not on my side

As bitcoin skyrocketed, my father’s words came to mind.

“God. the money is It’s not about collecting. life is a room One room!”

My father gambled so hard that in the end he couldn’t hit a shot in his life.

One room and another room.

I remembered the image of my father, who had gone to the gambling house hoping for one shot countless times and returned home with his shoulders drooping in a sense of self-doubt.

‘I used to resent my father when I was young.’

Through middle school, high school, and college, I hated my father every day.

‘If it wasn’t for gambling… … He was kind and caring.’

I thought it was right to work part-time, work hard, be sincere, and earn money steadily.

As far as I’m thinking right now… … Life is one hit.

Bitcoin left by my father. And now is the result of several successful investments.

There was a limit to the amount of money that could be earned through steady labor.

Living a life while working diligently is personally rewarding and fulfilling, but I needed a shot to change my life.

‘My father said… … That’s right. Most of the time, I end up getting beaten up trying to get a shot.’

There were more and more articles about coins in the community of Seohak ants.

―I heard rumors that virtual currency is bull market.

―Coin plate What is this? Why is it suddenly on fire?

―Will season 2 be held?

―The beat is finally rising.

―It’s running. It’s been a while.

―Is this the right time to buy?

As Bitcoin recovers $13,000, people are very interested.

The fear caused by corona felt like it was rapidly fading as the vaccine was released.

‘Bitcoin… … .’

Investors were winning big in stocks and real estate.

And the flames spread to virtual currency.

‘Virtual currency will be on fire, or completely turned off, one of the two.’

As the United States and European countries conducted vaccination, media interest in me decreased.

In the meantime, it was difficult to speak carelessly in front of reporters.

‘With just one word, broadcasters around the world broadcast it as main news.’

Circumstances are different for each country, and the reporters’ questions were not appropriate.

“Where do you think is responsible for the spread of corona in the UK?”

“While quarantine measures in Asian countries are effective, there are many opinions that ignore individual freedoms and rights. Please tell me something about this.”

“How high should the vaccination rate be to be relieved from corona?”

“Do you think US President Trump’s response to COVID-19 was effective?”

It was a question from reporters that I heard when I came home.

“CEO Shin Kim! Please tell me your honest opinion.”

“It is said that Biolife’s K-vaccine is superior to Pfizer or Moderna, but why didn’t the mRNA method be adopted? Is it for safety?”

The video could spread all over the world by simply answering any question.

It could have embarrassed the governments of those countries, so they chose to avoid reporters as much as possible.

Large-scale inoculations were carried out and media interest decreased, and external activities resumed.

“How are the preparations for the Earth Channel?”

“Hardware-wise, it’s perfect.”

I went to work at Earth Resource after a long time and had a conversation with Eddie.

When I first saw him, Eddy, who was skinny, had grown plump like Myung-Woo Oh in a few months.

“You mean the content is the problem.”

“Yes. I don’t know if the Korean content prepared by hyung will work well. I like it, but in public.”

“It doesn’t.”

Korean contents were still in the minority in the global market.

Movies often win awards abroad, but international ticket power cannot be said to be great.

Although dramas and entertainment work well only in Asia, it was difficult to sympathize emotionally in the United States or Europe.

“I don’t think personal broadcasting is going to be easy. Because YouTube is so strong.”

“It is.”

YouTube, TikTok, Instagram.

After jumping into this market, I can say that I feel how great the stronghold of the existing strong players is.

‘It’s not easy as a latecomer to anything.’

Oh Myung-woo immediately gave an answer to this.

“We have no choice but to play with money.”

“yes?”

“It is to hold the world’s largest game competition to attract users’ attention. And breaking down the walls between countries.”

“A wall between countries?”

“yes. Even on YouTube, the content in the US and Korea is completely different. There are also emotional differences, but first of all, it is difficult to understand the language.”

“It doesn’t.”

“Why don’t we install a service that perfectly translates languages?”

In Earth Channel, the idea is to put a system that automatically translates all languages between countries.

Even if you can’t change the emotional difference according to culture, you said that you should overcome the barriers created by language.

“In real time during the broadcast?”

“yes. If not, it doesn’t make any sense.”

“It could be applied not only to broadcasting, but also to games.”

“Sure.”

“Is real-time translation technically possible?”

“We need to find out about that now.”

If only the translation function could be applied, there was no need to hesitate to introduce it.

It takes a lot of time to develop it yourself.

Myung-Woo Oh and I looked at artificial intelligence translation companies in Silicon Valley and decided to acquire them on the spot.

The developer-turned-founder was the CEO.

“We don’t have sales yet, but we don’t want to be taken over by another company.”

“We intend to fully guarantee independent management rights.”

“So you’re saying that not much has changed from now?”

“There are things that change. We will give you a chance to be active in the earth channel. And for the improvement of artificial intelligence, earth resources actively push it.”

Computational power overwhelmingly surpassing supercomputers through source coin.

Acquired a company called Art Language, and launched a large-scale financial support.

In the meantime, a call came from Korea.

―Vice President Jeong Beom-tae: One drama has been completed. This is the drama you attended last time.

―Kim Shin: Really?

