◈ Episode 275 Underwater Strategy (1)

Unlike other people, Nam Woon-myung’s birthday has a complex meaning.

If he knows the other person’s birthday and name, he can see into their fate. Of course, he has to intend to do so, but it is not as easy as it sounds to suppress the desire to see their fate when he knows those two things.

So he intentionally did not try to find out Yoon Se-bin’s date of birth.

Up until now, it had come naturally. But… … .

“hmm.”

Nam Woon-myung’s face hardened.

Yoon Se-bin asked with a sigh.

“You still don’t know?”

It seemed like he took it to mean that he wasn’t interested in the other person.

“Then do you know when Jeong Seon-yeong’s birthday is? Have you ever celebrated her birthday?”

I know Jeong Seon-yeong’s birthday because she’s my colleague. It’s marked on the desk calendar on her desk. Also, her colleagues gave her a small cake in the office.

“I didn’t bring it, but…….”

There’s no way Yoon Se-bin wouldn’t know about the birthday parties that occasionally take place in the office.

“Okay. Since we’re coworkers. Then what about you, Yuna?”

“Seon Yoon-ah, have you ever taken care of……”

Nam Yun-myeong was about to say that he didn’t have any, but he closed his mouth.

I didn’t celebrate her birthday separately, but I remember sending her a text message to wish her a happy birthday. Of course, I never did that to Yoon Se-bin.

“It exists, right?”

“yes.”

“I knew it. You just left me out?”

I feel like I’ve seriously misunderstood something, but I can’t make excuses. I can’t tell you that I can see your destiny if I know your date of birth.

“Okay. So our relationship is more of a business-like one. Get along well with Yuna.”

Before he could make an excuse, Yoon Se-bin put down her wine glass and went to her area.

Celebrating success with wine has become rather strange.

Nam Woon-myung also sat down on the bed with a sigh.

“But do you know when my birthday is? Why do you have to be the only one to remember it?”

Looking back, I don’t think Yoon Se-bin ever celebrated his birthday.

I’ll figure out an excuse later when I think of it. It’s not urgent right now anyway.

After sending Yoon Se-bin on a plane to Korea, Nam Woon-myung moved to LA.

Her mood was lifted significantly by the fact that he had dropped her off at the airport.

The Anaheim stadium I visited again was similar to the old one, but different. I don’t remember exactly what it looked like back then, but it was somehow full of energy.

It’s only natural since this year’s results are better than last year’s.

Now, there are more positive evaluations that the team has changed owners well, and the number of fans who support the team has also increased.

Well, it looks like you’ve made a good first step.

“Welcome. I was planning on inviting you to watch the game together.”

Choi Yong-muk welcomed him.

Nam Woon-myung also experienced the atmosphere of a major league team for the first time.

“How long are you going to Korea?”

“Korea? About half? Luckily, Da-eun is handling things well…….”

He is also involved in group affairs in the US, but probably spends half of his time in the US on professional baseball. I am worried about the Hwayoung Group.

“Is the role of club owner fun?”

“of course.”

“Will Hwayoung Dragons cry?”

“I’m already thinking about how to link up with the Angels and the Hwayoung Dragons. I’ll have to start pushing for it in earnest once the season ends.”

Expectations are high for Chairman Choi Yong-mook, as this is an opportunity for Korean professional baseball to learn from the major leagues.

“While I’m here, I’ll meet the players and watch the match.”

Watching the game with the owner!

Nam Woon-myeong followed Choi Yong-muk and looked around at the players warming up before the match.

Some of them were players I often saw on the news, some I remembered from player profiles, and of course there were many players I didn’t remember.

When the club owner appeared, the manager and coaches welcomed him.

The players just pretended to know each other. In Korea, when the club owner came, the players would line up to greet him. But here, things are much more free.

Director Rod Carlton.

As Nam Woon-myung had expected, he is a very lucky director. According to his face, today’s fortune was also good.

