Chapter 360 Fear of Power (2)
Kang Man-cheol, president of Yuhan Construction.
With a heartless and cold-blooded personality who would do anything for his own benefit, he did countless dirty things without blinking an eye to grow the company.
Poor construction using defective materials and cheap Chinese materials is basic, and Kang Man-cheol was abusive in non-compliance with safety regulations and tricks to shorten the construction period. As the days went by, he beca more and more out of line, and in the end, he bribed public officials in charge of permits and permits, received all sorts of preferential treatnt, and received contracts for construction projects that left huge profits. They drove it out and pushed away the last remaining nest.
Although he was cursed and hated by countless people as he walked through the mud full of dirty and stinky slls, he eventually beca the president of a mid-sized construction company worth hundreds of billions of won with hundreds of employees. However, the company's recent situation has not been as good as expected.
“We will start an ergency eting about the new city developnt we have been promoting this ti. First of all, I would like to report on the current situation. As most of the holdings have not been sold due to sluggish demand, most of the company's funds have been exhausted, and managent of debt assets has reached a dangerous level. Therefore...”
The real estate market and construction industry were almost devastated by the Underworld project.
Apartnt prices, which skyrocketed every day, froze at so point and then fell frighteningly quickly, and at the sa ti, buyers who wanted to buy completely disappeared, and only sellers trying to sell sohow disappeared.
“We are attracting tenants by promising as many benefits as possible for the unsold stock, but most people are currently interested in the underground residential complex that Ajin Construction will announce, and the real estate market, which has entered a plumting trend, also forces consurs to keep a wait-and-see attitude. ....”
A developnt project with a company fund of 150 billion won. However, as much as 60% of the items were left unattended without finding the owner due to the announcent of supply at the level of an enormous quantity bomb that could accommodate 10 million people in the future and the real estate market price going down without knowing the bottom.
“If we can't handle that volu, the company will face a cash crunch. In addition, if the maturity of the loan, which will arrive in six months, is not processed on ti, the worst case scenario could even lead to bankruptcy.”
Kang Man-cheol is faced with a great difficulty that must be solved by risking life and death. But before he had ti to think about this, a secretary suddenly ca into the conference room and whispered in his ear.
“I... boss. A guest has arrived.”
“custor? who?”
President Kang Man-cheol asks with a questionable face because there is no one he is supposed to et today. To his question, the secretary shrugged his shoulders as if he didn't know.
“I don’t know either. If you just say Chief Kim, you'll know...”
President Kang Man-cheol's face hardened for an instant at those words. However, he nodded his head with an understanding look in his eyes and imdiately got up from his seat.
“I have work, so I will be away for a while. Never mind and you guys can discuss a solution to this problem among yourselves.”
President Kang Man-cheol, who left the conference room and arrived at the reception room guided by his secretary. He looked at a person sitting leisurely in his company and his sharp eyes shone.
“It’s been a while, boss. How have you been?”
Director Kim greets him with a natural smile while looking at himself. To others, he would have looked like an ordinary office worker with a slim figure, but it was not to President Kang Man-cheol.
‘Chief Kim ca to visit personally...? Why the hell...?'
The one who played the most key role in raising the Dongmyeong-pa, which was just a small gang of gangsters, into a huge dark organization that rules Seoul. As an excellent strategist and at the sa ti a scheming negotiator and scher, he collapsed and destroyed nurous rival organizations and established himself as the undisputed second-in-command of the Dongmyeong group. There was no way he would co to him without any reason, so President Kang Man-cheol sat down with a wary attitude. said.
“I want to have a quiet conversation, so please step aside. Don't let anyone co in here.”
“I see.”
The secretary looks at the two with eyes full of curiosity, wanting to know what's going on, then walks away with a puzzled face. It wasn't until long after he closed the door that President Kang Man-cheol opened his mouth coldly, looking at Chief Kim.
“Where the hell are you coming from here like this? Is it because they don’t know how much trouble I would get if the prosecution or the police saw it and slled sothing?”
Officially, Yuhan Construction is supposed to be a clean company that has nothing to do with the Dongmyeong group. Since there had never been a case in which he showed up and visited in person in this way, President Kang Man-cheol was clearly embarrassed but also very angry.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Kang. An unexpected thing happened to us as well, so we thought it would be better to et and talk in person, so we ca here without sha. The president also asked to personally convey his regards.”
“Chunbae... is that guy...?”
President Kang Man-cheol's expression slightly softened when he heard that Chun-bae, the boss of the Dongmyeong faction, sent it directly. And when he heard the story coming out of Chief Kim's mouth, he put on an expression of disbelief.
“What? So, our governor asked you to take care of a classmate in college quietly, you an now?”
“That's right.”
“And you guys agreed to do that favor...?”
“How dare we refuse your request? His na is the president's one and only precious son. It was embarrassing, but the president told to listen to it, since it's not sothing I've done once or twice.”
In the past, Dongmyeong-pa has a history of disappearing without a trace from this world after being ordered by President Kang Man-cheol. So, as if this was nothing special, Chief Kim said with a fishy smile. And at his story, President Kang Man-cheol froze with a stupid expression for a long ti as if he was still in shock.
