Rumble! profit!
Ahn opened the door to Kwak’s studio and entered. The smell of roasting meat vibrated from the induction stove on the small countertop.
“👅👅👅 What, did you call me to eat meat?”
“Yes, Manager Jang gave us a box of Korean beef to eat.”
“But why did I give it to you? If you want to give, you should have given me.”
“Girl is…. There is so much to say about a topic that came in late!”
Manager Ahn roamed and roamed in the room. Although the range hood was working hard, it could not completely handle the savory aroma of Korean beef.
“It’s snowing outside! It was the first snow, so I had a light drink.”
“alone?”
“I buy a can of beer and eat it on a park bench while watching the snowy night view, so how many people do you need?”
“Alone Cheongseungeun…”
Manager Kwak crossed over to the table holding a frying pan with meat that had been grilled to eat. As soon as they put the frying pan down on the pot stand, the two of them started chopsticks relentlessly.
“Aww! Hey, it just melts completely.”
“This is the end of the day. Even if you can’t do it, will you arrange 150,000 won to 200,000 won per kilo?”
“You just gave me this? Also, it’s Manager Jang. The scale itself is very different from others. So how much is this? Huh!”
Director Ahn admired the meat left on one side. It was not a pack, but one box seemed to weigh about 3-4 kg.
“Is there no beer here? Let’s pull mulberry with meat today.”
“There will be a few in the refrigerator.”
When Manager Kwak answered, he hurriedly ran to the refrigerator. I was afraid that if I wasted even one second, the amount of meat to eat would decrease, so I moved quickly.
“Yeah, what is this?”
“I brought it because there is a recycling label in front of the building. Just looking at it, it looks expensive, so I’m going to use it.”
“I didn’t see anything like that?”
“I think it has already been collected.”
There were cosmetic bottles that I had never seen on the refrigerator. On the way home from work, there were a lot of things piled up in front of the house, so Manager Kwak brought some useful things.
“Just looking at it, the bottle looks expensive. Surely this lid is not really gold?”
“Hey, maybe!”
“But isn’t this women’s cosmetics? Can a man wear something like this?”
“Human skin is there, what are you talking about! If you think it’s weird, throw it away again and that’s it. And he hadn’t even opened it. From the date of manufacture, it was less than a few months.”
“Is this French? I don’t know what you’re talking about. Sniff!”
Manager Ahn opened the gold lid of the cosmetic bottle and smelled it. Again, it was not a scent that you would normally smell in the market.
Then oh! I opened the refrigerator and brought a few cans of beer. In the interim for a while, the meat was greatly reduced.
“Cheep! But what kind of monk are you? You don’t have enough money to pick up cosmetics on the street and use it, do you?”
“Save it so you can live well. You don’t have to pay money to buy something you can save, right?”
“However, there is no need to save on cosmetics. What the hell are you trying to do with it?”
Ahn asked what he had been curious about before. Kwak had dreamed of an early retirement, but he had not yet spoken in detail about his later life.
“I’m just going to do nothing. We live by drinking and playing games all day long.”
“Isn’t that a complete bummer?”
“What if you are a delinquent? I’m the only one having fun But isn’t that a crime?”
Ahn was at a loss for words for a moment. I knew this guy was an idiot, but I couldn’t predict that he was a complete idiot.
“So are you? How long are you going to live like this?”
“Well, maybe for a lifetime? Or until my child is born…? You have to shut up to know that, huh!”
“Aren’t you tired of chasing idols?”
“No way? It’s not boring, but sometimes Hyunta comes. To be honest, Hyunta came to me for a while before, and I was alone. ‘What the hell am I doing now?’ do···. Huh!”
“But why do you keep doing it?”
“Because it’s the same if we’re in a relationship. I didn’t even believe in love in the first place, and after dating for a while, I was like, ‘Is this right?’ What I want is the same as now. No time, sometimes no money. But girl groups don’t pressure me because I don’t have money or time. You don’t know me in the first place.”
“Then when you retire and marry another man…”
“So Hyunta came. No matter how much I like Dain, no matter how much I like Dain, in the end…
“If you know, stop! What kind of sage is that?”
“Are people’s hearts broken so easily? I’ve loved it since debut! He said that he participated in fan signing events and comeback stages no matter what.”
“That’s why I can’t let go of my regrets, even if it’s someone else’s woman…?”
“Now I feel like a daughter. Can you say that you have been watching a woman grow up? If you support well until the end and live happily ever after…”
“At that time…?”
“I need to find another girl group. Still, there are kids I’m keeping an eye on these days…”
“done! only do verse 1 This child!”
“Why is your child so angry? If that’s the case, go ahead and grill some more meat. It’s even more annoying if you cut it in the middle.”
Manager Ahn grabbed an empty frying pan and waved it in front of him. The bulky meat had already disappeared.
With a sigh, Manager Kwak stood up with an empty frying pan. Manager Ahn asked, slowly savoring the remaining meat in his mouth.
“Aren’t you happy to work? I’m having a lot of fun working these days. Thanks to Director Jang, my authority to write has increased, and I am excited to be ahead of others. That’s why I don’t think I want to date any more.”
“… I also enjoy working. However, as the authority expands, the responsibility becomes heavier as well. There are more and more things to be concerned about…”
The back of his grilling meat again looked tired for some reason. Because of his perfectionist-like personality, he was also under a lot of stress.
“What are you worried about? You know when you see Chief Jang. Whether you make a mistake or fail, in the end, you unconditionally turn it over. As long as you don’t give up, you will surely succeed in the end!”
“…well, I’m not sure about that… Even if it’s just about reducing mistakes as much as possible. What we’re doing right now isn’t just a project, is it? The number of people is getting bigger and bigger, and seeing the expectations from all directions sometimes takes my breath away…”
“Wow! That’s it.”
