World Domination through Planet Development - Chapter 9
Only Noblemtl
Episode 9. Incorporation
My name is Byun Ki-Hwi.
There was a time when I lived arrogantly.
After graduating from Seoul Law School and passing the bar exam, he graduated from the training institute with the highest honors and became a prosecutor.
I thought I had the world at my feet.
Isn’t that true to some extent?
Excluding the approximately 4,000 prosecutors and the president, who in this land of the Republic of Korea can stand above the prosecutors? On the surface, that is.
But society was not easy.
At a young age, all I knew how to do was study.
Why did God give me intelligence but not social skills?
I thought that I just needed to seize the opportunity to show my abilities and as long as the results were good, that was all that mattered.
The desire to outwit others and rise higher.
I lived with that kind of thinking.
But society was not a competitive system based on ability.
It was definitely like that when I was preparing for the exam, but the atmosphere changed in an instant.
After receiving the local transfer order, I couldn’t help but notice it.
For a prosecutor who moves his work place regularly, being transferred to a local office is not unusual, but it was only when I completely lost contact with my colleagues that I, who was practically oblivious, realized it.
I realized that I had become an outcast in this group.
I have a headache.
Then I decided to show that I could succeed in a society that values ability.
That’s how I got into the law business.
Well, as you can see, the results are… .
Two employees in a small office.
Knock knock.
The person in front is chewing gum vigorously.
And I am a lawyer.
Tirolorong, tirolorong.
I slowly opened my closed eyes to the sound of the phone ringing.
Our precious employee was chewing gum while touching up her makeup.
Just as I was about to tell her to pick up the phone, she reached out like a ghost and picked up the phone.
“Yes, this is Lawyer Byungki’s office.”
ha….
When I see that guy answering the phone, I can’t help but sigh.
“Oh, yes~ Inquiry about incorporation?”
When she asked back and glanced this way, Byun Ki-Hwi quickly nodded his head.
For your information, my office currently has a title that says divorce specialist.
“Oh, of course~ I’ll connect you with a lawyer~”
After receiving the signal, Byungkihoe cleared his throat and picked up the phone on his table.
It wasn’t easy to even have a separate room in this one-room office.
But these superficial details are secretly important.
“Yes, I am Attorney Byun Ki-Hwi.”
-What…what?
“I am Attorney Byun Ki-hoi.”
-Oh, I’m sorry, Attorney Byun Ki-Hwi.
“No, it’s okay. Many people are confused at first. But you contacted me because of the incorporation?”
-Yes. Can someone give me a recommendation?
suggestion?
For a moment, the thought ‘Who is me…?’ occurs.
Is this an office worthy of a recommendation?
Several people crossed my mind, but no one in particular came to mind.
“Oh, I see. But these days, things are so streamlined. If you apply online, it’s quick and easy.”
-I want to do that too, but I think there will be a lot of legal issues if I run a company. Someone said that it would be good to have a fixed partner.
I wonder where you heard that you are a legal advisor to small and medium-sized businesses.
These days, it is not just a matter of simple sales tactics, but such issues have certainly become quite important to business.
It was like that before, but it’s even more so these days.
“If that’s the reason, then you’ve really thought it through well. These days, there are more than a few things that would get you in trouble if you did business like you used to. Isn’t this the era of ESG compliance management?”
-… What is ES?
“It’s ES G. It basically means that companies need to foster a sense of responsibility to coexist with society.”
-Ah, responsibility… .
“I will organize the important things and send them to you later. How about the capital?”
When Byungkihoe thought this was the right time, he proceeded with the work naturally.
-Capital? Why?
“The process can get a little complicated for amounts over 1 billion won. Of course, it’s not common to find people with capital of over 1 billion won.”
– Really? Is it very complicated?
“No! Don’t worry. I’ll take care of it. It might cost you a little more, though.”
-I have about 2 billion won in capital.
2 billion?
This is a rare case these days.
“2 billion? That’s amazing~”
-2 billion is a lot, right?
“Oh, of course. Now, you can make a contribution with just 100 won, but 2 billion won is more than enough. Isn’t this an era where everyone does business with other people’s money? You should consider anything over 1 billion won in cash as a lot of money.”
-No, someone kept talking like it was nothing. I thought it was a small amount of money for a moment.
