Chapter 480
In one of the luxurious banquet halls of the diplomatic mission run by the Korean government, a dinner event with hundreds of people was being held.
[As the general representative of Arcadia Co., Ltd., I would like to express my gratitude to everyone who attended this event despite being busy. We hope that the event we prepared will be a good time, and we hope you eat and drink to your heart\'s content.]
The event started with beautiful music and delicious food in a bright atmosphere. However, among the people gathered here, there was a subtle tension and invisible fierce nervous warfare going on everywhere.
“Ho-ho-ho. At Blue Rock Investment, the people are very gutsy. To be able to make an outrageous offer in this way face to face. Are all Wall Street people like this?”
“Miss Frey de Rothschild, the proposal we made was a matter decided on a very reasonable line.”
“is it so? Would you like to say that proposal again in front of our head of household? What will be the answer? Did you know that the City of London joined hands to share a share of that snot with us before that?”
“This is not a level that our party can tolerate. Considering the current influence of Arcadia that we great Chinese people have and their contribution in this scenario, I think we should hand over at least 5% of the stake.”
People who don\'t even think about the person who will give them rice cakes, but they are already drinking a lot of kimchi soup and discussing the distribution of rewards to receive after completely clearing the scenario. However, their discussions were running parallel to each other, each making absurd demands in the direction of their own benefit.
“I’m sorry, but the stake requested by the Chinese side is at an impossible level.”
There are thousands of organizations that have to share that 15% share, but the Chinese government greedily wants to take 5% at once. Harrison, the director of Blue Rock, said he would refuse, but the CCP officer snorted and began to press him.
“Hmm, then we have no choice but to make a choice.”
“Are you sure you want to walk your own route?”
“If we want to get a fair price for our people\'s bloody and sweaty efforts, we should consider that too. Moorim’s influence on this scenario alone is analyzed to be at least half, but I don’t think 5% is an excessive demand.”
“...I don\'t mean to disparage the efforts of the Chinese people, but I think 2% is the most appropriate price. If you come now and betray us, the price will be harsh.”
“You should be prepared for that too.”
The people in charge of each faction are fighting fiercely for the rewards to be obtained through this scenario. In their suffocating nervous warfare, one side of the banquet hall was literally like an ice field, but the other side was the complete opposite.
“wow! Gilma, try this. It\'s really great!”
“Wow... to pile up a pile of wagyu steaks like this. As expected, Arcadia Co., Ltd. has a lot of money.”
“What crazy! Rho Royal Salute 62 Year Old...?”
“You should drink this! Even if I die from a burst stomach, I will eat and die today!”
Unlike the very few people who freely manipulate capital around the world, these were ordinary people who were ordinary people. However, thanks to luck and skill, the guild leader and executives who created and led a huge guild called the hegemony guild enjoyed a splendid banquet, ate and drank luxurious food to their heart\'s content, and made the atmosphere of the banquet hotter.
“Quack! Our referee guild is still the best!”
“Pour it! Drink!”
“Brothers of the twelve stars! We are the real winners!”
“For the eternal glory of Murim!”
“Heroes! Heroes never die!”
Numerous people shouting the name of their guild, toasting and drinking. There were groups here and there laughing and chatting, but only one of them was quietly drinking a glass of wine by himself.
“Student Jaeyoung... you really came.”
“Ah boss.”
Jae-young staggers with a flushed face as if she had already drunk a lot. He glared at President Lee Mi-yeon, who was smiling brightly, and pointed to one side with his finger.
“These two guys are clamoring to take me by force if I don’t go, but how can they not come? You know you did it on purpose to bring me out, right?”
Jae-Kyun and Chae-Yeon dragged Jae-Young out of the house by force. The two of them, already dancing eccentrically in the middle of the banquet hall with excited faces, were intoxicated after drinking a lot of top-notch alcohol costing 4 million won a bottle, just like Jaeyoung.
“I’m sorry about that part. However, Jaeyoung didn’t answer the phone or send messages, but there was no reply... But I don’t think he would like to go home himself, so please understand that this was the best for me.”
Jaeyoung cut off all contact for over a month and went into hiding. I\'m not kidding, there were literally hundreds of missed calls and text messages piled up.
“Isn’t that obvious? That bastard developer very openly asks me to eat that shit, so do you accept and eat that shit because I like it?”
Others did not know at all, but Jae-young and Lee Mi-yeon knew each other very well about the purpose of this scenario. As an individual, I can\'t help it.... A scenario where you must participate as a member of a group called a guild.
And for Jae-young, who only pursues solo play without any specific forces, there was a force that he had to hold hands in order to participate in this scenario.
