These three little monsters had become Su Yang’s most important companions. Now that they were in an unfamiliar place like Korea, Su Yang naturally had to be prepared.

The only difference was that Little Deeny and Zhao Licheng entered the country legally while the Clown Sea Serpent was still waiting for Su Yang to summon him.

Other than Little Deeny and Zhao Licheng, Su Yang also brought a few Imperial Shark Guards with him. He was now a world-class tycoon, and he needed to show off a little.

They split into two cars. Su Yang, Little Deeny, and Zhao Licheng sat in the front car while the sharks followed behind.

Su Yang got into the car and closed his eyes to rest in the backseat. Little Deeny was beside him while Zhao Licheng was chatting with the chauffeur.

Listening to Zhao Licheng’s fluent Korean, Su Yang felt that he was indeed a five-star talent and was surprised unknowingly.

The car drove steadily and soon reached the highway.

However, just as they were about to reach the highway, the driver suddenly braked and stopped.

Su Yang, who was resting with his eyes closed, almost jumped out of the car. Little Deeny quickly held Su Yang and asked in concern, “Mas… Mr. Su, are you alright?”

Su Yang opened his eyes and waved her off. “I’m fine.”

Then, he asked Zhao Licheng, “What’s going on in front?”

Zhao Licheng was conversing with the chauffeur. When he saw Su Yang asking about it, he turned around and said, “Mr. Su, the highway has been blocked and no vehicles are to pass for the time being. All vehicles have been asked to shift to the side.”

“Hmm?” Su Yang replied. “Why?”

Zhao Licheng exchanged a few more words with the driver in Korean. Then, he said, “I think some important person is passing through here.”

When Su Yang heard that, his heart skipped a beat. ‘Could it be that everything’s going so smoothly this time and I’m going to meet the person I’m planning to meet?’

With that thought in mind, Su Yang did not get angry because he was stopped. Instead, he waited patiently. Since Su Yang did not react, the rest did not say anything.

Little Deeny stayed quietly beside Su Yang, her eyes shining with a blue light as she observed the surroundings. The Clown Sea Serpent had already received the news from the virtual space, so he brought the sharks out of the car and stood guard.

After a while, all the cars dispersed, and two cars drove over from afar. The two cars were all black, and they looked very imposing. However, the car logo looked very strange. It was a circular shape that he did not recognize.

Su Yang asked curiously, “What car is this?”

Little Deeny answered almost instantly, “Samsung.

“Mr. Su, that’s Samsung’s car logo.”

After listening to Little Deeny’s explanation, Su Yang nodded his head silently. He was a little disappointed. Obviously, this was not the person he wanted to meet.

He looked away and prepared to drive.

As Su Yang was speaking, the window of the most luxurious car in the middle of the convoy rolled down slowly. A slightly handsome man looked over.

The driver quickly lowered his head.

Su Yang was sensitive enough to sense that gaze, so she raised her head to look at him.

Their eyes met, and time seemed to stop.

A moment later, the man furrowed his brows and retracted his gaze. The car window rolled up slowly, blocking Su Yang’s view.

After the convoy passed by and the vehicles started moving again, Su Yang said calmly, “Samsung is really powerful. So what I’ve heard about Korea being Samsung’s country is true.”

Little Deeny nodded and said, “Yes, Master. If you didn’t know about this, you’d think it was the president of the country driving past.”

Su Yang smiled. “By the way, who was that person?”

Little Deeny said, “Lee Jaerong, the current president of Samsung’s son, who’s also the true leader of Samsung.

“He is the only son of the Lees, and is a domineering man, but does things steadily. A few years ago, after Samsung’s president had a heart attack, he gradually stepped back and handed over the entire empire to him. He did not disappoint the masses and shouldered the huge corporation in his father’s stead.

“Unlike his father, who has bought a Porsche and a Mercedes-Benz out of his love for cars, his interests in them are average, so he uses Samsung’s company car when he travels. This garnered him more support from the board of directors. They believe that he has the ability to lead Samsung to grow again.”

Su Yang smiled. “What does taking Samsung’s car have to do with bringing Samsung to greater heights? I really don’t understand.

“But… Is Samsung planning to swallow the whole of Korea?”

The rest of the journey went on as Su Yang and Little Deeny chatted.

Soon, Su Yang arrived at the hotel that TTK had booked for him. When he arrived at the hotel, Su Yang raised his head to take a look. There were a few large English words written on the top of the hotel that was dozens of floors high: The Shilla.

The Shilla?

Su Yang repeated the name before walking in.

There was a doorman at the hotel waiting for them outside. When they walked in, TTK’s vice-president came to welcome them. The vice-president brought Su Yang to check in while introducing the hotel.

The hotel was called Seoul’s Shilla Hotel. It was opened in 1979 and was a five-star hotel owned by Samsung Group. It was also one of the best hotels in South Korea. Not only would the celebrities in South Korea choose this hotel, but even the CEOs of other countries would stay here.

