Chapter 213: New Secretary
Sending an apartment?
Regarding Xu Minzhen's proposal, Guo Dahai said with a smile: "Minzhenxi, have you heard a saying in Huaguo that 'it is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish?"
"I haven't heard of it."
"Minjungxi, let's wait until you understand the meaning of this sentence and then talk about the issue you just mentioned."
"Yes, I'll take a closer look at the meaning of what you just said, Councilor Guo."
Xu Minzhen asked Guo Dahai to send her the Chinese character of the sentence just now by text message, so that she could come down and understand the meaning of the words on her own.
"Councillor Kwok, your watch?"
Xu Minzhen saw that Guo Dahai was not wearing the watch that Gu Yanxiu gave him before, and she asked curiously.
"I sent my watch to the United States, and I have to return it to Yeon-so for such a valuable item."
When Gu Yanxiu said that he broke up, Guo Dahai sent the watch the next day, and as for the other gifts that Gu Yanxiu bought for him, such as clothes and the like, he couldn't return them, so he sorted them aside separately.
"Councilor Guo, you are really, how sad Yeon-so must be when she sees the watch."
"I know, but there's no way around it."
The Patek Philippe watch that Gu Yeon-so gave was worth about 400 million won, and it was impossible for Guo Dae to keep it with him, and sending it back was his only option.
After dinner, out of politeness, Guo Dahai invited Xu Minzhen to a cup of coffee, and then they parted in front of the Georgian embassy.
Next
After the Chosun Ilbo reported the news that Guo Dae and Gu Yeon-so broke up, the Internet exploded for a while.
Some people said that they didn't understand why Guo Dahai suddenly broke up with Gu Yeon-so, and some people said that Guo Dahai should not be related to the chaebol, and the breakup was a good thing for him.
Other good people pointed out that the previous incident between Guo Dahai and Xu Xian was true, and Guo Dahai chose to break up with Gu Yeon-so in order to be with Xu Xian.
Guo Dahai's office did not come forward to respond to the rumors from the outside world, and it was only two days later that the secretary Cheng Min said in an interview with Chosun Ilbo that Guo Dahai had indeed broken up with Gu Yeon-so, but as for the reason for the breakup of the two, it was their personal private matter, and asked the people not to waste their time and energy on this.
……
Time flies like a white horse, and in a blink of an eye, it has entered 2017.
On January 1, the first day of 2017, prosecutors announced that they had formally summoned Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Cho Yoon-hyun for investigation and confiscated the mobile phone of Song so-geun, vice minister of culture, sports and tourism, in an effort to investigate the establishment of a blacklist for the cultural, sports and entertainment sector.
Later, prosecutors announced that they had found and confirmed the president's directive in the notebook of former secretary Ahn Jong-beom, that is, to put him "in charge of SK Group's tax-free business."
For a time, SK Group was dragged into the whirlpool of public opinion.
Not long after prosecutors released the progress of the investigation, Lee announced his resignation from the New National Party.
On January 2, the police announced that Zheng Youla had been arrested in Denmark.
Park Won-go, former executive director of the Korea Equestrian Association, said in an interview with JoongAng Ilbo, "The biggest sponsor of Jung Yo-la is Samsung Group, and among the registered athletes, only Jung Yo-ra owns a precious horse, and the other runners are half-price horses."
….
Immediately afterward, the Chosun Ilbo reported that the Blue House wrote in a document of a private meeting with Samsung Vice Chairman Lee Jae-yong, "Lee Jae-yong hopes that the president will resolve the issue of Samsung's succession during his term of office."
Following Lee Min-bok, former New National Party representative Lee Jung-hyun announced his resignation from the New National Party.
That night, a fire broke out in JT's office building, but fortunately, it was discovered in time and did not cause major damage to JT.
For the next few days, every night in Guanghuamen Square, the people spontaneously organized a candlelight vigil.
On January 7, Pan Jiwen returned to China, and it was reported that he returned to China to test public opinion.
At Incheon International Airport, Pan Gil-moon's supporters surrounded the airport, holding up signs that read "Welcome Mr. Pan Gil-moon back to China", and some people shouted "Please Secretary-General Pan Gil-moon to save our country."
Pan Jiwen, who has experienced Sretary's generalofun experience, has a particularly high prestige in South Korea, and even overshadowed other candidates who were interested in running for election for a time.
Pan Jiwen set up his candidacy camp in Mapo-gu, Seoul, and under his cheering and shouting, many independents and members of the New National Party joined his lineup to advise him.
