Chapter 537:

Team Leader Kim Hak-il was a stubborn person who had been digging the same well for a long time.

He also had a personality that thoroughly ignored anyone lower than him.

He was such a person, but Yoo-hyun successfully made him sit at the table and moved on to the next scenario.

“Our company considers OLED as the main display of the future, and additionally...”

Yoo-hyun’s voice calmly explained the future plans of Hansung Display.

Team Leader Kim Hak-il, who had been listening patiently because of the word president, furrowed his brows.

“Wait. I think you have something wrong here.”

“What part bothers you?”

“Why does semiconductor display come up in the middle? It has nothing to do with Hansung Display.”

“We think that display using semiconductor is essential for the future.”

“Wow. You can’t even do OLED properly and you’re whining about this?”

Team Leader Kim Hak-il snorted, but he didn’t get angry as expected.

It wasn’t because Yoo-hyun had laid the groundwork well.

It was more because there was a similar content in the report that Team Leader Kim Hak-il had written three years ago.

Yoo-hyun, who confirmed that there was still a spark left, smiled at Jang Jun-sik.

“Jun-sik, show it to him.”

“Yes, sir.”

Jang Jun-sik, who had already connected the cable to the laptop, pressed the button.

Pop.

Soon, the screen showed the image through the projector.

-Collaboration plan for productization of semiconductor display.

Several categories for productization were listed below the title.

The main point was that Hansung Display would be involved in a significant part of them.

Yoo-hyun was about to explain, but Lim Chae-yeol, who was sitting next to Team Leader Kim Hak-il, objected.

“They had to involve Korea Photonics Technology Institute, Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute, and Hansung Technic staff for this. And you think Hansung Display can handle this difficult task?”

“Yes. We plan to build our own equipment infrastructure.”

“What can you do with just equipment? What about technology?”

“We intend to transfer it from the Future Product Research Institute.”

“Do you have anyone to transfer it to?”

“All the CTO staff who were directly or indirectly related to semiconductor display will join us.”

As the word CTO came out of Yoo-hyun’s mouth, Lim Chae-yeol sneered.

“Ah, those display CTO bastards who only mess up even when they’re spoon-fed?”

“With the cooperation of the Future Product Research Institute, we can...”

As Yoo-hyun’s mouth uttered a similar content to his proposal that had been rejected in the early stage, Team Leader Kim Hak-il’s mouth twisted.

He thought of hundreds of reasons why it wouldn’t work in his mind and his eyes sparkled.

“Why do you keep talking about cooperation and transfer? Why do we have to waste our energy on a project that won’t work?”

“If we successfully transfer the productization technology, it will be a great achievement for you, Team Leader.”

“Ha, really. Who are you going to sell this to? There’s nothing for us even if we sell a hundred of them. It’s just a waste of energy.”

Team Leader Kim Hak-il wasn’t saying nonsense.

The foreign executives emphasized performance, and from the perspective of the Future Product Research Institute, simple technology transfer was meaningless.

It was much more important how much sales they could generate with the transferred technology.

-Do you know how hard the Future Product Research Institute guys are trying to make a blockbuster product? If I could transfer technology to such a product, I would sell my soul.

Yoo-hyun recalled Executive Director Hong Il-seop’s advice and decided to wrap up the situation.

Creak.

He pulled the chair and sat down, drawing attention with his sharp voice.

“What if we sell ten million units?”

“What? Ten million units?”

Team Leader Kim Hak-il asked in surprise, and Yoo-hyun emphasized again.

“Yes. Ten million units a year.”

“You’re crazy. A delusional manager.”

In front of the absurd words, Team Leader Kim Hak-il’s attitude was blatantly dismissive, but Yoo-hyun didn’t get excited at all.

He maintained his calmness as always and shook his opponent.

“Google is not a delusional customer, is it?”

“Huh. Google?”

“Yes. Google contacted the Future Product Research Institute earlier this year to make smart glasses.”

