Chapter 543:
It was thanks to his hard work, but his sweat did not guarantee the oue.
Instead of tackling him, Yoo-hyun cheered him on with words of determination.
“Yes. I’ll make sure to back you up.”
“Then I’ll have to run harder.”
As he said, Park Doo-sik, the deputy head, only needed to run forward.
It was Yoo-hyun’s job to prepare the backup from behind.
At that moment, there was someone who heard about Yoo-hyun for the first time in a long time.
“Hmm, he’s betting on the TFunch ceremony.”
Sitting on his office chair, Lee Jun-il, the head of the department, repeated the words, and his right-hand man, Wi Suhyeok, the deputy head, continued with the next information.“It’s quite noisy in the disy department. But the executives are strongly opposed, so it’s likely to be canceled.”
“Well. Even so, I don’t think a manager can be easily defeated.”
“Do you want me to report the results?”
“What’s the point of getting reports when there’s nothing to gain? I’m fine with just hearing a word or two as I pass by.”
Lee Jun-il, the head of the department, who had briefly recalled Yoo-hyun, quickly dismissed the trivial memory.
Wi Suhyeok, the deputy head, who nodded his head, continued with the report.
“Understood. Next is the innovation strategy department. ording to the internal additional informationwork…”
“They’re moving separately, right?”
“Yes. That’s right. Their movements suggest that they’ve noticed our surveince.”
Wi Suhyeok, the deputy head, said with a stiff expression, but Lee Jun-il, the head of the department, looked rxed as if he had expected it.
“He’s not the crown prince for nothing. He’s quite cunning.”
“I’ll find out what they’re preparing as soon as possible.”
“Let’s see their childish y.”
Lee Jun-il, the head of the department, raised one corner of his mouth as if he had thought of something interesting.
Lee Jun-il, the head of the department, was not the only one who was moving behind the scenes.
As the TFunch ceremony approached one day ahead, many people moved.
In the office of the mobile business director in Ulsan, Kim Hanho, the vice president, opened his mouth.
“That young kid managed to negotiate with the Future Product Research Institute and Shinwa Semiconductor?”
“Yes. I don’t know the details, but the coordination is confirmed.”
As Park Beomjin, the CTO and executive director, nodded his head, Kim Hanho, the vice president, clicked his tongue.
“He’s really wasting his energy.”
This time, Song Pyeongsu, the executive director and head of the production technology center, intervened.
“Vice president, don’t worry. Even if they have the technology and the board, they can’t produce it.”
“Why not?”
“The estimated board cost is 40 dors per 1.8 inch. If you add OLED deposition, you need at least 50 dors.”
“That’s more expensive than a 20-inch monitor panel. What about the customers?”
The answer to that was given by Park Beomjin, the executive director, who had investigated this part.
“Two of the HMDpanies we contacted said they needed it, but not right away.”
“Wow. How can they start without any customers?”
Kim Hanho, the vice president, sneered and Park Beomjin, the executive director, answered.
“The president and Hong, the executive director, pushed him so hard that he seems to be drunk.”
“That’s interesting. I really want to step on him once.”
“Don’t worry. We’ll make sure he never rises again.”
Park Beomjin, the executive director, who had been grinding his teeth, shed his eyes.
At that moment, Yoo-hyun was sitting at his office table and answering a phone call.
A voice that pointed out the core of the matter came from the other side of the receiver.
The owner of the voice was Kim Hogul, the senior manager in charge of OLED mobile products.
-It’s still too risky tomercialize the semiconductor disy. They say they’ve secured the productivity, but there’s no customer to order in bulk.
“I know.”
-Hmm, you’re prepared for that.
“I can’t bring you a disappointing result after you’ve helped me so much, can I?”
Kim Hogul, the senior manager, hesitated for a moment at Yoo-hyun’s question.
It wasn’t a bad thing to hear, but the answer that came back was blunt.
-I don’t care if the result is good or bad. It’s not my business.
“It will be good for sure. You’ll get the benefits for helping me.”
-Well. Then try it as you promised.
“Yes. Thank you. Let’s have a drinkter.”
-Sure. Then I’ll hang up.
Kim Hogul, the senior manager, did not express his emotions until the end.
He flinched slightly at the suggestion of having a drink.
“He’s so worried that he even called me.”
Yoo-hyun chuckled as he looked at his disconnected phone, and Kwon Se-jung, the assistant manager, asked.
“Kim Hogul, the senior manager?”
“Yes. He mentioned the customer problem just like Kim Hyun-min, the senior manager.”
“They’re both very concerned.”
“They don’t know that Google is involved yet.”
Not only that Google was the customer, but also the size and purpose of the board were kept secret.
This had to be revealed at the TFunch ceremony.
Kim Hakil, the team leader, was preparing for a dramatic presentation, and Hong Ilseop, the executive director, was supporting him from below.
Kwon Se-jung, the assistant manager, pointed out that part.
“The results haven’te yet, right?”
“They’lle soon. If not, there’s nothing we can do.”
“Are you feeling relieved?”
“We’ve prepared a lot. We can persuade them anyway.”
As Yoo-hyun answered, Jang Junsik nodded his head vigorously.
“That’s right. I think this will work.”
“We’re the only ones who think so.”
Kwon Se-jung, the assistant manager, whoughed lightly, pointed to the TV on the table.
There was a list of attendees for the TFunch ceremony.
CEO, CTO, production technology center head, mobile business director, strategic product group head, Japan research institute head, management innovation manager, etc.
They were too grand for theunch ceremony of a TFposed of only three people.
Yoo-hyun answered as he looked at the names of the 10 key decision-makers above the executive level.
“We have one group head.”
