The Highest Level Son of a Chaebol Family - Chapter 373
Only Noblemtl
373. They came
JH Investment Company located in Myeongdong.
Wheeing.
Today, as always, the sound of the copy machine running in the office rang out without stopping.
There was no way even the sound of the typewriter would stop.
There was also the sound of documents being shuffled around, the clack-clack sound of staplers being picked up, and the sound of ledgers being turned.
But there were occasional sighs mixed in.
“There aren’t enough people for the amount of work.”
“At this rate, I’m going to have to work overtime again today.”
“Staying up all night for a day or two… … . Ah, nosebleed!”
Even quickly covering my nose with a tissue has become a familiar part of my daily routine.
It had been a long time since the speed at which boxes of documents were piled up was faster than the speed at which they were disposed of.
“I don’t think I’ll be able to meet the deadline.”
“Can’t we somehow bring in those fucking Japanese guys?”
I feel sorry for the Southeast Skunk and his men who used to harass me for not being able to keep a proper ledger.
Daughter.
Taesung Group security guards, pulling a cart, rushed in.
The office workers’ faces became pale.
“Another document?”
“This is information on the acquisition of a Japanese oil company.”
Japan can still do it!
There are already several oil companies on the list of candidates for acquisition, so I’ve already listed them!
“This is Taiwanese, this is Chinese, and that is American. This is related to the acquisition of an oil refinery.”
This can’t be happening!
“The documents for the financial holding company are also coming. President Shim said that they have to be processed especially quickly.”
“… … .”
Thud. Thud, thud, thud.
JH Investment office staff members began to appear one after another, collapsing on their chairs like dominoes.
But the rattling sound of the door didn’t stop.
Round and round.
The Taesung Group security guards’ carts didn’t stop either.
Boxes of documents were steadily stacked against the office walls.
Bam!
Executive Director Cho glared at him with bloodshot eyes due to the continuous forced march and jumped up from his seat.
“Eight, I can’t possibly do this!”
He threw away the payment documents he was holding and the red pen he was busy playing with in a nervous manner.
“I’ll take up arms first before all my children die from overwork!”
“Director!”
“Don’t stop me! I’m going to have a talk with President Shim right now!”
“Mr. Shim, you finally slept well after four days!”
“I stayed up three nights too! I can’t stand it anymore, I can’t stand it anymore!”
Executive Director Cho shouted desperately.
“Shouldn’t we suggest hiring new employees?”
“Wow!”
Thunderous applause and enthusiastic cheers followed.
Everyone opened their eyes wide and shouted.
“Newbie! Newbie!”
“Worker! Worker!”
“We have to pick them! We have to pick them a lot!”
“If you roll it over and over again, there’s no way it won’t roll!”
A madness of overwork reigned in the office.
Director Baek snorted coldly at the sight.
“Isn’t everyone’s head in a mess because they haven’t slept for a few days?”
Director Baek is considered the most cool-headed and calculating executive among those from Taesung Construction.
His words were colder than ice.
“Isn’t training new employees a job?”
“… … !”
“In this situation, who has the presence of mind to take on the responsibility of educating employees?”
“… … !”
That was right.
The eyes of the office workers who had been going crazy became heavy.
Everyone began to come to their senses little by little in the face of the harsh reality.
“The situation is different from when we first hired Wookwang’s elite staff.”
Wookwang’s elite staff were already recognized to some extent for their work.
“Those people also had a hard time adjusting when they first came to our office.”
The Woo Kwang elite staff nodded their heads vigorously.
“The Japanese guys at Nakamura Real Estate were the same. Still, they were guys who had been running the company for over 7 years.”
They clicked their tongues and called it an old-fashioned ledger, but they were also a veteran ledger processing team.
Managing Director Cho looked upset and glared at Managing Director Baek.
“So are you saying we should all just die from overwork like this?”
“It means that we should change the direction of approach.”
“how?”
“I’m going to set the office on fire.”
