don’t be new
But Eugene believed that Samantha would do a great job.
Because she already knows very well that she has accomplished quite a few feats with Peter.
In the future Eugene experienced, Peter and Samantha Hayworks were awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for their achievements far more tangible than any other group, individual, or government up to that point on the issue of poverty in the Third World. It was.
This was possible because her husband, Peter’s huge capital, and Samantha’s leadership were in perfect harmony.
For Eugene, today’s meeting was an opportunity to perfectly acquire the two of them.
To be more precise, he was trying to make Peter, the genius of the century, more of his own person through Samantha.
Even after such a group was formed, the helicopter repeatedly landed on the upper deck of the ship and then left, and each time a group of people boarded the yacht again.
After some time passed, the yacht was crowded with people and a social party was taking place.
“Great preparation.”
Eugene paid tribute to Monica for clearing up this unannounced position without any problems.
“It’s just as the boss asked from the beginning. We are preparing for more than 100 people to gather and enjoy at any time.”
Eugene didn’t want to waste even the slightest bit of this expensive boat he had bought from a wealthy Arab.
He wanted it to be used for employee events of the companies he invested in, or he wanted to be able to use it as a venue for his own social events.
Many of the wealthy who own mega yachts over 100 meters use the yacht as their own private castle.
Never share that secret place with anyone, even when you’re not using it.
There are also a few wealthy people who make a profit by renting out at a very high cost when they are not using it.
But Eugene was neither of those two.
He is not interested in teasing a yacht worth more than 100 billion won in the port, or making a small amount of money by renting it.
I found a way to make good use of it so that it would not be a useless waste, and I chose to bring joy to many people.
In that respect, Eugene, who is self-proclaimed the richest person in the world, sometimes thinks that he is not yet the richest man.
Still, Eugene’s life was far from being wasted both in private life and in business.
“It’s a nice yacht. How much is a yacht like this?”
Anyone who boards a yacht for the first time comes up with similar greetings and similar questions.
“Nice to meet you. Thank you for accepting even though I was invited unexpectedly. Rosinald.”
“Isn’t it my loss if I don’t come running when Eugene calls and it’s not anyone else?”
An ambitious young congressman who was just entering his forties approached with a bright expression and held out his hand.
Rosinald, a member of the Blue Dog Coalition, a minority faction within the Democratic Party, is in many ways the epitome of a minority.
Compared to the percentage of the population in the United States, Congress is very small Latino and women, and in the Democratic Party, he is a member of the conservative Blue Dog, so he always seemed to be looking for minorities.
In the American political world, as in Korean politics, various factions are formed.
The only difference is that in Korea, factions are formed and dispersed around a specific person, whereas in the United States, groups are organized according to the caucus.
The Blue Dog, to which Rosinald belongs, is a group of legislators within the Democrats who are uniquely sympathetic to the Republican Party’s discourse.
In general, centrists have great power based on wide support, but at present, the centrists of the Democratic Party are the smallest faction within the party.
This may mean that Americans’ political positions are becoming increasingly extreme.
People on the left stand more to the left, and the right wing is being swept away by extreme thinking.
With the arrival of the Trump administration, this confrontation has grown even bigger, and those who are now advocating the center are not being well received by either the right or the left.
“How are you today?”
“I’m going to die. Politics and economics are a complete mess. I wonder how the country can be so dizzy.”
“You are speaking like a voter.”
“I feel like I’d rather be an ordinary voter than I am right now.”
When Eugene asked a question with a smile, Rosinald answered with a slight weeping smile.
“At this point, I don’t know what to do with the isolation policy.”
Of course, once the Republican Party takes power, it will be normal for the Democrats to rant like this.
However, Rosinald’s complaints did not last long.
Eugene and Trump’s friendship is known to any American, and the politician Rosinald never crosses the line.
