Episode 215: Under the sovereignty of the country, peace (1)

[Unprecedented! Go Deok-seung, Lee Mun-ki, Jang Hoo, Choi Soon-yong 'Promotion of Unification of Candidates']

[Candidate Deok-Seung God ‘I pay tribute to the bravery of other candidates’]

[Seoul City Superintendent's Candidate Election in Chaos... Who is the winner?]

The faces of those who saw the article hardened.

It was because the moment he saw the data brought by the monitoring agent, he realized that the preponderance of the approval rating so far had become dangerous.

“Damn, I thought it was strangely quiet, but God Deok-seung had a plan like this. No, but didn’t everyone notice?”

People shook their heads at the words of the general manager, who was full of bewilderment.

“… … .”

“Is there no one there? Oh right. Secretary Kim Didn't you say that you and Deok-seung Ko and Moon-ki Lee had people you knew at the election camp?"

Secretary Kim opened her mouth with a bitter expression.

“What is there? There is. Whew, that's no help."

“Did you not hear anything from them?”

"Yes. In fact, I contacted him once this morning as well, but at that time, the approval ratings were low and everyone was saying they were going to die.”

"okay? Damn it. I suffered like this, but I did.”

The general manager frowned and sighed.

This is because it would have been easier to plan a countermeasure if they had heard anything.

“Huh, if I had known it would be like this, I would have prepared it well then.”

Hearing Secretary Kim's words, the general manager made a puzzled expression.

“At that time?”

Then Secretary Kim narrowed his eyes as if he didn't remember and continued.

“No, why is it during the strategy meeting that was just after the TV debate? One of the items on the agenda at that time was about unification, do you not remember?”

Then the general manager, who tilted his head for a moment, opened his eyes wide as if he had remembered it.

"Oh right. Then, did you say something like that? Whoops, damn it. I should have been prepared for that.”

He even shook his head in regret.

Looking at it, I nodded my head.

In fact, it was not that there was no talk of unification within the Candidate Camp of Yoo Deok-hyun.

[Candidate Deok-Hyun Yoo’s approval rate of 45%]

[Deokseung God’s approval rating is 29%]

[Lee Moon-ki candidate approval rate 15%]

[Candidate support rate 8%]

[Candidate Soon-Yong Choi’s approval rate of 7%]

It's because if the gap in approval ratings (16%) between the first and second places is as large as it is now, the second place would think of flipping it over at least once.

‘How about thinking about unification? From the standpoint of other candidates, that is, Candidate Koh Deok-seung, wouldn’t that be the only answer now?’

However, in Yoo Deok-seung's camp, it was concluded that the possibility of unification between Candidate Ko and other candidates was quite low.

‘Perhaps unification would be difficult?’

'why not? Other candidates will know that they are far away from the election, so if you make a few seats, you can do it okay, right?’

‘Ah, you know the personality of candidate Goh Deok-seung. That person ate the whole thing by himself and died when his stomach exploded. He’s not someone who can share what he has in his hands with anyone else.’

‘Hmm, is that so?’

'Yes. And in order for Candidate Deok-seung God to unify, he must be able to cover all the candidates with the 3rd, 4th, and 5th approval ratings, or at least the 3rd and 4th candidates... As you all know, there is very little possibility that candidate Lee Moon-ki in 3rd place would be a completely different person from candidate Koh Deok-seung, his supporters, promises, and ideology.’

‘What is it, Lee Moon-gi? But isn’t there a possibility of unification with people like Janghui Jang in 4th place and Soonyong Choi in 5th place? If there are two people, I think God Deok-seung and the support group are the same. The promises are almost the same... Also, if you add up the approval rate of the two people, it's about 15%. Hmm... From my point of view, that would be pretty intimidating, right?’‘Ah, that’s right, it’s 44%. And there is no guarantee that the approval rate will go all the way up. No, like these days, when God’s image is not good, it seems like he could be attached to other candidates, our Candidate Yoo or 3rd place candidate Lee Moon-ki?’

