Real Man-Chapter 574:
Kim Young-gil, the manager, suddenly asked Yoo-hyun, who nodded his head with a sigh.
“What’s your intention of sending me the report on the semiconductor display?”
“You’re good at coming up with ideas, manager. I’m just asking for your review.”
“Are you planning to dump this on me after the Apple deal is over?”
“You said there’s no specific assignment for this. Is that a problem?”
“No, it’s not. I just don’t know if it’s appropriate for me to review this here.”
He was in charge of the Apple phone project and had to transfer his work to the mobile business division.
Since he had completely dropped LCD, it was natural to switch to OLED according to the team’s work.
But there was nothing to plan for the OLED panel he was assigned to.
He wasn’t very interested in it, maybe because most of it was already decided.
On the other hand, Kim Young-gil, the manager, showed interest in the semiconductor display, which had many elements to touch.
The semiconductor display was an item that he couldn’t help but be curious about, from his perspective of having experienced both development and planning.
Seeing his positive reaction, Yoo-hyun changed the subject instead of pushing for a decision.
“It’s an uncertain matter anyway. Oh, manager, you know I’m going to the US first, right?”
“Yeah, I heard. Philip Schiller contacted you. You’re going to see Steve Jobs, right?”
“Yes, that’s what I’m thinking.”
“Being invited by Steve Jobs at this point, he must have been impressed by you.”
“I guess so.”
Yoo-hyun recalled what Steve Jobs had said after the Apple phone 4 presentation.
-I hope we can meet again sometime. I’ll make time for you once, no matter what happens to me.
He didn’t forget his promise with Yoo-hyun even after he resigned from the CEO position.
Rather, he wanted to meet him and conveyed his opinion through Philip Schiller.
Yoo-hyun was retracing the process when Kim Young-gil, the manager, asked him.
“Anyway, you’re going to the US again with me. Is this the third time?”
“We went together for the design exhibition and the Apple presentation, so it’s the third time.”
“This might sound out of the blue, but thank you.”
“Why? All of a sudden.”
“Technically, it was thanks to you that I could go on a business trip.”
“No way. You would have gone even without me. You were in charge of the Apple phone, right?”
It might have been different for the design exhibition, but the Apple presentation had a lot of room for that.
It was thanks to Kim Young-gil, the manager, who had handed over the results of his efforts to Yoo-hyun, that he was able to attend the Apple phone 4 presentation.
Kim Young-gil, the manager, who had no idea of the past, shook his head.
“If it wasn’t for the evaluation, it would have been hard, though.”
“You would have had a chance even without that. I’m serious.”
“Okay. Anyway, those two trips to the US were a turning point for me.”
“Really?”
“I realized how big and wide the world is. To be honest, I couldn’t find a direction for my career until then.”
The previous Kim Young-gil, the manager, worked very hard, but he thought he didn’t fit in planning.
He set his own limits because of his English complex and his engineering background.
Now that he had changed for sure, Yoo-hyun asked him with a good feeling.
“So you mean you have a direction now?”
“Of course. I even have a pretty big goal.”
“What goal?”
“I’m too embarrassed to tell you that.”
Kim Young-gil, the manager, waved his hand, but Yoo-hyun had a feeling of what it was.
Wasn’t it a goal to stand on the world stage?
Instead of saying that fact, Yoo-hyun handed him a can of coffee.
“Let’s talk about it over a drink in the US.”
“Yeah. I hope that time comes soon.”
Kim Young-gil, the manager, smiled brightly as he clinked his can of coffee.
Yoo-hyun also had a thick smile on his lips.
After sending off Kim Young-gil, the manager, Yoo-hyun sat by the window and looked at the distance.
The Han River was sparkling in the sunlight.
“A turning point.”
Just as Kim Young-gil, the manager, had said, the past Apple phone 4 presentation was a catalyst for change for Yoo-hyun.
Especially, Steve Jobs’ presentation gave Yoo-hyun a great resonance.
