Episode 321. Instructions

Oh Myeong-hun didn’t say anything for a while after Jin-woo said he would eat Jinbaek.

There was just a heavy silence.

For a moment, Oh Myung-hoon’s voice flowed heavily from the other end of the phone.

-Have you made a decision?

The decision is final.

This is the first step towards punishing Cho Hak-ju.

Jinwoo answered Oh Myeong-hun’s question without hesitation.

“Yes, I have decided.”

Oh Myeong-hun opened his mouth with a small sigh.

-I always say this, it’s dangerous.

The opponent is Jo Hak-ju.

He is leading in approval ratings in the upcoming presidential election, and it is no exaggeration to say that the power that Cho Hak-joo holds is the highest in South Korea.

The reason is that the current president is in a lame duck period ahead of the presidential election.

Even the current president is linked to Jin Woo-ryeong and has already been framed as a criminal.

A situation where the president’s wings were literally clipped.

Thanks to that, all those in power in South Korea bowed their heads to Cho Hak-ju.

Because Cho Hak-joo is a strong candidate to become the next president.

So Oh Myeong-hun thought.

It is dangerous to confront such a person head-on.

But Jinwoo opened his mouth with a faint smile.

“I always say this. Has there ever been anything I do that wasn’t dangerous? If you hesitate because it’s dangerous or difficult, you’ll fail even when you could have succeeded.”

Jinwoo has always walked a dangerous path.

It was always a dangerous, extreme situation that could have resulted in death.

But as a result, Jinwoo was able to catch Jinwooryeong.

And now only Jo Hak-ju is left.

“Now is the time to catch Cho Hak-ju. There is no time to hesitate.”

-Okay, I got it. Okay, I’ll start laying the groundwork now.

And so the call ended.

Jinwoo put his cell phone in his pocket and looked forward.

What Jinwoo sees is Jo Hak-joo’s car moving away.

Jinwoo looked at the car and smiled quietly.

***

The next day, Jinbaek Group’s strategic planning office.

There was chaos there.

Because Jin Woo-ryeong was arrested.

There was even an analysis that Jin Woo-ryeong would not be easily released.

“It seems difficult to avoid imprisonment.”

The head of the strategic planning department looked at the employee with cold eyes and asked in the employee’s desperate voice.

“so?”

“yes?”

“Are you going to lose your mind?! You’re going to meet a judge or something… … .”

The head of the strategic planning office trailed off.

Because suddenly the sound of the office door opening was heard.

The strategic planning director’s gaze turned toward the door.

And then I saw a person standing there.

That person was Oh Myeong-hun.

Oh Myeong-hun was standing in front of him with a dry expression.

“… … Chief Oh Myeong-hun?”

Oh Myung-hoon opened his mouth as he entered the office at the blank voice of the strategic planning director.

“Director of Strategy Planning, do you know why Chairman Baek Dong-ha created the Strategy Planning Office?”

While the director of the strategic planning office tilted his head, Oh Myung-hoon’s voice continued.

“It was created to establish a strategy that will take responsibility for Jinbaek’s future.”

“… … !”

“But instead of coming up with a strategy, we’ve become a group of dogs that just wag their tails at Chairman Jin Woo-ryeong?”

The strategic planning director’s jaw clenched.

“Have you come to pick a fight?”

The strategic planning director’s voice was low.

But Oh Myeong-hun sat on the sofa and acted leisurely.

“What are you arguing about on my topic…? I came here to have a cup of tea.”

“Tea?”

“I’d like coffee. Iced.”

The head of the strategic planning office narrowed his eyes at Oh Myeong-hun’s nagging.

The head of the strategic planning office knew Oh Myeong-hun as Baek Cheol-young’s person.

So I thought.

The reason why Oh Myung-hoon appeared here in this situation.

It was said that he had come to convey Baek Cheol-yeong’s intention.

The strategic planning director, who had organized his thoughts like that, turned his gaze to his employees and opened his mouth.

“Bring me coffee.”

After a while, only Oh Myung-hoon and the head of the strategic planning department were sitting in the office.

And it was time for Oh Myung-hoon to put down his teacup.

The head of the strategic planning office moved his lips.

“What brings you here?”

Instead of answering, Oh Myeong-hun took out a document and threw it on the table.

It was natural that the strategic planning director’s gaze turned to the documents.

“What is it?”

The head of the strategic planning office asked, but Oh Myung-hoon did not answer this time either.

He just gave me a look that told me to read it.

The director of the strategic planning office held the documents in his hand with an anxious look in his eyes.

And that’s the moment you open the document.

The eyes of the strategic planning director became tense.

“This, this is… … .”

This is the data that Oh Myung-hoon has collected so far.

It was corruption committed by the Director of Strategy Planning under Jin Woo-ryeong’s instructions.

