After experiencing a tragic car accident, Liu Zhengjie, whose ancestors were from China and who was now an ordinary Korean worker, woke up to find himself the eldest son of the powerful Korean chae...

Chapter 365: Lawless Strategic Operations Room

Park Jin Hyuk and Kim Jun Woo arrived at the company while chatting like this.

When Park Jin Hyuk walked out of the elevator, he saw someone waiting for him at the office door.

"Brother, good morning." Park Sang Hyuk called out.

"It's not appropriate to call you brother in the company, right?" Park Jin Hyuk smiled and patted Sang Hyuk's shoulder.

After entering the office and sitting down on the sofa, Park Jin Hyuk asked, "What's the matter with you coming to see me so early in the morning?"

"Can't I come to see you if nothing happens?" Park Sang-hyuk said with a smile.

"I have a meeting soon. I don't have time to chat with you. Tell me, what's going on?"

"I have something to ask of you..." Park Sang-hyuk finally told the truth, "I heard you want to acquire PJ Logistics?"

"Who told you that?" He didn't expect that the news had already reached his ears.

"I heard Do Sun-ho say it while I was drinking with him, and it's spread now."

"I figured he couldn't hide anything, and sure enough, it turned out to be true."

"I didn't quite believe it, but it seems to be true. He said that you and Qingyu are both interested in acquiring PJ Logistics."

Spreading this news through Do Sun-ho is exactly what Park Jin-hyuk wants.

"What do you want to ask of me?"

"After you acquire PJ Logistics, can you let me manage it?"

"Hmm? Are you interested in PJ Logistics?"

Based on Park Jin Hyuk's understanding of his brother, even if he offered it to him, he might refuse because it was too much work, but now he took the initiative to ask for it.

"I originally just wanted to run WEST Air well..." Park Sang-hyuk confessed.

"Did your sister-in-law ask you to come?"

"Well, my wife kept encouraging me, saying that PJ Logistics has a bright future and asked me to come talk to you about it."

Park Jin Hyuk crossed his arms over his chest and lowered his head to think.

"Brother, is it not possible?"

"What do you think? Are you willing to do it?"

"I'm fine with anything. If it's given to me, I'll do it. If not, I don't care. WEST Airlines has enough going on right now."

Since taking charge of the transportation of vaccines, WEST Airlines' operating conditions have improved significantly. According to this development trend, it is estimated that it will turn losses into profits in the first half of next year.

Of course, as the business volume increased, Park Sang-hyuk became busier and busier.

"Well, WEST Airlines will keep you busy enough."

"My wife's family, Daming, has said that if DS is interested in acquiring PJ Logistics, they are willing to cooperate with DS in all aspects."

"They want to participate too? I heard that the situation in Daming isn't very good. Do they still have the energy?"

Park Jin Hyuk explained, "Da Ming Group's main business is fashion products, which uses logistics in many areas. They have always wanted to build their own logistics system..."

"They want to form a joint venture with DS?"

"It seems that Daming previously signed short-term contracts with logistics suppliers, and the prices were relatively high. If DS acquires PJ Logistics, they might consider signing a long-term contract with us, which would be a good thing for us..."

"What do you think about this matter?" Park Jin Hyuk asked.

"I think... if we can cooperate, it will be beneficial to both parties."

"After acquiring PJ Logistics, I'll hand it over to you to manage and cooperate with Daming. Is that what you mean?"

"This is just my suggestion. The final decision must be made by you."

Hearing the doubt in Park Jin Hyuk's tone, Sang Hyuk began to be vague.

"Go back and tell your sister-in-law that since you've married into DS, you belong to DS and can't turn your elbows outward."

Park Sang Hyuk nodded quickly, "Got it, I'll definitely tell her. I'm sorry for causing you trouble so early in the morning."

"It's okay. I know this isn't what you think. You're just conveying Daming's intentions."

After Park Sang-hyuk left, Park Jin-hyuk held an internal meeting.

At the meeting, he instructed Li Yongbin: "Please submit a research report on PJ Logistics as soon as possible."

"Director, can you tell me what the purpose is?"

"I plan to acquire PJ Logistics."

"Why are you suddenly acquiring PJ Logistics? Is there any special reason?"

Park Jin Hyuk frowned, "You're asking me to explain the reason, right?" There was dissatisfaction in his voice.

"Director, I don't mean anything else. Now that we know the reason, we can prepare a more targeted report."

Park Jin Hyuk stared at Lee Yong Bin.

Recently, someone reported problems with the Strategic Management Office to him. Because the Strategic Management Office has enormous power, everyone is worried that it will have an impact on the entire group.

Xuan Yizhu suggested to Park Jin Hyuk that he should restrain the Strategic Management Office and stop it in time and hold people accountable if he found any bad signs.

Therefore, Park Jin Hyuk has been paying close attention to Lee Yong Bin's every move these days.

"I just met with PJ Air's General Manager Do Sun-ho and discussed with him the acquisition of PJ Logistics." Park Jin-hyuk said to Lee Yong-bin.

"Was it Director Du who first proposed the merger?"

"No, I mentioned it first."

"Why didn't you consult us? Did you give us a price?"

Park Jin Hyuk forced a smile and said, "Not yet. He wants me to give him a price."

"Remember I reported to you last time about the PJ Group's situation? The acquisition of PJ Logistics requires careful consideration."

"Are you so pessimistic about this?"

Before answering, Li Yongbin glanced at several of his team leaders, who all expressed their support for him with their eyes.

Li Yongbin confidently stated, "PJ Group as a whole is declining, and so is PJ Logistics. Its logistics center is now outdated. The vehicles within its transportation system are mostly affiliated with other companies, with few of its own vehicles. Almost all of its operations are outsourced, and it lacks in-house capabilities. This isn't just my opinion."

"Really?" Park Jin Hyuk turned and looked at several team leaders, and they all nodded.

"Okay, I understand."

Li Yongbin thought Park Jin Hyuk accepted his opinion, but unexpectedly Park Jin Hyuk was very persistent:

"Even if we are not optimistic, we should study and understand what the problems are."

Li Yongbin had just read reports from several securities companies a few days ago, which believed that PJ Logistics had encountered major operational problems and had no money to pay employee salaries and interest.

Thinking of this, he said, "Director, there's no need to study it. Acquiring PJ Logistics will not bring any benefits to DS..."

Park Jin Hyuk interrupted him: "Don't be too confident. You seem to have forgotten who the final decision maker is. What you need to do is to complete the report as soon as possible and submit it to me. This is what you should do."

In an instant, the smile disappeared from Park Jin Hyuk's face.

Because he needed to manage the entire DS Group through the Strategic Management Office, he gave this department a lot of power and deliberately established the authority of the Strategic Management Office. As a result, Lee Yongbin formed the illusion that he could influence or even change Park Jin Hyuk's decision.

Park Jin Hyuk never said anything, hoping that they could correct themselves, but Lee Yong Bin became more and more arrogant and completely forgot his duties.

This is something Park Jin Hyuk absolutely cannot tolerate.
