"Didn't I just call to persuade you?"

On the other end of the phone, Li Zaiming said with a smile:

"Yes, Mayor, thank you."

Zhou Wenhai also thanked the other party with a smile.

"Wen Hai, the future is entirely up to you."

Finally, Li Zaiming did not forget to remind him.

"Yes, I know what to do, Mayor, thank you for your concern."

Unless it was absolutely necessary, Zhou Wenhai would not tell Zhou Xingmao about this matter.

After the conversation, Zhou Wenhai hesitated and smoked a cigarette. Xu Minjing was still sitting on the booth in the coffee shop, and the bodyguard stood upright beside her.

Zhou Wenhai threw away the cigarette, and he walked slowly towards Xu Minjing.

"Min Jing Xi."

Xu Minjing lowered her head, Zhou Wenhai stood beside her and shouted.

"Please tell President Xu that time is running out. If we can't reach an agreement today, I can't guarantee that the reporters won't know about it tomorrow."

No matter what Zhou Wenhai said, Xu Minjing kept her head down and didn't look at him or answer.

"What I just said, if Min Jingxi forgets, please remember to convey the words to your president for her."

Zhou Wenhai told Xu Minjing's bodyguard.

Yongsan District, Seoul

Xu Minjing sat in the car to touch up her makeup, and after meeting Zhou Wenhai, she cried and ruined her makeup.

After tidying up her emotions, Xu Minjing smiled at herself in the mirror, then she got out of the car and entered the Amorepacific Group building.

"Minister Xu."

Xu Minjing smiled at every Amore employee who greeted her.

"President Xu, is there really no other way?"

Xu Minjing heard her father talking on the phone at the door of the president's office.

"S...Okay, thank you for your message."

When her father hung up the phone, Xu Minjing walked in and closed the door and asked, "Abba, who are you talking to?"

"Xu Shengxian from Shiyue Group."

Xu Qingpei took a bag of Chinese medicine supplements from the drawer, tore open the bag, and drank it in one gulp.

"President Xu, what did he say that made you so angry?"

Xu Minjing went forward to add hot water to his cup.

"Xu Shengxian said that he and Zhou Wenhai are in a cooperative relationship and cannot help us. He also said that the relationship between Zhou Wenhai and the Blue House is unusual, so I'd better bear with it."

Since this morning, Xu Qingpei has been holding back his anger.

"Then have you asked anyone else to help?"

"I have approached Chairman Xin of Lotte and Chairman Hong of JoongAng Daily. Chairman Xin tactfully rejected my request. Chairman Hong came forward to communicate with Mayor Li Zaiming, but there was nothing further."

"Where is grandpa?"

"Your grandfather is getting old, I didn't ask your mother to go to him, and he can't help much."

The strength of Nongshim Group is not as good as that of Amore Pacific Group, Xu Qingpei has no intention of asking his father-in-law Xin Chunhao for help.

"Minjing, how did your talk with that kid go today?"

Facing her father's question, Xu Minjing shook her head.

"Zhou Wenhai told you to go talk to him in person, and he also said that if the talk is not finished after today, he will announce the uncle's affairs to the media."

If it wasn't for his daughter being here, Xu Qingpei would have blurted out the words Xiba.

"You send him a text message, just say that I asked him to meet at the Lotte City Hotel in Jung-gu at seven o'clock tonight."

Xu Minjing sent a text message to Zhou Wenhai according to her father's instructions, and soon she received a reply from Zhou Wenhai.

"Father, Zhou Wenhai said it's okay to change the location to a five-star hotel in Yangchuan District."

Xu Minjing told Xu Qingpei according to the short message Zhou Wenhai replied.

"five-star hotel?"

The five-star hotel is Zhou Wenhai's territory, Xu Qingpei is a little worried.

"Yangchuan District is too far away, let him change places."

After a while, Xu Minjing looked at the text message Zhou Wenhai replied on the phone and said, "He asked if it would be okay to change the location to Shilla Hotel."

"Can."

Central District, Seoul

At 6:50 in the evening, Zhou Wenhai brought Jin Xiujun and three others to the Luoyan Handingshi restaurant on the 23rd floor of Shilla Hotel. Xu Qingpei also brought four bodyguards with him.

The three of Jin Xiujun and the four bodyguards sat facing each other at the dining table outside the box, while Zhou Wenhai and Xu Qingpei entered the box.

The two of them didn't give each other good looks from the moment they met, Xu Qingpei didn't greet him, Zhou Wenhai simply didn't take the initiative to greet him.

"Come on, what do you want to talk about?"

Xu Qingpei said sarcastically.

"President Xu, you should know what I think."

Zhou Wenhai turned on his phone and showed the other party the pictures of Sulwhasoo.

"Don't think about it."

Even if there is a waiter here, Xu Qingpei still said angrily.

"You go out first."

Zhou Wenhai asked the waiter to go out.

"yes."

After the waiter left, Zhou Wenhai went on to say: "President Xu, I never force others, I just hope you can carefully analyze the stakes."

"Really? Even if the prosecution prosecutes my brother, I will ask the lawyer to apply for probation for him. The probability of getting probation for this kind of thing is very high, don't you know?"

Xu Qingpei said with a disapproving smile.

"President Xu, of course I know, but are you sure you want to give up the entire Huaguo market for a Sulwhasoo? There are 1.4 billion people there."

Zhou Wenhai laughed louder than him.

"What do you mean?"

Seeing the other party smiling so happily, Xu Qingpei felt a little uneasy.

"At this time, your younger brother used foreign students to smuggle for your Amore Pacific Group. Now these foreign students may face the risk of being deported or even imprisoned. Do you think that if this news is spread..."

Xu Qingpei stopped talking, and Zhou Wenhai said again: "Besides, tax evasion is disgraceful to any company. I think if the people in LG Health Club know about it, they will probably hit you hard."

The so-called peers are like enemies, LG is very likely to do this, Xu Qingpei is still silent.

"Don't you still have brands such as Heyan, Laneige, Mengzhuang, and Innisfree? For a Sulwhasoo, do you think it is worth it?"

In 2015, the total global sales of all cosmetic brands under Amorepacific reached more than 3 trillion won, of which 42% came from Huaguo. For Xu Qingpei, he naturally did not want to give up the huge market of Huaguo.

Zhou Wenhai wanted to pick up vegetables with his chopsticks, but at this moment Xu Qingpei suddenly asked, "What kind of conditions can you offer?"

"I will help you sell your products to Huaguo without charging any service fees, plus 10% of the shares of Five Star Foods and Five Star Construction and 100 billion won in cash."

"Five Star Construction Club?"

Xu Qingpei heard for the first time that Zhou Wenhai had set up another branch.

"Yes, it is a newly established company with a registered capital of 50 billion won."

Zhou Wenhai reduced the 150 billion won he had previously negotiated with Gu Guangmo to 50 billion won.

"President Xu, don't worry, my five-star construction club will definitely have great potential in the future, and even LG's executive Ku Guangmo wants to take a stake in it."

"100 billion is too little, I want 300 billion."

Xu Qingpei stared at him fiercely and said.

"300 billion is too much, President Xu, no matter what you think, I don't mean to take advantage of the fire, 150 billion, I won't add more."

Xu Qingpei didn't hesitate anymore, he said decisively: "Okay, I'll give you an answer after I convene the council tomorrow."
