Chapter 554:
Yoo-hyun, who was watching them with a satisfied smile, suddenly asked.
“By the way, are you two okay?”
“Why?”
“It seems like it will be hard to increase our staff for a while, given the situation we’re in right now.”
“We can’t increase it anyway, for security reasons.”
As Kwon Se-jung said, they had to be more careful about security since the takeover method had changed.
All the ns they had shared with Park Seung-woo today were confidential and could not be leaked.
“That’s why I’m saying this. I’m going to think about the next person after Hyun-woo.”
“I’m fine. I like going with a small elite team.”“I also think four people are perfect, including Hyun-woo senior.”
Yoo-hyun chuckled at the firm answers of the two.
“You still say that after seeing the changed n?”
“The method may have changed, but the goal is the same, right? We just have to seed in the semiconductor disy, don’t we?”
“Right. That’s also the direction that helps the takeover.”
If they had only focused on the short-term goal, they might have had to revise the npletely.
But they had been running with a far-sighted vision from the beginning, so they had no reason to waver.
It was the same core reason, no matter what Jun-il did in the middle.
Kwon Se-jung pointed out this part.
“Then that’s it. We just have to do our part well.”
“Your words are right. There’s nothing we can’t do if we do our job well.”
Yoo-hyun gave a thumbs up to his colleague who made a good point.
Everyone had their own part to do.
Just as Yoo-hyun and Kwon Se-jung did, Vice President Shin Kyung-wook also worked hard to do his part.
It was his part to block the arrows that flew at him in the major executive meeting of Hansung Electronics.
“Richard, no matter how much you exin, the inquiries about the takeover of Shinwa Semiconductor won’t stop. What are you going to do?”
“The group is also putting a lot of pressure on us. You should take care of it yourself, as the person in charge.”
As the two foreign executives took turns tackling him, Vice President Shin Kyung-wook sharply countered.
“I only answered yes to the question of whether I would take over if I could.”
“…”
“Do you want me to apologize for that? Or do you want me to say that I won’t take over even if I can?”
“Hmph. You should at least nail it down that you’re not going to do the takeover. Otherwise, it won’t calm down.”
President Noh Yong-hwan, who was sitting in the seat of honor, looked embarrassed.
He was the sessor of Vice Chairman Shin Myung-ho and the leader of Hansung Electronics, but he couldn’t make Vice President Shin Kyung-wook back down.
“I’m d it happened.”
“What are you talking about?”
“I’m going to find out for myself if Shinwa Semiconductor is really a helpfulpany for us, as the media says.”
“What, what do you mean?”
“I’ll review it and exin it to the media if it’s not good. Do you have any objections?”
Vice President Shin Kyung-wook’s eyes shed, and the meeting room stirred.
A momentter, Vice President Shin Kyung-wook’s remark reached Jun-il’s ears.
He stiffened his expression as he received the report from Director Wi Su-hyuk.
“He’s not apologizing, but he’s going to officially review the takeover.”
“Yes. He said it was not a logical mistake, so they couldn’t stop him.”
“He did. He used our attack very cleverly. It’s as if he nned it.”
It should have copsed when he threw the takeover bait through the media, but it didn’t.
Vice President Shin Kyung-wook made a big deal out of his timely interview, and even took the initiative.
His unexpected actions also caused an unwanted side effect.
Director Wi Su-hyuk pointed out that part with a worried expression.
“It’s hard to bring up the SG Bio takeover because of this.”
“Right. The media will try to weigh Shinwa Semiconductor and SG Bio against each other.”
“Should we wait until it dies down?”
If they started to postpone the schedule for a trivial reason, the whole thing would shake.
This was the situation that Jun-il, who had nned everything in detail, hated the most.
“No. We can’t do that because of the opponent’s struggle. Increase the staff and respond quickly.”
“Understood.”
Director Wi Su-hyuk bowed his head at Jun-il’s strong order.
The waves caused by Vice President Shin Kyung-wook’s interview did not subside for days.
The news was reproduced every time Shinwa Semiconductor’s stock fluctuated.
This also affected Hansung Electronics’ stock price, so the shareholders moved actively.
The articles for and against each other shed, and the interest kept rising.
Click.
Kwon Se-jung, who was looking at the news in his Yeouido office, stuck out his tongue at Yoo-hyun.
“He’s definitely powerful, the vice president.”
“That’s because he has a usible story. He also has a history of failed takeovers in the past.”
“The fact that he formed a takeover team also had an impact, right?”
“Probably. Some news must have leaked out, knowingly or unknowingly.”
Vice President Shin Kyung-wook had formalized the takeover team, following Yoo-hyun’s advice.
He had brilliantly broken through the crisis situation where arrows were pouring down on him with his own power.
Thanks to that, an unexpected benefit was created.
Kwon Se-jung switched the monitor screen and pointed out that part.
“That’s why Shinwa Semiconductor’s attitude changed. Look at this data.”
“When was it updated?”
“This morning.”
Yoo-hyun looked at the report that Kwon Se-jung had brought up.
Thest line added to it caught his eye.
-Shinwa Semiconductor’s semiconductor board price and schedule, to be proceeded as agreed in advance. Shinwa Semiconductor is strongly demanding this, and there is room for price reduction.
“Did you get the result from the purchasing team?”
