“The Korean law enforcement authorities have requested information from the Ministry of Justice on the flow of funds in U.S. funds related to the Daeyang Group. The Ministry of Justice will comply with your request to the extent legally possible.”
Eric Holder posted the report.
Eric Holder, who served as Attorney General in the Obama administration, still has a number of acquaintances, but he has not had much influence over the Justice Department in the Trump administration.
However, they tried to lobby in various ways using Eugene and Trump’s friendship, and it seems that the upper level of the Ministry of Justice, knowing that Eugene was close to Donald as well as Kushner, the hidden power, decided to actively cooperate with Korea’s demands. .
“It will probably be enough to prove that the Daeyang Group owner’s family used private equity funds abroad to defraud.”
It seems that the Korean side is also quite enthusiastic. Seeing this request for data through the U.S. Department of Justice, it seemed like he wanted to send a signal to Eugene.
If it is proven that the family of the owner of the Daeyang Group has cheated in various ways, the corresponding profits will be confiscated.
Of course, most of the overseas slush funds they have accumulated over the past few decades have been sucked up by Eugene, so it will have to be financed with assets in Korea.
“… … That is how it is.”
This time, John Brennan, head of Eugene’s private intelligence agency, reported.
It was a story that each powerful institution in Korea was putting pressure on the Daeyang Group in various ways.
It is said that not only the prosecutor’s office, but also the financial authorities, the National Tax Service, and the Korea Customs Service have launched a full-fledged internal investigation into the illegal activities that the Daeyang Group has been doing for the past 10 years.
If any illegal parts are found, they will all be sent to the prosecution without delay for judicial treatment.
Each affiliate of the Daeyang Group is in a state of paralysis due to the pouring circumstances.
It was difficult for executives and employees to proceed with their work due to anxiety about the future of the company.
This ejaculation drive also had an impact on the share price.
At this rate, because of concerns that the dissolution of the Daeyang Group is only a matter of time, those holding the Daeyang Group affiliates’ stocks made a move to dispose of them immediately, but there was no one to buy them, so the stock price could not avoid falling day after day.
“The atmosphere is strange. It seems that they are not simply trying to condemn the Daeyang Group for preferential treatment to the boss.”
Several circumstances supported John Brannon’s pity.
It seemed correct that the Blue House ordered a thorough investigation into the illegal activities of the Daeyang Group, but it seemed that the current series of circumstances was not simply due to the Blue House’s instructions.
“I know. Let’s keep an eye on it.”
Eugene felt that what was happening in Korea was a little far from her intentions.
I had a strong feeling that someone, or some people, was aiming for a piece of cake that would arise from the conflict between Eugene and the Daeyang Group.
Maybe it’s more than just a simple pie crust. They may try to take advantage of this gap to swallow the ocean group whole.
After John Brannon left, Eugene called Joanna to check a few things.
“The liquidation value of Daeyang Group is expected to be approximately KRW 45 trillion.”
Daeyang Group affiliates, which have been at the fore in the Korean industry for decades, have not only strong sales networks but also various real estate properties across the country.
Even if the group goes bankrupt, if you can get your hands on the remains, you will be able to gain a lot of profit.
In fact, Eugene’s goal was for the owner family of the Daeyang Group to receive a proper treatment, but the assets of the Daeyang Group were not of much significance.
But I have no intention of allowing humans to step foot and profit, who have absolutely nothing to do with the problems between themselves and the Ocean Group.
That’s actually a very important issue.
No matter who it is, if we stand by the actions that gain from Eugene, there will be an increased possibility that there will be people who will step into Eugene’s steps and eat only the profits in the future.
It’s always a one time problem. If you accept the first, it becomes two, and then it becomes three.
Eugene had no intention of pretending not to know who it was.
The question is, who is plotting this?
For now, I guess I’ll just have to wait and see what’s going on.

“Now this makes sense!”
In a room at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office, Ryu Geun-ho, the eldest son of the president of Daeyang Motors and now the president of the Daeyang Group, who is actually leading the Daeyang Group on behalf of his father, was shouting.
“First of all, it is unavoidable. The evidence the prosecution has is too clear.”
Although the lawyer was embarrassed, he tried to convince the boss no matter what.
“So you’re telling me to put on handcuffs and go to jail? What are you guys doing? Didn’t you give me money to stop this from happening? You too are from the prosecutor’s office! Why are you doing things like this?”
“I’m trying to put pressure here and there, but the seeds don’t work.”
“Where are you not eating? What are all the bastards who took my money up to now? Is it just a penny or two that you gave to the Central Prosecutor’s Office?”
“They said they couldn’t help it because it was an instruction from above.”
“Where is the top? Attorney General? Didn’t that bastard eat my money?”
“I… … Boss, if you say that here… … .”
The lawyer looked around and said softly.
