Villain’s Economics chapter 90
It’s already been a month since the blue steel was released.
Since then, I have intentionally turned off my attention to the situation in Korea.
Instead, Gaia and the old men were taken out of the lab while people were paying keen attention to Blue Steel’s presentation. I purposely set the venue for the presentation as a place other than the company and Taylor was put in while the agents were following me. It was perfect.
But it was perfect to take it out.
It was a separate matter to adapt the old men to this world.
“It was something I saw in an old movie.”
“It’s real.”
“People dress weird, too.”
“They all dress like that.”
“You’ve been living on this?”
“It’s just delicious.”
“Do you sleep in places like this?”
“If you want a bench, I’ll cover the newspaper.”
I prepared my passport and visa.
I made immigration records.
I even brought him home without a problem, but this is why he’s like an alien falling from the sky.
He stayed at home for a month and set a nail on TV and the Internet to study modern culture first.
“It’s all so primitive.”
“It’s about studying so that you don’t say those things unconsciously. Everything here should be taken for granted.”
“····· Would it be easy?”
“If it doesn’t work, it’s a house arrest.”
“You’re a tough guy.
“Alina will help you.”
“The name is already on my lips.”
“Sure, Alexei.”
Still, he is visiting every day to talk and test his adaptation.
“Michail.”
“Yes.”
“I’m a little late for my answer.”
“······”
“Please access the academic database at Yandex and find a paper on the anaerobic respiration process of hyperthermal bacteria.”
“······”
First, you have to enter the Russian portal Yandex.
And then find the academic DB and access it.
Finally, explore the paper through keyword search.
Anyone who wears a name tag of a researcher in this era will be able to do it as naturally as they breathe. But what about the old men?
I feel awkward about the obvious.
In 300 years, AI would have found everything for you.
“Alina has completely fixed the lab environment, so everything is automatically done if you just search and do most of the work.”
“But why are you making me do this?”
“What if I need to go to another lab?”
“······”
“Depending on the circumstances, you could work on a project with another researcher. You have to get used to all the possibilities.”
After grinding like this, I go for a walk, go to the street basketball, and go grocery shopping. During the day, Gaia drags old people out of town, uses public transportation, and contacts all kinds of cultures.
Thanks to you, I’m getting better than before.
Unless it’s a malicious test, there’s no sense of incompatibility. I didn’t think I’d look weird with anyone in my daily life.
So I prepared a place with my friends.
The atmosphere was good.
“It’s the first time the house is full, right?”
“I’ve never seen a party like this before.”
“I thought the Russians would be hard, but it’s funny.”
“Why did you study English as soon as you came to America when you spoke so well?”
All of my friends like Shadow.
by the way
“Alina, why don’t you just stay here?”
“Alina, share the lab with us.”
“Alina, would you like some coffee?”
“Alina, shall we go for a walk?”
The trap is that Ellie didn’t know that she would snap on Gaia and fall off. It was a sudden change of the guy who was stuck with me when I was drinking coffee, eating, or whatever.
You’ve never had a same-sex friend?
Gaia seems more excited to treat her as if she is handling her older sister without awkwardness.
“So when are you going to start paying for the lab?”
“I’m thinking of joining you next week.”
“Elly will apparently live there.”
“····· It’s good if it suits you.”
Sounds good, right?
I finished one more homework.
Then it’s time to look at the situation in Korea again.

“Who is Professor Kim Sang-yeon?”
“Well, I’ve never heard of it before.”
This is the first time that Rogue has mentioned a specific person in a new material. The peculiarity of the first object mentioned in Rogue’s announcement and the fact that he was a Korean drew people’s attention.
Steel is a key industry.
It affects almost all secondary industries.
If all of the data on Blue Steel’s hardness and manpower announced by Rogue are true (although it can’t be false), it was another new material that would bring a huge aftermath to the industry as a whole.
They used the idea of Koreans to develop such materials and ask for cooperation in the development of blue steel based secondary alloys in the future? It was Rogue’s announcement, not anywhere else, so I had to be excited.
“I found him. He’s the chairman of a private research institute in Wonju.”
“You said you were a professor.”
“I’ve recently dropped my teaching job.”
