The Cold War: Jumping back and forth between the two camps

The next afternoon, when Park Yoo-seong came to visit again with the mayor of Daegu, Lee Byung-chul was also surprised.

In fact, after careful consideration yesterday, he was already willing to agree to Park Yoo-seong. At least he wanted to go to Seoul with Park Yoo-seong to meet the big man behind Park Yoo-seong.

It is also because Li Bingzhe is cautious by nature and wants to see if it is true, but with the endorsement of the mayor of Daegu, the credibility has undoubtedly been greatly improved.

Through the introduction of the mayor of Daegu, Li Bingzhe also learned that Park Youcheng's family was also a very powerful businessman in the Seoul area before the war.

Things went much more smoothly afterwards, and both parties quickly reached an agreement on cooperation issues, but Li Bingzhe still wanted to meet Dunn.

After all, seeing is believing for some things.

Park Yoo-seong called Dunn immediately, and the meeting could only be held after Dunn's consent. Now Park Yoo-seong really couldn't be Dunn's family. You know, when Dunn invested in Hyundai and LG's bosses before, he didn't even meet these two bosses.

However, Dunn was very easy to talk to. After all, it would be better for a future long-term partner to meet in person. At the same time, Yao Youcheng also called the bosses of Hyundai and LG.

After getting approval, Park Yoo-seong immediately drove to Seoul with Lee Byung-chul.

When Li Bingzhe saw that during this period, Park Youcheng was able to find a team of soldiers as a protection force, he became more convinced of what Park Youcheng said.

Although the South Korean army does not have a very good reputation, it is still a war and they can draw precious military forces to protect the safety of one person. This also indirectly shows how wide the connections and power of this person are.

On the other side, Dunn also found Cui Dongjin. After all, it was the other party who first proposed this mode of cooperation, and the two sides also exchanged opinions on which businessmen should invest.

Dunn saw the first batch of businessmen that Cui Dongjin had planned to invest in, and there was not a single chaebol from later generations that Dunn was familiar with, which quite disappointed Dunn.

There are not many chaebols that will control the economic lifeline of South Korea in the future. Even if Dunn searched all over South Korea, and the psychological investigation of local agents and CIA agents in South Korea, he only found these three chaebols. In fact, the first generation leaders of the so-called Korean chaebols should also have certain abilities.

Otherwise, some mediocre small companies would not be able to grow to such a solid scale.

Don’t say that any pig standing in the wind can take off. There are many pigs standing in the wind that fail to take off.

Being able to seize opportunities is also a manifestation of ability.

However, there are quite a few overlapping candidates in the lists given by both sides. After all, there are not many influential South Korean businessmen now, only a few.

Regarding these South Korean companies whose names have never been heard of by later generations, they did not want to invest at all. However, in order to deal with Choi Dong-jin, or in other words, they also wanted to cast a wide net. What if one or two of them were the predecessors of later chaebols?

He also decided to invest some money in these unknown companies, but for most companies he would only invest about 10% of the shares at most.

Choi Dong-jin is actually in the same situation. Although they are a relatively powerful family in South Korea, the Choi family does not have that much liquid capital. Most businessmen only invest in 10% of the overall shares.

In addition to the few companies he is more optimistic about, Cui Dongjin may invest more.

"Mr. Du, why are you willing to invest in these small companies?"

Cui Dongjin pointed at the last few companies on the list given by Dunn. When asked, they were LG Hyundai and Samsung.

Dunn was also very honest in putting these three companies on the list.

Because as a local boss, no matter how secretive some of Dunn's actions are, they may not be hidden from local forces like the Cui family.

So it’s better to put it out in the open.

"It's like this. I think the bosses of these companies are smart and capable, so I decided to give them a chance. The most important thing is that our CIA really needs some people who can work for us in the future. The bosses of these companies are also the ones I want to win over. It is very likely that they will do something for our CIA in the future!"

That was all Dunn had to say. The rest was up to Choi Dong-jun to figure out on his own. He would never tell Choi Dong-jin about the future potential of these three companies.

"I see!"

Cui Dongjin nodded and stopped talking. He had already made up his mind to stay away from these small companies.

In Cui Dongjin's opinion, Dunn was probably just looking for some white gloves who could do things for him.

So it seems that these companies will not be clean in the future. As Cui Dongjin still wants to make a breakthrough in the political arena, he will never provoke such a company that colludes with foreign forces. At the same time, he will not disclose it to the outside world. After all, he still wants to have a good relationship with Dunn.