“Are you telling me to lead the guild of that deck... no, that fucking pervert? If not, at least I have to hold hands with them, but I can’t do that even if I die.”
What color are Dex\'s panties?
A group of dyssexuals who are morbidly obsessed with their panties and have turned it into a meme. Of course, sincerely (?), such people are few and far between, but leading those who habitually make statements close to sexual harassment and molestation to one person for fun was tantamount to social suicide. And Jaeyoung felt fear beyond goosebumps at the developer who seemed to have designed all of this.
“No, what the hell is the developer doing? No matter how much you say you roll this game like your own toy, you go so far as to say that you\'re going to fuck me in this way? Are you really going to be some kind of satanic bastard? No, at this rate, even the real Satan would lose his job.”
The mysterious developer who makes the deepest shame and humiliation you can feel as a human being with your own hands. This scenario was a huge plan designed by thoroughly targeting only Jae-Young, to the point where I wondered if he was just thinking about eating and feeding other people.
“So... can\'t we just let the deck fan club fail?”
Jae-Young, who wants to completely clear the scenario until the end of the scenario. However, in response to his question, President Lee Mi-yeon sighed deeply and murmured.
“It\'s okay, but... if you do, bigger problems will spawn.”
“What\'s wrong...?”
“First of all.... To be honest, this scenario must have been made only to fuck student Jaeyoung. So, if you stand by and don\'t dance on the stage you\'ve created, you might get upset and do some nonsense again.”
President Lee Mi-yeon shakes her head with a frown as if imagining it is terrifying. And she looked at Jaeyoung seriously and said as if giving advice.
“I don’t understand, but believe me. It just makes me feel dirty, but it\'s better to suffer. Even if he forgets the favor, he has a petty personality that pays back his grudge a hundredfold, so if you don\'t treat him, he might plot another evil thing behind his back.”
“What?”
“Besides... if Jaeyoung doesn’t step up, in the worst case... maybe World War III may break out.”
“...?”
Jaeyoung was drunk. But right now, I felt like I was sober at President Lee Mi-yeon\'s words.
“See those people in the corner over there?”
Unlike the group of people with Jaeyoung mixed in, the people exude a strange aura. As I glanced at them, President Lee Mi-yeon began to tell me the identity of each person one by one as if it was not a big deal.
“That snazzy blonde woman over there is from the Rothschild family. The middle-aged foreign man standing next to him is the negotiator of Blue Rock Investment, and the Asian with a blushing face in front of him is from the Chinese Communist Party. Oh, the people watching that fight in the back are from some royal families in the Middle East. Was it Saudi Arabia or the United Arab Emirates...”
“...?”
These are the ones you would only see on the news. Each of them has tremendous influence, so the situation where they are all gathered in one place was so strange and foreign, but even from a distance, the atmosphere looked so formidable and cold.
“Isn’t it funny?”
“What?”
“I mean those people. How long has it been since everyone said they would join forces to acquire a stake in this company? I haven’t even handed over the stake yet.”
Not just one country, but a situation involving dozens of countries around the world. Although the government directly intervenes or private companies lead the initiative, governments of each country are keenly aware of the problem. Therefore, even a small misunderstanding or friction was in a situation where there was a high risk of bringing about a huge aftermath that no one expected.
“What would happen if the place that took over the stake wiped its mouth clean? What if the Chinese or Russian governments are greedy and force you to vomit more shares? If, as an equity shareholder, you begin to tamper with this company with outrageous demands to assert your authority, will this company... or Arcadia be able to stay the way it is now?”
President Lee Mi-yeon sips alcohol with a bitter smile as if she has deviated from something. She looked at Jaeyoung\'s eyes through the twinkling lights and said.
“No one looking for a stake in this company has any interest in the virtual reality of Arcadia itself. They are just in a hurry to steal the core source technology that can implement virtual reality and to gain their country\'s... no, their own interests.”
At worst, lunatics who are ready to go to war and take a stake in this company and steal its technology. That\'s why President Lee Mi-yeon had to make Jae-young the winner of this final scenario, which could not be undone.
“That\'s why I think Jaeyoung must take that share. I love this game more than anyone else, and I just feel free without any selfishness or greed.... I think that I am a talented person who can make the world of Arcadia beautiful under the company\'s motto of infinite freedom and infinite possibilities.”
“.....”
“Oh and for world peace.”
Will you become a protagonist of an era living through a tragic world history witnessing with your own eyes how a fight over a stake in a company spreads to World War 3, or will you become a rare pervert leading perverts who indulge in black panties.
At President Lee Mi-yeon\'s words to decide between the two ridiculous options, Jae-young muttered with a look of absurdity in her eyes.
“Earth writer is really a joke.”
