Chapter 494:
Yoo-hyun smiled inwardly and stepped back.
“Yes, I understand. As an apology, you can speak casually from now on. I was actually feeling a bit stifled.”
“No, but still…”
As the factory manager Ahn Hong-gu looked around, the executive director Chu Jeong-hwan casually called Yoo-hyun.
“Factory manager, you can speakfortably. It’s better to be rxed if we want to sort things out. Don’t you think so, manager Han?”
“Yes, just befortable. All you have to do is work well.”
“Don’t worry. There won’t be any problems that you’re worried about.”
“You’re confident. Shall we move on to the next topic?”
Yoo-hyun smiled faintly and gestured.It was time to get to the point after the preparatory stage of getting to know each other.
Yoo-hyun, who had somewhat dispelled his doubts, moved his seat closer to the two men.
Yoo-hyun lightly skipped over the basic preparations for the fifthbor-management consultation and focused on realistic solutions.
As if he had expected it, the executive director Chu Jeong-hwan showed off his preparedness.
“The biggest obstacle in thisbor-management consultation is…”
Yoo-hyun nodded as he listened.
“In the end, the key is the union leader. I heard he has a lot of support from the employees.”
“That’s right. He has a strong grip on the organization. He doesn’t waver easily, and he’s good at negotiating.”
“Hmm. He seems to be greedy from the confidential conditions he offered.”
“He has to take care of his officers. Don’t they all have the ambition to protect their own people?”
“What about his own ambition?”
Yoo-hyun caught the point at once, and the corner of the executive director Chu Jeong-hwan’s mouth twitched.
He was sure that Yoo-hyun was moving as he intended.
“Of course he has it.”
“Then why couldn’t you negotiate with him if you knew that?”
“I wish I knew the way. But he won’t budge unless it’s really serious.”
“It has to be serious?”
“Yes. Even giving him all the confidential conditions won’t work.”
The executive director Chu Jeong-hwan seemed to be slowly turning around, but there was no need to do that.
Yoo-hyun immediately said the words that would lead to the conclusion.
“Then I have something in mind.”
“What is it?”
“Promise me that you’ll arrange a meeting with him and I’ll tell you.”
“What? Personally?”
“Why are you so surprised? I know you have a private channel.”
As Yoo-hyun spoke as if he knew everything, the factory manager Ahn Hong-gu, who was sitting next to him, looked embarrassed.
He was not only clueless, but also bad at managing his expression.
The executive director Chu Jeong-hwan answered calmly.
“Let me hear it first and then decide.”
“I only want to tell you, sir.”
“Okay.”
The executive director Chu Jeong-hwan, who excluded the factory manager Ahn Hong-gu, leaned his ear closer.
This small action gave him more confidence.
Yoo-hyun whispered to him as if he was telling a secret.
“What I thought of is…”
“Huh. How did you find out about that?”
“I did some research. He’ll definitely fall for it.”
“It must have cost a lot of money?”
The surprised executive director Chu Jeong-hwan asked for confirmation.
His expression was serious, but there were deep wrinkles around his eyes.
“It’s less than thepany’s loss due to the strike. If it doesn’t work, I’m thinking of doing it this way.”
Yoo-hyun ignored the indifferent factory manager Ahn Hong-gu and gave a firm answer.
In the end, the executive director Chu Jeong-hwan, who agreed to follow Yoo-hyun’s will, contacted the union leader Jang Seok-jun.
In the meantime, Yoo-hyun quickly wrote a proposal.
He had prepared it beforehand, and it was easy to write the proposal since they had agreed on everything.
The executive director Chu Jeong-hwan, who checked the proposal, pretended to be worried and continued to express his concerns.
When the promised time came, he got up first as if he had no choice.
Yoo-hyun followed him to the customer reception room on the third floor of Factory A.
It was a ce where the outside windows were blocked, like the VIP conference room in Hansung Tower, and the elevator in front of the customer reception room was connected to the underground passage of Factory B.
It was a ce where security was rtively thorough, and the executive director Chu Jeong-hwan asked Yoo-hyun.
