Chapter 126
"Thank you, Director Li, for your concern; I slept okay."
Ding Qing bit the word "Director" relatively hard.
Li Li Zhongjiu-gu's smile stiffened, but he didn't care much; after all, Ding Qing's situation now is not very good, what's the use of being sharp-tongued? Look at me scraping a layer off you, that's it; what's there to be proud of with a broken director position.
Seok Dong-chul coughed twice, cleared his throat, and attracted some attention: "Alright, time is tight, let's talk about business."
Everyone sat upright, their eyes focused on Seok Dong-chul in the main seat.
"Calling everyone over so early today, I think you all know about what happened last night, so I won't say much here. The problem now is that all the industries and all the personnel of our Gold Gate Group in Busan have been controlled by the Heaven Alliance. So far, although our losses have not been counted, you all know the importance of Busan to our Gold Gate Group."
Seok Dong-chul sighed: "I really didn't expect that the Heaven Alliance could develop so fast while we were merging industries and had no time to take care of other things. Now they can already challenge us? Not discovering the hidden dangers in the first time, everyone here has responsibility. Although we are the strongest, this time the Heaven Alliance has also sounded the alarm for us, and everyone should be alert at all times..."
"Now our industries have been sealed, and we are losing money every minute and every second. So, today we must come up with a solution. It is still better to stop losses in time and avoid escalation of the situation. Regarding this conflict with the Heaven Alliance, Director Ding knows it best." Speaking of this, Seok Dong-chul looked at Ding Qing: "So, does Director Ding have anything to say?"
Everyone's eyes focused on Ding Qing, waiting for his explanation.
Seok Dong-chul's words were polite, but the meaning of blame was self-evident. There is no fool sitting here, because fools have long been played to death.
They all understood the meaning of Seok Dong-chul's words.
Seok Dong-chul talked a lot of useless things, which can be summarized into three points.
First, our losses are huge, and if not solved, the losses will be even greater. Second, the Heaven Alliance is very strong, and we can't do anything about it in the short term. Third, I don't want to go to war with the Heaven Alliance; the trouble was caused by Ding Qing, so let's study him together.
This is exactly what this group of people wants; regardless of whether they have communicated with each other or established an alliance, not going to war with the Heaven Alliance is a consensus. When making a fortune, everyone is the Gold Gate Group; at this moment, it is the North Gate Beida Menpai's business, and they will definitely not do it.
Still the same sentence, everyone is out here to make money. As long as they cannot crush the Heaven Alliance with thunderous momentum, the loser will only be their Gold Gate Group. And once the situation is not good, the Gold Gate Group, which has just gotten on the right track, will fall apart in an instant.
Ding Qing's approach, if you really want to talk about it, is not wrong at all. Even if they are going legitimate now, there are still many businesses that are obtained through underworld means. Blame Ding Qing for being unlucky, misestimating people's strength. Then who let you be unlucky? If you are unlucky, admit it.
Seok Dong-chul's meaning and the thoughts of these people, Ding Qing naturally understands; he thought of it yesterday.
Looking around, he said: "The cause of this time lies with me; I caused the trouble, and I will bear it alone."
Things have already happened, and Ding Qing doesn't want to say anything useless. Anyway, he will pay for it in the end; the longer it drags on, the more he will pay, so the sooner it is discussed, the better.
Seok Dong-chul nodded with satisfaction: "What does the Heaven Alliance say?"
"20 million US dollars."
Seeing him admit it, Li Li Zhongjiu-gu could not hide his smile: "What about us? You know, our people in charge there were killed, not to mention the industries sealed by them. Oh my, my entertainment city, my casino..."
Li Zicheng couldn't stand it anymore, angrily slapped the table: "Enough, just say your conditions."
"Kaesaegi... your big brother hasn't spoken yet, what are you anxious about?"
They are all mixing in society, no one is used to your bad habits; being scolded in front of so many people, Li Zicheng got up and wanted to fight.