Thanks to that, Yoo-hyun widened his vision to the world and was able to grow faster.
Maybe Hyun-jin Gun is the same?
He picked up his phone as he suddenly thought of it.
After the call was connected, a voice came from the other side of the receiver.
-Yoo-hyun, I was just thinking about you and you called me.
It was the voice of another genius, Hyun-jin Gun, who was in the US.
Yoo-hyun’s trip to the US was decided, but the inside of Han Group was still busy.
One of the busiest people among them was Vice President Joo Jae-oh.
“Ha! What a slippery bastard. He escapes whenever I catch him.”
He slapped his forehead as he waged a silent war with Vice President Yoon Joo-tak.
The personnel 1 team leader explained the situation again.
“The director is moving fast. The strategy manager is also erasing the traces in Russia, so it’s hard to respond.”
“Do we have to ask for Mrs. Hong’s help after all?”
“That’s too risky. She won’t leave us alone if she knows the information we have.”
Vice President Yoon Joo-tak’s corruption was linked to the money laundering of the Royal Family.
From Mrs. Hong Jin-hee’s perspective, she had no choice but to eliminate Vice President Yoon Joo-tak.
But it was true that there was a lot of risk involved, as the personnel 1 team leader said.
As Vice President Joo Jae-oh’s worries deepened, it happened.
Bang.
The door opened and the personnel 2 team leader came up quickly and handed him a document.
“Manager, we got the evidence from Russia.”
“What? I thought it was laundered already?”
“I don’t know. It wasn’t there, but it suddenly appeared.”
“That doesn’t make any sense… Huh?”
Vice President Joo Jae-oh, who was incredulous, checked the document at that moment.
“Heaven is helping us.”
His lips curled up in a long smile.
On the other hand, Vice President Yoon Joo-tak’s face was not very good.
“What do you mean the data from Russia was leaked? I’m sure I cleaned it up!”
He yelled, and the voice of Song Hyun-seung, the senior manager who was restless on the other side of the phone, came.
-It’s a ghostly thing. I don’t know where the data came from, or why it came to me as a notification.
“Don’t tell me, Mr. Song, you’re working with Vice President Joo?”
-That’s nonsense. I’m dead if this blows up, why would I do that?
The corruption of the Russian deal was connected to Song Hyun-seung, the senior manager, and Lim Dong-chan, the former vice president who mediated it.
It was undeniable that they would lose their lives if they were caught, so Vice President Yoon Joo-tak nodded for now.
“I see. I’ll control Representative Heo through Former Vice President Lim, so you block it somehow.”
-Yes, I understand.
Vice President Yoon Joo-tak quickly made a decision after hanging up the phone.
Vice President Joo Jae-oh had somehow teamed up with Choi Sang-hyun, the manager in charge of management support.
It meant that he had secured a connection with Chairman Shin Hyun-ho.
What if this fact reached the chairman’s ears?
It would be a serious blow to the Royal Family as well.
Snap.
Vice President Yoon Joo-tak snapped his fingers and gave an order to his secretary who came close.
“Tell Manager Lee Jun-il. If this goes on, the safety of the Royal Family can’t be guaranteed.”
“That’s… He didn’t come to work today. His desk was also cleaned up.”
“What?”
Vice President Yoon Joo-tak’s eyes widened in disbelief at the absurd situation.
At that moment, Yoo-hyun was receiving a phone call from Russia.
-A corruption scandal about Han Sung Cluster 10 years ago was posted on a local newspaper in Russia.
Yoo-hyun was dumbfounded by Vice President Yeo Tae-sik’s words.
“Russia, not Korea?”
-Yeah. The focus is on the Russian officials who gave us the land permit. Representative Heo Jung-ro might be summoned.
“What about Senior Manager Song Hyun-seung’s response?”
-He seems to have no clue. The consul general is the same. free𝑤ebnovel.com
It would have been possible to cover up the problem if it had exploded in Korea, but Russia was a different story.