“I told you before, but this is a very delicate situation. You have to speak well.”
“Don’t worry. He’lle around eventually.”
“I tried, but it won’t be easy.”
Yoo-hyun looked at the expression of the executive director Chu Jeong-hwan, who spat out a calm voice.
He pretended to be nervous and clenched his mouth, but he couldn’t stop the corners of his mouth from twitching slightly.
He was probably rejoicing inside.
Looking at him, an old proverb came to Yoo-hyun’s mind.
A needle thief bes a cow thief.
He, who had tasted money while mediating thest three strikes, devised a scheme to use the group strategy room to get more money.
It was the result of skillfully using the characteristics of the Wonju factory, where a strike should never ur.
Of course, he couldn’t do all this by himself.
He had a soul partner who had coordinated with him before, and he wasing here now.
Yoo-hyun’s eyes felt sharp, and the executive director Chu Jeong-hwan asked.
“Why? Do you have something to say?”
“I do, but I’ll tell you after it’s over.”
“Okay. This is a very important negotiation.”
As Yoo-hyun answered, the executive director Chu Jeong-hwan nodded.
Click.
The door opened and a tall man with a handsome face entered.
The man, who was familiar to Yoo-hyun’s eyes, was Jang Seok-jun, the union leader.
He had seen his picture in the union office when he visited the Seosan factory a while ago, so he remembered him clearly.
Now he was the core of the Wonju factory union strike, and he was angry with a stern expression.
“What the hell are you doing?”
“Hey, leader Jang, that’s harsh.”
The executive director Chu Jeong-hwan shook his voice.
Jang Seok-jun, as if he had been waiting, poured out his words like a waterfall.
“You should negotiate at thebor-management consultation, why did you call me here? Don’t you know the basics, sir?”
“Leader Jang Seok-jun, didn’t I tell you? I didn’t call you, the group did.”
“Group or whatever, all you have to do is give me what I want. I came here to tell you that, so I’ll go now.”
“Leader.”
The executive director Chu Jeong-hwan tried to hold him back with a displeased expression, but Jang Seok-jun had already turned his body.
If you’re going to leave, why did youe in the first ce?
Why did youe in and do that?
Yoo-hyun barely held back hisughter at the clumsy act and got up from his seat.
“Leader, don’t do that and sit down.”
"What did you say?"
"It''s a good deal for the employees. You won''t regret it if you ept it."
"…"
"Isn''t it better for both of us if we have a sessful negotiation? Please consider it."
Maybe it was because Yoo-hyun was more polite than expected.
Jang Seok-jun, the union leader, nced at Director Chu Jeong-hwan and sat down.
But his attitude was still prickly.
"If you try any cheap tricks, I''ll walk out right away. Just so you know."
"Yes, of course. I know you''re a busy person, so I prepared a proposal for you."
"Let me see it."
Swish.
Yoo-hyun took out a sheet of paper from the prepared documents and handed it to him.
Then he exined the options that were listed densely.
"First of all, I''ll expand the confidential items for you."
"Expand?"
"Yes. Not only will we give priority to hiring the children of the union executives, but we''ll also give them an extra bonus for two years."
"…"
"Also, as you requested, we''ll arrange for the union executives who retire to be transferred to a subsidiary…"
They were all uses that were overwhelmingly favorable to the union executives.
Yoo-hyun also promised to abide by them without fail.
But Jang Seok-jun, the union leader, remained silent and listened.
After checking all the contents, he gave Yoo-hyun a fierce look.
"I represent not only the union executives, but also the entire union members."
"That''s why I also mentioned the benefits for the union members."
"No. I mean, we can''t enjoy the privileges while thepany is doing well."
It was a really noble statement, but not something that someone who was behind the scenes should say.
"…"
Yoo-hyun didn''t answer, and Director Chu Jeong-hwan expressed his concern and ttered Jang Seok-jun, the union leader.
"Mr. Han. The chairman is not someone who would be swayed by this. You need to be more careful in your approach."
"No. I think the negotiation should be done at the bargaining table. Let''s pretend we didn''t hear anything today."
Jang Seok-jun, the union leader, also pressured him and got up from his seat.
