Real Man

Chapter 465:

On the other hand, there was someone who was eagerly waiting for the temporary shareholders’ meeting.

It was Vice President Shin Cheon-sik, who was expected to take over the president’s seat after that day.

“Finally, it’s tomorrow.”

As Vice President Shin Cheon-sik said in an excited voice while sitting on the sofa in his office, Executive Director Woo Chang-beom chimed in.

“It seems that the wrong thing is finally corrected. Director Shin Kyung-soo’s contribution was definitely huge.”

“Yes. He even moved Elliot. Well, it’s not a big deal to put a few of their members as executives.”

“That’s right. We have nothing to lose. Rather…”

As Executive Director Woo Chang-beom was speaking, Executive Director Yoon Ju-tak interrupted him and asked for permission.

“Vice President, I got a call from Elliot. Can I take it for a moment?”

“Hehe. Sure, sure. You have to take it, of course.”

Vice President Shin Cheon-sik agreed cheerfully, and it was when Executive Director Yoon Ju-tak picked up his cell phone.

He didn’t exchange a few words, but Executive Director Yoon Ju-tak’s face turned pale.

Executive Director Woo Chang-beom asked the stunned Executive Director Yoon Ju-tak.

“What? What’s wrong with you?”

“Eh, Elliot canceled the temporary shareholders’ meeting.”

“Haha. Yeah. Let’s talk to Elliot once… What did you say?”

Vice President Shin Cheon-sik, who was shrugging his shoulders, doubted his ears.

Seeing the stiff expression of Executive Director Yoon Ju-tak, he belatedly understood the situation and shouted.

“Cancel? What the hell does that mean?”

His flushed face was full of anger.

Yoo-hyun, who heard the same news, was also surprised.

“What did you say?”

Yoo-hyun asked urgently to Park Doo-sik, the manager who was on the phone.

“Elliot canceled the temporary shareholders’ meeting. What does that mean?”

-Well, how it happened is…

As Manager Park Doo-sik continued to explain, Yoo-hyun’s expression became serious, and Hyun Jin-geon, who was facing him, gestured with his eyes what was going on.

Yoo-hyun stretched out his palm to ask for understanding and got up from his seat and went out to the outdoor terrace outside the living room.

As he felt the cool night breeze, Manager Park Doo-sik’s words ended.

Yoo-hyun, who was chewing on his words, leaned his body on the terrace railing and asked.

“Is it confirmed?”

-Yes. I checked it several times.

“I see.”

As Yoo-hyun’s voice softened, Manager Park Doo-sik finally sighed.

-Ha. I don’t know if I should be glad about this.

“It’s a relief.”

-Right? I prepared hard, but honestly, I thought there was a high possibility of losing. The executive director said it was okay, but I was anxious.

As if he was spitting out his complaints now, Manager Park Doo-sik, who shared almost everything with Yoo-hyun, didn’t even know the details of the BCG case.

He thought Yoo-hyun went to the U.S. to find another way.

That’s how much Yoo-hyun managed the BCG report secretly.

He prepared for the possibility of leakage by not distributing the official data even at the BCG headquarters.

But even if the report was leaked, would Elliot, the party concerned, be able to withdraw at the cost of bleeding?

He thought there was no way that would happen.

Would he be able to make the same decision if he were in his shoes?

Even Yoo-hyun, who had 20 years of experience, couldn’t cut off such a complex issue of interest so boldly.

For the first time in a while, cold sweat ran down Yoo-hyun’s spine.

At the same time, he remembered the cold words that Shin Kyung-soo had uttered.

-Han Sang-moo, be bold when you throw it away. Don’t feel sorry. Just find the cause and step on it, and take it back.

He wouldn’t just back off once he got involved in this game.

He would definitely try to find the cause and retaliate, since he had been hit in the back of the head once.

“Hoo.”

Yoo-hyun’s breath mixed with the cold wind that blew.

Drrr.

Hyun Jin-geon, who opened the terrace door and approached, handed him a can of beer.

“Did I catch you at a bad time?”

“No. It’s a perfect timing. Thank you.”

As he received the can of beer, Hyun Jin-geon asked him.

“What’s the matter that makes you so serious? Is there anything I can help you with?”

“No. I just think there’s someone looking for me.”

“By the look on your face, it’s not a good opponent.”

“Why are you so good at reading the situation?”

Yoo-hyun asked jokingly, and Hyun Jin-geon answered seriously as always.

“I’m stimulated by seeing a capable friend. I’m thinking of learning how to deal with people this time.”

Another step forward for the genius, Yoo-hyun asked him playfully.

“That’s not something I can teach anyone, what should I do?”

“Then do it yourself, whatever.”

“Kuku. You know how to tease me, so you’re ready enough.”

“I really want to make your dream of opening a coffee shop on the first floor of Qualcomm building come true.”

Did he really take the words he said to Paul Graham seriously?

He thought it was like Hyun Jin-geon, and Yoo-hyun held out his can of beer.

Ting.

“You have to work hard.”

“Of course. That’s obvious.”

“It’s going to be hard.”

“What can’t I do?”

The question that Hyun Jin-geon spat out bluntly scratched Yoo-hyun’s frustration.

That’s right. He wasn’t alone anymore. He had such a reliable colleague, so why should he be afraid?

He shook off his worries and Yoo-hyun smiled brightly.

“That’s a very annoying but nice thing to say. Thank you.”

“Tell me anytime you need this kind of comment. I’m good at it.”

Huh?

The guy who was always serious even joked?