"Enough, do you have me, the chairman, in your eyes? Calling you here today is to solve the problem, not to let you create problems." Seok Dong-chul looked at Li Li Zhongjiu-gu, who was grinning, and turned to Ding Qing, who was pulling Li Zicheng to sit down: "Director Ding, although Li Li Zhongjiu-gu speaks badly, his words are correct. This time our people in charge there were killed by the Heaven Alliance, and the industries were also sealed. This loss really needs an explanation, to give everyone an account, what do you think?"
Ding Qing nodded: "The chairman is right, but what Li Zicheng just said is what I want to say; let everyone put forward their conditions first, and then we will discuss."
Negotiation is a game between two sides; there is a saying that whoever quotes first dies. The party paying the money quotes first, so what he says must be a low price that is unlikely to be accepted, but through this low price, the lower limit can be roughly judged. Conversely, the upper limit will be judged. Then if one party speaks first, the other party will raise or lower expectations based on this to obtain maximum benefits.
Without a clear game, we have all heard this sentence: I should have quoted more...
Of course, all this is based on the premise that it can be negotiated.
Those that cannot be negotiated, just like the Heaven Alliance. Say 20 million, then it's 20 million, not even a cent less. If not given, then fight, talk about your mother's talk.
Interests are one's own, and no one will be polite at this time. The conference room was in a mess, rolling up sleeves and fighting like a fire.
Busan Town Police Station.
The police here also received the news that last night Heaven Alliance Chairman Park Zhengyi was shot and died on the spot, and the big brother behind the scenes was also shot in his home. That night, five thousand people from the Heaven Alliance were dispatched, directly sealing all the industries of the Gold Gate Group in Busan.
This is not something Wang Yan can control; after all, there are so many people, and the movement is so big, it is easy to inquire about what happened. What's more, the people from the Heaven Alliance were like crazy, directly killing to various industries of the Gold Gate Group, driving away all the guests, closing the door, and eating, drinking, and playing inside.
In the conference room, the chief and two section chiefs and the confidants they brought together discussed the impact of this incident.
The chief frowned and said: "Although no accurate news has been received, judging from the current situation, Wang Yan should not be dead."
"Indeed, Wang Yan is not dead, which has no impact on the Heaven Alliance at all. That Park Zhengyi was just pushed up by him, and he can change someone to be the chairman at any time; the real master is still Wang Yan." Section Chief Cui sighed: "It seems that this Gold Gate Group is also famous in name only; the momentum of the merger of the three major gangs is so big, but they can't even solve a gang that has only been established for half a year."
These words, that damn original three major gangs fought today and tomorrow in Busan, and didn't see you catch their big brother. Section Chief Jin rolled his eyes and ignored this idiot.
Scanning the two, the chief asked: "How is your operation? Is there any progress?"
Section Chief Jin looked at Section Chief Cui, and seeing that he had no movement, said: "No major progress; my subordinates have only one person who stood out and reached level three in the merger battle in Busan in the past few months."
The assessment standard of the Heaven Alliance is not a secret; level three is a small leader, and there are already more than ten people under his command. The chief knows all this, nodded, and turned to look at Section Chief Cui on the other side.
Seeing the chief looking over, Section Chief Cui opened his mouth and said: "Chief, you know the assessment standard of the Heaven Alliance. I am the same as Section Chief Jin, the highest is level three."
He definitely can't be longer than Section Chief Jin; this is why he didn't speak first. In fact, the highest level under his command is only level two. It's just that he heard that he was going to be upgraded when they met two days ago. Anyway, he knows the situation of the undercover agent, and he is not afraid of others checking. As long as it is not too absurd, it is what he says.
"Keep an eye on the Heaven Alliance and the Gold Gate Group recently, and see how they will develop later. The chairman was shot and killed, and Wang Yan was shot; it's not three lives, and sealing an industry can solve it. Report if there is any situation at any time, that's it."
The chief announced the adjournment, and the two section chiefs took their subordinates to get busy.
In fact, the appearance of the Heaven Alliance has made their police work much less. After all, those mixing on the street are all people from the Heaven Alliance, and others don't even dare to be publicized by the Gold Gate Group, let alone a group of little punks who are nothing. Their police dispatch frequency has dropped sharply recently, and there are only some small civil disputes, and there are very few other fights and provocations.
