The Great War (1)
Li Enxi’s companions had become arrogant, their arrogance possibly outweighing even AK’s ability to suppress it.
“I advise you to apologize to us quickly. When Chairman Li arrives later, you won’t even have the chance to apologize.”
“Enxi, when your dad gets here, don’t say anything. Just hit them directly, and after you’re done hitting them, make them apologize.”
“That’s right, he must know how powerful we Koreans are. What’s wrong with us pretending to be Chinese? It’s their honor!”
……
Yang Chen crooked his finger, and a bodyguard immediately stepped forward, grabbed the hair of the girl who said it was an honor for them to impersonate Chinese people, and slapped her repeatedly until her face was swollen and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth before stopping.
Now, not only Li Enxi and her group were shocked, but other tourists were also shocked. Someone actually started hitting people here, which was a bit much.
The local uncle quickly said to Yang Chen, “Young man, you can’t fight here. This is a place for us to worship and pray.”
Yang Chen: “I know, but she deserved to be hit. I have to hit her. I will explain to your Crown Prince.”
The beaten girl cried and said to Li Enxi, “Enxi, it hurts so much, it hurts so much! You have to avenge me. Wuwu… When Chairman Li arrives later, you must make him teach him a lesson.”
Li Enxi said angrily to Yang Chen, “You really deserve to die! How dare you hit my friend in front of me. When my dad comes, he will never let you go. You are dead; no one can save you!”
Yang Chen: “You are too noisy, especially your mouth is the most *jian* [a derogatory term implying shamelessness or obnoxiousness]. Someone, beat her like this too.”
The bodyguard immediately stepped forward, grabbed Li Enxi, and started slapping her repeatedly.
Now the other tourists couldn’t stand it anymore, especially the staff responsible for maintaining order couldn’t sit idly by, and quickly stepped forward to stop them.
At this time, the bodyguards stepped forward, blocked the staff, and warned them not to interfere.
Yang Chen said loudly, “Just pretend you didn’t see anything, I will explain to your Crown Prince. These Korean women are impersonating us Chinese people, ruining and smearing our reputation. I must teach them a lesson and let them know that Chinese people will not allow them to touch or smear us!”
After a dozen slaps, Li Enxi’s face was so swollen that it was unrecognizable.
The Korean women were completely frightened and became honest, all huddled together shivering.
Koreans may be the most annoying people in the world. People all over the world dislike them, and both men and women are annoying.
After a while, Li Zaiheng arrived with a dozen bodyguards and followers.
Li Enxi and others saw that their backer had arrived, and quickly ran over to greet him, crying.
Li Zaiheng was heartbroken when he saw his daughter beaten like this.
“Enxi, who beat you like this? Who?” Li Zaiheng shouted.
Li Enxi pointed at Yang Chen and said, “He told people to beat me, Dad, you have to avenge us. It really hurts so much, it hurts me to death. Wuwu…”
Li Zaiheng gritted his teeth and walked towards Yang Chen aggressively.
The bodyguards immediately surrounded and protected Yang Chen in the middle, and Li Zaiheng’s bodyguards also quickly ran forward to protect him.
Li Zaiheng pushed away the bodyguard in front of him and roared, “Have the guts to come out and talk!”
The bodyguard made way.
Yang Chen walked out.
Li Zaiheng’s eyes were full of resentment, and he roared: “Who gave you the guts to dare to hit my Li Zaiheng’s daughter! I order you to kneel down and apologize to my daughter immediately, otherwise I will make you die miserably!”
Yang Chen: “Your daughter and her group of bitches were yelling here, and when people reminded them not to make noise, they said they were Chinese and that Chinese people are like this, and they can do whatever they want when they finally go abroad. Since you are her father, then you can explain what this behavior is all about.”
Li Zaiheng turned to look at his daughter, and Li Enxi immediately quibbled: “I was just saying it casually, and I didn’t mean anything special. Besides, even if I said something, he can say whatever he wants about us Koreans, but he can’t hit me. Dad, are you right?”
Li Zaiheng nodded, agreeing with his daughter’s point of view.
“My daughter and her friends are impersonating Chinese people, you can also impersonate Koreans! Why did you hit her?” Li Zaiheng said angrily.
Yang Chen smiled disdainfully and said, “Who doesn’t know that you Koreans are hated all over the world? How stupid would I have to be to think about impersonating you? I don’t want to talk nonsense with you, and I don’t bother to argue with your daughter, but you are her father, you have to bear all the consequences for her actions. I will now give you a chance to make amends: immediately apologize to all the Chinese people present. Otherwise, you won’t be able to leave Riyadh!”
The surrounding Chinese tourists quickly took out their mobile phones to take pictures. They were very curious about who this awesome Chinese person was, who dared to confront the Korean *chaebol* [a large industrial conglomerate] here, and even dared to say that the Koreans would not be allowed to leave Riyadh.
