Xuan Yizhu said: "Vice President, some members of the National Assembly specifically use the national political supervision to humiliate those who are questioned. I suggest you consider it carefully."
"It's okay, I can handle it myself."
Knowing that he couldn't convince Park Jin Hyuk, Hyun Yi Soo had to give up.
After Hyun Yi-soo left, Park Jin-hyuk set off for Yeouido to meet someone.
After getting in the car, Park Jin Hyuk closed his eyes and rested for a while, then asked Kim Jun Woo: "How is the investigation into the DS Electronics incident going?"
"The investigation is almost complete. The actual situation is different from the report submitted by DS Electronics. The employee who committed suicide had a harmonious family and had been married for only three months. He worked very hard and had good relationships with his colleagues. He was just a bit stubborn. There was no reason for it."
"Is it related to that executive?"
"Yes, he had a very bad relationship with that executive."
"How bad is it?"
"It is said that before the suicide, he was called in by the executive every day and lectured for more than 30 minutes... However, this is feedback from people close to the employee, and the authenticity needs further verification."
"Hmm..." Park Jin Hyuk's face darkened.
Park Jin Hyuk could understand the employee's feelings as he had encountered a similar situation in his previous life.
In the past, it was common for superiors to make things difficult for and insult their subordinates in the workplace. In recent years, South Korea has enacted the "Anti-Workplace Bullying Act," which explicitly prohibits workplace bullying. Arranging work after get off work, forcing people to drink at dinner parties, and other behaviors are all illegal.
However, changing habits takes time.
Park Jin Hyuk cursed, "This bastard! He cursed behind closed doors and thought no one knew."
Jin Junyu was secretly surprised. He didn't expect his boss's reaction to be so intense.
“What kind of person is that executive?”
“Both the ability and the performance are good.”
"What about personality?"
"There are different opinions. Some say he has a good personality, while others say he has a bad one."
"...See, I have to see it in person."
The car arrived at the underground parking lot of a building in Yeouido, Seoul. After Park Jin Hyuk got out of the car, he took the elevator to a Korean restaurant on the third floor.
Maybe because it was past noon, the area around the restaurant was very quiet.
A waiter was already waiting at the door. After confirming Park Jin Hyuk's identity, he took Park Jin Hyuk to the door of a private room.
The waiter opened the sliding door and said, "The guests have arrived."
"Please come in!" A welcoming voice immediately came from inside.
Park Jin Hyuk walked in and said, "Hello, am I not late?"
"No, no, I'm here early." As he said that, the other party stepped forward and shook Park Jin Hyuk's hand.
"I've always wanted to meet you, and today I finally get to see you," said Park Jin Hyuk.
"Me too." the other person replied.
This is a fat man with a ruddy face and full of energy. He doesn't look like a man in his 60s at all.
After sitting down, Shin Sang-hoon, the leader of the opposition party and presidential candidate, said, "I wonder why you asked me to meet you? I heard that you have a good relationship with General Jung Kye-young."
"No, he and I have only met a few times on official business."
Shin Sang-hoon laughed and said, "Without your help, Zheng Qiying would not be where she is today. I am right, am I not?"
Park Jin Hyuk smiled slightly and did not answer.
Perhaps sensing the awkwardness of the atmosphere, Shin Sang-hoon poured Park Jin-hyuk some wine and asked, "Do you like golf?"
"Golf?"
"Yeah, do you like playing golf? ... Or fishing? We can play golf or fish in the future so we can see each other more often."
"This question really stumps me. I'm usually too busy with work and basically have no time to organize these activities." As he said this, Park Jin Hyuk also poured wine for the other party.
The two men raised their glasses and drank the wine.
Then, Shin Sang-hoon said in a loud voice: "Tell me, why did you come to see me?"
"I guess you've heard that in three days, I will be subject to national supervision as a witness."
"Yeah." Shin Sang-hoon nodded. He had heard about it, but then he said, "That was initiated by the Health and Welfare Committee. How can I help?"
Park Jin Hyuk lowered his head and picked up some food without saying a word.
"...Why are you still staying in the country at a time like this? You should go abroad to avoid the limelight."
"I just came back from abroad, and there's no reason for me to go abroad again." Park Jin Hyuk's reason seemed unconvincing.
"I saw you ring the bell at the New York Stock Exchange. I bet your company must have made a lot of money with this IPO. Will you be the richest man in South Korea in a couple of days?"
Park Jin Hyuk just smiled and didn't answer.
Seeing that Park Jin Hyuk remained silent, Shin Sang-hoon spoke directly, "I know you want my help. I can talk to the congressman who specifically requested that you accept supervision and ask him to cancel his questioning of you... How do you plan to repay me?"
"repay?"
"Yes, I heard that you gave a lot of money to the ruling party, about 200-300 billion, through investment in DS Energy shares."
"That's the money they made from their investment. What does it have to do with me?"
"Vice President Park, please tell the truth in front of me." As he said that, he poured another glass of wine for Park Jin Hyuk.
"I've been involved in politics for over 20 years, and this is the first time I've heard of such a large amount of funding being provided at once."
Park Jin Hyuk slowly picked up the wine glass, drank it all and said, "Yes, that's the case."
"You admit it?"
“I provided them with the information.”
This time, the ruling party mortgaged its party office building and raised a total of 100 billion yuan, all of which was used to buy DS Energy shares.
When he first heard about it, Shin Sang-hoon wondered if these people were crazy, but he didn't expect that this investment would successfully make 400 billion yuan.
He suspected that someone had leaked the inside information to Zheng Qiying and his gang, and that person should be Park Jin Hyuk, and now he actually admitted it readily.
Shin Sang-hoon said, "You have caused great trouble for us in the opposition party. Since you have given such great support to the other party, shouldn't you also give us the same support?"
Park Jin Hyuk poured Shin Sang Hoon another glass of wine and said, "Your premise doesn't seem to hold water."
"What's the meaning?"
"I plan to answer questions from the National Government Inspection."
"This...?" Shin Sang-hoon stopped holding the wine glass.
"Drink the wine first, and then I will explain to you." Park Jin Hyuk advised.
Shin Sang-hoon drank the wine in one gulp, and Park Jin-hyuk said, "Not only do I want to participate, but I also hope that you can criticize me fiercely on the spot."
"Attack you fiercely?" Shin Sang-hoon asked back.
"Yes, I came to see you today just to ask you for this favor."
"What are you thinking?" Shin Sang-hoon was a little confused.
