Investor That Can See The Future

Chapter 280

It was a relationship that we met like this, so as a courtesy, we decided to join a $100,000 fund. It’s not a huge amount, but he was thrilled that he sold the fund to me.

After having coffee at a nearby cafe, we headed to JP Morgan’s headquarters together. I’ve taken pictures in front of the building before, but this is the first time I’ve been inside.

“We will guide you upwards.”

“No. I will wait here.”

“Yes. Then I’ll come right down with the paperwork.”

I asked him to keep the fact that I was here a secret.

Taek-gyu looked around and said.

“This is JP Morgan’s headquarters.”

The correct name is JPMorgan Chase Bank.

It is a large financial group with investment banks (IBs) and commercial banks (CBs). Its position in the global financial industry is right after Golden Gate, and it has a branch in Korea.

Taegyu said.

“I’m not feeling well, so I’ll go to the bathroom.”

“Huh.”

I sat in the lobby and watched the people passing by.

They all seemed like elites because they were working in the center of global finance. A strong sense of pride was evident on his face.

How much money do you move per day here? And how many people will cry and laugh because of it?

Unlike domestic securities companies that are like frogs in a well, the power of global IB is beyond imagination. It is not a matter of making an individual stock soar or plummet with a single report.

That’s possible for me too. That’s why my power in the financial market has grown.

As the saying goes, the Butterfly Effect, a small action can lead to big results. Even more so if you are an influential person. If it wasn’t for me, Barnes Willis wouldn’t be alive right now.

Looking at it that way, I may have changed the history of this world significantly without my knowledge. And will it continue to change in the future?

Alone, I was drenched in emotions, but I felt a sense of popularity from the other side.

Looking up, she saw a woman standing in front of her.

He didn’t look like he was a teenager, and he looks a little younger than me. About twenty or two years old?

She had blonde hair that fell down to her waist, a small, pure white face, a tall nose and red lips, and large, clear eyes. She wore a yellow dress, and her limbs, which showed that she doesn’t usually see sunlight, are so clean and pure white.

It was not suitable for this place. That would be the same for me too.

she said looking at me

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Kang Jin-hoo.”

Even if you’re wearing a hat, you can recognize it at a glance.

I said hello.

“Good morning.”

I’m used to talking to someone for the first time pretending to be friendly.

she smiled and said

“It’s strange. I’ve heard that she’s in Manhattan, but seeing her here. Is it just a coincidence?”

I asked her.

“Is it not a coincidence?”

She naturally sat across from me.

“Nothing in the world just happens. There is always a reason for everything.”

Sophistication and dignity were felt in the British accent and gestures. Bodyguards in black suits were standing within reach if they reached out their hands.

Are you a rich, well-bred girl?

No, it was too oppressive to say that. Do you feel like royalty?

Even more surprising is the appearance. It was like looking at an elaborately crafted wax figure. She boasted an unrealistic and perfect beauty that much.

Appearance is an important factor in being liked.

“I thought we would meet someday, but I didn’t know it would be today. I’ve heard rumors about you for a long time.”

“What rumors?”

“The L6 explosion, Brexit, the US presidential election, and even the Big One. I thought I would fail once, but I succeeded in everything. And this time, they found a spy chip and caused the US-China trade war. I always wanted to ask you when we met, how the hell was that possible?”

I answered calmly.

“Let’s just say I was lucky.”

“If that’s luck, then the goddess of fortune is with you.”

“I hope.”

She smiled faintly.

“I like lucky people. Luck is something you can’t buy no matter how much money you give. Perhaps the value of a person like you is not in the money you have, but in your luck. Or there is something else that goes beyond that luck.”

With that said, I looked straight at my opponent. She did not avoid the gaze.

She was joking, but her words were getting to the point.

I came here not because of money, but because of my foresight. If it wasn’t for that, I would have just lived a very normal life.

You may have graduated from college by now and got a job in the financial sector, or you may have remained as a job-preparing student. However, the foreknowledge that emerged that day changed a lot.

Taek-gyu kept the Vantcoin, and we became world-class rich. And Ronald became president, and America was prepared for a major earthquake.

“You have changed a lot. But the biggest change is you. Who would have imagined that a young Korean who had no possessions would rise to this position?”

Emerald green eyes gleamed. Those eyes seemed to look down on me, and naturally forced me to tell the truth.

What kind of life would you lead to have this kind of atmosphere?

Well, I don’t know. No matter who my opponent is, there’s no reason for me to be shy. There is nothing to be sad about.

“What do you want to say?”

“I just want to know about you. Who you are, what you like, and what you will do in the future.”

“… … .”

Does this mean you have a crush on me?

She thinks she should decline that she has a lover, but she stands up.

“I will see you again soon. Until then, good luck.”

“awhile.”

As I jumped up and stepped forward, the bodyguards behind me moved immediately. At that moment she raised her hand, and they stopped moving.

“If you’ve talked like this, isn’t it polite to introduce yourself?”

She smiled curiously at my question.

“By the way, you didn’t tell me my name. I am Grace Rothschild.”

The answer was that.

She went out the front door and got into the Rolls-Royce Phantom waiting in front of her. I stood there and watched the car door close and the car start.

“‘What the hell is this?’ Jinhoo Kang thought.”

I was startled by the sudden narration.

“madam! It’s a surprise. When did you come?”

“just now.”

Taek-gyu, who was approaching me suddenly, asked.

