Obviously, Lee Jaerong didn’t understand what Mr. Park meant.
With a smile, Mr. Park explained, “If even we know that Jiadian Group wants to deal with us, do you think that he has any hope of success?”
“How confident must Su Yang be to think that he can deal with us even if it’s in public?”
Mr. Park’s two rhetorical questions made Lee Jaerong’s eyes flicker with thought. After a moment, he nodded. “You have a point.”
Mr. Park concluded, “So, Su Yang must have two motives for doing this. Either he’s trying to muddy the waters to take the opportunity and observe the situation, determining who are our allies and enemies.”
“Otherwise… He has another objective and is trying to create a diversion…”
This world was always a game for smart people, because those who were not smart would have already been eliminated during the waves of elimination processes. Thus, those who could become tycoons did not have to have outstanding talent and intelligence themselves, but their advisors would all be smart people.
Therefore, after Su Yang’s series of actions, although it caused quite a stir in Korea, whether it was Samsung or Mr. Yoon, they could roughly guess that Su Yang had another motive.
However, Su Yang had too many resources in his hands and his achievements were too impressive. Hence, even though he had only entered the venue, the other parties did not dare to make any moves.
At that moment, Su Yang finally made his first move. He used the proper channels to get through Korea’s import and export trade and imported Xiaopeng and Future’s cars to Korea.
Moreover, these cars were not just local cars. They were the first batch of electric cars that had been powered by the first batch of Jiadian’s batteries.
This type of car had completely broken through the limitations of traditional electric cars. It had become a new type of car that was comparable to petrol cars. Furthermore, it had less consumption and was more environmentally friendly.
Korea had the same subsidies as other countries for electric cars. Therefore, although there were many cars, they were not expensive. In order to seize the market as soon as possible, Xiaopeng and Future even produced cheap and normal cars according to Su Yang’s request.
The subsidies from the two cars directly broke the base price of electric cars, and countless people of Korea were tempted.
At the same time, Su Yang struck while the iron was hot and contacted all the TVstations to advertise. Other than that, Su Yang also actively purchased and rented a store in a bigger shopping mall so that Xiaopeng and Future could start to take root in Korea.
New energy vehicles that broke worlds suddenly entered the Korea market, leading to the stock price of one of Korea’s five biggest companies to plummet.
Hyundai was one of Korea’s five biggest tycoons. The company’s annual output is 92 trillion won, about 18% of Korea’s gross domestic product. Its exports are $22.1 billion and 15.4% of Korea’s total exports.
Not only was it Korea’s biggest automobile company, it also involved shipbuilding, cars, buildings, electronics, machinery, steel, shipping, insurance, finance, and refining. Thus, it was considered a true giant.
More than 10 years ago, it had even surpassed the number one tycoon of Korea.
In recent years, Samsung had developed too quickly, and it had stolen it’s superior’s throne.
However, the pitiful thing was that it focused on cars. Therefore, after Su Yang released the new energy battery in the first half of the year, its stock price had been weakening. Now that Su Yang had entered the Korea market, the market was not optimistic about its future.
If they could not get Su Yang’s authorization, then Hyundai would be severely pressured.
If the market did not look good, the share price would plummet.
When they saw that their company’s stock was falling, the people from Hyundai had a headache as well. It was not that they had not heard of Su Yang wanting to eliminate Samsung.
In their eyes, neither of them were good people. One was Su Yang, who invented the new energy battery, and the other was their competitor.
These two families loved to fight each other to the death, and both sides suffered heavy losses. This way, Hyundai could sit back and reap the benefits.
In the end, they did not expect that when the eldest and second eldest fought, they would lose their third brother…
‘Those two companies can fight on their own, but why would they fight for the automobile market?
‘You could import your cell phones over if you want to eliminate Samsung, or even snatch Samsung’s market demand for LCDs and semiconductors. Yet, why the heck are you fighting over the automobile market?!’
Just as they were having a headache over this matter, something even more troubling happened. After Xiaopeng and Future’s car models were released from the market, Su Yang started to openly look for global partnerships.
According to the recruitment notice issued by Jiadian Group, they decided to look for partners in various countries other than Asia to develop new energy vehicles together.
This overturned stone had caused thousands of ripples to form. Everyone knew that Su Yang had the most advanced technology in the world. However, Su Yang never had the spirit of sharing and working with outsiders.
Now that Su Yang had opened up their cooperation, the car companies from all over the world could finally have a share of the profits.
In particular, companies like America and Germany were ecstatic. Although their cars were considered the best in the world, Japanese cars and Korean cars were not to be underestimated.
They had been eyeing these markets for a long time, but they had no chance.
Now that Su Yang had openly declared that he would not authorize it to the Asian countries, the competitiveness of his company had increased. In that case, they would be facing the huge market left behind by Japanese and Korean cars.
For example, some luxury car companies, such as Porsche and BMW, had to use the latest technology to locate their brands. Previously, they had been coveting the technology for the luxury cars. Now that Su Yang was finally willing to share it with them, they quickly sent representatives in hopes of working together.
As for the fact that Su Yang’s technology was not authorized to other companies in Asia, there was no doubt about it. However, Su Yang rebutted them.
Su Yang said straightforwardly that it was to pave the way for Xiaopeng and Future so that the market would not be seized by others.
This reason was reasonable, and no one could find fault with it.
However… The smart people would not believe him.
Whether it was Lee Jaerong, Mr. Park, or Mr. Yoon, all of them knew that Su Yang was targeting Hyundai.
Moreover, they finally understood what Su Yang’s next target was…
Just as Su Yang’s words caused an uproar in the world, a notification finally rang in his mind.