Yoo-hyun chuckled and drank his beer with a good mood.

The beer went down smoothly, thanks to the night breeze of California.

It was when Yoo-hyun was sharing his dreams with Hyun Jin-geon at his small house.

Shin Kyung-soo was sitting on the sofa in the living room of his mansion in New York.

His expression was very cold as he was on the phone.

“Emerson, we followed your advice and the Elliotts suffered a huge loss.”

“Robert, you have to be precise. I only conveyed McKenzie’s opinion, and this time, I only conveyed BCG’s opinion.”

“What do you mean? You were the one who orchestrated everything behind the scenes.”

“Don’t get excited. Be rational. The Elliotts didn’t lose anything, did they? If they get the promised compensation, they’ll actually gain something.”

Shin Kyung-soo’s words made the other person suppress his voice.

“Hmph. Fine. I’ll trust you, as you’re a long-time partner.”

“That’s a good decision.”

Shin Kyung-soo finished the call with a formal greeting and drank a glass of whiskey with ice.

He felt the bitterness of the whiskey strongly in his mouth for the first time in a while.

He had lost quite a lot in this decision, but he never regretted it.

He would have been completely screwed if he hadn’t let go.

It was obvious from the fact that the other party deliberately didn’t distribute BCG’s official data.

Who could it be?

He had never experienced such boldness and meticulousness in Wall Street.

There was a talented person who was manipulating the naive Shin Kyung-wook behind the scenes.

“I’ll find out soon.”

Shin Kyung-soo spat out a cold voice and smirked.

The next day, the temporary shareholders’ meeting was canceled.

It was clearly a strange event, but there was no media that covered it in depth.

This news that appeared on the Uri Daily also disappeared from the article list in an instant.

No one knew why, but there was no uproar among the major shareholders who had agreed to attend the temporary shareholders’ meeting.

With the situation turning out like this, the employees who were not interested in this matter suddenly didn’t care.

Yoo-hyun heard this news from Park Doo-sik, the deputy manager.

Then he told Park Seung-woo, the manager who had flown back to California, about this atmosphere.

Park Seung-woo, who was listening to Yoo-hyun’s words at the hotel bar, put down his drink and said.

“It’s like everything disappeared like a lie.”

“You worked hard for nothing.”

“If you share the burden, it’s better, right?”

“It’s a blank paper.”

“Anyway. It’s good that the mentor and the mentee worked together for a while.”

Park Seung-woo said shamelessly and held out his glass.

Clang.

Yoo-hyun smiled and clinked his glass.

Park Seung-woo was the senior who gave him a drink and a note of encouragement when he was not confident.

He was also the senior who bought him tteokbokki when he was worried about his junior working overtime.

He was the senior who was betrayed by his trusted junior but still hugged him until the end.

Yoo-hyun learned life from him.

And now he wanted to share more with his mentor in life.

“Manager, I’ll explain the part you were curious about.”

“No, you don’t have to if you’re burdened. I just came because I wanted to see you.”

“But I think it would be better for you to know. It’s a pretty complicated story.”

“Then I’m happy. I want to know more too.”

Yoo-hyun nodded and took a breath.

“First of all, I met Shin Kyung-wook, the executive director, for the first time…”

To mention the BCG case, he had to talk about his relationship with Shin Kyung-wook, the executive director.

The story that started with his meeting with Shin Kyung-wook, the executive director, continued to the content of why Yoo-hyun was helping Shin Kyung-wook, the executive director.

Of course, he left out the personal parts and cut out some unbelievable parts.

Park Seung-woo, who was listening quietly, agreed without any doubt.

“So you met the executive director at the San Francisco Design Expo. Kim, the manager, knew roughly.”

“Yes. That’s right.”

“I thought it happened when I was away, but it was before that.”

“Are you disappointed?”

Yoo-hyun’s question made him shake his head after drinking.

“No way. I’m just envious that the executive director went to Yeontae-ri. I wanted to go too.”

“Let’s go together next time. I have my own house there.”

“I know. Haha. I even looked up your blog myself.”

“It’s cool, right? I’ll let you sleep on a mat there if you come, manager.”

“I don’t want to be bitten by mosquitoes. If I lose more weight here, my charm will drop.”

Yoo-hyun chuckled at his serious expression.

“What did you learn in MBA that made you come up with such logic?”

“Tell me again? Your splendid school life, mentor?”

“Oh, the campus life that only men drool over?”

“What? Hahaha.”

Park Seung-woo laughed and drank his glass.

They talked about this and that, and the bottle of liquor was emptied.

How many more drinks did they have?

When his face turned red, Park Seung-woo revealed his true feelings.

“Actually, I got an offer from the executive director through the professor.”

“What kind of offer?”

“He said he wanted me to join the Innovation Strategy Office after finishing MBA.”

“I see.”

Yoo-hyun nodded, as he already knew this story.

Then, a surprising word came out of Park Seung-woo’s mouth.

“But I said I’d think about it later.”

“Why? The Innovation Strategy Office is good.”

“I just wanted to work with you then.”

“That’s a very plausible reason.”

Yoo-hyun nodded at him and he drank his liquor and said.

“Right. But now that I hear it, you’ll end up going to the Innovation Strategy Office too. Right?”

“That’s possible.”

“Probably. You’re not fit for LCD. That’s why I’m worried.”

“Wouldn’t it be better if we worked together there?”

“Right. Right, but, I feel good but also a bit nervous.”

He looked weak, unlike himself, and Yoo-hyun felt like he knew the reason without hearing it.