……
JB District, Seoul
In the Korean Beef Barbecue Farm store in Niu'er Cave, Park Won-soon and Guo Dae-e-kai and more than a dozen people gathered together, in addition to Ki Dong-min and Park Hong-geun and others, Park Yong-jin, Hong Yi-luo and Kim Hae-young also joined in under Guo Dae's introduction.
During the banquet, Guo Dahai's mobile phone rang non-stop, and in order not to affect the atmosphere of the party, he simply turned on the airplane mode on his mobile phone.
"What? Have you been looking for you a lot lately?"
Park Won-soon asked him with a smile.
"Yes, because it's New Year, there are quite a few people who want to ask me out for dinner."
"Who are they? Let me guess, is there Mayor Lee Jae-myung and Ahn Cheol-so representatives? Do you have any contact with Governor An from there?"
"Yes, Lord Mayor, you're like a god."
Guo Dahai replied with a smile.
"Who are you going to support?"
"Of course, I stand by your side unconditionally, Lord Mayor."
"What if I don't run for the election?"
"Mayor, are you really not going to run in the general election?"
Park Honggen asked eagerly without waiting for Guo Dahai to answer.
"Didn't I tell you last time that I wasn't going to run in the election."
"But, Lord Mayor, what you said last time has not happened yet, and now who can see that it is impossible for the New National Party to win this year's general election, and Ahn Cheol-so's People's Party has just been established, even if Ahn Cheol-so runs, he will not be able to beat us, and the most likely to win at present are the candidates of our party and Secretary General Pan, so I say, Lord Mayor, you must stand up and give it a try, we will not necessarily lose to President Wen."
As the second-in-command of Park Won-soon's faction, Park Hong-geun naturally hopes that the other party can come out to participate in the election, and if Park Won-soon is elected, then he will also be a cabinet chief at the very least, and he can sit on the throne of cabinet minister if he is better.
"What do you think, O sea?"
"I'll listen to you, Mayor."
Guo Dae does not express any opinion, no matter what decision Park Won-soon makes, he will express his support, of course, if the other party is interested in running in the general election, then he will do his best to try to help him win the general election.
….
"Okay, everyone, I understand your feelings, everyone thinks this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but I still say that I haven't governed Seoul yet, how can I govern the country well, so my focus will still be on next year's local elections, and as for this year's general election, I will officially announce my decision not to run in a few days."
Park Won-soon showed his attitude for the last time, and although Park Hong-geun and Qi Dongmin and others were unwilling in their hearts, they could only respect each other's decision.
"Okay, the sea, can you tell me what you think now? Who are you going to support in this year's party primary?"
"Your Excellency Mayor, if you don't run for election, I will personally support the general manager."
Guo Dahai knew that his decision would definitely be supported by Park Won-soon, so he bluntly spoke his mind.
"Representative Park, what about you?"
"I think Mayor Lee is better."
Park Hong-geun chose Lee Jae-myung.
"Councilor Qi, who are you going to support?"
"Me and Councillor Kwok
The same opinion."
Qi Dongmin is naturally on the same front as Guo Dahai.
"Mayor, who will you support?"
Nam In-soon asked Park Won-soon for the others.
"I personally support Wen Chang, of course, you can support whoever you want, I will not interfere."
Park Won-soon spoke his mind, and the rest of the people could only support the candidate he supported, because everyone understood that with Park Won-soon not running, with the support of the mayor of Seoul, the chances of Moon Minister's victory in the party were much higher.
"However, Lord Mayor, Secretary General Pan's approval rating has been very high recently."
Park Honggen mentioned Pan Jiwen, causing Park Yuanchun to frown.
"What did he do when he got home?"
Although Mr. Pan is the pride of South Koreans, he is seen by others who are also politicians as an obstacle in the way of the election.
"On his first day back home, Secretary General Ban visited the Second Fleet of the Navy and visited the Cheonan Memorial Hall, and yesterday he visited the graves of former presidents Syngman Rhee, Park Chung-hee, Kim Yong-sam and Kim Dae-jung, and today I heard that he will visit the grave of President Roh in Gimhae, Gyeongsangnam-do."
After Park Hong-geun finished speaking, Kim Won-er, who is the deputy mayor of Seoul, said with disdain: "The guy who didn't even come to President Roh's funeral is really his time to put on a show."
"Dahai, do you think Secretary General Pan has a good chance of succeeding in the general election this time?"
