Xuan Yizhu said to Park Jin Hyuk:
"Is that really necessary?"
"I remember what the captured American general, Stockdale, said during the Vietnam War: 'Lower your expectations and prepare for the worst, and that's how you'll get a long-term outcome.' I've come to the conclusion that goals can be set optimistically, but plans must be prepared for the worst. Being overly optimistic about reality can lead to false expectations."
This was the first time Xuan Yizhu heard him say such words.
Park Jin Hyuk continued:
"Now, the worst-case scenario is that the president doesn't intend to pass his position to me and will do everything he can to suppress me. Although I'm his son, he doesn't care about the father-son relationship. Besides, I'm not his only son. Everyone likes obedient people. You've raised children before, so you should understand this better than I do."
After hearing this, Xuan Yizhu was speechless.
He stared at Park Jin Hyuk quietly, feeling increasingly confused about this man.
First it was the stepmother, then the uncles, and now he is preparing for a contest with his own father.
Faced with numerous difficulties, Park Jin Hyuk was not discouraged or depressed. Instead, he became more energetic and braver as the battle went on.
"The president has become wary of me, so I plan to further strengthen my relationship with Dongjing Industry to prevent any potential changes. Moreover, Dongjing Industry has its legitimate reasons for intervening in DS Group's affairs."
"A reasonable title?"
"Grandpa is worried about his grandson, so he intervened in the DS Group's succession issue. Isn't that a good reason?"
"But, will the president be willing?"
"Of course he doesn't want to, but as long as Dongjing Industry strikes the right balance, the president won't be able to say anything."
"What specific method do you plan to use?"
"Increase the shares of DS Group through Dongjing Industry."
Xuan Yizhu fell silent.
He used to think that Park Jun-wan would eventually agree to transfer his DS shares to Park Jin-hyuk, and all Park Jin-hyuk needed to do was prepare the money to pay the inheritance tax.
However, Park Jin Hyuk had anticipated that the issue of chairman succession would not be that simple.
Therefore, he planned to increase his stake in DS through Dongjing Industry and take the initiative into his own hands.
"President Xuan, I'd like to ask you to help me find a way to acquire shares in DS Group through Dongjing Industry. Right now, I only have a general idea, and the specific operation will depend on you."
Xuan Yizhu thought for a moment and said:
"Now you have $800 million in cash. You can use this money to set up an investment company."
"Set up an investment company?"
"Compared to individual investment, acquiring equity through an investment company is much more covert and easier to operate."
"Well, that's a good idea. Let's set up an investment company to do it."
Xuan Yizhu continued:
"You can also invest in the Laem Chabang project being carried out by Dongjing Industry through this investment company and help it solve the problems it faces."
In this way, after Park Jin Hyuk determined the general direction, Hyun Yi Soo began the specific operations.

DS Pharmaceuticals' acquisition of North Pharmaceuticals is in full swing, and discordant voices have begun to be heard in the market, especially regarding Park Jin Hyuk's transfer of 30% of the equity to DS Pharmaceuticals.
Some people pointed out that this was a deliberate sacrifice made by DS Pharmaceuticals in order to cash out Park Jin Hyuk's equity.
On this day, this topic was being hotly discussed on the TV station's economic program.
The experts who appeared on the show were hired by Kim Jun-woo according to Park Jin-hyuk's instructions, so naturally they said what the company arranged.
Kim Jun-woo said to Park Jin-hyuk anxiously:
"We arranged for experts to discuss this topic publicly, so that everyone in the world knew about it."
"Don't worry. DS Pharmaceuticals and I agreed to arrange this program. I have my reasons."
Park Jin Hyuk was watching the experts' discussion on a TV program with great interest.
-Recently, various news in the market seem to be related to Executive Director Park Jin Hyuk.
-Yes, he is the eldest son of Park Jun-wan, chairman of DS Group. Not long ago, he presided over the negotiations with Novo Nordisk Pharmaceuticals and reached an agreement to carry out large-scale production of Bidaphil in the country.
-Not only that, he also presided over the organizational adjustment of DS Construction and successfully pulled DS Pharmaceuticals out of trouble.
-Then he disappeared for a while, and this time it was discovered that he was the largest shareholder of North Pharmaceuticals?
-It is reported that he initially invested 50 billion won (about 260 million RMB).
-50 billion is a considerable sum, wait...this time, DS Pharmaceuticals acquired North's equity with a total investment of 1.2 trillion won (about 6.3 billion RMB). As the largest shareholder, wouldn't 50 billion be worth hundreds of billions?
-It is reported that he sold his 30% stake for 800 billion won (about 4.2 billion RMB).
Seeing this, Kim Jun-woo turned to look at Park Jin-hyuk's reaction.
Park Jin Hyuk was smiling and seemed very satisfied with the expert's performance.
"Manager Park, is it necessary to share such detailed information with the public?"
"Don't worry, that's exactly what I wanted."
