< Chairman Cha’s intention (3) >
At Chairman Cha’s gesture, Secretary Kim immediately sat down across from him.
“Secretary Kim, is this your doing?”
Chairman Cha thumped the bribe ledger of Wookwang Construction.
< Since Wookwang Construction's funds are severely insufficient, it is Taesung, not Wookwang, who is responsible for securing the necessary funds for lobbying······.>
Secretary Kim’s eyes narrowed on their own.
It’s a file tied with rope.
It would have been possible to just remove the page, but it appears that three pages were intentionally erased.
“This wasn’t just torn. Someone cut it intentionally.”
“The intention was right. I really need to see this missing page.”
Where and how did Wookwang Construction stab Taesung!
Where, to whom, and how much of the necessary funds were taken!
“I’m going back to headquarters.”
Knock knock knock!
Chairman Cha’s footsteps as he left the Taesung Hotel coffee shop were filled with unforgettable anger.
Chairman Cha was followed by Secretary Kim and Director Ko.
“Secretary Kim, the guy who wrote this ledger. Where is he now?”
“I understand that he was taken to the underground torture chamber of the serving room.”
“Bring him in front of me. I’ll have to hear it from his own mouth.”
“yes.”
It was something I had promised to Lord Jeonghyeok anyway.
It looks like the problem can now be solved with a single phone call to the Central Committee in the Chairman’s name.
Chairman Cha gritted his teeth.
“I heard there’s a kid who joined hands with Woo-kwang and hit the back of my head. Do you have any idea who that guy is?”
Secretary Kim did not open his mouth easily.
There are only clues, but no evidence or confirmation.
“There’s nothing I can do. The water is leaking from the jar in my house, so I have no choice but to block the drain hole right away.”
Chairman Cha’s order was given.
“Call all the executives of all affiliates immediately! Call an emergency meeting! In two hours, to the headquarters conference room!”
Secretary Kim’s expression hardened noticeably.
How can the schedules of executives, including the CEO, be so free?
The group leader said that it would be difficult to come running right away if he called.
But if Chairman Cha pushes ahead, the executives have no choice but to run barefoot.
“Contact the secretary’s office and tell them to make a call right away! From Taesung’s headquarters to all the affiliates! And tell them not to forget to bring this year’s accounting books with them when they come!”
“yes.”
“We should also get in touch with the media and politicians! If there’s anything we can confirm by contacting the swindlers planted in U-Gwang, we should point it out and move on!”
“yes.”
“I’ll put Director Ko and the security team on your side. Secretary Kim, you handle it yourself, by any means necessary!”
“Yes, I will do that.”
Chairman Cha’s nickname is the Flame Bulldozer.
Once I make up my mind to do something, I run towards it with fire in my eyes.
He is a gentleman who must break a rock if there is a rock in front of him, and must cross a river by swimming, renting a boat, or building a bridge to feel satisfied.
Since such a gentleman made up his mind to catch the thieves, things were bound to get worse.
‘Time is running out. There is less than a month left for the subway construction bid!’
There’s no immediate cause for concern, but if you’re going to put all the executives of affiliated companies under suspicion and search them thoroughly… Fuck!
Even if the Ministry of Justice, the Department of Accounting, the Department of Audit, and the Department of General Affairs are mobilized, it will not be easy to find loopholes.
When you’ve made up your mind to betray someone, it’s basic to create double ledgers to hide the stench.
If we continue to turn the group upside down like this, the noise will never stop.
The person at the Blue House probably won’t look kindly on it either.
For a moment, I wondered if it was really necessary to take such a risk when Taesung Construction’s future depended on the project.
‘But I have to do what I have to do!’
Chairman Cha’s mind has not changed.
‘It’s been 30 years! Is there anyone among the current executives who hasn’t worked with me for at least 30 years? None!’
Chairman Cha trembled with betrayal.
I trusted and cared for them that much.
Just as we shared the hardships of the past, we also enjoy the good times of the present.
He was given a prestigious position, a generous salary, and even stocks.
‘Even if I kick you out, I’ll give you a chance to turn yourself in! There’s that much loyalty between those guys and me!’
That was why Chairman Cha immediately summoned the executive team.
My mouth felt bitter.
A long sigh escaped me without me realizing it.
“That bribe. It was over 2 billion won. How could Woo-kwang, who spent all the money he had to get into the steel business four years ago, have that much spare money? It was all Tae-seong’s······, damn it!”
The more I think about it, the more my heart boils.
Secretary Kim opened his mouth carefully.
“Sir, there is an easy way to narrow down the scope and solve this problem.”
“What is it?”
“Who sent this ledger to the chairman?”
“······!”
Chairman Cha’s expression hardened.
Even his stomping steps stopped and he stood still.
“no way······!”
“I have a feeling that the page you are looking for is probably in the possession of Lord Jeonghyeok.”
“She’s only seven years old!”
“Yes, that’s great. You blatantly hid only the most important information. What was your intention in handing over this government to me?”
The reason why he could readily hand over such an account book as a bribe.
The freedom to yell at my chaebol grandfather and hold my mother’s hand while walking out.
‘This is definitely not an easy task. I can’t help but hold the young master’s hand.’
If you want to dig up all the affiliates of Taesung Group like this, the secretary’s office will also have to roll over and make a lot of noise.
