Real Man-Chapter 864

In this situation, a rather unexpected news came out from Russia.

Softbank, which had been investing in media and IT companies, suddenly went for gas pipelines.

The clueless reporters poured out speculative articles.

Click.

As he was browsing the articles in his office, Yoo-hyun heard a commotion outside the door.

“We did it. Aikan Goldenway’s funds are temporarily tied up.”

“Good! Increase the selling ratio!”

“We have to time it when the shares spill out.”

The voices of the quiet employees rose up.

The unexpected attack seemed to have shaken the opponent.

Why was that? 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Yoo-hyun turned his head and looked at the world map on the wall screen.

The red dot above Russia turned yellow, and next to it was the logo of Softbank.

Soon, more yellow dots appeared.

The newsbot displayed the articles of the allies spread around the world on the screen.

The companies that had gained huge profits through national conflicts were captured one by one.

Yoo-hyun, who had divided the priorities by predicting the changes in the stakes of each company and the future conflicts, checked the progress carefully.

The work was going well, and the more it did, the more excited the employees’ voices became.

He finished checking the news from Europe.

Beep.

His phone rang and a message came in the secret chat window.

-Christina Mersson: We made a big decision. I hope you don’t forget this debt.

It was not easy for an investment specialist company to invest in a company with a different nature.

Especially, it was not a company that was chosen by the internal process of the company, but a company that was recommended from outside.

The risk of pushing it through with the chairman’s unilateral decision was also not trivial.

So he was very grateful.

-I know. I will repay you with victory.

Yoo-hyun, who sent the reply, thought of Carl Aikan.

He had focused all the attention on Aikan Goldenway, and then simultaneously aimed at the back.

He was surprised by the mere fact that the existence of the Medallion, the source of power, was revealed.

How would he feel seeing the arms and legs of the huge hidden company being cut off?

Wouldn’t he want to stop it somehow?

He wouldn’t have much to say in the current situation where he was caught up in the presidential candidate fight.

Squeak.

Yoo-hyun’s mouth curled up.

The final stage. The decisive blow.

The attack of Mirinae Securities against Aikan Goldenway lasted for three days.

When the stock price plummeted, the management rights were bound to shake.

In extreme cases, there was a possibility of bankruptcy due to the repayment of debts such as corporate bonds.

Eventually, Carl Aikan’s friendly shares trickled out into the market.

There was evidence that cracks were occurring in the walls of the solid Aikan Goldenway.

How could he achieve such a result against a giant capital company?

Click.

The reason was displayed on the screen in Yoo-hyun’s office.

Park Young-hoon, who was looking at the world map with Yoo-hyun, exclaimed.

“Wow. There are a lot of yellow dots.”

“They are moving fast.”

“They are amazing. Thanks to them, we have a lot of room. Aikan Goldenway can’t respond at all.”

To counter the short selling, they had to raise the stock price, but Aikan Goldenway was helpless.

Even if they had a lot of money, the funds circulating in the market were limited, and the simultaneous attacks tied up their money lines.

On the other hand, Yoo-hyun invested all the money he had saved up and the money he borrowed as collateral.

If the stock price fell as much as he wanted, and enough shares were released in the market?

It was possible to liquidate the short selling and buy the shares at once to neutralize Aikan Goldenway.

If he secured 33 percent of the shares, he could block all the emergency resolutions of the board.

“That’s good.”

Park Young-hoon said to Yoo-hyun, who nodded.

“They must have some means to be flexible even if their money lines are blocked. Right now, Carl Aikan seems to be careful because he is caught up in the presidential issue.”

“He wouldn’t want to show anyone that he is begging for help.”

“Haha. Carl Aikan’s pride must be hurt. Anyway, we have to tie them up tightly before we see the outcome. More than now.”

Park Young-hoon, who shrugged his shoulders, picked up the newspaper on the table.

Swoosh.

The headline had a picture of Carl Aikan surrounded by reporters.

Yoo-hyun stared at his face and asked.

“It’s time for the decisive blow, right?”

“That’s right. Did you hear from the new president?”

“Not yet.”

“This guy is so frustrating to communicate with. The person who has to do the most important role is so timid.”

Yoo-hyun was incredulous as he watched Park Young-hoon shout out loud.

“You get annoyed whenever Shin Kyung-soo comes up.”

“When did I?”

“Then why don’t you talk to him face to face?”

“That’s a no. I refuse.”

Park Young-hoon crossed his arms in an X shape with a disgusted look.

Yoo-hyun chuckled and recalled Shin Kyung-soo’s plan.

-Carl Aikan has evidence that he tricked the stock price by lying about the new drug before he bankrupted Hyugen Life. The groups that were harmed by it are still suing him.

A fraud lawsuit was enough to gather reporters.

But the new drug issue of Hyugen Life, which ruined Seven Investment, was a different story.

Especially in the situation where he was involved in the presidential issue.

