I attended the English academy three times a week.
A man was supposed to be more enthusiastic if he needed it.
I studied harder than other students.
A woman in her 40s said she graduated from Seoul National University, but her English conversation was not very good.
It seemed so because I had been hanging on to the lyrics for a long time. He was very envious of me.
"Mr. Choi speaks English very well. Where did you go to college?"
I was a bit embarrassed to say it, but I said it proudly.
"I went to OOO University in South Chungcheong Province."
"Was there such a school? But are you that good?"
"I took some online classes."
At the academy, a young man in his 20s, who is about to study abroad, did the best.
Once he heard that he was smart, he didn't forget and used it well.
He also went to the U.S. as an exchange student when he was in school. Maybe that's why his pronunciation was excellent.
I didn't know why such a good-level person came to our class.
One day this young man tapped me with a ballpoint pen.
"You said you were with a private fund company, right? What kind of stocks do you like these days?"
"Well."
"Can you recommend one?”
"We invest primarily in stocks that are to be listed."
"I majored in business administration, and I had one last time as a political theme drink."
"Oh, really?"
"When I was in college, I ran a stock club with my business students and I had the best returns."
"Is that so?"
"Keekyl, I usually ate 2 million won this time."
The lady next to me envied me.
"Oh, oh, oh, two million won? I envy you! I spent 10 million won on my husband's secret last time and forgot!"
"Not everyone can giggle. Mr. Choi here doesn't even know if he has a private equity fund! You have to study stocks a lot. You need to know how to look at the charts."
I had a feeling in my mind that this guy was full of energy after earning two million won.
It occurred to me that this guy was taking the lead in front of the pupa.
[You bastard! I now have 25.9 billion won in stock!]
A man named G Group vice president asked me.
"Oh, by the way. You said you were in a private equity firm, right?”
"Yes, it is,"
"Is that more than 500 million won when customers invest there?"”
"Yes."
Next to her, the old lady was surprised.
"Oh, so many?”
Young people in their 20s also blinked when general investors said they invested 500 million won.
Because he thought it was a lot of money.
G Electronics vice president said.
"It's hard to invest unless you're a very wealthy person."
"That's why the government seems to be trying to lower the investment. I don't think it's going down to 300 million."
300 million won is too much. We should either lower it to 100 million won. How can ordinary people like us invest?"
I was disgusted to say that G Electronics' vice president would get a lot of salary, but he was a commoner like us.
G Electronics vice president said, suddenly reaching out his right hand.
"Give me your business card!"
I gave you the business card of CEO of JS Invest.
"Oh, you're the CEO!"
The vice president of G Electronics seemed to have never dreamed that I was a CEO because I was young.
After receiving the CEO's business card, he also gave me his business card.
It was Kwak Il-do, vice president of G Electronics.
The old lady cut in.
"Give me a business card, too!"
I also gave my business card to my aunt.
"Hohoho, I don't have a business card. My name is Ahn Soon-ae."
The vice president of G Electronics joked.
"An Soon-ae? You mean she's not gentle?"
"No comfort, no gentle, no love, no love!"
I only gave business cards to two people and gave them to a young man in his twenties because I couldn't help but give them to a man in his twenties.
This guy's laughter disappeared at the sound of me being the CEO. I got the business card I gave me with both hands.
The young man introduced himself.
"My name is Do Jeong-han."
If he had money and a social title, he would have been treated like this even if he had left the Jijapdae.
G Electronics Vice President fiddled with the business card I gave him.
"Then how much assets does JS Invest have? I don't know if it's rude to ask this.”
"There's no disrespect. We have about 30 billion."
"30 billion? Ho, that's great!"
said the old lady.
"Omana! How much is 30 billion? Isn't the 50,000 won bill longer than the Han River Bridge?"
A young man named Do Jeong-han said, "I was surprised by the sound of 30 billion won and only put my glasses up and down."
After that day, Do-jeong was very good to me.
He bought canned coffee and gave it to me, and even if I dropped a pen from my desk, he picked it up first and gave it to me.
He received an unexpected phone call on the day he went to an English academy without trading stocks.
I received it because it was not a commercial call because it was a cell phone call.
"Hello, Mr. Choi?"
It was the voice of a woman with a very good voice.
I thought it was a call center because my voice was so good.
"Where are you?"
"I'm KBS announcer Park Un-young."
"Bar, Park Un-young!"
I thought my heart would be great with this sudden phone call.
"I was angry to ask you something."
"Yes, ma'am, please.
"Do they invest in unlisted companies, not stocks or bonds?”
"Are you going to be listed?”
"No, it's a small company. It is a drama production company that my friend does. I'd like to get funding for the production cost of production.”
