Compared to Seol Kyung-taek, his eyes were more aggressive, but Seol Kyung-taek was sharper.
“Did you say Kim Jae-goo is the president?”
“I’m just a professional investor. But usually they call me president.”
He had no intention of opening J&H Co., Ltd. to him. There is 7 trillion won in Korea, but would you think that you would be running a company with more assets in the United States?
If I had thought of it on that scale, it was clear that I would have taken a more cautious approach.
“Are you the member of the National Assembly, Lee Yu-san?”
“That’s right. You don’t need to introduce me, right?”
It was a confident tone.
Since they are in the position of handling the laws of the Republic of Korea, it must be because entrepreneurs bowed their heads first.
But I didn’t care.
It was because I was thinking of making Seol Kyung-taek, not Yu-san, win at all costs. Rather, his arrogant attitude contrasted with Seol Gyeong-taek and only served as an opportunity to harden my heart.
“Because you’re so famous.”
“Then the conversation will be fast.”
I didn’t like the look of the negotiations being over, but I didn’t have to pretend right here.
‘It’s moderately circumscribed, and it makes me fall from exhaustion.’
It was best to manage the fishery in an ambiguous manner. Since I had never managed a fishery with my own will since I was born, I wasn’t confident, but wouldn’t it be fine if I responded appropriately, except for the words I wanted?
“As you know, the general election is just around the corner.”
“When is the general election?”
“hahahaha. Are you deliberately pretending not to know?”
I knew about it, but I didn’t know the exact date. When I was at the company, it was a legal holiday, so I took care of it, but now I didn’t care because I was in a position that was no different from an unemployed person.
“It’s April 11 next year.”
“okay.”
There really isn’t much left.
‘Today is December 30th, so there are only about 103 days left.’
It was less than 4 months. On TV, one or two candidates started to appear, but they did not start in earnest.
An all-out war will be held a month before the general election.
‘Because in the first place, they said they would do candidate registration with less than a month left.’
It was the content I was looking for to recommend Han Seong-min as a candidate. If the candidate registration is over, we won’t be able to recommend him as a candidate.
“Do you know that there are many people willing to spend tens of millions of won just to have a chance to eat with me?”
Lee Yoo-san showed dislike for me, probably not liking the way I acted indifferently. Greed seemed to stick to the tiger-like face.
“Are you a member of Congress who pays for money and eats for you?”
“If that’s the case, wouldn’t there be a chance to have a meal with President Kim like this?”
“That too.”
There was a table full of delicious hanjeongsik, but no one was eating. Even Yusan just moved the food to a plate, but didn’t put it in his mouth.
“Have you ever made a lot of money, Mr. Jaegu Kim?”
“I made quite a bit of money.”
“It’s not the money someone else gave you, it’s something you’ve earned yourself.”
‘I earned everything myself…’
My grandfather gave me a cheat skill to tell me tomorrow’s stock price, but I was the one who commissioned the program development and made money through it.
I wouldn’t have touched this much money just by buying and selling with my hands.
“I’m telling you that President Kim doesn’t seem to know much, but you have to be able to touch the law to make a lot of money.”
I had nothing to say, so I kept my mouth shut, so he started pouring out what he wanted to say.
“Do you plan to run for the National Assembly, President Kim?”
It seemed that he wanted to talk about becoming a member of the National Assembly or pushing a member of the National Assembly. Doing something transparent must mean that you need my help.
I just wanted to take a bite.
“yes.”
“If you don’t mean to… what did you just say?”
Yu-san’s face stiffened for a moment, then relaxed. As a seasoned pro, the time was fleeting, but it was clearly bewildered.
“Isn’t the gold badge nice?”
“Ha ha ha… you mean this?”
He pointed to his badge.
“Yes. I want to try it once.”
It’s false. Members of the National Assembly do not want to do it even if they are told to do it. It was annoying to make a promise to do this or that in front of people, and meeting people to make it come true was even more annoying.
“Keuheum. Then President Kim wanted to run.”
“yes.”
