The Youngest Son of Sunyang

Chapter 57 Win-Win 4

"Is this money that Chairman Jin has given away? To that young man?"

It is a well-known fact that Chairman Jin plans to give stocks or cash to his grandchildren when they become adults, something even ordinary people are aware of.

Some criticize him for controlling even their bloodlines with money, while others praise his wisdom, saying that he stops giving if they don't show any ability.

So, when it was revealed that Chairman Jin had already given away several hundred billion won, everyone was astonished.

"Gift-giving is fine, but this is different. Ten years ago, he gave a ranch as a gift to Jin Do-Jun. But as luck would have it, the location of this ranch turned out to be the current Bundang New Town."

"Ah..."

"He were lucky. A piece of land worth tens of millions of won turned into hundreds of billions."

Ironically, this made them feel relieved. Chairman Jin was so generous that a gift of a few tens of millions for his grandson did not seem like a special display of affection.

"The money was entrusted to Miracle Investment. The CEO of this investment firm, Oh Se-hyun, is a close friend of Jin Do-Jun's father."

"Is there anything else? So far, it seems like he's just a lucky kid."

"The unusual part is that he's the only grandchild who frequents the study. During vacations, he even stays at Chairman Jin's house. It means he receives special affection."

"Special affection..."

"Yes. I think there are two reasons for it. First, Chairman Jin treated his son, Jin Yoon-gi, like an outcast for a long time, and he may feel guilty, so he's focusing on his grandson, Jin Do-Jun. Second, he's an incredibly lucky child. Chairman Jin has occasionally said in interviews that those who hold the fortune in their hands can't be defeated."

"Isn't it common for grandparents to favor their youngest grandchildren?"

When Chairman Hong tried to downplay the significance, Hong Seo-young vigorously shook her head.

"No, Father."

"Why?"

"I heard that the study is a place even Mr. Yeong-jun can't enter freely. It's not an ordinary study. It's the control tower of the Sunyang Group. Other grandchildren just meet in the living room. But dominating the study? That's like saying he's dominating the Sunyang Group Chairman's office."

"Yes. It's virtually impossible for Jin Yeong-gi, the Vice Chairman, as well. He's always seen with Secretary Lee Hak-jae. So far, it's known that Secretary Lee Hak-jae is the only one who can meet Chairman Jin at any time."

No one said a word.

At the very least, it's hard to deny that Chairman Jin's affection for Jin Do-Jun is exceptional.

The first person to break the silence was Chairman Hong Seo-young's father.

"What about this Jin Do-Jun, when it comes to women or nightlife? He's at that age to enjoy himself to the fullest..."

"Opportunities for trouble haven't arisen yet. Now that he's an adult, if he indulges in alcohol and women like the young ones in chaebol families usually do, Chairman Jin's affection will wane."

"He's still a model student for now. In fact, I don't think it's easy for him to get involved in nightlife. He doesn't have friends who could lead him in that direction. While the third-generation kids naturally meet at a private school, Jin Do-Jun has no friends because he only focuses on studying."

"I don't think he'll get carried away with such things." Chairman Hong, who had been silent, spoke uncomfortably as he raised his body. "Claiming that he's hanging around Yeouido investment firms may make him sound young, but he understands the joy of making money more than anything else. There's nothing more enjoyable than making money. He might enjoy the nightlife moderately, but he won't get deeply involved."

Chairman Hong surveyed the meeting room and took a few steps.

"It's unusual, but don't worry too much. Chairman Jin doesn't have the luxury to think about his grandson considering his age. Focus on Jin Dong-gi, the second son, and Jin Seo-yoon, the daughter. These two are like wolves. When the tiger dies, they'll show their fangs."

Chairman Hong addressed the man who had just briefed them.

"Just in case, keep an eye on that kid, Jin Do-Jun. He might use Chairman Jin's insider information to play the stock market."

"Yes, Chairman."

"And Seo-young."

"Yes, Grandfather."

"Sneak a little check on the guy who will be your husband. Find out what position this guy named Jin Do-Jun holds within the family."

"Got it."

As Hong Seo-young nodded her head, Chairman Hong looked at everyone and said,

"This kind of opportunity won't come again. Don't slack off until everything Chairman Jin has is in Jin Yeong-jun's hands."

They passed through Jaryuro and arrived at the Unification Observatory. They entered the lounge with Kim Yoon-seok, examined the tailing car, and had coffee.

"How is it? Did you follow us?"

"Yes. As expected, they didn't get out of the car."

"Are you sure it's tailing?"

"I saw that car at Chairman's house. I'm sure."

If they are monitoring people to the extent of tailing them, the most likely candidate is the eldest grandson. Is he starting to make a move to take control of the group?

"By any chance, did the people from the eldest grandson's household, like Yeong-jun or Gyeong-jun, has tails on them too?"

"I don't know about that. Should I check?"

"Yes, please do."

If it turns out that they are also doing something like this, I need to prepare for something I haven't thought about yet. Finding someone who can handle dirty work like that.

Can Kim Yoon-seok, right in front of me, become that person?

Kim, the assistant, noticed that I was hesitating and cautiously spoke up.

"Um, Sir."

"Sir? What...?"

"Then, what should I call you?"

Darn it, there's no suitable title. Just calling him Mr. Do-Jun would sound a bit odd, and addressing him as Do-Jun-ah might be too informal, leading to an uncomfortable situation.

Using informal language should be avoided. Language is the most definite rule that defines hierarchy.

"Let's go with 'Sir' for now."

"Yes, Sir. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to ask. My job so far has been going to Yeouido, and I'm afraid I'll get cut off at this rate."

There's no way he would get cut off. The other members of the strategy team are on standby 24/7, handling all sorts of dirty work, including running errands for cigarettes.