But correspondingly, this also increased their work difficulty. There are no cases in the jurisdiction, how can they as police show their performance? How to get promoted? No way, so they can only put more energy into the Heaven Alliance's affairs.
Wang Yan of course knows this situation, but he doesn't care much. It's just that the Heaven Alliance is in the limelight, and there is no clear attitude towards other little punks. No one dares to make trouble, just afraid of getting into trouble.
After a while, people will adapt, and the monsters and ghosts will come out, and the police will have something to do. He is not a saint, and here is not like Hong Kong, what does the happiness of ordinary people have to do with him? Whatever.
Just as those police discussed, whether Park Zhengyi dies or not has no impact on the overall situation.
Killing one or two people has no impact on Wang Yan, and people dying in the house has no impact on him; for Wang the person who has thousands of lives in his hands, this is no big deal.
After Wang Yan had a good dream, he didn't even go to the headquarters building of the Heaven Alliance, but sent a younger brother around him to notify a series of appointments. He promoted a deputy chairman named Zhang Dongrui, and the group of people below lined up to upgrade in turn. There was no ripple at all, as smooth as it could be.
"What are you two doing here with me?"
It was too late yesterday, and Zhang Guangshan and Li Quan slept in the guest room here at Wang Yan's. It's just that breakfast has been eaten, and the two of them have no intention of leaving at all, lying on the sofa, watching TV from time to time, mainly holding the erotic magazines bought by subordinates and reading with great interest, their smelly feet swinging back and forth.
"Isn't it an extraordinary period now? We can't relax our vigilance. If I were a Gold Gate Group person, I would come again today for a bright kill."
Li Quan took away the magazine to reveal half of his face, proudly raising his eyebrows at Wang Yan.
Zhang Guangshan was snatched first, glanced at Li Quan, and opened his mouth to greet him without making a sound.
These two fools, Wang Yan laughed and shook his head.
This situation is possible, it's normal thinking anyway. But those who can get ahead are not gamblers. Those who like to take risks, without the protection of God, most have already gone astray, and there are not many lucky ones. It is the norm to not hit with one blow, flee thousands of miles away, and patiently look for flaws to attack again.
He is confident in his combat effectiveness and is not afraid of others taking risks.
"You don't need to, six came yesterday and I finished them all off, it's fine if there are more. You two, go and run your entertainment company. Wait another year or two, our strength will be stronger, and you can pick whatever you see on TV. And after a while, I plan to send you two abroad to develop our forces."
The focus of the two blockheads is very simple, the first is that the big brother said there is no need for protection, his strength is enough. The second is, "pick whatever you see on TV."
Zhang Guangshan thought about it, and what Wang Yan said was indeed reasonable. After all, he knew Wang Yan's strength, and thought for a while and said: "Brother Yan, can you really pick whatever you see on TV?"
"When have I lied to you two? I said I would take Busan in half a year before, didn't I take it now? I shouted about playing with guns before, now are you tired of shooting?"
Wang Yan had already set up a shooting range, a legal one. As for whether the guns inside are legal, that's another matter. At first, the two of them were fresh, and they lived in the shooting range every day, shooting guns one after another, and they were tired of it long ago.
Just right, at this time, the opening song of the TV series rang on the TV. Zhang Guangshan and Li Quan looked at each other and silently turned their heads to look at the TV.
Li Quan said: "Brother Yan, do you think she is okay?"
Wang Yan turned his head to look at the TV; he had heard that song, it was originally in every alley, the popular "Destiny," and the TV series goes without saying, "Full House." And what Zhang Guangshan and Li Quan were watching was its protagonist, Song Hye-kyo.
"No problem, by that time, these are all small things."
In fact, it would be easy if he was willing to spend money now, but he is not an idiot. It is when Song Hye-kyo is popular now, and the price is different. And his status is also a bit worse, and it is a bit difficult to talk to entertainment giants. Besides, he doesn't like Song Hye-kyo like that; mainly the temperament is not right. By comparison, he likes Kim Tae-hee more...