“What do you think is the percentage of independents who are elected to the National Assembly?”
“If only that one person needs to be elected, why is the ratio important?”
Yusan took a deep breath and exhaled slowly through his nose. Even the sound of his breathing made me feel the anger.
‘It must be frustrating.’
As an outsider, I thought it was really immature.
“The odds of a person with no political base running as an independent and winning are close to zero.”
“Is that so?”
“But if you run as a candidate from a credible party, your odds of winning go up significantly, even if you don’t have a political base.”
It was natural.
Because most of the people took 1 or 2. In the case of taking more than 3 times, it was the case that the person had a special career or was a person who had an existing political life.
Of course, I wasn’t in either case.
I was accused of embezzlement by Dokgo Group, I filmed a kissing scene in Della Foster’s music video, and I was excited to do an interview after finding a treasure ship.
‘Even if I think about it, I won’t film it.’
However, I was curious to what extent Lee Yoo-san thought of me.
“Then, if I enter the Senator’s party, which constituency can you give me?”
“It’s not a matter for me to decide alone.”
where to get out
“I’m just curious about what the congressman thinks. Think of it as just the two of you and talk comfortably.”
Yusan Lee paused for a moment with a serious expression.
Finally his lips opened.
“I think···.”
A friend is a friend of a guy who freezes to death
“If President Kim has the heart to enter the political world, I think he needs to relax.”
When I asked which constituency he would give me if I joined Lee Yu-san’s party, the answer came back.
‘It’s clear that he doesn’t intend to take care of it.’
His power comes from a gold badge, but there was no way he would give a gold badge to someone with money. Seeing that he came to see me in person, he must have checked how much money was in his bank account.
So, wouldn’t that heavy butt ‘old man’ move directly? It’s not easy to find a 7-trillion-dollar hukou.
Besides, even when I looked, I felt like there was someone behind me. If it wasn’t for stock cheats, I’ve collected money that I couldn’t have collected, and I’ve made countless connections.
Right after he went to prison after being falsely accused, he had no money. Anyone who does research will know that. I sold it to my parents’ store, and I couldn’t even restore it.
After that, he suddenly established the best product company, shot Dokgo Group, and now met with politician Seol Kyung-taek.
Since I bought a house in Hannam-dong and flew abroad every single day, it would look like I was blindly spending my money.
In the meantime, if you put your bankbook together, it contained more than 7 trillion won. A man who also had a telecommunications company in his hands, but there was no way he didn’t know at least one person at the bank.
‘They would think that the money they earned from stocks was earned through some kind of strategy.’
It was an unbelievable rate of return, even when I thought about it.
Now, the seed has grown so much that I couldn’t see much fun in terms of profit rate, but more than 1 trillion won in profit was coming into my bank account every week.
Of course, there were times when more came in.
At least these days, stocks are being rolled mainly in overseas corporations, so there was no big change in the amount in the bank account in Korea.
“I don’t know why you talked about the party when you had no intention of giving it to the district.”
“I never said I wouldn’t.”
He, too, started pushing.
“Then which region would you like?”
It was easy to let go when I had no intention of getting it anyway. My words, which had no intention of holding hands in the first place, continued to circulate.
After hovering in the same spot for a while, it was Yusan Mountain who raised his hand first.
“President Kim. I think you should take a little wider view.”
“What do you mean?”
“The odds of success for someone new to politics are extremely low. How can I appeal to people about President Kim?”
“The lucky man who found the treasure ship. I will turn this city into a treasure island.”
It’s bullsh*t even I think.
Yu-san’s expression hardened.
“It’s hard to appeal to that extent. If President Kim wants to become a member of the National Assembly, he has to make history. If you apply properly, we will consider the proportional representative position.”
The aide pursed his lips as if he had something to say. However, after looking at Yu-san’s eyes, he kept his mouth shut.
“Proportional representative is not in good shape. Kim Jae-goo, a member of the Mapo-eul National Assembly like the lawmaker. Wouldn’t it be cool to be elected like this?”
Yu-san snorted.
