Prepare for this game (3)
I left my proposal in front of me, tapping my desk like a habit.
“Well...”
Then, I looked up. In front of me is Kwon, Director Kim, and beside me is a tall, yellow-haired, blue-eyed foreigner. I told him.
“You got your proposal. ”
I'm telling you, Director Kim of Foreign Affairs translates it right away.
“I received your proposal well. ”
“I'll think about it and speak with the executives. ”
“I and the executives will think for a few more days and answer. ”
Followed by Director Kim, the white man nods. I stood up and shook his hand. I asked him.
“Where did you get the hotel? ”
“What hotel are you staying at? ”
The white man replies immediately.
“Intercontinental seoul. Next to COEX”
And again, Director Kim translates right away.
“The Intercontinental next to the Cox. ”
‘I heard that, too. ’
I thought about it and told him.
“I see. You're new to Korea, so take a break and do some sightseeing. Jongno is nice, and nearby chunks and chunks are worth checking out. ”
When he heard Director Kim's interpreter, he covered his hands and told me.
“Thank you for welcoming me. I appreciate it”
I nodded and then told Director Kim.
“When you get out, catch a cab. ”
“Yes, boss. ”
After your man left the boss' room, I came back and listened to the proposal. As always, the heart of the proposal is written on the back.
US $1,350 million.
$1.35 billion. Based on the exchange rate, it's a little over 150 trillion that we've put on the current sale of constraints. I looked at it and I thought,
‘Bigger than I thought. ’
Covering the proposal and looking at the front, you can see the logo with the word 'Pfizer’ written in the blue circle at the top left. A famous painter by the name of Viagra. One of the top 300 trillion global pharmaceutical companies in the market. I've only known this for a few weeks.
‘Representative Han Sang-hoon is great again? Contact the Invisible Two Inventory to buy flower and Hyundai Pharmaceuticals. ’
New drugs for arthritis in Hyundai Pharmaceuticals are increasingly increasing in sales in the United States, but I'm also interested because I put them on the property. Tencent, painter, future Amazon. However, the company against the fortress grew in size and cut off the ceiling. although there aren't many companies that would buy a company like a trillion won in the first place.
"Well, let's call it a little bit more. I thought it was a little bit more than 150 million dollars.
I use the pen at the top of the report.
$1.45 billion. ’
We came to 1.35 million. Then we went up to 100 million. In future news
"Han Sang-hoon's Big Bang! $1.45 Billion Sales of Construction Pharmaceuticals. ’
When news like that comes out, it goes on.
‘Hyunyoung Pharmaceutical Sale Businesses. Han Sang-hoon's proposal to translate is painstaking and obscene’
If such news comes out, I will offer compromise at 1.4 billion or I will accept at 1.35 billion. As always, it's harder than I thought to convince these global corporate buyers. Even if the market cap is millions, he doesn't like to pay 100 million more. It could have been, like, a trillion companies in the first place. In the old days,
‘The one who has more. ’
There is a saying, but the more I invest, the more I think I have to change it back and forth.
‘You have more. ’
In other words, the global financial markets are really fatigue-free and increasingly in size. $1.35 billion. In a way, it looks clean, but Painter must have given this price a lot of thought. How to satisfy the seller's heart and buy a penny cheaply.
‘Okay, let's negotiate with the Yanks. How far can you get? ’
Of course, it is I who stand in the upper hand in this negotiation. We know the news from the future. I circled 1.45 billion. But then...
"Ring, ring, ring, ring."
Alarm triggered. 5: 00. Alarm content ‘alumni gathering’. When I saw it, I woke up from my seat with the alarm off.
‘It's already 5: 00. ’
I thought about it, but I came out of the boss' room with my coat. Park's secretary stands up and bows his head. I told him.
“You know it's a reunion today, right? ”
“Oh, yeah. Boss.”
“Go downstairs and get ready. I'll be up in a minute. ”
“Yes, boss. ”
I took the elevator to the top floor. Aryoung is waiting for me at home. She asked as soon as she saw me.
“How was it, brother? ”
“What?”
“Did you have a good talk with the American? ”
I've been finding out more and more about what's going on in my company. I wasn't going to say anything, because she asked me about being "Queen of the Interior." I said dumbass.
“Then Director Kim did well for me. ”
“Hmm? So how are you going to learn English or not? ”
“I'm thinking about it. ”
“Why?”
“I'm afraid it's going to take too long to learn. Honestly, it doesn't cost me much to use a good translator. There's someone like Director Kim. ”
“But you'd better do it yourself. I'll teach you well, brother. ”
“Okay, I'll think about it. ”
I nodded and pulled out a Rolls-Royce key with two consecutive capital Rs from the car key box.
“I'll be right down, by the way. It's a little late."
