chapter 17
Chairman Choi Kun-wook, who got into the car, looked out the window. The sun has already gone down and the night sky is starting to turn dark.
“Kim Knight.”
“yes. President.”
Engineer Kim couldn’t help but be very nervous about Chairman Choi Kun-wook’s call.
When I get in the car after work, I usually go home. It was because something different than usual came out of Chairman Choi Kun-wook’s mouth.
However, Chairman Choi Kun-wook’s words were enough to make Knight Kim fall into confusion.
“I stopped by a chicken restaurant before going home today.”
“yes?”
Maybe you heard it wrong At that thought, Knight Kim unknowingly asked a dumbfounded question.
But today, despite asking himself, he didn’t scream. Only Chairman Choi Kun-wook’s soft words continued as he looked out the window.
“A house that sells fried chicken, which is popular these days. Stop by a chicken restaurant, pack two chickens, and go.”
“yes. All right.”
suddenly it’s chicken It was an embarrassing request, but driver Kim calmly started the engine and started driving.
What brand should I bring to the president?
Where was the brand that your son told you to try the other day because it was delicious?
with this thought.
*
The day after meeting Yuna’s father, Chairman Choi Gun-wook.
Once again, the familiar number popped up on the phone.
– The president said to see you today.
“All right.”
– The time will be notified by text message, and we will send a person on time.
“yes.”
Yesterday, it seems that he responded calmly.
Actually, I was really surprised too.
I knew from what Yuna said that it was not an ordinary family.
Because this is more than what I imagined.
I could understand why even the big agencies gave up on Yuna while sticking out their tongues.
But the results are still unknown.
Will they fail like those who got the chance before? Or whether consent will be given.
You’ll know if the things you said you did your best to prepare worked well when you meet them in person.
“brother. Where?”
“An important place. It might take some time, so if you find me, tell me that you will contact me separately tomorrow.”
In response to Park Il-do’s question, he informed that he could no longer schedule today.
I was careful with what I said to Park Il-do, not knowing if Yuna found out, there would be an uproar.
Sometimes I open the office door and come in.
“Chief!”
like now.
“It’s a surprise. Yuna, today’s school class is over.”
“of course! When are we leaving for lessons? Teacher Jiyoung said you can come quickly today.”
Now that I understand, can I take a deep breath and say it?
“I have work today. Director Park will take you there just for today. Understand?”
“…”
Yuna tilted her head at my words, but she nodded.
No matter how busy I was, I always took care of things related to Arin and Yuna.
I couldn’t understand it for a moment because there was a sudden work.
After asking Park Il-do for Yuna, he left the office first.
If I stay longer, maybe Yuna will notice.
*
“come in.”
Let the secretary know you’ve arrived inside.
Beyond the door, I hear the words of Chairman Choi Kun-wook.
Whoa.
After taking a few deep breaths.
I took a step and went inside.
“Sit down.”
I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous. The ability I have is to see talent, but it wasn’t that I could be calm in any situation.
And thanks to that ability, I was able to see.
Chairman Choi Kun-wook’s talent for management.
You have to have this level of talent to make it from a single construction company to a group. I said.
It’s not important.
I couldn’t help but ask about the videos I handed over to Chairman Choi Kun-wook yesterday.
“Did you enjoy the video I gave you?”
“Good to see you. Thanks to you, it was nice to be able to see a side of me that I didn’t know about our youngest. That gives me my thanks.”
“no. I just…”
“However, the words of thanks and the story to share in the future are two different things. If you’re thinking wildly about that gift, get up and leave now.”
The distinction is clear. I am grateful for what I prepared, but it does not affect the story related to Yuna.
Chairman Choi Kun-wook’s words are not over yet.
Still, the video doesn’t seem to be ineffective.
Chairman Choi Gun-wook, who had just erased the cold expression on his face, threw me a proposal with a calm expression.
“okay. My youngest wants to sign a contract with your company and become a singer.”
“yes. I don’t know if the president already knows, but Choi Yuna is currently taking vocal lessons after school.”
“Right.”
A very attractive offer that is hard to refuse.
“As I recognized it, the office was also very small. I’m thinking of investing in my youngest, what do you think?”
The moment I heard Chairman Choi Kun-wook’s words, I felt it.
this is bait
Called.
It was clear that it was a bait thrown by the thought that if an investment proposal was made in a place where there was no proper income right away, there would be no way not to accept it.
If you bite this bait, you will die.
It does not mean that you will lose your life, but that you will not pass the test given by Chairman Choi Kun-wook.
And this is one of the scenarios I envisioned. After taking a breath for a while, he brought out the answer he had prepared.
“it’s okay. President.”
“what? Think again. You may not know it, but opportunities like this don’t come easily.”
“I want to grow it with my own hands. Funds are tight right now, but that’s okay.”
Chairman Choi Kun-wook sends his eyes that he is colorful.
Nothing is free in this world. Every investment has a reason, and it is natural to want a reward beyond the investment.
