Chapter 552:

Shin Kyung-wook, the vice president, sighed as he heard Yoo-hyun’s determination.

-Sigh! Why do you have to go this far?

“Didn’t I tell you? I want to make Hansung Electronics the best company. And to do that, I have to step up now.”

-What if you don’t?

“We could fall behind by 10 years.”

-You’re thinking too extreme.

“You’re worrying too lightly, vice president.”

-…

He paused, as if he had a lot on his mind. Yoo-hyun spoke sincerely to him.

“Please, I beg you. This is something only you can do, vice president.”

-Really… You have a knack for making me unable to refuse.

“Isn’t that why you looked kindly on me?”

-Well, there’s some truth to that. Anyway, I got it. I’ll move right away.

Yoo-hyun was relieved when Shin Kyung-wook finally agreed.

“Thank you. Should I contact the media?”

-No. I’ve prepared in advance. I can meet them right now.

Shin Kyung-wook was indeed a person with an open mind.

Even though he said no, he had prepared a backup plan. Yoo-hyun smiled faintly at his words.

“You had the intention to do it from the beginning, didn’t you?”

-You never know what people will do.

“You can’t know what people will do. But this will go well. You can trust me.”

-You’re confident. freewёbnoνel.com

“It’s not something I do alone, but something we do together.”

Yoo-hyun wasn’t just saying that.

He had no reason to fail, with good colleagues supporting him from behind.

That confidence made Yoo-hyun move forward.

Vroom!

He drove fast on the open road.

When Yoo-hyun arrived at the Baekje Hotel, it was already after sunset.

He got out of the car and checked the message that Park Doo-sik, the manager, had sent him.

-I’ve finished talking with the editor-in-chief of Uri Ilbo, and I’m waiting for the additional interview. The vice president and I will be late, so you can talk to him first.

As the message said, Park Doo-sik was with Shin Kyung-wook at Uri Ilbo.

In the seminar room, Yeo Tae-sik, the executive director, and Park Seung-woo, the section chief, were waiting for the next action.

Yoo-hyun walked quickly and reviewed the current situation.

‘The things we prepared to acquire Shinwa Semiconductor…’

The core of the Shinwa Semiconductor acquisition was low-cost acquisition.

To achieve this, the Innovation Strategy Department found out the weaknesses that Shinwa Semiconductor was hiding.

They also created a channel to negotiate secretly, and finished the pre-preparation for the acquisition.

They had enough confidence after doing enough simulations.

But what?

Lee Joon-il, the director, appeared unexpectedly and turned the situation upside down.

It was annoying, regardless of the backup plan he had prepared.

Still, Yoo-hyun didn’t harden his expression.

Rather, he had a faint smile on his lips.

‘He must think he has set up a perfect trap.’

It was obvious that Lee Joon-il had verified his strategy several times.

What if he found out that there were holes in his strategy?

Maybe this was an opportunity to shake him up greatly.

Yoo-hyun finished his thoughts and turned the handle of the seminar room door.

Click.

It was time to press down on Lee Joon-il’s arrogant nose.

As he opened the door, Park Seung-woo and Yeo Tae-sik greeted him in turn.

“Oh? Yoo-hyun.”

“You finally came.”

“Hello.”

Yoo-hyun greeted them lightly and looked at the whiteboard between them.

There were risks and various items of the backup plan listed on it.

The parts that were checked frantically and the traces of erasing and writing several times showed their worries.

Since there was no time, Yoo-hyun grabbed a board marker.

“Can I continue to explain?”

“I was waiting for you.”

Yeo Tae-sik agreed cheerfully, and Yoo-hyun pointed to the part that Park Seung-woo had checked.

“As you wrote here, Lee Joon-il will spread the news that we are preparing for the Shinwa Semiconductor acquisition.”

“He doesn’t have to use the media to interfere with us, does he?”

“It’s the easiest and simplest way. And the risk is low.”

What would happen if the news that Hansung Group was interested in the acquisition spread through the media?

Regardless of the truth, Shinwa Semiconductor had to be on guard.

This meant that the original method of secretly moving behind the scenes failed.

Yeo Tae-sik nodded as if he agreed.

“Hmm, that’s true. He can avoid leaving any traces. Does that mean he knows all of our strategies?”

“Yes. It’s likely that it’s already leaked. That’s why he’s poking at the weakest link.”

“It is the weakest link. As soon as Shinwa Semiconductor is on guard, everything we prepared will fly away.”

“Not everything. There’s another way, even if the effect is halved.”

Park Seung-woo argued against Yeo Tae-sik, who approached coldly.

Yoo-hyun answered.

“It won’t be easy.”

“Why?”

“Not only Shinwa Semiconductor’s tackle, but also internal opposition will be added. We won’t be able to say the word ‘acquisition’ in this situation.”

There were already more than a few people who were grinding their teeth at Shin Kyung-wook.

The foreign executives who dominated Hansung Electronics were also part of them.

Would they agree with Shin Kyung-wook’s move?

It was nonsense, so Park Seung-woo was even more dumbfounded.

“Then the vice president shouldn’t go to the media, right? It’s obvious that he’ll be a scapegoat.”

“That’s why timing is important. We have to move before Lee Joon-il does.”

Yeo Tae-sik, who understood Yoo-hyun’s words, asked for confirmation.

“Just leak it a little, right?”