Li Zaiheng naturally didn’t believe that Yang Chen had such strength, and asked with a smile: “Who do you think you are? Not letting me leave Riyadh? Do you know what my relationship is with the Crown Prince? Do you know what kind of cooperative relationship we have with the Saudi American Group? I should be saying this to you: if you don’t kneel down and apologize to my daughter, don’t even think about leaving Riyadh!”
Yang Chen: “Is that so? Then I won’t waste my breath with you. I gave you the opportunity, but you didn’t cherish it. There are too many people here; let’s find a place with fewer people to ‘practice’ [a euphemism for fighting].”
Li Zaiheng: “Am I afraid of you? Let’s go, let’s find a place to ‘practice’!”
Yang Chen put his arm around Maya and left, with bodyguards tightly surrounding them, not allowing anyone to approach.
Li Zaiheng put his arm around his daughter and comforted her: “Enxi, don’t worry, Dad will definitely avenge you. Later, let the bodyguards beat them up first, beat them until they are convinced, and then let them kneel down and apologize to you.”
Li Enxi nodded and said with a grievance: “Dad, I believe you will definitely avenge me.”
Li Zaiheng nodded, then looked at Yang Chen again, his eyes full of hatred.
Soon they came to a relatively open place, where there were fewer people.
Yang Chen and Li Zaiheng both thought this place was good, and they ordered their bodyguards to take action.
The bodyguards responsible for protecting Yang Chen were all masters among masters, while Li Zaiheng’s bodyguards were all good-looking but useless. The two sides immediately determined the outcome in one encounter. The bodyguards of Xingchen Defense [Starlight Defense, the name of Yang Chen’s security company] obviously moved faster, more ruthlessly, and more accurately, and almost all of them could knock down their opponents with one move.
I thought the two sides would fight for a while before they could be separated.
But I didn’t expect the battle to end in just over a minute.
Li Zaiheng’s bodyguards were all knocked to the ground, and each bodyguard of Xingchen Defense was pressing on one, successfully controlling the situation.
Li Zaiheng and others were shocked when they saw it. They didn’t expect the gap between the two sides to be so big.
Now it was embarrassing. All the bodyguards he brought were knocked down, and Li Zaiheng was scared.
Yang Chen asked with a smile: “What do you say, are you apologizing now, or are you going to be beaten?”
Li Zaiheng is the chairman of the Korean National Petroleum Corporation after all, so he would definitely not be so easily frightened into submission. Even if he was really scared, he couldn’t easily submit, otherwise how would he face his countrymen when he returned home?
So Li Zaiheng immediately replied: “Apologize? You hit us, and you still want us to apologize? Wait, I will make you regret it immediately!”
Li Zaiheng immediately called Uraka, the CEO of Saudi American Group, and asked Uraka to bring people over to rescue him immediately.
The Korean National Petroleum Group and the American Group are indeed partners, and Uraka must protect Li Zaiheng’s safety, so he immediately hung up the phone and rushed over.
After more than 20 minutes, several cars drove over.
The car stopped by the side of the road, and Uraka got out of the car and walked over in a hurry.
Li Zaiheng said with a smug smile: “My partner is here; he is the CEO of Saudi American Group, you have the guts to beat him too!”
Yang Chen: “He didn’t provoke me, why would I beat him? However, it’s useless for him to come; he can’t protect you. Besides, whether he helps you or helps me is still up in the air.”
Li Zaiheng: “What do you mean?”
Yang Chen: “You will know soon.”
Uraka recognized the bodyguards of Xingchen Defense and thought: “Li Zaiheng wouldn’t have had a conflict with Yang Chen, would he? If he has a conflict with Yang Chen, then I can’t help him.”
Soon Uraka walked up to him and confirmed that Li Zaiheng had offended Yang Chen.
Li Zaiheng quickly greeted Uraka with a smile and said, “Mr. Uraka, you are here. We have been partners for many years. This is your place; you have to help me. This Chinese man is really too hateful. Look at what he has done to my daughter and her friends. I just came to ask him for an explanation, and he knocked down all my bodyguards, and now he even wants to beat me. Mr. Uraka, you have to help me teach him a lesson.”
Uraka smiled awkwardly at Yang Chen and said, “Mr. Yang, we meet again.”
Yang Chen: “Mr. Uraka is here to help him?”
Uraka is not stupid; how dare he offend someone who the Crown Prince treats politely.
Not to mention Li Zaiheng, even if Li Zailong, the chairman of the Two Stars Group [Samsung Group], came, it wouldn’t work.
Uraka quickly explained with a smile: “Mr. Yang, don’t misunderstand, I just happened to be passing by here and saw that there were many people here, so I came over to see what was going on. The matter between you has nothing to do with me, and I don’t want to participate at all. You continue, don’t mind me, I’ll just watch the excitement from the side.”