“Who is that woman?”

This time it was this guy’s turn to surprise. When I told him his name, Taek-gyu opened his mouth wide.

“Ugh! Rothschild! That’s a famous chaebol family.”

“Do you know?”

“Of course. Does anyone know that?”

Surprisingly, he is an otaku who is keen on history.

“It often appears as a black screen in manga and anime, so why don’t you know? Wouldn’t it be a Rothschild for a conspiracy theory?”

… … Was that the reason?

The Rothschilds are a family of Jewish financial conglomerates.

It has been passed down for 250 years, and as a family that once dominated the financial world in Europe, it is also a name that will always come up when you study history and economy.

It is known that he still possesses enormous wealth even in the present, which has greatly reduced his influence unlike in the past.

Other chaebols that hold shares in listed companies disclose their assets transparently, but the Rothschilds are so secretive that it is not known exactly how much they have.

“There’s even a saying that it’s the 5th view.”

“That’s bullshit.”

After a story is told once in a book, it is transmitted as if it were a fact.

After 1000 trillion, the first is the first sutra. Even 1 million won is more than the sum of all the assets of the 100 richest people in the world. And if it’s 5,000 won, it’s bigger than Korea’s KOSPI and KOSDAQ combined.

It is impossible to have such an undisclosed asset. Even if you have hundreds of billions of dollars.

Of course, that alone is shocking.

Is there anything comparable to the Rothschilds in the royal family of Saud or the royal family of Abu Dhabi?

“But why did she come here?”

“I must have come to work.”

It is said that J.P. Morgan founder John Pierpont Morgan was funded by the Rothschild family. For some reason, Rothschild and JP Morgan still have a deep relationship.

After all, is that woman a member of the Rothschild family?

With that in mind, Taek-gyu tapped my shoulder and said.

“Come to Ellie.”

I was taken aback by that.

“Huh? What did I do?”

Taek-gyu wiggled his fingers.

“Remember, my friend. Pretty girls are dangerous.”

“… … .”

So she only sees 2D girls?

What does it mean to see you again anyway?

After the three-day US-China summit, the two leaders announced the results.

First, both sides decided to stop the escalation. The U.S. withheld tariffs on the remaining $250 billion of Chinese exports, and China also withheld additional tariffs it was intended to impose on U.S. agricultural and livestock products. In addition, soybeans and corn will immediately resume imports.

This is partly what I expected. But the core is high-tech industry and intellectual property rights.

So far, China has limited foreign ownership of all industries to 50 percent. However, in high-tech industries such as IT and telecommunications, the number can be increased to 70 percent.

In addition, it has decided to abolish the regulation on the share of electric vehicles altogether.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

For Karos, the road was opened to enter China without setting up a joint venture.

They also agreed to phase out tariffs on automobiles and high-tech products and reduce the US trade deficit with China by increasing imports of US energy and agricultural and livestock products.

The two leaders announced the agreement in front of the media.

Ronald said with his characteristic exaggerated gesture.

“President Zhang is a very nice person, and China is America’s most important trading partner. Our conversation was very enjoyable.”

Zhang Pinghua also said.

“China will continue its reform and opening-up policy and further open the market door. Openness and cooperation are important drivers of international economic and trade. China’s steps toward the human community will not stop.”

I received a call from Hyunjoo noona.

[For now, the trade war is a breath-taking atmosphere. I thought I’d hit it with a big river, but it’s an unexpected result.]

In fact, Zhang Pinghua has taken a hard line on the trade war all along.

He went so far as to say, “In the West, if you get hit on the left cheek, the right cheek will also be given away, but in China, if you get hit on the left cheek, you will be struck back immediately.”

Therefore, most experts were negative about the possibility of a settlement.

[I expected to refrain from escalation, but I thought it would take several months or more to solve the high-tech industry and intellectual property problems.]

Although detailed negotiations are still pending, the negotiations have been concluded. This was possible because the Chinese side made major concessions.

Regarding the various events that have occurred so far, the line was drawn as a problem for individual companies, but the companies acted on their own as the Chinese government had set a policy.

Weihua and TZE agreed to be investigated by the US government, take corrective action for violations, and compensate for violations.

In addition, it was decided to establish a compliance monitoring team composed of US personnel at the headquarters. They have the right to investigate when intellectual property infringement occurs. This included Zhou Cha, who admitted that Carlos took over technology.

The world was relieved when the news of the conclusion of the negotiations spread, and the stock market rose sharply.

[How did you know it was going to end?]

“I just thought it wouldn’t be long.”

Before that, I had a feeling that it would be the case, and after meeting President Zhang Pinghua, that thought became more firm.

I feel he wanted to close this matter as soon as possible.

Experts chose the US midterm elections as another variable.

However, after the Big One, it declined again, but Ronald’s approval rating was still close to 70 percent. There was little reason to escalate the trade dispute until then, given that Republican control of the House and Senate was certain during the midterm elections.

[Anyway, I made money again thanks to you.]

Golden Gate and K Company, which bet on the rise in advance, made quite savory profits.

As I hung up the phone and sighed, another phone rang.

It was none other than Zhang Pinghua.

He is leaving for Jakarta for a meeting with ASEAN leaders. It must be to persuade allies.

President Zhang Pinghua spoke to me through an interpreter.

[China’s economy is not a small pond, but a big sea. There are many days of strong winds and blizzards in the big sea. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be a big sea.]
