[053] When telling a secret 3.
Looking at the grandfather drinking water, he said anxiously.
“Even if it’s a hwang cheongsimhwan…”
“Noisy bastard. Do you think I’m weak enough to have to eat that pill?”
“I was so surprised…”
Grandpa shook his hand vigorously and let out a long breath.
“Do-joon. Didn’t I hear that wrong? You don’t mean to ask for an Ajin car, not a car, as a gift for your entrance exam, right?”
“no. It means I take over with my own money.”
“It’s your money… How much do you think the price of Ajin’s acquisition is so confident?”
He tried to keep his composure, but his speech was faster than usual.
“If your grandfather took over, how much would you write down?”
When I hinted at the argument, Grandpa caught his breath and blinked.
“Um… well, okay. If it’s me… Huh? do you see this guy? Uh-huh.”
sudden outburst of laughter. He completely regained his composure and understood the hidden meaning of my question.
A place to listen to the other person’s thoughts first. You may have remembered the teaching that this is the prerogative of rulers.
“You bastard. Now you have to speak first. I’m still over your head. Where do you get sneaky tricks? haha.”
“For now, it is expected to be 1.5 trillion. There must be a variable, and I think we need to diagnose the condition of Ajin Motors to know exactly.”
“Umm…”
“You’re not surprised.”
“what? Because of the amount?”
It was the first number that came out of my mouth. It’s not the entire amount I have, but the moment I say the acquisition price is 1.5 trillion, it means that my money is more than that.
However, my grandfather only worries about whether the amount is appropriate, but does not show any reaction to my money.
Is it bold? Are you calm?
Or do you not think that 1.5 trillion is a lot because it is not big for this person?
“why? Should you be surprised how you got so much money? Or do you want to be praised for doing well?”
“Praise comes later, doesn’t it? In terms of current cash holdings, I have more than the entire Sunyang Group. I thought you would be surprised to see that an individual has outpaced the No. 1 group in the business world.”
Grandpa’s eyes changed.
“Hey boy. I know you want to brag, but if you’re a guy who wants to take over Ajin, you’ll have to hold on to more than that.”
It is the eyes looking at the cute grandson.
“I was surprised enough when you said you would take over. Now I’m just curious, but I don’t want to be surprised. And isn’t it urgent to solve your curiosity? Curiosity is not a priority. Now it is Ajin Motors.”
“Then do you believe me? It’s over 1 trillion won?”
“If you’re sane, you can’t talk nonsense, can you? With such an important issue in front of us.”
I wanted to pat myself on the knee when I was told that curiosity is not a priority. The most intense temptation, but not the first.
Sunyang is a place where a huge number of people do new things every day. It is very important to prioritize when dealing with the myriad issues facing you at the pinnacle.
Curiosity should always be deferred.
I also asked a necessary question, not out of curiosity.
“What is the purchase price your grandfather thinks?”
“I do not know.”
“yes?”
Shake your head without thinking for a second. I was also somewhat embarrassed. Conversation without give or take is evidence of a superior-subordinate relationship.
“I didn’t look into it because I had no intention of acquiring it. It was only six years ago that we looked at each item, but there must be a lot of difference from now.”
“Will you help me?”
“I’m thinking about it.”
I asked cautiously, but I didn’t get a clear answer.
“It means that you are thinking about why you want to take over Ajin Motors and whether it will really help Sunyang when you take over.”
Looking carefully at his grandfather’s expression, it seemed that he wasn’t just saying it.
I closed my mouth and waited quietly.
What do you think?
Is this the idea of a grandfather who loves his grandson dearly? Or is it the idea of the chairman who prioritizes the Sunyang Group he has built above all else?
It would be great if the two thoughts coincided, but it is still difficult to know the results.
“good night. Let’s try this.”
Grandpa, who had been thinking for a long time, finally spoke up.
I unknowingly swallowed my saliva. I hope you won’t turn away?
“Let’s say it’s an event where my grandson Do-joon, the owner of Ajin Motors, and Hal-ae-bi Lee, the owner of Sunyang Motors, come together to merge the two companies.”
Am I already reading my thoughts and my plans?
I hesitated for a long time as to what to say, as if I had heard that Ajin Motors was just a stepping stone to absorb Sunyang Motors.
Grandpa paused for a moment, as if waiting for my reaction, but grinned at my bewildered expression.
“I would like to hear your opinion on the ratio of the merger between the two companies.”
After thinking about it for a while, a strange idea came to my mind.
Now is not the time to pliably answer Grandpa’s questions. Rather, it is time to ask questions. Even if it is to know the truth of the grandfather.
“Why do you think we will merge?”
“What if we don’t merge? Do you think you can protect Ajin Motor with your abilities? Maybe within a year, it will be eaten by Daehyun Group? No, do you think you can do business properly?”
The smile was like a mocking mockery. But I was able to show my composure. I also have a compound eye.
“You don’t have to worry about management.”
“It’s black. Do you have a corner to believe in?”
“That’s right.”
“Ohh!”
It was pure admiration, not the slightest bit of ridicule.
It must be that I am not only ahead of what I want to have, but also come up with countermeasures.
“If you have the capacity to lead the company, the merger could be canceled, right?”
“That’s why you’re not too confident…”
“It’s black again.”
Grandpa cut off my confident words and wiggled his fingers.
