[307]Me too. 4
“So, these words came directly from my uncle’s mouth?”
“That’s right. It’s strange that you didn’t hear me shouting at you to leave the house. “Exactly.”
On his way to work in the morning, Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seok started talking like a waterfall as soon as he saw me.
“Director Jin Gyeong-jun and Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki had a private meeting in the study, and it was as if they had declared that they would give everything to their eldest son. They said they were saying that they would not give them any subsidiaries, let alone affiliates. Stay with your brother and help him with his work… . “Isn’t this what it means?”
“The people who heard it outside the study are probably working people… .”
“These days, the vice president has been asking me to run a lot of errands, so the servants… . Oh, sorry. “My old speaking habits have come out.”
Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seok scratched his head.
This is what they called the employees who were merely personal errand boys under the name of the strategy team. farmhand.
If you forget that I was once a servant, I remind you like this.
“You mean the strategy team members heard from the housekeeper?”
“yes. “The ladies start chatting even if you provoke them a little.”
“So? “What did Kyungjun do?”
“I left the study and left the house.”
“I love Youngjun hyung to death.”
“I heard your wife liked it more? She showed a friendly attitude toward her aunts like never before. “Hehe.”
Is it because of what happened to me? My uncle was too much.
Even if you put something in his hand and comfort him, it wasn’t going to work, so he just told you to take care of his brother, so it was worth running out of the house.
“Did you happen to know where it went?”
“yes. “A member of the strategy team quickly followed.”
Assistant Manager Kim became more and more meticulous.
“Where did you sleep?”
“This is Gangnam Sunyang Hotel.”
“is it so?”
And among the many hotels, Sunyang?
There is no way the hotel staff wouldn’t know the name Jin Kyung-jun, so it’s like advertising where he is.
Who are you advertising to?
“Let’s go there.”
“yes? Ah, I understand.”
The car rushed to the hotel.
When I arrived at the hotel, a manager was waiting.
“welcome. “Director.”
“I don’t know if I’ve been causing you trouble since morning.”
“He says all kinds of things. There is no need to worry if you contact us in advance. “I prepared it as you said, but I don’t know if you will like it.”
“I’m eating breakfast. Is there anything you like or don’t do?”
Guided by the manager, we went up to the top floor restaurant.
Since it was only open in the evening, there was no one there, but the spicy smell of stew was in the air. I sat down and checked again.
“Did you drink a lot yesterday?”
“The room service staff said that when they took the bottle of wine and the food, it looked like they had already drank all the alcohol in the minibar.”
“I feel a little sick. All right.”
The manager bowed his head and stepped away, and I called the room.
I answered the phone after a while, probably because I was drunk.
“Come up to hang out. “I prepared something spicy.”
– where are you?
I must have completely sobered up.
“Take the elevator and go up to the top. “Let’s eat breakfast.”
– How did you know I was here?
“All employees of Sunyang Group understand. Did you think there wouldn’t be rumors? Did you advertise it to your heart’s content? come fast.”
After about ten minutes, Jin Gyeong-jun, looking haggard, slowly walked in.
“Did you put a magnet on it?”
“What is a magnet… . “You weren’t waiting for me?”
“Why am I waiting for you?”
“Or should I go? Do you want to eat breakfast alone?”
“You can’t even get breakfast? “Why are you eating here?”
Jin Kyung-jun sat down across from me.
“We don’t use people. Just fill it up with cereal or toast. “Minyoung doesn’t have the skills to make breakfast yet.”
“Is this because you are a newlywed? Don’t feel bad for no reason and use people. Is it okay to go without food? “It’s all about making a living.”
“Instead, I don’t want to drink alcohol because I’m upset like my brother.”
Jin Kyung-jun glared at me for a moment and then took out a cigarette.
“It’s true that it was attached with a magnet. “There’s nothing I don’t know.”
When I had smoked my entire cigarette without saying a word, the food came out.
After seeing the hangover soup and soybean paste stew, Jin Gyeong-jun started to drink the soup in a hurry.
As if to relieve his sore stomach, he lit up a cigarette again.
“I guess you made a deal? “The results wouldn’t have been very good.”
“Did you come running all morning to check that?”
“no. “I want to tell you not to hesitate if you need my help.”
“Start by telling me how I can help. “I will make the choice.”
“Choices can only be made by those who have a little bit left. My brother has nothing left. What if my uncle doesn’t give me anything? Even if you go all in on Youngjun, he has to just watch.”

Jin Gyeong-jun, who glared at me for a while after hearing my cold words, said.
“I have nothing to give you. Like you said, I have nothing. Father’s weakness? Youngjun’s flaws? It’s piled up so much. But it’s all private. “I’m not in danger of being the subject of gossip.”
He’s still full.
Or maybe you just don’t really want the company.
It is Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki’s bloodline. It’s as if you were born with a set of gold spoons in your hands. A guy like that has nothing. He doesn’t even know what he has.
“Then the story is over. I have no intention of giving you anything for free. Oh, eat a good breakfast this morning. “Because it’s the last free meal I’ll give you.”
I left the restaurant without looking back.
“hey! Dojun. Jin Do-jun, man!”
He called desperately, but he didn’t turn around.
Now you need to be fully aware of your situation. Only then will you realize what you have.
* * *
Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seok did not miss out on Jin Gyeong-jun’s movements. It is said that he spent several days drinking at the hotel, had a huge fight with Jin Young-jun, who came to the hotel, and even cried loudly in front of his father, Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki.
This makes one thing clear.
