Peninsula 2017: Is the system living in the past?

Chapter 90 A Gentle Embrace (Please Subscribe)

"You live here?"

Yongsan-gu, Itaewon-dong.

Park Hyo-min peered out the car window a few times, then turned back and asked a question.

She never thought of that.

Jiang Xingchen actually lives in a rooftop apartment here.

"Shall I take you up for a tour?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xingchen smiled and pointed to a small house on a high place, where the lights were off.

Although I plan to move to a more comfortable place once I have some money.

But in reality, he was quite satisfied with the rooftop apartment.

Unlike other rooftop apartments.

Hot in summer and cold in winter.

When the north wind blows, you can hear the wind in the room.

So, when Park Hyo-min asked a question, he smiled and extended an invitation.

However, he only mentioned it briefly.

I didn't really want her to go upstairs.

After all, she had probably never had a similar experience in such a place before.

Never thought.

The voice just fell.

I heard a "good" from the side of my ear.

He mistakenly thought he heard a split.

This time, it was him who was puzzled and surprised.

But then Park Hyomin reached behind her and grabbed a hat from the back row, putting it on.

The □ mask was also put on.

He looked over.

He said it naturally.

"I'll just go up and take a look, then I'll leave."

"After all, they are future partners, so it's perfectly reasonable for them to check out the accommodations."

"If it's too bad, I can lend you some money so you can rent a new place and pay me back slowly later."

Well...

Something seems off.

[Actually, the system gives out all sorts of useless rewards...]

[Is it just to trigger the passive ability that allows me to easily live off T-ara's resources?]

[So, is Ham Eun-jung next?]

Jiang Xingchen frowned slightly.

I just feel that this logic seems to make some sense.

next second.

A hand waved in front of my eyes.

His unfocused gaze instantly sharpened.

Park Hyomin squinted, her face full of uncertainty, and asked, "What, is it chaotic upstairs?"

"No, I just never thought you would actually agree."

Jiang Xingchen put on a smile, then pushed open the car door and got out. "If you really want to go up and take a look, then come on up."

"By the way, I'll take you down later, so don't be afraid."

As he spoke, he went around to the driver's side, opened the car door for him, and even carefully raised his hand to block it.

Park Hyo-min got off the bus.

I didn't take my bag, only my phone.

After locking the car, he followed Jiang Xingchen up the stairs.

Ding ding ding...

The sound of the steel plate staircase echoed in the quiet night.

A short while later, she entered Jiang Xingchen's home in Seoul.

Look around.

Not big.

But it's not much different from what I just said.

It's not chaotic.

It was even quite tidy.

For a bachelor with many responsibilities, this level of living space is quite good.

Let's talk about the living environment.

It's enough for one person to live here.

"It's not bad, but the soundproofing doesn't feel very good."

After walking around, Park Hyomin sat down on a single sofa against the wall and gave a comment in a fairly acceptable tone.

"It's a problem, but not a big one. I sleep well."

Jiang Xingchen smiled and walked to the refrigerator, took out a bottle of water, unscrewed it, and handed it to Park Hyomin. "But after a while, we should find a more convenient place."

Do you need to lend me some money?

"Not for now, but we'll see later."

"What are you thinking now?"

Park Hyo-min stopped drinking water and asked in confusion.

Having been to EPOCH so many times, she knew where Jiang Xingchen's money was.

Aside from fixed investments, the portion that is said to yield significant returns only by the end of the year.

Another one.

She had heard of Bitcoin and leverage.

However, adding the prefix "hundred times" immediately gives it a feeling that it's even less reliable than virtual currency.

Ironically, he gained a lot of confidence from all the things he did during this period.

I'm a little unsure about the situation.

"It's not a particularly big deal. It's just that EP0CH currently only has Koz, and nothing else. It's too difficult to accomplish what I want to do."

"and then?"

"I'm planning to buy a company."

"purchase?"

Park Hyo-min's eyes widened.

This sounds even more unreliable!

"YNB Entertainment announced that Uji and Dahye, two key members of BESTis, terminated their contracts a few days ago due to the company's inability to operate the business."

