The 3th Generation of the Chaebol Wants to Live Quietly - Chapter 219



Only Noblemtl

#219.

What is absurd is that Manager Kim Myeong-jun actually found documents related to Secretary Oh Hye-jeong inside the vehicle and handed them over.

“… … .”

Director Lee Chang-myeong reflexively checked the various sexual harassment evidences that Choi Min-hyeok had presented. It was truly unbelievable. He was certain that he was very determined.

‘I never thought you’d be carrying around a photo. Wow, what kind of kid is this?’

I looked at Choi Min-hyuk again with tired eyes.

It’s obvious that what happened just now wasn’t planned.

It means that he was so determined to kill himself that he carried it around in his car even during normal times.

He had already gotten a taste of the heat(?) through this incident, so he didn’t get excited as openly as before. He didn’t get swayed by Choi Min-hyeok’s tricks either.

“Yes, this time I lost. You won. But you’d better be careful in the future. I will definitely get revenge on you.”

Minhyuk Choi also did not have any regrets toward Director Changmyung Lee solely because of Secretary Hyejung Oh. However, Minhyuk Choi did not forget that Osung Electronics was involved in the downfall of KM Group. He did not overtly pressure her, but he used a clever method.

One of the people who led that effort was Director Lee Chang-myeong.

‘You have to give something extra in return for what you receive.’

So, Choi Min-hyeok’s speech was not good.

“What’s that line? Doesn’t it sound like something a third-rate villain would say?”

“Fuck… … .”

Director Lee Chang-myeong also held back his swear words at Choi Min-hyeok’s sarcastic remarks. He was afraid that if he caused trouble, he would get into trouble again.

He stepped back from Director Choi Min-hyeok as Director Ahn Gook-ho gently grabbed his hand.

‘Bog, I will be buried.’

* * *

Director Lee Chang-myeong walked quickly toward the ETRI building where the satellite business division was located, while secretly vowing revenge on Choi Min-hyeok.

Only when I saw the line of people at the entrance did I smile.

‘Ah, that’s right. You can’t act recklessly towards me, who will become the real power behind Oseong Electronics.’

I was certain that there would be some major misunderstanding regarding Director Park Jae-ho’s work.

Because they came out to greet me at this rainy hour to solve that problem.

At this point, it’s better to compromise.

I thought so.

Manager Ahn Gook-ho, who is quick-witted, was also very nervous because of Choi Min-hyeok, but then carefully tried to flatter him.

“No matter what, it seems like ETRI also paid a lot of attention to the director.”

“I think they’ll find me a burden too.”

“Well, if we fall out of favor with the director, our investment in ETRI will be drastically reduced in the future, so that’s only natural.”

“No, we must take severe revenge on the guy who was involved in this incident. Was it Dr. Kim Moon-ho? He was determined to do something to our Oseong employee. That guy must be kicked out.”

“We will check and take action immediately. This time, we will deal with it decisively.”

Director Lee Chang-myeong, who outwardly boasts a lot, had a different mindset.

‘That’s good. If I just do this well, my father will acknowledge me.’

“Yes. That’s how much money our company, Oseong Electronics, invested in ETRI every year. That’s natural. Oh, that’s how it should be. I think the problem with Director Park will be easily solved.”

Director Lee Chang-myeong approached them with his shoulders tense like a victorious general. He extended his hand to shake Dr. Oh Hyeon-jong’s.

“Hello. Dr. Oh Hyeon-jong, there is no need for you to come out and wait for me. There may be misunderstandings while working. I am in the middle of the work with Director Park Jae-ho… .”

However, Dr. Oh Hyeon-jong only gave Director Lee Chang-myeong a quick nod and passed him by.

No, he suddenly ran and approached Choi Min-hyeok, who was slowly approaching him, and bowed at a ninety-degree angle.

“Director Choi, thank you for coming to this presentation in person.”

“… … .”

Director Lee Chang-myeong slowly withdrew his outstretched hand and clenched his teeth so hard that they almost broke.

And it was Director Choi Min-hyeok.

