White House announcement
〈Japan’s next Prime Minister, former Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida〉
〈Moderate Conservative Prime Minister Kishida Coordinates US Visits After Inauguration〉
South Korea and Japan considered it important to meet with the US president when a new president or prime minister was elected.
It was to show off a close relationship with the United States, an ally, but in reality it meant that the US influence was that huge.
“Friend, it’s nice to see you so often.”
President Biden, who is difficult to meet once a year, came to San Francisco again.
He must have been surprised by the $50 billion investment.

When Lee Jong-yeop came to the United States, he wanted to experience a big deal.
I thought that if I had various experiences by Kim Shin’s side at a young age, my life would not be a failure.
That expectation was achieving more than 100,000% just as Dogecoin soared.
“Buy a mansion.”
“Yes, brother.”
Experienced in purchasing high-end real estate in the United States.
“Take care of the secretary’s office.”
“Yes, sir.”
At the company, he served as the secretary’s office for Earth Resources.
It was difficult to properly manage elite employees who graduated from prestigious universities in the United States or Europe, had experience working in consulting firms, and had lawyer’s licenses.
In the end, I asked Myung-Woo Oh for advice.
“Brother, what should I do?”
“Is it difficult dealing with American employees?”
“yes.”
“Most of these kids aren’t just smart. They are ambitious kids.”
“Then it would be more difficult. It’s obvious that you’ll take me completely lightly.”
“Just show me the side of Kim Shin often.”
“Would that work?”
“then. The person next to the powerful wields the most power.”
In fact, the employees began to follow him well as he showed him riding a bicycle to and from work with Kim Shin, and even going on business trips with him every day.
There was no case that he did not listen once he spoke, and even employees who showed loyalty to him appeared.
“How does Myungwoo hyung-nim know about this?”
“Look at the classic martial arts novels. Everything about human relationships is there.”
“… … .”
Lee Jong-yeop experienced the remarkable rapid growth of Earth resources up close.
‘driving me crazy. How do you achieve such great success in every business you do?’
He didn’t say anything, but inside he was shocked.
500 million or 600 million subscribers is no joke.
It created a virtuous cycle where success breeds greater success.
Not long ago, the app store business was just a superficial thing, and the real thing is the Pangea project that unites all computers.
‘This company is crazy.’
And President Biden comes every week.
“Jongyeop, nice to meet you.”
It was to the extent that he knew his name and said hello first.
Kim Shin beckoned and called.
“Jongyeop.”
“Yes, brother.”
“Coordinate this investment with the White House kids. Take a look at the situation to see if there is anything more to eat than what is known.”
“Me?”
A meeting with senior White House staff, the center of the US administration.
I couldn’t possibly say no.
“Then leave it to someone.”
“There is no one to entrust it to.”
The allowance he received from selling machines at Arcor was 300,000 won.
In exchange for a slightly higher salary, incentives were tight.
Another reason was the lack of fierce competition in ophthalmic surgery equipment.
To the extent that he had a meeting with the White House staff.
I received frequent calls from my father, a member of the National Assembly in Korea, to the point where it was annoying.
―Father: It’s nice to see you doing well.
―Father: Out of my three sons, you seem to be the most successful.
Although Lee Jong-yeop lives a successful life, he was always cautious when trying new things.
How much more would a White House employee look down on himself?
Blonde beauty in office look offered to shake hands.
“This is Paige Coda. I am the coordinator for industrial investment.”
“I am Lee Jong-yeop. I work as a secretary at Earth Resources.”
Lee Jong-yeop gained confidence the moment he held Paige’s hand.
Her eyes and facial expression are likeable.
It was a sign that things would be resolved amicably today.

