I want to be a chaebol - Chapter 296 F1 Korean Grand Prix Opening Ceremony
Wearing a bathrobe, Chen Xinyu was drying her hair in the bathroom. Song Yi walked up to Chen Xinyu and was about to take the hair dryer from Chen Xinyu’s hand and help her dry her hair.
Chen Xinyu turned around, but the bathrobe on her body fell to the ground. Song Yi looked at Chen Xinyu’s graceful spring scenery, and his heart warmed up. He picked up Chen Xinyu and took two steps towards the bathtub, “Xinyu, my hair will be done later.” If you keep blowing, let’s take another mandarin duck bath together, right?”
After finishing, Song Yi sat on a wicker chair, and Chen Xinyu nestled in Song Yi’s arms, like a docile kitten. Chen Xinyu stroked the stubble on Song Yi’s chin with her hand, “Why didn’t you shave clean today? Do you want to pretend to be serious in front of me? You pricked me when I kissed you just now.”
Song Yi heard Chen Xinyu’s complaint and joked with Chen Xinyu, “Didn’t I get pricked by you when I kissed you just now? Let’s not talk about the other.”
When Chen Xinyu heard what Song Yi said, her face suddenly turned red, and she pinched Song Yi’s thigh flesh with her hands. Song Yi felt pain and quickly begged for mercy, “Xinyu, be gentle. If you strike too harshly, you may be delayed.” Happiness in the next life.”
Chen Xinyu glanced at Song Yi with a very charming look in her eyes, “I only have you as a man, but you have so many women. If I leave you, I can find another man who loves me to get married. If I leave me, you have to guard you. My lovely wife and beautiful family are alone in the empty house.”
When Song Yi heard what Chen Xinyu said, he shook his head, “I used to think that you and Fuzhen had different personalities, but it turns out that this is just an appearance. You are also a rose with thorns.”
Chen Xinyu smiled and said, “A rose with thorns can impress people. If a rose has no thorns, what is the difference between it and the flowers and plants that can be seen everywhere in the park?”
“A woman is emotional. She can show her coldest side to people she doesn’t love, and she can also show her softest side in front of her lover. What I pursue has never been the love between children, and I can’t be a man’s golden silk. Sparrow. The more someone tries to tie me down, the less likely they are to get me.”
“I used to feel like I was wearing a layer of armor. This layer of armor is getting thicker and thicker. It protects me on the surface, but it makes me feel suffocated. In the past two years, I feel like I have come to life again. , after I gave up the 190 million US dollars in stocks my father gave me, my mentality suddenly became much more relaxed. Even if my father knew that I was with you, I would have nothing to fear.” Chen Xinyu held Song Yi’s hand. , said firmly.
When Song Yi heard Chen Xinyu’s words, her heart tightened. Chen Xinyu in the original time and space committed suicide in a luxury apartment in New York in November 2005. Chen Xinyu said that she felt like she had come to life again in the past two years, and she was indeed right.
“Some birds are not destined to be locked in cages. Every feather of them shines with the light of freedom.” Song Yi said a classic line.
Chen Xinyu kissed Song Yi and said, “When the Korean Grand Prix is over, I will run a few laps on the Lingyan track. The Ferrari 599 only has two seats. Do you want to sit in the passenger seat and experience the speed and passion?”
Song Yi shook his head, “Everyone who knows how to drive wants to experience the lightning speed on the track. However, even though he is as skilled as the car god Senna, he still got into a car accident due to his too risky driving strategy. We don’t need to take this risk. After all, A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.”
Chen Xinyu glanced at Song Yi doubtfully, “Sometimes I really suspect that there is a middle-aged soul hidden under your young body. You don’t have the adventurous gene in your bones. No wonder you are so successful in business.”
As the first F1 Korean Grand Prix, the opening ceremony is scheduled before the start of the main race on October 21. The general opening ceremony time is 15 minutes, because South Korean President Song Woo-seok will visit the competition site in person, attend the opening ceremony, and deliver a speech. After communicating with Hyundai Sports, the operator of the F1 Korean Grand Prix, and the F1 event organizing committee, the opening ceremony time will be set. for 45 minutes.
