[071]First fight 3
Director Hakjae Lee opened the door to the chairman’s office and someone entered.
Chairman Jin, who was sitting on the reception sofa, tried to stand up when the door opened, but got stuck again.
“The Prime Minister sends an errand boy? “You’ve grown a lot.”
At Chairman Jin’s uncomfortable words, the errand boy who had been slowly walking in quickly ran to the seat next to him and bent down.
“You misunderstand, Chairman. As the situation was changing, there were many eyes watching, so there was nothing we could do. “He asked me to convey his apology.”
“Okay, okay, take a seat quickly.”
Vice Minister Kim Seong-su sat on the sofa with his head down.
“You probably know why I asked to meet the Prime Minister, right?”
“of course. President.”
“I heard that the IMF approved $55.5 billion in support. “I heard that guy who said he was a gangster or a gangster made a promise yesterday?”
Instead of answering, Vice Minister Kim Seong-su just blinked.
“you… “You don’t know, right?”
“President. Well, not because of how he knew. It happened yesterday, no, this morning… .”
“Don’t ask who my eyes and ears are, just answer me. that’s right?”
“yes. That’s right.”
“How much does it cost for the first round?”
“It’s $5.6 billion. I decided to get a blood transfusion right away.
“I don’t know where that money will be spent, but Sunyang Group should spend the $1.5 billion. Are you fine?”
Vice Minister Kim Seong-su looked embarrassed and placed his hands politely on his knees.
“President. That’s a bit… . First, I decided to release it to a commercial bank. Exporters are lining up in long lines holding letters of credit. “We must first release their financial resources to prevent further bankruptcies.”
“Are we going to save the corner stores first?”
“yes.”
“get out.”
“Shoes, Chairman.”
Vice Minister Kim was sweating coldly with only his buttocks resting on the edge of the sofa.
“Do you think I’m a fool? There are only a few days left until election day, right? “If you say you’re going to support the conglomerates, you can hear the sound of top-tier votes falling, so don’t you think they know that the plan is to first make an announcement about reviving small and medium-sized businesses?”
“Oh, no.”
“They said let’s see these… . When you’re sad about election funds, you empty my own pocket, and when you’re sad, you fill someone else’s pocket? “Whose calculation method is that?”
When Chairman Jin hit the nail on the head, Vice Minister Kim Seong-su was dumbfounded again.
“Vice Minister Kim. “Then when is the second blood transfusion?”
Lee Hak-jae, who was just watching, asked Kim Seong-su, who was in trouble, as if to save him.
“It’s the end of December. “Right after Christmas.”
“How much?”
“Two billion dollars.”
Chairman Jin slammed the sofa handle.
“Give me that at least. “Okay?”
Chairman Jin stood up as if he had finished talking.
“President.”
“why? “Do you still have anything left to say?”
“How can I promise you that?”
“Then why did you come? I dealt with you because I thought you received that much authority from the Prime Minister. If an unauthorized person has been talking in front of me all this time, just know that your career as a public servant is over. “Think carefully before opening your mouth.”
This is the moment when public officials feel the most pride and humiliation.
A man without authority.
In an organization where people are graded based on authority, not having authority means that a person is not worth dealing with.
“President. This is not something I can promise. Prime Minister too… No, not even the President can make any promises. Isn’t this only possible if the ruling party wins the presidential election and takes over the government? “If the opposition party takes power, it will be nothing more than empty fire.”
“Win! I gave you money to win. What if I don’t win even after spending that much money? “Half of the people close their eyes and always take the first shot, so you can’t beat that?”
There is no change in the election battle from a close race. The situation continues where no one can predict who will win or lose.
Vice Minister Kim Seong-su, unable to answer and not knowing where to turn, turned his attention to Director Lee Hak-jae as if asking for help.
When Director Hakjae Lee nodded his head slightly, he mustered up the courage to open his mouth.
“yes. President. “I will definitely win and repay your kindness.”
“Don’t flatter me and go. “Take care of the $2 billion and put it in my pocket.”
