Real Man

Chapter 436:

There was someone who was watching that scene with his arms crossed.

Director Jung Woo-hyuk asked with a stern expression.

“Did Hansung really say they can support the exhibition within the schedule?”

“Yes. As I told you, they even reported it to Vice President Shin Myung-ho.”

Section Chief Shin Kwang-se’s answer made Director Jung Woo-hyuk shake his head.

“No. That’s not true.”

“What? But I clearly heard it.”

“That’s what I checked directly with Hansung Group’s Strategy Office. There was no such report to the president’s office.”

“Wow. Isn’t that a problem?”

Director Jung Woo-hyuk narrowed his eyes and recalled what happened yesterday.

Section Chief Shin Kwang-se, who was listening, touched his forehead with a troubled look.

“Damn. If this exhibition goes wrong, the director won’t let it go.”

“It’s not your fault, is it? It’s the consulting company’s fault.”

“That’s why we shouldn’t have hired a rookie with no experience. Damn it.”

Section Chief Shin Kwang-se expressed his annoyance and Director Jung Woo-hyuk said.

“Let’s just wait and see. I have Ilsung on standby in case the exhibition fails.”

“Wow. As expected. Thank you.”

“But you have to take care of something for me. I had a hard time soothing the people who were upset by the kid’s bluff.”

“Of course. If you help me, I will never forget this favor.”

Section Chief Shin Kwang-se bowed deeply.

Meanwhile, Yoo-hyun was having a leisurely morning.

The Italian barista certificate on the wall of the coffee shop was not a lie, as the flavor of the beans was definitely better than other places.

Yoo-hyun took a sip of coffee while looking at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs building outside the window.

The rich coffee taste came as a pleasant stimulus.

“This is good.”

He smiled with satisfaction and saw a familiar face in his eyes.

Director Jung Woo-hyuk and Section Chief Shin Kwang-se were walking on the road side.

Yoo-hyun checked the message from Deputy Director Park Doo-sik on his phone screen again.

-As you said, I checked if the exhibition report went to the president from the Group Strategy Office. We’ll move as planned.

As expected, Section Chief Shin Kwang-se reported everything Yoo-hyun said to Director Jung Woo-hyuk, who was not part of the G20 Preparation Committee.

Director Jung Woo-hyuk took the time to check the background and visited the Ministry of Foreign Affairs building instead of the Government Complex in the early morning.

Why did he do that?

Yoo-hyun easily predicted the backdoor deal between Director Jung Woo-hyuk and Ilsung.

From Director Jung Woo-hyuk’s perspective, he didn’t want Hansung to take the lead in the exhibition.

It was obvious that he would try to find fault and crush them somehow.

Just like he did when he trampled on Hansung in the past.

Beep.

As Yoo-hyun was recalling how great Director Jung Woo-hyuk seemed in the past, he got a message from Jang Joon-sik.

-Director, I think I’ll arrive at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 20 minutes. I also coordinated with Gimpo to match the time.

Yoo-hyun finished his coffee and got up from his seat.

“Shall we start now?”

There was a bright smile on Yoo-hyun’s lips.

A moment later.

A truck from Ulsan parked in front of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs building.

Clank.

Jang Joon-sik got out of the car and followed by a familiar face.

“Oh my. Han Deputy, how long has it been?”

“Long time no see, Supervisor.”

Supervisor Lee Jin-mok grabbed Yoo-hyun’s hand and hugged his shoulder with his other hand.

His face was full of joy.

“Why don’t you come down once?”

“You’re doing well, why should I go down?”

“What? Are you some kind of audit team? If you can’t do your job, come down.”

“Didn’t you do that before?”

“What? Hahaha. You were awesome back then.”

Supervisor Lee Jin-mok laughed happily when Park Jin-hoon came over and bowed politely.

“Deputy, how have you been?”

“Jin-hoon, long time no see. Joon-sik, you worked hard coming from far away. Take a break.”

