[161] This is not the time to be slim and tight
.
Without any income, only the fact of his wife’s large-scale gambling and illegal currency exchange was exposed to the world. I have to take care of it…. The prosecution is the problem.
It is unknown whether they will quietly cover it up, or whether they will start a formal investigation and shake off their overseas slush fund details.
My wife’s gamble will soon disappear if the world points at me, but the slush funds collected one by one like Altoran should not be exposed.
If overseas real estate details are exposed to the media, the world will not end with just pointing fingers. If necessary, it must be prevented from spreading to a special prosecutor. We need to clear everything as soon as possible.
“Management Support Planning Office Strategy Office Public Relations Secretariat All Gathering.”
Jin Young-ki dragged his heavy feet toward the meeting room.
“Report.”
The vice president’s timid tone made the atmosphere in the conference room even heavier.
“The prosecution also has face, so it is said that it is difficult to dismiss it as a hasty judgment of an average prosecutor. Korean newspapers made a fuss about it, and domestic daily newspapers also reported on it…”
The reporter checked the vice chairman’s expression again and spoke cautiously.
“It is inevitable that a witness will appear in relation to away gambling…”
“You mean to stand in the prosecutor’s office photo line?”
“yes. If we block the press, we promise to prosecute and finish with a fine.”
“good. How’s the PR team going?”
A man jumped up at the place where Vice Chairman Jin’s gaze was directed.
“Just sit down and do it. It’s not even a presentation room.”
When Jin Young-ki waved his hand away, the head of the public relations office sat down on a chair.
“I said I would take down all the articles on the Internet, but they said that I could not help with follow-up reports, and that I would publish one or two articles. So we are still negotiating. I will make sure to stop it.”
Jinyoung was a little relieved. If the media is blocked, it will be easier for the prosecution to solve the problem. My wife spread disgrace all over the country. Right now, I want to put him in prison.
“Reporters or desks, don’t save money. Squeeze in whatever you want. Instead, hide the away gambling articles.”
“yes. Vice President.”
Now we have to solve the toughest problem.
Haewa account and exchange.
This will never come easily. Because of the national task of overcoming the IMF, stealing dollars is no different from treason. The crime of high treason was such a serious crime that the Gujok had to be destroyed, and there were even rumors that the Great Swordsman’s Central Investigation Department was in motion.
“Chief Choi.”
“yes. Vice President.”
“Open an account with $500,000 in it, throw it to the prosecution… and say we’re done with it.”
“yes.”
Everyone in the meeting knows that it can’t end like this. The fact that 500,000 dollars came out of the vice chairman’s mouth means that you should carry that amount on your shoulders and take responsibility.
I will finish it with probation, and I will receive a special bonus of about 1 billion for at least two levels of promotion.
Everyone started to notice.
After taking a quick look around the conference room, Jin Young-gi threw a word like a passing word and got up.
“The person to go on a business trip for a while is decided after careful discussion. It’s not a long-term business trip, so you know there’s no need to think too hard, right?”

After Lee Hak-jae’s report, Chairman Jin frowned.
“So, the tail is the spirit?”
“I can’t help but see that. The IRS staff who entered the Miracle headquarters escaped like the ebb tide. Vice-Chairman Jin Young-ki called me urgently.”
“Stupid bastard. It is a law to protect the pride of civil servants.”
Even though he is a public servant who does as he is told, he does not take a good look at the situation where he has to go and come back.
In particular, knowing that the order came from a conglomerate rather than from the head of an organization, even the pride of being a public servant collapses.
If this happens repeatedly, it is no different from the shepherd boy. In the future, the influence of government organizations will gradually become weaker.
“A prosecutor’s press conference? Did you really investigate? Or is it a request from Miracle?”
“At first, I moved at the direction of the vice president, but I turned away. Miracle must have given you a bigger gift.”
“Have you tried contacting me?”
“yes. The Southern District Prosecutor’s Office was in trouble. It’s a little hard to cover up something that didn’t exist.”
President Jin, who had been thinking for a while, clicked his tongue as if he was irritated.
“I shouldn’t have cared about it if I had withdrawn from the front line… but this is true.”
He shook his head lightly and said.
“Just make sure to keep the scope. It will be difficult if even Sunyang gets into trouble.”
“yes. I will tell you that. And…”
“What’s with that expression?”
“Mayor Choi seems to have found something through the Eastern District Prosecutor’s Office.”
“Choi Seo-bang?”
“yes. What should I do?”
“Leave Mayor Choi alone. It’s a family matter, so we’ll solve it among ourselves. oh my. At this age, I still have to stop the kids from fighting… Won.”
Chairman Jin struggled to pick up the receiver.
* * *
“You all know why I called you guys, right?”
Jin Young-gi was nervous and Jin Seo-yoon had a pouty expression. The second son, Vibrator, was just looking at his father with an expressionless face.
“I can’t leave the house because I’m shy. Do you do it in moderation?”
“father. This is what my eldest brother started. I have a prison shop…”
“So? Did you ask Choi Seo-bang, who is no different than a stranger, to investigate her brother’s background? is that what you’re going to do?”
When Jin Young-ki glared at his younger sister as if he were going to kill him, Chairman Jin said in a firm tone.
“Everyone is in line, so contact everyone and arrange everything. Sleep quietly.”
“father. Things that have nothing to do with me…”
“Noisy. You are the same. I didn’t dip my foot in it, but wasn’t it hiding behind your brother? So, Yeongjun also posted it to Seoul. would i have said Before he makes a human being, don’t let him set foot in Seoul?”
