end of the year in Australia.
Every city in Australia participates in the festival to end the year and welcome the new year, but Sydney is one of them.
Because there is a fireworks display on New Year’s Eve.
A grandiose flower viewing at night with a huge sum of $6 million.
To see it, people hurriedly moved to occupy the attraction.
Just as millions of people show the same movement during the World Fireworks Festival in Korea, the people of the southern hemisphere on the other side of the world were no different.
Sydney’s grand festival welcomed after a month of enjoying Melbourne’s Carnival.
As soon as they immigrated to Australia, smiles bloomed on the faces of the families who saw the large-scale festival one after another.
If I had been in Korea, my parents would not have been able to hear the New Year’s Eve bell properly because they only fried chicken due to the influx of orders.
Once again, the back of the nose became cold and my heart was proud.
When was the last time you had an event to spend the year-end and welcome the new year with your family…
When I was young, I used to go to see the sunrise together rubbing my sleepy eyes, but I didn’t even think about the sunrise with my family, maybe because that emotion disappeared as I grew up, or because I was busy eating and buying.
“Brother, what are you thinking?”
My sister patted me and asked.
“It’s just. It’s nice to be like this at the end of the year.”
“Wow? Is the sensitivity that wasn’t there just springing up? Ahaha.”
Oh, do you really have to destroy the mood of a person who is so sentimental?
“People are so much the same. Isn’t there something like that getting a little bit into the mood?”
“Do you see fireworks once or twice? They’re so amazing. Are you drunk with the atmosphere? I don’t know if I’m drunk.”
I shook my head and stuck out my tongue.
After all, the older sister was only biologically a woman, not a woman in the real sense.
That was then.
“Huh? It’s here.”
I said, pointing to the sea with one hand.
There, a yacht that turned surrounding ferries into plump boats appeared.
Queen Elizabeth.
This is the private yacht of Lena Dainhart, the chairman of Jencock Brostacking.
Just in time for today, she had brought her from Perth.
– Kuung.
After docking at Circular Quay, my family, Henry, Helen, and Jackie boarded the Queen Elizabeth one after another.
On the upper deck, Lina Danehart was there to meet her.
“Come in, am I not late?”
Henry replied with a broad smile to her words.
“It’s just started. You’ve come just in time.”
“I was nervous about being late, but I’m glad.”
As Lina Dainhart smiles and claps her hands twice, the yacht crew sets a table on the upper deck and begins to deliver food and wine.
The yacht was heading near the Harbor Bridge, but the shaking was so slight that it was almost imperceptible.
Expensive yachts looked different no matter what.
-pop. puff. Pugh.
With the Harbor Bridge and the Opera House in the background, fireworks were in full bloom, creating a sensation.
The people on the deck raised their heads and looked at the scene with ecstatic expressions.
I too enjoyed the feast of fireworks with a happy smile for a long time.
When the fireworks were over, Lina spoke to me and Henry.
“Let the others party here, and the two of you will see me for a moment? I have something important to tell you.”
We gladly followed her to the private office below the deck.
“What are you doing?”
“Before that, congratulations, Mr. Jean. No, I’ll call you Edward now.”
“Haha, feel free to call me.”
“You officially became the representative of All Mining, right? I hope to become a good partner in the future.”
“Of course, Lina. That’s what I’d like to ask you.”
She smiled happily and held out a key in front of me.
“This is an inauguration gift, so don’t hesitate to accept it.”
Heck, this!
“Can I really take it?”
“Yes. It’s used, but it’s like it’s leaking because I bought it and never rode it. You can get on and off at the hangar when disembarking later.”
I grabbed the car key with the trident symbol and swallowed my saliva.
Receive a billion-dollar gift.
It’s a long life to see.
“Lina, tell me what’s going on now. I can’t take it anymore because I’m curious.”
“Ho-ho, it looks like I’ve lost my patience for being one year older.”
“At this age, every day is different. Heh heh heh.”
“Ugh, what are you talking about while you’re still correcting?”
“Okay, let me tell you something important.”
Lina threw a pin glass at Henry and brought the agenda to her mouth.
“A few days ago, I got a call from Baosantz Metal in China.”
“If it’s Baoshanz Metal, it’s a state-owned steel company in China. What did you say?”
“They said they would sign a purchase contract with us, Hoho.”
As soon as Henry and I heard those words, our eyes met.
It was because I thought Andy Forescue was moving from behind.
“Why do you two look like that? I’ve been holding out until now to tell you in person because it’s good news.”
She seems to believe that her lobbying allowed her to do business with Baosantz Metal.
That may be the case, but seeing that something that has not been done until now suddenly happened, it was highly likely that it was the breath of Forescue Metal.
“Lina, it’s like you’re pouring cold water on it, so it’s a bit like that, but don’t get excited and listen to me.”
I explained to her about the back deal between Foresq Metal and Seongsam C&T.
And in addition to that, he also informed about the political relations between Bosco, the Blue House, and Seongsam C&T in Korea.
“It’s complicated, but the key is that Sungsam C&T has communicated with Forescu Metal and will cause a delivery problem during the transaction with Baosantz Metal.”
“I came out to make a deal with Baosantz Metal for that.
“When exactly did you contact Baosantz Metal?”
“It was three days ago. I got a call on my way to Sydney.”