Even after working all night, Baek Sang-mu’s bloodshot eyes were just as crazy.
“Gasoline, kerosene, diesel, just choose. I’ll do the work.”
“Hey, Manager Baek.”
“Whether I die this way or that, I’ll set fire to the ground and go to jail! Hehehe.”
“Stop! Get that guy! His eyes are completely wide open!”
Following Executive Director Cho’s orders, the office staff rushed in and held down the rampaging Executive Director Baek.
Daughter.
The office door opened with a clear, refreshing sound.
As usual, Taesung Group security guards were pulling carts and carrying boxes of documents, drawing attention.
“Hahaha, it’s been a while. How have you all been?”
who?
The tired office workers reflexively turned their heads.
With the dazzling sunlight at our backs, welcoming faces floated by.
“Yeah, that’s the smell! This awful box of documents smells!”
“Ahhh, I even missed the sound of the copy machine.”
“We’re back!”
no way……!
“Come on, come on, JH, fighting!”
Those entering the office cheered loudly.
They were members of the JH office who had been dispatched to the Taesung Group headquarters.
“Are you back?”
Director Cho couldn’t stand it anymore and jumped up and ran with his arms spread wide.
“Executive Director Kim, Director Park, and Managing Director Lee, it’s great to see you here!”
“Director Cho, how have you been… … your face is too hurt to ask… … Huh?”
Director Cho burst into laughter and grabbed the returning family members.
The same goes for the JH office staff.
“Manager Ahn, welcome back!”
“Vice President Ko, I missed you!”
“Manager Kang, I thought of you a lot anyway!”
Everyone ran to their returning family members and welcomed them warmly.
He was hurriedly dragged into the office.
“Welcome, welcome again!”
“I have no regrets even if I die now!”
“Let’s be together until we die!”
It was an excessive hospitality.
The returnees could not hide their excitement.
“I didn’t know I would be welcomed this way… … .”
“This passion, this bustle, this liveliness, this hospitality. I will never forget it until I die.”
“I don’t think I’ve ever felt this sense of belonging in any other affiliated company, you know!”
The returnees felt as if their hearts were going to burst.
“This is why I couldn’t leave JH and came back… …!”
The returnees who entered the office flinched.
I confirmed the presence of boxes of documents that filled two walls of the office.
“The boxes of documents have multiplied like crazy… … Ugh!”
By the time the returnees realized it was too late.
Director Baek shook off the dust from his suit and shouted in a cold voice.
“Lock the office door!”
“Yes, Director Baek!”
Crunch!
Director Baek smiled happily, brushing back his messy hair.
“Haha, so I’ve finally achieved my dream of extending my life. Welcome, everyone!”
Executive Director Cho also joined.
“If you’re part of our office, you know what I mean. It’s time to process the paperwork, everyone.”
Bam!
President Shim, who had popped out of his office, yawned while smoothing his disheveled clothes.
“Are you here? Why are you standing there blankly? You came to work, got paid, and if you can breathe, you have to work.”
The elite executives who were drafted from Taesung Group also got caught up in it and ended up receiving boxes of documents one by one.
* * *
When Taesung Group’s elite executives were dispatched to JH Investment.
They couldn’t help but complain.
-Who took this picture of me?
This was a demotion that could not be overlooked.
The upper line was full of reading.
-This is a special instruction from the Chairman. The Chairman and Vice Chairman are paying attention.
-Just compete with those from JH Investment and win based on your skills. Then, promotion is a given.
-This is the division led by CEO Shim, who is known as a management genius. You have to see for yourself how talented he is.
Taesung Group’s elite executives were confident.
-JH Investment is a tiny company that was founded just over a year ago.
-How much work can there be for an investment company that hasn’t even been listed yet?
-Just wait and see. We can easily handle that company’s monthly workload.
I’m sure you came here shouting that loudly.
‘Wow, this is crazy… …!’
‘This is all the work quota for today?’
The elite executives of Taesung Group were astonished.
‘Isn’t this a workload that one person can handle in one day?’
