Park Jun-hyung opened the door to the executive office, stood there and looked around for a while.
After sharing an office with a crowd of employees, the thought of having a quiet executive office all to myself gave me immense emotion.
On the executive desk made of luxurious wood, there was a nameplate that read
Park Jun-hyung walked slowly and touched the objects in the executive room, enjoying this happy feeling.
This year, I was pushed aside by Ahn Jeong-gyu throughout the year, and things didn’t work out the way I wanted, but I ended up becoming an executive anyway.
The smile never left Park Jun-hyung’s face.
Although he was far from the human resources team and could not directly interfere with Ahn Jung-gyu, it was clear that it would not be easy for Ahn Jung-gyu to follow him, considering the large gap between the manager and the executives.
Park Jun-hyeong, who was sitting in an executive chair and boasting to himself, rang on his cell phone.
It was an international call, and it was a number I was familiar with.
– yes. This is Executive Director Junhyung Park.
– Good morning, Managing Director. This is Oh Guk-tae. how are you?
– Yes, I’ve been fine.
– I heard good news? I heard she has already become managing director.
– That happened because I was lucky.
– Hey! Congratulations!
– haha. thank you How about your newly assigned country, Nigeria?
– Oh, don’t even talk. It’s scary because they’re tall and bulky.
Oh Guk-tae was a fifth-level diplomat in the political affairs department of the Nigerian consulate.
It was mainly responsible for diplomatic negotiations between the governments of Nigeria, Sierra Leone, and Liberia.
– ha ha ha. You should always be careful.
– sure. Oh. I have conveyed the request you made earlier to Executive Director Choi.
– aha? is that so?
– yes. ha ha ha. As I am always receiving support from Director Park, shouldn’t I also do something helpful?
– I feel very reassured to have received help from Consul Oh. If I ever have to go there in the future, I’ll definitely come see you.
– Managing Director Park is visiting, so I guess I should treat him properly.
Junhyung Park hung up the phone after a cliched conversation and thought while tapping his fingers on the executive desk.
Ahn Jeong-gyu is probably anxious because of his promotion.
If Ahn Jeong-gyu had something worth gambling on, there was a good chance he would rush at it without hesitation.
If it was conveyed through Executive Director Choi, there would be no doubt.
If Ahn Jeong-gyu takes this matter and commits suicide, it will not be difficult to get Lee Jun-hak and Kim Cheol-soo under his control.
‘It’s regular, it’s regular! Even if you run, you’re a flea.’
Park Jun-hyung grinned, thinking that it was a noose he could not escape.
It’s a different perspective
General trading companies buy and sell everything.
In order to achieve results, they sometimes deal with shell companies created by drug dealers, form relationships with arms dealers, and negotiate with terrorist organizations.
There is no limit to the field.
Even corporate officials sometimes get involved in national projects such as tank or fighter jet bidding.
If you do such things for a dozen years, you may find yourself casually walking the line between illegality, legality, and evasion of the law.
No matter what illegal means are used, as long as it is not revealed on the outside, it will be recognized as ability.
Under the leadership of Ahn Jung-gyu, Sales Team 5 had an in-depth conversation about the Sani Abacha case for a while.
How to make this a success without risk.
“If you simply take the funds out, the risks will increase later, so it would be better to prepare the documents as if you were trading goods. Nigeria is still in a state of conflict, so it is difficult for the government to determine what goods were imported, and corruption is very easy to bribe. Since it is a country, it will be possible. We will only broker trade between buyers and suppliers and collect a commission.”
Several proposals were proposed, but the one proposed by Lee Jun-hak was considered the most valid.
If the documents are thorough, even if a problem arises, Hanyoung Trading Company can avoid responsibility by claiming that the transaction was made through deception.
In the past, Kim Cheol-soo told these stories from the team to Park Jun-hyung.
And when this task was almost completed, the audit office robbed Team Leader Ahn, the work was completely ruined, and Ahn Jeong-gyu took off his clothes.
