Chapter 100
A few dayster.
Yoo-hyun had lunch with his colleagues.
Min Jung Hyuk, a sales team member, asked him with a worried expression.
“Are you okay these days?”
“What’s wrong with me?”
“Are you always so calm? Or are you just fearless?”
Min Jung Hyuk drank a lot of water as if his mouth was burning at Yoo-hyun’s indifferent reaction.
He knew very well that Assistant Manager Song Ho Chan was after him.
But the person in question looked unfazed, so he didn’t know how to react.
Kwon Se Joon, who was next to him, intervened.
“Hyung, Yoo-hyun didn’t do anything wrong. Why should he be scared?”
“Why would hee all the way here to eat if he’s not scared?”
“Eh, that’s because of you, hyung. I said I was fine anywhere. Right, Yoo-hyun?”
“Well.”
Yoo-hyun smiled faintly when the pork cutlets were ced on each table.
Kwon Se Joon shrugged his shoulders and said.
“Please enjoy your meal.”
“I hope you pass the seminar in one go, bastard. I’ll eat well.”
“It’s all thanks to Yoo-hyun. Hehe.”
Was he always this cheerful?
He couldn’t remember the old Kwon Se Joon who used to be depressed and silent.
He definitely brightened up.
He felt a positive energy from him.
Yoo-hyun was very pleased with his change.
On the other hand, Min Jung Hyuk sighed deeply.
“Ah… I guess I’m really unlucky.”
“Is Assistant Manager Song still like that?”
“Yeah. It’s driving me crazy. It’s worse these days.”
It happened that Min Jung Hyuk’s seminar was right after Song Ho Chan got humiliated by Yoo-hyun.
He was already scary enough, but now he was in a bad mood too.
It was a headache to face him.
There was no way Min Jung Hyuk could handle him.
From Min Jung Hyuk’s perspective, it was a bad situation.
“When I see this, I think it’s right to call him the one-top devil instead of the three devils. The anonymous board said he was a total trash.”
“What about your team’s devil, Seong deputy manager? Is he okay?”
“Yes. Other people curse him a lot, but I don’t really know.”
Yoo-hyun snorted inwardly at Kwon Se Joon’s answer.
‘He’s trash too.’
Would he ever find out?
That Seong Woong Jin deputy manager made him suffer so much that he almost went crazy in the past.
Kwon Se Joon, who didn’t know that, looked at Yoo-hyun.
“Yoo-hyun, is Go deputy manager still quiet these days?”
“Yeah.”
“See, hyung. Except for Assistant Manager Song, the other two are rtively lower in rank.”
Now that he thought about it, Go Jae Yoon deputy manager was very quiet these days.
He used to be a psychopath without a n, who could be among the top three without any problem.
‘Did he still have the aftermath of running away from the bully?’
He didn’t know.
Anyway, there was one thing that everyone agreed on at this point.
Assistant Manager Song was the worst trash.
It was good in a way to have amon enemy like this.
It made the other people more united.
They only had to curse one person.
Thanks to that, they never ran out of topics during the meal.
What did Assistant Manager Song do in the past?
What kind of corruption did hemit? What was his reputation among his colleagues?
Who wrote the posts on the anonymous board? And so on.
They couldn’t believe how interesting these trivial stories about one person were.
When their tes were almost empty, Kwon Se Joon asked.
“But why does he do that?”
“What?”
“Assistant Manager Song. He’s well-respected and sessful in thepany. Why does he do so many things that would ruin his reputation?”
Why did he do that?
Yoo-hyun was curious about that too once.
And now, after 20 years, he could answer it simply.
“Because he can.”
That’s why he did it.
He could get away with it even if he got angry or annoyed for no reason, because he had the excuse of being a superior.
He could swear and curse and his subordinates had no choice but to follow him.
He got addicted to the sweetness of power and thought it was natural.
He didn’t even think it was wrong.
Min Jung Hyuk agreed with Yoo-hyun’s words.
“That’s right. He might be worse because he’s doing well. The top supports him, and the bottom trembles. What’s there to be afraid of?”
“That’s true.”
“No matter how much Assistant Manager Song acts up, no one can touch him. He looks like a gangster.”
Then he nced at Yoo-hyun.
‘He’s after you.’
His eyes seemed to say that.
Yoo-hyun just smiled calmly.
He would show him the result of crossing the line.
When Kwon Se Joon asked curiously.
“But hyung, you must have had a lot of pent-up anger. How can you talk without stopping?”
“You try it too. Ah, the more I think about it, the more angry I get.”
“Hyung, don’t worry. The next seminar will go well.”
Min Jung Hyuk revealed the reason why he had been talking so much.
“Of course it’s not because of the seminar. Don’t you know justice? Justice.”
“Eh, no. It’s because of the seminar.”
Kwon Se Joon insisted.
Min Jung Hyuk waved his hands and got up from his seat.
Then he finally admitted his true feelings.
“Fine. Whether it’s justice or not, I wish he was gone by the next seminar.”
“Should we pray together?”
“Please.”
Yoo-hyun listened to their conversation and chuckled. He thought of Min Jung Hyuk’s next seminar date.
Maybe.
It was possible.
No, he had to make it happen.
The ‘?? assistant manager’ series on the anonymous board had quieted down.
There was nothing more to say after everything came out, and nothing changed even if they wroteints on the board.
Although there were cracks, Assistant Manager Song’s power was still intact.
Of course, his position in thepany was also solid.
He had Director Lee Kyung Hoon and group leader above him, so no one could challenge him openly.
Assistant Manager Song must have thought so too.
