Chapter 76: No More Questions (1)

Is this some sort of joke? That young man is the major shareholder?

Having 51% of the shares implies investing billions!

The shareholders reactions towards Ryu Min were remarkably consistent.

They regarded him with suspicion, some even clenched their fists as if grappling with disbelief.

The abrupt transition from obscurity to the helm of the company had certainly left them bewildered.

First, allow me to elucidate the industry shift were considering

As Ryu Min began to explain the business idea as he did with Ma Gyeong-rok., the shareholders eyes widened in response.

Hes planning to create a social open e-market for players?

Isnt that only primarily beneficial for players?

Is he planning to change the companys name to Player Place?

F*uck, what kind of naming sense is this?

Complaints simmered beneath the surface, yet none were vocalized.

In the face of numerous onlookers, Ryu Min exercised restraint.

Internally, Ryu Min couldnt help but smile at the brewing discontent.

Yes, its undoubtedly frustrating. After all, these shareholders are not players.

The attendees represented a diverse age range, spanning from their 30s to their 60s.

They were all ordinary individuals because the younger generation of players had largely abstained from stock investments.

In a situation where one might face life-threatening challenges in the next round, long-term stock investments seem futile.

If they needed funds, they either sought to utilize their own skills or resorted to gambling.

Some players present were enticed by the temptation of criminal activities.

With a few robberies, they can easily obtain what they desire.

What is there to be afraid of when your life is at stake?

Given the choice, many would opt for prison over the uncertainties of the next Round.

Thats precisely the issue. In the eyes of ordinary citizens, players are often seen as instigators of social unrest.

They were essentially viewed as potential criminals.

Hence, it was natural for skepticism to arise when someone proposed creating a market website for players.

Now, that concludes my explanation. Ill be happy to address any questions. If anyone has inquiries

Before Ryu Min could finish his sentence, hands shot up throughout the room.

In response to the eager gestures, Ryu Min couldnt suppress a wry smile.

It appears theres a considerable degree of discontent.

Ryu Min cleared his throat and proceeded to answer each question with composure.

Whose idea is it to change the perfectly fine industry?

Its my idea.

Whats your intention behind changing the industry? Do you anticipate the companys downfall?

Is there any CEO who wishes for their company to fail? Its a change aimed at growing the company further.

Do you have solid evidence that changing the industry will be successful? Arent you just assuming the players will want to use this platform? Who says they will accept this idea?

They will find it very handy, and if a few decide not to use it, they will just fall behind. Gentlemen, if the company grows, wouldnt it be good for the shareholders here? You will receive higher dividends.

What are you going to do if you try for nothing and the company goes bankrupt? Cant you just be satisfied with consulting?

Im sorry, but I cant be satisfied with just consulting. Consulting is not viable. Moreover, the era of players is coming in the future. Changing the industry is for that reason. We need to adapt to the trend.

Despite the onslaught of inquiries, he remained unfazed, responding to each query methodically.

As he continued, the frequency of questions gradually dwindled.

Are there any further inquiries?

The once turbulent atmosphere had now transformed into silence.

What more is there to ask?

It seems weve covered most ground

While he may be young, hes certainly not flustered.

While the shareholders were surprised, the most astonished person was Ma Kyung-rok, who had been observing from the sidelines.

Whats going on? Is this really the same prophet I know? The atmosphere feels subtly different

I thought he was just a naive kid, but surprisingly, hes quite bold.

But today, hes truly impressive.

Indeed, todays display of resilience in the face of criticism was rather astonishing.

To answer every question amidst a barrage of complaints required a remarkable degree of composure.

Its difficult to believe hes just 20 years old.

For a moment, Ma Kyung-rok reminisced about his own life at the age of 20.

Comparing his past to Ryu Mins composure, these were undeniably less mature times.

If only I couldve handled situations as calmly at 20 I mightve earned my fathers recognition and taken my place as the successor.

An unexpected awkwardness swept over him, but this was the shareholders assembly, after all. Ma Kyung-rok quickly regained his composure.

Ladies and gentlemen, if there are no objections, we shall proceed with the vote.

For a special resolution to pass, the affirmative votes needed to surpass 67%.

With Ryu Min holding 51% and Ma Kyung-rok holding 20%, their approval alone guaranteed the resolutions passage.

In reality, there was no need to solicit other shareholders opinions.

However, holding a shareholders meeting and discussing it with the shareholders served primarily for diplomatic reasons.

Is there anyone opposed to the change in industry and company name?

With a smile, Ma Kyung-rok declared the results.

As there are no opposing votes, I announce that the proposal has passed with 100% approval.

Thump, thump, thump

Ma Kyung-rok concluded by tapping his gavel.

Though they had voted in favor, the shareholders couldnt hide their unease. They hadnt raised their hands reluctantly; they had wanted to oppose it.

But Ryu Min understood.

In a few months, these people will be thankful they didnt sell their stocks. Theyll be celebrating a remarkable success.

Indeed, everyone would be cheering for the companys soaring success.

Now, with this, we conclude the shareholders meeting. Thank you to all the shareholders who attended.

With Ma Kyung-roks closing remarks, the shareholders began to leave, one by one.

During this time, Ma Kyung-rok approached Ryu Min.

Major Shareholder, well done. You handled it with confidence, and there wasnt a hint of nervousness.

Haha I practiced for various scenarios at home, which seems to have paid off.

In truth, he hadnt practiced at all, but his recent speech had somewhat softened Ma Kyung-roks guard.

Is that so? You certainly did well.

Regardless, it seems to have been resolved.

Yes. Now, all that remains is to create the website and build the system as soon as possible.

Ill leave that part entirely to you, Mr. Ma.

Of course. Major Shareholder, focus on surviving the next round without any worries.

It appeared Ma Kyung-rok was concerned because the Prophet class appeared weak.

I guess hes worried that if something happens to me, he wont receive any more prophecies, but

Well, Ma Kyung-rok had nothing to worry about.

Would you like to have lunch together at the hotel?

Yes, sounds good.

Ryu Min smiled and followed Ma Kyung-rok.

With this, todays tasks were completed.

Now, theres only one thing left. How to use Hwang Yong-min.

Ryu Min, lost in thought about how to use him, wore a broad smile.
