chapter 8
sibling
Eugene called a public relations agency in Seoul and asked for more detailed information about the man.
“It doesn’t matter how much money it costs.”
– know. you are rich now Does it really matter how much it costs?
“okay. As long as the information is useful.”
– Wow! We’ve been playing around with Sejong’s publicity! I’m tired! One Hogaeng is better than one company.
“Let’s have a drink when we come in. Come to think of it, don’t you think you have to shoot properly in the chin so that you don’t curse from behind?”
– One chin is not enough, so shoot two chins. older brother!
Eugene, who had been chatting and chatting with Cheol-woo for a while, brought up an additional request.
“And one more. About Ryu Geun-suk and his mother.”
– Ryu Geun-suk is the fourth son, right? Was your mother your second wife?
“uh. And never do anything dangerous.”
– Of course. What are we doing? It’s just a publicity agency. Never do anything risky against large corporations. It’s just gathering information.
“I know it is. You do it out of old age.”
– Is this guy the reason your father’s company is in trouble?
I was going to hang up the phone after telling him my business, but Cheol-woo said something.
“I’m not sure.”
– You are now the head of the Daeyang Solutions business division, where did Chaeyoung recently moved to?
Suddenly, the hook flies.
“I know that.”
– I don’t think it has anything to do with the fact that you broke your marriage, right?
That’s why I don’t like guys with nice touches…
Well, it’s not that I really hate it because it’s good at work as much as it has a nice touch.
“I do not know. I’m looking into it.”
– okay. Sorry for the useless words.
“If you know you’re sorry, you get 10% off your pay.”
– No, Gauguin! Where is that! Oh my gosh, what do we eat to survive? Don’t ever go off topic again. Save me!
He spoke nonsense in a forced dialect that did not even become Cheolwoo.
“I’ll give you life. Do your job well.”
– All right, sir. I’ll definitely post some hot info.
“And publicity.”
– Don’t worry about it. That’s our major.
After chatting again with Cheol-woo, who makes a loud noise, he hangs up the phone.
As he said, the publicity is credible. So, even when I was at Myeongseong, I gave a job to promote Sejong.
“Is Yooseong at home now?”
This time, after talking on the phone with my father, Eugene asked.
– okay. Came in after work. Boy, these days, you don’t drink with your friends and you’re quiet.
“By the way, if Yoosung isn’t very busy, can I call him here? It’s been a while until I receive the winnings, but it’s a little bit like being alone all the time. Even if it’s Yoosung, I think it’ll make me feel more comfortable when I’m with you.”
– Well then. It would be better if even Yooseong went with me. I don’t know anything else, but isn’t your brother not very reliable?
“Iknow, right. But would it be okay if Yoosung came here?”
– I have a lot of work to do anyway, so I don’t have to go to the company to do anything big. He’s been upset these days too, so it’d be better if he were there.
Yoosung won’t be of much help to the litigation process anyway. He is still full of young blood, so it is fortunate that he does not have an accident.
My brother and I have some things to do together.
Eugene will do a lot of secret things in the future, and there is no one in the world like her family to do those things together.
A few days later, I got a call that my brother was boarding a flight to the United States.
Eugene went to the airport just in time for arrival and picked up his brother himself.
“But who are these people?”
For the first time in my life, Yooseong, who had lived with the thought that no one would fall for her size, asked, feeling a little defeated.
“bodyguard.”
“bodyguard? ah! okay. I guess I’ll need it. America is such a dangerous place, isn’t it?”
“It’s not as dangerous as you might think. That’s how it came out in the movie. Even in LA, you just have to be careful with a few neighborhoods.”
In the past life, Eugene lived on Long Island, east of New York, and didn’t think it was particularly dangerous compared to when he was in Korea.
“okay? Anyway, my heart is reassuring. Hello! My name is Yoosung!”
Yoosung greeted the two dwarfs in hard-nosed English.
Standing with all three muscle masses, I feel somehow buried in a huge mountain.
“Would it be good for me to exercise too?”
On the way back to the hotel, Yooseong, who was struggling with the bodyguard, said softly.
“but. You’re only big, aren’t you all in the water? Exercising isn’t bad either.”
“It’s not a tide. Still, when I was in the military, I did some ironing. But it’s nice to see that the angle is right on the body.”
“Is it? You also have a base, so if you exercise a little, won’t you look like that?”
“But can I do a little?”
“Ask for help. And it’s good to build friendships.”
“I know. Hello, Roger.”
Yoosung opened his mouth with an awkward smile.
On the way to the hotel, Yooseong was busy talking to the bodyguards in short English and building friendships.
“But I am still stunned. How does this happen? I still can’t believe it.”
When we returned to the hotel and we were alone, the younger brother noisily shared his feelings about the good fortune that came to Eugene.
“I didn’t feel it for a long time either. No, actually, I still don’t feel it.”
It is precisely the feeling of returning to the past.
“Oh yeah. I live my life and all of these things happen. Anyway, congratulations, bro.”
Yoosung said with a smile.
“What congratulations. Would it be good only for me? Now that you have your share, let’s live with some spare time.”
