Lamb restaurant.
“It feels like a dream to be able to work at the same company as the vice president again.”
“I’m the type of person who will stay for a while and then leave. If it’s because of me, do you think they should cancel my acceptance?”
Shin Byeong-hun said while tipping his glass to the bottle of alcohol that Dong-hoon Oh was pouring for him.
“Hahaha. No, Vice President.”
“Why did you quit your good job and apply to our company?”
“Don’t you know how difficult it is to get promoted at a construction company? The money is not worth the effort.”
Oh Dong-hoon started his first job at Hanyoung Construction before entering the city and city construction, and hired Shin Byeong-hun as the head of the department.
When Hanyoung Construction went bankrupt in the aftermath of the IMF, he moved to a provincial construction company, where he worked for nearly six years.
“Isn’t the basic salary much lower here? If I can’t sell, I can live just sucking my fingers.”
“I was working on the overseas sales team at my previous company, so I’m not too worried. But there’s no concept of incentives there. I don’t feel like I’m being treated as well as I am for my work.”
“Yes. The main stage was Eastern Europe, right?”
“Yes, Vice President.”
“The boss had a big influence in selecting you.”
“Are you President Yoo Ji-hoon?”
“Yes. It looks like there is something else going on.”
“You’re talking about Eastern Europe.”
Oh Dong-hoon thought for a moment and then nodded.
“I guess it’s Ukraine.”
“Ukraine?”
“Yes. The oil pipeline facilities connected to Russia were outdated and needed repairs. It is said that some facilities were destroyed due to the typhoon and oil leaked, but we are not sure about the exact details as we are just whispering internally.”
“What do you think the scale of the construction will be?”
“At best, it will be more than $1 billion.”
“It’s large.”
Oh Dong-hoon seemed to remember something and spoke to Shin Byeong-hun.
“Could it be that you are planning a consortium with the city and city construction companies? The Korea-English Group does not have construction, and the city and city construction companies do not have overseas sales power.”
“It sounds like you didn’t do your job well?”
“Whether you do well or not, the amount you receive is fixed, so who would be greedy? Moreover, it was too difficult for Korean companies to enter Europe and Africa.”
“Well, that’s right.”
“It is a miracle that Korea-English Corporation, one of the top 30 companies in the business world, has penetrated Africa.”
At Oh Dong-hoon’s words, Shin Byeong-hun nodded, thinking of Kim Cheol-soo.
“I was in charge of a Nigerian construction project in the past, and it seemed like the higher-ups wanted to sign a partnership with Hanyoung Corporation. If they are really thinking about a consortium this time, I think it could be seen as an extension of that.”
“Really? Um…what do you think of city and city construction?”
“I don’t know what will happen because there is a severe outflow of human resources. The treatment is not that good compared to competitors. After all, aren’t people running the business of a company?”
“Right. Then let me ask you a question. If you wanted to form a consortium, which construction company would you choose?”
Oh Dong-hoon, who thought for a moment, opened his mouth.
“I would like to see city construction.”
“Didn’t you just say you weren’t very good?”
“Yes. So, when forming a consortium, we can negotiate a contract that is advantageous to us. If the other party is a wealthy company, we cannot make a big noise. It would be better to deal with the party that has something to be desired. Besides, I am familiar with their situation, right?”
“Ho! Is it pretty?”
“That’s too much praise, Mr. Vice President.”
‘It’s okay. There are also eyes to see. It won’t be bad. I can almost understand why CEO Yoo Ji-hoon chose Oh Dong-hoon. President Yu… he thinks deeply as expected.’
Shin Byeong-hoon finished his brief evaluation of Oh Dong-hoon and raised his glass in a toast.
Oh Dong-hoon took out a piece of lamb skewer that was cooked to perfection and placed it on the plate in front of Shin Byeong-hun.
“Who is your wife?”
Oh Dong-hoon sighed and answered those words.
“I got divorced. The vice president officiated the wedding, but I couldn’t keep it.”
Shin Byeong-Hoon also showed a sad expression.