Unless it is a listed company, Chang will flatly refuse to invest.
Even so, some venture companies and new companies called to ask for investment due to the lack of funds.
Then, both Chang and his company employees refuse.
I also asked these companies to refuse when they get a call.
But I couldn't refuse Park Un-young's call. What kind of opportunity is this?
"Well, for now, we need to analyze the company's condition."
"Then let me introduce you to a friend of the drama's production company. Would that be all right?
"I'm fine. It's my business."
"Well, I'll see you then. Which coffee shop would you like to meet at?"
"Gee, what do you think of Conrad Hotel Italy, where you met lawyer Oh Mi-hyang last time?"
"It's not a coffee shop, it's a meal, isn't it?"
"I'll treat you to a meal. Ooh, it's our business."
"Hohoho, I got it. How about Friday evening at 6 p.m.?
"Okay, I'll be waiting."
I hang up and yay! exclaimed at
[Park Un-young called me!]
I felt like I was about to lose my temper.
I almost fell down while flapping.
I saved the phone number I just got on my cell phone.
And I entered the contact name Park Unyeong Ana.
From this day on, I was full and didn't know I was tired. Conversation seemed to work better at the English Conversation Academy.
I can't wait to see Friday.
However, Park Un-young's sudden meeting with me was suspicious, and introducing a drama producer was also a burden.
"Maybe you're asking us to over-fund the production cost? You don't want to meet me because you like me. "Entertainment business like drama is an up and down industry..."
I was well aware of a case in which a producer named Kim Jong-hak committed suicide while working on a drama production. When I was young, how hard did my dad and mom watch the drama produced by Kim Jong-hak?
When I was with Chang, I asked him about the drama production company.
When I met Park Un-young and his friend's drama producer on Friday, I thought I would know the basics.
"I'll ask you something, Deputy General. According to Song's daily investment report one day, there was a drama production company in the investment portfolio of the company to be listed.”
"Maybe, there was."
"How are the drama production companies doing?”
"It's going to be a hit if you know."
"What about the companies that are already listed?"
"The companies that are already listed will do well if they get a hit. But why? Are you going to invest in a drama production company?”
"I'm just asking you once."
"The drama production company has ups and downs. Director Song studied a lot about the drama production company. Shall I sing it?"
"Sure."
Deputy General Manager Chang opened the door of the president's office and called Director Song.
Manager Song came into the president's office with a puzzled look on his face.
"I heard you know a lot about drama production companies."
"I don't know. I studied a little bit because I like dramas. I was in a theater club when I was in college."
Chang asked Song.
"I saw last month that Samhwa Networks, a drama production company, reported it for 52 weeks. Why is that?"
"Oh, it's because of the drama 'Uncontrollably Lovely,' which was made after the Descendants of the Sun. The drama also features my favorite actress Suzy. I think that's what got me out of it."
"I think it's falling out now.”
"The drama airs simultaneously in Korea and China. The production cost was 10 billion won't But the ratings aren't as good as you expected. I'm still enjoying it."
"Really? I'll have to see that, too. When is it airing?”
"It's an arbor drama."
"What's the content?"
"It's a heartwarming love story between a man and a woman who broke up with a heartbreaking bad relationship when they were young and meet again later."
"Ay, then I don't watch. Am I in the military to talk about love like that? My mother will love it.”
"Samhwa Networks' share price went up from 2,500 won to 3,500 won. So I was going to suggest investing money in a unique account run by Jung."
"Why, you should have told me."
"To be honest, I wasn't confident. Wasn't that when our own account funds were invested in Maniker and Harim, Samgyetang's staple food? So I couldn't. Also, it was hard to recommend dramas because of ups and downs. I was going to recommend it."
I cut in because I thought the story was a little off.
"What's the status of drama production companies and unlisted companies?"
"It's in our investment portfolio, so I'm sure Mr. Chang next door knows. AceTory posted 23.1 billion sales last year, and Kim Productions posted 29.5 billion."
"Well, is that so?“
Chang asked Song.
"What's the company that made that place? I think I heard it from Song once, but I forgot."
"Astory is the company that created 'Medical Top Team' and Lee Kim Productions is the company that produced 'The Empress.'
"Really? I don't really watch dramas, so I don't know.”
I asked.
"There are many difficult companies for drama production companies, right?”
"Isn't that right? It's funded, but it's ruined if the drama doesn't come out. Would a master producer like Kim Jong-hak, who made hits like 'Sandglass' and 'Flohaus,' have committed suicide for money?"
"How much does it cost to make a single drama?”
"Well, I'm not sure about that. It costs more than 300 million won per episode, but more will go in these days. Aren't the stars worth a fortune?"
"Is that so much going in?”
