The Legend of
Return Chapter 363 Suyeonjecheomanbanseong (隨緣諸處萬般成) (2)
Completed the 2nd contact with the target.
As you observed, it possessed special abilities, but otherwise nothing out of the ordinary.
I made a connection with the Elza Group daughter.
According to the information, there seem to be a lot of women around.
I like the food to be commonplace.
I’m sure you don’t doubt me.
We will keep in touch and report.
Kohane sent a coded e-mail over the Internet.
“Sorry.”
After a long time, I drank alcohol using the excuse of contacting the target.
I wanted to drink more.
I had a meeting with Jang Tae-san pretending to be a coincidence.
I hacked the server of Korea University through the upper management and applied for the same liberal arts course.
It was said to be the best university in Korea, but the server management was poor and it was pierced terribly quickly.
As planned, I approached Jang Tae-san as naturally as possible.
It was important to be careful not to notice.
Jang Tae-san was quick-witted and the guards around him were strict.
News spread that another gang member broke into the residence and took useless things.
In order not to fail, Kohane acted like a real exchange student.
Click. Chi profit.
I took out the beer from the mini-fridge and opened the cap.
Usually, because of his role as a naive exchange student, he rarely drank alcohol.
But today, I drank some alcohol, using the contact with Jang Tae-san as an excuse.
I was thirsty.
“He’s a funny guy.”
Jang Tae-san, younger than Kohane, was attractive regardless of age.
It didn’t look like the ‘descendant of iron and steel’ that the organization was looking for.
He was down-to-earth and kind.
It was more appropriate to say that he was an avatar of Casanova rather than a descendant of Sotal.
Jang Tae-san was scattering rumors here and there.
If Kohane was an ordinary woman, she would have fallen for Jang Tae-san’s charms long ago.
No, I was still full of undeniable curiosity.
If it weren’t for the training and job characteristics of controlling emotions, I would have been really into it.
“Heh… are you looking forward to the next one?”
Unexpected behaviors during class continued.
He was smart and his physical abilities were extraordinary.
Still, something was lacking to be said to be a descendant of metal.
What can I say? There seemed to be a lack of sincerity.
He seemed and acted like a man born to enjoy life.
If you were a descendant of Soetal, you should hide your abilities as much as possible and quietly protect yourself without revealing yourself.
“If you keep watching, you’ll understand…”
Kohane comforts herself with a glass of cold beer.
Through the large glass, an illusion of him holding a glass of wine and smiling at each other gleamed.

“Can I speak as an investor?”
“I want that.”
“It can be very uncomfortable.”
“Is that not enough?”
“I have nothing but the truth to tell you.”
“ha ha ha. That’s why Chairman Oh likes it.”
“I also gave a lot of rave reviews.”
“It seems we are lacking.”
“A lot.”
“Um…”
He laughed and chatted lightly, but Go Ja-ryong’s heart was heavy.
I came to know what kind of person Jang Tae-san, a young man in front of me, was during the Hug incident.
We also know that Chairman Oh Jeong Lim Seong-cheol, who is number one in the business world, is keeping an eye on it.
Rumors spread that Chairman Lim personally introduced his youngest daughter without hesitation.
He was also the Korean partner of Robert Ryan, a rising Wall Street legend.
Jang Tae-san, who is trusted by Ryan enough to shatter the Ahn Group and appoint him as the chairman of the TS Group.
A man who is so talented as an investor that he already created an investment program in high school and made trillions of dollars.
This fact was known to all those who had a tolerable source of information.
Personal returns were also beyond imagination.
It is said that these days, the stock market has been struggling with the collapse, but it was something to know when it went to the end.
Until now, Jang Tae-san was a name known only among the top conglomerates.
Chairman Koh Ja-ryong also wanted to see Jang Tae-san, but he couldn’t find a point of contact.
However, by chance, I came here with my daughter on my own.
“Is that the reason why I am not investing in Elza Group stocks, unlike Oh Jung?”
I knew that Jang Tae-san had bought a lot of shares in Ohjeong Group.
However, somewhat unpleasantly, I did not purchase shares related to the Elsa Group.
“of course. I am an investor seeking returns. The Elsa Group… is not fun.”
“Can’t you interpret it as meaning that the stock price has stabilized?”
“…If you were like the chairman, would you invest in Elsa for a long time?”
Jang Tae-san’s words stuck in his chest like a dagger.
Pushed at noon, I heard the sound of the second person in my ten thousand years.
“…the words hurt.”
“Isn’t that what you wanted to hear? Shall we quit now?”
‘He dragged a tiger into the house.’
My friend, who is also young, did not faint at all in front of the current president.