“Oh my. Who are you dating?”
“Not yet.”
“Don’t be too disappointed. Someday you will meet a good person.”
“Yes, Vice President. Thank you.”
Shin Byeong-hun chewed a lamb skewer and opened his mouth.
“But did you know that it is difficult for experienced employees to become executives at Hanyoung Group?”
“Yes, but the world is changing so quickly, shouldn’t the company change too?”
“Hehe. Of course that’s possible. You’re going to work hard with that mindset, right?”
“sure.”
“I like it. Would you like another drink?”
Shin Byeong-hun raised his glass again.
“Yes. But Vice President, are you still alone?”
“Otherwise, would I have been able to share a drink with you at this time?”
“Hahaha. That’s it again.”
“I have to go to the cage quickly.”
“It’s not easy.”
“Look around the company. There are a lot of good people there.”
“Haha. Is that so?”
Oh Dong-hoon secretly thought of Shin Kyeong-mi.
“Just tell me. I’ll support you.”

Oh Dong-hoon smiled at Shin Byeong-hun’s words.
“Is there anything soft?”
Shin Byeong-Hoon nodded his head loudly at those words.
‘My eyes won’t deceive me about who you applied to this company for.’

“Shouldn’t we look at the bigger picture?”
After the Lunar New Year, Kim Hyo-shin visited Park Jun-hyung’s office.
Kim Hyo-shin understood why this personnel decision was made, but he could not hide his disappointment, and Park Jun-hyung read Kim Hyo-shin’s mind like a ghost.
“yes?”
“Resource development and project organizing will now become the company’s central businesses. And executives will also come from those teams. I did not send Manager Kim there for that simple reason. Team leader Ahn Jung-gyu and Manager Lee Jun-hak are currently in control. One day, Manager Kim will have to join that team. There is a significant difference between seeing it from afar and experiencing it up close.”
“Ah, then…”
“If Manager Kim’s abilities and performance are objectively revealed, I will pursue moving him to the resource development team.”
Kim Hyo-shin nodded his head slightly as if he understood those words.
“I didn’t know there was such a meaning, Managing Director.”
“No. It’s my fault for not saying anything.”
“Oh, no. So all I have to do is report what’s happening in Sales Department 3?”
“Yes. Please report everything that could reveal Team Leader Ahn Jung-gyu’s weaknesses.”
“All right.”
“I have high expectations for Manager Kim.”
“Yes, Managing Director.”
“And the instructions I give are side projects. Once the company is doing well, there will be internal politics. I hope you do well in the grain team just like you did in the steel team.”
At Park Jun-hyung’s words, Kim Hyo-shin bowed his head with a completely straight face.
“Hold on to your worries.”
“Good.”
After a brief conversation, when Kim Hyo-shin left, Park Jun-hyung sat at his desk and recalled his conversation with Kim Hyo-shin.
“People are so simple. They think that if you say a few nice words, everything will be fine. It’s difficult for simple people to succeed in a company. They won’t last long.”
Then, he began to carefully look at the personnel records of new and experienced employees.
‘Are there no other guys like Kim Cheol-su?’
**
One week after the Lunar New Year ends.
The organizational reorganization was carried out on a large scale, and Manager Kim Hyo-shin had already entered the sales department 3, settled down, and started working.
Manager Kim Hyo-shin, who follows Park Joon-hyung’s line, thought he might be ostracized, but he didn’t feel that way at all and was able to adapt easily.
‘It’s amazing.’
Even Deputy Director Pyo Il-soo did not give any unreasonable instructions.
Of course, since we weren’t close, I didn’t pretend to be friendly.
As the head of the grain team, I was envious of the way he got along with the resource development team without hesitation.
Two new employees appeared in Sales Division 3.
One was Manager Oh Dong-hoon, whose face was familiar to the members of the sales department 3 team, and the other was a new employee with a nerdy style similar to Kim Cheol-soo.
This company is strange
“hello.”
“What is this familiar feeling? “I don’t think this is your first time seeing your face?”