Kwon Se-jung nodded at Yoo-hyun’s question.
“Yeah. I thought they would be cranky, but they moved when they saw the results. It was easy to settle because Shinwa Semiconductor also came out actively.”
“Shinwa Semiconductor must be impatient. They would want to show some results after Hansung joined the takeover after Micron.”
“Right. Hansung Electronics pushed them hard. Thanks to that, our resistance went in.”
“This is it. The Innovation Strategy Office might be having a hard time, but our work seems to be going better.”
“That’s right. The work is going so smoothly that I’m worried.”
Kwon Se-jung stuck out his tongue as if he couldn’t believe it.
Then, two messages came in a row on Yoo-hyun’s phone.
Ziing. Ziing.
Two messages came in a row on Yoo-hyun’s phone.
He chuckled as he checked the contents one by one.
“Things are going so smoothly, it’s amazing.”
The protagonist of the first message was Na Do-yeon, who had worked with him in the Group Strategy Office.
Yoo-hyun called her right away, as she asked him to contact her.
Soon, her voice came through the receiver, skipping the greetings.
-I have a new project added to my charge. That’s why I contacted you.
“A new project?”
-A promise is a promise, so I’ll tell you. The title is SG Bio takeover.
“Are you talking about the US biosimrpany?”
Na Do-yeon cut him off with a clear answer.
-Yes. But that’s it. I can’t tell you any more.
“I see. Thank you.”
-Huh? You were trying to find out somehow, but you sound calm?
Calm?
That was not the case.
‘Yes!’
Yoo-hyun was shaking his clenched fist and cheering inwardly.
Of course, he was calm on the outside.
“Ahem. It’s not like I can know anything by listening.”
-So you were just bluffing.
“Not really.”
-Whatever. Anyway, I paid off my debt to you. Right?
When he was in charge of strategy, Yoo-hyun had helped Na Do-yeon with her project in the process of moving Narutal Power.
His goodwill hade back to him as the exact information he wanted.
Yoo-hyun sincerely thanked her for returning the favor.
"Right. Thank you very much."1
-You don’t have to thank me. I’ll see you around.
Click.
Na Do-yeon hung up the phone, only leaving the necessary words.
She was a very unique character in many ways.
Yoo-hyun muttered as he looked at the nk screen.
“SG Bio.”
A cold smile hung on his lips.
Yoo-hyun had expected that Jun-il would take over apany with Shin Kyung-soo’s stake.
It was the most reliable way for Shin Kyung-soo to secure a majority of the group’s shares.
However, he didn’t know which pany’ he would take over with which ‘subsidiary’.
There was no way that Park Doo-sik knew what Yoo-hyun didn’t know.
-How can you stop the takeover without knowing the opponent’s strategy? And I can’t just wait. I’m in charge of the work, but it’s too frustrating.
He was very frustrated because he was in charge of blocking the opponent’s takeover in the backup n.
But the information that Na Do-yeon gave him a while ago neatly eliminated the anxiety factor.
‘Park Doo-sik will be very happy.’
He quickly passed on the information he had obtained much faster than expected to Park Doo-sik.
Now, it was up to him, the person in charge, to analyze SG Bio and find a way to use it against them.
If the first message was the key to finding out the opponent’s strategy, the second message was something that could hit the core of the opponent.
Yoo-hyun looked at the message that had no sender.
-Let’s do the deal since I received the deposit. I’ll wait for your contact. ck Swan.
There was no name, but he could tell who it was just by looking at the content.
He even had a nickname, so it was not a guess but a certainty.
It was Na Do-ha, whom he had met at Seohan University a while ago.
“How did this happen?”
Yoo-hyun had no intention of using the former subordinate and lost genius for a trivial benefit.
He needed a more constructive way to work together.
He called Park Young-hoon, not Na Do-ha, who was on his mind.
The phone rang a few times, and then Park Young-hoon’s voice came from the other side.
-You call so fast. Did you finish the urgent work?
“Yeah. I’m almost done.”
-Then let’s meet. I have something to tell you, as I saidst time.
Yoo-hyun also had something to say to him.
But Park Young-hoon’s voice was so low that he asked to make sure.
“What’s wrong? Is there a problem?”
-No. Let’s talk when we meet. How about the gym tonight?
“Deal. See you then.”
After ending the call, Yoo-hyun looked at the message that Na Do-ha had sent again.
His eyes stayed on the short message for a long time.
The situation had changed, but the work of the Future Technology TF went smoothly.
From this week, the Future Product team started to receive technology transfer from Hansung Electronics Future Product Research Institute.
In this process, Jang Jun-sik took care of theplicated paperwork.
The actual takeover work was handled by Jang Jae-ho, the team leader of the Future Board Design Team.
-Team leader Jang is working hard. He’s getting a lot of k, too. But he’s very persistent and good at it.
Yoo-hyun heard about the progress from Jung Hyun-woo, who was supporting him from behind.
‘Well, he’s a hard-working person, so he’ll do well.’
He trusted Jang Jae-ho, who had made so many phone calls to stop him when he was in the CTO.
He might get a lot of scolding from Kim Hak-il, but he would eventually do well.
Yoo-hyun shook off the list of additional tasks that came by email.
The work was going well, but there was so much to do.