Yang Chen nodded with a smile and said, “Very good.”
Li Zaiheng was stunned again. The savior he personally called said he was passing by here to watch the excitement?
“Mr. Uraka, what do you mean by this? You are not going to help me?” Li Zaiheng asked in confusion, even with a little anger.
Uraka explained: “This… some things are not convenient for me to say clearly; anyway, let you solve the conflict between you, I don’t want to get involved anyway.”
Li Zaiheng said angrily: “Then do you want me to contact the Crown Prince?”
Uraka replied with a smile: “That’s up to you; if you want to contact the Crown Prince, I can’t stop you. But I can tell you in advance, it’s useless for you to contact the Crown Prince; you should discuss with Mr. Yang how to resolve your conflict.”
Li Zaiheng calmed down, thought carefully, and then asked: “Who is he? You seem to be a little afraid of him.”
Uraka: “What, you have fought with him like this, and you don’t know who he is?”
Li Zaiheng: “I don’t think it’s necessary to ask who he is, because he beat my daughter like this; no matter who he is, he has to kneel down and apologize. So I didn’t ask.”
Uraka was also a little speechless by Li Zaiheng’s blind arrogance, and he immediately said: “This is Yang Chen, the boss of Xingchen Defense Group; do you know Xingchen Defense Group?”
Li Zaiheng was shocked; they actually provoked Mr. Yang of Xingchen Defense Group; this is a big trouble.
However, Li Zaiheng thought carefully that his daughter was beaten like this, even if it was the boss of Xingchen Defense, Yang Chen, he had to apologize, at most he didn’t have to kneel.
Li Zaiheng: “Mr. Yang, I’m very sorry; I didn’t know it was you. However, you beat my daughter and her friends like this; you still have to apologize. I will at most let you not kneel; this is my bottom line; I hope Mr. Yang must be sensible.”
Yang Chen directly cursed: “What the hell are you? What qualifications do you have to ask me to be sensible? You still want me to kneel? Okay! Now you and your daughter have to kneel down and apologize to the Chinese people, otherwise this matter is not over.”
Seeing that Yang Chen didn’t seem to be joking, Li Zaiheng once again brought out the Crown Prince.
“Mr. Yang, I am good friends with the Crown Prince; there is no need to call him over, right? It’s not good for everyone.”
Yang Chen: “Are you threatening me? You call the Crown Prince; you just say that you have a conflict with me, and see if he comes to help you.”
Uraka interjected: “Chairman Li, give up struggling. The Crown Prince is good friends with Mr. Yang, and he also gave the American Group’s shares to Mr. Yang. If you want the Crown Prince to help you deal with Mr. Yang, I think you might as well imagine that oil can grow in kimchi [a traditional Korean side dish], it’s more realistic.”
Uraka’s words were also quite *sun* [caustic or sarcastic], which made Li Zaiheng speechless.
The Crown Prince has given the American Group’s equity to Yang Chen, which is enough to show that the relationship between the two is indeed very unusual.
Li Zaiheng no longer expects to make Yang Chen apologize; he just wants to avoid being forced to kneel down and apologize by Yang Chen.
So, the Crown Prince still has to be found, but not to deal with Yang Chen, but to ask him to help mediate.
Li Zaiheng walked aside and called Shalaman [Salman], explained the situation here to Shalaman, and finally said that he wanted to ask Shalaman to help mediate.
Shalaman is not a fool; impersonating Chinese people to deliberately smear the image of Chinese people, Yang Chen will definitely not let it go; at this time to help Li Zaiheng intercede, it is equal to deliberately opposing Yang Chen; after all, who can tolerate people from other countries smearing their own country?
Therefore, Shalaman felt that the best choice was to pretend that he didn’t know anything, and the trouble caused by Li Zaiheng’s daughter should be solved by herself.
Shalaman: “I am meeting with the US delegation, and I can’t spare time to help you. You should discuss and solve it, and then find me if you can’t discuss it.”
Li Zaiheng: “Crown Prince, if you don’t help me, then I can only tear my face with him. If there is a large-scale conflict in Riyadh at that time, it will not be good for you. Even, if it rises to the diplomatic level, it will be very troublesome for you at that time. Isn’t it?”
Shalaman: “We’ll talk about it then. However, you said one thing right just now; I think you can ask your embassy for help, and let your embassy contact the Chinese embassy to seek reconciliation. Do you understand what I mean? I’m busy; I’m hanging up.”
Li Zaiheng was stunned again; wouldn’t he really have to ask the Korean embassy for help?
That would be too embarrassing!
If this is spread back to China, how will he see people in the future?
Being cleaned up abroad and having to rely on the embassy to come forward to return home, wouldn’t he be laughed at for the rest of his life?
But……
If he doesn’t ask the embassy for help now, it seems that there is no other way.
