Became a Tycoon in a Night Game

chapter 38



38 – 38. Sniping (5)

The situation is going strangely.

No matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand it.

There are some parts that I understand.

What I did was reported in news articles and plastered all over the Internet, and was reported as a special feature in social accusation programs such as ‘Social Sniping’, even delaying the original broadcast.

Okay up to this point.

I don’t understand the rest of the process.

I have accepted the fact that I was at fault.

No matter how much of a gay game it is, it applies the same world view as reality, so it is true that throwing money at someone constitutes assault.

The act of throwing money with all your might.

I also admit that this is an action that deviates from common sense.

Then what’s strange?

There are two things.

First.

This became an issue too suddenly.

The time between the article being posted and the time it is scheduled to be broadcast is too short.

I’ve never worked at a broadcasting station, but at least when a story breaks, I’ll report on it, make a video, figure out cause-and-effect relationships, research data, or at least get a request for an interview.

That sequence has been deleted.

Well, it just feels like progress has been made.

This is a bit strange.

Second.

The fact that this happened even though I had special abilities that I gained after entering the game.

This is a problem that needs to be solved step by step.

It is also a question of whether I trust Yagame’s system or not.

If the premise that this game’s system works well is clear, this incident could serve as a great opportunity for me.

Not sure what I’m talking about?

You can look forward to that.

Anyway.

I went to the office where my father was.

My father.

President Seo Tae-hyun.

The eldest son of the founder of Seohwa Group.

A person with a very high possibility of succeeding to Seohwa Group.

When I search through my memories, what can I say?

Does this feel like a stubborn and solemn boss that only appears in hard-boiled dramas?

The force is different.

Even though he is my father, I don’t have a relationship where I can talk comfortably.

Looking back at Seo Woo Jin’s memories, we could see that he had a very difficult time since he was young.

President Seo Tae-han is a man of few words, does not make jokes at all, and shows a straight face if anything goes against his wishes.

Now that I’m older, I may feel like I’ve become a little softer.

Well?

There was no change in the fact that Seo Woo Jin was still a difficult opponent.

Therefore, your steps may be heavy.

It’s uncomfortable when you search for memories, but it’ll be even more uncomfortable when you meet them, right?

However, it cannot be avoided.

I heard this secretly the other day, and Chae-yoon Kim said that her father checked my schedule.

In other words, he was going to meet me anyway.

But the reason you want to meet now is different from the reason you wanted to meet then, right?

It’s exquisite.

As soon as the article broke, Director Kang Min-han, my father’s right-hand man, came running and asked to see me.

Probably 100% because of the article in which I appeared.

Anyway.

I think this crisis can be turned into an opportunity.

It seems like there is some kind of conspiracy lurking around, but it is a problem that can be solved step by step.

What’s important right now is what to do and what to talk about when you meet your father.

Now that I think about it, I’ve already arrived at my father’s office?

As I walked in, the first thing I saw was the desk where the secretary was sitting.

By the way.

Oh??

My father’s secretary is just as pretty as Kim Chae-yoon.

Do they select secretaries in a model selection contest or something?

Well, since it is a large company, the pay is good and the treatment is unique, so it seems like they select secretaries who are talented and good-looking.

My father’s secretary stood up and greeted me.

“Hello. “Director Seo.”

I nodded lightly.

“Is the boss inside?”

“Yes. “You are waiting.”

Now that I think about it, Director Kang just said he would see my father and disappeared?

Did you go do something else?

The secretary knocked and immediately opened the door.

As soon as I entered, I bowed deeply.

“Hello. President.”

When I raise my head, I see President Seo Tae-han.

It is heavy.

The first feeling was just heavy.

It was confirmed that all of the masculinity remaining on Seo Woo Jin’s face was received from this man.

The jaw line definitely looked strong.

My grandfather seemed small, but his father was different in size.

It’s not a big deal, but it feels like I got some exercise.

I’m not sure if I actually exercised.

Because as a son, I don’t know much about my father’s past.

First of all, not having much conversation with your children is a bad thing as a father.

But what can we do?

He is the one I must respect as a father in this game.

“Director Seo. “Take a seat.”

Hey.

My son calls me the head of the division.

Ah.

As soon as I arrived, I said I was the boss, right?

I glanced at the seat and sat down.

President Seo Tae-han also sat across from where I was sitting.

But what, are you ready to have a chat over a cup of tea?

“It’s been a long time. “How about going out and living?”

This is my first time seeing you since I became a monk.

Because it was a low-pitched voice, I felt like I was being scolded for some reason.

“I’m doing well.”

