[295]Are we getting along well? 6
“But you even remember my name?”
Jihoon Kim said, looking a little curious. He will think that it was just a fleeting relationship. It’s not easy for me, who goes back and forth between school and the library regularly, to even remember his name after briefly seeing his face during an exam.
“I’m the one who made you come here today. “It’s even weirder that I can’t remember.”
“what?”
“Financial Investigation Department of the Central District Prosecutors’ Office. This is a powerful position where anyone in Korea can look into the account. “Who do you think put you in this position?”
Ministry of Public Security, Special Department and Financial Investigation Department.
It is the third-highest position in the Central District Prosecutors’ Office.
Of course, it’s not that Kim Ji-hoon’s school grades are lacking, but it’s a position that only a prosecutor with at least two years of experience can apply for. Are there just one or two prosecutors who graduated from Seoul National University with good grades? However, Kim Ji-hoon occupied this position from the first day of his prosecutorial life.
The financial investigation department was curious as to who Kim Ji-hoon’s associates were, but no matter how much they searched behind him as he was from the countryside, all they found were orchard farmers and the vice-principal of a rural school.
Kim Ji-hoon, the person involved, was also surprised when he received the order.
I had expected that the Central District Prosecutors’ Office Criminal Division would be the best position, but how could I not be surprised when I was suddenly appointed to a key position?
It’s not that I didn’t think about what might happen. Among his classmates, the grandson of Korea’s greatest conglomerate was the only powerful person he knew. But the depth of the relationship is too shallow for that. No, it is more accurate to say that there is none.
But when I spoke with a smile in front of him, he must have been so shocked that he couldn’t even keep his mouth shut.
“If you feel offended or hurt your pride because of what I did, please tell me. I’ll move you to the place you want. “If you throw a punch just to imitate a drama, I’ll sue you for assault, so relax your fist.”
He, who was still unable to speak, managed to open his mouth.
“Was it you? My bag that everyone was curious about… ?”
Prosecutor Kim Ji-hoon looked back with an expression of regret. It is obvious that high-ranking people are watching through the double mirror, so they pay attention.
“are you okay. no one is here. “I asked in advance to talk quietly with you.”
He shook his head and flopped down on the chair across from him.
“What? “Is there something you need to talk about quietly with me?”
“Child, before that, if you like the position, shouldn’t you at least say thank you?”
“It’s not like I thought about it as a motive. Didn’t you put me here because you thought there might be a time when you might need it? “Doing what you want is a hundred times better than talking.”
“I’ll show you with actions rather than words, okay? “Are you going to do whatever I want?”
“Listen. Prosecutors who side with conglomerates are out of shape. “Hehe.”
It’s the same as the first time.
When we first met in front of the library, Jihoon Kim had such a friendly tone and attitude that I didn’t even feel awkward.
It’s still the same now. It felt natural, as if I had met a classmate who I had met only a few times in school but was very close to.
“Rather than that, tell me why you did this. What? “Are you paying taxes because your money is rotting and you have nowhere to throw it away?”
“Even if you try to eat and die, there is no point. Where in the world is there money to throw away? “It’s such a waste that I’m crying tears of blood.”
“Then why did you do that? Surely it’s not like Noblesse?”
“It’s a family matter. “Don’t ask, did you review it?”
“Children. How can you see that huge amount in three days? The manager said the same thing. Sunyang Jin Do-jun is putting on a show, so keep your mouth shut with the National Tax Service!”
Jihoon Kim tapped the pile of documents he had put down.
“Then there’s nothing more to do, right?”
“What do you add to the conglomerates who pay 600 billion won in taxes they don’t have to pay? “The manager will make an announcement expressing his praise for Jin Do-jun’s decision.”
There is nothing more for the prosecutor’s office to do. Now, driven by public opinion, it is up to the National Tax Service to review the gift procedures of the two uncles.
“Then shall we talk about my business now?”
He nodded and listened.