Even if there was no clear evidence, it would be noisy for a while since the news was out.
But how did Russia move first?
Yoo-hyun recalled the process and chuckled.
“He’s more poisonous than I thought.”
-What do you mean?
“Never mind. How long are you going to stay in Russia?”
-I think I’m done with my work. It was all cleaned up before I could do anything.
Senior Manager Song Hyun-seung’s evidence of corruption had leaked out without him being able to block it.
Vice President Joo Jae-oh had helped him set off the bomb well.
There was nothing for Vice President Yeo Tae-sik to do, who had experienced both development and planning.
He had already heard about this and asked Yoo-hyun.
“Then are you going to the US?”
-The US will be first visited by Deputy Manager Park Doo-sik. I’m going to check if the internal situation of SG Bio is correct in Korea.
“That makes sense. It probably is.”
-If so, it’s a huge luck that followed me. This kind of data just fell out of nowhere.
“I guess so. It’s really lucky.”
Was it really just luck?
He said so, but Yoo-hyun knew it wasn’t.
Yoo-hyun hung up the phone and put it on the window sill.
He thought of what Manager Lee Jun-il had done and laughed sarcastically.
“He was a tougher person than I thought.”
It was true that Yoo-hyun had prepared an escape route for Manager Lee Jun-il, but he only set up the big picture.
The details were left to Manager Lee Jun-il.
He thought it would backfire if he restricted him too much in the trivial parts.
That’s how close he was with Shin Kyung-soo.
Instead, he planned to pressure him by arranging a meeting between Shin Kyung-soo and the chairman, so that he wouldn’t have any other thoughts.
But what the hell?
Manager Lee Jun-il started to play hard before Shin Kyung-soo moved.
The evidence was that he attacked from Russia, leaking the corruption of Vice President Yoon Joo-tak and the internal data of SG Bio.
In this case, no matter how great Shin Kyung-soo was, it would be difficult to cover up the problem easily.
Not only because it was a bomb that involved international politics and issues.
Shin Kyung-soo was not in Korea right now, so he had to limit his actions.
It would be nice if he knew sooner, but the group strategy office was too busy with the war.
Manager Lee Jun-il timed it so well that he had no choice but to do so.
No, he made the timing so that he had to do so.
Maybe by now he had set up bombs to explode in stages and disappeared quietly.
In front of Manager Lee Jun-il’s bold moves, Yoo-hyun suddenly remembered an old memory.
-Manager Lee Jun-il knows too much for his own good. It’s kind of annoying.
At that time, Chairman Shin Kyung-soo fired Lee Jun-il, the president of Han Sung Electronics, who was a meritorious official.
There was a bit of trouble in the middle, but that wasn’t the reason.
The fundamental reason was that he didn’t need Manager Lee Jun-il’s power anymore.
Manager Lee Jun-il, who was hit in the back of his head, collapsed so easily that he was powerless.
He was kicked out as if he was running away, after losing the data center.
Yoo-hyun, who had seen the process with his own eyes, wondered.
What if Manager Lee Jun-il had been prepared? Would he have been so easily defeated?
The answer to his long-standing curiosity was clearly revealed in Manager Lee Jun-il’s actions.
‘Shin Kyung-soo must have a headache.’
Yoo-hyun’s lips curled up naturally at the upcoming interesting situation.
Then, Kwon Se-jung, the deputy, asked him mockingly.
“Are you too happy to think about leaving us and going to the US?”
“Of course. I’m so happy I could die.”
“Then buy a lot of delicious things when you come back.”
“What did you do to deserve that?”
As Yoo-hyun joked back, Kwon Se-jung, the deputy, pointed to the grass doll on the window.
“I cut the grass doll’s hair amazingly, didn’t I?”
“That’s true. But are you okay without me?”
“I’m fine. We’ve passed the big hurdle, so there’s not much to do now.”
It wasn’t that there was nothing to do, but it was true that things were going well.