“The reunion? ”
“Yes.”
“Are you sure you want to go alone? ”
“It's not okay to go alone, you have to go alone. ”
She folded her arms looking at me. Last time I said that,
Do I have to go to homecoming? As an alternate bride?
Thinking about what he said, it doesn't seem right to leave him behind. I told her.
“To be honest, we're not going to the reunion today. It's a bunch of homecoming meetings. ”
“Really? Not a reunion? ”
“Yeah. That's just what they call me. It's a reunion.”
“Really? That's weird. ”
I nodded.
“It's not that weird. It's just weird people coming together. ”
At that point, Ah-young instead sparkled.
“Yeah? That would be fun. Strange people are always funny."
I snorted.
“That's funny. They don't. They're so boring and weird."
“Yeah? But why go there? ”
“It's business. Business. I don't just want to go, either. But sometimes listening to them helps you do business. ”
“Hmm… yes. Goodbye, brother. ”
“Yes.”
I kissed her a little bit, then took the elevator down to the basement floor, parking lot. Park's secretary is waiting for me there. I threw a Rolls-Royce car key at him and said,
“Let's go.”
“Yes.”
Park's assistant holding the wheel for a moment.
"Phew!"
I took a deep breath. I saw the face of Park's assistant with the rearview mirror. He is usually the owner of a stiff face, but he seems to be a little stiffer today.
“Why are you nervous? ”
Park's assistant said honestly.
“Yes. I'm fine when I'm different. I was nervous only when I went here. ”
“Well... even if it's your third time? ”
Park's secretary
“I see. ”
I said that and drove Rolls-Royce out.

A private bar in Cheongdam-dong. It's only open on weekends to foreigners and celebrities. But today I opened the door despite my weekdays. renting out the entire building, including this one in the basement. Garden Royale. Second meeting of the year. I drank very little, very little, about a cocktail. Don't get drunk. Here, I don't open my mouth much, but my ears are open. Someone told me.
“What do you think of KJ? ”
“Seongwon Joo 6, Sogang Seop 3, Kwak Support 1. ”
“So it's roughly the same? Becoming a constable? ”
“I can't help it. Han Sang-hoon and Lee Su-won left like that, but there should be an enemy. ”
As the craftsman who sent Han Sang-hoon and Lee Su-won, I only heard it without saying anything.
“If there aren't any variables, I'll have to line up at Ju Ju's side. ”
“But he keeps talking about corporate tax increases in large business deals. Is that okay? ”
“No, you just have to get something out and not let it. Is there anything wrong with the president? Besides, it's down to four this time. Look, if you scare him around the time he's back to reelection after 1 ,2 years, it's gonna be a long one. ”
People here weren't so scared of the president either.
‘The president is four years old, and the money is forever. ’
The idea is that the president elected by the people, and even his pledge, is ridiculing, and they are not the ones I like. Nevertheless, it is necessary to listen to the story. The information that came out of this was very high-end.
If you know the future news, you need to keep a keyword or two here. I heard a story by roughly confronting their story. Then someone called me.
“One representative, by the way. ”
I looked at him. It was Gojinhee, the head of intellectual fashion, who called me.
“Why did you buy food these days? ”
At that point, the group's profit margins will also be included.
“Oh, yeah, I heard that. Why did my Midas buy that? How many times is that again? ”
Those who lead large businesses in my country have no sense of the impending crisis. However, no matter how many people were in the tower, my country was still just a servant in the global economy. I mean, I didn't know everything that was coming. I thought for a moment.
‘How many people knew about this in advance. Probably the head of American politics. a few people at the top of that, and lobbying those politicians. A conspiracy theory of Jewish capitalism. ’
I just said with a smile.
“It's delicious. Vigora dumplings. Have you tried it?”
Ko Jinhee shakes her head.
“No.”
Of course, I was born a princess, but I don't think I've ever eaten frozen dumplings.
“It's delicious for a price. It's easy to cook, so it's popular with college students and people on the trail. Maybe they'll sell more if they go to China or Southeast Asia. ”
Ko Jinhee nods.
“Oh, right. I should call housewife and try it. ”
Heo Jun Ik admires and says.
“As expected, Representative Han Sang-hoon knows what people like about being from. You're amazing!”
He said something he didn't know whether to compliment or ignore.
It's a compliment, if you ask me.
I had a rough idea of the nature of the next CEOs as it was my third time attending. These people were essentially thinking of themselves as a different noble from the common people, and they did not pursue the idea that it was a problem. That's why I didn't think it was a big deal that I was from another country. Except for one. After a while, someone said to my ear,
“Flow in. He's doing it because he doesn't know it. ”
I looked up. It was the other side of the table for Yeon-su Group, cousin of Takjugi.
