Episode 109 [Salesmen (5)]
Boom!
The car door closed roughly. The vice president closed the door without waiting for the secretary to close it.
“let’s go!”
It was a very angry voice.
The driver started the car in a hurry.
Boom.
The vice president’s car drove away from the bar.
Kyung-hoon was standing at the window, watching the car drive away.
“Is it okay to be angry like that?”
Jin Xiawei, who was watching from the side, asked Kyung Hoon.
The first meeting between the vice president and Kyung-hoon was very bloody.
From the beginning, the vice president did not receive greetings from Kyung-hoon. He immediately tried to appease and threaten.
The story was to get over Jin Xiawei.
Some said they would buy the company, and others said they would conduct a tax investigation and suspend business.
Later, he even showed off his strength with the awakened people he had brought as bodyguards next to him.
But Kyung-hoon rejected all those stories.
The vice president was so angry at the sight of him shaking his head with a calm smile. He said he would wait and see and left.
Kyung-hoon shook his head as he watched the car getting smaller.
“We haven’t even started yet.”
After finding out who sent the contaminated Awakenings and mercenaries that day, Kyung-hoon planned to repay what happened that day.
However, here in Korea, it was difficult to run wild like in other countries.
In EV, its presence still had to be hidden.
And most of his assets, including Jinshawei Omar, were in Korea. For safety’s sake, I had no choice but to refrain.
But just because I couldn’t run wild didn’t mean there was no way.
“Moreover, it is time for the name Kyung-Hoon to appear in the world.”
The jewelry bar and precious metal company established in Korea under the name of Kyung-Hoon was now a full-fledged mid-sized company.
Although it is difficult to make a move openly as the CEO of EV, he was able to go out into the world as the president of a mid-sized precious metals company.
“Do you think I’m arguing too much for something like that?”
Gyeonghun looked at Jin Xiawei with dumbfounded eyes.
It was a hostile situation. Who was the person who challenged the vice president first?
“No, if I had just paid you the down payment, wouldn’t you have thought about it for a long time?”
This is something you write down on a check for the amount that would buy most companies.
Of course, considering her salary, shares, and the money she had in her account in Switzerland, it was not an incorrect amount.
Kyunghoon answered.
“Well, I deliberately started a fight. “If you attack from the other side, it will look plausible even if a fight breaks out.”
Now that we had laid a solid foundation, it was time to grow.
In today’s world, it was impossible to grow over a long period of time like in the past.
Someone had to grab it and grow the business. And the prey to be eaten had already been decided.
She shook her head at Kyung-hoon’s words.
“Now I don’t know what position Kyung-hoon has in EV. “When you see him running on his feet all the time, he looks like a field worker, but when you see him making work decisions, on the contrary, he looks like he has a lot of decision-making power.”
Fortunately, Jin Xiawei did not look curious at all. Kyung-hoon also did not answer this question.
At that time, a voice came from outside the door.
“Manager, it’s time to finish.”
Korean was still awkward.
“Yes, let’s go.”
Jin Xia-wei waved at Kyung-hoon and opened the office door.
The woman standing outside the door bowed her head toward Kyung-hoon.
The awakened person Kyung-hoon brought from China was Liu Yi-ling.
She and two other female awakeners were working under Jin Xia-wei. .
The jewelry bar and precious metals store were safer than any bar or gold and silver store in Korea
because the building was guarded by three combat awakeners. Even if
CEO Yang came every day and Vice Chairman Kim brought in two awakeners, there was no need to worry anymore. .
As soon as Jinxiawei closed the door, Kyunghoon stood up.
“We decided to deal with SG slowly. Japan first.”
There was no need to go back like Korea, nor was there any reason to waste time.
-I will proceed right away.
Kyung-hoon nodded at Eve’s words.
* * *
“They say the goods have arrived.”
At the secretary’s report, Chairman Tadashi looked satisfied for the first time in a long time.
“The SG Chairman’s son handled the work more neatly than expected.”
Mitsubishi had prepared additional follow-up operations in case of failure.
However, SG Vice Chairman Kim, who had entrusted the task, succeeded immediately.
The chairman was also happy about the unexpected success.
“How much must have been stolen?”
“SG Group is also in a bad situation. There is a high possibility that it was stolen.”
This was expected from the time the job was entrusted to them.
