During dinner, Han Ji-yeon asked Park Jin-hyuk:
"After the Dongjing Industry is acquired, will it operate independently within the DS system?"
"No, after being acquired by DS Construction, the Dongjing Industry sign had to be taken down."
"DS Construction is not as good as Dongjing Industry, but it merged with Dongjing Industry?"
"If you listen to the analysis on TV, you will know the reason," said Park Jin Hyuk.
This topic is being discussed on the economics section of TV.
"It seems that Dongjing Industry can no longer cope with the situation of being investigated, so it made this choice."
"Will we be able to escape punishment after being acquired by the DS Group? I'm afraid it will be difficult."
"Did you notice? The Procuratorate only said that Jiang Wenzhi's corruption was linked to some construction companies, but did not mention any specific companies."
After thinking about it, the host said, "It seems to be true."
"Yes, although public opinion is speculating that Dongjing Industry is the most likely suspect, the Procuratorate has never confirmed it. Therefore, the Dongjing Industry issue is likely to remain unresolved."
"Will this be the result?"
"Think about it, after the two companies merged, the Dongjing Industry brand was gone, and there was no one to punish. Of course, the punishment could be directed at the employees at the time, which would be much lighter."
Seeing this, Han Ji-yeon asked Park Jin-hyuk: "Is this really the merger to avoid punishment?"
"So concerned about this issue?"
"You're the person involved, and you're my husband, so of course you care."
"Thank you for your concern, but the person upstairs never cares about these things and only knows how to spend money." Park Jin Hyuk said while pointing to the second floor.
Han Ji-yeon knew who he was talking about.
"Ryan has been in a bad mood recently..."
When Park Jin Hyuk and Park Joon Man were in the final showdown, Park Seo Eun supported Park Jin Hyuk by entrusting her shares to a trust.
In return, Park Jin Hyuk agreed to let her live in his home and paid her daily living expenses. So Park Rui En spent money lavishly and spent tens of millions every time she went out.
"Don't change the subject... What is the reason for the merger of the two companies?" Han Ji-yeon asked again.
"The reason is actually very simple, it's just for the convenience of management."
"To make management easier, they've taken down their signboard. Isn't that too much?"
"...Are you worried that Qingyu will follow in the footsteps of Dongjing Industry?"
Han Ji-yeon turned her head away from looking at Park Jin-hyuk. It seemed that what Park Jin-hyuk said was right.
"Don't worry, Qingyu's situation is different from Dongjing Industry."
"Can I believe what you say?" Han Ji-yeon turned her head back.
"We are husband and wife, don't you still believe me?"
"...But I'm still a little worried."
"Don't worry."
After hearing what Park Jin Hyuk said, Han Ji Yeon felt more at ease.

On this day, the team responsible for the merger of Dongjing Industry and DS Construction was reporting to Park Jin Hyuk.
"At the close of today's stock market, DS Construction and Dongjing Industry ceased trading, and the merger of the two companies was publicly announced."
“When is the merger expected to be completed?”
“The documentation doesn’t take too long to prepare, and within three months the merged business can be listed again.”
"Then please proceed according to plan."
Everyone present nodded in response.
Park Jin Hyuk continued, "Has DS Construction's ranking changed after the merger?"
"Some time ago, Dongjing Industry fell from fifth to around tenth place. After the merger is completed, the new company has the hope of returning to the top five."
"Although DS Construction formally merged with Dongjing Industry, in actual business, Dongjing Industry is clearly stronger than DS Construction. Therefore, future business development will still focus on Dongjing Industry."
"Yes, I understand."
After Park Jin Hyuk finished speaking, he looked at the team leaders of the Strategic Management Office sitting next to him. After what happened last time, they became silent.
Park Jin Hyuk said to them:
"I need your help in completing a task. Find a suitable plot of land for the construction of a logistics center from among the land held by Dongjing Industry. The first factor to consider should be convenient transportation. Please prepare a report for me as soon as possible."
After a pause, Park Jin Hyuk continued, "Also, we will separate Dongjing Transportation from Dongjing Industry as the basis for expanding our logistics business."
Li Yongbin thought that Dongjing Tongyun’s business was mainly the transportation of construction materials, which had too many limitations... However, he did not express his thoughts out loud.
"How's the work I assigned to you last time going?"
The head of the management team first said:
"PJ Logistics' business analysis report is almost finished and will be submitted to you tomorrow."
"Very good. Based on this analysis, we can come up with a relatively reasonable acquisition price. What is the current acquisition price envisioned by the planning team?"
The planning team leader hesitated and did not answer immediately.
Park Jin Hyuk said, "It's okay. I know the analysis isn't complete yet. You can give me a rough estimate so I can have an idea."
The planning team leader finally mustered up the courage to say, "Although PJ Logistics' market capitalization has reached 200 billion, after analysis, we believe... PJ Logistics is only worth 1 won."
After saying that, he looked at Park Jin Hyuk's reaction.
