We gathered in the Golden Gate Governor’s office to watch President Vysotsky’s announcement.
Newspapers around the world rushed to publish articles.
[(Breaking News) Professor Petrov’s team succeeds in conducting wave reactor experiment!][Is the era of safe nuclear power ushering?][What is the future of the energy industry drawn by OTK Company?][What is Korea’s plan to phase out nuclear power?][Korea nuclear power plant, which is lagging behind in technology, concerns about export disruption growing][Saudi nuclear power plant officials contacted Rosatom, exporting nuclear power plants to Korea in progress][Greenpeace Emergency Statement! There is no such thing as a safe nuclear power plant… … ]Taek-gyu stuck out his tongue even though he knew he had been contacted beforehand.
“It’s very fast. What speed fight?”
If the experiment had been conducted in Korea, it would have taken several years to select a site for the nuclear reactor test and to collect opinions from residents.
Even considering the fact that the foundation work has been completed, this is beyond imagination.
Hyunjoo noona said while drinking coffee.
“That means Russia was in a hurry.”
Europe is also actively engaged in the construction of nuclear power plants.
From the Russian perspective, since they have the TWR key after the natural gas pipe, they can use the economic sanctions as full leverage.
Ellie let out her sigh.
“Because of Jinhoo, only us will be busy again.”
Again, the financial markets responded immediately.
While oil and natural gas prices have plummeted, stock prices of related companies soared as nuclear power plant construction is expected to increase.
Although there are still difficulties before commercialization, it has become clear that TWR will become the mainstream for nuclear power plants in the future.
Hyunjoo noona looked at me through her glasses.
“Did you expect it to be like this?”
“of course. I invested because I expected it to do well.”
“When I first heard about it, I was worried if I was investing as I wanted… … I was kind of worried too.”
Taehyung nodded his head.
“Then there is no need to worry about Jinfu.”
If there are 100 investors, there are 100 ways to invest.
Some trust financial statements, some trust people and invest. Some make decisions by thorough analysis, others by sense.
Japan’s most famous investor, Softbox Chairman Masayoshi Song is famous for making investment decisions in a short time.
He made the decision to invest $20 million right away while having a meal with Ma Won, CEO of Alizini. According to Masayoshi Song later, it took less than 30 minutes to make an investment decision, and the rest was time to eat.
The result, as everyone knows, is a jackpot beyond imagination.
No matter how you invest, the results are good.

The U.S.-China trade war that shook the world ended in a complete defeat for China.
China accepts most of the US’s requirements and has agreed to loosen restrictions and reduce its trade deficit.
China has had countless precedents of trade retaliation against countries that disobeyed its interests, but it was helpless when faced with the same by the United States.
Surprisingly, it all started after Kang Jin-hoo.
He revealed that Zhou Cha had used a spy chip to steal Karos’ self-driving technology, and the entire United States was shocked.
When it comes to the cause, it was clearly China’s responsibility, and when China, which was initially evasive, was pushed into a corner, eventually admitted that the allegations raised by Kang Jin-hoo were true, and apologized and compensated.
China grinded its teeth, but it was unable to afford trade retaliation against South Korea to settle a trade dispute with the United States.
However, despite the official announcement, the Chinese media had a completely different opinion.
Zhou Cha said that although he never copied Karos’s technique, he was forced to admit it under pressure from the US. And many Chinese believed it.
Chinese consumers sporadically boycotted Korean products, and the state-run media poured out criticisms of Kang Jin-hoo whenever they had a chance.
[What adverse effects did financial speculator Jin-hoo Kang have on the global economy?][OTK Company is a hotbed of illegality and tax evasion][A speculator with America on his back… … ][Contemplation after Kang Jin-ho is like Mangtagjoui… … ]In the midst of these accusations, President Vysotsky’s announcement was made. Then the atmosphere changed subtly.
A key part of China’s recent energy policy is to increase the number of nuclear power plants. In fact, it was making a huge investment in nuclear power technology for this purpose.
