Success Story of a Master Level Mercenary Chaebol - Success Story of a Master Level Mercenary Chaebol 188

188: Weave and see (5)

As Linda entered the central hallway, the flash went off. Even in the heat of such aggressive coverage, she skillfully walked on the carpet like a model.

She wore blonde hair that shined brighter in the light, and wore a black dress under an ivory suit with accentuated shoulders. Her dignified and sophisticated outfits made her accessories stand out even more.

“Only with that. Tiffany’s latest masterpiece!”

“Is the price undecided?”

“It’s the sound of what you call a price. tup!”

She walked to the host’s seat, accompanied by Steve and Brian. The reporters did not rest while capturing such a dignified appearance on camera.

Ahh! Tock tock!

As soon as Linda and her party sat down gracefully, the hall became quiet in an instant. Hwaryeong took the opportunity to stand in front of the podium.

“Nice to meet you. This is Cha Hwa-ryeong, the CEO of Daeyoung Hotel.”

Another flash fires as she introduces into the microphone. Hwaryeong was also famous on social media, but he seldom showed up at official events like this.

“As well as rumors. She is by far the top chaebol woman I have ever seen. I hope this article will get some views.”

“But what is that, doesn’t it look similar to the earrings Linda wore?”

“See if it’s the same Tiffany. There are a lot of chaebol women, but isn’t there any such thing?”

“is it? If you put this together well, it looks like a great article… ‘A hidden relationship between the Korean-American chaebol?’ What is something like this… Huh!”

“Man, so you are listening to the giraffe. Because they write very novels as speculative articles.”

“What are you talking about? And anyway, the public doesn’t even care about the truth. Who are you talking about while looking for and reading what people like? Giggles!”

“Yeah, let’s clean the bottom and increase the number of views. Otherwise, someone will pay for the meal… ”

As the reporters roared, the hall became noisy. However, Hwaryeong continued the press conference steadfastly.

“This has led to the creation of an international consortium that will be responsible for all rights, including the reconstruction and operation of the Pharaoh Hotel. The joint venture between G Company, a global investment company, and Daeyoung Group and Kangho Group, the leading domestic companies, has created a new alliance that will further expand the business and minimize risks. Introducing Linda Grace-sama, who will be the CEO!”

Hwaryeong mobilized all kinds of rhetoric to flutter about the consortium. He even introduced Linda as its representative.

There was no reporter here who didn’t know what happened to the pharaoh. However, not one of them published that filthy truth as an article.

Under such circumstances, an international coalition was suddenly born. There was even a large-scale representative of a foreign nationality who showed up, so there was no way he was unaware that something had happened.

“Nice to meet you. This is Linda Grace, who will lead the consortium.”

This time, the flash flickered non-stop. However, it was a completely different attitude from just reporting a pretty woman as gossip.

The business that was supposed to quietly prevent the corruption in the political and business worlds was suddenly transformed into an international investment business.

Except for reporters from the entertainment department, questions from reporters trying to catch a scoop filled the hall. The conference room heated up with the enthusiasm of the reporters who had no manners.

And at that moment, Cheol-woo, who arrived late, entered the conference room. The journalists, who were preoccupied with Linda, did not notice his appearance.

“What’s so messy?”

I couldn’t see the front at all because of the guys holding the camera overhead or pressing the shutter on the ladder. I was able to find Linda and Hwaryeong only after I barely used my big stature.

Hwaryeong also recognized Cheolwoo. She gestured her hand towards the back passage in her hall.

“Do I have to sit here too?”

“Yeah, since Minseok isn’t there, you should sit as the head of Kangho’s group too. Don’t think about it, sit down!”

Returning to the back of the hall, he grumbled as he sat in the back seat of Hwaryeong. As a mercenary, he extremely hated being photographed.

Exposing information on social media or in public spaces was just like asking me to kill you. There were several people who went to the goal because of the revengeful and chasing traces.

Whenever possible, I wanted to avoid using excuses. But at that moment, Linda looking back and her eyes met.

She had a confident expression on her face, but Cheol-woo noticed that she was trembling. It was her first experience in front of so many foreign reporters.

‘It’s okay, Linda! I’ll sit behind you.’

‘thanks. self!’

Cheol-woo calmed her down with his eyes. As soon as she read her eyes, she smiled with a calm expression.

The appearance of Cheol-woo in a suit was very reliable. Like her medieval knight in her armor, it seemed to save her from all her dangers.

“Uh, what else is that guy?”

“Did you see that expression, it must have something to do with the two of you?”

“Hey, there’s a lot of stuff going on today.”

“It’s not a joke, it’s the material of your novel.”

“How about anyone? If it gets a lot of views, it’s great. is not it? Huh!”

Like those who make a living with their eyes, I read the expression of that brief moment. Then, with a hyena-like expression, he waited for his prey to arrive.

“Sheesh! Very honey dripping.”

“Why would you give me a spoon too?”

“I’m going to decline, so take good care of your facial expressions. Those in front of me are not humans, but hyena-like strains.”

“Damn, I’m just chewing meat on the island…”

“Who made this happen? Did you go out of business and try to play by yourself?”

“I only believed in you! Why not?”

“huh! That trust will be returned. You too should work like me.”

Steve and Brian looked forward with smiles, giving and receiving like ventriloquism. Meanwhile Linda finished her given speech.

She returned to her seat with sweat forming on her forehead. In the meantime, she smiled brightly at Cheol-woo.

