A Lie Has Become Reality - A Lie Has Become Reality chapter 42
42 – The Beginning of the War
Kim Soo-hyun.
He is one of my few acquaintances who is doing internet broadcasting under the nickname Suming.
Maybe it’s because I haven’t seen your face, let alone contacted you recently, since I got help when I first started YouTube.
When I met her at a restaurant in Japan, not Korea, I was really dumbfounded.
“Sungwoo Kim?”
Kim Soo-hyun also had no idea that she would meet me here, and her face clearly showed a look of surprise.
I also quickly flicked my eyelids and opened my mouth.
“Why are you here?”
“I often come to Japan to travel when I have nothing to do. What are you doing in Japan?”
“I also have some business to do in Japan.”
“How can we meet right here? That’s interesting.”
She naturally sat down towards us.
Kim Ha-yoon and Park Yun-seong looked at me blankly and demanded an explanation with their eyes.
“My name is Suming, and I met him in Japan by chance. Is it okay if we join?”
“I am a fan of Suming! My name is Yunseong Park!”
“You are my fan! Nice to meet you.”
As soon as he hears the explanation, Park Yoon-seong jumps up from his seat and noisily asks Su-hyeon to shake his hand.
Kim Ha-yoon, who was sitting across from him, glanced at Park Yun-seong, who was making a fuss, with cold eyes.
“Ho… Making a fuss… “
“Kuhmm… !”
Only then did Park Yoon-seong, feeling embarrassed, sat down while rubbing the back of his neck.
Contrary to the worries that it would be awkward for each other, Kim Soo-hyun naturally melted into her place.
Kim Ha-yoon, who was wary of Su-hyeon at first, also became close to her and her older sister and younger sister.
“Is that so? Because of the voice actor, I stayed up all night watching videos of me meditating for 11 hours.”
“4… If it’s 400 million won… Maybe it’s just to sleep through the night… “
“CEO! If I start broadcasting, will you sponsor me?”
Still, it’s very commendable that the employees take my side.
It’s been awhile since we exchanged trivial jokes.
It wasn’t long before the staff started serving the food one after another with explanations.
“Before ordering, I prepared some small bites to whet your appetite.”
Unusually, it’s a Japanese restaurant, but a Korean employee came and started to guide you through the food in Korean.
Because Koreans come so often, do you provide customized services?
A fleeting thought.
When the main dishes started to come out in earnest, we stopped talking and started to focus on eating.
“Don’t… delicious… !”
Hayoon Kim, who put the food into her mouth first, burst out in admiration.
Eating delicious food is always exciting.
I also carefully pushed the food into my mouth with excitement.
“…… !”
I thought I had a good taste in gastronomy.
But what about this taste? It’s a taste I’ve never experienced before.
The feast of flavors bursting out with every bite captivated all the senses of the tongue.
Above all, look at this perfectly balanced taste.
It was truly Mimi, a taste that reached the level of art.
“The last course, dessert. In the middle, a chocolate dessert made from buckwheat is flavored with caramel sauce flavored with black tea. After eating, finish with espresso chocolate on the right. We also prepared an apple sorbet for you to enjoy in one last bite.”
Even the desserts that came out at the end were neatly cleared.
It’s been a long time since I’ve had a meal that left such an aftertaste.
“Really crazy… “
Park Yunseong muttered that he was crazy throughout the meal.
I also nodded my head because I fully understood how he felt.
Leaving the party staring at the plate with regret, I got up from my seat and walked to the counter to pay.
“I will help you pay for 200,000 yen, customer.”
200,000 Yen, 2 million won in Korean currency.
Without hesitation, I took out my card wallet and handed over my credit card.
“Payment completed. Thank you, guest!”
When I returned to my seat after paying roughly, two people except for Kim Soo-hyun disappeared from their seats.
“Where did the two of you go?”
“Ha-yoon and Yoon-seong said we should leave first to go to the bathroom?”
“Really?”
“Yeah, so go out first. I’ll just pay and follow.”
“Then go out first.”
I had already paid for everything, but I was curious about the reaction, so I didn’t bother to inform them in advance.
I went to her counter to make her payment, left her in her, I opened the door and walked out.
While I was breathing in the moist air and looking around, two people who went to the bathroom opened the door and hurriedly ran out.
“Respected CEO! I really enjoyed the meal!”
“Well… I really enjoyed the meal… !”
Behind Kim Ha-yoon and Park Yun-seong, who thanked me for the good meal, Su-hyeon with a new look on her face approached me quickly.
“Did you pay for mine too?”
“Is that so? I don’t remember very well.”
When she let go of her pretense, she burst out laughing.
“Thank you, I enjoyed my meal.”
“With something like this.”
“What are you going to do now? Do you have plans?”
“We have to go back to our inn now.”
Of course, I plan to go back to the dorm and lay down on the bed without thinking.
