Coin Jackpot After Divorce

Entrepreneur’s fame

Earth Channel’s short-term performance continued.

Despite the Chinese government’s lockdown measures, the effect of increasing subscribers has been amazing.

―Li Ning [Hong Kong] I want to meet many friends.

―Chung Lei [Hong Kong] I like tricolor cats.

―Xiao Ahqing [Canada] I work in the construction industry.

―Dan Ryu [Hong Kong] I love to travel.

Channel 7.

Chinese people living in Hong Kong and Canada were active in the space where they could upload videos.

Myungwoo Oh looked at the data and said.

“If you look at the access area, most of them are Chinese. In fact, the number of subscribers from Hong Kong has increased considerably.”

The feeling that Hong Kong’s internet population has suddenly increased enormously.

Hong Kong is also part of China, but so far Google has not been blocked.

It was predicted that if the Earth channel was blocked before Google, the Chinese-speaking Internet population in Canada and Australia would increase significantly.

“But what is the reason for the increase in Hong Kong subscribers?”

“Isn’t it because you got into a fight with a Chinese reporter?”

“yes?”

“How refreshing it must have been to see someone talking to China.”

The size of the Earth Channel was getting bigger. It is certain that it will break through 500 million sooner or later.

It is developing various businesses, not just OTT, but it is said that Facebook has 2.8 billion subscribers, so it has a long way to go.

“I still feel sorry for you and the staff.”

“What?”

“You made it big by arguing with a Chinese reporter.”

I said something at the press conference, but I wondered what it would have been like if I had endured it.

If the Chinese government had delayed blocking the official site, it would have helped Earth Resources’ business even a little more.

“no. We are the internet generation. Even if you get into an argument on the Internet, how big is the psychological damage? If there is an argument, you must never lose.”

Oh Myung-woo understood easily, but he still felt sorry for some of the staff.

So, I apologized to the staff I met in the hallway and the staff I saw at the meeting.

“Sorry. Because I showed an impatient side at the press conference.”

“it’s okay. There was a glimpse of human charm.”

“yes?”

“The CEO is cool even when he gets angry.”

“… … .”

There were so many fans who liked me in this company.

* * *

I felt refreshed whenever I rode my bike to work in the morning.

More than 4,000 employees work in San Francisco.

The pleasure of working with them and pioneering the market.

‘Employees of Earth Resources, Goal. At least the progress shouldn’t be slowed down because of me.’

Externally, I was praised for my management skills, but in reality, I was worried that it might hinder the development of the company.

“Jongyeop.”

“Yes. CEO.”

“If you see any flaws in me, tell me anytime.”

“yes?”

“You have to listen to someone close to you to correct your mistakes. When I’m doing something wrong, point me out.”

Lee Jong-yeop acted as an executive assistant and followed him everywhere.

I was helping with a lot of work, and I was watching every move, so I thought I would be able to take a good look at the pros and cons.

“Are you talking about the downside? It’s not difficult.”

Lee Jong-yeop said without thinking for a long time.

“I commute by bike every morning.”

“yes? why is that a downside If you ride a bicycle, you can fill up the lack of exercise and start the day fresh. Look at the street scene, and see the people.”

“… … .”

“Jong-yeop. It’s because you don’t know the charm of a bicycle yet.”

“Yes?”

“Let’s go hiking north of San Francisco this weekend. If you ride a bike for about 100km on the coastal road past the Golden Gate, you will know its charm well.”

“… … .”

Lee Jong-yeop cried, but it was inevitable.

I want to tell my subordinates one more good thing.

I had a conversation with Oh Myeong-woo alone.

“It came from talking to Eddie.”

An explanation that the provision of software, which was conceived for the convenience of subscribers, can be linked to the application market of the computer and mobile markets.

And ultimately, even the story of being able to challenge the operating system market.

“Hmm. It makes sense. Pangea Live has room for further development.”

“yes. Because high-speed communication technology is getting faster and faster.”

High-speed internet speed has increased 10 times in 10 years.

Korea was once ranked as one of the countries with the fastest Internet, but as fiber optic communication spreads around the world, discussing speed rankings has become meaningless.

Even Elon Musk was installing a Starlink system in space.

A system that launches more than 40,000 satellites to provide access to 1 gigabit high-speed Internet anywhere in the world.

Ultimately, it is said that it is to establish a communication network between Earth and Mars.

‘It’s a case where a genius can know what will happen if he sets a goal and pushes it steadily.’

Myungwoo Oh nodded.

“First of all, it is a software market. It’s like entering a new field, but it’s not bad.”

“yes. Games can also be called software. Eddie said there would be no problem with the support from Earth Channel.”

“right. It’s simple, but it seems like a must-have service.”

After an agreement with Vice President Myung-Woo Oh, we looked at the software market together.

Adobe, which provides Photoshop and Illustrator services as well as MS Office.

Competitive software companies were making a lot of money through subscription services.

From the standpoint of a company, it was natural to try to consistently make a lot of money from customers, but it may not be the direction customers want.

“Let’s find great software all over the world. I think we should survey the programmers and get feedback from the users.”

