On the other hand, President Jeong Yeon-sik carefully checked the data prepared by his subordinates.

The types of navigation systems developed by NaviTime, the chips, software information, etc.

And also the compatibility with Hansung Electronics’ new LCD and the conditions proposed by Hyunil Automobile.

He checked everything that could have been done after the meeting and made a conclusion.

This was the first time he showed such a passion in recent days.

The others, including Assistant Manager Lee Jong-hoon, could not understand the sudden change of the president.

NaviTime was bigger than expected.

They used all five floors of the building as their office.

Not to mention, they had two factories in Gyeonggi-do and a considerable number of employees.

Manager Choi Min-hee expected a tough meeting and entered the entrance.

Then she heard a familiar voice.

“Manager Choi, hello.”

“Oh? Hello.”

It was Assistant Jo Han-jin, whom she had seen when she supplied LCD panels to NaviTime.

He was also the one who talked to Yoo-hyun.

Manager Choi Min-hee asked with a puzzled look.

“Assistant Jo, why are you outside?”

“I came to greet you. You are an important guest. Oh, is this Yoo-hyun, whom you talked to?”

“Hello. I’m Yoo-hyun.”

“Nice to meet you. Let’s go in.”

Manager Choi Min-hee looked at Assistant Jo Han-jin, who was politely guiding her, and tilted her head.

Yoo-hyun followed suit.

They had never seen such a thing in a customer meeting before.

It felt like they were being treated as executives.

Assistant Jo Han-jin led them to a place and Manager Choi Min-hee was dumbfounded.

“...”

It was not a conference room but an office.

Squeak.

“Oh, you’ve come a long way.”

The door opened and a middle-aged man with his hair swept to the side greeted them.

Surprised by the unexpected hospitality, Manager Choi Min-hee soon came to her senses and greeted him.

“Hello. I’m Choi Min-hee.”

“I’m Jeong Yeon-sik. I’ve heard a lot about you.”

While Manager Choi Min-hee blinked her eyes, Yoo-hyun looked closely at the man.

He had definitely seen that face before.

Where did he see it?

Then, President Jeong Yeon-sik reached out his hand to Yoo-hyun.

“You won’t refuse this hand, will you?”

Hand?

‘Ah! That time!’

Suddenly, the scene of his first day at work flashed in Yoo-hyun’s mind.

He helped a gold digger and was accused of being the culprit by that middle-aged man!

That man was President Jeong Yeon-sik.

Before he could recover from his surprise, another scene came to his mind.

-Put it away. And don’t take out money at times like this.

He handed Yoo-hyun some money as a reward and refused it with one word.

He didn’t want to help him for money anyway.

He also felt a bit offended by that.

The hand that President Jeong Yeon-sik mentioned was the hand that Yoo-hyun refused at that time.

‘He still remembered that.’

He didn’t think he was petty.

After all, thanks to him remembering it, he had this opportunity to meet him.

He was rather grateful.

Yoo-hyun smiled and shook his hand.

Squeeze.

And he greeted him politely.

“Nice to meet you. I’m Yoo-hyun.”

“I’m Jeong Yeon-sik.”

A coincidence became a connection and shone in an unexpected place.

Manager Choi Min-hee, who had been looking back and forth between President Jeong Yeon-sik and Yoo-hyun, felt something strange.

But the reality in front of her was more urgent.

She soon composed herself and continued with her presentation.

“The design of the built-in navigation system for Hyunil Automobile’s new release is...”

If the previous presentation focused on LCD panels, this time it expanded the scope.

“What did you think?”

“You are different from successful people. Thank you for showing me the image of a great adult.”

“This is embarrassing.”

It was not just a flattery.

If he was a person who made wrong decisions, NaviTime could not have survived for so long.

He seemed to have decided impulsively, but he showed signs of having prepared a lot under the water.

Whether it was true or not, Yoo-hyun’s words made President Jeong Yeon-sik happy.

“I have a good eye for people.”

“Hahaha, yes. You did that time too.”

He laughed heartily and Yoo-hyun said with a good humor.

“President, please speak comfortably. I’m too formal.”

“Really? Hmm. Since you say so, I guess I should.”

“What do you mean? You are the benefactor, not me.”

“Hahaha, this guy.”

President Jeong Yeon-sik’s tone changed drastically.

He had to see him often in the future, so it would be better to get closer.

Apart from that, Yoo-hyun thought he was worth it.

He didn’t look much different from an average mid-sized company president who was a bit stiff on the outside.

But there were few people who remembered gratitude and repaid it among them.

Especially in cases like this where there was no benefit for him.

That’s why he was more grateful.

Maybe that’s why he wanted to give back as much as he received.

That feeling came out in words.

“Please listen to what I’m going to say now as a young man’s spirit.”

“What?”

“In my opinion...”

Yoo-hyun told him only the main points.

After Yoo-hyun left,

President Jeong Yeon-sik called his employees above the level of manager and gathered them together.

And he displayed the mid- and long-term business plan that he had made with them at the beginning of the year on a large screen.

“President, what’s going on?”

“Do you think our company can survive like this?”

When Assistant Manager Lee Jong-hoon asked, President Jeong Yeon-sik asked back.

“It’s our job to make it survive.”

“You’re asking about the direction.”

President Jeong Yeon-sik was serious.

-The world will change rapidly in the future. Everyone will use navigation on their phones soon. All cars will be shipped with their own navigation systems. The demand for terminals will inevitably decrease. We can’t survive if we don’t change.

It was a time when they were popping champagne every day because of the high growth of navigation.

The demand was overflowing to the point where they couldn’t sell without it.

But why couldn’t he get the words of the new employee of Hansung Electronics out of his head?

He could dismiss it as a naive rookie’s words, but his words had persuasiveness.

It was not just because of his deep eyes and skillful speech.

‘He hit the nail on the head.’

His few words contained the problems and directions of the industry.

It was something that could not be said without a lot of thought.

At most five years.

That was the conclusion that President Jeong Yeon-sik came up with after combining the words of the young employee.

Of course, it could be wrong.

But he was always a leader who prepared for the worst.

That’s what made NaviTime today and a company that survived 10 years later.

-If we challenge and change, we might be able to turn the crisis into an opportunity. The choice is up to you, President.

And now.

He chose to challenge and change.

President Jeong Yeon-sik said firmly to his employees in front of him.

“We’re going to overhaul the mid- and long-term plan. It’s not time to struggle to be number one in navigation terminals!”

To make a company that was much bigger than now 10 years later, not a company that survived 10 years later.

NaviTime was moving.

At the same time.

Yoo-hyun was bombarded with questions from Manager Choi Min-hee.

“How do you know President Jeong?”

“Well...”

“Come on, tell me.”

“Actually...”

Yoo-hyun confessed honestly and Manager Choi Min-hee’s eyes widened.

Oh my god.

She was speechless at the surprising and amazing connection.