The vibrator slipped in, trying to show he wasn’t causing a stir, but all he got back was screaming.
“I know that most of the younger sons are selfish and have a good grip, but you go too far. When you go out, you go out directly, and when you leave, you clearly draw a line. When you act shrewdly, you give in return and receive in words.”
Vibrator averted his father’s eyes at the blatant rebuke.
“Are you not answering? Do your best to keep this situation quiet!”
“yes. All right.”
I responded in a loud voice to President Jin’s screams without realizing it.
“I am afraid to read the newspaper and watch the news. don’t come out anymore If the name Sunyang is mentioned in the media even after three days, everyone is prepared. Even mobilize all the executives to put it to sleep.”
Chairman Jin’s bitter eyes turned to his daughter.
“Mayor Choi told me to stop too. You’d think he’d be your last string, but you’d have to grab a thick rope to hold it. Why use a thin rope like that?”
“…….”
“That guy is uncomfortable at the party. If your heart is in the bean field, will you become a politician? There is no next for him.”
When Jin Seo-yoon did not give a cool answer, Chairman Jin’s eyes went up.
“If you don’t stop him, I won’t. Will the whole nation know how much money he received from the Daehyeon Group?”
“Oh no. I will sort it out today.”
Hearing the definite answer from the three children, he let out a long sigh.
It’s not that I don’t know that things like this will continue in the future, but I really thought I wouldn’t care once the affiliates were finished.
President Jin started to give a final word of advice to his children.
“From now on, listen carefully to what I have to say. There is a reason I passed on the department store and hotel to Seoyoon.”
Jin Seo-yoon’s eyes sparkled and ears perked up.
“When I started cruising, all I could think of was the idea of repaying the country by creating an industry for national patriotism. It was considered a natural duty to produce and sell a thing called a corporation. Even things that are common now were rare at the time, so I couldn’t even use them.”
It was the right start, but now it’s a completely different look. Chairman Jin has not yet forgotten his feelings at that time. I don’t follow it, but…
“Hotels and department stores are just a way to make money. It doesn’t match the word industrial patriotism. so that’s why i took it off But I couldn’t keep it for even a year, so I blew it away. Could it be because Seoyoon is an idiot?”
Chairman Jin shook his head.
“Abandon the idea that Sunyang is strong. There are a lot of guys out there looking after us like a herd of wildcats. If you see a gap like the eye of a needle, you jump at it right away. A single mistake leads to irreparable regret.”
As if he thought it was his last request, his emotional appearance continued like never before.
“And the same goes for Sunyang Motors and Miracle. The IMF broke down the country’s seawall. I had to keep the cruiser. That’s why I handed it over as free money. Otherwise, it would have started collapsing overseas and shaken the headquarters.”
Chairman Jin looked at his two sons and continued.
“You two have to get the car back. Now, Sunyang Motors has more than doubled in size by merging with Ajin Motors. It won’t be easy, but you have to come.”
The vibrator I had been listening to opened its mouth. Now that the Woosung Group has also collapsed, the automobile company that the two companies merged with is the only automobile company that can compete with Daehyun.
He also did not give up his greed.
“Did you have any other appointments with CEO Oh Se-hyun?”
“A promise?”
“Someday it will be handed over again…”
“No.”
The vibrator’s facial muscles twitched at the short answer. No matter what my father said, it was as if he had handed it over to me.
“You can’t look at him lightly. Don’t even make the mistake of thinking that if you give them a lot of money, they will hand over the company. He has risen to the top of the business world in just a few years.”
Chairman Jin looked at the vibrator and said.
“You meet Oh Se-hyeon often because of the acquisition of Woosung Marine & Shipbuilding, right?”
“yes.”
“Make good use of that opportunity. Figure out what he wants. That comes first.”
“All right.”
President Jin said one last thing to his two sons.
“If you think you are the emperor, you will never get it back. They can come only when you become a herd of wolves. You need patience to wait until a gap the size of a needle opens, and you need the strength to cut the leash at once when the opportunity comes.”

“How are you? Are you in good health?”
“I can’t live up to my name because of you. Take it easy.”
“Hey, what… All I do is struggle to not die. haha.”
“I called your uncles today and told them to sort things out. Don’t make it too big either. Because the sheep might get hurt.”
Guessed when grandfather called. It’s in the stage of organizing so that no more words come out, so I can’t forget to ask me too.
“I’m so glad. There is nothing more to do.”
“okay. Instead, I’ll give you a present. I’ve told you a few places, so there shouldn’t be any problems getting permission for duty free shops at Incheon Airport. The same goes for duty-free shops in downtown Seoul.”
“thank you. grandfather.”
“Permission would have been dropped anyway. This is because we are not alone among the applicants. I just nailed it one more time.”
“I was anxious enough to be desperate to nail that nail. I didn’t know if the prosecution would investigate my aunt. I was worried that it would be a deductible factor.”
“okay. I’m glad if it helped. Anyway, I think it would have been a good study for you… How is it?”
“Once I thought it was done. The goal was to make sure this never happens again.”
“so? Did you achieve your goal? Do you think your uncle will no longer stab you needlessly?”
“yes. I used the weapon my grandfather gave me properly.”
“The weapon I gave you? What is it?”
“A 17% stake in Sunyang Group owned by automobiles.”
“what…?”
“You said you were going to throw it to your uncle, so it ate straight bread?”
Grandpa blinked for a second to understand what I was saying, then burst into a hearty laugh.