The problem is that there is no evidence that Jin Woo-ryeong gave instructions there.

In other words, if this document is handed over to the investigative authorities, the Director of Strategy Planning will have to fall into the abyss, taking all the blame.

When the head of the strategic planning office’s breathing became ragged, Oh Myung-hoon put down his coffee cup and opened his mouth.

“Have you ever seen a servant who was taken away by his master and remained unharmed?”

“… … !”

“But there is a way to be ok.”

The director of the strategic planning office asked with a serious expression, wiping his face.

“What… do you want?”

Oh Myeong-hun smiled brightly.

“It’s good that you’re quick-witted.”

“I asked what you were talking about!”

“Why are you yelling? I want two things.”

“Two?”

“First, gather the executives.”

“… … The executives?!”

The head of the strategic planning office couldn’t understand why he had to suddenly assemble the executive team.

But then, it was then.

I heard Oh Myung-hoon speak.

“And please hand over to me the corruption in the executive team that you have in strategic planning.”

The director of strategic planning suddenly stood up without realizing it.

Not only did they assemble the executives, they also demanded corruption.

“What, what are you trying to do?!”

But Oh Myeong-hun did not give a clear answer.

“Just watch.”

“Chief Oh Myeong-hun!”

As the voice of the strategic planning director grew louder, Oh Myung-hoon snickered and shook his head.

And then he opened his mouth, tapping the document containing the corruption of the strategic planning director with his finger.

“Do you think it’s funny when I talk so nicely and whisper to you?”

“… … !”

“Before you quickly send this document to the investigative agency, don’t think about it and just do as you are told.”

Oh Myung-hoon’s eyes were eerie.

The head of the strategic planning office swallowed dry saliva at the sight of those eyes.

“Answer me.”

The head of the strategic planning office could only nod his head in response to Oh Myeong-hun’s subsequent words.

***

At that time, the Serious Crimes Investigation Division.

Jinwoo, who was dispatched due to Jinwooryeong’s investigation, was walking down the hallway.

Jiiing.

Jinwoo’s cell phone vibrated.

The caller number was Oh Myeong-hun.

As Jinwoo put the phone to his ear, Oh Myunghoon’s voice flowed out.

-The board is set.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

Jinwoo ended the call and looked out the window.

Dark clouds were gathering in the distance.

Jinwoo felt like those dark clouds were showing him Jo Hak-ju’s future.

It seemed as if Cho Hak-ju was unable to withstand the raging wind and rain and was about to collapse.

“soon…….”

A bleak smile appeared on Jinwoo’s lips.

***

A few days later, in the Jinbaek Group conference room.

The presidents of each affiliated company were sitting there.

But everyone had questioning eyes.

Because no one knew why the executives had gathered together.

“Director of Strategy Planning, what is the topic of today’s meeting? Is it about Chairman Jin Woo-ryeong?”

A CEO asked the head of the strategic planning office.

But the Director of Strategy Planning also had no answer.

“Well, I was instructed to do so… … .”

“So, who gave that order? Baek Cheol-yeong and Baek Seo-yeon aren’t here either, right?”

Baek Cheol-yeong and Baek Seo-yeon were not present.

Only executives other than the Baek family were gathered there.

Then another boss asked,

“Did candidate Cho Hak-ju call for a gathering?”

At those words, the eyes of everyone gathered there sparkled.

And then their gaze turned back to the Director of Strategy Planning.

“Is that candidate Cho Hak-ju? Well, Jin Baek is in crisis, so I don’t think candidate Cho Hak-ju will just let it go.”

That’s when they thought so.

The conference room door opened and everyone’s eyes turned to the door.

All the CEOs gathered here were expecting Cho Hak-ju to appear.

However, the person who appeared was not Jo Hak-ju, but Jin-woo.

Jinwoo appeared in front of everyone.

It was natural for doubts to appear in the eyes of the executives.

But Jinwoo didn’t care about their gazes.

Naturally, I walked towards the top seat with a heavy gait.

So Jinwoo stood at the head seat.

But Jinwoo didn’t say anything for a while.

He just looked at the faces of the executives, smiled bitterly, and then sighed.

“under…….”

There was no welcoming face to be seen here.

All the people sitting are Jo Hak-ju and Jin Woo-ryeong’s people.

They are traitors.

In other words, the Jinbaek that Jinwoo knew no longer existed.

“… …Who are you?”

Jinwoo was shaken from his thoughts by the president’s words.

And then he looked at everyone with cold eyes and opened his mouth.

“You don’t need to know who I am. I’ll make a proposal now.”

“… … ?”

“Transfer all of your affiliates’ shares of Jinbaek Holdings to Jinbaek Finance.”

The executives looked at Jinwoo with the eyes of a crazy person.

But Jinwoo continued talking without caring.

