Chapter 244 – Part 2. 1993

On Friday, Sung-jin attended the founding ceremony of a credit information company.

As for the employees, we only had to hire a few employees to do the paperwork and accounting work, and the rest of the people to be collected were former and current gangsters, so the company was quickly established in less than two weeks after the word came out because all we needed was an office.

In the future, there would be a lot of messy things going on here, so Sung-jin prepared the capital, but instead of taking the stake, he lent the money to the CEO and received interest.

And since they didn’t pay interest, they made them pay in arrears, so Sung-jin took over the company later.
In short, it was someone else’s company on the outside, but everything in reality belonged to Sungjin.

The gangster who was appointed as the CEO was an elite gangster who graduated from Kwang-shik’s favorite university.

She said it was a founding ceremony, but Seong-jin didn’t like to be deeply connected with her gangsters, so she didn’t attend directly, but the three of them, Gwang-sik and the CEO, were meeting in her president’s office.

She had already notarized through her lawyer that she had lent funds to her CEO.

It was the first time Seong-jin had met her CEO, an elite mobster, but secretly rumors about Seong-jin had spread around Gwang-shik, so the CEO was quite careful in front of Seong-jin.

Gwang-sik hyung-nim also encouraged her by telling her CEO to do well, and she threatened to kill her if she betrayed her.

The elite gangsters clearly understood the credit information company’s debt discount and debt collection system, probably because they had graduated from college.
She was and she was definitely aware that this was her money.

Seongjin gave instructions to not collect greenbelt land, factories, buildings, etc. Among the receivables coming from mutual credit unions in the future, and to work so that the ownership can be transferred to Mirae Construction.
Like Pangyo or Daejeon, she specifically told me which area to eat the most.

After giving her work instructions, the elite gangsters were sent down to hold a founding ceremony, while Sung-jin talked with Gwang-shik alone.

“Brother, how did you bring in funds from Japan?”

“Huh. The story is going well, she said, as if she was also looking for a place to invest. Hopefully there will be good news soon.”

“How much is the amount?”

“Like you said last time, I’m thinking about 100 billion.”

A sense of ease was seen in Gwang-shik, who spoke her words.
It had grown to this level without knowing it, and now it was naturally putting in its mouth an enormous amount of 100 billion won.

“Brother, if you can, try raising the amount a little more, if possible, about 200 billion.”

“Why? Where else can I use it?”

“Brother, I think I need to get my hands on the power now.”

“Why? What happened? Before that, you tried to stay one step away from power, so why are you suddenly trying to get closer to power?”

Sungjin couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
She couldn’t bear to say that it was because of her mother and sister Young-hee.

“It is because there are many things to protect. I might be able to eat well and live well if I earn the amount I am now, but I think I will need power like any other conglomerate to grow up.”

“Okay. It’s normal. Money without power can be taken away by someone else at any time. If so, what are you planning to do next?”

“As soon as the money comes in, please buy more other mutual savings boxes and create the 2nd Future Mutual Savings Bank. That’s why we’re bringing in 50 billion in government subsidies just like this time. And I plan to attract that 50 billion to our side by widely distributing it to members of the National Assembly and government officials.”

“Hmm. Good way. Then, what should we do with the existing 50 billion?”

“First of all, create a Swiss bank account for 30 billion and give it to the President. The other day, I met the President at the Blue House. The President also decided to accept it without saying anything, so I think it will be okay for my brother to pass it on quietly.
Also, make a separate Swiss bank account for 20 billion won and deliver it to former President Kim Se-joong. It is money to prepare for the next presidential election.”

“I get it. I will prepare it right away. And let’s make a list of the members of the National Assembly who will distribute the next 50 billion won.”

“Yes. All right. I guess I’ll have to go a little more aggressive now. Ah! Also, when bringing in funds from Japan, bring in dollars if possible. You say you pay interest in dollars.”

“Huh? Why is it a dollar all of a sudden?”

“Soon the price of the yen will soar. So the dollar is good for us. The dollar price will be around 800 won per dollar for the next few years, which is much better for us. Please keep the interest rate as low as possible.”

“Huh. The interest rate has been decided to be 6% per annum, which is double the interest rate in the Japanese market.”

“If you can lower it, lower it. If you pay in yen, if the price of yen rises, the actual interest rate paid may exceed 8% per year. So I have to pay in dollars.”

“Okay. I know what you mean.”

“How long can Japanese funds come in?”

“We are almost done talking now. If it was 100 billion won, I could bring it in right away next week, but it will take some time because the amount is increasing and I have to change the terms to dollars as you said. But I wonder if it will be possible within this month..”

“Then, the acquisition of the 2nd Mirae Mutual Credit Cooperative will be possible right away, right?”

“Yes. I will direct that to the directors as well.”

“How did the acquisition of the securities company go?”

“Huh. I also finished talking to the lawyer. We decided to acquire it at a total price of 28 billion won, and we decided to take it as an employment succession.”

“Good for you. Then I will talk to the lawyer about it and pay the bill within the next week.”

“Okay. I get it. And next Wednesday, right?”

“Wednesday? Why?”

“Why, man. We should hold a ceremony to start a security company.”

“Ah. Are you ready already? I thought it would take some time to organize and train people.”

“They are already trained. They were trained hard to be used in wars with other organizations in the past, so they can be put into action right away. And the rest of the members are those who have been released from prison and have been playing, and among those who have served in the military, we have gathered them.”

“Ah. Good for you. I’ve been a little anxious these days… And I also told the President. We’re going to set up a security company, so use it for what you need…”

“Oh, did you? It will be easy to get on our side if you give some money to the members of the National Assembly and take care of the dirty work behind the scenes.”

