213: Meet and see (5)
“The tug of war between G Company and creditors, which insists on demanding large amounts of debt reduction and extending the payment period, seems to be entering a prolonged phase. The government is trying to promote overseas investment…”
“Ew! Like these incompetent things…”
Park, who was listening to the news, became angry and turned off the TV with the remote control. Then, lying on the back of the crippled chair, I asked the team leader.
“How is the construction going?”
“There is no movement yet.”
“Damn it, he’s going to end up with blood in his mouth. Crap! Can’t contact Chairman Kang or Chairman Cha…?”
“yes! There are no traces at all.”
“In the last years of my life, I will be subjected to such humiliation. Guess I’ve lived too long haha!”
Park’s inspiration blew out a lament mixed with self-help. But he was just saying that, and his desk drawer was full of healthy food.
“As you said, we wanted some Chinese killers. As soon as you pay the advance payment…”
“Stop it for now…. Let’s proceed slowly while watching the situation…”
After hearing Park’s answer, team leader Seo gently bit his molars. Again, Park did as Cheol-woo said.
In other words, Mr. Park still saw him as a pawn on the chess board. A hand that can be discarded at any time if necessary.
“Old man. A deputy secretary of the Ministry of Strategy and Finance has arrived.”
A sound was heard from outside the door announcing the visitor. When he heard the word ‘deputy secretary-general’, Park’s crumpled expression softened a little.
“Come on! Chief Seo will guide you directly.”
“Yes, old man!”
Team leader Seo hid his expression and went out the door. And after a while, a man of thin stature was brought in.
“Gosh! I can only see my mother-in-law now, draw it.”
“I am still the assistant secretary. Due to a lot of work, I didn’t see him often. Old man!”
“I’m a yangban who is going to be appointed as a vice minister soon, so what’s wrong with calling in advance? Isn’t it? Whoa!”
“I just want to thank you for looking at me that way.”
In a rare moment, Park stood up and greeted a person named Deputy Minister Mo. A man with a sharp impression on his thin body greeted him with a cold smile.
“I heard you have a lot of worries these days.”
“As you go through life, you will have various problems. Even if it goes well, it’s not very fun. Whoa!”
The two of them, who had finished greeting each other, sat on a cushion and talked about various things in front of the tea table. Then, in the end, the assistant secretary of state Mo brought up the business first.
“The deputy minister is concerned. He said that if there was no one like Mr. Park in this country, where would the government run smoothly? haha!”
“Hey, you care about all these old people. I’m just thrilled. Whoa!”
“So, if you have any difficulties, please tell me. I’ll try to figure it out on my own.”
“Oh dear! Our deputy minister is going to be the deputy prime minister soon, and he takes care of all these old Koreans and Americans. Then speak without my specifications.”
In response to Deputy Secretary Mo’s words, Mun Park spoke about the Pharaoh Resort Gun. He argued that only with the money tied up there would he be able to add power to his party in the upcoming elections.
“Hmm! The problem is that foreign companies are involved. If it were a domestic company, it would have been resolved already…”
“Yeah, those G-Company guys really hurts my head. Do you know anything about it?”
“I am in the financial management side, so there is no direct connection. It’s been about two years since I moved to the second vice minister’s office.”
“Still, weren’t you the ace in the office of the first vice minister in charge of the international economy? There are still many connections there.”
Inspired by Park’s face, Park pushed his face to the deputy assistant secretary, who was showing displeasure. The quick-witted he couldn’t miss his opponent’s expression.
“You can’t fool the old man’s eyes. haha! There doesn’t seem to be any way…”
“What is that? If my case is resolved well, I will reward you without any regrets. I will guarantee your position as deputy minister.”
“Hey, I can only thank you for your words. haha!”
So they put conditions on each other. As if the plan was successful, Deputy Secretary Mo spoke up.
“The problem is G Company. It is foreign capital, and the political forces behind it are not formidable.”
“So that’s why I’m in this mess. If it was domestic capital, where would you dare…”
Park’s mind suddenly reminded me of Cheolwoo. However, he did not open his mouth as he thought it was a later problem.
“It’s more about using it the other way around. First of all, we are going to block the execution of funds through the Foreign Exchange Transactions Act.”
“They aren’t amateurs either, can they easily fall into such a baggy trap?”
“Anyway, the Foreign Exchange Transactions Act is an earring if you put it on your ear, and a nose ring if you put it on your nose. Of course, we can’t keep them tied for long, but we can break that momentum.”
“Isn’t that all there is to…?”
“of course. In the meantime, creditors will file for bankruptcy.”
“What, what? Filed for bankruptcy…?”
“Yeah, it’s kind of a brinkmanship tactic. There’s no way to get out of this situation without taking damage anyway, right?”
“…if we file for bankruptcy, the resort will definitely be worth shit…”
“So, G-Company will also get away with it quickly. From the point of view of foreign investors, long-term investments at low prices would be like bad debts. Besides, if you get caught up in the Foreign Exchange Transactions Act…”
“If they take their hands off like that, the debt repayment scale will shrink further…”
“The amount of damage to domestic creditors will be reduced according to their priorities. The rest will be poisoned, but…”
“It’s really tempting. Two days!”
“If you tell me, I will take care of foreign exchange management. Not only the Ministry of Finance, but also the prosecution have Ivy League alumni.”
There was no power in the country to repay the debt before him. Even if there was, I wouldn’t be able to do it because I’m afraid of the repercussions…
It’s going to take a lot of damage, but it’s much better than the current situation. Because G Company was hoping for a long-term interest-free price at half the price.
