Chapter 792 – The Junk Market
Corporate operations.
Just being good at business is not enough.
‘Especially in Korea.’
We have to pay attention to the government.
As the business grows, it becomes inevitable.
Some things require licensing.
With the person who does it.
“Soju?”
“Soju is a bit…”
“I don’t think that would suit the President’s taste.”
What kind of relationship do you have?
It is no exaggeration to say that the next five years will be decided.
‘It’s a company.’
It is a huge organization.
Thousands or tens of thousands of people belong.
I can’t fully understand what’s inside.
Even after reading the report, it doesn’t make any sense.
“It would be a shame not to have a drink when the snacks are this good.”
“No, huh? Uh, CEO Lee.”
“”…””
“You know something! Actually… You should have a drink at a place like this.”
“”… ?””
That’s why it depends.
It’s about the impression and behavior when you meet in person.
‘It’s primitive, though.’
It still occupies a large part in human society.
Even in Korean history.

You can find examples.
Even the head of a large company becomes a fool when he gets out of sight.
Even in the 21st century, it is not much different.
There is only a difference in degree.
“You’re not drinking water like this, right? It’s transparent… You know. You should drink that~.”
There is no harm in showing it clearly.
In order to have good relationships with people.
‘You have to tell that person what he wants.’
A story you want to tell.
It’s an embarrassing story to bring up first.
People who do it are always happy to see it.
“Your Excellency is a sucker, right?”
“Of course it’s red. What’s below 20 degrees? Is it soju? What do you drink?”
“These days, MZs drink something new.”
“Wow, this guy doesn’t know much about soju.”
“”…””
I like alcohol.
I also like drinking.
We investigated whether he had such a background.
‘I’m not even a politician.’
I am not familiar with this type of position.
This is what it means to face businesspeople as president.
A story about alcohol that came out just in time.
I can’t help but feel welcome.
It can spark a conversation.
“The person who is the head of a large company drinks soju and… Huh? He has humanity. This guy.”
“I’m a self-made man, so it hasn’t been long since I started making money.”
“Oh, really?”
It makes me interested.
It also means interest in the food market.
‘It continues.’
This is why I attend dinner parties like this.
There’s no way the heads of other large companies don’t know.
I just can’t do it.
I am staring in fascination at the sudden story of soju.
“What is this…, If it were a private event, I should have already opened five bottles of soju?”
Haha!”
“Your Excellency, your sense of humor is unrivaled.”
“I’m being serious, tsk.”
Why?
It’s not a familiar story.
There is no way they would ever drink something like soju.
Even more so the president.
I know better than anyone else what happens if you do it carelessly.
“Just because you’re drunk, having a drink or two isn’t necessarily a bad thing.”
“That’s right. This guy knows something. Huh?”
“That’s too much praise.”
“But… I heard something somewhere, huh? They said CEO Lee keeps selling Korean stocks.”
Either in a good sense or in a bad sense.
Being friendly with politicians.
‘It’s a double-edged sword.’
Daughter-in-law of a chaebol family!
I’m not an announcer for nothing.
It is rare to be the daughter of a politician.
It has been quite a long time since the business world distanced itself from politics.
We won’t know unless the regime changes.
“What are you doing these days? The economy is not doing well, and the stock market is not doing well. Shouldn’t someone like CEO Lee provide strength?”
It is bound to change.
In Korean politics, it is customary for the two parties to take turns.
There may be retaliation from the opposing party.
You will be locked in a cell like Ash Dragon.
Gulp!
Heads of large corporations.
It’s worth swallowing the tension.
Although I am not happy with the current situation.
“I’m hesitating because they keep making gamjatang, bequeathing money, and dividing property.”
“What? Boil gamjatang?”
“There are people who make the stock market go crazy.”
“I guess I’ll have to scold you for a couple of bottles of soju.”
“I know the house I’m good at.”
“Oh, really?”
“”…””
Such risk.
Conversely, what is used is a creature called an investor.
‘Walking a tightrope within an appropriate line.’
You can make maximum profits.
There is no reason not to do it.
“A restaurant that does gamjatang well boils pork backbone, beef, and radish to give it a deep, savory flavor.”
“Wow, I’m drooling.”
“If you look at some houses, they try to make it taste rich with Miwon and Dasida. You don’t want to go to those houses again, do you?”
“That’s natural!”
Explain at the level of the president.
The ecosystem of the stock market.
This is an important part.
Because I understand the company as an individual.
“I ended up selling my stock because I kept seeing them frugal with materials. I was actually a bit frustrated at that time because even when I asked them to fix it, I got criticized in return.”
“Ha~, I understand how CEO Lee feels.”
High-ranking people.
In most cases, there is a lack of understanding of the industry.
Listen to what people close to you say and make a decision.
To become that person.
‘It’s necessary.’
It makes a good impression on the president.
Human relationships are not that big of a deal.
