There is a thing called family management.

It means management consisting of one or several families that are related by blood.

The GL group, which other conglomerates don’t like, had a very unique structure among them.

In general, even if blood ties are far from direct, cousins are at best, the founder of GL Group looked after the entire Ko family from the beginning.

Not only cousins, but also five, six, seven, eight, and nine cousins.

Thanks to that, there were even jokes circulating that if it wasn’t for Mr. Go, he couldn’t even dream of registering as a first-time vendor.

The Ko cine, who used to be a family of scholars with a long history, has transformed into a chaebol family.

“I may be rude, but may I ask you one thing?”

Koh Sang-moon nodded at my question.

“Didn’t the manager solidify his position as the successor? I know that his older brother Sang-hoon Koh, the executive director, hasn’t woken up yet…”

“My brother is seriously ill, but he is still alive. As long as he is alive, my father and the elders of my family will never raise my hand.”

“Is that even when there is no road?”

“Because that’s our family’s insistence.”

“In that situation, can it be considered that the manager is struggling somehow?”

“That’s right. I don’t know about my father, but if I can convince the adults in my family, I’ll be able to keep this position.”

You want to get rid of the temporary label.

I needed inyx for that.

It seems that the responsibility as a growth engine and Koh Sang-moon’s personal desires are mixed, but in my eyes, the desire seemed bigger.

Maybe it’s natural to grow up as a member of a chaebol family, I don’t know.

“But you must have been very heartbroken because things went wrong.”

“No. What should I do with the outcome? I have to accept it. If you become regretful about the irreversible, you may lose something bigger.”

“Is it bigger?”

“There can be many things. To borrow a principled phrase, it can be said that it is time to focus on the present, or personally, it could be Jin Yu-seong.”

“……”

Why does this person overestimate me so much?

I don’t know where the hell am I looking.

“Oh, don’t you wonder what’s wrong with that slush fund?”

Koh Sang-moon looked at his sister and said.

It’s like you know who your sister is.

Maybe you noticed?

My sister and I don’t look alike.

“Yes, I’m curious!”

Oh my, my sister must have been curious about it.

“The money I put in a secret Swiss account disappeared one day. Without knowing it, neither mouse nor bird.”

“Did you disappear?”

“Yes, secretary. But it wasn’t stolen. Someone made a legitimate withdrawal. Someone who doesn’t know who it is.”

“Can’t we just check the withdrawal records at the bank?”

“Haha, such banks do not disclose information about deposits and withdrawals because they trade anonymously. There was a customer who decided to withdraw money, but before that, someone stole it like a ghost.”

“……”

“You know what’s more fun?”

“What’s fun?”

“Someone left money in the account. Only $53.”

“53? Why?”

“I left a message. Ha ha ha.”

“What does 53 mean?”

“Do you know the pager number? If you are the secretary’s age, I think you would know.”

“I know. 486, 8282, etc. But I don’t know about 53.”

“It’s the number of beeps used in foreign countries. 53 stands for the number of letters of thank you. The criminal took the money and left a thank-you message. Hahahaha.”

Whoops, David, why the hell did you leave your tail behind!

“Sangmu Koh, if you’re suspicious of me, you’ve misunderstood. I’m not.”

“I know. Jin Yu-seong must have stayed in Australia all the time.”

“Did you do my research?”

“No, I didn’t. If Jin Yu-seong had figured out how to withdraw money, how would he have asked someone to do it? That’s a whopping 200 million dollars. And I would have doubted if he had a subordinate who could entrust $200 million to him, but Jin Yu-seong was only a workaholic until then, and he would have been concerned about the background investigation because he had suffered from me. I thought it wasn’t.”

The liver is strangely tingling.

I’m not saying it’s wrong, but I don’t know if it’s because I was stabbed.

“Then how did you get the money?”

“It was quiet.”

“Yes?”

What else is this?

“It’s just that I looked hateful again. Thanks to that, I’ve been removed from the list of preferred bidders for INIX, and I’m having a lot of trouble with tax investigations and various legal sanctions.”

“……ha ha ha.”

Wow, that’s a pear.

Even after that big plan is self-inflicted, his mentality does not waver, and instead of rectifying it, he just ignores it.

Obviously, the person in front of me seems to be a human with a different mental state than me.

Is it because he’s a chaebol?

“I have a question for you, sir.”

While I was stunned for a while, my sister opened her mouth again.

“Tell me, secretary.”

“If it was such an important slush fund, wouldn’t the group be able to replenish it?

“Haha, I don’t know if I was the president. But from my point of view, it’s a huge amount. And I don’t know about the secretary, but the slush fund is not the money our group prepared.”

“Yes? No?”

“We acted as a washing machine. So that black money becomes white money. You can think of it this way. A high-ranking politician took the blood tax and put it in a washing machine called GL Group, cleaned it and put it in his pocket.”

“Why are you making it so complicated?”

“The high-ranking politician is from the business world, so he never takes money from companies.”

