Real Man

Snap.

The screen went off and the lights in the conference room turned on brightly.

Thanks to the bright illumination, the expressions of the people sitting there were clearly revealed.

They all felt differently.

The Japanese research director, who had been sparing his words, looked relieved, while the production technology center director, who had been aggressive, had a stiff face.

Among them, CTO Park Bum-jin, who had lost the most, closed his eyes tightly with a sense of emptiness.

“Sigh.”

His sigh was impressive.

What if he had looked at the technology without prejudice?

He, who had touched the semiconductor display early, could have been the center of the new business that was about to happen.

‘He’ll do well on his own.’

Ignoring the useless worry, Yoo-hyun turned off the microphone and came down from the podium.

He saw the two colleagues who had been with him in the corner.

Yoo-hyun stretched out his fist, and Kwon Se-jung, the deputy, smiled and quietly bumped his fist.

Thud.

At this moment, there was no need for words.

Yoo-hyun then put his hand on the shoulder of Jang Jun-sik, who was standing next to him.

He whispered softly to his junior, who was shining his eyes with emotion.

“You did a great job.”

“You were amazing.”

Jang Jun-sik cautiously raised his thumb, and Yoo-hyun chuckled.

“Don’t overdo it.”

“It’s not overdoing it. You really did well… Huh.”

Jang Jun-sik covered his mouth with a loud voice, as if he was wronged.

It was because of the executives who were still in the conference room.

Then, a thick voice came from behind Yoo-hyun.

“He really did well.”

“President.”

Yoo-hyun turned his head and saw President Lim Jun-pyo smiling.

“I was wondering what you were going to do, but you had prepared this much.”

“Thanks to your support, I was able to organize it well.”

“What did I do for you? You worked hard.”

“No, these two people worked harder than me.”

Yoo-hyun pointed to his colleagues next to him, and President Lim Jun-pyo looked at them one by one.

“I know. Deputy Kwon Se-jung, Staff Jang Jun-sik.”

“Thank you for remembering us.”

Deputy Kwon Se-jung bowed his head with a touching heart, and President Lim Jun-pyo said a word to him.

“Didn’t I promise to remember you when I announced the Retina Premium? I was a bit disappointed when you said you were going to the Innovation Strategy Office.”

“That, that’s…”

Deputy Kwon Se-jung stuttered in confusion.

President Lim Jun-pyo seemed to have a funny idea and made a playful expression.

“Mr. Hong, I think it’s also a way to send him somewhere else for a while.”

“Why is that?”

Executive Hong Il-seop, who was standing next to him, asked in surprise, and President Lim Jun-pyo gave a simple answer.

“Look. All these guys are doing well after drinking different water. Of course, you too.”

“What did I do? It’s all thanks to them doing well at the bottom.”

“Haha! It’s a good house where everyone is humble.”

President Lim Jun-pyo laughed happily, and Executive Hong Il-seop, who was praised, looked at Yoo-hyun with a thrilled expression.

He even winked, which didn’t suit his strong impression.

It was very burdensome, but he pretended not to know.

This matter was also well resolved thanks to his network and experience, so Yoo-hyun responded with a smile.

President Lim Jun-pyo was in a good mood and stayed in the conference room to chat with Executive Hong Il-seop.

The topic was about the future of semiconductor displays.

“President, the organization I’m thinking of right now is…”

“If you need more…”

There was no place for the losers to join this conversation.

Everyone kept their mouths shut as if they were dead mice.

When everyone was staying in their seats because President Lim Jun-pyo didn’t get up, there was a man who looked at Yoo-hyun.

The man with neatly combed hair and frameless glasses was Executive Oh Ju-hwan, who was in charge of management innovation.

He met Yoo-hyun’s eyes and gestured slightly to the outside, then got up from his seat.

Yoo-hyun, who felt something, quietly followed him.

Yoo-hyun, who came out to the corridor outside the conference room, faced Executive Oh Ju-hwan.

He looked at Yoo-hyun and shrugged his shoulders.

“It doesn’t seem like it will end soon.”

“I had something I wanted to tell you separately.”

“What is it?”

“Thank you for helping me organize it. It was thanks to you.”

If it weren’t for Executive Oh Ju-hwan, he would have had a lot of trouble proving the numbers.

Yoo-hyun conveyed his sincerity, and Executive Oh Ju-hwan snickered.

“Isn’t that why you came to see me last night?”

“I wanted to report to you first. I had a lot of things on my mind.”

Yoo-hyun had attended the place where Executive Oh Ju-hwan called Executive Hong Il-seop last night.

He didn’t just attend, but reported in advance.

The content was much more detailed than today’s presentation, and it also included some flattering parts.

Executive Oh Ju-hwan nodded his head, recalling the memory of that time.

“You had a lot on your mind. There are still many things that are not organized.”

“Yes. I will take care of the remaining parts as you told me.”

“Do you know why I decided to step up?”

He asked Yoo-hyun, who bowed his head politely.

Yoo-hyun answered as plainly as possible.

“I don’t know.”

“It’s because you spoke honestly.”

-Google said they were confident in ten million units, but we have to see the contract. The panel cost can also go up depending on the yield. In the worst case…

Instead of talking about the rosy future, Yoo-hyun mentioned the realistic numbers.

He said exactly what Executive Oh Ju-hwan, who had to be conservative, wanted to hear.

‘I was just saying that because it might not go well.’

In fact, from Yoo-hyun’s perspective, it was also a risk diversification.