And even if they had the material for the pattern, SG Group could not keep up with them. Even
if they developed it alone, they would only become latecomers.
This time, they were confident that they would beat those latecomers. .
“I will send it to the lab right away.”
The chairman nodded at the words of the secretary.
“But what should we do with the delivery man who brought the goods?”
It was natural to send it back, but the chief secretary asked the chairman.
The president’s answer was also different from what I expected.
“Hold him in the lab until the tests are over. “If there is a problem, I will tell it.”
I had to test it to know if the item I brought was the right item. If it was the wrong item, it was clear that the person who brought it would spill the secret even if it was just to survive.
He may have been a human being who knew nothing, but that did not mean that the value of the hostage was lost.
The secretary bowed her head at the president’s words.
“All right.”
“And you go and take care of things. “I can’t trust researchers or engineers.”
The chief secretary trembled slightly at the chairman’s instructions. But he had no choice but to bow his head again.
“All right.”
The chairman continued speaking, pretending not to notice the trembling chief secretary.
“Go and make sure the experiment succeeds. Then, we will be able to release a product around the same time as Natas.”
After the Chairman’s remarks, the Chief Secretary left the room.
As he left the office, the chairman looked out the window.
The city center of Tokyo came into view. The number of cars passing by was noticeably reduced.
Instead, the bike seemed to have expanded its size. It was all because of the extremely high oil prices.
All nuclear power plants that had been shut down were operating again, but there was a shortage of fuel and electricity.
Fortunately, Japan suffered less damage from mutations than other countries.
In this situation, if the experiment were successful, Japan could easily return to its former glory days.
* * *
A few days later, a generator operation experiment was conducted again at the Mitsubishi Group research center.
The generator being tested this time was one with a new pattern drawn with dye imported from Korea.
The technicians and researchers conducting the experiment and the people watching from afar all had tense faces.
The chairman’s chief of staff was also watching the experiment with a frown on his face.
Anyway, the chairman and other executives were watching on video.
If you weren’t the person in charge, there was no reason to directly observe these experiments.
And next to the chief secretary stood a person who did not fit in at all.
He was a dirty man with a bushy beard and dark glasses.
He was a man who brought items from a Korean organization and even brought an experiment with him just in case.
The man took out a dirty towel from his backpack leaning next to him and wiped his sweat.
“Wow, isn’t this really dangerous?”
The chief secretary frowned at the man’s words. It was the Osaka dialect that I learned incorrectly.
It seems like they sent someone who could speak Japanese, but it was just painful to hear.
Unfortunately, the chairman’s prediction seemed to be wrong. The carrier was truly a useless person.
“No, eating and sleeping are good. Why are you asking me to see this? “I can’t see anything worth looking at.”
The man’s words were really annoying. The chief secretary could not stand it any longer.
“Just watch quietly. If you have something to say, say it in Korean.”
“Ah hi.”
The man stopped talking and licked his lips.
I finally felt like I could live. The person next to me was muttering softly in Korean, but I could tolerate that much.
“It seems that since there is no president, his personality comes out. “Are you filming everything?”
Eve responded to the dirty man’s words.
-yes. The hacking of surveillance cameras and filming equipment has been completed. Everything is saved in real time.
Kyung-hoon scratched his beard at her words. Since I was so dirty, there was no place that didn’t itch.
However, it was difficult to meet them with their real faces, but it was also difficult to fool them with simple makeup. In the end, what I came up with was something like this.
-I think what Jin Xiawei said is correct. The owner is wandering around the scene too much. There aren’t enough people. There needs to be more people to take on this kind of work.
Eve was right. But saving people was not easy.
Although he had created quite a few friendly forces, it was several times more difficult to create people who shared his secrets.
“But even now, if it were someone else, it would have been dangerous.”
They caught the person carrying the goods and made him stand in an experiment area. It was an unexpected situation for both Kyung-hoon and Eve. If
someone else had carried the goods, the plan would have gone awry and the life of the person carrying the goods would have been in danger.
“And what’s more, what came in here? “Thanks to you, Eve, you were also able to access the lab.”
The lab’s network consisted of a closed circuit.
It was not easy to check or extract information from the outside.
But inside, Kyung-hoon was able to find the connection terminal and connect Eve.
And now, all of the lab’s data belongs to Eve. It was in my control.
-I will delete all data according to the time the experiment starts.
