Kim Cheol-soo, who received a call from a person, headed to a nearby cafe.
At the wedding, she put on makeup and had her hair styled, but now that she’s back to her normal self, few people recognize her.
Except for one reporter who bothers to follow along.
Kim Hak-dong.
Age 45.
He was an entertainment reporter who retired from a large newspaper and now runs a small online newspaper.
For some reason, he followed her around, but since he never once published a malicious article, he just watched quietly for the time being.
“I heard you did a good job on the subway?”
Cheolsu Kim watched the video he handed over.
It seemed like someone had filmed the scene where Han Jeong-hwa was saved.
It was only briefly introduced in the media a while ago and not covered in detail, but Kim Hak-dong seemed to have even secured the video.
“What do you want?”
“I will write a good article.”
“No, not that one. Why does she keep following me around?”
Kim Hak-dong scratched his head and said in response to Kim Cheol-soo’s direct question.
“What can I say? “Do you feel like you’ll hit the jackpot if you’re next to this person?”
“Well, there’s nothing to do. “I am just an employee at a company.”
“haha···.”
“I guess there is another reason. What is it?”
“Isn’t it rare for an ordinary person to become the son-in-law of a conglomerate family?”
“Well, it doesn’t happen often.”
“I want to cover some of that daily life.”
Kim Cheol-soo waved his hand at Kim Hak-dong’s request.
“You know that’s an unreasonable request, right?”
“Or even invest in our company.”
Kim Cheol-soo snorted and answered.
“Did you bring your business plan?”
“Oh, that’s it.”
Kim Cheol-soo, who was looking at Kim Hak-dong in confusion, picked up the mobile phone that was vibrating on the table.
It was my first time seeing this number.
Kim Cheol-soo stood up holding his cell phone.
“Daily reporting is absolutely not allowed. If you want to receive investment, bring a proper business plan. then.”
After receiving his promise once more, Kim Cheol-soo received his cell phone.
– yes. This is Manager Kim Cheol-soo of Hanyoung General Trading Company.
– ah···. hello.
It was a familiar voice.
– It’s Han Jeong-hwa. The other day on the subway… Do you remember?
You can’t get both.
Han Jeong-hwa returned to Seoul after finishing the funeral for her father.
I ran around for days trying to borrow money, but it was all in vain.
I don’t know where the rumor came from, but the rumor that the company he runs will soon go bankrupt has already spread widely throughout the financial world.
Even third-party financial institutions did not provide loans.
With a credit loan of 45 million won that my husband received, I was barely able to cover the salaries of my employees, but I couldn’t see any way forward.
Han Jeong-hwa eventually contacted Hanyoung Electronics.
I will accept the existing conditions.
– There is a time when a proposal is made. I refuse.
However, Managing Director Choo Seong-tae rejected her proposal.
It was clear that the intention was to take over a bankrupt company without spending a single penny.
Han Jeong-hwa felt like she was standing on a cliff.
After the phone call with Managing Director Seongtae Choo, I took out the business card I had kept in my wallet.
In a way, it was her last resort.
– great. Um, could you come over here at 7pm tonight? Let’s talk while eating together.
Kim Cheol-soo came out favorably, and for Han Jeong-hwa, who was struggling in the swamp of despair, it felt like a rope had come down from the sky.
Quiet Chinese restaurant.
Han Jeong-hwa arrived a little early and checked herself in the bathroom once again.
The employees who had been through hardships and hardships with her for nearly five years still believed in her and were still working hard.
This was possible because Han Jeonghwa and her employees were all aware of the product’s possibilities and potential.
Only by investing funds quickly and improving the product could the company survive and surpass its competitors.
‘Let’s make sure to get the investment money.’
Han Jeong-hwa looked at herself in the mirror with a stern expression, reaffirmed her resolve, and then moved into the restaurant.
**
“invest?”
6pm.
Choi Hye-na listened to Kim Cheol-soo’s words.
“huh. “It’s a pretty good company, but I think it’s having serious financial difficulties.”
Choi Hye-na did not have the slightest doubt about Kim Cheol-soo’s insight.
This was because he knew almost all of the company’s achievements.
“If you say you’re okay, it’s really a nice place, right?”

“It’s going to be really okay.”
“Invest, then. “No matter how long it is.”
Kim Cheol-soo shook his head at Choi Hye-na’s words.
“You should invest, not me.”
“huh?”
“Because it’s his money.”
Choi Hye-na rested her chin and looked at him quietly.
If it’s a good company, it doesn’t matter who invests in it, so why should you invest only in yourself?
Choi Hye-na, who was looking at Kim Cheol-soo who was smiling for a while, opened her mouth.
