As soon as Choi Ki-chul entered the meeting, he felt a different atmosphere. There was no focus under the name oceans. And he reached out to himself and put his eyes on a man who held out his hand. A man who knows his own name.
Rain star.
He gives you a big smile and extends his hand. Choi Ki-chul had to hold hands. He knew too well what he was going to look like to them if he didn't. Choi Ki-chul opened his mouth.
"It's been a while."
"Haha, yes. I wanted to say hi, but I didn't have a chance. Jinseop and the three of us need a drink."
"I heard his brother knows about it in Comb Maine. It's where you trade coconuts."
The dominant smile became deeper.
"Cryptocurrency exchanges, to be exact. Please feel free to contact us if you are interested. It's always open."
The dominant casts a little bait. Choi Ki-chul was also given the special status of friendship with dominance from the very beginning. There was no reason to refuse.
"Do you mind if I take a closer look?"
Yooseong nodded and took Choi Ki-chul into the locker room. Everyone saw Choi Ki-chul with jealous eyes.
Choi Ki-chul took him to the locker room and gave him a drink first. Yooseong lifted the bottle and Choi Ki-chul lifted the cup.
"I heard you're in charge of ocean appliances. I think we have a lot of work to do."
"We're talking about Android TV if we don't. If you do that, you'll have to put an app on it, and you might need coconut help."
"I know the oceans are working on their own project called Ocean OS, but have you adopted Android TV?"
"There are still many possibilities at stake, so nothing has been decided."
Okay conversation.
He felt a sense of otherness. Did you know Choi Ki-chul was like this?
No, it's not.
I could have sworn.
It was specialized in deceiving people with snake-like smooth tongues and cunning. But I couldn't find it.
'What, what made you change so much?'
Only now. He was in a slightly passive position rather than actively participating in the conversation. It was distinct from the future.
"Aren't you having a hard time?"
"Haha, it's me. because everyone's doing it downstairs."
"Of course, there are many talented people in the ocean, so I envy them."
"I think it's nothing compared to a coconut."
You had to ask a question to get an answer. It was clear that something happened to Choi Ki-chul.
‘Cause he used to lead the conversation. ’
He searched hard for memories, but there were no particularly related events.
'Something shocking has to happen in order for a person to change that much.'
That's not how it went in the press?
It smells very secret, very secret, and hideous. Choi Ki-chul asked the dominant who was in mind.
"Can we hear more about the cryptocurrency?"
The dominant speeds out his thoughts and opens his mouth.
"In order to know that, you first need to know about the blockchain, which is · · · · · · · ·."
He deliberately followed a detailed description with a mathematical formula in his Bitcoin paper as an example. Twenty minutes later, I tried to yawn, blinking my eyes, explaining the algorithm in the paper, such as voluntary walking and gambler bankruptcy. He paused and said.
"This technology will be one of the trends in the future."
"It's hard to tell a detailed technical story about whether I'm door-to-door or native."
The dominant nods.
"I understand enough. But remember, the only way to take the lead in technology is to take the lead. “
When he explained with a serious look, Choi Ki-chul frowned.
‘Learn about the blockchain very slowly and make sure that when Bitcoin reaches its peak it invests all its assets. ’
It was a picture of a dominant figure. To do that, today's explanation was enough.
“That's it for today?"
Choi Ki-chul quickly nodded at the dominant. Otherwise, my butt was moving from the moment the story started.
"Yes."
Choi Ki-chul and Yooseong who got up from their seats came out of the room, and the eyes of the people at the banquet hall were again drawn to him.
Shin Semi's gaze continued to follow him. Talking to others did not go well.
'What are you talking about?
I couldn't seem to hate the way he came out of the conversation. How can you not pretend to know yourself even after attending a meeting?
Who introduced you to this meeting?
This time, Lee Sung-hyun grabbed the dominant and went into the locker room. Everyone seemed eager to talk to dominance.
After several minutes, I walked out with Lee Sung-hyun. Immediately, another group of people approached him. People constantly flocked to the side of the dominant star. His mouth felt dry, so he tasted it. I was so nervous that I couldn't do anything. When he tried to approach the dominant who was talking, he left his seat first, opened the gate and left. The seminar bit my lips tightly.