'Hmm… It's not like that.'

As a result of analyzing various factors, it was because I thought that the possibility of God’s unification and success was very low.

‘Haha, right? You do need to be careful though... In fact, it's almost impossible... .'

Therefore, in the Yu Deok-hyun camp, we decided to focus all our efforts on maximizing the support we currently have, rather than focusing on countermeasures for difficult events.

‘That’s why the Yeouido campaign was planned.’

However? It was the unification of the candidates with the 3rd, 4th, and 5th candidates who thought it would be impossible no matter what kind of magic God used.

So, not for the people of Yoo Deok-hyeon's camp, but at night. It was like getting stabbed in the foot by a trusted axe.

‘It’s ironic to believe in the limits of the other candidate, though.’

However, he couldn't hold onto the back of his head with a tingling sensation.

If I didn't want to be defeated quietly like this, I had to defend the attack somehow.

“Shall we shake it for a moment? It may be difficult for other people, but for Candidate Lee Moon-ki, who has a similar tendency to Candidate Yoo, the story might be a little more successful, right?”

Secretary Kim looked at the general manager and opened his mouth.

Then the people looked at the general manager with anticipation.

But.

"no. It will be too late to respond now. Judging by the timing when the knights came up, it seems they were very determined from the other side.”

The general manager only shook his head with a hazy complexion.

"okay?"

“Look, one of those many, many days is the day we are campaigning in Yeouido. Articles came pouring out as if he had been waiting just when Candidate Yoo started his speech. What do you think this means?”

"Ah… .”

“Probably not prepared in a day or two. So, let's come and meet the other candidates... We're only going to get more and more ridiculous."

“Huh, I guess.”

The general manager nodded with a determined expression on his face.

“Yeah, look at us there. In the current situation, if people fall in to shake things up, who will take care of this place?”

He even pointed at Yoo Deok-hyun's back.

Then, people's eyes reached the back of Yoo Deok-hyun.

Wow-

The cries of the people that come out without a break following the words of Deok-Hyun Yoo.

Seeing the number of people passing 25,000 and approaching 30,000, the campers sighed heavily.

“It is.”

All the capabilities of the current election camp were mobilized for this campaign.

So, if it was made hastily, unification could not be prevented and the campaign could also be unsuccessful, and the worst could happen.

'Of course, in the worst case.'

“Then what do you do? But you can't just stand still, can you?"

“First, let’s organize the data and prepare countermeasures before the candidates come down. No matter how many people are needed at the campaign site, not all campers are needed.”

Then the general manager came forward and started distributing the work to people.

“For now, Secretary Kim and the members of the Election Response Committee watch the campaign site. It will probably require a lot of people.”

"Yes."

“And the people in the public relations department will collect data on unification by 5 o’clock, and the people at the situation headquarters will come up with a countermeasure with me, okay?”

The people who received the general manager's instructions nodded with tense faces.

“Huh, I see.”

Everyone seemed very embarrassed and afraid of this situation.

‘Because it’s really close to five o’clock.’

But I was rather happy with this situation.

A crisis is an opportunity.

If you have a tactic to win the battle, if you have the will and the ability to execute it, it is ten times better to have the enemies gathered in one place than before the enemies are scattered here and there.

‘Of course, the question is whether there are enough strategic tactics in place.’

With a nervous expression on my face, I slowly opened my mouth to the people getting up.

“You don’t have to do that.”

For a moment, people's eyes turned towards me.

"Yes? What do you mean by that?”

He seemed a little perplexed by the sudden situation.

‘Because I’ve been sitting still without saying anything until now.’

I looked at the people with puzzled faces and smiled.

“Everyone can focus on the campaign site.”

Then people looked at me with expressions like ‘Maybe?’

A little bit of doubt and a little bit of anxiety. And slowly, expectations began to appear.

