The answer came from behind him, not from Yoo-hyun.
“I called you.”
The people who saw the owner of the heavy voice were startled.
“Huh. Mr. President.”
“Mr. President, hello.”
Kim Hyun-min, the executive director, greeted him, hiding his surprise.
President Lim Jun-pyo, who knew Kim Hyun-min’s personality, asked sarcastically.
“Kim, did I do something wrong by calling Han, the section chief?”
“No. How could that be?”
“Even if you have some resentment, we worked together, so I wish you would welcome him a little.”“Of course not. If it’s about being happy, I’m the happiest. Han, you know my heart.”
Kim Hyun-min blinked nervously at Yoo-hyun, who pretended not to know and tilted his head.
“I don’t know.”
“What, what?”
“Hahaha.”
The team members laughed again at the flustered Kim Hyun-min.
They all held their mouths and barely held back their laughter in front of President Lim.
Leaving the team members behind, President Lim approached Yoo-hyun.
“Han, you came well.”
“I was going to visit you.”
“I was a little restless waiting for you. Did I come for nothing?”
“No. If you have time, can I tell you now?”
“Good. I want to hear your plan soon.”
It was the moment when President Lim nodded his head readily.
Kim Hyun-min, who had been listening to their conversation, asked curiously.
“Plan? What are you doing, Han?”
“I guess you haven’t heard yet. Han is going to join our company now.”
“Huh. Is that true?”
“Are you really coming back?”
“Wow. Really?”
The team members were all surprised and their eyes widened.
Wow.
Before Yoo-hyun could open his mouth, Kim Hyun-min hugged him.
Kim Hyun-min didn’t even see President Lim in his eyes.
“I knew it. Yoo-hyun, you would come back to me. I’ve been waiting for you so long.”
“You called him a traitor a while ago.”
“I’ll sew up my mouth. You came well. I’ll treat you well from now on. I’ll buy you food every day.”
Kim Hyun-min smiled and patted Yoo-hyun’s back.
His eyes were full of affection, but that was only for a moment.
President Lim poured cold water on him.
“Han is not going under you.”
“What do you mean?”
President Lim confirmed the kill, looking at Kim Hyun-min, who blinked his eyes.
“I’ll give him a new organization.”
“What is that…”
“Han will be the leader of the newly established TF.”
“What? He’s still a section chief, right?”
President Lim asked back to the bewildered Kim Hyun-min.
“If he has the ability, he should use it. Right?”
“Well, yes.”
“Then that’s it. Han, are you going to talk about what kind of organization it is here?”
President Lim tried to pass the baton, but Yoo-hyun shook his head.
No. I’ll tell you after I sort things out with the president."
“Okay. Then let’s go up to my office.”
“Yes. I understand. Just a moment.”
Yoo-hyun answered President Lim and whispered to Kim Hyun-min.
“Director, let’s have a drink together today.”
“Just the two of us?”
“Yes. I have to pay for my promotion.”
“Oh, yes.”
Kim Hyun-min’s face brightened as he remembered that Yoo-hyun had been promoted to section chief.
Then he managed his expression.
He gave Yoo-hyun a thumbs up and nodded to the team members.
After that, he followed President Lim.
After Yoo-hyun left, Choi Min-hee, the team leader, sneaked up to Kim Hyun-min.
“Director, what did Han say?”
“It’s a secret, a secret. Don’t be curious about useless things, and get ready for the presentation.”
Kim Hyun-min turned away, waving his hand sternly.
Choi Min-hee looked at Kim Hyun-min, who was walking away with a heavy load, and was dumbfounded.
“Why is he so happy?”
***
The 14th floor president’s office was a little bigger than the Hansung Tower business director’s office.
As befitting the display president, there was an ultra-thin 80-inch TV on the wall, and a transparent display on the window.
The table had a flexible display made of OLED that caught the eye.
Since the visitors here were major figures, it was a way to promote them without words.
Looking at this, I understood why he decorated the lobby like that.
Both the lobby and the president’s office were small exhibition halls with themes.
Yoo-hyun looked around the interesting scenery and sat on the sofa, exchanging light greetings.
“Han, the last party was…”
“I happened to be there too…”
They had a lot to talk about because they had a deep connection, but now was the time to focus on the essence.
Yoo-hyun found the right timing and went straight to the point.
Swoosh.
As Yoo-hyun took out a document from his bag and handed it over, President Lim took it.
“What is this?”
“It’s the proposal I told you about on the phone.”
“When did you find time to organize this?”
“I just organized it briefly. I thought it would be better to tell you while you look at it.”
“That’s fine with me. Then I’ll check it out first.”
“Yes. Please ask me any questions and I’ll answer them.”
President Lim skimmed through the report that Yoo-hyun had organized over the weekend.
The core of what Yoo-hyun wanted to do was in the few pages.
President Lim’s expression changed subtly as he scanned the last page.
“A display using semiconductors.”
“Yes. Using semiconductor substrates, we can create much more diverse applications.”
“You mean you want to start with OLED using semiconductor substrates, and ultimately do micro LED?”
“Yes. You can think of it as making LED displays much denser. If the LED size is less than 100 micrometers, it is possible to make high-resolution TVs.”
