The Youngest Son Of A Rich Family - Chapter 315
[315] The number of exchanges. 1
“Chief. Didn’t I hear that wrong? That’s Hong So-young from the Hanseong Ilbo, right?”
“okay. The conglomerates…. It’s a fact that everyone knows that they live as a married couple. To a husband, the existence of a wife is just a breeding ground for giving birth to a son who will inherit the company, and to a woman, a conglomerate husband is a halo that makes her listen to her wife.”
In front of the director who was going through this, the reporters of the Ministry of Social Affairs had an embarrassing expression.
It’s not about the level of hypocrisy, it’s a reverse. Can’t handle the aftermath
“Don’t be scared. I am responsible.”
“What do you mean take responsibility? Chief, can you…?”
When a salaryman bumps into a superior, it is when the mental preparation is over.
“Are you quitting the company? Where did you get the scout offer from?”
A reporter lowered his voice and asked.
“I’m getting a job in April next year. You guys now put straws on me too. Before I move, I will issue an appointment to the Political Department.”
As Director Cho smiled and said, the reporters’ eyes widened.
“Yeouido?”
“okay. Park Joo-pil and I were dropped. A month is a long time here. Hehe.”
“I’m sorry. Chief. This kind of celebration…”
“Is that why you came to see Chairman Hong? Aren’t you going? If that was the case, there would be no reason to rob Hong So-young.”
Reporters wondered who Cho’s sponsor was, but Cho did not reveal. It is not yet time.
“You will find out later. Anyway, get your direction right. Even if you guys grab Hong So-young by the hair, there won’t be any damage. Did you understand?”

“I understand that our deal ended yesterday… but do you have anything left to say?”
“As I get older, holding hands is more comfortable than fighting.”
Park Man-seong, the chief editor of the Hanseong Ilbo, suddenly appeared and showed a generous smile like a grandfather next door.
“Aren’t we holding hands? Am I the only one mistaken?”
“You have two hands.”
He has
two hands .
The person Park Joo-pil wants to avoid fighting with is the person I need to reach out to again.
This man is not ordinary.
“The chief must be busy. Would that be possible?”
“Isn’t it the family business that takes precedence over the family? It is not something to insist on.”
“If things go well, there is no reason for me to refuse.”
“Then I will know that you agreed and proceed.”
I felt it again as I watched his back as he quickly left. he is a smart old man

“This friend…! Are you saying that now?”
Chairman Hong of the Hanseong Ilbo was dumbfounded when Joo-Pil Park, who had not been seen all day, suddenly appeared and said something nonsensical.
“Fix it and think about it. Has our Hansung Ilbo ever been on the side of the losers?”
“so? A fight that Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki loses?”
“It has been like that from the beginning. When Chairman Jin Yang-cheol puts his youngest grandson first, the victory or defeat may have been decided. The side defending the one remaining castle after everything was taken away, and the side besieging that castle and pouring out attacks every day. Jin Do-jun is in an advantageous situation.”
“This is my friend! That’s my daughter! You mean the in-laws’ house.”
“So?”
“what?”
When Joo-Pil Park said something insignificant, Chairman Hong was full of energy. No matter how much it is someone else’s housework, it can’t be said so easily.
“Do you think So-yeong will play the role of the eldest daughter-in-law of a family that has all collapsed? Aren’t you going to hand out the divorce papers the moment Jin Do-jun takes Sun-yang? President, don’t you know your daughter’s disposition?”
It was hard to refute. I got married even though I knew that Jin Young-joon in my youth was a bitch. For one reason, he is the eldest son of Chairman Jin.
There is no way that her daughter, whose goal is to become the hostess of the Sunyang Group, will be the eldest daughter-in-law of a ruined family.
“The Hansung Ilbo is a family business that has been passed down through the third generation. Soldiers crossed the Han River twice during the Japanese colonial period and during the war, but they survived thanks to their skillful conduct. Compared to that, the president’s family life is nothing.”
Chairman Hong, who had been silent for a while, spoke to Joo-Pil Park.
“You think you’ve already decided the winner or the loser.”
“The competencies are different. The eldest son inherited the most and the youngest inherited the least. But look at it now. The true scale of Jin Do-Jun’s HW and Sunyang Miracle is so enormous that no one knows. The firepower is already over.”
After confirming that Chairman Hong’s heart was moving, Joo-Pil Park came up with the most realistic words.
“Think about when Jin Daojun took Sunyang. We may dry up and die. In particular, even if this government secures a comprehensive programming channel, it would be impossible to organize advertisements.”
Chairman Hong sighed when he thought of the comprehensive programming channel.
The leash of media companies is held by advertisers, not readers or the government.
Even now, I feel sick to my stomach just watching the huge advertisement money that Jin Do-jun sprinkles. If the current situation continues even in general channels, a huge deficit is inevitable.
“Then why are you suddenly saying this? You and Director Cho are a bit strange…”
“Jin Do-jun made a scouting offer.”
“also! I must have.”
I also thought that Joo-Pil Park was one step ahead of Director Cho. Joo-Pil Park, who tries to take both at the moment of either choice, is a person that Director Cho, who only calculates personal gain, cannot keep up with.
“What are you going to do if I reject your offer? Are you going to stick over there?”
“You can’t deny it, can you? is not it?”
It was difficult for Chairman Hong to shake his head in the face of Joo-Pil Park, who was talking with a smile.

