[069] First fight 1
Chief Lee Hak-jae tilted his head at Chairman Jin’s laughter.
“President. CEO Oh Se-hyun is not so easygoing. He knows better than anyone the value of a dollar in his company.”
“This manager. Is Oh Se-hyun the owner?”
“yes?”
“Did I tell you? Note. Seal. I am friendly with you Oh Se-hyun is just a dry skin.”
A Marum is just an agent of a landlord, and of course there is a landlord. Shareholders and investors are the owners.
“President. no way…?”
No one dared to say it, but everyone in the study looked like they wanted to see if Miracle was Chairman Jin’s company.
“what? what about those eyes? don’t get me wrong not my money How do I collect that many dollars? My pockets are empty because you guys didn’t work hard. no?”
When everyone hesitated whether to laugh or not, Chairman Jin banged on the desk.
“it’s okay. everyone go out Never miss my instructions and follow them thoroughly.”
Chief Lee Hak-jae made eye contact with the chairman for a moment, but he nodded lightly, realizing that he was included.
And Lee Hak-jae, who left the study for the last time, confirmed Chairman Jin’s smile that hadn’t disappeared until then.

The atmosphere is different.
If he had a countermeasures meeting because of a crisis, he would have to have a frozen expression, but he has a pretty bright face.
Is it because the financial power is solid because it is the sunyang group that is the number 1 in the business world?
After confirming that Chief Lee Hak-jae was leaving for the last time, I went into the study.
“Oh my, the owner is here? haha.”
“yes?”
owner? I?
Could it be that today’s emergency meeting designated me as the successor?
It would never have happened, but my heart was pounding with useless imagination.
“Aren’t you the owner of Miracle, my grandson? Today, I am not meeting my grandfather and grandson. Let’s talk about something important between the two owners.”
“What do you mean by all of a sudden? Scary…….”
“Where are you? it’s written all over your face I’m going to die of fun.”
It’s not my expression, it’s my grandfather’s expression.
Negotiation is the aesthetics of tension and nervousness.
The fun belongs to the person who already has the upper hand so that there is no room for negotiation.
Neither Grandpa and I must have the upper hand, so they say we both have hidden cards… I know mine, but I don’t know Grandpa’s.
What is it? With the foreign exchange crisis approaching by the minute, why is it showing such composure?
“But what about the important story? Are you talking about the ratio of shares in the merger between the two car companies?”
“Oh, there was that too. do that later There are more important things.”
What’s more important? Is it really a succession problem for Sunyang Group?
However, my own happy imagination was short-lived.
“Did you prepare the payment for the acquisition of Ajin Group?”
“What are you ready for? You can transfer it from an overseas account to a domestic account.”
“Of course it must be dollars?”
I didn’t miss the twinkle in my grandfather’s eyes when he said the word dollar.
Right.
Securing dollars in case of foreign exchange crisis.
For the Sunyang Group and my grandfather, this was the most important issue.
“yes. It’s in dollars because it’s in an American bank.”
“I won’t change that. 1.2 trillion. Right?”
“yes.”
“Let’s see since the exchange rate is around 1,200 won right now……. It’s just 1 billion dollars, right?”
“yes. you’re right.”
“Let’s move right away, even tomorrow.”
“I don’t like it.”
“what?”
“It’s complicated. You can just give it to the creditor bank, but why are you spinning it around?”
Grandpa started to stare at me with a smile.
“Are you…?”
“yes. I have eyes and ears. The dollar continues to rise. In any case, the merger of Sunyang Ajin Motors must be completed before the creditors sign the acquisition approval. Payment is made after that. For me, it pays off slowly.”
It was even cute to see the old friends looking at me with surprised eyes, but the texture of my life is different. He calms down in an instant and even shows a faint smile.
“yes. That’s how you come out, you’re my grandson. Cancer Now it’s getting a little fun. haha.”
Laughter takes the time to think quickly. An inspiration like a squirrel!
and subsequent suggestions.
“Don’t give me 1,500 won. How are you?”
“Write a little more.”
“Such a robber. good night. 1600 won.”
“There is no way.”
“Hey. Isn’t that the dollar you’ve collected now, the money you bought by selling the ranch I bought for you? Did you forget that?”
“It was a deal. I studied hard throughout my childhood and got 100 marks in all subjects, which made my grandfather happy and received a ranch in return. I know you spent tens of millions of won to buy the ranch, but if you bought that level of joy with tens of millions of won, it was a reasonable deal. How many tens of thousands of won for your grandfather is tens of thousands of won for ordinary people?”
“scent-! Gogo is a very toxic guy. Do you remember all of that?”
Grandpa shook his head.
“You are the one who revealed what happened ten years ago.”
“I think I dried this…. It’s good. How much will you pay? You tell me.”
“The balance is not right because you want to buy dollars that will be more precious than gold with won that will be pieces of toilet paper. Put something else on the scale.”
“what? tissue?”
Grandpa’s expression, which had never lost his light smile, changed drastically.
“Did you call it tissue paper because you thought the exchange rate would rise?”
“Didn’t you say this to me because you couldn’t get one because you didn’t have any dollars? If you can’t buy it even with money, that money is toilet paper. Isn’t it won-hwa toilet paper that can’t play the role of money?”
Grandpa couldn’t help but start tapping the desk.
Was it too hard?
My heart weakens when I feel my grandfather’s concern.
