After everyone left, Woosung switched his computer open and transferred 50 million dollars each to the two accounts used for algorithm trading. He didn’t look too closely at Park Junwoo’s product, but based on the test results, Woosung thought he could trust it.
In the past, he would have checked every little component of it, but now, he didn’t have the time for it. He had to learn how to delegate tasks to his employees.
Woosung checked the Coconut service status again. Over 50000 users were registered. It was definitely a big success.
He couldn’t be satisfied yet though. Woosung went to see Hong Soobum and Jang Gwangchul.
“Do you remember what I said before?”
There were a lot of things Woosung said in the past. They looked at him in silence.
“I think we are ready to enter the Chinese market.”
“Already?”
Woosung nodded. Smartphone industry would explode soon and China was a big market he couldn’t lose.
“Yes, and I need to appoint someone to lead this project. We must start the investment process and create a messenger company in China.”
Jang Gwangchul’s eyes widened. “We are getting busier with the mobile carrier business, yet you want to add more work?”
Woosung looked at Hong Soobum for help. “What do you think, Vice president Hong?”
At the promoted title of vice president, both Jang Gwangchul and Hong Soobum looked at Woosung in surprise.
Woosung continued. “The business in the US is settling down nicely. Based on how well it did in America, we know Blue S will do well in Korea too. Besides, we are done with PC, Android, and iPhone versions of the app, so it’s time to begin a new project.”
Hong Soobum.
Woosung knew he was a talented developer and a savvy businessman. Woosung knew Hong Soobum was the best person for the job. Hong Soobum asked nervously.
“China…You want me to take care of the Chinese project?”
“As you must have already known, the Chinese population is huge. Everyone knows it is the sleeping dragon of Asia. Don’t you want to be a part of this life-changing project?”
Hong Soobum listened with thorough thoughts.
Woosung continued.”And of course, I won’t let you do it all by yourself. I will be there with you the whole way. I just need you to be the main point of contact.”
Woosung was very convincing. Jang Gwangchul began to be jealous. “President Kang, are you keeping me out of such an important project?”
“Haha, it’s not like that.”
“Haha, then when are we going to China?”
“After we are done with the preparations. We will create a company, localize the messenger, and hire appropriate people. I need someone to take care of these things.”
When Woosung turned to Hong Soobum, he nodded.
---------------------------------------------------------------
After the conversation, Jang Gwangchul took Woosung to a private room.
“I got a call from Yoo Sona’s management company. Her CEO would like to meet with us.”
Yoo Sona.
She was a member of a new idol group ThirtyNine. This set Woosung’s interest in hiring her as the next celebrity for the one-on-one talk event with the fans. Woosung asked.
“What do you think?”
“I’ve heard some rumors about her. I don’t think it’s a good idea.”
“What kind of rumors?”
Jang Gwangchul whispered, “I heard she does sexual favors for her career advancement.”
Suddenly, the name Daeyang entered Woosung’s mind. She was part of a TV commercial for Daeyang System after all.
Jang Gwangchul continued, “I don’t think it’s a good idea…but if you insist…”
Jang Gwangchul clearly didn’t like the idea, but Woosung felt differently. He had a distinct feeling that he had to meet her.
“I think we should have a dinner with them at least.” Jang Gwangchul looked at him disappointedly, but Woosung continued quickly. “Don’t worry. I will be smart about it.”
---------------------------------------------------------------
Woosung arranged a meeting with Yoo Sona and her manager. Her CEO wasn’t joining them, which worried Jang Gwangchul.
The manager stayed behind and Woosung met with Yoo Sona in private. Cosmetics envelopes her face and she donned an alluring outfit.
“I’ll do anything you want me to do.” She said it forcefully.
It was clear that she didn’t want to be here, but her eyes were determined. She wanted to be successful and if this was the way to do it, she was ready for it.
Woosung said calmly, “Shall we have dinner first?”
Yoo Sona asked, “Is this going to take a long time?”
Woosung started to cut into his steak and replied, “You are in a hurry?”
“So you’re saying you want to take your time with me?”
Yoo Sona picked up her utensils as well and started to enjoy her steak.
Woosung asked, “Aren’t you afraid?”
“The only thing I’m afraid of is being broke in the dirt.”
Her hands were shaking. Contrary to her confident voice, she was clearly nervous. Woosung pretended not to see it and asked, “I like it rough.”
“I am used to it.”
Woosung thought of Choi Taemin and asked, “Daeyang?”
Cough.
Yoo Sona coughed in surprise. Woosung handed her a napkin and continued asking, “Don’t you want revenge?”
“Pardon?”
“Haha, why don’t you have a drink first?”
Instead of the cup Woosung handed, Yoo Sona picked the glass of wine and gulped it down.
“You like making fun of girls, is that it? Then I will play your game.”
She was only 20, but the way her actions told Woosung she went through a lot in her life. She was filled with fury and determination.
Woosung said to her, “My hobby is to make money. I plan on being the richest person in Korea.”
Yoo Sona murmured cynically, “Me too.”
“Great. We have something in common.”
Yoo Sona licked her lips and asked, “I think we had enough talk. Let’s just get it over with.”
“I’m afraid I can’t.”
“Pardon?”
“As you must have already noticed, anything that happens here needs to be confidential.”
Yoo Sona looked at him nervously. What was he going to do to her?
What kind of weirdo was he?
As Yoo Sona paled, Woosung smiled. “Have a seat.”
She was frightened. This situation was unfamiliar to her. Yoo Sona knew someone who smiled like Woosung was someone to fear.
She tried to look calm, but her hands were trembling uncontrollably.
Woosung continued quickly, “I need you to tell me what happened at Daeyang.”
Yoo Sona’s eyes widened, but she nodded. As she told her story, Woosung realized that it was worse than he expected.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Yoo Sona entered the car. The manager, who was taking a nap, woke up.
“Oh…you’re back.”
He checked the clock. It wasn’t even two in the morning. It was different than her other clients before, but he didn’t say anything about it.
He checked her through the back mirror and noticed Yoo Sona’s appearance was exactly the same as when she left the car earlier. Her makeup was intact and her hair was dry. The only difference was that her mascara was smudged.
She must have cried.
He asked her quietly, “A…are you ok?”
Yoo Sona answered abruptly, “Yes.” She closed her eyes.
“Alright. Then we’ll head home.”
They drove away and Woosung looked at the car through the window of his room.
Yoo Sona.
The ordeal she went through was painful.
“Dammit.”
It was an unpleasant experience to see a woman cry, but Woosung managed to get the information he wanted.
He wanted some dirt about Choi Taemin. As Woosung expected, he was a cruel bastard.
Woosung remote accessed his home computer and started to record what he learned today.