Park Won-soon asked Guo Dahai's opinion.
"Your Excellency, Secretary-General Pan has lived abroad for a long time, and he has not returned to South Korea for nearly ten years, I think his political views are very different from our national conditions in South Korea, and we can make a fuss about this during the general election, and I personally think that Secretary-General Pan does not have any outstanding political means, so I guess he should withdraw from this general election when he finds out that his ideas are far from the reality of South Korea."
Guo Dahai's statement shocked others, they knew that Pan Jiwen's ability was not as powerful as the people thought, but they did not expect Guo Dahai to guess that the other party would withdraw from this election.
….
"It's worthy of Councillor Kwok."
After coming back to his senses, Park Yongzhen was the first to praise.
"Your Excellency Mayor, if Secretary-General Pan fails to achieve unity with other parties, then he will be isolated in South Korea, so Congressman Kwak's speculation is not impossible."
Park Honggen continued Guo Dahai's analysis and said.
"According to you, then this election must have been won by our party?"
Park Won-soon said with a smile on his face.
"That's right, so Mayor, would you like to think about challenging the general manager again?"
Park Honggen still asked unrelentingly.
"Representative Park, I have made up my mind, you don't need to say more."
"Yes, I'm sorry."
Towards the end of the party, Guo Dahai replied to other people who had contacted him one by one, refusing to refuse, and going to the banquet he should attend.
"Lord Mayor."
A woman who was as old as Guo Dahai and had a very good figure and appearance walked in and said to Park Wonchun with a smile.
"Okay, have you paid the bills?"
"Yes."
"Secretary Quan, greetings."
Park Won-soon asked the woman to greet Guo Dahai and others.
"Hello, Councillor, I'm Kwon Se-ah from the Second Secretary's Office, so please take care of me in the future."
It turned out to be Park Won-soon's newly recruited secretary.
"Let's go."
Park Won-soon asked Kwon Shi-ah to settle the cost of the meal, and he took the lead in walking out, and everyone was preparing to part in the parking lot.
"Come over here."
Park Won-soon beckoned to Guo Dahai.
"Yes," Guo Dahai trotted over and said, "Do you have any orders, Lord Mayor?"
"At the banquet just now, it was inconvenient for me to ask you, you and Gu
After Yeon-so broke up, did LG Group look for you?"
"Nope."
"Isn't it a pity that you broke up like this? How do you carry out your plan?"
"Mayor, have you forgotten Choi In-geng?"
"Are you turning your attention to SK Group?"
"Yes, aren't Mrs. Choi and Chairman Choi having a conflict, I think this is an opportunity."
"Okay, you can do it, I'm leaving."
"Yes, you walk slowly."
Park Won-soon got into the car accompanied by the female secretary, looked at the car and looked away, Guo Dahai found Qi Dongmin who was standing in front of the car and making a call.
After the other party finished calling, he asked, "Senior, have you ever known about the mayor's newly recruited secretary Kwon Shi-ah?"
"Well, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I'll just ask, looking at Secretary Quan's appearance, she doesn't seem to be very old."
Guo Dahai took out a cigarette and handed it to Qi Dongmin, and the two stood in front of the car while smoking and chatting.
"That's right, I heard that Secretary Kwon seems to have been born in '86."
"Did you work at the city hall before?"
"I don't know about this, Councilor Guo, if you want to know, you can ask Vice Mayor Kim."
Guo Dahai threw the cigarette at his feet and stepped on it and said, "No need, I'm just asking casually, senior, I'll go first."
"Okay, Councilor Guo, be careful on the road."
Getting in the car, Guo Dahai remembered what happened to Park Wonchun in his previous life, and he was vaguely worried about the sudden appearance of Quan Shiya.
After thinking about it for a long time, he said to Yoon Shu-ho, "Shu-ho, you take the time to go to Seoul City Hall tomorrow, buy some coffee and fruits, visit my former colleagues in my name, and by the way, go to find out the news of Kwon Shi-ah, remember to do it quietly, you know?"
"Yes, don't worry, brother, I know what to do."
Guo Dahai called Kim Dong Won back and said, "Hey, Dong Won."
"Daehae, did you really break up with Yeon-so?"
"That's right."
"Ah, what do you think, Yeon-so she likes you so much."
"Nothing, I don't want to talk about that."
"Well, by the way, the construction of the medical station is progressing very well, and it is expected to be completed by March this year, and it will be officially operational in May."
"Okay, you've worked the medical station."