I had a late conversation with President Biden.
After confirming that the investment of 50 billion dollars was true, I liked it even more when it was said that it was a semiconductor factory.
“That’s how a $50 billion investment works.”
“Yes, so I ask for your cooperation for the time being.”
“There is no problem anywhere. The administration will actively look for areas to help.”
Semiconductor alliance led by the United States.
In modern civilization, semiconductors have been used in so many places that they are called industrial rice.
China’s semiconductor imports exceed $400 billion a year.
The US was pressuring China’s growth with semiconductor equipment companies and technological superiority.
How satisfying would it be to build a factory in the United States, as it is the same as actively participating in the semiconductor alliance?
“Then will the name of the company be Earth Semiconductor?”
“I think it will be Earth Electronics. Because we plan to make various non-semiconductor products.”
“I saw the news that a friend had acquired LK’s smartphone division. That’s a really good thing.”
The sincerity of what President Biden calls a friend feels much deeper.
There is nothing as reliable as a friend with a lot of money.
President Biden shook an empty beer bottle.
“I want to drink more beer after talking with a good friend.”
“I’ll get you a cold beer from the fridge.”
There were many delicious beers in the fridge.
You shouldn’t take Qingdao to President Biden.
President Biden stood up with a smile.
“Can you? Would you like to go out into the street and have a drink?”
“Are you serious? President?”
The security of the San Francisco area in the middle of the night was not as safe as in Korea.
Of course, well over a hundred escorts will move, including the secret service and my bodyguards.
I wasn’t worried about safety, but there were reporters all around.
It is usually a house where reporters are ambushed, but today even reporters from the White House took their seats.
If President Biden were drinking beer late at night, wouldn’t everyone write a scoop article?
“I want to have a nice drink with a friend. I have to go back to Washington tomorrow, but if I don’t have a morning schedule, I’ll just go for a drink.”
President Biden would not have known the situation, but he was recommending it.
“All right.”
President Biden’s car, a giant limousine called the Beast, took to the streets of San Francisco.
Have a beer with patrons in an old pub, escorted by the police or secret services.
It was around 40 minutes passed.
Knock knock!
Contact via Earth Messenger.
President Biden checked while going to the bathroom.
―Vice President Ahn Myeong-guk: What is going on there?
-Kim Shin: Yes?
―Vice President Ahn Myeong-guk: Are you really drinking beer with President Biden?
Looks like an article has already been published.
These days, it was a world where real-time news broadcasts were made on Earth Channel or YouTube.
-Kim Shin: That’s right.
―Vice President Ahn Myeong-guk: Huh… … . Really great. The Korean reaction is about to be completely turned upside down.
-Kim Shin: How is it?
―Vice President Ahn Myeong-guk: I’m watching real-time broadcasting news on Earth Channel. Everyone is not kidding. Anchors are surprised, and viewers are also surprised. The soup is just filling up.
President Biden came back from the bathroom.
It was late, so I couldn’t stay long, and we had a light joke-mixed conversation.
“Your friend is going to Korea soon, right?”
“Yes, I have booked a plane ticket for today.”
“Ticketing? If it’s CEO Shin Kim, you can go there by private plane.”
A super-rich man who has money but doesn’t use his private jet.
In the United States, private ownership of airplanes was common.
As a building owner, is there room for me to look like a 15-year-old car driving a car?
“So far, most of my business base is in San Francisco, and I think I will have to travel a lot for no reason if I buy a plane.”
As a joke in Korea, they say that if you buy a camping car, you will be happy twice.
Once when you buy and once when you sell.
It’s a joke that I bought it and didn’t use it often, so it became a nuisance.
President Biden laughed.
“It’s worth it since it’s been less than two years since I started the business. When I look at the amazing appearance now, I forget it for a blink. You will be traveling around a lot in the future, so buy a private plane. A Boeing 787 Dreamliner would be fine.”
After searching on my cell phone for a while, I found a fuselage made of carbon fiber, an interior space capable of carrying more than 300 passengers, and a cruising distance from Seoul to New York.
When I searched, it felt like looking at vehicle specifications when buying a car.
Biden drank beer and cracked jokes.
“I’d like to borrow an Air Force One for my friend to ride to Korea.”
It was a joke only an American president could make.

The next day, as expected, articles appeared.
〈President Biden Drinking Late in San Francisco〉
〈By sharing beer with President Biden and Kim Shin at an old pub〉
Newspapers such as the New York Times and the Washington Post devoted considerable space to their articles.
Fox or CNN reported on news programs.
President Biden did not have a high approval rating despite being in the early stages of his term.
There was a limit to the popularity of the younger generation from the beginning due to the old age, and the economic situation was not good due to Corona.
In addition, with the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan, it became a target of criticism.
In the article, I also came out, and there was criticism that President Biden did not take care of state affairs and went to San Francisco to gain popularity among the younger generation.
“Friend, we’ll see you next time.”
“Yes, Mr. President. Then I will go to Washington.”
“haha. It’s good to talk about work, but I’d like to meet you on vacation and have a relaxing time. I hope you enjoy fishing at Camp David.”
President Biden left the mansion with a smile.
Public opinion was agitated over the beer incident last night, but it was all intentional.
‘A politician is a politician.’
President Biden visited San Francisco in succession and created an article.
There will be nothing more thrilling than the reversal of a large-scale investment card with the attention of the media and the public.
The investment announcement had been left to President Biden.
In return, Lee Jong-yeop obtained a huge amount of support, including federal taxes.
It is said that he had an all-night meeting with the White House staff, but it feels like he has reaped more benefits than he thought.
Later that afternoon, an official press conference was held at the White House.
“I made a lot of effort by running myself to attract investment from the United States. I am delighted to be able to announce this amazing result to the public… … .”
President Biden made the announcement himself in the White House press room.
“I would like to inform the public that Shin Kim, CEO of Earth Resources, has confirmed an investment of 50 billion dollars in the future. Earth Resources has invested heavily in content and data centers, but this time, it is investing directly by building a factory that produces electronic products. Despite my efforts and persuasion, it can be said that this was the moment when the strong manufacturing competitiveness of the United States was confirmed.”
Passion and confidence were reflected on President Biden’s face.
Wouldn’t the approval rating go up by a few percentage points if that kind of scene was broadcast on TV?
＜trot! President Biden announces CEO Shin Kim’s $50 billion US investment＞
〈CEO Shin Kim, decides to start an electronics company and invest 50 billion dollars〉
〈Kim Shin, an astronomical amount of investment〉
Articles were all over the press.
“Brother, it’s time to go to Korea.”
“okay. I have to go.”
Korea to visit in time for Jo Soo-ah’s vacation.
Originally, I tried to visit him secretly and surprise him, but that didn’t work.
〈Kim Shin, booking a flight to Korea on August 13th〉
〈Kim Shin booked all first class seats with a large body of guards〉
〈Is the acquisition of the closed LK smartphone division a signal for Korean investment?〉
There were a lot of articles in the Korean media while booking plane tickets.
