Son of a Conglomerate at the Highest Level - Chapter 120



＜ Blue House Luncheon (2) ＞

The sudden sudden action froze the crowd.

The chief of security at the Blue House shouted at the reporters who came to cover the story.

“Turn off the camera! Turn off the tape recorder! I’ll drag you nonsense bastard into the courtyard!”

“Turn it off!”

“I know what will happen if I use the article carelessly. You’d better listen to me.”

“No, of course! I didn’t write an article! I didn’t take a picture!”

“Stay away until I call! Won’t you turn off right now?”

“going! I’ll leave right away!”

Reporters who were supposed to report on the friendly scene got scared and rushed out.

bang!

As soon as the banquet hall door closed, Woo-gwang’s Kim Dae-sik cried out in a loud voice.

“Your Excellency, save Woo-gwang!”

The president’s eyes looking down at him were cold.

Even in the heavy silence in the middle of the room, only Kim Dae-shik shouted desperately.

“Woogwang is a conglomerate that ranks ninth in the business world. If Woogwang collapses like this, the Korean economy will stumble.”

“Are you threatening me now?”

“I will be your dog!”

It was a white flag surrender.

“If you bark, you will bark, if you bite, you will bite! Please save me!”

Kim Dae-sik raised his head and met the President’s eyes.

“Should I bark?”

“under······?”

“Monthly! Whoops!”

In the heavy silence, the sound of frightened breathing intermittently mingled.

The chaebol group heads looked down at Kim Dae-shik of Woo-gwang with expressions that were difficult to describe.

Military leaders gave contemptuous glances, and high-ranking officials in the administration shed a low laugh.

“Your Excellency will do anything you want! Just give orders!”

Kim Dae-shik did not care.

“Do you want to promote a proud Republic of Korea, a great leader, and a developing country? Leave it to Woo Kwang! I will pack public opinion more splendidly than anyone else!”

Opinion warfare was Woo-gwang’s specialty.

“Do you need export performance? Woo-gwang will also roll up his arms and follow him! If your Excellency wishes, Woo-gwang will give up domestic demand and focus only on exports!”

The president placed great importance on visible performance and outward image.

This is because he was from a military coup that lacked legitimacy.

The dictatorship was often criticized not only at home but also abroad.

“Do you want to achieve self-reliant national defense? Need more firepower? Then, Woogwang will transform itself into a company specializing in the defense industry!”

Woo-gwang’s Kim Dae-sik faced the cold and contemptuous eyes that were pouring down on him.

Still, he laughed.

“Please use Woo-gwang as a source of funding for the presidential election and politics. You can wash money more cleanly than anyone else!”

Military leaders and senior administrative officials coughed awkwardly.

I was in trouble yesterday because of the bribe I received from Wookwang Construction.

They didn’t know that they would be shameless enough to openly appeal, so they couldn’t help but be embarrassed to see Kim Dae-shik.

The president, who was coldly looking down at Kim Dae-shik, raised one corner of his mouth.

“That’s fun.”

When the president gave a light chin, the head of the Blue House Security Office stepped forward and shouted out loud.

“What are you doing in front of His Excellency? Is this the bottom of the market street? did you see Everyone sit down!”

The president walked over and sat at the highest seat at the round table.

The Chief of Security at the Blue House sat to the right of the President, and the Chief of Staff at the Blue House sat to the left.From noble mtl dot com

Next to him was the chief of the central government, and next to him was the army security commander.

“Don’t eat.”

The heads of chaebol groups who were invited to the luncheon reluctantly sat down.

It was a seat assigned according to the name on the nameplate.

However, no matter how much I looked around, there were no seats for military leaders and high-ranking administrative officials.

They stood around a round table.

“Keuheum, Your Excellency. It seems that there are not enough seats…”

“No way.”

The president didn’t even look at the people standing there.

“I was just not allowed to sit down because I committed a crime.”

The heads of chaebol groups massaged the numb back of their necks.

Heavy eyes were pouring in from all directions.

Do you have to sit down and eat?

“Woo-gwang nameplate, get rid of it.”

Woogwang’s Kim Dae-shik was also prevented from sitting down.

“It’s used when a dog tries to sickle a person.”

“… you are right.”

Kim Dae-shik of Woo-gwang smiled bitterly as he looked at the food placed for his portion.

