Chapter 508:
The woman with short blonde hair, big earrings, and angr sses with a brown tone was much more famous in Europe than in Asia.
The Spanish prince who recognized her was startled.
“Wow. Laura Parker.”
“…”
While Maria Carlos was bewildered, Laura Parker’s voice came out of the video.
-I am grateful to be able to present my gift to the respected Maria Carlos. Was it three years ago? I promised to give you a design as a gift over a cup of tea. And…
The voiceing from the speakers ced everywhere captivated everyone’s ears.
It was unusual for Laura Parker to write a video letter to someone.
Maria Carlos, who was shocked beyond emotion, couldn’t say anything with her mouth shut.Yoo-hyun stepped back as if he had expected it and gave her some space.
“…”
Yeo Tae-sik, the executive director who was watching Yoo-hyun from afar, lost his words.
‘Did he get this video along with the exclusive right to OLED panels for Channel Watch?’
The exclusive contract with the channel was meaningful in terms of securing a stable supply.
In addition, it was a good situation for publicity, so Yeo Tae-sik, the executive director, agreed to coordinate the disy and electronics.
But Yoo-hyun didn’t stop there and got more.
As he admired Yoo-hyun’s wit, the video ended.
Swoosh.
Maria Carlos, who was looking at the watch on her wrist, opened her mouth.
“This is the biggest gift of my life.”
“It is an honor to share this moment with you.”
As Yoo-hyun answered, she grabbed his hand with emotion.
“Is there anything you want? I really want to grant it to you.”
At that moment, the executives of the group strategy room, including Joo Jae-oh, the executive director, opened their mouths wide.
As if to meet the expectations of the people, Yoo-hyun smiled and answered.
“Yes. I have a wish. It is…”
The content flowed out of Yoo-hyun’s mouth, and Maria Carlos nodded her head willingly.
The result could be confirmed in the impromptu interview that was held after the exhibition.
“A sisterhood between the royal family and Hansung Group. And it was Maria Carlos who said that.”
The director Lee Joon-il, who watched the interview, smiled.
In an empty conference room on the first floor, Yoo-hyun, who was facing him, humbly answered.
“I was lucky.”
“If you had only hoped for luck, you wouldn’t have prepared the video of Laura Parker in advance.”
“I also thought it might not work.”
“It’s not polite to make the reporters wait. Oh, is it okay because she’s a close reporter?”
Yoo-hyun’s heart burned.
As expected, Lee Joon-il knew about the existence of Oh Eun-bi, the reporter.
How much did he investigate?
He tightened the tension in his heart.
Yoo-hyun, who was drinking coffee and organizing his thoughts, threw a bait to check this part.
He said something that was not uploaded to the shared folder.
“I’m sorry, but I can’t tell you what it is.”
“Hey,e on. I even bought you coffee.”
As Lee Joon-il joked, Yoo-hyun responded with a rxed smile.
“The coffee shop beans are not that good.”
“Hahaha! That’s right, that’s right. I’m getting high-quality information, but I’m ying too cheap.”
“Thank you for understanding.”
“Can’t I even get a hint?”
Lee Joon-il, who couldn’t stand his curiosity, asked with a yful expression.
Yoo-hyun, who wanted to check more, looked at him.
“I can give you a small hint.”
“Wow, what is it?”
“Do you remember when Maria Carlos smiled when I greeted her at the beginning?”
“The one she smiled with the Narutal Power employees?”
“Yes. That’s right. It has something to do with that smile.”
“Oh. That makes me more curious.”
Yoo-hyun smiled at Lee Joon-il, who was regretful.
‘He must have investigated after the Narutal Power meeting.’
It was obvious that he was meticulous enough to sweep the Wonju factory.
This meant that he didn’t know the details of the rtionship between Shin Kyung-wook, the vice president, and Yoo-hyun.
On the contrary, he thought he could use this.
Meanwhile, Lee Joon-il, who was tapping his cheekbones and mumbling, pped his hands.
“What should I give you? Ah, I can give you more bonus.”
“Bonus?”
“You’ll get at least the head of the department award without me doing anything. But 50 million won is too little, isn’t it?”
The limit of the bonus that the head of the group strategy room could give without approval was 50 million won.
It meant that the internal decision was made by the fact that he, who was in charge of personnel support, said this.
Yoo-hyun stepped back with a smile as if he was asking for it.
“That’s more than enough for me.”
“Is that so? If you were satisfied with that, you wouldn’t have prepared the video of Laura Parker.”
“Why do you think so?”
“That’s too much of an overkill. You didn’t have to take that much risk to solve it.”
“I admit it.”
As Yoo-hyun nodded his head coolly, Lee Joon-il smiled as if he had expected it.
He enjoyed the reasoning process based on thorough data, whether it was then or now.
“But I had a feeling why you did that.”
“What feeling?”
“How would Maria Carlos react when she was so touched? She would want to convey that emotion every time she looked at the Channel Watch on her wrist. And there’s a timely banquet with the royal family, right?”
“…”
“What if the story of that emotion reaches thedy? It’s not a big deal for a manager to catch thedy’s eye, right? You’ll get a big reward. Am I wrong?”
It was an open secret in the group strategy room that if you caught Hong Jin-hee’s eye, you could get a group chairman award.
Yoo-hyun pretended to be caught andughed hard.
“It’s hard to deny.”
Squeak.
Suddenly, one corner of Lee Joon-il’s mouth rose sharply.
