12 Hours After Chapter 108

I carefully took the soup to my mouth . I was a little nervous, as I was not very good at lying . But if I ate it, I had to say it was good whether it would taste good or not . By the way, I said it from the bottom of my heart, “It's delicious!”

Lee Ah-young, who was watching my face carefully, smiled brightly, “Really?”

I said, nodding my head, “Yes, where did you learn to do soybean paste soup while you were in America?”

“I just learned from the Internet . ”

I'd been living on my own for almost ten years . 'It never tasted like this when I tried…'

She certainly seemed to have been born with a gold hand in cooking . I had breakfast with a simple side dish, including soybean paste soup, sunny-side-up fries, and kimchi .

“It's all good . Did you learn all this by yourself when you went abroad to study?”

“No . I bought most of my food when I went abroad to study . I liked the American style . But when I came back to Korea, I remembered the home meals my mom used to cook… and I've tried this and that . ”

“Well… I see . ”

I had breakfast with her like that . It was good to have a girlfriend right next door . Of course, sometimes it was a little burdensome . I even drank coffee from her mixer . In the meantime, the alarm went off . It was 8:50 a . m .

“I'll go . It's time to work . ”

“Can't you just take a day off and hang out with me?”

I shook my head, “No, I can't . ”

'If I don't work, I miss a few hundred thousand dollars a day . Even though I've already become wealthy, with hundreds of millions of dollars, I can't afford to let go of my work . Will I be able to give up this even if I become worth a few billion dollars? Probably not…'

Consoling her, as she was slightly downcast, I said, “When the market ends, let's go to the movies in the afternoon . ”

“Really?”

“Yes, the movie theater is right next to us anyway . ”

“Then what will we see? What kind of genre do you like, oppa?”

“Anything . I don't care much . ”

“Then I will choose what I want to see . ”

“Yes,” I agreed thoughtlessly, then left her room and came back to my own apartment . The computer was already on . I sat down and accepted the email, 12 Hours After .

“Umm…” These days, I did not take the news 12 Hours After into account much . The running money was so big that I didn't pay much attention to the short-term news 12 Hours After . These days, my main focus was on the news 12 Days After or 12 Weeks After . They would give me enough time to analyze the power of the news and to gather more shares .

I was humming and pressing the news 12 Days After . By the way, some interesting news came out .

[Politics – The constitutional amendment should not be delayed any longer . A proposal was made for a simultaneous vote with the general election . ]

[Economy – The stock price of Hyun Young Pharmaceutical surged according to the change in the largest shareholder . ]

[Society – An intensely hateful society . What's the problem?]

On the Economy category, there was news about Hyun Young Pharmaceutical .

“It's our news, isn't it?”

I clicked on it .

[Hyun Young Pharmaceutical has been on a sharp rise on news that it will change its largest shareholder . Invictus Investment (CEO Han Sang-hoon), a mid-sized investment company, recently completed a large-scale stock purchase, followed by a third party-allocated paid-in capital increase to become the largest shareholder of Hyun Young Pharmaceutical…]

I could see my name in the news, too . I grinned . 'Now I'm also in the future news . '

I felt like I was becoming the main character in the world . If I made ten, twenty, fifty, and a hundred companies that I could rule here, I would be on the news even if I didn't like it . If I searched for myself in People Search, I might be able to get some news like [CEO Han Sang-hoon's business trip to China…] and [CEO Han Sang-hoon's investment is on the right track again . ]

'Not only that, right now I am young, and I see only 12 Months After, but when I get older, if I receive the news 12 Years After, I may get the news like [Chairman Han Sang-hoon dies of lung cancer . ]

'Then, twelve years early, I can take a lung cancer test, prevent it first, or have surgery . In the case of lung cancer, the survival rate is more than seventy percent if found in Stage One, but less than five if found in Stage Four . I'll live a few more years than I originally could . It's easy to avoid a traffic accident by simply changing my schedule for that day .

'All right . All right . It's going well . ' I also typed in my name in People Search, with that idea .

[Han Sang-hoon, the representative of a party, says the Blue House has to show willingness for the constitutional amendment . ]

However, I was still behind a politician Han Sang-hoon . In terms of recognition, he seemed to be a mountain which I needed to cross over .

'A politician versus a businessman… I can't help it, but… As a CEO of a company, if I were compared to the representative of a party, I will have to become a chairman of the nation's top five conglomerates . Will it take ten years?

'It won't be that far . No, ten years is just the time it takes in light of what I have in terms of my current Diamond Class . The higher the class, the shorter the time it will take to establish my empire .

'All right, two weeks from now, it will be done .

'The contract will be concluded next week, and the paid-in capital increase will be completed next week, too . When I consider the last time, when I got to Diamond Class, I will receive a “Class Notice” twelve hours from the time the stock is fully transferred . I'll be stronger when I get the Master Class . '

“All right, here… I am going to buy six hundred thousand dollars worth at the closing price, and it's over . ”

I got up from my seat with my last order today . I was supposed to go out with Lee Ah-young after the market closed: a movie theater date . I opened the door right away and rang the doorbell next door, Lee Ah-young's . In fact, I knew her password thanks to her friend Sarah, but I didn't let her know that because she had never told me directly .