“What are you thinking?”
“You’re not thinking anything?”
“Mr. Lee. Are you going to keep taking it out?”
“hmm···.”
Kim Cheol-soo paused for a moment and then opened his mouth to her threat.
“You are my father-in-law’s daughter.”
“however?”
“I found out that Hanyoung Electronics and that company were intertwined.”
“Hoo, really?”
Choi Hye-na’s eyes widened as if she was curious.
“I think if I get caught in the middle, I could be in a lot of trouble. But I don’t think there will be any problem if I invest as I am not officially affiliated with the Hanyoung Group.”
If Kim Cheol-soo had handed over investment funds in his own name, Hanyoung Electronics could have attacked him in various ways.
In particular, it was also the location of Executive Director Choo Seong-tae, who tried to use Park Dong-gyu to expose him to corruption.
Choi Hye-na, who pondered Kim Cheol-soo’s words, nodded after a while.
“Because my eldest brother already doesn’t like me. It would be best not to give him anything to attack. good!”
She nodded cheerfully.
“Now then, let’s go to the meeting place.”
“huh?”
“I have dinner plans for 7 o’clock.”
“what? So you’re saying you were confident you could persuade me? “Is this guy really scary?”
“Brother, what’s wrong with you? “I’m younger.”
“What!”
“I’m one year younger.”
The two giggled and headed towards the entrance.
**
Han Jeong-hwa came in, and Kim Cheol-soo and Choi Hye-na stood up.
Completely different from what I saw on the subway, Jeonghwa Han came dressed like a career woman.
Han Jeong-hwa also quickly glanced at the two.
Aside from the fact that Kim Cheol-soo had made an appointment, he was a bit curious as to why a beautiful woman with a great sense of fashion had come to this event.
“This is President Han Jeong-hwa. Nice to meet you.”
“You know, this is my wife.”
Han Jeong-hwa’s eyes, which were full of doubt, changed.
It was said that if she was Kim Cheol-soo’s wife, she was a direct descendant of Hanyoung Group Chairman Choi Kyung-hoon.
“Nice to meet you, Jeonghwa. “My name is Choi Hye-na.”
The two women briefly shook hands, and the three sat down at the table again.
“Do you like Jajangmyeon or Jjamppong?”
“yes. “I like Jjajangmyeon.”
Kim Cheol-soo, who called the waiter and finished ordering, had a brief chat with Han Jeong-hwa.
“Did you receive the award well?”
“yes. Thanks to this, I was able to avoid major disloyalty.”
As Han Jeong-hwa bowed her head several times with an expression of sincere gratitude, Choi Hye-na asked Han Jeong-hwa with a curious expression.
“What happened?”
“yes. It was embarrassing, but when I heard that his father had passed away, I lost my temper and tried to jump on the train. “This person stopped me.”
Han Jeong-hwa talked about what happened at the subway station, and Choi Hye-na looked at Kim Cheol-soo with surprised eyes.
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
“Well, even things like that…”
Choi Hye-na looked at Kim Cheol-soo with strange eyes.
He was a person who was secretly greedy and had great sense of wit and use of his brain.
His acting skills were so good that sometimes it was hard to tell his true feelings, and he was a person whose facial expressions were not easily revealed.
So there were times when I was worried because I didn’t know what he was thinking.
Looking at him saving people in such situations, we could see that he was basically a very kind person.
I can’t believe this person is her husband.
I felt confident and proud.
When the three of us started talking naturally, the food we ordered came out.
“Now, let’s talk slowly while eating.”
Han Jeong-hwa nodded slowly at Kim Cheol-soo’s words.
We talked for about 5 minutes, and they were both very nice people.
The daughter of a chaebol family and her husband.
The sight of him naturally inhaling Jjambbong without any discomfort felt rather unnatural.
The two ate eagerly as if they were really hungry, and Han Jeong-hwa, who had no appetite for a while due to business, suddenly became hungry when she saw them eating.
The tension suddenly disappeared, and I hungrily ate the black bean noodles.
Once his stomach was somewhat full, Kim Cheol-soo slowed down his eating pace and observed Jeong-hwa without making it noticeable.
There’s a lot he wants to say, but he looks disappointed because he can’t get it out.
And the dark eyes seen from people who worry a lot.
From his memory, she was a woman who had made a name for herself as a fairly successful businesswoman before she returned to the past.
But how did we end up in this situation?
I wasn’t sure if I had succeeded by overcoming such a difficult situation, or if the current situation had changed because of me.
The important thing is the clear fact that this situation is a very good opportunity.
“How much do you need?”
Kim Cheol-soo, who was stirring the remaining ingredients in the bowl with his chopsticks, asked as if it was no big deal.
