Investor That Can See The Future

Chapter 412

Hyeon-Joo Oh, President of Golden Gate Korea.

She was recently ranked #7 on Time magazine’s list of Influential Women. Considering that the 1st place is IMF President Julgens, the 2nd place is German Chancellor Meisner, and the 3rd place is the EU President, this is a very high ranking.

Although she was ranked 7th in the list of influential female figures, she proudly took first place in the list of richest women.

This is because OTK Company owns a 3% stake. The value of the stake she received as her younger brother almost passed it on to her, and it has already surpassed $30 billion.

Although she had enough money to spend her whole life playing and eating, she did not neglect her main job. Except for maternity leave, she never took a break from work, and she took care of work and meetings herself.

Golden Gate’s Korean branch was busy ahead of her opening. The same goes for other brokerages. Because today was going to be a big event.

The KOSPI index, which once stayed only at the 2000 level and used the stigma of the box price, rose steadily and crossed the 2700 level at the beginning of this year.

This was the steepest rise among emerging countries.

Controversy over the Korean stock market’s highs continued, and experts expected a major correction in the near future. Clearly, it was difficult to dominate the Korean stock market in a situation where the world economy stagnated.

In anticipation of this, some institutions sold their stocks and increased short selling. But at this point, the Saemangeum development plan suddenly exploded.

This was a huge boon for stocks and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that were excluded from the bull market. The uptrend ignited by the IT sector continued to strengthen as construction, machinery, travel, hotels, and materials were cycled through sales.

Yesterday’s closing price on the KOSPI was 2986 points.

Now, if it rises only 14 points, 0.47 percent, it will finally break through the 3000 line, which can be said to be the section of the devil.

Yesterday, the global stock market strengthened due to the strong announcement of the US economic indicators, so everyone expected the KOSPI to break through 3,000 today.

The stock market, which showed an upward trend in the same order before the opening, rose more than 1 percent to the opening price of 3019 points at 9 o’clock.

The Korea Stock Exchange exploded the prepared congratulatory cannon, and Korea Stock Exchange Chairman Lee Hyun-rak and Financial Services Commission Chairman Yoon Seong-mo appeared on the scene and rejoiced with the employees.

It is the first time in history that the stock price composite index has crossed the 3000 line.

It was truly historic.

News channels sent out breaking news all at once, and over-the-air channels showed subtitles during other broadcasts. Even during the morning drama broadcast, the phrase ‘The KOSPI 3000 era has begun!’ came to mind at the bottom.

There is no stock trader who is not happy with the bull market.

Internet stock bulletin boards were noisy.

– Wow! The real story that the main character just hit the KOSPI 3000 while he was fighting with kimchi?

-Haha, did you do something all of a sudden?

-I’m sure I’ll see the KOSPI 3,000 in my lifetime!

– Stock traders must be excited today~

– Go to Jisoo for a hundred days. If my stock doesn’t go, it’s useless. Jerome Technique Gazzah~

– It’ll be out of business soon. get out quickly

-Oh, damn it ㅜㅜ I got rid of everything a few days ago after hearing the analyst say that it would be adjusted ㅜㅜ

-Each past president promised to go to the KOSPI by 3,000, but Kang Jin-hoo kept that promise.

– Brothers who share stock, let’s always live with gratitude to Jinhoo Kang.

– Haha, this is real.

The employees of Goldgate’s Korean branch all stood up and clapped.

Golden Gate continued to buy Korean stocks even when other securities companies were selling stocks and short selling. Thanks to this, the rate of return was overwhelmingly number one among all securities companies.

Hyunjoo shook his head as he watched the news.

“I think we will see the day when the Korean stock market goes up to 3,000.”

Ellie smiled brightly.

“It’s all thanks to Jinhoo and Taek-gyu, isn’t it?”

Hyunjoo smiled bitterly and nodded his head.

“Well. If it wasn’t for the two of us, we might still be staying at the 2,000 mark.”

* * *

Hyeonju woke up and reached out with his glasses on his side table.

As he put on his glasses, he saw his husband sleeping next to him. His son was asleep in the crib next to him.

Seeing the two of them sleeping next to each other, I realized once again that they were married.

He always thought that work came first, but he met a man he loved and had a child. Could you have imagined a life like this just a few years ago?

Hyeon-joo put on a robe and went out to the living room and took out a bottle of wine from the cellar. She is uncorking and drinking wine alone, when her husband comes out of the living room.

“What are you doing?”

“I can’t sleep well.”

“Can we drink together?”

“of course.”

Henry brought a glass and poured the wine. The two lightly clapped their glasses.

“Are you very busy these days?”

“You know. I don’t know how the day goes by.”

Hyunjoo brushed away the flowing hair. She woke up all of a sudden, thinking that she hadn’t even washed her face. Usually, in front of other people, he looks undisturbed, but… … It must be only in front of her husband that can show this figure.

Hyunjoo said as if making an excuse.

“Yeah, I’m still trying to keep my work hours. I also want to have dinner with my family.”

Henry hugged her quietly.

“I’m working hard, so there’s no need to overdo it.”

“Thank you.”

Somehow, she felt reassured.

“Sometimes it feels strange. After the Korean branch was established, I never thought that I would become the branch manager.”

When she joined Golden Gate and worked in New York and Hong Kong, she was just one of many.

