Real Man

Chapter 546:

“Is there a problem?”

“Of course not. I’m doing what I always wanted and getting recognized for it.”

“But?”

When Yoo-hyun asked again, Kwon Se-jung, the assistant manager, looked troubled.

“Well, I’m just wondering if we can handle the new organization management as well.”

“Is it hard?”

“Don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying I can’t do it.”

Yoo-hyun chuckled as he saw Kwon Se-jung waving his hand.

‘He thinks a lot.’

But Kwon Se-jung was not carried away by his mood and looked ahead.

Yoo-hyun opened his mouth as usual to reassure his reliable colleague.

“You don’t have to worry about that part.”

“Why? Do you have a solution?”

“You don’t think we three will do all the work, do you?”

“Of course not. But who can take over that work right away? It will take at least a month or two to adapt.”

That was for a normal case.

In a case like this, where it was a completely new business, he had to double that time.

Yoo-hyun offered a solution to his worried colleague.

“There is an expert who is preparing behind the scenes.”

“Who? Who is it?”

“You’ll meet him soon.”

Yoo-hyun threw a meaningful remark to Kwon Se-jung, who was surprised.

Then he smiled and took a sip of his coffee.

The strong coffee taste was very pleasant.

At that moment, Jung Hyun-woo, the mobile development planner, was rubbing his ears.

“Is someone talking about me?”

Then a man came up behind him and pushed him without any context.

“Hyun-woo, did you set the schedule for the 4.5-inch panel? Did you check the production line?”

“Yes. I emailed you.”

Jung Hyun-woo got up from his seat and answered politely, but the team leader’s nagging did not stop.

“Did you write the workshop minutes for circuit team 1 and 2?”

“I uploaded them to the system and shared them.”

“Don’t you have to report to me if you did?”

“I reported to you this morning.”

The team leader was angry as he answered back and forth.

“What? Are you saying I missed something?”

“I never said that.”

“You have no engineering experience and you’re always meddling in everything… Huh! Group leader.”

The team leader was startled, and the development group leader who came up suddenly frowned.

“Kim team leader, what are you doing?”

“I was just training him a little.”

“That doesn’t sound like training. Hyun-woo is going to another organization, so stop bothering him.”

“What? That’s ridiculous. Then we won’t have anyone to replace him.”

The team leader who always defended his position was confronted by the development group leader.

“Why don’t you have anyone to replace him if he’s an inexperienced employee as you say?”

“That’s…”

“Just accept it as the president’s order!”

The decisive blow came from the development group leader’s mouth, and the team leader’s eyes widened.

“What? The president?”

“…”

Jung Hyun-woo blinked his eyes at the sudden situation.

That day, on his way home, Yoo-hyun heard Jung Hyun-woo’s story through his phone.

-The team leader was so surprised by the president’s order…

He summarized the excited words of his junior.

“So everything went well, right?”

-Yes. It was handled quickly. I also minimized the handover. It’s a miracle for our team leader’s personality.

“Finish it well anyway. He’s not someone you’ll never see again.”

Yoo-hyun advised him, and Jung Hyun-woo agreed with a refreshing answer.

-Yes. Of course. People are assets, right?

“That’s a good saying. Oh, do you have the corporate card?”

-Yes. Why?

“Charge it to me and buy something delicious for your team. You won’t see them again, right?”

At Yoo-hyun’s words, Jung Hyun-woo hesitated.

-Hey, how can I do that with the money from another organization?

“You got a lot of support, so you can use it as much as you want. You worked hard to reorganize the new organization, too.”

That was true.

Thanks to Jung Hyun-woo’s help, Hyun Kyungyoung, the senior executive, was able to organize the new organization smoothly.

Of course, he had only started digging, but without Jung Hyun-woo, he wouldn’t have been able to start at all.

This was also recognized by Hyun Kyungyoung.

But Jung Hyun-woo tried to stick to his principles.

Of course, he was much more flexible than Jang Junsik.

-I’ll do that with my own money. But I’ll take care of the engineers who will join the new organization with the corporate card.

“Don’t you have much face with them? Will the food go down well?”

-Of course. It’s free food. Why wouldn’t it? I’ll eat well.

“Kid. You have a good temper.”

-I learned it from you. See you soon.

Yoo-hyun smiled as he heard Jung Hyun-woo’s bright voice.

‘I see why Hyun Kyungyoung praised Hyun-woo.’

Jung Hyun-woo did not just help with the reorganization of the new organization.

He must have played the role of a lubricant in the middle.

A rough picture was drawn in Yoo-hyun’s head with a few words of conversation.

He looked at his phone and walked, and suddenly thought.

What if Jung Hyun-woo joined?

He really wanted to work with him once, and he was very excited.

‘It would be great synergy with Junsik, too.’

Yoo-hyun lifted the corners of his mouth as he imagined happily.

It was then.

Kim Hyun-min, the executive director who was walking next to him, tried to lock his head.

“What are you doing on the phone for so long when I’m here… Huh?”

Whew.

Yoo-hyun dodged lightly and answered.

“It was a very important call. And you were talking to someone else.”

“I was about to talk to you.”

“Oh? Are you talking about paying for this dinner?”

Kim Hyun-min, the executive director, was dumbfounded when Yoo-hyun suddenly barged in.

“What are you talking about, dude? You said you would pay for sure this time.”

“Well, that’s true, but the members who are attending are exactly the same as the old innovative product TF members, right?”

“So?”

“So, I thought you might have some pride and not want to freeload. In case it’s hard for you to say it, I can always give in…”

Kim Hyun-min cut off Yoo-hyun’s shameless words.