“Do you have any other opinions?”
Ahn Jeong-gyu looked at Kim Cheol-soo with a sullen expression and shook his head.
‘Even though I’m a super newbie, I’m sure there’s some resistance to doing something like this.’
However, contrary to Ahn Jung-gyu’s thoughts, Kim Cheol-soo quietly raised his hand.
“Deputy Kim, tell me.”
Kim Cheol-soo saw Pyo Il-soo and Lee Jun-hak once again.
It looks like there’s something you want to say, but there’s definitely something you can’t say in front of the team leader who is so enthusiastic.
A rookie ticket that knows nothing is used in situations like this.
“I think we missed something.”
After hearing that there was something they had missed, everyone looked at Kim Cheol-soo.
“First of all, the issue of the truth of this case was not discussed.”
Ahn Jeong-gyu shook his head at Kim Cheol-soo’s words and spoke firmly.
“This came from the mouth of a truly trustworthy person. I can guarantee that.”
However, Lee Jun-hak asked a question from the side, as if he had been waiting for Kim Cheol-soo to say something.
“According to KOTRA recently, trade fraud is occurring frequently in Africa. Like Assistant Manager Kim said, we need to cross-check. Team Leader.”
Pyo Il-soo also nodded and said.
“Yes, that’s right. Team Leader, you know the saying that you have to tap on a stone bridge before you cross it?”
“Hey, kids! You don’t trust me that much!”
Ahn Jeong-gyu knocked on the table a few times as if he was frustrated and then stood up.
However, the team members’ eyes were fixed and Ahn Jeong-gyu had no choice but to open his mouth.
“Okay. I’ll give you the sauce, and Deputy Director Pyo will take responsibility and cross-check it.”
“Yes, team leader.”

Late in the afternoon, when Ahn Jeong-gyu entered the team leaders’ meeting, Pyo Il-soo called Lee Jun-hak and Kim Cheol-soo.
“Have you checked?”
Lee Jun-hak nodded at Pyo Il-soo’s words.
“Yes. The identity of the lawyer who sent the source was clear. He said he had sent an email related to it at the request of a client.”
“To whom?”
“I declined to answer that question, perhaps because of my confidentiality agreement.”
“Then, first of all, the content of the email itself is true. What about Sani Abacha’s hidden assets?”
Cheolsu Kim answered those words.
“Considering that Sani Abacha’s hidden assets, which are known to the Nigerian government, amount to $8.7 billion, the amount stated in the source is also valid.”
Pyo Il-soo said, taking a puff of a cigarette.
“There is no reason to refuse. Ah, team leader… I don’t think this is really the case.”
Lee Jun-hak also nodded and exhaled a little smoke.
If I took charge of the team and performed well for about two years, I could quickly become an executive, as I said at the last drink.
I completely understand why Ahn Jeong-gyu wanted to get involved in such a dangerous subject, but I thought he was overdoing it.
“Yes. I’m a little anxious.”
After dinner, Ahn Jeong-gyu called the team members into the conference room again and shared the cross-checked contents.
“Okay. Everyone, let’s not sit still after work, but think about how we can best resolve this matter and make a final decision tomorrow.”
**
After all the team members left work, Kim Cheol-soo remained alone in the office, lost in thought.
Who is Team Leader Ahn trustworthy enough to push forward with such a dangerous project?
Then I remembered Executive Director Choi Young-jun, who toured Africa with Chairman Choi Kyung-hoon.
I brought this case with me shortly after returning from traveling to African countries such as South Africa, Nigeria, Egypt, Morocco, and Kenya, and cultivating relationships with influential figures in each country.
‘If it was something that Executive Director Choi threw, there would be no way Team Leader Ahn could stop it.’
If he doesn’t reveal this to Park Jun-hyung like he did in the past, will he get through it safely?
