Kim Tae-jeong's story was well-known. Graduating from the Department of Electrical Engineering at Korea University, he teamed up with his fellow alumni to develop a Korean-style word processor. However, Kim Tae-jeong transferred all program rights to others and went back to graduate school. Later, while working at Daehyeon Information Technology, he received financial support from his father to establish TJ Soft. To grow TJ Soft, which started as an office software development company, CEO Kim…-

The hospital room was dark with only enough light seeping through the doorway to make out vague shapes. "W-what? Who's there?" Despite his startled question to the figure pinning him down the man remained silent. Seo Jae-hoon struggled trying to push the man away with his unbound arm but couldn't budge him an inch. Ignoring the resistance the man pulled out a thick rope from his coat and looped it around Seo Jae-hoon's neck. "Is nobody out there?!" Seo Jae-hoon called out desperately but no answer or…

On a pitch-black night Hong Seok-gi woke up in an abandoned factory in Gyeonggi Province. After being unconscious for quite some time he immediately surveyed his surroundings upon regaining consciousness. "Where am I?" His eyes widened as he searched his memories. He remembered being attacked by assailants right as he opened his door after leaving Il-sung Hospital. They must have been waiting inside his home. Hong Seok-gi gritted his teeth when he realized his body was tied to a chair and…

I shook off the daze from the shocking news. Then I asked Manager Ma again. "Seo Jae-hoon tried to take his own life? That can't be true. Please explain in detail." "He apparently hanged himself with a towel in his solitary confinement cell. Fortunately, the guard discovered him quickly, so his life isn't in danger. He hasn’t woken up yet, though." "There are no other inmates who had contact with Seo Jae-hoon, right?" "No. As you ordered, he's been completely isolated." Loneliness is the most…

News about Wanda Group erupted across all newspapers and broadcasts owned by Murdoch's News Corporation. The simultaneous barrage of news shook public opinion. Articles poured out not just from reputable papers but even from tabloids little better than gossip rags. "What's going on here? What is all this? Did you know nothing about this?" China was a country that placed great importance on saving face. Jiang Zemin's expression had hardened into stone at these scandalous reports spreading in foreign…

Using barbarians to catch barbarians - that's the strategy. This is the plan I've devised. Getting the Princelings and Shanghai faction to keep each other in check. That alone will reduce the pressure on Hu Jintao. The last binder I gave contained tomorrow's front-page stories set to run in Murdoch's newspapers. They planned to run feature stories exposing various allegations about Chairman Wang Jianlin and suspicious money flows. "...These will run in American and British papers…

As I got closer to the filming location, the noise began to intensify. This shouldn't be happening on a normal drama set. In a controlled environment, only the actors' voices should be heard. "Do you know what's going on...?" Just as I was about to give Manager Ma instructions, an unbelievable sight caught my eye. Men wielding axes and knives were threatening the filming staff. Just in case, the bodyguards assigned to Cheon Ji-young were in a standoff with them. Both sides had already sustained…

The documents Manager Ma brought contained extensive details about Zhou Yongkang. I silently read through the contents spread across several pages. "What an interesting character." I tossed the documents onto the table with a smirk. "What do you mean sir?" "There are many suspicious aspects. Someone with no prior record suddenly gets appointed as Minister of Land and Resources in 1998 then keeps getting promoted. Before long he becomes the top figure in national security. Take a look." Following my…

I wondered what choice Ma Huateng would make. If he chose the first option he could cleanly settle his shares and partner with Alibaba to create a rival company. Of course it wouldn't be easy to take over the messenger market that Tencent already dominated. But being in the early stages they could still try something and I was confident. With Alibaba's new online shopping platform quality gaming services and Jack Ma's capabilities they could definitely win. The second choice would be more troublesome.…

When I returned to the meeting room, I sensed something was off. The atmosphere felt strangely tense. Jiang Zidong looked irritated, while Ma Huateng wore a serious expression. "Do you need more time to coordinate your opinions?" I paused at the entrance and asked the two of them. "Oh, no. Please continue your conversation," Jiang Zidong said, forcing a smile as he waved his hand dismissively. "Then I’ll take a seat." We sat facing each other again. Manager Ma stood firmly behind me, just like…
