super tuesday
That evening, at Eugene’s home, a small banquet was held for Vice President Han Jeong-hoon.
Most of the guests invited are superstars who are famous in the film industry or in the music world.
These stars, who are always thirsty for public attention, did not decline Eugene’s invitation, and they also showed interest in the fact that the heir of the richest family in Korea was here.
Unlike before, Eugene’s name was known all over the United States, and her status in Korea had changed quite a bit.
It is natural to be curious about what kind of person Eugene is, who is said to be the richest person in Korea, the homeland of Eugene, who hears the voice of the world’s richest person.
“How is it? Are you having a good time?”
Eugene introduced a vice president to the people gathered that day as a Korean best friend.
Thanks to this, the stars who wanted to be in Eugene’s eyes were also paying attention to a vice president.
Before Eugene spoke, a vice president was having a drink with an actress who had recently started to make a name for himself, so it was probably a good time.
“Of course. There are not many visits to the western United States, but so far, I have mostly spent time with business people and local Koreans. I’ve never spent more time with Hollywood stars than I do now.”
Vice-President Han, the crown prince of the Korean business world, had a lot of things from birth, but on the other hand, he also had a lot of restrictions.
The rich in Korea shouldn’t be too harsh. Because they have as much original sin as their wealth.
In a nutshell, should the heads of chaebols have to show that they use domestic cars of course?
It’s okay to meet celebrities individually and enjoy them quietly, but if you’re having a party with foreign stars in an open and noisy place like this day, it’s perfect to be attacked after returning home.
But today was different. Vice President Han Jeong-hoon has officially come to Eugene for business, and Eugene is not under pressure to enjoy luxury quietly like the Korean chaebols.
It is a well-known fact that Eugene always invites Hollywood celebrities to parties at her luxurious mansion in Hollywood.
It was only taken for granted in the United States, and even Koreans cannot criticize Eugene for making money in the United States.
So even a vice president could enjoy the party comfortably that day.
“It’s a really fun time. It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to meet people without pressure.”
A vice president replied cheerfully.
Eugene is well aware that it is not just about having fun meeting people.
I’ve seen him exchange very secret glances with a prospective star a while ago, but he doesn’t express it.
The party that day was a success. Vice President Han Jeong-hoon seemed to think that he had achieved satisfactory results in the negotiations with Eugene, and he seemed to have had a very good time with someone.
Vice President Han stayed at Eugene’s home for two more days before returning.
He said he would like to stay a little longer if he had more time, so whenever he came to LA, he told me to use his house comfortably even without Eugene.
One vice president nodded and returned with a happy face. He seems happy when he thinks about going to Korea and getting approval from his father.
Eugene also spent some vacation there before returning to New York.
Now the event of the century awaited.
November 8, 2016 was Election Day in the United States, called Super Tuesday.
For a while after the counting began, Hillary seemed likely to win. However, after 1 a.m., Trump’s vote rate began to rise gradually.
At 3:33 a.m. on November 9, Donald Trump secured 276 electoral votes and confirmed the election.
As a result of the counting until sunrise, it was reported that Donald Trump won 45.98% of the vote. Although she won 2% less vote than Hillary Clinton, who got 48.08%, she was able to win the election with a larger electoral college due to the unique electoral system of the United States.
It was an election result that shocked not only the United States, but the entire world.
The stock prices of countries that fell due to the Brexit shock but only recovered to normal fell all at once.
It was because of fears that the unpredictable election of Trump could lead to a crisis in the global economy.
In particular, there was an even greater decline in South Korea, which showed no interest in inter-Korean issues, and believed that a crisis could come due to Trump’s disposition to oppose the United States’ contribution to world peace.
“The stock prices of Daeyang Group affiliates are rising. In particular, major affiliates such as Daeyang Heavy Industries and Daeyang Motors rose more than 10%.”
Joanna reported with a laugh.
“Why is the stock price of Daeyang Group affiliates soaring all of a sudden? Did the rumors spread that Trump was behind the Daeyang Group?”
Eugene asked with a look of incomprehension.
“It’s the opposite. It’s because of the fact that the boss is close to Donald. Now, there seems to have been some analysis that the boss with the president of the United States behind him is going to do something about the Daeyang Group.”
It seems that a broadcaster gathered experts from various fields to report on the impact of President Trump’s inauguration on Korea.
Among them, an American political expert seems to have remarked that, since Trump became president with Kang Yu-jin’s support, he would follow Kang’s opinion in the future on Korean matters.
Following that, an economist informed an aide that Kang Yu-jin was seeking a hostile takeover of Daeyang Group, and from that moment on, it seems that the sound of Kang Yu-jin finally swallowing Daeyang Group was spread to almost all stock-related communities.
A hostile takeover of the Daeyang Group requires a larger stake.
If Kang Yoo-jin takes over the now messed up Daeyang Group, it will grow into a global group.