The moment this news came out, Carl Aikan would be surrounded by police, not reporters.

It didn’t matter even if it was just for a day.

The moment the control tower was absent, the game was over if he delivered the decisive blow.

‘Come on, show me the results of the preparation you’ve been grinding your teeth for two years.’

Now, only Shin Kyung-soo’s appearance was left.

Yoo-hyun was waiting for his contact.

Bang.

The door opened and Kim Sang-woo, the director, ran in.

“Pre, president.”

“Why are you acting like that? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”

“Th-that’s because…”

“Calm down and tell me what’s going on.”

Kim Sang-woo, the head of the department, spoke with a trembling voice. His face was pale.

“The stock price of Aikan Goldenway is skyrocketing.”

“What? What are you talking about?”

“Someone is buying up the shares explosively. We are losing our leverage.”

“What did you say?”

Park Young-hoon, who was startled, ran over.

Short selling is a structure where you lose money if the stock price rises above the borrowed price.

To prevent that, Park Young-hoon pushed with his capital.

The plan was successful and the market atmosphere was going as he wanted.

At the point where only the final twist was left, the situation changed drastically.

Buzzing.

Confusion broke out all over the office of Mirinae Securities.

“The buying pressure is too strong. We need more funds to invest.”

“Where the hell did they hide their money?”

“Estimated loss of 100 billion dollars (12 trillion won) exceeded!”

“That’s impossible. I checked all the stake withdrawals…”

Park Young-hoon, who had passed by the employees with blank expressions, focused on the multivision installed on one side of the wall.

He muttered as he looked at the numerous graphs.

“It must be temporary. It can’t be happening.”

“…”

It was an absurd situation that made Park Young-hoon, who had a bold personality, bite his thumbnail nervously.

Yoo-hyun was also puzzled.

‘Are they giving up Medallion?’

Crackle.

If Aikan Goldenway was his visible position, Medallion was the source of power that exerted a strong influence on the political circles and various countries.

They wouldn’t give it up.

Then where did they get the money from?

He had checked not only Aikan Goldenway but also the financial situation and stake changes of the activist fund members.

There was no card that Karl Aikan could use.

It was then that Yoo-hyun, who had his eyes slightly open, glanced at the news on the multivision.

Pop.

One of the articles that was being updated in real time by the newsbot caught Yoo-hyun’s attention.

‘Huh?’

Yoo-hyun’s eyes widened as he checked the content.

Far-right protesters out of nowhere!

He was momentarily speechless, and then felt a chill run down his spine.

With a creepy feeling, Yoo-hyun quickly picked up his phone and opened the articles that the newsbot had collected from his allies.

Sure enough, he found a problem before he even turned a few pages.

The Elders Council, the Communist Party, and the Ministry of Strategy and Finance.

He was shocked by the news that exceeded his expectations, and his fingertips trembled.

Karl Aikan was the only one who could do such a thing.

All the countries seemed to be under his control, and they were attacking simultaneously.

Did he know their joint attack from the beginning?

Yoo-hyun clenched his fist with his mouth shut.

Crunch.

Park Young-hoon, who had rushed over, scowled at Yoo-hyun. “Yoo-hyun, where’s the new representative?”

“Not yet.”

“Those bastards knew our plan. If we don’t blow it up now, we can’t stop their attack!”

Park Young-hoon couldn’t stand it and called Shin Kyung-soo urgently.

-The power is off, so it will switch to call recording mode after the beep…

But the response he got was that the phone was turned off.

Park Young-hoon sighed with a disappointed look.

“Damn… Don’t tell me, this son of a bitch. Did he betray us?”

“…”

“Did we get set up by Shin Kyung-soo!”

Park Young-hoon raised his voice and the employees behind him flinched.

Yoo-hyun gave him a chin gesture as he looked at him with excitement.

“Hyung. Come with me for a second.”

“It’s urgent!”

“I know. That’s why I’m saying this.”

“Hmph!”

Park Young-hoon closed his mouth tightly and snorted at Yoo-hyun’s strong gaze.

Clang.

At the moment when Yoo-hyun opened the door of the representative’s office and entered with Park Young-hoon.

Shin Kyung-soo was facing Karl Aikan in his office.

Karl Aikan, who had stroked his white beard, muttered to himself.

“After tying up my feet, they launched the final offensive… Not a bad plan. If the Hugen Life case exploded in this situation, it would have been exactly as they wanted.”

“…”

He sneered at Shin Kyung-soo, who was silent.

“Why are you so dumbfounded? Did you think I wouldn’t know?”

“Stop beating around the bush and get to the point.”

“People are so ungrateful. First of all, thank you. Thanks to you, I was able to sweep away the annoying pyramids. Haha.”

He would soon get back the stakes of the companies that Medallion owned.

Shin Kyung-soo, who had seen through Karl Aikan’s next move, asked coldly.