“Yes. “Still, stop by my house sometimes.”

Me? At home?

Oh my. I don’t like it.

Did Seo Woo Jin run away from home for no reason?

Still, he nodded lightly as if he understood without showing any signs of it.

“And did you call your mother?”

Ah. That’s right.

I also had a mother.

Even though he has a mother and a father, he acts like an orphan.

It’s actually very good.

There is no one to nag, right?

Since I never called my mother after I was possessed, I told the truth.

“I didn’t do it.”

“Call your mother. “I’m very worried.”

Then mom can call me?

First of all, since these were the words of my heavenly father, I nodded.

In fact, you can think of what I’m doing now as Seo Woo Jin’s behavior toward his father, rather than my original personality.

And this is the end.

President Seo Tae-han did not say anything else and got straight to the point.

“Do you know why I called you?”

“I have a guess.”

“Tell me.”

Why do you ask when you know?

I have to answer first.

“Didn’t you call me because of a newspaper article?”

“..I know very well. Are you going to explain what’s going on? Or are you going to make excuses?”

There is no excuse.

It is the media company’s position to fabricate and promote facts anyway, and it is up to me not to explain it there or to approach it in a different way.

But the problem is that I am not an ordinary person, but the grandson of the owner of one of the largest companies leading in Korea.

“I have nothing to say. Because actions are facts.”

President Seo Tae-han’s expression changed slightly.

“..Did I misunderstand you? “I knew him as a kid who likes to play, but doesn’t use violence against people.”

Violence?

I don’t like it either.

But the situation was such that I had no choice but to throw it.

If your father had been there, would you have picked up a bat?

The words rose up in my throat, but I didn’t think it was right to say it like that.

“I have nothing to say.”

“..As you know, today’s world cannot be said to be a good environment for people like us who run businesses. “Management isn’t everything, and every single one of our actions has a big impact on the group.”

I know.

Of course.

If something goes wrong with an article about abuse of power, there will be a boycott immediately.

I know that too, so I’m not trying to say anything or make excuses right now.

President Seo continued speaking.

“The chairman just came and left. “You said you met first. Did you say anything else?”

“He only said that when doing important work, you should not get involved in strange matters. “At that time, I didn’t even know you were mentioning this situation because I hadn’t seen the article.”

President Seo Tae-han’s eyebrows furrowed sharply.

“That’s it?”

“Yes.”

“I don’t understand. “He’s the one who will stop it somehow…”

“You probably thought it wasn’t an issue worth stopping.”

“..I see. “I think a little differently.”

President Seo Tae-han tapped the wooden part of the sofa with his finger.

It feels like calculating something.

He spoke again.

“Regardless of the fact, your actions were, on the surface, an assault. Don’t ask me what the reason was. I don’t want to hear an explanation of my feelings at that time. The important thing is that money was thrown in people’s faces. So I’m worried. “Whether it is through the public relations office or through my network, will this incident be minimized or covered up?”

I quietly opened my eyes and said.

“Wouldn’t it be difficult to conceal it? “All the articles came out.”

“The article came out. But concealing it is also my power.”

Oh.

A real man.

This is why chaebols get criticized.

Anyway. I appreciate you trying to do something.

But I shouldn’t bite here, right?

“It’s okay. President.”

“Isn’t this a situation where you can say it’s okay? This is not just a personal deviation. Your actions may affect our group. And the project you’re working on now, you might not be able to do it.”

“I know.”

President Seo Tae-han’s face changed strangely.

“..What are you confident about now?”

“I am confident. “Because I am proud.”

“Respectful?”

“Yes.”

Did I say it too strongly?

President Seo Tae-han was rather embarrassed and asked back.

“..Yeah. Let’s say you are honest. Still, there may be damage to our group.”

“There is no harm, and things can get better, right?”

“Huh?”

“You look like you don’t believe it.”

“..Is there something I don’t know? “Even if there are things I don’t know, I can just ignore the current situation, but there’s nothing that can turn out well, right?”

Father.

That’s because you don’t know what abilities I have.

Now that I think about it, even though it hasn’t been long since I was possessed, the compensation seemed a bit small.

Is it because I have a lot of things?

I don’t think there was any thought about compensation.

But now that a good opportunity has come, should we take a look at the reward?

“I think it will work out well.”

President Seo Tae-han crossed his arms and took a defensive stance.

“Director Seo. “Don’t say the impossible as if it were obvious.”

“..Did you say it was impossible? What would you do if I brought great benefit to our group through this work? Would you like to bet? Father?”

When he mentioned his father for the first time, CEO Seo Tae-han’s eyes shook strangely.