Either way, if you own Daeyang Group stock, you will never lose money.
About this flow of logic, the stock prices of all affiliates of the Daeyang Group suddenly began to soar.
“The problem between the boss and the Daeyang Group is now a constant for those who do stocks in Korea. It’s not a matter of whether the boss acquires Daeyang Group or not, it just matters when.”
“It’s fun.”
Eugene knows very well how easy it is for stockholders to get caught up in fake information.
Moreover, there is nothing particularly false about the events that became the basis of this commotion.
Everyone knows that Eugene and Donald are closely related.
Everyone is well aware that Eugene harbors animosity towards the Daeyang Group.
So, in a way, this situation will be an inevitable result.
“What should I do? Shall we make a statement that we are not interested in the acquisition of Daeyang Group?”
“no. Just leave it alone.”
However, Eugene decided to stand by the incident related to the Daeyang Group.
Rather, it is because people who have entered now know that they will not move hastily again only if they properly exercise their spirits.
“And for the time being, our investment direction is to maximize leverage on the US stock market.”
There will be no special economic events for a while. Therefore, it makes sense to invest in the US stock market, where the highest returns are expected.
In the first year of Trump’s election, the US stock market will rise by at least 20%.
This means that even if you simply invest in stock indexes with 3x leverage, you can earn up to 60% returns in one year.
“You mean maximum leverage, right?”
Joanna asked, rolling her eyes. He seems to be full of enthusiasm.
“uh. At least for the next two years, the stock market is going to be booming.”
“All right. Then I will focus in that direction.”
Now Joanna had no doubts about Eugene’s instructions.
When Eugene suggests a direction, he just works hard to get the maximum profit based on it.
That’s enough.
The team led by Joanna is made up of experts who are considered the best on Wall Street.
It’s exciting to see what happens when they know the future has already been set and roll over $500 billion in cash.
“I sent congratulations to Donald. They asked when they would come.”
Reported by Monica, who is in charge of publicity and protocol.
“Even if you don’t, it will be full of people wanting to say hello right now, so ask Donald to let you know when you have time.”
If you go there now, all you can do is look at Donald’s arrogant figure, who will be surrounded by flatters anyway.
“All right. And Wally Adeyemo wants to meet him.”
The call comes very quickly.
Wally Adeyemo is a man who holds an important position as national security adviser in the Obama administration.
And not long ago, Eugene had proposed to him to work with him if the next government wouldn’t call him.
At the time, Wally Adeyemo didn’t show much interest.
Wally Adeyemo, much loved by high-ranking Democrats, was certain she could hold a prominent position if Hillary Clinton was elected president.
But with Donald’s victory in this election, Wally Adeyemo can no longer stay at the White House, and he seems to have recalled Eugene’s proposal.
“Try connecting right away.”
As Eugene, who had been recruiting many political figures for a long time, did not want to miss the opportunity to acquire Wally Adeyemo.
“It’s unfortunate.”
First of all, I would like to express my condolences to the Democratic Party, who suffered a shocking defeat in this election.
– It’s unavoidable. As you said, the power of women after Black People was unreasonable. Looks like I had to take a break at least once.
The results of this election were quite unique. In Washington, D.C., the most political district in the United States, Hillary won over 90 percent of the vote.
It means that so-called learned and awake people have a hard time supporting Donald Trump. On the other hand, the results show that the majority of white men chose Trump.
This means that most white men are reluctant to hand over the hegemony of power to women after black men.
– It’s frustrating this time, but the recoil of history won’t always win.
Adeyemo, an elite black politician, saw Donald’s victory as going against the flow of history.
“There will be a good chance next time. Until then, why not stay with us? There are two months left and it seems like a premature offer, but that’s because I like Wally.”
Eugene is a person who can flatter anyone if necessary. I have no intention of saving anything, especially to attract talented people.
If you’re the size of Wally Adeyemo, there are plenty of places you want to go, even if it’s not Eugene. Even if Eugene knows right now, he must be trying to scout from BlackRock.
– It takes a little more time. Suggestions are always appreciated.
“Sure. If you have any thoughts, please let me know.”
– By the way, the fact that Eugene is taking a bunch of people who worked for our boss has been a hot topic lately.
Adeyemo’s contact seems to have other intentions.
“Can’t people who worked at the White House be trusted anywhere?”
– I’m glad you think so. Obama is interested in Eugene. I wonder what kind of person you are. He said if there was an opportunity to meet him at any time.
Wally’s call was probably to inform Obama’s intentions.
“haha. I also wanted to talk to Mr. President once.”
Eugene barely understood. He seems to know that he promised a huge sum for his partner, Biden.
– So, before you leave the White House, is it okay if I invite you one more time?
“Of course. It doesn’t matter as long as it’s not a burden on Mr. President.”
It seemed that he would stop by the White House first before Trump’s inauguration.
