A Lie Has Become Reality - Chapter 63



63 – How about some psychotherapy?

(Jason’s point of view)

“If you just sign here, the agreement for all transactions will be finalized, Jason.”

Clearly-

I finished my signature as the man sitting in front said.

With this, the boring 30-minute equity trading contract is over.

‘You idiot. What are you trying to do with Eric Musk bastard?’

As expected.

Kim Seong-wu asked me about the Power Games equity transaction that I proposed later.

Although it was sold at a bargain price that was far below the original price with a lot of discounts added, it wasn’t bad.

In return, we added a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) and the condition of receiving the entire payment in a lump sum in cash.

“Here it is.”

“We will transfer the transaction amount directly to the account you wrote down. Thanks for using Jason.”

“It’s nice that the work is cool.”

The broker smiled, showing neat teeth.

That’s right, just thinking about the fee you took away will make you smile.

It’s me, I’ve got everything I need, so I don’t really have any complaints.

‘I have to hurry.’

Because Power Games is an unlisted company with less than 2,000 registered shareholders, it has relatively few disclosure obligations compared to other companies.

However, in the case of a major agenda such as a change in shareholding, public disclosure is of course compulsory.

In particular, it is mandatory to report important information such as the sale of shares by a major shareholder in advance.

Of course, ex post disclosure is possible as an exception under the Securities Exchange Act if certain conditions are met.

And to meet the conditions, isn’t it that he hired a broker at an expensive fee?

Every preparation process is perfect.

‘Prime Tech…… ‘

Philip said that son of a b*tch was Prime Tech.

Just in case, I dug into what Prime Tech is doing.

The results were shocking.

Contacting Enslar, which is managed by Eric Musk, for a long-term supply contract by trillions, if the contract is concluded, it will be a few times bigger in an instant.

Although financial statements and various indicators pointed to the worst, and even capital erosion was under way, the good news in front of us was so huge that it made all of these things look like sh*t.

His tweet saying that there is nothing certain, so invest carefully, is, at least, groundbreaking as usual.

There is no need to worry about Prime Tech’s miserable financial situation as everyone will be impatient because they can’t invest once the contract with Enslar is concluded.

That’s because Eric Musk’s name value is overwhelming in this stock market.

In the end, my thoughts became certain beyond doubt.

Philip, the damn bastard, must have been thinking of copying money using the insider information he received from Eric Musk in exchange for all his stake.

Even though we’re no match for enemies right now… But that’s right, are you trying to monopolize this enormous amount of information?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt resentful.

‘I don’t care anymore.’

A spring breeze is finally blowing in my life.

Something to do with ignorant gamers who buzz like flying flies, and work all night in pursuit of deadlines.

All these are stories far from me.

Knock-

I opened the door and went outside without looking back.

Shall we start by looking at the house? Or should we start with the car we’ve been eyeing right now?

A trip to a resort for a few months seems like a good idea.

It feels like even my heart is tickling at the smell of the fresh wind.

****

“Assholes. They are swept away like fallen leaves in the autumn wind.”

I laughed while looking at the chart on the monitor.

I’ve lived with games all my life, so I’m not familiar with investing, but I’m absolutely right this time.

That’s because I have certain information.

“Puha, it’s easy to get rid of it.

I feel like I can hear the cries of investors from the chart in the monitor.

Certainly, the current downtrend of Prime Tech is quite threatening.

If I hadn’t had clear information, I would have been swept away by crowd psychology and threw a panic cell.

But I know that this is the groundwork for the big good news that is about to explode.

“Today is quiet.”

Eric Musk, who is supposed to be dragging aggro with all sorts of crap for a while, has been strangely quiet today.

As it is the day when a large-scale contract is concluded, it seems that you are busy with work and do not have time to spend on social media.

When I think of that unlucky stand-by, a bitter taste lingers in my mouth for no reason.

Wagjak-

I picked up an apple neatly placed on a plate with a fork and took a big bite.

I passed the time savoring the juice that burst with every bite.

-Looking at the hardening of the floor, it looks like it will explode soon. Let’s go~!!!!

-There are signs of a rebound!!!

-I don’t understand. What the hell do you believe in when you buy this?

N Eric Musk only mentioned that he was in contact, but look at the stock price fluctuating.

ㄴ Even though this company is currently suffering from economic difficulties, it is a large and fundamental company. The technology is great too.

Yes, yes, there will be an official meeting on the Golden Gate Bridge soon.

-Does the end of the world start soon?

-When will the replacement announcement be made? My heart is shaking and I can’t stand it.

No need to wait for the announcement? Would you sign a contract with a company like this?

N It’s worth it, so Eric Musk will be interested.

This is how Eric Musk only made contact.

Don’t feed me. You have to break your head to come to your senses.

-If you look at your financial situation, it wouldn’t be strange if you went bankrupt right away, but this is included. Admit one crap.

The PrimeTech community’s live chat was a real frenzy.

From my point of view, who knows all the truth, it’s just funny.

“Assholes.”

It’s about capital erosion. It’s not a problem if only contracts are concluded and investments come flooding in.

Because they are so ignorant, they will be swayed here and there and make the capitalists’ boats full.

In a way, people like me are benefiting from idiots like that.

It was a car that was wasting time watching real-time chatting like that.

Diring-!

The phone’s notification sound rang loudly.

