Chapter 30 Empty Glove White Wolf?

(PS: I suddenly discovered the big bug in yesterday’s chapter. I wrote it in a hurry and didn’t pay attention to it. It’s the protagonist’s Korean problem. After thinking about it carefully, it’s too stupid to set the protagonist’s ability to speak Korean. Every time I have to emphasize that he uses Speaking English is too verbose.

Let’s just leave it like this, the protagonist can speak Korean by default, otherwise my writing is troublesome, and everyone will be troublesome. As for the previous related plot, I will change it slowly when I have time. I apologize to everyone. This is Xiaopang’s fault. I am really sorry that many places seem immature when I write a book at one time. )

"Hershey Company?" Li Renyuan adjusted his sitting posture, put down his wine glass and confirmed to Yang Cheng.

"Hershey Company!" Yang Cheng nodded in affirmation.

"Jason, what do you mean? Acquisition?" Li Renyuan breathed a sigh of relief. Of course he knew about Hershey. Lotte and Hershey still have cooperation in country Z. Hershey is the second largest company in country Z of lotte food. shareholder.

Yang Cheng likes to see people who have never seen the world, and laughs inwardly.

However, he could also understand that Lotte's strength is much stronger than Hershey's, after all, Hershey specializes in the food business, while Lotte is a chaebol-level enterprise spanning dozens of fields.

But sometimes the status is not purely ranked by strength. For example, Michael Jackson, he has a lot of wealth in his life, but it is not an order of magnitude compared to those bosses of listed companies who control tens of billions and hundreds of billions of market value. In my heart, Michael Jackson's status and influence are dozens of blocks away from those bosses.

Similarly, Hershey's chocolate candy business has become the number one in North America, and it is almost the number one monopoly, with a market share of more than 90%. Lotte has no business that has become the number one in Asia. As the second leader of the lotte group, Li Renyuan He obviously understood this, so he was so surprised when Yang Cheng said that he wanted to buy Hershey. Besides, as far as he knew, Hershey was in good profitability and there was no risk of bankruptcy. Why would they sell it?

Li Renyuan couldn't figure it out, so he could only quietly watch Yang Cheng pretend to be 13.

"Chairman Li does not know that the Lehman family of AB InBev is currently seeking to acquire Hershey, and as far as I know, Lehman's shareholding is not low."

Li Renyuan was puzzled, "Since this is the case, why do we need to enter?"

Yang Cheng raised his hand, indicating that he hadn't finished speaking, "Chairman Li doesn't know the inside story, and the actual controlling party of Hershey Company is the Hershey Trust Committee...", slowly explaining the situation of Hershey Company, Li Renyuan He listened very carefully, some things he knew, and some things he heard for the first time.

"So at most Lehman ran a few steps ahead of us. It's far from the time to make a conclusion. It's still too late to enter. Don't forget, Hershey owns the shares of your lotte food country Z company. With Lei Man's appetite, the next step is to annex Lotte's country Z business, President Li, time is running out."

Yang Cheng drank the red wine and made a summary of his speech. Seeing that Li Renyuan was lost in thought, he picked up his chopsticks and started eating again without urging him.

Li Renyuan didn't mind, the discussion at the dinner table was just to relax and have a good atmosphere, otherwise it would be better if everyone dressed in suits and shoes went to the conference room to talk.

"Since you proposed Jason, you must have prepared a plan, right?" Li Renyuan asked this question, which means he is interested.

If you are interested, you can continue to talk, if you are afraid that he will not be tempted, then the hype he said is useless.

"Of course, the plan is ready-made, just wait for President Li to nod." Yang Cheng put down his chopsticks and looked at Li Renyuan with a smile in his eyes.

Li Renyuan pondered for a moment, and asked in confusion, "I don't understand, you Yuanshan has never been involved in the food business, and the acquisition of Hershey is not in line with the purpose of Yuanshan Capital. What is the purpose of your active cooperation with Lotte to acquire Hershey?"

Sure enough, the old fox won't take the bait easily,

Foxes are extremely cunning creatures, and they are not sure enough to put themselves in danger for their prey.

Of course, Yang Cheng didn't know if there were other reasons for this. He just guessed that now that the Xin family's infighting had reached a stage of intensification, expanding to the United States at this time and confronting a behemoth like Lehman would make it somewhat difficult. Li Renyuan has some scruples.

"Chairman Li is worrying too much. Our family has some personal conflicts with Lehman. The acquisition of Hershey mainly focuses on lotte, which does not involve the issue of interests. So far, Yuanshan has no plans to expand into the food industry. You can rest assured about this In the end, the Hershey shares held by Yuanshan will all be transferred to Lotte."

Yang Cheng only vaguely pointed out Yuan Shan's purpose, and did not specify the specific reason for the contradiction, but it was enough to dispel some of Li Renyuan's doubts.

"I can't decide on such a big matter by myself. I need to go back and discuss it with Chairman Xin. Can you give me some time?" Li Renyuan really can't make the decision. After all, lotte is a family business, and the real decision is made by Xin. Li Renyuan is A faithful executor.

Of course Yang Cheng understood and raised his red wine glass, "No problem, but I still have something to do in the United States. I will stay in Korea soon, and I hope Chairman Li will give me an answer as soon as possible. I wish us a happy cooperation."

Seeing this, Li Renyuan also raised his wine glass, touched Yang Cheng, and the crystal wine glass made a pleasant "jingle" sound, "Okay, in fact, from my personal point of view, this cooperation is beneficial to our lotte and is full of temptation , I can't find a reason to refuse, I hope we can cooperate sincerely."

After each finished the red wine in the glass, the female manager came up immediately and poured red wine for the two of them again.