Han Jeong-hwa, who was swallowing Jjajangmyeon, was startled by a sudden question, and Choi Hye-na brought her tissues and water.
“Okay, thank you.”
Han Jeong-hwa suppressed a cough while drinking water and quickly converted the amount in her head.
“With about 1.5 billion, you can completely normalize the company, and with 700 million, you can get out of the crisis.”
They said that 700 million won was a debt and that an additional development fund of 800 million won was needed.
“How much is the capital?”
“It’s 2 billion won.”
“You invested quite a lot of money.”
“yes. “My parents and in-laws gave me a lot of help.”
“You were able to invest like that because you trusted Jeonghwa, right?”
At those words, Han Jeong-hwa’s nose wrinkled without realizing it.
If she collapsed, she could become a water ghost and drag her parents and in-laws into the abyss.
Choi Hye-na quietly watched Han Jeong-hwa wipe her tears with her hands.
‘If you reveal your weaknesses like that, you will only become delicious prey.’
“There are no loans from banks, right?”
“yes. “Branches that were showing good will suddenly stop lending altogether and are trying to collect.”
Han Jeong-hwa spoke honestly about her situation.
If I got rejected here, there was really no way I could do anything about it.
“All of a sudden… Hmm, is there anything suspicious?”
In response to Kim Cheol-soo’s question, Han Jeong-hwa sighed and said.
“Hanyoung Electronics tried to acquire our company. “But there was a poison clause, and after rejecting the contract, bank loans were suddenly blocked.”
It was a method used by large corporations to devour small businesses with potential.
Pressuring banks to stop lending.
Even though it was an action that was criticized, it was a method that could be used by corporate groups that put profits first.
Choi Gyeong-jun and Hanyoung Electronics, who already consider themselves a thorn in their eyes.
In a way, they set traps and used all kinds of tricks to steal the prey they had caught.
‘If I had come forward as an investor myself, I would have sued Hanyoung Electronics for breach of trust.’
Kim Cheol-su thought so and nodded.
“If we invest 1.5 billion won, how much equity can you give us?”
Choi Hye-na was a businesswoman who ran Blue House.
And since 1.5 billion was quite a lot of money, I wanted to hear more about business from Han Jeong-hwa.
But Kim Cheol-soo seemed almost convinced.
Confidence that this business will definitely succeed.
Choi Hye-na held back her doubts and turned her eyes to look at Han Jeong-hwa.
Han Jeong-ha realized that he was standing at a crossroads.
Here, the investment money will only come out if they allocate a share that they can understand.
If there was another alternative, I would have tried to compromise, but if I got rejected here, it would have been the end.
“How much do you want?”
In fact, Kim Cheol-soo wanted to completely take over that company.
It was a well-deserved situation.
However, I had no idea whether I would be able to capture an outstanding businessman named Han Jeong-hwa if I acquired that company.
Ultimately, the most important thing in business is people.
Kim Cheol-soo turned his gaze and looked at Choi Hye-na.
“How much should I charge?”
At Kim Cheol-soo’s words, Han Jeong-hwa and Choi Hye-na’s eyes turned to Kim Cheol-soo at the same time.
“Are you really asking me?”
“huh. “What do you want to achieve from the company and people?”
In response to Kim Cheol-soo’s question, Choi Hye-na paused for a moment to understand what was being said, and Han Jeong-hwa understood what he was saying right away.
Are you looking to acquire the company entirely, or are you looking to invest in exchange for a certain amount of shares?
“Can’t I get both?”
Choi Hye-na answered.
“If that is the investor’s intention.”
Kim Cheol-soo nodded at her words and turned his gaze to Han Jeong-hwa.
Then he opened his mouth again.
“How much share can you give me?”
Kim Cheol-soo asks again.
Han Jeong-hwa quietly looked at Kim Cheol-soo.
This wasn’t just a question.
It was not my intention to simply invest money and make money.
The saying that wins people.
‘You probably don’t know anything about me? ‘Why?’
It was clear that he wanted a level of stake that would satisfy him and the other party.
How much is enough?
Han Jeong-hwa thought for a while with a perplexed expression.
“ah…”
Only then did Han Jeong-hwa realize.
The true meaning of whether you will acquire a company or a person.
This meant that there was no intention to change the management no matter how much stock was given.
In other words, he meant that he would continue to serve as president.
Choi Hye-na turned her head to look at Kim Cheol-soo with a puzzled look as she watched Han Jeong-hwa’s expression change every moment.
‘What did you do? ‘I just don’t understand?’
However, Kim Cheol-soo was smiling with a strange expression.
