Inside the office of the mobile sales and marketing manager.

Thud.

“...”

The expression of Executive Director Jo Chan-young reflected faintly on the monitor, was not good.Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates

-HP delays the launch of its next-generation PDA? Facing difficulties in supplying parts.

That was the title of an electronic newspaper article.

Why was HP’s news included in the news summary prepared by the LCD business division’s PR team?

The reason was simple.

Hansung Electronics was the largest supplier of LCD panels.

The interview with HP’s executive implied that there was a problem with the LCD panel.

There was no way to refute it, as there was indeed a problem with the HPDA3 panel that was supplied for testing a while ago.

They had a plausible improvement plan, but HP was also showing signs of discontent with the delayed parts supply.

And they even resorted to this kind of media play.

“Damn.”

Ring ring.

Just then, the phone rang.

Why did the uneasy feeling always come true?

-Executive Director Jo Chan-young come over right now.

“Yes. I understand.”

As soon as the mobile group manager finished speaking, Executive Director Jo Chan-young really ran out.

He knew from his voice that An Jun-hong, the executive director, was quite angry.

And he guessed that the reason was probably right.

Damn, Apple and HP are both a mess!

Jo Chan-young bit his lip.

After Jo Chan-young entered the mobile group manager’s office.

There was a loud scream inside.

Even the sound of something heavy falling could be heard.

The secretary outside the office looked calm as if it was a usual occurrence.

“I’ll do my best.”

“Don’t do your best, do well! Well!”

“Yes, yes. I’ll keep that in mind.”

“Then get out of here and fix it!”

Jo Chan-young received back what he usually said to his subordinates from An Jun-hong, the executive director, and cautiously came out.

“Ah, this frustration...”

He heard a sigh from behind him and Jo Chan-young clenched his teeth.

He turned his head away quickly and walked briskly as soon as he met eyes with the group manager’s secretary.

He looked angry as if he was venting his anger on someone else.

“What?”

The group manager’s secretary snorted and looked at the monitor.

Then she quickly typed a message on the company messenger window.

-It just ended. Your manager’s face is red. He might be cranky when he comes down.

-Thanks, sis. Anything else?

-HP is all there is. The Apple meeting seems to be over. I don’t think there’s anything else that overlaps with you?

Then the office door opened and An Jun-hong, the executive director, came out.

“Min-joo, how’s the channel company meeting?”

“I’ve only set up a tentative date for next week. Should I make a reservation?”

“Yeah. Make a reservation and put Jo as the presenter. Let him report directly.”

“Yes. I’ll let him know.”

She nodded calmly and put her hand on the keyboard naturally.

-Awesome! The channel guys are coming again. Your manager will report directly. Group manager’s order.

-What, really? That’s crazy.

Across from the manager’s office seat.

Lee Ae-rin, who was on the company messenger, smiled and sent a message to yoo.

“Are you okay?”

“Yeah. I’m fine. He’s always like that.”

He’s such a nice person.

That’s why he got everything taken away by Shin Chan-yong, the section chief.

-What’s the point of working hard like a fool? His performance is like that. You have to be smart.

He remembered what Shin Chan-yong had said to mock Kim Young-gil in the past.

“What are you doing? Let’s go up.”

“Yes.”

Of course, things are different now.

And the outcome has changed too.

The one who had some leeway was Kim Young-gil.

And the one who lost everything because of his greed was Shin Chan-yong.

HP, Channel, Apple.

All of them were big projects that had been put on hold.

The mobile sales and marketing manager and his team had to go through a stormy time.

Among them, Apple was the one that went well.

“Kim, assistant manager, you must feel relieved now?”

“That’s right. They said it was Apple’s fault. But they didn’t apologize?”

The cause of the problem was the new Apple chip.

It behaved abnormally unlike the promised specs.

It was clear that yoo’s discovery and Kim Young-gil’s analysis helped with the verification.

But they didn’t apologize.

“What do you mean apologize? You should be grateful that they let it go quietly. Right?”

Manager Kim Hyun-min asked and Kim Young-gil pursed his lips.

He looked like he had something to say with his hands on his knees and his nose flared up.

“I...”

Everyone in the meeting room looked at Kim Young-gil.

At that moment, Kim Young-gil bowed his head deeply.

“I’m sorry.”

“Hey, hey, what are you talking about? Why are you sorry?”

Kim Hyun-min waved his hands frantically and was so flustered that no one else could say anything.

But Kim Young-gil continued to speak.

“I showed you my poor side because it was hard.”

“...”

His sincere voice echoed in the meeting room.

“I felt so inadequate that I couldn’t muster up the courage.”

“...”

It was also courage to admit one’s shortcomings.

Today, Kim Young-gil showed courage that yoo had never experienced before.

What made him like this?

“But thank you all for helping me first.”

Kim Young-gil looked at yoo’s eyes.

Then he bowed his head again.

“I’ll try to reach out first from now on.”

“...”

As the extremely serious atmosphere continued, no one could open their mouths.

They just exchanged glances as if to say what was going on.

Then Kim Hyun-min chuckled.

“What is this? Hey, Park, assistant manager. He’s worse than you.”

“Manager.”

“Don’t worry about that stuff and use honorifics properly. What is yoo? Don’t act like you’re close and cause trouble for yoo.”

“Yes, yes. I got it. yoo is fine, right?”

“Yes. Let’s go in, Jun-ki.”

yoo smiled and led him inside the company.
