Breaking Up Is Better Than Divorce

In July, the stock markets of each country that had been hit by Brexit were recovering again.

With the exception of the pound sterling, which is still bottoming out, other currencies have recovered to their previous levels.

And around that time, Eugene’s investment in Brexit was almost finished.

“It generated revenues of $167.1 billion in both the currency market and $148.2 billion in the stock market and other commodities.”

Joanna reported with a proud face.

“So the total is $315.3 billion?”

This is far below the publicly known $1 trillion in revenue. However, it was a record amount for the amount of profit obtained in less than a month.

Now, a huge amount of $400 billion is set aside for new investments.

“I exited everything except the $10 billion I put in sterling futures. And as directed, we are concentrating on buying stocks of Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple and AMD.”

Now, there will be no major events for a while. Therefore, it is wise to invest in IT blacksmiths who will steadily rise until the early 2020s.

Netflix stock, the most profitable for the time being, has already overflowed, and the right time for Tesla has yet to come.

Eugene ordered that most of the available resources be put into stocks, leaving only a small portion.

Of course, as always, the investment is carried out with leverage using other financial institutions, so the actual amount of investment far exceeds the amount of input.

This time, we used leverage equivalent to about three times.

However, the amount of investment was so large that it reached a point where it could not be fully digested by the IT blacksmith alone.

They had to put the remaining funds into the Nasdaq, Dow Jones and S&P 500.

“A trillion dollars is no longer a lie. In terms of assets under management, it’s over $1 trillion.”

Assets (funds) managed by financial institutions are not counted as capital, but as AUM (Asset Under Management).

As Joanna said, the assets under management of the Eugene Office were well over $1 trillion.

However, it didn’t seem too far away when real assets that were not under management would exceed $1 trillion.

Moreover, this does not include cryptocurrencies whose historic boom is now over a year away.

“We need to accelerate the establishment of a research center.”

The purpose of the establishment of the think tank, which will be known externally, is to gather world-class scholars to conduct research that will contribute to the future of mankind, but in reality, it should be viewed as protecting Eugene’s enormous wealth.

There’s nothing like a think tank to attract people with more power.

Currently, he is contacting both Democrats and Republicans through various channels.

It includes lawyers who have not yet entered politics and former prosecutors from each state.

This is because, in the case of the United States, it is well known that many of those who enter the political world come from such lawyers.

He recruits a variety of people, gives them a seat in the research center, offers a huge salary, and offers an opportunity to participate in Eugene’s investment.

It is intended to form a kind of economic community with the employed.

In the long run, it would also signal to high-ranking officials in the political relationship that when they step down, they will be able to live comfortably until their next tenure at Eugene’s research center, earning huge sums of money.

If so, incumbent bureaucrats and politicians can’t help but worry about their futures.

If Eugene had a problem, it would also be a problem for their future profits.

Salaries of as low as $1 million to as high as $10 million are being considered for former ministers.

This is usually several times the amount they could receive by working in another institution.

It was hoped that the larger the amount Eugene paid, the less likely it would be to help Eugene, or at least harm him, the people who were and will participate in Eugene’s economic community.

This will require a very large amount of money.

“First of all, I’m thinking of $500 million as a yearly budget. In the long run, from as little as a billion dollars to more.”

However, compared to Eugene’s assets, it is only a penny.

If you could create an economic community that would protect Eugene with only $1 billion a year, it would be a no-brainer.

“It is a considerable amount to be put into a single think tank.”

The Brookings Institute, known as the world’s most famous and influential think tank, has a budget of less than $100 million a year.

Similarly, the Heritage Foundation, which has a strong influence on the conservative side, is also known to use a slightly smaller budget.

The budget of the research institute that Eugene decided to launch was rather larger than the combined budgets of the top 10 US research institutes.

What’s more, the bigger attraction is that you can intervene in Eugene’s investment, which becomes more certain over time.

“The size of the FI fund will be larger than the size of the FO fund.”

The FO fund is an ongoing fund for heads of state such as Trump and the Queen of England, and the FI fund is a fund that can be invested by employees working in Eugene’s office and those working in the research center to be established in the future.

In fact, receiving external funds from other hedge funds or asset management companies is only for making profits, but in Eugene’s case, on the contrary, it is for sharing the profits you will get with others.

So, in reality, it is more of a benefit rather than an investment, and of course, the amount that can be invested is limited according to the internally prepared grade. In many ways, it is the exact opposite of a typical financial company.

“I plan to limit the size of both FI funds and FO funds to a maximum of $10 billion.”

Of course, Eugene doesn’t intend to share his profits. It is enough to share only a fraction of the amount he invests.

