I didn't give an impromptu answer to what the CEO of Woods & Moore said.
"We don't have 70 billion cash now. I don't know if I'm going to invest or not, but if I do, I still need
"I'm sure you will."
"You're here, so let's go eat. It's already 12."
Our party went to a Korean restaurant on the first basement floor of the Conrad Hotel.
The Hanjeongsik House was the IFC branch of Gyeongbokgung Palace Black Yeouido.
"Since you're in Korea, try Korean charcoal ribs."
Woods & Moore's CEO grinned.
"The travel guide said that Korean charcoal ribs are delicious."
I ordered a Korean style lunch with charcoal ribs. That's because there will be a lot of side dishes.
I also ordered a beer.
We ate and drank merrily.
When I got a little tipsy, I told my boss, Martin Hayward.
"I think we should know the name of the building so we can decide whether to invest or not. Can't you really tell me the name of the building?"
"I asked you not to reveal it yet... If you go to the KBS annex, it's the E Tower building."
"E Tower building?“
I knew E tower building.
The building was occupied by H Group, a conglomerate, and a foreign investment bank.
There was a shopping mall underground, so I once went to eat jjamppong.
The size of the shopping mall was so large that there were many restaurants and coffee shops and some clothes.
"Oh, that building wasn't owned by Group H.”
"It's a lease to Group H. I don't think we have a problem with big companies coming in and getting rent."
"I don't know what the lease term is."
"We still have time. There is also data taken over from the selling company. There are deposits, rental ratings, and rent for each tenant."
Martin Hayward then pulled the papers out of his bag.
"You have a lot of moving-in companies."
Yeoeuido is a financial mecca, so there is no vacancy. We've looked around. And it's less than 10 years old."
"But why is the U.S. private equity firm selling the building?”
"It's about rebuilding our investment portfolio. We also have enough capital gains to sell."
I thought it would not help the economy as foreign capital is entering our country and investing in real estate without flowing into our country.
Moreover, it occurred to us that if we borrow money from Korean banks with low interest rates, we would only have a outflow of national wealth.
I was worried that foreign capital seems to be eating and running a lot.
I said after a sip of beer.
"But why are you trying to join us?"
"In Korea, individual households, not businesses, have no money. If so, they are companies or asset managers. If a company buys real estate recklessly, it will be used for non-businesslike. I get slapped with a lot of taxes. That's why I was trying to contact the asset manager."
"Well, is that so?"
"It has to be a reliable asset manager, and I thought it would be easy to work because there are people like Choi and Choi Yu-na."
I nodded.
And said in a low voice.
"We'll deliver the investment later through Acting President Choi Yu-na."
"I'll be waiting for the good news. But there are two private equity firms we have contacted. Please note that we have no choice but to work with the first contact."
"Okay."
I broke up with the people of Woods & Moore and headed to the office with Chang and deputy Choi Yu-na.
General Manager Chang told me.
"Do you crave it? The E Tower building."
"Well."
"Buildings will do the basics, if not the jackpot like stock-themed stocks. First of all, it's real estate, so it's not ruined. So it is a favorite investment destination for foreigners. What's more, it's a time when interest rates are low.
"Is General Manager Zhang willing to invest if he has money?"
"I have some spare money, but if I don't have a suitable investment destination, I might consider it."
I told Chang and Assistant Manager Choi Yuna to go first at the entrance to the building.
"Go up to the office first. I'm going to go around Yeouido Park because my face turns red."
"Will you?"
Seeing Jang smiling, he seemed to think that I was going into Janggo.
I sent Director Jang and Assistant Manager Choi Yuna back and went to the E Tower building alone.
The employees of the companies that moved into the building were seen coming in after lunch.
The building was not as big as the IFC building I rented, but it was still quite big and grand.
Wouldn't it be grand if the annual review was 14,000 pyeong?
I went up to the 20th floor once in the elevator.
On the 20th floor, there was a signboard titled "H Group General Affairs Team and Finance Team" hanging from the board to see if it was being used by H Group.
Group H was also difficult to get into. It was a company that couldn't even submit applications.
Companies with the word "group" are not easy to enter unless they are from Sky University.
I'm slowly walking around this huge building where these companies rent it.
I took the elevator again to the first basement floor.
It was because there was a shopping mall here.
There were Korean restaurants, Japanese restaurants, and a Hong Kong Ban store. There were also fast food restaurants and Ediya coffee shops.
I went into the coffee house.
I ordered a cup of plaincino coffee.
I thought about it over a cup of coffee.
"How do we make 70 billion?”
Of course, 70 billion won could be settled through loans for 50 apartments.
In this case, however, they will not be able to buy shares of Group G.