Manager Rod Carlton, although a new manager, was making a name for himself with his excellent mercenary skills. When he brought in pinch hitters or relief pitchers at crucial moments, his intentions were met.

That little bit led this year’s performance to be superior to last year’s.

Nam Woon-myung reviewed the team, focusing on the players he had picked before the season. Of course, the players had no idea who he was.

“Who is that player?”

Nam Woon-myung pointed to a player who was lightly stretching.

Choi Yong-muk explained the player without hesitation.

“He’s a third baseman, but he’s got a nimble body. He’s good at defense and has a good bat. He’s also popular with the fans.”

Although he was not a superstar, he was a player who consistently demonstrated his skills and was a key player in the team.

“Are you a starter today?”

“Of course, right?”

Nam Woon-myeong saw the player’s fate in his face. He was probably destined to suffer an injury by twisting his leg while running the bases.

“You’ve been playing in consecutive games recently, right?”

“As the season draws to a close, it’s become difficult to take out starters. So, lately, it’s been a forced march.”

“How about giving yourself a break today?”

If you rest today, you can play in all the remaining games, but if you play today and get injured, you will have to miss all the remaining games.

“hmm.”

Choi Yong-muk also realized what Nam Un-myeong’s advice meant.

Choi Yong-muk cautiously called the director.

Even if you are a club owner, you cannot interfere with each player’s employment, so you ask for their opinion.

Fortunately, Lord Carlton did not raise any objections.

“Only today?”

“Yes, I don’t know what the player’s condition is like today… but he doesn’t look very good. Don’t force him to play.”

It would be burdensome to suddenly change the starting lineup just before a match, but Lord Carlton readily accepted.

Then, after a heated argument with the third baseman, Rod Carlton returned.

“It’s unfortunate, but he said he’ll rest today. In fact, I was worried because he’s been overdoing it recently. I was thinking of letting him rest for a day to help him conserve his stamina.”

Fortunately, things worked out well.

Next, Yongmuk Choi mentioned Spotechnics.

Tet Collins of Spotechnics seized the opportunity that came his way. He introduced a product for the baseball team to use, and Choi Yong-mook eagerly accepted.

They said that they are currently using various wearable devices to help players and coaches. The effects are not yet noticeable, but so far, users have been giving it favorable reviews.

He said that sometimes, there are requests for improvements or problems with the usage.

The day when Spotechnics will supply to other clubs is not far off.

Nam Woon-myung sat in the VIP seats with Choi Yong-muk and watched the game.

The game was very exciting to watch with burgers and beer.

In fact, Nam Woon-myung doesn’t know many players. He doesn’t cheer for any players either. However, perhaps because of his preconceptions about the major leagues, the game was interesting.

Yong-Muk Choi occasionally introduced the players’ characteristics and told stories about the club’s operations.

As expected, Yongmuk Choi was serious about baseball.

People who have achieved their dreams are cool. Thanks to them, Choi Da-eun’s future has brightened up and the future of Hwayoung Group is also bright.

Perhaps in a few years, a young manager named Choi Da-eun will make a brilliant appearance in the domestic economic world.

Hyun-Seop Hyun met Everly at a hotel bar in Gangnam.

The time spent drinking with a young woman against the backdrop of the beautifully sparkling night view brought him a sense of joy and excitement.

Everly is the granddaughter and vice president of the chairman of KR Investment Group, a world-famous private equity fund. She is a big shot with assets worth hundreds of trillions of won.

“It’s been a while.”

Actually, today is the second time.

Hyun-Seop became a gentleman unlike usual and treated Everly. He chose Gangnam as the stage to match her age.

“I like the atmosphere of Seoul.”

Anyway, since Everly looked satisfied, the start was successful.

“Do you come to Korea often?”

“No, I come here rarely because there aren’t many investments in Korea.”

“Please invest a lot in Korea too…….”

“The North Star needs to help.”

While chatting about this and that with the smiling Everly, Hyunjae Seop brought up his purpose.

