‘Because Chairman Sung So-hee said that there is also a kids phone…’
This is why parent meetings are so important.
“Ha Yeon-ah, do you want a cell phone?”
“yes!”
There was not an inch of hesitation.
“What would you do if you got a cell phone?”
“I’m going to call a friend.”
okay. It’s good to call a friend.
I handed over the phone to Hayeon. The child bowed his belly button.
“Thank you.”
Then I sat down on the couch and started calling my friends. It was a story that I might change the time I go to the piano academy.
‘I remember making schedules with my friends when I was young.’
Since it was a rural area with no academy, after school, we would go around the village and play together. The goal was to set a time to meet after dinner.
We decided on a place and time to meet through discussions, and sometimes it led to fights.
Looking back, it was a memory.
Ha-yeon jumped up from her seat and came running.
“I decided to go to the piano academy late. Thank you for lending me your cell phone.”
Ha-yeon bowed her belly button again.
stroked the child’s head.
“Let’s go buy a cell phone tomorrow.”
“really?”
“okay.”
Maybe I should buy a kids phone.
Most of my friends have cell phones, but it would have been difficult for Ha-yeon to not have one.
I must have been sad because of my ugly father who couldn’t take care of me properly, but Ha-yeon, who just said thank you, felt pitiful and cute.
He hugged the child and rubbed his cheek.
“Wow! Dad, why are you like this?”
“It’s because we like Ha-yeon.”
“Then I’m fine too.”
Hayeon’s hands touched my cheeks. Ha-yeon grabbed my face and rubbed her soft cheeks.
“Do you want something to eat for dinner?”
“Galbi!”
Who is not the father’s daughter?
Ribs were always marinated in our house. Because I asked the chef to make a special request so that the ribs would not fall apart.
“Yes. Let’s eat ribs.”
“Wow! Exciting!!”
Hayeon was delighted and jumped up and down in place.
The innocence of being so happy with just something to eat seemed to heal my heart.

I bought Ha-yeon a kids phone. It was a version with an application that could be tracked in case of emergency.
‘The fight against Yusan Lee is over, but you never know when or where an accident will happen.’
There was nothing wrong with being careful.
Ha-yeon was very happy to receive the cell phone as a gift and kissed me on the cheek several times. It tickled as if the sensation was still there.
‘I can’t believe he likes it that much.’
My mood also improved.
As the trustworthiness of the employee who had 89% reliability last time increased to 90%, now there is only one person left to receive the special reward.
And if you’re lucky, you could fill that one today. It was Park Jae-seop, director of Daebak Securities.
I have known Director Park Jae-seop for a long time, and it gave him a pretty high rate of return.
‘Recently, he often asked me useful information.’
He gave a reward every time he asked for information, but I had a lot of fun by combining the information he gave me with the eyes of the observer.
‘The watcher’s eyes are very useful if there is a source.’
It was a skill to select three stocks and check stock prices the next day. It has been mainly used for companies with big issues such as M&A results and performance announcements.
And the list of companies was managed by an expert introduced by Director Park Jae-seop.
After waiting for a while at the appointed place, Director Park Jae-seop opened the door and came in.
“Chairman Kim Jae-gu. It’s been a while.”
“Director Park Jae-seop. How have you been?”
“Thanks to you, I had a very good time. I came 20 minutes early, but I was embarrassed that you came first.”
“it’s okay.”
He had a nice smile.
“What did you call for today?”
“Since you helped me in many ways, I wanted to treat you to a meal.”
“How much did Chairman Kim Jae-gu do for me, and I have to buy it.”
“Today I wanted to treat you, so I made an appointment, so can I buy it for you?”
Park Jae-seop coughed.
“If Chairman Kim Jae-gu says so, would you give me a chance to live next time?”
“Of course. Feel free to schedule an appointment.”
His eyes flashed with life.
“Aren’t you busy?”
“Even if you’re busy, you have to make time to meet director Park Jae-seop.”
Tears welled up in Park Jae-seop’s eyes.
‘I’m impressed by this, right?’
It was a bit embarrassing, but with this reaction, it seemed like it was time to use the skill.
‘Use the eyes of trust.’
[Reliability 94%]
‘uh?’
It was a higher number than expected.
I didn’t even think of it because I didn’t see his face often, but I thought Park Jae-seop thought of me this way.
‘It’s dangerous to hand over insider information, but I was willing to risk it myself…’
Looking back, it was natural.
After a while, pop-ups popped up one after another.
[Special quest conditions have been achieved.]
[We will give you a special reward]
[Special Reward: I got the Eye of the Pioneer.]
The pressure is different.
After clearing the special mission of the level 5 quest, a skill called ‘Pioneer’s Eye’ was created.
‘Eye of the Pioneer? It seems like a good skill for some reason.’
[Effect] Check the feasibility of a specific skill]
[caution)
1. Check if the theory of technology is feasible.
2. The economics of the technology are not evaluated.
3. Evaluate only one skill.
4. The document must be less than 50,000 Korean characters.
5. Cooldown is 1 week.
6. A hint occurs with a 10% chance. ]
My mouth dropped open when I read the contents carefully.
‘Confirming the feasibility of technology?’
It was a technology that scientists would jump for joy if they knew about it. It was regrettable that investors did not evaluate the economic feasibility of the technology, but this was a hit.
Besides, what is the hint?
‘If you work in collaboration with Roborabo, the synergy is no joke. Should I start a new company instead?’

