125 – Cataclysm (2)
The first in the line of succession and the de facto owner of Saudi Arabia.
Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
He’s been in a pretty bad mood until the last few days.
From the original expression, he didn’t show his emotions well.
Because of this, the atmosphere of the Saudi monarchy was literally on thin ice.
Because it was so obvious what would happen to Crown Prince Muhammad in that state by mistake.
In that sense, the people who faced the day with the most tension were those close to Prince Muhammad.
And as much as I was near him, I knew very well why Crown Prince Mohammed was in a bad mood.
A few days ago, it was because of news from a small country called Korea.
I wondered if that was news related to the 927 artist.
The only reason Crown Prince Muhammad visited Korea before was because of the 927 writer.
But.
“…… Is it.”
For some reason, Crown Prince Mohammed’s expression, which had seemed in a bad mood until now, suddenly brightened.
“Cancel all the schedules and visit Korea right now.”
Then, I suddenly scheduled a visit to Korea.
Of course, there was no one who could throw up on it, and no one could put it on in the first place.
“…… The crown prince Can I tell the Saudi Embassy in Korea that I am visiting Korea for what reason?”
“Please tell me that you are visiting a friend.”
“Okay.”
“And.”
Crown Prince Mohammed grinned.
Until now, he never made a quick move, and he had been patient.
It was because he advertised that Seo Eun-woo, who had moved openly, was a 927 writer.
I was well aware that that was not what my friend wanted.
But this time, a rather special situation came.
A friend who seemed like he would never do a favor to himself for the rest of his life asked for help first.
This was also meant to foretell the wind of great change.
Knowing that, Crown Prince Mohammed was delighted, and at the same time, the 927 writer needed a place to relax the patience he had endured while lying in the hospital.
“Investigate Korea’s Yeonggwang Group. And if there are people who have invested in the company on our side, tell them to hurry up and sell it. If you violate this, I will take it as an act of disrespect for bin Salman’s son.”
Of course, Europe and the US have a much bigger market and a brighter future, but surprisingly, there are many big players who have invested in Korean companies from the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia.
And the reason for this was that Crown Prince Muhammad’s visit to Korea had a big connection with a screenwriter in Korea, and Yeonggwang Group was also one of the beneficiaries of this aftermath.
Just.
“My Crown Prince. Then there will be great confusion in the Korean economy.”
It was obvious what would happen if such investors all at once, and all at once, sold their stocks and completely pulled out of the market.
However, there was no way Prince Muhammad of the world would not know that fact, so he said with a friendly smile.
“I know what you are worried about. But shouldn’t I tell you properly this time? What will happen if you touch a friend of the Saudi royal family.”
Prince Muhammad hurried to visit Korea after receiving his friend’s request for help.
Soon after, the big players in the Middle East who had been working on Youngkwang Group at a request close to the order of Prince Muhammad began withdrawing their feet in an instant, and it was literally a death sentence predicting a stock price crash.
***
Many investors in the Youngkwang Group in the Middle East cut losses.
Actually, that alone was an emergency, but one more incident occurred where oil was poured into it.
The kidnapping case of Seol So-young, which was caused by Dae-han Kwon, the successor of Yeonggwang Group.
People naturally think like this because he, who was already controversial with his personality, caused another big accident.
What will be the future of Youngkwang Group, led by Daehan Kwon?
Investment sometimes reports the current corporate value, but the most important thing is whether the future of the company is that bright.
In that sense, it was obvious what the results would be if we put the Youngkwang Group, led by Daehan Kwon, on a scale and thought about it.
Of course, even so, Yeonggwang Group still has the value of its name as Korea’s best conglomerate in people’s heads.
This means that even if you face a major setback, you can overcome it without difficulty, and it is a structure in which you do not suffer much loss even if you put it in unless the stock price drops significantly.
But.
How would people react if the drop in stock prices really increased in an instant, rather than gradually?
Perhaps a panic comes as the hands tremble as a group.
Isn’t now the highest point even in the midst of falling? While thinking about whether to sell or not, I was diligently rolling my head.
In the meantime, there will be a split between the side of watching a little longer and the side of hurrying to get out of the way, but it was a story that didn’t have any particular meaning.
No matter how small the latter number is, if the news of Middle Eastern investors withdrawing, it would have been obvious which way they would lean at that moment.
The problem here was that there was absolutely no way that those who had already suffered losses would just drop their hands and leave coolly.
In that sense, you must be literally going through chaos right now, with angry accusations and strong protest calls towards Young Kwang Group.
“… ….”
