[244] 五日葬 2
When the vibrator was immersed in these complicated thoughts, some people felt uncomfortable with the same experience.
‘I expected this, but it’s a bit harsh… This is what the term face confiscation is.’
Chief Lee Hak-jae was thrilled that few of the mourners who visited the mortuary treated him the way they used to.
People who used to bend their backs just a few days ago are struggling to imprint on Chief Baek Joon-hyeok, who is the hand and foot of Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki rather than himself.
I even had the illusion of seeing my old self.
On behalf of the group, Baek Jun-hyeok conveyed the news of Chairman Jin’s death. As his appearances flowed through the media all at once, those who knew Sunyang thought that he had inherited the role of Lee Hak-jae intact.
The closest person who can get closest to the group chairman.
He is realizing from the first day of the funeral that the place no longer belongs to him.
“When Jeongseung’s dog dies, it’s a great city, but when Jeongseung dies, there’s an empty yard for condolences, right?”
“Since there is a son who inherits the seat of Jeongseung, they still form a sacred city?”
“No one pays attention to the dog that Jeongseung raised instead.”
“I still have a bad mouth. When did you come?”
“I’m on my way straight from the airport now.”
“If you didn’t come in a fighter jet, is it too fast?”
“Yoongi called me a few days ago. The president doesn’t think he can hold out any longer, so come in.”
“CEO Oh was that close to the president? Enough to watch your deathbed?”
“It’s not close, but there are corners that I respect a little bit. Of course, I didn’t come here to protect my deathbed.”
“Do-joon?”
“yes. Since the chairman is not there, the vice presidents will move, and Miracle, which has a controlling stake in the Sunyang Group, should also keep a close eye on the situation. Aren’t we also the majority shareholder? I don’t see dogs or cows sitting in the president’s seat.”
Oh Se-hyun said while standing side by side with Chief Lee Hak-jae on one side of the yard, watching the procession of luxury cars constantly coming in.
“You must be tired, can you take a nap? I don’t think you have anything to do.”
“Even though it was not a charter flight, I had a good night’s sleep in First Class. The mind is buzzing. I want to see Yoongi and Dojoon’s face. I also do condolences.”
Oh Se-hyeon tapped Lee Hak-jae’s side.
“If I appear, shouldn’t all the residents have to bow down? The main shareholder was delivered…”
“To the sons of this family, you must be treated as a thief and a swindler? Because you took away that precious share.”
“Then, how is this manager treated?”
“Didn’t you tell me? It’s the dog that the deceased Jeong-seung kept. no worse? Since no one cares, I think it’s correct to say that I’m indebted to a duck egg in the Nakdonggang River. Hehe.”
“Then stop worrying and accept Do-joon’s proposal.”
“proposal? Ah HW Group?”
“yes. Even if it’s not up to Jeongseung, wouldn’t it be about the level of writing?”
Lee Hak-jae shook his head as he saw Oh Se-hyeon shed a real laugh. It’s hard to know how such a smirking guy became friends with serious Yoongi.
“Let’s see…. Jeong Seung-i is Jeong 1st, and Panseo is Jeong 2nd, maybe?”
“Oh, you must know a lot.”
“This is common sense. You are ignorant.”
“Because I’m a study abroad student who drank English water… Korean history is a bit dark. Would you like to stop talking and think about it? Earnestly.”
“If Sunyang is a top 1, HW is a top 2, and there is no chin… Now it’s just the level of the past. The analogy doesn’t fit.”
“The seats are different. This is the chairman. Isn’t it the dragon’s tail, not the snake’s head?”
“Finish when appropriate. I get annoyed because I get bored with long jokes. Oh, why don’t the CEO sit there? You can remove the representative and attach the president.”
Oh Se-hyun raised his hand and pointed at his face.
“Look at my color. Aren’t they almost Southeast Asian natives?”
His face was more tanned than that of a professional sportsman, if not a native. It’s only been about two months, but this change tells us what his daily life is like.
