The 3th Generation of the Chaebol Wants to Live Quietly - Chapter 1126



Only Noblemtl

1126.

“…okay.”

Reporter Pyong Yok-gu closed his mouth with a pale face.

Because he was definitely included in this restructuring.

So I said it just in case.

“…Are you planning to back out like this?”

“I’m summoned to the Central District Prosecutors’ Office again next week. Actually, I wanted to step down before then, but I held out because there were people who opposed me. That’s reaching its limit now. If I’m not careful, I could be arrested.”

“Well, that’s something you don’t know.”

Editor-in-Chief Choi Kyung-jin stared blankly at reporter Baek Yong-gu.

“…It’s not easy to endure Vice President Lee Dong-soo clinging to me.”

“Editor!!”

“Don’t yell. Honestly, I didn’t know that Director Choi Min-hyeok had this much power. I thought he was just a rich investor, but I wasn’t.”

Editor-in-Chief Choi Kyung-jin had a bitter expression. He also thought that Director Choi Min-hyeok would use money to bully others. If the other party had acted like this, they could have used public opinion to witch-hunt Director Choi Min-hyeok.

Just like in the Middle Ages.

The bullying of people with a lot of money.

This was the media outlet that opposed it.

The picture wasn’t bad.

But Director Choi Min-hyeok didn’t do that.

Rather, he used his overwhelming skills to turn public opinion in his favor.

He even approached government officials and tried to persuade them.

Even the Central District Prosecutors’ Office was used in the next order.

The Han-Young Daily continued to manipulate public opinion by leaking evidence of its actions to the public.

In this way, the Han-Young Daily could not use the cheat key of freedom of the press guaranteed by the Constitution.

He didn’t even come forward.

The work was carried out with CEO Choi Du-jin at the forefront.

There was no way this could be overcome.

Editor-in-Chief Choi Kyung-jin left the office carrying a box containing his personal belongings.

The Han-Young Ilbo reporters who were looking at him all looked at him with eyes full of resentment.

As restructuring gets underway, more than half of these will be split up.

[Open, Editor-in-Chief!]

Editor-in-chief Choi Kyung-jin ignored what reporter Baek Yong-gu was saying and walked away in silence.

He glanced at the Han-Young Ilbo office for a moment and sighed.

But he stopped walking when he saw Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo in the building’s parking lot.

Then I looked at Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo for a moment.

There was a lot to say.

But soon he shook his head.

Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo also let out a sigh when he learned that Editor-in-Chief Choi Kyung-jin had been fired. He took a short break to think about why he had been fired, and then belatedly went to the Han-Young Daily.

‘…Director Choi Min-hyeok.’

“Editor-in-chief Choi Kyung-jin…”

Director Choi Min-hyeok finally clicked his tongue at the actions of Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo.

He thought that Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo would not give up.

Still, I never thought I would meet Editor-in-Chief Choi Kyung-jin.

“Still, that’s fortunate. We were able to cut Editor-in-Chief Choi Kyung-jin without delay.”

“…yes.”

Team leader Jo Seong-don looked quite surprised.

I didn’t know that Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo hadn’t given up yet.

Director Choi Min-hyeok hesitated for a moment and then finally stood up.

“…Now that I think about it, it’s actually a good thing. Because I can make the most of Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo.”

“yes?”

He left the office without giving a detailed explanation. Team Leader Jo Seong-don had no choice but to follow him hurriedly. Director Choi Min-hyeok went to an unexpected place.

“Nice to see you again.”

President Choi Doo-jin was startled by the sudden appearance of Director Choi Min-hyeok, who had barged in while he was meeting with many people about the Han-Young Daily’s stocks.

“It’s not that big of a deal.”

Team leader Jo Seong-don casually handed over information related to Senior Manager Kim Hyeon-woo.

President Choi Du-jin looked at the report with a puzzled look, and frowned when he saw that the person it mentioned was ‘Senior Manager Kim Hyeon-woo.’