If you are an impatient chairman, you should make sure to work overtime for at least a month before the subway construction bidding begins, that is, before the subway construction bidding begins.
So Secretary Kim spoke with unusual emphasis.
“Chairman, if you just get your hands on this back cover, you won’t have to doubt the entire executive team that has been with you for 30 years. If you just find the leaking water hole, you can easily block it.”
That’s right.
“It will greatly reduce the time and effort required to track down a traitor. You won’t have to mobilize all your manpower to comb through the accounting books of your affiliates. Isn’t that just a waste of time and money?”
Chairman Cha looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh.
Just a moment ago, I remembered how I had pressured Lee Soo-jin into leaving the child behind and finding a way to live.
Today, I saw my grandson for the first time, holding my mother’s hand and walking away without looking back.
‘I think this is a good one. If I was going to just give up that backside, I wouldn’t have cut it off so blatantly in advance.’
That was the reason Chairman Cha sighed.
The subway construction project costing a whopping 180 billion won involved not only the Taeseong hole that looked like it would cost at least 2 billion won, but also the 30 billion won project with Wookwang.
Of course, Chairman Cha’s pride, who had adamantly said that marriage would not happen, was also at stake!
“I really feel like smoking today.”
“Here it is.”
Director Ko immediately offered a cigarette.
He turned on the lighter and lit Chairman Cha’s cigarette.
Secretary Kim waited silently for Chairman Cha, who was smoking a cigarette.
“Phew······.”
Chairman Cha smoked five cigarettes right then and there.
After blowing out a long puff of smoke, Chairman Cha turned to look at Secretary Kim.
Secretary Kim immediately bowed.
“Please leave this matter to me. I will go to Lord Jeonghyeok and obtain these three pages of confidential information.”
“Okay, then I’ll leave this matter to Secretary Kim. I’ll give it my all, so resolve it quickly.”
“yes.”
Secretary Kim spoke with his back bent.
“Mr. Chairman, may I ask you one thing?”
“What is it?”
“If you had to choose between the 180 billion won subway line 2 construction project and the 30 billion won cooperative project with Wookwang, which one would you give up?”
Chairman Cha furrowed his brow.
“Why should I throw them away? There is no reason why Taesung can’t take charge of the subway construction, and there is no reason to give up a 30 billion won project.”
“But does everything in this world always work out the way you want it to? Isn’t there always something called “what if?”
Chairman Cha did not answer.
Instead, he turned his back.
“It’s not too late to decide that when you get there. Right now, how much of Taesung’s safe has been robbed, who’s involved, and when they started stabbing me in the back of the head. We need to find out and punish them first.”
“All right.”
Secretary Kim left.
Chairman Cha stared blankly at her back and then nervously put out his cigarette butt.
‘So, would it be better to give up on marrying Woo-kwang and accept that mother and child?’
Chairman Cha’s eyes sank deeply.
‘If it is true that Woo-kwang really hit Tae-seong on the back of the head······.’
A 30 billion won project that was promoted on the premise of marriage with Woo Kwang.
Just thinking about it made me sick to my stomach.
* * *
I held my mother’s hand and headed to the court first.
‘It’s not over just because you’ve signed the contract and paid the balance. You can never let your guard down until it’s officially registered with the court!’
What I’m saying is that the country needs to officially recognize my right to a home!
“end!”
I completed the registration process without any difficulty.
My mother’s eyes were wide open the whole time.
“How can you apply for a certificate of registration so skillfully when even your mother doesn’t know how to do it?”
“······.”
Oops.
The place I frequently visited while working in the private loan business was the court.
It was a time when I had no money and was desperately trying to save on legal fees by going around getting registrations.
There’s no way to explain this?
“Where on earth did you learn this?”
“······Playing house?”
“Do kids these days even register when they’re playing house? And when did they learn Korean?”
“······.”
This is going to be a bit tricky to answer, isn’t it?
It’s not my style to keep making excuses and worrying about what other people think.
I just stopped talking.
“These days, times have changed so much. Do you think things are the same as when you were little?”
“······.”
The generation gap is a timeless excuse.
Next is a natural change of topic!
“Let’s go see our house! I want to see the swimming pool!”
Now that it’s my home, I need to start taking care of the problems that have been pending.
‘Why does that house shine like a golden light? I’m sure there’s some hidden secret. It smells like money!’
My gut tells me so.
‘Of course, exorcism is a bonus.’
Exactly.
When I snapped my fingers, the Grim Reaper rose up like smoke.
[······Don’t you think that it’s really too much from a human perspective?]
Now that I think about it, I really used it well yesterday and today.
‘That’s why I called you. Now it’s time to vent your anger!’
Only then did color return to the grim reaper’s pale face.
[I really like that!]
‘Let’s go find some ghosts!’
[······.]
Since ancient times, obeying orders from above is a sin that can be fatal regardless of the time or the present, but disobeying orders from below is an eternal tradition!
‘There must be a ghost who knows the secret of that house. Find him!’
I used to have a really good sense of smell when it came to dirty money.
This is somehow a secret slush fund deal that is being made in the shadows, with the source well-laundered!
The touch is coming!
Or else forget it.
< Chairman Cha's Will (3) > End
