Chapter 134: <Power>

    <h4>Chapter 134:


    </h4>


    Woosung continued in detail.


    “Yongsan is over 14 million square feet. We could build enough apartments for 30,000 families. This will, for sure, stabilize the real estate market.” Woosung took a deep breath and continued, “It will be the biggest achievement for the President and Mayor Oh.”


    “I heard you are also nning to build a space research center.”


    “It will be in the center of thend, and the surrounding building will be used to house the researchers. The idea just came to me.” Woosung looked at the two men and added, “There is one problem though. Based on my calction, this project will generate 30 billion dors, which means I won’t have any profit.”


    Oh Hoon nodded. Shin Sungmo also appeared to know this. He asked Woosung, “And there is one more problem. The recent financial crisis was due to the subprime mortgage, so the real estate market is declining. Do you really think you could sell the apartments at a decent price?”


    “Real estate market is cyclical. It will go back up in time. You don’t have to worry about that, but there is another problem. The federal government is already involved in another huge construction project. The public will have a difficult time epting both projects. You need to choose one. If it were me, I would, of course, choose the Yongsan project. It will create many jobs and help the real estate market. It also involves less environmental destruction than the other project.”


    Woosung nced at Oh Hoon and continued, “I realize it will be hard to suddenly stop such a big project, but if you can create a legitimate reason, it should be okay. I think Mayor Oh should also be the one whoes up with it. Just tell them Yongsan is being wasted right now, and it needs to be developed as soon as possible. Tell them after a long discussion with the President, it was decided that Yongsan project is a better choice for the people.”


    Oh Hoon brightened. Woosung continued quickly, “You can use that project’s constructionpanies on the Yongsan project. Imagine how people will react when they learn about the space research facility.”


    The two men looked at Woosung expectantly. Woosung said confidently.


    “The next election will be a breeze for you.”


    Shin Sungmo grinned. Oh Hoon smiled.


    “Yongsan is definitely the obvious choice. I like it!”


    Woosung nodded.


    ***


    After the meeting, Shin Sungmo asked for a private meeting with Woosung.


    Shin Sungmo said quietly, “Thank you for your hard work, President Kang.”


    “Haha, no problem. Everyone worked really hard.”


    “I saw the tax investigation report, and it was spotless. The President was also impressed.”


    “Paying the taxes is my duty as a proud Korean.”


    “So we prepared an Exemry Taxpayer Award for you. It will be announced soon.”


    “Thank you.”


    “The reason I asked to talk to you in private was because I was curious about your analysis technique.”


    “Alright. Please continue.”


    The prime minister whispered, “Is it true you could affect the result for Mayor Oh’s re-election?”


    “I can’t give you an exact number, but the answer is yes to some extent.”


    “Could the same technique be used in other elections?”


    “As you know, an election involves many different factors. It is very hard to say.”


    Shin Sungmo looked unhappy as he asked, “Then I will be direct. Who do you think will be the next President of Korea?”


    Woosung knew the answer but replied, “I am not in a position to talk about things like that.”


    Shin Sungmo asked in a husky voice, “How about me? I am being praised for my work as the prime minister. With projects like this, I should have a chance.”


    Woosung remained quiet.


    Shin Sungmo continued, “I need your expertise to make this happen.”


    Woosung still couldn’t answer. He just stared at the prime minister.


    Shin Sungmo added, “Attorney Lee can’t run in the next election anyway, which means the only other real potential winner is Oh Hoon, but I have a better chance.”


    Woosung thought carefully and finally replied, “This isn’t something I can answer right now.”


    “I understand. Think about it. Remember, however, that our rtionship will be very advantageous for you.”


    Woosung returned to his office and sat down.


    He murmured.


    “President…President…”


    What should he do? If he took a side, he would lose all the other important political figures. This was why most businessmen bribed many different politicians.


    ‘The next president will actually be Liberal’s Park Hyejung.’


    In Woosung’s previous life, Oh Hoon resigns in a year due to a nasty scandal. Woosung didn’t remember the name Shin Sungmo, which meant he probably got fired at some point.


    “A warrant for Choi Taemin was issued too. He was released eventually, but I will make sure he doesn’t this time. This will help in destroying Daeyang.”


    Park Hyejung will be the first female president, and the first president to be impeached while serving her presidency. Choi Taemin will be one of many businessmen who were caught being involved in this scandal.


    “What should I do?”


    He wanted to ask Jang Gwangchul’s opinion, but Woosung was worried about what he said before. Jang Gwangchul warned Woosung many times about the dangers of getting involved in politics. He didn’t want to worry Jang Gwangchul.


    “The next President has to be Park Hyejung so Choi Taemin goes to jail. I will destroy Choi Gichul using Bitcoin.”


    Woosung stood up and left to the Bitmain headquarter.


    ***


    The office was quiet except for a loud criticism from one man to another.


    “Hey! Do it better and faster! The tenth server is down, do you not see it? Are you blind? Log in right now and check it!”


    “Yes, sir.”


    “What? You didn’t fix it first? You need to fix it before checking the log!”


    As Park Jonghyun screamed, Jung Jinsup looked stressed and confused. His fingers moved fast on the keyboard, but he kept making mistakes.


    “No Such Function.”


    “No Such Function.”


    Every time Jung Jinsup made a mistake, Park Jonghyun yelled louder.


    Jung Jinsup was wet with sweat. He looked pathetic.


    “Do you not see the number of users increasing fast? If something goes wrong, you are to me. You know that, right?”


    Park Jonghyun continued his bullying while the other employees looked at Jung Jinsup with sympathy.


    Woosung watched for a few minutes before making himself known.


    “Hmm…”


    Park Jonghyun turned around and greeted him.


    “Oh, hey.”


    Jung Jinsup nced at Woosung quickly, but at Park Jonghyun’s re, he quickly went back to work.


    Woosung asked Park Jonghyun, “So how’s everything going? It’s only the first day we opened for the transaction, so it must not be very busy.”


    “You’re right. We haven’t had anyone attempting to exchange Coconut for cash, but we have over 100,000 people who registered.”


    “So when will you start the cryptocurrency transaction service?”


    “July first.”


    Woosung’s Bitmain could be the very first in the world.
