Real Man

Chapter 481:

Click.

Every time Shin Nak-kyun pressed the mouse button, a new window popped up.

Yoo-hyun watched the changing screen quietly.

It was a system that had changed a long time ago and was forgotten by Yoo-hyun, but as he followed the path, he gradually remembered.

As expected, it was very complicated.

The data from the Group Strategy Office was mostly classified, and the storage system was twisted several times.

Without a manual, it would have taken a long time for Yoo-hyun to do it alone.

But Shin Nak-kyun was unknowingly helping him with that task.

Click.

It was when Shin Nak-kyun pressed the button once more.

Yoo-hyun asked, looking at the folder window that appeared on the screen. “There are folders for each person in charge. Explain their roles to me.”

“Why do you suddenly want to know that?”

“Don’t you know? If you don’t, look at this.”

Yoo-hyun handed him the organizational chart, poking at his pride. Shin Nak-kyun pushed it away and answered.

“I don’t need to look at this.”

“Then tell me. I’m not trying to spy on you, so don’t worry.”

“…”

Shin Nak-kyun flinched at Yoo-hyun’s pointed question.

Yoo-hyun chuckled and snapped his fingers.

“Just do it. I’ll let you go after this.”

“Fine.”

Shin Nak-kyun took a breath and recited the contents at a basic level.

“First of all, there are four divisions in our Group Strategy Office. They are Strategy, Management Support, Personnel Support, and Communication. And the departments under them are…”

The content was standard, but Yoo-hyun picked out the key points and compared them with the summary in his head.

Except for some minor changes in the teams within each division, the core was the same as his memory.

-Strategy: Establishing group-level business strategies and conducting audits of subsidiaries.

-Management Support: Monitoring the presidents of subsidiaries and acting as the chairman’s secretary.

-Personnel Support: Exercising personnel authority across the group and supporting the royal family.

-Communication: Managing the connections with the media, politicians, and key executives of major companies.

Yoo-hyun, who had been listening quietly, asked.

“That’s enough for the explanation. Now, let’s go into the Communication folder.”

“We can’t go in there.”

“Why not?”

“It’s top secret.”

“Don’t you know the password? They must have done something childish again.”

Yoo-hyun’s sarcasm did not change Shin Nak-kyun’s expression, which was stiff.

“It’s not that kind of password.”

“Then can’t we see our data in Communication?”

“That’s not the case.”

“So, in other words, they’re looking down on us?”

“…”

Shin Nak-kyun did not answer Yoo-hyun’s blunt remark.

This was also a matter of pride for the Strategy division.

“Then what do we have to do to see that data?”

“You have to achieve that level of performance. And you have to get recognition from the royal family.”

Shin Nak-kyun’s words gave Yoo-hyun a direction he wanted to go.

The secret data that could shake the Group Strategy Office and the royal family could only be accessed by entering other divisions.

To do that, he had to get recognition from the Strategy division.

It seemed like a roundabout way, but this was the most reliable method.

Of course, Yoo-hyun had no intention of suffering alone.

He nodded his head and set a clear goal for him.

“Okay. Then let’s do that, you and me.”

“What?”

“Kid. If you joined the Group Strategy Office, you should aim for the top. Do you want to whine and fail in a low-level organization?”

“What did you say?”

“It’s a compliment, a compliment. A compliment that will become your blood and flesh. Do you have a senior who talks to you like this?”

Yoo-hyun asked cheekily, and Shin Nak-kyun turned pale.

He couldn’t stand it anymore.

“Why are you my senior?”

“If you do well, you are a senior.”

“I can never accept that.”

He said he couldn’t accept it, but he still spoke politely.

In just a few hours, the relationship between the upper and lower ranks was established by Yoo-hyun.

“Don’t worry. You’ll soon accept it.”

Yoo-hyun smiled and answered lightly.

It was then.

Beep.

Shin Nak-kyun’s phone rang, and a message appeared on the screen.

