Chapter 518:

Yoo-hyun opened his mouth with a clear vision in his head.

“I’m going to start with acquiring Shinwa Semiconductor, and make Hansung Electronics the best company.”

“Huh?”

Everyone looked dumbfounded at his sudden remark.

Yoo-hyun didn’t hesitate and declared his determination.

“That’s why I want to create a company where not only the people here, but all the employees can have dreams and pride. I want to create a company where everyone can shine.”

Park Doo-sik, the deputy manager, snorted.

“You talk as if you’re the president or something.”

“If necessary, I’ll do that too.”

“...”

Was it because Yoo-hyun had never stepped up before?

Everyone was speechless at his unexpected ambition.

Among the blinking people, Vice President Shin Kyung-wook smiled.

“If you have that much resolve, I should help you.”

“It won’t be easy.”

Yoo-hyun smiled back firmly.

The moment Vice President Shin Kyung-wook made up his mind, the direction was set.

The problem was how to go in that direction.

It had been a long-standing issue.

Even Vice President Shin Kyung-wook, who had discussed with Yoo-hyun about the acquisition of Shinwa Semiconductor, found it hard to follow.

Naturally, it was impossible for other people to understand easily.

Yoo-hyun presented a concrete plan to the still bewildered people.Rêađ latest cha/p/ters on no/v/e/l(b)in(.)c/o/m

“The expected response of the group strategy office’s strategy manager when the acquisition of Shinwa Semiconductor is announced is...”

The very realistic and detailed content cleared the fog in their heads.

At some point, they began to see the tasks and crises they had to face.

The weight of Yoo-hyun’s words came to them belatedly.

Thud.

Yeo Tae-sik, the executive director who had been listening, put his glasses on the table.

This small action showed the psychological pressure he was under, who was known for his calmness.

“So we have to do all this to have a chance?”

“Yes. That’s right.”

“Phew. Okay.”

The executive director took a short breath after confirming Yoo-hyun’s nod.

Although it was worth arguing, he made a different choice as the second-in-command of the innovation strategy office.

He stepped forward, leaving Vice President Shin Kyung-wook behind.

“I think it’s better to talk about how to do it than to ask questions in this situation. What do you think?”

“I agree. There’s so much to talk about, I think we’ll have to stay up all night just to sort it out.”

“Then why don’t we talk while having a meal...”

Deputy Manager Park agreed, and Manager Park Seung-woo nodded and spoke.

Before Manager Park Seung-woo’s murmur was delivered, Executive Director Yeo Tae-sik opened his mouth.

“Then let’s start right away. Deputy Manager Park, you take notes, and Manager Park, you summarize.”

“Yes, sir.”

Deputy Manager Park, who stood next to the whiteboard, picked up a pen.

Manager Park Seung-woo also reluctantly put his hand on the keyboard.

He looked very sorry, but no one noticed him because they were all focused.

Deputy Manager Park took charge of the progress.

“I made a list of keywords from what Manager Yu said. Since nothing is confirmed, I’ll proceed with a free discussion.”

The whiteboard had a timetable for the acquisition of Shinwa Semiconductor.

It was filled with difficult contents in a tight schedule.

They hesitated, but they didn’t back down and expressed their opinions.

“To find out why Micron lowered the acquisition price...”

“In case of additional bidding from competitors...”

“Considering the current government’s economic policy...”

The whiteboard was quickly filled up, and conflicts of opinions also occurred here and there.

“I think the announcement of the acquisition of Shinwa Semiconductor should be done after the internal preparation, around the third quarter settlement.”

“We need to move it up to meet the schedule. If you think about it from a different perspective...”

Even Manager Park Seung-woo challenged Vice President Shin Kyung-wook’s opinion.

But no one thought it was strange.

Rather, it created an atmosphere that they had to actively participate to make it work.

‘I can see how the innovation strategy office was like.’

He closed his mouth for a moment and left Yoo-hyun behind, Manager Park Seung-woo opened his mouth.

His voice, which had lost its playfulness, sounded quite serious.

“You suddenly stepped up like this, it’s because of the person you met today, right?”

“I don’t know.”

Yoo-hyun shrugged, and Manager Park Seung-woo calmly said.

“I had a senior when I was in the U.S. A senior who was doing MBA in the next neighborhood.”

“Then he must be in Korea now.”

“No. He went to Wall Street. His role model was Director Shin Kyung-soo.”

“I see.”

He just agreed, but Manager Park Seung-woo made an exaggerated gesture.

“You know how famous he is. And his title is so cool. The second generation of Korean chaebol, conquering the U.S. Wall Street. It’s like a movie poster, isn’t it?”

“The title is childish, but I guess so.”

“Haha. Right. But he quit.”

“Why? He must have been a well-respected person if he went to Wall Street.”

“He had a conflict with Director Shin Kyung-soo, I guess.”

“What kind of conflict?”

It wasn’t a problem that he cut 30 percent of the staff overnight, or that he wiped out the growth potential.

Shin Kyung-soo was not the kind of person to hesitate over such things, and the senior was not the kind of person to go without knowing.

The real problem was what happened next.

“When the employees rebelled, he apparently did some dirty work under his orders. You know, framing them for embezzlement, bringing in competitors, harassing the employees.”

“That’s nasty.”

Yoo-hyun frowned at his dirty deeds.

“Yeah. It was nasty. He did it with a lot of guilt and fear, but he sold the company again.”

“Why?”

“It turned out that he and the CEO of the company had been playing a rigged game from the start. They had no intention of saving the company, but they trampled on people like that.”

“I see.”

It was a typical Shin Kyung-soo behavior, and it was already familiar to Yoo-hyun.

Yoo-hyun nodded indifferently, and Manager Park Seung-woo put some weight on his voice.

“My senior was really shaken. He must have felt guilty and scared about this. How could he work again in this situation?”

“It must have been hard.”

Yoo-hyun sympathized sincerely, unlike his past self who had chosen success over conscience.

Manager Park Seung-woo paused for a moment and said in a low voice.

“To be honest, I don’t know Director Shin Kyung-soo well. I’ve seen him, but he’s not someone I can figure out.”

“He doesn’t show his true self.”

“Right. But I know he’s dangerous. Everyone grovels in front of him, so I know he’s very powerful.”

“He is. Very much.”

It was not just a word, Shin Kyung-soo was the peak of the Royal Family.

He didn’t have the title of chairman, but he already had a strong influence on the whole group.

If he had more time and formed his own faction, he might be untouchable.

Yoo-hyun was lost in thought, and Manager Park Seung-woo gave him a stern look.

“But you know what I know?”

“What?”

“He’s done for.”

“Why?”

“He messed with the wrong person.”

“Who?”

“My mentee.”

“...”

Yoo-hyun blinked at his absurd words.

Manager Park Seung-woo added another spoonful.

“And he didn’t even know I was next to him.”

“What do you mean?”

“When we join forces, there’s nothing to be afraid of. It’s game over. Right?”

He didn’t just say it, he even stretched out his fist like a scene from a boy’s comic.

His eyes were very serious, as if to prove his sincerity.

“...”

“Don’t you know how to bump fists when you join forces? Why, you’ve seen it in movies...”

Yoo-hyun lowered his head, unable to watch, and Manager Park Seung-woo tried to explain.

This was also a very Manager Park Seung-woo-like scene.
