269: Going on a business trip again (3)
“I think my dad will give me the commander-in-chief soon.”
“Okay! Is this the place you want?”
Chul-woo answered Hwaryeong’s call in the airport lobby without sincerity. It had already been foreseen, and only the question of timing remained.
However, Cha Jun-gi’s crimes against humanity continued to be revealed. Then, Chairman Cha and the Daeyoung Group, as well as the judiciary and the politicians, were in a difficult situation.
As if igniting public opinion, the media drew the public’s attention to the issue of the inheritance of the chaebol. The problem placed a burden not only on Kang Ho and Dae-young groups, but also on the judiciary side and the politicians who tolerated their actions.
Because of this, the presidents, who were caught in a weakness, tried to solve the succession problem in a hurry. I didn’t know that if I missed the time, I would have to spend the last years of my life in a cell.
“Ah! Are you going to react like that?”
“You don’t like your voice too much, do you?”
“···Sheesh! It’s insanely fast.”
Her complaints came through the phone. All she wanted was a refreshing revenge on her brother and her father.
However, after seeing his brother’s death, he became obsessed with the emptiness of revenge. If her Cheol-woo did not care for her in time, he would probably have wandered for a long time.
“I keep getting scared to sit in the chairperson’s seat because I have lost the motivation for revenge. Perhaps he would have run away without him.”
“Do it if you want! Because it’s me, I don’t care what a woman named Cha Hwa-ryeong does.”
“···tooth! What kind of consolation are you giving? Not cool…”
“Five! were you comforted? It wasn’t intentional… Huh!”
“If I become a white man, will you feed me?”
“Cha Hwa-ryeong is Baek Soo-ra…. Can a workaholic really do that? If not, I think I’ll jump into a construction site.”
“Sheesh! you know me so well Ho Ho!”
She also realized that she was crazy about the pleasure of working. But on the other hand, she felt afraid of a new place and environment she was not familiar with.
“If you don’t want to do it, don’t do it! And if you want even a little, take it for now… If you sit down and have regrets, then it’s okay to quit. I will take care of the rest for you.”
“huh! People who put off their work to others are very good at talking.”
“What kind of misunderstanding… I am the person who has been out of the airport early in the morning to go on a business trip abroad, so I…”
She grunted with every word she said, but her voice grew brighter. As long as he quietly supported her behind her, a woman named Cha Hwaryeong had the capacity to do anything.
‘Rather, Min-seok’s side is the problem. tup!’
Chairman Kang was in the same situation as Chairman Cha. Like Cha Jun-gi, Min-tae and Ming-kyu did not commit crimes against humanity.
However, minor corruptions were constantly revealed here and there. Inheritance, tax evasion, and breach of trust were also discussed, so there was a limit to covering it up with force.
Without the shield of Min-tae’s death, Chairman Kang wouldn’t have been able to act like a patient in the hospital.
In the end, he hurriedly started preparing to hand over the seat to Min-seok. The inheritance problem was not a big problem because I had been preparing for it for a long time.
The only problem was that Minseok wasn’t ready. He was deeply experiencing his limitations as he truly plunged into the management of the company.
As such experiences piled up, it eroded his confidence. Then he secretly tried to give up the chairmanship to Cheol-woo.
‘Are you crazy? Why am I sitting in such a troublesome place? I’d rather have the president of the pants sit.’
Being a chaebol in Korea was a very troublesome place. As the saying goes, I grew up a lot in order to live, so troublesome problems popped up here and there every day.
As a salary boss, it’s enough to cover up and cover up the problems, but the position of chief was a position where he had to take responsibility and perform surgery. And as the size of the company grew, the stake battle became more complicated.
Even if it was a workaholic like Hwaryeong, a free spirit like him was a place he absolutely wanted to decline. Rather, it was more convenient to wash his whining minseok a few more times and make him a pants chairman.
“Let’s go on a business trip and see you. President Kang Min-seok keeps whining, what do you do by grabbing your hair and dragging him away!”
“Oh! Is he doing that too?”
“There is no concrete move yet, but I think it will happen soon.”
“···okay! I have something in mind, so I’ll tell you when a specific plan comes out. Be careful on business trips!”
“Yeah, let’s go and see. Don’t touch Dain’s temper for nothing.”
“Ah! Why are you talking about that girl again? Do you know what kind of temper I am?”
“Eww! Cut it off!”
There really wasn’t a lot of space between them. Both of them showed their teeth even when talking about each other.
That’s how big it is. It was a miracle that two wild beasts, who had lived without harshness, lived in the same mountain for five years.
“I have to create that miracle. tup!”
I was told to enjoy the inevitable problem, but I couldn’t really enjoy it. If only I could go back to the past once again…
“Still, I can’t give up on them. It’s already stored in my memory.”
The more painful life became, the clearer and brighter the happy memories. The memory was so engrained in his unconscious that he relentlessly ripped off the label of oblivion to the point where he was afraid to close his eyes.
Knowing such pain, I couldn’t ignore them. And that’s why she was able to love them unconditionally at every moment.
“What are you muttering like that? Like in the rain…”
“Oh! Go a little early. But what kind of bag…”
At that moment, Director Yang entered the airport lobby. And he found the large Cheolwoo at once.
Although he was not late for the flight, he arrived at the airport later than Cheolwoo. In his hand, he held a large suitcase like an immigrant.
“I prepared something like this just in case.”
“What kind of person are you visiting for the first time abroad? Just look at it.”
“Is that a sin? It’s all there.”
“I don’t think it was because I couldn’t afford a house, and language training is common these days. Especially in large corporations like Kangho…”
“I can read and write English, but I’m not very good at it. Yoh…”
Isa Yang fluttered while making the beak by hand. It really looked like a duck.