Certainly, I communicated well with Kwang-sik hyung.
Kwang-sik hyung also had a smile on his lips while talking about whether he felt that.

“Brother, if we can make it to the next president, I think there will be great results soon. I plan to group all companies, including Mirae Construction, Mirae Health, and Kim Hee-kyung Food, within this year.”

“Oh. So, are you also the group president now? Haha. Congratulations. That’s why you’re trying to get this close to power.”

“Yes. There are parts like that. We will group them together and establish what we call a holding company.”

“A holding company? What is it?”

“Currently, large companies are not grouped together because which large company is the main axis? For example, the Jangseong Group is grouped into the Jangseong Group because Jangseong Electronics is the main axis. However, the group may be shaken depending on the performance of Jangsung Electronics. So, instead of doing that, I set up a paper company and put stocks of group affiliates in that company. Then you don’t have to worry about performance. It is called a holding company. We will also bring together each of the affiliates, of which I am the majority shareholder, as subsidiaries of one company. And I plan to list the holding company on the stock market.”

“Oh, there was such a good way. That way, tax avoidance is possible.”

“Yes. I’ll tell you in advance when I set up a holding company, so you should also take a share.”

“Okay? Thank you for giving it to me. Our companies do not have bank loans, and they are literally real companies, so if you only have a stake, aren’t you just sitting and making money? Okay. How much do you plan on giving?”

“Whoops. I can’t give you much. How about 10 percent?”

“Ugh~ 10 percent? Thanks. Sungjin. Let’s go together from now on.”

“Sure. Of course. Even if I don’t believe in my father, I believe in my older brother.”

I thought maybe the person Seongjin trusted and relied on the most was Kwangshik-hyung.
Maybe that’s why he deliberately handed over the shares and tried to tie him up next to Seongjin.

Seong-jin’s inner thoughts, anyway, the conversation with Kwang-sik hyung was very friendly.

She passed the time talking about this and that for a while, and after Seong-jin stopped by the company for a while, she left for Gapyeong with a small unit.

Before she had dinner, she had to start, so she had no choice but to drive Aunt Hye-jeong’s car.

The road she was running now was the way to the villa, and she had been on the road with her mother a few days ago, so Sung-jin felt very friendly.

Since there was no navigation system, she was able to get to the empty place by going all the way to Gapyeong and asking people for directions.
Fortunately, she was not far from the main road, so it was easy to find without getting lost.

Still, since she was the first to come, it was already past 7pm, perhaps because she came slowly.

It was next to a babbling stream, so after crossing a small bridge, Seongjin parked his car in an empty lot and went inside.

People were all gathered in a large space like an auditorium, as if dinner had already been eaten.
Professors gathered at the front of the auditorium, and first-year students sat around in groups.

In the middle of the table, various snacks and drinks were placed.
There was a moderator in front of her as if she was doing recreation, and she was all laughing and chatting loudly.

Nowadays, people would set up a grill outside and grill meat while drinking and playing, but at that time, such luxury was unthinkable.
So, she would sit down like this, drinking sweets and various dry snacks, and drinking.

Seong-jin doesn’t want to break the mood, so she sneaks in quietly and sits in the back of the group.

When Seong-jin appeared, she said hello to everyone, and when this side became noisy, all eyes suddenly turned to this side, and it became widely known that Seong-jin had arrived at last.

The professors call Seong-jin, greet her, get her to drink, stop punishing her for coming late, ask Yeong-hee why she came so late, give her a drink, take her to Mi-yeong Kim and drink again, and the girls say they want to drink with Seong-jin, so they drink again, and Seong-jin I drank really crazy in a short amount of time.
And Seong-jin knocked her out.

Suddenly, she felt someone kick hard on Sungjin’s foot.
Seongjin was sick and annoyed at her, so he tried to get up.

However, her body did not move and only her head was lifted.
It was her foot that was obviously hit, but the one that hurt was her head.

Seong-jin couldn’t raise her head properly because of her pain, causing her head to break.

‘Eh? What? Why am I sleeping?’

Seong-jin was having an embarrassing experience where she couldn’t remember how the hell she fell asleep.

But what was even more absurd was that Seong-jin was lying on one side of her room, and her four girls, two by two, were sleeping on her arms.

When I turned my head to the right, I saw Kim Mi-young clinging to Seong-jin’s armpit, hugging Seong-jin and sleeping snugly.
Behind him, one of them hugged Kim Mi-young from behind and slept with Seong-jin’s arm cut.
The situation was the same for the left arm.

His head hurt, but Seong-jin couldn’t remember how this absurd situation had happened.

She seems to have given almost everyone a drink a while ago, she vaguely remembered Sung-jin going out in front of her and showing her shadowboxing like a madman, and she sang a few songs.

But why these girls, four at a time, were sleeping on Sungjin’s arm, I couldn’t remember at all.

Suddenly, I thought of Younghee noona.

‘It’s fucked up. If Yeong-hee sister saw this, it would look like a mess.’

However, there was no way that Young-hee hadn’t seen him sleeping like this.

Seong-jin quickly decided to look for Young-hee, thinking that she might not have seen Young-hee if she had fallen asleep early.
She looked up and pretended not to know if she was already asleep, and she had to get down on her knees and beg if she wasn’t asleep yet.

Sungjin carefully pulled her arm away from her girls.
Fortunately, she didn’t think of waking up at all because she was all drunk.

When I pulled out her arms and raised her up, her arms went numb.
There was no crazy person like her.

How the hell did he get four women to sleep in her arms?
