“The reporter pushed hard. Haha! Oh, but oppa, do you have a business card?”
“A business card?”
“Yes. It’s my first ti exchanging business cards.”
She sounded excited, but Yoo-hyun didn’t have a business card.
“I left mine at ho.”
“That’s too bad. Does your boss have one?”
Jung Yesul turned her head and asked, and Vice President Shingyeongwook took out a business card from his wallet.
He seed to care about her being a first-tir.
Swish.
“Here you go.”
“Wow! So this is how you do it. Let see, your na is…”
Jung Yesul was about to examine the business card when the restaurant owner suddenly spoke.
“Yesul, what are you doing?”
“What do you an? I’m interviewing our custor.”
“Interview? Stop bothering him and co out.”
The restaurant owner grabbed her wrist and pulled her, and Jung Yesul shook the business card she had reflexively received.
Flap flap.
“It’s an interview, I’m telling you. Look, I even got a business card.”
“Why do you need a business card?”
“This is how business works. Mom, you don’t know anything.”
“What do you an I don’t know anything? I’ve been in this business for a long ti. Co out now.”
Jung Yesul tried to resist, but the restaurant owner was adamant.
She reluctantly got up from her seat, but her eyes widened when she saw the business card.
“Fine. I’ll go… Huh? Vice President…”
“Vice President?”
The restaurant owner was also surprised and blinked her eyes.
Vice President Shingyeongwook looked too young for his title.
That’s when Jung Yesul, who was reading the na, gasped and shouted.
“His na is… Gasp! Is he the Shingyeongwook?”
Her voice was so loud that it spread quickly between the tables.
There was no one here who didn’t know the na of the crown prince of Hansung Group.
Slosh slosh.
“Why did he co here?”
“Wow! Now that I look at him, he looks like the one I saw in the article.”
“What do we do? We were talking behind his back earlier!”
“I didn’t. You did.”
“Oh, really! Did I say anything wrong?”
There were murmurs everywhere.
The restaurant owner had the darkest expression among them.
“What do I do? I shouldn’t have taught her nonsense…”
She didn’t even blink an eye when a director or a vice president ca, but she couldn’t help it this ti.
She looked nervously at Vice President Shingyeongwook.
That showed how much his na was worth.
While the people who still hadn’t closed their mouths in surprise, Yoo-hyun quietly asked.
“Do you want to change seats?”
“No. We’re in the middle of eating deliciously.”
“What are you going to do? If you stay still, everyone will be bothered.”
He said it indirectly, but he ant that the other people would leave the restaurant first.
He thought Vice President Shingyeongwook would get up from his seat, but he smiled instead.
“Han, do you know what I felt when I saw the lives of my employees?”
“What is it?”
Instead of answering, Vice President Shingyeongwook raised his hand.
“Auntie.”
“Yes? Yes! Yes, Vice President.”
“Please put the whole bill on my table. And everything that cos after.”
Then he rang the golden bell with a cool gesture.
The people who were flustered let out an exclamation.
“Wow! Amazing!”
“I’ve never seen the crown prince ring the golden bell in my life.”
“Vice President, can we really eat more?”
Being in a crowd, the people started to speak up one by one.
They were all Hansung employees.
Vice President Shingyeongwook, who got up from his seat, spoke loudly.
“Don’t worry about and eat as much as you want. You can even badmouth .”
“No way!”
“Thank you!”
The atmosphere was cleared in an instant.
Now they wanted to stay longer rather than leave.
In the changed mood, Vice President Shingyeongwook nodded.
“How is it?”
“Not bad. No, it’s great.”
It was not bad at all that he decided to face his employees rather than avoid them.
Yoo-hyun gave him a thumbs up.
Swish.
Then, Jung Yesul, who had taken out a cara, suddenly asked.
“Excuse , Vice President, can I write this as an article?”
“What do you an?”
“The, the golden bell thing.”
At the absurd suggestion, Vice President Shingyeongwook looked at Yoo-hyun.
Yoo-hyun shrugged his shoulders, and Vice President Shingyeongwook chuckled.
Snap.
The cara captured the two n’s expressions.
Soon after, they also took a group photo with the employees gathered in the restaurant.
The employees in the background all had bright smiles on their faces.
A while later, Jung Yesul’s article was posted on the internet news section.
It was written by an intern, and it was not a very interesting news.
It was just a few lines of explanation attached to a picture.
Despite its triviality, this news caused quite a reaction on the internet.
-Is eating rice soup now a news?
-But he ate it all clean. He didn’t even leave any side dishes. He’s likable.
-It must be a really good place. He wouldn’t go there unless it was.
-Is that where the Hansung Tower is? I’m craving rice soup. I’m going there right now.
Vice President Shingyeongwook was so popular that anything he did was a hit.
It was thanks to his positive image that he had built up.
Yoo-hyun chuckled as he read the news on his phone.
“This is interesting.”
He felt that Vice President Shingyeongwook’s popularity among the public would be a great asset in the future.
He already had a plan in his mind.
The trivial news that could have ended as a happening, however, reached an unexpected place.
President Shinmyungho smiled as he received a report from Vice President Imhyuksu.
