[038]Let’s not be greedy 2.
“America?”
“That’s right. It is headquartered in Manhattan, New York.”
“Are you Korean?”
Masayoshi Son, the Japanese name for the young 36-year-old Son Jung, tilted his head as he gazed curiously at Oh Se-hyeon, a middle-aged Korean man who speaks fluent English and Japanese.
“yes. The capital of our investment company is Korean, but we mainly invest in American companies and Hollywood films.”
“Then if you were to invest dollars…?”
“That’s it, the boss can do whatever he wants.”
“By the way, how did you know about SoftBank?”
“My company also owns quite a bit of Microsoft stock. That’s why I always get a business report every quarter. Suddenly, the performance in Japan stood out, so I became interested.”
“ah…!”
Having a common link when negotiating is a pretty good card. It is because the vigilance is diluted by becoming an acquaintance and a related person, not a stranger.
“Then are you on your way from America?”
“no. I’m from Korea.”
“I’m glad.”
A slightly mocking smile.
Oh Se-hyeon bit his lip as he thought there would be a negative reaction.
“Since you came from a place close by, I feel less sorry. As we have already faxed you, we do not need any external investment at this time.”
“So I came directly. I want to convince Mr. Son.”
“Um… I’m sorry that I couldn’t accurately convey my thoughts through the text. No investment is accepted under any conditions. This thought will change…”
“I’ll give you tenfold.”
Son Jeong-eui was speechless because of Oh Se-hyun, who suddenly threw out the condition. In addition, an unconventional offer of ten times.
However, Oh Se-hyeon spit out the words with the feeling of swallowing poison. If I could, it was something I would like to pick up again.
‘What kind of kid is this guy’s distribution so big… I can’t lie about bloodlines.’

“Gambling makes people lose their reason. Isn’t it?”
“How do you know that? Are you doing memes at school?”
I’ve seen a guy who lost his mind over gambling countless times in this Sunyang Group. They spend tens of billions of dollars and siphon off company money to make up for the money.
If they are caught by the prosecution for embezzlement, they flee to foreign countries and visit casinos again. After placating the prosecution at the Sunyang Group, he repeatedly returns home with a lot of gambling debts.
Even if the guys in this family quit drugs, they can’t stop gambling. because money is plentiful.
“There are no kids in our school who carry coins. I don’t carry less than 10,000 won. Cards are basic.”
“okay? After all, the people in the house are different. But what are you going to do with gambling? Are you going to play poker with the president of Softbank?”
“yes. Let’s try a race.”
“race?”
“It’s a race to ten times the purchase price of Softbank shares.”
“what? oh no Go on.”
I see Oh Se-hyun’s surprised face for the first time in a long time.
“From then on, keep adding five times. Fifteen, twenty times, twenty-five times. And that if you stop, the negotiations end on the spot. There’s no turning back… isn’t this a gamble?”
“That bastard Son Jung-eui will run late? hahaha.”
Oh Se-hyun hit his knees and laughed out loud, but the laughter didn’t last long.
“It is plausible, but we must not forget the purpose. If he’s ok at 20 times, we lose. No, you might lose even tenfold. We aim for investment profits, not the acquisition of Softbank.”
“I’m thinking of racing to fifty times?”
I was surprised by the word tenfold, but not surprised by the word fiftyfold. There was only a strange expression on his face.
“Don’t make that face. Dell computers are already over a hundred times old. Softbank stock could also be multiplied a hundredfold.”
“Is it really so? Softbank is not a manufacturer. It’s just a distributor. hundredfold? You could lose all your money.”
“We can’t just put our opponents on a gambling table and be left alone. Isn’t there any poker you play alone? We have to see the end.”
Oh Se-hyeon stood up without saying anything.
“You have strong gambling luck, so let’s try this race. I don’t raise the stakes. By the way, Do-joon.”
“yes.”
“The end of gambling is disgrace. Be mindful.”
calm voice.
He was not the CEO of an investment company, but his father’s best friend.
“This will be the last time. Until I become an adult.”
Oh Se-hyun nodded lightly.

“What are you doing now?”
“I’ll give you fifteen times. Oh, there is one thing I want to tell you first. When I stand up from this chair, I won’t look back. Also, it is assumed that there was no offer. Twenty times!”
Unlike Oh Se-hyun, who was relaxed, Son Jung-ui’s fingertips trembled.
“Twenty-five times.”
“Wait a minute!”
Oh Se-hyeon knows how to lead a race with a person with a lot of stake. I know that I shouldn’t give the other person time to think. You have to push through without a break to cover your hand and surrender.
“Thirty times.”
“…….”
At that moment, the opponent’s trembling hands stopped. When he realized the rules of the game, he regained his composure. It’s also not normal.
It was difficult to understand the meaning of that equilibrium.
Are you estimating Oh Se-hyun’s stake, or are you really not wanting to invest? Which one?
“Thirty-five times.”
it is also silent
Oh Se-hyun picked up the briefcase that had been put down next to the chair. It was a bluff.
But it didn’t work. Oh Se-hyun continued the race and maintained a poker face, probably to see how far Son Jeong-eui would go.
