Chapter 379
Chapter 379 Ruinous Riches (1)
Arfandia, where millions of videos are uploaded every day.
Numerous streamers struggling to survive in the harsh jungle where they are quickly buried and weeded out even if they do not upload a video for just a week.
Videos containing all kinds of stimulating and extraordinary content that attract people's attention were pouring out every day, but even so, a huge wall that they could never overcome stood firm and boasted its majesty.
The highest-grade risk channel watched and paid attention to by all employees of Arcadia Co., Ltd.
Destroyer's routine.
A channel that boasts a devastating influence where literally each video completely overturns the entire game. A home-breaking channel with a global reputation that has ruinous levels of subscribers and at least billions of views when a single video is uploaded.
Now that it has changed to the official channel of the MCN company called Iplus, the color has faded considerably, but the ripple effect of the videos uploaded here is so enormous that it is impossible to dare to compare it with other channels.
That's why Dex's video uploaded on such an outstanding channel literally spread all over the world as soon as it was uploaded. And those who saw the contents of the video showed the same reaction as if they had made a promise.
-4 billion gold... sold...?
-Wow..... that's all gold right now...?
-What on earth did you sell so much gold...?
The habitat of the ancient dragon Cervenian, whose body length reached several hundred meters. So, although the scale of his rare was huge beyond imagination, the amount of gold filling it was also astronomical to the naked eye.
It's not an exaggeration, it's a sea of gold stretched to the point where it wouldn't be strange to swim inside. Boasting a transcendent wealth that goes beyond common sense, he was talking to everyone as if it was nothing by maximizing visual direction in the video.
[I have already sold 4 billion gold..... I plan to dispose of the remaining 4.6 billion gold as well.] A
huge amount has already been robbed of the market, and more is expected to be released. And at those words, a thought passed through the heads of those who still had the gold in their hands.
‘It's X...!'
A preview video of the massive amount of bombs that were uploaded during maintenance when gold could neither be sold nor bought.
And information about the video began to spread uncontrollably all over the world through numerous media and news articles.
- Urgent Breaking News. Announcement of 4.6 Billion Gold Drops by Super-Giant Whale.
- Virtual currency investors in panic. When is the inspection time?
- What is the fair price of gold? The dark side of virtual currency stained with speculation.
- Cryptocurrency market in chaos. What is Arcadia's official position?
The whole world immediately plunged into colossal chaos. While everyone was running around trying to find out the authenticity of the information, CEO Lee Mi-yeon was greeted by executive director Kwon Myeong-han and manager Yang Han-seok, who came to see her with a very calm face and contemplation.
“The president of the company is in trouble. The video uploaded to Arpendia right now...”
The two of them were so excited that they couldn't even connect properly. However, CEO Lee Mi-yeon nodded her head calmly as if she already knew everything.
“I know. Everything is going as planned, so both of you, calm down.”
“yes....?”
“What do you mean by that...”
The two of them looked dumbfounded for a moment when President Lee Mi-yeon said that it was all planned. And then, with a shocked face, he asked again.
“Wait a minute. You mean right now as planned...?”
“If you’re asking if I deliberately caused this situation, you’re right. Strictly speaking, it wasn't my idea, but... I had no choice but to agree because there was no clearer way to do it. It’s true that I knew it was going to turn out this way anyway.”
“...?”
“...?”
Executive Director Myung-Han Kwon and Manager Han-Seok Yang are frozen in shock. To those two, President Lee Mi-yeon said with a slightly apologetic expression, as if telling them not to be sad.
“Because security is so important, I couldn't tell the two of them separately. I hope you don't feel too sad about that. If someone in the company knew about it in advance, it could actually make things more complicated.”
President Lee Mi-yeon, who did not tell any of the employees of Arcadia Co., Ltd. about the secret meeting (?) with a secret friend. However, the two were not very upset about that fact. Rather, it seemed that he was relieved that he was glad he didn't know.
“I understand that, sir.”
“Rather than that... what the hell is that user called Dex? How can one user have 8.6 billion gold?”
“oh. Don’t you know about Dex?”
“Yes..... I think I've heard the name a few times, but I don't know exactly.....” ”
Well... anyway, I need to tell you a little bit about this situation.”
CEO Lee Mi-yeon called out Alice with a grin as if she had asked a good question. And soon, the large TV in the president's office turned on, and information related to Dex soon appeared.
“This user is the main culprit that caused the Beilan incident in the past and is the first user to hunt a dragon.”
“yes....? Then this user was then...?”
“Well... it wasn't the traditional, normal way of hunting that we think. It was almost a buggy play, but the responsibility for that part is a little vague, and there are a lot of things that are difficult to take issue with, so let's move on.”
At the same time, President Lee Mi-yeon glanced at the executive director who recommended it. Then, to see if there was anything stung, Executive Director Kwon Myeong-han clears his throat, showing a clear expression of discomfort.
“Anyway, in the dragon hunt at that time, the user succeeded in attacking with 100% contribution. Therefore, a very abnormal situation occurred where one user monopolized all the rewards.”
Originally, hundreds of thousands of organizations would have gathered together to attack, and the rewards would have been torn and scattered among hundreds of thousands of people. However, when the enormous wealth was concentrated on only one person due to the bamboo spear, this absurd situation occurred.
