Chapter 478:
How should he greet them?
He imagined the bewildered faces of his team members as he arrived at his destination.
The door of the strategic nning office opened and a familiar man came out.
It was Song Hyun-seung, the executive director withrge eyes, nose, and a broad face.
Yoo-hyun quickly scanned the inside of the office and greeted him, who was also his former boss.
“Hello, Director Song Hyun-seung.”
“Huh? Who are you?”
“Yes. I’m Han Yoo-hyun, who joined the group strategy office this time.”
Director Song Hyun-seung recognized Yoo-hyun and his expression hardened slightly.It was probably because they were not very pleasant acquaintances.
Nevertheless, considering Director Shin Kyung-soo’s request and Vice President Yoon Ju-taek’s plea, he needed Yoo-hyun.
He soon made a decision and smiled kindly.
“I see. Nice to meet you. But why are you alone?”
“I couldn’t get in touch with anyone.”
“What?”
“I almost couldn’t get in if the password wasn’t too easy.”
Yoo-hyun casually pointed out the problem, and Director Song Hyun-seung’s eyes narrowed.
“Too easy?”
“Well, you just have to reverse the year and month. This kind of password is amon pattern that other teams use, too. It doesn’t suit the level of the group strategy office.”
“Huh. How embarrassing.”
“It’s not a big deal if you know the problem and improve it. I was thinking of suggesting this to the vice president during our meeting today.”
At Yoo-hyun’s continued words, Director Song Hyun-seung’s face turned red quickly.
He tried to hide his panic and stopped Yoo-hyun.
“You don’t have to tell the vice president such trivial things. I’ll take care of this part.”
“Okay. But which team do I belong to?”
“Did they not tell you that either?”
“No. I was going to ask the vice president, but I thought that was inappropriate.”
As Yoo-hyun kept mentioning Vice President Yoon Ju-taek, Director Song Hyun-seung clenched his teeth.
“Those bastards.”
“Did I say something wrong?”
“No. Follow me.”
Director Song Hyun-seung snorted and took the lead.
Yoo-hyun looked at Director Song Hyun-seung’s big butt as he walked and curled his lips.
‘I’ll see some fun after a long time.’
As far as Yoo-hyun remembered, Director Song Hyun-seung was quite hot-tempered, which did not suit the cold organizational atmosphere.
He guessed that his bad temper had worsened after the organizational restructuring.
It was because he was the only one who didn’t get promoted while others did.
And his team size was reduced, too, so he couldn’t be in a good mood.
Bang.
The sound of opening the conference room door showed his displeasure clearly.
At Director Song Hyun-seung’s sudden attack, Shim Byeong-jik, the team leader who was presiding over the meeting, jumped up from his seat.
“Di, Director.”
“Team Leader Shim, do you think thepany is easy because you became a manager?”
“Huh? What do you mean by that…”
At Director Song Hyun-seung’s abrupt scolding, Team Leader Shim Byeong-jik’s small eyes shook left and right.
As seen from his hunched shoulders and droopy eyes, he looked as weak as Yoo-hyun remembered him from the past.
He was a typical staff style who became a team leader by luck thanks to Director Kwon Sung-hoe’s departure and the organizational restructuring.
Yoo-hyun caught a glimpse of a familiar face between Director Song Hyun-seung’s back and the door and quickly skimmed through the report on the screen.
Below the title of ‘External Strategy Team Weekly Report’, there were names of world-sspanies and huge numbers.
The list of subsidiaries filled in the rted department section showed the uniqueness of the group strategy office’s work.
It was when Yoo-hyun had seen the names of the project leaders on the screen.
Director Song Hyun-seung, who was venting his anger, snapped his chin.
“Come in.”
At the same time, Yoo-hyun stepped forward and revealed himself.
Yoo-hyun looked at the faces of the team members sitting down and matched their names and faces.
The team name had changed to External Strategy Team, and many core members had left, but most of them were familiar faces.
Among them, there was someone he wanted to meet again.
Shin Nak-kyun, the youngest assistant, who made eye contact with Yoo-hyun, stammered.
“Ho, how did you get in?”
“Ha. How? He said he couldn’t get in touch with anyone, so he came in by himself. The password pattern was the same as other teams, so it was too easy, so he just pressed it and the door opened.”
Director Song Hyun-seung spat out as if he was annoyed and Team Leader Shim Byeong-jik raised his voice.
“Assistant Shin, is that true?”
“That’s…”
Assistant Shin Nak-kyun’s face turned thoughtful for a moment.
It was his job to contact Yoo-hyun and manage the password.
Director Song Hyun-seung shouted like a fire at the sight of the team’s amateurish appearance.
“Does that make sense? How can you treat someone who the vice president brought in personally like this?”
“…”
The word ‘talent’ popped out of Director Song Hyun-seung’s mouth, who usually didn’t brag.
The team members who had been investigating Yoo-hyun from below all had incredulous expressions.
But Director Song Hyun-seung didn’t care and even touched his pride.
“Are you protesting because you didn’t get the group’s best award, huh?”
“…”
But no one could argue in this atmosphere.
It was because Director Song Hyun-seung’s anger was burning fiercely.
At this point, he could be seen as in the second stage of his four-stage anger, which consisted of small anger, medium anger,rge anger, and extreme anger.
Yoo-hyun watched him like a fire show and Director Song Hyun-seung said to him.
“Hoo. This won’t happen again.”
“I’m sorry I said something and made a big deal out of it.”
“No. It’s something that needs to be fixed.”
“Well, you’re right. The group strategy office, which is the highest level, shouldn’t be so sloppy.”
“…”
As Yoo-hyun suddenly agreed with him, he felt resentful nces from everywhere.
They might think of Yoo-hyun more unfavorably because of this, but he didn’t care.