Kim Cheol-soo believed that Ahn Jeong-gyu took off his clothes because he exposed the whole matter, but he was continuing to investigate this case because of something else that felt uncomfortable.
I was looking through the website of the Embassy of the Republic of Korea in Nigeria to see if there was any other news, and there was one name that particularly caught my eye.
– Oh Guk-tae.
According to Kim Cheol-soo’s memory, he had the same name as a person who had been an outside director of Hanyoung Corporation for about three years.
Looking at the face in the photo, it was clear that it was the person I had seen once while drinking with Park Jun-hyung.
‘hmm.’
Someone called out to Kim Cheol-soo, who was immersed in the screen for a while.
“Deputy Kim?”
Kim Cheol-soo quickly raised his head and saw Choi Sang-guk of Sales Team 1 smiling and waving his hand.
“Huh? Ah. Sang-guk.”
“Aren’t you getting off work? It’s past 10 o’clock?”
At those words, Kim Cheol-soo quickly looked at his watch.
“Ah! It’s time to get off work.”
“It’s not late, it’s time to get off work! Haha. As expected, Assistant Manager Kim?”
“It’s a bit strange for Sang-guk to say something like that. Please call me Cheol-su when you leave the office.”
Choi Sang-guk smiled and nodded at those words.
As they went out of the building, the two of them naturally shook their collars due to the cold wind.
“Cheolsu, you work really hard.”
“Haha. What?”
“I decided to work hard like Cheolsu and get promoted early.”
“I say it’s because I have nothing to do when I get home, but Sang-guk is a newlywed, so shouldn’t you go home early?”
“Now that I have a family, I have a sense of responsibility, and when I remember Cheolsu’s congratulatory song, I feel like I need to be more dependable. So, I’m going to work at the company without paying attention and try to do well at home as well.”
“Hahaha. That’s good. Did you enjoy your honeymoon in the Philippines?”
“Of course. Actually, my wife and I are members of Habitat, so we went and worked hard to build a house.”
“yes?”
Kim Cheol-soo’s eyes widened when he heard that he was building a house on his honeymoon.
I had never heard of a story like this before.
“I met Hyun Mi-rang while working for Habitat for Humanity in college. After I injured my leg while volunteering in Busan, I stopped working, perhaps because of the trauma, but this time I decided to do it again. And I was very satisfied.”
“Wow! That’s amazing. Doing volunteer work while working.”
Choi Sang-guk shook his head with a humble expression at Kim Cheol-soo’s words.
“Hahaha. What? I used to live a life buried in work, but when I took the time to do volunteer work, I was able to see the world from a different perspective. I think that’s what helped me get through the difficult work life.”
‘It’s a different perspective.’
Before arriving at the subway station, Choi Sang-guk talked about Habitat for Humanity, and Kim Cheol-soo also listened with great interest.
“Then see you tomorrow, Mr. Cheolsu!”
“Yes! Please go in carefully.”
Choi Sang-guk went down to the subway station and Cheolsu stood at the bus stop right in front.
Brainstorming.
It was a way to bring out creative ideas by telling stories as they came to mind without thinking about cause-and-effect relationships, the front and rear of events, or probabilities.
Through this method, a solution to a difficult problem can be obtained from a completely different perspective.
In 2003, most companies in Korea had a rigid organizational culture, so when someone pointed in one direction, everyone else had no choice but to see the finger pointed.
Therefore, the space to see things from a different perspective was bound to disappear.
Kim Cheol-soo, sitting in the back of the bus, looked out the window and was lost in thought.
‘What if we could look at this problem from a completely different perspective?’
**
next day.
“Have you thought about it?”
However, contrary to the expectations of team leader Ahn Jung-gyu, Pyo Il-soo and Lee Jun-hak were unable to move forward with the agenda that came out yesterday.
‘These guys!’
Team leader Ahn, who had tried to leave this matter entirely to Lee Jun-hak, felt frustrated because Lee Jun-hak was acting passively.