‘You bastards of a thief! Let me show you what power is.’
Park Shin-hye sharpened his teeth and gave strength to his eyes. Now it was his turn to counterattack.
The waves crashed on the sandy beach of the West Sea. Cheolwoo and Linda were enjoying a meal while looking at the quiet sandy beach.
“It’s so cool here. Bay!”
“Muido Island is famous as the filming location for Korean Wave dramas. The scenery is so good.”
Linda wanted to see the nature of Korea. Without a second thought, she took her and passed over to her ignorance.
On the other side of the mountain where tteokbokki are sweating and climbing, there is a beach where famous Korean dramas were filmed. There aren’t many people who come now, but the scenery is considered one of the best in the West Coast.
As it is a famous tourist destination, there were places to eat and rest. Poldo, who served as Linda’s bodyguard, was also satisfied with the secluded environment of the island.
“I’ll go to the bathroom for a while.”
Satisfied with her date with Cheol-woo, she left for a while. A female bodyguard, who had been waiting at a distance, followed her.
“I have something to tell you. Bay!”
“Okay, sit here and talk. pole!”
As she was gone, Paul came over to him. Unlike in New York, Paul, who now has quite the dignity as a bodyguard officer, sat quietly.
“I would like to increase the number of security personnel a little more.”
“Isn’t that enough now?”
“As Bay has seen, Miss Linda’s media exposure is increasing. Besides, it is expected that fame will accelerate because of this photo shoot in Korea.”
“Because of the photo shoot…?”
“Yeah, it might be because of the popularity in Korea, but it is said that the popularity of the US exploded due to the influence of the Korean Wave.”
“like! It could be like that.”
“It’s like there are almost no paparazzi in Korea, but if you go back to the US, you may be treated like a Hollywood star from that point on. You become a person with no privacy.”
American paparazzi culture represented by Hollywood was close to indiscriminate terrorism against celebrities. In the name of freedom of the press, 24/7 hidden cameras were pointed.
Some of the hottest stars even shot at the paparazzi. Their pursuit was tenacious enough to feel murderous for a moment.
“Hmm! That’s never going to happen. Whatever money it costs, let me protect her safety and privacy. But is there anyone who can do that?”
“You should find it if you look for it, but it will be difficult to collect easily. So I’m trying to hurry up. It will take at least two years to reach the desired number of people.”
As a security team, it was by no means easy to form the most elite, rather than matching the assortment. The bodyguard had to be clean, not only in his skills, but also in his privacy.
It was difficult to find someone who had the experience and was not affected by personal circumstances.
During the guard period, it was also a difficult job to the point where it was virtually impossible to have a personal life. So the mercenaries preferred short-term contracts.
When the contract period, which was at most three months, ended, he ran away from work without looking back. Even though it was common to enjoy long vacations at resorts, Cheol-woo would return to the battlefield right away.
“Anyway, I lost some weight.”
“Because of my work, I don’t have time to eat pizza. Huh!”
“Will your wife like it? Because the groom makes a lot of money and doesn’t come home often.”
“You seem to like money more than me. Sometimes it feels like a money making machine, but what…”
In response to Chul-woo’s answer, Paul made a comfortable expression and chatted. When I met a client who knew well about security, the story went well.
“What is Fred doing these days?”
“Isn’t he even posting reports?”
“No, I can’t see. My writing skills are so bad it’s hard to understand. Huh!”
“It is. Huh! He is also working hard to establish a mercenary company. I have a lot of money, so I’m going to collect a bunch of retired guys and make a fuss about making the best mercenary company in the East. He has such a wide network that even one scout is amazing, so it’s not a bad dream at all…”
“Aren’t you planning on looking for a bodyguard there?”
“There is nothing to criticize about his skills, but his characters are all garbage… There are no talents to entrust the bodyguard. This job requires skill, but above all, it is a job that requires responsibility and trust…”
Paul replied, shaking his head. With this attitude, Cheol-woo also trusted him.
“I will recommend one.”
“You’re the boss, what’s your main specialty?”
“sniping! I will be in the top 5 in the world for my skills.”
“…well, you’re not talking about the killer who targeted Miss Linda this time, are you?”
“right. That guy!”
“How do you make me believe in such a person?”
“Sometimes people change when they are really in a hurry. It could be life, or it could be money.”
“…why did he change?”
“It’s because of the money. You’ll lose all the money you’ve saved your whole life. Huh!”
“I’m not saying I forgot, but you’re going to forget it? I understand what that means…”
“I’m not calling you to scout right now. I’ll give you his contact information, so if you call me later, pretend you can’t win and take it lightly. If it’s not you, you can cut it off.”
“Well then, I see.”
In the midst of exchanging opinions, Linda returned to her seat. She wore a hat over her sweatshirt to look normal, but that alone couldn’t hide her beauty.
In particular, I couldn’t take my eyes off her face with Korean-style transparent makeup. The combination of translucent skin and long blonde hair like an elf that popped out of the movie shot his taste.
The warrior’s voice was heard in Cheol-woo’s ears, who was drooling after being mesmerized by her beauty.
[Chief Seo has contacted me. Park has contacted government officials.]
‘Government personnel, who is that?’
[This is the Assistant Secretary of State for the Second Vice Minister’s Office of the Ministry of Strategy and Finance. He is from Harvard and is a member of the Ivy League alumni association, which is led by the Prime Minister and Vice Ministers of the Ministry of Finance.]
Hearing the Warrior’s brief briefing, Cheol-woo smiled on his lips. Finally, Park’s web began to oscillate.
