“Are you very late today?”

Late night meetings with military generals, which have been going on for several days, have made tardy almost common these days.

I didn't want to show my disorganized side, but you have to have a knack for surviving this.

The fortunate thing is that everything has been sorted out as of yesterday, and if the meeting had continued for just one more day, everyone would have suffered an accident in which they were found dead.

“Secretary Kim. I'm sorry, but I'd like a cup of coffee, please."

At first, the president only called in the chief of the naval chief of staff.

After that, the Chief of Staff, sensing the importance of the matter, summoned the front-line admiral again, and after that, the president again summoned the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Minister of Defense.

In the end, we couldn't get a conclusion from the meeting at the Blue House for a day and a half, and we moved back to the Joint Chiefs of Staff and continued the marathon meeting.

“Should I hit it a little harder?”

“Yeah, I’m asking so much that I think it’s impossible.”

Secretary Kim shook her head as if worried about my condition and left the room.

In the meantime, what caught my eye were documents containing the results of last night's meeting.

Well, most of them contained the claims of the relevant departments, and the important point was that the first project to secure a 3,000-ton class submarine would start within the year.

“Three ships….”

The number of acquisitions for the first project was determined to be 3 ships.

The military's expected commissioning of the first ship is six years at the earliest.

However, I plan to build three ships at the same time based on the design I already have, and I plan to finish the first project within three years.

‘If we go in the same way, 6 years is enough to acquire all 9 ships.’

After all, from the second project onwards, there will be no time spent on design other than for additional design according to the military needs.

Considering that the average drying time per ship is about a year and a half. And as with the first project, if simultaneous construction is pursued, it is expected that all projects will be completed within six years.

'If that's the case, there's nothing more to ask for. The question is, will it be possible to secure a 5,000-ton class?

Most of the naval generals were actively sympathetic to securing submarines of 5,000 tons or more.

However, the common concern since then is the possible change in policy.

In the meantime, the government would change twice, but no one was sure about whether the policy would be followed to the end.

‘I will know when the situation arises, but I have to do what I can.’

[Korea has reached the round of 16 of their dreams.]

The TV, which had been turned on for a while to cool off, announced the news of our progress to the World Cup round of 16.

What immediately crossed my mind was the fact that the North had conducted a second naval provocation on the northwestern island around this time.

In a panic, I immediately called Executive Vice President Lim.

“Have you ever heard of North Korean trends?”

“It was a car to report on, but there was no particularly noticeable movement.”

Lim said as he placed some of the reports he was holding in his hand on the table.

The main contents are mainly related to the reinforcement work of the North Coast Base or the rotational arrangement of units, mainly everyday things.

I thought it was strange, so I called the Minister of National Defense this time, but he responded, "What kind of absurd thing to say?"

- Right now, the marine smart artillery system as well as the frigates are on standby on Baengnyeongdo. Would you like to make a provocation now? Only if you don't want to commit suicide then that's crazy.

Those words made sense.

To carry out another provocation in the northwest island area, which is now almost a fortress, would be suicidal.

The problem is that it is impossible to know what will happen eventually and how the event will be twisted, and I thought that would be a problem that will only be known as time passes.

-Anyway, the military is closely monitoring the North's movements, so for the time being, please enjoy the World Cup as well, Chairman Jin.

The minister smiled and tried to hang up the phone.

As I was about to press the end button with a smile, thinking I was worried about nothing, I heard the minister's voice again from the other side.

-I'm here to tell you, in case you're curious, Na Dae-yong, who recently completed screw improvement work on a large oil tanker, departed this morning to participate in Rimpack.

“Do you mean that a ship that has just been repaired will attend such an important drill? And what if there is a problem?”

I asked out of curiosity.

Maybe he was busy, or he was giving directions to those around him, but after a while, he answered my question again.

-Since we are all experiencing the same thing anyway, it was unreasonable to attend Rimpac with other submarines. However, since the US has already notified the organization of its formation, it is impossible to withdraw its submarine power. In that case, it was decided that it would be better to verify the repaired items. Rimpack is a training that is so close to actual practice, so there are no other opportunities.

At first glance, those words seemed to make sense.

Well, that's better than throwing a submarine that's been experiencing a drop in mobility due to cracks and disrupting training.

In such a situation, we are unexpectedly conducting a performance test in a situation close to the actual situation, but the Rimpack, which we were not interested in all the time, suddenly emerged as a problem that we should pay attention to.

‘It’s a lympack….. this is really…..’

[Everyone, Korea has accomplished the myth of advancing to the quarterfinals of the World Cup!]

One day in June, the news reported that Korea had advanced to the quarterfinals.

In this country, where the atmosphere was high, every street was a stage for festivals, and at night, the main roads in Gangnam were filled with people, so I always had to rush home from work.

stop!

Our company was also intoxicated by the World Cup fever.

As it gets closer to work, the employees start to change into red clothes.

Even the secretarial workers were already holding horned headbands in their hands, waiting for me to leave work early.

“Enjoy the game and see you tomorrow.”

Suddenly remembering old memories, he smiled and said, and climbed into the elevator.

