Chapter 311 Butterfly Effect (2)
Due to the population concentrated in the metropolitan area, real estate prices soar abnormally.
As a result, young people who gave up on buying their own homes, and the marriage and birth rates are collapsing day by day.
In order to solve all this, President Jeon Chan-chan joined hands with Ajin Group and risked all his political life to promote a project.
A huge underground city with a capacity of 10 million people.
Project Under World.
People who were suspicious of such an unrealistic idea. However, they began to be alert to the progress of Ajin Construction, which began digging underground by drilling a huge hole in the middle of the Han River, and seeing another huge underground site being built within it.
“This… if left alone, something really serious could happen.”
“You’re going to crash real estate prices… You’re doing something dangerous.”
“President Jeon Chan-chan was originally from a poor commoner, wasn’t he? Do you know what a loss this is to so many people, including us?”
Those who are already preoccupying all the places that can be called the yolk land of Seoul. In particular, for the members of the National Assembly, who each own an apartment in Gangnam, Seoul, President Jeon Jeon’s behavior went beyond annoyance and eventually began to become a problem directly related to their survival.
“Since the Underworld project started, the real estate market in Gangnam, Seoul has gone sideways and has fallen by more than 10%. I believe you will understand how fatal this situation is for lawmakers who own several apartments by raising funds through loans and charter.”
“Keuhmmmm….. To be honest, I don’t think this is something worth fighting for as the ruling party and the opposition party. We have to go beyond the ideology of the party and make a bipartisan decision to stop the crazy move of that president.”
The Korea Liberal Party and the New Nara Democratic Party dominate the National Assembly of the Republic of Korea.
Originally divided into conservatives and progressives, they were two political parties that bit each other and splattered blood.
“Then it is decided. No matter what happens, the two parties must work together before the electric president scraps the damn project. Please conduct a thorough internal crackdown so that any noise that opposes the party’s decision does not come out among the lawmakers.”
The National Assembly’s omnidirectional pressure on the electric administration that started like that. However, despite all sorts of hearings, parliamentary audits, and even organizing a special prosecutor, they went on an all-out offensive, but in the end, they had to cross a river that they should not have crossed due to the actions of President Jeon Ki-chan, who closed his eyes and ears and never surrendered to the National Assembly.
[The result of the vote on the impeachment of President Jeon Chan. 243 votes in favor. 51 votes against. Void 2 votes. It came out with 4 abstentions. Therefore, according to the procedure stipulated in Article 65 of the Constitution, I declare that the impeachment motion of President Jeon Chan has been officially passed.] [The
suspicion of bribery related to the Underworld project is growing day by day. Beginning with an internal disclosure by a Blue House official that President Jeon Jeon-chan held unprecedented behind-the-scenes negotiations with Ajin Group regarding the succession of corporate management rights in this project, which is said to be the largest civil engineering project since Dangun…
] passage of impeachment.
and subsequent suspension of the President’s duties.
Before all the people could watch this news and be astonished, the National Assembly continued its next attack with swift action at this moment when the electric government lost its power.
[Urgent news. Just now, in relation to the Underworld bribery scandal, the judiciary accepted the special prosecutor’s request for an arrest warrant, saying that the clear criminal charges of the Ajin Group and President Jeon Chan were proven. Therefore, Ajin Group Vice Chairman Lee Joo-yong and Ajin Construction President Lee Min-sik, who were currently waiting in the detention center, are expected to be tried in custody. This will have a significant impact on the Constitutional Court’s decision on the impeachment of President Jeon Ki-chan…]
The complete abolition of the Underworld. And the Jeon Chan administration is fighting a war against vested interests to continue the myth of invincibility in real estate.
Their defeat is evident, and society is in chaos day by day.
However, Seomin University students, including Jaeyoung, were living a very ordinary and boring life, no different from yesterday.
“OMG! Professor, please stop the assignment!”
“Why do you think kids go crazy after every major class?”
“It’s because the assignment is crazy. What the hell do you want from a sophomore?”
An exhausted college life, exhausted by lectures and assignments.
Newcomers and haha hoho were young people who should have dreamed of a green and warm campus life, but the reality they faced was truly bleak.
“Hey, didn’t you hear the professor praising the first graders last time? They said they would write and submit a thesis as an assignment at the end of a semester.”
“what….? thesis? No, what do the first years know…?”
Newcomers who have just been released from the CSAT and will not be enough even if they go out drinking and having fun. However, those who were carefully selected by Professor Taehoon Kim were quite far from common sense.
“I don’t know. Anyway, there are rumors that newbies went directly to the office and asked if they would like to write a thesis this semester, so that they could guide them, and the professor was so moved that he even shed tears.”
“no way. Where does this bastard sell drugs? Do you think that makes sense?”
Unbelievably unreal situation. However, at his words, the motive shrugged and opened his mouth with a face that said, believe it or not, it doesn’t matter.
“Well… the bottom line is that no matter how hard we whine, Professor Kim Tae-hoon won’t blink an eye. It is obvious that he will pour out all kinds of vicious words compared to the first graders, and compared to the seniors above, isn’t he on the better side? They say it’s just hell.”
“Uh …..”
College life becomes more difficult as the grade goes up.
All students of the Virtual Reality Engineering Department knew very well that the culprit was one Professor Kim Tae-hoon, but they could not express their dissatisfaction or take a leave of absence.