“There is never an offer that is not accepted. If the scale doesn’t fit, just adjust it. Please tell me the merger ratio. How much more should I put on the scale?”
“1 : 0.2”
“Such a robber!”
Contrary to the words that came out of his mouth, he had a surprised expression and suppressed laughter.
“Considering market share, brand value, new car development capability, and technology, Sunyang Motors has only 20% of Ajin Motors. These are the opinions of automotive experts, not mine.”
“Are you saying that because you don’t know? That’s purely a separate word for the car part, and it should also reflect the hidden value. Doesn’t the stock price tell you?”
Sunyang Motor’s share price is more than twice that of Ajin Motor. The reason is because of Sunyang Motor’s stake in affiliates of Sunyang Group.
The moment you control Sunyang Motors, you control half of the Sunyang Group.
“Are you planning on putting that hidden value on the scale?”
“Look at what you do. haha.”
The negotiations ended with a pleasant laugh from the grandfather. In the name of negotiations, my grandfather revealed a little bit of his heart during the rehearsal, and I confided many secrets.
My secret of coveting the Sunyang Group and my grandfather’s heart that I have room to pass on the group. It wasn’t a cool answer, but this is enough for now.
“Do-joon.”
“yes.”
“The friend of Daehyun Group Chairman Joo will not want to miss this opportunity. On the other hand, I didn’t prepare anything at all. That inspiration has tied my limbs together.”
“I don’t think it will be easy.”
“Chairman Joo will judge that you are only a variable, not a competitor.”
“It’s good when the other person is off guard.”
“It’s good to shout loudly, but you have to have a reason. Let’s listen. Let me give you a score on how smart our youngest is.”
I calmly explained how to acquire Ajin Motors. Of course, that method also included where to use the power of the chairman of the Sunyang Group.
“……So, creditors should hurry up and not put off the pressure to collect loans. The sooner Ajin Motors goes bankrupt, the better.”
“I see now that I was interfering with the plans of our grandchildren, not Daehyun Group. It was because he was buying time by meeting creditors and feeding expensive sashimi. haha.”
Seeing him laughing broadly, he must have liked my plan.
“How did you score? grandfather.”
“I can’t give a perfect score because it’s not a correct answer, but it’s subjective, so it’s not even a score. And in the current situation, that seems to be the best thing. good good!”
I was relieved to see my grandfather, who smiled and nodded his head.
“Now I must satisfy my curiosity. Where did you get more money than the amount of money held by Sunyang Group?”
“I invested the money from the ranch in Bundang in an overseas IT company, and the stock price skyrocketed. That’s how much money I make.”
“Seeing that he was called more than a hundred times, I have a good feeling about someone like Oh Se-hyun.”
I didn’t bother to say that it was me, not Oh Se-hyeon. If I said that I, who was a national student, led the investment, my old grandfather would really collapse.
“I was lucky.”
“What kind of position are you in an investment company called Miracle? if…?”
“I am the largest shareholder. 98% stake.”
“Then what about Oh Se-hyun?”
“I am the CEO. Don’t you have a lot of grandfathers too? A professional contestant.”
I should have prepared Woohwangcheongsimhwan. The surprised look is unsettling.
“Then you know that 100 billion won of my money is sleeping in your company, right?”
“It was a lot of money, too. If you give me 7% of Ajin Motor stock, I am thinking of returning all of my investment returns.”
“Of course not, man. Where are you going to gulp my bloody money!”
“I was expecting my grandfather to just use that money as a gift for my entrance, but… isn’t that too much?”
I laughed and said, but Grandpa didn’t laugh.
“If you want to buy an island worth 100 billion won as a gift, I will buy it for you. If you ask me to buy a private plane worth 100 billion won, I will buy that too. But money is not just giving.”
“Because money allows you to have anything you want?”
“That’s it. In the future, when your subordinates do a good job, give them a little money. Even if you take her to a room salon and buy her a few million won worth of alcohol, you shouldn’t give her money. I want a drunkard to think that I will give you money for this drink.”
“Hope advisor. By giving them the expectation that if they do a better job, they will be paid for that drink.”
“Oh, my smart kid. If you pretend, you’re right.”
It’s not smart. I know because I have experienced it and felt it desperately.
I spent millions of won for a night of drinking and swiped my corporate card. He gave me a racing girl from the motor show as a reward for one night for handling the woman problem well. I found out later, but the woman’s flower bag was over 500.
This is the compensation I received the day after my wife ripped off my mother-in-law’s hospital bill by 2 million won.
The price of alcohol… How many times have I wished that all the money was mine?
“Do-joon.”
Suddenly, because of my grandfather who quietly calls me, I escaped from my memories of the past.
“yes. grandfather.”
“Do not let anyone know until you get Ajin Motor. You hide thoroughly and let only Oh Se-hyeon come out.”
“I think so. Grandpa too…”
“Of course. Even Lee Hak-jae, head of the department, wouldn’t know.”
As we laughed each other’s satisfied laughter, my grandfather called me in a more subdued voice.
“Do-joon.”
“yes.”
“How much do you have in all your possessions? How much is left after taking over Ajin Motors?”
That face full of curiosity. I laughed and shook my head.
“You can’t open someone else’s wallet carelessly. Oh, if you need cash, let me know. I will lend it to you.”
Grandpa jumped up and came over to me and put his arms around my shoulders.
“Great job, my baby. You’re all grown up.”