But after looking over the end of the report, he remained silent for a while.

I couldn’t understand why Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo had come to see Editor-in-Chief Choi Gyeong-jin.

‘no way?’

Director Choi Min-hyeok looked at President Choi Du-jin with curious eyes.

“The work at Oh Sung Electronics has become a bit inconvenient. However, since it is the job of Planning Director Kwon Tae-seong, there is nothing I can do about it. I cannot tell Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo to stay at Oh Sung Electronics. However, the fact that Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo met with Editor-in-Chief Choi Kyung-jin is a different matter.”

“But wasn’t it just something that passed by in a flash?”

“That may be the case. But it may not be. But what should I do if Senior Vice President Kim Hyun-woo continues to attack me?”

President Choi Du-jin closed his eyes tightly. He thought for a moment. This wasn’t something that could be resolved just by warning him. Now he seemed to understand why Director Choi Min-hyeok was so persistent in nagging Senior Vice President Kim Hyun-woo.

‘That’s true, that guy.’

I didn’t know how to give up

I mean, in a bad way.

“…Do as you wish.”

“I won’t forget those words. Don’t go to see my grandfather and appeal to his mercy for no reason. This isn’t something that can be overlooked. Of course, I’m talking about when Chief Vice President Kim Hyun-woo took action himself.”

“…Let me tell you a story.”

“You should do that.”

Director Choi Min-hyeok had a serious expression on the outside, but his feelings were a bit different.

‘I needed a way to pressure President Choi Du-jin anyway, so this might be a good thing. I already have a lot of enemies, so it’s easier to manage enemies that are visible.’

Director Choi Min-hyeok suddenly remembered the saying, “Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.”

When Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo saw that the Han-Young Ilbo had been destroyed, he called Vice President Choi Moon-kyung.

But he didn’t answer the phone.

He was about to go see Vice President Choi Moon-kyung, but ended up laughing bitterly.

Because he realized that he was avoiding him.

The last place that Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo chose was the Korean branch of Salomon Brothers.

The person I met there was director Dennis Salomon.

After returning to Korea, he did not return to Thailand and instead served as the Korean branch manager while responding to Director Choi Min-hyeok.

“It’s been a while.”

“…Did I come to the wrong place?”

Director Dennis Salomon knew Senior Vice President Kim Hyun-woo.

I just didn’t know it very well.

Still, he knew well what kind of personality Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo had.

Senior Vice President Kim Hyun-woo realized that even Salomon Brothers was shunning him with his current attitude. He thought of President Choi Du-jin again. He thought that he was the only one who listened to his story because he was his father.

But he couldn’t give up easily.

Luckily, Director James Lerner found Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo.

The look in his eyes changed.

He knew Senior Vice President Kim Hyun-woo better than Director Dennis Salomon.

Even though he was not interested in Director Derek Morgan, who accompanied him, or in Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo.

“who is this?”

Director James Lerner briefly described Senior Vice President Kim Hyun-woo’s profile.

Director Derek Morgan listened silently, stroking his chin.

He was a truly unexpected person.

‘President Choi Du-jin’s illegitimate child……’

Then the story was a little different.

Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo looked at the three people and then suddenly answered.

“I know Director Choi Min-hyeok well.”

Director Derek Morgan looked puzzled. He too was shocked by the recent collapse of the Han-Young Ilbo and was busy trying to cut off the tail just in case.

During that time, I also received a report on what Director Choi Min-hyeok did.

Director James Lerner stepped forward.

“…What do you want?”

Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo spoke while carefully observing the situation.

“No one knows Director Choi Min-hyeok better than I do. And I am also very interested in investments. I know a lot about Belin investments.”

Director Dennis Salomon immediately stepped in.

“You don’t fit in with us. Furthermore, your careers are different. Our company…….”

Again, Director James Lerner raised his hand to stop him. He whispered to Director Derek Morgan about Senior Vice President Kim Hyun-woo.

What I have conveyed this time is not simply the profile of Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo, but also how to utilize him.