"The boy band KNK will most likely have to find another way out."

"They are currently in a state of extreme financial distress, practically on the verge of bankruptcy, which presents a very opportune opportunity."

Ignoring Park Hyomin's suspicions, Jiang Xingchen revealed the information she had gathered during her free time over the past two days.

Speaking of this, I only realized it when I was being teased by Park Jiyeon at Zhao Enjing's place that day.

To start a suitable entertainment company from scratch.

The timeline is too long.

That evening, I investigated the situation based on my memory.

Fortunately, Seoul has many entertainment agencies of all sizes, and quite a few with well-established structures.

It can be considered a local specialty to some extent.

Therefore, after conducting the investigation, he finalized a general plan.

To acquire or invest in a company and become a major shareholder.

In comparison.

He prefers the former.

After all, what you control is what truly belongs to you.

Regarding assets.

Professional practice rooms, recording studios and equipment, etc.

He didn't value it that much.

It's just an inanimate object.

The team is the most important thing.

"Do you have money?"

Park Hyo-min didn't think there was much of a problem with his idea, but a key issue still remained.

Surely you can't make a fortune just by using Bitcoin for leveraged trading, right?

"They're not going bankrupt anytime soon!" Jiang Xingchen waved his hand with a smile before continuing, "This is plenty of time."

Park Hyo-min remained silent for a while.

Although Jiang Xingchen was very confident about this, she was still not entirely at ease.

"Don't go too far," she said.

"Don't worry, I'll let you see my bank account balance in a couple of days."

When money was mentioned, Park Hyo-min had a new problem—the new venue at EPOCH that she had just rented that day.

If that's the case, then why waste money?

"Two... or you could say one reason."

Jiang Xingchen held up two fingers. "I have a different vision for EPOCH. EPOCH has a different meaning for me and for you. So even if we acquire a company and rename it EPOCH, we still need to keep an independent place for it."

significance?

Park Hyo-min was completely in the dark.

Clearly, they didn't understand the meaning.

But seeing the man in front of her stop speaking there, she knew he had no intention of continuing to explain.

I shook my head, trying to clear these jumbled thoughts away.

She picked up her phone, got up, and prepared to go back.

Seeing this, Jiang Xingchen followed her.

It's late at night.

The security here is not as good as in the upscale neighborhoods where they live.

So we have to keep an eye on things.

"By the way, I spoke with the design director of GGPX today, and she asked me to meet her the day after tomorrow afternoon."

"Do you want to come with me?"

"She would really like to meet you, but it's okay if you don't have time."

"Of course I have time. I also have something I'd like to talk to her about."

"What?"

"Give Kim Kwang-soo a little treat."

"You're being way too generous, you're so silly!"

Speaking of Kim Kwang-soo, Park Hyo-min couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark about Kang Sung-chen.

The reason was that he negotiated the terms with Kim Kwang-soo in order to ensure that subsequent operations could proceed normally.

"I mentioned this when I was talking to Jiyeon in the office in Mangwon-dong that day."

"Given Kim Kwang-soo's petty nature, it would be very difficult for him to maintain your normal activities during this period without sufficient benefits."

"Money, you can always earn it back."

"If you guys really become washed up, wouldn't I be at a huge loss!"

Jiang Xingchen didn't feel she had lost too much.

A small loss isn't a real loss...

As they spoke, the two had already walked to the car.

Same as before.

Jiang Xingchen carefully used her hand to block the door frame.

However, Park Hyo-min didn't rush to get into the car, but instead went up to give her a gentle hug.

Then he stepped back.

Seeing the look of surprise on Jiang Xingchen's face, she gave him a bright smile.

"Don't overthink it, I didn't mean anything by it, I just want to thank you for everything you've done."

Jiang Xingchen nodded slightly, indicating that she wouldn't think too much about it.

The next second, it opened its mouth and smelled it.

"It was so sudden just now I didn't really feel anything, and I won't think about it too much anyway. Shall we hug again?"

"roll!"