Choi Ki-chul, who met with Woong, got into the car.
"Nonhyeon."
In a word, the car starts on Axel. Choi Ki-chul, who was in the back seat and staring at the street, looked in his pocket.
Burr.
My phone was vibrating. According to the number, Tae Min Choi's secretary.
Do you think you are the equivalent of the Chief of Staff?
I felt bad, but got a call. Otherwise, there was greater retaliation awaiting.
"Hello, I'm the Chief of Staff."
I was voiced. Choi Ki-chul, who was in a bad mood, answered bluntly.
"Why."
"Open the back seat cabinet and you'll find a bag. You can use it today when you meet with Chairman Choi."
"What the fuck is he talking about?"
Moment.
The car stopped while pressing the brake with a 'yawn' sound.
"Can't you drive straight?"
Choi Ki-chul slapped the driver's seat with his right foot. But in the driver's seat, there was no movement, no reaction. The secretary's voice on the other side of the phone deepened.
"The moment of choice has come. The future depends on who you choose. The way to use it is simple. Tell them it's a new drug. Mr. Choi likes his medicine. It's not yesterday's work."
Static.
Silence continued beyond the phone and inside the driver's seat.
"The backing will be clean. As you've experienced so far, you know what happens when you pick a madman who's on the pill."
"What about you?"
"We're here for you. Don't worry, now's your chance to get in the last car. The world will be different tomorrow."
Choi Ki-chul swallowed a dry saliva.
By choice.
The current choice is captivated by a strong gut feeling that will decide his life in the future.

The next day.
The world has been noisy since morning.
The President of the Ocean Group has had a stroke and is currently hospitalized in Seoul Ocean Hospital.
The oceanic group is not embarrassed by the fact that the succession level has not yet been established, and Vice Chairman Choi Tae-min is guarding the hospital room overnight and looking directly at his father's health.
He woke up in the morning and felt it as soon as he saw the news.
"Is it because of this case that Choi Ki-chul changed?"
It was an event that he remembered. And that's what's gonna happen in the next two years. Then two years later, something happened. Something unexpected is happening.
"But what does this have to do with Choi Ki-chul's change?"
Yooseong called Choi Ki-tae just in case. I just changed the dial tone and didn't answer the phone. This time, I tried calling Choi Ki-chul.
Tyrie.
Sweet.
As soon as I got the call, Yooseong said.
"This is Kangwoosung. I'm calling to report the news."
"What's going on?"
"To comfort you · · · · · · · · ·."
"That's okay. I'm busy, then."
And then boom.
The phone is disconnected. In that short call, dominance can be felt.
"I'm sure his voice was trembling."
It was clear that something was happening in a place he did not know.
Choi Ki-chul, who hung up on me, was surprised by his callousness. Rather, I felt liberated from the feeling that the heavy chains had been broken.
"Son of a bitch, it's nothing."
Nonhyeon Assault Bow.
Where Ji-tae used to take his medicine all the time.
There was no end to this place. The masked vigilantes shut up and disappeared somewhere.
And the news of the biggest stroke since morning.
Sae Sam Choi Tae-min's mobility and readiness made his tongue stick out.
"Then why did I leave it?"
I stayed in Nonhyeon Abang Palace, where Choi disappeared, and I rolled my head hard.
"Why is it so awkward when three people disappear? In case it later turns out that Choi Tae Tae Joon or Choi Gun Woon's work was intentional?"
I thought about it all night, but the conclusion was always the latter.
"No one knows what happened to Choi Ki-tae yet. Maybe I'm thinking of finishing the job and spreading it · · · I'm a type of insurance."
But I have no regrets. I don't know what would have happened to Choi Ki-tae who was drugged if I had stayed still.
"You mean you can do whatever you want until then."
Choi Ki-chul, who had organized his thoughts, got up on his feet. I felt like I woke up from an egg.

Executive Office of Choi Tae-min, Ocean Electronics.
Choi Tae Min was having a secret conversation with the secretary.
"It's from Nonhyeon."
"If he had an idea, he'd be on his own."
"What should I do about President Choi?"
"A few days later, the usual drug-addicted man does not overcome the grief of his father's work, and uses more drugs to report that he has been brain-dead."
"I understand."
"How are the board preparations going?"
"Everyone's feeling different. There's nothing wrong with being called Chairman."
"Start with the prepared will and spread the word quietly. Don't make it official."
"I understand."
Choi Tae-min got up and walked to the window. At first glance, the view of downtown Gangnam was truly impressive.
However, everyday life is familiar to Tae Min Choi.
"Find someone to sit with, and ask Ki-chul if he needs anything. He's quick to notice, so he won't talk too much."
Choi Tae-min said.
"And I want my first business to be a mobile business since I became president."
"I'll be prepared."
"It wouldn't be bad to show the power of the ocean at this opportunity. What is the difference between a company that is less than three years old and a company that has decades of tradition?"
Chief of Staff nodded at Choi Tae Min's words and left the office.
