Faced with the worsening epidemic, the government has adopted increasingly stringent control measures.
Initially, some people complained about the government's control, but as the epidemic worsened, the voices of opposition became fewer and fewer.
One of the reasons is that the news that a vaccine is about to be developed has brought hope to people.
-Commander Zheng, how is the progress of the vaccine clinical trials?
-It can be said that the clinical trials have achieved satisfactory results.
-So, it will be available on the market soon?
-We need everyone to wait patiently. To be on the safe side, we are evaluating whether to conduct a Phase III clinical trial. We plan to complete the evaluation by the end of next month. If we decide to start the Phase III clinical trial, the trial will be conducted in all major hospitals across the country, targeting more than 2,000 patients.
-Can you give an estimated launch date?
-We are sorry that we cannot give a specific timetable at this time.
The press conference is over.
This was followed by reports of the epidemic from countries around the world.
-Due to the continued economic downturn, some countries continue to maintain zero interest rates, while some countries are introducing a zero interest rate system. At the same time, central banks increase the supply of money to maintain market stability.
At this time, there was a knock on the door and Jin Junyu walked in.
"Chairman, I'm back."
As he spoke, Kim Jun-woo placed the laptop he had taken on the coffee table in front of Park Jin-hyuk.
"On my way back, I met President Xuan."
"Didn't he say anything?"
"He said he had something important to report to you, but he couldn't get in touch with you, so he was very anxious."
"You didn't say I was here?"
"No."
Park Jin Hyuk nodded, then turned his gaze to the computer.
Looking at the computer screen, Han Ji-yeon asked:
"What is this?"
Park Jin Hyuk smiled and replied:
"My weapon."
"arms?"
"Well, if we go to the battlefield to fight, we can't go unarmed."
"Who are you going to fight?"
"Who else could be giving me such a headache right now?"
"Your father?"
Park Jin Hyuk nodded.
Then, he turned to look at Jin Junyu, who pointed at the computer screen and said:
"Among the DS Energy board members, I recommend meeting this person first: DS Energy President Kim Dong-seok."
"What's the reason?"
"He was originally the president of Qingyu Energy. He has a distant relationship with the chairman and no backing within the DS Group. It's entirely possible to win him over."
"Well, I was planning to talk to him alone. What's next?"
"The second one is Executive Director Seo Hyung-soo from the Business Planning Department."
"Xu Hengzhu, is he also an old man from Qingyu?"
"Yes."
"He should have a good relationship with Kim Dong-seok, right?"
"Yes, they both graduated from Georgetown University in the United States. They are seniors and juniors. If we can win over Kim Dong-seok, then Seo Hyung-soo will be no problem."
"Um……"
"At the last board meeting, he didn't raise any objections to Kong Qiuxian and Moon Jungsu's proposal."
Park Jin Hyuk looked carefully at Seo Hyung Soo's resume.
This person obtained his Ph.D. from Georgetown University, then joined Qingyu Energy and has been working at Qingyu Energy ever since.
This shows that he still has a lot of feelings for this company.
Park Jin Hyuk said:
"I believe this person definitely does not want to see DS Energy go bankrupt."
"Yes, he once raised objections to the current company strategy at the board meeting and strongly opposed the continued borrowing of funds from outsiders."
"You're still quite responsible... How about this, I'll meet both of them at the same time."
"Yes, I'll arrange it right away."
"In this case, there are four..."
“We secured four out of ten directors.”
"How many people do we need in total?"
"No fewer than six people. If we want to be safe, seven is best."
"Seven..."
Park Jin Hyuk looked at the list of directors.
"Is this person the president's man?"
"He's the president's confidant."
"Then don't think about it."
In addition to the two arranged by Park Jin Hyuk, there are five external independent directors.
They include the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Knowledge Economy, the Director-General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, the president of an external company, and two professors.
Park Jin Hyuk remembered that the two professors had a special relationship with his father, and he asked:
"What are the backgrounds of these two professors?"
"This accounting professor has a very good relationship with Sanrong Accounting Firm..."
"The director of Sanrong Accounting Firm and the president have been friends for many years, right?
"Yes."
Samyoung Accounting Firm has been conducting accounting audits for DS Group since the time of Park Jin Hyuk's grandfather, the first chairman, so it is very difficult to find this person.
"Where is this female professor?"
"She also holds a position at the Korean Chemical Society and is a very renowned scholar in this field."
"What's her relationship with the president? ...Oh, now I remember. The Korean Chemical Society. The president is a member there, right?"
“Not only was he a member, he also served as president of the society.”
"Don't even think about this person anymore."
Han Ji-yeon, who had been listening nearby, said:
"This is Qingyu... the current board of directors of DS Energy, right?"
"Yes."
"I suddenly thought, if we can win these people over to oppose your father, it might not be easy. But if we persuade them from the perspective of the company's development, wouldn't it be possible?"
Park Jin Hyuk looked at Han Ji Yeon, thought for a moment, and said:
"Hmm...that's one way."
If it is not directed against the chairman personally, but is based on the overall interests of the company, then the directors have no reason to object. If they still oppose such a proposal, it will not be too late to take action at that time.
Park Jin Hyuk turned to Kim Jun Woo and said:
"Don't bother thinking about it anymore. As long as our four directors agree, someone will come over to our side."
"I see."
Seeing Jin Junyu leave the ward, Han Zhiyan said:
"How's it going? I came to the right place, didn't I?"
"Um."
"So from now on, please tell me in advance where you are going or what you have to do."
"this……?"
"That way I can accompany you and help you with your plans."
"……All right."
*** *** ***
After Park Jin Hyuk returned to Seoul, he informed the president of his faction and came to DS Communications for a meeting the next day.
DS Communications became bustling from the next morning.
As the presidents of other subsidiaries continued to arrive, the two employees were discussing in low voices.
"Look, President Hyun Yi-soo is here."
"He's the chairman's right-hand man. Before becoming the president of Construction, he was responsible for the organizational restructuring of the DS Group. He's an expert in this area..."
"Well, because of his contributions in assisting the chairman, he was promoted to president after the organizational restructuring of DS Construction was completed."
