“Because after the general election, my brother will have some spare time. Before that, we need to gain the upper hand.”
Chairman Sung Yo-han was not an easy opponent.
‘Anyway, he’s a person with low trust. If I’m going to have a relationship with Eun-seong, Sung So-hee would be better.’
“Okay. I’ll make a decision before that.”
got up from the seat The remaining ribs shimmered in front of my eyes, but it seemed that the form would not live up to me if I steamed here more.
“I’ll just go.”
“Thank you for being here today. I hope to hear a good message from you.”
“Ah, talking on a cell phone is dangerous. When contacting me, please send me a message in person. Otherwise, please come to the school in time for Ha-yeon to leave school.”
Since Sung Yo-han was in Lee Yu-san’s camp, he never knew when he would be watched by Han Jung-taek’s camp. At that time, my tail shouldn’t have been caught.
Sung So-hee tried to ask something, but shut her mouth.
“All right.”
It seemed that the initiative had shifted a little this way.
***
The two weeks passed by in a flash.
We decided to proceed with the investment requested by Sung So-hee. Seeing that she even wrote a contract to repay half of it in case of a loss, it seemed quite urgent.
I picked Ha-yeon up and took her to the academy. At the same time, he did not neglect the work of Han Jung-taek’s alliance run by Dokgo-gap.
Thanks to their hard work, candidates in the camp of Yusan Lee were divided, but Jungtaek Han’s camp was not intact either.
The atmosphere at the meeting grew more and more gloomy.
The ratio of candidates currently under review was 20% for Han Jung-taek camp, 55% for Yusan camp, and 25% for the rest. The increase in the middle class compared to before may not have been a good thing for Han Jung-taek.
Someone sighed deeply.
“Is there a chance of winning?”
Everyone’s eyes turned to Dokgo Gab.
he opened his mouth slowly.
Don’t you know why I tried to join the Union?
The members of the group held their breath and waited for Dokgo Gap’s answer. Since he was the man who created the coalition to support Han Jung-taek, there had to be an alternative.
Dokgo Gab paused for a moment. In that short time, two thoughts were colliding in his head.
‘Who should I trust?’
A few days ago, I received a call from Yusan. It was a threat that something bad might happen if he thought about continuing the fight.
‘I expected it if it was just a threat.’
Carrots also came with it.
He said that if he backed down, he would help him take control of the Dokgo Group. It was a proposal to give the vacant Dokgo Jin seat to the union and accept him as their member.
Now that Gong-cheon’s defeat was already confirmed, he was the only one who could definitely survive. In particular, along with the fact that there was no special envoy from Dokgo-jin for Liberation Day, the offer to control the media entering the prison was impossible to refuse.
There was only one thing that bothered me.
‘I haven’t heard from President Kim Jae-gu yet.’
I’m busy with company work, but the general election work is going back together, so I couldn’t talk to Kim Jae-gu before setting up a meeting. Every time I had a hard time, his advice was helpful, so I felt like I could get some help this time too.
Dokgo Gab shut his mouth.
“I’ll think about it a little longer. Let’s meet again in 30 minutes.”
You have to finish it now and get out so you can live.
I knew it in my head, but I was uneasy that I had come to a conclusion without Kim Jae-gu.
He was an unknown man. I tried to be friendly, but I never had a chance to talk openly.
‘I’m glad I invited CEO Kim Jae-goo as a member.’
The cornered rat’s field of view narrowed. Being chased by Yu-san, his field of vision narrowed to the point where he couldn’t think of anything other than holding hands with Yu-san.
At that time, Kim Jae-gu’s face caught my eye.
A man who is on the rise with the strength of the Carver Group. Strangely lucky, such as finding a shipwreck. I couldn’t make a decision without hearing his opinion.
He had already requested three people from the three telecommunication companies to delete his call records from the telecommunication companies. He was acutely aware of his limitations and prepared for the thought that he might have to step out of here.
Han Jung-taek lost.
If he continued to support those who lost the fight for the cause of loyalty, he himself could also go into the pit.
