‘I need a big room.’

Hyeonseung Oh, CEO of entertainment agency HSE (HhyeonSeung Entertainment), sat in the first class heading to Korea and tilted his chair.

The representative girl group, Cream Girls, gained sensational popularity enough to spark a K-pop craze in Asia. I thought that the heyday of HSE would come after the juniors who were produced also built some popularity.

‘Who would have known it would turn out like this?’

Through systematic dance and vocal training, they prided themselves on not being inferior to other girl groups in terms of their skills, but it was very difficult to read trends.

HSE began to decline after Cream Girls’ retirement. Since I Love You, a 6-member girl group of Pink Rabbit, there was no hit song to speak of, so it was treated as a thing of the past among young people.

‘This collaboration should go well.’

Its competitor, SSi (Super Star idol), recently opened up an overseas market through collaboration with American singers, and had a lot of fun.

The number of views on New Tube, which was an average of 1 million, far exceeded 10 million, and thanks to this, the sales volume of music sources also increased, leading to a vertical rise in sales.

In contrast, HSE was on a downward trend. Even if he released a song, he was treated as trash and was shunned by consumers. I thought it was because of the staff who couldn’t read the times and changed it, but I couldn’t stand the falling blade.

Special measures were needed.

‘If only the collaboration goes well…’

Rapper WK.

He was a Billboard singer that he had barely reached after going through the connections he had made while studying in the United States. It was a project that was finally completed after begging and begging because there was no Billboard singer who wanted to collaborate with an unpopular Korean girl group.

There were rumors that he was a drug addict, but there were no other popular singers willing to collaborate with them, so there was no choice.

‘Still, I’m glad you liked it.’

Rapper WK really liked Pink Rabbit. In particular, he showed a deep interest in Moon Ji-yeon, and thanks to that, the story worked out well.

That doesn’t mean that the collaboration fee has become cheaper, though.

“Anyway, these hippos eat money.

“·······.”

The manager who was sitting next to him felt intimidated by what he said without thinking.

“Ah. That’s right. I was next to Chief Lee.”

“sorry.”

The manager noticed that HSE’s collapse seemed to be his fault. In fact, it was a disaster caused by CEO Oh Hyun-seung’s lack of planning ability, but he always drove the staff.

At least, it was her credit that made her face known as Pink Rabbit.

Even if we picked and rolled good-looking and pretty kids, if they didn’t have talent, we couldn’t secure only a small number of fans. Oh Hyeon-seung’s marketing, which aimed for lookism, did not show clear results.

But that didn’t mean he was at a loss.

There were several girl groups that didn’t sell well to Oh Hyun-seung, and singing wasn’t the only way girl groups could make money.

The connections he made in the political and business world were quite extensive.

But that was all.

I got a few ambassador positions through my personal connections, but other than that, I couldn’t make any special money. In addition, recently, I heard wrong information and invested in the company’s funds.

‘I don’t believe in that swindler.’

I was hooked by a stock scammer who heated up the world and blew away a lot of money, so I got on a sh*t line. As a matter of urgency, groups with even a little bit of recognition were returned to Southeast Asia to receive cash, but it was not enough to touch large sums of money.

“This project is very important, you know?”

“Yes. Boss.”

“Chief Lee is lucky. He gets into a good company and gets a first seat seat.”

‘Is it because of you? It’s thanks to that person named Kim Jae-gu.’ Even though the words of this filled my throat, it was not the attitude of a mature office worker to reveal it.

“thank you.”

“By the way, how do you plan to proceed with the marketing of this project?”

“for now···.”

Director Lee began to explain the marketing direction.

I couldn’t even rest properly on the flight back to Korea because the six girls were chatting non-stop.

‘A pink rabbit or something. The names of idol groups these days are really strange.’

The 6 members, including Moon Ji-yeon, looked like idol singers, but to me, they looked just like children.

As soon as we got off the plane, Moon Ji-yeon once again thanked me.