As soon as Google’s new project was announced, the world would be in an uproar.

But it wouldn’t be as successful as many people expected.

The problem was not the semiconductor display, but Google’s ability to make smart glasses a trend was not mature enough.

Yoo-hyun decided not to bring up any unnecessary talk at this point, and expressed his gratitude instead.

“Thank you for your favorable view.”

“Of course, the biggest reason is that it doesn’t cost much.”

“200 billion won is not a small amount of money, is it?”

“Well, even if we consider the worst case scenario, I think we can get it back in a few years. And didn’t you say you could do a lot with that money?”

-If we establish a production base with this factory investment, we can make many items that have only been researched so far. This will ultimately enable us to do micro LED and…

Yoo-hyun did not focus his investment only on the 0.9-inch semiconductor display.

He also included the base equipment for micro LED, which would be the future food source, in the investment.

He was able to introduce additional equipment within the existing budget plan with the support of the Future Product Research Institute.

He saved the additional investment cost and made it possible to diversify the business.

Naturally, from the perspective of Executive Director Oh Ju-hwan, who wanted to reduce the risk, it was a pleasing content.

Yoo-hyun confidently answered his question, which was thrown as a confirmation.

“Of course. You will see tangible results soon.”

“Showy results are something that people like you should think about. For someone like me, all you have to do is show me that it makes money.”

“Yes. I’ll keep that in mind. I look forward to working with you.”

“Okay. See you later.”

Executive Director Oh Ju-hwan smiled kindly and turned around.

Yoo-hyun recalled the last of Executive Director Oh Ju-hwan, who was in charge of management innovation, from his back.

-The decline of Hansung Display is all due to my poor judgment. I will take responsibility and step down.

When Hansung Display was caught up by China and recorded a huge deficit, Executive Director Oh Ju-hwan took responsibility for everything to quickly normalize the company.

Of course, it was not something that could be solved by him alone.

But unlike others, his attempt to take responsibility had a significant impact on Yoo-hyun, who went to audit as a group strategy room qualification.

Executive Director Oh Ju-hwan looked fine as he felt back then.

He was also someone who would help Yoo-hyun a lot in the future.

‘Let’s see each other often.’

Even after Executive Director Oh Ju-hwan disappeared, Yoo-hyun’s eyes stayed on the door for a long time.

The result of the Future Technology TF launch ceremony spread quickly.

He couldn’t hide it even if he wanted to, because the CEO’s instructions came down immediately.

Thanks to that, Yoo-hyun, who returned to the office, received a lot of phone calls.

Senior Researcher Hyun Geun-young, who belonged to the CTO, was one of them.

-Is it true that the person in charge is being created?

“Yes. I’m going to organize the personnel based on the information you sent me.”

“Hmm.”

“Executive Director Hong will coordinate with other department heads directly.”

When Yoo-hyun confirmed it, Senior Researcher Hyun Geun-young asked again, as if he couldn’t believe it.

His voice trembled as if it was unbelievable.

-Is there really a possibility that it will be done according to that organizational plan?

“The president said it himself, so it will.”

-This… I’ll get some bad words from the upper people, right?

“You’ll get some bad words for a while, but isn’t it a good deal if you make a good product?”

-Right. It’s better to get support and get scolded than to mess around here.

Senior Researcher Hyun Geun-young’s simple words revealed the problem of Hansung Display’s CTO.

Researches that were not the main technologies such as LCD, OLED, etc. were hard to get recognized for their performance.

And the data they made was only used as a comparison data to prove the excellence of LCD, OLED, etc.

But now the situation has changed.

Yoo-hyun made sure to point that out.

“Then it’s done. All you have to do is focus on the development without worrying about anything else.”

“Hmm.”

“I’ll support you with all the personnel and equipment you want.”

Senior Researcher Hyun Geun-young’s eyes sparkled at Yoo-hyun’s words.

-A lot depends on my hands.

“Yes. I look forward to working with you.”

-I should be the one to ask. I’ll do well. And thank you for everything.

Senior Researcher Hyun Geun-young made a strong voice and gathered his will.

‘I hope he’s okay. He’s got a lot of hard work ahead of him.’

Yoo-hyun hid his uneasy feeling and hung up the phone.

Thud.

As Yoo-hyun put down his phone on the window sill, Assistant Manager Kwon Se-jung handed him a coffee in good timing.

“I put two capsules in it as a special celebration for your hard work today.”

“Thank you. Are you telling me to stay up all night?”

“Of course. We got a lot of money to support us.”

“Are you not keeping the one-person household today?”

“Haha! It’s okay. I’m alone, so I can get back up quickly even if I collapse.”

Assistant Manager Kwon Se-jung shrugged his shoulders and sat down on the chair next to him.

Whoo.

The wind came in through the slightly opened window.

The short grass on the head of the grass doll shook slightly in the blowing wind.

Yoo-hyun looked at the doll of Assistant Manager Kwon Se-jung, which shook the most, and joked.

“Why is this guy’s hair growing so fast? What is his owner thinking about?”

“He’s the most worried of the three.”

“Why? Is your love life complicated?”

“No way. It’s not that.”

“Then what?”

Yoo-hyun asked, and Assistant Manager Kwon Se-jung made a serious expression.

“What will happen to our organization in the future?”

“What do you mean? Just control the new development well and make products.”

“Is that all?”

“Also, get other items quickly.”

“It’s still going to be dynamic…”

He was always positive, but why did he trail off?

Yoo-hyun asked him the reason with a curious mind.
