The Youngest Son Of A Rich Family - Chapter 10
[010] Big change 2.
Now it’s time to give this wealthy old man the joy of a twist.
I opened my mouth to my mother who gave me a gentle smile.
“And mother.”
“Yes.”
“I want to be the president of a big company like my grandfather when I grow up.”
With these words, the expressions on the two men’s faces changed.
Chairman Jin’s expression, which had even trembled his lips, was like a Hahoe mask, and his mother couldn’t hide her embarrassed expression as if she hadn’t expected it at all.
“Uh heh heh. After all, bloodline is something that cannot be faked. There are a lot of cases where it comes out every other generation. Cancer, yes.”
The grandpa’s big-hearted laugh made the mother speechless. She must have been overwhelmed by the feeling that her son, who was young but had suddenly grown up, was trying to stop the two adults from quarreling.
“How are you? Emiya. Don’t you have anything to say now? Doesn’t our Do-joon dream of becoming a manager? hahaha.”
In an instant, the mother’s eyes widened to the size of a lantern, and the grandfather, who saw it, stopped laughing and closed his mouth as if embarrassed.
There was an awkward silence for a while.
Unable to bear the awkwardness, the mother jumped up from the sofa.
“father. Can I bring you another cup of tea?”
“That… yes. Oh, bring it to Do-jun’s room. I have something to say to my grandson…”
“Yes.”
My mother went to the kitchen, and my grandfather took my hand and went upstairs.
I pondered the cause of this suddenly changed atmosphere.
no way?
Is it because of one word, Amira?
Was it the first time that I called you by a normal daughter-in-law instead of you?
I wanted to believe that it was not, but the beginning of that awkwardness could not be found other than the name.
“Teachers let me go. Please take good care of our Dojun in the future.”
As the tutors bowed their heads and left the room, my grandfather took a quick look around my room and sat me on the edge of the bed.
“Do-joon.”
“yes. grandfather.”
“Do you remember what you said a few days ago?”
“yes? what…?”
“You know the story of three friends.”
“ah! Three powerful friends?”
“okay. That is the story.”
Of course I remember. That must be the reason why you came to me today.
Now, I first brought up the story of Il-no-Yang-Kim (一盧兩金), who will open the most exciting presidential race.
“As you said, I sent presents to those three friends. I mean to be friendly.”
“Oh did you?”
You mean you already handed over the slush fund? Acting is a man who is terribly quick.
“But this is going a little strangely. From today.”
Since the government’s unilateral declaration of surrender was not expected, it would be difficult to predict the swirling political situation.
“Hmm… the 2nd and 3rd place are working together to beat the 1st place.”
After a brief pause, my grandfather began to explain in a way that was easy for me to understand.
“Are you fighting?”
“okay. It would be nice if the three of them got along well, but they started fighting. so i’m in trouble Because now I have to choose just one.”
“By the way, Grandpa.”
“Yes, tell me.”
“Are those three people you just talking about trying to become president?”
“okay. They want to become class presidents for each other.”
“Then, if the 2nd and 3rd place team up and win, will they become the class president and vice-captain?”
“no. There is no vice-captain in the country. There is only the class president.”
“Ah then, first place will win.”
Chairman Jin’s eyes widened when he predicted the result so easily.
How seriously will this inspiration take my words?
“what? Why do you think so?”
“Why do the 2nd and 3rd ranks join forces when there is no vice-captain? Only one of them is the class president.”
“Can’t we join forces?”
“of course. The 3rd place isn’t much different from the 2nd place, but there’s no way they’ll just help without getting anything. 10th place, 20th place… No, the last place can help the first place, but the third place will never help.”
2nd and 3rd, YS DJ has spent his entire life wallowing in politics. Despite the tremendous persecution of the military dictatorship, they barely survived, and the long-awaited spring has finally arrived.
Considering their age, it is a spring that is hard to see again.
Also, one should not underestimate the human desire for power. The adjective of comrades in struggle, who followed them all their lives, is infinitely light in front of the desire for power.
It is Chairman Jin who can fully see through this fact.
However, it is easy to overlook this fact when one believes that the two Kims are working together.
If either of the two, respected leaders of the democratic movement and charismatic politicians who are not well-to-do, runs as the opposition candidate, they are in a position to beat Roh Tae-woo, the ruling party candidate.
The two have already expressed their intention to make concessions as if they were competing. DJ said in 1986, “I will not run for the next presidential election,” and Kim Young-sam also said, “If an amnesty or restoration takes place, I will do my best to make Mr. Kim Dae-jung the president.”
Most people believed in the goodwill and good manners of the two people. Unification is only a matter of time, but it is a situation that no one doubts.
However, if we leave open the possibility that the two are confrontational, President Jin, who knows the true nature of humans better than anyone else, will not miss this fact.
“Two noblemen turn their backs…”
There is no need to talk about the future in length and detail.
View from another angle and doubt.
Isn’t this a person who will understand enough if you throw this seed?
After thinking about it for a while, he stroked my hair.
“How can you be so smart, my baby?”
