The Youngest Son Of A Rich Family - Chapter 204
[204 ] Positioning 1
“It’s necessary, but not this time. We are still far away.”
“What is far?”
“To have a close relationship with a politician. Now that my uncle has come down from the mayor’s seat, no one knows who the current politician is. I will meet with them when I need financial power, not money.”
“Tsk tsk, do you still think you’re a child?”
Grandpa clicked his tongue and looked disapproving.
“No matter how hard you try to deny it, you’ve already been labeled a 3-year-old. A worthy successor in charge of Sunyang’s finances. No one will regard you as a child who has been in the media several times.”
You misunderstood this. That’s not the reason…….
“Even companies that are at the bottom of the rankings in the business world unknowingly poke here and there to try to connect with the election camp. It’s not that you’re the only one falling for me… I’m not trying to profit from it. Shouldn’t we avoid taking a loss?”
I couldn’t elaborate, so I nodded my head.
“yes. My thoughts were short. Let’s meet the people from both camps.”
“Dipping my feet in the poop just came quickly. Be polite in moderation and familiarize yourself with it.”
“All right. But today, I’m not here to talk about this. I’m here to say hello to how you’re doing…
” haha.”
“yes?”
“Did you think we could have conversations between ordinary grandparents? The grandson is worried about his grandfather’s health, and the grandfather is anxious to see if his grandson is doing well. Every time we meet, we just worry about the company. haha.”
I knew from the expression on my grandfather’s face that he was not joking.
The way to be filial to your grandfather is not to ask after him and worry about his health. The best thing to do is to talk about work and let them feel that the manager’s face is still beating.
“Then, shall we talk about something else?”
“huh? what……?”
“Daehyun Motor seems to be pushing hard. When our new car came out, I got information that the other side was also trying to set up a counter fire with a new car they prepared. It looks like it will stick.”
“You will lose.”
He made up his mind without hesitation.
“is that so?”
“How much would you have expected? How do you beat an ordinary 4-seater with a sports type without popularity?”
“Still, I suddenly feel like I want to press it. Is there any way?”
“Are you trying to keep me from getting bored?”
One thing this old man notices is…….
“No. Would I do this if it were so bad?”
“done. Do you think I forgot what you said? My forgetfulness has gotten worse, but I don’t forget about company work. It is not a car that sells well, but a car that you want to own the moment you see a proper car. Didn’t you say that was the purpose? You say you look far away and go one step at a time?”
Seeing that you remember things that I forgot about to this extent, I wondered if I was worrying about my health for nothing.
“I can’t win in the sales battle anyway. But……”
“It shouldn’t be pushed aside in topicality, right?”
“okay. Whether it’s Daehyun or our Sunyang, both companies can’t make money with compact cars.”
I wanted to correct that it was HW, not Sunyang, but I held back. Since the company was given as a gift, it should be an affiliate of Sunyang forever.
“In Daehyeon, the position of compact cars is just to have an assortment. Do you see more than that?”
“yes. I see it as the first step in establishing the identity of Sunyang Motors.”
“okay. Then, the compact cars are not the main players, but the supporting actors…… No, there are only those guys who are doing something with red evil in this World Cup, right? It was even reported by the foreign press.”
“yes.”
“Make me a guy like that. Even though the World Cup is over, those red T-shirts still sell.”
Exactly what I thought.
Although he is a grandfather well over eighty, his senses are as good as that of a young marketer. Were you worried for nothing?
* * *
“Is 2 billion a burden?”
“It’s a burden, but what can I do? Allotments must be filled.”
“okay. It was decided to hand over 15 billion in the first round. I decided that because it seemed like the assortment would fit roughly if you did 2 billion.”
I think I know where the roughly 2 billion allocation came from.
It was divided by the amount of my 10% stake in Sunyang Group.
“By the way, uncle. As I told you last time, how to make slush funds at my former company…….”
“I heard that there are more people, so you are the perfect partner. haha.”
Vice-Chairman Vibrator showed an absurd smile.
“The money you found in Indonesia must be 100 billion won? 2 billion is only 2%. Can’t you take that off too?”
“Ah, I heard that the money needs to be turned around one more time. You should be somewhere in South America by now.”
“Is Oh Se-hyun like that?”
“yes.”
“The money I need to deliver to this place is urgent…”
There shouldn’t be any traces of my money being delivered. This illegal campaign fund will be revealed someday and someone must take responsibility.
Obviously, the two uncles would choose someone from among the executives and place the blame on them.
But I can’t.
Having been in charge of an affiliate for just over two years, the dissatisfaction of working under a young guy is greater than loyalty. There wasn’t enough time to build loyalty enough to appear before the prosecutor’s office on my behalf.
I still have to protect myself. There shouldn’t be any scratches.
“If you work at Sunyang Securities for two or three days, you can easily collect 2 billion won. Would you like to try it?”
They raise the closing price by placing a lot of orders to buy stocks at a few percent higher just before the market closes. I don’t know why, but when the stock price rises, ant investors jump at it, and when the stock price rises like that, they take profits.
If you do this for just one month, you can easily get tens of billions of dollars, and the ant investors will take over all the losses.
Two or three days of work means this.
When I saw the strangely sparkling eyes of the vibrator vice president, I was horrified.
“Oh, yes. I see what you mean. You can prepare for that.”
Election funds are also illegal, but the source of the funds is more problematic. He has hundreds of billions of personal wealth, but he never digs into his pocket. Make sure to take out the company money and deliver it.
