95 episodes. What to do, really.

“Jimin, here!”

A voice came from the table where two women were sitting.

Han Ji-min approached him with a helpless expression and sat down.

“How are you?”

“What does your boyfriend say?”

The two friends hurried her with a fuss.

“It’s too early to talk about marriage and you don’t want to break up with me.”

“Are you right? I’m not serious about that person.”

“You’re asking me to go to Australia to make you happy, aren’t you really serious?”

“I’ll make you happy, so why aren’t you asking me to marry you? Don’t you think the order is out of order? At least if you’re going to take me to the other side of the world, I’ll have to propose.”

At the friend’s words, Han Ji-min sighed and drank the drink in front of her.

“It’s because he’s a little clumsy. And I’m not old enough to get married yet.”

“Your boyfriend says he’s twenty-eight? Even if it’s not you, he’s not old enough to get married? And if you go to Australia and break up because you’re wrong? If you spend a lot of money and come back and graduate, you’re late. Don’t you know how old you are when you get a job these days?”

“……”

Han Ji-min could not respond with a face full of water.

Then another friend asked.

“Who’s that woman named Jacqueline?”

“Did you say you met someone for work?”

“Wow, you’re exchanging text messages like that while you’re meeting at work? Does that make sense even in a foreign country?”

“……”

“You have to come to your senses. He says he’s rich. Then maybe there’s one or two girls around?”

“I’m not that kind of person…”

“If it’s not him, should I just leave him around? Has anything similar happened in Australia?”

Han Ji-min immediately remembered Ji-hyun.

Even knowing that she was dating her, she flirted with her boyfriend several more times, and because of that, the best of friends had completely broken up.

“Did you see the expression on your face?”

“……”

“Think carefully. If you don’t even get a marriage confirmation from that man, you could be beaten up later.”

“Okay. Next time we meet, I’ll be sure to ask.”

At her words, her friend said as if frustrated.

“You can’t say that out loud. Why are you so frustrated? Do you really like him?”

“……”

“If you want to get married, a man should come out from the inside and say it sincerely.

“…Okay. I’ll take care of it.”

“Keep in mind. You shouldn’t say it out loud.”

“Because I know…”

Han Ji-min bit her lip and fiddled with her phone.

‘What should I do, really…’

moon crack.

As the on-the-rock glass shook, the ice made a clear sound.

Koh Sang-moon didn’t drink and just moved around.

“Sir, are you okay?”

Kang Jun-ho, who was next to him, asked as if he could guess his heart.

“Huh? What?”

“……”

“It happens all the time. Since what I was ranting about went wrong, there’s no way I can sit still from the father’s point of view. It’s roughly what I expected.”

“Is the president very angry?”

“Yeah, what.”

“……”

The slush funds transferred to Switzerland disappeared, and all plans were in vain.

As a result, the merger and acquisition of Inix, which had been the best, was put in vain, and even the connections that could be reached with President Chang Hak-joon, who were the next best, were lost.

I thought I could get one if not both, but losing both was the worst.

“Still, my father. He may be calling for joy in his heart, that I have failed.”

“I hope you do that.”

“…well. Or good luck.”

Kang Jun-ho said comfortingly at Ko Sang-moon’s sullen attitude.

“It’s not completely unsuccessful yet. Isn’t there a suggestion from over there?”

“It’s a 40-trillion-trillion project…”

“Sir, you have to agree. No matter how much President Jang is, he will not be able to openly work on a project that is so large that 20% of the government budget is invested. Everyone will be watching regardless.”

“I don’t know. And it’s a whole project, but that’s not the kind of proposal that came our way.”

“Still, Southeast Asia and Australia will be about 10 trillion won.”

“It’s not a small amount of money, but…”

After taking a sip of the liquor, Koh Sang-moon continued.

“Chief Kang, then Jin Yu-seong.”

“yes?”

“No, you know why. When I told you it was a 40-trillion-dollar project.”

“Oh, yes.”

“Did you see that too? That friend’s face.”

“Yeah, I saw it. He was blunt.”

“Is it? When I first heard it, I was quite surprised by the amount.”

“It’s a lot of money, so it might not make sense.”

“He’s a friend who won 200 billion won without blinking an eye, so there’s no way you can’t feel it. To me, he didn’t say anything about it, but he certainly thought that I would be taken advantage of by Jang Hak-jun.”

“If you participate in a government project, you have to bear with being taken advantage of a little, sir.”

“You know. It’s just the look in that friend’s eyes.”

“Forget it. You’re not someone who will be with us anyway. It’s too much for you to take care of yourself right now.”

Kang Jun-ho filled Koh Sang-moon’s glass with ice and poured the liquor.

“Didn’t you say that if you add up all the individual and institutional investors related to Hak-Jun Chang, it’s about 13%?”

“Yes, securing it will be a great help in convincing the seniors who are watching you.”

“My father is in good health, will he really give me that much strength?”

“Because they don’t think that the managing director will get well. And there are some achievements that the managing director has shown so far.”

“What’s the result? If you can’t do that, you shouldn’t sit here.”

Crackle, tuck.

Koh Sang-moon put down his glass and gave instructions to Kang Jun-ho.

“Call the GL boss, the boss. Get ready.”

“Shouldn’t we contact the chemistry side as well?”

“The boss will take care of that. The subject has to be the boss as requested.”

“All right.”

After Kang Jun-ho went out after bowing, Koh Sang-moon called somewhere.

“Chief Choi, this is Sang-Moon Koh.”

***

Three people were sitting on a sofa in a room with two phoenixes in the background.

