Closed Beta I Played Alone

Apocrypha 29. Hong Jooyoung (28).

The Office of the Prime Minister of Japan.

While silently watching the Japanese fleet smashed and shattered and eventually sunk into the dark sea, Prime Minister Abezo's loud shout was heard.

“Myungjindo! Japan helped Myeongjin grow this much too! Do you think Myeongjin is different?”

If it's nonsense, it's nonsense.

But knowing what that meant, he opened his mouth quietly.

"know. So what?"

In other words, 35 years of Japanese colonial rule.

Shortly thereafter, the Korean War broke out.

In other words, the Korean Peninsula was literally devastated by a series of national tragedies.

It was a bleak situation with no future in sight.

Of course, at the time, Japan received some compensation for damages, but it was not enough.

The economy is also an economy, but the foundation of the country has completely collapsed, and a huge amount of money was needed just to rebuild the foundation of the collapsed country.

I couldn't give up on the economy either.

But there is no money.

Of course, I couldn't just print the bills.

That would have caused extreme inflation, and it was a shortcut to economic collapse in the end.

So at that time the government gave preferential treatment to some companies.

That is, it made it possible to import loans from foreign countries.

In other words, it made it possible to borrow money abroad.

You need money to build factories, make products, and hire employees to make those products.

About 5% to 10% of the loan.

It seems like it is now, but what a great privilege this was. At that time, the interest on loans from banks was basically over 40% per annum.

But it didn't matter.

Even if the interest rate exceeds 40%, there are far more people who want to borrow the money than the money the bank has.

In other words, even if you borrow money from a foreign country at 5% to 10% and keep it in the bank, it was possible to earn close to 40% of profits per year.

Of course, none of the companies that were favored by the government did such stupid things.

It was a time when people bought land and built buildings and factories and made more than just printing products instead of leaving it to the bank.

In other words, most of the companies that can be called large corporations have grown up with such privileges.

It was because the starting line itself was inevitably different from the place where the money was spent in the 5% range and the place where the money was spent in the 40% range, which is not even that much, through fierce competition.

Clearly, Myeongjin, one of the five major groups such as Daesung, Gusan, and Daeyu, was also among the companies that benefited from that preference.

And most of that loan came from Japan.

Although independence was achieved, the 35-year period of Japanese colonial rule left many unfavorable lines and lines on the Korean Peninsula even after independence.

Anyway, that's what Prime Minister Abezo was talking about.

It is said that Myeongjin is a place that can never escape from that yoke.

But that didn't make me stop here.

If I have to feel sorry, I am sorry for having played a social role in Korea as much as Myeongjin has become a large corporation like other large corporations through unfair competition from the beginning.

That was all.

After all, Japan did not give money for free, nor did it lend it.

Afterwards, I paid it all back.

First of all, in the meantime.

Woo Ji-Jik. Woo Ji-Jik.

puck! puck! bang! bang!

The Japanese fleet on a screen in one side of the prime minister's office was crushed and sank by chunks of ice that were too large to be seen as hail from the sky.Naturally, many professional soldiers belonging to the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force, not even professional civil servants, were drowning in the cold sea.

And then.

dump.

“Japan will surrender unconditionally. At the same time as giving up all rights to block 7, I will not claim any rights to block 7 in the future.”

Shortly before, Prime Minister Abezo had mentioned surrender.

But back then, it was still half talk.

The momentum seemed to be the same.

But now it has been changed to respect.

Her straight knees and head were completely bent.

He looked towards the screen rather than answering the question.

About 30% of the fleet has disappeared into the sea.

In addition to that, about 20% of the situation was a half-wave.

Almost 50% damage.

Moreover, even if the sunken battleships are pulled out, recycling will not be possible.

Literally turned into rags.

Even if the broken and halved things were repaired, it would require a huge amount of money and time.

In other words, it had to be a huge amount of damage.

"Hmm..."

suffocation that comes out of nowhere.

That much, despite my warnings, watching Prime Minister Abezo, who endured until the last maginot line as if he was watching a liver, gave me some trouble.

How far do I really want to go?