“We have prepared a plan to reclaim the North Star.”

“The chairman and I are friends, so of course I should help you. So how does the plan work?”

“First of all, how much do you know about the Bukseong Group’s management structure……”

“I know enough. If you want to invest, you need to study that much.”

“There are currently three companies that form the axis of the Bukseong Group: Bukseong Chemical Energy, Bukseong Bio, and Bukseong Life.”

The major shareholder of Bukseong Chemical Energy is Bukseong Construction, the major shareholder of Bukseong Bio is Bukseong Pharmaceutical, and the major shareholder of Bukseong Life is Bukseong Cultural Foundation. Bukseong Life holds stocks of various affiliates, including several financial institutions, as assets.

“I was worried about whether to carry out the operation at Bukseong Distribution or Bukseong Pharmaceutical or Bukseong Life…… but I decided that Bukseong Life would be the best fit for the big game.”

“I guess you’re trying to get the whole group back.”

“Of course. It was mine originally.”

Although Bukseong Life Insurance transferred some of its major affiliates’ stocks to Mega Asset Management, it still holds a lot of affiliates’ stocks. Therefore, it was judged that it would be difficult to recover the group without Bukseong Life Insurance.

“Is the Bukseong Cultural Foundation what you’re looking for? It’s different from regular companies….”

“The Bukseong Cultural Foundation has no choice but to directly target Bukseong Life.”

This means that the Bukseong Cultural Foundation needs to purchase more shares of Bukseong Life Insurance than it owns.

“It would be better to try to persuade Mrs. Joo Do-hee…….”

“That’s already over.”

Evely nodded as if she understood.

The influence that Bukseong Life Insurance has on the entire group of affiliates is very large.

“What are you planning to do?”

“We have to use the right strategy. The North Star can’t do anything behind the scenes, right?”

Although it was just a superficial confidence, Hyun-Seop did not want to feel discouraged in front of the young woman.

“I see. How can we help you?”

“You need to provide funds. Funds to purchase Bukseong Life Insurance stocks.”

“It’s not difficult. But what about the benefits that will come to us?”

“I will give you some of the stocks of Bukseong Chemical Energy.”

This was the method that Hyunjae Seop came up with after much thought.

The stocks of Bukseong Chemical Energy are held by Bukseong Construction and Hyeonjae Seop himself. Of course, as Bukseong Chemical Energy is doing well, Hyeonjae Eun and his children are also holding some of the stocks, but the amount is not large compared to that.

“Bukseong Chemical Energy… Not bad.”

“Instead, there should be ample financial support.”

“i know.”

Hyun-Seop Hyeon calculated that there would be no problem in transferring some of his shares in Bukseong Chemical Energy to KR Investment Group.

First of all, his control over Bukseong Construction is solid, and Bukseong Construction owns a lot of Bukseong Chemical Energy stocks. In addition, affiliates own a considerable amount of Bukseong Chemical Energy stocks.

In other words, even if his own Bukseong Chemical Energy stocks are excluded, there is no problem in controlling Bukseong Chemical Energy.

However, it is heartbreaking that the fruits of Bukseong Chemical Energy’s extremely rapid growth are being given up.

“You attach a call option to the stock so that it can be bought back when you hand it over. You know?”

“of course.”

He had not calculated how much money it would take to get back the stocks he had entrusted to the private equity fund, but Hyun-Seop tried to ignore it. He thought that once he got back the affiliates and the group stabilized, he could quickly get them back by putting forward affiliates with abundant cash flow.

The question is how much we can trust KR Investment Group.

When Hyunjae Seop realized that he had trusted Korea Asset Management and had been deceived by Yoon Se-bin, he became furious.

In reality, Korea Asset Management had never broken its promise, but in Hyun-Seop’s eyes, Yoon Se-Bin was only hostile to him.

So I checked again.

“Avery, why are you helping the North Star?”

“I told you then, there’s a lot to eat in Bukseong.”
