Real Man-Chapter 594:

Yoo-hyun greeted the man with a round face and striking eyes first.

“Team Leader Jang Jae-ho, nice to meet you.”

“Oh, oh, Manager Han.”

“Why are you so awkward? We talked a lot on the phone.”

Jang Jae-ho was the team leader who had opposed Yoo-hyun the most when he pushed for the semiconductor display.

Yoo-hyun had used his passionate obstruction to see through the inner workings of the Future Product Research Institute.

As Yoo-hyun recalled the old memories, Jang Jae-ho smiled awkwardly.

“That’s right. Hehe. That’s true. So, what’s up?”

“I wanted to ask you something about the handover. You’ve worked hard for us, haven’t you?”

“No, no. It’s not hard. It’s what I have to do.”

“I know it’s been tough for you between the Future Product Research Institute and the Process Team.”

As Yoo-hyun spoke directly, Jang Jae-ho waved his hand.

“It’s okay. We can handle it.”

“Don’t you think the employees are having a hard time? There’s no reason to take on someone else’s work.”

“Can’t we talk about it later? I’m a bit busy.”

Maybe because he mentioned the uncomfortable truth, Jang Jae-ho drew a line with Yoo-hyun.

When he tried to ask more, he got up from his seat.

It seemed that he wouldn’t change easily as expected.

The other team leaders were also in the same situation.

Oh Young-pyo, the team leader, avoided Yoo-hyun altogether, and Ha Tae-min, the team leader, was stingy with his words.

Yoo-hyun hit the nail on the head of Ha Tae-min, the team leader of the Future Leading Technology Team.

“Team Leader Ha, why did you raise a special work on this weekend? You don’t have a busy schedule.”

“The other teams are having a hard time. This is when we help each other.”

“We only need people who can work, why do we have to do this?”

“Stop it. We have our own way.”

His face was full of dissatisfaction, but Ha Tae-min hid his true feelings.

He put up a wall that prevented him from getting closer, and there was no way to help him.

“Is this how it goes?”

Yoo-hyun sneered at the conservative behavior of the team leaders.

Yoo-hyun had already anticipated that the team leaders would not move.

If they didn’t listen, he had no choice but to use a stronger method for them.

Yoo-hyun sorted out his thoughts and met the employees next.

Since it was a request from a leader of a relatively high department, the employees were reluctant to refuse the work interview.

The team leaders couldn’t stop them, they just asked them to be careful.

Maybe that’s why?

The faces of the employees who opened the door and came in were all stiff.

Cha Mi-kyung, the senior who was facing Yoo-hyun in the conference room, was no exception.

Yoo-hyun offered a can of coffee to her with a cold expression.

“Have some coffee. Hyun-woo said you would like it, so he specially picked it for you.”

“I’m fine. Why did you call me?”

Cha Mi-kyung pushed the coffee aside and asked bluntly.

She was so busy that she had her time taken away, so she was annoyed.

Yoo-hyun calmly reviewed her work.

“Do you have a meeting with the purchasing team tomorrow?”

“Yes. I have to match the parts supply schedule by Monday morning.”

“I see. But why are you doing the follow-up work for the purchasing team? You raised a weekend work for that, right?”

“Because I’m in charge. I have no choice because the schedule is tight.”

The purchasing team orders or checks the supply schedule from the parts company.

The next step is to follow up on the parts.

It’s a work to receive the parts at the right time, and it takes a lot of work to write an additional report.

It’s obviously the purchasing team’s job, but Cha Mi-kyung tried to take it all by herself.

Is this just a problem of bad practice?

Yoo-hyun tried to confirm the facts and asked casually.

“Can’t you postpone the schedule? It doesn’t seem like a big problem if it’s late.”

“Late? What if my personnel evaluation score is cut?”

“You’re not a promotion case, are you? You don’t need to worry about the personnel evaluation, do you?”

That was the moment when Yoo-hyun went one step further.

Cha Mi-kyung’s eyebrows narrowed.

"Not a promotion case? Do you mean I don’t have to get a personnel evaluation?

“Of course not. I just asked because of the overall organizational atmosphere.”

“I know. You mean my evaluation score will be low because there are many promotion candidates. But still, I can’t get a C after all this hard work.”

Cha Mi-kyung’s voice was somewhat excited, and there was a reason why she had to push herself.

Han Sung’s personnel evaluation rating is divided into four grades: S, A, B, and C.

Since the promotion candidates were expected to take the high-performance S and A grades openly, the low-performance C grade went to the non-promotion candidates regardless of their work competence.

If she got a C, it would be ironically difficult to get promoted next year.

From her point of view, she was struggling to avoid the worst.

Yoo-hyun nodded and gave a meaningful answer.

“That’s right. The evaluation should be fair.”

“Fair is… Ha! No. I was a bit sensitive.”

Cha Mi-kyung, who calmed down her excitement, gave up with a resigned gesture.

Yoo-hyun looked at her and remembered what Jung Hyun-woo had said.

-Cha Senior’s mother is sick and hospitalized in Seoul. She has to visit her on weekends, but she doesn’t seem to be able to go this time.

Does it make sense that she can’t go to the hospital because of the personnel evaluation?

Yoo-hyun didn’t ask about this part, but instead tried to suggest a different solution.

“You don’t have to do the follow-up work for the purchasing team this weekend.”

“How? Are you going to do my work for me?”

As Cha Mi-kyung asked sarcastically, Yoo-hyun shook his head.

“No. I’m going to correct the wrong practice first.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“You’ll find out soon.”

Yoo-hyun smiled with determination.

That day, Yoo-hyun met many employees until late.