This is exactly the effect Dunn wanted.

He continued to sign contracts with Choi Dong-jin with some South Korean companies that they thought were worthy of investment. Of course, this was only on the surface. He had no expectations for these companies and only hoped not to lose money. In the future, when the war was over and the market value of these companies was a little higher, he would plan to dispose of all the shares held by these companies, leaving none behind.

Unless some of their companies can become the names of future South Korean chaebols.

Now Dunn has found three South Korean chaebols that are related to NIO. As for some other smaller chaebols such as SK and Hanwha, he is not interested in them.

It is enough to guarantee the bulk of the profits. If there is a chance in the future, these missed chaebols can invest again. If there is no chance, it doesn’t matter.

And it is very likely that they have not yet emerged in this era. Perhaps these chaebols will not emerge until after the war, so there is no need to rush.

"Mr. Du, these are some of the more powerful companies and enterprises in South Korea! You can invest more shares in them. Are you sure you don't want to buy more shares?"

Cui Dongjin saw that Dunn had acquired an average of about 10% of the shares in each company he had identified, and asked with some confusion. He really wanted to use this opportunity to get closer to Dunn. As long as he could make Dunn make more money, the relationship between the two sides would naturally become closer, so he specifically pointed out two or three South Korean companies.

"No need!"

Dunn waved it off.

"I don't have much money at the moment. At most I can only buy about 10% of the shares. And I don't know what policies your country will formulate after the war. It's better not to be greedy. Just make as much money as possible!"

Cui Dongjin felt a little embarrassed when he heard Deng En say this. To be honest, he had done something similar before. At that time, he also used relatively tough means to take back the Seoul land from Feng Enshuo.

Moreover, given the nature of his country's politicians, Cui Dongjin feels that foreign investment in local companies may be greatly restricted in the future.

There is not much to say at the moment.

After confirming the investment with Dunn, Cui Dongjin said goodbye and left.

The next day, Park Yoo-seung brought Lee Byung-chul to Seoul.

Together with the two bosses from Hyundai and LG who had been notified in advance, Park Yoo-sung took the three of them to meet Dunn.

"Three of you! If you have any questions, you can ask Mr. Du directly! But I want to remind you that Mr. Du is a CIA agent, so you should be careful when talking to him. I believe that you are all smart people, and you should have some idea of ​​what to say and what not to say!"

Before meeting Dunn, Cui Dongjin greeted the three people. After all, although the three of them were considered successful bosses before, this was probably the first time they faced CIA agents.

Park Youcheng was really afraid of being crowded. One person said something wrong and made Dunn unhappy. After all, he had first-hand communication with the three people and knew that all three of them were actually quite capable.

Li Bingzhe and the other two nodded repeatedly. In fact, before meeting Dunn, Park Youcheng had kept Dunn's identity a secret. It was not until the last minute that the three of them realized that the financial backer behind the scenes was actually a CIA agent chief.

However, when they met Dunn at the introduction of Park Youcheng, they were still surprised.

Because Dunn looks so young. You have to know that Europeans and Americans age faster than Asians, and of course mature earlier than Asians, at least that's how he looks.

But when they met Dunn for the first time, the three people clearly felt that Dunn was no more than 1 years old.

The three of them found it hard to believe that he could become the CIA's top official in South Korea at this age.

If it weren't for the temperament displayed by Dunn, which made people clearly feel the aura of a person who had been in a high position for a long time, the three people even suspected that Park Youcheng had randomly pulled a student from the United States from somewhere to deceive them.

"Three bosses! Please take a seat!"

However, as soon as Dunn started talking, the three people roughly understood why the CIA chose such a young man to be responsible for the affairs in South Korea.

Because Dunn spoke standard Korean as soon as he opened his mouth. If you closed your eyes, you would not be able to tell that it was spoken by a foreigner.

"This is the big boss behind me! Mr. Dupan Klein, the deputy director of the Far East Bureau of the CIA!"

Park Youcheng was the first to introduce Dunn's identity. The three people had only heard Park Youcheng say that Dunn was the CIA leader in charge of South Korea. Although the three people did not know the importance of the deputy director of the Far East Bureau, they could all hear that this position was not just about South Korea.

"Don't underestimate Mr. Du because he is young. He has mastered 13 foreign languages ​​and speaks them fluently. He has achieved his current position based on his own abilities!"

While introducing Dunn, Park Yoo-seung quietly flattered him.