Analysis and judgment of software companies.

I thought this process would take at least a month.

“Why make easy things difficult?”

Oh Myung-woo sometimes had brilliant thoughts.

He has posted on several of his communities.

A poll to vote on the free and paid software you currently use.

Participants could add a new survey box or select a desired program from the list.

“It will take a day to find out which software is popular.”

“day?”

“yes. It will be decided by more than 50,000 votes.”

* * *

The results of the vote came out the next morning.

Categorize currently sold software or software released free of charge.

Images, graphics, document editing, audio, PC management and security, web browsers and more.

“Let’s get in touch first.”

“great.”

“The place you must recruit is Figma, the company that makes graphic tools. It’s competing with Adobe and increasing its market share. Currently, the service is provided free of charge to individuals.”

“Hmm. Let’s try to get in touch.”

I searched for contact information among the programmers and called the representative of the company directly.

“hello. This is Shin Kim from Earth Resources.”

-yes?

“My name is Shin Kim, the CEO of Earth Resources.”

-Are you crazy?

pop.

The phone is disconnected.

Feeling absurd for a while, I walked again.

“This is Shin Kim, the CEO of Earth Resources. I want to talk a little bit about business.”

-Go to a mental hospital.

pop.

As the call hung up again, I had no choice but to mobilize my network from the startup.

―Kim Shin: I’m trying to get in touch with a graphic tool company called Figma.

-Chris: Huh? you can just call Is there a place in San Francisco that runs a company and refuses to contact Shin Kim?

CEO of Aurora, a self-driving truck company.

There was a time when I invested in a startup, and since then, I have been in a cooperative relationship with future cars through steady research and development.

―Kim Shin: I called and said it was me, but I didn’t believe it.

―Chris: Haha. I will do just that. I don’t know if you were 2 years ago, but it’s hard to believe it easily even if you contact me now. okay. Let me speak first.

And five minutes later, the phone rang.

A trembling voice that you hear as soon as you answer the phone.

-sorry. I was unaware and made a mistake.

“no. I am sorry for contacting you so suddenly.”

-He’s someone I’ve always wanted to talk to at least once. I’m also subscribing to CEO’s videos on YouTube and Earth channels.

“Me?”

-yes. I respect you as a businessman.

“… … .”

I was speechless for a moment.

Even though it was through a cell phone, the feeling of genuine respect was conveyed.

“I have something to tell you about business. Can I visit you?”

-This place?

“yes. If meeting at work is uncomfortable, another location is fine.”

-Oh, no. It’s an honor if you come. But this is a garage that looks like a pig pen. A nearby coffee shop, or may I visit Earth Resources?

“Are you going to visit me on purpose?”

―It’s nearby, and I really wanted to go to the Earth Resource building because I worked hard and succeeded.

* * *

Silicon Valley software startup.

I met Dylan, a young CEO who started a business with ideas and dreams.

“It’s really an honor to meet you.”

“no. haha. I really wanted to meet you.”

Dylan arrived in jeans and a t-shirt.

I was wearing a luxury suit because it was a business meeting, but somehow I felt like an old man.

Even though he made a lot of money, he envied his youth in his 20s.

What you didn’t enjoy in your 20’s will be difficult to enjoy in your 30’s, and in your 40’s it will be even more distant.

If you ask me if I would ever go back to my 20s even if I lost all my money, I would tell you to stop talking nonsense.

“I found out that you are running a web-based graphics tool. They say that they offer limited functions to individuals for free and mainly sell them for business use.”

“There are still a lot of shortcomings, so we are working on improving it. While releasing some feature-restricted versions, it is profitable for personal use. It’s not big.”

“I see. In fact, I have contacted you for investment and business cooperation.”

“yes?”

“We plan to distribute various utilities in the Earth channel.”

I couldn’t tell you all the plans of Pangea Live

.

The Earth channel announced that it plans to distribute not only games but also utilities at low cost or free of charge.

“I am thinking of buying some stake and investing money for continuous software updates. I will not be involved in management… … .”

“I’ll do it.”

“yes?”

“The CEO is my role model. A year ago, my dream was to receive investment from the CEO.”

They say they knew my name from the time I started investing in Silicon Valley.

He invested $1.5 billion in Figma, a company run by Dylan, and received a 33% stake.

“hello. This is Kim Shin.”

“Really, really?”

Cooperation with other utility companies also went smoothly.

It’s partly because most of them are small businesses that don’t make a lot of money, but it’s all thanks to their personal reputation and the size of Earth’s resources.

“If it is distributed through the Earth channel, it will be certain.”

“yes?”

“Because my software will be used all over the world.”

“… … .”

There were people who confidently said that they would pursue a bigger dream, while others wanted to take over the entire company.

“I don’t seem to fit the constitution of a businessman. My hair is falling out every month due to the problem of paying the staff salaries and paying the rent.”

“Oops… … .”

I saw his head

At least in the front part, I didn’t have to worry about losing any more hair.

“I want to sell the company and work as an employee to protect my precious hair.”

“Hair than the company… … .”

“yes. It is much more precious.”

“Then I will take over the company.”
