Chapter 51

Soon after, Jajangmyeon, jjambbong, fried rice, and sweet and sour pork arrived.

The delivery man said looking around the cluttered office.

“Looks like you moved. I will give you a lot of service, so please do it often.”

“Yes.”

We sat around an empty desk and ate jajangmyeon and jjamppong. I eat it in a hurry, so it goes straight in. Also, Chinese food is delicious.

“Did you buy a house?”

“Now we have to save it.”

“Then where have you been?”

Senior Sangyeop pointed to the folding bed on one side.

“We ate and slept here.”

“Are you washing?”

“There is a jjimjilbang in the building opposite.”

“·················ogue.”

I felt it when I saw him at school, but this person has a homelessness mindset. She seems to live well wherever she throws it.

“Now we have to hire staff.”

“Anyway, seniors introduced me to a few people. The urgent work has been completed, so I have to go to the interview soon.”

Here, seniority means Hyunjoo’s older sister.

While we met and invested in foreign startups at a hotel in Yeongjongdo, Sangyeop senior worked hard with her Golden Gate employees to meet domestic startups.

She couldn’t find a house or people because she was so busy working. Now that she can afford it, she’ll have to do it one by one.

Sangyeop said as if he had remembered something.

“Ah! Do you know Jung Gi-hong?”

“Are you Ki-hong? As a senior in the department, of course I know. I’ve seen her once before.”

She was a member of the real-life Ari family, so Sangyeop Ra was also close to senior Ki Hong. Kihong senior graduated first, but Sangyeop senior is one year ahead of her class number.

“He’s a white man now.”

“Ok?”

I quit KYB Securities and looked for PEF, but it seems that it didn’t work out. After all, finding a job these days is not easy.

“I got a call a few days ago. She said she was looking for a job, so I wanted to meet her.”

“Are you going to hire K Company?”

Senior Sangyeop said jokingly.

“Let’s talk first. Do you want to go to an interview?”

If I sit down with Ki-hong senior and I sit as the interviewer, it will be worth seeing. Shall we put the seniors who couldn’t get a job at all in a row and have an interview?

This is job creation and creative economy.

I waved my hands.

“Your senior will take care of it.”

Unlike her reliable senior Sang-yeop, Ki-hong is famous for her soft mouth. When she turns on the faucet, the secret of a secret pours out like water when she only has one drink.

If we look at the sources of all the rumors that have spread within the school, more than half of them are Jung Ki-hong.

“If I do the interview, the word will spread throughout the school the next day.”

Senior Sangyeop nodded her head as if sympathizing with her.

“That’s right. Either way, we need to hire an employee asap. Then I will die first.”

Now that I see her, her face is crumbly and her eyes are open. I also seem to have lost some weight.

“Are you sleeping well?”

At my question, Sangyeop took a deep breath.

“Then I slept very well, three hours a day.”

I laughed bitterly.

“That’s good enough.”

Taegyu said.

“I heard that my older sister also wanted to get a good night’s sleep for several years after joining Golden Gate.”

The financial sector is the problem.

What do you do when you make money? I’d be dead before I even wrote it.

After we finished eating, we put the empty bowls outside, and Sang-yeop senior boiled water and served mixed coffee.

“First of all, I need to pick up the accountants quickly. From ballpoint pens to coffee mixes, whenever I need them, I go to the mart to buy them.”

It’s hard to start with anything.

After we finished our coffee, we started talking about serious work.

Hyun-joo’s sister posted a list of companies invested by OTK Company on the public cloud. And Sangyeop senior also compiled a list of domestic companies that K Company has invested in.

Regardless of which investment has been made, receiving, analyzing, and managing the management report is what K Company should do in the future.

“I’ve been wondering for a while, what was the criteria for choosing these companies?”

These are companies that do not have anything in common, such as nationality, industry, and type of business. There are businesses that immediately feel like a jackpot when they hear about them, while others question whether this is really possible.

“They are drawn by rolling dice.”

Senior Sangyeop had an absurd expression on his face.

“Really?”

“just joke. We only selected companies that we thought have the potential to grow in the future. If only 10% of these were successful, it would be great.”

“It is.”

Investing in early start-ups is 10 times the default if successful, and it is not strange if it comes out 10,000 times or more.

“How much money do you have left?”

“6.7 billion.”

Since the capital was 70 billion won, more than 90% was spent on startup investment. Still, there are 6.7 billion left.

Of this, about 1 billion should be used for labor costs and operating expenses for future employees.

Senior Sangyeop asked gently.

“Can I invest the rest of the money?”

“Is there something you want to invest in?”

He nodded as if waiting for my question.

“I’ve seen a few.”

Although he looks dull in appearance, he is a person with an animalistic sense of investment. Looking at his face, he seems to have already seized a good opportunity.

“Do whatever you want to do. As long as it doesn’t interfere with the company’s operation, I won’t say anything even if I eat it moderately.

Senior Sangyeop was delighted.

“Really? There is nothing else to say later.”

She must have been itching because she couldn’t do what she wanted to do. She doesn’t know how she endured all this time.

* * *

After returning home, we rested leisurely.

The big investment is over, and the balance is almost exhausted, so there is nothing to do.

A few days later, Hyun-joo’s sister contacted me.

[Negotiation with Eunseong Cha is over.]

“How much?”

[$88 million. Now Karos is owned by OTK Company.]

“You worked hard, sister.”

I called for joy inside.

You won’t know a contract until you put a stamp on it. I was worried about what was going to happen throughout the negotiation, but luckily it turned out well.

The first call was $100 million, so that’s a 12% cut. From the perspective of Eunsung Motors, it seems like they wanted to dispose of it quickly and get rid of it.