But what is this?
“I guess I’ll be leaving work early today for the first time in a while?”
Aren’t the people at JH Office happily working while whistling?
The boxes of documents disappeared at an incredible speed.
Wheeing.
Tata-tata-tak.
Click click. Parallel.
A pile of papers being torn down by mechanically skilled hands.
Even the report that was written so quickly was perfect, beyond reproach.
‘What is the quality of this report?’
‘You just sit down and write something like this?’
The Taesung Group’s elite staff couldn’t believe it even as they watched.
‘Am I the only one who finds this situation strange?’
‘What kind of monsters are these?’
They were also among the elite executives of Taesung Group affiliates.
That’s why the shock was even greater.
‘I’ve always known that people from JH Investment are good at their jobs, but I didn’t know they were this good!’
The JH family members who returned were excited and got to work.
“Yeah, this is how you make work fun!”
“Is it worth doing? Is it fun?”
The elite executives of Taesung Group looked at each other.
Everyone had half absurd expression, half a look of doubt.
Bam!
President Shim smiled brightly and handed out the health supplement pack.
“Come on, let’s go and take some medicine.”
The JH family members who returned gave a thumbs up to the taste of the health supplement they were drinking after a long time.
“Wow! That’s it, this is the taste!”
“This taste that sticks to your mouth is the taste of home!”
“I told you that I didn’t get this taste when I worked at other affiliates. I’m sure it’s a health supplement manufactured in the same place.”
Kiss kiss kiss.
The eyes of the office workers who had been going crazy had returned to gentleness.
It was thanks to him that I took a short nap at my desk while the returnees were finishing up their paperwork.
“I don’t know what it was that I missed so much.”
The JH family members who returned smiled brightly as they looked at the box of documents.
“In the past, whenever I looked at a pile of documents, I would feel overwhelmed and my vision would go dark.”
“If you didn’t know the joy of work, how could you not know?”
“I now feel like it’s a waste of my life to do boring and unrewarding chores.”
Here, they personally realized, ‘This is what corporate work is like!’
It was a pain to work here, but after working somewhere else, I wanted to go back.
There was a lot to gain and learn.
“Besides, I’ve reached a point where I can’t be satisfied with just the paltry performance bonus and salary.”
“What will I do if I get promoted to manager? I won’t be able to buy my own house with just my salary.”
“I will spend my whole life at JH. I will earn enough money to retire early!”
Executive Director Cho raised his hand.
“It’s the end of the year, the office staff must be back, and they must have gotten rid of the work. Aren’t we having a company dinner today?”
“Han Woo-jeong! Han Woo-jeong!”
“Company dinner! Company dinner!”
President Shim smiled brightly.
“Shall we? Let’s go.”
The JH office staff cheered.
“Hanwoojeong dinner! Ugh, I missed this too!”

December 31st, 10:21 AM.
The president, who was visiting the event venue to hold a ceremony to open long-distance automatic payphones (DDD) in 92 regions across the country, heard an absurd report.
“The Japanese Prime Minister’s private plane landed in Gimpo?”
The president nervously took off his sunglasses.
“Without even notifying me that you were coming to Korea?”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
The Foreign Minister was in a difficult position.
“About a hundred people entered the country as a group, including the Prime Minister of Japan, high-ranking officials from each ministry, as well as the leader and executives of the Liberal Democratic Party of Japan, and the chairman and members of the Japan Business Federation.”
“Is it true that you didn’t send a single official document?”
“That, that’s right. I also don’t know what the heck is going on… … .”
So everyone can’t help but be confused.
If the president had announced his visit to Korea in advance, he would not be leisurely observing the opening ceremony like this.
Gimpo Airport was turned upside down by the sudden appearance of celebrities from Japan’s political and business world.
“Where are you going? The Blue House?”
I shouldn’t be here like this.
I have to hurry back to greet the Japanese dignitaries… … .
“This is the residence of the deceased Jeong Dong-jin.”
……what?
