CHAPTER 958: CHAPTER 520: THE TYCOON IS AWESOME, WITNESS THE WARLORD_2
One by one, the closed restroom doors were kicked open by Situang. In the last stall, a rotund, pot-bellied policeman was hiding. He was precisely the target Situang was searching for.
"Boss Xi Tu, he is Guangzhou Police Chief Park Dong Hyun."
Jin Changming hurriedly identified the man, even as he was still somewhat incredulous at seeing Park Dong Hyun with his own eyes.
To have forcefully broken into the main headquarters, fought his way up, and captured the Guangzhou Police Chief alive was beyond his wildest dreams.
Situang dragged the man by the collar, pulling Park Dong Hyun, the Guangzhou Police Chief, out of the stall.
"Asiba, you stupid kid, what do you want? I am the Guangzhou Police Chief. If you touch me, you’re finished."
Park Dong Hyun struggled continuously, his face filled with fear and panic.
His mind raced, trying to remember when he had provoked such a powerful individual who would storm the police headquarters to get to him.
But no matter how he racked his brain, he couldn’t figure out where things went wrong. Such a crazed desperado, he would never dare provoke!
"Park Dong Hyun, right? Who gave you the order to target and attack the Luo Nan Sect, to destroy the goods in the Luo Nan Sect’s warehouse?"
Situang squatted down, pulling out a knife strapped to his calf. The bright, cold blade reflected Situang’s indifferent, icy eyes, chilling Park Dong Hyun to his core.
"You... are you with the Jieke Group?"
Park Dong Hyun seemed to comprehend something, guessing Situang’s background.
His eyes filled with terror; he finally understood who he offended, and his fat body began to tremble.
Swish!
The knife in Situang’s hand sliced through Park Dong Hyun’s palm, severing two fingers.
"I’m the one asking questions. Answer them."
Park Dong Hyun let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered, having no willpower at all, not even as much as the crime boss of the Yutai Sect. Before Situang could continue, he cried out: "It’s the Li family, the Li family ordered me to do it. It has nothing to do with me, I didn’t want to provoke your Jieke Group!"
"Li family, which Li family?"
Situang frowned, raising the knife again.
Jin Changming behind him heard ’Li family’ and his expression changed slightly, blurting out, "Li family, is it the Samsung Group’s Li family?"
"Yes, yes, it’s that Li family, the Li Family. They called that day, telling me to take care of the Jieke Group’s smuggling channels, sending a large amount of funds. How could a mere police chief like me refuse the Li family’s affair?"
Park Dong Hyun nodded repeatedly, confessing everything.
"It really is that Li family..."
The conjecture in his heart became a reality, Jin Changming gasped, his face full of shock.
This name holds unparalleled intimidation for every South Korean.
Beside him, Situang had already extinguished Park Dong Hyun’s life with a knife, even if the other was frantically begging for mercy, willing to offer all his assets, Situang didn’t hesitate for half a second.
"Samsung Lee Family, I’ve heard of this name, the one making phones and screens."
Situang wiped the blood off his knife on Park Dong Hyun’s clothing, put it back on his calf, and stood up.
"It’s not just that. They are involved in all sectors of South Korea. They’re the largest and strongest conglomerate in our country."
Jin Changming was extremely shocked. Being South Korean himself, it’s impossible not to know the South Korea Samsung Group and the Li family who controls this commercial behemoth.
In South Korea, Samsung Group’s revenue equates to 20% of South Korea’s GDP. Their operations span consumer electronics like smartphones and TVs, components like chips and lithium-ion batteries, apparel, hotels, resorts, construction, life insurance, advertising, shipbuilding, aviation, and weapons technology.
Globally speaking, a commercial giant like the South Korea Samsung Group is extremely rare. Their economy virtually holds South Korea hostage, which is why it’s often humorously referred to by outsiders as the Samsung Republic.
If you had to summarize the ubiquitous influence of the Samsung Group on South Korean society in one sentence, it would be: "South Koreans can’t escape three things in life: death, taxes, and Samsung."
From this, you can see how strong the Samsung conglomerate and the Li family controlling it are in South Korea.
