[183] The place where the giant left 3
Even if you pretend to be relaxed, you’re not.
I would have only been a bridesmaid and would have been fooling around… I feel a little sorry.
“Think of giving your nephew pocket money rather than having a good relationship, and give it generously.”
“Oh, are you thinking of selling? A me who isn’t even family?”
“Where are the bloodlines in the business? Skin color doesn’t matter as long as it can be sold at a high price.”
I looked at Joo Gwang-sik’s expression and pricked him in a weak spot.
“By the way, do you have enough funds to acquire our credit card company?”
“Your nephew’s merchant doesn’t have to worry about customers’ pockets.”
“Are you sure you get the money?”
“yes. As long as it’s not credit, there’s no reason to care where the money comes from.”
“I’m saying this because I’m worried that I might not be able to come out.”
“Why does my nephew think that way?”
Joo Gwang-sik carefully examined my expression as if he was digging something out.
How far should I tell you?
Can I tell you that the eldest son, Chairman Joo Tae-shik, ruthlessly raises rents with cars as his capital? How shocking would it be for the brothers to learn that after losing their companies one after another, only one or two subsidiaries they threw away as if they were good enough to live on were left?
No, even if I told you now, I wouldn’t believe it. This is because all the brothers in the Joo family believe that they will succeed their father and become the head of the Daehyeon Group.
“Doesn’t every discerning person know? To start a war with money instead of bullets.”
“It’s war…”
“The press that likes to talk already is talking about it? The prince’s rebellion has begun?”
“You think I can’t afford to look elsewhere. Hehe.”
Joo Kwang-sik’s bitter smile informs us. This person has a different purpose.
Isn’t it because he knew that he couldn’t have all of Daehyeon and turned his direction towards protecting what he had?
it goes on fun
Originally, Kwang-sik Joo ate all of the financial subsidiaries he had inherited through an unreasonable purchase of shares of the Daehyeon Group.
After that, most of Daehyeon’s wealthy financial companies were incorporated into other conglomerates, and only the newly launched financial affiliates of Daehyeon Motors remained.
How would the future change if Joo Gwang-sik stopped being greedy and focused only on protecting his own?
“I guess it means that if we have enough money to acquire the cruiser card, we will get out of the war… is that right?”
“It looks like my nephew, whom I met for the first time today, will find out all about me. One notice is really outstanding. There is a reason why you are favored by Chairman Jin.”
Joo Gwang-sik smiled at me and abruptly held out his hand.
“It is not the duty of Sangje if you are away for too long. But obviously I suggested it. Don’t forget to include me in the list of acquisition targets for the Chunyang Card. okay?”
I couldn’t refuse, and I shook my hand, which I was holding, a little exaggeratedly.
At that moment, I felt a very small but strange sense of heterogeneity.
It’s not that simple. Something more complicated lurks.
I couldn’t get rid of this feeling, so I furrowed my forehead a little, but I couldn’t see Joo Gwang-shik. It’s because I turned around and looked around.
When I returned to my grandfather’s place, it seemed that the number of people waiting for their turn to have a chat seemed to have decreased. I thought for a while whether I should avoid the seat or chase the people around my grandfather.
But when my grandfather spotted me, he raised his hand and shook it, so I couldn’t help it.
The person I was talking to with my grandfather quietly stood up when he saw me.
“I heard your precious words. Then…”
Since I won’t have a chance to meet my grandfather until I’m away again, everyone who was looking for an opportunity behind the scenes must have been disappointed.
“So what did you say?”
“They asked me to be included in the Chunyang Card takeover list.”
“Is it Joo Gwang-shik? Did you really say that?”
“yes.”
“So you? What did you say?”
“He went away without hearing my answer.”
“okay? Then how about you? If Joo Kwang-sik offers the best conditions, are you going to hand it over?”
I shook my hand lightly at the voice of my grandfather’s concern.
“As I have already said, if we increase the number of Sunyang, we will increase it, but we do not intend to reduce it. The cruise card will be held by one of your uncles.”
“Heh, Joo Gwang-shik is just turning on nonsense.”
I shook my head at the relieved grandfather’s laugh.
“no. He seems to have achieved his purpose.”
“huh? What does that mean?”
“I will not have any intention of taking over Chunyang Card. He could have used me to pretend.”
“Are you pretending?”
“Chairman Joo Kwang-sik seems to want to spread rumors that he has entered the battle to take over Sunyang Card. Maybe it’s a camouflage tactic?”
“Camouflage? why? Isn’t there nothing to be gained by him shaking you?”
“The purpose is not to shake me, but isn’t it to reassure his older brothers, especially Chairman Joo Tae-shik?”
The grandfather blinked for a moment, then clicked his tongue.
“That’s right, these guys are doing well in every corner of the house. Tsk tsk.”
They pour all of their assets into acquiring companies outside the company.
Even the grandfather quickly recognized that it was a signal that he would not step into Daehyun’s internal fights.
“How are you so quick-witted? How did you find out?”
“My eyes were wide open all around me. But he came to me on purpose and called me. Even an exaggerated handshake… This is no different than advertising. The chairman of Daehyeon’s financial division met the successor to Sunyang’s financial affiliate. He must have been eager to hear this fact.”
“yes. It’s not that there isn’t a way to secretly convey the meaning.”
“Doesn’t acquiring Sunyang Card mean that you have no intention of buying shares in other affiliates of the Daehyun Group?”
