[026]A miraculous investment company 2.
I looked closely at the expressions of the five people, including Oh Se-hyeon.
Oh Se-hyun looks puzzled.
Uncle is out. I don’t know much about the situation in the US. I guess I lived in Korea too long.
The reactions of the three men were varied. The one who shakes his head, the one who starts thinking deeply, the one who is surprised.
The person who showed the most immediate reaction was the woman.
“How… how do you know… .”
As she stammered while looking at me, she turned her gaze to Oh Se-hyeon. She realized too late that she was speaking to a child who couldn’t even understand English.
Oh Se-hyeon, who already knew what questions they were asking, spoke urgently.
“Dojun. “How did you know about Dell computers?”
How do I know? I know because I tried it.
Of course, something different came out of my mouth than I thought.
“Didn’t I tell you? A person who earned $2,000 by selling stamps at the age of 12 and a fortune by selling newspaper subscriptions when he was in high school. “That person is Michael Dell.”
“ah… !”
Oh Se-hyeon snapped his fingers as if he remembered the conversation we had.
Michael Dell, born in 1965, is a person who clearly shows that even making money is an innate talent.
My friend’s father was a stamp collector, and he discovered that stamp transactions were conducted through auctions and that auction brokers’ commissions were high.
From then on, Dell visited stamp collectors, compiled a list of stamps he wanted to buy and sold, and even placed advertisements in magazines using the money he earned serving at a Chinese restaurant.
He became a stamp dealer by eliminating the bubble of auction fees and connecting sellers and buyers directly. At the age of only 12.
When I was in high school, I delivered newspapers, and when I found out that I received incentives for each subscriber, I started looking for subscribers.
In general, if you subscribe to a newspaper, you will continue to read it without changing the newspaper. However, when I move, I sign up for a newspaper subscription again.
Dell paid attention to this phenomenon.
He toured courthouses in Houston, Texas, obtained lists of recently married people and focused on them.
The incentive Dell received that year was a whopping $18,000.
It was more than the annual salary of a high school teacher, and Dell used this money to purchase a BMW car.
Simplification of distribution process, intensive marketing.
This was consistent with Dell Computer’s business style in the future.
Of course, this fact is not known now. It will be known after Michael Dell is rejected.
“So you’re willing to spend a lot of money just on stories about that person’s childhood?”
“He already made money at my age. There is no rich grandfather like me. “Of course a person like that would make a lot of money, right?”
Oh Se-hyeon looked at me intently for a moment and then spoke to the employees.
“Dell Computers, bring me all the information about Michael Dell. Right Now.”
Everyone is professional.
When the boss named Oh Se-hyeon gave an order, he immediately sat down in front of the IBM PC AT and inserted a 2-megabyte floppy disk.
If you decide, follow it. I just do my best without any complaints or doubts.
I felt proud once again.
My life is over after living as a salaried worker.
Now there are as many as four soldiers receiving my salary. The races and skin colors are different.
They even forgot about my existence and focused only on finding information.
It was impossible to look at it happily or sit still for a moment.
I went into the bathroom on one side of the office and made some coffee. The scent of coffee spread through the office.
They carried five cups of coffee on trays and placed them on their respective desks.
“Oh, thanks.”
They seemed to find my behavior cute and gently patted my head.
They still do not recognize me as the majority shareholder and owner of this company. Well, we’ll know enough in a few years.

When I returned to the hotel, my mother and older brother were nowhere to be seen. Since I had a guide, I think I went into the city.
Feeling a little tired, I was about to lie down on the bed, but Oh Se-hyun threw a pile of documents on the bed first.
Even though there was sufficient discussion in the office, it seems like they are reviewing it one more time until the end.
I’m embarrassed. I still have a long way to go.
“uncle. I guess you’re still not convinced? Everyone working there seemed positive earlier… … .”
“How do you know that? “Do you understand English?”
Oops.
“Oh, no. Just the expression… Everyone is smiling… .”
“hmm… . I have never been so sure in my life. “I just always have doubts.”
He speaks without taking his eyes off the documents.
Always suspicious. It was something unexpected.
“Whether it is a business, project, or investment, there is no such thing as 100% certainty. Don’t trust anyone who says that. He is an irresponsible guy. Work to minimize doubt and anxiety. “That’s the job.”
This guy, it’s clear what I’m telling you to listen to now… . Have you changed your mind? Does this mean that you will no longer be treated like a child?
Anyway, I learned it while dealing with top-notch people.
I learned nothing.
All I know is what I learned through experience and effort.
High-level content was only shared in their own world and did not escape to the outside world.
I just ran forward to do what they told me to do well. Not knowing the real reason or purpose of what they were asking me to do meant that I had learned nothing.
“Think of a scale. Put good and bad results on a scale and measure the difference. I only start when the good outcome outweighs the bad outcome by more than nine times. You set your own standards. “How many times should I multiply it?”
This means a 90% success rate. It’s quite high.
This is the natural attitude of an asset manager who invests with his clients’ money, not his own money.
How should I set my standards?

While I was immersed in these worries, Oh Se-hyeon began to organize the documents.
