“This is directly related to the fundamental problem that politicians have.”
“……?”
“Politicians are representatives of the people. What do you think they need to do that?”
“The people will support it.”
“Yes, there is no class system as in the past, but because they are elected by voting, they use all means to get the votes of the people. Do you know what they do after they come to power?”
“Um… you’re going to wield your power to siphon off blood money somehow?”
From racing horse slush funds to the Louis Hill infrastructure construction used as a lobby.
Perhaps it is because he suffered corruption one after another, that is the first thing that comes to mind.
“Hahaha, that’s also true, but put aside such personal desires and try to approach it from a grandiose level.”
“Because it’s a grand victory… I guess we’re going to have various policies to show the people well? That’s how we will continue to receive support.”
“That’s right. The easiest way for those in power to use it is to raise money. It’s most effective to instill the people’s perception that it’s good to live under the current government. It was the Norwegian sovereign wealth fund that was in direct opposition to the attributes of those in power. At the time of the creation of the sovereign wealth fund, the powerful government officials did not spend the enormous oil money in front of them, only for the future. If only one tenth of that money had been used, the welfare level of the people would have risen tremendously and the approval rating would have continued to rise. .”
That being said, it’s definitely great.
In Korea, there is a widespread perception that taxes are blind money.
If the previous administration was receiving 100,000 won, the current administration would have to give it at least the same amount to not look hateful.
But if I say, let’s cut it off and save that money from now on, will the people easily accept it?
If I didn’t receive it from the beginning, I don’t know if I can’t get what I’ve been receiving.
Again, it seemed to me why only Norway succeeded in doing it.
“Of course, managing the fund after creating it is important, but the key is whether you can raise chickens that can lay golden eggs.”
I shook my head.
Essentially, politicians don’t have time to raise those chickens.
So, before laying the eggs, they pluck their hair and boil the soup to avoid starvation.
‘Cause I’m hungry right now
“The same is true of the Korean government’s overseas resource development, because it will not achieve results within the term of office.”
“That’s right. If we proceed step by step over a long period of time, we will invest 40 billion dollars at once and proceed in several places at the same time? It sounds plausible, but it is an unrealistic policy. It is an investment method that a company can never have.”
The mining industry has high risks.
Investing 40 trillion won without any countermeasures against trial and error was obviously suspicious.
“Resource development is just a package, and in reality, there is a high possibility that the blood tax will be robbed like the last time.”
“That’s what I think too. It’s from the old woman’s heart, but don’t even think about having anything to do with it like last time. At that time, you said you wanted to overcome the trauma, and you tried to test me, so you agreed, but this time is different. It must have been prepared with great care by the one holding it. A wild beast doesn’t let an opponent touch its prey.”
Henry had a sharp gaze when giving strict instructions.
“Don’t worry. There’s nothing more to do with it, since I gave away the infrastructure work and took care of it.”
“Can I trust you?”
“Ugh, don’t you believe me?”
“Clairvoyants have good eyes but bad ears. Neither Gary nor you are a good listener, so I’m emphasizing it several times.”
“Yes, yes. I see. I won’t even look at you that way.”
I waved my hands and said.
And then I asked a question.
“But Henry, you have a sovereign wealth fund.”
“……?”
“How do you plan to make it? Raising money is important, but what’s important is after that.”
It will take time, but we will be able to raise chickens that lay golden eggs.
However, after that, he is nothing more than a wealthy chaebol, and it is not in line with Henry’s will to set up a private foundation with that money to make donations.
More deeply than that, it should be able to have a direct impact on Australia’s economy and well-being.
To do that, we need government help.
“We are preparing people who can be of strength. We need to gather people with political interests, so let’s focus on raising chickens for now.”
“All right.”
“And while you were in Korea, we went through the process of establishing a corporation. Now, if you write the name of the corporation on the documents and only add your name to the list of shareholders, it’s over.”
“What about the mine development rights? Are the discussions with Jencock over?”
“It was almost as if it was finished from the time we were together on the Louis Hill project. The remaining negotiation proposals were all done according to our proposal, and Lina took advantage of it. After the establishment of the corporation, the mine development rights will be transferred.”
Like Jencock, we were able to develop mines on our own.
Of course, there is still a lot of work to be done.
You will have to tour all the areas that have obtained development rights, and you will also have to acquire companies with mining technology.
First of all, putting the Louis Hill project on track and strengthening the relationship with Jencock is the first priority.
“Did you think of a company name?”
Henry had long said that he would make me a major shareholder, and told him to think of a company name.
After thinking about it for a while, one thing came to mind.
“All-mining, how are you?”
“It’s all-mining… Heh heh, that’s pretty blatant.”
“Because it is an easy-to-understand expression of our company’s identity.”
“Okay. Our business is not limited to one or two minerals.”
“I’m glad you like it. It looks simple, but I was quite worried.”
All Mining.
It literally means mining everything.
Currently, it is only iron ore, but in the future, various mineral resources will be mined.
“You did a great job. Please take good care of all mining in the future, Representative Jin.”
“Is there any doubt, Chairman?”
The sound of our laughter echoed through the penthouse of the P&B Tower.
This is where it really starts.
***
Immigrant life in Sydney.
Dong-Woo Dong and Myung-Sook Kim came all the way to Australia for their son and daughter, but it was not easy to adapt.