“Yes. The reporter will guide the question, and the vice president will only answer ‘yes’ or ‘no’.”

“That way, he can avoid criticism from the foreign executives. But then, won’t the effect of your backup plan be reduced?”

“Right. If you do as Yoo-hyun says, you have to make a big deal in the media. The vice president has to be more aggressive… Oh, then he’ll be a scapegoat.”

As Park Seung-woo’s words got tangled, there were two conflicting interests in this matter.

Shin Kyung-wook, the vice president, had to pretend to be indifferent in the interview, but also mention the acquisition strongly enough to fan the flames.

It was not an easy task, but it was possible for Shin Kyung-wook.

Yoo-hyun explained the reason.

“Vice president Shin Kyung-wook is already a person who attracts the public’s attention. Even a slight nod from him will cause a big ripple.”

He was the crown prince of Hansung Group and the person who successfully spun off the LCD business unit.

His words would have a much bigger impact than any other stakeholder.

Maybe he could see an article with this title without even saying a word.

That was exactly what Yoo-hyun wanted.

Park Seung-woo, who had been thinking for a while, looked at Yoo-hyun.

Would it be because the tower he had built was ruined by a random guy? There was a determination on his soft face.

“So, we can screw that bastard Lee Joon-il, right?”

“He’ll be quite flustered.”

“Then we have to do it. Let’s make his face crumple, that unlucky bastard.”

While Park Seung-woo was burning his will, Yeo Tae-sik was calm as his personality.

“Can we win if we confront him head-on?”

“Who said we’re going to confront him head-on?”

“Then?”

As Yeo Tae-sik blinked his eyes, Yoo-hyun uttered a meaningful word.

“He hit us from behind, so we have to hit him harder.”

‘See how much it hurts.’

Yoo-hyun lifted his lips as he imagined the situation that would unfold soon.

Shin Kyung-wook and Park Doo-sik came back late at night.

They could have rested for a while, but the people gathered started to discuss the countermeasures.

This time, the center was Yoo-hyun himself.

“When the articles start to appear in the media…”

It was not a one-sided information delivery time, so Yoo-hyun also listened to the questions.

“We have to keep sending signals that we’re going to acquire them, right?”

Yoo-hyun answered with the core mixed in Yeo Tae-sik’s question.

“Yes. We have to create a situation where Hansung Group has no choice but to jump in.”

“Then the acquisition price will increase a lot, right?”

“I’m going to raise it even more. So that no one can approach it. Through this…”

Yoo-hyun explained and actively used the whiteboard.

Tap tap tap.

The summary was done by Park Seung-woo, who held a laptop.

The composition of the members, the place, and the way of proceeding were similar to the initial discussion.

But there were a few differences.

First, there were room service foods on each table.

Munch munch.

Thanks to that, there was no dissatisfaction on Park Seung-woo’s face, who was putting a biscuit in his mouth.

Second, the people’s experience was different.

Park Doo-sik, who was listening to Yoo-hyun’s explanation, asked sharply.

“In the end, lowering the acquisition price is the same thing, right?”

“Yes. The method is different, but the direction is the same.”

“Then we can use what we’ve already sorted out, right?”

He had walked the path once, so his understanding was high.

“Yes. It’s the same thing, if you think about it.”

“That’s good. I think I can do this.”

Even Park Doo-sik, who was negative about the backup plan, found the answer himself.

The situation went like this, so the summary was quick.

“The potential risk factors are…”

“To prepare for that, we have to…”

Thanks to that, they were able to have a much deeper discussion.

That made the picture clearer in their heads.

They discussed until dawn, took a short nap, and gathered again.

“We’re working on Sunday. Shouldn’t we get overtime pay?”

Park Seung-woo grumbled, but it was only for a moment.

He shut his mouth when he was given a nice hotel meal.

Of course, Shin Kyung-wook also took care of some parts.

After the meal, the discussion that they couldn’t finish yesterday continued.

“After pushing out Micron, we have to…”

“Considering the situation where other companies intervene…”

Beep beep.

The process ended when Shin Kyung-wook’s cell phone rang.

Yoo-hyun asked him after he finished the call.

“Did Uri Ilbo call you?”

“Yes. They said the article editing was done in the direction we wanted.”

“When will it be published?”

“They have to match the timing when other media outlets break it. They agreed to do that.”

“That’s perfect.”

Yoo-hyun gave him a thumbs up, and Shin Kyung-wook smiled faintly.

Was it because he had sorted out some things?

There was less pressure on his face.

After spending the weekend, it was Monday morning.

Lee Joon-il, the director, sat at his desk and focused on Shin Kyung-soo’s voice from the other side of the phone.

-SG Bio has received approval from Wall Street…

“That’s good. I’ll move as soon as I get the approval to enter Korea.”

-What about the risk?

“We’ve already analyzed and dealt with it. We can proceed as planned.”

Lee Joon-il showed his confidence and ended the call.

He had one thing to worry about, but now it was time to sort it out.

The result was on the monitor as an article.

It was an article that appeared in a small newspaper, so the views were low, but it was enough to achieve the purpose.

With the vague word of a major stakeholder, it opened up some of the things that the Innovation Strategy Department had prepared in advance.

From Shinwa Semiconductor’s point of view, they had to be on guard.

‘Now they can’t even dream of an acquisition.’

Lee Joon-il lifted his lips and clicked the mouse button.

A news that came out of nowhere popped up on the screen.
