Go Young-man, head of the Korea Group, defeats Jo Gi-han, 9th Dan… Shock in the Go world.

An unprecedented upset has occurred in the world of Go. Go Young-man (76), the head of the Go Group known as the honorary amateur 6th dan, shocked the entire Go world by winning a 137-move game against professional 9th dan player Jo Gi-han (31).

This match was not a simple friendly match. If Chairman Ko Young-man wins, he will be recognized by the Korea Baduk Association and become a professional player, and for Jo Gi-han, 9th Dan, a victory bonus of 2 billion won is at stake.

The impact was even greater because Jo Gi-han 9-dan must have put his heart and soul into it. No one could have predicted that Jo Gi-han 9-dan, a legend in the world of Go who has won international competitions seven times, would lose.

After the match, 9th Dan Cho “ seemed to let his guard down a bit, thinking that his opponent was an amateur.”, but “, it is certain that the chairman’s skills are at the level of a professional player.”, he revealed his feelings.

(syncopation)

Baduk experts could not hide their surprise at this result, saying, “Unbelievable result”. One expert said, “Chairman Ko Young-man’s energy was like watching the prime of his career as a Korean teacher.”, and evaluated, “His skills are something you cannot help but acknowledge”. The president of the Korea Baduk Association expressed his expectations, saying, “This is an impressive case that will bring a breath of fresh air to the world of Baduk”.

Meanwhile, a conspiracy theory is spreading in the Baduk community that Chairman Koh Young-man used illegal AI or some kind of cheating, such as ““Chairman Koh Young-man clearly used illegal Baduk AI” “He seems to be possessed by a ghost like the ghost Baduk king. It doesn’t make sense for an amateur to beat a professional”,” and the police have launched an investigation.

Chairman Koh Young-man’s side warned that this was a completely groundless rumor and that appropriate measures would be taken against those who spread such rumors.

Reporter Kim Hyung-min, Pyongyang Ilbo

Tuesday, November 3rd.

The world was in an uproar.

There is no other reason. It is because of our Chairman Koh Young-man.

It is only natural that a shocking incident occurred where an amateur defeated a 9th-dan professional.

“You are amazing, our chairman. You are shaking up the Republic of Korea with baduk.”

Even people who don’t know much about Baduk know roughly how big the gap is between Baduk professionals and amateurs.

So this incident spread even more shockingly.

It’s even on the main news, so what more is there to say?

“But what about the kid who said he was possessed by a ghost?”

Is it sharp?

“Tsk tsk. You don’t care about your life and say such truthful things. This Republic of Korea, you know, is a country that even has a crime of defamation by stating facts. Where are you talking about.”

Moreover, the opponent is Chairman Koh Young-man… .

This is an event that even I can’t handle.

Go well.

While I was praying for the soul of an unknown community member, Su-ah approached me.

“Master, these are the secretary candidates sent by Prestige. I have roughly selected them, but I think it would be better for you to decide on the team leaders.”

“Oh.”

The total size of my secretarial staff that will be restored to Prestige is said to be roughly 100 people.

Of course, there are 100 secretaries, but the number of people who do chores or actually take action under them is much higher.

“Were there 4 team leaders?”

“Yes. Each team is divided into a protocol team, security team, strategy team, and execution team, and consists of one team leader and two deputy team leaders. According to protocol rules, one team leader from each team is required to stay by the owner’s side.”

“… The names are all similar. What’s the difference?”

“The protocol team is-,”

“Ah, I didn’t ask. I was just talking to myself.”

Su-ah closes her mouth again and brings her hands and legs together.

Her pretty, well-groomed legs stand out today.

‘… We should prepare a seat for our Aram (the female protagonist) in advance.’

“The Protocol Team Leader position will be left vacant for now. We will appoint someone after Seo A-ram’s training is over.”

“Yes.”

“And the rest….”

I went through each file carefully and thought about it.

They are all women with impressive careers and qualifications, and they have nothing lacking in terms of face, body, or height, so I chose them even more carefully.

Seo A-ram, the deputy team leader of the protocol team, chose two people who were as tall as models and had slender legs.

The security team leader and deputy team leader were appointed based on their physical strength and healthy brown skin, while the strategy team and execution team were appointed based on their qualifications.

Well, it doesn’t really have any special meaning, I just want to choose according to the image.

“Okay. Let’s do this.”

“Yes.”

“And you said there were 100 secretaries in total?”

“Yes.”

“Hmm… . I guess the secretary line will be finished by this Saturday?”

“Maybe.”

“Let’s go to Prestige headquarters on Saturday. Let’s go and check up on Aram and give some Pochi to the secretaries. I’ll give 3,000 to the team leader, 2,000 to the deputy team leader, and 1,000 to the general secretary, so take out the cash and put it in an envelope.”

“Your master.”

“Just give 500 to all the employees under the secretary.”

“Yes.”

Loyalty is something that can be bought with money.

You have to start throwing money at them from the beginning before they bow their heads properly and say, ‘Ah, this person is my master.’

