Keeping promises through text conversation

Earth Resource employees were curious about Shin Kim.

‘What kind of person is our representative?’

Big companies run by systems.

Employees acted like parts, driving the effectiveness of the organization as a whole.

Unlike well-established companies, startup founders played a significant role in Silicon Valley.

Famous founders, founders with technological prowess, founders with extensive personal connections, etc.

The propensity of those who started a business was diverse, and the identity of the entire company changed depending on the will of the CEO.

The extent to which the ability of employees is raised is also the ability of the CEO.

‘I got a job because I was curious about the Source Coin business, but is this the right place to pursue my dream?’

‘The salary is decent, and the benefits are frankly not good. I like PC rooms, though.’

Earth Resources is a Silicon Valley startup, and it wasn’t very large.

After working at the company, Earth Resources was growing in a matter of days.

I felt the fun of advancing into a new field and continuing the challenge.

“Isn’t our company a bit strange?”

“yes. He is active in entering the business and is very popular in Korea. Who knew there would be so many miners.”

“I think he benefits from being a celebrity in Korea.”

“Are you such a great celebrity that there is a separate YouTube filming team?”

“Maybe he was an actor or a K-pop singer.”

The staff had a light conversation while drinking coffee.

As the size of the company grew and business fields diversified, there were many employees who did not know about the CEO.

Programmers were busy optimizing Source Coin while adding features.

Then, on the intranet of the company, Shin Kim was seen talking about Source Coin at a meeting.

“What? He is a person who draws the big picture rather than greed for money.”

“Anyone with a dream?”

“I didn’t know how to use the word ecosystem. It’s a very meaningful word. Now, it seems to be promoting the advantages of Source Coin in various fields while promoting the platform business.”

“If Source Coin really forms an ecosystem, the effect will definitely be great.”

“It must be difficult to guess.”

This is the story of the general staff so far.

Programmers also had their own feelings.

“Even when the CEO was just starting his business, he quietly watched the program development. It means that you had such a big meaning deep inside.”

“To build an ecosystem with coins, they have to be useful, and people who want them have to be able to get them. Looking back, our company went through those steps from the first step. And that’s while recording a quick profit.”

“It must have been all in the CEO’s head.”

“Our company name is Earth Resources. earth resources. Aren’t you going to distribute all resources through Source Coin?”

“There really is a point.”

“There are no startups in Silicon Valley that grow this fast.”

“There was a reason the CEO had so much money.”

Employees could find it enjoyable to attend Earth Resources.

Earth Resources is a new company, so it doesn’t have a representative office, so I put my desk in a spacious office.

I can hear the compliments from the staff.

‘I didn’t expect this to happen.’

When I was in elementary school, it was rare to receive a teacher’s praise.

Is your lack of self-esteem filled later?

Ahn Won-jae, the producer of Team B from Korea, said.

“I have finished editing the video I took during the meeting and it is ready to be uploaded to YouTube.”

“Already?”

“yes. Lately, I’ve been working at the company, so I didn’t have a video to save, but this is fun again.”

“… … .”

The video will be uploaded to YouTube.

It was embarrassing, but I couldn’t tell him to erase it.

An opportunity to publicize the identity of Source Coin and publicize how the shopping mall will be reorganized for free.

After starting the business, I had the thought that I should always do my best.

Its staff was approaching 200, and additional hires were being made as the business expanded.

As the number of employees working in the company increased, the responsibility for him also increased.

“Your popularity is hot in Korea.”

“… … .”

“Perhaps because of YouTube, offers come from various broadcasts, regardless of news or entertainment. Do you have any plans to appear in such a place?”

“Absolutely not.”

Shin Kim’s meeting room video.

As soon as the 8th episode was uploaded on YouTube, the comments were hot.

―Source Coin is the future… … .

―Establishment of an ecosystem If successful, will it eat up the coin market?

―You have a great mindset as the CEO of a startup. Not being greedy for money… … Probably because he’s already rich!

―The dream is big, but it is impossible to create an ecosystem. It is a coin that can be issued unlimitedly by the company, so you can eat and bounce.

―The same goes for coins with a fixed issue volume. Isn’t this better than a structure where only the initial miners benefit?

―Kim Shin is already too rich. doesn’t seem to pop out.

―Does the price of Source Coin drop if the shopping mall distributes it in the form of mileage? I don’t know how many times more will be released in the future.

―Now that it’s over $6, you think you’ll keep $3? maybe it will explode

-That’s right. The coin goes the opposite of what was originally expected. loose a lot? People can save a lot. It is not that the price is falling, but it is expected to increase as the transaction increases.

―Know the kids who are waiting for the source coin price to drop. Source Coin maintains the $6 level because there is no trading volume itself. I can’t even buy it.

―The company says they change it for $1, so it’s $6. If there were no restrictions at all, it would have been over $20 by now.

―I should increase the card limit first.

-why?

―If you reorganize the shopping mall, you should do it right away. If the payment rate falls later, it is a dog loss.

―This is correct. Let’s go up to the card limit of 5,000.

―You have to get a negative account first.

―Gazuaaa!!!

Lee Jong-yeop came.

He was the first subordinate, and he was the one who taught me how to work at Arcor.

“older brother!”

Lee Jong-yeop came straight to the office in a nice suit.

“I had a hard time coming.”

“No, brother. There are many things I lack, but thank you for inviting me. Whatever you ask me to do, I will do my best.”