“How about whoever hears it? tell me to listen! Shiba. If anyone here doesn’t take my money, tell them to come out! Attorney General? where is the child tell me to come out! With what kind of guts are you going to take it and give it some orders now? uh? Fuck! Do you think I’ll die alone when I die?”
Ryu Geun-ho was left with the last resort of intimidation.
Money invested in a relationship over the past few decades will always leave behind evidence.
And such evidence is kept intact in a place known only to the president’s family.
Ryu Geun-ho and Ryu Geun-il are well aware of how serious the current situation is.
All sides are targeting the Daeyang Group, and it is impossible not to know. But they still have that splendid ledger.
Of course, they are well aware that they will oxidize themselves the moment they explode, but they were ready to threaten them at any time as a last resort because those who received the money would not be safe either.
“that is… … It is an instruction from above.”
“hot?”
“It seems like a VIP.”
At the lawyer’s words, President Ryu Geun-ho’s face was distorted. No matter how much money is sprinkled on the prosecution or the politicians, it is a different matter when it comes to the Blue House.
Of course, a considerable amount of donations went into the president, and the evidence remains.
However, if you threaten with it, it will never be of any benefit.
“First of all, we have no choice but to comply with their demands.”
After reading President Ryu’s face, the lawyer tried to persuade him again.
“Anyway, the arrest period will not be very long. We will get them out through the courts soon.”
“really. Are you going to make me offended? Yoon Byun. You know it’s difficult for me to be photographed like that right now, right? In the current situation, if I do that, I don’t know what he will do in a few days.”
In fact, the biggest problem was inside, not outside. There is only one step left before taking the throne of the Daeyang Group.
However, if they were arrested and put on trial in this situation, there was a high possibility that the position would be taken away by their second son, Ryu Geun-il, president of Daeyang Electronics.
“Actually, that is a problem. After listening to the story today, it seems that the second president will be summoned soon.”
“what?”
“Daeyang Electronics is in crisis just as much as automobiles. perhaps… … In the worst case, there is a possibility that both of them will be arrested… … .”
“her… … .”
President Ryu Geun-ho couldn’t decide whether to be happy or sad at the news that not only himself but also his rival brother could be arrested.
“I mean, I want to eat it completely down to the bone. Who is it? Who is plotting this?”
Ryu Geun-ho asked with a disappointed expression.
He tends to be hot-blooded and stubborn, but he is by no means foolish.
From the lawyer’s words, they could now read the huge conspiracy that lay before their eyes.
“Is that the child? Kang Yoo-jin? How has he grown so much?”
“Perhaps as we enter the second half of the regime, cooperation with Kang Yu-jin is necessary. I heard that he has a very close relationship with the newly elected president of the United States. If Kang Yu-jin puts up a fish farm, the current president of Korea will also become a plant.”
“haha… … That absurd… … .”
“Donald Trump is a very bad guy. He’s the kind of person who doesn’t care what he used to do if there’s something that offends him. But what can’t you do if your biggest supporter asks for it?”
Whatever the actual facts, that was the image of President Donald Trump and Kang Yu-jin in Korea today.
In particular, due to the fact that Kang Yu-jin is Korean, the image of him has been deified to the fullest, and there are even rumors that he is a real powerhouse manipulating the US president from behind.
Of course, there were those who denigrated it as just a close business person with Trump, but there were not many.
Above all, the enormous wealth that Eugene has built up in recent years has made people overestimate his abilities.
Because of that, there was no one who was not afraid of Kang Yu-jin in the current political relationship in Korea.
A series of accidents that led to ‘touching Yujin Kang’ soon led to ‘against the will of the US president’, and again, ‘There is an uproar at the Blue House’, dominated the minds of those involved.
In fact, even if Eugene did nothing, people already believed that Eugene was exerting a tremendous influence on Korea’s political and business circles.
At the lawyer’s words, President Ryu did not say anything.
The seriousness of the situation was felt more realistically than ever.
“then… … I will go out and ask for a way to the best of my ability and see you again.”
The lawyer, who watched Ryu silently for a moment, left.
Because it was so obvious that we couldn’t do anything more here.
“okay. Go out and tell Geun-il. It should be avoided as much as possible.”
President Geun-ho opened his mouth weakly.
“Tell me to give you whatever you want. If you and I are both in, you can’t do anything.”
Faced with the situation, he realized that competition with his younger brother was not that important.
“All right. I will tell you that.”
The lawyer bowed his head and left.
But less than an hour later, the lawyer went to see Liu again.
“sorry. I’m here to tell you this.”
“Something?”
“CEO Geun-il Ryu… … .”
“What is the last day?”
“You have had an accident.”
Ryu Geun-ho frowned at the sudden words of the lawyer and asked again.
“accident? what accident?”
“It is a car accident. On the move… … The truck was the car the boss was driving… … .”
“What are you talking about? now!”
“It was an instant death.”
Ryu Geun-ho’s head turned white.