‘also. I guess I quickly realized what it meant. He’s a good person. He is a person who has the qualities to succeed as a businessman.’
Han Jeong-hwa soon hardened her expression and opened her mouth.
“I’ll give you 60%.”
If the investment of 1.5 billion won is made, the capital of Jeonghwa Environmental Science will be 3.5 billion won.
If so, the stake of the investment of 1.5 billion is 43%.
However, attaching 17% to it and giving over half the stake was quite good treatment.
Of course, since it is a company that would not be surprised if it went bankrupt right now, they might have received less.
However, Kim Cheol-soo did not call right away.
“Even though the investment money has alleviated the situation, it seems like the biggest problem is there. Do you know what that is?”
Han Jeong-hwa nodded at Kim Cheol-soo’s words.
“yes. “There are no sales channels in place.”
“Do you have any means in mind?”
Han Jeong-hwa looked into the eyes of Kim Cheol-soo, who asked quietly.
I need to change the boss
“What I can say categorically here is that our products are the best in the world. Neither German nor Chinese products can match the products I made. We have patents for related technologies and excellent technologies. “The employees are very loyal, and they still follow me.”
Han Jeong-hwa expressed confidence in Kim Cheol-soo and Choi Hye-na.
“After overcoming all kinds of adversity to launch the product, perhaps through word of mouth, even similar products made in China began to be sold in the market. “Because the quality of their products is poor, they are putting all their effort into marketing.”
“hmm.”
“So, although the sales channel has not yet been opened, we have already thought of potential locations.”
“Where is it?”
“It’s home shopping.”
Choi Hye-na nodded lightly.
“Housewives watch home shopping a lot.”
“that’s right. “After all, the people who buy steam cleaners are housewives.”
Cheolsu Kim also nodded and asked a question.
“We know how to do it, so why couldn’t we implement it?”
“I was looking for a capable host. Then a funding problem arose. There will definitely be good news once the funding issue is resolved.”
It looked completely different from what it looked like in the beginning.
I was confident and had a clear plan.
Even his eyes had changed.
I looked at Han Jeong-hwa, who looked so different that I wondered if a person could change like this in an instant, and I nodded gently.
I liked her.
“If we hire a competent host, we can definitely sell it well. “If it’s a world-class product, word of mouth will spread quickly.”
Kim Cheol-soo also nodded more loudly at Hye-na’s tone of voice, which contained a little more confidence.
“Do you have any hosts recorded?”
“yes. Mr. Song Do-yoon is a quite capable host in the home shopping industry.”
“Song Do-yoon…”
Of course Kim Cheol-soo was a stranger, but Choi Hye-na spoke as if she had thought of something.
“You’re the one advertising kimchi on home shopping these days, right?”
“As expected, you know very well. that’s right.”
“They say he has a good sense of humor, is good at attracting people, and if he advertises, it always sells out?”
“That’s right, it’s really the best.”
Choi Hye-na suddenly started chatting with Han Jeong-hwa, and Kim Cheol-soo just listened quietly.
After waiting for their conversation to somewhat end, Kim Cheol-soo opened his mouth.
“Hye-na, shall we proceed with this investment?”
“Of course. “I really like Han Jeong-hwa.”
Choi Hye-na answered as if there was nothing more to think about, and Han Jeong-hwa’s expression brightened greatly.
Kim Cheol-soo said while looking at Han Jeong-hwa.
“great. If so, I will proceed with this investment. “We will meet again tomorrow to write the contract, and the funds will be delivered directly after the contract is completed.”
This was what I really wanted to hear.
Han Jeong-hwa’s eyes became red again.
She turned her head and wiped her eyes again with her hand, and Choi Hye-na, seeing that, quietly spoke.
“Let me just say one thing as an investor.”
“yes. “Hyena.”
“I know this well because I am also a business owner, but don’t show your emotions like that in front of business partners. In the end, they all become weaknesses. From the standpoint of investing a lot of money, I wish Jeonghwa was a more solid person. “It will be disappointing if it continues like that.”
Choi Hye-na’s words, which may seem cold in some ways, stopped tears from Han Jeong-hwa’s eyes, and Kim Cheol-soo turned his head to look at Choi Hye-na.
Although she tends to do as she pleases, she was actually well-known at one time as a successful designer in France.
After coming to Korea, he was a capable businessman who bought land in a prime location in Gangnam at a low price and built buildings to make a profit.
He may be small in scale, but he has the qualities of a businessman.
After listening to Han Jeong-hwa’s story today, I was convinced that my thoughts were not wrong.
“···Thank you for the advice, Hye-na. I won’t disappoint you in the future.”
“yes. “I really hope so.”
