[225] Confidence is prohibited 2
As soon as an article came out that Chairman Joo Kwang-sik transfused 100 billion of his personal wealth into Daehyun Card, banks, the creditors of Daehyun Card, decided to provide emergency funding of 100 billion won.
It is certain that Chairman Joo Kwang-sik will take a breather with this.
He is not a bitch to the extent of selling out his credit card company because of his pocket money of 100 billion won. Even though there is such an easy solution, the fact that the acquisition was discussed is clearly due to another trick.
“I made a dramatic settlement with the bank creditors.”
Vice President Jang Do-hyung, who ran out to check the news as soon as he saw it, even talked about rumors that were difficult to confirm.
“At first, they shouted loudly that it was an easy solution, but they put it off with one excuse after another, and it seems that they decided to give their own money at the final warning from the creditors.”
“That loud voice didn’t mean selling the company, right?”
“They shouted that they were borrowing funds from Daehyun Motors.”
Taesik Joo, chairman of Daehyun Motors, helps his younger brother?
It’s even harder to believe than saying that Nolbu helped Heungbu.
I shook my head while pondering why Chairman Kwang-Sik Joo had made such a loud noise.
I decided not to think about the relationship between the brothers in the family or why I tried to bring in the Miracle.
The time to expand business is now.
Last year, LG Card, which reached the top of its external growth by surpassing 10 million cumulative customers for the first time in Korea, began to scream.
It was the result of issuing a card with a single signature without a credit inquiry. Among them were unemployed as well as high school students.
LG Card has requested public funds from the government in a situation where it is on the verge of bankruptcy due to the accumulation of bad debts.
The government and creditors are waiting for the result of the government and creditors’ disposition while holding out the last card, requesting a workout to give up management rights, and the government and creditors are discussing whether to inject 2 trillion won in public funds.
As such, the card market is in a period of collapse and reconstruction at the same time, and fortunately, Sunyang Card preoccupied the position of reconstruction in advance.
Just as Daehyeon Card was not greedy, LG Card will also do it as if it were violating someone else’s house.
Isn’t it a company that Shinhan Bank will pour a whopping 7 trillion won in a few years? I didn’t feel the need to mobilize such a large amount of money now.
Even if you invest only one hundredth of that money, you can stand out enough in the collapsed card market.
In times of confusion like these days, it is not too late to let go of arrogance and move forward cautiously, one step at a time.
* * *
The biggest confusion is the political sphere.
Ahead of next year’s general election, the political situation began to fluctuate.
The President created a new political party and attempted reform, and the Remnants became a more vicious opposition than the existing opposition.
The ruling party started as a mini-party called the 3rd party in the National Assembly, and in the phase of the opposition party, the opposition did not choose any means and methods to win the 17th general election next year.
In particular, they began to put pressure on the president and the ruling party by mentioning the presidential campaign funds, which are bound to be a weakness for anyone. Become a boomerang and do not know that their necks are flying….
Illegal presidential election funds are the most concerned part.
I also handed over illegal presidential campaign funds. Other conglomerates are full of loyalists who will always take the blame for violating the election law, but I don’t have such loyalists.
If the media mentions my name and conclusive evidence emerges, it is me who has to stand in the photo line at the prosecutor’s office.
I don’t have anyone to stand up for me, and I don’t want to do that.
Noah’s ark was built during the sunny period before the rain, and there is a saying that it is better safe than sorry.
I quietly called Director Woo Byeong-jun to his house.
“There is one thing I need to check.”
“Tell me, chief.”
“It was in the last election. Try tracking the campaign funds I prepared and handed over.”
“Suddenly, why is that…?”
“Didn’t the political world slowly start making negative comments? In particular, it seems that the opposition party is talking about special prosecutors and making a fuss to investigate the presidential election funds, but I do not want any traces of me to come out. I hope that the managing director traces back and erases any traces of me.”
Managing Director Woo Byeong-jun blinked a few times and then asked again.
“Are people included in the word to erase?”
erase people?
I couldn’t close my mouth for a while at this huge statement. Looking at me like this, Woo Byeong-jun smiled slightly.
“You seem to have misunderstood. I think you’ve seen too many movies…”
“What do you mean by erasing papers?”
“It will be erased in Korea. It means sending them to a foreign country until the problem that has arisen is calmed down. Did you really think I would kill you to keep your mouth shut?”
“I’m sorry. I think I’ve seen too many movies. haha.”
I tried to erase the awkwardness with a smile, but it wasn’t easy. But Woo Byung-jun didn’t care.
“At that time, you said that the funds cannot be traced, right? It’s money that has been turned around a few times in the United States.”
“yes.”
“So, can I just make sure I can trace the money?”
“Exactly. Just take a quick look.”
“You confidently said it was impossible, but are you worried?”
“Just in case.”
“All right. Let’s find it. By the way…”
Managing Director Byung-Jun Woo looked me straight in the eyes and spoke slowly.
“Who saw the cash then? Especially the one who brought the money to the officetel.”
“I told you that I am a trustworthy person. There is no problem with that.”
“It is a fight between political parties ahead of the general election. They run for their lives. mobilize all available resources. It includes prosecutors and police. If you target the manager, you will start hitting the surroundings. Loyalty or trust can be broken more easily than a wine glass if you rob and threaten people around you. That’s what people are.”
