The current affairs commentator continued:

-Ah, so that's how it is. It seems that everything we heard about Chairman Park Jin Hyuk before was exaggerated.

Yes, Chairman Park intentionally exaggerated his role for publicity purposes. Conversely, the achievements of Executive Director Park Sang-hyuk at West Air have been underestimated. West Air's continued success can be attributed to Executive Director Park Sang-hyuk. If I were to ask who is more capable, I'd vote for Executive Director Park Sang-hyuk.

-Did Chairman Park Joon-wan also convey this sentiment in his speech at the DS Group's groundbreaking ceremony earlier this year?

Your understanding is absolutely correct. Otherwise, why did he appoint someone else as vice chairman, and why didn't he assign such an important project to Chairman Park Jin Hyuk? This shows that Chairman Park Jun Wan is well aware of the brothers' situation.

Park Jin Hyuk looked tired just now, but now he looks energetic.

“Who is creating these public opinions?”

Jin Junyu muttered to himself that he thought of someone but couldn't say it out loud.

"It's definitely not Director Wu. She doesn't dare to go against me like this now. If she pissed me off, I would sell all my 20 billion (about 106 million RMB) worth of West Airlines shares."

Only then did Kim Jun-woo realize that Park Jin-hyuk already held shares in WEST.

"So that's how it is... If you sell your shares, it could trigger a chain reaction."

Park Jin Hyuk nodded.

"Given West Airlines' current situation, if its major shareholders sell off their shares, it will likely close down."

Then he continued:

“It’s good that someone is spreading this kind of talk.”

Kim Jun-woo cast a puzzled look at his boss, and Park Jin-hyuk leaned his head against the headrest.

"I was going to spread this kind of talk myself, but now someone else has done it for me. Isn't that a good thing? Some people can't wait any longer."

"Who would do this? Is it Qingyu?"

Jin Junyu had already heard about what happened during the Qingyu family dinner.

"Someone in the Qingyu family might want to suppress me, but they won't do anything to elevate Xianghe. This kind of thing can only happen there."

"You mean the Daming Group?"

"Yes, it's the Daming Group. They've been secretly observing the situation and noticed that the president no longer has a favorable view of me. They felt the time had come, so they took action."

"Based on its strength..."

Jin Junyu continued to talk, but he stopped halfway through his words.

After all, Daming Group is about to become a relative of DS, so it would not be good for him to say too much.

Park Jin Hyuk continued with a smile:

"You're right, just based on its strength...hahaha."

The opponent hiding in the dark finally showed up, and Park Jin Hyuk couldn't help but laugh.

The next day, Guo Xiji hurried to DS Telecom to report to Park Jin Hyuk about his trip to the United States.

"The Lucas acquisition project is progressing smoothly. I have conveyed your wishes to the management team. I have also appointed two new directors to represent us."

"You can handle these specific operations as you see fit."

"Okay, I will fully implement your ideas."

Park Jin Hyuk said with a smile:

"Why don't you take a day off? You didn't even spend the New Year at home. Your wife and kids must be upset, right?"

In his previous life, Park Jin Hyuk treated the company as his home.

At that time, he thought that only when the company developed well could he have a future. Therefore, as long as the company needed him, he could work overtime on weekends and even holidays.

When the company encountered difficulties, he would rather reduce his salary than leave and continued to work hard.

The result of working so hard was that he was kicked out.

Those who care most about the company and share the difficulties are considered the easiest to bully and are the first to be kicked out.

So he changed his mind completely.

His current concept is that work and life should not be confused, and a good balance should be achieved between the two, with the individual coming first and the company second.

Even after becoming a business owner, he still did not change his mindset. He believed in "do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you."

Therefore, he usually does not assign work to his subordinates after get off work or on weekends.

"Chairman, no, I felt that there was something I should let you know as soon as possible, so I came right away."

After hearing what Guo Xiji said, Park Zhenhe straightened up.

"After dealing with Lucas's situation, I went to Rising Sun System Integration and met with its CTO and CEO, Mr. Frank Miller. Rising Sun System Integration had very good performance last year. The number of individual members exceeded 5.5 million, 5.5 times the plan at the beginning of the year, and the number of corporate members also reached 3 times the plan at the beginning of the year."

“That’s a good trend.”

"The company's products and services have received unanimous praise from users, and they plan to challenge the goal of 10 million individual members in the first quarter of this year."

"Increase it by 100% again?"

"Yes, DS Telecom's data center is now operational. Building on this foundation, achieving this goal is entirely possible. Among the many startups in Silicon Valley, its growth rate is arguably the fastest. Also, Lucas...

Perhaps he spoke too quickly, Guo Xiji stopped and took a sip of water.

"Take your time, there's no rush... Director Jin, go and let them get started."

"yes."

After agreeing, Jin Junyu walked out of the office.

Park Jin Hyuk turned and looked at Kwak Seok Ki.

"You haven't recovered from the time difference yet, have you?"

"That's okay... Lucas is a company specializing in big data analysis. They've proposed using the data integrated with the Rising Sun system to conduct their business."

"That's a good idea. This way, we can integrate the Rising Sun system with the data we have and put it to use."

"Xinri System Integration also agreed to Lucas's proposal. They belong to the same parent company and can discuss the cooperation model and profit distribution method in a friendly manner."

"Anything else?"

Guo Xiji replied with a serious expression:

"Chairman, the main content I want to report to you is below. Lucas has long planned to adopt this business model, but has never been able to find a suitable partner. Either the data pool is too small, or the other party's conditions are unacceptable. Now, we have finally found a suitable partner."

“Isn’t that wonderful?”

"The problem is, because they've been involved with so many businesses, their business model has attracted a lot of attention in California."

This was something Park Jin Hyuk had not expected.

"Does this mean that the outside world has discovered the actual controllers behind these two companies?"

"Currently, the outside world only knows that the investor is JH Investment, and you haven't been implicated yet... But before I boarded the plane, someone found me at the airport. This is their business card."

As he spoke, Guo Xiji placed a few business cards on the coffee table.

These people are from the same company.