“Actually, I don’t like it because of my brother. After graduating from college, I went to a law firm, but the rumors there aren’t good. Apparently, the litigation I’m in charge of right now is pretty unfavorable. However, since we are investing quite a lot of resources, I think the company will be at risk if we lose the lawsuit. It hurts my heart to think that a child who was so zealous would be disappointed.”
“Did Rosinald have a brother? I didn’t know. I’m sorry for this.”
“ah! Not my brother… … My father is divorced and my mother is a different brother. I’m using my mom’s surname, and I’m using my dad’s surname. But did you remember the family of someone like me?”
Rosinald asked with a little joy.
“Sure. It’s good to know that there are still people so close to Rosinald.”
One of the things that Eugene is very good at is keeping the history of the people she meets and family relationships in her head.
It was a skill I learned naturally because I had been in charge of a job close to sales for a long time.
“That’s great. Thank you for remembering a big guy like Eugene.”
“Even if there is a problem with your brother’s company, you will be able to find a new good job.”
Of course, lawyers in the United States are not as highly praised professions as in Korea.
Tens of thousands of new lawyers are born every year through the bar exam, and nearly 5,000 new lawyers are produced in New York alone.
It goes without saying that you have to go to a good law school to get a job at a good law firm.
It won’t be easy to get another good job after the law firm’s bankruptcy under these circumstances, but if your sister is a New York State Representative, it’s a different story.
The United States is also a place where people live, so if you have a strong person in your family, it will be helpful in many ways.
“I used to say that I would build a career there and enter politics like me. I am worried that I will be frustrated by too many difficulties from the beginning. And I have no intention of helping him get a job.”
Rosinald said with a serious expression. It meant that she would not do anything that could become a weakness in the future, even for the sake of her ambition.
On the other hand, it may be meant to emphasize that speaking to Eugene is never a request.
So, instead of saying that he would make a place for her younger brother, Eugene brought out words of comfort.
“When there is an adversity that cannot be overcome by one’s own strength, in the East, the term Saeongjima is used.”
Sometimes, Eugene uses her Asian identity rather appropriately.
For Americans, the Orient remains a mysterious place, and classic Oriental anecdotes and phrases are preferred by others.
“Aren’t you new? It’s hard to follow.”
As expected, Rosinald puts her lips together, trying to imitate Eugene’s pronunciation, and then waits for an explanation with her eyes twinkling.
“An old man on the frontier had a very nice horse. But one day this horse ran over us and ran away. People comforted the old man with his misfortune, but the old man said, who knows if this will be a blessing. Of course, people didn’t understand the old man. But the horse returned with a herd of wild horses. This time people said congratulations because you got rich. Then, this time, the old man refused to congratulate him, saying he did not know if it was true. Again, people could not understand the old man.”
“Are you saying that just as running horses can have good results, this time increasing horses can have bad results?”
Rosinald predicted the story’s next more intelligently than the average person.
“It looks like that. The old man’s son fell off one of the wild horses and injured his leg.”
“ah! Clearly, there are some noble ideas running through Eastern philosophy.”
It was hard to tell whether she really felt that way, or whether she was so admiring because it was Eugene who said it.
“Once again, people comforted the old man for his misfortune. But still the old man answered casually. Who knows if this will be a blessing again.”
“Hmm, is there a case where a leg injury is actually a good thing?”
“And it wasn’t long before a great war broke out. All the strong young men were conscripted and had to go to war.”
“ah! Then the son who injured his leg would not have to go to war.”
Rosinald exclaimed as if realizing it.
“yes. The wars of the past were so horrendous that most of those taken to the battlefield died or had to live with horrific disabilities. I was really fortunate to have injured my leg.”
“It’s a wonderful story. You mean that disaster is sometimes a blessing?”
“Isn’t it closer to the fact that no one can predict the world?”
“Right. It’s something no one can know. Thank you. Thank you for giving me some energy.”
As if it wasn’t empty words, her expression really brightened.