Yoo-hyun greeted him and gestured to Jang Joon-sik who followed him.

But Jang Joon-sik was always diligent.

“No, sir. We don’t have much time, so let’s start right away. Jin-hoon, let’s go.”

“Yes? Oh, yes.”

Jang Joon-sik moved right away and Park Jin-hoon followed him with confusion.

It was a sight of an engineer from the Ulsan factory being dragged by a staff from the planning team.

Supervisor Lee Jin-mok clicked his tongue as if he was used to it.

“You have a lot of interesting people in your organization.”

“I guess we get along well. But why did you come, Supervisor?”

“Why? I came to tease you for your hard work.”

“Why would I work hard?”

“Didn’t the Gimpo guys freak out when they got the exhibition list? Especially the TV side, which is hard to exhibit, they must be grinding their teeth at you.”

As Supervisor Lee Jin-mok said, the TV side, which had a lot of major exhibits, was completely flipped.

They couldn’t vent their anger at the innocent Jung Saet-byul, so it was obvious where their anger would go.

Maybe Supervisor Lee Jin-mok was right and they would make a scene here.

Yoo-hyun asked with a playful expression.

“Aha, so you came to get scolded with me?”

“I’m going to watch you work hard and carry the load. You have to work hard here too, since you didn’t do it in Ulsan.”

“I don’t want to do that.”

Yoo-hyun shook his head and walked, and Supervisor Lee Jin-mok followed him.

“Why? Did you make some kind of deal like when you worked on the module?”

“It’s not a deal, but I prepared something else.”

Yoo-hyun smiled meaningfully and Supervisor Lee Jin-mok blinked his eyes.

“Something tells me there’s going to be something fun to watch.”

Then he smiled with anticipation.

As the report from the Innovation Strategy Office said, they planned to decorate the entire first floor of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs building as an exhibition hall.

For this, three more trucks from Gimpo factory came with vibration-free transport.

A 100-inch ultra-large panel, a 10-millimeter thin panel, an 80-inch transparent panel, dozens of 40-inch panels for video walls, and more.

All of this couldn’t have fallen from the sky overnight.

Even though Yoo-hyun had prepared in advance with Jung Saet-byul and Yang Yoon-soo, the engineers had to work all night.

And this wasn’t the end. They had to move, set up, and verify as much as this tomorrow.

It was a tough task to meet the tight schedule.

As soon as Senior Engineer Ahn Hyung-yoon from TV Circuit 4 Team got off the truck, he glared at Yoo-hyun.

He already had a bad impression of him from the video conference a while ago, and he had no reason to like Yoo-hyun.

“Is it your hobby to mess things up, Deputy Han?”

“I had no choice. The business director ordered me to do it.”

“No choice? You were the one who decided to support them. You should have told us from the beginning if you were going to do this.”

Ahn Hyung-yoon raised his voice and the engineers who were carrying the luggage looked at him.

They all had dissatisfied expressions on their faces, as they felt the same way as him.

Yoo-hyun was polite, as it was understandable from their perspective.

“I’m sorry. I’ll reflect your feedback as soon as possible.”

“Let’s talk after you sort things out.”

Ahn Hyung-yoon passed by him angrily.

Supervisor Lee Jin-mok, who was standing a step behind, sneaked up and asked.

“What’s going on? Why did you let him go so easily?”

“They’re here to help us.”

Yoo-hyun shrugged his shoulders.

The preparation for the exhibition was more challenging than expected.

The engineers who saw the state of the exhibition hall complained here and there.

“Come on, there’s no place to put the stuff down, how do you expect us to bring all this?”

“There’s no mounting treatment on the wall either.”

“They said it was all done, I thought we just had to hand it over, but we have to do everything.”

Jeong Da-hye, who was in charge of the overall direction, struggled to calm them down.

She had some unfair parts in her position, but she did her best to appease the engineers.

“I’m sorry. Please tell me what you need and I’ll do my best to accommodate.”