[Ding! Gold Mission: Road To Zenith (5) completed. Please check your reward.]
After arriving in Korea, Su Yang would secretly check on the progress of the Gold Mission whenever he was free.
Looking at the difference of a few thousand people, Su Yang felt that every day passed felt like a year.
Now that the fifth Gold Mission was completed, Su Yang heaved a sigh of relief.
This mission that had troubled Su Yang for almost a year was finally completed after “Wandering Planet” and “Wolf Warriors 2” were released, coupled with the “chaos in Japan”.
This also meant that Su Yang had affected the development of ten million people.
This achievement made Su Yang feel like he was a saint…
However, as the number of people increased, Su Yang realized that the entertainment industry was less helpful for missions.
In the past, when the number of people needed to be influenced was low, the entertainment industry was the most convenient method to gain influence.
However, as the number of people required increased, Su Yang had to find another way to solve the problem of the natural base of the entertainment industry.
The way out was already in front of him: to formulate policies for those whom he wanted to influence and make them happier.
This required Su Yang to have the power to formulate such policies…
In other words, he needed to control a country.
Fortunately, Su Yang had already made plans for this method of collecting coins. For example, Yemen, which was completely controlled already, Salabar, which was gradually being controlled, or Korea, which he was currently plotting against.
In Su Yang’s opinion, as long as he controlled these countries and implemented policies that were beneficial to the people’s livelihoods, he would be able to obtain a steady stream of coins and the number of people influenced.
Whether it was a new Gold Mission or a Platinum Mission, they could be easily completed!
Of course, this was all part of Su Yang’s plan. However, because he was still progressing, there was no hurry. At that moment, his priority was to add a point to the system and see if there were any good functions or items to be received after that.
With that thought in mind, Su Yang left the Clown Sea Serpent and Zhao Licheng in Korea while he boarded the plane and returned to the country.
Back in Shanghai, Su Yang returned home and entered the virtual space, where the little monsters had already gathered.
With their previous experience, they had long moved the items in the virtual space to Socot Island.
However, compared to last time, the little monsters were not acting like they were facing a great enemy. Instead, all the little monsters working in the human world were still there.
After all, the last time Su Yang added a point for the system, the virtual space did not change much.
After confirming the name list for this “vacation”, Su Yang brought the little monsters to Socot Island.
Arriving at Socot Island, Su Yang released the little monsters and allowed them to play freely. Then, he walked into the forest deep within Socot Island and opened the system to check on the Gold Mission.
Opening the system, there was a yellow flash on the system interface. It was obviously the notification for completing his Gold Mission.
Su Yang clicked on the notification, and a notification rang in his ears.
[Ding! Gold Point +1]
‘I’ve obtained another Gold Point again!
‘Finally, I can upgrade the system once more!’
With that thought in mind, Su Yang raised his head and looked at the top of the system. As expected, after obtaining the Gold Point, the system interface had a translucent [+] symbol.
Without any hesitation, Su Yang clicked on the translucent [+] symbol.
With the addition of points to the system, Su Yang’s body suddenly burst out with a blue light that swept across the entire Socot Island.
If the light that the system gave off before was akin to a star, this time, it was akin to a bright moon!
The blue glow rippled like water and spread into the distance. Wherever it went, all the creatures started to mutate.
For example, the Gold Coconut Tree that was planted on the shore, its entire body began to glow with a golden light. Apart from that, the Blood Cotton began to reproduce crazily, and the blood on its body became even more vibrant. Also, the tuna fish that had grown wings in the sea before now flapped its wings and flew into the sky like a bird…
Many other creatures underwent miraculous changes.
The scariest thing was that when Su Yang added a point previously, it would only affect Socot Island. Even if it expanded, they would only extend to one or two nautical miles. However, that time, the influence kept on expanding like there was no limit.
Meanwhile, Su Yang had no idea how big the impact was and was especially worried when he saw the mutated living beings moving out.
As a student who had taken the college entrance exam two years ago, Su Yang did not return whatever biology-knowledge he had learnt from high school to his teacher. He knew how much damage foreign species would cause to the environment.
This was especially true for the mutated species that he had “catalyzed” with the extra energy that he had added. It was probably a killer weapon. No matter which creature touched it, it would not pose a threat.
In the end, it might turn into a relentless killing machine. Therefore, Su Yang could only send Little Deeny a message to ask her to deal with the matter as much as possible along with the other little monsters.
Not long after, the blue light returned to Su Yang’s body.
Just like the previous few times, the blue light that seeped into Su Yang’s body condensed into a huge net that wrapped around something inside Su Yang’s body before turning into a blue cocoon.
With his previous experience, Su Yang called out to the system and looked at the timer.
’96 hours…
‘A total of four days.
‘Compared to the last time, this is actually acceptable.’
After confirming the timer, Su Yang tried his abilities again. Just like before, he could still use all his abilities.
‘According to Spirit Building’s research results, the system is just a “device” that allows me to quickly use spiritual energy. After it issues a reward, it’s actually combining the spiritual energy of the abilities into my body.
‘This means that all of the abilities belong to me, so even if the system were to cease to function, they will still exist’
After testing it out and confirming that there were no problems, Su Yang contacted Little Deeny and Spirit Building immediately. He wanted to ask them how they were doing and whether the mutated creatures had escaped.
In the end, the first thing Su Yang heard after the call was bad news.
Little Deeny said, “Master, I just used the satellite to take a look. The range that the blue light spreaded out is extremely wide. It has already enveloped the whole of Hawaii now!”
