[203] One step forward 5
“Yes, that guy is that guy. The best guy in Sunyang Group. A smart 3-year-old that Chairman Jin won’t change even if he gives a truck to guys like you. It says it’s his work, but can you bring it?”
“Do you mean that Jin Do-jun planned this advertisement?”
“Is there another smart third generation in the family? Aren’t they full of assholes just like you?”
When Chairman Joo Tae-sik made a sarcastic remark, his son turned his gaze away.
I thought it was a good opinion, but I couldn’t say it out of my mouth.
“How is their new car? tell me your opinion honestly.”
Chairman Joo Tae-shik looked back at the executives with a disapproving expression and said. The past is important, but I was worried about what was to come.
Even in his eyes, HW’s new compact car is pretty good.
“It is difficult to judge as the factory price has not yet been released, but the fact that it is a two-seater will be a hindrance. Due to circumstances in Korea, I can’t help but prefer a 4-seater.”
“That’s right. So far, the main consumer of compact cars is ‘mothers’. Put your little ones in the passenger seat? You misinterpreted your target audience.”
“If we made the overseas market our main target, it would be a mistake. It is difficult to withstand competition from Japanese compact car makers.”
The opinions of executives with deep bones in the automobile industry were uniformly negative.
It’s not such a bad idea when you consider the cost efficiency and so on.
However, Jeon’s aides, who increased production facilities and focused on mass production and cost reduction, did not feel that the world was changing.
“But why would I want to buy that cute looking car?”
Chairman Joo Tae-sik looked at them and smiled.
“A hole the size of a finger can break a huge dam. When the cracks start, it’s already too late. But I think their little coupe is going to pierce a hole the size of a fist, not a finger.”
It’s not just a one-time thing to break the executives. When I first saw it through the ground, my heart sank.
I wasn’t even curious about external factors such as price performance and A/S.
This… will work. This feeling was first.
“I’m so sorry. Am I the only one worried that the car, the central dam of our Daehyeon, is running with a hole in it?”
Sensing that Chairman Joo’s condition was not serious, the executives exchanged glances with each other.
“We will take measures. President.”
After tossing the easiest words, I looked at them. It doesn’t seem like it will end like this.
“The HW new car is planned to be released in early October. Our new car launch is in November, but we will bring it up a month.”
“Our new car? Isn’t that a light car?”
“you’re right. The project name is ‘Click’. It’s a five-seater, so you should be able to overpower it.”
“Oh, that’s perfect. A two-seater coupe that young kids will love and a four-door that ‘mothers’ will love. Okay, let’s put it together properly.”
In an instant, Chairman Joo Tae-shik’s face brightened.
When executives looked at his expression and relaxed, a warning like a bomb exploded from Chairman Joo’s mouth.
“3 months. We are taking personnel action as a result of just three months after launch. The timing is also very suitable. Because it’s January next year. If we fall behind HW at that time, be prepared to take off your clothes. I made it clear.”
In the end, what Chairman Joo wants is water change.
A greeting that no one can refute and have no complaints about.
There is no executive who would object to the statement that evaluation will be based on performance. Because it’s a contract job.
Besides, it’s all about winning a bout with a competitor. It is not intended to measure the performance of the entire car.
retreat to the ground
Simple Rules It’s like a World Cup tournament.
Silence fell in the meeting room.
“Now, if you come up with a countermeasure, bring it to me. Let’s see what strategy it is.”
Chairman Joo Tae-sik ended the meeting.
This is because the time to have a cup of tea with the new mayor of Seoul, who finished the inauguration ceremony today, has arrived.

It’s really awkward.
I don’t know what my uncle’s intention was to call me here.
Four men gathered at the Sunyang Hotel restaurant.
My uncle and the head of the department, Lee Hak-jae.
What are we going to do with this combination…
“I heard that you have been of great help to Sunyang Motors this time. Good job.”
“no. I was the first one to give an opinion when drafting the ad copy.”
Does Vice Chairman Vibrator still think of Sunyang Motors as his own? I feel very proud of HW cars, which have become a hot topic, as if they were taken for granted. That attitude is the kind of reaction a grandfather might show.
“Thanks to that, there was not a single article about Soonyang Electronics’ mobile phone promotion. don’t stand out too much A big national event like this requires affiliates to get on board and go together. haha.”
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki shows the appearance of a chairman who oversees all affiliates.
What are these nobles up to now?
Are you pretending to be open-minded in front of Chief Lee Hak-jae??
“It’s a Sunyang car that got out of the fence, but it did well, so it’s good. Even if Sunyang Motors became a member of someone else’s family, isn’t Dojoon a shareholder with several legs? It must be said that the thread of connection still remains.”
“That’s why I’m laughing like this. If someone else had fed me, would I be laughing like this? You killed it.”
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki looked at me and was still smiling.
What else does this mean? Are you bluffing that you can kill me anytime?
“Come on, let’s figure out what to do once the meal is over.”
“Your older brother who has a lot of money can take care of it.”
“Then did you appoint me as the president? Then I will take responsibility for this presidential election.”
presidential election? Are you preparing for this presidential election?
“President. Will your father say anything? Isn’t it the end if you change your title, change your nameplate, and change your business card? Is it easy?”
“Yeah, change everything. Instead, you should have a stake worthy of the chairman, right? My younger brother is 15%, my smart nephew is 5%. If you hand it over to me like this, my stake is 56%. nice I can be the president.”
