Chapter 637 – Basic Instinct
Wall Street.
The center of world finance.
It is a place where all the money on earth seems to be gathered.
Slap~!
Everyone is rich.
Money is as common as a stone.
That statement was half right and half wrong.
‘Ha…’
Richard is a Wall Street guy.
At least that’s what they call themselves.
He once managed a prosperous fund.
Handling billions of dollars in funds.
“Please enter slowly, starting with the person in front of you. The AI has to recognize it.”
“Okay, let me come on board!”
Past tense.
It’s shabby now.
We have to go on a boat together every day.
‘No matter how much time passes, this place never changes.’
Manhattan is an island.
You can only step across the river.
Beep!
I commute by boat.
You become accustomed to the fishy smell of water.
“Damn, this damn AI drives so slow.”
“They don’t even clean it properly.”
“Because the tickets are cheap.”
People who accompany you.
Complaints are almost always on our lips.
‘I’m going to ride it anyway, so it’s noisy.’
It has to be that way.
Jersey City.
It is a residential area located on the west side of Manhattan.
House prices are relatively cheap.
As a result, there are problems that arise.
Slap~!
I don’t want to connect the two regions.
I think there is a difference in level.
‘If only the bridge had been built, I could have taken the bus.’
Even in 2031, we still travel by boat.
That’s not to say I’m dissatisfied.
Home prices in Jersey City.
Because of this inconvenience, it is also cheap.
Shake!
The problem lies next.
The ship arrives at the dock in Manhattan.
No, it’s Wall Street.
It starts with the building on the right.
“Ugh…”
“Today is even more shitty.”
“Damn, damn!”
People getting off the boat.
It’s worth frowning and swearing.
Because there are bad memories.
The securities company located in that building.
‘A bastard who will never live up to his name.’
It is notorious.
Such an investor.
It’s not uncommon on Wall Street.
I do anything for money.
Although it is full of people who sold their souls to the devil.
Wow!
Wow!
Kaaaaak~!! Hehe!
Even those people hold out their tongues.
Even the word evil is not enough.
In front of the flower bed.
Applying fertilizer every morning becomes a daily routine.
It’s a small revenge.
‘When I was younger.’
Richard was the Chief Investment Officer of Merlin Capital.
He received an annual salary of tens of millions of dollars.
Just one mistake changed my life.
The owner of that building.
It was against Lee Chan-wook.
Gulp!
I suffered astronomical losses.
It’s also a truly absurd process.
‘If only I hadn’t been caught up in that bastard’s face.’
I felt like I was possessed by a ghost.
At the time, I thought that some kind of idiot had appeared.
It gets twisted little by little.
It spreads so much that you can’t even use your hands.
It was completely planned out.
I even suffered personal losses while trying to make up for it.
We are still paying off that debt.
‘What a dog.’
‘A bastard to chew on.’
‘A bastard who looks like a cult leader.’
Such a situation.
It’s not just one or two people.
Everyone on Wall Street has a shining time.
I fell from the top.
No, it is more accurate to say that he was pushed down.
Wall Street is that kind of place.
Potential competitors.
As much as someone makes money, someone loses money.
Aang~♡
The competition is artificially triggered.
It produces countless losers.
And myself.
“The crazy guy started in broad daylight.”
“That guy is the CEO of a securities company.”
“The woman is pretty…”
On top of the building.
I stick my head out the window.
He is moaning proudly.
It’s like hitting the cake.
It cannot be a misunderstanding unless it is a misunderstanding.
Ahh ♡ aaaaa~♡
Because it’s not just a day or two.
A tickling voice penetrates my eardrums.
Men are bound to react.
In my heart, I want to look up.
Gulp!
It can’t be done.
My heart shrinks.
Just look at that building.
‘I avoid it because I’m filthy.’
‘Wow, even at that age, he’s still immature.’
‘The woman is pretty…’
It reminds me of something that happened to me in the past.
In technical terms, it is called PTSD.
It’s not just one or two pennies.
It is an asset that I have built up throughout my life.
It was lost overnight.
It’s even weirder if it’s easily forgotten.
It leaves an unhealed wound deep in the heart.
Trap!
I get a tingling sensation every time I pass by this place.
It’s even worse because that crazy guy is doing such a damn thing.
Nevertheless, we must not pass by.
Money.
You must pass to earn.
“”…””
Even when the sun shines brightly.
Even if a cool wind blows.
Even if a blizzard rages.
You must go all year round.
For office workers, ‘going to work’ means that.
