The Underground Emperor: Starting with Running Away with His Sister-in-Law

They opened several large chain stores under the Sunflower brand throughout Gyeongsang Province, and they were doing incredibly well!

He has also been awarded the title of Outstanding Entrepreneur in the local area for two consecutive years.

It is said that the next president of the Gyeongsang Province Chamber of Commerce has already been decided!

certainly...

Ding Xin had considered merging those industries into the Kinmen Group.

Then, he used this opportunity to nominate his sister-in-law, Han Huizi, as the president of Kinmen Department Store.

But after thinking about it for a while, I gave up.

Again...

No need!

Therefore, taking all factors into consideration...

Ding Xin was more looking forward to how much compensation he could get from Zhang Shouji!

...

Next up is Ding Qing...

He did intend to promote Lee Ja-sung and help him secure the position of president of Kinmen Entertainment Company...

But the conditions don't seem to allow it!

on the one hand...

It was because he could tell from Shi Dong's behavior that the chairman must have already made a comprehensive plan!

in other words...

Shi Dongchu probably already has a suitable candidate in mind.

At this point, no matter which candidate the others suggested, they would most likely be rejected by Seok Dong-chul using various excuses.

on the other hand...

It's also because of Lee Ja-sung's awkward situation!

after all...

Lee Ja-sung's current position is the vice president of Kinmen Entertainment Company and Kinmen Department Store!

The current situation is...

Zhang Shouji, the de facto head of both subsidiaries, was impeached and removed from office due to various issues related to company operations...

But Li Zicheng, the vice president, was completely unaffected!

That's lucky enough!

Although in Ding Qing's opinion...

His good friend Li Zicheng hadn't done anything wrong either!

But let's set aside the facts...

Does Lee Ja-sung, the vice president of this subsidiary and nominally the second-in-command, really bear no responsibility at all?

If outsiders want to make a fuss about it...

There would be no shortage of reasons to criticize Li Zicheng!

Putting everything else aside...

Given the various losses that Kinmen Entertainment has suffered in recent months, is it possible that Lee Ja-sung, the company's second-in-command, has not noticed anything at all?

He said he noticed...

If we don't stop it, does that mean we're complicit?

You said you didn't notice...

That means the supervision is inadequate, or is it a lack of capacity?

Ding Qing knew very well...

If these issues are used as a pretext, Lee Ja-sung will likely find himself in trouble immediately!

This will cause some unnecessary turmoil!

so...

After careful consideration...

He also chose to remain silent and observe for the time being, adapting to the situation as it unfolds!

...

at last...

Only Lee Jung-gu, Lee Ja-sung, Jang Soo-ki, and Choi Buk-jin remain as eligible nominees.

Lee Jung-gu goes without saying...

It was foreseeable that Chairman Shi Dongchu must have told him something before the meeting.

So at this moment, he...

He simply leaned back in his chair, a lazy smile on his face, silently watching everyone present.

Lee Ja-sung has always been a man of few words...

Since even Ding Qing remained silent in this situation, he naturally chose to observe coldly as well.

But deep in his eyes...

Yet, each time a faint, indescribable luster flashed across it.

As for Zhang Shouji...

At this moment, his face was extremely cold, and his heart was filled with complex emotions!

There was resentment, unwillingness, and helplessness!

certainly...

He was well aware of his own limitations, even though he had just been dismissed from his post.

He knew that even if he wanted to recommend someone to succeed him, he would most likely not get the consent of everyone present.

Besides...

The only qualified person he could recommend was his trusted confidant, Choi Buk-jin.

But Cui Beizhen had just betrayed him!

so...

No matter how you look at it...

Zhang Shouji is neither willing nor able to bring it up!

Finally, there's Choi Bei-jin...

He, who was always invisible, remained silent with his head down.

Staring blankly at the desktop...

Nobody knows what he's thinking...

......

Chapter 523 Shi Dongchu's Recommendation

Shi Dongchu smiled faintly as he looked at the silent crowd.

There was no rush to urge them on.

He just smiled, stubbed out his cigarette, took off his glasses, casually pulled out a tissue, and slowly began to wipe the lenses.

It was as if everyone was being given ample time to consider.

Time passes by minute by minute...

Only after he had wiped the lenses spotless and put them back on did he calmly say, "It seems no one has any suitable candidates to recommend..."

How about this, I'll offer a few suggestions to get the ball rolling, and everyone can consider them and see if they're suitable.

As they were talking...

He took out another cigarette, lit it, and took a deep drag.

Then he glanced at Ding Qing, then turned to Li Zicheng: "For the past two years, while serving as the vice president of Kinmen Entertainment Company and Kinmen Department Store..."

He was very diligent...

Especially when running Kinmen Department Store...

I believe everyone has witnessed Lee Ja-sung's dedication...

so...