It seems that the abilities I have shown them have created a strange trust in them.

“CEO Kim. Do you have any other method this time?”

The general manager asked me with a cautious attitude.

I slowly nodded my head as I caught people's gazes at a glance.

"Sure. It's going to be a lot of fun, so look forward to it."

.

.

.

a few days later.

[God Deokseung 51%]

[Yoo Deok-hyun 49%]

The moment God Deok-seung's approval rating exceeded that of Yoo Deok-hyeon.

Wow-

The people at Godokseung's camp cheered and looked towards where Godokseung was.

“Congratulations to the nominees!”

“Congratulations!”

Deokseung God, who received the congratulations from the people, nodded with a friendly face.

“Haha, thank you all. thanks. There's really only a few days left until the election, so let's all do our best a little bit more."

Then, the people looked at Goddess with twinkling eyes.

“You’re amazing.”

“I’m proud of you!”

“Unification was a godsend.”

In fact, I did just that.

In fact, even just yesterday, Go Deok-seung was in a situation that was no different from falling into a swamp with no end in sight.

‘Candidate. Election workers are clamoring for payment today.’

‘Candidate. The Ilyang Foundation contacted me saying that it would be difficult to support any more... .'

‘Candidate. The National Tax Service is contacted by the Financial Supervisory Service... .'.

.

Like everyone else, it was a situation where I would have given up the candidate position.

But he didn't give up.

Because the moment he gave up the election, the wings that would lift him to heights would lose power and fall.

‘I will become a dog that lost the fight.’

It was unacceptable for him, who had lived his life to rise to a high place.

Therefore, he planned something that he would not have thought of before.

That's right... unification. It was a consolidation strategy based on his own total concessions.

‘Candidate Lee Moon-ki, are you okay today? If that's okay with you, how about dinner tonight?'

Of course, the process was not easy.

Candidates with 4th and 5th approval ratings lowered their tails and nodded frightfully to mix a few words, but Candidate Lee Moon-gi, who ranked 3rd... It was because I declined his offer with a fairly strong attitude.

‘I will specify. When I eat with Candidate Ko, I feel like I can’t digest it.’

But.

‘Haha, candidate. All right, candidate. So how about lunch tomorrow? Oh, you don't think so? So what about tomorrow evening?’

There are no permanent enemies or allies in the world of politics.

After continuously applying pressure and presenting tasty food at the same time, candidate Lee Moon-gi could not stand it and nodded his head.

‘Hey, I lost. Then I will follow Candidate's suggestion. Instead, do all of us take care of you?’

‘Haha, of course. Welcome Candidate Moonki Lee.’

And as a result.

'Finally, representative! Finally crossed 45%! Congratulations.'

It surpassed Yoo Deok-hyun's approval rating, which he had not even dared to rub against, and was eventually able to obtain more than half of the approval rating.

It was a moment of indescribable emotion for him, who had endured all kinds of ill-will until now after the TV debate.

Of course, there were a lot of things that I gave up for him, but with this level of results, I thought I could accept them with a smile.

'It's a bit heartbreaking, though.'

But then.

“Candidate… .”

A heavy sound came from behind me.

Looking back, his new assistant was looking at him with a serious expression.

An ominous energy passed through Go Deok-seung's chest.

'what?'

God Deok-seung's face hardened like a Jang-seung in such an ominous feeling, like when he was hit by a blow at a TV debate.

"What? What's going on?"

Then the aide held out a tablet PC to him and opened his mouth with a cautious attitude.

"that is… Candidate's daughter... .”

In an instant, the blood disappeared from Go Deok-seung's face.

"what?"

“The candidate’s daughter in Germany had an interview about this election, and the content… .”

God Deok-seung looked at the tablet PC held out by the assistant with an anxious face.

Then there... .

[…] Seoul citizens, my father, Candidate Koh Deok-seung, should never be the superintendent of education.]

The finger he had thrown away was swinging a sharp knife at him.