Yoo-hyun leaned back in his chair and said without looking.

“Director Jang seems to be in a hurry. Check the data and upload it to the folder. You have to do this quickly.”

“…”

Shin Nak-kyun, who clenched his teeth, turned away without a word.

Yoo-hyun muttered, watching his back.

“He’s a fun guy to tease.”

Yoo-hyun’s lips curled up.

The next day, Shim Byeong-jik, the team leader, who received Shin Nak-kyun’s report, expressed his doubt.

“Why did he leave early yesterday when he’s so ambitious?”

“Maybe he’s trying to protest.”

“Protest for more work?”

“That’s what it seems like. He’s interfering with our work too.”

“Interfering?”

Shim Byeong-jik narrowed his eyes, and Shin Nak-kyun quickly picked up the words he had spilled.

“No, no. I’ll go back now.”

He tried to turn away to hide his embarrassment, but Shim Byeong-jik brought up a new issue.

“Oh, Shin, there was a comment from the director in the morning report.”

“Yes? What was it?”

“He said you did a good job finding the problem with the Chinese investment.”

“But we lost the investment opportunity anyway.”

Shin Nak-kyun, who should have been happy, made a complicated expression. Shim Byeong-jik tilted his head.

“What are you talking about? The possibility is higher since there’s an issue. We can charge more investment money. You should review it well.”

“Ah.”

Shin Nak-kyun blinked his eyes blankly at the unexpected result.

“Tsk, tsk. I thought you did well for once, but you got caught in the back foot by a cow.”

Team leader Shim Byeong-jik, who clicked his tongue inwardly, got up from his seat as soon as he sent Deputy Shin Nak-kyun away.

He wanted to see the face of the arrogant guy who was not helpful to the team.

At that moment, Yoo-hyun was leaning back on his soaked chair and reviewing what happened yesterday.

Yesterday afternoon, Yoo-hyun had a one-on-one meeting with Vice President Yoon Jutak in his office.

Maybe because Director Song Hyun-seung had reported to him, the brief meeting also mentioned Shin Kyung-soo.

-Shin Kyung-soo will move by the end of this year.

-By then, the foreign executives will be stabilized.

-You know a lot, don’t you?

-That’s all I know.

Yoo-hyun answered his probing questions appropriately, while figuring out the relationship between Yoon Jutak and Shin Kyung-soo.

From a few words, Yoo-hyun realized that Shin Kyung-soo was hiding a lot from Yoon Jutak.

As a result, Yoon Jutak made a foolish mistake.

He didn’t know that Shin Kyung-soo was not interested in the fish he caught, and he paid attention to Yoo-hyun.

It was a situation that was not bad at all for Yoo-hyun.

This subtle relationship would help Yoo-hyun’s underwater work in the future.

As he was organizing his thoughts, a man entered Yoo-hyun’s sight.

He had no clue why Yoon Jutak and Song Hyun-seung were interested in Yoo-hyun.

He didn’t know that Shin Kyung-soo was involved in the background, and he was unhappy with the situation.

He gave Yoo-hyun a bitter look.

“What are you looking at?”

Yoo-hyun, who chuckled, turned his chair and acted as if he was relaxed.

Swish.

The chair that rotated smoothly was definitely worth the price.

Team leader Shim Byeong-jik, who was watching Yoo-hyun from behind the partition, narrowed his eyes.

He looked like he was protesting with his eyes, wasting time without doing anything.

Even so, he had no intention of giving him work first.

He was a greedy guy who wanted results, so he must have been restless inside.

Team leader Shim Byeong-jik planned to use this to break his habit.

“Let’s see how long you can last.”

He turned around with a cold smile.

Yoo-hyun looked at Shim Byeong-jik, who was walking down the hallway, and recalled the old memories he had with him.

He had a stubborn elite mentality, and he never gave his heart to anyone he once ignored.

