After 12 Hours

Investment firms that never lose (2)

“Deceiver! ”

Ji-hoon stared at me with a glance. I raised my hands and told Ji-hoon.

“Listen to me, Ji-hoon. ”

However, Ji-hoon did not calm his excitement.

“You don't remember how many of us were there, so we gave up? ”

Why can't I forget that? I answered him.

“50 million won.”

“Yes, 50 million won. You gave up on the idea because you didn't have 50 million won! ”

“Yes, yes...”

Ji-hoon pointed to the expensive things in my room.

“What is this? What about that chair? Those things on that desk are worth 10 million won. ”

I understand he's angry. We gave up our dreams for money back then.

“No, Ji-hoon. You know what my parents do. And you came to our house. Don't you remember? I'm a pureblood dirt bag. ”

When I bring up the old story, Ji Hoon's excitement only lets me go.

“Oh... that's... that's... right...”

Ji Hoon used to come to my house on vacation. He ate at my house for a little over 30 square feet, got in an old local car, and my father's car.

“So this is... what? What the hell?”

I quickly rolled my head.

‘What can I say. Can we just be honest? ’

At that time, Ji-hoon suddenly opened his eyes wide.

“Bro... really...? ”

You can't be what? ’

“Did you coin it? ”

That's an unexpected question. But I don't think it would be a bad idea to go to this story. At the fifth lottery, it might be a little hard to believe that the stock was raised.

“Oh... right... right. I bought coins. In the early days.”

I made up a story I saw somewhere on the Internet as I remembered it.

“One of my high school alumni is a computer guy... and he asked me to buy some bitcoins before I go into the army, in case I get freaked out later. I was on my way to the army. I tried to join the army after I drank a lot of Albany, but I only had 30,000 won left in my account... so I bought it. ”

“So?”

“And I forgot. Of course, I didn't remember when I was in the army, and I was busy getting out and going back to school. I forgot, but I just found out on the news that it was Bitcoin. So I looked at the old computers, and there they were, these bitcoins...”

“Huh...”

Ji-hoon held out his tongue as if he didn't believe it. I raised my hands and pointed to my officetel.

“I sold it a while ago. The result is this officetel. ”

Ji-hoon looked at me for a moment.

“Brother...”

“Huh?”

I screamed.

“Great! Really!”

I thought to myself:

‘I knew I was good enough to call him. ’

Ji Hoon was a really pure and good boy until now. I personally think I need to see a drunk to see a man's naked face. He used to drink alcohol with me every day in college, every time.

‘My brother, let's put our lives on the line. We can do this. ’

‘My brother and my parents can't help me beyond the university. I'm sorry.'

Last time you went to your brother's house... your sister was pretty. ’

I tend to speak up about the truth like that. It was far from subtlety and sophistication, but it was originally a great guy. Our school was traditionally more literary than Higua, and Ji Hoon was the one who always held the tower at the gate and the middle of the tower management department. Even the startup club we met always stood out with amazing ideas and knowledge. Basically, I don't have any money.

“So how have you been? I heard you were working somewhere last time."

“I... I finally started a business. ”

“Really?"

“With your startup, you get people invested around you. ”

“But at that time, the idea was something you couldn't tell anyone. ”

The item we were trying to create was an item that was meaningless the moment we spoke to someone. So I couldn't get an investment. In this industry, investors often abandon their ideas.

“But... I just got invested in my educational and entrepreneurial activities. It was a small amount.”

“So.”

“By the way... do you know Mawith? ”

“Oh... I think I've heard of it. ”

MAWIT was a start-up professional investor created by a large company.

“I don't know where the information came from... but they started exactly the same thing as our business. With more capital. Of course we were pushed. We... didn't have any money. ”

“Well...”

Ji-hoon lowers his head.

“So, in a word, I'm screwed. Actually, I'm going to work today, but the last developer said he was out of a month's salary, so I scraped the rest of the money out of my account and sent it to him. ”

I knocked him on the shoulder and said,

“It's okay. If I fail this time and try again...”

“But it's not easy. Especially in my country's startup... if another country fails once, he fails again, and he'll do well next time. If my country fails once again, he will fail again. So I was actually going to call my brother. Not today. Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow? ”

“Why?”

“Why? Why? I was trying to get a job because my brother interviewed me first and got a job. I was going to ask you that. But... I didn't expect you to bring trash to Gangnam Station...”