I fully understood that Lee Jong-yeop had no skills or experience.

If you think about it, the same goes for me.

Who knew that even just two or three months ago, you would be running a business in Silicon Valley?

Human work is unknown.

As Lee Jong-yeop was a subordinate he treasured, he thought of giving him a chance.

“This is Lee Jong-yeop, who worked with me from Korea.”

“hello. This is Lee Jong-yeop! I wish you well.”

I went around the company and had Lee Jong-yeop say hello to the employees.

The subjects were employees of service or business teams.

Lee Jong-yeop greets the staff with a smile in his unique friendly attitude.

“Please take care of me.”

“yes. We will see you often in the future.”

I exchanged greetings with the staff at the seat, but did not go into the development department.

“Programmers are busy, so it’s hard to say hello. Eddie, the head of the department, will greet you separately.”

“yes. I am not interested in that field.”

After looking around the company for a while, when it was time to leave, I brought Lee Jong-yeop home.

A three-room apartment.

In the meantime, there was no inconvenience to stay with Oh Myeong-woo, but I decided to live with Lee Jong-yeop, who had nowhere to go for the time being.

‘I’ll have to find a bigger, better house soon.’

Life in San Francisco was getting longer.

After starting the earth resource business, I was busy and didn’t think of looking for another house.

I met employees and people while running a business, but it was a waste of time to leisurely go around looking for a house.

‘I’ll have to leave it to Jong-yeop to find a decent house.’

We talked as we rode the elevator up to the 11th floor.

“There are three rooms in the apartment. You can use one of them, and the kitchen… … .”

“I know.”

“know?”

“Because I’m a YouTube subscriber.”

“… … .”

Did you feel like losing your privacy because of YouTube?

I lightly joked with Lee Jong-yeop, whom I hadn’t seen in a while.

“Did you set up subscriptions, likes, and notifications?”

“Absolutely! I told my niece in elementary school to do it too.”

“… … .”

How many elementary school students will there be among more than 3 million subscribers?

Oh Myeong-woo came home first, but he was immersed in computer games.

I go to work at dawn, do company work, and leave early.

Game of the year.

It is said that it is to see the ending of GOTY-winning games once again, and to evaluate the recent trends and overall game companies’ skills.

These days, while expanding their feet to indie games, they were frantic to find good game developers.

“This is Jong-yeop. My decision in Korea in the past… … I saw you at the wedding, right?”

“yes. Nice to see you in America. how have you been doing?”

“I am Lee Jong-yeop. I will take you as my older brother.”

I always thought the two would get along well.

It was rare to see someone Lee Jong-yeop didn’t fit into while working at a company.

While I was close with the doctors as well as the company people.

Sometimes I got into trouble with the nurses because I got too close with them.

“Jong-yeop. Are you tired?”

“It’s okay to come and get some rest.”

“Then, since I haven’t seen your face in a while, let’s have a beer.”

“Yes. older brother.”

Beer at a nearby hamburger shop.

When I met Lee Jong-yeop, I felt like I was resting comfortably because the filming team didn’t follow me.

The bodyguards were working nearby, looking around.

“How about Arcor?”

“It is always the same. As I said over the phone, I am free because of the corona.”

“right.”

Meeting Lee Jong-yeop after a long time reminded me of Jo Soo-ah, who would be attending Arkor.

While eating hamburgers and drinking beer, he texted Jo Soo-ah.

-Kim Shin: What are you doing?

―Joshua: It’s been a while. I am working on a computer.

She had something to apologize for.

I made a promise, but I couldn’t keep it.

―Kim Shin: I decided to set aside time to watch it once a month, but I’m sorry.

―Jo Soo-ah: You were busy with work. I’m watching you on YouTube working hard at work.

―Kim Shin: I see.

Everyone around me knows my news through YouTube.

I wondered if Han Chae-won was also a subscriber to my YouTube channel.

If there is someone who writes vicious malicious comments, we can be suspicious of them.

I didn’t know if there would be a call from her in the cell phone blocked message, but I didn’t want to check it.

After two years of traveling and doing business in the US, marriage seemed like a long time ago.

―Kim Shin: Jong-yeop is by my side now after he came to America.

―Joshua: We met before leaving.

-Kim Shin: Did you?

―Jo Soo-ah: I was very happy to leave the company. After Jong-yeop quit, I got a lot of calls from nurses.

―Kim Shin: Because he is a popular guy.

―Jo Soo-ah: My older brother was more popular.

I paused.

I often heard Jo Soo-ah call me company senior and assistant manager Kim, but I still couldn’t adapt well when I called her brother.

―Kim Shin: How are your parents?

―Joshua: Yes. The two of you are living happily every day. These days, fishing has become a hobby.

―Kim Shin: Fishing… … .

―Jo Soo-ah: My director likes it.

Je Myeong-won, director.

A fishing fanatic to the extent that if he is not at the hospital, he will have to find it on the seashore rocks.

―Sua Jo: There are so many doctors who talk about you.

―Kim Shin: What do you usually say?

―Jo Soo-ah: I’m envious. They graduated from medical school and got a professional job at the age of 35, but my brother is already rich and envies me.

I did chat with Jo Soo-ah from time to time in the US, but I was busy with work so I couldn’t even talk for a long time.

―Kim Shin: But is this kind of text communication counted as once a month?

―Josua: If we talk a little more.

It felt like going on a date while texting at a hamburger shop.