Originally, Chinese nuclear power companies were planning to conduct joint experiments in China in cooperation with US Mega Power, but this was canceled due to a trade dispute. In addition, the United States banned the export of experimental equipment, technology transfer, and acquisition of American companies.
China, whose hands and feet are tied, has no choice but to step in the direction of strengthening nuclear cooperation with Russia. However, Professor Petrov’s research team, which was funded by OTK Company, succeeded in the world’s first TWR experiment!
Until just a few days ago, the state-run media, which had harshly criticized Kang Jin-hoo, suddenly poured out articles to the contrary.
[21st century Zhuge Liang succeeded in TWR investment!][An amazing investor with the same insight as Zhang Liang!][Jinhu Kang, if you know about it, he is a descendant of Myeongjae of the Zhou Dynasty and the progenitor of the Qi Dynasty, Kang Taegong][In China, after the earthquake, the same investor should come out… … ]Korean netizens who saw the article reacted absurdly.
– Hey! After Gangjin, I upgraded from Mangtagjoui to Zhuge Liang!
-Why is Taegong Kang here? Mr. Kang, do you just stick with it?
-Ah! That’s true. I am Jinhu Kang, and I am the Jinju Kang clan, and I have Taegong Kang as my ancestor.
-They suddenly changed their attitude because they were in a pitiful situation.
– Haha, the true press of the continent!
– Seeing something like this, Jinhoo Kang is really amazing. The OTK Company paid for the TWR experiment.
– To be honest, Chinese nuclear power plants are meaningless except for cheap ones. efficiency also decreases. Glad it didn’t explode.
-Does China want to cooperate with Russia to commercialize TWR?
– What is Korea doing?
-do not talk to me. I’m busy denuclearization.

I first spoke to Professor Petrov.
“congratulations.”
Professor Petrov said with a smile.
[So far, the theory has only been verified. From now on it’s real. We plan to proceed with the next step immediately in cooperation with those involved in Rosatom.]Even with this, it can be said that half of the hurdles have already been crossed at the time the experiment is successful.
If the traveling wave reactor, called the dream reactor, is commercialized, the global nuclear market will be booming in the future.
Then I had a video call with President Vysotsky.
Seeing her with a smile on her face, she looks pretty good. Seriously, after groaning from Western sanctions for a while, the opportunity for a reversal was prepared.
Near the end of the conversation, President Vysotsky brought up another story.
“Last year, China’s Li Huning resigned, did you know?”
“I think I heard it.”
The Politburo Standing Committee has seven members, including President Zhang Pinghua. These are the leaders who lead the huge continent called China.
“The superficial reason was ill health. But I heard recently that there was another reason.”
I’m saying it’s not a big deal, but when it comes to China’s key politicians, it’s not common.
Who would you have heard of? Have you heard from the KGB?
In any country, various information is collected through intelligence agencies. As everyone knows, he is from the Russian intelligence agency, the KGB. It is known that important information is reported directly to the KGB director.
“It has nothing to do with you, would you like to hear it?”
“With me?”
President Vysotsky started talking, and after a while my face hardened more and more. After the conversation was over, I didn’t say anything for a long time.
President Vysotsky burst into laughter.
“haha! Don’t make such a scary face.”
“Ah… … .”
He tried to fix his expression, but it wasn’t as easy as he thought. There was a slight convulsion in the corner of his mouth. I don’t even know what kind of expression I’m making right now.
“I feel like I have to tell you. I hope it helps.”
“Thank you.”
Does this mean you owe a debt?

An invitation was sent from Beijing.
The Chinese government is inviting Korean businessmen to promote economic cooperation between the two countries. Not only OTK Company, but also Seoseong, Eunseong, and CL received invitations.
Taek-gyu asked.
“Are you going?”
“Go. Everyone is going with Chairman Im Jin-yong.”
Even though China’s economic growth rate has fallen, it is still overwhelming compared to other countries. Due to the US-China dispute, regulations have been relaxed, and as China is actively attracting foreign companies, global companies are increasing their investment in China.
After the Zhou Cha incident, relations between Korea and China cooled, which led to damage to Korean companies. The government will also feel a great burden.