“So he went to a commoner’s restaurant after I told him he didn’t have any experience at the bottom.”
“He also ets with the employees one by one. He’s a bit excessive.”
“He said he would change the whole system of the group for the sake of the employees?”
“Yes. He said he would overhaul the internal system at this critical ti, and even asked for the staff from the group strategy office.”
President Shin Hyun-ho raised his eyebrows at the surprising remark.
“Ho ho, and then?”
“I refused. I thought it would be unfair for the competition with Kyungsu if I gave him the authority now.”
“Did he back off then?”
“No. He asked to at least give him the authority to change Hansung Display.”
“Ha ha! He really wants to make sothing happen, huh?”
Maybe it was because it was an unexpected outco?
President Shin Hyun-ho laughed heartily, and Vice President Imhyuksu asked with curiosity.
“Are you okay with that, sir? I told him to prepare a business direction, but he’s doing sothing irrelevant.”
“What’s not to be okay with? People are part of the business too.”
“Still, right now… Never mind. Then are you going to start the successor selection process as planned?”
“Yes. Seeing what Kyung-wook is doing, I think I can move up the timing a bit… Hmm.”
President Shin Hyun-ho, who was smiling, put his hand on his left chest.
For so reason, his face twisted for a mont.
anwhile, Shin Gyeong-su sneered as he learned of Shingyeongwook’s actions.
“What a generous brother.”
“I guess this kind of sentintal selling still works in Korea.”
Shin Gyeong-su shook his head at the man’s answer.
“They can’t get rid of their backward mindset. At this rate, it will end too easily.”
“Should we take action now?”
“No. Let him dig his own grave more. We’ll move then.”
“I understand. We’ll see so fun scenes soon.”
The man who answered smirked.
Behind his smile, the sunset was falling on the sky of Wall Street.
What kind of negotiation did Vice President Shingyeongwook have with the group operation director?
Yoo-hyun only heard from Park Doo-sik that there was so clash, but he didn’t know the result.
Zing.
The result was just delivered directly from Vice President Shingyeongwook.
-We decided to try changing Hansung Display for now. You must be disappointed, but let’s apply the internal plan you prepared first. I’ll talk to President Im myself. �
Yoo-hyun didn’t expect to change the whole group from the beginning.
But because he aid for that, he was able to get Hansung Display.
It was up to Yoo-hyun to lead a big change with this small change.
He sent a sincere reply.
-Disappointed? You did a great job. Thank you.
-I wish you had co to the innovation strategy office to change the group.
-Of course I should. I’ll be there as soon as I finish.
They had already talked about it, so there was nothing more to say.
They exchanged ssages quickly, and Kwon Se-jung asked Yoo-hyun.
“What are you so focused on? Any news?”
“Kid, you have a good nose.”
“Stop saying that. What is it? Work?”
“It’s not sothing to talk about at a year-end party. I’ll tell you next year.”
Yoo-hyun waved his hand, and Kwon Se-jung understood.
“It’s not urgent, right?”
“No. It’s not. But where’s Junsik?”
“He went to get more plates. He’s the happiest one since we ca to the buffet.”
“It’s delicious, isn’t it?”
Jeong Hyun-woo agreed with Yoo-hyun.
Yoo-hyun used his experience of conquering all the first-class hotel buffets to give an honest review.
“I agree. It looked small from the outside, but the food quality is amazing.”
“Yes. I’m glad we ca here last. It’s perfect for the finale.”
“Yeah. Hyun-woo, you did a lot of work for the gourt tour.”
“I’ll share the honor with everyone.”
Yoo-hyun smiled brightly, and Jeong Hyun-woo replied with a good humor.
It was then.
Jang Junsik appeared with plates in both hands.
Thud.
Yoo-hyun blinked his eyes at the plates.
There were piles of different kinds of kimbap.
“What’s this, why did you bring so much?”
“I thought you liked kimbap, sir.”
“Kimbap at a buffet…”
Yoo-hyun hesitated, and Jang Junsik asked anxiously.
“Gasp! Don’t you like kimbap?”
“No, no. I like it. But how did you know?”
“I heard that you stop by a kimbap place every ti you leave work and try different kinds of kimbap. I also saw you eating kimbap first earlier.”
“You’ve been observing a lot.”
He did try various kimbap, but it wasn’t just because he liked it.
It was more of an analysis of the competitors of ‘Nadokimbap’, which would soon be launched.
Kwon Se-jung, who knew a little bit of the background, chuckled.
“Hehe! Yoo-hyun, Junsik showed so sense for once, so eat so.”
“Sure. I should. Junsik, thank you very much.”
“Thank you. I’ll try harder.”
“No. You’re perfect without trying. In that sense, propose a toast.”
At Yoo-hyun’s suggestion, Jang Junsik, who had a proud expression, stood up.
He held a glass of champagne and seed to think of a toast.
He looked like he had morized sothing weird.
Sure enough, he uttered a phrase that could have co from an internet blog.
“I’ll propose a toast with azalea. Azalea ans deep, sweet, and…”
“Puhahaha!”
Suddenly, as if they had agreed, everyone burst into laughter.
Thanks to that, the last dinner of the Future Technology TF in 2011 was filled with laughter.
