Chapter 58

[Hello everyone. Motoshichi, who used to talk a lot and ride a lot, was eventually put in Jaewoo’s arms.]

It’s already been a month since I came back from Russia.

In the news, the news of our acquisition of Motorsich became a hot topic.

Experts from all walks of life were busy analyzing the meaning and impact, and the stock price soared as much as 30 percent in just three days.

‘Four months later, it’s the arrival of the port…’

The Russian side has contacted us in the near future to send two aircraft through a special ship in response to the request to sell the aircraft.

At that time, the first thing I would do is analyze their design mechanism through complete disassembly.

Another one will be used as a pre-test aircraft for the AESA for fighter jets that we are developing.

“Chairman, Director of the National Intelligence Service and Deputy Chief Lim are here.”

Upon arrival, Deputy Director Lim informed the Director of the National Intelligence Service of Lim Hyuk-soo.

Thanks to this, not only did the entire NIS turned upside down, but it is also the first day for each department to go out to catch mice.

Fortunately, no more rats were found, and this case also turned out to be Lim Hyuk-soo’s solo crime.

“I don’t have the face to see Chairman Jin.”

As soon as I entered the room, the head of the National Intelligence Service apologized to me several times.

At first glance, Deputy Manager Lim’s face was floating yellow, so it seems that the measures were taken quite seriously.

“How about Deputy Chief Lim…….”

“Of course I was fired.”

“·················ogue.”

“It’s natural, so you shouldn’t make such a face.”

He had a bright expression on his face.

Actually, I’m not in a situation where I should be sorry, but I’m still not comfortable with it.

With a sudden thought, I made a suggestion to him.

“Chief Lim. Do you remember what I said last time?”

“·················ogue.”

“In the worst case scenario, I will take responsibility for at least one deputy chief Lim.”

Lim’s eyes widened at those words.

The same goes for the NIS.

With a clear expression on his face, the director slapped Lim on the shoulder.

“Do you think that would be ok?”

“He told me to do something in the Jaewoo group…….”

Lim asked with an expression as if holding on to the string of hope.

It was a place where he would be active, and it was widespread.

But what I expected was to take charge of the intelligence department using his special skills.

“Now is the time for companies to collect information. I would like to appoint Hani Lim as the head of the strategic planning department of the Jaewoo Group.”

The position of the head of strategic planning was also a key position in the group.

Although the position is a manager, it is a position where you are treated like a managing director.

The important thing is that his salary doesn’t even compare to the level he is currently receiving, so maybe he had that in mind, and Lim’s expression brightened up.

“Is that possible?”

“I am the chairman. You don’t think you don’t have that kind of authority, do you?”

“But it wouldn’t matter if I moved to a private company rather than a public company right away…”

“I will tell you about that part. Well, it’s not like there’s never been a case like that before, so it shouldn’t matter. it’s good anyway You said it was a phone violation, but this friend is out of luck.”

The director of the National Intelligence Service, who was listening, intervened and offered excessive congratulations.

He, too, must not have been comfortable with leaving the deputy chief, who he was once a comrade with.

In fact, I didn’t say anything, but maybe the reason I brought the Deputy Manager Lim to this place today was probably because I was expecting such a situation.

“Once the President’s approval is granted, I will issue a personnel order. So, in the meantime, enjoy your vacation. Oh, and what happened to the things you collected back from my office and home?”

I asked the director of the National Intelligence Service, leaving behind the Deputy Director Lim, who said thank you over and over again.

Actually, today’s meeting is to hear the results of that part.

Perhaps because of the importance of the matter, the head of the National Intelligence Service immediately hardened again.

“Like Chairman Jin said, wiretapping devices were installed in all of them. Oh my gosh, how did I come up with such a thought, the detector that Hyuk-soo Lim brought to Chairman Jin was also fake.”

That was something I had discovered in the first place.

As soon as I got back, I checked it using the detector Lim Hyuk-soo brought, but no problem was found, and I was more suspicious of that, so I purchased another detector and tested it again.

And the result also found eavesdropping devices on all phones.

So I informed the Director of the National Intelligence Service.

“I was told I was going to be careful, but it didn’t work.”

The head of the National Intelligence Service nodded.

He narrowed his brow as if he had remembered something else.

“If you look at it that way, Hyuksu wore his head in his own way. In the first place, I installed a wiretapping device on Chairman Jin’s cell phone clumsily and made it found, and using it as a stepping stone, I felt a sense of crisis, so I installed the wiretap device easily at home and in the office. To be honest, I’m glad that Chairman Jin noticed it sooner, and if I didn’t know, it would have been a catastrophe.”

That, I think, is fortunate.

What would have happened if I hadn’t doubted Lim Hyuk-soo?