This person must have seen many traitors. See everything negative first.
However, he did not think that there was a contradiction in his words.
“At that time, the person who took the money from the officetel and delivered it was the managing director. Then should I also look at you with suspicion?”
Surprisingly, I couldn’t answer right away.
He was silent for a while, then nodded his head.
“okay. Even the person who spent a long time with the manager told me not to believe it, but I couldn’t show my faith.”
“I don’t necessarily mean that. My trust in you will become stronger as time passes. I am not in a hurry.”
He shut his mouth again. It’s hard to guess what he’s thinking.
“I think we need to shorten the time a bit. In fact, the manager has improved.”
He smiled and pulled out his phone from his pocket.
He opened the phone, fiddled with it, and showed me his address book.
“This is Director Lee Hak-jae’s number. I will delete it.”
I erased it without giving a chance to say anything.
“And this is President Jin’s number. I will delete it.”
“Sir, Mr. That… that’s…”
It’s already too late. I deleted both numbers.
“I don’t take any numbers I don’t have stored on my phone. How about this?”
You may only remember the phone numbers of two important people. If you don’t remember, go to the office and check again. In a way, it’s no big deal.
However, this is a person who is trying to be symbolic in order to earn my trust. Didn’t I show you my will to do only my bidding?
As he said, it greatly reduced the time to build trust. Now is it my turn to respond?
“The person who raised the money is Miracle CEO Oh Se-hyun. And the person who brought it to the officetel is an employee.”
Director Woo Byeong-jun smiled again.
“I am well aware of my relationship with CEO Oh. He’s someone you can trust. But the staff…”
“We will send it to the US within this week. They will love it if you send it to Miracle headquarters in New York under the pretext of training. When it gets quiet after the general election next year, I will call it back.”
“I don’t think there’s anything to worry about since you’re so quick and thorough, but just in case you don’t know, let’s go over the traces of the funds you instructed.”
Woo Byung-jun quietly stood up from his seat.
“Is there anything else you want me to do?”
“Can I just ask you one question?”
“What do you mean?”
“Is erasing people included by any chance?”
Was there really no such thing as killing and silence?
“Do you have someone to kill?”
The ability to embarrass people is not common. At a loss for words, I laughed and shook my head, and Woo also laughed and left.

“Stop going. You’re not going to immigrate, so why are you coming all the way here?”
“This child. If you look at your luggage, you are an immigrant. He said he’ll be back in three months. How many bags do you have?”
“The housekeeper took care of it. The people in the house are going to keep living.”
Oh Se-hyeon packed his things as if he had been waiting for December.
My father also split his busy time to the airport to see him off.
You think he took care of your son instead of you. That’s a whopping 10 years.
It was natural for such a friend to go to the airport when he left for a foreign country.
“Anyway, you have a good seat. I will be there soon.”
“Are you in Kota Kinabalu? Do you have time to come over? Who can’t even take a vacation?”
“I’m going to film a program there. How much this guy is begging me to promote the resort. They said they would even pay for the production cost, so they will organize it next year. Thanks to that, I can sneak up on myself too.”
“That’s good. Bring a bunch of famous kids. I’ll take a big shot. Hehe.”
The two continued to exchange light jokes.
I didn’t use words that reminded me of parting even a little bit. After this moment, I know that it’s not a farewell after a few months.
Parents shed tears as they saw their daughter getting married, but after the short time of the wedding and honeymoon, they realized that it was not a farewell when they started seeing each other again.
You two know this very well.
I know very well.
When I went to the army in my previous life, my mother cried out loud, but she seemed to have forgotten that her son was a soldier due to frequent vacations.
“If you go to Kota Kinabalu, do some exercise. The resort fitness center is really well made, isn’t it?”
“Stop nagging. If you go to a place with good air and sunlight, you will be healthy even if you don’t exercise.”
Oh Se-hyeon stabbed me in the side.
“Rather than that, if you don’t send e-mails, you’ll be healthier. Just don’t bother me with useless things. Did you understand?”
“I will send you a report every day. Hehe.”
“It’s black.”
My father said to Oh Se-hyeon, who smiled brightly at me.
“Stop going in. Jesu-ssi is waiting for you.”
“Dude, aren’t you careful with your title? How can you be a brother-in-law and a sister-in-law? Two years younger!”
Father also laughed and pushed Oh Se-hyeon.
As she entered the departure hall, Oh Se-hyeon kept looking back and beckoning.
By the time his figure had completely disappeared, I could barely hold back the tears that were about to spill out.
If my father hadn’t been there, I would have cried a lot.
“let’s go. Do you really have to go to work?”
“no. Today I will go home after a long time and have dinner. I’ll also call Sangjun hyung. It’s been a while since our whole family gets together and spends a good time together.”
“Are you growing up now? Do you think that Sehyun is going to be filial? Hehe.”
My cell phone rang loudly as my father smiled and put his arm on my shoulder.
“huh? What is this man doing?”
“Who are you?”
“Director of the Medical Center. Another VIP hospitalized?”
My father answered the phone with a tilt of his head.
“yes. Director. This is Jin Yoongi.”
It was a noisy airport, so I covered my other ear with my hand to see if I couldn’t hear it well.
“yes? who…? what?!”
Suddenly, the cell phone fell from the hand of the father, who had a white face.
