Rookie Employee Kim Cheolsu Chapter 275

– Jukbang (竹房)

Kim Cheol-soo chuckled when he saw the sign with a strange tone.

Park Joon-hyung contacted me saying he really needed to see it, and Kim Cheol-soo took advantage of the time he didn’t have.

“welcome. “Boss Kim.”

When I saw Park Jun-hyung bowing his head politely with a nice look, I realized what kind of person he was.

To people much younger than you, and to the employees you hired.

How many people can bow their heads like that without the slightest hesitation?

Weak to the strong, strong to the weak.

Kim Cheol-soo was now the president of a conglomerate affiliate, and Park Jun-hyung was merely an executive of the affiliate.

However, Kim Cheol-soo actually bowed deeper.

Some of his abilities were learned solely from Park Jun-hyung.

The last day I thoroughly benchmarked Park Jun-hyung in order to survive.

I already knew that the reason he lowered his head with a sincere expression was because he needed me.

“long time no see. “Director Park.”

“It would be difficult if you bent down like that.”

“I respect you in many ways. “I’m serious.”

The reason Park Jun-hyung fired himself from his company in the past.

Perhaps it was because he saw himself as a competitor in his own way.

Otherwise, there would have been no reason to fire them.

Park Jun-hyung, who obviously didn’t know what Kim Cheol-soo was thinking, smiled and offered him a seat.

“But this place…”

“I came here once before, and it tasted pretty good.”

“okay.”

“I ordered the course. It will be okay, right?”

“The treatment is excessive. Jjajang and Jjamppong are enough for me.”

Park Jun-hyung burst into laughter at Kim Cheol-soo’s words, poured water and handed it to Kim Cheol-soo.

“Is Unho okay these days?”

“Thanks to Boss Kim, things have improved a lot. “He even begs me once in a while to say he wants to see the boss.”

“I guess I’ll have to go again later.”

“I will drive and pick you up then.”

Kim Cheol-soo shook his head with an absurd expression.

After a while.

The food started to be served, and the two talked about what happened during the holiday.

When the main course was almost finished, Kim Cheol-soo opened his mouth.

“He said he really needed to talk to me. “May I ask why?”

The smile disappeared from Park Jun-hyung’s face.

“I heard it from CEO Youngjun Choi. “He played a big role in keeping the Korean-English General Trading Company under his control.”

“It’s thanks to Director Park for providing the information.”

“I honestly had no idea that they would not only cut down Park Moo-young, but also cut down all the branches.”

“I just did what I had to do.”

Kim Cheol-soo quietly took a step back in response to Park Jun-hyung’s praise.

“I guess that’s not why you called me?

Park Jun-hyung nodded with a strange smile.

“I received some information, but I’m not sure how to respond, so I’d like to get some advice.”

Park Jun-hyung gets advice from himself?

Kim Cheol-soo shook his head slightly.

“I don’t know if I can help.”

“It’s about the Chairman’s family. “I think President Kim knows better than me.”

“··· The chairman’s family. “What is it about?”

Kim Cheol-soo also spoke with a serious expression.

“It’s something that only appears in dramas or movies.”

Park Jun-hyung paused with a cautious expression.

I really thought a lot about whether it would be okay to tell Kim Cheol-soo.

If he had even the slightest connection with Choi Oh-jun, he would be in a dangerous situation.

Only after confirming that Kim Cheol-soo had properly dealt with Park Moo-young was he able to make a decision.

Otherwise, I would never have brought this up.

“Someone is trying to abet the chairman’s family to commit murder.”

Contract murder.

For a moment, Kim Cheol-soo’s poker face almost shook.

‘Contract murder…?’

Chairman’s family? Contract murder?

This is because Choi Hye-na flashed in his mind.

A facial expression that is so stiff that it is scary.

As he looked into Kim Cheol-soo’s eyes, with blue light pouring in, Park Jun-hyung felt a shiver run down his spine and trembled.

“Is this about my wife?”