“What is my share? I don’t want that from my brother.”
he was such a guy
Perhaps resembling the mother of a brother who is not very greedy, Yooseong pursued a life of uneasiness.
He joined his father’s company not because he wanted to inherit it, but simply because he liked it.
He was a simple guy whose hobby was taking pictures of flowers.
In a future that will never come, Eugene feels the suppressed anger rising again when he recalls the situations in which his father’s company went through a crisis and this innocent boy’s eyes were full of poison.
“Anyway, from now on, let’s all walk on the flower road as a family.”
“okay. Well, if hyung is good, then I am good too. But why did I tell you to come?”
“I have something to do.”
“What?”
“Take a picture.”
“Photo?”
“uh. You go with me, take pictures, and post them on social media.”
“Why on social media?”
“Look at people and envy them. I want to show you how to live if you win the American lottery.”
“I, indeed. What do you think? What the hell…? Are you going to show it to your sister?”
Yoosung seems to have remembered his older brother’s former fiancee.
“Do you think it’s such a shallow thought? What that person sees is unavoidable. What is important is what the world sees, and above all, the guys at Daeyang Heavy Industries.”
“What? What are you going to do by showing them to them?”
“Those guys, do you think people around the world will like our company?”
When we hear about disputes between large companies and SMEs, we tend to take the side of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
Moreover, there is much more to be said here this time.
“no. No way.”
“So. I’m going to get people’s attention just because I won a huge lottery here.”
“Hey, when my interview with hyung was published as an article in the newspaper, for a few days, the community with Daeyang Heavy Industries was on fire. Adding a little more lies, hyung’s name was more famous than a celebrity. And there were a lot of swearing at Daeyang Heavy Industries.”
“I thought so.”
“But the original issue quickly fades away. After a few days, it withers.”
“Of course. You need constant stimulation to lead an issue. It has to be a new issue every time.”
In my past life, I worked hard to make this story an issue.
It was because he thought that if the law could not solve it, there was no other way but to appeal to many people.
But the world was not as smooth as we thought. It was an issue for a short time, but that was it.
“Hmm······. I think you are right.”
“So, if I drag aggro in any way, the work between our company and Daeyang Heavy Industries will naturally continue to come and go.”
“Is that really going to happen?”
“If not, you have to make it happen. We have everything we need.”
“all? What do you need?”
“money.”
Eugene smiled and said.
“but. Money is everything Let’s see, you filthy bastards. Now hyung has money, too.”
Yoosung once again sharpened his teeth towards Daeyang Heavy Industries.
Yoosung’s hostility toward Daeyang Heavy Industries was far greater than that of Eugene.
Eugene was already living independently, but it would be natural for Yooseong to see and hear what was going on at her father’s company.
Upon learning of Eugene’s purpose, Yooseong quickly became more ambitious than his older brother.
He wasn’t convinced that things would go the way he intended.
But if you can repay any of their behavior, it’s worth a try.
“Are you taking pictures?”
On weekends, it was his simple hobby to hang the camera around his neck and take photos in the mountains or parks and post them to the community.
Perhaps he preferred wandering around unnamed wild grass to drinking with his friends.
It was a bit awkward to squat in front of a small flower with that huge body and point the camera at it, but isn’t it enough if you like him?
“Geez. But I’m not good at taking portraits…”
“Practice from now on.”
Not all social media photos are taken with a smartphone camera.
Celebrities often have exclusive photographers with expensive cameras, and take photos with the angle of view of the smartphone camera and upload them as if they were selfies.
Photo quality is more important than you think if you want to use social media successfully.
“What. Because I brought my camera.”
Yoosung tapped his bag and said.
“Anyway, I’ve been working with cameras for a long time, so it won’t be difficult, right?”
“Do some practice. Because flower photography and portrait photography are completely different fields. But if you have to, you have to.”
“okay. Practice.”
“Then shouldn’t we start right away?”
“First of all, there is no rush. There is no way to attract aggro until you win the prize anyway.”
“Then you haven’t even opened an SNS yet?”
“I made it. right after winning. And after posting a few pictures of the Santa Monica coast, I also uploaded pictures I took at the lottery office.”
Yoosung slightly admired it.
“Five! So many people must have seen that?”
“uh. I haven’t posted since that day, and I already have 5,000 followers.”
“awesome. After all, big money attracts people, but I see. okay. I will practice hard from now on.”
“Do that. Until you receive the winnings, just upload it briefly. To the extent that people are not interested at all.”
“Could it be once a week? Hyung’s visuals aren’t bad, so if I adapt to portraits, he’ll come out fine.”
“Why do you compliment this hyung for his looks?”
“That’s because you’re not just an older brother anymore, but a rich older brother. Cuckoo!”
Yoosung laughed as if it was funny.
“okay. rich right If you follow the rich hyung well in the future, I will make you a rich dongsaeng. really! In that sense, you have more work to do.”
If you just needed someone to take a picture of you, there was no need to call your brother to the United States.
“Just do anything.”
“What are you living for? Have you ever heard of cryptocurrency?”
This is much more important.
Because it was something I couldn’t trust until after we weren’t brothers who shared blood.