Although the data will become useless once the experiment begins, it was better to be sure.
“Ah, it looks like it is starting now.”
Kyung-hoon put on the safety goggles on his head that the technician gave him.
The chief secretary standing next to him also put on safety goggles, and everyone else also protected their eyes with safety goggles.
Then, the people clinging to the generator moved away.
Next to the generator was an experiment table. Wow, one robot arm remained.
“Let’s start the experiment.”
With the words of the old senior researcher, the robot arm began to move.
Clap.
The robot arm moved to the table, picked up the mana stone placed on the table, and then moved to the generator.
“Start the generator.”
Buuuuung.
The switch went up and the pattern started to glow.
The robot arm opened its fingers, but the mana stone did not fall down.
Ugh.
The mana stone began to rotate.
Oooh.
People let out exclamations of exclamation.
“The level is rising. .”
The researchers who were checking the measuring instruments shouted brightly,
and the lights in the laboratory became brighter.
“Electricity is being generated. The levels continue to rise!”
Wow!
Clap clap!
Small cheers and applause followed.
The experiment was a success.
The chief secretary also sighed in relief. Only then did he remember the Korean who brought the raw materials for the pattern. He
frowned at the Korean.
“What are you doing? ”
The carrier was carrying the backpack that had been placed on the floor on his shoulder.
“I’m getting ready to go back.”
The carrier answered his words. The chief secretary felt a strange sense of discomfort at his words.
And the next moment, I knew why.
The tone of speech has changed. The man was no longer using dialect.
He was surprised and tried to say something, but unfortunately he couldn’t get the words out.
Ugh. Ugh.
“The numbers keep rising! “It’s too fast!”
“Quickly turn it off!”
“The switch has already been turned off!”
“stop! “It’s dangerous if it gets any higher!”
The inside of the laboratory was a mess.
People shouting in surprise. People looking around not knowing what is going on. Lastly, a generator that glows brighter and brighter.
However, one person was looking at the generator with a calm expression.
It was a Korean who brought dye.
“A pattern must have a dye that matches that pattern. Moreover, if it’s a generator, you have to be more careful.”
Even in the midst of the noise, the man’s voice reached the chief secretary’s ears.
“Do you know how to stop that?!”
The chief secretary shouted at the man.
The man showed no interest in the chief secretary’s shouts. He just stretched out his hand towards the floor. -All
the cameras facing this direction were broken.
As soon as Eve finished speaking, Kyung-hoon created a portal. .
A black hole appeared in the floor, and Kyung-hoon jumped into it.
“What. What… what!”
The chief secretary shouted at the absurd sight, but his cries were drowned out by the sound of the generator.
Kuwawawawawa.
The generator was now so loud that covering one’s ears was no use.
The researchers ran outside like crazy.
But it was too loud . It was late.
Flash!
The sound stopped and white light filled the laboratory.
Kuaaaa!
The next moment, a huge explosion occurred in the Mitsubishi Group research laboratory.
The entire laboratory was engulfed in flames. No one escaped the laboratory.
The flames spread even in Tokyo. Japan was shocked
by the sudden explosion.
However, Mitsubishi continued to keep quiet in the name of investigation.
And a few days later,
Natas held a press conference.
“The tests are all over. Development is complete.” “It is done. Mana stone generators will be delivered one by one starting one week later.”
It was a press conference announcing the completion of development.
“However, it is realistically impossible to meet global demand even if the line of our Natas company and our partner Mingaz company operates 24 hours a day.”
However, the release announcement was not the end.
“So, we plan to have a manufacturer in each region to handle most of the processing and assembly sales. One company in Europe, one in Africa, one in Asia and finally one in South America.”
Papa pa paak!
The conference room heated up with the unexpected news.
“Of course, Mingaz will be in charge of the Russian region, and our headquarters will be in charge of North America.”
“We plan to handle it as a negotiated contract, taking into account various circumstances. We hope that many companies will support us.”
Reporters shook their butts. This was a scoop.
“Ah, lastly, Japanese companies are excluded from private contracts. The reason is because of the mana stone generator explosion that occurred a few days ago.”
Papa pa pa paak!
At the last word, the flash went off again. New news stories kept popping up.
Reporters were already getting up.
“That is all.”
Dr. Hyerin’s presentation ended. The reporters raised their hands like a swarm of bees.