Because if the typhoon I created passed through the waters of Tokyo and eventually landed in Tokyo, it was clear that such a disaster that I had never seen or experienced before would come.

Considering that Tokyo is the capital of Japan, it was clear that the number of people who died as a result would exceed millions.

Of course, I didn't want that to happen either.

It was clear that he did not have good feelings for Japan, but that does not mean that he would plunge Japan into a pit of destruction.

Moreover, if Tokyo is in ruins, Japan will not even dream of rebuilding it.

Not only will I run out of time and money, but if Tokyo is a ruined place, my will to stand up again will be shattered.

If that happens, Prime Minister Abezo will make the worst choice.

It's a choice between you and me.

Of course, that didn't matter.

In the end, it will be Japan who will die.

‘But… you don’t have to do that. After all, this time’s goal was also one of the 7 blocks.’

I have no intention of becoming the ruler of the earth.

Not directly, but indirectly, because I once played the role of a ruler in a world where ‘Revival Legend’ became a reality.

There was no such thing as greater satisfaction than I expected.

'okay. You don't have to go to extremes.

First of all, I organized my thoughts that way.

So, in a situation where everyone's eyes were on me, I raised my right hand and bumped my thumb and index finger at the same time.

right!

not loud.

No, it's definitely a small sound.

However, the small sound engulfed the prime minister's office, which had quite a few people, and the change took place on the screen.

Whew!

A typhoon that had just poured huge ice as well as a huge gust of wind.

Of course, it was still accompanied by a huge gust of wind.

However, the huge ice that had inflicted direct damage on the Japanese fleet until just before disappeared as if it were an illusion.

With that alone, the Japanese fleet was no longer dragged into the cold sea.

First of all, he made the situation like that, turned his gaze to Prime Minister Abezo, and spoke softly.

“I hope that surrender is sincere. this is real If it's not sincere, and because of that, I'm going to do some stupid tricks in the future... because it will be the last day of the nation of Japan."

If you are not going to put an end to Japan, including Prime Minister Abezo, it is better to stop here.

To be honest, it's not that I didn't understand Japan's actions toward Block 7.

In other words, the country would certainly have acted the same.

After a few years, the agreement for the joint development of Block 7 with the Republic of Korea is over, and if that happens, the constitution of the sea, the [United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea], can legally occupy most of Block 7.

It is not just a block like that, but block 7, where oil and natural gas equivalent to Saudi Arabia are sleeping.

Anyway, in my words.

"of course! This is sincere. Sincerity!"

Prime Minister Abezo spoke directly in the same way as he was lying on his face, whether it was necessary to properly show what it was like to lie flat.

That's why it seemed like he'd accept it even if we talked about something else here.

For example, the Dokdo issue, the comfort women issue, plus an apology for the Japanese colonial period.

but didn't take it out.

'Cause now you know

That such provocations will no longer work in Korea.

In other words, in the not-too-distant future, those problems will naturally be resolved through Japan's apology and compensation.

First of all, Abezo opened his mouth softly at those words.

"okay. let's not watch Then sooner or later someone will go. It's just my role so far. And the typhoon will... move to the side of Japan and disappear.”

With those words, he exited the Prime Minister's Office using the blink of a zero cooldown.

'Cause I really don't have anything else to do.

***

Korea at that time.

The National Intelligence Service headquarters in Naegok-dong, Seocho-gu, Seoul.

“……”

“……”

“……”

The position of making a proposal for Block 7 directly to Hong Jooyoung.

That is why the NIS kept an eye on Hong Jooyoung.

And when I realized the power of the enormous typhoon created by Hong Jooyoung today, I had no choice but to open my mouth and watch the screen.

Then the head of the National Intelligence Service spoke softly.

“Isn’t it just about dealing with ice? What is the typhoon with that huge gust? What's more, the fact that more than a few trillion battleships are so helpless... I can't say anything about this. something to say."

Of course, no one answered the question of the head of the NIS.

Even Deputy Manager Han So-jeong, who has been in contact with Hong Jooyoung in her own way.

The typhoon accompanied by the gust of wind and the power of the ice in the typhoon were also out of the predicted range.