I nodded.

“Yes... I see...”

While I was robbing the company, he was working hard. The only difference is, I've been incredibly lucky. I tapped Ji-hoon on the shoulder and said,

“But don't be so depressed. I'll be your new investor. ”

“Yes?”

“Literally. I know you. You were supposed to be successful. Besides, you're gonna do better now that you failed once. ”

Ji-hoon widened his eyes and looked at me.

“Bro, thank you for saying that! Brother!”

Ji-hoon acted like he was crying to me. I talked his back out of it.

“Yes, yes. Instead, I have a favor to ask you. ”

“What is that? Just tell me, and I'll help you out. ”

“Okay, great. Let's go out and talk about it over dinner. ”

“Yes!”

Eventually, we decided to regroup. I dressed appropriately and walked out the door with Ji-hoon. I stood in front of the elevator, pressed the drop button, and waited for a moment.

“Brother, how did you get in here? ”

“Well, I picked the best spot. This is where I like it."

“I see...”

But it was then. With the elevator door open, a beauty in a black dress appeared. Other people next door. This is Ia-young, the landlord. I greeted her first.

“Hello."

And when she saw me and Ji-hoon,

“Oh, hello. ”

He greeted us with a slightly sagging tone and passed us by. As it passes by us, it smells like something pale with the smell of perfume.

Have you been drinking wine somewhere? ’

I got in the elevator thinking that. I pressed the first floor and waited for the elevator to close. However, as soon as the elevator door closed, Ji-hoon waved his sheep's fists again.

“Wow, who's that guy? You know?”

“Oh, why? ”

“So beautiful...”

“Oh... right. I was so surprised when I first saw him. It's pretty. It's... dodgy. ”

“Looks like there's a pretty girl like that around here. You're so... rich now. Really. Celebrities and neighbors.”

I shaken my head and said:

“He's not a celebrity. ”

“Well... I guess I could be a celebrity. ”

“I searched, but I'm not a celebrity. It's just the landlord. That's him. I live on rent from him, too. ”

“On rent?”

Ji-hoon looked at me with a slightly disappointed glance.

“Oh... the rent is great... let's go talk. ”

Ji-hoon said, turning the cooked meat upside down.

“So you want to set up an investment company. ”

“Yes, a company that aims to merge other acquisitions. ”

“If that's the case, there's stock in the pack or something. ”

I said, "I know, but I want to start a company like that that that will continue to grow, invest, and lead many other companies in the long run, you know? I want you to do it for me. ”

“That's all I can do. I've already set up a company once. By the way, how rich are you? ”

What exactly is my asset worth? The money in this account is about 89 billion, but it was more than 10 billion dollars a week anyway. In fact, my biggest asset was a position called Platinum Rank Subscriber 12 hours later, rather than money. When I didn't answer, Ji-hoon started calculating by himself.

“You met me after school for a while, so you enlisted... if you want 30 grand worth of bitcoin...”

“No, just know you're roughly rich. ”

I lifted the soju cup to prevent him from calculating.

Boom.

We took a shot, no matter what, just like back in school. Our founding club inherited the old-school club style until we hit the glass, so it was definitely a shot.

“Khh...”

We filled each other's empty glasses. Drinking like this reminds me of the old days. At that time,

We're gonna be Steve Jobs, Bill Gates.

When I had no money and only my dreams. Since then we've all tasted bitterness in reality, but now we don't have to. I now have the power to make my dreams come true. But I was. Ji-hoon said carefully to me, without even touching his favorite meat.

“But I like doing this...”

“I like it.”

“Now that my parents have asked me to get a job... I'm a little worried. I've been living without income for quite some time. ”

‘Ah, that's the story. ’

I heard one word and understood Ji-hoon's situation in a heartbeat. But at the same time, Ji-hoon realized that he didn't fully understand my situation. I raised my glass and said,

“Hey, that's enough. You're worried about some money in front of me. I'll give you your salary. ”

“Really?"

“Yes, you don't have to worry about a job. Get paid by me. Um... could I have... 500? ”

Ji-hoon's eyes widen in my words.

“500?”

Ji-hoon's hand, holding the soju glass, trembles slightly. I put my glass slightly ‘salty’ in the trembling glass.

“Yes, I'll give you that much. Work hard.”

Ji-hoon said in a slightly impressive voice.

“Brother. No, sir. I will be loyal in the future. Brother”
