“As you know, the share of general trading companies in Korea’s exports reached 40% in 2000, but it fell to 25% last year and is expected to fall further in the future. We all agree that the time has come for business restructuring and diversification. It must be a bar.”
The discussion began with an opening speech by Vice President Shin Byeong-hoon, who hosted the meeting.
The planning team selected projects with high potential from the special business plans submitted company-wide and submitted them to Byeong-Hoon Shin, who carefully reviewed each one.
In conjunction with the group planning office, we selected 12 projects with potential, and held a meeting at the team leader level or higher to have an in-depth discussion.
Four business plans were selected during the two-hour marathon meeting.
“Two cases came from Sales Team 5.”
President Yoo Ji-hoon pointed to Manager Pyo Il-soo’s ‘Australian coal mine development case’ and Assistant Manager Lee Jun-hak’s ‘Establishment of a privatized hospital in Singapore’.
“The performance of the 5 sales teams has been very good these days, thanks to Team Manager Ahn’s hard work.”
“Thank you, boss.”
Ahn Jeong-gyu, who was sitting in the corner, expressed his gratitude to Yoo Ji-hoon’s praise.
Meanwhile, Choi Young-jun was fiddling with the Kenya plan submitted by employee Kim Cheol-soo among the 12 business plans in front of him, and glanced at the people gathered around him.
Except for the head of the sales division, Executive Director Yoo Young-sik and Deputy Manager Ahn Jung-gyu, he did not yet have anyone of his own.
Choi Youngjun turned his eyes to the desk again and tapped the documents with his fingernails.
My father, Chairman Choi Kyung-hoon, was a person who did not often talk nonsense.
Even if you like it, I’m not telling you to grow it and use it.
The same goes for Manager Park Jun-hyung.
The project submitted by employee Kim Cheol-soo was very risky, but if successful, a single project could generate close to 25% of the company’s sales.
This is the performance that two sales teams can produce in one year.
I couldn’t beat President Yoo Ji-hoon by playing normally.
Choi Young-jun, who believed that he needed to show special performance and overcome his incompetence, decided that now was the right time.
After organizing his thoughts, Youngjun Choi turned on the microphone.
“I have one more suggestion.”
There’s something a little strange (starting with paid)
“The Kenya deal is high risk. It was a very reckless deal, Mr. Managing Director.”
Ahn Jeong-gyu said that and recalled what happened in the conference room.
Choi Young-jun said that we should also pursue the agenda created by Kim Cheol-soo, and there was a long discussion about its feasibility.
If it can be successful, it is the best plan for increasing performance, but the likelihood of success is low for a new team with no experience, and everyone was opposed to it because of the risk that the company’s operating profit could turn into a deficit if the price of iron ore received as a stake falls. .
However, Choi Young-jun pushed for this, saying he would take full responsibility, and President Yoo Ji-hoon agreed.
On the condition that if it fails, Youngjun Choi takes all responsibility.
“Does Team Leader Ahn think so too?”
“I completely sympathize with the reason why the executive director made such a choice. When successful, there will be a complete reevaluation of the executive director’s abilities. There will certainly be more people who like the executive director, and the chairman will also keep an eye on the executive director.”
“Yes.”
“But this incident could completely destroy the executive director.”
Choi Young-jun responded to Ahn Jung-gyu’s words.
“I understand Team Leader Ahn’s concerns. I also wanted to go in a stable direction. But the more I go, the gap between me and my brothers who are presidents of affiliates is widening. If we don’t take risks that can narrow the gap in what we have, we won’t be able to create any variables and end up like this. “I thought it was possible, so I thought I needed an adventure.”
“I completely understand. But when it comes to Kenya… he is the only one who can do it. Even if he is capable, I don’t know if he can do it well with only about 5 months of experience.”
At those words, Choi Youngjun raised his drink.
An Jeong-gyu also quickly raised his glass and clinked it together.
Choi Youngjun lightly emptied half a glass and opened his mouth.
“Do you know Chohanji?”
“Yes, Managing Director.”
“I really sympathized with the character named Bang who appeared there. I thought for a long time about how he, a simple man in his mid-40s who had nothing, no fame, and had achieved nothing, could become the emperor of the Han Dynasty.”
Ahn Jeong-gyu put down his drink and looked at Choi Young-jun.
“What Liu Bang knew how to do was listen to what people said. It was probably because he knew that his abilities were worthless. If Liu Bang was stubborn, things would inevitably go wrong, and the situation would always turn unfavorable.”
“Manager….”
“In some ways, it may seem like I’m being stubborn and not listening to Team Leader Ahn this time.”
“no.”
Choi Young-jun emptied the remaining alcohol in his glass, and Ahn Jung-gyu quickly filled it.
“The chairman told me something like that. He brought up the name of employee Kim Cheol-soo and told him to raise him well and put him to good use.”