“I’ll pack up a bunch of people’s money and pick them up.”
“All the companies that have already entered the nation’s steel industry are tentning in front of the institute.”
In fact, not only steel industry officials gathered. Not a single famous conglomerate has applied for interviews with Professor Kim Sang-yeon, and many people have come from abroad.
What if it is clear that the institute will work with Rogue in the development of secondary alloys? What if I could take a step? It is a connection with Rogue, who has never conducted joint research with an outside company or research institute.
What other new material do you expect?
Even though it is not necessarily a study on alpha iron, there have been a lot of inquiries about what projects are currently underway in the research center.
It was when Wonju, with a population of less than 400,000 people, emerged as the hottest place in Korea. An honorary professor at a famous university in Seoul issued an unexpected statement.
[Rogue’s announcement that the idea of using alpha iron material started from Professor Kim Sang-yeon is not true.]
People were confused by the claim that the owner of the idea was not Professor Kim Sang-yeon but himself.
It’s true. There’s a thesis, too.
Is that senior professor’s thesis?
– Yeah, it’s been almost 20 years since I released it.
So Rogue was mistaken.
Any idea theft?
– No. Rogue bought back what went through Daejeong Steel and went over to the U.S. in the first place.
Then there’s no way you’ve been mistaken.
Why can’t you be mistaken?
– Companies are checking carefully to see if any patents are caught. If you nod, you’ll get hit by reparations as a percentage of sales.
Then who’s wrong?
Someone’s lying on one side.
The controversy was escalating.
He defended senior professor’s claim in the mainstream academic community.
[······ professor has a record of discussing how to use the idea with other professors in academia before presenting the paper.]
But Rogue didn’t announce any position. There was no problem with the exercise of intellectual property rights because they obtained rights to papers through due process.
The problem is that the senior professor was a member of the social leadership who claimed that the cause of China’s economic sanctions against Korea was in Rogue. The professor persisted, saying that Rogue’s distortion was very malicious.
Rogue intentionally distorted the facts to screw up the Korean people who are attacking him?
– An interesting article just came out.
What is it?
Professor Kim Sang-yeon and Professor Jung Sung-ha from university.
Really?
Jung-ha was at Wonju Research Institute.
Wow! Then Jung Sung Ha was a bully.
Rogue, I think he’s trying to get the professor off the list who taught him.
But that doesn’t make sense either, was it necessary to reveal the name of the owner of the idea when you announced the Blue Steel? If I hadn’t revealed it, I wouldn’t have had this controversy.
I was trying to get him on the plane.
How’d that article go on the portal?
I just said the fact. Can I cut it?
You’re a real thug except for the fact that you’re at a disadvantage.
Anyway, the Rogue attackers are excited now. There’s even a human who bets this as defamation.
Is this a libel suit?
You’re naive. Once you’ve filed a lawsuit, you’ve got firewood to chew Rogue. Throughout the litigation.
Professor Kim Sang-yeon was also reading the article.
It’s a shame, but he was a student who didn’t even remember his face properly. The student had to apply for a difficult major ahead of graduation, so he tested it as a subject.
I still remember.
Spin transfer using organic molecules was the topic.
He showed me his thesis because he thought he would allow me to take the course just by understanding the rough outline, and he came up with a completely new interpretation.
Instead of letting them listen to lectures that must be a waste of time, they brought them to Wonju Research Center and gave them a chance. Of course, I didn’t expect any special results from just one semester of research. Since he is a talented student, he just made a bait with the intention of leading his career path to research rather than employment.
But that was also a shame.
Victor’s owner, who’s already 11% additive, tried to intervene in his career.
Victor isn’t the only one who put it out.
It has turned the world upside down for the past three years.
So I was proud of his growth even though I didn’t help him at all, and I looked for his name when I heard the news.
When Victor found out why he couldn’t come out of Korea, he was so angry at the behavior of Daejeong. When Minus announced his announcement, he saw a video of him verbally speaking to members of an environmental group, and even clapped his tongue.
But what’s going on all of a sudden?
I had no idea that his idea, which had already been taken away 20 years ago, would pop out of Rogue. It’s his fault.
