◈ Episode 197: Setting a trap (1)

“Are you making good use of the gift you received?”

“You should think about the sincerity of the person who gave it to you. What did the wise man ride?”

Nam Woon-myeong glanced at Yun Se-bin.

“Hey, you still haven’t gotten out of the Benz? What are you going to do with what you received?”

“It doesn’t move in the parking lot.”

“Oh my, this is why you shouldn’t give gifts carelessly. You should give them to someone who knows how to use them.”

Of the three people who received the tea gift, Choi Da-eun seems to be using it the best.

Choi Da-eun looked at Yoon Se-bin and him with suspicious eyes.

“But how did the wise man come here? Were you invited?”

“no.”

“Ah! Sebin is here as your partner?”

“No. Today, Hyun Ah-sol is your partner.”

“Asol?”

Choi Da-eun suddenly frowned. It seems like she isn’t very close with Hyuna Sol.

As we entered the club, there were quite a few people gathered there.

There were probably about twenty people there. Since the club was rented out, all the people inside were children of wealthy families who had been invited.

Among them, there was a woman whose presence stood out. That woman was Hyun Ah-sol.

On a day like this, HyunA Sol was wearing a bright primary-colored one-piece dress like before. The white arms that were visible through the sleeveless dress and the slender legs revealed under the short skirt were so eye-catching that there was nowhere to look.

When Nam Woon-myung greeted him, Hyun Ah-sol smiled brightly and linked arms with him.

“You’re here? Today will be fun.”

For a moment, everyone’s eyes were focused on him. They were jealous of what kind of guy he was that was getting attention from the daughter of the Bukseong Group.

Likewise, Yoon Se-bin and Choi Da-eun were watching his actions with their brows furrowed. Nam Woon-myung slowly released her hand.

“Can I sit over there?”

Nam Yun-myeong sat at an empty table with a wine glass in his hand and watched the people.

Yoon Se-bin and Choi Da-eun were busy exchanging greetings. Naturally, there was no one for him to greet here.

Half of the people I saw at the previous opening ceremony were familiar to me, and the other half were people I was seeing for the first time.

I found Hyun Chang-min among those people. Hyun Chang-min was holding a glass of alcohol and chatting next to Yoon Se-bin.

Even without listening to it, I could tell what the conversation was about. It was about buying stocks in Bukseong Construction. I was so anxious that I came here to ask for advice.

After a while, Hyuna Sol sat down next to him holding a glass of wine.

“Thank you for coming.”

“What is it? I came to see what kind of meeting it is.”

HyunA Sol pointed to people and explained who they were.

Yoon Se-bin and Choi Da-eun soon joined the table where the two were sitting side by side.

In the center of the club, a man and a woman were greeting the guests. They were the ones hosting this gathering today.

“Cha Woo-chan from DH Group and Lee Eun-mi from Ilseong Group. They met through an introduction and dated for three years… Well, it’s a case where the views of both families matched well.”

HyunA Sol knew the two of them quite well. Cha Woo Chan and Lee Eun Mi were a fairly well-known couple within the business world.

In Nam Woon-myung’s eyes, the two looked good together. The tall, handsome Cha Woo-chan and the beautiful, virtuous Lee Eun-mi seemed like a perfect match.

“Would those two live well if they got married?”

To others, it may seem like a simple saying, but Nam Woon-myeong said it after reading the faces of two people, even if it wasn’t their fates. That’s why his assurance is different.

“Because the young men and women of that time were originally blind.”

Unlike HyunA Sol, who accepted it indifferently, Choi Da-eun’s eyes sparkled.

“Really? Does it really look like that?”

Choi Da-eun knows how accurate Nam Woon-myung’s words are. If he said he would die, didn’t he die within a day? And if he said he was a conman, he really was a conman.

“It’s a case where we bring out each other’s strengths and complement each other’s weaknesses. What is Mr. Cha Woo-chan doing now?”

“The Battlefield Division. We’re going to spin it off soon and grow it into DH Electronics.”

The electric vehicle business refers to the business related to the electric vehicle parts. It develops and manufactures parts such as automotive semiconductors, telematics, automotive displays, batteries, motors, and camera modules.

