Chapter 629:

Time passed, and the team meeting began.

It had only been a week, but the atmosphere of the meeting was very different from the last time.

It was time to evaluate what each of them had prepared.

Everyone’s expression was tense.

Only Yoo-hyun was relaxed.

He entered the meeting room five minutes before the start and went around offering drinks and snacks to people.

“Here, have some of this.”

“Uh? Oh. Thanks.”

Hong Seung-jae, the deputy manager, blinked at Yoo-hyun’s unexpected gesture.

Nado-yeon, the team leader, looked puzzled.

Yoo-hyun explained his reason to her.

“I thought I should do something since everyone is busy.”

“Tell me if you’re bored. I’ll give you some work.”

“First, relax your throat. Honey tea is good. Have some.”

Yoo-hyun said with a good-natured tone and sat down.

Thanks to him, the mood became a bit more comfortable.

An Jae-kyung, the section chief, looked at Yoo-hyun with curiosity.

During the brief break, the order of the day appeared on the screen.

The order was ‘test’ and ‘competition’, with the test coming first.

-Internal problem identification, external trend analysis, competitor analysis

The presentation was divided into three parts, and they decided to verify them through questions and answers.

What if the response was insufficient?

Nado-yeon, the team leader, said that she would reconsider the qualifications of the team members.

She didn’t want to work with someone who was a burden.

Everyone agreed with this somewhat extreme statement.

Nado-yeon, the team leader, took a sip of honey tea and opened her mouth.

She focused on the work, as usual, and skipped the introduction and went straight to the point.

“Shall we check the problems we identified first?”

“Yes. I understand.”

Kwon Se-jung, the deputy manager, who was the first to open the door, nodded and stood next to the screen.

Jang Jun-sik, the deputy manager, held the laptop, and Jeong Hyun-woo, the deputy manager, sat next to him.

-Analysis of the problems and causes of Hansung Electronics’ smartphone

The title page turned and the presentation began.

“Starting from the flagship model of Hansung Electronics’ smartphone, Bumblebee, Bumblebee H, Bumblebee Qwerty, Bumblebee W, Bumblebee R, Bumblebee 2x, Bumblebee LTE, Bumblebee Big, they released seven derivative models in the last year. If you add other models, they released more than 10 varieties.”

“Why is that a problem?”

“As I mentioned, having so many product lines means that there is a lack of development manpower. The lack of development manpower leads to a decline in product quality, which resulted in a drop in brand image.”

Kwon Se-jung’s answer was not bad, but it was only a generalization.

It was something that an outsider who didn’t know the internal structure of Hansung could guess.

If they had done a proper investigation, they should have been able to go one step further.

Nado-yeon, the team leader, asked another question to confirm that.

“Then why did this happen?”

“First of all, it’s the problem of the product planning team, and the problem of the sales and marketing manager who allowed it.”

At Kwon Se-jung’s answer, Kim Sung-deuk, the deputy manager who belonged to the product planning team, squirmed.

Nado-yeon, the team leader, perked up her ears for a different reason.

“First of all?”

“Yes. If you go a little deeper, there is a problem of duplication of decision-making structure. There are three upper departments for the sales and marketing manager: the mobile phone business unit, the marketing headquarters, and the innovation strategy office.”

Was this possible in a week?

Team leader Nadoyeon knew better than anyone that it was absolutely impossible.

It meant that he had been researching this long before he moved to the Innovation Strategy Room.

‘No wonder he was confident.’

She smirked and looked at Yoo-hyun.

He smiled.

His face was smug, but she couldn’t argue with him.

He had brought the results he wanted, no matter how he prepared.

Team leader Nadoyeon looked around the three people who had presented and gave a brief comment.

“The summary is not bad. But remember that this is just scratching the surface.”

“Yes, we understand.”

“Good. You did well.”

She ended the situation with a blunt word.

It seemed indifferent, but it was a pretty generous compliment for team leader Nadoyeon.

It was a successful presentation, but the atmosphere was quiet.

Kwon Se-jung Daeri finished cleaning up quietly and sat next to Yoo-hyun.

He slumped.

“Good job.”

Yoo-hyun patted his shoulder and whispered, and he shrugged it off.

“What do you mean, good job? It’s just what I had to do.”

“Huh?”

“Huh, what? The next session is starting soon, so pay attention to that.”

Kwon Se-jung Daeri pretended to be nonchalant and nodded toward Kim Sung-deuk Chajang, who was standing on the podium.

Yoo-hyun looked at him incredulously and glanced at the other two Daeris.

They seemed to be very excited, but their eyes had quickly settled on the screen.

They were impressively scanning the next presentation content in advance.

‘These guys.’

They were not acting to impress the team leader right now.

Their desire to learn was stronger than that.

Especially, the external trend analysis that would be presented this time was the part that Kwon Se-jung Daeri had struggled to prepare before moving to the Innovation Strategy Room.

-What the hell is the reason for the problem in Hansung’s global distribution network? I can’t find the reason even if I investigate.

The answer to this part was held by Kim Sung-deuk Chajang, who was on the podium.

Snap.

His presentation started with switching the screen.

Kim Sung-deuk Chajang mentioned the global market share first.

“In the last quarter, Apple ranked first with 25 percent of the smartphone market share, and Ilsung ranked second with 22 percent. And Hansung, which ranked third, had 4.5 percent, and from the fourth place, there were Chinese companies...”

He recited the sales and operating profit in order, and then expanded the scope of the external trends.

The needs of the major sales outlets customers, the changes in the global market, the policies and regulations and limitations of each country, etc.

The content that could not come out without direct experience in the field came out one after another.

The problem of the global market distribution network was also such kind of content.

“There are a total of 500 carriers that can distribute in the global market, and in the case of Hansung, only 150 distribution networks are operating due to the reduction of smartphone presence, and the reason is...”

Swoosh. Swoosh.

Kwon Se-jung Daeri wrote down the core of the part he had missed in his notebook, and Jang Junsik Daeri was summarizing the presentation content without being asked.

It was the content prepared by the best expert with confidence.

For them, who had just started to walk, it was no different from a living textbook.