It was not uncommon for representatives of tolerable conglomerates to raise their heads and look straight in the face of Chairman Koh Ja-ryong, let alone say such a thing.
However, Jang Tae-san did not hold back.
The momentum was also gradually changing.
Unlike when he entered the house with Yeonji, Jang Tae-san’s atmosphere as an investor has changed 180 degrees.
“I’ll have another drink. Snacks are fine too.”
Shredded jerky made from Korean beef came out.
Andongju is a solo drink, but since he doesn’t have a hangover, a simple snack went well with him.
cut off.
Jang Tae-san, who casually pours himself into a glass and drinks it.
“I want to hear it. What our group needs right now.”
Go Ja-ryong did not care at all about Jang Tae-san’s age.
Ever since I was a child, I had been listened to by my father and had been educated.
To never look down on a young guy while living.
He said that the future is unknown and the potential of young people is always displayed.
It means that a young man was looked down on and then hit in the back of the head.
“Where should I begin?”
“…Tell me the big ones first.”
“Then… shall we begin?”
Jang Tae-san leisurely puts down his glass and looks directly at Chairman Ko Ja-ryong.
His lips slowly opened.

“Too many boatmen.”
“Sailor?”
Chairman Go Ja-ryong frowned at the word “sagong” and asked again.
I know it, but it’s the most painful history, so it’s probably the part I don’t want to talk about.
“With regimental singers, the largest number of family members are connected to the group. Those connected boatmen are the problem.”
“You are wrong about that. Our Elza Group has been running friendship management since my father’s time. It ended with the Ha family and each other in 2005 tidying up affiliates.”
Chairman Goh Ja-ryong speaks proudly of this part.
“The two sides of the coin are inseparable. Just as there is yin and there is yang, there must be a downside behind the advantages. Just as nothing is perfectly right in the world, there is no perfect arrangement. Do you think all of those boatmen will be honest and perfectly steer the boat, just like you believe?”
It seemed like he was writing smug texts in front of adults, but he didn’t stop.
I was the one who risked my life once to bring back memories of the future.
Until 2020, the life of the Elza Group was maintained, but the management performance was not good.
The display that fed the group was overtaken by China.
Although the business was organized similarly to Ohjeong, it was pushed out of focus.
“Still, we’ve been on the right track so far. You have to walk the right way to avoid falling behind.”
Chairman Ko Ja-ryong did not acknowledge it.
Before I died, I had seen the securities company’s report on the Elsa Group a few times.
Among stockbrokers, it had a reputation as a boring stock.
The Elsa Group was a group of companies that neither went up nor hit the bottom.
Occasionally, it showed unusually market-leading technology, but it lacked a backbone and quickly lost its place to latecomers.
It was because the group power was not concentrated.
“I like that as well. However, having a lot of boatmen is not something to be proud of. Chairman, you don’t want to admit it, but was the power of the Elza Group really like this in the past?”
He kept asking questions that would hurt if he was stabbed.
“Why did the Elsa Group, which stood shoulder to shoulder with Oh Jung, end up like this? Loyalty is good. I succeeded with the Ha family’s money, so I have to pay it back. There is no problem enough even if the group is separated. The brothers also worked hard, so it is only natural for them to give away one company at a time. The credit for creating a family business has to be paid, even between brothers, and nothing is free in this world.”
“…..”
President Ko Ja-ryong’s complexion gradually darkened and hardened.
It would be a truth he wants to avoid.
“All the advantages of group management unique to Korea have disappeared. Global IT conglomerates are also sensitive to company equity. The founders of Apple and Google are strangling stocks. It serves as a barrier so that the direction of the group is not shaken by the interests of shareholders. Actually, they are good talkers, aren’t they all speculators? Everyone is blinded by immediate profits rather than corporate social values. In the midst of this, the Elza group generously handed out one by one. The result is…”
I didn’t bother to say the result with my own mouth.
We know that the affiliates naturally separated after the death of the former chairman.
Most of the companies that went back to Chairman Koo Ja-ryong’s uncles did not maintain the signboard of Elsa Group for long.
The flowers that lived in the group’s protective shield collapsed in the world of the ruthless manager.
Everyone knows the Elza Card, the Elza Fire, the Elza Securities, the Elza Futures, the Elza Investment Trust, and many other decent businesses have been separated from their affiliates.
Compared to the vast family tree, there was less noise about issues such as group management rights, but the scars were great.
Most of the separated companies are almost disintegrated due to unreasonable expansion of business areas and reckless management.
Many of the financial companies of Elza Group’s collateral groups have become owned by Korean financial holding companies.