“So you're saying that you've just kept the rewards you got from hunting dragons and started to dispose of them? Not through the auction house, but through transactions with NPCs...?”
“yes. Fortunately, the user in question has been of great help to the top of the pie, which is rising these days. So, they mobilized the distribution network and capabilities of the upper tier of the pie to sell all kinds of expensive artifacts and items. I didn't expect it to be this ruthless... but in the end, I vomited my spirit to secure an enormous amount of gold, 8.6 billion gold.”
Jae-young, who has gone far beyond what President Lee Mi-yeon thinks. As a result, she was also dizzy as she grasped the data, but she was giving up almost to the level of giving up halfway because she couldn't stop him by scolding him for doing too much for faithfully carrying out the work she asked in the first place.
“Why would you even do that...?”
When executive director Kwon Myung-han asked why he was doing this all of a sudden, CEO Lee Mi-yeon answered calmly.
“That's what I asked for.”
“yes....?”
“...?”
At that moment, the inside of the office was frozen in silence.
However, President Lee Mi-yeon muttered with a fishy smile on her face with a slightly chilly face.
“Why would you? To fuck you a fucking x -pups that are playing with gold prices. ”
“What is that...?”
The Chinese government does not stop this madness and proceeds to ruin despite its own warnings. While he is trying to spread Arcadia and virtual reality by cooperating fairly with governments around the world, CEO Lee Mi-yeon could no longer tolerate those who kept making all sorts of nasty and dirty tricks and spoiling his work.
“Aren’t you kidding me about making a profit by raising the price of gold as much as possible? So I made it so that I could never benefit from it.”
“.....”
The two of them were speechless and froze at those words. However, President Lee Mi-yeon said with a coy smile as if it went well.
“I rather like this situation. The 4 billion gold that has already been released and the 4.6 billion gold that will be additionally released are not obtained through transactions between users, but rather obtained by extracting gold from NPCs. If all of this is released to the market, the total amount of gold itself will increase several times more than before, so a price drop is inevitable and the Chinese government will now suffer astronomical losses no matter how desperately it tries.”
CEO Lee Mi-yeon talks with a genuine chatter as if she feels good just thinking about it. And the two people who looked at her were convinced by Lee Mi-yeon's last words.
“You don’t know what to say? Even if the favor is forgotten, the grudge will be repaid a hundredfold?”
‘Such crazy.....'
‘This kind of person is the general manager.....'
The fact that their direct superior and the best head who leads the company is more than an idiot beyond imagination.
“In conclusion, through this event, the market value of gold will go down stably. Perhaps after the maintenance, the price may drop a lot due to the panic cell in the beginning, but gradually it will balance to a normal price range under Ellis's contemplation. The Chinese government will weep and shed bloody tears.”
The Chinese government dropped a secret fund worth 1,500 trillion won to stop Jae-young from dropping the bomb. There was no chance that they would make up for the loss. That's why Lee Mi-yeon, the president of the company, seemed to be afraid of the huge storm that would blow in the future, and looked at the two people with dead faces and said not to worry.
“I plan to take responsibility for the Chinese government and branch offices, so don’t worry too much about them. Executive Director Myung-Han Kwon takes a look at the users’ public sentiment and reactions from the media, and Manager Yang Han-Seok, please consult well with the financial authorities of each country to ensure that the gold-related policies of each country do not turn hostile due to the situation.”
Two people who can't seem to see anything because they don't know how the hell to explain this to the public. However, CEO Lee Mi-yeon briefly called Yang Han-seok, who was turning around, to stop him and asked as if he had forgotten.
“Ah, by any chance, we had a discussion with the National Tax Service on how to deal with the tax issue related to gold exchange?”
“You mean the IRS...?”
Yang Han-seok, manager of the department, pondered for a moment about the final discussion regarding tax collection when gold was exchanged for cash. And he soon gave the answer.
“Basically, we agreed that all income from acquiring gold and selling it should be considered as other income, such as lottery winnings, unlike general business income. As a result, it was finally decided to withhold 35% of the exchange amount as separate taxation.”
Arcadia, where 35% of the exchange amount is taken away as taxes.
And at those words, President Lee Mi-yeon muttered to herself.
“If 35% of 1500 trillion... 525 trillion...”
“Yes...?”
“it's nothing. Go and work.”
“Okay..... Then, enough.....”
Manager Yang Han-seok left after looking at President Lee Mi-yeon with a strange look. After he left, CEO Lee Mi-yeon muttered in disbelief as she looked at the figures in the report on her monitor.
“Tax alone is 525 trillion won...” Jae
-young, who has already disposed of 4 billion gold, has a whopping 1,500 trillion won. Seeing him having to pay an astronomical amount of 525 trillion won in taxes, President Lee Mi-yeon shook his head with a smile as if it was absurd.
“You were a very patriot.”
The near future after this situation has calmed down.
The National Tax Service and the Ministry of Strategy and Finance received tax-related data from Arcadia Co., Ltd., and all fell backwards with bubbles.
It is because of a person overflowing with patriotism (?) who pays as much as 90% of the national budget of the Republic of Korea in taxes.