In retrospect, all of this was due to the suggestion of her brother and sister friend that day. If she had turned down the offer, she wouldn’t have been the manager or even met Henry.

Hearing this, Henry laughed.

“Thanks to you two, we met like this.”

Hyunjoo nodded her head.

“I also met the lovely Gun-i.”

It was hard to even imagine life without them now.

Henry said while drinking wine.

“The Saemangeum new town plan seems to be going well. Should we also move to Saemangeum?”

“They said they would go unconditionally, so it should be.”

OTK Company is Golden Gate’s best customer. The mere fact that OTK Company is moving to Saemangeum is reason enough to change the company. However, as the size of the Korean branch grew, I felt the need for expansion.

In Korea, there is a saying that Seoul is Korea, and the concentration of Seoul is serious. Synergy occurs when people and capital are concentrated in one place. However, to a certain extent, if everything is concentrated in Seoul as it is now, it is rather negative.

“The new Saemangeum city will become a new growth engine for Korea.”

Various new industries are already simmering in Korea. This can also be called the OTK effect.

Hyeon-joo stuck his tongue out.

“I still can’t believe how they came up with that idea.”

In fact, anyone can think. But investing money to make that idea a reality is something no one can do.

“Jinhoo has something that others don’t have. What should I say about that? Inspiration as an investor? Talent?”

Henry immediately understood what he meant.

“If you look at a ball flying at 100 mph and judge whether it is a fastball or a changeup, the ball is already in the catcher’s glove. A good hitter senses the pitch and swings the bat sensually instead of logically reasoning. They say that feeling is acquired through training, but some people have it from birth.”

“Yes. It makes me jealous.”

It’s literally the realm of talent, not hard work. From the perspective of a person who has worked hard all his life, it is simply envious.

This is the same in any field. Just because everyone makes an effort doesn’t mean everyone can achieve the same result.

In any case, his investment talent put Kang Jin-hoo among the world’s richest men. Now, it is impossible to talk about the world economy without mentioning the aftermath of the earthquake.

“You know the word Sekai?”

Henry tilted his head.

“I do not know. Are you Japanese?”

“Yes. This is what Taek-gyu said when he was in the midst of animation. In a world that is perishing, ordinary boys and girls emerge, and their choices determine the fate of the world. Why do you think that you are different from others when you are adolescence and that you are a very important person when you get to know them?”

But those middle school students really became the most important people in the world.

The higher a person rises, and the more money he has, the greater his influence on the world.

It is difficult for an individual’s actions to have a significant impact on society, but the policies the president put forward determines the lives of the people.

Henry nodded his head as if he understood.

“Actually, it was the same with Big One.”

Big One collapsed Silicon Valley, the cradle of American high-tech industries. If we hadn’t prepared in advance, the world’s history would have changed drastically in the future.

“Only this new Saemangeum new town.”

It took more than 20 years for the central government to develop Pudong.

However, when Jinhoo Kang started to develop Saemangeum, world capital moved accordingly, and now the entire Saemangeum has been transformed into a huge construction site.

“Hyeon-joo’s help was a big factor in their success.”

“With the help I gave, anyone could do it. If it wasn’t for me, the two of us would have done well.”

Hyeon-joo remembered the first time he met Jin-hoo Kang. Until then, he was a college student himself, and his brother and his friend were immature middle school students.

“Jinhoo wanted to go to Korea University, so she taught me this and that. Those kids have grown up like that. I make a lot of money too. But in my eyes they still look like children. All I can do is worry.”

Henry laughed softly.

“Maybe they both want it.”

Hyunjoo smirked.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“Don’t you think I’m just a nag?”

“My grandfather said. Even when everything is going well, someone should always be worried and suspicious.”

Hyunjoo said as he drank the remaining wine.

“What kind of future will these children open up?”

Henry seemed to know what she was worried about.

A murderer with a gun or a knife kills dozens, but a dictator can kill tens of millions with good intentions.

If they misuse the capital they have, many people may get hurt.

Henry gently wrapped her arms around her shoulder.

“They will definitely lead in a good direction. Because Hyunjoo will keep nagging next to you like now.”

At that, Hyunjoo smiled.

“Go back to bed. I think I will be able to sleep well today.”

The development of Saemangeum proceeded at a tremendous pace.

Excluding companies related to OTK Company, the biggest investment is in Seoseong Group.

Even if the market caps of all affiliates are combined, it is not enough for OTK Company, but the influence in Korea is more than that. Thanks to the expansion of self-driving cars, the semiconductor supercycle continued, and Suseong Electronics’ cash reached KRW 500 trillion.

Suseong Electronics decided to pour 180 trillion won into a semiconductor cluster to be built in Saemangeum new city. This included not only memory semiconductors, but also expansion of non-memory semiconductor facilities.

Seoseong SB decided to invest 70 trillion won to establish the largest OTK battery factory in Korea, and Ceylon Hotel to invest 5 trillion won in a complex resort and 3 trillion won in Silver Town linked with Seoseong Hospital.

Chairman Im Jin-yong took care of the related matters.

“Saemangeum is the future of Korea and the future of our Seosung Group.”

Other large companies as well as related SMEs moved along with Seoseong Group’s aggressive investment.

However, something unexpected happened in this situation.