The expected sales volume that the promotion team had caught at the time was ten million units.

It was a far-fetched figure, but the name value of Google made it possible.

A blockbuster product was mentioned, but Team Leader Kim Hak-il’s eyes became colder.

“I heard from Executive Director Hong, but you also know why the deal didn’t go through, right?”

“I know that the core issue was the supply of semiconductor substrates.”

“Then why are you saying such useless things?”

“I didn’t come here to say useless things.”

“Discuss again?”

-You made a good offer, but we cut it off too quickly. This time, we have put semiconductor display in our portfolio, so it will be different from then. Also...

As he heard the words that followed, Team Leader Kim Hak-il’s mouth opened wide.

Shinwha Semiconductor’s attitude had changed 180 degrees, making him speechless.

The voice of Team Leader Kim Hak-il, who had been listening to the explanation, trembled faintly.

“So you can also support additional research and development?”

-Yes. Let’s talk about it once. Wouldn’t it be nice to cooperate with each other?

“Okay. I’ll contact you again.”

Click.

After the call was disconnected.

There was a strange tension in the conference room.

“...”

Team Leader Kim Hak-il, who had been looking at Yoo-hyun without a word, had a very complicated look in his eyes.

He hesitated for a moment and spat out a word.

“Yu, do you like octopus?”

“Yes. I can’t eat it because it’s not available.”

“Right. You must be hungry after coming a long way. Let’s have lunch together.”

Huh?

The eyes of the staff widened at Team Leader Kim Hak-il’s sudden words.

He had never had a meal with the staff of the parts company before.

Yoo-hyun added more.

“Good. Are you buying?”

“Of course I have to.”

Team Leader Kim Hak-il’s mouth showed a smile for the first time.

Vroom.

It was on the way back after the meal.

Kwon Se-jung, who was sitting in the back seat, touched his protruding belly.

“Wow, amazing. I’ve never eaten so much octopus in my life.”

“It was good, right? The soup was delicious too.”

Yoo-hyun asked, and Jang Jun-sik, who was holding the steering wheel, nodded vigorously.

“I feel energized because I ate it with abalone. Team Leader was very generous and bought us everything. What else was delicious...”

Jang Jun-sik poured out his words as if the meal was very impressive.

Yoo-hyun suddenly confessed to his excited junior.

“Jun-sik, I’m sorry. I only bought you tripe.”

“Ah, no.”

“We didn’t feed you enough.”

Kwon Se-jung also joined in, and Jang Jun-sik looked confused.

“Why, why are you saying that? It’s not like that.”

“Se-jung is right. It’s my fault for making you work hard and not feeding you enough.”

“Sir, really, it’s not.”

“Huh? Jun-sik can get angry too.”

“Uh, I’ll focus on driving.”

At Yoo-hyun’s words, Jang Jun-sik’s face turned red and he shut his mouth.

Kwon Se-jung shrugged his shoulders at the sight.

“Haha. Jun-sik really doesn’t break the seal when he’s with you, Yoo-hyun.”

“What do you mean?”

“If it was Section Chief Park Seung-woo, Jun-sik would...”

“Sir.”

As soon as Section Chief Park Seung-woo’s name came up, Jang Jun-sik turned his head sharply.

He frowned as if to tell him not to say it.

Seeing his junior’s reaction, Kwon Se-jung waved his hand in front of him.

“Okay. Okay, I get it. Just focus on driving.”

“What’s going on?”

Yoo-hyun was curious, but Kwon Se-jung quickly changed the topic.

“It’s nothing. Yoo-hyun, forget about that and let’s talk about something more amazing.”

“Something more amazing?”

“About the call you made in the conference room. I thought I was suffocating.”

“What’s suffocating about that?”

Kwon Se-jung spat out an excited voice at Yoo-hyun’s disbelief.

“No. It was really nerve-wracking. Right, Jun-sik?”

“Yes. I was so nervous. I thought my heart was going to explode.”

Jang Jun-sik added more.
