chapter 43
deal breaker
“What the hell are you doing? What were the attendants doing? The bodyguards?”
“The master said it was complicated, so I was training with a minimum number of people… … .”
“Are you saying that now?”
As the president approached the secretary, the president’s wife’s face hardened.
“Where did you put it? We need to take action right away and get it down.”
“that is… … It’s an American account, and I can’t be reached.”
“Then I contacted the service company and said that if I do not close the account immediately, I will claim compensation. hurry.”
“All right.”
“ah. Where can I see that video?”
The secretary turned on the screen of the smartphone he was holding and handed it to the president’s wife.
As soon as the screen turns on, a young man smashing a woman in the face in a club full of people begins to play.
The man hit the woman in the head with the glass bottle he was holding.
puck! With the sound, the woman’s new form is torn down.
“This… … .”
The president’s wife’s complexion turned pale.
It was too far-fetched to see it as a simple assault.
“You mean this is spreading now? What are you doing? Hurry up and do something!”
She shouted at Secretary Yoon.
Secretary Yoon leaves in a hurry.
“President… … .”
The wife turned to her husband again.
“You have to stop being known for fame.”
It seems that’s all she’s worried about.
“It’s late. already.”
Chairman Ryu was not so lax as to think that the information power of fame was inferior to that of Daeyang.
“Our Geunseok… … You can’t leave it like this. The president knows.”
Her face was still pale.
“I haven’t asked for anything for the past 20 years with the president. I just want Geun-seok to do well. I really can’t. I’m actually scared Chairman’s sons.”
The woman was even weeping.
They were cold and selfish people, whether it was the tiara that inherited the blood of their father.
“Don’t worry. Geun-seok will do well.”
Likewise, the president, who had a hard face, exhorted his pity. If anyone else had seen it, they would have been surprised to know that he had such a face too.
“It should be fine. Don’t be good… … . Black!”
Geun-seok’s parents had no worries about the victim who was hit in the head and collapsed due to the violent assault of their child.
That night, neither Chairman Ryu nor his wife could sleep.
To prevent the spread of the already spreading assault video and to reduce the damage caused by it, the secretaries rushed to the office and received the report before dawn was coming.
And at dawn, the sons of the president came one by one.
Everyone comforted the president and his young stepmother with somber faces.
But on the other hand, in the absence of the two of them, he could not hide his unbearable smile with a glance.
They also knew how much the father loved the youngest.
Although this incident should not diminish his father’s affection, he thinks that he will not be able to say that he will give the youngest a large share in haste.
And in the morning, bad news comes one after another.
– The company is shaken by the successive deviations of the sons of the chaebol families. risky owner risk.
– A second-generation chaebol police officer arrested for having a promiscuous drug party while studying in the US
– From drugs to assault. Behavior that went too far for the second generation of chaebols. How will it affect the business?
The news outlets who smelled them started publishing articles one by one.
Of course, the pro-business media were still being sarcastic, but there were others that didn’t.
“It’s already too late to do it because of the video that went viral overnight.”
“It’s a big deal. I thought Freescale Gun was calming down now.”
“I’m worried about what will happen again when the market opens after a while.”
The president remained silent while the sons uttered one word at a time.
“It’s noisy, everyone go out and see things.”
It was only after the impatient father took his revenge that the sons left.
There was no need to live for nothing and live on his father’s wrath.
“I saw the video and it was what I was aiming for.”
When the sons who were reluctant to be the youngest disappeared, the old man opened his mouth with sunken eyes.
“It wasn’t just a coincidence. I was focusing on Geun-seok before it even happened.”
Even at the age of ninety, the old man’s eyes were bitter.
“It seems so.”
Director Oh answered with the phone in one hand.
“By the way, did you say that it didn’t even happen yesterday?”
“It happened a week ago. On that day, it seems that the attendant serving the master paid the woman appropriately and sent her back. It didn’t look like he was seriously injured.”
“Why didn’t the report come up that day?”
“It is said that the master gave the order to keep quiet. sorry. On that day, the attendant was not from ours, but from the US branch, so I couldn’t do it properly.”
“okay. I didn’t do it right. Goyan guy… … .”
Unlike other children, Geun-seok was not well controlled by his father. Perhaps it was because Chairman Ryu himself was too blunt to him.
Naturally, the subordinates had no choice but to be embarrassed about Geun-seok.
“Find out who the hell came up with this right now!”
The president’s anger did not diminish overnight.
“yes. I have already given instructions. But it seems difficult to pinpoint the culprit.”
“huh! goyan guys. how about You’re not one of the three, are you?”
“It seems so. Anyway, my brother… … .”
Director Oh had no choice but to be careful.
“What does brotherhood mean to them? Moreover, Geun-seok is a half-brother. These guys are the ones who try to bite even their own brothers whenever they see a gap.”
“Anyway, I don’t think it will be the case when things happen to the group as it is now.”
“You are gone too. Do you think they’ll cover it up? On the contrary, I think it will be more of an opportunity at times like this.”