“I saw you briefly because of the Nigeria incident.”
“ah! City construction?”
“yes.”
“nice to meet.”
Ahn Jeong-gyu briefly shook hands with Oh Dong-hoon and then looked at the new employee sitting next to him.
“Your name is Lee Hansu?”
“yes. “My name is Lee Han-su, a new member of the 22nd class.”
Ahn Jeong-gyu nodded with an expression of satisfaction at the energetic answer.
Ahn Jeong-gyu finished identifying the tendencies of newly hired employees by having brief conversations with them.
“Chief Oh will go straight to work. “You can help Manager Shin Kyeong-mi in the resource development team.”
“yes. manager.”
“I may have to take charge of the Kenya mine case, so discuss it carefully with Manager Shin.”
“I had a little chat with the executives before joining the company. Is this Kenya contract also taken by Assistant Manager Kim Cheol-soo?”
“That’s right. For now, Manager Lee Jun-hak and Assistant Manager Kim Cheol-soo will focus on sales. Because I don’t really know anything about this field. And you and Manager Shin Gyeong-mi will be doing various tasks necessary to fulfill the contract. “As soon as you have time, please let Assistant Manager Kim Cheol-soo know about your work.”
“All right.”
After finishing talking with Oh Dong-hoon, Ahn Jeong-gyu looked at Lee Han-soo sitting next to him.
“newcomer.”
“yes.”
“First of all, you need to do some work in the grain team.”
Lee Han-soo tilted his head at Ahn Jung-gyu’s words.
I heard you were going to the resource development team.
“I’m heading to the resource development team…”
“uh. The HR team assigned me there, but there were no people in the grain team. “Why don’t you like it?”
When Ahn Jeong-gyu asked with a slight frown, Lee Han-soo gulped for a moment.
Manager Oh Dong-hoon’s coming to Hanyoung Corporation was also a strategic decision by the Chairman of Shido Group, and his coming to this company was also one of those strategic decisions.
Although I was reluctant to leave a company where I could comfortably work, my father, Chairman Lee Geon-wook, was stubborn.
First of all, this time, it meant establishing a consortium with Hanyoung Trading Company to advance into Kenya and build a network based on that to establish a bridgehead for expansion into Africa.
Oh Dong-hoon, who was next to him, nodded his head as if looking at a distant mountain, and Lee Han-soo quickly changed his expression and spoke.
“no. manager.”
Ahn Jeong-gyu, who always has his antennae up, detected secret communication between Oh Dong-hoon and Lee Han-soo.
‘Do we know each other? Or did you become friends when you came here?’
“okay. “What about school?”
“I graduated from Seoul National University’s Department of Business Administration.”
“Do you have any internship experience?”
“yes. “I interned at a city construction company.”
Ahn Jeong-gyu glanced at Oh Dong-hoon and asked.
“So you have a friendly relationship with Manager Oh Dong-hoon?”
Oh Dong-hoon nodded and answered those words.
“yes. “You interned under me.”
‘oh? You mean the overseas sales team?’
Ahn Jeong-gyu nodded.
“okay? “First of all, I’ll have to take care of the grain team’s work until it stabilizes.”
“yes. All right.”
Ahn Jeong-gyu nodded and thought for a moment.
‘Who should be the shooter for this guy? I like Cheolsu, but this guy is two years older than Cheolsu. It might be uncomfortable for both of us. I’ll have to leave it to Manager Lee Jun-hak.’
Ahn Jeong-gyu looked at Lee Han-su quietly and said.
“With what determination did you join this company?”
“I joined the company with the intention of learning as much as possible.”
‘Learning?’
Ahn Jeong-gyu was slightly puzzled by Lee Han-soo’s answer, but nodded.
“okay. “You’re going to endure no matter what, right?”
“yes.”
“okay. There is only one mindset that new employees should have when they join the company. “I have the mindset to hold on until next year.”
Even though Ahn Jeong-gyu made repeated requests, he was still worried about the same thing.
‘Lee Jun-hak….’