Although I decided that I had to take the language problem of course, the inconveniences from everyday life were beyond my imagination, and the food did not suit my mouth.
Fortunately, Sydney has a more developed Korean community than other cities, so it was fortunate that I was able to adjust to Koreatown somewhat.
It was because there was no problem with using Korean, and various foodstuffs and industrial products were no different from those of Korea.
Also, I was able to meet people I could talk to in a foreign country.
“Aren’t you ready yet?”
“Wait a minute. What did you buy so much?”
Kim Myung-sook frowned and sprayed the spray on her hair.
Whenever I go somewhere, I get annoyed because of my husband who wakes up early in the morning and trembles even though there is still a lot of time left.
“It’s already parked outside. Don’t make people wait, do it quickly.”
“Since you left Busan, you came here and there, baby.”
Kim Myung-sook, who had her hair trimmed in a hurry, left the room, and Dong-woo Jin went straight to the front door.
A Rolls-Royce was waiting with the ignition turned on right in front of the two men as they left the front door.
“Good Morning, Mr. Jin and Mrs, Kim.”
The strong white man immediately got out of the car and opened the rear door of the car.
He was Darren, the chauffeur and bodyguard assigned to him by his son.
“Where do you wanna go?”
At his question, Kim Myung-sook tapped her husband’s arm.
“You tell me.”
“Catch it. Catch it, please.”
Jin-Woo just said those words and slipped into the back seat.
Kim Myung-suk also coughed and sat next to him.
“You haven’t found a Korean secretary yet?”
At that question, Kim Myung-sook shook her head.
“I said I said. We need a secretary.”
“Wow? Yoosung will do it or not. I just have to wait until I get used to life here.”
“Malako, it’s useless, but I spend money. It’s a machine that you get used to as you go through life.”
“Then you tell me to look at me every day, ugh.”
“What did you do while you were at the bank? You didn’t even learn English properly.”
“I’m going to learn English because the local bank will soon meet foreign investors. Still, there are people my age who can do this.”
“So, every day, you only talk about kill, home, supermarket, please.”
“Grammo, you do it from now on. It will be Gramure.”
“I get it.”
“I said I got it. Don’t gossip later.”
“Oh, I know, I don’t know.”
Kim Myung-sook, who had heard it a few times so far, gave a rough answer with an expression of whether he could not do it.
In the midst of a fight, Rolls-Royce entered the city and soon arrived in front of the Church of Faith.
“Sir. just arrived. But the parking lot is full, today. so you go first. I will find other parking space. Let’s see.)”
Kim Myung-sook shed a sweat at the lengthy English that made her mind confused.
“What are you doing? I’m asking.”
“What do you mean?”
“What will you do in the future?”
Kim Myung-sook, who was noticing, got out of the car as if to run away.
Jin-Woo looked at her back and grinned.
“Uh-huh! Good job, Darren.”
***
This is my third visit.
The couple, who entered the church of faith, walked around familiarly and greeted people they had known in the meantime.
Although I am not a devout believer, it didn’t take long for them to melt into each other because they believed in Catholicism in Korea as well.
Were you in your early 40s then?
A woman with wavy hair that reached her shoulders and wearing sunglasses approached.
“Oh, madam. When did you come? You came with the boss today.”
“The secretary also came out early.”
“Aww, you can call me comfortably. Have you forgotten my name? Can I tell you again?”
“Iraye. That… machino. Yeah, Linda. Linda Kim I’m not.”
“Oh my gosh, you have a really good memory, ho ho ho.”
Kim Myung-sook once again sweated and smiled awkwardly.
Thinking about what a Korean’s name is.
“But you two look so good. How are you so good looking?”
Kim Kyung-ja naturally crossed Kim Myung-sook’s arms and occupied a place of worship.
“Uh huh, it’s good, it’ll be good.”
“No. It’s not the first time, but there aren’t many people who come together like this on a regular basis. Still, I’m the secretary.”
“Everyone in the Hagisa church knows it, so I know it well.”
“I’m living in Australia, are there any inconveniences? I heard that all the family members came together, but it must be very difficult at the beginning of immigration.”
“My son is taking good care of me, so I’m having a good time.”
“I heard that your son runs a big business in Australia, is that right?”
“This time, they say they’re going to start a company, but we don’t know.”
“I see. Didn’t you say you have a real daughter? What does your daughter do?”
“Heigoma, I’m sorry. I’m clinging to my little brother, and I’m not going to fall off. I’m sorry. Even if Kashina tells me to go to graduate school soon, I don’t listen and I’m black inside now.”
At Kim Myung-sook’s words, Kikwang’s eyes flashed across Kim Kyung-ja’s eyes.
“I’m cautious about saying this. When families come to Australia together, it’s usually for educating their children or when their children do business here and move over together. Your wife’s family is the latter, right?”
“Yeah yeah, that’s right.”
“At that time, the other brothers and sisters depend on the child in the business. I have to find my own job, but since I’m abroad, I don’t know anyone and it doesn’t work well.”
“That’s right. When Kashina comes, she’ll be a master’s daughter, but after coming to Grad, she’ll forget to change her attitude.”
“It’s because the things your daughter was trying to do didn’t work out. Your wife has to give you direction. It’s not like I’ve seen that happen once or twice.”
“I don’t know what Ji doesn’t know, so will you give me the right direction?”
Kim Kyung-ja opened her mouth as if waiting.