“No, well. There were a lot of stories in the news about people selling out the country and being traitors.”
“I was attacked because I said the right things.”
“Ha~ I did that too.”
“While watching the news, there were many parts that I really sympathized with.”
Common topics.
Common goal.
The first thing is to find a consensus.
First, our hearts must become close.
And also about the practical part.
“If only this part is resolved, we can buy not just 10 or 20 trillion, but hundreds of trillions. I’m not bragging, but there are many people who follow me and invest, so we can expect an even bigger ripple effect.”
There is a need to appeal.
Human relationships and consensus may also be meaningful.
‘It’s just an opportunity.’
He is the president.
He is the head of a country.
There is no way you can’t distinguish between public and private life.
Advantage.
It is to let people know that it is helpful to national affairs.
“If that happens, then what? There’s nothing more to wish for. Just hearing this makes your shoulders feel bigger?”
“I don’t say empty words.”
“This friend says this, what do you think? Wouldn’t it be good to get a lot of investment?”
” Haha…””
As a business person, I don’t like it.
Why?
Because we have to betray our shareholders.
‘That.’
This is one of the few opportunities to turn it around.
The current government must be out of its mind.
High inflation and high interest rates.
Korea is particularly hit hard.
It is a country that imports all raw materials.
“For my part, I hope that our Republic of Korea will become one. I am carefully thinking about whether our people will also benefit if the President looks into this aspect.”
We have to overcome it somehow.
Only then can the approval rating be raised.
‘Such needs.’
It satisfies.
Sprinkle with sweet stories that will make you drool.
Illiterate.
Non-politicians do not have much economic knowledge.
Flirting is a simple matter.
“The young man has great insight. Huh? He deserves to be successful at such a young age.”
“Our country is actually very competitive. The only problem is that MSG is overused.”
“For Gamjatang to become a regular customer, you have to add a generous amount of ingredients~.”
“That’s right.”
“So…, Huh? Where is the best gamjatang restaurant?”
“Yes?”
At least there is nothing bad.
The highest decision-maker in Korea is the president.
It has direct and indirect influence on all issues.
He has a lot of power.
“Okay, let’s go to the second round quickly!”
Gamjatang was hard to resist
* * *
Plan.
The pressure through the government audit was clearly effective.
As a company, there is no choice but to shrink.
Not only will it cause disruption to business.
“Green Spear, Kakao, Lupine, and Uranus are also reducing their external activities. They are also actively cooperating with the government’s request for an investigation. It seems that it is only a matter of time before the remnants of the previous government era are erased.”
Public opinion is also getting worse.
I’m probably getting called out because I did something bad.
Even the media pushes it that way.
It is a way for the government to strengthen discipline.
“So?”
“Huh? I guess things are going well…”
“Then what is this newspaper? This newspaper!”
There is only one exception.
Chief of Staff Jang Jae-woo deserves to be furious.
Understand!
They throw it away as if to show off.
Newspaper.
The person proudly listed on the first page is.
〈1 trillion won woman.〉
〈PrefaceThe two secret faces of spring.〉
〈What is the true face hidden behind the bright mask? 〉
It’s not Lee Chan-wook.
A woman is lowering her head with a glum expression.
“Well, that’s it… The history of outside director Seo Moon Bom, who appeared as a proxy, seems to be attracting attention. Since she has a background in the broadcasting industry, it seems that excessive attention is being drawn to her…”
That scene.
It was very concerning to some people.
It is becoming a national topic.
‘Such a loach-like bastard.’
The repertoire was perfect enough to rob Lee Chan-wook.
The plan was to push things from beginning to end.
I couldn’t even try.
The contents of the government audit also ended up being strangely twisted.
“I attended the businessman’s dinner party…”
“I heard.”
“It looks like the President was very satisfied. He is a close friend.”
“I heard it!”
And I entered the country a few days apart.
I made a good impression on the President.
‘I know how to let them do what they want.’
Such a situation.
I feel like it’s not possible.
The thoughts of the president and his aides do not necessarily coincide.
The current president is a non-politician.
On the other hand, aides have a long career in politics.
“Don’t hesitate by any means possible. Plan something that will embarrass that bastard. Lose the president’s trust!”
I follow the ideas of the party more than the president.
The ruling party is currently sharpening its sword.
I have been suffering for the past five years.
Now that we have won the presidential election, it is a golden opportunity for revenge.
“Then what about this?”
“What?”
“You are making an absolutely impossible request. If you can’t do it… If nothing else, trust will definitely fall.”
“Oh?”
Companies that were attached to the previous regime.
We need to establish discipline by imposing sanctions on each individual.
There can be no exceptions.
Food markets do that too.
In the ears of Jang Jae-woo, who was waiting.
“I am asking you to cooperate in controlling the price. If you are caught, you can credit the government, and if you are not caught, you can be held accountable.”
I hear a tempting plan.