It is located at the gateway.
It is visible the moment you land at the dock.
‘I’m sure he’s enjoying it.’
‘100% on purpose!’
‘I want to see your body too…’
West of Wall Street.
Land prices are relatively cheap.
There is no reason for a successful securities company to come.
I’m holding my ground.
There will be no guessing as to the reason.
Haa♡ Haaaaa~~!
To look down on themselves as losers.
Considering his personality, it is certain.
We put on a show every day.
We have to see each other every day.
Such daily life.
Trap!
It’s enough to break your heart.
You come to accept your situation.
‘Ah…’
Eye of Sauron.
That’s the building that comes to mind.
The owner’s taste is reflected.
That foul-looking building has become a new symbol of Wall Street.
At least to the public.
* * *
Investment.
It is not about predicting the future with rational thinking alone.
‘The essence of human beings.’
It’s ugly.
I am greedy.
You can’t survive here without acknowledging that fact.
“A Korean doctor…?”
It’s understandable that the host would be embarrassed.
She has not yet reached the essence of the matter.
‘You don’t know how this world works.’
A truly unfortunate thing.
That’s why I’m appearing.
On various current affairs programs in the United States.
“Korea’s traditional group of doctors, called Oriental medicine doctors, analyze the causes of diseases from a different perspective than Western medicine.”
“Are you talking about Oriental medicine?”
“To put it bluntly, I guess so.”
It is not a simple self-promotion position.
It can be said to be a ‘war’ between power vs power.
‘Because this is America.’
It’s different from Korea.
Lee Chan-wook.
A nation is an individual and at the same time has an identity as a Korean.
“But they are fundamentally different. Japan underwent rapid Westernization after the Meiji Restoration, and China lost its identity by incorporating much of it into Western medicine. In fact, Oriental medicine majors from China and Japan cannot qualify for the Oriental medicine licensing exam in Korea. “
There is nothing you can do about it by denying it yourself.
The same applies even if you change your nationality.
‘For example.’
Game.
To learn about a character, you go through the process of looking at their occupation and hometown.
The process by which Americans judge others is similar.
The person’s background must be considered.
“It can be said that proper Oriental medicine has its roots only in Korea.”
“Oh, I see… But what is the difference between it and Western medicine?”
“That’s a good question.”
This is a characteristic that appears because it is a multi-racial and multicultural society.
It’s common sense here in America.
‘No matter how much I deny it.’
I can’t escape.
I have lived in the United States for over 20 years and have encountered and felt it.
The solution.
There is only one.
It’s about making a head-on breakthrough.
“If Western medicine examines people, Oriental medicine specializes in examining individuals.”
“Individual?”
“Yes.”
Others see me as an image.
If so, just say the word that corresponds to that image.
‘That’s how it should be.’
Character.
It is built very clearly.
You can quickly build awareness.
“The shortcomings of Oriental medicine appear when treating an unspecified number of people. When treating specific individuals, there are many areas where it is superior. In fact, the heads of conglomerates in Korea manage their health with Oriental medicine.”
“”Oh!!””
A reaction erupts from the audience.
Korea.
This is because Americans are also very interested.
————————————–±
Chaebol (chaebol)
「Noun」 A large-scale Korean industrial conglomerate operated and controlled by an individual or family.
±————————————–
Actually.
It became known indirectly through K-drama.
‘It’s fully usable.’
It is still at an ambiguous level.
I am not at a stage where I can say I know very well.
That’s why I have illusions.
You get an explosive response by adding it over.
“Sports athletes are also in the spotlight. Representative examples include the great American swimmer Phelps, Real Madrid striker Benzema, and professional gamer Mickey X.”
It just needs to be at a plausible level.
Broadcasting.
Using MSG is the same in Korea and the United States.
‘Mix the soup slightly.’
Only then will the medicine be received well.
It will also have an immediate impact on American viewers.
“Some athletes were saved by Oriental medicine when they were on the verge of retirement. There are countless so-called miraculous cases. In this way, the effectiveness of analytical medicine for specific individuals has been proven.”
“If it’s true, it’s quite surprising… I don’t know what it has to do with President Biden’s health.”
At least you can scratch your curiosity.
Buying sentiment.
It is a small turning point that causes movement.
It’s worth noting that the audience’s attention is focused.
The host also waits for my answer with a trembling voice.
“Therefore, I applied this Oriental medicine, which can be said to be a mystery of the East, to investing. The results were astounding. President Biden actually suffered from dementia.”
It makes the whole country cry.
