Son of a Conglomerate at the Highest Level - Son of a Conglomerate at the Highest Level chapter 107

＜ only eight years old ＞

Holding my father’s hand, I came out of the meeting room at Taesung Group’s headquarters.

My father’s face was deep in thought.

Therefore, at some point, the walking speed began to increase.

The golden ratio model-like height unnecessarily lengthened my legs, so it was difficult to match the stride with my short legs.

“ah···! this.”

My father hugged me tightly.

“Tell me to walk slowly. I didn’t expect to be running like this.”

“are you okay. You still got a little sore.”

“The whole time I was sitting still and calm. It must have been boring and boring, but I suffered.”

My father gave me a small pat on the back.

As my father strode away, I held my father’s neck tightly.

The smell of men’s cologne tickled his nostrils.

“Jeonghyuk, can I ask you one question?”

“What is it?”

“A note.”

Are you referring to what I sent to President Sim earlier?

“Who did you get it from?”

“······yes?”

I was bewildered.

My father glanced around and whispered softly in my ear.

“The person who secretly helps Taeseong from behind sometimes sends a note.”

Come to think of it, when the president called my father for a private drinking party, I delivered three notes through Secretary Kim.

Thanks to this, my father caught the president’s eye and was able to receive three drinks and an invitation to a luncheon at the Blue House.

“The favor of those who hide their purpose and intentions should not be accepted lightly.”

I was startled.

I can’t believe my father could see right through my ambitions, my goals, and even my intentions at once…

“Even if a strange man gives you candy, you shouldn’t follow him.”

“…”

Hey!

I said, ‘I’m the one behind that note!’ Instead of making a surprise announcement, he nodded his head with a solemn face.

“I hate that candy.”

“Even if they buy you sweets, chocolate, ice cream, cotton candy and bread, of course…”

This is nagging again!

The normally taciturn nobleman strangely looks at me and treats me as if he were treating a child who was left at the water’s edge.

I opened my coin purse and slipped a piece of candy into my father’s mouth.

“hmm?”

“If you use your hair a lot, they say you have to eat sweets. ”

It was a candy that a female employee in the secretary’s office took care of.

My father, who accidentally accepted and ate the candy, looked at me with his mouth shut.

“Are you going to rest at least until this candy is all melted?”

I smiled lightly.

“You were focused throughout the meeting.”

huh? What is a piece of candy, you look at it with such thrilled eyes?

“My son is the best.”

My father hugged me tightly.

Mixed with the heavy scent of perfume, the sweet strawberry scent spread.

In a defenseless state, I stopped laughing like a child without even realizing it.

“Our Jeonghyeok was really dignified. Who would look at our son as an eight-year-old?”

“hehehehe.”

“He doesn’t tremble in front of so many adults and speaks well. It was really cool.”

The kisses I received here and there tickled me.

I wonder if I was the kind of person who couldn’t manage facial expressions like this.

Damn, what a child’s body!

“My son must have been very hungry because he hadn’t even had dinner until now. Would Daddy buy you jjajangmyeon?”

“What’s all about jajangmyeon tonight?”

“then?”

“Late night snack is, of course, chicken. Dad’s beer, I’m Coke. how is it?”

“It’s good.”

So we got to the parking lot.

“If our Jeonghyeok wants to eat chicken… shall we stop by the Myeongdong Nutrition Center when we go home later?”

The Myeong-dong Nutrition Center was a whole chicken restaurant that was very famous in those days.

“Um, maybe business hours are over by then?”

I smiled lightly.

“I will prepare a very special chicken. So it’s not too late today.”

“hmm?”

When it comes to chicken in this era, electric grilled whole chicken was the most popular, followed by market chicken fried in a cauldron with a lot of oil.

‘Because seasoned chicken was developed in the 80’s. Maybe you’ll be surprised when you try it?’

Chimaek is so awesome, right?

Besides, there are half and half radishes in chicken!

Come to think of it, was there a chicken radish at this time?

Well, that’s no problem!