But he didn’t know something.
It didn’t mean they forgot just because it was quiet.
The posts on the anonymous board were being monitored.
Especially the ones that could cause financial damage to thepany were managed by the ethicsmittee.
They just didn’t show any signs and waited until the details were revealed.
Yoo-hyun nted a small trap in the flood of posts.
-?? assistant manager’s illegal deal with apetitor.
It was not much different from what was exposed on the board.
If there was a difference, the other posts were stories of the past.
On the other hand, Yoo-hyun’s post included the future story of Assistant Manager Song.
-Assistant Manager Song will interfere with the development of LCD panels for Hyunil Automobiles.
That’s what the content meant.
It was literally a trap.
He also nted a few more traps.
It wouldn’t be a problem if he stayed quiet, but could he?
It’s hard to change one’s habits.
Hansung Tower, 20th floor, outdoor terrace.
Director Lee Kyung Hoon, who was leaning on the railing and making a call, looked grim.
“Yes, group leader. Yes. Yes. Yes. I understand.”
<i>Click.</i>
He handed a cigarette to Assistant Manager Song, who had finished the call.
Director Lee Kyung Hoon smoked silently without saying a word.
It was the moment he smoked again after quitting for five years.
Assistant Manager Song, who was across from him, didn’t lift his head as if he had be a sinner.
“Isn’t it funny?”
“…”
“Thepetitors are so rude to us.”
It was clearly Director Lee Kyung Hoon who mediated the matter.
But now he acted as if he had nothing to do with it.
“I guess they were annoyed. They thought they had it in the bag, but they got hit by us.”
“…”
“Come to think of it, our person in charge is very capable. He turned the table that waspletely tilted to Ilseong Electronics.”
It was an obvious sarcasm.
While the useless product nning team was making a fuss, what was the sales team person in charge doing?
It was a rebuke that he couldn’t do anything right.
Assistant Manager Song barely opened his mouth.
“I’m sorry.”
“Oh, I’m sorry. What do you have to be sorry about, Assistant Manager Song? You should be praised. You helped him get back what he lost. Haha.”
There was a sharp de in Director Lee Kyung Hoon’sugh.
Assistant Manager Song couldn’t lift his head or make any excuses.
“…”
“Assistant Manager Song, look up.”
He had to say something at the sharp words that flew at him.
Or he might really be cut by his gaze.
Then he would lose everything he had built up, not to mention thest thread that remained.
“I’ll get it back somehow.”
“Assistant Manager Song, think carefully. Hyunil Automobiles has already changed their mind. Ilseong Electronics has no say because they have their own conditions.”
“I know.”
“But we’re going to butt in again? Who are they trying to kill?”
Assistant Manager Song flinched at Director Lee Kyung Hoon’s sharp question.
“No.”
“Then?”
“I’ll try to control the development team. If our schedule is dyed…”
“That’s up to you. Sometimes you can do what you want without being told by your team. I’m not going to stop you.”
Director Lee Kyung Hoon drew a clear line.
He didn’t care what happened.
Of course, Assistant Manager Song took it as a message to ruin it even if he had to go too far.
And this was hisst chance.
He had to grab it somehow.
“I’ll make sure of it.”
Assistant Manager Song clenched his fist and answered.
…
A few dayster.
The members of the third part gathered in the conference room.
Manager Choi Min Hee reported to Kim Hyun Min deputy manager, the part leader, about the supply deal with Hyunil Automobiles that happenedst week.
“We’re coordinating with Hyunil Automobiles’ sales team…”
The weekly updated work report showed that she had done a lot of work.
That was proof that she was busy.
“The LCD panel for NaviTime products came out as a prototype and we tested it, and there was no problem with the basic operation.”
“I thought you’d have some trouble, but you turned on the screen quickly?”
“Yes. NaviTime gave us a lot of attention.”
As Manager Choi Min Hee said, NaviTime’s technology was very stable and good.
They did everything on their own without any special support.
Not only that, but they also actively performed cooperation with Hyunil Automobiles’ built-in parts team.
Thanks to that, they were able to get a good response from Hyunil Automobiles’ side.
The consultation between Hyunil Automobiles and Hansung Electronics’ sales team went smoothly because of that.
“It’s not easy. Honestly, it’s too risky for NaviTime.”
“Thank you. The benefit is not that big.”
“Why? I heard they’re thinking of transferring their navigation technology to Hyunil Automobiles.”
–Hyunil Automobiles and NaviTime, a specialized developmentpany for navigation, are discussing technical cooperation.
He probably saw this news that came out a while ago.
Kim Hyun Min deputy manager was worried for a simple reason.
There were too many cases of small and medium-sizedpanies that lost their technology torgepanies through technical cooperation.
NaviTime was doing well now, but they could be crushed by Hyunil Automobiles if they depended on them.
But Yoo-hyun’s thought was a little different.
‘You have to seize the opportunity when ites.’
If they sold it and left it at that, NaviTime would have done nothing but serve for a low price.
But if they built trust enough to cooperate technically, it would be different.
It’s not just because they could supply navigation to the next vehicle.
Vehicle information system, Hi-Pass, ck box, etc.
They had the upper hand in many built-in parts that went into Hyunil Automobiles.
Now they had a foothold to supply various sensors, cameras, control systems,munication equipment, etc. that would go into the car in the future.
They could hit the jackpot if they just held on to Hyunil Automobiles well.
They would surely achieve continuous growth for the next 10 years.
‘He’s a person with a good sense.’
He didn’t know how much influence his few words of advice had.
But his choice looked pretty good now.