Getting an affirmative answer, without even looking at Wang Yan, the two blockheads put on their shoes and left without saying a word.
Outside, Zhang Guangshan said: "Look, I said Brother Yan doesn't need us two to protect him."
Li Quan looked at him angrily: "Then tell me if we have any benefits."
"You're right, but I didn't think there was any hope before, and I didn't have any ideas. Now you say... my heart is itching..."
"Let's go relax first; aren't the Gold Gate Group's industries all sealed by us now? Go pick two?"
"Go..."
After walking a few steps, Li Quan suddenly stopped, frowned and said: "Wait, did Brother Yan say he wanted to send us two abroad just now?"
Zhang Guangshan thought seriously: "It seems there is such a thing... Hey, why do you care about that, let's talk about it then, anyway Brother Yan won't treat our brothers badly."
"Also... then let's go, it's uncomfortable to be held back."
In the afternoon, when Wang Yan was wandering around with his subordinates looking at villas, he received a text message from Ding Qing.
Not a word of nonsense, just a string of account numbers and passwords, which is an anonymous account.
After making a phone call to confirm the account balance, he let his subordinates withdraw.
Wang Yan doesn't know how much Ding Qing paid to settle the matter, but it's definitely not something 20 million can settle. The blow to his strength this time is not fatal, but it is ruthless enough. The South Korean market is only so big, and smuggling is indeed a huge profit, but the income is not as big as imagined. And in this regard, the largest dealer in South Korea is the US military base.
The other industries of the North Gate Beida Menpai are not picking up money, and they also need investment. As a result, the North Gate Beida Menpai must be very quiet recently. Then the Heaven Alliance will expand outward again, mainly fighting with the Tiger Faction, which is another good opportunity for development.
Originally, Wang Yan thought about controlling the Gold Gate Group through Ding Qing; this time Ding Qing was not sensible, so he had to change a plan.
Looking at the boundless ocean in the distance on the top of the mountain, Wang Yan pondered the development plan.
"Are there many people in the Heaven Alliance who know you two?"
Standing two meters away on the left and right, two young men in black suits and black leather shoes patrolled back and forth vigilantly. Hearing Wang Yan's question, the two looked at each other, and one of them raised his head to signal.
The other nodded to show he understood, and walked to Wang Yan's side: "Big Brother, we two were the first batch to enter the Heaven Alliance besides the entertainment street. Not long after, we two came to follow you. You have always lived in seclusion, so only our original big brother and those other subordinates know us."
Wang Yan turned around, stretched his arms and leaned on the railing, feeling the salty and damp sea breeze, and looked faintly at the nervous young man: "It's okay, I'm just asking, you don't have to be nervous. You come over too."
The person standing in the distance ran over and bowed: "Big Brother."
With a hum, Wang Yan stared at the two and said: "Do you want to be a big brother?"
As soon as this was said, the two were so scared that their faces turned pale, and one of them said tremblingly: "Big... Big Brother, we... we two are absolutely... absolutely loyal..."
Wang Yan laughed, to ease their tension: "I don't doubt your loyalty, I have something for you to do."
【Stable novel app that has been running for many years, comparable to the old version of the source-changing app that everyone is using, huanyuanapp.】
Taking a long breath, the two said in unison: "Big Brother, please instruct."
"Let's talk when we go back, you two think about who knows you, and make a list for me later." Looking at the sightseeing car in the distance, Wang Yan stood up straight and clapped his hands: "Let's go, the procedures should be handled."
The two behind looked at each other and hurriedly followed Wang Yan in front.
After getting the money, Wang Yan bought the house, and let others invest the rest in the group's business. This money came from nothing, outside the plan, just in time to change to a new house in one step.
The villa is second-hand, the decoration is quite good, and he has nothing to pick. Buying this mountain is for the sea that can be seen at a glance. And the first-hand villa is not decorated, and it will take a year to decorate it casually, which is too laborious.