Back when I was working part-time in the kitchen, I had a few fried chickens and a few truckloads of cut radishes.

“As a matter of course, you assume working overtime until curfew.”

“It’s when you’re busy.”

“Junghyuk, is your father planning to go home with Junghyuk?”

“I don’t think that’s a very good idea.”

“hmm?”

“look. Even after the meeting, no executives from affiliates come down to the parking lot.”

Only then did the father look back in amazement.From noble mtl dot com

Not a single executive went home, and the lights in the conference room at the head office didn’t even turn off.

“It’s not like they’re paying more, but it means that the executives are eager to work overtime.”

“…”

“Taesung’s future and business direction will change depending on which Wookwang affiliates it acquires. Everyone is busy because they know that.”

My father wiped his face with a strange expression.

“At times like this, Dad can’t be left out. Don’t worry about me and go in.”

My father squatted down to be at eye level with me.

His eyes looking at me were deep and warm.

“I am only eight years old now. I think I came in too early.”

“Is that a compliment?”

“No, I am reflecting.”

My father stroked my cheek gently.

“Daddy is busy, so he can’t even make dinner for his son, and he has to send him home alone.”

“What’s wrong with that?”

I rummaged through my coin purse and robbed the rest of the candy.

He placed colorful candies on his father’s palm.

“Take it easy and work in your spare time.”

My father squeezed a few candies that were rolling in the palm of his hand.

The hand stroking my hair was soft.

“I’ll leave.”

“Eat first and go to sleep. Don’t starve while waiting for Dad. Understand?”

“yes.”

I quietly climbed into the car.

burrung!

“Brother Jeonghyeok, wait!”

Sim ran out with a gasp.

In his hand was a note I had sent.

Father’s eyes flashed when he found the note.

“Chief Shim, would you like to look at me for a second?”

The car had already started, leaving Father and Sim in the parking lot.

Right.

‘Hey, guardian deity!’

Squeak.

‘Check what’s going on!’

[I get it.]

* * *

Father said to Mr. Sim.

“Did Mr. Shim get the note too?”

“yes? yes.”

“Are you sent by someone behind the secretly helping Taeseong from behind?”

“Did you know?”

“Who are you?”

President Shim kept his mouth shut with an expression that he had a lot to say.

“sorry. It doesn’t seem like it’s in my power to do that.”

“There’s no way the anonymous mastermind isn’t scheming. I didn’t know that even President Shim would agree.”

“He is the one who helps Taeseong. This is also for Taeseong…”

“Can I take a look?”

Sim hesitated for a moment before handing out the note.

＜Taesung Chemical, Investment Company, Oil Refining Company. Have you decided? Do you have enough funds for the acquisition? In order to receive a loan, the Middle East project must be completed quickly.＞

Father looked at the note and gathered his brows.

He looked at the judge in silence with eyes demanding a more specific explanation.

“I got an offer on New Year’s Day. When Taesung Chemical was taken over by Woo-gwang and his position changed dramatically.”

“My older brothers scrambled to make a recruitment offer to President Shim.”

“Yes, do you remember who I chose then?”

“I wasn’t even offered the job I deserved, but he chose me.”

Sim said at the time:

– I will do whatever you ask me to do.

– But still. I’d like to put the position I’ve been offered on hold for a while.

-I have two unfinished missions left.

the father said

“At that time, President Shim said that he was putting it on hold because of two duties.”

“yes. One of them was to bring Taesung Chemical back.”

“The other thing was to lay the groundwork for another future of Taeseong?”

“you’re right.”

“You said it was a much bigger and grander plan than bringing Taesung Chemical back, and it was an issue that would have a ripple effect on the country’s finance and industry as a whole.”

Sim nodded.

“Chief Shim asked me to wait until he took responsibility for the task, which is a secret for security reasons, and completed it without fail.”

“Yes, this is one of the futures of Taeseong.”

“Is this what you mean?”

Father looked at the note again.