No matter what happened, Yoo-hyun had to resolve the strike.
He had no choice but to use thest resort, as this negotiation could not be missed.
No, he pretended to do so, and Yoo-hyun also acted.
"Wait a minute."
"What is it?"
"How can you leave without seeing thest sheet? This is the main point."
Swish.
Jang Seok-jun, the union leader, who sat down, received the document that Yoo-hyun handed over.
He quickly exchanged nces with Director Chu Jeong-hwan after checking the contents.
Yoo-hyun pretended not to know and uttered a word.
"There are a lot of problems with thepany''s old equipment. I guess the group wants to invest in it."
"…"
"The most suitablepany is Shinwoo Tech. The investment amount is 3 billion, and I don''t know the progress, so I have no way to check it."
"…"
Jang Seok-jun, the union leader, remained silent, and Yoo-hyun tried to reassure him as if he said the following.
"Even if we lose the investment, it will be a huge benefit for thepany if we reduce the wage increase. I will also get a reward."
"…"
Jang Seok-jun, the union leader, still kept silent and looked at Director Chu Jeong-hwan.
There was a reason for that.
Shinwoo Tech was a ghostpany that Jang Seok-jun, the union leader, had set up.
Yoo-hyun''s offer to invest was tantamount to secretly handing him money.
This was what Director Chu Jeong-hwan intended, and thanks to Yoo-hyun''s initiative, the matter was easily resolved.
Nod.
Jang Seok-jun, the union leader, confirmed Director Chu Jeong-hwan''s nod and asked cautiously.
"Can I check my phone?"
"Why? Are you afraid I''m recording something?"
Yoo-hyun chuckled and put his phone on the table.
He didn''t stop there and got up from his seat and spread his jacket.
"If you''re still suspicious, you can search other ces."
Yoo-hyun pushed him hard, and Jang Seok-jun, the union leader, stepped back.
"No. I just asked to check."
"We have to make sure the deal is solid. I''m not the kind of person who does such petty things."
Yoo-hyun clicked his tongue and buttoned his jacket again.
Then he tapped his chest and checked the fountain pen in his pocket.
This fountain pen-shaped recorder, which he bought at Yongsan Electronics Market, recorded everything.
The situation was over in an instant, as they had the same intention.
Jang Seok-jun, the union leader, decided to agree to the 3.8% wage increase and 150% bonus that Director Chu Jeong-hwan proposed.
Of course, he also showed his meticulousness to enjoy all kinds of benefits for the union executives.
The union team members praised the union leader as a great person, not knowing that he was doing this.
Yoo-hyun hid his bitter feelings and ttered him.
"Thank you for your consideration, Chairman."
"It''s all for the sake of thepany. We have to follow our will."
Even though the situation was over, Jang Seok-jun, the union leader, was immersed in his acting.
Director Chu Jeong-hwan also added a word without shame.
"You did well, Chairman, but Mr. Han here worked hard too. He led a sessful negotiation, so he''ll be able to fly now."
"What about you, Director?"
"I''ll be satisfied with keeping my position."
He was the one who would eat more than half of the 3 billion, but he was so humble.
Yoo-hyun expressed his admiration to him, which he couldn''t say before.
"I learn a lot from you, Director."
It wasn''t a lie, he learned that the people who ate 20 billionter were different from the beginning.
Yoo-hyun, who didn''t know his inner thoughts, opened his mouth proudly.
"It''s not over yet, Chairman."
"Yes, Director."
"Please take good care of the union members."
"I wanted to ask you the same thing. I''ll coordinate with the executives to make it look like the group strategy room is driving hard."
"That way, it''ll look better if we make a dramatic settlement. Mr. Han, what do you think?"
"You''re amazing. Please do that."
Yoo-hyun raised his thumb, and Director Chu Jeong-hwan nodded with satisfaction.
"It''s really refreshing. Thanks to you, everyone wins."
"Haha. That''s what they say."
Jang Seok-jun, the union leader, also smiled happily.
Who was winning?
Yoo-hyun smiled faintly as he watched the two people digging their own graves without knowing it.