Even now, if the chairman of G Group dies and there is a management dispute between his sons, I have to step in and resolve it, but I can't do that.
Then I'll be a bad guy for all my troubles.
Even if he didn't embezzle money, he could have used it.
Buying 50 apartments now is useful, and if you bought a building with a loan based on it, I would be the one to kill.
If this happens, the head of the law firm Hwachon will not trust me, so he will take out the funds he invested in immediately.
I felt thirsty, so I ordered another lemonade.
I wanted to eat this big building, but I couldn't, so I was going crazy.
"Shall we sell the SillaJen back?”
I thought I wouldn't get 70 billion won even if I sold SillaJen.
I stretched myself out and left the Ediya coffee shop.
I really wanted to have this building as I saw the shops with great interior design.
If I were to be the owner of this building, the owners of this mall would treat me like a lord.
I decided to think about this problem later and came up to the office.
Assistant manager Choi Yuna brought me fruit juice.
"When do the Woods & Moore people say they're going back?”
"He said he'd look around the building area in Gangnam and Songdo in Incheon and go to Vietnam the day after tomorrow."
"Vietnam?"
"It seemed like there was a real estate development project."
"Who will guide you to Gangnam and Incheon?"
"The U.S. asset management company, the owner of the E Tower building, decided to guide us. The company has a Korean branch.“
"I see. I see."
When assistant manager Choi Yu-na left my room, I looked at the stock price of S Productions.
Stock prices were rising with strong beekeepers. It was also breaking the moving average on Tuesday.
"My father-in-law will buy it by tomorrow."
I didn't make a deal with SillaJen on that day. I just rested.
It seemed that SillaJen would not move for about three months anyway.
It seemed that it would have to go through the process of extinguishing the goods and the period of collecting grapefs
Strangely, I didn't want to work today.
I ran to the Conrad Hotel and soaked myself in the sauna.
These days, when I go home in the evening after work, Eunyeong was very nice to me.
It was especially so recently. It seemed to be the hope that if his father and brother did well, they might get out of debt because of me.
"Oppa, try this. It's soy sauce marinated crab. My mom sent it."
"I'm sorry if I keep doing this?"
"It's okay. Mom took this and sent it to Ilsan's brother and sent it to my house."
"Really?"
I was actually worried that there might be a lot of friction with the management after marriage.
I was worried that my father-in-law would ignore my family because the background of my family was so different from ours.
But all of those things were groundless.
Both Eun-young and her father-in-law seemed to be trying to be good to me.
It was because of my powerful money.
Some people think that money is not important, but love and health, but it seems that money is the only thing that is treated well.
The next day came.
I called Chang to my room when the coffee time was over.
"Please notify us that we will take over S-production convertible bonds."
"Old? Have you decided? How much is it?"
"Make 5 billion."
"When should I apply and when should I pay?”
"It's up to you to discuss it with your people."
"Okay."
"If you ask me to send you money tomorrow, do so."
"Okay, I'll take care of the matter regarding the early repayment of the debenture."
I thought by now that Hwang Mi-na had finished all the hawks and that the craftsman would have almost finished them.
Hwang Mi-na poked in 200 million won, and the craftsman believed he would have poked in 1 billion.
General Manager Chang was about to leave my room, but I called him back.
"You said you knew about a club, right?”
"Yes, it is."
"You can let me know."
"That's a good idea. I've seen the stock price of S Productions rise for a few days. If you're a hawk, you'd better get in with the kids from the Jo-mak-Son club."
"Is that so?"
"It's time to raise the ceiling. You can easily post it when the club members come in and avoid a minority account warning."
"I mean, I'm not buying stocks in advance, but I'm going to have to do an event to promote S Production."
"That's right. When the price reaches the upper limit, it will all be published in economic journals. Then, you will naturally promote it. The network staff will also look at S production differently."
"That's what I think."
"We won't talk today, we'll talk tomorrow morning."
"Take care of it."
"But if you want to hold onto the club kids, you have to show some gentlemanliness."
"What do you mean?"
"They don't like the main guns watering them."
"You mean don't leave it out in advance."
"Yes, but leave them food for themselves. He wants me to throw him a bone.”
"I see what you mean."
"But I don't think we'll miss out on S production right away. Following the success of the bond issue, the sales contract will be announced, so I think it'll be fine."
"I think so, too."
"More importantly, it could be a good thing for us that our competitor, Keyeast, is cleaning up some of our businesses."
"Keist closes some businesses? You don't do dramas or movies?"
"Not that, but actor Bae Yong-joon, the largest shareholder, said he was closing down the cosmetics business due to market saturation and THAAD headwinds."
"Isn't that cosmetics, not drama?"
"But since you're showing an image that doesn't seem to work out, S-production can stand out."
