Chapter 418

When I heard Taek-gyu’s story, I was taken aback.

“And he said he met those three at the same place?”

“Well, is it a social gathering for Lost Fantasy fans?”

All three are busy.

Would those girls ever come out to talk about games?

“You are popular these days.”

Taek-gyu muttered with a serious expression.

“Come to think of it, I’ve never been popular with a woman before.”

“… … Don’t take that seriously.”

It hurts my heart for nothing!

I patted her on the shoulder as a sign of consolation.

“I know how you feel.”

Then Taehyung shouted.

“lie! How does an insider like you know my heart? You even got a confession from a high school girl!”

Ellie, who was listening to the story next to her, was startled.

“To a high school girl?”

This is by no means strange. because… … .

I shouted at Taek-gyu.

“At that time, I was in high school too!”

What’s wrong with a high school student being confessed to by a high school student?

If other people hear it, they will be misunderstood.

“Aside from that, you said that you confessed that you liked middle school girls when you were in college?”

“Ah… … .”

There was such a thing.

But why are you talking about it here?

All of a sudden, Ellie was giving me a cold gaze.

“You’re a high school girl… … Jinhoo, she was such a person.”

I waved my hand.

“Well, it’s not like that.”

“How the hell did she meet that middle school girl?”

“When she was in freshman year, she was part-time tutoring for a while.”

“So what happened?”

“Of course she refused.”

“Are you continuing tutoring?”

“It was short-term anyway, so I quit after two months.”

Ellie looked at me and smiled.

“Hmm, now that I look at it, Jinhoo is quite popular.”

“What… … .”

To be honest, she wasn’t very popular or anything. Wouldn’t it just be average?

But in times like these, it’s best to pretend you’re there as much as possible, right?

I just shrugged my shoulders.

“There were some girls who wanted to study together during the exam period. Later, after I got accepted to Korea University and got my name in front of the school, other classmates and juniors came and made similar confessions.”

Ellie’s eyes lit up.

“really? How many?”

“I do not know. Is it one or dozen?”

There were actually three. To be precise, it wasn’t a confession, just to the extent of just wanting to be close in the future?

I was stabbed for lying, so I changed the topic.

“By the way, how was Ellie when she was in school? Was it popular?”

Ellie frowned slightly.

“Ugh, I hate just thinking about it.”

“why?”

“I went to an international school, and the boys talked to the point where I couldn’t study. Even male students from other schools keep coming to the front of the school, so phone calls from parents pour in to protest, and I get scolded for nothing. Ah! There have even been times when I have confessed to a girl. Even then, her hair was short. If she refused, she cried on the spot and there was no fuss.”

“… … .”

She has a pretty face, studies well, and is good at sports. No wonder she was popular. There’s no point in having to brag about her popularity in front of Ellie.

As she quickly lowered her raised shoulder, her Taek-gyu crossed her arms and muttered with a serious expression.

“Is this the moteki you’ve only heard of?”

“… … Don’t take that seriously.”

Ellie looked at me and asked.

“What is moteki?”

“It means that you will reach the peak of popularity three times in your life. It’s usually not popular, but suddenly people around you are of the opposite sex.”

“Really?”

“It’s just a myth.”

In general, popularity is like money, so those who have it will continue to exist, and those who do not will continue to be absent.

“There is such a word in Korea. I was the only one who didn’t know.”

“It’s not Korean, it’s Japanese. It’s a word used only in the industry over there, so most Koreans won’t know it.”

But how do I know this?

“So which of the three do you like?”

“I’m seriously thinking about it.”

“Can’t we just decide?”

“No. Once you decide on a route, wouldn’t it be the marriage ending?”

“… … Huh?”

Does this child misunderstand the reality and the unreal?

Most Miyeonsi have a marriage ending when they decide to date, but in reality, dating doesn’t necessarily mean getting married. Rather, aren’t there more cases of separation in the meantime?

I said to Taek-gyu, who was worried.

“Anyway, work hard. Whether you want to enjoy moteki for the first time in your life or not.”

“But that’s not to say that this isn’t necessarily a good thing.”

“What’s wrong with that?”

“If you do it wrong, it could be a nice boat ending.”

“Oh, you have to be careful. You have to be really careful.”

Ellie tilted her head.

“A nice boat? What does that mean?”

“… … .”

This is too long to explain again… … .

As we were talking in bed together, Ellie asked.

“Did Jinhoo ever think that he wanted to meet another woman?”

“No.”

“She doesn’t answer right away, think seriously.”

I thought seriously, then she answered.

“Not at all.”

“There are a lot of women who say they like Jinhoo. So did Rose McDowell, and so did Angelina Tinter.”

I burst into laughter as I recalled the incident.

“These women aren’t Ellie.”

Ellie stared at me.

“Where do you like me?”

“Everything is good.”

“Really?”

“of course.”

“I love you?”

“I love you.”

I looked into Ellie’s eyes and said.

“The best thing I did was to meet Ellie.”

As important as success in work, finding a good mate is important.

Bill Gates, who was once infamous as a rogue Silicon Valley entrepreneur, became the world’s largest donor after marrying the company’s programmer, Melinda.

Jake Byron has said that he wouldn’t have started AMZ without his wife McKinsey Byron. His wife also stood by and helped him when he smashed a successful company and created the online bookstore AMZ (although he had just announced her divorce).

Facenote CEO Mike Goldenberg immediately married the lover he met after the listing. It is said that his marriage contract even specified time spent with his family.

What if I hadn’t met Ellie? She would have continued to earn money, but she would not have felt as happy as she is now.

Ellie smiled and hugged me.

She said, “I love Jinhoo too.”

With the global economy showing a moderate upward trend, the world’s attention was focused on Russia.