“……”

The older sister frowned and did not open her mouth.

You probably don’t understand.

Actually, so do I.

Whether it’s getting money from a company or having the company do the laundry, isn’t it the same as getting entangled in dirty work?

If you don’t want to find your weakness, do the laundry yourself in the first place.

“I’m sure it needs a little more explanation. Just think of it like this. When you go to school, are you there?”

“……?”

“For example, there are two Iljin. One asks a certain student to bring money. He tells his mother to lie to her that it is money to buy as a reference or to deduct the school fees. Another Iljin orders a bread shuttle. Iljin takes it out of his pocket and gives it to him. How does it feel?”

“At first glance, they seem serious, but they all look the same.”

“Haha, that’s what the high-ranking politician thought. He told me to bring some money, but later the student’s mother or teacher found out that he’d be in trouble. So I ordered the bread shuttle first. If you are obedient, when you ask me to buy bread again later, you can give me 100 won and ask me to leave 1,000 won.”

The head is nodded.

It was also a kind of test.

To check whether Koh Sang-moon listens well or not.

“Then you’re saying that Koh Sang-mu told Iljin that he lost it while buying bread?”

“Hahaha, that’s right. Thanks to you, I’m getting beaten up.”

“Is that ok? At school, that kind of thing usually turns out to be bullying.”

“It’s probably bullying, but I’m used to it.”

“……?”

“Because I left the FKI in the past due to the GL semiconductor case and I was bullied. Our group learned how to live while being beaten up by saying that the one who was beaten down was a good fit.”

Is this the power of the chaebol?

The GL group overcame all the difficulties and climbed to the second place in the business world.

Again, I thought it was great.

“But not long ago, Iljin made a suggestion. It hurts my head a bit.”

proposal? what else is that?

If you see a foul smell, you shouldn’t listen to it.

“What is that?”

While I was thinking, my sister opened her mouth again.

Hey, I guess I’ll have to gag it from now on.

“He said that if I help him with his work, he will turn a blind eye to his past mistakes and offer various privileges.”

“I couldn’t even run the bread errand properly, so you want me to help?”

“Haha, the secretary-sama’s personality is angry. Yes, help. We can’t run errands for bread, but we study well.”

“……?”

“With this analogy, have you heard of the resource diplomacy that the government is promoting?”

“Yes. Since Korea is a country with no resources, I think I saw in the news that the government is directly promoting overseas resource development.”

“Yes, they told me to help with that. For reference, it is a large-scale project with an estimated investment of 40 trillion won.”

40’s are a lot of fun.

“Anyway, it’s necessary for our country, so if we join the GL group, the people won’t like it either. Why is it a headache?”

“That’s right. As the secretary said, it’s essential for our country…”

Koh Sang-moon smiled bitterly.

I felt that there was something hidden behind the appearance.

“Do you have any other motives like the racehorse?”

“I expect it will. I don’t know the details because I haven’t accepted it yet.”

“Can’t we just do it the way we did back then? Once is difficult, twice will be easy.”

“I wouldn’t believe him for that. He never gave a loser a chance.”

“Do you see it as a trap rather than an opportunity?”

“Maybe. Maybe just use it.”

“Nevertheless, it seems that there is a bait that makes it difficult to reject the proposal, seeing that you are still thinking about it?”

“It’s a proposal related to group succession.”

Do you really want to keep that position?

Even knowing it’s a trap, it shakes.

“It’s a pretentious word, but shouldn’t succession just wait?”

“Until your brother dies?”

“……”

It’s a little bit like saying it with a pinch.

“Modern medicine is too advanced to wait indefinitely. At the current level of medicine, it is not even possible to extend your brother’s life by two or thirty years. You can live until the end of your life in a vegetative state that only breathes.”

“Will the shareholders just watch over them until then?”

“The grown-ups of the family will be like that. And, crucially, you have a son who is in elementary school. If you only live 20 years, that son, your nephew, will become the heir of the group.”

This is not the succession to the throne of the Joseon Dynasty…

What kind of 21st-century Suyang Daegun and Danjong do you seem to see?

‘Looking at what you’re saying, sooner or later the sweet water will run out and you’ll be in disgrace.’

I got up thinking that I had heard everything I had to say.

I didn’t want to associate with them anymore.

“Secretary Kim, stop waking up.”

“…Huh? No, yes. I see.”

At that moment, Sang-Moon Ko stood up to see off and held out his hand.

“Thank you for listening to me.”

“No. It was interesting. Personally, I can be a bum, but I’m grateful for being honest about it.”

I reached out my other hand and shook his hand.

“Mr. Jin Yu-seong.”

“yes?”

“If you can’t be under me, consider standing next to me. As you know well, GL Group is currently ranked second in the business world with a market capitalization of over 70 trillion won. It will help.”

I know it too well.

How great is that power.

“I’ll think about it.”

“Haha, looking forward to the third meeting. I hope we can build a good relationship then.”

Well, is there another chance for that?
