The Chaebeol’s Youngest Son Chapter 324

[324]The time of bondage ends like a thunderbolt. 2

“Send one copy to all the heads of media companies and ask them to attach two reporters to each of them who will go to the United States with them. “I figured out the number of reporters and applied for a charter flight with the airline.”

“Private plane… ?”

“We will travel with reporters. “Prepare accordingly.”

“yes. “Director.”

“And team leader Seok-ho Shin and his teammates will be with us on this trip to the United States. “Prepare like that.”

“yes? ah… . All right.”

Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seok was momentarily embarrassed, but quickly regained his composure. I think he read my thoughts without me having to tell him.

“And while I’m away, Assistant Manager Kim is enjoying some free time. “I’ve been giving you so much trouble these days.”

“no. How dare you take your time during this important time? it’s okay. I will take leave after seeing you sitting in the chairman’s office. “Hehe.”

I didn’t say that I would have much more free time from then on, but just smiled. How much time does it take to become president and build a perfect fortress?

As I boarded the private plane with HW Automotive CEO Cho Dae-ho, I heard reporters making noise.

“Isn’t there more people gathered than during the president’s trip?”

“It’s natural because I provide much more news than the president.”

“It’s not rice cake? “Hehe.”

As the two of us entered first class, Team Leader Shin Seok-ho and the team members who were waiting bowed.

“This business trip is very much a vacation to everyone who has worked hard. And unlike former Chairman Jin Young-jun, I don’t worry too much about protocol, so everyone can relax.”

“Thank you, Director. But do you think you should say something to the reporters? I’m just waiting for the manager… .”

Team leader Shin Seok-ho said while looking at President Cho’s eyes.

“Team Manager Shin convey this on your behalf. Please write exactly what you saw and heard. “I don’t want to oversell it.”

“All right.”

When Team Leader Shin bowed his head and left, all of the team members also left.

Reporters will never be able to write exaggerated articles. Because a story that is difficult to believe even with accurate facts will begin.

Of course, the reporters who thought we were going to New York were curious when they found out that our destination was California, but when the two people appeared while having dinner together in the hotel banquet hall, their curiosity disappeared and they could not hide their astonishment.

“Howard! “How long has it been since this?”

“If you don’t remember, ask Google. haha.”

Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin hugged me tightly, and reporters’ camera flashes continued to explode.

There was no time to question their appearance. They will first send photos to headquarters and post articles on the Internet with catchy titles.

From now on, it is a real-time transmission battle. Profit varies depending on who attracts more clicks.

When I was about to take a picture so as not to miss our chatting, Team Leader Shin Seok-ho stepped forward.

“There will be a formal conference time after the meal. Until then, everyone please turn off your cameras. Otherwise, you will receive a return ticket.”

In response to Team Leader Shin’s threat, the reporters lowered their cameras and waited for our meal to end.

After the meal, the three of us sat down on the platform prepared in the banquet hall.

“Now, ask a question.”

It was a moment when reporters from small media outlets were struck with regret and wondered why they had not learned English sooner. American correspondents asked questions in English.

“Please tell me about the relationship between you two and Jin Do-jun.”

Sergey Brin took the microphone.

“When we were preparing to start a business in the garage, the angel who appeared with wings was 20-year-old Howard. “I invested a whopping $30 million under unconventional conditions after looking at just one algorithmic paper.”

“It is no exaggeration to say that Howard is the unsung founder of Google.”

Larry Page told me exactly what my role was, but all the reporters were interested in was money.

“What are those extraordinary conditions?”

“They handed over voting rights to us and asked only for non-interference in management and our average share. For $30 million back then, we would have sold our souls. haha.”

“So, are you saying that Jin Do-jun is now the majority shareholder of Google?”

“Miracle Investment owns a 6.8% stake.”

Since it was already known that Miracle’s majority shareholder was me, reporters were busy searching Google’s stock price and calculating how much my share was worth.

Currently, he is the majority shareholder of a top company worth about 10 trillion won, but we don’t know how many times it will increase in the future.

When a scoop bigger than who would become the president of Korea broke out here, the reporters just let out exclamations with expressions of complete disbelief.

Questions about starting a business and investment continued, and stories that were no different from old legends came out non-stop.

A reporter with a keen eye turned his attention to Cho Dae-ho, president of HW Automotive.

“Does President Cho’s presence here have anything to do with Google?”

President Cho also feels proud of having traveled a long way. He held the microphone and spoke slowly.

“Our HW car played a small role in Google’s secret project. “I am here today to sign that contract.”

“Cars and Google are difficult to connect easily. Could you please explain in more detail?”

“As I said, it’s a secret project. “Google will decide the timing of the announcement.”

The moment this article comes out, HW stock price will skyrocket. But it’s not over yet. Because I didn’t put on this show to brag about my money with Google stock.

“We plan to discuss the use of Sunyang Electronics’ components in various hardware development projects at Google in the future. “This is the main purpose of this visit to the United States.”

As soon as I picked up the microphone, the reporters’ flashes started again.

“Soonyang Electronics is currently headed by Chairman Jin Young-jun. “Have you two discussed it?”

“Does Chairman Jin Young-jun have time to worry about business right now?”

The reporters burst out laughing. Reporters also know full well that he is about to be summoned by the prosecution.

“Then, even if you are qualified to replace Shunyang Electronics… … .”

“Do qualifications matter? This is a business that does not know how much profit it will generate in the future. If I get good results, Sunyang Electronics will also welcome it. and… . Aren’t I the only one left? haha.”