Like the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup, the opening ceremony of the F1 Korean Grand Prix included some artistic performances. The finale was when Kim Taeyeon led 99 children from Jeollanam Province to sing the traditional Korean song “Arirang”.
In addition to Kim Taeyeon, there are also girl group Wonder Girls, boy group TVXQ, FTisland, SS501, BigBang, and solo singer Lee Hyori singing her own songs at the opening ceremony.
Wonder Girls is the most popular girl group in 2007. The song “Tell Me” composed by JYP’s Park Jin Young for Wonder Girl has already won 10 awards in the music programs of the four major TV stations: KBS, MBC, SBS and ABS. One by one.
FTisland is a boy band launched by FNC Entertainment this year. Their momentum is good, and their song “Love Sickness” won 7 No. 1 spots. SS501 is a boy group under SA Music. Their song “4 Chance” also won 5 first places.
When the lineup for the opening ceremony of the F1 Korean Grand Prix was announced, fans of YG Entertainment expressed great dissatisfaction.
SM Entertainment has TVXQ and Kim Taeyeon, JYP Entertainment has Wonder Girls, SA Music has SS501, and even FNC Entertainment’s FTisland has participated. Why can’t BigBang, which won the first place six times with the song “Lies,” attend the opening ceremony? Aren’t you, Hyundai Sports, deliberately discriminating against our YG Entertainment artists?
When fans of YG Entertainment expressed their dissatisfaction on the inschool official website, fans of SM Entertainment were also dissatisfied. SA Music and SM Entertainment are the sons of the SA Group. Hyundai Sports is willing to support artists from other entertainment companies, which is a great honor. Didn’t you see that Girls’ Generation and Super Junior, who have won No. 1 five times, did not participate in the opening ceremony art performance?
BigBang fans couldn’t help but reply to SM Entertainment fans, “SuperJunior didn’t have any good songs this year, so what qualifications do they have to participate in the performance. Besides, didn’t Girls’ Generation’s leader Kim Taeyeon perform at the finale? What’s not to be satisfied with?”
Girls’ Generation fans are also a little dissatisfied when they see fans of BigBang starting fights on the inschool website and trying to blame Kim Taeyeon.
“The finale of South Korea’s major sports events is “Arirang.” Kim Taeyeon is a singer from Jeollanam Province. She sang “Arirang” with 99 children to symbolize peace on the peninsula. She did not sing her own songs, nor did she I am promoting Girls’ Generation, what are you dissatisfied with?”
“Isn’t it amazing that Big Bang’s “Lies” scored 6 No. 1 spots? “Girls’ Generation” also got 5 No. 1 spots. Didn’t Girls’ Generation still show up at the opening ceremony?” Girls’ Generation fans complained for their sisters. .
BigBang fans’ counterattack was also very powerful, “Is Kim Taeyeon the only singer in Jeollanam-do? Isn’t Kim Jong-kook, who has won the KBS, MBC and SBS Music Awards at the same time, more qualified to represent Jeollanam-do than Kim Taeyeon?”
“Even if Kim Jong Kook doesn’t appear, isn’t TVXQ’s leader Jung Yunho from Jeollanam-do? Since TVXQ has already attended the opening ceremony, why not let Jung Yunho sing “Arirang” with the children?” BigBang fans made a clear analysis.
Kim Taeyeon also saw these comments on the Internet, and she found that fans of TVXQ, SuperJunior, BigBang or SS501 seemed to have a lot of complaints about Girls’ Generation.
Fans of TVXQ and SuperJunior complained that some members of Girls’ Generation had no sense of boundaries and deliberately posted photos with TVXQ or SuperJunior on the inschool website. This was to gain popularity and do whatever it took to become famous.
Kim Taeyeon is a little worried. Girls’ Generation is not yet popular, but a large number of anti-fans have appeared. What puzzles her the most is that Girls’ Generation, TVXQ, Super Junior, and SS501 are all artists under the SA Group, but fans of these three groups have the biggest objections to Girls’ Generation.
Xu Zhuxian saw Kim Taeyeon’s uneasiness and comforted the captain thoughtfully, “Taeyeon, you don’t have to worry. Since Hyundai Sports has invited you to sing “Arirang” for the finale, it has recognized that you are the most suitable candidate. My mother will also be there this weekend. Take me to Jeollanam-do to watch the F1 race. If you are free, we can make a dinner date together.”