“You don’t like this that much?”
At Ahn Jung-gyu’s words, Pyo Il-soo and Lee Jun-hak nodded like lightning.
“Yes, team leader!”
“I hope you don’t do that, team leader.”
‘These guys…’
Ahn Jeong-gyu clicked his tongue inwardly and turned his eyes to Kim Cheol-soo, who was just listening without saying anything.
“Do you have anything to say, Assistant Manager Kim?”
Kim Cheol-soo, who received the right to speak, opened his mouth while making eye contact with his teammates.
“It is my opinion that if we are to pursue this, we need to look at the situation in Nigeria.”
“state of affairs?”
“Yes. Nigeria is currently in a quiet state, but it is a country where a civil war can break out at any time. It is a country where conflict between Christianity and Islam is especially severe.”
“yes.”
“Sani Abacha and his family were all Muslims, and the current government is controlled by Christian Anglicans. If the Nigerian regime puts pressure on Mariam Abacha, there is a possibility that Muslims will use that as an excuse to start a civil war.”
Ahn Jeong-gyu, Pyo Il-soo, and Lee Jun-hak widened their eyes at Kim Cheol-soo’s words.
“so?”
“I need to know her true feelings. About her purpose for fleeing abroad.”
Ahn Jeong-gyu was lost in thought for a while at Kim Cheol-soo’s words, then looked into space and opened his mouth.
“If she wants to launder money to escape government pressure, we may be able to provide another opportunity. There is also a justification for persuading the Nigerian government. If the two can reach a good negotiation, we may be able to provide Mariam’s plan.” “You can get paid for your hard work, right?”
Kim Cheol-soo smiled and nodded at Ahn Jeong-gyu’s words.
“Even if a problem arises, there will be enough justification to get out of this side, and if successful, not only will the company’s recognition in the international community rise because it has defended Nigeria’s civil war, but it will also build trust with the current Nigerian government and Mariam Abacha. Recently, in Nigeria, “As oil fields continue to be discovered, we may be able to take one more step toward oil field development based on that trust.”
Pyo Il-su, who was listening to the conversation between the two, let out a small exclamation.
“Wow! Crazy!”
Lee Jun-hak also looked at Kim Cheol-soo for a long time with a surprised expression, as if he had not thought about it at all.
Ahn Jeong-gyu also clenched his fists in joy as the frustrating issue was suddenly relieved.
‘Kim Cheol-soo, what on earth is this guy!’
Ahn Jeong-gyu said as he looked at Kim Cheol-soo, who was still humble despite telling an incredible story.
“Deputy Manager Pyo, what do you think about Manager Lee?”
Pyo Il-soo smiled brightly and nodded.
“I absolutely agree.”
Lee Jun-hak also nodded.
“This is the best method so far. And it seems better for Assistant Manager Kim to take charge of this matter.”
Lee Jun-hak, who noticed that Ahn Jeong-gyu wanted to hand the matter over to him, did not want to steal the credit of Kim Cheol-soo, who had pledged to support him, and make him his enemy.
Ahn Jeong-gyu looked at Lee Jun-hak in silence and then turned his head to Pyo Il-soo.
“Still, it’s too big for a novice assistant manager to handle. What about Deputy Director?”
“I absolutely hate Africa!”
“What? You bastard! Where are you going to take care of yourself?”
“Oh my! If you’re that worried, wouldn’t it be okay for the team leader to do it?”
“What! Man! If I had used the self-immolation technique, that would have been fine. So, Deputy Director Pyo and Manager Lee are not interested in this matter?”
Pyo Il-soo and Lee Jun-hak nodded their heads loudly, and Ahn Jung-gyu looked at Kim Cheol-soo and said.
“Assistant Manager Kim. Are you really confident?”
Kim Cheol-su shouted loudly.
“If you just leave it to me, I will do my best to make it a success, team leader!”
