Chapter 476:

Yoon Jutak, the executive director, furrowed his brows as he sensed a slight change in Yoo-hyun.

"You don't seem very interested, do you?"

"I thought you would make such an offer, since you came here."

"Of course."

"I think I'm in a better position to receive more right now."

Yoo-hyun shrugged his shoulders boldly, and Yoon Jutak asked with interest.

"Why do you think so?"

"I made a decisive contribution to attracting the Apple factory investment and supplying the Apple phone 4 panel. I also convinced Vice President Lim Jun-pyo with the Retina Premium plan. Do you want me to go on?"

"No. I came here knowing enough about your achievements."

"I thought you would."

With a relaxed smile, Yoo-hyun took the lead in the negotiation.

It was an uncomfortable situation, but Yoon Jutak had no choice but to make the first proposal.

"Then what do you want me to do for you?"

"Promotion is ultimately for money, isn't it?"

"Not because you want to go higher?"

"Of course, I want to be a president. But I'm not foolish enough to sacrifice the money I can get now for an uncertain future."

"That's right. Money is important."

"Money means value, after all."

Yoon Jutak nodded at Yoo-hyun's realistic suggestion.

He thought for a moment and then offered to Yoo-hyun.

"It would be perfect if you could get the Group Excellence Award. You would get promoted and paid. How about it?"

The Group Excellence Award was an award given to the best performers in the group, usually awarded to the group strategy office staff.

It was quite attractive, as it came with a salary increase, a special promotion opportunity, and a bonus of 50 million won.

It was a good compromise, but Yoo-hyun added one more thing.

"Before I answer, I want to tell you why I chose the group strategy office."

"Go ahead."

"The position of the group strategy office in the future direction of Hansung Group is..."

Yoo-hyun explained why it was wise to choose the group strategy office over the innovation strategy office, linking it to the future of Hansung Group.

His judgment that the innovation strategy office was bound to collapse was also a background explanation of why he clashed with Executive Director Shin Kyung-wook.

Yoon Jutak raised his eyebrows in front of the concrete direction and clear vision.

"You're a very thoughtful guy. You deserve the award."

"Thank you."

"And if you prove your vision, you'll get more. I'll support you fully."

Yoon Jutak touched his jacket sleeve and said.

It was a gesture he showed when he said something he didn't mean, and it hadn't changed then or now.

Yoo-hyun sneered inwardly and bowed politely.

"Thank you for acknowledging me."

"Let's do well from now on."

"Yes. I look forward to working with you."

Yoon Jutak reached out his hand, and Yoo-hyun grasped it firmly.

The two men, who had different thoughts, smiled as if they had made a promise.

It was after Yoo-hyun had tentatively agreed to move to the group strategy office.

Time passed quickly, and the preparation for the spin-off of the LCD business unit was almost over.

The 13th floor office was completely empty, even the desks were gone.

There was no place to sit in that place, where Yoo-hyun met the people he had grown fond of.

Kim Hyun-min, the manager, stepped forward and asked Yoo-hyun.

"What are you going to do, Yoo-hyun?"

"I have to rest for a while and then go upstairs."

"Is that good?"

"It's good. But I'll miss you, manager."

"Well, I'll miss you too..."

Kim Hyun-min was about to express his regret, when a playful twist came out of Yoo-hyun's mouth.

"Now there's no one to bother me, so I'll be bored."

"What did you say, kid?"

The people around them all burst into laughter, and Kim Hyun-min's face turned red.

Then Yoo-hyun bowed to him.

"Thank you for everything, master of rascals."

It was sincere, even though it was a joke.

As if playing a skit, Kim Hyun-min also changed his expression.

She was still by Yoo-hyun’s side, playing the accompaniment.

How could she survive in the company like this?

When Yoo-hyun was wondering, he got a phone call.

It was Maeng Gi-yong, the manager of the Ulsan factory, who had called him several times before about the issue of staying in Hansung Electronics.

-Deputy Han, or should I call you Manager Han now?

“Did the promotion announcement come out?”

-Yeah. I was shocked to see you became a manager. Of course, you’re the group excellence award winner, so it’s natural.

“Thank you. How about the others?”

-How about them. The manager became an executive director, as he told you before, and Jin-mok also became a senior engineer. And...

He heard that the Ultra High Resolution TF also became a division.

The members also received rewards like the Innovation Product TF, and many people were promoted.

It was good news, but Yoo-hyun was curious about someone else.

It was Jung Areum, the chief engineer and the diet doctor.

“What about her? Chief Engineer Jung.”

-Ha ha. Areum also became a senior engineer.

“That’s good. There’s no one like Senior Engineer Jung. You should catch her before it’s too late.”

It wasn’t just because she helped a lot with his mother’s side dish shop.

Maeng Gi-yong had regretted a lot after breaking up with her.

-Thank you. You even care about my future.

“She’s a good junior, right?”

-Oh, you’re so right. Oh, do you know that our company is having a launch ceremony today?

“Yes. The vice president is having a press conference, right?”

-Yeah. You must be interested, since you’re now in the group strategy office.

This press conference was organized by the innovation strategy office, so it didn’t matter much to him.

“Thank you. Anyway, thanks for calling me.”

Yoo-hyun finished the call with a gentle greeting, instead of teasing him.

Han Jaehui looked at Yoo-hyun with disdain.

“Why are you so flattering?”

“What do you mean flattering?”

“Manager, manager. She’s a good junior, right? Isn’t that flattering?”

Han Jaehui pretended to answer the phone with a bottle in her mouth, and Yoo-hyun immediately bowed his head.

Then he imitated the behavior that Han Jaehui showed at the drinking party with Manager Jang Hye-min a while ago.

“I was really struggling, but thanks to you, sister, I was able to overcome it. Sob. Thank you. Sister, no, manager, you’re my benefactor for life.”

Yoo-hyun copied the exact change of address, and Han Jaehui snapped.

“Hey. Yoo-hyun.”

“You’re not drunk, but you’re doing that again. Stop talking nonsense and listen to the landlord.”

Yoo-hyun said, and Han Jaehui gritted her teeth.

“Wait and see. I’ll find a place next to you and move out.”

“Really? That’s good. My father is worried about you, so let him monitor you in real time.”

“Ugh. You only learned how to tease me at work.”

Han Jaehui tried to drink a full glass of alcohol, but Yoo-hyun stopped her.

“Hey, the vice president is about to make a bombshell statement.”

“What does that have to do with me?”

“What do you mean? It’s your company. The company you’re going to start working at next week.”

Yoo-hyun pointed out, and Han Jaehui opened her eyes wide.

“That’s right. But what is the president going to say? He’s not going to say anything about me starting work, is he?”

Han Jaehui, who had no work experience yet, had no idea what was going on.

"Just watch it.”

Yoo-hyun shook his head and turned on the TV.

The press room was full of reporters.

The number of microphones on the podium showed the weight of this press conference.

Could they get so much attention just for the spin-off issue?

Zing.

As Yoo-hyun was imagining what was about to happen, he received a message from Oh Eun-bi, the reporter.

-The vice president is going to make a bombshell statement today. Don’t miss it.

Yoo-hyun already knew the rough content from Manager Park Doo-sik, but he guessed there would be more statements.

Otherwise, there was no reason for the reporters to mention a bombshell statement.

He thanked her for the reply and focused on the TV.