“Boss. Thank you very much.”

“It’s nothing, but it’s okay.”

I don’t know how many times I’ve been thanked for changing seats. That must have been important to the child.

“Boss. Thank you.”

The other children greeted each other, and then they gathered together and started moving around chattering. The tip of his nose felt cold as he remembered the image of him hanging out with his friends during his school days.

‘How many real friends do I have among them?’

If I think like this, have I become a very polluted adult? My heart ached as I remembered the friends who had turned away from me when I called because I was having a hard time.

What are you doing because you are obsessed with the past? While ending my relationship with Seo Eun-chae, I decided to look to the future and move forward.

‘I’m going to go see Hanul.’

***

Buying souvenirs locally was not because of the price. The global era has accelerated, and in particular, due to the partnership between Savannah Market and Daehan Market, the logistics distance between the US and Korea has become close enough.

Rather, paying a few thousand won more and having it delivered was more efficient than carrying it a long way.

Still buying souvenirs

“Dad! This is so pretty!”

Hayeon put on a hat and smiled. I bought it because I saw it in the children’s clothing section of a duty-free store and thought it would look good on me.

“Do you like it?”

“Yeah! At this level, even that sister will win.”

Hayeon looked at herself in the mirror with a confident expression. I smiled naturally at the lovely appearance that did not hurt even if I put it in my eyes.

“Oh, well, buy all these things and draw them.”

“Wasn’t it heavy?”

My father was wearing sunglasses again, and my mother looked at Ha-yeon in the mirror from behind to see if she liked the new bag.

“Ayu. I’m old so I don’t know what kind of book this is.”

“Get along well.”

He said he was fine with his face, but his words were not. Still, the nagging lessened after I realized I had a lot of money.

“Thank you, son.”

My mother smiled lightly. A shriveled, wrinkled hand caught my eye. It was the hand that got rougher while cleaning.

Mother covered the back of her hand as if she was worried about her gaze.

“Look at my mind. You’ll be tired after a long time. Sit down. I’ll cook for you.”

“My stew tastes better than yours. I’ve already finished preparing the ingredients.”

My father looked confidently at his sunglasses-wearing face in the mirror.

“Heh heh. If I go out wearing this, they’ll be very upset, right?”

“Don’t be shy, come and have a meal.”

“To be ashamed.”

Mother snorted as Father went to the kitchen wearing sunglasses.

“It suits you well.”

“right?”

It was nice to see the two of them smiling and preparing the food.

Ha-yeon smiled and asked Seo Kang-jae.

“Uncle Kangjae. How about me?”

“How is it? Like a princess.”

“Isn’t it? The kids will envy you when you go to school.”

I wanted to continue to see Ha-yeon smiling and liking her, but there was one more person to give me a present.

I took the elevator to the third floor and knocked on Han Kyung-ah’s door.

“who are you?”

“It’s me. Jaegu Kim.”

“president!”

The door burst open and Han Kyung-ah came out.

“Did you have a good business trip?”

Even though it was autumn, the heat from the computer warmed the room. She hurriedly brushed her hair back and tied it back.

“I’m sorry. I was studying until just now…”

A lot of materials were placed in front of the desk, and the room was quite messy. I wanted to say something, but I didn’t come here to nag, so I held back.

“hahahaha. Isn’t the room a bit dirty?”

“If you’re busy, maybe. Take this.”

“what it this?”

“souvenir.”

After all, I thought an electronic device would be the best gift for Han Kyung-ah, so I bought a new laptop. I didn’t buy it in the US, but I bought it after coming to Korea.

She thanked me without even opening it.

“Wow. Thank you.”

“I’ll be asking for something soon, so I’m studying hard.”

“Yes. Thank you, boss.”

They’re just a few early members, so you have to take good care of them.

How much time did I save thanks to Mr. Han Kyung-ah, and how much extra money could I earn?

‘Without being noticed by anyone.’

It would be inconvenient, but I was also grateful that he came home and stayed without going out.