“Still, I have no regrets.”
He is a nobleman with considerable stubbornness.
So, you must have heard that he is the master of perseverance management.
The respected entrepreneur was right.
“Being a holding company, the lax business flow has improved. They are tightly tied and synergistic with each other.”
“Of course there are advantages. You did a good job cleaning up useless subsidiaries. But the most painful regret is that I couldn’t complete vertical sequencing like Ojeong. In such a situation, I gave out pockets that were in charge of the group cash cow role. Wouldn’t it have been better if we had embracing Elza Card or financial companies?”
“We are free from the pressure of separation of finance and commerce.”
“Other groups are holding on.”
“That’s about it…”
“So did you take away the Elsa semiconductor?”
“what!!!”
He mercilessly bit Chairman Koh Ja-ryong’s most painful finger.
Elza Semiconductor, which the Elza Group regrets forever.
“The expression that I gave you a dog because I killed porridge sounds radical, right?”
Elsa Semiconductor, which is forcibly taken away while there is a measure to rationalize the industrial structure in the aftermath of the IMF.
From then on, the Elza group had one wing broken.
Solidarity groups enthusiastic about projects in North Korea were clearly supported by those in power in the government.
“Now you are talking too harshly!”
At this moment, most people live without knowing the future to come.
Unlike those people, I am a person who has experienced the future no matter what anyone says.
If the Elza Group owned Elza Semiconductor, the business hierarchy would have changed.
Elsa did not neglect technology investment.
It was the Elza Group, where the employees were not treated badly.
However, the loopholes caused by family management were clearly exposed.
In the past, when the economy was booming, it was possible to expand the octopus foot.
It was an era when the family was more reliable than other employees.
The era of being able to grow by pushing and pulling in the name of family has already passed a long time ago.
Chairman Ko Ja-ryong would like to deny it, but the Elsa Group has been noisy since 2010 due to management rights issues.
There was no clear successor, so the invisible antagonism between the brothers, who were the majority shareholders, was even worse.
The era has come when brothers are also rivals.
Even more so, it hurts my mouth to talk about cousins and older cousins.
“I think it is right to pursue the ideology of Jeong-Do Management. However, he lacked the foresight to look into the future and take a step ahead. It is also correct to defend against the dirty demands of the political world through a holding company. However, staying away from the political world is….. defeat. Politics and business are also interconnected in the US and Europe. Other group presidents aren’t afraid to go to jail. The political world is a mess, but if you are clean alone, is that really the right thing to do?”
I asked Chairman Go Ja-ryong, who was trembling, for his opinion again.
“I…”
“It’s because I’m sorry. If the succession principles were clear, the Elsa Group could have become an even bigger conglomerate. I missed the opportunity to become a two-headed wagon that will lead the economic foundation of Korea by forming a double wall with Oh Jeong.”
“You’re jumping to conclusions too quickly…”
“It’s not a conclusion, it’s reality. Sooner or later, Hynex will change owners.”
“what?”
Hynex Semiconductor, which is now operated under joint management by creditors.
In 2012, it was finally sold to NK Group.
And NK Group uses Hynex to prepare another foothold for expansion.
On the other hand, Elsa Group, which has become smaller in size, misses the opportunity to become a global company.
economies of scale were not realized.
I missed a good opportunity while only following the mobile phone market.
If it had embraced Elsa Electronics, it could have become a global conglomerate like Ojung.
“It may have worked out better. If Elsa had become the owner of Hynex, not only the political world but also the collaterals would not have stood still.”
determined and revealed the truth.
“…I’m leaving for today.”
Chairman Koh Ja-ryong issued a congratulatory order.
“You drank well.”
He got up from his seat without hesitation.
Elza Group is a good company, but not enough to become a global company.
The day is not far away when it is pushed back by Chinese displays and white goods that are promoted by the state.
“I won’t go far.”
Even so, Chairman Go Ja-ryong, who did not lose his reason, was amazing.
I didn’t dismiss the young guy’s careless words.
“Do your best to defend management rights….. And come visit us whenever you need. I want to pay back the money I drank today. Then.”
I lowered my head and turned my back.
Suyeonjecheomanbanseong (隨緣諸處萬般成).
Even if they met by chance and their fate came true…
Dudumulmuljinyeoche (頭頭物物眞如體) Sususantaegojeong (水水山山太古情).
People did not know that all appearing phenomena were true and true, and that as water and mountains have existed since ancient times, they are true as they are now.
Chairman Go Ja-ryong, who asked for a cool evaluation.
He, too, suffered from the thorns under his fingernails, but he was struggling to live by ignoring the truth that he faced would not be the truth.