“Haha. How could that be? I’ve never held 2 billion won in my life. I don’t think I ever will.”
– Really? Then I guess I should work harder and earn more money for you, lawyer.
“Haha. Thank you for just listening to me. Then, your capital is 2 billion… Do you have any other partners?”
The toilet almost went along with the customer’s nonsense for a moment, but he narrowly escaped.
-Yes… No, I don’t have any partners.
“Oh, are you alone?”
-yes.
“Hmm… Is there no one who can do business with me?”
-Yes, that’s not possible?
“No, it’s possible. I can handle it, but as I said, it’ll cost a little more… .”
-it’s okay.
“Yes, then I will send you an email about that part later. Lastly, have you decided on a mission?”
-The mission is… PDC stands for Planet Development Company.
Let’s put aside for a moment the thought, “What kind of name is that?”
“We need to write the mission accurately in Korean. Are you sure you can keep the English name without changing it to Korean?”
-It would be good if we did that since we are a global company.
Shudder.
This time I hesitated at the word global.
Nowadays, even dogs and cows call themselves global companies.
I thought the naming was very unique. Is this the current business trend?
Don’t worry about it.
Do the work and get paid. Isn’t that enough?
“Oh… Rush. Then I’ll do that and send you some of the necessary information and an online form. I’ll send you my personal number, so could you please leave your email address?”
-Okay, I’ll send it right away. Are you done now?
“Yes, I think you just need to write the rest down.”
-Then, I will take good care of it.
“I am the one who needs to be treated well.”

After ending the call, Jungwoo began to have doubts.
“But why are you telling me to get it from this guy?”
It wasn’t a large or famous law firm, and the people didn’t seem special.
Is it because my taste is not that good?
[His home is simple, but there is one decoration that stands out: his Judicial Research and Training Institute graduation certificate. It is placed in the best display case in his home, in a bright, visible space.]
“So what?”
[It is not because he particularly likes his diploma that he starts his day by wiping the dust off the frame of his diploma. It is because it is the only thing that can satisfy his sense of honor and self-esteem.]
Use it.
Jungwoo tilts his head.
“You interpret it that way? Well, I guess that could be the case.”
[Also, his phone records show no contact with any of his fellow trainees. He is the only one among the other trainees in the same class who has no contact with anyone.]
“Why is that? Ahem! You might not have any friends.”
It’s not like I’m particularly offended.
[A person who is ostracized by the society he belongs to, but has no fame, status, or financial success. He is closer to a person who desires success more than anyone else, even though he does not show it on the outside. If we give him success, he cannot help but follow us.]
“Really? But what if it’s not? What if you find out that you have no property?”
[Or else there is no choice.]
Hmm? That’s an unexpected answer.
“Oh… Are you going to accept it now?”
[Actually, his abilities aren’t all that useful to us. What we need exactly are his connections.]
Sarah said, lightly ignoring Jungwoo’s joke.
“Connections? No, bullying. What kind of connections do you have?”
[If he succeeds, not only will he build up connections that were lost, but he will also build up connections that were not there before. All we have to do is give him success and receive connections in return.]
Hmm… .
Jeongwoo nodded.
“That’s true. I know that because I’ve experienced it firsthand.”
In Korean society, law is a pretext.
In any fight, if you don’t have a good cause, you’re bound to lose the first move.
Of course, we can suppress it with overwhelming force, but it is still premature.
Okay, now I’ve done as I was told, found an office, and established a corporation.
“Is there anything else I can do?”
[There is nothing special. When the server equipment is set up in the office later, you just need to install the LAN card and USB that I will send you.]
“LAN card?”
[This is a LAN card with a converter that converts dimensional communication signals into electrical signals. It is designed to control servers at will without using physical control capabilities such as gravitational field interference. The USB contains a control software installation file that matches the OS installed on the server.]
It’s complicated.
“I don’t really understand it through words, so let me know when you install it later.”
[All right.]
Okay, now I guess we need to find some staff.
Wouldn’t it seem a bit shabby to run a company that will create world-class AI as a one-man company?
Growth will happen in an instant.
“It seems like this is just going to cost money… But I guess there’s nothing I can do about it. Everything will work out anyway. Right? Are you sure?”
[…yes.]