Kim Taeyeon inexplicably felt that Song Yi appointed her to sing the finale song. Song Yi hoped to use the F1 Korean Grand Prix to promote Girls’ Generation, but did not want to be criticized, so she asked Hyundai Sports to invite her to sing the finale.
Park Jinyoung also announced the good news on the inschool homepage that the WonderGirls group will attend the opening ceremony of the F1 Korean Grand Prix.
As the first group to appear, Wonder Girls has fully proved the international influence of Wonder Girls. Wonder Girls will officially enter the North American market next year and hold concerts in North America. JYP Entertainment wants to build Wonder Girls into an international idol group.
On October 21, the stage for the opening ceremony of the F1 Korean Grand Prix was set up in the morning, and the artists participating in the cultural performance came to the stage in advance to rehearse. The biggest among these artists is Lee Hyori. Lee Hyori will sing “You Raise Me Up” by Secret Garden Band at the opening ceremony. This music is also the episode of Michael Schumacher’s farewell commemorative film.
Michael Schumacher served as the guest commentator for ABS TV’s live commentary of the F1 Korean Grand Prix. Lee Hyori’s singing of this English song can be regarded as a tribute to Schumacher.
Song Yi and Hyundai Sports President Zhou Mongkui hosted F1 President Bernie Eccles, F1 Race Director Charlie Whiting, and “Car King” Michael Schumacher at noon. Jeollanam-do Governor Lee Kwang-hun and Yahoo Korea President Chen Xinyu also attended It is the celebratory feast of modern sports.
Song Yi is no stranger to Li Guangxian. Minister of Justice Ha Mi-ae promoted the reform of the Korean prosecutorial system, and Li Guangxian was the first director of the Public Investigation Department. When Li Guangxian was the director of the Public Relations Department, he also initiated an investigation into Lexi Yi.
When Song Yi planned to apply to host the F1 Korean Grand Prix, Lee Kwang-hyun already knew that the F1 competition venue would be located in Jeollanam Province. Jeollanam Province is the voting base of the ruling party’s Open National Assembly. Song Yi won the right to host the F1 Korean Grand Prix because of this aspect. consideration. North Jeolla Province and South Jeolla Province are originally positioned as tourist provinces.
Bernie and Song Yi complimented each other on business, and Bernie said that he was also a user of the Galaxy S1 series of mobile phones. He suggested that Song Yi could add some racing elements to the Galaxy S series phones.
Gaojin Electronics is already a global business partner of F1, and there are already many billboards for Galaxy S1 series mobile phones at the F1 Korean Grand Prix. If the Galaxy S series mobile phones have F1-related factors, and F1 has to pay a huge promotion fee, Bernie is really smart enough.
Song Yi’s response was also superficial, saying that Gaojin Electronics intends to have closer brand cooperation with F1.
After eating, Song Yi and his team returned to the competition venue. Before the opening ceremony, Hyundai Motor Group’s Joo Mong-koo and Joo Eui-sun, Hyundai Group’s Joo Mong-joon and Joo Ki-sun, Hyundai Sports director Seo Mi-kyung, daughter Kim Yoo-mi and son-in-law Joo Dae-sun all appeared in the VIP seating area on the upper floor of the pit room. Zhou Mengjiu and his son and Xu Meijing were chatting and laughing in their seats. Zhou Dashan and his wife introduced the current situation of Xingzhou Racing Industrial Park to Zhou Mengzhun and his son.
In addition to the Yeongam Circuit, the venue for the F1 Korean Grand Prix, the Seongju Automobile Industrial Park also has F1-themed hotels, go-kart clubs, car-themed amusement parks, modified car clubs, etc. The karting club also has a miniature version of the Lingyan track, allowing car fans to experience the fun of driving karts.
Zhou Mengjiu and his son noticed that Bernie Eccles and Song Yi entered the venue, and Zhou Yixuan noticed Chen Xinyu following Song Yi. Today, Chen Xinyu wore a pink suit skirt and black stockings, making her figure particularly graceful. For today’s explanation, Chen Xinyu even wore a pair of plain glasses, which made her look particularly stunning.