“Does it seem like the arms are stretched?”
“Wake up in the morning, eat breakfast at the hotel, and play a round of golf. It’s a daily routine to swim in the pool, sit on the beach, watch bikini beauties, and enjoy a hearty dinner with wine. I can’t work anymore. I live in paradise Hehe.”
“Didn’t you go with your wife? Are you a bikini beauty?”
“So you didn’t say it was sentimental? It’s a bit unfortunate.”
“CEO Oh is very strange. A gambler can’t live without leaving the gambling table…. Am I wrong?”
“Isn’t a real gambler someone who knows when and how to fold the game?”
Chief Lee Hak-jae glanced at Oh Se-hyeon and smiled.
“I took a break and lost my senses. I picked the wrong hand this time. If you’re not interested, put a chrysanthemum on the mortuary and go. Contact me before returning to paradise. Let’s have dinner.”
Lee Hak-jae put his hand on Oh Se-hyeon’s shoulder and disappeared.
“I’m not the kind of person to retire like this…”
Oh Se-hyeon, looking at his back, tilted his head.
I confirmed that Chief Lee Hak-jae had disappeared and approached Oh Se-hyeon.
“What do you say?”
“I don’t know. Judging from what you’re saying, it’s clear that you don’t like the current situation, but you’re not interested at all.”
“You should be scratching your insides, but didn’t you just say something stupid again?”
Oh Se-hyun hit me on the head.
“Yumma! I even treated him as a dog in the yard of Jeongseung’s house, but he just laughed. I don’t know what’s inside.”
“That’s too bad.”
“There is no answer to scratching your ego. Change your strategy.”
Oh Se-hyun started glancing at me with an unreliable expression.
“Anyway, I’ll put some incense on it and go.”
“Are you going to be at the hotel?”
“okay. have a good funeral Let’s see it slowly.”
“yes. It’s been a while since you came, so please meet some people.”
“okay. I plan to see a few friends and have a glass of soju to pass the time. suffer.”
He patted my back lightly and went inside the house.
* * *
Oh Se-hyeon felt eyes glaring at him as soon as he entered.
A major shareholder of the Sunyang Group that cannot be taken lightly.
However, as Chief Lee Hak-jae said, their eyes were full of hostility.
The only warm eye is his friend Jin Yoon-gi.
Sehyeon Oh respectfully burned incense and bowed deeply.
“I don’t know how to tell you that you have been through such a shameful thing.”
When he said it as politely as possible, Jin Young-ki relaxed his expression.
“Thank you for your words of comfort.”
But he whispered softly in Oh Se-hyeon’s ear.
“Would you like to see me for a second?”
When Oh Se-hyeon nodded lightly and quietly stepped back, Jin Young-gi followed and winked at him.
Jin Yoon-gi saw this and tried to follow him, but the vibrator grabbed his hand.
“This is what shareholders and managers are talking about. There is no place for you.”

“He said he wasn’t feeling well, but he’s a bit sick. Seeing your face burnt… Golf…?”
“I’m not trying to kill myself, I’m treating my head and heart. Shall we call it a sabbatical year?”
When the two sat across from each other in the living room on the second floor, Manager Baek Joon-hyeok came running.
“Shall I prepare something to drink?”
“no. it’s over soon Oh, don’t let anyone come up.”
“yes. Vice President.”
When only the two of them were left, Oh Se-hyeon spoke first.
“Can the eldest brother leave his seat?”
“Stop talking nonsense. I’m busy, so I’m just talking about business. The shotgun will open soon.”
“I guess so. I can’t leave it empty.”
“I won’t tell you to give up your stake, so just give up your voting rights and go back like this. Spend some time playing golf in Southeast Asia. I will send you a good set of golf clubs.”
Oh Se-hyun shrugged and smiled.
“It can’t be. Do you use it if the major shareholder falls into the stock shot? We must exercise our sovereignty faithfully and correctly.”