He was also very suspicious, so he didn’t want to associate with Yoo-hyun, who came from another business unit, and he didn’t even greet him.

He also had a strange stubbornness.

-Why don’t you know that once you give up the initiative, you will be dragged along? Well, you wouldn’t know the basics since you’re from LCD.

Team leader Shim Byeong-jik acted exactly as he said in the past.

He tried not to give the initiative to the other party even in trivial matters.

He was still the same even after Song Hyun-seung yelled at him yesterday.

He didn’t give a clear answer to Yoo-hyun about the work because of that.

Yoo-hyun knew this very well, but he had no reason to approach him first.

The result was already out.

How long could his strange stubbornness withstand the pressure from Song Hyun-seung?

Yoo-hyun thought of an interesting point to watch and looked at Deputy Shin Nak-kyun.

He had something to do before the result came out, so he shouted out loud.

“Deputy Shin. Come here.”

“Why again?”

Deputy Shin Nak-kyun, who was far away, got up from his seat with a displeased look, and Yoo-hyun told him about yesterday’s work.

“We have to do a work briefing from today.”

“Ha.”

Deputy Shin Nak-kyun’s sigh echoed.

Yoo-hyun was very quiet except when he received the briefing from Deputy Shin Nak-kyun.

He didn’t do anything to stand out, and he didn’t appeal to himself.

He just spent his days leisurely, like he did in the last days at the Ulsan factory or at Yeontae-ri.

The people who ignored Yoo-hyun were also wondering what he was doing.

A week passed like that.

Yoo-hyun, who was rolling around in his office seat, headed to the VIP lounge at a sunny time.

This lounge, which was exclusive for the group strategy room staff, was not used by anyone who was conscious of others.

Yoo-hyun entered the massage room in the lounge, relaxed his body on the massage chair, and poured coffee from the coffee machine.

Chew.

He could also use the high-quality biscuits on the Irish bar as much as he wanted.

Yoo-hyun, who brought a plate of biscuits, leaned back on the soft sofa.

The sunlight that came through the window felt very warm.

Yoo-hyun took a sip of coffee and bit into a thick biscuit.

Crunch.

It was especially chewy because it had a lot of almonds.

“This is really delicious.”

Yoo-hyun exclaimed at the rich taste in his mouth.

Deputy Shin Nak-kyun, who came next to him, frowned.

“Why did you call me here?”

“Let’s do the briefing. If you want to eat, you can eat too.”

Yoo-hyun held out a biscuit, but Deputy Shin Nak-kyun refused it right away.

“No, thanks. Let’s go back to our seats and listen to the briefing.”

“The view is nice here. Let’s do it here. The office is too stiff.”

“Ha. Then enjoy yourself. I’ll go back first.”

He turned around and Yoo-hyun threw a word at him.

“The battery factory investment project, the progress is not bad.”

Deputy Shin Nak-kyun, who stopped his steps, looked back with a cold expression.

“What do you mean?”

“I have to take charge of a project too.”

“I don’t know what you’re thinking, but that’s my project.”

“I can’t refuse the instructions from the person in charge.”

“…”

As Yoo-hyun acted cheeky, leaning back on the sofa, Deputy Shin Nak-kyun’s head became complicated.

Normally, he had to find the project himself.

But Song Hyun-seung wanted to give Yoo-hyun work right away.

Then, there was a high possibility that he would have to hand over the project that the existing members had.

Team leader Shim Byeong-jik would try not to give him work anyway, but he couldn’t ignore the possibility.

He quickly racked his brain and sat down.

“Don’t touch my project.”

“I have to listen to the other project briefings properly to decide what to choose. Don’t you think?”

“Let’s start right away. Today is Deputy Park Geun-deok’s Spain project.”

“You should have done that earlier.”

Yoo-hyun nodded his head, and Deputy Shin Nak-kyun, who opened his laptop, came closer.

He erased his contemptuous expression from before and explained earnestly.