“I invested 60 billion of the company’s money in foreign derivatives. And I ate it all up. To make up for it, I managed to borrow money by using the company’s bills. “Is this enough for the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office to attack me?”
“Seeing as how you wasted 60 billion won, it’s not you. “If I had earned 60 billion won, it would have been you.”
“Jin Taejun. The eldest son of Vice Chairman Jin Jin-gi. Executive director of the financial division of Sunyang Construction and Heavy Industries. He is my older cousin. He is five years older.”
Kim Ji-hoon seemed a little excited, as if his blood as a prosecutor was starting to flow. He took out a notebook and put a ballpoint pen in his hand.
“eldest son? “Do you only have a son?”
“No, I have an older sister. My name is Jin Soo-kyung, and I am two years older than you. Below is younger brother Jin Seongjun. “They haven’t gotten involved in group work yet.”
“Is 60 billion alone? Or do you know Vice President Vibrator?”
“single. “Otherwise you wouldn’t have come to bring me money.”
Jihoon Kim’s hand, which had been diligently scribbling, stopped.
“Are you the one who gave me the money?”
“huh.”
“Then the bill is also in your hands?”
“okay. “The bill of exchange is the clue.”
“What kind of clue is physical evidence?”
He put the pen and notebook into his pocket. Since there is solid physical evidence, there is no need to understand the circumstances.
“What should I do?”
“How far can you go?”
“I don’t think it will work out the way you want, and it’s within the scope of my abilities and authority.”
What a strange guy.
It seems that the conglomerate’s side doesn’t take targeted investigations seriously.
Was this guy a corrupt prosecutor?
Was he the type of person who dug up all kinds of black money in the financial investigation department and took bribes to cover it up?
“Why do you look like that?”
“Oh, no.”
Prosecutor Kim Ji-hoon said with a chuckle.
“why? “Is it strange that I answered so obediently that I would do it?”
“No.”
When I held out my hand, he stopped laughing.
“What if I say I can’t do it because it’s obvious that you’re using the prosecution for your family fight? “You will meet with the District Prosecutor’s Office and seek another knife, and the prosecutors of our Financial Investigation Department are all career-oriented, so won’t you join us in doing the same?”

“Someone else is going to do it anyway, so you’re going to do it yourself?”
“That’s the way it is.”
“So you’re also a career-oriented prosecutor? what do you want? Prosecutor General? Minister of Justice?”
He shook his head.
“I want to call it a success. But I don’t have that dream.”
“What does that mean again?”
“As for civil servants, if you have a clear dream, you will work hard.”
“huh?”
“I’m not chasing a dream, I’m just chasing a dream. If my goal is to become president, I will only look for key positions. If you go to the criminal department, you won’t do any work and will just lobby or say hello to change positions. Then you’re out.”
“Hehe, civil servants must be sincere?”
“yes. “That is the first step to success.”
“Then do you want anything from me?”
Jihoon Kim looked into my eyes and slowly opened his mouth.
“Not now. “I’ll tell you later if it happens.”
“Does that mean you might never want anything again?”
“You don’t know that. Ah, there is one.”
“what?”
“Don’t change my position as you wish. Before asking your superiors, check with me first. Going to another place without understanding the meaning is now a no-go. “Hehe.”
“You don’t like puppets?”
“I make the decisions and choices. “You can help me when I’m out of strength.”
“good. “Let’s do that.”
Jihoon Kim stood up again, gathering his documents.
“Do you think I’ve wasted enough time with this and the story I’m going to talk about is almost over?”
“okay. “Please do what I ask you to do well.”
“60 billion?”
“huh.”
“How far are you selling that? Just by looking at it, it looks like a threat?”
“that’s right. The district prosecutor will tell you when you need to stop. “Once the deal is reached with the creditors, it’s over.”
Jihoon Kim nodded and held up the document.
He said as I was about to open the interrogation room door and leave.