This isn’t my fault, but I can’t say it’s unrelated. This time, I will go eat and shake hands with President Zhang Pinghua, and then the mood will be a little better.
“If you go to China, aren’t you going to get caught by the police and die?”
“Are you going to have to go out anyway?”
“Isn’t China a country where anything is possible?”
“Still, there is a tradition that the reaper does not kill.”
Being invited by the government means taking full responsibility for security and safety. If something happens to me, America will not stand still.
“Well, it’s not that we’re going to go there for the country and the people, aren’t we supposed to go to China later?”
The technology that Carlos possessed did not suddenly fall from the sky one day. In two or three years, Chinese companies will follow suit to where they are now. As we have a huge domestic market, it will be easy to collect data.
The three largest single economies in the world are the United States, Europe and China.
After dominating the US market, it has to expand to exports, but Europe is currently struggling to grow by 1 percent. On the other hand, China continues to grow by more than 6 percent despite a number of adverse factors.
Therefore, no company can give up on the huge market of China.
China would also like to cooperate with the OTK company in various fields, including TWR. So, I must have invited me to resolve the relationship.

The presidents either boarded their own private planes, or left first class and flew to Beijing.
I left the company with Taek-gyu and headed to Beijing on a private plane. Afraid to unpack the luggage at the hotel, Commerce Manager Li Suwei came with an interpreter.
He said holding my hand with both hands.
“Welcome, Mr. Kang. I should have been to Beijing once before, but now I have the opportunity. Nice to see you again here.”
It was like meeting a close friend after a long time. Even though something like this has happened before, it doesn’t look like he’s bothered at all.
“This is the first time since last time.”
Li Suwei, director of commerce, smiled broadly.
“Haha, though, because of that, Mr. Kang and I have formed such a relationship, isn’t that a good thing? The Zhou tea side also apologized and paid compensation, and Mr. Kang accepted it, so I hope you will forget about the past.”
“… … .
Whoever heard it said that the Chinese government had nothing to do with it.
“If you have time, how about having a cup of tea together?”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)
“Now?”
“Yes. Actually, there are people who want to meet Professor Kang. Even if you look at my face, I beg you. It will not take a long time.”
Judging by the look on his face, I don’t think he should refuse.
I nodded.
“Okay.”
We moved in the prepared car.
The small teahouse was completely empty, and a man was seated first.
a face you know Probably everyone in the world knows his face, except me.
After hearing Li Suwei’s tone, I was afraid, but my prediction was correct.
He got up and held out his hand.
“nice to meet you. See you here again.”
“long time no see.”
His eyes were comfortable with a warm impression like the man next door, but he felt a natural sense of intimidation. After all, it is only natural that he is the leader of the 1.4 billion people.
Director Li Suwei left his seat, and the interpreter who came with him remained. After we said our goodbyes and sat down, a staff member came and poured our tea.
President Zhang Pinghua said, raising the teacup.
“This is Hokui tea made in Taiping Prefecture. I hope it suits your taste.”
“Thank you, I will drink.”
I drank it slowly and tasted it. It’s probably expensive tea, but I don’t know if it’s worth drinking.
“Have you been to Beijing?”
“I went on a trip with a friend in the past. The air is a lot better than it was back then.”
The reason is that the factory in Beijing has been moved to the outskirts. As a result, the air in Beijing improved, but the surrounding area was covered with fine dust instead.
The problem is that the dust blows to the Korean Peninsula only when the wind blows.
After a moment’s hesitation, I opened my mouth.
“Can I ask you an excused question?”
“First of all, I’m curious to know what kind of question you’re going to ask.”
Zhang Pinghua nodded his head, and I opened my mouth.
“At the time Karos was in the middle of a dispute with Zhou Cha, there was talk of arresting a Hong Konger, is that true?”
For a brief moment, a startling light flashed from his eyes.
But then he spoke calmly.
“There are no Hong Kongers. There are only Chinese people who are all the same.”
“Then they call me Hong Kong resident.”
“Who is that Hong Kong resident talking about?”
I put down the teacup and said.
“He’s Eli Kim’s father.”