As soon as the door is about to close, Vice President Kim Young-gi appears from nowhere and grabs the door.

“Are you just leaving work on a day like today?”

“It should be. If you delay, the car won't even get out of the building."

At those words, Vice President Kim stared at me.

The moment he tilts his head to see if he has something important to say, he clicks his tongue.

“Aren’t you doing this too much?”

"what do you mean?"

“It’s like there was no disturbance at all in this global festival.”

“·················ogue.”

“Don’t be like that. Today, the president is having some fun with the staff. Just in time, the staff will gather in the auditorium and watch the match today.”

With those words, Vice President Kim pulled me out of the elevator almost semi-forcibly.

The next destination was the company auditorium.

The staff, who had already filled their seats in red clothes, widened their eyes when I appeared.

“Come here…”

Secretary Kim immediately handed me a red T-shirt.

It's a good thing I didn't even recommend a horned headband. As soon as I change my clothes, the staff cheers and applauds.

‘I don’t know what the hell this is doing.’

As I already knew the outcome of the match, I was not particularly impressed.

However, just looking at the excited faces of the employees, the excitement began to slowly spread, and when the match started, I could even feel the sweat on my hands.

"Ah-oh!"

The staff continued to cheer with excitement for the successive saves.

Ironically, the thought I dug into at that moment was a sense of reality that I was really alive.

For some reason, today, I also wanted to intervene in that gap, so I said to Secretary Kim.

“As of today, we will allow in-house drinking, so please call the kiosk and ask them to bring you all the beer they have.”

"Oh oh!"

The staff who heard the words from the side shouted.

Vice President Kim Young-gi, who glanced at him, had a smile on his lips.

I coughed in an awkward mind and looked at the screen again.

"Hey! What if you throw a shit ball there!”

The flow of the game was tense for a while.

I wondered if a miracle would happen, but there is no sign of that happening.

Moreover, this time again, the referee's decision was in Germany's favor, and in the end, about the 33rd minute of the second half, Lee Woon-jae blocked the ball that Ballack had filled, but Ballack pushed it back in after that, and the situation became 0-1.

"Ah······."

For a moment, someone uttered words of regret, and at the same time, the entire auditorium was colored with silence.

Timing is an art.

At that moment, the words I spit out reverberated throughout the auditorium.

“Damn, those judges and those bastards…”

“·················ogue.”

[We will deliver the morning news.]

The heat of the World Cup, which seemed like it would never end, has subsided even more.

It's already the middle of July.

The country was returning to normal life again, and the debate over the improvement of the constitution rekindled in the economic world as the IT bubble continued to burst.

"Good morning."

“Welcome, Chairman.”

After watching the World Cup match with the staff, the faces of the secretarial staff looking at me became brighter.

Should I call this a good result?

Well, it's better than the eyes that looked like a grim reaper in the past.

"President!"

Secretary Kim, who showed up after 30 minutes of going to work, entered the room, panting.

She looks up to see if something urgent has arisen, and she chins up a piece of paper she was holding in her hand and puts it down on her desk.

“The Daeyu Truck Team, who participated in the Dakar Rally, announced the completion yesterday.”(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

"Ok?"

For me, it was very good news.

It means that the performance of the vehicle has been proven to have been completed in the extreme difficulty of running through a rough terrain such as a desert for dozens of days.

But wasn't that all?

Secretary Kim smiles brightly and continues the conversation again.

“Don’t be surprised, Polar Bear won. That too, with a time difference of more than half a day from the 2nd place team.”

“·················ogue.”

It felt like my thoughts had stopped for a moment.

No matter how much remodeling was done, the Polar Bear had only one or two disadvantages compared to other vehicles.

Still, winning the championship was like a dream for me.

“Is the participants safe?”

In fact, that was the most important part.

The Dakar Rally is called the Rally of Death because of the constant number of accidents every year.

Fortunately, however, there was no accident like this in our team, and reports of serious injuries occurred in the neighboring country's Miss Bish team continued.

“When will the team return?”

“I plan to return after finishing all the events the day after tomorrow. But right now, the Western media seems to be in an uproar? The first car won the championship, but it seems that interest is pouring in because it is a remodeled military service.”

That was exactly what I was hoping for.

Above all else, a clear publicity effect.

Other than that, I am looking forward to the reaction that would have taken place in Japan by now.

“Before you return, pay close attention to the safety and security of your vehicle and the entire team. Because there is a possibility that you can approach it from somewhere.”

“Yes, there is no need to worry, as we have dispatched nearly 20 security personnel from Jaewoo Security. Besides, this time, CEO Jung also accompanied me...”

I thought it was a godsend to send CEO Jung together just in case.

At least, there aren't many people who have the ability to cope with crisis situations that much.

Well, it's not necessarily the case, but since I decided to participate with strict security as a guarantee, there is little point in causing problems.

Follow me!

My phone rang as I was about to calm my uncontrollable mood.

Number of ambiguous patterns.

The person who immediately comes to mind makes my lips twist.

Can you make nuclear weapons too?-92