And then.

tiling. tiling.

A cell phone rang in the silence of the NIS meeting room.

In the first place, a situation where reprimand would burst out.

Especially since it was a very important meeting.

However, even the head of the National Intelligence Service could not rebuke because the epicenter of the ringing of the cell phone was Deputy Chief Han So-jeong.

Because the person who is currently in direct contact with Hong Jooyoung was Deputy Manager Han So-jeong.And when Deputy Director Han So-jeong looked at the phone screen and nodded slightly, some of the deputy managers even covered their mouths.

First of all, Deputy Director Han So-jeong answered the phone on the spot.

Just call Hong Jooyoung.

[I have received a promise from Prime Minister Abezo to completely renounce the 7 block. We are in a situation where we only need to send someone to sign a new contract.]

"Thank you. We will finish it on our side.”

[great. Then the promise is... haven't you forgotten?]

"of course."

Deputy General Manager Han So-jeong gave such an answer and swallowed the words, 'You showed me such power to destroy a nation, but I can't say a word.'

There's no need to get it out of your mouth.

After finishing the phone call with Hong Jooyoung, Deputy Director Han So-jeong looked straight at the Director of the National Intelligence Service.

Of course, the head of the National Intelligence Service also had an ear, so he checked the contents of the call, so he opened his mouth quickly.

“Let me go to the Blue House tomorrow. Maybe someone from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will come out. Well... yes. Not Deputy Chief Han So-jeong, but So-jeong Han, the 3rd Director, let them move together.”

Anyway, Deputy Manager Han So-jeong led the negotiations with Hong Jooyoung and built a direct relationship with him.

Therefore, the Director of the National Intelligence Service mentioned at this meeting the promotion of Deputy Director Han So-jeong to the third bureau chief.

Naturally, the first and second bureau chiefs, as well as several deputy chiefs, did not object.

For that reason, the power Hong Jooyoung showed against Japan this time was good.

First of all, the meeting of the NIS ended like that.

***

a few days later.

Every news and newspaper headline mentions one thing.

Right in block 7.

[Return to the arms of Korea in Block 7!]

[Return of Block 7 from Japan?]

[How did Block 7 return to Korea?]

[Who was the main character that led to Japan's abandonment?]

And below that, content related to the potential value of Block 7 continued.

There was also a lot of content about a pink future that Korea has finally laid the groundwork for becoming an oil-producing country.

However, the statement that actually drew attention was revealed at a presidential meeting a few days later.

“Dear citizens. I feel great joy myself to be standing here for a very good cause. As such, the government has made continuous efforts to regain ownership of Block 7, and the efforts have finally paid off. Of course, it was not possible only with the power of the government.

all. Although I received help from various classes, it was ultimately possible because of the aspirations of the people. First of all, I will start an investigation into Block 7 from tomorrow under the Presidential Special Act. And the leader in the investigation will be Myungjin Group. Block 7 for the first time about 40 years ago

When the investigation began, Myungjin was the first company to participate in the investigation at its own expense. At the same time, Myeongjin was a great help in getting the 7 block back. Once again, I would like to express my gratitude to Myeongjin, who, as a member of the Korean people, has put a lot of effort into the restoration of Block 7.”

After that, the president's words continued, but everyone's interest went to one place.

Myungjin Group.

The president enacted the Presidential Special Act and started the development of Block 7 right away, and Myeongjin was chosen as the leader.

Moreover, Myungjin owns an oil refinery.

After mentioning Myungjin so many times like that, do you really exclude Myungjin from extracting crude oil?

First of all, is the research on Block 7 guaranteed by the Presidential Special Act?

The likelihood of that happening was close to zero.

therefore.

“Myungjin! Buy the stocks related to Myungjin right now!”

“The upper limit of Myungjin essential oil is not over yet! This is the beginning!”

“Myungjin Jungyu! Myeongjin Construction! Myungjin Electronics! You have to buy things that go into Myeongjin, such as Myeongjin products!”

The Myungjin craze that had blown once again when Myungjin imported crude oil from ExxonMobil and Chevren of the United States struck again.
