The movie begins

I sincerely did not want to come to the premiere of ‘God of Investment’.

3 hours ago, a text came.

―Myungwoo Oh: Is today the very day?

-Kim Shin: That’s right.

―Oh Myung-woo: There are certain things a man must do even if he wears a blanket later on.

“after… … .”

Why did you decide to attend?

‘Was it wrong to make a movie?’

It could have been made moderately B-grade, but the best actors in Korea recruited by Dream Art Rainbow appeared in the movie.

A large number of Hollywood staff members joined in.

―Vice President Jeong Beom-tae: In order to properly film the CEO’s childhood, we created 7 areas for the large set alone.

―Vice President Jung Beom-tae: To be faithful to the historical research, I made the PC room where I worked part-time. The keyboard, mouse, and mouse pad, as well as the parts used on the body, are the same as the products of 12 years ago. Even the refrigerator and the drinks on display were kept as they were.

No, was there a need to diligently research the Internet cafe?

I’m sure it’s not like they’re going to install an older version of Windows.

―Vice President Jung Beom-tae: The semi-basement room where you lived for a long time. Another person lived in that house, and it was difficult to get permission from the local government because it was inside a narrow alley.

―Vice President Jeong Beom-tae: But who am I? Seeing the representative who created miracles, I learned something even though it was at the level of scratching the surface.

―Vice President Jeong Beom-tae: We built the entire alley the same way. It’s not a temporary wall or temporary material, but a construction, and it’s a brick house, so it’s every brick. I tried to implement as much as possible, even cracking the cement in the yard.

Did you rebuild the houses in the alley for the filming?

―Vice President Jeong Beom-tae: I requested KEPCO to bring an old telephone pole and put it in place.

The telephone pole could have been done roughly… … .

Starting this year, I was sending my grandmother, who was the owner of a semi-basement house, an allowance of 3 million won every month.

I paid for the hospital bill last time, and I need pocket money to see my grandchildren.

“You are doing well.”

I put on the suit Jo Soo-ah picked out from the closet.

They cost more than 100,000 dollars each, so they were high-end clothes that were not often available.

After wearing it, I could definitely feel that the clothes were wings.

“I’m late. Go quickly.”

“okay. I will be back.”

There were fewer footsteps than going to work on Monday.

* * *

Papababat!

As soon as they got out of the Mercedes, the reporters’ cameras burst into flames.

“CEO, you can go this way.”

I walked the red carpet with Lee Jong-yeop while being guided by the host.

Security guards were deployed to keep reporters and spectators out.

Lee Jong-yeop waved his hand toward the camera and smiled.

“Hyung-nim, the passion for reporting is no joke. It seems that all Korean media have gathered.”

“I mean.”

I was used to dealing with the media now.

It’s awkward because it’s my movie premiere.

“Please look this way!”

The entrance procedure ended with a light look around at the photo line.

It wasn’t even to the point of putting on a blanket yet.

* * *

“Thank you for coming all the way here. I really did not expect the representative to attend the premiere.”

PD Seong Ho-jin, whom I have been close to for quite some time in the US. Now, as a director, he was welcoming guests.

“You worked hard to make the film. Let’s have fun.”

“Haha, I worked really hard on it.”

It would have been better if I hadn’t worked hard.

“CEO, you can come this way.”

Guided by Vice President Jeong Beom-tae, I entered the premiere hall 1, where film officials were gathered, and encountered actors, singers, and celebrities passing by the hallway.

“hello!”

“We are Aurora 8!”

“It is an honor to meet you, Mr. They are the shining Shine Girls!”

Boy groups and girl groups who do a folder bow of more than 90 degrees.

How hard did you live until you broke through the trainee competition and debuted?

“Thank you for coming on purpose.”

Everyone I met lightly bowed my head and entered the screening room.

“This is CEO Kim Shin.”

“You really came.”

Hall 1, the premiere hall where movie officials gather.

There were three empty rows in front and back of the best center seat.

so-called special treatment.

“You can sit over here. This is the most comfortable viewing angle, right in the center of the screen.”

I walked to my seat while being guided by Vice President Jung Beom-tae, and all the people who participated in the premiere were looking this way.

‘Wow, that’s no joke.’

I walked while receiving the hot eyes of the actresses.

The girl group is pretty, but it certainly didn’t compare to the actresses’ force seen under the lights of a movie theater.

The actresses who came completely dressed up showed off their beauty to the point of admiration.

“To those who make the film, thank you for coming here. This is Kim Shin.”

Before sitting down, let’s bow our heads and greet each other politely, the sound of applause.

Young film directors and production company representatives were clapping enthusiastically.

Fortunately, my image of the people involved in the movie is pretty good.

Because he was the one who gave rain to the film industry that was dried up in the Corona era.

Lee Jong-yeop, me, and the bodyguards sat in empty seats.

“The movie starts soon. It’s really well made.”

I listened to Vice President Jung Beom-tae and waited for the movie to start.

film my past

When I first heard about it, I imagined it to be a social network that won an award by making a movie about the founding of Facebook.

Dig!

The lights in the cinema went out.

‘It’s just starting.’

The film begins with the protagonist’s childhood.

A cute-looking boy wearing shabby clothes came out.

“Kim Shin. Let’s go on a trip with Dad.”

“Travel?”

“Yes, it is a trip that can make a lot of money. I’ll buy you a hot dog too.”

“really?”