Grandpa’s expression was that of complete satisfaction.
***
“Father?”
“yes. He is talking to Do-jun right now.”
“I’m sure you didn’t come here to check your studies.”
“That’s…”
Jin Yoon-gi gritted his teeth when his wife cautiously told him what had happened today.
“What does a ten-year-old know! That’s what he answered because he noticed his grandfather. Is he normal?”
“Leave it alone for today. Let’s make your father feel better.”
Feeling a little different, Jin Yoon-gi tilted his head as he looked at his wife.
“What? you’re kinda weird Did you hear what your father said?”
“That’s not it…”
She couldn’t bear to tell the truth.
The first title that the father-in-law calls after marriage. Emiya-
My pride wouldn’t allow me to say that I almost burst into tears because of that.
“Anyway, today’s nonsense. Please.”
At his wife’s earnest request, Jin Yoon-gi nodded.
Jin Yoon-gi waited for his father, who was obsessed with his grandson, to come down.
He didn’t pay attention to himself and his wife, but only Do-jun, the youngest, was quite cute. However, it is not enough to say that her recent appearance is cute.
According to his wife’s words a moment ago, it seems that he intends to raise him to participate in group management. In addition, I was surprised to hear that he had even promised a stake.
Chairman Jin handed over the shares little by little when his children and grandchildren turned 20 years old. The more I liked it, the more I passed on, and stopped when I was disappointed.
Jin Yun-gi did not receive even one share. I thought I would never receive it in the future.
It must be a huge change to give him a stake if he raises Do-joon well.
At this moment, a sound interrupted Jin Yoongi’s thoughts.
“Are you here?”
“ah. yes. father.”
Chairman Jin was holding Do-jun’s hand tightly.
“Do-joon. Grandpa wants to go back now. Study hard…”
“Your grandfather. goodbye.”
Chairman Jin stroked my hair once more and winked at my father.
“You see me for a second.”
Jin Yoon-gi went out to the garden to look at his son and father alternately.
Chairman Jin’s secretaries spotted the two and bowed their heads.
“I’m going to head office, so prepare for departure. Preparing for the board of directors meeting. Ah, tell them to gather only the core affiliates.”
The secretaries moved quickly when they heard that it was a meeting of the presidents.
Jin Yoon-gi stood there, avoiding his father’s gaze.
“I don’t know if you know it, but Do-joon is not an ordinary child. He looks exactly like me.”
“I couldn’t find it, so why?”
I didn’t forget my wife’s request, so I didn’t ask like an argument and spoke as politely as possible.
“He is very possessive and quick to judge. One insight in particular is staggering. To the extent that it can’t be seen as that of a child. He’s a natural born guy.”
“Is Dojunie very possessive? You’re looking at it wrong. Unbecoming of a second son, he is the kind of guy who yields to his older brother in everything. Although I am mature, I am not greedy.”
“That is proof that you are not good enough. You don’t know what kind of kid he is even though you’re watching right next to him. He looks like a pitiful guy…”
It was a word that could have provoked anger, but Jin Yoon-gi held it in.
Because I decided to listen to my wife faithfully today.
“Are you thinking of group management?”
“That’s a matter of Do-joon’s ability. I’m just giving you a chance.”
“Aren’t you still a child? I don’t know how things will change in the future, so maybe I’m being too hasty?”
“Do-joon also said that the future hope is the president. Of course, as you grow up, you might become an immature 3rd generation chaebol. That’s why it’s nagging to watch carefully and grow well.”
There is no need to refute the textbook saying that children should be raised well.
Jin Yoongi nodded his head obediently.
“Send it to me once a week from now on. You don’t want to miss out on the fun of watching how they grow.”
Jin Yoon-ki, who was always sulky and squeamish, showed a polite attitude, so Chairman Jin also had a gentle expression.
“Don’t go away.”
After patting his son on the shoulder, Chairman Jin headed for the headquarters.
***
Presidents Meeting.
Chairman Jin of Sunyang Group rarely attended regular meetings of the presidents.
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki, the eldest son, presided over the presidents’ meeting, and Chairman Jin was only briefed on the results.
66-year-old chairman Jin is empowering his 46-year-old eldest son to hand over the group.
It was the same situation as when Taejong stepped down as Sangwang and Sejong took over the kingship and was in charge of political affairs.
Just as Taejong did not hand over the military power, it was the same that Chairman Jin did not hand over the group personnel rights.
The fact that Chairman Jin attended the president’s meeting means that he is dealing with an extremely important agenda.
At this time, the Sunyang Group had a total of 48 affiliates and annual sales of 24 trillion won, and it was difficult to imagine what it would look like 30 years later.
Of course, it remains unchanged that it is the largest company in the country.
Chairman Jin Yang-cheol silently watched as the presidents of about 20 key affiliates whispered to the people next to them.
They also have their own information networks.
Alumni are people from all walks of life, and there are as many acquaintances as they have lived. You will have absorbed all kinds of information, and you have to put it all together to come to a final conclusion.
Of course, that decision was entirely up to Chairman Jin.