Naturally, I thought that the phones were provided by the National Intelligence Service, and I would have used them with confidence, and all kinds of secrets might have been passed on.

“Really, it turned out that it was the Cabinet Investigation Office that recruited Hyuksu. The problem is that it is only his confession, but it seems that it will be difficult to formally protest for a while because it is the Japanese far-right groups that actually paid him.”

The head of the National Intelligence Service continued with a look on the face that the situation was not favorable.

Well, in fact, do they snort for protesting?

What I was really curious about was their purpose, but when the question was answered, the Director of the National Intelligence Service hesitated for a long time.

“Even if it’s a wiretapping device for the purpose of stealing information, they don’t know why Russia has followed suit. I wonder if it was meant to harm me, is that right?”

“…probably.”

The head of the National Intelligence Service answered in a crawling voice.

Silence continued for a long time after that.

At this point, I thought that it was time for me to make a decision, so I revealed the thoughts that I had only been thinking about in my head.

“Can I get some help from the military?”

“what······.”

“I would like to take this opportunity to establish an organization that can monitor and protect important people throughout the group, rather than entrusting my security to just a few people. I would like you to select some talented people in the military to expand the number of people.”



“It is possible. However, for the special forces or special forces agents who are about to be discharged from the military right now, the situation behind them is difficult, so the military will like them more.”

“That would be it. But what worries me is who will lead them. In other words, we need some skilled commanders in the current position.”

“Let’s talk about that part first.”

The head of the National Intelligence Service readily responded.

Form, who glanced at the clock, seemed to have another promise.

Unsurprisingly, he got up from his seat, alluding to the president.

“Then I will have to go today. Actually, an interview with your Excellency is scheduled about an hour later. Ah! And those phones are now safe to use.”

Beep!

As soon as he finished speaking, the intercom on the desk spit out a loud noise.

As if feeling that the situation was exquisite, the Director of the National Intelligence Service and Lim left the room with light smiles, and I immediately picked up the receiver.

-President, Inbae Choi of the Institute’s Software Development Department has arrived.

Choi In-bae was designated as the number 1 dispatched worker.

From the thought that it would be easy for him to acquire Russian software development know-how if he has software development skills that cannot be found in this country.

Fortunately, he readily accepted my offer and will be leaving in the next few days.

“Hello, Chairman.”

His age, as confirmed on paper, was exactly thirty this year.

He is only three years younger than me.

Due to the common denominator of being from the same KAIST, there was not much sense of distance between the company owner and employees.

“He recently perfected AESA’s automatic terrain tracking algorithm, which he is developing for a fighter jet, right?”

“Yes, I did a few touches based on the unfinished sauces that the president gave me through Director Kim Hee-won, and surprisingly, it worked.”

He was once again proven to be a genius.

Prior to his return, terrain tracking technology using radar, which had not been completed even in ADD.

I handed it over to the research team about a year ago just in case, and Inbae Choi completed it as if it were a boon.

At that time, the developers of ADD could not complete it even if it took 5 years.

“Anyway, I am just grateful to have talented people like Choi In-bae around me. In that sense, unlike others, Choi In-bae’s dispatch period of one year will be sufficient.”

“Yeah? No, why am I the only one…”

“Mr. Choi In-bae has a different job to take on at that time.”

That was with the KFX software improvement work I already had in mind.

All sorts of software that we once went to on the verge of completion.

However, if it is expected that the aircraft will be larger than before and the armament and other avionics systems will be changed, of course, it will have to undergo appropriate modifications, and I selected Choi In-bae as the most suitable person to be responsible for it.

“What if I had to take charge of myself…”

“First, it will be put into building an avionics integrated test system.”

The avionics integration test system is a system that tests and supports the integration of major electronic devices and components without mutual interference.

In other words, it is a system that verifies the task of integrating weapons, sensors, and navigation systems centering on the mission computer of the developed aircraft.

Before the return, Korea had jointly developed and built the part with foreign companies, and because of that, it was difficult to renovate the system by borrowing foreign power every time.

In the end, to overcome the shortcomings, around 2005, KAI attempted to localize and succeeded.

And, of course, I have that technology.

“Are you telling me to develop a system integration laboratory (SIL)?”

“There is nothing to look so worried about. Most of the sources are already in my possession. Perhaps with Choi In-bae’s skills, it will be possible to build a SIL that suits our situation.”

“·················ogue.”

Choi In-bae rolled his eyes.

If you leave it alone, you will be asked the source.

Slowly, the direction of the conversation changed.

“Yeah, I heard that he is also good at ADA (Ada), is that true?”

“of course. That’s why Nokid was trying to sign me.”

ADA was a programming language that was easy to develop and maintain on a large scale, and had the most powerful and extensive functions among existing languages.

It is also the standard programming language for the US Department of Defense.