“It’s Samsung again…” Su Yang muttered softly. Then, he could not help but sigh. ‘No wonder the people of Korea said that the three things that they could never leave out of their lives were death, taxes, and Samsung.

‘Samsung’s property is literally everywhere.

‘A corporation has an economic share of more than 20% of the country. That’s seriously terrifying.

‘Because this 20% is never as simple as it seems. It could be 60%, or more than 70%.

‘It probably wouldn’t be difficult for this company to topple the country.’

Even though he felt that Samsung was becoming more dangerous, Su Yang did not reveal everything. Instead, he followed TTK’s vice president upstairs quietly.

The room that was reserved for Su Yang was, of course, the best presidential suite. To entertain Su Yang, who was a world-class tycoon, TTK had put in a lot of effort.

Su Yang asked Little Deeny and the rest to tidy up the room while he chatted with Zhao Licheng.

The content of the conversation was nothing special. It was just asking about the company’s situation and the current business content. It was like simple research.

At the end of the conversation, Su Yang asked about the relationship between the software and Korea. He asked if there were any regulations or difficulties.

Perhaps because of the different national conditions, TTK was not restricted much. After all, Korea was a capitalist country, and everything followed the principle of freedom. As long as there were no laws and regulations, the relevant departments would not interfere.

In fact, because TTK was involved in the field of speech, social interaction, the bosses of certain departments took the initiative to build a good relationship with TTK.

After all, if a capitalist country wanted to be a big boss, they had to go through an election, and social interaction represented the influence and control of public opinion. Therefore, it was normal for big bosses to take the initiative to build good relations.

After knowing this, Su Yang became more confident about his plan.

Compared to China, this system obviously had a huge drawback, because it would easily turn the leader of the country into a show.

Especially when this kind of show needed money. Without money, there was no way to promote it. Without publicity, how could you make a show and get support?

That is why these countries’ leaders are vulnerable to capital abduction.

It was precisely because they were capitally kidnapped that they were pushed to the front desk, so they had to repay the capital.

Therefore, the chosen ones could only continue to formulate policies that were beneficial to capital, making it stronger. The stronger the capital, the deeper the kidnapping of the country, and the greater the influence of the country.

It was not that he had not been pushed to the front desk by the capital, but if he wanted to break the contract, he had to target the capital.

However, in a country like this, going against the capital was akin to courting death. All the public opinions would be against you, and everything you did would be difficult. If you revealed a single flaw, you would fall into hell.

In fact, even if you did not reveal any flaws, after a few years, without the support of capital, you would still be abandoned and would no longer be able to stand on stage.

Therefore, this was a dead end.

It was also a fate that the management of Korea could not escape.

But…

Based on Su Yang, Zhao Licheng, and the Clown Sea Serpent’s analysis, they realized that this was not an unresolvable knot. It was not an impossible fate.

Opening this dead knot required two opportunities.

Firstly, there were enough powerful forces from the outside world to protect them. This allowed the country’s management to have something to rely on to fall out with them. They were not afraid of getting revenge.

Secondly, there was someone who dared to fall out with them. If it was just a fence sitter or someone who was not ruthless, then it was almost impossible to defeat the corporation that controlled the country.

A sum of money and a threat might cause such a person to change his stance.

The first opportunity was with Su Yang. After the development in Central Asia, Su Yang’s current strength and reliance were already comparable to those tycoons.

And the second opportunity…

Had arrived a long time ago…

…

At the same time, the crown prince of Seoul. The true leader, Lee Jaerong, was sitting on the sofa listening to his subordinate’s report.

“Hmm, have you actually found out already? The person I saw this afternoon is indeed Su Yang?”

His subordinate stood in front of him and bowed respectfully. “Yes, I’m sure. It’s Su Yang. I heard that he came to Korea for TTK. Not long ago, Tencent sold TTK’s shares to Jiadian Group.”

“As the main focus of Jiadian Group’s overseas strategy, he brought the chairman of the company to visit Korea personally.”

Lee Jaerong leaned against the sofa, and her eyes flickered in the darkness.

He recalled his experience from Japan.

After he got off the plane, he returned to his home as usual.

However, when he passed by the highway, he saw a row of cars parked by the side of the road. There were also some burly men scattered around the cars.

‘That man was no ordinary person.

‘He looked like someone who had seen blood before, and had a fierce look on his face.’

This caught his attention. Having never met such a spectacle in Korea, he rolled down the window to see who it was.

Then, Su Yang’s eyes met his.

With a single glance, he recognized Su Yang.

After all, during this period of time, Su Yang was like a rising star in the world. Su Yang’s information was already all over her desk.

One of the reasons why he went to Japan was to gather more information about Su Yang.

Hence, the moment Lee Jaerong saw Su Yang, he was on his guard, and that was why he ordered his subordinates to look into Su Yang’s matters…