Among them, President Jang Hak-jun, who sat at the top, spoke first.

“Chief Choi, did you get an answer?”

“Yes. I got a confirmation today.”

“What did you say?”

“The GL group said they would work together. We plan to bring GL Corporation to the fore.”

“I couldn’t even run a simple errand, so if I’m shy, I can’t say no.

Choi Soo-hyeok, chief of staff, answered while tying his tie.

“I’m sorry. We’re re-negotiating, so we’ll convince him as soon as possible.”

“Chun Kyung-deok has the guts, but yes. To refuse our chief Choi’s request. You wouldn’t just say no, what’s the reason?”

“The group itself is said to be in the process of developing overseas mines.”

“Hmm, don’t bring other things in because Ji-jil has done something? It’s a good cause. Where is it?”

“It is an iron ore mine in the Pilbara region of Australia.”

“How much is the investment?”

“It is said to be about 3 trillion.”

“You’ve got a lot of money, Chun Kyung-deok. Does Bosco get development rights and run it directly?”

“No. It’s a way to invest in PF and get a stake in the company.”

“Is the mine that big?”

“It is said that the world’s largest reserves in open pit mines.”

“As long as Chief Choi has recognized that far, it’s just that it’s not a Gura.”

Hak-Jun Jang scratched the tip of his eyebrow, showing an uncomfortable look.

“But it is doubtful at the time.”

“You mean? What do you mean?”

“It all happened after we had contact. After investigating, it was confirmed that the first meeting with an Australian mining company was also held later.”

“Hahaha, these are the heads.”

“I’m going to move the trachea and turn it over.”

“Is there a way?”

“There is an economic report that the price of iron ore will fall internationally. It is too risky to develop an iron ore mine when supply exceeds demand. We believe that it is possible if the shareholders move.”

“Hmm, did you try to negotiate again with that?”

“That’s right.”

Hakjun Jang tapped the armrest and opened his mouth.

“That project. What does Chief Choi think? Doesn’t it look like there’s no business feasibility?”

“If the global economy turns into a boom, we’re going to make a lot of money. But if the recession continues, even Bosco will have a hard time taking the risk.”

“It’s almost half-gambling, that’s it.”

“Yes, the mine itself is attractive, but the market situation is very bad. You can steal it, but it’s probably better not to touch it because it might hurt you.”

“Hahaha, as expected, Chief Choi.

Hak-Jun Jang continued to speak after he had lost his appetite.

“Then get down. If I can’t eat them, they shouldn’t eat either.”

“Okay. I will report back after processing.”

After Choi Soo-hyuk’s report was over, Jang Hak-jun turned his head to the middle-aged man sitting on the other side.

He is the current Vice Minister of Knowledge Economy, Son Young-seok, who was previously in charge of energy resources at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and was called African Tong.

“Vice Minister Sohn, how’s that one? Can I really not attach the windmill?”

“No problem. Who would be interested in places like Africa or South America? Even if they did, they wouldn’t leave a single proper document. It was a verbal contract, if they were all blown up by rebels or criminal gangs.”

“After all, African barrels are not for nothing. What? Oral contracts? All blown up? Hahahaha.”

“Ugh, that’s true. President. That kind of thing is quite common there. Would you call it a blood diamond?”

Blood Diamonds.

In other words, they are also called Conflict Diamonds, diamonds mined from conflict zones.

Profits from diamonds mined in this area will be funded for war and will lead to huge bloodshed.

How to make war with money.

If there was no money to buy bullets, there would be no conflict, but the diamonds did not run out of money, so civil wars were constantly taking place.

“What the hell did you lack in such a dangerous place? Wasn’t he even shot in the head?”

“Hey, how did you know? Look here.”

Son Young-seok raised the left side of his head and showed a horizontal scar.

“This is a wound I got when I got into Sierra Leone and got hit by a rebel gunshot. At that time, I thought I was really going to die.”

“It’s ugly, man. Put your head down.”

“Haha, it’s a decoration for me.”

“Hey, the medal.”

“This isn’t a joke, it’s true. Because of this, I had a connection with the Sierra Leone rebel general and received a medal.”

“Yeah? Did you really get a medal? Haha, this guy is really good at this.”

“I’ll take you to my house sometime, so see for yourself. I’m studded with diamonds, but I’m terrified.”

“Why do I leave this nice Blue House and go to someone else’s house? All right, man.”

Hakjun Jang smiled and picked up the coffee cup in front of him.

“What, this? It’s already cooled down? Anyway, I don’t know how time flies when I talk to you guys.”

At that, Choi Soo-hyuk stood up and said.

“I’ll have another drink when I go out.”

“Oh, I’d like a drink too. Chief Choi. Coffee doesn’t taste good when it’s cold.”

Seeing him smiling slyly, Choi Soo-hyuk replied that he would.

As he came out of the office, he muttered softly.

“Anyway, when the opportunity arises in the subject, I try to distinguish up and down.

At those words, the secretarial staff next to him opened his mouth as if he had spoken to him.

“yes?”

“Oh, I didn’t mean to you.”

“……yes.”

“Oh, go ahead and bring me two cups of hot coffee.”

“All right.”

Choi Soo-hyuk walked down the hallway and called somewhere.

“This is Choi Soo-hyuk.”

– Yes, Chief Choi. This is Hoseok Lee.

“Chairman, I need to see you for a moment.”

-All right. When are you okay?

Choi Soo-hyuk answered with sharp eyes.

“I’ll see you there at eight o’clock tonight.”
