[290] Banthing on good terms? 1
“Oh, don’t talk. Do you know how broken we are thanks to you? I suppressed the press at best, but when a young star from Sunyang appeared out of nowhere and announced that the national economy was shaking… I had no time to use my hands. haha.”
“That’s right. This… I’m sorry. I was in such a hurry…. If another economic crisis breaks out, the financial company I was in charge of would be at risk.”
“no. It’s a thing of the past, so I’m trying to laugh.”
The senior secretary for economic affairs at the Blue House hurriedly waved his hand at my polite apology.
“But if this happens again, I will turn around. I was shocked when the manager contacted me to meet him. Is something bigger happening now… I am very worried.”
Didn’t something big happen already? Are you still not aware of the seriousness?
“In fact, requests for interviews from presidents of major construction companies in Korea are pouring in. Including the purebred. However, I was most pleased with the contact from the former manager. It is important to understand the situation first.”
The senior secretary for economics carefully examined my expression.
“If you’re talking about major construction companies, you mean Sunyang and Daehyeon, right?”
“yes.”
“Do you know how much the two companies bite?”
“no. I haven’t checked yet.”
“Nearly 10 billion dollars, 10 trillion of our money.”
The chief economic officer blinked while holding the teacup he was carrying to his mouth. It will be because it is a difficult number to feel.
“Poem… ten trillion? Are you sure?”
“I am a member of Sunyang. And I also dipped a finger in HW construction. It is accurate because it is information obtained through various channels.”
The chief economic officer put down the teacup and hurriedly took out his cell phone.
“Senior. How about talking on the phone after I’m done talking?”
“Ah yes.”
He put the phone back in.
“Dubai is not the end. The construction of apartments in the domestic provinces will spark sparks. You know why construction company representatives ask for a meeting with the chief, right?”
I would have guessed it vaguely as a request for a loan arrangement, but this was beyond that scope. As in the case of the IMF, corporate bailouts are needed.
It was clearly visible that he was working hard. It will soon move into the third year of the administration. The more bad things happen, the sooner the lame duck comes. In order for the Blue House to act in the local elections next year, the situation must be calmed down with minimal shock.
“I am more curious about why the director asked to meet than why they asked to meet. Do you have any solutions?”
“It’s a bit drastic, but there is a neat solution.”
I guess my words sounded unwelcome because of the expression “extreme.” He said he could solve it, but his expression did not brighten.
“It’s troublesome when it’s noisy.”
“From the perspective of the Blue House, the louder the better.”
“yes?”
“Isn’t the opposition party’s offensive over the past two years mainly corporate-friendly… in other words, a pro-chaebol policy? Oh, I don’t mean to criticize in the slightest. I am the beneficiary.”
When his expression hardened at the word pro-chaebol, I even shook my hand and said,
“It has been a policy so far, but this situation will be called preferential treatment. So why don’t we leave it to the market altogether?”
“Leave it to the mayor…?”
“yes. If you can’t withstand the double shock waves of the financial crisis from the US and the Dubai moratorium, you will perish, and if you endure, you will survive. without government intervention.”
“Does anyone you know say something like that? If both companies go bankrupt, we will be out of control.”
I ignored this person’s concerns and continued.
“Please show the government taking care of local small and medium-sized enterprises that are collapsing. Then the opposition party will be embarrassed, and it will be of great help in the local elections next year.”
“That’s a very good opinion, but are you saying this without knowing that if a large construction company collapses, everything up to that point will be useless?”
The insolvency of Daehyeon and Sunyang is incomparably greater than the government’s support for SMEs. The government’s condescension is quickly buried.
“The market will not be affected at all. Because there is a place to take over both companies intact.”
“take over?”
“yes. That would be very good conditions. We will only take over with the power of the company, not seeking preferential treatment such as debt reduction or extension of loans.”
The chief economic officer finally realized why I asked to meet him.
Unlike other guys who ask for help or favors, I’m asking you not to intervene.
“Where is the company?”
“This is the HW group.”
“ah…!”
“Especially, most of the money from Dubai is taken by the HW Group.”
“Is that so? It’s the first time I’ve heard of it.”
“The moment HW Group casts the promissory note is the final date of bankruptcy of the two companies. A chain of bankruptcies is as obvious as seeing fire.”
He is the one who occupied the position of chief economic officer at the Blue House.
This is no different from looking into a scenario drawn with a big picture.
“It seems that HW has meticulously established the acquisition strategy of the two companies. So, doesn’t the Blue House mean to just watch and not sprinkle ashes on the finished rice?”
“It can’t be. If it’s a pre-scenario, it means that the HW group knew Dubai’s moratorium from a year ago…. Even a world-class company could not have predicted it. HW is not that good.”
My objection to the chief of economics is not important.
The Blue House does not intervene. This is also a very important role of the Blue House.
If you help Sunyang and Daehyeon, HW’s acquisition strategy will go to waste, so just watching is the preferential treatment given to the HW group.
The chief economic officer’s expression and attitude suddenly changed.
This is because I now know that I am no different from other conglomerates begging for preferential treatment and that I am in a position to receive complaints on behalf of the Blue House.
“Anyway, it’s not for me to decide. In particular, it is burdensome to just watch the bankruptcy of two companies representing Korea.”