Should I give you some dollar support at a moderate level?
Whoa… What are you thinking now?
I can’t throw away this opportunity that is hard to come again because of that affection.
gritted it
Finally, Grandpa spoke quietly.
“How did you know there is no dollar in this country?”
“It’s the press.”
“what? Press?”
“yes. All kinds of danger signals are pouring in from the media. Everyone who knows will try to come up with countermeasures, but… you know it’s already too late.”
“The press likes provocative things. It is a bit exaggerated.”
I want to know what’s inside my head to say such a thing even though I feel the risk with my skin.
“grandfather. The truth is… like a book of poetry, for example.”
“divan?”
“yes. New collections of poetry are published all the time, but most people don’t read them. But many poets have won the Nobel Prize for Literature.”
I have no choice but to answer like a Zen dialogue. And old people like this kind of answer.
“That is correct. The truth is strong, but most people can’t read it or ignore it.”
The grandfather nodded and returned his smile.
“good night. Then what should I put on the scale to be balanced?”
I didn’t do anything stupid to answer first. It’s the Sunyang group that fell into the water anyway, and the life jacket is in my hand.
When the water rises over your chest and up to the bottom of your nose, when you feel enough fear and start tossing the gold nugget in your pocket, hand over your life jacket.
“I’ll put the merger ratio negotiations on the table. Shall we clean it up in one shot?”
“The merger rate?”
I tilted my head as if I couldn’t understand the two meanings in this word at once.
No explanation was added. He is the one who will understand the true meaning immediately.
“Oh my… look at this guy. He was a very dark-skinned bastard!”
This is the moment when the nickname ‘iron-faced’ doesn’t suit him at all.
It was clearly revealed that all sorts of indescribable emotions were passing by.
At the time of the merger, the Sunyang Group’s stake was raised to Sunyang Motor, and the merger ratio was favorable to me.
You must have understood these two things correctly. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have expressed the dark stomach.
“It’s not black, and you think it’s a reasonable request that you can bring to the negotiating table?”
“The old man’s words are as shiny as if they were coated with sesame oil, but he is greedy.”
As the essence hidden in words was brought before me, there was no need for sloppy excuses.
“Where is there a person in the world who is not greedy? Wouldn’t it be business and business to appease others’ greed and satisfy my own?”
“Ohh!”
“And being greedy is something to be criticized for anyway, so I will be very greedy for being criticized.”
Grandpa’s lips twitch.
what words will come out
“You are a true filial son, no filial son. haha.”
“of course. Hasn’t it only brought you joy so far? When I was young, I made it fun by studying, and when I grew up, I prepared the necessary money. It’s hard to find a grandson like this anywhere.”
I said a little smirk to turn the atmosphere around, but the grandfather rather laughed.
“Yes, but you gave me a bigger one.”
“……?”
“From the moment Sunyang led the affiliates and became a group, no one stood up to me. All I did was cringe and try to get mine. After thoroughly preparing, I couldn’t find a guy who would clenched his fists and try to steal what was mine, even after washing my eyes.”
no way?
Will it burn again at the age of over seventy?
Even against grandchildren?
“Even if I generously share my things, I won’t be taken away from them.”
“grandfather. Could it be that it’s bigger… that’s not it?”
“right. I’m thinking of trying to revive the dying embers. Let’s try it. who wins.”
“grandfather! I am the grandson by blood!”
“Wouldn’t that be more fun? A fight between grandfather and grandson. After saying this, I feel a little embarrassed…. What do you think? It’s fun. Uh-huh.”
It’s unclear whether it’s serious or a joke, but it’s been a long time since I’ve been in the middle of a long time. I didn’t even expect that much anyway.
“Now, the owner with a lot of dollars. I will make the offer first.”
“…yes.”
I made the most sullen face. Even the sad expression of the grandson becomes a deadly weapon to the grandfather.
“I decide the share of affiliates to be added to the merger ratio Sunyang Motors, and you just accept it. Maybe what I give you is far more than what you gain by fighting. am i your grandfather? There is no grandfather who is mean to his grandson. How are you?”
Damn, there are no lethal weapons for this old man.
“As my grandfather said, I am Hyo-son.”
“Does that mean you accept my offer?”
“Hyo-son does not take away the joy of his grandfather.”
A smile bloomed across Grandpa’s face.
“yes. A man who surrenders without a fight is not a man. It is natural to decline the first offer.”
“Do you have a second suggestion?”
“There is, but it is not an offer. Usually this is called intimidation. If you are threatened, you will regret why you turned down the first offer.”
I swallowed dry saliva. What kind of threat is this?
There is nothing to be intimidated about yet.
“Since you rejected my offer, there will be no merger between Sunyang and Ajin. Tomorrow morning, President Cho Dae-ho will hold a press conference. Miracle, the acquisition target of the Ajin Group, made many unreasonable demands, so the merger failed. We apologize for causing concern to the public. What is this?”
This man does not yet know exactly the magnitude of the foreign exchange crisis.
Companies are not the only places to hold on to my pants crotch. So is the bank.
Do you believe too much in the great magic? Do you think only banks are safe?
It is worth noticing what the bankruptcy of Korea Securities, one of the financial institutions, means.
The tension melted away.
“It’s a bit weak for a threat, isn’t it?”
Now it’s your turn to appreciate the bewildered look on your grandfather’s face.