Zhou Yixuan said to Zhou Mengjiu, “Father, today Miss Xinyu will be the on-site commentator. This should be Miss Xinyu’s first time on a TV station. I wonder what President Chen thinks when he sees Miss Xinyu’s comment today?”
Zhou Mengjiu glanced at Song Yi with a unswerving expression. The SA World Tower that SA Group applied to the Seoul City Government this year has been approved.
SA World Tower is located in Songpa District, adjacent to Jamsil Subway Station. The design height of the building is 568 meters, and the total floor of the building is 118 floors.
After Hyundai was established in 2001, Zhou Mengjiu considered building a skyscraper as the new headquarters of Hyundai Motor Group.
After three points of Hyundai Group, Asan Group is the weakest. Now six years have passed, the SA Group based on the Asan Group has become the second largest consortium in South Korea, and Hyundai Motor Group has been overtaken by the SA Group.
Zhou Mengjiu never dreamed that in addition to the four core industries of Internet, media, real estate and finance, SA Group would launch a strong challenge to Samsung Electronics in the consumer electronics industry. Gaojin Electronics has become the third largest mobile phone manufacturer in South Korea. .
The new headquarters building of Hyundai Motor Group is still on the design paper, the SA World Tower has been approved, and the SA Group has also acquired the land in Songpa District.
SA Group is building a new headquarters in Songpa District, and Lotte Group has been the loudest protester. Lotte World Theme Park is located in Songpa District, not far from SA World Tower. After the SA World Tower is completed, users of the SA World Tower will be able to directly overlook the Sanxin Lake in Lotte World Park.
The most important thing is that Lotte Group originally planned to build a skyscraper in Songpa District, but it has never been approved. Now that SA World Tower has been approved, it is impossible to build another skyscraper of the same height on the same site unless Lotte Group is willing to modify the design height. Adjust the planning of Lotte World Tower from a super high-rise building over 500 meters to a high-rise building over 200 meters.
Zhou Mengjiu knew Zhou Yixuan’s thoughts. Zhou Yixuan was originally the most outstanding third generation of the modern family, but Song Yi’s appearance took away Zhou Yixuan’s limelight.
Now Zhou Yixuan naturally does not dare to break up with Song Yi. As the richest man in South Korea and a world-renowned rich man ranked fifth on the Forbes list, Zhou Mengjiu has to be polite when he sees Song Yi. How dare Zhou Yixuan do anything stupid.
However, the reason why Zhou Yixuan was unhappy was not with Song Yi, but with Zhou Zhiyi, who was also the third generation of the modern family.
After postponing the judgment date once, the U.S. International Trade Commission made a judgment on the patent litigation case between Apple and Gaojin Electronics on October 18, finding that Gaojin Electronics did not infringe on the four patents submitted by Apple.
Some analysts believe that Apple’s defeat is only the first step in a series of legal disputes between Apple and Gaojin Electronics, two mobile phone manufacturers, and will have a considerable impact on the future smartphone market structure. It is not ruled out that Apple will launch more patent lawsuits against Gaojin Electronics in the future.
As the managing director of Gaojin Electronics, Zhou Zhiyi has appeared on many programs in the United States. Her reasonable responses in the show gave Gaojin Electronics and Galaxy S1 series mobile phones a strong sense of presence.
According to data released by operator Sprint, since Zhou Zhiyi came to the United States to lead the patent litigation case of Gaofin Electronics, the weekly sales of Galaxy S1 series mobile phones have increased by 8%. The United States has also set off a “Zhou Zhiyi whirlwind”.
South Korea’s three major newspapers have followed up and reported on Zhou Zhiyi’s outstanding performance. There are already voices from the outside saying that Zhou Zhiyi is the most outstanding third generation of the Hyundai family, and that Zhou Zhiyi is an outstanding young talent with an international vision.
The three brothers Zhou Mengjiu, Zhou Mengxian and Zhou Mengzhun have been competing with each other, and their children will naturally be compared. Zhou Yixuan felt very uncomfortable when he saw that the Korean media were all praising Zhou Mengxian’s eldest daughter Zhou Zhiyi.
Zhou Mengjiu said to Zhou Yixuan: “Someone saw Chen Xinyu driving her Ferrari 599 to Xingzhou. When today’s F1 race ends, Chen Xinyu may drive her new sports car for two laps on the Lingyan track.”