You must have filled your stomach, isn’t it the national rule to go into the dorm and take a nap?
However, Park Yoon-seong, who is known by nature, argued and listened to my words as if he did not understand at all.
“What kind of small is that, CEO! There is so much time left!”
“You’re noisy, Mr. Yunseong.”
“Don’t… That’s right, oppa Yunseong… Keep an eye out… !”
“This…I can’t believe it…!”
I sternly cut Park Yun-seong’s words and turned her head.
Suhyeon laughed as he lowered his head, clutching his left arm with his right arm, wondering what was so funny.
After laughing for a long time, he finally calmed down, wiping away his tears with his fingers and opening his mouth.
“I’m going home tomorrow too, so I’ll go to the dorm first. Did you eat well? See you again in Korea later, Ha Yoon-i and Yun-seong!”
“Go in, Mr. Suhyeon!”
“Again… see you sister… !”
I didn’t say anything, instead of saying hello with a hand gesture.
“We also go in here.”
“My… I’ll call a taxi… !”
While Kim Ha-yoon called for a taxi, I looked at the strangely quiet Park Yun-seong.
The guy was staring at the back of Kim Soo-hyun as he left.
Looking closely, this guy’s earlobes are red…
“Huh.”
You bastard.
Are you a gold digger?

Korea Development Bank Yeouido headquarters office.
Choi Hyun-woo, Chairman of the Korea Development Bank.
He was reclining on the black leather executive couch, talking to a man with his legs crossed.
“Hmm, so Chosun Airlines will now take over Atin Airlines, so please help us in the management dispute. Is my understanding correct?”
“Yes, Chairman. Exactly.”
“Whoa.”
At least, Chairman Choi Hyun-woo wasn’t usually in trouble because of Atin Airlines.
In the already gloomy air industry, the financial situation of Atin Airlines, which has no answer, would not be strange even if it collapsed immediately.
If, as Jeon Tae-hyun said, Chosun Airlines takes over Atin Airlines and gains competitiveness, Korea Development Bank is tantamount to solving a long-cherished business.
However, accepting the offer without hesitation is no different from sewage.
Chairman Choi Hyun-woo expressed his negative opinion with a pained voice.
“The proposal itself is attractive. But… “
As Chairman Choi Hyun-woo took a break, the air in the office suddenly became heavy.
“…… If a government-owned bank intervenes in a management dispute, it is no different from collusion between politics and business.”
Chairman Choi Hyun-woo raised the corners of his mouth and put on a mean smile.
Jeon Tae-hyeon let out a short sigh and continued his words in a calm voice.
“Chairman Choi Hyun-woo.”
“Yes, you can.”
“Honestly, I know that politics and business collusion is not just an excuse.”
“… Her?”
“How did it take a day or two for Korea Development Bank to carry out restructuring in this way?”
“…… Big!”
It is as Jeon Tae-hyun said.
Since the KDB has literally restructured ‘corporations in ruin’, such things as shareholder rights, commercial law, collusion between politics and business, and monopoly have not been such a big problem until now.
Jeon Tae-hyeon’s attitude now seemed to be convinced that the mountain bank could not refuse his deal.
“Atin Airlines is already in a situation of total difficulty. I, Jeon Tae-hyeon, will bet my name and say it clearly here. If you give us a little help, Attin Airlines and Chosun Airlines will definitely take over.”
“Heh heh…… “
In Jeon Tae-hyeon’s burning eyes, there was no doubt that he was determined to burn everything.
“Good. This offer is well balanced.”
“Ha ha ha…… “
“But how do you plan to resolve the board voting rights issue? Currently, Vice Chairman Jeon Hyo-min must be holding tight on the frontlines.”
Board Voting Rights.
This whole process can be established only when the voting rights of the board of directors belong to Jeon Tae-hyun.
As if waiting for this question, Jeon Tae-hyeon twisted his lips as he faced Chairman Choi Hyun-woo.
“You don’t have to worry about that. There is one sure hand.”
“Hmm?”
“Jeon Hyo-min’s reputation will soon fall completely into hell. At that time, I will take responsibility and make Jeon Hyo-min withdraw from the front line.”
Seongwoo Kim.
Jeon Tae-hyun has a joker named Kim Seong-woo in his hand.
If Kim Seong-woo explodes the bomb at the right time, he plans to publicize all the petty corruptions of former Hyo-min that he has collected in a chain.

“You seem to have a fairly solid hand? hahahaha.”
“You can trust us.”
“Well, we can go and decide at that time, so there is no problem.”
“Don’t worry. We will show you the results soon.”
“If you say that, I will try to believe it too.”
Chairman Choi Hyun-woo got up first and asked Jeon Tae-hyun to shake hands.
Jeon Tae-hyeon also stood up from his seat and received Chairman Choi Hyun-woo’s handshake with a tear-jerking smile.
The office started to be filled with the sound of two men laughing loudly.
