Seeing the situation develop up to this point.

Tang Qing smiled in his heart.

The roots of Korean chaebols run deep and tangled, penetrating every facet of South Korea. Normally, it’s impossible to dismantle their connections, and if one link fails, forget it.

Internal strife.

Public opinion.

Party faction.

ERV.

Intelligence.

Fighters coordinate.

Without any of these elements.

The whole setup would surely collapse; any side that doesn’t perform well will cause a collapse. The operational level and difficulty could make all global intelligence agencies blush and exclaim, ’This is absolutely impossible.’

Even if they combined efforts.

They still could not complete it.

However.

The fighters still managed to accomplish it.

Sigh.

One year.

This textbook-like ’heavenly setup’ is finally coming to an end. Tang Qing felt a bit reluctant, believing that few future tasks could match the complexity of this setup.

With enhanced strength.

Many things will become easier to handle.

What a pity.

Only he could appreciate it.

The conglomerates can’t possibly know.

Some misunderstandings.

Are actually unsolvable.

Especially under circumstances of ’conclusive evidence’ + ’preconceived notions’ + ’previous offenses’, the Kim Family had done it before, and now that it’s uncovered, even jumping into the Yellow River cannot wash it away.

No.

In South Korea’s case.

It should be the Han River.

..

In the following days.

South Korea.

The calls to split the chaebols suddenly surged.

The people were stunned.

In the past.

The major Korean media were under the control of the chaebols, and at that time, their sources for the chaebols’ dark history were only some tabloids or social media, and those from the United States.

The anti-chaebol force was extremely weak.

Even up until now.

Mainstream Korean media have been whitewashing the chaebols every day, and the voice of public opinion could only spread orally on some social media sites and among the local populace. Their voice reaching this point was incredibly difficult.

Precisely because it was difficult.

They cherished it even more, rising up in resistance.

Who knew.

In recent days, the major media changed their usual stance.

They began to respond positively to the anti-monopoly split, and their conveyed meaning was surprisingly supportive, rather than constantly saying, ’Without chaebols, we will lose cohesion, leading to mass unemployment.’ and so on.

Various reasons.

In conclusion.

It is bad to split them.

"What on earth happened?"

"I don’t know."

"Who has insider information, share a bit."

"Haven’t heard any rumors."

"I think the chaebols saw the trend as irreversible and compromised."

"No, don’t be so optimistic. These chaebols would never want to see their assets reduced. I think it’s a bigger conspiracy; I suspect they’re trying to lull us into a false sense of security."

"Makes sense, with Congress voting imminent, they want to lull us into not protesting anymore. No, we absolutely can’t fall for it. Victory is in sight, we need to push harder."

"Agreed."

"I see, how insidious these consortia are."

"Continue protesting."

"Raise our voice."

"We can’t let them succeed, the province belongs to us."

"..."

This misunderstanding.

Made the conglomerates speechless; your imagination is something. But that’s fine, since everyone’s goals are aligned now, thus all major mainstream media in South Korea worked even harder to report this matter.

...

Seoul.

Li Zhengzhi’s house.

"Strange, why is the Kim Family more aggressive than us?" Each family had channels to voice their opinions, and according to their estimation, the Kim Family would reach out to reconcile, earnestly urging them to stop.

But instead.

The Kim Family did not.

They even had their own media passionately supporting the split.

"I get it, the Kim Family feels guilty of wrongdoing and wants to smash the pot and break it, to make us believe in their innocence. If they immediately admitted and apologized to us, it wouldn’t be their best choice."

"Game theory?"

"Yes."

"Childish."

"Since he wants to play, we’ll accompany him to the end."

"Exactly."

"Who’s afraid of whom."

"Let’s see what tricks he can play."

In this misunderstanding.

Each party once again exerted force, you smash the pot and break it, as if you assume I wouldn’t do the same.

Just like that.

Everyone discovered.

The conglomerates seemed inexplicably to start fighting again, having received new directives, and the legislators were speechless too, what act are you trying to pull? Was there any sign at all?

Really brain-racking.

Give a hint, will you?

....

United States.

Meetings of major consortia, ERV attending.

"It seems the matter of the Korean chaebols is coming to an end."

"Why did they suddenly all go crazy?"

"Not sure."

"George, that’s not a good answer."

"I do know a little."

"Oh?"

"Asked yesterday, Kim Chang-min became the target of public criticism because the Kim Family suffered the least losses this year, making other families dissatisfied and even suspecting that they plan to use this to suppress them and become the strongest family."

"Quite unlucky."

"Yes."

"Forget it, this is all trivial. Mr. ERV Chairman, I wonder if you are interested in investing in a Korean chaebol, after all, its main profits belong to us, and your moves to destroy it are giving us a bit of a dilemma."

A pet raised at home.

If it is stewed by a friend, it will ultimately be a problem.

"Not very interested."

The ERV Chairman shook his head.

"Interest can be cultivated slowly. Once this split is over, we will still occupy significant shares in major Korean chaebols. If you are interested, we could offer some for sale at a very favorable price."

Towards ERV.

All major United States consortia gave considerable respect.

The reason.

Naturally stems from power.

ERV, relying on the title of ’new generation consortium’, combined with its powerful technology capabilities and increasing influence up and down the internet, is qualified to have them give up some interests.

Up to now.

They have become the true ’players’.

Money?

This thing is just a tool, their drive for making money has long since turned into a pursuit of ’standing’, as long as this game doesn’t collapse, tens to hundreds of billions of dollars are just peanuts.

Just numbers.

Giving it to this chairman.

Perhaps could earn more.

In the matter of Korean chaebols, if it weren’t for ERV wanting to flip the table, they would surely act to protect them. It’s also good this way, reshuffling, with the competition, they will be more respectful towards the American consortiums.

Reshuffling.

Also represents opportunities.

"I’ll think about it."

"Alright."

The wealth dreamed of by outsiders.

But in the eyes of these consortia, it’s just not that big of a deal. They believe that ERV’s persistence has a hint of muddying the waters followed by stepping in, which isn’t considered a very clever tactic.

Very normal.

For example.

A company wants to invest in another company.

The other party isn’t selling.

Or it’s too expensive.

So.

They high-profile announce their strategic goal, directly aiming at the core product of the other party, then, due to possibly already having relatively advanced technology, after approaching, the other party is afraid to fight to the death.

They have to compromise.

Therefore.

In their view.

ERV doesn’t really want to kill Samsung, LG, and other Korean chaebol enterprises, but rather lay out their chips, forcing them to the negotiation table.