"By the way, about the land in Seoul Forest, can we talk about how to develop it?" When the female manager retreated to the side again, Li Renyuan asked. Compared with Hershey Company, that land is a cornucopia. It doesn't seem to be difficult at all, and it's like giving away money for nothing. Of course, he is more interested.

Yang Cheng smiled lightly, "There is no rush for that piece of land, anyway, the land can't run away there, it can be developed anytime."

Li Renyuan's face darkened immediately, and he cursed in his heart, "Little bastard, don't be a hawk if you don't see a rabbit."

Yang Cheng sneered in his heart, "Hmph, old fox, he still wants to be a white wolf, and there is no way."

Of course, outsiders don't know the inner activities of the old and the young. In fact, the main reason for finding Lotte was to rush to the front to attract Lehman's firepower, while the Yang family sneaked behind the scenes, otherwise why would they give away money for nothing? Lotte, that piece of land is obviously making money, even if you can't eat alone, then you can't find someone to cooperate with, why do you have to be Lotte?

Li Renyuan instantly understood the twists and turns here, and secretly scolded Yang Cheng for his black belly.

But he really didn't dare to make decisions on his own. If it was in the heyday of Lotte or in peacetime, Li Renyuan would be able to make a decision directly, but not now. The Supreme Emperor, the Crown Prince, and the Second Prince are fighting for the throne. It's hard to say, if you make the decision without consulting with the Xin family, that's not a rebellion.

The dinner was coming to an end here, Yang Cheng and Li Renyuan had their own thoughts, and what they said was insincere, the atmosphere of the scene was awkward.

In the end, it was Yang Cheng who couldn't hold back anymore. He was mainly facing an old man in his fifties. There was really nothing to talk about. The two sides had no common language. He couldn't let him discuss with Li Renyuan which female star in the entertainment industry had a better figure.

After agreeing to give the answer as soon as possible, Yang Cheng took Hansen out of the clubhouse.

Generally speaking, Yang Cheng is satisfied with the first contact with Li Renyuan. Both parties have the intention of further cooperation. This is a good start, but he is not going to sit still and hand over the choice to lotte, which is too much for him Passive, after all, he can't control the other party's thoughts, if Lotte really wants to focus on going outside, Yang Cheng's plan will be completely aborted.

So he had to prepare some stimulation and motivation for Lotte, so that Lotte had to tie herself to Yang Cheng's warship.

"It's time for Park Donghae to fulfill his promise." Sitting in the back seat of the Rolls Royce, Yang Cheng muttered to himself looking at the flashing neon lights on both sides of the street.

Compared with the daytime, Seoul at night is full of people and bustling. Looking at the bustling market through the car window, the shops are lit up with dazzling lights, reflecting the whole air into mottled colors.

Seeing the couple cuddling each other on the street, Yang Cheng's inner loneliness surged up again. She took out her mobile phone and found Hannah's mobile number in the address book, and dialed it without hesitation.

"Oppa? Is that you?" Hannah asked in disbelief.

Yang Cheng loosened his tie, unbuttoned the collar of his suit, and laughed with a sigh of relief, "What? I can't call you?"

"No, no, it's just...um...some accident." Hannah hesitated for a long time, but she didn't dare to say Yang Cheng's fault.

"Hehe, okay, I was a little busy before, do you have time now? Come out and have dinner together?"

"Uh... I'm shooting a pictorial right now, and I'll be free after the shoot. Can oppa wait for me for a while? It will be ready soon." Hannah paused, although she was afraid that Yang Cheng would be angry, she still told the truth situation.

Yang Cheng's temper was not so surly, and she said understandingly, "It's okay, how about it, you send the address to my mobile phone, and I'll pick you up. When I arrive, you're almost done, right?"

"Enn, thank you oppa, I can take pictures quickly." Hannah agreed again and again, with secret joy in her voice.

After hanging up the phone and waiting for a few seconds, Hannah's message came. She showed the address to the Rolls-Royce driver and told him to go to this place. Before leaving the clubhouse, Li Renyuan sent the car to He used it, and Yang Cheng didn't refuse. It was an in-depth cooperative relationship immediately. There is no need to be hypocritical about this thing that can shorten the distance between the two parties. Besides, the Rolls-Royce Phantom is indeed more comfortable to sit than the Mercedes-Benz, at least it has enough space.

Not far from Get, the driver said that there is Samseong-dong, there are many studios, and quite a few print advertisements in Korea were born there.

The driver's skills are very good, and he arrived at the destination quickly and steadily. He got out of the car and asked someone to find out that it was indeed here, and then opened the door for Yang Cheng. Naturally, Hansen would not fight him. If Yang Cheng Cheng didn't give any special instructions. Generally, he would always keep a position 2 meters behind Yang Cheng. This position would not bother Yang Cheng. In case of an emergency, with Hansen's explosive power, he would be able to rush to Yang Cheng's side with one stride. .

Originally, he wanted to make a call to ask Hannah when she would come out, but he thought that it would not be good to interrupt her if she had not finished work. He was also a little curious about the place where the models took pictures, so he walked with his hands behind his back like the emperor in micro-clothes. into the studio.

This is a three-story red brick building. It seems to belong to a company. The first floor is set up as a reception area, but at this time the staff come and go with their heads down and busy with their own affairs. Two outsiders who arrived suddenly.

Yang Cheng didn't care, he was also happy to be quiet, looked around, followed the signs, and went to the second floor through the stairs. The decibels here rose suddenly, and the scene was noisy. The human head is a black camera, anyway, it is dark, and the heat emitted by the bright fill light turns the second floor into a sauna.

Yang Cheng, who had just stood by the side for a while, felt his back sweating, and muttered softly, "This model's job is not easy."
