Son of a Conglomerate at the Highest Level - Son of a Conglomerate at the Highest Level chapter 117

＜ Gifts and bribes are distinctly different ＞

“How are you thinking about this? Sometimes you can’t believe that this guy is really eight years old?”

Chairman Cha rubbed his eyes and read it again.

I had no choice but to do that even though I knew for sure that it was the same when I watched it again.

“It’s a way to attract the chief of the central government and the army security commander to our side. What is it?”

Chairman Cha wandered around the chairman’s office, carefully organizing his thoughts.

“Amman, I don’t know if I rolled my head. If this was a money-making business, I would have already thought of dozens of ways to attack. Tsk.”

Chairman Cha wrinkled his brow.

There are skills in flattery, there are times when it comes to bribery, and there are tricks to grilling and boiling.

Although Chairman Cha was a born merchant, he was not a born politician.

The evaluation of the Chief of Security at the Blue House was not very different either.

-Don’t be foolishly obsessed with business, but you also need to use the solicitation properly.

-It’s technology development, facility investment, and take the money pouring in, and grease it evenly from top to bottom. Taeseong can only grow that far because he pushes so hard.

-What do you mean His Excellency didn’t throw Taeseong away even though you acted so stiff? It means that His Excellency is taking good care of him.

-It’s not enough just to be good at business. Just do it like today. Then His Excellency will also look at you pretty.

A sound of pain came out of Chairman Cha’s mouth.

“Certainly, the head rolling this way means that Jeong-hyeok is one level above me.”

Chairman Cha quietly put down the crumpled note.

“Secretary Kim, do you think I’m blocking Jung Hyuk’s business because of my stubbornness?”

“It can’t be. But I can understand Master Jeong Hyuk’s position.”

“Of course it is. Why don’t I know that feeling? It must have sounded the same as buying a toy and telling me not to play with it.”

Chairman Cha let out a small sigh.

“It was a decision I made for Jeonghyeok and for Taeseong.”

“Depending on the acquisition of this affiliate, the stake and influence will greatly change. Therefore, it is unavoidable that the battle for Taesung’s management rights will begin in earnest.”

“know. We don’t have only one son like Woo-gwang, and we don’t treat our daughters as outsiders.”

That was what Chairman Cha was concerned about.

“You can’t put your eight-year-old grandson on the front lines of the battlefield, where he’s sure to become a fodder for arrows even if he fights.”

Originally, war is based on destroying the weakest part first.

“I have to buy time until Sung-Jun is a bit more mature and Jeong-Hyeok is a bit older.”

“Did you ask for management rights without knowing that?”

Secretary Kim hinted at the employment contract.

“President Shim and executives of Taesung Construction stand by Master Jeong Hyuk. Trust me and leave it to me.”

“Mmm.”

“Anyway, as promised, if you hand over all of the stakes in the acquired affiliates, Master Jeong Hyuk can hold a shareholders’ meeting and change the management right. Master Jeong Hyuk doesn’t know that?”

Secretary Kim was unusually strong.

“Nevertheless, the fact that I sent you this note must mean that I don’t want to get along with the President.”

“know. why don’t i know that That’s why it’s so noisy inside.”

Chairman Cha sighed deeply.

“Woogwang Oil.”

“Isn’t Wookwang Refining Oil an affiliate the big boy has his eye on?”

“If it wasn’t for the trick Jung Hyuk told me, I wouldn’t have received the promise that the head of the Blue House bodyguard would hand over Woo-gwang’s affiliates to Taeseong in the first place! The ball was set by Jeonghyeok, but why does Daejun put it in his mouth?”

After all, it was all thanks to the advice of this eight-year-old grandson that the head of the Blue House bodyguard was so happy in the first place.

Chairman Cha stopped pacing around and sat down in his chair.

“Since he was a man of merit, Jeong-hyeok would be happy if you brought him Wookwang essential oil. I’m going to do my job as a grandfather only until that point.”

Chairman Cha just cut it.

“I won’t stop a more competent guy from taking a chance and coming up. But I don’t want to see my little boy get bloody in an adult fight!”

“Chairman, before starting work, how about having a conversation with Master Jeong Hyuk?”

“Are you telling me to hold my grandson and ask him to understand my position?”

“President.”

“It’s work time! finish the company part. later!”

Chairman Cha unfolded the approval documents piled up on his desk.

There were a lot of proposals for the acquisition of Wookwang affiliates, written by executives from each affiliate.

“Even if I just want to consider taking over Wookwang’s affiliates, it’s been a while! Twelve bodies are not enough!”