“President Chen never likes to see Chen Xinyu racing, and Chen Zaiyong also cares about her, the youngest sister. Since we are here, and I am Chen Xinyu’s elder, of course I can’t ignore it. Yi Xuan, you and Chen Zaiyong will inform you Just a cry.” Zhou Mengjiu asked calmly.
The scheming Zhou Mengjiu might have seen something through Chen Xinyu’s performance. He suspected that Song Yi and Chen Xinyu had gone beyond the relationship between a male boss and a female subordinate, so he ordered Zhou Yixuan to inform Chen Zaiyong. It is impossible for the Samsung family to tolerate Chen Xinyu playing tricks on Song Yi now. In order to preserve the reputation of the Samsung family, Chen Jianxi and his son will definitely not sit idly by.
After giving instructions to Zhou Yixuan, Zhou Mengjiu stood up as if nothing happened, and went with Zhou Mengzhun to greet the arrival of Song Yi and Bernie Ecclestone.
Song Yi didn’t know that Zhou Mengjiu was plotting against him behind his back and praised the three young men Zhou Yixuan, Zhou Jixuan and Zhou Dashan in front of Bernie Ecclestone.
Bernie Eccleton knew that Zhou Yixuan would inherit the Hyundai Motor Group in the future, and after chatting with him for a few more words, Zhou Yixuan’s complexion improved a lot. Bernie Ecclestone encouraged Zhou Yixuan and hoped that the first Korean team would appear in the F1 field in the future.
Seeing that Song Yi really wanted to support her son-in-law Zhou Dashan, Xu Meijing’s affection for Song Yi deepened. Although she didn’t hear the conversation between Zhou Mengjiu and his son just now, she noticed that Zhou Mengjiu and his son had their eyes on Chen Xinyu. She decided to find Song Yi alone after the game to give him a heads up.
Regardless of the fact that SA Group, Hyundai Motor Group and Hyundai Group are all shareholders of Hyundai Sports, SA Group and Hyundai Motor Group have always been at odds with each other and maintained superficial harmony.
Since SA Group has already been involved in the mobile phone industry, SA Group may also enter the automobile industry in the future and challenge Hyundai Motor Group.
Although members of the modern family cannot get involved in the core industries of other family members, Song Yi can no longer be regarded as a member of the modern family.
The total market value of all listed companies under the SA Group has exceeded the combined market value of all the companies of other members of the Hyundai family. The Hyundai family can no longer restrain Song Yi from getting involved in the automobile industry.
SA Group has been involved in the retail industry before. Sohan Mall, the offline physical store of Sohan.com, has opened in major cities in South Korea. The 16 Wal-Mart stores have further consolidated SA Group’s competitive advantage in the retail department store industry.
The opening ceremony was set for 15:00, and at 14:55, President Song Woo-seok’s motorcade appeared in the parking lot outside the competition venue.
The Wonder Girls are ready to enter. Min Sun-ye, Ahn So-hee, Park Ye-eun, Lee Sun-mi and Kim Yoo-bin are wearing close-fitting space suits, attracting the attention of many racing fans.
Min Sun-ye and Park Ye-eun changed to neat short hair this time, dyed red and orange respectively. Kim Yoobin is also from Jeollanam-do, and her appearance also attracted a lot of cheers.
Wonder Girls debuted in July 2007, almost at the same time as Girls’ Generation. As a representative of the second generation girl group, Wonder Girls has become South Korea’s top girl group with the hit song “Tell Me”. Girls’ Generation’s Development is almost meaningless.
In 2007, Wonder Girls had a song “Tell Me”, and in 2008 there was a song “Nobody” that became a hit all over the Internet. Girls’ Generation still won nine consecutive music program titles with “Gee” released in January 2009. , officially reached the top of South Korea’s top girl group. After “Gee” won nine consecutive championships, it gave up singing programs in order to express its respect for the Wonder Girls group’s 10 No. 1s.
When Wonder Girls first debuted, the five-member group did not include Kim Yoobin. The original member was “Little Wild Horse” Kim Hyuna. Less than a month after Wonder Girls debuted, Kim Hyuna was forced to quit the group due to gastroenteritis. Kim Yoobin only joined the Wonder Girls group last month, and as soon as he joined the group, he won 10 No. 1 spots. Maybe this means that small fires rely on support, and big fires rely on life. Kim Hyuna’s luck is really bad. If she had stayed in the Wonder Girls group, she would not have needed to become popular through the sexy route.
