Chapter 129
Stagnant for nearly eight years.
The Assistant Manager was a ruthless person.
“Hey, make sure you share the subsidy money fairly. Or else I’ll tell the manager. Assistant Manager Byun is so stingy, stealing money from his juniors.”
“Assistant Manager, that’s not true.”
“Yoo-hyun, let’s go.”
Yoo-hyun nodded and followed Kim Hyun Min, the Manager.
The atmosphere in the conference room was completely ruined.
Kim Hyun Min smirked as he walked down the hallway.
“Kids. They won’t ss with Chan Ho anymore.”
You an they’ll hold a grudge against him?
Yoo-hyun didn’t dare to say it out loud.
“Yes. You did a good job.”
“Right. You learned sothing from this eting, didn’t you?”
“Don’t let the nasty bastard get away with it, right?”
“Wow, you’re right.”
Kim Hyun Min liked Yoo-hyun’s joke.
Yoo-hyun chuckled and gave him a thumbs up.
He stood up for his colleagues after all.
It was worth praising.
Being a shield for his team mbers and eliminating external unreasonable factors, making them focus on their work, was an important virtue of a leader.
He was a bit rough and crude, but he was showing more of a leader’s qualities.
Of course, he sotis crossed the line, but today was fine.
Assistant Manager Byun Jin Woo, who was at fault, couldn’t make things worse anyway.
More importantly, his actions had a great effect on bringing the third team mbers closer together.
This was what the third team needed most, when they were scattered like grains of sand.
It was all because he stepped forward and made things happen.
At first, he seed awkward with the change, but now he looked confident.
He didn’t show it, but he had a strong sense of responsibility.
He protected the third team mbers from the manager’s scolding, the other team mbers’ questions, and the other teams’ tackles.
As long as he was in charge, the third team would stick together more firmly.
Yoo-hyun smiled brightly as he followed Kim Hyun Min’s back.
At that mont, Kim Hyun Min turned his head sharply.
“What are you doing? Hurry up.”
“I’m coming.”
Yoo-hyun answered quickly.
The eting that Yoo-hyun attended with Kim Hyun Min lasted about 30 minutes.
But even after they ca back from the eting, there was no change in Park Seung Woo’s attitude.
He still had a blank expression on his face and stuck his nose to the monitor as before the eting.
Kim Hyun Min, who had acted like a leader for a mont, looked at Park Seung Woo with contempt.
“Park, are you still doing that?”
“I think the announcent will be soon.”
“Do you think clicking on the email will make it co? You might fail even if you pass. Co on. Let’s go smoke.”
“No. I’ll take a break today.”
How desperate was he to refuse Kim Hyun Min’s offer?
Co to think of it, he skipped his usual cigarette ti after lunch.
“Deputy Park, do you want so coffee?”
“No. I’m fine.”
He shook his head at Yoo-hyun’s offer of coffee.
This was the first ti this happened.
Tap tap tap.
Park Seung Woo brought his laptop to the weekly team report and kept checking his email.
He looked very nervous with dark circles under his eyes and shaking legs.
He even repeated the sa thing while Team Leader Oh Jae Hwan was talking.
Kim Hyun Min muttered in a low voice as he watched him from the side.
“That crazy bastard.”
He would have taken it as a joke normally, but this ti he agreed with him.
He definitely went too far.
“Jo, prepare your TRM (Technical Roadmap) report for your manager and update the Nokia volu agreed with the sales team. And…”
Team Leader Oh Jae Hwan was talking in the middle of it.
“Pfft.”
Kim Young Gil, who was usually calm, reacted to Kim Hyun Min’s words three beats late.
It was a funny situation.
But it wasn’t a good timing.
Sure enough, Team Leader Oh Jae Hwan’s eyes sharpened at once.
“Third team, what are you doing? If you want to have a party, go outside!”
“I’m s-sorry.”
Kim Young Gil quickly bowed his head, but the frozen atmosphere didn’t lt easily.
From Team Leader Oh Jae Hwan’s perspective, the third team was nothing but an eyesore.
They were busy preparing for so contest or sothing.
He wanted to say sothing, but he couldn’t because they had finished the Hyundai Motors and Apple projects well.
And Kim Hyun Min annoyed him more than anything else.
He could only vent his frustration inwardly.
“Geez, what a bunch of losers…”
Team Leader Oh Jae Hwan muttered disdainfully, and so nodded in agreent.
The third team had a free-spirited atmosphere and they were sticking together lately, which made them envious.
Of course, they also made a lot of enemies.
Especially the other team leaders or Assistant managers and above tried to please the team leader by antagonizing the third team.
Either way, Kim Hyun Min kicked Park Seung Woo’s calf and told him to stop looking.
Park Seung Woo stared at the monitor regardless of whether he agreed or not.
Team Leader Oh Jae Hwan glared at him.
“Park, what’s so funny? Let know.”
“…”
“Today’s the contest result day, right? Park is so distracted waiting for that.”
“Kim, did I ask you?”
Team Leader Oh Jae Hwan went that far, but Park Seung Woo didn’t answer.
The atmosphere cooled rapidly.
“The contest can go to hell. I didn’t like it from the start when you did sothing that wouldn’t work. How can we do a contest from the mobile phone division?”
Team Leader Oh Jae Hwan belittled them blatantly.
“Where did you get that nonsense backup plan? Tsk tsk tsk.”
“…”
Then there was a snicker from here and there.
Even so, Assistant Manager Park Seung-woo had no answer.
He just moved his mouse.
Why is he like that?
I decided to put my thoughts aside for now. I had to avoid this situation first and see what happens later.
It was when Yoo-hyun stepped up to change the mood.
“Uh, uh.”