However, since the program itself is very difficult to handle, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find users. Perhaps Nokid bought Choi In-bae’s ability.

“By the way, how many people are there in total?”

As if my staring gaze was burdensome, he asked, holding up a teacup.

I smiled for a moment, and handed him a piece of paper.

“A total of 24 people including Choi In-bae will be dispatched to the Sukhoi Design Bureau. Also, the same amount of manpower will be dispatched to us from Motorsic.”

“Motorshichi seems to have agreed to dispatch manpower to Korea, right?”

“Because we own it now. Of course, it wasn’t easy, but it was possible because of the small amount of money fed to the Ukrainian government. One thing to be aware of is that you should never come into contact with outsiders during the dispatch period.”

“It’s only for one year, so even if it doesn’t matter, will other researchers accept it?”

“I understand the frustration. Therefore, we plan to provide an environment without any inconvenience in life. If he still refuses, that researcher should be excluded from this project.”

“I told you I could hold on. So don’t even think about excluding me.”

He smiled brightly and shivered.

What remains to be conveyed remains.

He handed him another sheet of paper and continued.

“This is a confidential pledge. And it’s also a contract that the NIS will agree to take care of the researchers’ families.”

“It’s more like surveillance than care, do you mean that your family also monitors?”

“As the matter is a matter, there is a possibility that the powers of evil may approach the family.”

He nodded his head and signed the paperwork.

What was he thinking, he quickly looked up again and looked at me.

“But are you sure that you are responsible for the safety of the researchers?”

“You don’t have to worry about that. First of all, the NIS side will dispatch them for safety, and the Russian Foreign Intelligence Agency also agreed to cooperate. And in case of an emergency, you can call the number I give you immediately.”

“Does anyone come running to you when you call?”

“I will run, but a rather scary woman may come.”

Even as I spit the words out, I laughed out loud.

Natasha.

her face lit up again.

Just before returning to Korea, I specifically asked Alexei to ensure the safety of our researchers, and he pointed to Natasha as an answer to the request.

Give her a call any time of her and she’ll run to her.

“What are you talking about…….”

“Whatever it is, safety means you don’t have to worry about it.”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“Then I’m happy. When can I leave?”

“That’s something that Kim Hee-won, head of the research institute, will give again.”

The conversation with Choi In-bae ended with that.

As she turns and looks at his back as he exits the room, her sadness and anticipation penetrate her heart at the same time.

‘Ttt, it’s not easy being stuck in a foreign place at a young age and rotting. By the way, why hasn’t CEO Yoon contacted you yet?’

Come to think of it, there has been no contact from Yoon, CEO of Aerospace yet.

It was yesterday that I went down to Changwon to inspect the engine parts production line that was stopped due to a dispute with Nokid.

Just when I thought that there was something wrong, luckily, the phone rang.

“Yes, CEO Yoon. Did something happen? I waited a long time.”

– I’m sorry. There should be one or two places to check.

“So what is the result?”

-Some facilities need improvement, but the line itself is not a problem. But is there really a possibility that engine parts assembly will resume here again?

Actually, that was something I couldn’t even predict.

It is unconditional to say that it is a fighter development project of its own, but it is not something that can be received.

If there are people who support it, of course there will be people who oppose it, and in the meantime, there is a high possibility that there will be all kinds of lobbies and other obstructions from US companies.

But for me, I have to assume it’s approved.

That way, it will be possible to reduce the amount of time spent on solving secondary problems.

-Anyway, as you said, it doesn’t matter if it costs some money, so it’s the way to go up telling you to thoroughly inspect and manage the line.

“You did a really good job.”

When I hung up the phone, I got a slight headache.

The moment he was about to head to the sofa to rest for a while, this time Secretary Kim entered the room again and announced the news of Thales.

“Chairman, for the scenic beauty of Thales, the director sent a manpower supply and demand report.”

Damn, I don’t know if I’m really going to fall like this.

I think we should seriously consider bringing in Jin Hyun-chul again.

“If you’re tired, can you post again later?”

“No, it’s fine, so please come here.”

Professor Myung Seung-eun was in charge of some of the parts and materials development that started with a secret budget provided by the government.

A material development project that was too bloated to be able to handle only in my lab.

Moreover, it was a decision made because Thales had the upper hand in possessing the core equipment, but in hindsight, it was actually the right decision.

‘By the way, when it comes to full-scale fighter development, line construction would be a problem…’

In fact, that was a serious problem.

In the worst case of manpower, it is necessary to bring in skilled manpower of Motorsitch, but isn’t that possible only when the line exists?

“wait!”

At that moment, a thought flashed through my mind.

KAI.

If there is, that would be a sufficient solution.

Rather, how about we absorb KAI?

‘There’s nothing wrong with that.’

Can you make nuclear weapons too?