To think that a drama filmed in Korea a few months ago was successfully completed.

I don’t have high expectations for a box office success, but I still hoped it would be fun.

―Vice President Jeong Beom-tae: If you want to see it, I will send you the first edited version.

-Kim Shin: Really?

Octopus game.

I was curious about the form of a drama with an unfamiliar name.

When I went to the mansion, I had nothing to do.

―Kim Shin: I want to watch it with my friends at home, but will the director allow it?

―Vice President Jeong Beom-tae: Since the CEO is the general manager of Dream Art Rainbow, it shouldn’t be a problem even if you look at it.

-Kim Shin: But I didn’t participate in the production, and I’m not in Korea. It would be better to ask the director for his opinion in advance.

―Vice President Jeong Beom-tae: Then, let’s check.

Maybe it’s because it’s Vice President Jung Beom-tae, who has respect for his boss at work.

It’s good to trust and entrust it, but I’m a little worried.

The answer came after 10 minutes.

―Vice President Jeong Beom-tae: The director gave permission. Even if you watch it with your friends, it doesn’t matter if you are careful not to leak it outside.

-Kim Shin: Yes. Then we’ll have fun.

Oh Myeong-woo, Lee Jong-yeop, Jin Yu-kyung, and Yang Hye-rin.

I decided to watch a drama with the people in the mansion.

It was late at night, so Jin Yu-gyeong attended in pajamas.

“This is the content to be released on Earth Channel?”

“Yes.”

“I look forward to it very much.”

Watched on Lee Sung Electronics’ 86-inch TV.

There is nothing as satisfying as spending money on home appliances.

‘Would it be fun?’

The first episode of the octopus game started, and I watched it blankly.

The main character who fell into gambling was a character whose father came to mind.

The gripping story leads to a survival game with comical elements, and I watched up to episode 3 at once.

“This is super fun.”

“Until now, it felt more like a movie than a drama made in Korea. How great?”

“fun.”

Oh Myung-woo, Lee Jong-yeop, and Yang Hye-rin expressed great satisfaction.

Jin Yoo-gyeong was watching the drama and fell asleep before she knew it.

‘Wasn’t chaebol fun to watch?’

People’s reactions were also good, but more than anything, I had fun.

The feeling of being sucked into the suction power of the work, perhaps because of personal experience.

With each game, the moments where life and death were decided came, and I couldn’t let go of the next story.

“I think I’ll have to watch this all night.”

“older brother. I am hungry.”

“I’ll bring you ramen.”

I cooked ramen myself, ate it together, and watched the last episode at once.

‘I must have underestimated Korean contents too much.’

Regulations of broadcasting stations, insufficient production cost, and stereotyped storytelling.

I was able to create interesting contents that were free from various restrictions.

9 o’clock in the morning.

I couldn’t sleep, so I was tired, but my mind was clear.

The excitement did not subside while watching interesting content for the first time in a while.

* * *

Jin Yoo-kyung felt an iron wall from Kim Shin.

There are times when we eat together, take a walk, or help with work, but it feels like it’s hard to get closer than a certain point.

“Why. Don’t you know too much about my charms?”

Until now, everyone has been lost in themselves.

He comes from one of the best families in Korea.

“Well. Does that person have more money?”

In terms of appearance, he is the highest level among ordinary people who are not at the level of celebrities.

“That person might be able to meet celebrities.”

In terms of intelligence, I was confident that I would not be inferior to anyone.

He was an elite graduate who graduated from a prestigious university in the United States.

Even though he himself is stupid and sometimes immature, I wondered if even that could be his charm.

“It’s because my brother is a person with many scars.”

Lee Jong-yeop.

While at the mansion, it was a great harvest to become close with the secretary, whom he spent a lot of time with, even though he was Kim Shin’s subordinate.

“Are you hurt?”

“yes. What… … , Of course you know that you are divorced.”

“I know.”

“Han Chae-won is an amazing bitch… … , hmmm. Anyway. It’s because my older brother’s family life isn’t typical. Since I was young, I have lived without receiving love from my parents. He smiled at me and told me while we were getting married.”

“What do you mean?”

“I have a side of me that I can be with for the rest of my life.”

“ah.”

Jin Yoo-gyeong exclaimed.

It was the appearance of Kim Shin in the days he did not know.

After spending a poor and unhappy childhood, Kim Shin worked hard to earn money and attended Arcor.

It reminded me of how he was waiting for the wedding with great anticipation.

“For my brother, the marriage that started that way was the worst. In a difficult world, I managed to overcome it somehow, but the person I thought would be on my side was actually my biggest enemy.”

“Is your marriage that bad?”

“Because Han Chae-won is so nasty. Anyway, after the divorce, I felt much more at ease.”

Jin Yoo-kyung remembered Han Chae-won’s name.

I knew I was getting divorced and didn’t pay attention on purpose, but I felt like I should be aware of it.

“Aren’t all people the same? Even if you’re a cool, well-known guy, he’s either lonely or has a lot of scars on the inside.”

“okay?”

“Because wounds in the heart don’t heal easily. Personally, I think a warm person who can cover up such scars suits him better.”
