"Xiba, I thought Li Chenghao was no longer his opponent, but now it seems we can't rest assured."
Just then, Son Kyung-sik called, and the moment the call was answered, there was a full-blown curse.
Li Shanhao threw the phone aside impatiently. Li Zaixian scolded him, but why did Sun Kyung-sik scold him?
Although Son Kyung-sik played an important role in the establishment of CJ Group and was a very powerful elder in the family, in Li Shanhao's heart, CJ Group's surname was Li, not Sun.
I have never treated Son Kyung-sik as a family member.
He knew that his rise to power was inseparable from Son Kyung-sik's support. It seemed that Son Kyung-sik was listening behind the curtain and managing Lee Sun-ho, but in fact it was Lee Sun-ho who was using Son Kyung-sik.
"Shanhao, if you want to secure your position as chairman, you must get the shares from your father. The company's shareholders may betray you at any time. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
"I understand, I'm trying my best."
"It's not just hard work. Why did your phone turn off after you returned to Hannam-dong last night? If I can't contact you in the future, I won't continue to support you."
Threat?
Li Shanhao quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I was upset last night so I wanted to take a break."

Seongbukdong Villa
Li Chenghao sat in the car waiting for iu.
Iu came out with his lunch box and got into the driver's seat.
“Love lunch?”
Iu nodded: "Bingo, you can eat the food I prepared for lunch today, and drink less wine in the evening."
Li Chenghao told iu that he was going to have dinner with Chairman Jin of Rongguang Construction tonight, and also told iu that he didn't need to worry too much about himself after understanding his schedule.
Send the person to Incheon International Airport.
The bodyguards and Han Ji-eun were waiting to receive IU at the door. A group of eight people formed a very special lineup for this business trip.
She will stay for about a week this time, and she has attracted media attention since her trip. The two largest news agencies even sent reporters to follow up on IU's trip to Africa.
This is a new chapter in the history of Country H’s charity industry. The exclusive news is obviously very interesting. Many media also made up headlines, claiming that IU’s trip was charity diplomacy to enhance Country H’s international image.
Some people are happy, some are supportive, and of course some are worried.
The Blue House's attitude toward IU's trip was ambiguous. The main reason was that he only learned about the whole thing through the news. Logically speaking, Sunward Capital Charity Foundation should have informed him of the trip plan in advance.
In this way, there may be other arrangements at the Blue House that should be arranged in advance. Now I know that although it is not too late, it is already too late to arrange some things in advance.
Instruct the embassy in Africa to pick you up at the airport and coordinate all activities of the iu trip.
Finally, the old man called Li Chenghao on his personal phone.
"President Li, congratulations."
Li Chenghao heard the old man's dissatisfaction and explained: "I'm sorry, old man, I was negligent. The recent changes in the CJ Group have left me a little at a loss."
When the CJ Group was mentioned, the old man felt relieved: "I just wanted to ask you what your plans are."
"The affairs of CJ Group are a bit complicated, and there is currently a strong voice of support for Lee Sun-ho within the company."
"Do you want to give up?"
"Planning in progress."
Li Chenghao didn't say give up. Once he said he would give up, the old man would probably arrange some actions against the CJ Group. Even Li Chenghao suspected that the Seven Star Gang had been following the old man's orders from the beginning to the end.
In the struggle at the top, the most important thing is what kind of card you have in your hand. Although the card of CJ Group is not the most critical card, the old man will never allow this card to be entered into the opponent's hand.
The problem is
Li Chenghao couldn't figure out one thing. If the Seven Star Gang really obeyed the old man's orders, what was the reason for supporting Director Yin in the first place.
spy?
The biggest bomb planted in the opponent's camp in advance?
Director Yin is not a fool. Even if a bomb is planted, he will be guarded. If it is not guarded, it means that the bomb will never explode, but will threaten the person who originally planted it.
perhaps
The old man also knew that he was going to come into contact with the Yutai faction, and there were no other suspicious people around him except the bodyguards.
Monitor? Monitor?
If we meet tonight, if the old man knows everything, then there may really be surveillance.
evening
Yunyan Terrace
Li Chenghao met Chairman Kim Yutae of the Yutae Sect.
He and Lee Kang-hwan have two different styles. Kim Yu-tae has a flamboyant personality and speaks very directly.
After saying hello and sitting down, he directly asked Li Chenghao the purpose of meeting him.
"cooperate"
Jin Yutae looked disdainful: "Cooperation? As far as I know, aren't President Li and Lee Kang-hwan cooperating?"
On the road, it is not a secret that Li Chenghao cooperates with the Seven Star Gang.
Li Chenghao responded calmly: "Is there a rule that I can only cooperate with the Seven Star Gang?"
Jin Yutai was stunned for a moment: "Interesting, give me a reason to cooperate."
Li Chenghao grasped the other party's character and went straight to the point: "Become the largest real estate developer in country H and cannibalize the Seven Star Gang's industry."
"Haha, young man, the Seven Star Gang is not someone you can deal with if you want. Who do you think you are?"
Li Chenghao also laughed: "Is President Jin scared now?"
"Afraid? You didn't know where you were when I came out to hang out."
"Daegu Dongseong Road sent Oh Dae-won, Suwon sent Choi Jang-soo, and the car dealership sent Kim Hyang-seok. These three companies are competing with Chairman Kim to develop the new urban area around Seoul. I happen to be cooperating in the construction project of the new urban area. This reason is acceptable.
?”
Jin Yutai was silent.
Thinking about the pros and cons in my mind.
Originally, he wanted to use some means against the other three companies, but a problem he encountered was that even if the other three companies withdrew from the competition, it would not work if a consortium intervened.
Loyalty to the consortium was something he had to accept, but he had never considered Li Chenghao.
In the final analysis, first, Sunward Capital is not a consortium, not even CJ Group. Second, Li Chenghao is too young. What means does he have to deal with the problems that arise later.
"President Jin can give it a try first. I can guarantee that the people around you will not be taken away by the prosecutors."
There is no need to go into too much detail about these things, just mention that he can help Jin Yutai solve the problem.
"What do I have to give?"
Li Chenghao's answer to Kim Yutae was: "President Kim does not need to pay anything. He only needs to be determined to face the Seven Star Gang head-on and not betray me halfway."
Stare into Li Chenghao's eyes.
When Jin Yutai saw that the other party did not give in at all, he was really surprised that this young man was much more courageous than he thought.
You will know if you are bragging or not. He laughed loudly. Jin Yutai picked up the wine bottle and poured Li Chenghao a glass of wine. He said happily: "Then give it a try."
Li Chenghao also poured a glass for Jin Yutai: "Then try it."