“Give in? What are you talking about? I won’t fall for it this time.”

“Fall for it? It sounds like you were tricked before.”

“I’m not falling for your wordplay anymore. I’ll get you to pay somehow.”

“Haha! Let’s go and talk there.”

Yoo-hyun, who shrugged his shoulders, pulled Kim Hyun-min’s arm, who was glaring at him.

The dinner to celebrate the successful launch of the Future Technology TF was held at a nearby rib restaurant.

There were many people who had a connection with Yoo-hyun.

Choi Min-hee, the team leader, Kim Young-gil, the section chief, Yu Hye-mi, the section chief, Lee Chanho, the assistant manager, Jo Mi-ran, the assistant manager, Yang Yoonsoo, Jung Saetbyeol, and so on.

Most of them were from the mobile strategy product planning team, including Kim Hyun-min.

They were very close, and the atmosphere was great with delicious food and drinks.

“Hahaha!”

As the empty bottles piled up, the laughter grew louder.

Among them, there was a table that suddenly became serious.

Thud.

Kim Hyun-min, who put down his glass, pushed Yoo-hyun with a loud voice.

“Today, Han Yoo-hyun, the director, will pay for everything, so eat as much as you want.”

“Wow!”

Yang Yoonsoo and Jung Saetbyeol, who were chatting at the next table, clapped their hands excitedly.

Yoo-hyun, who lifted the corners of his mouth, immediately responded to Kim Hyun-min’s provocation.

“Then, you’ll pay for the first round, right? Yoonsoo, order raw beef for each table.”

“Yes! I’ll order the ones that are dripping with juice!”

“Director, you’re the best!”

Yang Yoonsoo and Jung Saetbyeol were thrilled again.

Kim Hyun-min snorted as if he couldn’t believe it.

“Ha! This guy, does he think I’m a fool?”

Then, Choi Min-hee, the team leader who was next to him, waved his hand as if he was annoyed.

“Just pay, director. We also got a lot of bonus, right?”

“We did get a lot for helping out for a few days.”

Kim Young-gil, the section chief, also joined in, but Kim Hyun-min did not back down.

He pushed his chest out and went harder.

“No way. This is a matter of pride. I can’t keep losing.”

“Losing? If someone hears that, they’ll misunderstand.”

Yoo-hyun teased him with a playful expression, and Kim Hyun-min snapped back.

“Look at him? He’s trying to avoid paying with wordplay again.”

“Why would I care about money that’s not mine?”

“Really? Then you should pay.”

“Of course I want to, but I’m thinking about your position.”

Yoo-hyun and Kim Hyun-min, who had a glass between them, bickered.

Lee Chanho, the assistant manager who was watching them with disbelief, asked Kwon Se-jung, the assistant manager.

“I get the director, but why is Yoo-hyun like that?”

“He’s doing that because Kim director’s reaction is funny.”

“They both act childish whenever they meet.”

“That’s true.”

Kwon Se-jung made a pathetic expression, and so did the others.

They didn’t care much, as if they were used to it.

They grilled their own meat and drank their own drinks.

Regardless of the others’ eyes, Kim Hyun-min was very serious.

He stared at Yoo-hyun and his eyes sparkled.

“Fine. Let’s settle this like men. Let’s toss a coin.”

“That’s very manly of you. I’ll take it.”

Yoo-hyun also stood up to face him.

That’s when Park Seung-woo, the section chief, came in.

“Oh? Section chief, you came early.”

Yoo-hyun, who was standing and looking at the door, recognized him first, and Park Seung-woo laughed heartily.

“Hahaha! Of course, I had to run here when my mentee’s organization was created.”

At the same time, there were cheers from everywhere.

“Welcome, Park section chief.”

“Long time no see.”

“Haha! Hello.”

He greeted them with a smile, and Park Seung-woo was confused.

“Huh? But director, what are you doing?”

“Just wait a minute. We have to settle this.”

Kim Hyun-min, who was very serious, was fiddling with a coin, and Yoo-hyun briefly summarized the ridiculous situation.

“We’re tossing a coin to decide who pays for the dinner.”

“Betting?”

“Yes. The losing organization pays.”

“That’s childish. What’s the big deal about paying?”

“It’s a big deal. It’s a showdown between organizations with the bonus money at stake.”

Kim Hyun-min explained his reasons, but Park Seung-woo didn’t buy it.

Swoosh.

He took out a card from his chest pocket and handed it over with a smirk.

“This is our director’s unlimited card.”

“Wow! The crown prince card!”

The atmosphere heated up with one word.

Park Seung-woo didn’t stop there and said boldly.

“Our director told me to use it as much as I want, so I’ll take responsibility for everything until the end. Eat up!”

“Wow! That’s a different scale!”

Lee Chanho, the assistant manager, responded with a loud voice.

Kim Hyun-min looked embarrassed for a moment.

“Hey, assistant manager, what are you saying? What does that make me?”

“Ah… Hahaha.”

Lee Chanho, who rolled his eyes, laughed awkwardly.

Park Seung-woo ignored him and shouted to a passing employee.

“Please bring us the sirloin set for each table.”

“Yes. I got it.”

“Wow!”

In the hot atmosphere, Yoo-hyun pulled Kim Hyun-min’s arm.

“Sit down. I don’t think we need to toss a coin anymore.”

“Ha! I was going to win anyway.”

“Nobody cares about us now.”

Yoo-hyun was right.

The moment the crown prince card came out, the trend was Park Seung-woo.

Thump.

“Ah! Let’s just drink.”

“Yes. Let’s do that.”

Yoo-hyun smiled and sat down with Kim Hyun-min.