“The bnce of power is totally off. Not only the other executives, but also the vice president is rumored to be angry.”
“We don’t care about the others. We only need to target one person.”
“Who is that?”
It was at that moment.
Beep.
Yoo-hyun’s phone rang and a message popped up.
-I sent you the video I received from Google. The price part is tentative, but I sent it after consulting with them, so you can refer to it. I also sent it to Oh, the executive director, as you said.
It was a text from Kim Hakil, the team leader, and it contained all the information he had been waiting for.
Yoo-hyun smiled and showed his phone screen.
Kwon Se-jung, the assistant manager, who was looking at the content, blinked his eyes.
“Who is Oh, the executive director?”
“Who else, this person.”
Yoo-hyun pointed his finger at the name of the key member of this project.
-Oh Ju-hwan, the executive director in charge of management innovation.
Kwon Se-jung, the assistant manager, nodded his head as he saw the name.
“That’s a good choice.”
Yoo-hyun chuckled as he saw that.
The preparation for a sessful ending was going smoothly.
Who would be interested in thepany’s investment and financial status?
It was Oh Ju-hwan, the executive director in charge of management innovation, who was directly responsible for that work.
He had enough power to decide the direction of the business.
Oh Ju-hwan, the executive director, blinked his eyes.
“Is this really possible?”
It was because of the email he received a while ago.
The email contained a result thatpletely overturned his previous thoughts.
Oh Ju-hwan, the executive director, hastily flipped through the file sent by the Future Product Research Institute.
Click. Click.
The amount of investment and funds required by thepany was 200 billion won, which was the same as the estimate.
But the expected time to recover it was too different.
Beep.
Then, a message from the mobile business director came to his phone.
-Oh, the executive director, let’s have a meal after the meeting tomorrow. It’s been a long time.
Could he even keep his sanity, let alone have a meal?
He quickly sent a rejection message and called Hong Ilseop, the executive director and head of the strategic product group.
This one call shifted the bnce of power.
The effect of the short call was evident the next afternoon, on Hong Ilseop, the executive director’s face.
Bang.
He entered the conference room on the 13th floor and smiled brightly even in a tense situation.
“Nice to see you, Park, the executive director.”
“Hong, the executive director, you seem to have a very good mood.”
Park Beomjin, the CTO and executive director, mocked him, but he calmly responded.
“Of course. It’s theunch day of the Future Technology TF.”
He then confidently stretched his hand toward the screen.
-Future Technology TF Launch Ceremony.
Arge letter on a white background showed the purpose of the attendance.
On the podium, Yoo-hyun and the other members of the Future Technology TF were preparing for the presentation.
Park Beomjin, the executive director, who saw Yoo-hyun, openly ridiculed him.
“A young leader who is green and a group head who doesn’t know anything about disy. Is that why you don’t know anything about the existing rules?”
“A young leader who is smarter than anyone and a group head who thinks about customers before disy. That’s why, right?”
“It’s funny. It seems like yesterday when Hong, the executive director, was ttering me when he first came in.”
“We’re still brothers in private. But this is not the ce for that, is it?”
The leaders of the two organizations with a proactive organizational personality shed with sharp eyes.
Hong Ilseop, the executive director, did not back down, and Park Beomjin, the executive director, raised one corner of his mouth.
“Let’s see how well you do.”
“Please help us if we do well.”
“Will that ever happen?”
It was then.
“President, hello.”
The atmosphere was cleared by the unusually early arrival of Lim Jun-pyo, the president.
The executives who attended theunch ceremony were at least at the executive level.
Each and every one of them had a say in deciding the direction of the business.
Lim Jun-pyo, the president, had said something when he gathered these people for the TFunch ceremony.
-Judge if it’s a technology that can really help thepany.
He also added that he could close the organization if it wasn’t.
It seemed quite tough, but it was what Yoo-hyun wanted.
Swoosh.
Thanks to that, Yoo-hyun, who stood on the podium, was able to face the sharp eyes directed at him.
‘Let’s see you open your mouth.’
‘I’ll smash itpletely.’
‘You’re making me tired with something ridiculous.’
How hard did they work to destroy the organization that suddenly popped up?
Thanks to their efforts, Yoo-hyun was able to easily produce the results.
And their still twisted hearts would be the decisive factor in opening Lim Jun-pyo, the president’s heart.
Yoo-hyun greeted the people with a sincere heart.
“Thank you for attending theunch ceremony of the Future Technology TF. I’ll start the presentation now.”
Pak.
As Yoo-hyun spoke, Kwon Se-jung, the assistant manager, turned off the lights behind him.
Only the screen and the podium were lit up in the situation, and Jang Junsik pressed the button.
Click.
The screen changed and the first page came up.
It should have been an introduction of the Future Technology TF, but there was apletely different page.
Buzz.
Yoo-hyun confidently opened his mouth in the restless atmosphere.
“As the mobile LCD panel price drops due to fiercepetition, we achieved an operating profit of 30 billion won with Retina Premium. If you look at this graph…”
The words were somewhatplicated, but the content was simple.
The mobile business division was doing very well.
Yoo-hyun turned the next page and mentioned the OLED panel after the LCD panel.
“As for Ilsung, they are making operating profit with mobile OLED, and we are also preparing to mass-produce OLED panels. If we apply the panel with the new technology from the CTO…”
This content was also the same.
The strategic product group and the CTO were working together to grow OLED.
Only two pages had passed, but question marks popped up in people’s heads.
‘Doesn’t that mean there’s no reason to do the semiconductor disy?’
Lim Jun-pyo, the president, who had seen Yoo-hyun’s presentation a lot, had the same thought.