Furthermore, Director Choi Min-hyeok laughed and made a deliberate attempt to mock himself.

‘That kid.’

* * *

In front of the satellite business building, a total of 20 researchers, including Professors Lee Dong-ho and Song Han-seong, lined up and waited for Director Choi Min-hyeok to arrive.

They only exchanged light conversations with acquaintances as they entered. They did not give detailed information about the presentation that was to take place today.

Of course, Dr. Kim Moon-ho, who did not know the inside story, shouted at Team Leader Kim Seung-gu, who remained.

“I’ve also heard rumors about Director Choi Min-hyeok. No matter how much I try to understand, I can’t understand this situation. Is it really necessary to go this far?”

Team leader Kim Seung-gu hesitated for a moment as he thought about what would happen after this presentation. He was even more embarrassed because he was not used to this kind of hospitality.

He also had a timid personality and was not the type to show off in front of others.

My already uncomfortable feelings became even more uncomfortable.

“How can you say something like that? You say something like that even though you know the value of the research results of the new satellite broadcasting system!”

“But still, what is this? Isn’t everyone laughing at this?”

Those who had not actually entered the conference hall but were in the lobby looked at Dr. Kim Moon-ho with strange eyes and whispered.

This is because Dr. Kim Moon-ho usually treated researchers who received lobbying as idiots.

I could hear people laughing at Dr. Kim Moon-ho, saying that when he does it, it’s romance, but when someone else does it, it’s an affair.

Team leader Kim Seung-gu also sighed inwardly at the sight of Dr. Kim Moon-ho looking nervous.

“There is no reason for Team Leader Nana Oh Hyeon-jong to come out like this and act humble towards Director Choi Min-hyeok, so do you think that’s why it’s like this?”

“I know that the satellite business system we are working on is not at a commercial level. However, it is impossible to improve the level of perfection at this stage.”

“Dr. Kim, you think you can just show it works like before and then get the stamp of approval from the Ministry of Information and Communication officials, right?”

“That’s not what I’m saying. I’m saying that reality and ideals are different.”

“No, if you look at reality now, the problems are different from before. The government has also just been watching because of internal discord surrounding the policy of satellite broadcasting through comprehensive cable broadcasting and Mugunghwa Satellite.”

“That’s… … .”

Dr. Kim Moon-ho also noticed that the government’s attitude changed quickly because of what he did.

But the changes within the Ministry of Science and ICT were more severe than he had expected.

As the news of the new satellite broadcast leaked by Dr. Oh Hyeon-jong reached the Ministry of Information and Communication, a major change occurred within the government.

Even the Ministry of Information and Communication realized too late that this was a real money-maker.

What’s absurd is that this hastened the reorganization of the Ministry of Science and ICT.

The satellite business, which was previously divided into the Ministry of Post and Telecommunications, the Ministry of Public Information, and the Ministry of Information and Communication, has been integrated into one.

In the end, the information and communication work that had been managed by the Ministry of Post and Telecommunications and the Ministry of Public Information and the satellite work that had been managed separately by other ministries were all transferred to the Information and Communication Policy Office of the Ministry of Information and Communication.

“No, you still don’t know. Director Lee Won-han, who became the head of the newly reorganized Information and Communication Policy Office, also sent Team Leader Park Sung-hwan to this press conference today to understand the situation.”

“Are you saying that the reorganization of the Ministry of Information and Communication was caused by this incident?”

“okay.”

“But how do they know something that we don’t even know yet?”

“Of course they are out of their minds. The Ministry of Information and Communication has no experience in how to implement policies on this.”

“Then, as usual, you are studying other countries’ satellite policies and putting them together.”

“Yeah. Well, it’s not like civil servants have been doing that for a day or two.”

Team leader Kim Seung-gu, who had been grumbling, also felt embarrassed and kept his mouth shut when he remembered that he had also stolen Professor Song Han-seong’s research results.

Dr. Kim Moon-ho was not much different.

“But after this satellite system was verified, everything changed.”

Among them, the most representative one is that work has begun to quickly review the enactment of an integrated broadcasting law for satellite broadcasting and cable broadcasting.