‘It was impossible to beat Yusan with Han Jung-taek. I was too conceited.’
At least, if the remaining candidates in Lee Yu-san’s camp were weak and Han Jung-taek’s candidates were strong, it would have been worth trying. But while they attacked Yusan’s candidates, Yusan wasn’t idle either.
Most of the major districts where the party’s strength was strong were taken away, so it was practically a complete defeat.
But Seol Kyung-taek was different.
Rather, it was Seol Kyung-taek who benefited the most from this fight. His faction did not suffer a loss, which gave them a relative advantage.
‘What if President Kim Jae-gu intentionally used Han Joong-taek to promote Seol Gyeong-taek?’
It was quite possible. Rather, it was to the point of lamenting why he hadn’t recalled it yet.
But at the same time, there was hope.
“President Kim Jae-gu, can we talk for a moment?”
“Yes. You do.”
“Minjae hyung. I’m going to talk alone for a while.”
“Yes. Have a good talk.”
Dokgo-gap headed out of the coffee shop with Kim Jae-gu.
***
Dokgo Gab’s face was quite dark. It was clear that there was something to be decided so big that a shadow was cast over his always expressionless face.
‘Because the Han Jung-taek camp has no hope anymore. He must have been trying to give up.’
It was worth it. No matter how hard he struggled, there was no way for Han Jung-taek to defeat Yu-san in the current situation. He fulfilled his role as a weapon to cut down the power of Mt. Yu, and was oxidized fiercely.
I could only say that.
Dokgo Gap came into the kitchen and stopped walking. His nonchalant eyes turned to me.
“Whose side is Kim Jae-gu on?”
It was a question that struck a chord.
‘but. There’s no way I didn’t notice.’
Still, I didn’t want to say it out of my mouth.
“What do you mean? Between the same boat.”
“I was overlooking it because he actively came up with ideas to reduce the power of Lee Yu-san, but there is a Carver Group behind CEO Kim Jae-gu.”
no. That’s not it. But it was natural to be so mistaken.
“There’s no way Carver Group would have raised Han Jung-taek’s hand. President Kim Jae-goo can’t believe…”
He stopped talking and took a deep breath.
“Didn’t you think that you would become a member of Congressman Han Joong-taek from the beginning?”
“·······.”
“I’m not trying to interrogate you.”
There was a sense of urgency in his eyes.
“Are you in touch with Representative Seol Gyeong-taek?”
I could use the word inner pain, but I felt that I chose the word with great care. There was no doubt that it was a desperate situation.
Nevertheless, the ability to maintain a poker face was highly praised.
The fact that he gave Seol Kyung-taek an honorific title that he hadn’t even given to Han Jung-taek clearly showed what he wanted.
It was time to slowly come out.
“Do you still think there is a chance that Congressman Han Joong-taek will be elected?”
“I don’t think it’s less than 5 percent. As time goes on, the odds will get less and less.”
“What do you think is the chance that Congressman Seol Gyeong-taek will be elected?”
“I totally ate this one.”
Dokgo Gap smiled.
“When I first met President Kim Jae-goo, I thought the probability was only about 30%, but now it’s almost half and half.”
“What do you think?”
“What do you mean?”
“Do you think what you’ve done so far has been useless?”
he thought deeply.
“The things I’ve done so far…”
“It was an activity to get Congressman Seol Gyeong-taek elected. It was not useless at all.”
Persuade Dokgo Gap
And it will convince others to join him. And I will drag them all and take them to Seol Gyeong-taek’s camp.
‘I have to make Seol Kyung-taek the president to establish social justice and mine the underwater assets I discovered as a treasure chest (medium).’
It seems like my dark inner thoughts are mixed in the cause, but I decided to go over it for now.
“You’ve been contacted by Representative Lee Yu-san.”
Haven’t you been working on it until now?
It was clear that if Lee Yu-san was not an idiot, he would have already revealed his identity. To stop fighting in such a situation was practically tolerating the damage of the group.