“For reference, it was a week ago that we received a call from Seongsam C&T that we had decided to invest in equity. Even considering it was the end of the year, it was coincidentally that we received a call at the same time.”
“How much is Seongsam C&T investing?”
“They said they’d do it for 200 million dollars. I mean, it’s not even a funny offer. They know for sure that Bosco has three billion dollars.”
“You seem to be very sympathetic to us. Hohoho.”
Lina’s mouth was smiling, but her eyes were quite frightening.
“I’m thinking of rejecting it for now. I can’t do a capital increase with that amount.”
“Of course it should. I thought well. But, knowing their intentions, are you going to entrust the infrastructure work to them?”
“Yeah, you tried to hit us in the back, so we have to pay you back.”
“how?”
“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of that.”
“Are you Henry?”
In response to her question, Henry gave some suggestions.
Then, Lina made a fuss and sued her.
“Ho-ho-ho-ho, that’s a good idea. I’m looking forward to it, I hope it comes.”
“But can’t we bring Baosantz Metal to us? If they raise our hand, they’ll be able to fuck not only Seongsam C&T, but also Forescu Metal.”
“It won’t be easy, because Wang Wei, chairman of Baosantz Metal, has been with Andy for a long time.”
“It hasn’t been easy so far. But that’s where they gave us a chance. The door that was tightly closed has been opened, so the chances aren’t zero.”
“That’s right. It was frustrating because we didn’t even get a chance to meet, but we’ll be able to meet face to face.”
Business also starts with people-to-people relationships.
Just being able to meet her just as she said was half the deal.
“Do you know what kind of person Wang Wei is?”
“I heard that he is more of a politician than a businessman. And since he is in charge of a state-owned company, he has a lot of connections with the high-ranking Chinese Communist Party.
“It’s hard to reach with political connections.”
“Besides, little is known about his personal connections. However, from the information I have obtained, I heard that he travels to and from Hong Kong frequently.”
“You don’t know who you’ll meet there?”
“Yeah, I tried to attach a person, but the bodyguards of that person were not normal. I tried to figure out the movement from a distance, but it all caught on. Even though they were quite pros.”
“Okay. Then, leave Chairman Wang Wei to Jin. You will take care of the Louis Hill site.”
“Are you going to leave it to Edward?”
Lina looks at me with a look of whether it’s okay.
I was just showing a smiling face.
“As I said earlier, I have to take care of the work of Seongsam C&T and also check the trends in Forescue Metal. Is there anyone other than this friend who is having trouble with hands?”
“Are you really okay Edward? Chairman Wang Wei is not just a businessman, he’s also a dangerous person.”
“It can be dangerous because it is related to a Communist Party official. But if you think about it the other way around, wouldn’t it be reassuring to have such a person on our side?”
If I could hold the hilt, there wouldn’t be a better sword.
“Okay. If we even broke the deal with Bosco and even Baosantz Metal became our customer, I think we should pay enough compensation to Edward.”
“It’s not a reward. What do you say to each other on the same boat?”
“Give and take has to be certain. And isn’t there a sales incentive?
“……haha.”
I’m grateful for what you give me, but after receiving the Maserati, I’m really looking forward to what I’ll give you next.
Would you like to give me a house or a building?
Come to think of it, there is still no building to be used as the headquarters of All Mining.
I’m looking forward to it, hmm.
***
Hong Kong.
Its position in Asia is special.
If Hong Kong was a shopping mecca when Jessica and Stopover visited in the past, Hong Kong, visited by business, was functioning as a financial and logistics hub and an external window for the Chinese economy.
“What do you think?”
Yoohyeon shook her head at my question.
“I am very vigilant. If I follow you, it will take a hundred or a hundred.”
“Yeah? Hmm…”
“Can’t we formally ask for an interview and meet? Baosantz Metal has not expressed its intention to do business with Louis Hill Holdings.”
“It’s not like we’re meeting comfortably without any information. If we have something, we’ll have to use it to make it our side.”
I came to Hong Kong with only Yoohyeon and Lucy.
It was because he couldn’t follow Chairman Wang Wei by wearing bodyguards one after another.
“CEO, it’s not like this, but you ask an expert.”
“Lucy and Lina also tried to attach a person and they said it failed. But does Lucy know of a better expert than the person he wrote?”
“…If Chairman Danehart was like that, it would be difficult to expect anything from an expert I know.”
Lucy had a somewhat shaky expression on her face.
“That’s why Henry was right for me. So don’t be disheartened.”
“Do you have a way?”
“Okay. Yoohyeon-ah.”
“yes.”
“Are there bodyguards disguised as ordinary people?”
“there is.”
“Can you name just one person who keeps a reasonable distance?”
I put my hat on tight and walked towards the person Yoohyeon had designated.
Then he bowed his head, pretended to be on his cell phone, and tapped him.
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay.”
When I returned to the party after bowing, Lucy asked.
“CEO, did you attach a tracking device to that person?”
“No. If you did, you would know right away, how would you do that?”
“Then what did you do?”
“Just skinship? Haha.”
“yes?”
“Let’s go out for now. Don’t worry about work, let’s go eat something delicious.”
I marked the bodyguards watching Wang Wei anytime, anywhere, so the follow-up is almost over.
“I’m starving to death, but I’ll wake up soon.”
At my prompt, Yoohyeon and Lucy faced each other, took a deep breath, and followed me.
Really, don’t worry.