And Hong Yeon-hwa, who was informed of all the news that had happened in Young-Gwang Group, finished the phone call with her husband with a dazed look on her face.
…… Why.
Did this happen all of a sudden?
Is it really possible that the Yeonggwang Group, the best conglomerate in Korea he knew, suffered such great damage in just a moment?
Actually, it was a meaningless question now.
In the first place, actually, that was already happening.
So Hong Yeon-hwa slowly turned her head and looked at someone in the director’s office.
As if she knew everything, she looked at a male student who had been staring at her with a light smile…….
Seeing that, Hong Yeon-hwa just had one thing she wanted to ask her male student.
What the hell is it?
However, Hong Yeon-hwa could not ask the male student that question because someone urgently visited the office of the chairman.
Because he was a person who had absolutely no reason to appear in such a private place.
‘Choi, Choi Do-jin?’
The current president of South Korea.
For some reason, he showed up here in person.
Choi Do-jin took a look at the atmosphere in the chairman’s office and let out a deep sigh.
He already knew everything.
Friction between the children of the conglomerate family, the collapse of the stock price of the Youngkwang Group without knowing why.
And the most shocking news I heard from Yoo Yeon-jeong, director of Studio N Mix.
Dojin Choi looked at a male student wearing a school uniform from Hanbit Arts High School.
Then, I passed Daehan Kwon and Yeonhwa Hong lightly and stood in front of the male student.
“Now I can finally say hello. It is an honor to meet you.”
What was even more surprising here was that Choi Do-jin bowed his head to the male student first.
Of course, the male students also shook their hands as if surprised by Dojin Choi’s sudden appearance and behavior.
“That… You don’t need to be polite to me like this…… “
“No. You are a treasure of Korea, and personally I am a big fan. So, I want to take care of you as much as possible from now on.”
“Is that why you came to see me like this?”
“Yes. It would be much cleaner and quicker for me to sort things out myself.”
In fact, what Seo Eun-woo asked for was his grandson, Jung Ji-hoon, for guidance from the school and some help according to the situation.
With Jeong Ji-hoon, you can control the students who follow Kwon Dae-han equally, and it will be easy to get in and out of the school.
‘…… Crazy.’
Meanwhile.
Yoo Jae-hyeon, the director of Yeonggwang High School, who was watching the situation closely in a cold sweat, gradually realized what the male student really was.
A person who has a deep relationship with Studio Enmix to the extent that her older sister Yoo Yeon-jung warns her to be careful, and has a tremendous influence enough to motivate even President Choi Do-jin.
In Korea, only one person came to mind within the scope of his knowledge.
But again, I have this question.
Is that mysterious writer the same age as the idiot over there, Kwon Dae-han? Even considering the year the work was made, it means that it was made at a much younger age.
Is that really possible?
If it’s really possible, the public’s evaluation and value might go up even more than now.
Of course, it seems that it has already become a fait accompli from the moment President Choi Do-jin moved willingly.
It was then.
“Mrs. Hong. How about sincerely apologizing to Seol So-young and Seo Eun-woo right now?”
President Choi Do-jin opened his mouth with a bitter smile toward Hong Yeon-hwa.
And that meant that anyone could see that they were taking the side of Seo Eun-woo and Seol So-young.
So Hong Yeon-hwa bit her lip.
“What the hell…… “
Soon, Yeon-Hwa Hong, who had not yet noticed the identity of the male student, slowly opened her mouth to Do-Jin Choi.
“Who is that male student so openly taking sides?”
“Is that really important in this situation?”
However, it was Seo Eun-woo, a male student, not Choi Do-jin, who answered the question.
Seo Eun-woo got up from his seat and slowly approached Hong Yeon-hwa.
And……
“The important thing is that your son did something that got on my nerves from the first day I was discharged, and I think you should take responsibility for that mistake.”
“How do you do that…… “
“What and how? Right now, mother and child go to So-young on good terms, get down on your knees and apologize for your mistake. I think that will make you feel a little better.”
Hong Yeon-hwa was instinctively aware of Seo Eun-woo’s words.
Really, as he said, unless you get down on your knees, this situation is likely to end even worse.
Wouldn’t it be a cheap business if the situation ended with him kneeling once and apologizing properly as he requested?
But…….
“You are not complacent in thinking that everything will end with just that, right? I don’t think that kind of imagination is very interesting. If it was going to be like that in the first place, it wouldn’t have been such a big deal.”
The moment I saw the male student’s bold tone and friendly smile, I immediately realized that it was a big mistake.
