He Sold Dried Fish… Then Built Samsung

Samsung wasn't always a technology giant. Long before smartphones, TVs, and Galaxy devices, Samsung started as a small trading business in Korea. In 1938, Lee Byung-chul started a tiny company selling and trading goods such as dried fish, noodles, and local products. There was no Galaxy. No smartphones. No giant electronics empire. Just a small business with a big ambition. So how did that tiny trading company become one of the most powerful technology companies in the world? This is the incredible story of Samsung — from its humble beginnings and early struggles to electronics, televisions, semiconductors, smartphones, and global domination. But Samsung's story isn't simply about technology. It's about risk. Ambition. Competition. And the ability to completely reinvent a company. From a small trading store... to a global empire.