It sounded good, but it was not easy to make them 10 times smaller than the existing LEDs.
Even if they did, it was not easy to attach them one by one.
President Lim, who had a rough understanding, asked to confirm.
“There is nothing developed yet, right?”
“The competitors are working on it, but there is no product. Our company is reviewing it at Hansung Electronics Future Product Research Center.”
“Hmm, I see.”
President Lim nodded as if he understood.
He looked at Yoo-hyun after a brief pause.
“Han, I hope you don’t misunderstand me.”
“Please tell me.”
“I’ll make an organization for you as I promised you. In any form.”
“Thank you.”
“But this proposal you just made is too much for me. I know your skills well, but I still think it won’t work.”
President Lim was not someone who became president by playing and eating.
He had come this far by receiving countless reports and making countless decisions.
The fact that he had this reaction from his mouth meant that he had already calculated.
Yoo-hyun answered calmly, as it was expected.
“I know why you say that.”
“You do?”
“Yes. First of all, it is not realistic in terms of price or production. Also, there is no part of our factory that can be used to make this.”
“That’s right. Making LEDs has nothing to do with our company.”
President Lim added a word to Yoo-hyun’s criticism of his proposed idea.
Yoo-hyun agreed with that part too.
“I know that. That’s why I made a video wall instead of a display board.”
“I see. But why did you propose this?”
“Because it is a technology that is essential for the future of our company. If we want to prepare for 10 years later, we have to build the foundation now.”
Yoo-hyun himself was the one who used Apple to get the factory investment.
He also pushed for the retina premium and OLED factory investment.
Yoo-hyun was at the center of every major event.
That was why President Lim couldn’t just pass it by, even if it sounded like nonsense.
“You seem confident?”
“Of course.”
“So you’re asking for a whole meeting as you wrote on the last page?”
President Lim held out the last page of the paper that Yoo-hyun had handed over.
There were a list of related departments for this matter.
“Yes. That’s right. I’m going to convince them then.”
“Why do you have to start so hard? It would be better to untangle the tangled organizations one by one, and make a concrete plan first.”
It was difficult to persuade all the organizations with vested interests without a concrete plan.
President Lim’s concern was not wrong, but Yoo-hyun thought differently.
Rather, because it was hard to persuade, he wanted to call everyone now with President Lim on his back.
There would be no organization that would oppose it if the president said he would do it.
As much as he needed his help to speed up the acquisition of Shinwa Semiconductor, Yoo-hyun showed his will without hesitation.
“I’m not here to play. I want to do it right, and I need your help to do that.”
“Help, huh… Well, if you can convince them, of course you can.”
“I’m going to make it happen.”
Yoo-hyun kept planting the possibility in President Lim’s head.
President Lim, who had opposed a while ago, started to talk as if Yoo-hyun could do it.
“I see. Then, how are you going to organize the TF staff?”
“I’ll consult with each organization after I persuade them.”
“You won’t be alone until then, and the staff that Vice President Shin Kyung-wook mentioned will be filled, right?”
President Lim expected Yoo-hyun to answer quickly.
“Yes. That’s right. And I’m going to ask for help from some departments.”
“If you need to, you can use my name.”
“Thank you.”
Yoo-hyun bowed his head and President Lim asked out of the blue.
“By the way, what are you going to name the TF?”
“Do you have any good ideas?”
“Let me see, since you’re looking at the future 10 years later… Oh, yes. Future Technology TF would be good.”
President Lim clapped his hands and smiled broadly.
He had been hesitating for a while.
His naming sense was not very good, but there was no reason to argue.
It was better to leave it as it is.
He would pay more attention to it, since he named it himself.
“That’s very good.”
“Haha. I’m good at naming things. The strategic product planning charge is also my work. It means a term that combines sales, marketing, and product planning…”
“Oh, yes. I see.”
Yoo-hyun reacted appropriately to President Lim’s words, who was excited.
‘I guess the desire to be praised is the same for employees and presidents.’
He barely held back a laugh that came to his mind.
Anyway, that’s how the name of Yoo-hyun’s first organization was decided.
When Yoo-hyun came back to the 12th floor, the office was empty.
Not only the mobile strategic product planning team, but also the TV, IT strategic product planning team seats were empty.
Yoo-hyun looked around the empty office and looked at the nameplates attached to each seat.
Since the Innovation Product TF was promoted to the charge as it was, most of the people in the TV, IT team were also familiar.
Even Lee Bon-seok, the team leader, and Jang Jun-hong, the team leader, who wanted to get away from him, kept their seats.
‘Will the relationship be okay?’
The relationship with Kim Hyun-min, the executive director, was temporarily calm because of the success of the retina premium.
They were busy and doing well, so they had no reason to show their teeth to each other.
But the situation had changed now.
After transferring the retina premium products to each business unit, the strategic product planning charge was focused on OLED, a new item.
It meant that the uncertainty increased and the possibility of achieving results decreased.
In this situation, if the leader couldn’t hold the center, the two team leaders with experience would be perfect prey.
-There will be a presentation check meeting in the conference room. I told the director, so you can come in when you come down.
Yoo-hyun remembered the message that Choi Min-hee, the team leader, had sent him, and wanted to check it out, he approached the conference room.