“I’m not kidding.”
“I’m not kidding either.”
Their eyes staring at each other collided. It was Oh Se-hyun who took the sharp eyes first.
“Isn’t it a bit harsh to intimidate the large shareholder who came to condolences like this?”
“A normal major shareholder carries it on his back. CEO Oh is in fact a corporate hunter of hostile M&A, so I’m not even giving him a glass of water. haha.”
Seeing Jin Young-ki showing a relaxed appearance, Oh Se-hyeon smiled.
“You are mistaken. I am not interested in M&A. The Sunyang Group tries to swallow it, but gets caught in the throat and dies. I am a shareholder only interested in selecting the best executives. And in terms of managerial qualities alone, it is my judgment that Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki is better than Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki.”
“what?”
“Stop shouting and look back. Who has many cases of business failure? And isn’t it possible enough if you combine the stakes of Miracle and Vice Chairman Vibrator?”
Oh Se-hyun got up from the sofa.
“If you set a date for the general meeting, please contact me. Then… Ah, I wish the deceased a rest in peace.”
Leaving Jin Young-gi clenched his teeth, Oh Se-hyeon lightly bowed his head and came downstairs.
Oh Se-hyun, who met eyes with Vibrator Vice President, approached with a smile.
He brought his mouth to the vibrator’s ear.
“I’ll buy you a drink later.”
* * *
“Are you keeping hands and feet with Oh Se-hyun?”
“Suddenly, what does that mean?”
“Are you sure? If you intend to stab me in the back, stop. It is crossing a river of no return.”
“Why are you suddenly complaining again?”
The two of us came up to this floor because we had something to talk about. However, when I said it in a quarrel from the first word, the vibrator surged with irritation.
Jin Young-gi conveyed what Oh Se-hyeon had just said, without adding to or subtracting from it.
“Huh… older brother. Let’s not get caught up in that child. That guy only shows his power when our brothers separate. The casting boat is his only weapon. What are you going to do if you are shaken like this by such a shallow number?”
Jin Young-gi glared at his brother’s face and took a deep breath.
“good. I passed. Sorry.”
“are you okay. It’s because you’re sensitive, so I understand.”
“Motivation. I can’t possibly do it. If this is the case, I can’t live with anxiety. Let’s hurry up with the holding company.”
It was embarrassing, but the vibrator couldn’t say anything. Oh Se-hyeon’s casting boat could always be of help to Jin Young-ki.
To get rid of this anxiety factor, the best thing to do is to clean up the surroundings and leave only the siblings.
“okay. Immediately after the funeral…”
“No. Right from today!”
“huh?”
Looking at Jin Young-ki with a determined expression, it seemed that these words were not just spit out.
“From Lee Hak-jae to George. We have to let him help us. Then the transition to a holding company would be much faster.”
“I know… what does today mean?”
“You just contacted me. Officials from the Ministry of Justice say they are coming to condolences. I need to have a quiet talk with them.”
I knew what it meant.
Most of the officials of the Ministry of Justice are former prosecutors.
In particular, the main position in the Ministry of Justice is occupied by a person who is at the forefront among prosecutors and is in charge of the prosecution. If they step forward, putting pressure on Lee Hak-jae is like eating a piece of cake.
Jin Young-gi is going to ask them today.
“If you use a harpoon and save it, it will become compliant.”
The vibrator looked at the excited older brother and said.
“Everything is fine, but don’t run alone anymore. It’s a two-person triangle until the holding company is established and the shares are clearly divided.”
“what do you mean?”
“Why do you meet important mourners alone? In the future, you can’t be alone like that. Let’s meet and talk together. That way, there won’t be any misunderstandings like Oh Se-hyun did a moment ago. is not it?”
Jin Young-gi smiled softly at his younger brother with a serious expression.
“They say that it is the dead that reconciles and unites the living, and that is exactly the case. Because my father made us join hands.”
After a long time, the two sincerely held hands.