DH Group is the largest automobile company in Korea, but it does not have an electronics company within the group. To overcome this weakness, Cha Woo-chan, a member of the owner’s family, took charge of the electrical equipment division and led it.

“You’ve got a good business idea. Ilsung Group also has expertise in the electronics industry, right? So, it’s a good fit.”

“Hmm, really? Then, if I spin off DH Electronics, can I invest?”

Choi Da-eun showed enthusiasm.

“Not bad. But why don’t you invest more in Coffee World?”

“It works fine.”

As Nam Woon-myung was talking earnestly with Choi Da-eun, Hyun Ah-sol snorted.

At that moment, a voice struck his ear.

“Do you really think so?”

Nam Woon-myung raised his head and looked at the other person. It seemed like he had seen her somewhere… … After racking his brain for a while, Hyun Ah-sol spoke first.

“Why does Hansoo oppa start a fight as soon as he shows up?”

Only then did Nam Woon-myeong clearly recognize his opponent. It was Kang Han-soo, the president of MZ Securities. He met the guy who had caused trouble at the Hwayoung Hotel again here.

There are signs that the line is being crossed again today. There is no reason to avoid the coming fight.

Nam Yun-myeong spoke with a smile.

“We……met at the Hwayoung Hotel, right?”

“That’s right.”

“Oh! Did things go well that day? I heard you were in a hurry to apply for management at the Abu Dhabi Sovereign Wealth Fund.”

“This guy! He’s making fun of me!”

Kang Han-soo glared at him, grumbling.

“At that time, you spoke so confidently that I was scared.”

“If only you hadn’t bribed Ashur…….”

“A bribe?”

Nam Yun-myeong asked with a sly smile.

“How much would it cost to bribe Ashur, the richest man in the world? He wouldn’t even bother with a penny or two.”

The guy who was trembling with an expression like he had been hit once suddenly shouted.

“Anyway, you and Sebin conspired to steal it, right? If we had fought fairly, our MZ Securities would not have fallen!”

“Ha! Really? Then try the next one. If you have the skills.”

“I’ve already proven it! The MZ Global Top Fund launched by our MZ Securities is much more popular than the Baiglobal Fund! This is what skill is all about!”

Kang Han-soo seemed to equate Mega Asset Management with Korea Asset Management. After all, it is clearly stated that the two asset management companies are the management entities of the Byglobal Fund.

“Do you really think the rate of return will be higher?”

“Of course. You guys can’t even keep up with me.”

“Okay, let’s compete publicly.”

Nam Yunming readily accepted the challenge from his opponent. In fact, he had intentionally induced the challenge from the guy.

“Okay! Let’s make a public bet! The period is six months. Let’s compare the returns six months from today. What do you think?”

“I don’t care either way.”

“Let’s stake our company’s reputation on the public! MZ Securities and… Korea Investment & Securities! What do you think?”

Kang Han-soo looked back at Yoon Se-bin with a bitter smile.

Nam Woon-myeong realized what Kang Han-soo was after.

Indeed, the public confrontation between an unknown mega asset management company and a giant securities firm, MZ Securities, is not on the same level.

I crossed the line again today. When you cross the line, you have to pay the price.

“I don’t care. I trust Director Nam Woon-myeong.”

Yoon Se-bin also declared clearly.

“Okay! Don’t cry if you lose! Since we’re going to announce it publicly and have a showdown, if we lose, the company’s image will suffer considerably.”

That was what Kang Han-soo was after. Korea Investment & Securities Group and MZ Financial Group have been enemies for a long time, and when Korea Asset Management’s stock price rose due to the attraction of the Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth fund, he started a fight.

“Is the MZ Global Top Fund also a global investment?”

“Of course. That way, we can compare them. MZ Global Top Fund is a mutual fund, but it is a fund with a high degree of freedom and no special regulations. You can invest in anything.”

“Great. I’m looking forward to six months from now.”

It seemed like a great rival as it was a fund similar to the Biglobal Fund.

Kang Han-soo declared a showdown to everyone.

Applause erupted everywhere.