“Since when has a dog been eating spoons? I will eat it as it is.”

Kim Dae-sik of Woogwang ate wagu wagu food with his nose in the bowl.

The rice grains splattered, and the soup splattered.

In an instant, not only the corners of his mouth, but also his clothes became dirty.

The heads of chaebol groups couldn’t hide their astonishment when they saw a person lying on the floor and eating like a dog.

The Chief of Security at the Blue House did not hide a fishy laugh.

Wow Jangchang! Degur.

The Chief of Security at the Blue House kicked Kim Dae-shik’s tray.

The brass bowl was intact, but the rice and side dishes in it were spilled.

“why? can’t you eat Since when did the dog pick up food?”

“… that’s right.”

Woo-gwang’s Kim Dae-shik laughed and started licking it.

The president looked down at such Kim Dae-shik with a nonchalant gaze.

“The dog has been talking a lot since before.”

“Month month!”

Kim Dae-sik stopped eating and knelt down on the floor.

The president looked back at the flagship group leaders and frowned.

“Are you not going to eat?”

“Ha, I am.”

“Thank you, I will eat well.”

Blue House luncheon meeting.

It was literally a meeting made with the intention of having lunch together and having a light conversation.

However, the chaebol group heads did not know whether the grains of rice went down their throats or down their nostrils.

From behind, military leaders and high-ranking administrative officials are standing around and watching, while Woo-gwang’s Kim Dae-shik is eating like a dog on the floor.

The president even threw a napkin with a chilly expression.

“It’s a piece of sh*t.”

From noble mtl dot com

No one dared to agree in front of the president.

But everyone was thinking the same thing.

* * *

Until the luncheon was over, Kim Dae-shik of Woo-gwang was not allowed to get up from the floor or even speak.

All of this was what he volunteered to do.

“······For this reason, we have reported because we are concerned that a second oil shock may occur sooner or later. That is all.”

The last person allowed to speak was Cha Seong-joon of Taesung Engineering & Construction, who sat in the last seat.

Statement on the possibility of an oil shock.

That was the reason a young construction president was invited to the Blue House luncheon.

“How likely is it to happen?”

“It’s not very big. We have brought the opinions of related experts, so please refer to them.”

“Why do you even mention it?”

“It is because I have seen, heard and experienced things while traveling to the Middle East. It’s because the atmosphere that touches the skin is unusual.”

“In a word, is this intuition?”

“yes.”

Taesung Construction Cha Seong-jun nodded obediently.

“Whether to believe or not is up to you, Your Excellency. I just said what I felt.”

The president looked around at the chaebol group heads invited to the luncheon.

“Everyone seems to be in disbelief.”

The heads of chaebol groups were putting on disapproving faces.

“Keuheum, Your Excellency. We also go overseas several times a year, so there are things we see and hear.”

“Even Europe and America are not worried about another oil crisis.”

“You’re young, so it makes sense. There’s a saying, Jeongjeojiwa, isn’t it?”

Jeongjeojiwa (井底之蛙).

It means frog in the well.

It leads to the narrow insight that one thinks that what he sees and hears is everything.

“Well, if an oil crisis really erupts, it is obvious that the national economy will be greatly shaken.”

“I think it’s time to pursue business more aggressively, rather than shrinking from needless concerns.”

“you’re right. It’s time to finally recover from the damage we suffered during the last oil crisis.”

“If we slow down here, it will be difficult for Korea to grow into an advanced country.”

Until the mid-1960s, South Korea was one of the poorest countries.

Thanks to government-led industrialization and industrialization, Korea has barely entered the developing world.

“Just take note. Stop whining later.”

“Yes, Your Excellency.”

It was still disbelief.

The president rubbed his chin.

“Only Taeseong sees the same era and the same situation differently.”

“Kuhm!”

“You’ll know when you see it. Who was right?”

Before the chaebol leaders could speak, the president threw his eyes at a figure kneeling on the floor of the banquet hall.

“How do I dispose of Woo-gwang?”

“Please save me!”

“Woo-gwang covered my eyes, covered my ears, and lost face.”

“I have committed a mortal sin! Since I have sinned, I will accept the reparation!”

Woo-gwang’s Kim Dae-sik was desperate.

It’s been a long time since I threw away my pride and face.

