A Lie Has Turned Into Reality - Chapter 310



Only Ran(o)vel dot com

SW Group headquarters office.

“There really isn’t a single bit of flesh left.”

As I read the report that came from the secretary’s office, I was impressed by Cha Tae-hoon’s neat work.

Not only did he sweep up all the call options that were available on the market, he also acted like a fool so well that HSBC concluded the deal without any suspicion.

A pile of options that are piling up without any answers.

At this point, HSBC will never be able to get out of the crisis through normal means.

“I guess they’re starting to buy now.”

Even if Cha Tae-hoon has many options, there should be a moderate amount.

The only option they have is to buy back the stocks that are due to mature as soon as possible.

But that won’t be easy either.

If we try to buy stocks that have been released to the market now, there won’t be much left.

However, there are no signs that the stock price will stop rising, so we can just sit there and wait for the right time.

This is a situation with no answer.

Their best bet at this point is—

“It’s time to make contact with PVG.”

“That’s right. Buying the shares currently held by the board of directors is the only solution in the current situation.”

“By the way, Chairman, when are you planning to reveal the short selling report?”


Park Yoon-seong, who had been watching quietly, approached me quietly and asked me.

“That wasn’t made to expose anything.”


“Yes? Then why…”

HSBC is already in a corner.

There’s no point in pushing any further here, and if you give up and just throw the boat away, the groundwork you’ve built up so far will be meaningless.

“Have you been in contact with PVG?”


“Of course. We scared him as you instructed, and he is now actively cooperating. He is currently refusing to receive any contact other than ours.”

Not only did they sell insider information, they also manipulated the stock price of a billion dollar company.

Of course, if you don’t want to fall behind, you have no choice but to listen carefully.

‘I’m sure the HSBC guys are burning inside by now.’

I need to get my stock back as soon as possible, but PVG has cut off contact.

That’s not all.

Even now, PVG’s stock price continues to soar without end.

Short selling is ultimately a war of money.

Whoever can spend their opponent’s cash faster will take the throne.

And of course.

Among existing companies, there is no company with more cash than SW Group.

I smiled faintly.

“You must have already sensed defeat.”

“You would have known a long time ago. You would have contacted PVG as a last resort.”

“Now that we’ve confirmed that you’ve lost contact, the only choice left is…”

“It’s obvious.”

You’ll soon be begging for your life.

Because now there’s no place left to hang on to.

“Besides, how could the hyenas of Wall Street not bite this bait? This is one of the few opportunities to empty out the magic pockets that HSBC has accumulated over the years? Since I am the first to step forward, they have a good reason to do so. From their perspective, it is literally a situation where they just need to put a spoon on a well-prepared table.”

Park Yoon-seong began to open his eyes wide as if he was starting to get the hang of it.

“Call the White House and get this information straight. If possible, ask them to provide information on HSBC and Jacob Miller.”

“Shall I convey it without missing anything?”


“Just relay it as is. They probably already figured out the situation anyway. Maybe HSBC lobbied in advance.”

“Then I will make sure to convey it without fail.”

Squeak.

I leaned back in my executive chair.

“Then, Mr Chairman, what should we do with the HSBC short selling report?”

“You just need to flesh out the skeleton based on the materials provided by the White House. Package it in a somewhat threatening way and send it to the HSBC secretariat.”


“I will handle it that way.”

“Once we get a response, we can open the negotiating table. Until then, we don’t need to respond to any requests.”

It is necessary to create appropriate fear for a desirable transaction.

The key is to offer a helping hand in situations where it seems there is no answer.

“The negotiating party is the PVG shares they hold. Get them all for as cheap as possible. It would be even better if they could also get the HSBC shares.”

Park Yoon-seong nodded and wrote down the instructions I gave him on a memo.

And then he asked carefully.

“What happens if I resist?”

“What happened?”


widely-

I put the document I was reading on the desk.

And at the same time, he pretended to cut his throat with his hand.

“Then you should die.”

****

— Why is HSBC suddenly doing this?

N Minus 5%? Suddenly?

n Was there any other bad news?

N That’s out of the blue. Is there a report on it?

ㄴ Looks like someone is short selling lol

Really? My balance is weird.

N Who are you?

N What, you’re short selling the fund opened by Kim Seong-woo?

you ??????

Is this true? Kim Sung-woo is short selling?

A stock community in the United States.

News spread that Kim Seong-woo was short-selling HSBC.

—Why all of a sudden?

— Is Kim Sung-woo crazy?

— Is HSBC’s finances in good shape?

— Is this related to Kim Seong-woo’s recent purchase of PVG stocks?

N What does that matter?


ㄴ It was HSBC that was shorting PVG.

Huh? Really?

So, Kim Seong-woo is buying PVG stocks that HSBC is shorting, and at the same time, he is shorting HSBC?

n What’s going on between HSBC and Kim Sung-woo?

N That sounds plausible, right?

HSBC, PVG, and Kim Sung-woo.

Netizens continued to speculate based on their connection.

— There must be some conflict of interest that the ants don’t know about.

n If Kim Sung-woo openly showed his selling position, it seems like he’s warning us?


ㄴ HSBC has always been a hot topic

N Is the big one coming soon?

ㄴ I already sold everything I had and went all in on the Kim Sungwoo fund ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

No need to make it complicated lol If you put it in Kim Sung-woo’s fund, you are guaranteed profit

N Believe me~ If you believe, you will be blessed~ If you don’t believe, your head will break~

What started out as a small spark began to burn brightly.

At the same time, HSBC was also in trouble.

“Is the SW Group secretary’s office still silent?”