Those invited here know who Kang Han-soo is. He is the CEO of MZ Securities and is also known as a veteran investment genius with great knowledge of economic trends. It is rare to see someone lead such a large securities company at such a young age.

People who met Kang Han-soo in the meantime listened intently to get at least one piece of investment information. Kang Han-soo, who was used to that kind of atmosphere, had a stiff neck today as well. People gathered around Kang Han-soo.

On the other hand, there was no one here who knew Nam Yun-myeong.

However, upon discovering Hyun Ah-sol and Yoon Se-bin surrounding Nam Woon-myung, he could only guess that he was an extraordinary person.

The people gathered around Kang Han-soo asked about Nam Woon-myeong’s identity.

“Who are you?”

Choi Da-eun answered on his behalf.

“I am Nam Woon-myeong, director of Mega Asset Management.”

“Oh, I see.”

People’s reaction was lukewarm.

He is not even the CEO of a private equity fund management company, but a director. In a private equity fund where rank inflating is severe, even if he is a director, his rank is different from that of a director of a large company.

All of the people gathered here are children of owners of large corporations. To them, being a director of a private equity fund is no different from being a representative of an affiliate.

That kind of person would fight the president of a securities firm! The result was obvious without even having to wait six months.

The attention of those who blatantly ignored him quickly turned to Kang Han-soo.

Kang Han-soo smirked at Nam Woon-myung.

“Did you see it?”

Nam Woon-myung, who didn’t care about what other people thought anyway, picked up his wine glass without paying any attention.

On the other hand, HyunA Sol got angry and tried to get up when she felt like her partner was being ignored.

Nam Yun-myeong grabbed her wrist and shook his head slightly.

I could hear a commotion around me.

“Haha! Of course MZ Securities will win that bet!”

“Didn’t Korea Investment & Securities have a commotion a while ago?”

“Sebin’s ability is excellent, but she’s still not as good as Han Soo.”

Yoon Se-bin also frowned slightly.

Nam Woon-myung clearly realized why the Byglobal Fund had to succeed. Comparing Yoon Se-bin and Kang Han-soo, it seemed that public reputation was important.

There were also some blatant complaints.

“Why is that kid here?”

“You’re not the type of person to hang out with us, are you?”

“Assol and Sebin are the ones who rub their hands together diligently. Isn’t that the only way to keep your position as director?”

HyunA Sol, who couldn’t stand it any longer, expressed her concerns.

“Are you okay? I brought you here for no reason…….”

“The dog is barking.”

When Nam Woon-myung raised his wine glass, Hyun Ah-sol, Choi Da-eun, and Yoon Se-bin responded. Thanks to that, these three women came together today.

Kang Han-soo, who was upset at the sight of receiving support from beauties, changed the subject.

“Shall I tell you some good companies to invest in?”

“As expected from Hansoo! I have a lot of money to spare these days!”

“Okay, let me know too. Last time, you took a picture of me like a pair of tongs, right?”

Kang Han-soo felt better without realizing it as he heard the voice encouraging him from the side.

‘Yes, I am the king here.’

Kang Han-soo raised his voice as if he was angry.

“Okay! Today, Woochan will reveal a secret investment tip as a congratulatory gift for his engagement.”

“What is it?”

“Petanos! Have you heard of it?”

Of course, no one knew.

Kang Han-soo connected to the Petanos homepage from his mobile phone.

“It’s a new medical company in Silicon Valley. This woman is the CEO, Ellie Short. She’s a genius who graduated from Stanford University’s chemistry department.”

People who saw the cell phone screen erupted in cheers.

“Wow! It’s pretty!”

“She’s not just pretty. She’s got it all. She’s the world’s richest self-made businesswoman according to Forbes! Petanos is currently valued at $9 billion, and she owns 50% of the shares.”

Kang Han-soo introduced Petanos diligently.

Petanos claimed to have developed a technology that could diagnose as many as 250 diseases with a single drop of blood. The medical diagnostic kit she developed by using all of her knowledge of chemistry was, if Petanos’s announcement was true, a great invention that would bring about a new revolution in the medical field.

“It’s a huge company?”

“Of course! It will be listed on NASDAQ soon! It is a company that will skyrocket at least 10 times!”

The craze has swept over us!