When political funds become the subject of investigation, the prosecution focuses on embezzlement and breach of trust while hiding the words “politics” and “presidential election.”
And it ends with a suitable servant from a chaebol conglomerate voluntarily appearing.
Does the vibrator vice president want me to get a lot of indelible grime under my fingernails as soon as possible?
“If you prepare the funds, how will you deliver them?”
I wrote down a phone number on a note and held it out.
“You can tell this friend. I’ll take care of the rest.”
As he stood up, he smiled softly.
“Do-joon.”
“yes.”
“Welcome to this world. Should I say I’m sorry? haha.”
Not yet. Ditching should be postponed until later.
* * *
“You must completely block it. So that they never track me down.”
Director Woo Byeong-jun, who received a notepad with a phone number written on it, looked at me alternately with a sports bag full of bundles of 10,000 won bills.
“Is that all money?”
“yes. 2 billion.”
“If the prosecution starts an investigation, they will not pursue the sender. Track the flow of money. I’m going to search through the company account and the manager’s personal account and guess the number of 2 billion. It doesn’t matter who the errand boy is.”
“It’s money you won’t find there. It’s money from a few cushions in an American account. There is no sign of me.”
“Ah…….”
Just as I don’t know much about this person, managing director Woo Byung-jun doesn’t seem to know much about me either. I guess Grandpa didn’t explain in detail.
“I guess it’s personal money?”
“yes. You can’t touch company money. It’s not urgent and it’s not a big deal.”
“Two billion isn’t a lot of money…? It sounds like you have a lot more money than I guess.”
“Are you curious?”
When asked with a smile, he also smiled softly.
“no. I’m just relieved that I won’t lose my salary.”
Did I feel a little more comfortable seeing him even joke like this?
“Don’t worry about people. The courier will think of the money as coming from a completely different place. And…”
Byung-Jun Woo glanced at me.
“Please speak. Is there anything wrong with you?”
“Who delivered this money to the officetel?”
It’s meticulous. Are you checking that out?
“It was sent by someone I trust. are you okay.”
“Didn’t that trustworthy person bring it in person?”
“yes.”
“Please let our children do this in the future. A trustworthy person and his or her staff are different. You can open your mouth anytime.”
“Remember.”
Where does this caution come from? Is this person special? Are Sunyang Security employees who work alongside their uncles basic to be this prudent?
I was curious, but didn’t say it out loud.
Director Woo called the staff and moved the bag.
“I will contact you when it is over.”
When managing director Woo Byung-jun left, the tension was relieved.
That person is trustworthy, but somehow uncomfortable.
I’m going to catch me for a day and drink a lot of alcohol. I can’t say that I’m mine while leaving the wall in the middle of the way.

A chilly wind started to blow, but the hot heat still didn’t go away in Korea.
This presidential election is really hot.
As well as tossing and turning, all sorts of issues came out and shook both camps.
The appearance of a dark horse with the legend of their child’s military exemption World Cup semifinals, the ruling party lawmakers starting to sway the party’s candidacy, and so on.
Even President Dae-ho Cho was shaken ahead of the official launch of the new car.
“News is only politics. I wonder if anyone would be interested in advertising our car.”
“It is fortunate that our target audience is young people who are not interested in politics.”
“Politics is a problem, but Daehyun is also a problem. The news is that they are determined to trample on us and attack us.”
“I heard there are mini cars coming out there too?”
“okay. The name is < Click >. They say it comes out cheaper than us by more than 3 million won…….”
“Three hundred?”
This means that the launch price is in the upper half of 6 million won. What’s left after selling a compact car, so they’re selling it at that price? I’m releasing it with the determination to lose money.
President Cho Dae-ho’s words that he is trying to kill us are not rude.
I was shaken for a moment, but I got my heart together.
“president. Let go of our competitiveness.”
“huh? What are you saying?”
“Isn’t it a car made to sell a lot, or a car developed to make money? As initially planned, you only think about the goal of selling 7,000 units by next year.”
“I’m saying this because they whine about how difficult it is to achieve on the field. If a competitive car hits like that, it’s bound to be pushed back. And…”
Judging by the stiff expression, there is another weakness.
“They said the performance didn’t come out as expected.”
“Enough to be a problem?”
“no. It is not coming out as much as consumers expect.”
Joe sighed.
“It looks like it will run fast with insane output, but isn’t it a compact car anyway? Consumers keep forgetting about the ‘sports look’.”
“It also means that the design has gone well.”
“okay. Performance that doesn’t match the design. It may be forgiven in Korea, but it is difficult in other countries. It’s because there aren’t just a couple of outstanding cars.”
After all, it is a matter of technology.
It is impossible for a company with a short history to stand shoulder to shoulder with the strong in tradition. However, foreign consumers with a wide range of choices do not consider our short history.
Looking at CEO Dae-ho Cho’s expression full of worries, I decided to do one thing. If the history is short, wouldn’t it be possible to reduce the gap by taking special tutoring?
“president. Shall we buy a company?”
“huh? Are you buying the company?”
“European or Japanese companies. We buy a company that makes supercars and make the technology our own.”
“Is a supercar maker a toy company? Would you like to buy it?”
President Cho, who was about to wave his hand as if telling me not to say anything, looked closely at my face and opened his mouth.
“You’re not kidding! Are you really going to buy it?”