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki’s decision was firm, and his eldest son, Jin Young-jun, has everything.
They must have decided that they would not be able to stop my offensive if they were divided into the electronics and industrial products divisions.
“Is that so?”
“yes. “We will push ahead with the succession process.”
“Suddenly I feel sorry for Gyeongjun?”
Chairman Lee Hak-jae’s face showed no trace of pity. Rather, it was an interesting expression.
“Now that I know I’m broke, the only one I can rely on is me.”
“Oh, really?”
A son betrays his father and brother. This is a common story seen in dramas and novels.
step… !
In an ordinary family, that can happen.
The younger brother, who lost everything to his older brother and became penniless, grits his teeth.
But this family is different. Even if my brother takes everything, there will be at least tens of billions of won left over.
A huge sum of money that ordinary people cannot even dream of. Start by taking care of that as a basic level. It is true that there does not seem to be any need for my father or older brother to stand next to someone who grinds his teeth.
“Of course not. As soon as Kyungjun came to Korea, I met him first. Of course, I scratched some things first… . “Anyway, the first thing they did was check whether the succession work had begun.”
“Oh my. Whether this person or that person is greedy… .”
“Is it only in our family? “That’s how the world has changed.”
It is said that a mountain of civil lawsuits has piled up over the parents’ only asset, an apartment.
They fight each other by their hair to get control of rural fields worth less than tens of thousands of won per pyeong.
These people also claim priority, saying they are the eldest sons, and hope to share them equally, saying they are equal children.
We just have different units.
The size of greed is no different between ordinary people and conglomerates.
“so? What do you plan to do?”
“If Kyungjun gives me what he has, I plan to make him a salaried CEO. “If you lack ability, you will be fired.”
“What does he have? “If Youngjun takes over everything, it’s a mess.”
“There is something quite useful. “He is the son of Vice Chairman Jinyoung-ki Jin.”
“what?”
Chairman Hakjae Lee tilted his head as if he couldn’t understand.
“Not right away, but there will come a time when it will be necessary.”
“I wonder what kind of plan they have… one. You’ll take care of that, and from what you’re saying, it looks like you’re planning on leaving Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki’s succession process as is… .”
“I’d like to discuss that. “Isn’t the current shareholding structure iron-clad?”
“Judging is simple. All you have to do is hold a general shareholders’ meeting for electronics and products right now. Because your shares are enough to convene an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders. And look at the agenda for the shareholders’ meeting. The CEOs of the electronics and product divisions were dismissed. Will I pass?”
“Not right now.”
“Then it is Cheolongseong Fortress.”
“What if? “What if Jin Young-jun becomes chairman?”
“Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki’s friendship will be shaken a little, right? “Because Youngjun is still not trustworthy.”
“That’s right. “Wouldn’t Cheolongseong be a little weaker?”
“hmm… .”
The biggest problem is that the succession process is rushed. We need to build a solid shareholding structure by slowly increasing the number of affiliates and subsidiaries over time, but we are rushing to see the collapse of the shaker.
Separation and succession work are carried out simultaneously. It definitely gets more sloppy.
“I’m definitely going to try to finish it by next year, so I’ll have to watch closely.”
Next year is the presidential election.
No one knows what will happen if the government changes.
If a government that is not pro-chaebol comes into power, it will interfere with the succession process at all costs. Maybe we’ll end up paying exorbitant taxes.
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki knows very well that he must deal with this quickly under the current administration, which has strong pro-chaebol tendencies.
“yes. Changes in shareholding structure must be thoroughly checked. Of course, we will continue to secure shares.”
Chairman Lee Hak-jae had a relaxed expression.
It seems like they think they have already won.
The one who runs away in a hurry is always going to get caught.
Hurrying means being chased, and in a fight between the chased and the pursuer, the pursuer always wins. As long as you don’t let your guard down.
Working hard to secure shares means not letting down one’s guard.
* * *
“There is only one thing I can promise you. “There will definitely be opportunities.”
Jin Gyeong-jun, who had suffered greatly, was speechless.
“Even if we can’t take advantage of that opportunity, we will at least give it to a couple of mid-sized affiliates. “I will be able to act as a father, passing on a few companies to my children.”
“Are those opportunities fair?”
“It’s not fair. “If you show half the ability of others, I will give you the position of CEO.”
“That place, electronics or industrial products… No, at least you are sure that it is the main affiliate?”
“of course. He’s my cousin, so I wonder if he’ll match his assortment to show off… .”
Take a long sigh and take time to think.
Even so, nothing will change.
“good. “What should I do instead?”
“Absolute obedience.”
“what?”
Jin Kyung-jun rolled his eyes and shouted.
“I’m sorry for saying this. But I tried to think of an expression that would sound reasonably good, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t find one. “The only word that most accurately expresses my thoughts is obedience.”
“This kid is really… !”
It’s already late.
The fact that he sat at the same table with me again showed his determination to take advantage of the practical issues rather than abandoning his brother and father.
Do you spend your whole life acting like your brother’s hand and foot?
Or, it is a choice to bow down to your cousin and take care of everything for yourself.
After serving as the CEO of Sunyang Electronics for about five years, he took over a couple of affiliates and became independent. Isn’t it a temptation that’s hard to refuse?
I threw another temptation to him who had his pride hurt.
“I won’t let you hear that I’m the one who betrayed my family. You will only get a lot of sympathy for being the abandoned second son. “That’s my way.”
The venom in Jin Gyeong-jun’s eyes that was glaring at me gradually disappeared.