“And one more thing. Check all the shareholder registers of each affiliate. And if there’s anything strange, bring it all.”

“… … !”

“To be more precise, I’m asking you to find the shares that candidate Cho Hak-ju has hidden in various places in Jinbaek’s name.”

At that moment, ‘Bam!’ the president stood up, slamming the table with his palm.

“Candidate Cho Hak-ju’s secret stake?! What the hell are you doing?!”

Jinwoo turned his gaze towards the president.

“I told you you don’t need to know what I’m doing. And this isn’t a suggestion. It’s an order.”

At that moment, a picture appeared on the screen behind Jinwoo.

It is the corruption of the president who is standing now.

Jinwoo continued speaking while looking at the screen.

“Embezzlement through creative accounting… … . You also gamble away from home as a hobby?”

The president’s face hardened.

But Jinwoo continued speaking without caring about the president’s expression.

“You know? The atmosphere right now.”

The current atmosphere is that Jin Woo-ryeong has been arrested on charges of murdering Baek Dong-ha, and public opinion toward Jin Baek is not good.

In this situation, if Jinbaek’s CEO is brought to court for corruption, he will be thrown in prison without any recourse.

As the president looked at Jinwoo with trembling eyes, Jinwoo’s voice continued.

“Please choose. Will you follow my instructions?”

***

That afternoon, it was Cho Hak-ju’s office.

Cho Hak-ju was receiving a phone call.

He is the president of Jinbaek Steel.

He was a man who stood by Cho Hak-ju and rose to the position of president.

The president was talking to Cho Hak-ju.

-They are threatening to find the shares that the candidate has in another person’s name while saying that he is not even a little kid.

“Okay, don’t worry about it and just relax.”

Cho Hak-ju shook his head as he ended the call.

“I left Oh Myung-hoon alone, and he threatened the head of the strategic planning department and stood in front of the executives?”

Jo Hak-ju laughed as if he found it ridiculous.

Because it was obvious what Jinwoo was after.

Jo Hak-ju was from Jinbaek, and now the world is in an uproar over the problem of Jin Woo-ryeong.

At such times, if news spreads that Cho Hak-ju is committing an illegal act using someone else’s name, small suspicions can turn into big flames.

It is clear that all the opposing candidates will rush towards Cho Hak-ju like a pack of dogs.

“Lee Jin-woo… … I used my head to the max, but there’s something you underestimated.”

Jinwoo held their corruption in his hands and tried to silence them through threats, but the plan eventually reached Jo Hakju’s ears.

That’s because the Jinbaek Group is under Jo Hak-ju’s command.

They will be Jo Hak-ju’s eyes and ears and convey Jin-woo’s plans in real time.

After finishing his thoughts, Cho Hak-ju immediately called his aide over.

And he ordered that all traces of the accounts he owned be erased.

A week later like that.

The aide who had come to see Cho Hak-ju again opened his mouth.

“It’s over. There is no connection between the fictitious account and you, candidate.”

A comfortable smile appeared on Cho Hak-ju’s lips.

The fictitious account issue was simply resolved, and there was no longer any corruption surrounding Cho Hak-ju.

He became a perfect candidate.

Now all we have to do is proceed without hesitation towards the Presidential Office.

That was when I thought about it.

Jiiing.

Jo Hak-ju’s cell phone vibrated.

The caller number is Jinwoo.

Jo Hak-ju snickered and put the phone to his ear.

“I said there would be nothing to see anymore.”

-That’s for me to decide.

“I’m sorry, but there’s nothing you can decide. You’re the one who has to follow orders.”

-Okay. You must have had a hard time erasing the traces of the account in another person’s name.

“Is that what you were calling to say?”

-Hey… … No.

Jinwoo’s voice was relaxed.

That leisureliness felt uncomfortable to Jo Hak-ju.

And then, Jinwoo’s voice continued.

-Turn on the television.

At that moment, the uneasiness in Jo Hak-ju’s heart turned into ominousness.

When Jinwoo speaks like this, there’s something there.

Cho Hak-ju turned his gaze urgently toward his aide.

“Turn on the television!”

When the aide picked up the remote control and turned on the television, Baek Cheol-yeong and Baek Seo-yeon appeared on the screen.

The two people were holding a press conference.

“what are you doing?”

That’s when Jo Hak-ju lets out a blank voice.

Baek Cheol-young’s voice heard on television.

– My siblings and I have confirmed that CEO Baek Yoon-seong is not the son of Chairman Baek Dong-ha, our father. So we are filing a lawsuit against CEO Baek Yoon-seong for non-existence of paternity and return of the reserved portion… … .

Jo Hak-ju opened his eyes wide.

I felt something was wrong.

Meanwhile, Jinwoo’s voice was heard from the other end of the phone.

-Who is Baek Yoon-seong’s father?
