149: A quick glance (6)
The lights were still on in the FNK office. Cheol-woo visited Chang-sik first before meeting President Baek.
Everyone was busy moving around because of the company’s flagship 2 My Girl comeback. Changsik also said that he had been working overtime for several days, and he was very busy.
“Are you here?”
“Yeah, it looks like everyone is very busy?”
“Yeah, let’s sell it like you, who works for a large company and gets all the vacation days off, so a good guy wouldn’t know how I feel. Huh!”
“Hey, I just got off work from work! Do you know that only you in the world is having a hard time?”
“Still, you said you were leaving work. I don’t know that these days.”
“Damn it, it makes me speechless. Yes man, it will be very rewarding because you have a lot of bangs. Are you okay?”
“What did you say? In a country where you don’t even know when the day has passed… Anyway, nice to meet you. But maybe you…”
Changsik looked around and lowered his voice. As for the relationship between her friend Cheol-woo and Da-in, she has kept her mouth firmly shut to this day.
“Yeah, Dain came to see me.”
“All 2 My Girl members are sensitive these days, so be careful. I’m extremely nervous because I’m on a diet! Try not to stand out as much as possible.”
“Okay, should I buy something and go?”
“Eat as low-calorie as possible, but never bring a paste. Just looking at the weeds on the roadside will cause you to grind your teeth. I’m tired…”
“Five! I’ll take note. Then do your best Let’s have a drink when it’s free.”
“Yeah, be careful not to be seen by people as much as possible…”
Changshik wrapped his hand around his mouth and said in a very low voice. There was no one around, but there was nothing wrong with being careful.
“Yeah, did you catch me leaving work?”
Seeing him entering the president’s office, CEO Baek stood up and greeted him. The way she sits at her desk suits her pretty well now.
When Cheol-woo sat down on the sofa, CEO Baek sat across from him. A sparse gray hair was visible on his head, and his face was slightly slanted.
“no. These days, I was constantly working overtime because of 2 My Girl’s comeback.”
“I’m just trying. Should I ask Geumryongi to raise her salary a little?”
At Cheol-woo’s words, President Baek’s eyes gleamed with anticipation. But Cheol-woo was only saying it as a greeting.
“Then why did you want to see me?”
“Do you know by any chance that I’m Park Ji-young?”
“Are you talking about number one in the bond market?”
“Yeah, I already knew.”
“In the past, the sons of chaebols were reluctant to go after them, but there are some things that they picked up. Among the chaebols, there is no one who hasn’t borrowed Park’s money… I heard something like that. But why ask such a question…?”
President Baek said, tracing his old memories. He used to think, ‘That inspiration is so rich, I envy him!’
“Investigate that young man named Park. If it’s that big of a deal, wouldn’t the informant side have investigated something?”
“Park inspiration? He’s quite a big guy, so I don’t think even the informant can easily touch him…”
“Does the NIS pay attention to civilians these days?”
“It’s been a while. People live there too, but when you think about your old age, you can never touch someone who has money and has power. I’m the head of the National Intelligence Service, and I’m half a politician, so I’ll risk my life to get rid of the static, but the people hanging on it have to make a living.”
“… just stab me! And if there are people who want to retire at this point, I will bring them here…”
At Cheol-woo’s words, President Baek’s expression changed. It was because it was never an ordinary thing to attract an informant.
“Are you planning on running your own intelligence team?”
“Yeah, I have a lot more now. So I’m thinking of putting up a fence around it. You can’t go around shooting or shooting in the country. We need to increase our power so there will be no brute force.”
“As you may already know, running an intelligence team would cost a lot of money, wouldn’t it?”
“In a few weeks, investors will come from abroad. We will invest about 100 billion won, so prepare the necessary documents!”
“Wow, 100 billion?”
Baek’s eyes widened. It was the first time I’d heard of such a huge amount other than the news.
“What are you so excited about? I’m only looking at that for the first time…”
“The market cap of an entertainment company that went public last year and became a hit is about 1 trillion won. But wouldn’t it be surprising to hear that you are investing 100 billion won in us? I’m not buying a company, it’s just an investment… Is that company…?”
“Yeah, it has to do with me. So, don’t worry about money, and set up an intelligence team…”
“all right! Loyalty, Loyalty!”
President Baek jumped up and saluted him. Then, his mouth shouted ‘loyalty’ over and over again.
“hey! Because of the money, it doesn’t look like much, doesn’t it?”
“It’s me who messed up my life because of that damn money. Rich people are gods and objects of faith to me. I am not ashamed of anything.”
President Baek exclaimed proudly. He earned like a dog, lived thin and long, and became a yo-shaped yo-shaped.
When I was robbed at once with the stock of the money I had accumulated like crazy, I knew for sure how difficult it was to raise money. The poor people in the world seemed to him a successful life.
The Ilryong Brothers did not even play with them because they had no money. They had more money in the current bankbook…
“I think that means you can switch to another line at any time if you give me a lot of money…?”
“Yes? Oh no. How dare I make another line…”
“Hey, you’re blurry! Well, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to change once if you’re capable. Of course, I can’t say for sure what’s going to happen. Huh!”
“…it will never happen. Loyalty, Loyalty!”