“So, how about taking a look at this?”

Secretary Kim put the thick stack of papers he was carrying on his desk.

It was a document with numbers from 1 to 41 written on the outside.

“This was written when Master Jeong Hyuk attended the executive meeting of all affiliates of the Taesung Group last time.”

“her······!”

“You seem to have reviewed Wookwang affiliates and written down the priorities for mergers and acquisitions.”

“what?”

“As you can see, he classified them as long-term and short-term investments, and briefly described the reason.”

“I am full of spirits.”

He wanted to attend the executive meeting diligently with twinkling eyes.

Chairman Cha couldn’t help but laugh.

“You mean he surprises me in so many ways?”

“I recommend that you review focusing on the parts marked with an asterisk.”

* * *

“This is Won. don’t be stupid ha ha ha!”

Chairman Cha read the notes of his eight-year-old grandson with his eyes shining.

There were a few parts that stood out in particular.

“The evaluations of Wookwang Motor, Wookwang Heavy Equipment, and Wookwang Oil Refinery are particularly negative. But it is very plausible.”

Chairman Cha tried to pull down the corners of his lips that kept twitching.

“Are you saying that a young person knows how to run a business?”

“So that’s what I’m saying. If it is an affiliate to give to Master Jeonghyeok, I think the first step would be to ask what kind of blueprint he is drawing.”

Jeonghyeok drew three X marks on the Wookwang Refining Oil document.

“Hmm, Jeong-hyeok and I had a different opinion. President Sim and I are looking very positively toward the acquisition of Wookwang Refinery. Why did this guy draw it from the very beginning, saying it couldn’t be done?”

Chairman Cha looked through the approval documents and found ＜Wookwang Oil Refinery Acquisition Proposal in the event of an oil shock＞.

“To build an oil company on bare land, I wonder if I can just pour money into it. If you can acquire it at a low price, you must rush at it unconditionally.”

“Concerning that, Master Jeong Hyuk has a separate message.”

Secretary Kim held out a note with the number ‘2’ written on the outside.

＜If an oil crisis occurs, the price of crude oil will soar, but the government will force a freeze or minimal increase in domestic oil prices. So, who should bear all the damage?＞

“Well, the oil companies will have to take care of it.”

Chairman Cha muttered involuntarily.

“Chairman, for the same reason, during the last oil crisis, oil refineries were unable to cope with financial difficulties and stumbled greatly.”

“Hmm.”

Chairman Cha even read the next line.

＜Who do you think will run first when Wookwang Oil is put on the market?＞

“Samhwang essential oil. Because of its small size, it is often behind in competition with Wookwang Oil.”

＜Leave Wookwang Refinery to Samhwang. If an oil crisis breaks out, it seems that not only Korea Oil Corporation, but also Wookwang Refinery and Samhwang Oil can be picked up at the price of sh*t.＞

“…!”

Chairman Cha felt like lightning flashed in his head.

It was different from when I was thinking about how to entice the chief of the central government and the army security commander.

The abacus egg went back and forth in my head, and dozens of ways to attack it came to mind.

Chairman Cha hit his knee.

“Even if it wasn’t for the oil crisis, we would have fought a fierce battle with Samhwang Oil over Wookwang Refinery!”

If you are an oil company, the size of your assets should be a little bigger.

Taeseong was probably not the only one whose eyes widened at this rare opportunity.

“I am not unaware that Samhwang Refining Oil has a close relationship with the head of the central government and the army security commander. That’s why I was worried the whole time that Taeseong was going to jump into a mud fight!”

Chairman Cha held onto the crumpled note ‘1’ and laughed out loud.

“If our Taeseong could entice even the chief of the central government and the army security commander, things would be so much easier… wait! Even then, did you throw away the Woogwang Oil? why not? Why? For what?”

Without a word, Secretary Kim held out a note with ‘3’ written on it.

Chairman Cha snatched away the note like an eagle snatching its prey.

＜Don’t get caught up in the mud fight, let’s aim for something better.＞

“So what is it?”

Chairman Cha turned the note over and checked the back.

＜If you are curious about the management rights!＞

It’s a management right to the end!

I can’t stop it anyway!

“Yes, if there is something you want, you have to push it to this extent to be able to call it Taeseong’s lineage! Ha ha ha ha ha!”

The corners of Chairman Cha’s lips caught in his ears.

“I can’t! I can’t stand this!”

Chairman Cha jumped up and hurriedly grabbed his coat from the hanger.

“Secretary Kim, what was your schedule this morning?”