He leaned forward confidently as if he hadpletely grasped Yoo-hyun.
“But what now? I can give you something bigger than that.”
“Something bigger?”
“I have some connections in the HR department, you know.”
It could have been an empty boast, but Yoo-hyun knew it was not a lie.
Why did he suddenly be so proactive?
Because he was confident that he had seen through Yoo-hyun’s desire.
Yoo-hyun deliberately kept his distance so that he could misunderstand him more.
“I’m sorry, but I’m not the type to trust people.”
“That’s right. You don’t trust people. But your mind might change when you hear the amount.”
“Until it’s in my bank ount, right?”
Yoo-hyun’s rxed answer seemed to please Lee Jun Il, the manager, whoughed cheerfully.
“Ha ha! You’re right. Maybe I’m being too pushy for a first meeting.”
“No, not at all. I just feel like I don’t know much about you, sir.”
“Don’t know much, huh? You’ll get to know me better if you attend this party.”
Lee Jun Il’s meaningful smile told him a lot.
He had something prepared for this party.
Was Shin Kyung-sooing?
It was unlikely that he would visit just for the party, but it was not impossible.
From the beginning, Lee Jun Il’s appearance had messed up a lot of things.
‘Maybe.’
Yoo-hyun was imagining various possibilities in his head when Lee Jun Il asked him.
“Oh, I have to tell you about this party.”
“What do you mean?”
“About your role. You don’t have to do anything special, just attend this party and…”
Lee Jun Il was about to say something when Yoo-hyun interrupted him by taking out his phone from his pocket.
“I’m sorry. I got a call from Song, the deputy director.”
“Did the negotiation end?”
“I guess so. He’s looking for me.”
He had received a message, but that was before he talked to Lee Jun Il, and it said that there was nothing urgent and he coulde slowly.
Lee Jun Il didn’t seem to know the details and nodded.
“Go ahead. He must be with the director.”
“Okay. I’ll see youter.”
“I’ll contact you. It was fun.”
“Yes. Me too.”
Lee Jun Il waved his hand with a friendly smile.
Yoo-hyun also smiled as if he was very happy.
Squeak.
As soon as he left the conference room, the smile disappeared from Yoo-hyun’s face.
He walked quickly, recalling the past when he had faced Lee Jun Il.
He was smiling like a nice person then, too, but his words were creepy.
-Everything can be expressed in data. If youbine data, you can read not only what’s inside people, but also their next actions. Even when a manager will betray you. Ha ha! Just kidding.
It was not just the fact that he could read people based on data that scared him.
The problem was his cruel methods.
Lee Jun Il used the data he collected without any scruples to crush the forces that interfered with Shin Kyung-soo.
He didn’t hesitate to make up false charges.
Thanks to him, many people and organizations that spoke the truth were executed by his de.
Shin Kyung-wook, the vice president, had copsed helplessly at a critical moment because of him.
Yoo-hyun, who had witnessed the process, knew Lee Jun Il’s skills better than anyone.
How far had he gone?
The fact that he had formed a TF meant that he had a solid base.
There was a high possibility that data collection was already taking ce in all directions.
Beep.
Even at this moment when he passed the gate entrance with his ID card, his data was being updated.
The CCTV cameras in the elevator and in front of the entrance of the 32nd floor were also under observation.
Ding ding ding ding.
The fingerprints left when he pressed the password at the office entrance were also likely to be on his data list.
He wouldn’t go that far, but Lee Jun Il was that kind of person.
He could tell by looking back at the process of handling the corruption at the Wonju factory.
Maybe he was even looking into the chairman’s office.
What did that mean?
Shin Kyung-soo’s biggest enemy, Shin Kyung-wook, the vice president, was obviously a target of surveince.
Lee Jun Il’s hand might have already invaded deep.
Yoo-hyun stopped and guessed Lee Jun Il’s whereabouts.
He heardughtering through the closed door of the office.
“Ha ha ha ha!”
As Lee Jun Il had said, Yoon Joo Tak, the vice president, was here.
Did he even imagine that he was being watched?
Yoo-hyun smiled bitterly and opened the door quietly after knocking.
Squeak.
Yoon Joo Tak, the vice president, who had a smile on his face, greeted Yoo-hyun.
“The star of today has finally arrived.”
“Oh, my! Manager Yoo, I missed you.”
Then, Joo Jae Oh, the executive director, who was sitting next to him, showed a friendly expression to Yoo-hyun.
What kind of good rtionship did they have that they missed him so much?
It was ridiculous.
Yoo-hyun hid his inner thoughts and greeted them politely.
“Hello.”
“Come and sit here.”
Thump thump.
Song Hyun Seung, the deputy director, who was facing the two, tapped the sofa next to him with a pleased smile.
He also looked very happy.
“Yes. Thank you.”
As soon as Yoo-hyun sat down, Song Hyun Seung briefly recited the result of the negotiation.
“Maria Carlos was very friendly. She agreed to coborate with Naru Power on most of the things you proposed.”
They were the ones who had seen Yoo-hyun’s performance firsthand.
There was no need to brag about it here, so Yoo-hyun humbly said.
“I just revived the concept that Manager Na had proposed.”
“It was your merit to revive a concept that only existed. Thanks to you, the Spanish royal family backed us up. It was an amazing idea.”
“It was possible because we had a high-level smart control technology.”
Yoo-hyun was not just saying that.