Can’t they imagine that the company they sold at a bargain price will change the world in the future?

A voice came from behind.

[Jinhoo? Please change me.]

After a while, the voice changed.

[Hey, Jinhoo. I’m doing well?]

It was Ellie.

“Yes. How about Ellie?”

[This is no fun. It’s all just men in suits. It was fun working with Jinhoo.]

“Me too.”

[(Meeting time is up, Ellie) Oh, okay. Then I will contact you next time.]

I hung up.

Also, the workers are busy. Senior Sangyeop was also busy working to fill the office interior.

It’s so idle that only the two of us yawned.

This time I got a call saying that the car was shipped. Dealer Doyun Kim came to the front of the house with a consignment driver and handed us the keys.

In the garage of the house, a gray 7-series and a blue i8 were lined up side by side along with Oh Taek-gyu.

While the 7-series was in stock, the i8 had to wait about a month, but the contract was cancelled.



It was a protonic blue color, not the crystal white that I first signed up for, but Taek-gyu said he didn’t mind, and thanks to that, I was able to receive it right away.

To my eyes, blue looks much better than white. I don’t know if it’s a sedan or a sports car, but these colors go well together

We followed the dealer’s instructions to inspect the car and then sign the paperwork.

“Thank you for the good relationship. If you need it or have any questions, please feel free to contact us.”

“Look.”

Taek-gyu looked at the parked cars and asked.

“What are you going to ride?”

It’s hard to ride more than two people on the i8.

I tapped the bonnet of the 7 Series by hand.

“Of course I have to ride this.”

* * *

By the time her mother arrived at her home, her moving packages were almost finished. She didn’t even have much luggage anyway.

“We are here, Mother.”

“Taek-gyu is also here.”

Mother welcomed us warmly. Perhaps because of the thought of moving to her original home, she did not hide her mother’s happy expression.

Moving center staff loaded the packed luggage into trucks.

The house I had lived in for a while was put up on real estate again. It’s better if you leave early, or you can get it back on the contract expiration date.

“Then I’ll see you at the destination.”

The truck carrying the moving goods departed first.

“We are leaving too.”

Beep!

When I pressed the remote control key, the light on the 7 series came on. My mother was startled to see the huge sedan standing in the parking lot.

“What is this car?”

I said with a smile.

“It’s a moving anniversary gift. I bought one for my mother, Tassi.”

This is the reason I chose the 7 Series.

In the past, our car was a Cavalus, a super-large sedan from Eunsung Motors. My mother often drives when my father is not in the car, so I am used to driving a large sedan.

There is nothing better than a large sedan when you consider the external image and safety.

“Hey, you bought this after you wore it?”

“Yes. The house is not far from the subway station. I need a car to go shopping and play.”

“Still, what kind of foreign car does this cost?”

“I bought it at a discount. Don’t worry, I have a lot of money.”

Actually, I didn’t have any money, so I borrowed it from OTK Capital and bought it.

“Ride.”

I took the steering wheel, Taek-gyu sat in the passenger seat, and my mother sat in the back seat.

I started the car. Mother muttered naggingly as she looked around and looked around her room.

“Why are you buying such an expensive car? You can just buy a suitable domestic used car. If he’s going to buy it, talk to his mother in advance. Foreign cars cost a lot to maintain.”

Even if she says it like this, it seems like she really likes it.

“I like BMW, though. It’s quiet and the seats are soft.”

Taek-gyu said to her mother.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“I have a present for you too.”

“Huh? What other gifts?”

“Fufu. To expect.”

We drove about an hour and arrived at Dongtan’s house.

The Dongtan house, which had been completely repaired and decorated, had all kinds of home appliances, including TVs, refrigerators, and washing machines.

Just like last time, I went to Seoseong Digital Plaza and did a sweeping shopping with the best products. The amount of tens of millions of won was paid by Taek-gyu.

“This is my moving present, Mother.”

The mother looked in disbelief.

“I don’t know what the hell this is.”

While her staff moved the items, her mother rejoiced like a child as her mother looked around her house and touched appliances.

“I didn’t buy furniture on purpose, so order according to your taste.”

After the move is finished.

We ate at a nearby family restaurant.

“How are you doing?”

“It is somewhat finished. So that’s what I mean…”

I told my mother her future plans.

“I plan to study with Taek-gyu for about a year.”

* * *

Investment in startups found by Yeji has ended, and OTK Company’s balance has bottomed out. For the time being, I have nothing to do.

Originally, I thought about going back to school after spending some time. However, I have changed my mind a bit over the years.

Through this investment, I met young entrepreneurs from various countries. Beyond just making big bucks, they had dreams and clear goals.

And watching Hyun-joo’s sister and Ellie work from the sidelines, I realized that the financial industry is a tough place.

The world is much bigger than we think. There is a lot to learn, a lot to know.

“I need to learn more English.”

“You speak English well.”

“it is not so.”

Of course, from his point of view, he could see it that way, but because he was taught English for the SAT and TOEIC, his vocabulary was clearly limited.

In order to do business, you need to learn a little better.

“And you have to learn too.”

Taehyung was surprised.

“Why me? You can do it.”

“How long will I be able to interpret? And you have to think when you are alone.”

“What do you like to learn?”

“It will be comfortable when playing games.”

“·················ogue.”

If you don’t know anything else, you have to learn English. It would be nice to learn Chinese or Spanish, but neither of us can afford that.

“Let’s check with our own eyes how the world and finance will work over the next year.”

“Can’t you just travel or study by yourself and play games at home?”

“Huh. No. Pack your luggage.”