‘As expected, I’m glad I chose Han Kyung-ah.’

And finally.

I called Im Hanul.

“Uh. It’s me, Hanul. How have you been? Eh. Nothing else. If it’s time tonight, let’s have a meal.”

***

Monday morning.

I went to work at the office of the best product. Choi Ji-hoon, Jamin-jung, and one bodyguard were already doing something in the office.

“Good morning everyone.”

I set down the snack I bought at the department store and put my butt in the remaining seat.

“Hyung. You’re home.”

“Chief Kim. How are you?”

Choi Ji-hoon laughed bashfully.

“Your face isn’t good, what’s wrong?”

“It’s a shareholders’ meeting in two days. I’m so nervous.”

Choi Jihoon smiled with effort. That look made me feel more intimidated.

“I told you that I could act as a spokesperson if it was really difficult, but you stubbornly refuse.”

“No. I have to. My brother trusted me and entrusted me with it.”

It was good to show enthusiasm.

‘I was going to ask Benjamin if he would act as an aide, but it would be better to ask after the shareholders’ meeting.’

If there was a big change now, it was obvious that Choi Ji-hoon’s mentality would be shaken.

“How is the acquisition situation?”

“There were many people who said they would support us if we proceeded with an anonymous vote. If the stake in Dokgo Corporation is 10%, and the cooperation of the foreign company that the president mentioned is added… What will happen to the stake the foreign company has now?”

“25%.”

“Then, the total 35% is 6% of the support base, including former managing director Song Woong, so if you add it up, it becomes 41%.”

Dokgo Trade’s share is 30%, Dokgoeul’s share is 1%, and Dokgojeong’s share is 4%.

“How do minority shareholders react?”

“It’s positive.”

He opened the stock bulletin board and showed it.

[Prayer for Dokgo Commerce and Daehan Market M&A]

If Daehan Market acquires Dokgo Commerce, the stock price will rise as it is an oligopoly.

3x Gaza

What if I go out?

b more fall

Are you doing online voting?

Public opinion was hoping that the stock would rise as Daehan Market acquired Dokgo Commerce at a reasonable price. The only way for the falling Dokgo Commerce to survive was to merge with Daehan Market.

“It was a natural result, so I didn’t have to exert much effort.”

“Will stocks really go up?”

“I’m going up. And there’s one more room left.”

Benjamin Chung laughed meaningfully.

“One room?”

“We asked an economic tuber with 1 million subscribers to analyze M&A.”

“Is this a back advertisement?”

“The request fee was a little bit, but it’s not a back advertisement.”

He opened the channel and showed it.

It was the economic analysis new tuber ‘red line’ famous for telling only the truth.

“I only asked for the topic to be covered, but it is a condition that I do not touch the direction of the broadcast at all.”

“That’s right. Trust is his means of business.”

“As a result of reviewing from various directions, if Dokgo Commerce and Daehan Market merge, the stock price will inevitably rise.”

“I guess so.”

When a company monopolizes, it raises commissions and squeezes out consumers, which inevitably raises the rate of return. Even if companies don’t intend to do so, consumers will trust them to do so.

“When is the broadcast?”

“Today’s lunch break is 12:40.”

It was time for office workers to take a break after lunch.

“How will the results come out?”

“It will work out in our favor.”

***

On the day of the broadcast, 7:00 am.

Make sure to read from noble mtl com

Jeokseon, a famous economic new tuber, was troubled by the box that had just arrived.

‘What should I do?’

The box the courier service driver came to and left in front of the door contained 100 million won. Inside was a small note.

[Please take care not to merge with Dokgo Commerce.]

I don’t know where the information leaked, but it was a request to change the contents of today’s broadcast.

1 million.

If the broadcasting objected to the merger of Dokgo Commerce, so if the merger did not take place, it was money that could be eaten without any damage.

But is it worth betting your career on that level?

He tapped the box with his foot, furrowing his brow.

‘What should I do.’