As Vice Minister Kim Seong-su repeatedly bowed and quietly retreated, Chairman Jin let out a sigh.
“If you see the prime minister struggling, the game is over.”
“The intelligence team’s report is close, but the opposition party is said to be slightly ahead.”
“Who is that guy who breaks the colic? “Have you met him?”
“yes.”
“what?”
“I am stubborn that I will never resign.”
“Sprinkle a lot of red pepper powder on it. Why don’t you know that it won’t work if you come out as number 3 and steal number 1’s vote? That doesn’t mean the next opportunity will come. “Aren’t you stupid?”
“No one is sane after being bullied at an election campaign. “When he sees his supporters, he is confident that he will become president.”
The two exchanged pitiful glances.
“By the way, Vice Minister Kim, why don’t you take care of that guy?”
“Even if that wasn’t the case, I put a box in the trunk of the car.”
“good job. “I go around getting scolded, but I need something to cheer me up.”
When the atmosphere in the chairman’s office became a little calmer, Lee Hak-jae cautiously opened his mouth.
“President. Can you tell me who the owner of Miracle is? “I will meet you once and ask for your cooperation.”
“it’s okay. I’ll take care of that, so you can visit the opposition camp. Just pass around a few bottles of Bacchus and say something. “If you give us $2 billion first, the Federation of Korean Industries will actively cooperate with the next administration.”

Hakjae Lee bowed his head once and left the chairman’s office.
Chairman Jin, who was left alone in the chairman’s office, picked up a piece of paper lying on the desk.
“17.7%… … .”
This is the maximum amount of equity that can be placed on a cruiser car.
17.7% influence. It is not a matter of receiving 1 billion dollars, but only giving it on the condition of exchanging currency.
Of course, they say they will put it back into the Sunyang Group after the merger, but we already know that that is not possible.
What you hold in your hand is for you to put in your pocket, not for you to return.
It wasn’t a waste. If you divide it evenly among your five children, you can give 20%. Although he is skipping his son and giving it to his grandson, he is a very qualified grandson.
However, he could not shake off the worry that was weighing heavily on Chairman Jin’s mind.
There were quite a few moments when I looked at my grandson as if I was looking in a mirror.
Once I get my hands on something, I don’t want it taken away and I know the joy of taking something from someone else.
It is clear that 17.7% is not the end, but just the beginning.
If the grandson, who is born with a temperament that puts calculations ahead of blood, targets the Sunyang Group, the remaining children and grandsons will likely become poor and be kicked out.
Of course, he will make the Sunyang Group a bigger and more magnificent castle, but the grandson will never give away the qualifications to enter the castle.
Chairman Jin shook his head.
“…Still, if you look at him taking care of his father, he’s a guy with a deep heart.”
He is thoughtful enough to make his father’s dream a reality at a young age.
You have to let go of your worries.
Isn’t it a situation where you should worry about the group before worrying about your son?
Even if it was stolen, I wanted to take comfort in the fact that it was my grandson who was the plunderer, not someone else.

“Now, these are the healthy ones. “As long as we get over this crisis well, there will be no problem.”
I took the list that Oh Se-hyeon gave me and looked at the names.
“If you look at it just from an accounting perspective, which one has the highest potential?”
“Of course I put it at the top of the list. Because the technology is good, the profit margin is high. “You don’t plan on eating it as much as you want, do you?”
“yes. of course.”
The name at the top of the list is Daea Construction!
5th place in contract ranking.
I wanted to buy Daehyun Construction, but I gave up early on it because it was the second largest business in the world and could withstand the IMF crisis through restructuring.
“Automotive and construction… . It kind of suits me. “Hehe.”
“Isn’t construction the first step toward becoming a large corporation?”
“But will Daea Construction collapse? “We have some reserves in-house and have received many orders from overseas.”
“Uncle, don’t you believe me yet? Sunyang and Daehyeon are the only places in our country that can overcome this crisis on their own. The rest are lanterns before the wind.”
