Chapter 500:


    While Jun-il Lee, the manager, was secretly moving behind the scenes, Yoo-hyun wanted to take one more step towards his goal.


    That action led to a confrontation with Jung Hwan-choo, the executive director, the next morning.


    Yoo-hyun told him his thoughts as they faced each other in the office.


    “I want to use the current positive atmosphere to…”


    Jung Hwan-choo, the executive director, who was greedy and quick to calcte, extracted the core of what Yoo-hyun said.


    “You want to make it a best case ofbor-managementpromise, right?”


    “Yes. I hope it will be included in the indicators that the Ministry of Employment and Labor will announce this month.”


    “Did you move the president for that reason?”


    “That’s right.”The president of Hansung Precision’s sry cut had nothing to do with Yoo-hyun.


    Of course, the executive director had no way of knowing the details behind it.


    It was a big scale that involved the president.


    The executive director nodded his head, losing his will to resist.


    “I see. Let’s do that.”


    “There’s more. I’m going to set up the production management team as a follow-up organization. I ask for your support from the management perspective.”


    “Is that why you were in the production management team beforehand?”


    “You know it well. Oh, and there’s one more thing I want to tell you. It’s…”


    Yoo-hyun calmly answered and suggested a few more things.


    They were all things that could not be said without nning from the start.


    “…”


    The executive director, who was listening, could not open his mouth for a while.


    The production management team was temporarily promoted to a follow-up organization by the executive director.


    The production management team members who heard the news were all very excited.


    Their expressions were too bright to say that they just got the authority to control the whole.


    The reason was revealed shortly after, in the conference room on the first floor of Factory A.


    Profit sharing.


    As Yoo-hyun opened the door and entered, the production management team members who were already seated jumped up.


    Before they greeted him, Yoo-hyun gestured to the floor first.


    “Please sit down. You know I don’t like that formal stuff.”


    “Thank you.”


    As the leader of the first part, Jong-in-chae, the deputy manager, spoke first, the team members greeted him one after another.


    Among them, Jin Han-gong, the assistant manager, had the most cheerful voice.


    “Thank you for the surprise bonus, manager. You’re the best.”


    “It’s because you guys did well. No, it’s because you’re going to do well in the future.”


    “We’ll do our best.”


    The people shone their eyes with Jin Han-gong’s spirit.


    They helped him diligently before thebor-management negotiation, but they were just following him blindly, not being proactive.


    But now that they got recognition and authority, they changedpletely.


    Since they had already prepared in advance, Yoo-hyun went straight to the point.


    “Mr. Chae, your part will be in charge of Hansung Construction. Please pay attention to securing housing and expanding rest facilities. I’ve notified the construction side, so you can proceed right away.”


    “Got it.”


    Jong-in-chae, the deputy manager who had forcefully solved the problem of housing for the workers at Seosan Factory, now moved to create a morefortable environment for them.


    The leader of the second part, Jae-hyun Park, the deputy manager, was the same.


    “Mr. Park, please proceed with the recement of the old equipment. And contact the management and personnel side to improve the attendance problem of the employees.”


    “I’ve already gathered the Hansung SI staff to build the system.”


    He had known that the old equipment had problems, but he had to ignore it because of the orders from above.


    Now he started to work faster to rece them.


    Yoo-hyun smiled with satisfaction and added a few more words.


    “Well done. And…”


    There was no need for a long speech, as they had the authority and the framework was already set.


    The people who understood Yoo-hyun’s words got up from their seats right away.


    Soon the conference room was empty.


    There was no more reason to stay in the empty office, so Yoo-hyun went up to the second floor of Building A.


    Bang.


    As he opened the door and entered the factory manager’s office, Hong Gu An, the factory manager, who was reading the newspaper, was startled.


    “Wow.”


    “Did youe?”


    Sung-ryul Lee, the team leader, who was next to him, quickly got up and greeted him.


    Yoo-hyun had preserved his position after elevating the production management team.


    He didn’t even pressure him to cut his sry, so he was very careful of Yoo-hyun.


    Sung-ryul Lee, the team leader, moved to the coffee machine in the office before Yoo-hyun sat down.


    “What kind of coffee do you want?”


    “Espresso, please.”


    “Okay.”


    While Sung-ryul Lee was busy moving, Yoo-hyun sat down on the sofa and picked up the newspaper.


    Hong Gu An, the factory manager, who was sitting across from him, blinked his eyes.


    “What are you here for?”


    “The office chair is a bit ufortable.”


    “…”


    Yoo-hyun didn’t even look at him and skimmed through the Hansung Daily.


    The content of the voluntary sry cut that was posted on the inte news was on the first page.


    He was worried that Yoo-hyun would make more demands, so Hong Gu An, the factory manager, looked very anxious.


    Sung-ryul Lee, the team leader, who brought the coffee, was also anxious.


    The two of them were so tense that they couldn’t swallow their saliva, and they paid attention to Yoo-hyun.


    Crack.


    The sound of turning one page of the newspaper made the two of them sigh with relief.


    Yoo-hyun ignored the two’s reactions and drank coffee while looking at the articles.


    It was quite enjoyable to read the paper newspaper on a soft sofa.


    He found an article that caught his eye while reading the articles for a while.


    The high-performance modem chip mentioned in the article was a test 3G chip made by JK Communications, and its performance was inferior to thepetitors’ chips.


    But it was 30 percent cheaper, so it was perfect for making a budget line.


    But why did it sound like they were going for a premium line?


    Yoo-hyun sent a message to Sung-deuk Kim, the deputy manager, to check and put his phone in his pocket.


    Hong Gu An, the factory manager, who saw Yoo-hyun, tried to smile.