They truly achieved a symbiotic relationship with the state, famously described as "flowing Presidents, steadfast Samsung."
As long as the South Korean political system doesn’t change, Samsung Group naturally has its environment for survival, and the Li family can remain as behind-the-scenes manipulators, controlling South Korea’s economy and politics to plunder the country’s wealth.
Situang, not being South Korean, was indifferent to it and continued on his way out.
"Boss Xi Tu, maybe we should stop here, after all, it’s the Li family..."
Jin Changming had never been so scared. The Samsung Lee Family, a mountain every South Korean is born unable to avoid, filled him with trepidation.
"What’s with the Li family, you have a good impression of them?"
Situang turned to glance at him.
"No, no, but still, that’s the Li family. They’re not like ordinary companies; they’re the biggest conglomerate in our country, with influence in every aspect, like your Jieke Group."
Jin Changming shook his head repeatedly. Naturally, he had no good impression of the Li family. Most South Koreans don’t either, but out of necessity, they have to scramble to join Samsung Group.
"Samsung is certainly no match for us."
Situang suddenly turned and stared at Jin Changming, his eyes cold as blades, startling Jin Changming.
"Yes, yes, Samsung Group can’t compare."
Fearing Situang might shoot him, Jin Changming nodded vigorously.
Situang snorted coldly, saying, "Before the Jieke Group came, our local people lived in hardship. After the Jieke Group arrived, our lives became colorful, getting better each day. Can Samsung Group compare?"
"Uh, they really can’t."
Jin Changming pondered; indeed, in this regard, they can’t compare.
Because of Samsung Group’s existence, they hold South Korea’s economy hostage, controlling the income of South Korean people.
You’d think South Korea is a developed country, but by their diet alone, you see, treating kimchi as a treasure, while Hua Country’s small dishes serve as their national banquet.
Samsung Group suppresses people’s incomes, as long as it’s insufficient for survival, people spend their lives struggling just to make ends meet.
Meanwhile, Samsung Group sits on a massive fortune, forcing people to be subjugated, contributing their labor.
They’ve maintained this balance for centuries, using wealth to control people, keeping them serving a lifetime.
This logic many South Koreans might not understand, but entering Samsung Group is their only choice, since other companies’ treatments don’t match Samsung. Numerous innovative enterprises full of potential have been crushed into bankruptcy by Samsung, eliminating competition, preventing them from growing strong, thus making Samsung’s status in South Korea irreplaceable.
"Moreover, you were also wrong about something else: Jieke Group is not just a company."
Situang tapped Jin Changming’s shoulder, gazing out at the arriving reinforcements, the piercing sirens, displaying a smirk: "So Samsung Group is a powerful conglomerate, yes? Let’s show them what a warlord is. Our Jieke Group is excellent at commercial warfare, especially against conglomerates."
Jin Changming’s brain felt electrified, jolting him as this remark pinpointed the core issue.
"Just a Beautiful Country’s minion... Is this how you understand our Jieke Group?"
Situang’s eyes showed some disdain, as even Beautiful Country fears them somewhat, let alone any Samsung Group. Jin Changming comparing Samsung to Jieke made it feel like the most grievous insult to Jieke Group.
Jin Changming’s eyes cleared, he remembered South Korean history’s military dictators, the well-known reign of terror, famously dubbed as "My name is Dou Huan, beating citizens into wailing."
During those times, conglomerates didn’t dare even to stir slightly, submissively like sheep, fearing reckoning six times with the military police’s stick.
With this thought, Jin Changming quickly stood at attention, shouting to Situang: "Boss Xi Tu, I most admire the Jieke Group, Loyalty to President Su, Loyalty! Loyalty! Loyalty!"
Jin Changming shouted thrice, full of respect, afraid Situang might hold a grudge.
Situang’s lips curled into a smile, nodding, saying: "Alright, let’s go, we need to leave."
"Yes!"
Descending the stairs, they got into the car with two other Genetic Warriors, speeding out of the headquarters, and through superb driving skills and several car swaps, entered a crowded mall, shaking off the pursuing police, completing their escape.