The reporter understood what I meant and asked a question.

“Are you, by any chance, aiming to fill Chairman Jin Young-jun’s vacant position?”

“Why would I be so sad that I would rob an empty house? However, if shareholders really want it, they will not hesitate. Honestly, is it anyone but me? “Who will fill that empty spot?”

An article was drawn to fill the front page of tomorrow’s newspaper.

“Jin Do-jun, the youngest member of the Soonyang family, declares his bid for the chairmanship of Soonyang Electronics Group!”

There was no place for Korean reporters on the second stage. This is because the American media has already taken control of Intel’s convention center.

Reporters witnessed the moment when Intel acquired a small Israeli company they had never heard of, but they had no idea why they were here to watch.

What they confirmed was that Intel acquired an Israeli company whose identity was difficult to identify for a whopping $15 billion, or 15 trillion in Korean money.

However, the reporters who followed me were not surprised as they had already become accustomed to numbers in the trillions.

However, when Dr. Amnon Shashua, the founder and CEO of Mobileye, an Israeli company that was involved in today’s contract, appeared and was happy to see me as if he had met his lost brother, I pressed the shutter button again.

“… He came to the school, invested $15 million, and then disappeared. Howard may be the most generous and forward-thinking investor in the world. “I was also surprised to see the news yesterday that Howard was Google’s first investor.”

“Then what happens to Jin Do-jun’s shares in Mobileye?”

“60%. “We made a 100-fold profit in 10 years.”

Following Dr. Shashua’s explanation, reporters flooded me with questions.

“Mr. Jin Do-jun. “Can you tell me what your investment criteria are?”

“We invest in companies that will change the world under unconventional conditions. You probably already know Google, and Mobileye is a company that will change the future of automobiles. So, we will sign a technology contract with HW Automotive. “The conditions for acquisition by Intel are already in place.”

“Since HW Group’s holding company is Miracle, is it safe to say that HW Motors is Jin Do-jun’s company?”

“Structure-wise, yes, but as you know, I like the professional management system. Sunyang also nags a lot of financial affiliates, but the rest of the affiliates only check on their performance.”

“Are you also considering the integration of HW Group and Sunyang Group?”

“We are in the process of identifying the synergies of integration. “If efficiency can be improved even a little, of course we should do it.”

The headline in tomorrow’s newspaper is the merger of HW and Sunyang Group.

Additionally, an article will appear saying that the companies Jin Do-jun cares most about are electronics and automobiles.

“Mr. Jin Do-jun. “Can you tell me which investment has the highest rate of return?”

“It’s not about the investment value, but just the amount… ?”

“yes. I’m a bit cautious because it’s an interest-oriented question, but… .”

Aren’t interesting questions the type of news people like the most?

“Oh, there is one. I have invested in derivatives… . About 1,300 times in a week? I invested in the Japanese stock market, but now I can’t remember exactly how much. A few years ago, the financial statement said it was 7.0 trillion yen… . Because I don’t really care… .”

Looking at the reporters who had forgotten to take dictation, I was convinced that the show was a success at this level.

If Japan made tens of trillions of dollars, wouldn’t it be more satisfying news than a victory in the soccer game between Korea and Japan?

There were more reporters waiting for me at Incheon Airport than the reporters accompanying me.

The media wrote articles about Google as if it were a Korean company, and I was treated like Park Chan-ho or Choo Shin-soo, who had won the major league.

In particular, Hanseong Ilbo was publishing articles comparing me and Jin Young-jun side by side every day. The article disparaged Jin Young-Jun more harshly than comparing professionals and amateurs, adults and children.

This is why I am afraid of my wife breaking up. It was almost like I could feel that it was poisonous.

Now that the makeup to appear on stage is over, only the final battle remains.

“hey! “I’m pooping because I’m too tired, but are you just playing Geumuihwanhyang?”

“Where can you get so arrogant on the subject of evaluation and inspection? The coordination has been completed by the higher-ups. “I put a lot of effort into making you a star prosecutor.”

Prosecutor Kim Ji-hoon, who came to my house in the evening, was cruel for no reason.

“What a star, I’m shaking to death. I get a lot of phone calls that I don’t recognize and people are always waiting for me in front of my house. It feels like someone is following me. “I don’t know if we could end up in a terrorist attack like this.”

“Is there even a fool who terrorizes a scarecrow? Since he is the prosecutor in charge, he is trying to appease him. “It’s like a live broadcast with the media watching, so if you lower the sentence in court, you can’t get it off.”

I had to reassure my scared classmate.

“And the people following you are mine. “I added it just in case.”

Prosecutor Kim blinked for a moment and then clicked his tongue.

“hey! Why are your people so amateur? “I noticed you following me too?”

“You’re following me around on purpose. That way you can’t approach it carelessly. “Learn something.”

Jihoon Kim said, feeling relaxed as they talked about various things.

“Yeong-jun Jin will appear tomorrow. Representative Lee Sang-il, the Minister of Health and Welfare, and the chairman of the pension fund were all arrested… . Will an arrest warrant be issued for Jinyoung-jun Jin?”

“Are you ignoring my in-laws?”

“I know… . “That side isn’t normal either.”

“I am no more ordinary. The judge in charge of the warrant is also a human being. Do you think I would just sit back and watch?”

“Were you a bribe? That judge was known for his uprightness… ?”

Kim Ji-hoon was very surprised.

“There is a weight that even bamboo cannot bear and breaks. The weight was made with money. “There will definitely be a warrant.”
