The Highest Level Son of a Chaebol Family - Chapter 406
Only Krnovel
406. I’ll stick a straw in!
I jumped up from my seat.
“Shall we go?”
“Okay, wait a minute!”
The Japanese Prime Minister screamed.
“The negotiations aren’t over yet!”
“Can’t you see that piece of trash rolling around on the floor?”
It was an agreement that the Japanese Prime Minister had crumpled up.
“Is this the answer?”
“It was just a show.”
But the Japanese Prime Minister’s face was thicker than expected.
“It’s a common strategy and gambit in negotiations. It’s the kind of thing politicians often do.”
“The commander-in-chief’s remarks are heavy, aren’t they?”
“… … .”
The Japanese Prime Minister was speechless, only moving his lips.
I put my hands together and bowed.
“Then take a look.”
“Not yet!”
widely!
The Japanese Prime Minister grabbed my arm.
“If I go on like this, I’ll end up regretting it later.”
The Japanese Prime Minister quickly picked up an envelope of documents that he had placed on the wooden table.
“If I go out like this now, I won’t have a chance to receive this!”
That envelope that was oozing with golden light even before I opened it!
He made a big fuss about opening it after confirming the intention to negotiate.
This must have been the secret weapon that the Japanese Prime Minister had been ambitiously preparing.
‘I’m curious, but… … .’
How the golden light flashed so dazzlingly.
Are you saying that it tastes quite good?
I found myself tasting something without realizing it.
The Japanese prime minister added subtly.
“I guarantee you, it will be a sweeter offer than anything you’ve ever seen before.”
“Hmm.”
“I told you, I don’t wave a carrot at someone who has already made up their mind.”
What sweet carrots.
Why is this gentleman so confident?
“How about we both take a step back and make concessions?”
The Japanese Prime Minister’s voice became more subdued.
“If we fight with the determination to die, the Jeong family will suffer just as much as we do. It is better to coexist than to fight.”
“But the Prime Minister said he would never stamp his seal even if he died, right?”
“… … .”
The heavy words of the Commander-in-Chief became his chains.
But what is this?
“Hahaha, forget about what happened earlier. I did it because I didn’t like the negotiation terms.”
“… … .”
The Japanese Prime Minister was even more shameless than expected.
“If there are differences of opinion, they can be resolved by mediation. Isn’t that what the negotiation table was created for?”
“You said you’ve already made up your mind?”
“I’ve made up my mind. I’m willing to show my sincerity for our symbiotic project!”
“… … .”
Yes, you have to be this shameless to be considered a politician.
Hot.
The Japanese Prime Minister put an entire envelope in my hand.
“Wouldn’t this be enough to resume dialogue?”
Bribery and favors were a set.
“Establishing a financial holding company in the name of the Jeong family? Okay, I promise!”
“Just in words?”
“You can show it with actions.”
The Japanese prime minister shouted while looking at the leader of the Liberal Democratic Party and the prime minister’s secretary.
“We will unconditionally pass the bill on easing regulations on the establishment of financial holding companies within the first half of this year.”
“Mr. Prime Minister, that has not been agreed upon yet… …!”
“There is no negotiation or compromise here, so no dissent or objection!”
The Japanese Prime Minister glared.
“We also plan to carry out restructuring of insolvent financial institutions.”
“Prime Minister!”
The governor of the Bank of Japan expressed his shock.
But the Japanese Prime Minister snorted.
“As soon as I return to Japan, I’ll compile a list of insolvent companies. One bank, one securities firm, one insurance company, and one asset management company.”
“Prime Minister, how can you do that… …!”
“Don’t touch the soil.”
The Japanese Prime Minister raised his hand.
“In this case, wasn’t it a matter of knowing the loss when you got off the tour bus?”
“Okay.”
“One more thing. Banks and companies involved with JH Investment will promise friendly cooperation. But only until the loan is repaid.”
“ha…….”
The Prime Minister’s closest aides sighed deeply.
But I couldn’t refute it otherwise.
“What can I do? If you feel wronged, just tell him to pay off his debt quickly.”
This was a logic of power that was applied not only in the financial world but also in back alleys.
