America's Road to Wealth

"boom"!

A copy of Dong-A Ilbo, one of the three major mainstream newspapers in Han Dynasty.

It was smashed on the glass table in the living room of a quiet villa in Gangnam District, Seoul.

"Did you do the right thing?"

An Asian old man about sixty years old stared at the beautiful woman in front of him expressionlessly and shouted loudly.

The woman was Li Fuzhen who had just returned from the United States.

She first looked at the old man and the middle-aged man behind him.

Li Fuzhen picked up the Dong-A Ilbo on the table. She unfolded the front page headlines and found that the headlines were——

"Samsung Group's prince-in-law was allowed to die in a car accident!" 》

The news reports were accompanied by several tragic pictures of the car accident scene.

The content of the report is the news that the only son-in-law of the chairman of Samsung Group died in a car accident in Busan City, Hanguo.

It's morning now and the car accident happened last night.

Li Fuzhen briefly glanced at the newspaper and took a deep breath.

She threw the Dong-A Ilbo back on the table.

"If I said I didn't do it." She looked up at her father and brother, "Would you believe it?"

Li Zaixi, who was about to turn sixty, did not expect that his eldest daughter could still be so relaxed at this time.

The economic leader of Han Kingdom opened his eyes angrily, "Do you know what kind of situation you will put my Li family in if you are caught doing this, and what harm it will do to me and your brother? ?”

"You wanted to marry him at that time. The whole family was opposed to it, and it's you who will regret it later! Now that you have done these things, Li Fuzhen, Li Fuzhen, are you going to continue to be willful?!"

"You are not willful enough. Do you have to bring disaster to the Li family?"

Faced with his father's rare thunderous roar, Li Fuzhen looked up at him.

She saw the gray spots on her father's temples, and also saw the expressionless brother behind him.

"How do you say this?" Li Fuzhen said softly:

"The person who died was my husband. My husband died, but my father and brother came here and yelled at me. What on earth do you mean?"

"you!"

Li Zaixi pointed at his beautiful eldest daughter, and was so angry that he could hardly speak, "You should take care of yourself!"

The old man turned around and left after speaking.

Li Fuzhen's brother Li Zairong was a few steps behind his father, waiting for the angry Li Zaixi to walk out of the living room.

Li Zairong walked up to his sister and said, "Fuzhen, dad loves you. Don't be angry with dad anymore."

Li Fuzhen said expressionlessly: "I understand. I'm not angry with Dad."

That's not what Lee Jae-young wants to say.

I told you not to be angry with Dad.

I'm not telling you not to be angry with your dad.

The eldest son of the Li family was not very good at speaking many times, so he could only sigh, turn around and walk out.

When Li Rongzai walked out of Li Fuzhen's small villa and got into his family's car at the door.

In the back compartment, his father Li Zaixi's face showed no trace of the furious look he had just seen inside.

"Rongzai."

As soon as his son came in, Li Zaixi said softly: "It seems that your sister is really having an affair with an American."

Li Rongzai pursed his lips and whispered, "Maybe she was coerced? After all, that American has too much power."

"maybe."

Li Zaixi said: "Prosecutor Yin from Busan called just now. He said that the other party in the car accident has surrendered to the police."

"Are you Prosecutor Yoon from the Busan District Prosecutor's Office?" Li Youngzai asked.

In Han State, there is the same prosecutor system as in the United States.

In other words, this set is one of the dog bells and dog leashes that the emperors and five-star generals of South Korea and Japan hung on these two countries.

On the Neon side there is the Tokyo Prefectural Inspection Bureau, and on the Hanguo side it is the same.

Even the situation on Hanguo's side is worse than that on Neon's side.

The state of Han was called the Kingdom of Prosecutions.

The reason why the president of Han State is one of the most dangerous professions in the world.

The biggest reason is because of the prosecutorial system here.

Li Rongzai asked softly: "Who surrendered?"

Li Zaixi said with a stern face: "He was a member of the US military who went to Busan for a vacation and drank. He drank too much and knocked Ren Zai's car away while driving. After escaping, this beautiful beast returned and surrendered. "

US military, drunk, surrendered.