“I want to be of assistance to you and my country! I will devote my allegiance to my patriotism!”

“Export, defense, financing, manipulation of public opinion.”

It was what Woo-gwang appealed to.

I will become a useful dog, so please save me.

I will choose survival over pride.

This was the meaning of the next Dae Woo-gwang.

“Not bad.”

When the president showed interest, the four influential people sitting next to the president as well as the top leaders standing around the round table stiffened their bodies.

“If you took a bribe, you have to pay for it. You have nothing to say?”

It was a bone horse.

Wookwang Construction’s bribery ledger made those who suffered hardship flinch.

“Shouldn’t you guys get down on your knees and shout together? Wasn’t that the money you took with that in mind?”

“I was wrong, Your Excellency!”

“Did you think I would hang on to my trouser crotch to save Woo-gwang?”

“Your Excellency, I have committed a mortal sin!”

“I will never do something so filthy again!”

“Forgive me, Your Excellency!”

The president glanced at Taesung Group Chairman Cha.

“I heard that Taeseong gave up chemistry and handed it over to Woo-gwang.”

“Yes, we agreed to end the partnership after the marriage struggled.”

“That means that Taeseong will completely withdraw from Bangsan, right?”

“no. Since we have been able to grow to this point thanks to our country, it means that we will of course repay our country and His Excellency with patriotism.”

“hmm?”

The unexpected words made the president pause.

“You seem to be saying something that the nobleman, who was as stiff as an iron core, wouldn’t say.”

“Even though Taeseong is stiff, he has never turned a blind eye to His Excellency’s will. What is the reason Taeseong risked his life to develop technology?”

The president looked at Cha with an openly interested expression.

“His Excellency wants to focus on strengthening the military power, but of course Taeseong should also contribute a hand. I will follow.”

The corner of his mouth was slightly raised in his eager eyes.

I have already received a report that Taeseong paid a large amount of funds for the presidential election first.

The Chief of Security at the Blue House listened to it with a big smile.

He said that he rarely praised Taeseong for not acting like him.

“Starting this year, we will produce parts for tanks, armored vehicles and military vehicles.”

Chairman Cha said forcefully.

“I will take over Wookwang Shipbuilding. Then, Taeseong can also take charge of warships, missiles, torpedoes, and communication equipment.”

Chairman Oh of the Hyunmoo Group quickly opened his mouth.

“Hyunmu will take over Wookwang Chemical. Hyunmu is the best with guns, artillery, bombs and missiles.”

“We, Samhwang, want to take over Wookwang Refinery. Samhwang will produce aviation fuel for fighters and bombers.”

As soon as the Samhwang Group joined, Geumjo, Chunma, Ilseong, Roksan, and Sanguk also rushed.

It literally jumped into the mud to eat Woogwang.

The president frowned at the scuffle between the corporate heads.

“Your Excellency, Taesung has sent his intention to actively participate in the defense industry, so please give us your strength.”

The Chief of Security at the Blue House opened his mouth without hesitation.

“Taesung is technical skill, right? If Taeseong actively produces defense materials, it will be of great help to national prosperity and military strength. It is a very good decision.”

Even the chief of staff at the Blue House joined forces.

“Since Taesung signed a technical agreement with Toyoto of Japan, I heard that heavy equipment and automobiles are also quite good.”

“If we upgrade shipbuilding technology here, we will be able to improve warships and naval probes far more than they are now.”

The Army Security Commander, who had been quiet, spoke for the first time.

“It’s a military weapon supplied with Taeseong’s technology. I look forward to that.”

The head of the central government also nodded.

“Definitely not bad.”

I only added a couple of words subtly.

When there was no dissenting opinion among his closest aides, the president looked back at Chairman Cha.

“I didn’t expect so many people to put their hopes on Taeseong.”

The corner of the president’s mouth went up even more than a moment ago.

It was only twice that the president had a smile-like expression at a dinner party.

Both were related to Taeseong.

“quiet.”

The president raised his hand.

The people who greedily talked about Woo-gwang’s takeover all shut up.

“Excluding Chairman Cha. Let everyone out.”

It was said that he would have a private meeting with Chairman Cha.

When Kim Dae-sik of Woogwang also stood up while shaking off his pants, the president gestured to him like a dog.

“sit down.”