“Prime Minister, we should take this opportunity to clearly convey our conditions.”
It was the leader of the Liberal Democratic Party who had been waiting for an opportunity to intervene all along.
“Closing the Nakamura Real Estate ledger and the Northcorp Gate… … .”
“This is annoying.”
A discovered intention turns into a weakness.
Now that it has been discovered that the Go-Stop game was rigged, all they can do is lie down flat and hope for leniency.
“What you said earlier about resigning from the position of LDP leader was not an empty promise.”
It was a stern warning.
The Liberal Democratic Party leader’s eyes rolled.
Then the Japanese Prime Minister clicked his tongue.
“Don’t try to convince me, just move to keep your position. That’s the order.”
“… … Yes, Prime Minister.”
The Liberal Democratic Party leader bowed his head in resignation.
The Japanese Prime Minister turned to me.
“Is this enough of a promise?”
What is enough?
“I tell you that I only trust money and documents, not words or actions?”
“Okay, fine. If you want to write a document, then write it.”
The Japanese Prime Minister’s voice was refreshing.
“But, the conditions from before are not acceptable.”
“Negotiations broke down?”
“Negotiation is about reconciling differences and adjusting conditions. We are here at the negotiating table now.”
The Japanese Prime Minister ruffled my hair.
“Just like we postponed the short-term loan recovery period and adjusted the period of non-interference with the Jeong family’s business. We’ll have to try to match the conditions.”
How nice it would be if this had come out a long time ago!
But I deliberately squinted my eyes.
Do you think you’re the only one who does intentional performances?
I can do that too!
The so-called ‘If you keep tugging, just get out!’ strategy!
“You don’t like the conditions, so you’re going to keep refusing like you did before?”
“you’re welcome.”
So I asked.
“Then, can you adjust the conditions for our Jeong family’s business to a tax exemption instead of a tax reduction?”
“Duty free?”
“Why don’t you just ask for money?”
“… … .”
“Why? Isn’t this also out of my authority?”
“I accept that offer.”
As the Japanese prime minister made his cool remark, his closest aides cheered.
“Prime Minister, can you just make a fuss like this when there was no prior agreement?”
“Be quiet! This is strictly within my authority!”
That was right.
“I’m not saying I’m going to use the Japanese government’s budget, but can’t I exercise this much authority?”
“… … .”
So everyone had no choice but to keep their mouths shut, even with worried expressions on their faces.
‘Oh, this is the tyranny of public power!’
The Supreme Commander’s privilege for me!
I like it very much!
So I asked back secretly.
“What about people and things? Are you willing to adjust the conditions for this as well?”
“If possible.”
The Japanese prime minister drew the line first.
“However, this does not apply to semiconductor patent technology, automobile engine technology, or electrical and electronic product production technology.”
“good bye.”
The hand that grabbed my arm on the road was urgent.
“That is the core technology that will be responsible for Japan’s economy for the next 10 years!”
That’s true.
“It’s too much to transfer patent rights and cutting-edge production facilities for 10 years!”
“Then how about 5 years?”
“This is a national security-level confidential matter and an administrative matter for which negotiation of terms is impossible in the first place!”
I know.
So, I guess the Japanese Prime Minister is maintaining his attitude that he cannot do that even if he dies soon.
“We are standing here for Japan. But if the result is the treasonous act of selling out Japan, then the purpose has been reversed.”
“Then how about some of it instead of all of it?”
“hmm?”
The strength in the Japanese Prime Minister’s hand that was holding my arm suddenly disappeared.
So I also took a step back.
“Aside from core patented technologies that will be responsible for the future Japanese economy, I’m talking about technologies that are more downgraded than those. It’s okay to give up that much, right?”
“If it’s a downgrade… … .”
“For example, the technology of Japan’s top 30 companies is excluded.”
“Hmm.”
An unmistakable hesitation appeared on the Japanese Prime Minister’s face.
The chairman of the Japan Economic Federation immediately opened his mouth.
“No, Mr. Prime Minister. Let alone 30, even 100 companies are excessive!”
“What about the top 300 companies then?”
“To that extent… I think it will be okay, Prime Minister.”