“Can I reassure Chairman Joo Tae-sik that much?”
“It may not be a perfect camouflage tactic, but it will give you time to breathe. You’re obviously going to procrastinate on negotiating with me. Rumors will spread loudly. In the meantime, behind the scenes, we will secure a controlling stake in Daehyun Group and grow our strength.”
The grandfather said with a hearty smile that was not suitable for a house of mourning.
“Then, shall we take a look at our grandson, Hyean?”
“what…?”
“Who will be the actual chairman of Daehyun Group? It’s not Daehyun, who has been split like now.”
“Grandpa thinks they’re getting back together.”
“A river may diverge or meander a little as it flows, but eventually merges in the sea. It is only a matter of time.”
“Right now, Daehyun Motors seems to be the most likely. It is the largest and has the symbolism of Daehyun.”
“Isn’t construction and Joseon a symbol of great prestige?”
“Because the symbolism of being the eldest son is also a great weapon. Try now.”
My hand pointed to the funeral home.
Chairman Joo Tae-shik was politely welcoming the National Assembly Speaker who had come with a large entourage.
“This is the head of the family. The eldest son is the one who welcomes the distinguished guests who visit this place. The real reason for holding a family funeral, not a business seal, is to firmly nail down to the VIPs that they are the successors.”
In fact, if it is Chairman Joo Young-il, he is not the head of the family, but the head of the economy.
If he decides to become the head of the economy, first, five economic organizations, including the Federation of Korean Industries, the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the Korea International Trade Association, the Korea Federation of Small and Medium Business, and the Korea Employers Federation, will launch a funeral committee.
This funeral committee is in charge of the entire funeral, and the media pays attention only to the actions and announcements of the funeral committee and its chairman.
The status of the deceased will rise, but the eldest son will not be noticed.
Chairman Joo Tae-sik must have pushed this into the head of the family with this calculation in mind.
Grandpa was just staring at my mouth like he was lost.
“What the hell are you like?”
“yes?”
“Hey. I also have a pure heart to send my deceased father to my family. To think that everything moves with such meticulous calculations…”
“Grandpa. Tomorrow is the funeral. Tonight is the last night I will spend with my late father. However, he is a son who uses camouflage tactics by calling me out when he sees me for the first time. I don’t think they have even the tiniest bit of such a pure heart left.”
When I told him my thoughts a little firmly, my grandfather forgot his words for a moment. Perhaps the funeral of Chairman Joo Young-il and your funeral overlapped.
When I opened my mouth again, an unexpected question came up.
“What are you going to do?”
“yes? What do you mean?”
“My funeral. Are you going to be the head of the family? Or are you going to cut down on the power of your uncle, the eldest son?”
“That will be decided by the elders in the family. As the lowest in the family hierarchy, all I can do is follow that decision.”
“So whatever you mean, you do what the adults tell you to do? Even if that’s not what you mean?”
If you think about it, my words are extremely realistic and even valid. The funeral is the responsibility of the child, and there is no room for the grandson to intervene.
But did I say that the older you get, the more you become like a child? I understand with my head, but I think I was angry and disappointed when I said that I would just ignore it.
“Even if my body does what adults tell me to do, my heart will do what I want.”
“what? Where’s the pun? Okay, what’s on your mind?”
It’s like people prick up their ears and eavesdrop on our conversations. Fortunately, neither my grandfather nor I raised our voices, and as if they had promised, there were no mourners seated close to us.
“My grandfather’s tomb is in Sunyang Music Hall Park in Yongin. My grandfather personally chose the best seat, so no one will change it.”
“What do you mean?”
“I will go to say hello every morning for three years without missing a day. I really want to build a hut and hold a funeral for three years, but I can’t neglect the affiliates my grandfather gave me. I will replace it with morning greetings.”
He must have been impressed, but he is trying very hard not to show off.
“Anyway, that sweet sound that clings to your ears is amazing. Are you practicing regularly?”
Grandpa pouted like an old man in a heartache, but his eyes were smiling brightly.
“Is that really how you receive my sincerity?”
“noisy.”
It was only after he shouted for no reason that his voice changed to a calm voice.
“Did you guys plan to stop working and play after I leave? The guy who misses every minute and every second goes back every morning for three years… whenever he thinks about it, he stops by and talks about what’s going on in the world.”
He is the one who said that in normal times, when you leave the world, you return to nothingness. Even though he was such a grandfather, he seemed to be afraid of loneliness, seeing that he wanted you to visit him often and not forget where he slept.
“Let’s just stand up. The body is not like the mind.”
“Are you going back?”
“Chairman Joo wanted to spend the night so he wouldn’t be bored…”
“Yes. rest at home It is difficult for me to stay up all night as a young person.”
“I will. I want to come back tomorrow and see you off on the way to that old man.”
When Grandpa got up, people came running from all over.
I pretended not to see most people and greeted only the eldest eldest, Chairman Joo Tae-sik and his brothers.
“See you tomorrow. Now I’m old enough to keep the last of my friends. haha.”
“No, Mr. President. I don’t know what to do with you just because you came.”
The grandfather, who was shaking hands one by one, held the hand of Chairman Joo Kwang-sik, the sixth man, and looked him in the eyes and said,
“Don’t touch mine.”
“yes? What do you mean…?”
Chairman Joo Kwang-shik was taken aback by his grandfather’s sudden attack and did not know what to do. Or at least it seemed that way.