    “Isn’t it time to go back now?”


    “Where to?”


    “To the office… No, to Hansung Tower. Thebor-management negotiation is over…”


    He spoke very cautiously, and Yoo-hyun shrugged his shoulders.


    “What are you talking about? Nothing has been done yet.”


    “Nothing has been done? Didn’t everything go your way?”


    It was a matter of deciding to donate 50 percent of the sry to thepany, regardless of the strike.


    An Hong-gu, the factory manager, raised his voice, thinking that he had nothing more to give.


    Ziiing.


    Just then, the phone rang, and Yoo-hyun gestured with his index finger on his lips to quiet him down.


    An Hong-gu, who made a frustrated face, stepped back, and Yoo-hyun answered the phone with a pleasant voice.


    “Long time no see, Mr. Kim. How have you been?”


    -I’ve been so busytely. How about you, Mr. Han?


    “I’m doing well. I’m on a business trip right now, so please take good care of everyone.”


    Yoo-hyun replied with a smile, and the two people who were facing him gave a hollowugh, as if they couldn’t believe it.


    Kim Sung-deuk, the deputy manager who had no idea about the situation, casually brought up the main point.


    -Mr. Han, you must be doing well wherever you are. Oh, and about the Google reference phone.


    “Yes. Did the strategy change because of the foreign executives?”


    -That’s right. The CMO (Chief Marketing Officer) opposed the budget model, saying he wanted to maximize profits.


    “What about the Innovation Strategy Office? They must have not been quiet either.”


    It was very different from what Vice President Shin Kyung-wook had in mind.


    Seeing how the situation had turned out, it seemed that there had been quite a power struggle between the organizations.


    Kim Sung-deuk, the deputy manager, pointed out the part that Yoo-hyun had guessed.


    -That’s why I’m having a hard time getting involved in the middle. There are so many changes in the decisions that it’s not easy to set the direction.


    “I’m sure you’re having a hard time.”


    -It would be nice if this was the end. Channel Watch is also very sensitive as theunch date approaches.


    “I have something to say about Channel Watch too… Mr. Kim, hold on a second.”


    As Yoo-hyun was about to continue, he saw An Hong-gu, the factory manager, ring at him with a fierce look, so he covered the phone’s speaker with his hand and opened his mouth.


    “Mr. An, don’t mind me and do your work.”


    “This is my office.”


    “Then why are you here?”


    “What do you mean…”


    An Hong-gu, the factory manager, was at a loss for words.


    He had no sense of the situation, and there was no sign of improvement.


    Yoo-hyun, who gave a snicker, turned serious.


    “You must not have realized the situation yet, after I saved you from drowning.”


    “…”


    “Mr. Chu, the senior executive, ran to the Ministry of Employment and Labor to survive, but what are you doing?”


    “…”


    An Hong-gu, the factory manager, was speechless.


    He had no time to stop here.


    Yoo-hyun continued to look at Lee Seong-ryeol, the team leader.


    “It’s the same for you, Mr. Lee.”


    “What did I do?”


    “The team members are busy with the follow-up measures, but are you just hanging out in the office?”


    “No, that’s not…”


    Yoo-hyun poured out his words sharply to Lee Seong-ryeol, the team leader, who was stuttering.


    “Remember this. If the follow-up measures are notpleted within a week, our promise is void. If you’re curious, keep ying.”


    “Huh.”


    The moment Yoo-hyun spat out a cold word.


    Grrr.


    The two men got up from their seats and ran out of the room as if they had made a promise.


    Meanwhile, Kim Sung-deuk’s voice came from the phone.


    -Is something urgent?


    “No. I just had to give some minor instructions.”


    -Well, it’s about time for a manager to take care of his juniors.


    “It’s not easy. Oh, please tell me more about Channel Watch.”


    -Channel Watch is now…


    Kim Sung-deuk, the deputy manager who had no idea about the background, vented his troubles.


    Yoo-hyun drew the picture of the situation that would unfold in the future, using his words as a background.


    No matter what picture he drew, Yoo-hyun needed Channel Watch anyway.


    After hanging up the phone, Yoo-hyun did not hesitate to call another number.


    Ddiroddiroli.


    On the phone screen, the name of Ye Tae-sik, the executive director of the Innovation Strategy Office, who was the second inmand, appeared.


    While Yoo-hyun was preparing for the future, the follow-up measures were carried out smoothly.


    The production management team moved in all directions, and the factory manager supported them, so the results came out quickly.


    First, the housing problem was solved.


    Han Sung Construction purchased the nearby unsold apartments.


    It was a big investment by the management support department under the approval of the Group Strategy Office, but the result was good.


    The price range was more reasonable and cheaper than expanding the dormitory.


    It was a plus situation in terms of thepany’s assets, and there was an additional benefit.


    The information that Yoo-hyun had leaked through Han Se-il News eventually moved the Wonju mayor, and this led to the improvement of the group’s image.


    With therge-scale new recruitment of local people, the Wonju mayor, who was facing an election, had no choice but to be thankful to Han Sung.


    Thanks to that, Han Sung Precision articles continued to be introduced in the local newspapers, even though the fire was about to go out.


    In this atmosphere, the expansion of the lounge and the recement of the production equipment were also done quickly.


    Instead of maintaining two shifts until the new recruits were deployed, additionalpensation was paid to the workers.


    It was a lot of money, so they reacted well enough to want to do two shifts.


    As the changes took ce every time they blinked, the employees couldn’t help but talk.


    Praises for thepany came out from here and there, and most of the praises were directed to the union team, who had worked hard behind the scenes.


    The union office received thank-you rice cakes almost every day.


    In this positive atmosphere, the union team members rolled up their sleeves and worked harder.