“Chairman, the announcement of new products by Taesung Electronics and the investment briefing session for the first half of Taesung Mid-term are scheduled in the morning.”

“Should I put off my time with Jung Hyuk just to see and hear that? Cancel everything!”

“yes.”

“For Taesung’s future, we have to deal with the most important thing first! What could be more important than this right now? Secretary Kim, what are you doing? Let’s go!”

Secretary Kim said yes and sorted out the messy papers.

In the meantime, Chairman Cha, who had an impatient temper, stormed out of the chairman’s office.

But Secretary Kim was never in a hurry.

Tak tok tok.

In a relaxed, elegant and tidy manner, he picked up the payment documents that Chairman Cha had scattered and piled them up.

The creases of toilet paper on beauty tissues were straightened out, and the chair that had rolled up to the window was also neatly placed.

I also picked up the papers that Chairman Cha had thrown away and the note from Jung Hyuk and put them in my briefcase.

Udang-tang-tang!

“Secretary Kim!”

Chairman Cha, who ran out, ran into the road panting.

“A note from Jung Hyuk! I need to start with the materials of the executive meeting where I wrote down the priorities of mergers and acquisitions!”

“Yes, here. as you see.”

Secretary Kim lifted the briefcase and showed it.

“let’s go! I sent Chief Goh down first to start the car!”

“yes. Let’s go.”

Chairman Cha ran to the road.

Secretary Kim strode behind him.

Secretary Kim gestured as she walked without disturbing a single strand of hair or folding a wrinkle in her suit.

Immediately, a secretary from the secretariat came running and prepared a memo.

“Postponing the Taesung Electronics new product presentation to the same time tomorrow morning.”

“yes.”

“Taesung Heavy Industries Investment Briefing Meeting the day after tomorrow at 2pm.”

“All right.”

“Cancel your lunch appointment. I think you will come to eat in Hannam-dong.”

“I will send you a bouquet of flowers along with a phone call for understanding.”

“You’ll have to take care of the preparations for the afternoon meeting.”

“yes. I will set it in advance.”

In the meantime, Chairman Cha tapped the down button in front of the elevator five or six times a second.

Run, run, run!

I couldn’t stand the elevator that went down to the parking lot on the 2nd basement floor and went up to the 32nd floor where the chairman’s office was located.

Ding!

The elevator door opened and Secretary Kim arrived at the elevator exactly at the same time.

Tat tat tat tat!

As soon as Chairman Cha got on the elevator, he pressed the 2nd basement floor and the close button five or six times per second.

In the meantime, Secretary Kim took out a portable suit duster from the inside pocket of his suit and wiped Chairman Cha’s suit.From noble mtl dot com

Next, he took out a retractable comb and combed Chairman Cha’s hair, which was disheveled from running.

Ding!

The time the elevator arrived at the parking lot on the second basement level coincided exactly when Secretary Kim put the hairbrush into the inside pocket of his suit.

As soon as the elevator door opened, Chairman Cha shouted loudly as bullets ricocheted.

“Chief Ko, let’s go!”

It was before I even got into the car.

When Chairman Cha looked around for a parked car, Secretary Kim was already waiting with the back door open.

“Chairman, this way.”

“Chief Ko, this is Hannam-dong! let’s go!”

This was before I even got into the car.

* * *

Beep beep beep beep beep!

Grandpa, who broke into our house from the morning wind, drank honey water in one shot without breathing.

“Take it, management rights!”

The memorandum that grandfather had written in advance was banged down on the desk.

Of course, the golden light flashed dazzlingly.

“How about persuading the family and Taesung Group executives?”

“Leave it to me. Don’t you think Grandpa can’t solve that much?”

It sounded like he had made up his mind.

“However, for safety reasons, standing in front of you is not permitted. Bypass your investment company and exercise management control.”

“Thank you, Grandpa.”

“You shouldn’t use this as an excuse to start a fight with your uncle or aunt. Can you promise me?”

Grandpa banged a note with a ‘1’ on the outside on my desk.

“So what should I do?”

Life is originally a give and take!

If there is something coming, there must also be something going.

I also handed out the documents I had prepared in advance.

“Isn’t this the bribe ledger of Wookwang Construction?

One was a mixture of gold and red, and the other was a mixture of gold and black.

“Didn’t we agree to discard the items belonging to the Chief of Central Government and the Army Security Command?”

“No.”

I waved my index finger from side to side.

“That was the decision not to hand over the hilt of the purge to the Chief of Security and Chief of Staff at the Blue House. You could say this is a gift to them.”

“gift? Isn’t that a bribe?”

A gift and a bribe are distinctly different.