When Kim Hyuna went home to recuperate, SA Music extended an olive branch to Kim Hyuna. As long as Kim Hyuna intends to continue to be a singer, SA Music welcomes Kim Hyuna to join at any time. SA Music President Ji Jong Hwa promised Kim Hyuna that SA Music would train her as the second Lee Hyori.
The cultural performance at the opening ceremony finally came to an end. When Lee Hyori, who was the penultimate performer, sang “You Raise Me Up”, Michael Schumacher looked surprised and sang along softly in the live broadcast of ABS TV.
When the fans at the scene saw Michael Schumacher singing softly in the live broadcast, the fans sitting in the audience also sang along. This shot has also become a classic image of this F1 Korean Grand Prix.
After Lee Hyori left the stage, 99 children from Jeollanam Province appeared on the stage wearing traditional Korean clothes. Kim Taeyeon appeared in the center of the stage wearing a pink gauze dress. Kim Taeyeon also has long blonde hair today. Standing in the center of the stage, Kim Taeyeon is particularly eye-catching, like an exquisite Barbie doll.
Seo Joo-hyun, who was sitting in the audience, saw Kim Taeyeon’s solo stage appearance for the first time. She pulled her mother Yoo Hye-young’s arm and said, “Oh mom, Taeyeon and Unnie are so beautiful today.”
The members of the Wonder Girls group were a little dissatisfied, complaining about Kim Taeyeon, “Obviously she sang the traditional Korean folk song “Arirang”, but she deliberately didn’t wear hanbok, and her hair color is similar to Sunye Unnie. This is not intentional to compliment our Wonder Girls. Is it hot? Those who didn’t know would have thought that today was her personal stage.”
Min Sun-ye came forward to reassure other members, “Don’t say that. After all, the F1 race is an international event. The Korean clothes worn by children in Jeollanam Province can already highlight our Korean culture. Kim Taeyeon wears long skirts to reflect the fusion of Eastern and Western cultures.”
After the singing of “Arirang” was completed, the highlight of the opening ceremony came next. South Korean President Song Woo-seok delivered an opening speech.
“Dear guests, ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon everyone. After careful preparations by Formula One Racing Company, Hyundai Sports and Jeollanam Province, the first F1 Korean Grand Prix will be held on time.”
After finishing her performance, Kim Taeyeon did not leave, but walked to the VIP seating area carrying her long skirt. Hyundai Sports invited these idol groups and singers to attend the opening ceremony of the F1 Korean Grand Prix, and Hyundai Sports also gave these performers tickets to the F1 Korean Grand Prix.
Kim Taeyeon didn’t expect that her seat was actually the VIP seat with the best view. When Kim Taeyeon sat down in her seat, she noticed that she was sitting in the back row of the ABS TV commentary booth, and the seats two rows in front of her. They are Michael Schumacher and Chen Xinyu, the special commentators for the F1 race on ABS TV. Song Yi sat next to Bernie Eccles, and was only one row away from Kim Taeyeon.
Kim Taeyeon felt a little cold while sitting in her seat, and the wind started blowing on the playing field. Song Yi, who was talking to Bernie, noticed that Kim Taeyeon was shivering and gave instructions to his secretary Jiang Xiuna.
Kang Soo Na walked over to Kim Taeyeon and handed Kim Taeyeon a leather jacket. Kim Taeyeon said thank you and put the suit on. Kim Taeyeon put her hands into her jacket pockets to keep warm, and suddenly she found a hotel key card in her pocket.
Kim Taeyeon’s heart sank. This jacket was handed over by Jiang Xiuna, so this leather jacket most likely belonged to Song Yi. Song Yi left the room key in his coat. Could it be that he was implying that she didn’t need to rush back after watching the game? He would wait for Kim Taeyeon’s arrival in the hotel room?
Song Woo-seok’s speech has ended, and Kim Taeyeon, who is worried, applauds along with others. She has no intention to watch the F1 race now. What she is worried about now is how to get rid of her agent, and then go to the hotel to meet Song Yi (end of chapter)