“… !”

I put the apple in my hand back on the plate and picked up my phone.

Right now, there is only one notification to sound in this situation.

The movement of the finger to unlock the screen became rapid.

“Come!!!”

The blue notification message was, of course, a new message from Eric Musk.

I clicked on the notification with trembling fingers.

The screen switched instantly with the loading window.

@EricMusk

-Negotiations with Prime Tech have broken down. They deliberately left out the most important information.

@EricMusk

– They’re like scammers.

From noble mtl dot com

@EricMusk

-There is no leniency for scammers. They’ll pay their fair share sooner or later.

Took-!

The mobile phone he was holding fell out of his loosened grip and fell to the floor.

“Ah…… “

It seems that his post went through the neck.

Sentences such as “Negotiations are broken” Hit me in the head one after another.

“Uh… ?”

A soulless sigh escaped his throat.

My face reflected in the mirror was ghastly, as if I had seen a ghost.

Holding on to his broken spirit, he moved his gaze to the chart in the monitor.

“Heo Eok…… !”

The chart, which seemed to be bottoming out, was pouring out an overwhelming selling volume as if drawing a waterfall.

This is not the time.

I have to shake it off now.

I somehow moved my trembling right hand to adjust the selling price to the ask price, then pressed the sell button.

“Please… no… !!!”

In the market, stock trading is eventually concluded by supply and demand.

This means that the transaction between the buyer and the seller must be matched in order for the transaction to be concluded.

However, what will happen if buyers’ willingness to buy is noticeably lacking while sales are pouring in like now?

Simple.

The transaction is not concluded because supply and demand do not match.

In other words, you can’t sell even if you want to sell.

Of course, if you sell at a price much lower than the asking price, you can avoid the worst situation.

However, how many people can maintain reason and make the best judgment in desperate situations?

Especially for me, who has spent my whole life developing games, that is close to impossible.

The real-time chat window placed next to the chart was covered with messages that were updated at a tremendous speed.

-Kkoeok~~~ Longchung is eating well~~~ ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Yes, sweet, sweet hahahahaha Have you searched all the reverse bugs? Lol

– Major shareholders are also throwing all their stock

-All of the short sellers have gathered here ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha The game is over ㅇㅇ.

B Buying this is an idiot hahahahaha

-Golden Gate Bridge is going to explode today lol

-Eric Musk even gave an inappropriate warning, saying to be careful about investing, but it’s his fault for buying this.

Breaking hahahaha just brain-trafficking psychopaths hahahaha

Can’t you get a quote just by looking at company information?

– Let’s go to the top~

“Heo Eok…… !”

Heavy breath came out, like someone who had just risen to the surface.

The sound I heard that day shimmered in my ears.

“As instructed, I bought enough Prime Tech shares. Enough bullets. hahahaha I have to retire now.”

This is not the time to take care of your pride.

I have to ask Phillip how this happened right now.

Maybe it’s still in the stage of robbing ants.

I called him without letting go of a thread of hope.

Doo-Doo-

An irregular ringtone hit my eardrum.

I just held my breath and waited for the call to connect.

– This is Philip Hoffman.

“Philip!! I am Jason.”

-… Just take out the business quickly.

Kwadeuk-!

I was quite offended by Philip’s way of speaking, but I have to endure it.

As he wanted, he took out the business right away.

“Hey, none other than I inadvertently overheard you talking on the phone in the office the other day.”

-What?

“Didn’t you say that you bought enough stocks of Prime Tech as instructed?”

-……

“I have no intention of condemning that choice. I also bought some prime tech stock, but it’s because the current situation is not serious. Can you explain what happened?”

-Jason You bought Primetech stock?

“Yes.”

There was a sense of hope in his raised voice.

For a moment, I remembered the number of cases where the operation had not started properly yet.

Isn’t the current situation also highly likely to be ant shedding?

-I’m sorry, but Jason, you are completely mistaken.

“What?”

-I did buy prime tech stock. I sold everything short, but that’s it.

“The ball… sell…… ?”

-Yes. I can’t understand. What on earth did you believe in doing that? How much did you buy Primetech stock for? This… Jay…… Son…… My words… Field… lee…… Answer…… “

I heard Philip’s voice sparsely in my mind that was blinking in white.

What? I bought a stock, but I bought it because of short selling?

Does this make any sense?

“Kuuu…… Heo-eok… !”

A squeezing sound came out of his throat.

The suppressed cry was like that of an animal.

The chart in the monitor that was still piercing the floor came into my field of vision, blurry from the tears welling up in my eyes.

“Ha… ha ha ha… “

“aaa!!!!!”

I cried and then laughed.

I screamed and tried to sell, but most of the sales, except for a very small amount, were not concluded.

I even needed a loan to raise money.

Is it fortunate that the house and car are in good condition?

As for loans, I have only been looking for credit loans, so somehow……

Diring-!

I suddenly woke up to the sound of a notification ringing in my ears like tinnitus.

As if possessed by a ghost, he clicked on the notification.

@EricMusk

-Oh that’s amazing. Whenever you ignore my words and buy stocks, do you blame me?

@EricMusk

-As Jason said, how about getting psychotherapy? Seriously.

@EricMusk

-Thank you Jason! Thanks to you, I’m learning good words.

“f*ck!!!!!”

Bang-!

I threw the phone against the wall.