“Hey, but you… “Did you put powder on your face?”
* * *
“He suddenly became a national hero. I’m paying taxes again that I missed using a trick… .”
“Iknow, right. Anger over tax evasion comes first… .”
“That anger is being poured out on your uncles. Anyway, congratulations. From today onwards, you have become a public enemy to the chaebols. Public opinion is growing that the inheritance tax and gift tax for conglomerates should be completely reexamined. “Hehe.”
Chairman Hak-jae Lee is the only chairman of a large company who has nothing to do with taxes. For him, this incident is just a misfortune across the river.
“You go. Please take a good look at what the Sunyang headquarters is like now and then come talk to me. “I also have to go to the prosecution for investigation.”
“Are you meeting the district prosecutor?”
“okay. Since the Commissioner of the National Tax Service said he was coming, I should meet him and bow my head at least once. “I’m sorry for bothering you.”
“Instead, I paid 600 billion won in taxes, so the hassle will be worth it.”
Although everyone was satisfied with it, there were some people who were dissatisfied and expressed great dissatisfaction.
It was Jinyoung-gi and Jinyoung-jun father and son.
* * *
“I ruined everything because of that bastard. “You suddenly do something crazy like this.”
Although the National Tax Service has not yet taken any action, Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki is now using the same method as when he took over the group.
As the third-generation succession process is being discussed little by little through the media, whatever the intentions of crazy Jin Do-jun, the National Tax Service has no choice but to observe them closely.
“father. Lee Hak-jae also appeared to be investigated by the prosecution. “What if the prosecution says something useless?”
“I spoke to the president. Since it is voluntary tax payment, there will be no expansion of the investigation. only… .”
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki spoke to Director Baek Jun-hyuk.
“How is it going now?”
“First of all, the transfer of shares was held. The National Tax Service may closely investigate changes in Sunyang Group’s shares. “Once this wind stops, we will proceed again.”
“okay. good job.”
Jinyoung-gi let out a long sigh and slowly opened his mouth to the people discussing it together.
“Vice President Jin Dong-gi will have a hard time getting out alive. There is also talk that he has already become the target of the prosecution’s intensive investigation… . “The fact that we are on the verge of bankruptcy and are being attacked by the National Tax Service and prosecutors means that the government has turned its back on us.”
Those who could be said to be Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki’s closest associates secretly relaxed.
This is not a request to bring everything to the collapsing Vice President. I think people will tell you to be careful and not get hit by debris.
“So I thought about it carefully… . “I think it would be a good idea to separate the branches at this point.”
“Ah, father… !”
At least he said he was his son.
The rest even bit their lips to stop the noise from coming out. Instead of taking care of yourself, you build a wall and run away!
“Look at the products. The amount of damage alone exceeds 200 billion won. “I don’t manage it, but the risks are the same.”
“But father. “If Sunyang splits, its ranking in the business world will drop significantly.”
“A company is not a place to play with rankings.”
“It means that the influence is less.”
“Those who ate up Sunyang’s money are still the same. As long as they are alive, our Sunyang’s influence will not change. And Director Baek.”
“yes. “Vice President.”
“Make your own expansion plan with the former’s own funds. First, let’s buy a few affiliates of the same group and acquire other companies that may be of use. Then wouldn’t it be easier to control affiliates?”
“If Sunyang Electronics acts as a holding company for other affiliates, the governance structure will be more solid. In addition, many companies are struggling with financial difficulties due to the financial crisis originating in the Middle East and the United States. Stock prices have fallen a lot, so now is the best time to hunt for companies.”
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki looked satisfied with Director Baek Joon-hyuk’s positive response.
“Look at Daehyun. It was completely split up, but as the automobile group grew, most of it was eventually absorbed. “We also need to learn Taesik Joo’s methods.”
Contrary to Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki’s confidence, only one thought came to the minds of his associates.
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki may be afraid of Jin Do-jun.