He didn’te in to be friends with them in the first ce.
And it wasn’t a structure where he could be epted by pleasing them.
He decided to act as he pleased and Yoo-hyun stepped forward.
“Director, this seems to be my team, can I introduce myself first?”
“Sure. Go ahead.”
With his permission, Yoo-hyun walked naturally to the middle of the conference room and looked at their faces again.
He could see more clearly the things he had to pay them back for as he looked at them closely.
Yoo-hyun smiled and greeted them, thinking that he had done well toe to the Group Strategy Office.
“Nice to meet you. I’m Han Yoo-hyun. Before I tell you about my background, I have something to say.”
“…”
He didn’t just lure Song Hyun-seung, the senior manager, to greet him.
Yoo-hyun was determined to get what he wanted from this ce and spoke with confidence.
“As you all know, I’m someone who was personally brought here by Vice President Yoon Joo-tak. I have the skills to match, and I want to be treated ordingly.”
Everyone looked dumbfounded at his brazen attitude.
‘Is he crazy?’
‘Isn’t he a total psycho?’
Naturally, they gave him negative res, and Song Hyun-seung, who was next to him, also tilted his head as if something was wrong.
Yoo-hyun quickly quoted the phrase that was hanging on the wall of his office before he could open his mouth.
“It may seem arrogant, but I’m someone who thinks that I should show results rather than words. I’ll show you soon. Please take good care of me.”
Yoo-hyun finished his speech with a polite tone, as if to dilute his arrogance, and Song Hyun-seung nodded his head, repeating his motto.
“That’s right. You have to bring results rather than words.”
Seeing that he reacted as expected, Yoo-hyun seized the opportunity.
“Manager, can I ask you one thing?”
“What is it?”
“Please assign me only one person. No matter what task is given, I’ll make the results.”
Song Hyun-seung was embarrassed by Yoo-hyun’s bold request.
It didn’t make sense to assign someone to a newbie who had no track record yet.
But he couldn’t ignore his words, either, since Vice President Yoon Joo-tak had asked him to take good care of him.
However, he thought that it wouldn’t be bad to have one person as a monitor and supporter, and he nodded his head.
“Let’s do that.”
“Manager, the project personnel allocation is already over. There is no avable manpower to invest in an unreliable person.”
Shim Byeong-jik, the team leader, openly expressed his dissatisfaction, but it didn’t work.
Song Hyun-seung shed his big eyes.
“What? Are you trying to embarrass me in front of the newbie?”
“No, no. I just meant to give him more time and see…”
“Give him time? What are you waiting for? Hey, Shin, assistant manager.”
“Yes, manager.”
Shin Nak-kyun, the assistant manager, who had a long face and slit eyes, stood up from his seat with an anxious expression.
As expected, Song Hyun-seung pointed at him.
“You support him.”
“Me?”
“Are you saying something? Or are you going to ignore my words again?”
“No, no.”
Shin Nak-kyun, who had bent his waist, hesitated.
He had to step up to make up for the previous incident, but he didn’t seem to like it.
Yoo-hyun recalled the old memories he had with him as he looked at his dissatisfied face.
-Hey, Han Yoo-hyun, did youe from a crappy college and have poor judgment? Or did you get bad home education? Do I have to teach you these basics?
He was the same rank as an assistant manager at the time, but he had more seniority than Yoo-hyun.
He not only bossed Yoo-hyun around with his finger, but also hurt his feelings with harsh words.
He still looked annoying even when he saw him again. Yoo-hyun approached him and extended his hand, lowering his voice naturally.
“Assistant Manager Shin, please take good care of me.”
“There’s nothing I’ll do for you as a favor.”
As expected, he ignored Yoo-hyun’s hand and spoke stiffly. Yoo-hyun immediately snapped back.
“Hey. I’m higher in rank than you, so you should speak politely.”
“What, what did you say?”
“I’m Han Yoo-hyun, the section chief. The Group Strategy Office is not a ce without hierarchy, right?”
Yoo-hyun spoke sarcastically, but it was not a situation to pick a fight.
He was right, even though he was cheeky, and behind Yoo-hyun was Song Hyun-seung, the senior manager.
“…”
Shin Nak-kyun, who was looking around nervously, was reluctantly told by Shim Byeong-jik, the team leader.
“Assistant Manager Shin, just speak politely to him.”
“Team leader.”
Yoo-hyun tapped Shin Nak-kyun’s shoulder, who was making a wronged expression.
“Let’s do well.”
“Ugh.”
Shin Nak-kyun clenched his fist, and the others looked incredulous.
It must have hurt their pride a lot, as they were full of elitism.
But this was also something they had to adapt to.
They would have to suffer a lot more in the future.
There was no reason to quarrel with the pyramids here, so Yoo-hyun turned his head to Song Hyun-seung.
“Manager, I think the greetings are over. Do you have time?”
“Time?”
“Yes. I think it’s better to have a meeting with you before I see the vice president.”
At the mention of the vice president, he coughed and continued.
“Hmm. That would be good.”
“Thank you.”
Yoo-hyun bowed his head and winked at Shin Nak-kyun, who was full of resentment.
He looked very impressive, shaking with anger.
Yoo-hyun left a pleasant smile and followed Song Hyun-seung.
Song Hyun-seung was a person who spoke of results, but he was strong on factionalism.
He hade from the LCD business unit with Park Doo-sik, the deputy manager, and had looked down on Yoo-hyun as a rootless person.
He had taken the lead in driving out Vice President Shin Kyung-wook, and had also made Yoo-hyun the main culprit of the massyoffs.
Yoo-hyun had a debt to pay him back.
But not now.
Song Hyun-seung needed Yoo-hyun now, just as Yoo-hyun needed him for a while to make his work easier.