“Okay! Then I’ll leave this matter to Assistant Manager Kim. First, contact the Nigerian representative and tell him to contact Mariam.”
“Yes, team leader.”
When Kim Cheol-soo answered confidently, Ahn Jeong-gyu turned his gaze to Pyo Il-soo.
“Deputy Director Pyo. You’re more anxious than usual. What’s up? You?”
At those words, Pyo Il-soo smiled and took out three wedding invitations.
“I have a wedding in December. It’s a little late, but as promised, I will treat you to delicious banquet noodles. And I want to enter the wedding hall in good health. Team leader.”
“What! Suddenly?”
However, contrary to his words, Ahn Jeong-gyu accepted the wedding invitation with a smile.
“Boss Manager Lee and Assistant Manager Kim, make sure to pack big envelopes and come. If you don’t come, you will be scolded.”
Lee Jun-hak and Kim Cheol-soo also received wedding invitations and responded.
“Of course! You must attend.”
“Yes, Deputy Director Pyo!”
I think it’s possible
Lee Joon-il, CEO of Talent Career, bowed deeply when he saw President Yoo Ji-hoon entering the room.
“Hello, how are you? Boss Yu.”
“It’s been a while, CEO Lee.”
Lee Jun-il straightened his back, and Yoo Ji-hoon shook his hand and sat down on the cushion.
Yoo Ji-hoon was talking about the current situation with Lee Jun-il, and when the food arrived, he got to the point.
“Actually, I contacted you because the chairman told me to be careful.”
Lee Jun-il sighed slightly at Yoo Ji-hoon’s words.
“ah···.”
“The CEO I know would not have reached out to a promising new employee of the Hanyoung Group, but I was personally curious as to why he did so.”
At those words, Lee Jun-il opened his eyes wide and tilted his head.
“Didn’t the boss send Manager Park Jun-hyung to me?”
“Director Park Jun-hyung?”
When Yoo Ji-hoon also made an expression that he was hearing this for the first time in his life, Lee Jun-il realized that this was not something President Yoo had ordered, but that Manager Park Jun-hyung had done it on his own.
Lee Jun-il shook his head with a bitter smile.
“Oh, no. I think I misunderstood.”
Yoo Ji-hoon also noticed how this incident unfolded in Lee Jun-il’s reaction and burst out laughing lightly.
“That person is truly like a swan.”
“Swan?”
“On the outside, they look innocent and innocent, but underneath the surface, they are constantly working on things.”
“Ah, I see. I heard you became an executive this time.”
“I raised it under my authority because it is useful. However, if I show off too much, it might become a burden to hold it.”
Lee Jun-il also nodded and said.
“He seems like a bit of a dangerous person. He seems like someone you shouldn’t let too close to.”
“Hahaha. I know that. But even though CEO Lee took off his clothes because of me, I think he still feels that way. When the time comes, I think the Hanyoung Group will need someone like CEO Lee. While the Chairman is alive and well, please keep that temperament. “I hope you don’t touch it.”
Lee Jun-il smiled brightly and nodded at Yoo Ji-hoon’s words.
“We will make sure nothing like that happens in the future.”
Yoo Ji-hoon also smiled and raised his drink at those words.
“How can I forget CEO Lee, who sacrificed himself for me? He is not the type of person to run sales in such a small company. Please wait a little longer.”
Hearing Yoo Ji-hoon’s words, Lee Jun-il raised his glass with tears in his eyes.
“Boss Yu! Really, really! Thank you!”
Yu Ji-hoon raised his drink to his mouth after toasting.
‘There are so many people in the group who fly and crawl, do you think I’ll really take care of you? Park Jun-hyung, there’s no place he doesn’t get achy here and there. He must be mistaken that it is his ability to throw away the political situation and sit in that position. If Choi Young-jun collapses, he will know that he will be stripped of his clothes too. I don’t know.’
A faint smile appeared on Yoo Ji-hoon’s lips as he put down his glass.