A boy goes to Jeongseon Casino in Gangwon-do on a yellow bus from a kindergarten with his father.

While my father was at the casino, I waited on the bus or stood on the side of the road and watched people.

“Tsk tsk, are you with Dad?”

“yes.”

“Eat or buy.”

Guys passing by give me 1,000 won each saying they feel sorry for me.

There were scenes where creditors came to the house and the father ran away.

‘My past was like that.’

It was a real thing because my father was addicted to gambling, but there were many incidents that were difficult for ordinary people to understand.

“Dad, I need to buy a reference book, but please give me 5,000 won.”

“Shin-ah, Dad has 30,000 won in all of his property right now.”

“So what?”

“I will take this money in the evening and come back with a fivefold increase. Then I’ll give you a lot of pocket money as well as the money to buy reference books.”

Memories of my father came to mind when I saw him say that he was winning today even though he was losing money every day.

Except for gambling, he was a very good person, but in the end, he couldn’t stop gambling.

The movie started like that, and the main character spent his teenage years suffering.

I wonder if I interviewed my friends from middle school and high school, and I also recreated my school days.

If it’s just a bit different from the truth… … .

The main character studied very hard at school and was good at sports.

He was also popular with female students.

“God, I like you.”

“Jeong Yeon-ah.”

“yes.”

To a very pretty teenage actress, the male lead, who looked a lot like me in my teenage years, said.

“Do you know what a beautiful place the world is?”

“yes?”

“You are as pretty as the world. But I don’t have the money or time to like people. sorry.”

“… … .”

A male protagonist in a movie who talks nonsense and turns around coolly.

‘Is this a comic?’

A moment of confusion came.

‘During my school days, I was in trouble because I couldn’t live without it, but I also wanted to try dating.’

While in high school, the male lead worked part-time and studied finance to the point where his nose would bleed at home.

―You need to know money to make money.

-Money moves the world.

– It will never fail.

phrases on the wall.

I interviewed Seong Ho-jin, producer, who said he had a lot of interest in money since childhood.

In the movie, he was seen walking around Arkor.

I’m talking to my co-workers on the rooftop.

“It’s real estate! real estate! Seoul real estate never falls! Today is the cheapest!”

“Ugh, even if I only bought shares in Lee Sung Electronics 20 years ago.”

“I heard that 10 years ago, Mirai Heavy Industries was a real hit.”

“Arthur. Since then, future heavy industry has been walking in place.”

Whenever colleagues talked about financial technology, they strangely nodded or thought calmly.

“The flow of capital… … .”

I drink coffee in a paper cup in the middle of winter on the roof of my company.

A force that seems to be waiting for the right time to come while thinking about global finance.

‘I think I only thought about eating meat with a corporate card… … .’

I don’t have money, so what kind of investment do you worry about?

Drinking mixed coffee on the roof of the company building and looking at Seoul.

It was very beautiful to see the scenery of Seoul change in succession to spring, summer, autumn and winter.

It wasn’t a literal look like The Social Network, but a movie that lifted me up a lot.

Ellie, who works at JPMorgan, has risen to the ranks of star managers.

Her rate of return, which was negative after the corona, recovered remarkably in a year and a half.

[Return 280%]

On Wall Street, the man with the highest returns is king.

Ellie made a name for herself in the industry as a dedicated manager for Shin Kim and Investor A.

“Ellie, what do you think of the coal fund?”

“Recently, the real estate market in China is unusual. Do you know anything about bond issuance?”

Many colleagues asked her opinion.

Ellie wanted to make it on Wall Street.

It was not my greed to get a lot of incentives and climb to a high position while maintaining a moderately high rate of return for about 3 or 4 years.

‘I want to start a fund or investment company named after me.’

Four years on Wall Street.

Although she has lived through many things every day, she occasionally recalled memories with Kim Shin.

As a result of turning away from love with the thought of wanting to succeed, Kim Shin left her side.

If you abandoned love, at least you had to succeed.

‘A scenario in which you can respond to a bubble, inflation, or falling stock prices… … .’

At the request of Shin Kim, I have been constructing a portfolio according to various scenarios for more than six months.

She had a team of two subordinates.

“Marianne, Violet. Let the operation begin.”

“From now on?”

“yes.”

Ellie, the blonde beauty, took a hair tie from her desk drawer and tied her hair into a tight bun.

Together with two of my employees, I started pouring in orders through the company’s internal system.

Dow, NASDAQ, S&P 500.

Short selling and active buying of put options on various stocks.

“My God, what happened?”

As the order amount exceeded 23 billion dollars, general manager Choi Jae-bok came and asked.

Ellie responded without even looking at him.

“I am placing an order according to the customer’s request.”

“client?”

Excluding pension funds from JP Morgan, how many customers can transact over $23 billion a day?

But Ellie was in charge of private clients.

“Is this Kim Shin’s request?”

“I can’t tell you about the customer’s transaction history.”

Even without saying it, it was clear that something was happening.

In fact, Ellie didn’t even really try to hide it.

If it’s Kim Shin’s reputation, betting on a decline in itself will have a significant impact on the stock market.

At JP Morgan, the security was maintained as much as possible, but the size and nature of the deal became increasingly known on Wall Street.

Massive shorts and put options.

After such a bold portfolio, a huge amount was coming out of Ellie’s team.

“Sell your stock.”

“yes? why?”

“Kim Shin is moving.”

“Is that true?”

I was watching Kim Shin’s movements on Wall Street.
