Woosung asked Lee Sunghyun bluntly, "How can I trust you after that threat you just gave me?" Lee Sunghyun had difficulty controlling his anger, but as he looked into Woosung's eyes, Lee Sunghyun knew there was nothing he could do. 400 billion dollars in sales last year. 600 billion dollars expected this year. Woosung was the biggest businessman in the world. Compared to him, Lee Sunghyun was a nobody. Lee Sunghyun replied, "What can I do to gain your trust?" "You must have more information on Daeyang." "You mean…" "I want everything the government has on Daeyang. You know my goal is to destroy Daeyang completely." "If I give you everything, will you make my problems go away?" Woosung grinned. "Think about it. If a huge company like Daeyang gets exposed, will the media and the public even remember the current political scandal?" Lee Sunghyun's eyes widened. Woosung continued, "You bury a scandal with another scandal. It's a common technique in politics. As you said, I have the majority of this country's lawyers on my side. I can provide you with a few. The trial will end quickly and quietly as if nothing happened. People will focus on Daeyang. All of this can be accomplished if you give me what I want." Lee Sunghyun swallowed. It was an attractive offer. Lee Sunghyun asked, "Do you promise? If I bring you everything, you will make this go away?" When Woosung nodded, Lee Sunghyun sighed in relief. After Lee Sunghyun left, Woosung asked his lawyer, "How long do you think Choi Taemin will remain in prison with these proofs?" Attorney Go Gihoon. He used to be one of the main prosecutors in the government. "I think about 2 years." "On probation?" Go Gihoon nodded. Woosung wasn't satisfied. It wasn't enough. Go Gihoon continued, "At most, he would get 5 years, but he will be let go on probation soon after." "So we need much more." "If Lee Sunghyun provides something really good…" Woosung's eyes shined. Suk Jinmyung. Choi Gichul. If these two men brought him more proofs… Woosung replied, "I understand." When he was left alone, Woosung turned on his computer. "I got the price of bitcoin to reach 4301 dollars. Some companies are trying to accumulate them, but they can never compare to me. I will pump the price to its highest and sell everything. Then, I will launch Coconut Coin as an official cryptocurrency." Bitcoin's price would plummet. The key was to make sure Choi Gichul and Choi Taemin hold a significant number of bitcoins when it does. "I can't wait to see Choi Gichul's face when he loses everything." According to Jung Jinsup, Choi Gichul continued to buy bitcoins. Woosung looked at his watch. It was midnight, which meant it was around 2 pm in New York. As expected, Woosung's cellphone rang. It was JP's Jeremy. "Did you make a decision?" "How much did you spend on the lobbyists?" "Billions." "…" Woosung continued, "I'm not asking people to give up dollars. I am just planning to replace it." "Isn't that the same thing?' "Haha, giving up is different than replacing." "But with the new replacement, US will lose its control." Woosung laughed and replied, "I don't expect this project to succeed without America's cooperation. If you decide to side with me, I will try to make sure you retain your control and value." "Try?" "Haha. Alright. I will make sure no other country will be above you." However, Woosung will still be on the top. Jeremy asked, "What will happen if JP refuses? What if the US government and banks refuse as well?" Woosung replied calmly, "The US government has already partially accepted my project. In addition, many of the old and new companies in Silicone Valley are already using this currency. Will America give up on all these companies?" Woosung laughed and continued, "I am the one who saved Silicone Valley after the financial crisis. I was the one who invested over 10 billion dollars on the manufacturing factories in Silicone Valley. I also own the most shares of the start-up companies there." Jeremy remained silent. Woosung continued, "And it is also me who can move all these from Silicone Valley to Israel. Do you know how will this affect the US? I think you do. Also, do you know who the biggest trader in Nasdaq is?" Jeremy didn't say anything. He knew now. He also realized that Woosung owned Right Capital too. Woosung added, "I own a huge part of the American economy. If I take all of it and move to somewhere else, JP will be damaged big time. You know all this already. Isn't that why you called me?" After a long pause, Jeremy finally answered, "I want to talk to you about some details." *** Daeyang hospital. Chairman Choi Gunwon and Choi Gitae were both in a coma. Choi Gichul visited them. Looking at his father, Choi Gichul murmured, "Did you really not expect something like this to happen?" Beep. Beep. Hook up to various machines, Choi Gunwon remained still. Choi Gichul bit his lips. "You are the one who made us the way we are. Why did you do it?" Again, Choi Gichul got no answer. He continued quietly, "I plan to go a different way now. I won't follow your path anymore. Even if it means I destroy everything you built." Choi Gichul glared at his father with resentment. Beep. Beep. The machines continued to beep regularly. Choi Gichul moved to the next room where Choi Gitae was in a similar state. Choi Gichul murmured, "Crazy idiot." Looking at his helpless brother, Choi Gichul didn't feel sympathetic. He just felt relieved that he was free from his abusive brother. Choi Gichul continued to murmur, "Someone like you should have died." Choi Gichul remembered being beaten up by Choi Gitae as a child. He used to pray for Choi Gitae's death. His wish was finally about to come true. "I will take everything you have." Beep. Beep. Choi Gichul walked out of the room.