Li Rongzai felt that if these buffs were stacked up in Han Kingdom, he would be invincible.

It is estimated that even if the commander-in-chief of Han Kingdom is knocked away, the perpetrator may not be punished too much.

"What's the result?" Li Rongzai asked tentatively.

"The other party surrendered at the Busan Police Station." Li Zaixi looked very unhappy, "But not long ago, he was taken away by the military judge at the local US military base, claiming that he would give Han Guo an explanation."

Li Rongzai was completely silent.

Tell me, tape?

He probably told Han Guo to send him back to the United States for trial.

But in fact, at most, they just retire, or they don't even need to retire, and they can just be transferred directly from Han State to serve elsewhere.

For decades.

It all comes like this.

Li Rongzai took a deep breath and said, "Father, do you still doubt Fuzhen?"

"Who else but her?"

When it came to his eldest daughter, Li Zaixi became a little angry again.

"I told her not to get married at that time, but she insisted on getting married! Now it's better, she dares to do such a thing!"

Lee Young-jae: "Maybe it's not my sister. She can't command the U.S. military."

"She can't take command." Li Zaixi became angry again, "Have you seen the bodyguards she brought back from the United States? There are men, women, white and black! This is too obvious!"

Li Rongzai smiled bitterly: "Who do you mean?"

"Who else besides him?" Li Zaixi asked.

Li Rongzai was completely silent this time.

"Let's go." Li Zaixi told the driver in front of him, "Go home first."

He then said to his son: "Let your mother come over and talk to her first. If that doesn't work, let your other two sisters ask."

Li Rongzai nodded silently.

It's just that the father and son didn't wait for Li Zaixi's wife to come back from Li Fuzhen.

That night, the father and son received a message.

That was Li Fuzhen who returned to Han Kingdom and stayed quiet for two months.

Suddenly that night, the four major consortiums in Hanguo, including Samsung Group, LG Group, Xiandai Group, and Letian Group, were notified.

She announced her status as the representative of the major shareholder holding 5% of the shares.

Requests for the boards of directors of four large Hanguo consortiums to be re-elected to elect new board members.

What's terrible is that many Wall Street shareholders also agree with this.

Li Zaixi and his son were shocked, and then the situation took a turn for the worse.

Just one week.

Ms. Li Fuzhen, Li Zaixi’s eldest daughter.

As the representative of the major shareholders of the four major consortiums, he became one of the independent directors on the respective boards of directors of the four major groups.

At the same time, Li Fuzhen also established a company in Seoul with the Korean name "Maker Entertainment".

Not long after its establishment, Maker Entertainment announced that it would reach a strategic cooperation with Smith Media in North America.

The company will represent a portion of Smith Media's business in South Korea and Asia.

The collection of these news caused Quan Hanguo to react greatly.

What makes Li Zaixi even more troublesome is that when doing these things, Li Fuzhen did not wait for the incident of her husband's death in a car accident to pass.

Not long after Ren Ranzai died in a car accident, these matters were announced immediately.

Qi Guiqi, after all, she is still her daughter, after all, Li Fu's real surname is Li.

If something happens in the Han Kingdom, the Li family will definitely be unlucky in the end.

Li Zaixi could only prepare to use his influence to suppress negative news in this area.

But Li Zaixi was surprised to find that the entire Han Kingdom reported very positively when Li Fuzhen did these things.

They say that the tiger father has no dog daughter, the eldest princess, the strong woman, the new business queen and so on.

The news of her husband's death had been reported on the first day, but after that there was no report at all.

Li Zaixi inquired about it and found out that it was indeed a force coming to the United States.

The chairman of Samsung Group has since confirmed that his daughter has really hooked up with an American.

After getting this exact news.

He didn't even know whether he should be sad or happy.

We must know whether Li Fuzhen would contact the American at the beginning, or Li Zaixi himself supported it.

But Li Zaixi didn't expect that they would come into contact with each other until they were in this situation.

Some time passed later.

Li Zaixi was shocked to find her daughter, who had not had any contact with her husband for a year.

Li Fuzhen is actually pregnant.