“Taesung Chemical, an investment company, an oil refining company… Do you mean to take over Wookwang Chemical, Wookwang Securities, and Wookwang Refinery?”

“······yes? Does this make sense?”

“…”

Sim snatched the note from his father’s hand and read it again.

Then, trembling, he said.

“Huh, I didn’t know you had Wookwang Chemical and Wookwang Securities in mind already! No, is this possible?”

“…?”

Father’s head tilted or not.

Sim looked at the note and let out a laugh.

“What if Wookwang Oil was really acquired? This will be the largest oil refinery in Korea?”

“Chief Shim?”

“It’s not that it isn’t, but maybe it’s really possible?”

Sim rubbed his chin.

“If Wookwang Oil Refinery accumulates a lot of debt during the oil crisis, it will be possible to take over at the price of sh*t…”

“Chief Shim?”

“So, when are you planning to send executives from Taesung Chemical to the Middle East?”

“Send Taesung chemical executives to the Middle East?”

“Yes, the construction order that Mr. Seongjun received from the Middle East. I was wondering if we should hurry up with the project.”

Sim added urgently.

“I think it would be better to complete the construction as soon as possible and receive the balance before the second oil shock strikes.”

“Oh, I see.”

“You have to prove your skills with grades, because it will be easier to get a loan.”

“loan?”

“yes. The world economy will be reeling from the oil crisis. The oil-based heavy industries will be hit by bad news and start to go bankrupt.”

Father then Ah! I admired it.

“Yes, if the world economy sinks enough to cause the world’s heavy industrialized countries to go bankrupt, the other side will make a lot of money.”

“Let’s attract overflowing money from oil-producing countries?”

“Wu-Kwang continues to sink. What if an oil crisis strikes while negotiations to acquire Wookwang affiliates continue?”

“Let’s bring in foreign loans to fund the acquisition of Wookwang’s subsidiaries, which have become sh*t prices? Even in an oil-producing country overflowing with oil money?”

My father let out a blank laugh as he looked at the note.

“This person helping Taeseong behind the scenes. Are you a genius?”

Sim’s expression turned dark.

But my father rubbed his chin in admiration.

“This is the first time I’ve ever seen someone who puts together a plate so meticulously and deliberately.”

President Shim had a lot to say.

“My father said he wouldn’t be an ordinary big shot. It really is. A person with this level of skill would probably be a very famous person.”

President Shim seemed to swallow the words that were about to come out of his throat.

“Who are you?”

President Sim punched only his chest with his fist and finally let out a long sigh.

“I just want to let you know that he is the future of Taeseong, the blessing of Taeseong, and a very close person who fully supports Taeseong.”

“The future of Taeseong, and a very close person who supports Taeseong?”

The more Shim spoke, the deeper his father’s eyebrows grew.

“You’re not Secretary Kim, are you?”

“You got it wrong.”

President Shim snorted and cut it off.

“Brother, let’s quickly send our Taesung chemical executives to the Middle East. I have to return to glory.”

“It’s good because this secretary wasn’t enough.”

“Once the Middle East construction is completed and the balance is received, the safe of Taesung Construction will be thick.”

“You mean this? As usual, Taesung Construction has a lot of sponsors these days, so the budget is overflowing.”

President Sim looked at his father blankly.

“Did you save the country in your previous life?”

“yes?”

“There is such a thing. These are all Taeseong’s blessings, and Master Seongjun’s blessings. I will die of envy.”

“…?”

When the father tilted his head in the opposite way, President Sim said.

“Actually, as I came out of the chairman’s office today, I had a little talk about Secretary Kim and Master Jeong Hyuk.”

“About Jung Hyuk?”

“To be precise, it was about Master Jeong Hyuk’s early education.”

“Early education?”

“It is true that there was even talk of early management education. Any thoughts?”

The father was startled and shouted out loud.

“Jeonghyeok is only eight years old!”

President Sim looked at his father with mysterious eyes filled with all kinds of thoughts.

“That’s right. I’m curious about that too. How could he be only eight years old?”