The Chairman of the Japan Economic Federation took a step back, but I did not.
“300 companies? Isn’t that too small of a company?”
“If we are a top 300 company in Japan, we are a top 300 company in the world.”
You’re being too proud!
But instead of arguing, I decided to change the conditions.
“Okay. But in that case, let’s not interfere or limit anything.”
“call.”
The Japanese Prime Minister readily accepted the call.
When the Prime Minister’s Secretary and the Chairman of the Japan Business Federation showed signs of immediately refuting the claims, the Japanese Prime Minister raised his hand.
“As the Prime Minister of Japan, I will not tolerate any individual disrupting the market order.”
“Prime Minister, but… … !”
“According to the logic of the market. Within the limits permitted by Japanese law.”
The Japanese Prime Minister smiled broadly.
“Isn’t it impossible for our Japanese government to condone illegal activities?”
“You are absolutely right, Prime Minister.”
Only then did the Prime Minister’s secretary and the chairman of the Japan Economic Federation feel relieved and keep their mouths shut.
The Japanese Prime Minister turned to me.
“Financial holding company? Yes. Inter-company technology agreement? Yes. But it has to be done legally. Is that difficult?”
“Yeah.”
I also readily said okay.
However, the Japanese Prime Minister showed a puzzled expression.
“Are you serious?”
“sure.”
I took the documents out of my briefcase.
He spread out three flimsy documents side by side on a wooden table.
“What is that?”
“This is an agreement that has been prepared with the changed contents.”
“… … .”
The Japanese Prime Minister took out a document without saying a word and let out a hollow laugh.
“her?”
It was a laughter filled with a look of absurdity.
“How can you do something like this without missing a single word or deadline… … .”
“Do you see the Jeong family crest stamped there?”
We had the Jeong family seal stamped on the signature stamp on our side in advance.
“How is it? Have you confirmed my sincerity?”
“her!”
“This is your last chance to prove your sincerity.”
The Japanese Prime Minister could not hide his embarrassment.
“What the heck is this… … !”
It became darker with each page of the three-page document.
“How could the conditions we changed and agreed upon have been written down in advance and come out of that briefcase… …!”
“What’s the problem?”
I tilted my head to the side.
“Just look at the results. This is an agreement that properly includes all the conditions we agreed on, right?”
“How can the legislative promise, as well as the 10-year, 5-year term, the 300 companies, the tax exemption, and the non-intervention conditions be kept as they are… … Heh, heh, heh heh, heh heh heh.”
The Japanese Prime Minister looked defeated and was unable to continue speaking.
“So are you going to stamp it or not?”
I poked at the papers with my fingertips.
Because I haven’t received the stamp yet.
My intentional performance strategy is not over yet.
“If you keep tugging, just turn it off.”
“What a truly great trickster you were.”
It was a resigned face.
The Japanese Prime Minister swung his fountain pen in a single stroke.
‘wow!’
It’s golden!
The completed document, signed and stamped, flashed a dazzling golden light.
That wasn’t all.
‘Hey… …!’
I opened the envelope that was given to me as a price to resume the conversation.
A document flashed with a more dazzling golden light than that and popped out.
It was a promise to unconditionally recognize the authority for one national project that the Japanese government could approve.
‘It’s pretty good, isn’t it?’
It was something that would be shocking to the closest associates of the Jeong family.
The Japanese government can promote Japan’s key projects by attracting funds and manpower from the Jeong family.
Because it is an opportunity for the Jeong family to advance into the Yangji area and expand their power and influence.
‘I really like this phrase.’
A part with a particularly strong, sparkling golden color.
This means that in a certain area, you can do business as you please without worrying about competitors.
But the scope of the area was very cleverly specified.
In short, if you want to live freely, go down to a rural village!
It was something typical of a Japanese prime minister who likes to add the word ‘only’ to the end of every sentence.
‘Then I’m totally thankful!’
I smiled brightly.
“It’s been decided. Give us the development rights for the 7th mine.”
Now, let’s take advantage of the estimated 100 billion barrels of oil and gas resources located in the shared waters of the South China Sea and the East China Sea!