Director Lee Hak-jae, who overheard the conversation between the two, took out a document file with a smile.
“This is the current situation. Execute according to the judgment of the two of you.”
“Father?”
“yes. He said your life will be shorter than the term of whoever becomes the next president. That’s why the owner of the Blue House should serve you well…”
My heart sank at Lee Hak-jae’s joking words. Could something be wrong with Grandpa’s health?
“Do-joon, look at the file too. you have a good sense Try making a prediction.”
The two uncles were already reading through the documents.
I opened the file and pretended to read it, then closed it again. Whoever it is, isn’t chaebol eternal?
“huh? why cover? Have you come to your senses already?”
Lee Hak-jae’s sharp eyes were uncomfortable, but he only shrugged his shoulders.
“Do you know what I see? The opposition candidates are tight…”
“Then what do you think the result will be?”
“There are still more than five months left. Aren’t the political commentators talking? Three months from the election is 500 years of the Joseon Dynasty. If you toss and turn like this, no one will know how it will fluctuate in the future.”
The two uncles also closed the file. The papers are arguing the conclusion that no answers can be drawn.
“Dojun is right. This is pointless.”
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki shoved the document file to one side.
“Let’s go according to custom. 7:3 Let’s deliver it like this.”
7:3? As I tilted my head, Lee Hak-jae said.
“It is to buy insurance for the next administration. You don’t know either, do you?”
“So 7 is the ruling party?”
“no. This time it’s the opposition. It’s the first time.”
Ah, this is the first time the Conservative Party has become an opposition party.
“But does Do-joon need to hear this? I think the manager made a mistake.”
Vice-Chairman Jin Young-ki secretly reprimanded Chief Lee, but his expression did not change.
“It’s the president’s order. Do-joon is also the representative of a financial group. I think it is only natural that we should take responsibility for what we should be responsible for in Sunyang.”
The person who handed over money in the name of Sun-yang in the presidential election would think that person was the captain of Sun-yang in the political world.
The vibrator vice president was terrified that he had no money, but he would also want to hand over a large sum of money. only in your own name.
I didn’t want to reveal my name.
I can’t put my name on the stigma of ‘leaving the car’, a creative method that ordinary people can’t even imagine.
Fortunately, Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki was out of luck. It is best to sit silently and slip away when the time is right.
“I think your brother is right. Of course, Do-joon is also one of the pillars of Sun-yang that his father pointed out. However, we are still far from being deeply involved in such secret affairs.”
Even the vibrator vice president helps.
Of course, I’m not asking them to stay far away because they think of me. After all, it is a matter of approaching the core of power in this country.
It’s just awkward that I’m already in a relationship with such a powerful person.
“So let’s do this. Do-joon.”
“yes.”
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki called me in a coy voice.
“Do you understand what my father meant by asking you to attend this event?”
“yes. Doesn’t that mean that I have to take some responsibility as well, since it’s under the name of the group?”
“right. As you know, in this year’s presidential election, our sun sheep pays for the insurance money. You should be responsible for part of the insurance money.”
“By the way, uncle. The problem is that I still don’t know how to get the money…”
“I’ll sort that out.”
Vice Chairman Vibrator came forward as if he had been waiting.
“About 23 billion will need to be prepared. Isn’t it?”
When Vibrator Vice Chairman Dong-gi looked at his older brother as if seeking consent, Jin Young-gi silently nodded.
“I’ll take care of it, so you can leave it to me.”
“yes. thank you uncle.”
He bowed his head and slowly pushed the chair back.
“Then please contact me. I will wake up first.”
“okay. stop going.”
I left the hotel and got into the car.
“Let’s go to Grandpa’s house.”
* * *
“What? If I die, will you come to my grave every morning to say hello? As long as you’re alive, do well, Inum-ah.”
“sorry. Last month I was so hectic. I will come often from now on.”
“No work. Taking time off when you are busy is sincerity. Why is it difficult to make time when you are free?”
As soon as he saw my face, he screamed out loud, but his face was smiling.
My heart hurts. It’s only been a month since I haven’t seen you, but I can see you’re getting weaker day by day.
“What are you eating to make your voice even better? My limbs keep getting thinner… What is it? Change your diet. It’s because you eat mostly protein.”
“Something else…!”
Grandpa hit me on the back.
“Anyway, you had some fun last month. Good job.”
“CEO Dae-ho Cho did a good job. I’m kind of like an assistant.”
“Incongruously humble. Jo Dae-ho called me several times. Thanks to you, I was praised for seeing the effect of hundreds of billions of advertisements. The reaction from foreign dealers was also explosive, and my mouth was torn. You have achieved results that money will never achieve.”
Whether it’s quick-witted or frank, it’s still hard to capture the character of President Cho.
“Did you come for the presidential campaign funds?”
“no. I have come to see you face to face.”
“Looking at the time, you got out first. why? Are they telling you to leave?”
“I am embarrassed. The funding for the presidential election is decided by my uncles, and I decided to take responsibility for only part of it.”
“why? Are you confident in making money even if you don’t have power?”
“Oh no. It’s awkward to talk like that…”
“Do-joon.”
“yes.”
“It is about turning money into power. Money, which is just a number, turns into the name of gold power. Isn’t that what you need?”
Grandpa burst into laughter.