“How far has the artificial island come?”

“Almost there. They say it’s near Baekryeong Island.”

“Oh… Then, since you’re going to receive that, you can also come up with a prison land acquisition plan and a prison construction plan, right?”

“Yes. There will be some bottlenecks in transferring the name of the artificial island to the special correction corporation, but it won’t be a big problem.”

The prison puzzle is slowly coming together.

Now it’s time to just get evaluated.

“As soon as we arrive at the artificial island, we will call in technicians to get advice and come up with a plan to build a prison.”

“Yes, Master.”

“Once the plan is complete, don’t wait for approval after review and start construction right away. It will be approved anyway.”

You wouldn’t give permission unless you were crazy, right?

Who is doing it?

“Let’s talk to Korea Military and Korea Medical in advance and negotiate for moving in. Those two companies need to be there for the inmates to use it as they please.”

“Then wouldn’t it be better to include chemistry as well?”

“Oh, I see. Once you have the secretary, talk things through and come up with a strategy.”

“Yes.”

So now what is going on again… .

“How much land was purchased for Namdong Industrial Complex?”

“… Sorry, we are still in the process of finding the landowner.”

“How much do you think it would cost to buy all of that?”

I was briefed before that it would cost approximately 280 billion won based on 100,000 won per person, but the more I think about it, the more ridiculous the amount seems.

“Honestly, isn’t 100 billion too much? It’s just a piece of shit that can’t be used right now, and if you want to use it, you have to push out the gangs that are illegally occupying it, but anything more than that is too much… .”

“Hmm.”

My goal is to purchase all the land in Namdong Industrial Complex and talk to Namdong-gu to extract various benefits and support.

But if you talk about this with Namdong-gu, the word will inevitably leak out.

Then the owners will think that it is right and try to raise the land price.

So, inevitably, after acquiring all the land, we have to compete with Namdong-gu.

It will probably take about two months for Moo-yeol Finance to pass the review, so I hope it can be resolved within that time.

‘Should I leave it to Soo-ah properly?’

He has a lot of work to do, but it’ll probably be a little easier once the secretary’s office is re-established.

And Su-ah is my number one fuck buddy, my closest confidant, and my first experience with her, so I need to treat her to some extent.

Here, treatment means monetary compensation.

‘It’s been almost three months since we started seeing each other, so I think it’s time to give you something big.’

But if you just give in to it, it can become a bad habit, as you might think.

I don’t want that.

“Director Im Soo-ah.”

“Yes, yes??”

She straightens her spine at the unfamiliar title.

“The budget you mentioned is 100 billion. Let’s solve it within that.”

“… .”

“As soon as possible.”

“Okay, I understand.”

She stuttered a little.

I guess they didn’t know that the budget would be finalized as is.

“Instead, it ends up being less than a trillion won? You can take the rest.”

“!!!”

“I don’t ask about the means and methods. Just bring all the land documents of Namdong Industrial Complex to me.”

“Is it true, Master?”

“Are you doubting me now?”

“Oh, no. Sorry. I’ll try harder!!”

“Start next week. There’s still a lot of work to be done this week. Once the secretariat is formed, then we’ll start in earnest.”

“Yes!!”

She answers very energetically.

Looks like you have confidence.

‘You said I don’t have to choose the means and methods… Are you just going to kill them and take them?’

Considering that he was able to blow the head off the prosecutor’s investigator without any hesitation and was prepared to kill all of his team members in the event of an emergency, it’s quite possible that that’s actually true.

They go to the landlord, don’t even tell him the price, just kill him, and then just stamp the owner’s name and bring it to him.

Of course, if you do that to the back, it’s usually a mess.

Only a company as big as the Korea Group can do something like that.

“Have you figured out the Nokonoko Girls’ route?”

“Yes. We are all ready to go.”

“Okay. Then… . Is it going to happen tonight?”

“Yes.”

“I’ll be waiting.”

“I will never disappoint you, Master.”

+++

After finishing their tough schedule, the members of Nokonoko Girls boarded the van and were all exhausted and slumped on the seats.

The forced march that lasted nearly a month exhausted even those who were in good physical shape.

“It’s so hard… .”

“I feel like I’m going to die… .”

“I really just want to sleep comfortably for 5 hours… .”

Since we were close friends from the beginning, we used to chat about various topics, but these days, we do that less.

Because I wanted to get some more rest and sleep for even just a minute more.

But there is a topic that goes beyond even that.

“But we… . Are we really only doing this until this week?”

Everyone else raised their heads at the words of the member who did the gyaru girl concept.

“My family is so happy right now… . Honestly, I wonder if it’s the right time to go to the US… .”

The tone was faint, but the meaning was clear.

I don’t want to leave.

I want to stay and continue to be active.

That’s right, what they’ve achieved now may be a golden opportunity that may never come again in their lives.

But is it really right to just throw this away and run away?

Even if you debut in the US, there are language barriers, differences in tastes, and other differences, so there is no guarantee that you will be successful to this extent.

“Why can’t you just give up your body and keep going??”