“no.”

As soon as he answered, Kim Cheol-soo returned to his usual appearance.

At that sight, Park Jun-hyung clicked his tongue inwardly without even realizing it.

“Why not report it to the police and handle it?”

“It’s not like that.”

The provincial government was installed only in villas.

This was to exploit Choi Oh-jun’s weakness by illegally taking anesthetic and using drugs.

I had no idea about what was happening in other places.

Also, because it was illegal wiretapping, if you reported it to the police, you could be the only one shackled.

He doesn’t know what Choi Oh-jun, with his cruel nature, might do to him.

“Due to certain circumstances, I cannot report it to the police.”

“I think I can help you if you tell me in detail who is targeting whom.”

Park Jun-hyung looked around for a moment.

There is a proverb that says a word is worth a thousand nyang, but there is also a proverb that a meaningless word is worth a thousand nyang.

It was a story that was difficult to say out loud.

After looking around for a while, Park Jun-hyung seemed to have made up his mind and slowly opened his mouth.

“I think···.”

Facing Kim Cheol-soo’s clear eyes looking at him, Park Jun-hyung continued speaking.

“It seems like CEO Oh-Jun Choi is targeting CEO Gyeong-Jun Choi.”

**

March 2nd.

The day when Hanyoung Mercury’s opening ceremony and Kim Cheol-soo’s inauguration ceremony as president are held.

Kim Cheol-soo thought for a long time in the dressing room before going to work.

Between the old briefcase my father gave me and the new bag Hye-na bought me.

‘Not yet.’

At the same time, Kim Cheol-soo picked up an old briefcase.

“joy!”

Hearing Choi Hye-na’s voice leaving the living room with pounding footsteps, Kim Cheol-soo followed her in a huff.

“Oh my! What’s wrong?”

“joy!”

Jin-sook Yoon, who was almost always staying at Hye-na’s house, came over, leaving the real estate work to her younger brother, Jeong-ho Yoon.

While holding Somi after breakfast, I ran into Choi Hye-na, who was coming out of the living room with a sullen expression on her face.

“Cheolsu! “You bastard, what have you done again?”

Kim Cheol-su scratched his head.

The mother-in-law conflict did not exist between Yoon Jin-sook and Choi Hye-na from the beginning.

“I didn’t do anything.”

“What did you do to make Hye-na upset like that?”

“···.”

Choi Hye-na hid behind Yoon Jin-sook, stuck out her tongue, and quickly changed her expression.

“I’m going to work quickly. “It’s an important day, but I’m going to be late.”

“··· all right.”

Kim Cheol-soo looked at his watch, scratched his head, then smiled awkwardly and walked out the front door.

– Tiririk.

When he left, Choi Hye-na opened her mouth while stroking Somi in Yoon Jin-sook’s arms.

“mother.”

“why?”

“What does that old bag mean to you, Cheolsu?”

“bag?”

“yes. I bought him a better bag, but I never feel like carrying it around. I guess he doesn’t like what I bought him. “I’m upset!”

Jinsook Yoon immediately smiled and shook her head.

When I was accepted to the Hanyoung General Trading Company, I remembered Kim Cheol-soo taking out my husband’s bag that had been stored in the warehouse for over 10 years.

– Buy one, why are you taking out that bag?

– I will work hard and become the boss.

– So why that bag?

– I have to grant my deceased father’s lifelong wish.

-···Does all kinds of things.

At the time, I thought it was pointless, but it turns out it wasn’t.

As tears welled up in Jin-sook Yoon’s eyes, Hye-na Choi looked worried and didn’t know what to do.

“Uh, mother. “If I make any mistake…”

Jinsook Yoon wiped her eyes with her sleeve and smiled faintly.

“no. “It seems like that bag meant a lot to that guy.”

“is it so?”

“That bag is the bag that that guy’s father has been carrying since he first joined the company.”

Hye-na Choi listened to Jin-sook Yoon’s story.