“Instead, let’s open the door a little bit to William’s asset manager.”

William’s asset manager is also making ridiculously high returns compared to general investment institutions.

Even though it only follows Eugene’s investment and ensures Eugene’s return on investment.

In this way, a project was underway to create a barrier for people that would become a solid foundation for Eugene’s economic community, that is, Eugene’s financial empire.

As part of that task, I met another tycoon through the introduction of former Justice Minister Eric.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Brennan.”

“I am very happy. If I were to pick the most important person in the world right now, I would not hesitate to put Eugene Kang on my first finger.”

A mature white man with an impressive nose sharp like a hawk looked at Eugene with bitter eyes and said:

It was nice to see him, but his eyes could never only look at him in a favorable way.

“I heard a story from Eric. Are you building an investment information center?”

Brennan, unlike the others, skipped all the frivolous chatter and immediately brought up the agenda.

“As the size of our company’s assets has grown, we feel the need to acquire various information.”

“Looking at the investment performance of Eugene Kang, I don’t know if such a thing is necessary.”

“Until now, luck has always been with me, but there is no guarantee that will happen in the future. As with everything else, the more accurate information you have, the more helpful it can be for your investment. If you don’t want to be like LTCM.”

“Well, it is not. If Long Term Capital had a little more information about Russia, such a disaster would not have happened.”

Brennan agreed with Eugene.

“Therefore, it is necessary to gather accurate information not only domestically but also globally. And when I looked for the right person for the job, they all recommended Mr. Panetta.”

John Owen Brennan was the longest-serving CIA officer in the Obama administration.

And best of all, unlike other CIA directors who have taken over political positions, Brennan is a real expert who has worked for the CIA for 25 years, serving as an analyst in the Near East and South Asia, base director in Saudi Arabia, and director of the National Center for Counterterrorism.

So, he is the most powerful and most experienced person in the information world.

“To be honest, I have no idea what Eugene Kang intends to create such an institution for.”

“Maybe it’s because I’m not American yet?”

“Of course. I agreed to come here because I wanted to know whether Eugene Kang would be helpful to the United States or not.”

As Eugene knew, this man was a real patriot.

“I am not a citizen yet, but sooner or later I will fulfill my responsibilities as a citizen of the United States. I will do my best for America and the world.”

“Of course I thought you would. But who knows what will happen?”

“Then why don’t you just watch it from the side? I would like to entrust Mr. Hayden with full control of the new information center. And I have no intention of making any illegal demands in any way, and I have no intention of making any other political demands other than to obtain information. If I do something unpatriotic, the first person to know about it will be Mr. Brennan.”

Eugene placed a condition befitting the patriot Brennan.

“If you commit such an act, I will act according to my conscience.”

Brennan accepted Eugene’s proposal more easily than expected.

The economic conditions are yet to be mentioned.

But if you think about it, you must have received some kind of remarks from Eric.

Eugene’s proposal would be very attractive to Brennan, who recently resigned as director of the CIA.

So, Eugene was busy setting up two institutions to help and protect him in fields other than investment.

– Did you see the news?

When I received the phone call from early morning without being able to fully understand myself, Sejong publicist Cheol-woo asked in a hurried voice.

“news? What news?”

“That woman. I must have been attacked.”

Cheol-woo did not clearly reveal his name, but Eugene could immediately recognize who he was referring to.

“when?”

“It was last night.”

“How is it?”

Eugene asked at first, wondering if it was her own play.

“It looks a little serious. He was stabbed in the stomach and in the side, and they say he is in critical condition.”

It doesn’t look like it’s a simple play. However, Eugene, who knew her well, still could not raise any doubts. Maybe it’s a false report, maybe it’s a plan that went awry.

Thinking he had done everything he could for her by going back in time, Eugene didn’t care too much about her or even think about her if he could now.

There is nothing more foolish than living a new life simply for the revenge of the last life.

Eugene thought it was enough to let the world know about her shamelessness in the last courtroom.

Of course, there is still work to be done with Daeyang, but I only think of it as a stepping stone for the future that Eugene is drawing.

But something completely unexpected happened. Apparently, his affair with her is not completely over.

no. Maybe it will end with this. If it is true that he suffered serious injuries.

“Who is the culprit?”

“It looks like they haven’t been arrested yet.”

“You can’t even guess who it is?”

“uh. It looks like that.”

“Is it something to do with the ocean?”

The question was closer to a question asked to himself rather than to Cheol-woo.

Those guys are the only ones she has a grudge against.

“I would rather do that.”

Cheol-woo still answered in a serious voice.