Dokgo Gap nodded with a polite expressionless face.
“I knew it.”
“President Kim Jae-gu won’t lie.”
Perhaps carrots were also presented. Because Dokgo-gap was not a man who moved only with a whip.
“What suggestions did you make?”
“He said he would help me solidify my position in Dokgo Group.”
“When are you going to change your name?”
It reminded me of a contract I had made with him before.
“I tried to change it after the general election. Right now, there are too many things to worry about, so it’s difficult to decide on a mission. I thought to build a consumer-friendly image by holding a contest.”
I had some thoughts.
He raised his head with a serious face.
“First of all, the general election comes first.”
“Lee Yu-san has already abandoned the Dokgo Group. Would it be difficult to abandon a person who abandoned the group once?”
If you are a single person, you must know that Yusan is good at cutting people out.
“Rep. Seol Gyeong-taek, please come into the camp. I will tell you well.”
“Are you sure you’re okay?”
“These are the people who will be the number one contributors to this general election, so you should serve them well.”
A glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes. It was a talent if it was a talent to express that much with only eyes on an expressionless face.
“You did a good job asking President Kim Jae-gu. I almost made the wrong decision.”
“Instead, there is one condition.”
“What is?”
“President Min-jae Jeong, Executive Director Yu-gyeol Yu, and Vice President Yoo-min Choi must all be taken with them.”
“Leave that to me.”
He nodded.
“Would you like to go in now?”
“yes.”
Upon entering the cafe, the atmosphere inside was bustling. I saw people whose faces were flushed red as if they were raising their voices.
“Everyone pay attention.”
All eyes were focused on the voice of Dokgo Gab.
“From now on, I will make an urgent announcement. If you hear this story and think that it does not match the direction you are thinking, please apply for a personal meeting.”
“What is it? Has your opinion changed?”
From nob le mt l dot com
Jung Min-jae quietly rose from his seat.
“yes.”
“I’m looking forward to it.”
“First, let me tell you the bad news. There is less than 5% chance that Rep. Han Joong-taek will defeat Rep. Lee Yu-san and be elected.”
Yuhan-gyeol asked.
“Then don’t you think it’s not possible?”
“That’s right. That’s why I’m thinking of abandoning Hanjungtaek.”
The members started to hum.
“There is no place for us to enter this heritage union. Are you really going to end it like this?”
“It’s difficult to be with my father because he’s there. I came all this way by trusting only Chairman Dokgo-gap…”
“So I’m trying to offer an alternative.”
Everyone swallowed and looked at the poisoned glove.
“We will support Seol Gyeong-taek.”
“Suddenly Seol Kyung-taek?”
A man jumped up from his seat. He glared at him with furious eyes.
“Wasn’t it obviously a meeting to elect Congressman Han Joong-taek? If the anti-conglomerate Congressman Seol Kyung-taek is elected, what will happen to us?”
“Is Congressman Seol Gyeong-taek an anti-conglomerate?”
“You’re trying to lower the domestic market share by opening the market and wither it. Then the power of the chaebols will weaken.”
“Then, Mr. Park Kwang-hoo, leave.”
“what?”
Park Gwang-hoo flinched.
“I don’t think the domestic market is everything. A bowl that would satisfy a small market would not fit our group.”
“What do you mean…”
Rarely, the corner of Dokgo Gap’s mouth twisted upward. Park Gwang-hoo sighed and clicked his tongue and sat down.
“You didn’t say no.”
“I see. Then I want you to think carefully.”
The atmosphere got dark. If he said he would not join Seol Kyung-taek’s camp, he would be seen as an incompetent person.
“Han Jung-taek was just a sacrifice to reduce Lee Yu-san’s stamina. Now, shouldn’t we bet on the side with the odds?”
He looked around the crowd.
“If you join Senator Kyung-taek Seol, you will be treated better than if you joined the Yusan Alliance. If you are interested in joining me, please raise your hand.”
“I will.”
As expected, Jung Min-jae was the first to raise his hand.
“me too···.”