Director Oh didn’t say anything.
“Hmm, don’t put too much effort into finding the culprit, and fix it properly. Do you think it will become a jewel?”
“yes. I will take you home by the end of the day.”
“Somewhere other than home. Organize a secret place, put it in, and don’t let it come out. I can’t just let it go any longer.”
The old man was giving instructions to the people without rest, even though he had stayed up all night.
“Is the news on the Daeyang Group?”
Yoosung said with a single voice.
Domestic news has not yet revealed which group is the son of the drug and assault, but the Internet has already spread enough to say that he is the 4th son of the Daeyang Group.
“Good.”
Eugene did not tell his brother that he was behind the incident.
Sometimes, even the younger brother has things to keep secret.
“He’s such a savage bastard. Watching the video, it was really dangerous.”
“That’s it. I could have died anyway.”
But in reality, her injuries weren’t that great.
I went to the hospital, the torn area was stitched with a few stitches, and I ended up taking antibiotics.
And until the detective Eugene hired came to her and persuaded her to file a complaint with the police, he seemed to be delighted with the thick bills he received from Geun-seok’s attendant that day.
However, he immediately hired a lawyer after the detective provided a video of the case and said he would get a very large settlement if he sued the police.
She didn’t even know that the Asian who assaulted her was a terrifying rich man from a country she didn’t even know about, but by now she’s inflated with dreams of counting money.
“But it doesn’t seem to have a big impact on the stock price. It doesn’t fall any further.”
“Because I’ve already fallen enough to fall. Even if it’s an owner risk, it’s normal. It has fallen this much, and there is no floor to fall further.”
But Eugene doesn’t really care.
What he didn’t want was to have more influence on the stock price.
Eugene did not want the Myeongseong group and the Daeyang group to become close.
The marital relationship between the two families won’t have much impact only after the death of the president of the ocean, but at least for as long as he lives, fame won’t let the crisis of the ocean go unnoticed.
No sane parent would want to give their daughter to such an idiot.
Of course, I don’t know if it’s from a family that runs a company or media company far below Daeyang, but if it’s about fame, there’s no reason to do so.
“Then let’s try accumulating Daeyang Electronics stocks again.”
“Do you think you’ll go up again?”
“uh. no doubt. We will have to do something to calm this situation down.”
“Is that so?”
Yoosung has also grown his eyes to see the situation quite a bit.
Eugene began to purchase Daeyang Group stocks using the money earned from the short sale.
In particular, the stocks of Daeyang Electronics, which fell to the bottom, and the stocks of Daeyang Motors, which suffered a considerable blow, were centered.
Again, use the appropriate leverage.
Unlike last time, most of the funds were transacted through foreign investment institutions.
When I hit the short seller, I had no intention of hiding it.
Rather, he publicly announced the short sale through an interview with the media.
But this time, I plan to do it more secretly than before.
Of course, I do not even think about trading through a domestic securities company.
Isn’t there a saying that personal information in Korea is a public good for all?
Around the time the accumulating is in full swing, a rebound begins to come.
Although the case of Ryu Geun-suk became a significant topic of discussion, it did not significantly affect the share price of Daeyang Group affiliates.
Daeyang Electronics’ stock price rebounded after it was announced that it would give up on the acquisition of Freescale and file a lawsuit to return the down payment.
In addition, analysts said that the uncertainty has been resolved and suggested a target price similar to last month.
In the news, an analysis showed that Daeyang is highly likely to win the contract for refund of the down payment with Freescale.
Without knowing how individual contracts were used, he took the side of Daeyang by creating imaginary contract phrases at will.
If we win the suit for refund of the down payment, it means that there is no damage to Daeyang. Of course, there is no reason why the stock price won’t go up.
The stock price of Daeyang Electronics records an upper limit every day as if to restore the share price that has fallen so far.
“Money becomes a copy. Copy… … .”
It went into a short sale with $600 million and made 1.5 trillion won, and this time, the stock price it bought on the other hand was rising without knowing the end, and the assets were being called wildly.
After two weeks passed, the stock price of Daeyang Electronics had risen by 10% compared to before the terrorist attack, and the stock prices of other affiliates were similar to or even higher than before the incident.
“Daeyang Electronics alone made 2.3 trillion won in profits. 1.2 trillion won from Daeyang Motors. The rest is about 600 billion won.”
This time, it seems that not only Eugene but also a lot of people who thought it was the bottom were not able to buy enough stocks from the bottom.
However, because the stock price of Daeyang Electronics fell so much, it was able to earn more than expected.
“It will be difficult to make a profit right now.”
Even after the stock price normalized, the amount of stock he held was quite large, so he could not immediately turn it into cash.
The stock price will fluctuate if you shake off that volume again.
“I do not care. There will be no big events for the time being.”
It seemed that it would take quite some time to convert the stocks that had been purchased into cash with a small loss.
“Then let’s get busy from now on.”
The brothers still had a lot of work to do.