“That’s why you didn’t go to language school at all, is that this?”
“What are you spending your money for? I can bear the pain, but I can’t stand the hunger. If it doesn’t make sense, it’s good to starve to death.”
“The place I’m going to now can only speak English and Cantonese…”
“So that’s why I cling to you submissively. How dare one manager be cocky towards the heavenly director… ok!”
Director Yang rolled his eyes and scratched his face. Now that it is an airport, the attitude was that there was no need to notice any more.
“I haven’t boarded the plane yet…”
“Did you say that it was a threat? What are you going to do after coming all the way here?”
“Sheesh! Take that hat off. Are we going on a business trip or a trip?”
Yang was wearing a fedora in a suit. A lightweight fedora hat concealed his wide forehead.
“A light outfit raises the dignity of your business. Whoa!”
“Quality is a bitch. Do you have life insurance?”
“That’s what I heard at the beginning of my career. Even though you were an alumni and you came to listen reluctantly… But why are you talking about that?”
“It might not happen. Hong Kong grandma could eat you right away.”
“The plague…. am i a kid? Don’t gossip, just finish boarding. The suitcase is big and my shoulders are going to fall off.”
As soon as they met, they growled at each other. I had a bad feeling that maybe this could be the case throughout the business trip.
Druck! Druck!
The sound of the wheels of the carrier was annoying. Scratched wheels on the bumpy and cracked asphalt constantly screamed.
“Wow! I always bring stuff I can’t handle.”
“Yanmar! Don’t complain, you just have to pull a little! Do I really have to use my strength like this?”
“So, what are you packing like that? Where are you going to immigrate?”
“It was because I didn’t know it was a business trip for a few days. why?”
Sweat was forming on the forehead of the sheep pulling the luggage. It was bitterly cold early in Korea, but here it was like a spring day.
I was wrapped up tightly until I got on the plane, but here I was sweating even when I took off my coat. Director Yang did not realize that the weather in a place about four hours away by plane would be so different.
“Are you still far away? There must be a Kangho group branch in Hong Kong, but what the hell are these kids doing? A heavenly director has come…”
“This time, I didn’t contact them.”
“why not? If you want to find out about Cruise and meet the King of the West…”
“You still haven’t given up on your feelings for the King West?”
“Why throw it away! We are on the verge of creating results that are not there…”
Director Yang persistently bit and fell. He also had his own ambitions.
“Forget all that! We have a more important mission than that.”
“Mission, what is it?”
“There is such a thing. I’ll tell you later, so please do something about that wheel.”
“Be sensitive to what kind of log this is. Just looking at it, I’m not the only one who’s noisy…”
As he said, the road was full of suitcases. Just like Hong Kong, where people live on service and tourism, the area was overflowing with tourists.
The place they were walking was near the Hong Kong Convention Center. Cheol-woo made a reservation for a hotel that costs more than 150,000 won per night with Yang’s moving card.
The view outside the hotel window was cool for the money spent. The port around Kowloon Bay and the view of Tsim Sha Tsui across from it is really…
“hey! How is this different from the view from my apartment?”
“… Director, do you live in an apartment by the Han River?”
“okay! Why can’t I live like that?”
This yangban also had a lot of unexpected corners. Living in an expensive apartment and not having a car…
“Are you really full after eating these little dumplings? I’ve always wondered about that, but now that question has been answered.”
“What is the answer?”
“If you eat too much, you will have no choice but to be full. You little pig!”
Director Yang looked at the dishes piled up in front of Cheol-woo and cursed. So many colander-like bowls were piled up next to his table.
“I was hungry and wanted to eat at a delicious and famous place, but I brought it here because I whined. Well, well!”
“Cut your voice down! Everyone else is looking at us. Shameful…”
Director Yang covered his side face with his hands and spoke with one tooth. As such, Cheolwoo’s mukbang has attracted many people’s attention.
As soon as Director Yang unpacked his luggage at the hotel, he asked where the ‘mid-level escalator’ was. He said that it is a place I want to visit when I come to Hong Kong.
Even though Cheolwoo was a first-timer, he had a warrior. It didn’t take long to get to the ‘Central’ with the ‘mid-level escalator’.
Director Yang looked up at the sky as he walked through the streets of Hong Kong. The narrow sky full of narrow and tall buildings was overcast with fine dust.
“Is there fine dust here too?”
“Absolutely. This is China. Right above is Shenzhen City. Truly mine!”
“But why aren’t planes flying? When you watch a movie, you fly low as if you’re going to hit a building?”
“When did that airport disappear? How long has it been since you watched the alternate movie?”
“···shit! So, it’s not worth coming here, is it?”
“What do I know, did you come here to play?”
He led Yang, who became so gloomy, to Soho. After riding the ‘mid-level escalator’ that I cried like that, my droopy shoulders were slightly stretched out.
As soon as the anticipation of leaving the house returned, he said he was hungry and asked to eat dim sum. Dim Sum is a must in Hong Kong. So I went to a famous restaurant, and he made an uncomfortable face again.
“What else are you complaining about?”
“I’m paying for it! Take some of what you’re crazy about too. Where can people eat this?”
“I told you to eat as much as you want, didn’t you say that you would buy me anything you want to eat?”
“When did I···?”
“in Seoul···. When you flirt with me…!”
“Sometimes since the plane has landed, you say something like that!”
“Wow! Show your humanity…”
Cheol-woo measured the thickness of Yang’s face and clicked his tongue. And at that moment, his cell phone rang.
[This is Wang Wei’s phone.]
The bite you’ve been waiting for has arrived. It came a little bit more than I expected, but…