Ahn Jeong-gyu was surprised at those words and opened his eyes wide.
“The chairman?”
“Yes. I was a bit surprised, too. No matter how much I like someone, I still like him on the inside. Isn’t that how much he likes the Chairman?”
Ahn Jeong-gyu nodded, thinking of Kim Cheol-soo, who had said that nothing had happened after the private meeting with the chairman.
‘You’re like a son of a snake.’
Choi Young-jun continued, recalling Kim Cheol-soo, who gave a confident presentation in English at the presentation.
“As Team Leader Ahn knows, I don’t trust myself. I’m too inadequate. So this time, I’m going to try to trust the Chairman’s insight.”
Choi Young-jun’s weakness was that he did not have the charisma to attract people, and his strength was that he was able to become his closest aide, even though he only had the rank of deputy manager.
At first, I thought I had no choice but to choose Executive Director Choi, but as time went by, I realized that my choice was not a bad choice at all.
“Please do so, Director.”
“Team Leader Ahn is already my best friend. As he showed during the 6-Sigma presentation, I hope that employee Kim Cheol-soo will turn this unfavorable situation around like Han Shin, who was the king of breasts.”
“We will make sure that happens.”
“Good. Now is there anything else we need to do to make this happen?”
This time, Choi Young-jun came forward actively, and Ahn Jeong-gyu thought slowly before opening his mouth.
“A machine needs to be well-oiled to run well. Before we get down to business in Kenya, it would be a good idea to grease our diplomatic relations. Don’t you like safaris, Mr. Chairman?”
Choi Young-jun smiled and nodded at Ahn Jung-gyu’s words.
“I often watch the animal kingdom at home. Then I guess I should try to get the chairman to make a move.”

When Lee Jun-hak went in to wash, Jang Hye-young opened the suitcase with an anxious mind and carefully checked the clothes Lee Jun-hak was wearing.
Although I have always been an upright person, my anxiety continued to grow after hearing what happened to Kang Yun-sik.
Although she paused because she thought it was paralysis, her eyes were moving with enough precision to catch a single hair on her shirt.
“phew.”
Jang Hye-young let out a short sigh of relief when she found no traces of suspicion.
‘Of course it is. ‘Who is your brother?’
Jang Hye-young organized the bag and put the laundry in the basket, organized the rest of the luggage, and handed Lee Jun-hak the pajamas when he came out.
“thank you.”
“What. Are you tired? Would you like a glass of honey water?”
Honey water when you should be sleeping.
Lee Jun-hak, who knew that it was a turning expression that Jang Hye-young used when she wanted to talk, nodded.
After turning on the coffee pot and putting a spoonful of honey in the cup, Jang Hye-young sat down at the table and spoke to Lee Jun-hak.
“Have you met Yunsik?”
“huh.”
“Aren’t you saying anything else?”
“what?”
“I heard you are divorcing In-young?”
Lee Jun-hak briefly recalled the conversation he had with Kang Yun-sik.
You said you were separated, but divorced?
“okay?”
“You’re such a close friend and you never even talk about that?”
“I didn’t have time to talk about such things because I was working.”
Jang Hye-young told a story she had heard while stirring the sticky honey in a cup with a spoon.
“I’ve been thinking about it, but I don’t think it’s normal for Yoonsik to give in to temptation. If he hadn’t gone to Jujaewon, don’t you think the family wouldn’t have fallen apart like that?”
“Why are you talking like that all of a sudden?”
“It’s because I’m worried. Where do you think your brother will go when he goes to work as an expatriate?”
“Maybe it’s the Southeast Asian side? The other side is already full of people.”
Lee Jun-hak was thinking of Singapore, but he was not sure, so he deliberately changed the subject.
Jang Hye-young’s eyes shook at the mention of Southeast Asia.
‘This can never be done!’
“Let’s not go to Southeast Asia.”
“Why? Because of Assistant Manager Kang’s job?”
Hyeyoung Jang nodded her head loudly.
“What are you going to do Jihoon?”
“I already looked it up, and I heard that Korea has also entered into a legislative process regarding international schools. Wouldn’t it be possible for Jihoon to enroll by the time he starts school?”
“I’m serious?”
“Yes. Unless you are in a developed country, I don’t want you to go there as an expatriate. I don’t want to take the risk of going there.”
Lee Jun-hak slowly turned his gaze and looked at the already packed suitcase.
I was worried that Jihoon would wake up when I returned late from a business trip, so I usually cleaned it up the next day, but seeing that it was neatly empty, it seemed like they were checking to see if something had happened in the Philippines.
Lee Jun-hak said as he looked at Jang Hye-young pouring hot water into a cup with anxious eyes.
“Let’s think about it.”
It wasn’t something that could be undone by just the two of them deciding.
Lee Jun-hak had no idea how Team Leader Ahn Jung-gyu would come out.