“Oh, my in-laws. God is clear. Wasn’t it the last time I saw your face briefly at a wedding? I was too careless.”
“You say everything, Chairman. I, a lower person, have to contact you often…”
“No, no. I’m the busiest person in Korea, so where’s the time to care about an old man like me? It’s fine.”
Is it because you are a journalist? Or is it because he met an advertiser who is in the position of A? A person who can make anyone laugh.
“Did you see the top article in the morning today? I told you to pay close attention…”
Korean companies also have to change if they want to survive international competition. It is no longer for the interests of corporate owners, but for the interests of shareholders, and in order to do so, even foreigners should give up the CEO position if they have the ability.
It was almost unfamiliar for a gesture of reconciliation.
“He was very right. haha.”
I can laugh and even make strange noises.
For a while, we danced to each other and ate with the accompaniment of unfamiliar sounds. As you can see just by looking at the article, they are already reaching out and holding hands. Needless to say
It’s just that the old man created this place because he wanted to hear a definite answer from me.
“By the way, Chairman. Would you like today’s article? My uncle must be very angry.”
“What can I do? It’s that hard to always maintain a good relationship with your in-laws. But the burden I carry is too great for me to live as a sinner with a daughter. Keeping the Hanseong Daily takes precedence over maintaining a good relationship with your in-laws.”
“Yes. The family business comes first.”
Chairman Hong looked at me and spoke with difficulty.
“How is it? Can you help this old man nurture the inherited family business?”
I wait for the words I need to hear to come out of my mouth.
“What power do I have? If the media fulfills its mission, the public will recognize it and the readers will reciprocate. Then the Hansung Ilbo will be forever. Oh, I will subscribe regularly. And it gives instructions to related affiliates as well. I want you to subscribe to one copy for each department.”
In an instant, Chairman Hong’s complexion turned red.
It’s not something you need to hear, it’s words that turn inside out, so even someone who has lived a life of fake laughter must have had a hard time hiding their emotions.
“I don’t think it’s time to joke…?”
“I am not kidding. What else do you think I can do?”
“Are you serious?”
He smiled at the man staring at him.
“One of the things I learned from my grandfather is to clearly distinguish between enemies and friends. If you are an ally, you should take care of three meals a day so that you do not go hungry, and if you are an enemy, you should at least set a fire in the barn so that you cannot sleep right away from worrying about food.”
“Am I the enemy? Do you say that when you read the newspaper this morning?”
It is clear that the article was written with pride. It is a declaration of surrender and a sign of reconciliation, but ignoring it is like putting salt on a broken pride.
How bitter will it be? Those glaring eyes, of course, deserved it.
“Thank you for the article, but the president’s daughter is my sister-in-law. I’m the wife of the man I’m trying to break. It’s not a relationship that can be changed with a line of friendly articles.”
“I abandoned my daughter to protect the family business. Don’t you know that?”
“It’s not like that, but he’s trying to get his daughter out of the ruined in-laws house. Instead, they want to get me to take their place. Isn’t it?”
If you don’t know the subject yet, you should listen to more venomous sounds. I told him who couldn’t say anything about the future relationship.
“If the Hanseong Ilbo and Sunyang are no longer related by in-laws, then the president and I are strangers. If it weren’t for business, there wouldn’t be a chance to smile and be humble like this. Oh, of course, it’s true that we still met through business, but it’s ambiguous because there’s something involved.”
His closed mouth opened slightly and a soft sigh came out.
I realized that even if I said that my daughter was an ally for a hundred days unless she divorced, it would be an empty word.
And the moment the daughter divorces, it is not an alliance, but a master-servant relationship.
There is only a top-down relationship between advertisers and media companies, and those who give out and those who get it.
“Maybe it’s because I’m still young… You’re ignoring the power of the Hansung Ilbo too much.”
I know it’s not a threat to break the game. It is to use the effort to become a little more equal position.
“You don’t know my strength yet, so you’re building up the last remaining pride. Money that can be mobilized without limit at any time, the Sunyang affiliates I have, and the HW group. Shall we move all the media in Korea except the Hansung Ilbo with this power? It will only take a moment to become a loner.”
Articles that other media do not accept are just a combination of words and have no power. Articles with a similar tone must line up to move public opinion and move public sentiment.
The Hansung Ilbo cannot be trusted by talking about it alone. It is also the reason why independent media do not use their power.
He opened his eyes wide at the word unlimited money.
New York’s Miracle Investment was told who it was, and Chairman Hong understood.
“A divorce is inevitable anyway. Then, our Hanseong Ilbo and Sunyang are not related. Is there anything else you need?”
“If that’s the case, I don’t need anything. But there is something you must know.”
“What is it?”
“Do your own thing. This is a song that kindergarteners sing.”
I put down the spoon and got up.
“It’s not something that will happen because someone tells you. If you realize it, please contact me.”
As I left the restaurant and got into the car, my cell phone rang.
Chairman Hong. This old man seems smart too.
“yes. President.”
I called first, but it seems that it is difficult to open my mouth easily. I was just holding the phone without saying anything. It is up to him to say what he must say.
– …by all means, our Hansung Daily… Thank you very much.