“Not now. Boss.”
“Do you really think no?”
“If you really want, I’ll prepare a seat in the south.”
“I like the metropolitan area.”
he let out a deep sigh.
“President Kim is still young. Take a long look. Then you can do great things.”
If it wasn’t because he didn’t want to take care of me, it would have been true. However, since I knew the true nature of Mt. Yu, none of what he said touched me.
It was human nature that if I couldn’t get it, the other person couldn’t get it either.
“That’s a good word. Then, if you look at it for a long time and get close to the congressman, good things will happen.”
“of course.”
Yoosan showed a satisfied smile for the first time. I wondered how many points the figure hidden behind that hideous smile would score in the eyes of trust.
‘Use the eyes of trust.’
[Reliability 22%]
ah. She’s on the same level as Seo Eun-chae. Seo Eun-chae must have been a vessel to serve as a member of the National Assembly. A man named me couldn’t bear to put such a large bowl… is a piece of sh*t.
‘Didn’t you come out to attack me openly?’
If so, I could have been trolling with peace of mind.
“Then let’s be friends from now on.”
“It’s a good choice.”
I lightly shook hands with Yoosan. He sat back down with a satisfied expression.
“Let’s eat. Let’s cool down.”
The conversation had already progressed quite a bit, so the food was cold, but it tasted like a high-end restaurant. I picked up my favorite ribs and was chewing on it, when Yoosan hinted at me.
“This time, our camp has a project to do in Mapo Eul-gu. Can you help the boss?”
“How can I help you?”
It’s probably about asking for money.
“I’d like you to give me a little support.”
“It seems that sponsorship is a bit difficult.”
“Didn’t you just ask to be friends?”
“Yes. They are friendly.”
“If you’re friends, shouldn’t you help each other?”
I knew it would be like this.
He chewed on his ribs and opened his mouth.
“Ah. Exchange of money is what kind of friendship is. Even if you don’t have money, you have to be friends to be a real friend. I want to be a real friend with you.”
Yu-san’s face twisted slightly.
‘Still, I manage my expression to some extent.’
he opened his mouth again.
“I know that, but…”
No matter how much I persuaded them, the money never came out of my bank account.
‘Who invests in 22% reliability?’
At any rate, I was naive in thinking he might be sincere.
***
“What kind of bastard do you have?”
Rep. Lee Yu-san broke Kim Jae-gu’s tie on the spot as soon as he left. There was no reward in managing facial expressions in front of him.
‘I met him in person, but he gave me a penny. What kind of friend is a friend to a person who will freeze to death?’
Out of all the guys I’ve met in the last 10 years, he’s the most stupid. He turned against his aide, Nam Il-seung.
“Are you doing that because you don’t know? Or are you doing that because you know? What do you think when you see it?”
He looked at Yu-san’s eyes. Face and expression full of confidence. He was angry that Kim Jae-goo did not know his true intentions.
If he said that he seemed to have been played by Kim Jae-gu, it was clear that he would strike a gyeong.
“He’s an idiot.”
“Yes. He’s a very stupid guy. I don’t know who he is, but I picked a guy who’s like a boss.”
They were convinced that there was someone behind Kim Jae-gu. However, no matter how much I investigated and caught up, I couldn’t catch the rear.
It was the Taesan Group that was suspected, but Kim Jae-gu had a capital of a scale that Taesan alone could not make.
It was clear that there must be something bigger.
Yu-san gnashed his teeth.
“There’s no way Seol Gyeong-taek made the move himself, and I wonder who the heck is behind it.”
“Rep. Seol Gyeong-taek may have moved it himself.”
“That guy? Nope. He’s more upright than he looks. He’s not a vessel to play behind the scenes.”
The evaluation of Seol Kyung-taek was accurate.
He wasn’t the type to use someone else as a boss to achieve his own ends. He was the type to risk his face and step forward if necessary.
That appealed to the people and set them apart from the existing selfish politicians. Rather than earning money while doing politics, the image of him focusing on his work even while spending it moved the hearts of the middle class.