Thanks to him, he became a celebrity overnight, but this time, a professor who stole his past ideas refuted. Contrary to Rogue’s announcement, he said it was his idea.
“Mr. Chairman, are you just going to be watching?”
He was research director Kang Se-ho.
He is the one who knows the most about Daejeong Energy and Jung Sung-ha and told the deep inside only after the mysterious video spread.
“Well, I’m thinking about it.”
“Isn’t it your chance to restore your honor?”
“It’s already been 20 years. What’s the difference?”
“You’re so brazen to claim it was your idea to bury it. The professor stole his student paper and wrote a paper and buried the protesting student. Let’s take this opportunity to change the climate.”
“Will it ever change?”
It’s been a problem so many times.
He embezzled research funds from graduate students in his laboratory and swapped his thesis author. But even if it’s noisy, it’s only then. Their cartels were rocks that couldn’t be crushed with eggs.
“Look at them doing it because they don’t change it.”
“······”
“Even China’s economic sanctions against South Korea are due to Rogue. Rather, I’m defending China.”
“They are definitely the ones who will attack our researchers if I break the silence. Do you think they only have connections in academia? There are companies and government-related ministries. It will also damage those who have already left the lab.”
Also, Kim Sung-yeon was not the only problem.
“If they’re from our research center, they’re already wearing scarlet letters. What difference do you think it would make if the chairman was silent? Chairman, do you have any evidence to prove your past paper?”
Evidence?
It’s overflowing.
The opponent knows that Kim Sung-yeon has evidence.
But where did the confidence to claim it was his idea come from? It all stems from the idea that researchers at the Wonju Institute were held hostage.
From now on, it may bother people who have left Wonju Research Center and have established themselves separately, whether it is a company or a university. Their cartel has the power to do that. They need no further explanation for pushing themselves out of the podium recently.
You still have to break the silence?
“You do, you do, don’t you?”
It was time for Kang Se-ho to hurry.
Jeeing-
It’s an unfamiliar number.
What’s more, overseas calls?
I got it thinking it was ridiculous.
– Professor Kim Sangyeon, this is Jung Sungha.
These premonitions are never missed.

a press interview
I watched as much as I could on TV.
He also has experience in lectures and lectures.
I thought there was no particular reason to be nervous.
However, dozens of cameras flashing flash and hundreds of people paying attention were far from the lecture. He has to detonate a bomb in front of so many people. It’s because of the bold student.
– Rogue will take responsibility for anyone who will be harmed by the professor’s presentation. How about Rogue Korea Research Institute?
– Or you can set up a new company. It’s a subsidiary of Rogue and can accommodate anyone who wants it.
I don’t know if it was 3 years ago, but I’m not an egg right now. If you think it’s necessary, you can take over the university foundation altogether.
Three years ago, the clumsy man urged even the firm cartel of Korean society to be seen as ridiculous and not to hesitate.
Professor Kim Sang-yeon. What are you planning to announce at today’s press conference? Are you going to reveal who is the original owner of the idea of using alpha iron is?”
While hesitating for a moment, a hot-tempered reporter suddenly asked a question. First question at the press conference.
However, it is much easier to make up my mind after hearing that question, which is quite deliberate.
“Of course that’s part of the announcement.”
“Does that mean Professor Jeon Hyung-in is the original owner of the idea?”
“The reporter should learn manners before attending the press conference.”
“····· What?”
“Is it polite to ask questions out of the blue before the press conference even begins?” If that’s the policy of your press, please leave. I have no intention of holding a press conference with such media.”
The expression crumples violently.
What kind of novel does that reporter write?
It’s always like that.
It is very difficult to turn the media into enemies in Korean society.
If Rogue had not taken control of the two major portals, public opinion would have known Kim Sung-yeon and Rogue as thieves by now. It happened once or twice.
It was the media that framed the perpetrator and published articles to impose social punishment in advance. I don’t even worry about the fact that the relationship will be overturned afterwards. If it weren’t for Rogue, I think this press conference would be meaningful.
“The first thing I’m going to talk about is an e-mail from 20 years ago between Professor Jeon Hyung-in and me.”
But now there is no reason to hesitate.