Yoo-hyun silently helped them from behind, without saying much.

The civil servants’ interference was also a problem.

Section Chief Shin Kwang-se, who had scolded the engineers for blocking the entrance, came down again.

This time, he brought Director Jung Woo-hyuk with him.

“Team Leader Jeong, report the progress.”

“Section Chief, can’t you wait a little bit? As you can see, everyone is busy.”

“Oh. Team Leader Jeong, I need to know the progress so we can prepare too. If you don’t do it properly, you’ll be responsible for it.”

He was more arrogant because Director Jung Woo-hyuk was behind him.

His scolding made the engineers who were working turn their heads.

Jeong Da-hye, who was deciding where to attach the large panel on a ladder, came down to smooth things over.

She maintained her expression even in this annoying situation.

“Out of 128 panels that are connected in total, we have secured 12 locations and turned on 2 screens.”

“What? There’s not much time left and that’s all you’ve done?”

“Everyone is doing their best. We’re setting up the large panels first, and then we plan to…”

Yoo-hyun looked at Jeong Da-hye who continued to explain persistently with a pleased expression.

Supervisor Lee Jin-mok whispered to him with a dumbfounded look.

“Deputy Han, why are you smiling when the civil servants are frowning? You’ll get burned by their sparks.”

“What can I do? Just deal with them properly.”

“Why are you fiddling with your phone? Are you recording evidence of their abuse?”

Supervisor Lee Jin-mok looked at him with anticipation.

Yoo-hyun chuckled and answered.

“I’m just sending a message. It’s a perfect timing.”

“Oh, I see. I thought…”

Supervisor Lee Jin-mok was disappointed by Yoo-hyun’s words.

Meanwhile, Section Chief Shin Kwang-se’s scolding continued.

He grabbed both shoulders of Jeong Da-hye and pressed harder.

“Oh. Team Leader Jeong. If you had worked with Ilsung from the beginning, it wouldn’t have taken so long.”

“Section Chief, that’s too much. Everyone is working hard.”

“Working hard? What’s important is that. Do you know what will happen if we fail to host G20?”

Section Chief Shin Kwang-se’s absurd abuse made Senior Engineer Ahn Hyung-yoon angry.

He was a hot-tempered person himself.

“What do you mean? You shouldn’t have asked us in the first place?”

“Didn’t you guys insist on doing it?”

Section Chief Shin Kwang-se confronted him with a tit-for-tat attitude and Ahn Hyung-yoon called Yoo-hyun.

“Deputy Han, what’s going on here?”

“I don’t know. Why is Section Chief Shin saying that?”

“What? Did you report to the president? How can you make such a mess with your bluff?”

At Yoo-hyun’s words, Director Jung Woo-hyuk spat out a harsh voice from behind.

“I’m telling you after checking everything.”

“I don’t know what you mean.”

“Are you going to deny it until the end? I don’t know who’s behind this, but this is a national matter. You can’t afford to make any mistakes.”

He then invoked the nation to intimidate him.

-This leak of Hansung Electronics LCD technology to China is a serious blow to the national economy. We intend to conduct an internal audit of Hansung Electronics at the national level to fundamentally improve this issue.

Yoo-hyun recalled what Director Jung Woo-hyuk said at the press conference in the past.

He acted like a crusader of justice and wielded his sword at Hansung Electronics, but it turned out that Ilsung Electronics was behind him.

Of course, that was Hansung’s business.

Yoo-hyun, who was just an employee, had no reason to hold such a grudge against him.

He didn’t do anything illegal or frame them for a crime they didn’t commit.

But he didn’t want to listen to his hypocritical words as if they were friends.

“Are you insulting our company? What do you mean by that?”

Yoo-hyun stood up to him and the engineers who were cheering for him were startled.

Supervisor Lee Jin-mok was so surprised that he blinked his eyes and Jeong Da-hye closed her eyes tightly.

That’s how big Director Jung Woo-hyuk’s presence was.