This is because Professor Petrov’s team started full-scale operation of the TWR. OPEC and shale companies, as well as countries around the world, have been watching the situation closely.

This is because, depending on the direction of TWR, the global energy market may change.

The results were not significantly different from everyone’s expectations.

[(Breaking News) Successful commercialization of a traveling wave reactor!][Professor Petrov’s team, there is no problem with performance and safety][CEO Rosatom Trusova reveals that the nuclear power plant market will be reorganized into TWR in the future][President Vysotsky sends congratulations directly to officials]

– Wow! A new reactor. Were the brown bear hyungs at this level of skill?

-The skill of touching nuclear weapons since the days of the Soviet Union has gone nowhere.

-Nuclear development was the easiest in the world~

– Jinhoo Kang, who invested in it, is even more amazing. You invested later than Warren Boat, and it paid off earlier.

– Is TWR the trend for new nuclear power plants now?

-Professor Petrov will win the Nobel Prize in Physics.

-Professor Ho-Min Kim, Professor Pettirov after Professor Mohan? What kind of investment do you get from Jinhoo Kang to win a Nobel Prize?

– But what is KHNP doing? Aren’t you supposed to run over there?

– We need to phase out nuclear power.

When the experiment was successful, commercialization was only a matter of time. However, it was thanks to the participation of nuclear power plant companies in each country that the road to commercialization was opened so quickly.


Oil prices fell by more than 4 percent on the news of the development of a new reactor, and the stock prices of related companies that are expected to benefit greatly rose.

Trusova announced plans to build three TWRs in Kaliningrad.

Kaliningrad is a region facing the Baltic Sea, originally connected to the mainland of Russia, but fell apart like an island when the three Baltic countries became independent.

It is in the middle of Western and Eastern Europe, and crossing the Baltic Sea leads directly to Northern Europe. It has been in the spotlight as a production base for automobile companies for a long time as it can enjoy geographical advantages and lower labor costs compared to Western Europe by building a factory here. Karos also pointed this out as a European production base.

The fact that Rosatom was building a TWR near its industrial complex meant that he had that much confidence.

The ruble rose on expectations of economic recovery, and President Vysotsky’s approval rating exploded.

Currently, Russia is subject to economic sanctions from the West. So far, the approval rating has been raised through territorial disputes, but there is no need to do so when the economy is recovering.

President Vysotsky held talks with European leaders every day to emphasize economic cooperation, and to this end, he expressed his will to implement the Minsk Agreement.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

The armed conflict in Ukraine has ceased. Although Russia still has real influence in eastern Ukraine and an army is stationed at the border, the worst has been avoided.

As the situation in Ukraine entered a lull, there was an atmosphere that NATO allies took a breather.

In Europe, influential media poured articles saying, “Jinhoo Kang did what NATO couldn’t do.”

Rosatom also considered building a large number of TWRs at the border and then selling electricity to neighboring countries.

Even today, Europe relies heavily on Russian pipelines for its natural price imports. However, this will lead to a situation in which the country will depend entirely on Russia for its power.

As Europe moved to ease economic sanctions on Russia, France, unlike Germany, was cautious. The reason is, of course, that France has the largest nuclear power plant company in Europe, EDF.

Experts predicted that Rosatom would surpass EDF and become the world’s largest nuclear power plant company.

I spoke to President Vysotsky.

“Congratulations.”

he laughed out loud.

[Your prediction was correct. Thanks to the TWR, the Russian nuclear power industry is in the spotlight worldwide. The heads of countries are also showing great interest.]

I was very excited from the sound. Well, these days, the approval rating, the ruble, and the stock price have risen significantly, so it’ll be exciting.

Energy is the country’s top priority.

As we all know, Russia is a resource-dependent economy. Except for the arms industry, however, it did not stand out particularly in the manufacturing industry.

The commercialization of the TWR was a new opportunity for Russian manufacturing. Digging and selling underground natural gas has little job-inducing effect.



However, nuclear power plants create many jobs in construction as well as maintenance. The parts industries below will also grow together.

Also, if industrial electricity can be supplied at a low price, other manufacturing plants can be attracted.

The immediate benefits we can get from TWR are few. The value of the stake has already risen more than five times compared to when it was invested, but it cannot be sold elsewhere according to the contract. Only

Anyway, the money Rosatom earns from TWR will continue to be used to build new nuclear power plants. It is meaningful in that it has taken a step forward in the Russian market and the future energy industry rather than immediate profits.

As TWR increases, the influence of OTK Company in the energy market will also increase.

[How is Saemangeum going? Shouldn’t a TWR be built there too?]

“Yes. Saemangeum will be a good opportunity for economic cooperation between Korea and Russia.”

A research complex and related facilities for the aerospace industry will be built in Saemangeum.

Russia lags behind Korea in most industries. However, there are clearly areas where Russia has strengths. One of them is the aerospace industry.

Not to mention aviation, space development is not immediately profitable, but it is clear that it is an important industry for the future.

The top three in this field are, of course, the United States, China, and Russia.

In terms of technology, the United States is still the best, and China has successfully launched a manned spacecraft by pouring a huge amount of money into the country over the past 10 years. Russia is a traditional space powerhouse, although investment has slowed recently.

Developed countries are already paying attention to space development, and Korea is also showing great interest as its economic level has risen to some extent.

[By the way, Chairman Im Jin-yong was arrested. Are you okay?]

“of course.”

‘Cause I’m not guilty

[If there is a problem, let me know. I will do whatever I can to help.]

“Thank you for your words.”

Does it mean that Russia is behind the U.S.?

There’s nothing bad about it for me.

[I have a summit meeting with the Korean president soon, so let’s have a drink of vodka then. I will buy it.]

“Okay.”