Hwaryeong, who saw that, walked out to the podium with a thin expression on her face. It was a battle of what makes such a playboy look so pretty.

“Okay, next is the announcement from the person in charge of the newly expanded casino division.”

“Wait. Could you please tell me who the man who entered a while ago is?”

“…that, that…?”

Hwaryeong was speechless at the random reporter’s question. Her question, which she didn’t want, suddenly popped up.

She, who had always had a relaxed attitude, stumbled as if she had been stabbed. Tens of thousands of bad cases were flying through her head.

Tuk Tuk Tuk! widely!

“My name is Cheol-Woo Jang, who attended as acting president of Kangho Construction. President Kang Min-seok was unable to attend at work, so he only attended as a proxy.”

Cheol-woo, who had not seen it, hurriedly approached and grabbed the microphone. Then he secretly took her hand under the podium.

When she felt Cheol-woo’s touch, she quickly regained her composure. It was when Cheol-woo, who saw her figure, was relieved and was about to return to her place.

“If you are qualified as the president’s representative, what would your rank be?”

From a while ago, a guy kept asking a question like he was arguing. Thinking to himself, ‘Catch that bastard and take him to the island?’

“I am the manager of Kangho Construction.”

“Then how old are you…?”

“What does that have to do with this position? I just came here as a member of the Kangho group. It’s a shame that the reporter’s excessive interest is burdensome. I’m a bit shy, so I respectfully ask for your understanding.”

Cheol-woo answered the question in a polite yet sullen tone. The moment I thought it would end like that, another reporter’s question came to me.

“I asked because you looked very young. No matter how you look at it, he looks like he’s in his early 20s, but a manager at that age seems to have a story.”

‘That bastard is really…, he’s got a lot of shit sticking out of his stomach. Warrior, take a look at that bastard. You have to catch me and cut down on that guy’s liver.’

[J Ilbo’s Park Eun-mo. It is famous for mainly writing stories about chaebol families and articles about solicitation.]

‘Baby, I thought so. It just looks like a mouse from the beginning.’

He was mainly a guy who wrote articles that sniper targets on orders from other guys. This time, it smelled like that.

‘You bastard, you’re so caught up!’

While he was grinding his teeth inside, his expression was dull. Then, to soothe her embarrassed Hwaryeong, she blocked her microphone with her hand, whispered to her, and then went back to her seat.

“Ahh! Due to time constraints, we will only answer business-related questions from now on. Next, I would like to introduce Steve Wilson, who will oversee the casino.”

🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Steve, who was sitting in his seat, got up without expression and stood on the podium. The old man could not have known this atmosphere.

Hwaryeong, who passed the reporter’s question as Cheol-woo’s advice, breathed a sigh of relief. Then he sent his eyes of thanks to Cheol-woo.

“I won’t talk much. I’m sure the reporters here are well aware of the fundamental problems of this project. Therefore, our G Company, which owns a 50% stake in the consortium, demands a strong debt reduction and a long-term extension of the debt repayment period from Pharaoh Hotel creditors. We will temporarily suspend construction plans for the Pharaoh Hotel until an appropriate mutual agreement is reached. We urge creditors to take a reasonable response.”

Steve exploded a bombshell as if he was determined. It was this issue that he strongly appealed to Cheol-woo.

There were various kinds of money involved, so it was necessary to go out with a boat first. To avoid political pressure to follow, the consortium’s 50% stake was placed in front of Linda.

Politicians who work hard at home are just stupid abroad. Besides, Linda, who has the current president of the United States as a godfather…

It will be fun to see what kind of big guy will rush. Steve winked at Cheol-woo as he returned to his seat.

It was an expression of his own revenge for having dared to annoy his boss. Brian saw that and made a jealous expression.

‘That’s what I should have done.’ Steve’s shoulders were raised high at that sight.

“Mr. Steve, is this an arrangement with the creditors in advance?”

“If G Company owns a 50% stake in the consortium, can this be regarded as a foreign company’s entry into the Korean market? Please provide a detailed answer on this.”

When Steve’s bomb exploded, the reporters from the Ministry of Economy moved faster. I had to write this scoop up quickly, and at the same time find out more details.

However, Hwaryeong came out with good timing and announced that the interview was over. Then, he leisurely exited through the back door of the conference room.

“This damn thing. I got a very big shot from him. haha!”

“What did Chairman Kang promise?”

Cheol-woo did not know, but the press conference was being broadcast in real time through cable TV specializing in economics. Thanks to him, his face got on the air for the first time.

Chairman Kang and Chairman Cha were sitting in a certain place watching the broadcast. Then, it was absurd to know that he was caught in a trap that Cheol-woo had dug.

“Instead of taking on this job, he made some conditions. Among them, I had the right to involve other companies if necessary. I was thinking of merging a small company, but I’m sure it will attract G Company. After all, he’s like a goblin. haha!”

“By the way, the foreign company owns 50%, right? It looks like we’re the only ones who get called into politics.”

Chairman Cha, who roughly grasped the situation, also made an expression of surprise. Neither of them expected that such a simple solution to a complex problem with the influence of the political and business world.

“Well, it’s a hand we threw away because it was too heavy anyway. No matter how he eats, it’s enough if we put our backs on the table and keep an eye on it. Let’s go on a business trip abroad for the time being. If you don’t want to go around listening to people in politics.”

“Cheol-Woo Jang…. He’s a real thing. haha!”

Cha’s eyes filled with greed. Chairman Kang couldn’t miss that.