He opened their minds one by one and thought a lot.

Even when he left the factory at midnight, his thoughts continued.

He stopped.

Yoo-hyun turned his head and looked at the lit OLED 2nd factory 3rd floor, and Kwon Se-jung, the deputy who was looking at the same place, said.

“It’s awful. There are still a lot of people left.”

“That’s right. They have a lot of trouble.”

“There are a lot of problems, but it’s thanks to them that we did well.”

“Right. That’s why I want to change it more.”

Personnel evaluation issues, wrong work assignments, excessive attendance, etc.

It was the passion of the employees that supported the rotten organization.

Thanks to that, he was able to maintain a very respectable appearance on the outside.

Yoo-hyun, who created the organization, couldn’t feel it at all.

Kwon Se-jung, the deputy who was obsessed with his ideals, asked Yoo-hyun.

“But the team leaders won’t budge. Are you okay?”

“I’m fine. They’ll come to me first by tomorrow.”

“Well, they’ll come to their senses after they get hit by a Han Yoo-hyun bomb.”

“Stop talking nonsense and let’s go eat some rice soup to celebrate the overtime work.”

Yoo-hyun smiled and gestured to his colleagues who had worked hard with him until late.

They didn’t understand and blinked their eyes.

“Rice soup?”

“At this time?”

“Of course. This is the time to do it right. I’ll give you a hard time at the development team today.”

Yoo-hyun said coolly and took the lead.

Changing things also required a full stomach.

The next day came.

Cha Mi-kyung, the senior who had left work at dawn, took her seat in the conference room early to prepare for the meeting with the purchasing team.

She recalled what Yoo-hyun had said yesterday.

‘He’s going to make the purchasing team do their job properly?’

It was still a laughable logic of a desk head.

He didn’t care about the reality, but only about the principles.

Would the purchasing team care about the semiconductor display that was only a side?

The major contracts were already finalized.

They had no reason to voluntarily take care of the minor parts.

It was natural that they didn’t pay attention to the unimportant things.

On the other hand, the situation was completely different for the Future Module Development Team.

They had to secure the parts supply, such as the board and OLED devices, in order to meet the test product schedule.

They needed additional contracts for small quantities of parts, and they needed the help of the purchasing team for that.

In this situation, would a proper work division be possible?

It was a hopeless task to ask the person in charge to beg the purchasing team leader.

“It’s impossible.”

As Cha Mi-kyung shook her head, Oh Young-pyo, the team leader, frowned.

“Cha Senior, what are you doing without focusing?”

“I’m sorry.”

“Today’s coordination is very important, so pay attention. It’s your responsibility if it doesn’t work, so keep that in mind.”

It was the team leader’s responsibility, but Cha Mi-kyung couldn’t argue with that.

She had no choice but to nod.

“Yes. I understand.”

Bang.

Then, a completely unexpected person appeared, opening the door.

It was Yoo-hyun.

Yoo-hyun greeted Oh Young-pyo, the team leader, who was surprised.

He had a round face and a gentle impression, and he was the first team leader that Hyun-woo had picked.

He was close to the person in charge, so he heard a lot about Yoo-hyun.

“Team Leader Oh, I wanted to see you separately, but you kept avoiding me, so I finally met you.”

“What? No, that…”

“Oh, if you’re sorry for being rude to me when I was at CTO, I’ve forgotten it. We’re on the same team now, aren’t we?”

“…”

Yoo-hyun blocked the team leader’s rebuttal with a relaxed smile and sat down.

Next to him was Kwon Se-jung, the deputy who had investigated the relationship with the purchasing team.

Cha Mi-kyung, who was staring at the two blankly, asked.

“Manager, what are you doing here?”

“I wanted to check how the parts supply schedule is going.”

“I can report it to you after it’s done.”

“I think it’s right to greet the purchasing team leader since I’m here.”

“Why…”

As Cha Mi-kyung asked, Yoo-hyun answered calmly.

“I was also in charge of the initial price negotiation with Shinwa Semiconductor and the board. That’s why I’m interested.”

“I see…”

Cha Mi-kyung nodded, glancing at Oh Young-pyo, the team leader.

He calmed down his excited mind and smiled awkwardly.

“Manager Han has a point. It wouldn’t hurt to join in.”

“Thank you for understanding.”

“No, no. I should have called you first, but what. Just, be careful about one thing.”

“What is it?”

“This meeting is very important for our schedule. We have to keep it no matter what, so even if it seems unreasonable, please bear with it.”

Did he know that it was wrong at least?

Yoo-hyun nodded and asked.

“You mean we just have to meet the schedule, right?”

“That’s right. So please don’t interfere and stay still.”

“I’ll make sure you don’t have any problems with your work.”

Yoo-hyun smiled, but Oh Young-pyo looked very anxious.

He knew well how Yoo-hyun had pushed his work in the past.

On the other hand, Cha Mi-kyung, who didn’t know the details of the process of creating the Future Product Division, kept tilting her head.

The purchasing team leader arrived at the meeting 20 minutes later than the scheduled time.

He led the part leader and sat down in the seat without saying a word of apology.

He just nodded to Oh Young-pyo’s polite greeting.

But Yoo-hyun greeted him as if he was a new face.

“Oh, the famous Manager Han. Nice to meet you.”

“Yes, Team Leader. I wanted to see you.”

“Hehe. What’s so good about seeing me? Sit down first.”

Hwang Chan-sung, the purchasing team leader, sat down as if it was natural and gestured to Yoo-hyun who stood up.

Yoon Jin-kyu, the part leader who sat next to him, also looked very relaxed.