“My father-in-law, who doesn’t work, should stop trembling and ask for information about Park’s inspiration, as soon as possible…. Also, quickly organize the information team. You can tell Geumryong what money you need right now.”
Cheol-woo, who had simply finished the task, stood up without any regrets. Why do you have to come all the way here to do something you can do over the phone for a business like this? It was when I thought
“Then, shall I go see Dain, are you still at work?”
“I will be in the practice room now. I am there all day these days to practice with my colleagues.”
It was CEO Baek who knew why he had come here. It was because of her that he was saving her life until now.
“ah! I’m going to have to go buy something… is there anything you can recommend?”
“Make it as low-calorie as possible. With the comeback coming soon, I am extremely concerned about weight management.”
“…that is, I understand. Still, it doesn’t have to suit women’s tastes. Hmm! Then, go ahead!”
“Yeah, I’ll go right out and get the information.”
Cheol-woo gave instructions to the Warrior as he left the president’s office. The Warrior showed some recommended menus through a search.
“oh! Brother-in-law?”
“hi! Do you have Dain?”
“Okay then, sister! brother-in-law is here Come out quickly!”
As I was trying to look inside through the window of the practice room, I ran into the youngest on the way to the bathroom. She recognized her and welcomed her warmly.
Then he opened the door and called Dain. Dain ran out of the practice room filled with the smell of sweat and moisture. She greeted him with a bright smile, her clothes and face covered in sweat.
“What about the company?”
“What’s going on…. I came running to see you.”
“Ho Ho! It’s nice to hear that lie.”
Dain smiled, twisting his body. The members who saw him belatedly greeted him in turn, and made fun of Dain with a mean expression.
“Your body is fine, doesn’t your complexion look great?”
“yes! are you okay. Seeing my brother’s face like this suddenly gives me strength. It’s because I’m on a diet and practicing all day, so don’t worry too much!”
“It is said that there is nothing as useless as worrying about celebrities, but after all, there is nothing in the world to eat raw. Seeing how hard it is to prepare for a comeback…”
“I can’t help it. It’s a market where you have to compete fiercely with other groups no matter how loyal your fans are. If we do, we may lose our seats to rookies…”
She knew where she was standing. Now, she had this moment she was living harder because she knew that and someday she’d have to walk downhill.
“Jang, our Dain… Oppa will protect you, so do whatever you want!”
“Chit, when you really miss me, you’re always not by my side…”
“The world is not something I can live on my own. Even if your body is not with you, know that your heart is always with you.”
“Are you talking like that with your bare mouth?”
“Then how about this?”
“Oh! What is it, earrings? …but this isn’t a necklace and a set, I think the design concept is the same…?”
“Hurry! That’s right, the necklace was finished first…”
“Brother, did you even hide the ring? If there were necklaces and earrings, there would be no way the ring would be missing…?”
She put on the earrings and flipped it over as if nothing had happened. Cheol-woo, who stabbed her in the corner, could not deny it.
“I hid the ring for later… I found out, so I should give it to you sooner.”
“What is it, if you want to give, you will give it all at once, so why burn people’s love affair?”
He spoke reproachfully, but his expression was very bright. When she saw her wearing her earrings, the other members of her said ‘pretty’ and admired her for a long time.
In this atmosphere, I could not say that I forgot to give it that day, even if I died. This fact had to be buried forever along with other secrets.
After a brief moment of appreciation, the girls began to concentrate on practicing again. He left the practice room saying he would wait until it was over to Dain, who was sorry.
He had pre-ordered food in the hotel kitchen recommended by the Warrior. They planned to bring their own food while they practiced.
“Damn, why do all women have ghostly nibs? Can you find out the reason, Warrior!”
While driving, I asked the Warrior what caused her to call herself a shaman. But she couldn’t even answer the Warrior.
“Let’s go together after practice. Two days off from today.”
“I have to come to practice tomorrow too…”
“Yeah, except for practice time, I’ll be with you…”
“really? Wow Shinara! Ho Ho!”
Cheol-woo brought a packed lunch from the hotel and returned to FNK. A lunch box containing mango and avocado in small-sized Korean beef tteokgalbi was enthusiastically welcomed by the girls.
They were very satisfied with the small party held with a small table in the practice room. I had a light dinner with them and looked around the practice room.
The practice room, toilet, and shower were separated by a hallway. Moreover, the whole floor was divided into several practice rooms, but there was only one toilet and one shower room.
“It’s not inconvenient to practice and wash, you sweat so much…?”
“Of course not. But even if it’s uncomfortable, I can’t help it. They say that if you want to make multiple toilets and showers, you have to work on the building’s boiler first, which makes the construction huge… Besides, it’s not even our company building.”
Da-in answered while eagerly munching on Korean beef tteok-galbi that melted before chewing. The other members also nodded at her words and were busy with chopsticks.
‘Hmm! Shall we buy an office building at this time?’
[Should I tell Mr. Baek that way?]
‘Yes, tell them to find out in advance so that they can move as soon as they receive the investment.’
[It has been delivered.]
Cheol-woo, who secretly prepared a big gift for her, quietly weighed whether the new office building would be expensive or whether the jewelry set he gave her would be expensive.
After eating like that, it was when I was in the parking lot waiting for her shower to finish.
The phone in his pocket rang, and the Warrior announced the caller. It was Linda.