“Yes, they just keep repeating that Chairman Kim Sung-woo is currently out of the office.”

“Fuck…!!”

We need to resolve the situation as soon as possible.

In other words, negotiations with the SW Group had to be concluded somehow, but they started avoiding HSBC by making up ridiculous excuses for whatever reason.

Then one day.

“What?! A report came from the SW Group?!”


“Yes, but the content is…”

“What is it? Tell me straight!!”

“That, the scandal that we colluded with the PVG board to manipulate the stock price…”

“This, this crazy human being—!!”

They started making blatant threats.

This is not a simple circumstantial report, but a report that is presented in front of the victim with fairly plausible evidence.

“Sir, Eric Musk took aim at HSBC on social media 30 minutes ago.”


“What? Why is that crazy kid suddenly interfering with me again!!”


“In addition, the Ministry of Finance has officially requested a separate interview with you.”

“……her.”

“The short selling offensive is also serious. A 10% drop from the previous day in just 3 hours after the market opened…”

“Ahhhhhh!!!!”

Jacob returned to his office, threw his coat on the chair, and roughly brushed back his neatly groomed bangs.

“shit!!”

Bad news is pouring in from all sides.

Option expiration is approaching, and so is the short sale redemption due date.

The biggest problem here is that the opponent is the SW Group.

What if they decide to expose the naked short selling and stock manipulation scandal?

“…There’s no answer.”

There is literally no answer.

The moment a scandal breaks out, the White House’s sword will turn on them, and they will certainly be torn to pieces along with the media’s outrage and a massive audit.

The same goes for the home base, the UK.

There is no country on Earth that is not under the influence of the SW Group.

He closed his eyes tightly.

Just thinking about it made my stomach feel like it was slowly melting from the stress.

“Why, now?”

There must have been a time when it was exposed, right?

Why do you still keep making threats like this?

Oh, I get the gist.

I’m sure he’ll fan them to the brink of death and then take their loot one by one.

“This is fucking shit…”

They are talking to me.

If you don’t want to die, then just give up what you want.

This is a situation that would normally be laughed at.

What fearless human being would dare to touch Britain’s largest financial institution?

But this time, things are a little different.

The opponent is SW Group.

It is a conglomerate with the world’s best idiot as its representative, who can even burn down a country if he fails.

“ha ha ha…”

“Sir, what should I do…?”

His unfocused gaze was lost in the air.

You have to choose.

Just answer all the questions and give me what I want.

Or else, you can just tuck your tail between your legs and avoid the worst.

“Pass it over to them again.”

Jacob clenched his fist.

And then he spat it out as if he was chewing on something.

“… … I want to negotiate the stake.”

****

“… … ”

“… … ”

Inside the office, silence lingers.

Two men were sitting facing each other on an office sofa in the center of the office.

SW Group Chairman Kim Seong-woo.

And HSBC CEO, Jacob Miller.

Jacob was very nervous.

He was the type of person who would not be nervous even in front of the Minister of Finance, but the moment he met Kim Seong-woo’s chilling gaze, his momentum died down.

“I want to negotiate the stake.”

He even lowered his gaze.

I didn’t have the confidence to negotiate while facing the man known as the Grim Reaper of the financial world.

“I would like to hear more details.”

widely-

As Kim Sung-woo put the teacup down on the desk, his heart pounded as if it had burst out of his ribs.

“What do you want to negotiate?”

Kim Seong-woo tapped the desk with his fingertips.

My heart beats faster every time that creepy voice repeats.

“I don’t know if there’s anything specific we can negotiate with you.”

Jacob was so nervous that it was hard to breathe.

Every time his words trailed off, the hairs on his skin stood on end.

There was no pride left.

I was already in a situation where I was pushed to the edge and didn’t have the energy to care about my pride.

“… … Let me get straight to the point.”

“I’m listening.”

“Please tell us what conditions you want.”

Desired conditions.

He pulled out a sort of blank check.

An eerie silence hung over the office.

And after a while.

“first.”


Knock knock.

Kim Seong-woo got up from his seat, moved his shoes, and walked around the office.

“HSBC’s entire stake in PVG.”

Jacob swallowed hard.

Since this was something I had expected, I tried my best to remain calm.

“I am willing to accept those conditions.”

He opened his lips without hesitation.

Because once you’ve already decided to bow your head, there’s no time to waste worrying about it.

“I’ll pass it on.”

“It’s good to be able to communicate.”

“…thank you.”

Fuck, fuck, fuck!!

He endured it, swallowing the curses that were rising to the tip of his chin.

“I have a small favor to ask.”

“What is it?”


“We will not ask for anything in return for transferring our shares. No, we will transfer all the series copyrights that we own.”

“Hoo.”


“I just… ask for your understanding regarding the amount of options that the Chairman purchased.”

At that moment, Kim Seong-woo frowned.

“That’s a bit difficult.”

widely.

Kim Seong-woo, who was walking around the office, lightly hit the desk with his palm.


“I think you’re mistaken.”

“…yes?”

“This is not a negotiation. This is a notice. What I said is not up for negotiation. These are terms you must accept.”

A torrent of unrestrained verbal abuse pours out.

Every word pierced Jacob’s eardrums.

“There is only one condition I can promise.”

Gulp.

Blood flowed from his tightly clenched lips.

“I won’t kill you.”

I won’t kill you.

What that means is that they will at least overlook the exposure of the scandal ‘for now’.

“therefore.”

His ribs rose and fell with his heavy breathing.

The bloodshot eyes turned red.

“You just have to throw up everything you’ve eaten.”

Shh.

Kim Sung-woo’s mouth twisted violently.

“This little scammer.”