“Dojun. “You stay here with your mother.”
“Where are you going?”
“I guess I’ll have to go to Texas.”
“Do you want to meet in person?”
“I guess so. The performance is good, but the scale is small. “Even if you try to throw a money bomb, this company won’t be able to handle it.”
I tried to throw away the entire 15 million dollars, but it was impossible.
Last year, Dell Computer already received $30 million in investment. Of course, I don’t remember all these details.
This is a story I heard when people were discussing data at work.
By any chance, is it too late?
Should we turn to Microsoft stock, which is only up about 50 times?
When this thought crossed my mind, I hit my head.
You’re still this weak!
I was so ashamed of my weakness that I looked for another way as soon as the possibility seemed distant without even trying.
“I’ll go too.”
“what?”
“He’s the person I like… . “I want to meet you in person.”
“hmm… . Well then. Even if I buy a snack worth 1,000 won, I see it in person before buying it. “After seeing it in person, I’m curious about your thoughts.”
Se-Hyeon Oh immediately booked a ticket to Texas and a hotel, then contacted the company to set up a meeting with Dell Computer.
“uncle. Did you make an appointment to meet? already?”
Clearly, nothing was confirmed in the content of the call. But Oh Se-hyeon was already packing.
“You can’t give up just because they say no. If you don’t meet me, I’ll have to invade your company. “There’s nothing to lose, right?”
In this case, it looks like a typical Korean bulldozer.
Ultimately, it must change according to the time, place, and situation.
Humans can take on an endless variety of appearances.
***
It is ranked as the world’s most valuable sports team by Forbes magazine and is the home stadium of the iconic American football team, the Dallas Cowboy.
A land area 25% larger than the territory of France.
It’s Texas.
We arrived at Bergstrom International Airport in Austin, Texas and found a rental car office.
Oh Se-hyeon called the company from the rental car office, confirmed the meeting appointment, and got into the car without saying a word.
I thought I was going to Dell Computer headquarters or a hotel, but the car took a wrong turn.
“uncle. “Where are you going now?”
“Mt. Bonnell.”
“yes?”
“If you look down from Covert Park, which is at the top, you can see all of Austin at a glance. Looking down at Lake Austin is a breathtaking view. You can’t miss it. “I’m especially lucky because the weather is nice today.”
Texas weather is famous for being unpredictable. Some days, the sun shines all day long, but it rains again within a few days, and sometimes it rains and then clears up several times in a day.
“Have you been there?”
“no. Just at the airport. “It was in the tourist guidebook?”
It’s an expression on his face that makes it hard to tell whether he’s a shrewd person who actively utilizes his spare time, or whether he’s just trying to calm his mind because his meeting schedule didn’t go through.
I also sat back comfortably on the seat and began to enjoy the view of Austin.
I wasn’t anxious about whether or not we would be able to meet.
Oh Se-hyeon somehow had faith. I’m sure we’ll be able to meet.
If the meeting fails, I will stay here in Texas and demand that Oh Se-hyun and Miracle Investment employees make the meeting happen.
Now I am not a servant, but a master. We must change from the mindset of a servant to that of a master.
But I also knew what I had to do. In order to become a proud owner, one must also have a strong body.
“Huh, huh… … . Yes, uncle. “How many stairs does this have?”
“that… … . well. It’s my first time too… … . “Huh, huh.”
The two of us were exhausted as we climbed up and down the steep limestone stairs that started from the parking lot on the side of the mountain and we couldn’t tell the end.
It wasn’t a bad thing as I was able to let go of my nervousness for a little while.
* * *
The two of us, exhausted, unpacked our bags at the Hyatt Regency, lay down on the bed, and waited for the phone call.
“Dojun.”
“yes.”
“Dell Computer’s investment potential is low.”
“Because 30 million dollars has already been invested?”
Investing in people who are cold and hungry. Investing in someone who has a warm back and a full stomach is no different from forcing them to feed you another bowl of porridge.
“As expected, I understand you well. If it had been last year, that guy named Del would have been waiting impatiently for us. This is the timing. Investing is all about finding the right moment. “Time to get in, time to get out.”
“We’re late now.”
“I guess so.”
Oh Se-hyeon, who was lying down with his arm pillowed, had a very stiff expression.
At this time, the phone rang.
Oh Se-hyeon jumped up and picked up the receiver.
I guess they made an appointment because they said Yes, U-hum, Good, All Right.
“What?”
Oh Se-hyeon’s eyes suddenly widen and she confirms it again.
what? Is it wrong?
Oh Se-hyun put down the receiver and shrugged his shoulders.
“done. “I will meet you.”
I clap my hands without realizing it! I hit it.
“however… This, haha.”
“Why are you doing this?”
“I can’t make time for you, but I’m saying we can have lunch together tomorrow and talk about it?”
“Good for you.”
“that is… I’m eating a hamburger. Long with Wendy’s.”
Oh Se-hyeon tilted his head as he looked at my bewildered, dazed state.
“why? “Don’t you like burgers?”
There are people like me who hate hamburgers. Moreover, since business meetings are always framed as good restaurants, I couldn’t help but look blank.