“Fifty times.”
“……call.”
Did it show up on your face? I recognized the exact moment of the last bet.
When the race was over, Son Jeong-eui’s expression revealed the winner’s arrogance.
lost. It’s embarrassing, but…
But for Oh Se-hyeon, it wasn’t over yet.
Now it’s time to raise the stakes.
“How many weeks would you give me fifty times?”
“That part went through an internal meeting…”
“Forty-five times.”
“what? this……!”
He was clearly taken aback, but since he was a quick-witted person, a new board started and he immediately recognized the rules of the game.
“Forty times.”
“Million weeks. No more…”
Now, Oh Se-hyeon has to read the opponent’s stake. Since the investment multiple is decreasing, there is no one who does not know that a fifty-fold profit can be saved by increasing the amount of stocks.
The two quickly started counting. How many weeks does it take to make the maximum profit? However, it was Oh Se-hyeon who led this edition.
Son Jeong-eui can no longer give up her greed for surplus money.
Bet again.
“Thirty-five times.”
“Five million.”
Now that the eyes looking at each other have subsided, this is the last bet. Now the race had to be stopped.
This isn’t a battle of egos, it’s just a negotiation.
“……call.”
When the gamble was over, both of them let out a long breath at the same time.
Oh Se-hyun held out his hand, but the hand to catch it did not come out.
“Five million shares is too much right now. A minimum increase of two million shares is required. Will you accept this?”
It didn’t sound like a call to break the plate now. It meant telling the reality as it is and solving it.
“great. Two million shares increased, three million shares acquired. That concludes.”
Only then did Son Jeong-ui hold out her hand and smiled broadly.
Shares with a face value of 150 yen were sold for 5,250 yen. With two pushes and pulls, he made 25 billion yen. It was understandable that it was difficult to hold back laughter.
“I’m sorry to say this, but Miracle Investment is unfamiliar to me… It seems to have a lot of money.”
“It’s like that. We have more than 100 billion yen in cash right now.”
With Son Jeong-eui unable to keep his mouth shut in surprise, Oh Se-hyun has already started drafting the contract.
* * *
“We signed a contract of 35 times 5 million shares. Now you have no choice but to trust your luck and wait.”
“Don’t worry. It will be fine.”
“But are you really going to sell all your Dell stock?”
Persuasion seems to have given up, and it feels like a last check.
They sell stocks that are on the rise and use some of the money to buy stocks of software distributors at ridiculous prices.
It’s crazy no matter who sees it, but the guy who made trillions of money with this is right in front of his eyes.
“I have earned a hundredfold, but I don’t think there is any reason to hold onto it. After selling Dell stock and buying Softbank stock, let your uncle handle the remaining money. I will also be a high school student next year. I will only study for three years.”
“You are the first to hear that students say that they are studying is so awkward. Hehe.”
Oh Se-hyeon, who burst out laughing, changed to a serious expression again.
“It’s obvious that you, who always topped the school, want to go to Seoul National University. What is your major? Maybe business administration or economics?”
“no. Am I going to go to law school?”
“Law school?”
“yes.”
Oh Se-hyun blinked at the completely unexpected answer.
Now that I’ve made enough money, I know better than anyone else that I’m not the kind of person who would become a judge and a prosecutor.
“My grandfather, who is Korea’s top entrepreneur, and my uncle, who majored in economics in England, are by my side. What will I learn at university?”
“So what about law school? What are you going to learn there? You’re not saying you’re going to be judged, right?”
“Of course not. It just shows.”
“Show me what?”
“For a third-generation conglomerate, he is good at studying. There are still people from conglomerate households who went to Seoul National University, but no one has the grades to go to law school.”
As if he had guessed the real reason for wanting to go to law school, Oh Se-hyeon smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth. I thought it was an intention to take another look at Chairman Jin.
No special explanation was given. There is no reason to inform.
“I see. So what about Dell? When would be a good time to sell?”
“Now the transaction price goes back and forth between $47 and $49, right?”
“okay.”
“Then let’s cross that line.”
“okay. And now the exchange rate is 111 yen per dollar. Put $230 million in Softbank and I’ll manage the rest as you said. okay?”
I don’t remember anything in particular now. All you have to do is decide whether or not to invest by looking at the list of film productions sent from the United States.
I will definitely go to Seoul National University Law School to concentrate on my studies. Many of Korea’s high-ranking officials are from here.
Chairman Jin, who never left this school, moves them like limbs. That is the power of money. However, the most sticky link in Korea is the academic line, especially the university.
I will hold money in one hand and the string of alumni in the other and use bureaucrats like limbs. That way they don’t consider themselves limbs. You will think of them as alumni helping each other.
This subtle difference will be the strength to get me a little ahead of Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki, who manipulates people with money.
However, my plans to devote myself to study had to be put on hold.
When I opened the newspaper as usual in the middle of a hot summer day, all the headlines were the same as if they had been copied
.
This year, exports of semiconductors exceeded 2 billion dollars, the highest for a single item in the first half of the year, and are enjoying the greatest boom since Dangun.