Assistant Manager Park Seung-woo’s mouth twitched.
His eyes widened, his mouth slowly opened, and his head tilted back.
Bang.
“Ouch!”
Then his chair fell backwards.
If Yoo-hyun hadn’t caught him quickly, Assistant Manager Park Seung-woo’s head might have hit the floor.
“Hey, are you crazy?”
Kim Hyun-min, the Manager, looked incredulous as he snapped at him.
Grunt.
Assistant Manager Park Seung-woo got up from his seat and said.
“To, passed. I passed the contest.”
“What?”
“I passed the first round!”
At the place where everyone gathered.
Assistant Manager Park Seung-woo raised his hands awkwardly and shouted.
Out of hundreds of ideas, only 20 were selected for the first round of the contest.
If you pass the first round, you can get support from the mobile phone business unit to make a product.
Through this, a decent initial product was made.
What if you pass the second round presentation?
Not only will the product be launched imdiately, but the proposer’s na will be on it.
The huge prize money was a bonus.
Was it because of that?
Assistant Manager Park Seung-woo’s embarrassnt was brief.
That day, Assistant Manager Park Seung-woo received a lot of congratulations.
The rumor spread to other teams.
Even Jo Chan-young, the senior manager, gave him a warm smile that he had never seen before.
“Well done. I knew you could do it. Hehehe.”
“Thank you, sir.”
Even Oh Jae-hwan, the team leader who didn’t like this situation, hid his dislike and approached him.
And he subtly emphasized his own rit.
“See? It worked because you did what I prepared.”
“Yes, team leader. I won’t forget it.”
Anyway, Assistant Manager Park Seung-woo was very happy.
His mood exploded when he saw his lovely ntee.
“Yoo-hyun! It’s thanks to you.”
“Co on, it’s all thanks to you, deputy. I just helped a little bit.”
“You lucky kid.”
Yoo-hyun stepped back, but Assistant Manager Park Seung-woo insisted on hugging him.
A man and a tight hug were not welco.
Yoo-hyun dodged his body sensibly, and Assistant Manager Park Seung-woo hugged Kim Hyun-min, the Assistant Manager who was behind him.
Wham.
“Thank you, Assistant Manager.”
“Why are you so gross?”
“Because I’m happy.”
“Just get away from .”
Assistant Manager Park Seung-woo rubbed his head against his chest, and Kim Hyun-min looked disgusted.
Was he that happy?
Yoo-hyun still smiled as he watched Assistant Manager Park Seung-woo shake his head.
It was only the first round pass, but it was his first achievent that he started with his own will and made it happen.
He expressed his joy with a very bright smile.
But he couldn’t be happy all the ti.
There would be more difficulties waiting for him in the second round presentation.
It wouldn’t be a problem if he was evaluated by his skills.
His efforts so far were not enough to fall behind any competitors.
The problem was Director Lee Kyung-hoon.
He wouldn’t stay still like this.
He had to move sohow.
The point was to catch him and prepare in advance.
To make a card to pull out at the decisive mont.
And to make him self-destruct in the end.
That was what Yoo-hyun had to focus on from now on.
It was when Yoo-hyun sat down and thought about it.
Team leader Oh Jae-hwan passed by behind him.
He walked away with a troubled expression on his face.
There was only one person who could make him panic at this point.
Yoo-hyun followed him at a distance.
His body disappeared into the partition of the sales team leader seat.
Fortunately, there was no one in the sales team.
If there were, they would have received an unpleasant look from him.
More than that, because there was no one in the team, Director Lee Kyung-hoon in the team leader seat could talk as much as he wanted.
Yoo-hyun pretended to touch the printer in the hallway and listened to his voice.
“Oh team leader! You’ll be pushed by Deputy Kim if you stay still like this. Do you an to do that?”
“I’m sorry.”
“Move now. You’re done if you pass the contest. Why don’t you know that?”
“…”
“You have to pull it out sohow. How do you do that…”
As expected, Director Lee Kyung-hoon was moving Team leader Oh Jae-hwan from behind.
The funny thing was that he was a talker.
He was the most impatient one, but he blad Team leader Oh Jae-hwan.
Team leader Oh Jae-hwan, who couldn’t say anything in front of him, was also a problem.
In the end, whoever ca up, he would be dragged around.
‘Is this all he can do?’
Yoo-hyun smirked at that mont.
“Yeah. Make a scene. Use that as an excuse to screw him over. Can’t you? Do you want to help you?”
“…”
“Just get so evidence. I’ll finish it with the route I know.”
“Thank you for your words, but I’ll take care of this part myself.”
Team leader Oh Jae-hwan’s mood changed subtly.
They couldn’t see their faces, but it looked like he was waving a flag at Director Lee Kyung-hoon.
There was sothing that triggered him for sure.
“Oh team leader! This is all for you.”
“I’m a bad guy, but I can’t do anything cowardly.”
“Are you kidding? You’ll have to fall to the ground and lose everything before you co to your senses.”
“I’m sorry.”
Team leader Oh Jae-hwan bowed his waist and walked out.
“Hey! Oh Jae-hwan!”
Soon after, Director Lee Kyung-hoon’s shout burst out.
Team leader Oh Jae-hwan paused, but didn’t look back.
His face was so pale that he looked scared, but he moved his feet.
Did he have such a backbone?
It was fortunate.
He was just a timid opportunist, not a trash.
He had enough pride not to do anything cowardly.
That’s why it was fortunate.
“Damn!”
Director Lee Kyung-hoon’s annoyed voice rang out from behind the partition.
Yoo-hyun ignored his voice lightly and looked at Team leader Oh Jae-hwan’s back.
At least today, his back looked big.
