately became vigilant.
How much gold is one billion Korean won?
Unimaginable.
In such a special period, South Korea naturally does not dare to take it lightly.
Because similar smuggling had occurred many times, the customs detained Jia Cunrui and others without saying a word.
No matter how angry they were, the protests were ignored at all, and they did not take a stand until their true purpose was confirmed.
When Jia Cunrui and others arrived at the F1 Game Company, there were already two F1 employees waiting at the bottom of this four-story office building that stood tall in the city of Seoul.
After seeing Jia Cunrui and others, he quickly came to them and chatted enthusiastically, with a very polite attitude.
Jia Cunrui and others looked at each other and asked in English: "Is this F1?"
The two staff members were instantly dumbfounded.
After understanding that the other party did not understand Korean, he said directly in rolled English: "Yes, yes, welcome to Korea. I heard that you are here to represent the game "Legend". Oh, am I right?"
Jia Cunrui was dazzled by the Korean English with a strong accent in this place, and it took him a while to figure out what the other party meant.
He could also imagine that when he and others were detained, in order to verify his statement, the customs must have communicated with the F1 company, so he went straight to the point and said: "Take me to see your boss."
The president of F1 company is a fat man with a mustache, about 1.6 meters tall. When he saw Jia Cunrui, he was very enthusiastic and spoke relatively fluent English: "I guess you must be Anzai
Hyuk’s friend, right? I’m the president of F1, and my name is Kim Sang-sik.”
With that said, Jin Xiangzhi handed Jia Cunrui a business card with both hands.
Ahn Jae Hyuk?
Jia Cunrui chuckled, then lowered his head and looked... It was all Han!
He suddenly smiled bitterly, cleared his throat, and introduced himself: "I am the specialist of the External Procurement and Supply Department of China Hanhai Chemical Co., Ltd., my name is Jia Cunrui, and these two are my assistants."
The two assistants who followed Jia Cunrui smiled.
In fact, there is no external purchasing department anywhere. People like them are completely transferred on a temporary basis for business trips.
However, for the sake of face, the two of them could only watch Jia Cunrui open her eyes and tell lies quietly.
"Yes, I know, you are the team that produced "The King of Masked Singer", and your boss is Qinglian Sword Fairy." Kim Sang-sik said excitedly.
Jia Cunrui laughed when he heard this.
Yes, it seems that he is another fan of the boss.
As expected, next, Kim Sang-sik said enthusiastically: "I admire Qinglian Sword Fairy very much. His imagination is unparalleled. I am a loyal fan of "Xun Qin Ji"..."
After introducing each other, Jia Cunrui and others were invited to visit the F1 company.
This company is very small, even smaller than the working environment of Hanhai Studio. There are only more than a hundred employees, and most of them are technical geeks who wear glasses. There are very few female employees.
In South Korea, F1 can be considered an emerging company and is considered strong in the industry.
However, due to the financial crisis, their ability to survive is now very weak, and they all seem to be counting on overseas business to revitalize the economy.
After some conversation, Jia Cunrui learned that after being kicked by his boss, the so-called F1 company director representative Ahn Jae Hyuk did not seem to have any plans to return to China, and was still staying in mainland China looking for various games from the company.
of agents.
Jia Cunrui didn't say a word and directly stated his purpose of coming.
Kim Sang-sik was very hesitant.
If the Chinese people can come all the way to South Korea and ask by name to represent "Legend", "Legend" will definitely have a high value and market in mainland China.
Even though this game can only be regarded as a second-rate game in South Korea.
What makes Kim Sang-sik hesitant is that Ahn Jae-hyuk, who is on a business trip to the mainland, doesn't know why there has been no progress?
Is it true that during this period, not even a single game was represented?
This made Kim Sang-sik suspicious.
Despite this, when Jia Cunrui quoted 50,000, 100,000, 200,000... or even 200,000, Jin Xiangzhi's legs began to tremble a little. He only felt short of breath and his brain was severely deprived of oxygen.
Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars!
You're just representing a game, and you're representing it in an overseas country, and you're paying such a high price?
This price is absolutely sky-high for F1 Company, and it can allow F1 Company to quickly overcome the financial crisis.
Faced with this kind of violence, Kim Sang-sik said that he could hardly bear it anymore.
He stood up with difficulty and decided to convene the council to discuss it.
In the end, the twelve members of the board of directors jointly voted 7:3.
One of the directors abstained from voting, and one director, An Jae Hyuk, was not present.
As a result, Kim Sang-sik finally lost the permanent exclusive agency rights of "Legend" in China for US$300,000 after negotiating with Jia Cunrui.
What he didn't know was that this decision would make him regret it for most of his life in the future——