Just judging the feasibility of the technology saved me a lot of time. The cooldown of one week seemed quite long, but…
‘Still, I can’t believe I can use this technique every week.’
With this skill, I would be able to invest in startups efficiently by checking innovative technologies every week. It is not possible to invest several years in a technology that does not work, so it was a great thing to be able to predict the possibility of success in advance.
“Chairman Kim Jae-goo. Are you okay?”
Director Park Jae-seop’s voice brought me to reality.
“I’m sorry. I remembered the first time I met Director Park Jae-seop. The director came to visit me when I was a child.”
It’s only been a little over a year, but it feels like a long time has passed.
‘There have been too many ups and downs in the meantime.’
It felt like a long time because I experienced things in just one year that would take decades of normal living.
“You’re a kid. If you say you’re a kid with that rate of return, you’ll be stoned.”
“Wasn’t Syd small?”
“It was a ridiculous rate of return.”
He poured a drink into my glass.
“Thanks to the chairman, our housekeeping has improved.”
“Isn’t it thanks to the pioneering plan of the director who came to me?”
He also poured a drink into his glass.
I felt very good after completing the quest.
“Thank you for your continued support. Chairman Kim Jae-gu.”
We had a mutually beneficial relationship. If he threw a topic that spread in the industry, he made money by using it.
I wanted to have a long-lasting relationship with him.
“Let’s go together for a long time.”
I bumped into a glass with him.
I was drunk today

Now that he had acquired the skill called Eye of the Pioneer, it was time to use it.
‘Should I do something worthwhile for money?’
I was unable to use it for 100% investment due to overflowing assets, so I decided to look for a place to invest for a long time.
Although the survival rate of deep tech startups was high, it was clear that good results could be achieved if they could pick the grains in the early stages.
‘It’s good to encourage them if they know that it’s a skill that works.’
It was like looking at an answer sheet and developing a skill, so I was able to encourage them to the fullest even when they were having a hard time.
Getting started is hard. The person who helped you when you were having a hard time will be remembered for the rest of your life.
‘Of course I’ll take the stake.’
After acquiring the skill, the first place to visit was Robora. Roborabo had the best performance among robot development startups and was famous for investing heavily in prior technologies.
It was disappointing that Owen Hawkins’ reliability was less than 90%, but an 84% reliability was also a reliable reliability.
‘I have to ask to see the data first.’
As one of the major shareholders of Roborabo, I think I have that level of authority. I contacted him and immediately boarded a plane to San Francisco.
‘Ha-yeon’s trauma should go away soon.’
Ha-yeon refused to go to the United States, perhaps because she was afraid of the shooting. The shock was so great that the child, the father’s wish, refused to go with him.
Recently, I started consulting with a specialist, and he said that overcoming trauma requires time and appropriate treatment. I just want the child’s wound to heal quickly.
I calmed down the child who told me not to go to America because it is dangerous for my father and boarded the plane.
Through Brayden Harper, I was introduced to stage A startups. After carefully reviewing their data, I decided to invest in two startups.
One was a start-up related to pharmaceuticals, and the other was a start-up researching eco-friendly petroleum refining technology. There were usually many IT startups, but in the case of IT, market targeting seems to be more important than feasibility, so we excluded them from the list.
‘The oil field is going to continue to increase, so it would be nice if the crude oil processing technology developed.’
I made a decision to invest, but I still had to report my face when investing. Even if the technology is good, if a person is a cheater, it’s because it’s a joke.
‘It’s a business on a chartered plane.’
A lot of money was broken every time I floated it, but it was not a waste. A seat in first class would have cost about the same.
The private plane was much more comfortable than the first class, so it was good to organize your thoughts or take a break.
‘I could give other people a lift.’
The contract in Silicon Valley went smoothly.
Brayden Harper flew from New York to Silicon Valley to help with the contract.
“(You don’t need to be so concerned.)”
“(It’s because I want to do it.)”
He was such a good person.
I wanted to ask if things were going well with Della Foster, but if I did, I wouldn’t have come here to meet you. Because you must have been busy dating.
‘It’s hard for people who like women who put work first.’
I’m glad you looked happy though. It would be better to be alone than to stare at other men in the position of unrequited love.
“(Thanks to you, I made a good investment.)”
“(There are many startups that are thirsty for investment. As an American, I thank Mr. Jaegu for actively investing in future industries.)”
he chuckled.
“(Meeting young people gives me energy.)”
“(Young people who started startups are full of energy. It’s thrilling to think that the future Bill Gates will come out of them.)”
Brayden Harper was also interested in investing in startups. Most of the capital he operated was entrusted, so he could not invest much, but he said that he invested whenever he had time with his personal capital.
‘Investing in the future is a good thing.’
Wouldn’t it be cool if a future tech leader emerges from among the people I invested in?
“(Mr. Jaegu is such a wonderful person. Mr. Della deserves a crush on him.)”
“(hahahaha. I do fall for you. I’m just curious.)”
“(Curiosity?)”
“(Yes. Della Foster tends to believe in fate.)”
