The Wall Street Journal reported: "Shin Dongbin, 62, the president of South Korea's Lotte Group, admitted that he has no way to resolve the dilemma at the moment. He hopes that the new president born in the South Korean election on May 9 can help ease tensions between South Korea and China and clear obstacles for Lotte to resume its business in China."

South Korea's Joong Ilbo reported: "Lotte Group has recently urgently sent 360 billion won of funds to the Lotte branch in China. According to experts' analysis, if the current situation does not change, then the 360 ​​billion won of funds will only be enough for Lotte to last until the end of August this year."

The remedial measures taken by Lotte forced Zhou Wenhai to change his plan. He flew to China. With the help of Mr. Hong, Mr. He and others, Zhou Wenhai opened a five-star department store in the four metropolis of China, Pujing, Xianghai, CD and Yangcheng. For this reason, he spent a total of 138.2 billion won.

President Han and Yin Minghao are responsible for the specific investment work of the Five-Star Department Store, and Feng Xiaowei and Han Jingen are responsible for asking the public relations team to promote the Five-Star Department Store.

"President Han, remember to leave a few slightly larger stores when investing in the business."

On the day he returned to South Korea, Zhou Wenhai refused to forget President Han’s instructions.

"Yes, but President, can I ask why this is?"

President Han was puzzled by Zhou Wenhai's words. Many agents from China and other countries have expressed their desire to enter the Five-Star Department Store these days. He roughly counted that the store was already in short supply.

"Now, most companies in South Korea have encountered difficulties in physical sales stores in China. After I go back, there will definitely be many people coming to me."

"Yes, President, I understand."

President Han and him smiled and said.

...

On April 4, Zhou Wenhai flew back to South Korea. Through yesterday's news, he learned that Mr. Wen defeated three candidates, Lee Jae-ming, An Hee-jung and Choi Sung, within the party, and the joint Democratic Party officially nominated Mr. Wen as the candidate for the next presidential election.

"I've arrived, Min Jing, do you know what happened to President Xu last time?"

Zhou Wenhai called Xu Minjing as soon as he got off the plane.

"I haven't seen each other for so many days, is your first question just to ask me this question?"

Xu Minjing got angry again.

"No, don't we chat every day?"

Zhou Wenhai doesn't understand why women always think about it one after another.

"Bather said that the board of directors has basically approved his proposal. I think he will talk to you about that matter again in two days. You will be happy now."

"Of course I'm happy."

"you……"

"What I'm happy about is that President Xu finally agreed to our formal date."

Zhou Wenhai said in a pretentious manner, and Xu Minjing's laughter came from the phone.

Back at the villa and rested for one night, the next morning, Zhou Wenhai took the gift from Ruicao District to visit Li Zaiming's home in Chengnan City.

"Sir, Director Luo from the secretary's office just called and said that Jiang Xinhao, the representative director of CJ First Sugar Manufacturing Company, and Li Shanhao, the head of the business department, want to visit you."

Kim Soo-jun opened the door for Zhou Wenhai and got into the car. He said while wearing a seat belt.

"I got it, tell Director Luo, and I told them that I would meet them in the conference room No. 1 at 3:00 pm."

Zhou Wenhai looked at the time on his watch and said that it was 9:40 in the morning.

"Yes, but he will be the Lord."

Kim Soo-jun turned to look at him and said.

"What's wrong?"

"This Lee Sun-ho is the eldest son of President Lee Jae-hyun, CJ Group."

Kim Soo-jun didn't know whether he should say this. After saying that, he looked at Zhou Wenhai nervously.

"Soojoon, how did you know?"

If Kim Soo-jun hadn't said this, Zhou Wenhai wouldn't have known that Lee Sun-ho was actually Lee Jae-hyun's eldest son.

"Uncle told me to follow the president and you said that you must study more on weekdays, so I put some effort into these aspects in my spare time."

"Good job, Xiujun, do it well."

Zhou Wenhai praised.

"Yes, thank you President."

Chengnan City

Zhou Wenhai entered Lee Jae-ming's home with a gift, and his wife Kim Hye-kyung opened the door to greet him.

"Hello, Madam."

He bowed and handed the gift to Kim Hye-kyung.

"President Zhou, please come in and sit down."

At this time, Li Zaiming slowly walked down from the upper floor.

This home was not the one Li Zaiming used to appear on the SBS variety show "Same Bed and Different Dreams". It was a two-story villa. After recording the program, they moved back to the villa.

"Mayor."

Zhou Wenhai stood up and bowed to Li Zaiming and greeted him.

"Wen Haina, how are you doing recently?"

He lost to Mr. Wen in the party election, and Li Zaiming had no smile on his face, and he was very depressed.

"yes."

Lee Jae-ming came over and sat opposite Zhou Wenhai, and Kim Hye-kyung made two cups of tea for them.

"Is there anything wrong with you here today?"

Realizing that his expression was too serious, Li Zaiming forced out a smile and said.

"Yes, I came today to ask the mayor, do you have any plans next?"

Li Zaiming is not bad for himself on weekdays, and his five-star group is given priority to all preferential policies. Zhou Wenhai asked directly.

"What can I do? I am not qualified to run for the election this time."

Li Zaiming sighed.

"Although you cannot run for the election this time, no one can tell what will happen in the future."

Zhou Wenhai comforted.

"Let's talk about this later."

"Mayor, will you participate in the local election next year?"

Zhou Wenhai asked tentatively.

"Probably,"

"Mayor, I will walk with you wherever you go."

Zhou Wenhai expressed his support for Lee Jae-ming. If nothing unexpected happens, Lee Jae-ming's election as the next Governor of Gyeonggi Province is basically a foregone conclusion.

"I understand, Wen Hai, you have the heart."

Li Zaiming understood the other party's words and understood that this was Zhou Wenhai's main purpose of visiting him today. He nodded with relief and said.

After talking about the local election next year, Zhou Wenhai asked Li Zaiming about his opinion of Mr. Wen again. From the other party's words, he could tell that Li Zaiming was not very hostile to Mr. Wen because both were poor and they had both worked as human rights lawyers.

At noon, Zhou Wenhai had a simple meal with Li Zaiming at home. He stayed until two o'clock in the afternoon before getting up and saying goodbye to Li Zaiming and his wife.

Walking out of the Lee family villa, his A8 and Escalade were parked on the opposite side of the road, Kim Soo-jun lying in the car and sleeping, while Yoo Zongxiu and Han Dong-soo were leaning back on the car and smoking.

When Liu Zongxiu saw Zhou Wenhai coming out, he extinguished the cigarette butt in his hand, while Han Dongzhu was still lowering his head to play with his cell phone.

"Xiang Eight" Han Dongzhu suddenly looked up at Liu Zongxiu and said, "Brother Zongxiu, look at him."

Liu Zongxiu took Han Dongzhu's cell phone and looked at it for a while. Zhou Wenhai found that his face became dim in an instant.

"What's wrong?"

Zhou Wenhai said after walking across the road.

"Sir..." Liu Zongxiu returned the phone to Han Dongzhu, and he stammered and didn't know how to answer.

"President, please take a look."

Han Dongzhu's mobile phone shows Naver's web page, and there is an extremely eye-catching news report in the middle of the web page.

After reading this news, Zhou Wenhai was stunned for more than ten seconds.

"Xiba, who did it?"

Zhou Wenhai almost threw his phone to the ground, and he roared.