“Virtual Reality Engineering Department…? Oh, is that Professor Kim Tae-Hoon’s disciple?”
“Heh heh heh. If you are a talented person from Seomin University, of course you are welcome.”
“Do you have any thoughts of wanting to join our company? I will take care of the conditions without being envious.”
After the conclusion of industry-academia cooperation with Arcadia Co., Ltd.
The status of the Department of Virtual Reality Engineering has risen far.
As a result, even though it was less than a year ago, the first 4th graders who graduated after Professor Tae-Hoon Kim took office were hired as if they were being bossed by various companies offering tremendous conditions and treatment.
“Don’t even think about taking a leave of absence or transferring. It’s hell, but as long as you persevere, it’s not unreasonable to get a job at another conglomerate other than Arcadia. This is possible because there are still few graduates majoring in virtual reality engineering.
“that’s right. Since industries say they are hiring related personnel, it seems like everyone is postponing the military service and starting with graduation. I don’t know what will happen, but the best thing is to graduate as soon as possible.”
“Ah….. I just don’t care where I am, so please give me a little assignment…”
“Haa…..”
They were talking about things right in front of me and continuing to lament about the current reality. motives.
However, Jaeyoung and Jaekyun were sitting there with the face that they were talking about strangers at all.
“Jaeyoung, come to think of it, you still go to that lab these days…?”
“huh? there? About once a week?”
“okay….?”
“uh. I go because I have to periodically check the synchro rate, but I don’t do anything special. Just like a test to be asked to do there from time to time?”
Those who start with avoiding some ball and present all kinds of tests. However, Jaeyoung proudly cleared all the difficult tasks the research team brought out as if playing a game.
“About 6 of them all break at the highest difficulty level, so after that, they didn’t really ask for it.”
“okay….?”
Jaeyoung speaks so easily. However, Jaekyun looked at Jaeyoung with a meaningful look in his eyes, as if imagining that the entire laboratory might have turned upside down.
“You usually go there and then meet that… boss too?”
“hmm? president? Why is he suddenly?”
Suddenly, Jae-kyun mentions CEO Lee Mi-yeon. At his question, Jaeyoung looked at him strangely and asked.
“That’s… no nothing.”
Jae-gyun, who tries to speak but evades. However, Jaeyoung, who had doubts about his behavior, frowned and asked.
“What. Don’t spin around and talk quickly.”
“No… that’s what I heard a strange story among the staff the other day…”
“A strange story?”
“Jae-Young, you are… like CEO Lee Mi-Yeon’s secret friend…”
A secret friend.
A word that seems to contain something significant and subtle.
Seeing him gulping down his saliva while looking at him with indescribably strange eyes, Jaeyoung hit Jaekyun on the back of his head with the palm of his hand.
Right.
“evil!”
Jae-gyun grabs the back of his head as if it hurts quite a bit. Looking at him with an unfair expression on his face as if asking why, Jaeyoung said.
“Secret friends are right, but not that special. It’s just a symbiotic relationship in which each cooperates for their own benefit…?”
“Symbiotic relationship…?”
Lee Mi-yeon, general manager of Arcadia Co., Ltd., a world-class company.
Player Dex, who has a stronger influence than anyone else in the virtual reality Arcadia.
Lee Mi-yeon, the president of the company, can exert a powerful influence in the real world and Jae-young can exert a powerful influence in the game, so when he briefly talked about this relationship in which they decided to help each other, Jae-gyun muttered in wonder.
“Wow… you mean the boss himself came forward and made that suggestion?”
“It seems that the operators’ control over the virtual reality called Arcadia is weaker than I thought.”
Employees who had almost no authority to directly intervene in the game. In fact, he had been aware of that for a very long time, but through the Empire situation in this show, Jae-young could clearly feel that the level was quite serious.
‘The fact that Japan didn’t stop me even though I knew it would bubble up like that, it wasn’t because I didn’t do it, it was because I couldn’t.’
Jaeyoung, who caused tremendous damage to the Shouen Empire and the entire Japanese continent.
In addition, this great incident that caused international diplomatic problems must have been a huge event that a single company could never ignore.
However, Jaeyoung involuntarily smiled at Arcadia Co., Ltd., which endured all the aftermath and did not intervene in the system in the game.
‘Infinite freedom and infinite possibilities…’
Jae-young could not have imagined that he would keep such a ridiculous motto so faithfully.
It was a crazy operation, but his honest impression was that the game was so much fun because of it. Of course, the problem was that it wasn’t fun at all from the point of view of other users.
“Oh Jaeyoung. Would you like to go home with me today?”
“hmm? Why? You always stay until dinner because Chaeyeon is waiting for you.”
Even though it ends at 3:00 PM, Jae-kyun remains at the university until 6:00 PM, when Chae-yeon’s lecture ends. That’s why Jaeyoung asked with a curious look as if what was going on at a proposal that was completely different from usual.
“Ah, Chaeyeon said she had dinner plans with her classmates today. So he told me not to wait.”
“Oh yeah?”
“uh. So I’m going to go home a little early today too. Your room is also in the same direction as mine.”
A proposal to go home together after a long time.
There was no particular reason to refuse, so Jaeyoung nodded without thinking.
“okay. good.”
Without even imagining what kind of crazy situation this decision would lead to.