“So... In conclusion, Tae-soo has no choice but to deal with both the boy he competed with and the girl he had a crush on quietly, so please understand and take good care of Tae-soo.
Director Kim smiled and nodded without saying anything at the words of President Kang Man-cheol, who managed to organize the situation. Seeing him like that, President Kang Man-cheol gnashed his teeth.
‘Kang Tae-soo... you crazy bastard...'
It was sothing to be resentful of doing crazy things like this because he was distracted by that girl behind him, but what made him even more angry was that he kept his distance as much as possible. It was that he gave a new excuse to Dongmyeong-pa, who was slowly cutting off.
‘These bastards will use this as an excuse to try to rip off the company again.....'
There is no favor without a price.
Yuhan Construction and President Kang Man-cheol, who had to pay at least hundreds of millions of dollars in material and financial costs every ti they opened their hands to Dong Myung-pa. Therefore, in a serious situation where the company's existence was at stake under the pressure of financial difficulties, there was no way he could afford to give money to them.
“So... is it possible to get things done? Are you confident that you won't talk behind your back?”
“Once we took the two people, they are locked away in a place no one knows about. We are planning to deal with it after talking with Master Taesu and the boss.”
At the words that they are still alive sowhere, CEO Kang Man-cheol was silent for a mont, then spoke without wavering as if he had made up his mind.
“You can't pick up water that has already been spilled. make sure to sort it out. I will et with Chunbae in person sooner or later to talk.”
President Kang Man-cheol's words that he will borrow the power of the Dongmyeong faction again.
At that, Chief Kim stood up from his seat with a very satisfied smile as if they had achieved what they wanted, and extended his hand to him.
“Please trust , sir. Shall we do this once or twice?”
* * *
After the conversation with Chief Kim, President Kang Man-cheol left work and ran ho.
As soon as he entered the house, he called Tae-soo with a cold face.
“Taesoo, follow to my study.”
“yes....?”
As soon as he gets ho, Tae-soo follows his father, who calls him to the study in a bloody atmosphere, with an uneasy look on his face. And he looked at his father, who picked up a golf club and looked at it, with eyes full of tension, and kept his mouth shut.
“I've heard from people below you several tis that you're living like an idiot, but I didn't know you were such a crazy bastard, Taesu.”
“yes....? What do you an by that.....”
Tae-soo is clearly taken aback by President Kang Man-cheol’s factual violence that cos without warning. But before he had ti to protest, his silver golf club flew in first.
“Let’s get it right for now.”
fast.
The trendous pain felt in the shin that had been hit with a full swing. Tae-soo lost his balance and collapsed due to the sudden pain that he couldn't even groan.
“This bastard is going to go to school quietly, so where is he going to secretly use the bullying scoundrels to incite murder behind my back? Do you have such a huge thing because of the bleeding of your hair on your head? Did you think you would be safe even after doing this, you bastard!”
fast. fast. fast.
“Keep... Kkeaaak. Oh father oh misunderstanding! I did say that, but it was just a joke because I was drunk...”
The story I said in a drunken rage about catching Gao at a bar. Tae-soo protested by saying that he didn't an it, but that only made President Kang Man-cheol more angry.
“what....? misunderstanding? joke? Do you think you can move on to that fucking excuse in this situation? This is a cub! ”
At that word, the golf club hit more fiercely. Tae-soo, who had been beaten dozens of tis, must have thought that he could really die from being hit like this.
“sorry. I'm so sorry father. I was really stupid. Please forgive .”
Tae-soo cries and asks for forgiveness. Seeing his subservience, President Kang Man-cheol barely regained his senses, threw the golf club roughly on the floor, and looked down at his pathetic son after struggling with his temper for a long ti.
“Huh..... Do you know how much damage you brought to and the company right now?”
“Yes... I'm really sorry.”
He doesn't know him well, but his father seems to have been asked for sothing in return by Dongmyeong-pa. Tae-soo, who kept bowing his head and saying he was sorry for his words, soon froze at his father's continued words.
“Sothing went wrong, and the Dongmyeong faction said they would have no choice but to deal with that girl just like the guy you asked to deal with. Knowing that, I shut myself in my house until this work is quietly finished, and do not go anywhere and stay calm. Even that prestigious university took a sester off.”
“yes....? What does that an...?”
“Two students from the sa school went missing at the sa ti, but is there any way to get public attention by getting their faces caught on cara while going in and out of that university? Don't talk nonsense, take a leave of absence right away and go ho...” ”
Oh no, not that! What did Dad just say? Chae-yeon... What do you do with Chae-yeon?”
Tae-soo lost his reason and shouted loudly as if he had beco a different person. President Kang Man-cheol was taken aback by his violent reaction, but soon he tried to get angry again thinking that he was still blinded by love.
“This bastard...”
But...
President Kang Man-cheol couldn't finish his words, looking at his eyes that were completely white and wet with fear.
“Oh no. no. If that happens... no. I can't do that...”
Tae-soo muttered while holding his head as if he had lost his mind while trying to deny this unbelievable reality. And President Kang Man-cheol understood why he did it not long after.
I felt with my own body how terrifying the living public power of this Republic of Korea is.