If it is not someone else, but if it is Chairman Choi Gun-wook, who has overcome countless people to that position.
“It’s okay.”
The moment you try to roll your head to understand the meaning of the words.
“To be honest, if I had just accepted the offer, I would have kicked it out. I was thinking of bringing them right away and setting up an agency.”
also.
What I found as much as I could after meeting yesterday was Chairman Choi Kun-wook’s tendency.
And there was this situation among the many predictions prepared.
What should you do if you receive an attractive investment offer? The conclusion reached was the current answer.
“Tell me honestly. I went home yesterday and watched the video you gave me with my wife. Thanks to that, I was able to think of the past and have a good time.”
“no. What I did was just capture the efforts that Miss Choi You-na has made so far.”
Chairman Choi Kun-wook burst into laughter at my words.
After a while, Chairman Choi Kun-wook’s cold words followed.
“Do you know how many guys ran in front of me without even trying? That story ends here. let it do this.”
What decision did Chairman Choi Kun-wook make?
My gaze was only on his mouth.
“When I just opened a small office called KW Construction, I saw only one road. Do you know what it is?”
“I do not know.”
“It is success. I didn’t even think of anything else. Looking only at success, we overcame all kinds of adversity to create the current KW Group.”
It’s not about talking about your own success story.
“The look in my eyes from then can be seen in our maknae now. Yuna’s personality is exactly like mine, so no matter what difficulties there are, she will try to achieve her goal.”
done.
A voice that finds warmth.
A relaxed look.
All information tells us that Chairman Choi Kun-wook’s decision was positive.
“I will watch.”
“thank you. President.”
Chairman Choi Kun-wook’s eyes are on me.
“Be mindful. Even though Yuna is my daughter, there is no help. Even if it fails. Rather, it will be a good experience to learn more about the world. But in the process of failure, don’t think that I will help you somehow.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
“I will watch.”
“yes.”
Does the story end here?
the moment you think about it.
“ah. There are contract issues left.”
Is it a mountain beyond a mountain? I just said I would watch it from President Choi Gun-wook’s mouth, but I didn’t say I would allow it.
But what followed was truly surprising.
“I will call you back soon. Then bring the contract.”
“yes?”
“why? Did you know that you wouldn’t allow it just because you said you’d watch it?”
“no.”
In fact, I thought there would be no permission.
Chairman Choi Gun-wook burst into laughter as if he had read my thoughts.
“However, there is a condition. Just like now, take a video of our youngest and send it to me.”
This is not to say that Yuna’s daily life should be included.
Efforts to achieve the dream of being a singer.
It means to show Yuna, who is full of joy and sorrow in the process of trying.
“All right. President.”
As I was about to leave the door after I finished talking, I heard Chairman Choi Kun-wook’s words behind me.
“Thanks to your stupid move, I trust my daughter. If you disappoint me, I will always take you, so take care and take care of it properly.”
One hurdle was crossed.
All that’s left now is sprinting without brakes.
*
Yuna’s expression hardened as she left the vocal academy after the lesson.
It was because he knew very well who the person in the place where Park Il-do was supposed to be was waiting for.
“miss. Long time no see. The president told me to bring him.”
I don’t even see him nearby, as if he’s already talked to Park Il-do.
It was then.
The text message came to Yuna’s cell phone.
“uh? Boss?”
It was a text from Choi Woo-hyuk.
have a good trip
This means that the story with Choi Woo-hyuk is over. Yuna, who hardened her face at the message, followed Knight Kim.
“What kind of chicken are you calling all of a sudden? I usually don’t even eat it because it’s not good for my body. And Dad hates chicken.”
Yuna groaned and sat down.
Strangely, he had a negative attitude toward chicken.
“It’s Yuna. Your father prepared it because you like chicken.”
Mrs. Kim Hye-in is by her side.
At that time, Chairman Choi Kun-wook stretched out his chopsticks and picked up one leg.
Then, he placed the bridge on an empty plate in front of Yuna.
“tooth. Because I’m a seasoning fan. He said he was tired of eating too much fried food in the past.”
“Have your tastes changed? I ate with your mom yesterday and it was pretty good.”
She grumbled, but Yuna also picked up a piece of leg and placed it on an empty plate in front of the two of them.
“okay. How was it when you left the house?”
“you!”
Chairman Choi Geon-woon’s words were followed by the angry voice of Mrs. Kim Hye-in next to him. Normally, he would be stingy, but not today.
“You are quiet today. Today, I’m going to listen to our maknae’s thoughts.”
Mrs. Kim Hye-in, who was trying to get angry, shut her mouth. Because of the different eyes from my usual husband.
Didn’t you suddenly bring two fried chicken yesterday?
Why don’t you take out the tablet PC and show the daughter’s video where you got it?
Today, at most, I will call my daughter and put her two fried chickens on top, just like yesterday.
It was the husband who suddenly became strange.
“Dad mom. I am so happy.”
And Yuna, who had been silent in the midst of it, opened her mouth.
with a determined look.
