God of Money-Chapter 110:
Chapter 110: <Sudden decline>
Jung Jinsup stammered. โAโฆare you crazy?โ ๐ง๐๐ฒ๐we๐noัต๐l.๐o๐ฎ
โYou are the one whoโs crazy. What do you do here?โ
โI am a director.โ
Park Jonghyun flinched, but then remembered Woosungโs assurance.
โNo matter what anyone says, you are the representative of the CEO. This means you are basically the acting CEO until further notice. You are the boss. Donโt forget what your role is in this company.โ
Park Jonghyun replied confidently, โWho cares? I am the CEOโs representative.โ
They argued like little kids. The other employees laughed at them secretly. Jung Jinsup couldnโt calm down. He had never been treated like this before.
He asked, โYouโฆ. Do you know who I am?โ
โYou just said you are a director here. So what? Is there anything else I need to know?โ Jung Jinsup was fuming, but Park Jonghyun continued rudely. โDo you think this is a joke? Donโt you get that I am your boss? This is ridiculous.โ
It was now clear, Park Jonghyun was above Jung Jinsup.
Jung Jinsup left the office in anger. He screamed as he walked out, โWeโll see.โ
Jung Jinsup called Woosung. โHey, how could you! That guy is the boss?โ
Woosung stopped himself from laughing and replied calmly, โYouโre being rude. He is a representative of a major investor and that is why he has that position. You canโt act like that.โ
โI canโt do this. Why donโt you buy back the shares you sold to that guy, or open another company?โ
Woosung paused so Jung Jinsup thought he was thinking about it seriously.
He then replied, โHaving investors minimizes the risks. You know that very well. He belongs to a big investor who also has a lot of influence in US finances. We need him.โ
โโฆ But this is unacceptable.โ
Woosung raised his voice slightly, โDidnโt I tell you how important it is to have a US connection? He is a very important investor that got me where I am today. I was a mere employee at Nuri Finances only a year ago.โ Woosung paused before continuing dramatically. โHe made me who I am today. He is the one who taught how to analyze data.โ
Jung Jinsup had no reason not to trust Woosung. He said helplessly, โSo there is no other choice?โ
โIf you donโt like it, then you can leave at any time.โ
โโฆโ
When there was no answer, Woosung continued, โDonโt you want to reclaim your throne? Just trust me.โ
Jung Jinsup finally agreed and hung up.
When he returned to the office, Park Jonghyun said to him callously, โWell, look who came crawling back. GET BACK TO WORK! The number one rule in MY company is excellent time management. Got it?โ
Jung Jinsup gritted his teeth, but he walked to his desk.
โDammit. I will make you pay for this.โ
---------------------------------------------------------------
Woosung laughed as soon as he hung up the phone. โHahahahaha.โ
After the call, Woosung walked into the VIP departure lounge in Incheon International airport.
Jang Gwangchul asked Woosung, โWhat are you planning now?โ
โHahaha. Nothing.โ
โYouโฆโ
Woosung could guess what Jang Gwangchul was thinking. โHahaha, itโs not what you think. It has nothing to do with money.โ
โYou know you canโt lie to me, right?โ
โI know.โ
Just then, they heard the announcement for the flight. Woosung and his employees got onto the plane to China. There was a total of eight passengers including Park Byungki, Jang Gwangchul, and Hong Soobum.
Woosung bought first class tickets for everyone. The lower ranking employees murmured among themselves in shock.
โThis is my first time ever being on the first-class seat.โ
โTโฆthis is amazing.โ
โOh my god, you can lay down!โ
โFree drinks! Itโs like a hotel.โ
โDid you see the meal? We are going to get three-course meals including steaks.โ
Park Byungki asked Woosung worriedly, โIs it ok to spend so much of company money like this?โ
Woosung answered loudly so everyone could hear him, โItโs ok to do so if itโs necessary. All our employees need to maintain good health for our products to turn out great. This is how we will make our Blue S smartphone the best in the world.โ
Jang Gwangchul also added. โBy the way, Lee Ari will be joining us for the opening ceremony. As you suggested, we hired her as the spokes model for LetChat service. The commercial will be aired starting next month.โ
Woosung asked, โWe spent 2 million dollars for her, right?โ
Jang Gwangchul stammered, โTโฆthatโs right.โ
โAnd how popular is Lee Ari in China?โ
Jang Gwangchul remained quiet. He made a fuss when Woosung made this deal, but it was nowhere near Lee Ariโs worth in China now. After her last TV series became popular in China and other Asian countries, Lee Ariโs popularity was through the roof.
Suddenly, Lee Ari and her manager walked in.
She greeted Woosung, โLong time no see, sir.โ ๐ณ๐ฏ๐e๐e๐๐ฏ๐ฮฝ๐l.๐o๐ข
Woosung smiled and replied, โWow, it has been a while. I havenโt seen you since the day of our TV commercial shoot.โ
Her manager smiled awkwardly.
Lee Ari said to Woosung, โThatโs right. It was the day you stood me up at a hotel.โ
โHaโฆhaโฆThat sounds strange when you say it like that.โ
โOh, Iโm surprised you care. I apologize.โ
Lee Ari replied sarcastically.
Woosung sweated profusely and apologized, โI am so sorry about that. I had a good reason, but it still is unacceptable. I am truly sorry.โ
โHaha, itโs alright. I got a good dinner out of it.โ
While Woosung smiled uncomfortably, another woman and a man walked in.
Yoo Sona and her manager.
Since she was hired for the Coconut Talk, her popularity has gone up significantly to a point that she was now at the same level as Lee Ari.
When Yoo Sona saw Woosung, she flinched.
Jang Gwangchul grinned and explained, โOh, I forgot to tell you. I also asked Yoo Sona to join us. She is very popular in China as well. You approve, right?โ
Woosung was now sweating visibly. Jang Gwangchul grinned knowingly.
Woosung smiled awkwardly and replied, โYโฆyes. Good job.โ
Finally, the announcement was made for everyone to take a seat and fasten their seat belts.
---------------------------------------------------------------
The One opening event.
Daeyangโs Choi Taemin attended himself to boost its sales. Jun Taewon whispered to Choi Taemin.
โTK is doing everything it can to make The Oneโs launch a success.โ
โHaha, thank you for your hard work.โ
While they chatted, the name of The Oneโs first buyer was announced.
โCongratulations to Kim Namyoung! You are the first owner of The One. How do you feel?โ
โI canโt believe it!โ
Choi Taemin hired a famous MC for this event. He wanted to make it into as big of an occasion as possible.
The MC asked excitedly, โSo Namyoung, who would you like to call first with your new phone?โ
โMy parents.โ
โThen do it!โ
Kim Namyoung dialed. When she placed the phone against her ear, she felt it becoming warm. Quickly, her mother answered.
โMom, itโs me.โ
โOh, whatโs going on?โ
โI got the very first The One from Daeyang!โ
Suddenly, the phone became too hot for Kim Namyoung. She dropped it, and as the phone hit the ground, it started to smoke.
Everyone stared in shock.
Minus 12%.
That day, Daeyang Systemโs stock dropped to its lowest price ever.