It’s more ordinary than I thought

Kim Cheol-soo served as Man-nyeon employee, Man-nyeon assistant manager, and Man-nyeon manager for 18 years.

That’s how I became a deputy manager, and when I became a team leader, I was laid off.

So the title of president was unfamiliar to me.

“president. “Today’s schedule is…”

“wait a minute.”

Kim Cheol-soo raised his hand and briefly interrupted his secretary Kim Hee-eun.

He placed the old bag he was carrying in front of the name plate that said and opened his mouth.

“Mr. Hee-eun.”

“Yes, boss.”

“Does Hee-eun have an English name?”

“yes···?”

“From now on, please call me Charles, not boss.”

Kim Hee-eun was a talented person who came from a general trading company.

He seemed momentarily taken aback by Kim Cheol-soo’s order, but kept his expression in check like a veteran.

Since this person was famous for his unique team management style from his time at the general trading company, Kim Hee-eun quickly realized that this was an extension of that.

“Okay, Charles. “My English name will be Juliet.”

Kim Cheol-soo nodded with satisfied eyes.

“Why did Juliet come here?”

The developers hired new people.

Although it is still being recruited, most of the employees in the support department, which are supposed to be there, are from Hanyoung Corporation.

Kim Cheol-soo was selected, or he applied himself.

Manager Park Hae-seong, who worked in the planning team, came to Hanyoung Mercury as CFO, and Han Jeong-rim, who was in the human resources team, was brought by Kim Cheol-soo himself.

This is because he understood his own method best when it came to personnel management.

Of course, Robert, Song Jin-young, Lee Kyung-jeon, and Park Dong-gyu were all brought to Hanyoung Mercury.

Vice President Shin Byeong-hoon, who was head of the planning team at the headquarters, also came over under the chairman’s instructions.

Kim Yun-sam of I Love School and Jeong Jae-hwan of Freechal were also attracted to Hanyoung Mercury.

“The base salary is lower than that of Hanyoung Trading Company, but I was attracted to the idea that the company’s profits would be shared by the entire company.”

In an average company, incentives vary for each team depending on performance.

But Hanyoung Mercury used a different method.

It is easy for development and production teams to achieve results because they can set objective goals, but it is difficult for support teams such as secretaries to achieve results.

So, when everyone was having an incentive party, it was always disappointing for Kim Cheol-soo to have to suck his fingers.

“Because I know Charles’ abilities well, I thought he would receive greater incentives than his base salary if he came here.”

Kim Hee-eun had a calm expression as she spoke.

Is this an appropriate situation to say this now?

What kind of secretary would say something like this to the president’s face?

“Ah, the basic salary is small.”

Kim Cheol-soo nodded.

“It’s difficult if the basic salary of the person you have to work with with a busy schedule is low.”

As he also experienced, there is no greater joy for office workers than a salary increase and promotion.

We decided that talking about a huge vision and forcing sacrifices was not a good idea.

So, we discussed our dissatisfaction openly with each other and set a management direction to resolve the dissatisfaction.

The reason there was no need to talk about the vision was because we had already seen the future, and we were confident that the company would always grow.

You just need to lead the internal members well.

Kim Cheol-soo took out a small notebook from the inside pocket of his suit.

“If the company’s operating profit turns positive, the basic salary will have to be raised. “One day, we will raise our performance to a level where we can compete with American companies.”

A smile appeared on Kim Hee-eun’s face and then disappeared.

‘Is it okay to say this to a secretary, especially on the first day of work…?’

Even at a general trading company, young employees below the assistant manager level not only liked Kim Cheol-soo, but also respected him.

This is because, in addition to his incredible performance, he has a cool-headed demeanor and at the same time never loses his humanity.

So most of the employees who moved from general trading companies to this company were young.

“I will also work hard so that I can receive a reasonable salary.”

“Thank you, Juliet. “If you continue to hear stories or have complaints within the company, please feel free to share them at any time.”

“All right. So, today’s schedule is…”