But the situation wasn’t all that positive.

‘The problem is that in order to enact this bill, Director Choi Min-hyeok has to make a lot of concessions.’

If Director Choi Min-hyeok does not give in, things will become extremely difficult.

If we were not careful and missed the timing, the bill would have dragged on for a year or two.

Dr. Seung-gu Kim gave a brief explanation of the Ministry of Science and ICT’s thoughts on the integrated broadcasting law.

“The Integrated Broadcasting Act… … .”

Dr. Kim Moon-ho also frowned deeply. He also did not know whether the issue of enacting the bill was related. No, he just found it absurd.

“No, how did it turn out like that?”

“I didn’t know. I didn’t know that things would be completed this quickly.”

“her.”

“But you don’t need to know these details. Just focus on the research you like. Team Leader Oh or I will take care of the rest.”

“…sorry.”

“I guess you’re starting to think a little better now. If you successfully complete this research, you’ll become ETRI’s dark horse. Just think about that.”

“I don’t want to know the complicated circumstances either. I’m just worried that a company like Oh Sung Electronics might get involved and abuse its power.”

“But it is difficult to ignore the help of Oseong Electronics. The problem of next-generation switching systems cannot be left to LC Electronics or Daewoon Electronics alone.”

“… Isn’t LC information and communication enough?”

“LC Information and Communications is not much different from Oseong Electronics. It would be much better to let the two compete. The Ministry of Information and Communications has already verbally discussed it.”

“Is that so?”

“What remains is Director Choi Min-hyeok’s concession. Because Director Choi Min-hyeok is the one who will suffer in the process of compromising here and there.”

“okay.”

Dr. Kim Moon-ho also sighed with a frown on his face. If he had finished the Oculus project with ETRI’s pure technology, he would have been treated well.

As Minhyeok Choi approached, guided by Dr. Oh Hyeonjong, Team Leader Seunggu Kim also ran towards Minhyeok Choi in a hurry, but he saw Director Changmyeong Lee reaching out his hand, but he ignored him.

He went in front of Choi Min-hyuk and bowed his waist instead of his head and grabbed Choi Min-hyuk’s hand.

Team leader Kim Seung-gu was also a person who extremely hated being flattered.

It was strange to see such a person bowing his head to a 20-year-old youth with barely any blood on his head.

Even ETRI researchers who knew well the tendencies of Team Leaders Seung-gu Kim and Hyeon-jong Oh were left with their mouths wide open in shock.

“… … .”

Dr. Kim Moon-ho followed the two men and stared blankly at the scene. If Director Park Jae-ho stepped down, one of the two men would take over as head of the satellite business division, but he was too humble towards his young friend.

‘… This is incredible. I don’t think they even did that to the Minister of Information and Communications.’

It was inevitable.

As the value of the Oculus project began to shine, the two had to maintain a good relationship with Director Choi Min-hyeok at all costs.

There were so many things I wanted to ask you to do in the future.

No, it was also because of the Oculus project that it was easy to discipline Director Park Jae-ho.

Reporter Baek Yong-gu from the Han-Young Daily, who attended the event to cover the presentation, was accompanied by reporter Choi Gwang-su. He too was unable to come to his senses for a moment when he saw the researcher, whose nose was as high as the sky, bowing down to Choi Min-hyeok with determination.

“I didn’t see things wrong, did I?”

“I saw it too.”

“Wow, I can’t believe it. I knew that Director Choi was no ordinary person, but I never imagined it would be this bad.”

“There must be a reason. That’s the scoop. That’s probably why they called us here.”

“Let’s go and talk right now.”

“Oh, no.”

Reporter Pyong Yoo quickly ran over to Choi Min-hyeok and greeted him.

“How have you been, sir?”

Minhyuk Choi opened his mouth as if it was a coincidence that reporter Pyongyong Gu appeared here.

“Oh, you’re reporter Beom. What brings you here?”

“I came here to cover ETRI.”

“I see. Our reporter Beom seems to have changed a lot.”

“Hahaha, it’s all thanks to you, sir. Please take care of me in the future.”