After postponing the decision, the chief economic officer tilted his head.
“By the way, manager. One of Sunyang’s flagship companies is moving to another place… I wonder why you’re taking the lead.”
I scratched my head with an embarrassed expression.
“Do I have to tell you about family matters today? haha.”
“Oh, it’s okay if you don’t say anything if you’re uncomfortable.”
“no. It’s a story the whole world knows. In fact, I joined hands with HW Group. If HW acquires Daehyeon and Sunyang, I will bring Sunyang Construction back. It’s because it’s not a good look for a nephew to take over his uncle’s company himself.”
He heard the sound of his head rolling again. The Blue House only needs to take care of the best in the current situation.
Murray Gulli told him what to consider.
“As long as Sunyang Electronics and Daehyeon Motors are not shaken, Sunyang and Daehyeon will be in good health. It’s just that a super-large company called HW Construction is born. Isn’t this beneficial in many ways?”
electronics automobiles and construction.
It meant that the political world would have another place to lean on, so think carefully.
He was still thinking with his mouth shut. It’s an act of unpacking more presents that I can give.
In this case, it is effective to throw a small personal gift.
I took out several hotel card keys and threw them on the table.
“I know you are having a hard time with a lot of eyes these days. Use it when you need to share an intimate story like today. Turn the seniors one by one. It will be empty 365 days a year, so you can use it anytime.”
“This is a hotel…?”
“yes. A dedicated manager was also attached. If you call us when you are leaving, we will make all the arrangements for your convenience.”
Chiefs of the Blue House have to meet with reporters and ask for favors. You have to meet the ruling party lawmakers and let them know the Blue House’s intentions, and you have to meet the opposition party lawmakers and give them pocket money.
What they need is a secret place. It was common practice 10 years ago, but it has disappeared before anyone knows. It is to eliminate the place where illegal acts are committed.
The expression of the senior secretary for economic affairs was in full bloom as if he had been very disappointed.
“This really scratches the itch. Thank you for writing it well.”
“And I’m going to buy lunch for reporters, and I’ll leave one box at a time as an addition. Stop by and pick it up when you have time.”
“Oh, this… I don’t know if I’ll get sick from eating it or not.”
“I took business lessons from my late grandfather. We know that gifts end with gifts. Don’t worry.”
The senior secretary for economics had a satisfied expression.
Entrepreneurs only request a meeting with the president through their chiefs. And all I had to do was toss an envelope in the name of the interview fee and go.
It’s itchy like me, but it’s not easy for them to grab a watering can to scratch.
“I hope the Blue House will wait for a wise decision.”
He politely bowed his head, and he also hurriedly bowed his back.
“Isn’t it our government’s biggest policy to leave it to the flow of the market? I will try.”
Doing nothing is the easiest option.
I’m not going to go down the hard road.

“What the hell are you guys doing? did i bring the money? Or did you ask for the bill back? Is it that hard to arrange a Blue House meeting?”
Vibrator Vice President shouted, but everyone kept their heads down and pretended to be dumb who ate honey.
“How much money have you taken, saying it’s political funds or what? Even the money they took from last year’s general election would have prevented this incident. Did you make a delivery accident? Did you do everything in My Pocket!?”
Vibrator’s vice president knows best that it’s just a fuss.
The Blue House only avoids phone calls by itself, much less calls from executives. You will not receive it at all.
“Connect quickly! They stabbed Yeouido and robbed the government building. In the meantime, mobilize all the bastards who ate my money and knock on the door of the Blue House. The more late it is, the more the bank moves first.”
It’s still too early to give up. The Blue House is also burdened with the risk of killing hemp.
Vibrator looked for his brother with the feeling of grabbing at least a rotten rope.
But before he could speak, Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki shook his hand.
“Don’t say anything. i have no money The financial crisis isn’t just hitting you. I’m also crazy right now. America and Europe are screwed. The two biggest markets have been destroyed… and it’s hard to just hold on.”
“older brother. I’m not asking for electronic money. Please open the bank safe.”
“The bank has more to do with fire. Give up seeking loans under the name of Soonyang Electronics.”
“older brother!”
“Don’t scream. You don’t know what’s going on right now So let’s go while each person clears the stone that is placed on the road in front of us. Are you struggling? I will die too!”
It was not new to the vibrator that his older brother had turned his back.
However, he was most afraid that his own crisis might become his brother’s opportunity.
Dong-gi himself knows best that it is an opportunity that will never come again for his brother to take over the construction and heavy industry department in Sunyang.
Jin Young-ki’s gloomy eyes were more frightening than the bank.
* * *
When the brothers exchanged voices, Chairman Lee Hak-jae diligently turned the phone.
“How long can you wait? I haven’t even contacted Sunyang Construction or Daehyun. I know you can’t afford to pay, so what are you doing by calling me?”
Chairman Lee Hak-jae spoke in a soft voice with the presidents of large commercial banks.
This is the table that Dojunie has prepared.
He was the only one holding the spoon and chopsticks, and all that was left was for the banks to pick up the table and set it down in front of him.
Lastly, the Blue House, which has the power to overturn the table, does not even look this way.
All that remains is to eat deliciously.
