Kim Jun-woo was about to turn around and leave when Park Jin-hyuk stopped him.

"Regarding the three directors I want to meet who have served as government officials, please conduct a thorough investigation into their backgrounds."

"How detailed is it?"

"See if they have any evidence?"

"handle?"

"These people who have served as government officials are likely to disobey orders..."

He flipped through the materials of these people and continued:

"But if you can grasp their weaknesses, you won't have to worry about them disobeying you."

"knew."

Soon, DS headquarters issued an official announcement that its subsidiary DS Communications will hold a board meeting to decide on the chairman of the board.

That day, in Park Jin Hyuk's office, Jin Junyu reported to him:

"XXX, the former chief of economic policy, expressed his support for you to become chairman."

"Yeah, okay."

Park Jin Hyuk smiled with satisfaction.

An independent director who previously served as vice minister of science and technology initially expressed his disapproval of Park Jin-hyuk becoming chairman, believing him to be too young and inexperienced.

However, because Park Jin Hyuk understood the problems, he had to compromise in the end.

In Park Jin Hyuk's view, as long as the goal is reasonable, sometimes extraordinary measures can be adopted.

Under such circumstances, two directors within DS Communication requested to meet with Park Jin Hyuk several times.

Park Jin Hyuk met with them the day before the board meeting...

*** *** ***

The day of DS Communications’ board meeting arrived.

The meeting went very smoothly.

First, a director nominated Park Jin Hyuk as chairman, and then all directors voted by show of hands and unanimously approved the proposal.

After Park Jin Hyuk made a brief statement, the board meeting ended successfully.

Now we just have to wait for the approval of the extraordinary shareholders' meeting before Park Jin Hyuk can take office.

Park Junwan sent Secretary Huang to represent him at the board meeting.

After the meeting, Secretary Huang accompanied Park Jin Hyuk out of the venue.

Secretary Huang smiled and said:

"I originally thought there would be some opposition, and I was ready to speak in support of you, but I didn't expect it to go so smoothly."

"Thank you. I appreciate your kindness."

In fact, this is just Secretary Huang’s own opinion and does not represent the president’s thoughts.

They came to the waiting car together, and Park Jin Hyuk asked with a smile:

"It's almost the end of the year. Are there any major changes to the executive personnel plan this year? Also, when does the president plan to go abroad?"

"Not much has changed. Your appointment to DS Telecom is pretty much a done deal. Everything else is just internal adjustments. No one is joining from outside this year."

"The group is developing well, so there is no need to bring in talent from outside."

“Thanks for your contribution.”

Park Jin Hyuk smiled and said nothing.

"DS Heavy Industries and Chemicals, especially Chemicals, have been in a tough spot this year. Fortunately, DS Pharmaceuticals' earnings have increased significantly, making up for the shortfall."

Secretary Hwang then revealed the information that Park Jin Hyuk was concerned about.

"…The chairman will likely be leaving the country in a month, after DS Communications' shareholders' meeting and the finalization of this year's executive personnel plan."

"I see. Thank you. See you next time."

After saying that, Park Jin Hyuk turned around and was about to get in the car when Secretary Huang called him.

"Master, please wait a moment."

Park Jin Hyuk looked at Secretary Hwang.

"What's the matter?"

"Master, there's something I want to tell you again... It's best if you don't go against the president."

"How should I understand this?"

Park Jin Hyuk put away his smile.

"Don't take the president's actions too seriously. He actually cares about you. You need to seriously consider some of his suggestions."

"Don't take it personally?"

"Young Master, you're a little too impatient. From construction to pharmaceuticals, and then to communications, the journey seems to be smooth sailing, but in the president's opinion, you're still too impatient, and this only makes him feel uneasy."

Park Jin Hyuk glanced at Secretary Huang and lowered his head.

"You may feel that your advancement is too slow, but only by moving up step by step can you continuously build trust. I've heard that some external independent directors strongly oppose your appointment as chairman of DS Telecom."

“Yes, there is this problem.”

"I don't care what specific methods you used to eliminate these objections, but that method can't be used again. This time, only one or two people objected, but if you don't handle it properly, dozens or even hundreds of people will oppose it in the future. By then, the problem will be huge, and it will also make thousands of DS Group shareholders uneasy. So, slow down appropriately and move forward step by step. This is the long-term solution."

Secretary Huang's tone was very sincere, and Park Jin Hyuk nodded thoughtfully.

Secretary Huang put his hand on his shoulder.

"You will definitely be the next owner of DS Group, so there's no need to be too anxious."

Park Jin Hyuk raised his head and looked at Secretary Huang.

"Thank you for your advice. I will reflect on it seriously."

"Your abilities have been recognized by everyone, so from now on, you can slow down a bit."

"...I will seriously consider your work."

Seeing that he had listened to his advice, Secretary Huang looked at Park Jin Hyuk with satisfaction and shook his hand.

Park Jin Hyuk looked at Secretary Huang with gratitude, bowed his head rarely, and got into the car.