“I am done with my work today . ”

“Really? Let's go right away . It's a 3:50 movie . ”

“What kind of movie?”

“It's 'I'm Going to See You Tomorrow,' a romantic movie . ”

When I heard it, I said, slightly opening my mouth, “Ahh… I'm Going to See You Tomorrow…?”

“I'm Going to See You Tomorrow” was a film starring Oh Hyun-joo . A few days ago, it was mentioned by President Kwon Oh-hyuk at the regular report . He reported that the preview was good . Oh Hyun-joo was my favorite actress and I said to President Kwon Oh-hyuk, “I'll make sure I see it . ” But for some reason, I felt uncomfortable going to see it with my girlfriend, Lee Ah-young .

Lee Ah-young, who looked at my eyes, said to me, “Don't you like romantic movies?”

“No… No . It's okay . Let's go see it . ”

“Uh…” She looked up at me like I was strange, but she didn't ask me any more questions .

Oh Hyun-joo was up on the big screen . She looks back at the male main character with a pure face and speaks her lines, “Tomorrow… I am going to see you tomorrow . ”

I watched the movie without touching the soda I had bought . I had two thoughts while watching the movie .

'First, Oh Hyun-joo's beauty is great, and she's really good at acting . I've known her since she was unknown, but she seems to be doing better recently . She plays the main character of the tragic actress, and she seems to have become the character herself .

'The second thought is rather a snobbish one: “No, this…Who is the production company? If it's a listed company, the stock price is going to jump . ” This is definitely a big hit . Just as I benefited from the zombie movie “Train to Seoul” in the past, I can earn a few million dollars if I invest in the production company . Oh's agency, OH Entertainment, is also likely to rise a lot, before the surge of Idol Manager 108 . It's amazing . '

After the movie, the lights came on and the ending credits went up . I saw Lee Ah-young sitting next to me . “That's funny, isn't it?”

However, she was not able to answer at all . She was covering her mouth and crying a little . I looked around, found a napkin that came with the nachos I had bought when I came into the theater, and handed it to her . She wiped it around her eyes and told me . “It's so… moving, oppa, isn't it?”

“Sure . ”

I thought I was being a little bit parched . With a tragic story of lovers, a touching reunion, and a break-up again, the wonderful story, I just thought about who the production company was…

'Now I can't cry at anything…' I waited for her to stop crying, thinking about it . After a while, I left the theater with her arms crossed . She still didn't seem to be out of touch .

“It was really fun, oppa!”

“Yes, let's come and see it again . ”

“Yes!”

It was only 5:30 now that the movie was over . Now we would have to go to dinner .

'What shall we have for dinner?' I was thinking of it, but she asked me . “By the way, the actress was really good at acting . What's her name, oppa?”

“Ah… Oh Hyun-joo . ” For some reason, just saying the name to a girlfriend next to me made me feel a little guilty . Maybe it's because she was my ideal type .

“Really? I've only seen her in commercials… and I've never seen her act before, but she's quite good at acting . ”

I nodded . “Uh… she's famous . ”

“Really? What else did she shoot? Do you know her well?”

I already knew her personally and I decided to speak frankly, “Oh… That's right . She's actually a member of OH Entertainment, our subsidiary . The old drama, 'The Uncle of You and I' is also famous . ”

Of course, I did not say either she was my ideal type, or that I had saved her from danger .

“Oh, I see… She is from your company . The Uncle of You and I? I'll have to see that, too . ”

I nodded, then quickly turned the subject around . “Yes . By the way, where are we going to eat today?”

A week later, a public announcement was finally made .

[The third party-allocated paid-in capital increase is completed, accompanied by a change in Hyun Young Pharmaceutical's majority shareholder . ]

At the same time as the disclosure, the stock price of Hyun Young Pharmaceutical jumped twelve percent . I went to the stock bulletin board .

– Wow, is this investment of Invictus Investment real? Let's go to the double . -

– Who is Invictus Investment? What is it?-

– This is the company that earned a lot with the reverse betting on Bisang Construction . -

– They had a big hit with Kai Games . That's great . -

When we took over a company before, they used to say -Who the hell is this company we have never seen and heard about?-

And the stock price did not go up, but it fell . Compared to now, it had totally changed .

– Is this the company run by the stock genius, CEO Han Sang-hoon, right? It's already fixed to earn double . -

-Han Sang Hoon must have smelled money again . But it's not a game company or an entertainment company, but a pharmaceutical company?-

– He's a real genius . He doesn't seem to care about what the company is . -

There were many comments praising me on the bulletin board . Now, my reputation seemed to be spreading to stock investors as well . It should be, because Invictus Investment was becoming an investment company which had never lost since I first set it up .

'OK, now I'm slowly gaining fame . ' I laid back a little in the chair while watching the bulletin board .

A week later . I finally got it: the Master Class Guide!