“Even so, Daea Construction can survive with just a little government support!”
He did not refute Oh Se-hyun’s negative opinion.
There is no reason to covet a company that is not this healthy. And there is no need to reveal my greed.
In Korea after the IMF in 1997, an era of the mighty man is unfolding. Until now, it was a world where carnivores coexisted with herbivores in grasslands where it was difficult to hide.
But from now on, it is the era of the jungle where the few carnivores show their merciless teeth and roar.
Now that I have decided to become the king of that place, all that remains is for me to act without any rough actions.
“We’ll see.”
Leaving only these words, I stood up.
I need to finalize the merger issue with my grandfather.
I left the Yeouido office and got into a car.
“Assistant Manager Kim. “Let’s go to the president’s house.”
“yes.”
Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seok increased his speed. Due to the surge in gas prices, traffic has decreased significantly, making driving more comfortable.
“young master. “The Hansung Ilbo has followed up with what we have discovered so far and the information gathered by Team Manager Shin Seok-ho.”
“If it’s Hansung Ilbo, is it from a family that will be in-laws?”
“yes.”
“Are you sure?”
It’s a ridiculous result. “I was only thinking about the internal enemy, but already a drooling outsider appears.”
“Actually, I found out about it earlier, but I was late in reporting it because I was cautious because it might be the chairman’s in-laws.”
“is it so?”
“Besides, the Chairman already knows. The intelligence team and security reported it to the chairman, but they were told to pretend not to notice. So we were confident.”
I already figured it out, but I’m pretending not to know!
What is their intention?
Do you think that things like Hanseong Ilbo are so insignificant that you don’t need to worry about them no matter how much you try? Or are they being careful because they are in-laws?
We need to learn from each of these trivial decisions made by our grandfather.
How to collect, judge, and utilize small things is strategy and tactics.
Just as I was thinking about giving my grandfather a sneak peek, the car pulled into the mansion.
Before getting out of the car, I took out the Hansung Ilbo corporate card.
“With this, we will have a dinner party for the strategy team members today. “Don’t worry about money and enjoy your stay.”
It feels really good to show off with someone else’s money.
* * *
“How do you feel? That will be enough.”
Numbers written on a piece of paper. It is a stake in an affiliate of the Sunyang Group.
The final total is the number 17.7.
17.7% of Sunyang Group and 8 companies of Ajin Group are merged into one.
And the united company is mine.
They did not ask why it was 17.7% or the reason or basis. There is only one question to ask.
“grandfather. Are these numbers a deal? Is it an inheritance?”
His eyebrows twitched, but he immediately burst into laughter.
“Oh my, you bastard! Where does your greed end? “Hehehe.”
When the old man, who had been laughing loudly for a while, stopped laughing, I heard an answer. The answer you wanted.
“It’s a deal. Inheritance? Why am I inheriting it from you? I will only give it to my children. “You should get it from your parents.”
“My father is not a tycoon like my grandfather, so my expectations are a bit… .”
“That’s your luck. “Uh-huh.”
It’s a nuance that I think I might share a little with my father.
Thank you for that too.
“This is my second but final offer. “Quickly stamp it and hand over 1 billion dollars.”
Looking at my grandfather’s sparkling eyes, I guess he was in a hurry.
I gave up the thought of pushing and pulling and negotiating one more time.
If I say something different here, my heart will be hurt.
Even a large lake has ripples caused by a single small stone.
Even thick affection is like thin ice that can be cracked by a single disappointment.
There should be no mistake of breaking the ice.
“yes. “We will prepare $1 billion at an exchange rate of 1,600 won.”
When I answered calmly, he looked rather surprised.
“Why are you so surprised? I was always on my grandfather’s side. “I won’t be more greedy when you make concessions like this.”
I expected a happy expression from my grandfather, but instead he turned out to be a sinister expression.
“What are your intentions again? “Did I seem so gentle that I could fall for your coaxing?”
The old man has a really great sense of humor.