Li Zaixi was completely silent.

This old father didn't know what kind of attitude he should adopt when facing the pregnant Li Fuzhen.

The child in her pregnant belly is an American child.

For a moment, the entire Li family fell into silence.

at the same time.

It has been three days since Abel arrived in Paris.

At that time he was in the 16th arrondissement of Paris.

The 16th arrondissement of Paris is one of the 20 arrondissements of Paris, the capital of France.

This area is located on the right bank of the Seine and is mostly residential.

This area is home to numerous foreign embassies, as well as Avenue Foch, the widest street in Paris.

As a result, the 16th arrondissement is often considered the wealthiest part of Paris, home to some of the most expensive real estate in France.

At the moment, he is on the phone in the courtyard of a mansion in the European medieval retro style in the 16th arrondissement of Paris.

". Once you know, you'll know. I'm not shady. If you let him know that the father of your child is me, I think it will be fine."

"Okay. Just give birth safely. You have to know that you are already thirty-one years old. If you don't give birth to a child, it will be a question whether you can have children in the future. Even if you can give birth, you will be an advanced maternal age and there will be risks."

"...I will fulfill my responsibilities as a father. You can raise your child with peace of mind. Just do the tasks I give you if you can. If you can't do them, it won't matter if you do it later."

"Well, it's okay to talk to Telina on the phone more often. Her husband is the U.S. envoy to South Korea, and his voice can be very loud when you are there."

"."

This transoceanic phone call lasted half an hour.

Under Abel's comfort, Li Fuzhen, who knew he was busy, finally hung up the phone reluctantly.

Abel put his phone away and breathed a sigh of relief.

When I think of the Han Kingdom thousands of miles away.

A former wife of someone else.

Now he is his own confinement and his own spokesman for the Han Kingdom.

She already has her own child in her belly.

The attributes of Prime Minister Cao deep in Abel's soul felt like breaking out of the prison and roaring out.

There's Lee Fuchun in the front, and Cate Blanchett in the back.

This made Abel think that if he went to heaven by himself in the future.

If you have to give yourself a Chinese name, then call yourself Cao Cao.

Thinking like this, he turned back with a smile and went to find little Laura and Anne Hathaway who were looking at the house in the villa.

He brought two girls here today to find a place to stay in the 16th arrondissement of Paris.

He came to Paris for two days, and the first day was very busy.

As soon as I got off the plane, I went to attend the reception for the Young Leaders Project of the Franco-American Foundation.

At the cocktail party, he met young Brother Ma.

After returning, I followed Soros and negotiated in the executive lounge of the Pullman Paris Defense Resort Hotel.

Then came the next day, yesterday.

Yesterday, he promised the two girls that instead of being busy with official duties, he spent a whole day with them in Paris.

Little Laura has been to Paris twice, but Abel and Anne have not been.

Although after a day of playing, the two girls were disappointed in many aspects of Paris, but overall they were quite satisfied.

Then that night, little Laura's aunt also went home.

Little Laura had already begun to get used to being slept with.

After the aunt left, the content of the three people under the quilt became even more exciting.

All kinds of ugliness, embarrassment, flattery, coquettishness, beauty, etc. that occur in the most primitive state of human beings have all been seen by each other.

Annie and little Laura, to a certain extent, accepted each other's existence.

This makes it the third day today, and the two of them have completely become like best friends.

While Abel was answering the phone.

The two girls had a great time shopping in the mansion where Francois Hollande brought Abel.

This house in the 16th arrondissement of Paris is very large, covering an area of ​​almost 4.5 hectares, or about 11.12 acres.

This kind of mansion is incomparable to the houses that often have dozens or hundreds of acres in the suburbs of Los Angeles and London.

But you must know that this house is located in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, one of the most expensive areas in Paris.

Judging from the area of ​​​​this house, if it is not the largest house in the entire 16th district, it is at least one of them.

This location is in Paris, which is equivalent to being within a ring of the imperial capital. You can imagine how important its location is.

Led by his bodyguards, Abel found little Laura and Annie.

They were walking in this huge mansion that was said to be built in the 18th century, looking at the French plane trees and classical buildings in the garden that were estimated to be one or two hundred years old.