I’m talking about KM Electronics, Oseong Electronics, and CEO Choi Du-jin.

Director Derek Morgan thought long and hard about it and then put the matter on hold for the time being.

“It’s a bit awkward to be talking about this all of a sudden. Come back the day after tomorrow.”

“…All right.”

Director Choi Min-hyeok was curious about Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo’s movements, so he looked into this information as much as possible.

In his view, Senior Vice President Kim Hyun-woo was a ticking time bomb. He didn’t want to complicate things by making a minor mistake.

“You went to see Director Derek Morgan?”

“To be exact, I think I went to the Salomon Brothers Korea branch.”

“This is it.”

Director Choi Min-hyeok was dumbfounded. He could not have imagined that he would visit an investment company instead of a manufacturing company. But he thought it was worth it.

‘The work at Oseong Electronics must have already gone to another company’s HR department.’

Even mid-sized companies were no exception.

What Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo did at Oseong Electronics was possible because of the special nature of Director Choi Min-hyeok.

But other companies were a completely different story.

If he didn’t want to support himself, there was no way he could accept Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo.

It would be different if Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo were running his own business.

It was a different story with Salomon Brothers.

When the KM group was workout due to past life memories, the person who sided with the Salomon Brothers and acted as a leech was Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo.

At that time, Director Choi Min-hyeok regretted not sending Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo to prison, regardless of the means and methods.

But at that time, there was nothing I could do.

Because I took full advantage of CEO Choi Du-jin.

He finally looked at Manager Kim Myeong-jun.

“The picture is better than I thought.”

“yes?”

“You can tell just by looking at President Choi Du-jin, but he can confidently supervise Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo. That means it’s easy to put pressure on President Choi Du-jin as well.”

“That’s true, though.”

“Moreover, the justification is clear. Assign more people to Senior Vice President Kim Hyun-woo. Also look into the Salomon Brothers Korean branch. Report immediately if anything seems even slightly strange.”

The following was said to Team Leader Jo Seong-don.

“Please take a close look at the Salomon Brothers Korea branch and the US headquarters. If necessary, you can even bring in experts to look into the cash flow.”

“…All right.”

“As you both know, we can now confidently monitor Salomon Brothers. Since we have Senior Vice President Kim Hyun-woo as our justification. And we can also immediately check for any unusual changes. It’s not necessarily a bad thing. After all, Salomon Brothers, who is behind Vice President Choi Moon-kyung, is now our target.”

Team leader Jo Seong-don and manager Kim Myeong-jun both ultimately followed Choi Min-hyeok’s instructions.

They stuck out their tongues when they saw the movements of Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo.

‘Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo is great, but Director Choi Min-hyeok is also really terrible.’

***

Director Derek Morgan did not handle Senior Vice President Kim Hyun-woo’s work so easily.

Naturally, director Dennis Salomon stepped in again.

“What on earth are you talking about? That person used to work at KM Electronics and Oseong Electronics. Aside from that, he was in a completely different job from the investment company. Furthermore, considering what he did at Oseong Electronics, he is an unbelievable person!”

The reason Director Dennis Salomon came out so strongly is because he knew what Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo did at Oh Sung Electronics.

He would sell the company to satisfy his own desires.

That’s why I was pointing that out.

But Director Derek Morgan had a different idea. He was more concerned about that. There was a lot to be said for just the short story that Director James Lerner told.

He honestly felt creepy when he saw Director Choi Min-hyeok. Now he didn’t even want to deal with him.

But in the current situation, whether I liked it or not, I had to deal with Director Choi Min-hyeok.

Since he doesn’t want to do it himself, he has to send a proxy. If it was Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo who had a grudge against Director Choi Min-hyeok, he would be able to trust him as a proxy.

In fact, he confirmed this fact to Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo, who came back again.

“Do you want revenge on Director Choi Min-hyeok?”

Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo spoke with eerie eyes.

“My wish is to tear Director Choi Min-hyeok to pieces!”
