Lotte Group is one of the five largest groups in South Korea and one of the world's top 500 multinational companies

Currently, with a globalization strategy, it is booming in nearly 20 countries around the world in retail, food, tourism, petrochemical real estate and finance fields.

The Lotte World Building in Seoul, with a height of 555 meters and a total of 123 floors. It is a large landmark building in the central area of ​​Seoul. It has the grand spirit of world-class buildings and contains the traditional beauty of South Korea. It symbolizes the harmonious coexistence of human beings and cutting-edge technologies and nature. With its unique charm, it has added another glory to the history of world architecture.

The main body of the building is similar to the slender four-sided cone shape. The construction plan of the building is to be used as the underground parking lot, the 1 to 12th floors underground as a large OUTLET mall, the 14 to 38th floors as office areas, the 42 to 71st floors as commercial and residential dual-purpose rooms, the 76 to 101st floors as Lotte Hotel, the 105 to 114th floors as private office areas, the 117 to 119th floors as art galleries, and the 119 to 123rd floors as public tourist areas

The headquarters of Lotte Group is located here, and major branches also have special office reception areas here.

Whether it is Lotte Supermarket or Lotte Duty Free Shop, they are actually only part of Lotte Group

However, as China's consumption capacity becomes stronger and stronger, and the popularity of Korean wave in China, these two industries are currently the industries with the highest growth rate and the most considerable revenue of Lotte Group.

Lotte attaches great importance to this promotional advertisement for Lotte Duty Free Shop. It can be said that Lotte's duty-free shops in South Korea are basically supported by Chinese tourists.

Based on the first quarter of 2016, the proportion of Chinese tourists' consumption accounts for 708% of the total sales of Lotte Duty Free Shop, with consumption reaching 942 billion won, far higher than the 283.4 billion won for South Korean locals and 39.9 billion won for islanders.

Before the outbreak of THAAD, the proportion of Chinese tourists' consumption in total consumption even increased to 75%

This is not a small business. The overall consumption of Chinese tourists alone exceeds 20 billion yuan. It can be said that if Chinese tourists do not come because of tension in China-South Korea relations and reduce consumption, the Lotte Duty Free Shop can go out directly

After the incident of THAAD entering South Korea officially broke out, the revenue of Lotte Duty Free Shop fell by half, with a monthly loss of up to 600 million yuan.

In 2016, their profits were directly exceeded 5 billion yuan. From this we can see their dependence on the Chinese market

However, it was also discovered that the THAAD storm is getting bigger and bigger, and Lotte decided to increase its publicity efforts, especially in advertising in China.

So SuperJunir, who once had Chinese artists and was very popular in China, invited Gao Yuanyuan to shoot a promotional film together

Originally, EXO was the most suitable, but now all the Chinese members have defected to become young and handsome, so in the end, they decided to choose SJ, who has been famous for more than ten years and has a relatively reasonable price.

Gao Yuanyuan has always had a good popularity in China and is also very famous in South Korea. Therefore, she was invited to serve as an endorsement fee of up to five million yuan at a high price.

The five-million endorsement fee is a bit too bad for the big Mimi and others, but that's because Qin Tian cheated them and allowed them to get endorsements from top international luxury brands, and a lot of resources have hyped them up.

Before Qin Tian entered the market, they received endorsements at most at this price. For example, 58.com, the endorsement fee was only 2 million yuan.

There are only a few really tall actresses

However, Gao Yuanyuan is going to breach the contract now, which is a bit too much. After all, everything is ready now, but Dongfeng is not allowed to do so.

Although Gao Yuanyuan simply paid Rakuten three times the penalty for liquidated damages according to the contract, and compensated Rakuten with 15 million yuan, but Rakuten was still very unhappy and angry

Minister Park Jung-kwon even threatened Gao Yuanyuan directly: Do you know what the consequences of doing this? In the future, you will be banned by our South Korean circle and will not give you any endorsements or contracts. Will you not be worthwhile in the works performed by our South Korean artists in the future?

Gao Yuanyuan said calmly and even said indifferently: This happens that I don’t want to have any cooperation with South Korea. If there are South Korean artists participating in the performance, I would rather quit.

Park Jung-kwon didn't know how to continue when he heard this. After all, they only achieved this level at most. Others were willing to pay the penalty for liquidated damages, and they were not afraid of you banning them. What else could you do?

It's impossible to use force, Gao Yuanyuan is not alone, including Qin Tian, ​​Jia Jingwen is almost ten people

However, sitting aside, watching the aura is obviously much stronger. A capable man who is nearly 60 years old suddenly spoke. He asked Gao Yuanyuan: We can not have the liquidated damages. Tell me the real reason. I want to know why?

President... This...is not in accordance with the rules. Park Jung-kwon nervously dissuaded

Shut up, you idiot! Don't care about him, I am Xin Dongbin, the president of Lotte Group. What I say can still count

The corporate cultures of the island country and the Bangzi country are actually very similar. After all, the Bangzi country itself is a copycat island country.

But there is a big difference. Although they both have the position of president and president, their meanings are different

The president of the island country is the highest position of chairman, the president is the general manager, and the CEO is the second and third position of chairman.

South Korea is just the opposite. The president is the chairman, and the vice president or president is the general manager or CEO.

So this Xin Dongbin is at least the top three big guys in Lotte

It seems that this boss also knows something, but now he just wants to confirm it.

Gao Yuanyuan naturally didn't know this very well, so she looked at Qin Tian. Qin Tian stood up and said: I am Gao Yuanyuan's agent, I can answer you THAAD in this question! This is a natural barrier between China and South Korea. Unless South Korea refuses American godfather and no longer serves as a dog for the United States, the two sides will sooner or later enter the confrontation of the ending of China's encirclement. I think President Xin should not be unfamiliar with it.

So the Chinese government has begun to take some actions, such as the Korean restriction order. Any film and television variety shows that cooperate with South Korea and South Korean artists will be banned. Even the strongest historical martial arts drama in history, which invested 1.5 billion US dollars by the Qin Dynasty, has now been banned indefinitely. Do you think we still dare to fulfill our contract?