".This nearby community is one of the most famous communities in the entire 16th District. The former commander-in-chief of France and the former commander-in-chief all have their houses here."

“Godelmar has 28 bedrooms, 4 living rooms, two swimming pools, a tennis court, a miniature golf course, a library, two outdoor gardens, and 78 trees that have been planted for more than 70 years. 40 of them are over 150 years old."

"."

The person acting as a temporary housing agency is François Holland, the mayor of the French city of Thule and the first secretary of the French Socialist Party.

Francois Hollande has clearly done his homework.

He is very familiar with the various conditions of this luxury house, and all kinds of data come out of his mouth. He is simply better than the most powerful real estate agent.

People who don't know, think that at least he has worked as an intermediary before.

Abel wanted to give him a thumbs up - this is called professionalism.

Not to mention whether Abel was moved or not.

Little Laura and Annie, who had been shopping for a while, had their eyes gleaming at this time.

The name of this mansion, Godelma, means dream house in French.

Abel is also admiring this villa built in the 18th century.

It is a building with a typical appearance of Parisian architecture, including a front facade made of "Paris stone", a roof of gray slates and tall casement windows.

The exterior walls of Notre Dame Cathedral and the Louvre are also built using this locally produced limestone.

The mansion is surrounded by beautiful green areas including the Bois de Boulogne Park and the Trocadero Park.

In addition, the property also has a lushly landscaped courtyard.

The courtyard has a water feature and is surrounded on three sides by high stone walls covered with foliage, providing the owners with a completely private space.

Even Abel, who was used to seeing luxurious manors, thought this place was very beautiful.

Francois Holland wanted to continue the introduction. Abel, who came over, raised his hand gently to indicate that he did not need to continue the introduction.

Abel asked directly: "I am very satisfied with this house. Francois, tell me its price."

The price quoted by the seller was US$140 million.

Very exaggerated.

However, this kind of quotation is generally not the final transaction price.

No matter the United States or France.

Luxury homes are priced per house, and the final negotiated price was US$88 million.

There is a difference of more than 50 million US dollars from the initial quotation of 140 million US dollars.

Maybe the reason why I liked this house too much was on the night when I signed the contract.

It was the fourth day after Abel came to Paris.

Little Laura and Annie couldn't wait to move in here.

Fortunately, no one lives in this house. As long as it is slightly repaired and inspected, it can be moved in directly.

on that night.

In addition to the new owner, this Parisian mansion named Godelma also welcomed a group of uninvited guests.

The leader of this group of uninvited guests is named Slim Stadler.

His identity is the CEO of Norges Bank Investment Management Company.

Norges Bank Investment Management Company has a very average reputation among its counterparts in Europe and the United States.

But it manages one of the top three sovereign wealth funds on the planet.

Among the funds managed by Norges Bank Investment Management is the Norwegian Petroleum Fund.

So-called sovereign funds are public wealth held in foreign currencies by a country’s government.

The purpose of sovereign funds is mainly to ensure the stability of the purchasing power of the country's surplus wealth and obtain a higher return on investment.

And at critical moments, protect the security of the country's economy, sovereign currency, etc.

Funds of this type, one by one, are behemoths in the global fund market.

Among them, sovereign funds with relatively large reputations and assets include Temasek Holdings, Hong Kong Island Monetary Authority, Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, Kuwait Investment, etc.

The fund controlled by Norges Bank Investment Management Company, now called the Norsk Petroleum Fund, is the largest sovereign fund in the Kingdom of Norway.

There was Soros before him and now he is the head of the Norwegian sovereign fund.

Of course, Slim Stadler, the CEO, could not have come to Abel to drink coffee and talk about feelings.

Unlike Soros, he may feel that he has little friendship with Abel.

Maybe it’s because you think Abel is a Wall Street guy who only cares about profit.

As soon as Slim Stad came up and saw Abel, it was in his interest to open his mouth.

"Mr. Smith, we can help you get GE's NBC television network."

As soon as he came up, Slimstad said it very directly.

He spoke English with a very standard New York accent.