Ahn also agreed. In fact, in the Kangho group, the most attention these days was the Planning Team 3.
Everyone was breaking the idea that it was impossible and achieving visible results. In addition, Min-seok, the head of the planning team, was gradually rising as the next president.
By attracting large partners such as G Company and Daeyoung Group, they solved all political problems that no one expected to be able to solve.
Those who did not know the contents of the story looked at the situation and assumed that everything was led by Min-seok. And I believed that because of that situation, the brothers Mintae and Mingyu went crazy and made an extreme choice to make up for their weaknesses.
And now, in fact, Min-seok has been solidified as the next president. So, director Yang, Cheol-woo, and the two managers, who can be said to be his direct lines, had no choice but to get attention from all of them.
“Probably more than half of the group, inside, begging us to fail…. The higher the seat, the better.”
“okay! Maybe that’s why, but there are quite a few people who secretly bet on other things inside the company without knowing it or not.”
“You don’t know that it’s all useless. It’s like a one-day dog who still doesn’t know what kind of person Jang is. Huh!”
Manager Kwak came back with a frying pan with an indifferent expression. Anyone who has ever been through such a thing would not have thought of such useless thoughts.
“But what about the temporary building?”
“Did you hear it too? Manager Jang added another job, but he entrusted it to Geumdong Construction…”
They chewed the meat hard and made fun of them. There were more and more things that had to be prepared in line with the faster-than-expected progress.
“The president is coming in right away.”
“like! It looks like you’re still fine.”
Min-seok contacted Cheol-woo on the way to work. He called to go straight to the hospital.
After asking Director Yang to do some work, I drove straight to the hospital. I have no intention of going to work after lunch, so today’s commute to work is over the water.
Director Yang, who knew his behavior all too well, shouted over the phone, ‘Is the company a joke?’ However, at the one word of ‘visiting the president!’
There were even rumors in the media that Chairman Kang was in a coma from shock. But Cheol-woo did not believe such articles.
Due to Min-tae’s death and Mingyu’s disappearance, the secrets he had been hiding were slowly coming out. And because of the unusual death of Daeyoung group Cha Jun-gi, the media was in a state of fire.
At such times, the chaebols usually hid themselves in hospitals. Regardless of whether he had a chronic illness or a chronic illness, it was the norm to sit in a wheelchair and fight public opinion behind the scenes until he returned.
“Yes, you are here!”
“You look right. Chairman Kang.”
“I can’t see the nose here, but what are you talking about when you see an old man with an oxygen cord in his nose?”
Chairman Kang, who was half lying on the bed, greeted him first. He screamed in pain, but the color of his complexion didn’t mean he was lying in the hospital.
[All vital signs are normal.]
‘her! I have to say this is great. You’re too healthy for a bastard to die, right?’
Chairman Kang must have read the strange gaze of Cheol-woo. He said bluntly that it was nothing.
“Is there one or two more shocking things in the world? By my age, everyone has been through wars and even dictatorships. I’ve been through all sorts of things to come this far. This means that this country did not come for free. Two days!”
“Are you still too straight-forward?”
“You don’t have to put your mind in one place. If I am crying because I am sick, who will feed me some rice?”
Also, age wasn’t a joke. I live with pain every day, so I have this kind of strength.
“What did you call me for?”
“Hey! No matter how good I look, is that enough to say hello? This is too sweet!”
“I am very busy. So much so that I don’t even have time to hang out with the unemployed white beast…”
“her! This is true, this is the first time in my life that someone calls me a white man again. I want this because I’m so embarrassed!”
“If you don’t have anything else to do, let’s go…”
At Chairman Kang’s nonsense, he resolutely tried to turn around. The joke didn’t work, so Chairman Kang hastily caught him.
“What do you think the pharaoh will be like?”
“There will be no issues. Anyway, I would like to meet some politicians on that issue.”
“How do you meet a big guy who can influence this edition of the only manager?”
“If you smoke a little money, it will crawl on your own. Everyone must be anxious because their funds are suddenly dry…”
“Don’t run out of money, what does that mean?”
“There is such a thing. Let me tell you, a story that only hurts your mouth… Huh!”
“If you don’t throw away that sinister smile and expression, you won’t be able to succeed any more.”
“I do not know? You don’t want to be more successful than this, do you?”
“So, be ambitious! Are you going to live your life on the same salary that other people give you?”
“How about that? Even if I don’t go to work like this, my paycheck comes out little by little… I’m relaxed and I’m good.”
“Wow! Is that what you are going to say in front of the president now?”
“You are not lying! However, my work is going well without any setbacks.”
Cheolwoo said proudly. As he said, the Pharaoh started the construction, and the Incheon Complex Resort was shortening the construction period. Rather, the schedule was pushed forward so much that it was having a hard time sourcing materials.
“It is not. Anyway, by the way, I have one secret request from you guys!”
“A secret request? Can I politely decline that?”
“This is an old man’s earnest request. I want you to do my favor.”
“···········! this is true If you ask with that kind of expression, it will be difficult to decline. Instead, please grant me one request later.”
He wasn’t just going to pass. Whatever it was, I had to get one to release my intuition.
“Don’t do that!”
“Then I’m fine. What the hell is that request…?”
“Take care of Mingyu. No matter how bad it is, he’s my son. My children don’t seem to think of me that way…”
“Is that yangban still in Korea? If caught, he would be immediately charged with embezzlement…”
“No, not in my country. You should be in Hong Kong by now!”
Cheol-woo was at a loss for words for a moment. Why does that guy keep talking about Hong Kong…
