[177] Spring has come, but 1
“You follow your uncle more than I do; go to him. I’ll make you a seat.”
“Wait a minute. Now that’s…”
CEO Yang Woo-chan hurriedly opened his mouth, but I raised my hand to cover his mouth.
“Do you feel it now? Who is in charge of personnel appointments?”
The two averted my gaze, unable to meet my glaring eyes.
“I warn you. From the moment you leave this room, forget everything that happened at Sunyang Group. Looking back on life and recalling memories, you should do it only with your head and not with your mouth. If I see even one line in print, I will comb through your past.”
If you have risen to the position of president of an affiliate of the Sunyang Group, your whole body is covered in dust. In severe cases, a lot of mud comes out.
If you don’t watch your mouth, you know very well that it’s only a matter of time before you become the target of an investigation, and you may end up as a suspect.
If it’s the power of the Sunyang Group, isn’t it a piece of cake to mobilize a few prosecutors? When a prosecutor starts to rob someone, there’s no doubt that he doesn’t know that his later years are twisted.
The complexion of the three turned to an earthy color.
Only Yun Ho-il, president of Sunyang Fire & Marine Insurance, was stiff and stiff from tension.
“Hey, three bosses. We will erase the last traces of the Sunyang Group. Take out your phone.”
They paused for a moment and let out a long sigh.
The moment you are promoted to executive, you are handed out a mobile phone. It is given for business use, but most of them do not distinguish between construction and private calls.
However, the fact that it is a company fixture does not change.
The three of them took out their phones and set them down on the table.
“Don’t worry too much. I have no intention of prying into the contents of private calls. I intend to check only the official business sector and discard the phone.”
Managing Director Jang Do-hyung took his cell phone with a firm expression.
“You may have a lot to say, but save a little. I’m sorry, but I’m not in the mood to listen to a single word.”
Taking my words as a signal, Executive Director Jang Do-hyung opened his mouth.
“The audit team is taking care of the items in each president’s office. We will check each one and send personal items to your home. And a car is waiting in front of the main building entrance. The bosses will take you where you want. then.”
Executive Director Jang Do-hyeong mechanically finished talking and opened the door.
It was clearly meant to leave.
The three of them gritted their teeth and stood up. The eyes glaring at me were unusual, but I spared my words.
I’m not stupid enough to part ways and curse, and I’m not an amateur. Even if we part like this today, we don’t know when we will have to smile and shake hands again.
They can’t live like unemployed people like this. There must be a place that invites them, and they may sit in the position of advisor, outside director, and auditor. The place that hires them wants to build a relationship with the Sunyang Group, and they have to smile and shake hands to get what they want.
He has no intention of shaking hands with me, but it is clear that he has no intention of arguing.
When the three of them left, Executive Director Jang closed the door and sat quietly on one side of the sofa.
“President Yun Ho-il of Sunyang Fire & Marine Insurance.”
“yes.”
Only then did President Yoon raise his head and start looking into my eyes.
“Sunyang Fire & Marine Insurance is an unlisted company, and 75% of the shares are held by Sunyang Life Insurance.”
“yes. I am well aware of it.”
“I wonder what the president thinks. Do you intend to do the same with the three people who just left, or will you take charge of Sunyang Life Insurance, the parent company of Sunyang Fire & Marine Insurance, and demonstrate your abilities to the fullest?”
It will be difficult. I want to jump out of there because I like it, but when I think of my friendships with people who just left this room, I feel like a traitor.
At times like these, I need to give myself a reason to nod my head.
“please. As you may have already noticed, it is time for a generational shift. The core of Sunyang Financial Group is not Sunyang Life Insurance, no matter what anyone says. There is no one who deserves it except President Yoon.”
I even heard the words of a request, and this should be enough.
President Yun Ho-il nodded his head with an expression like a patriot who made a decision to save the country.
“First, I should say thank you. thank you We will do our best not to disappoint you in the future.”
“Thank you for your willingness to agree. Yoon Ho-il, president of Sunyang Life Insurance.”
Executive Director Jang Do-hyung opened his mouth with a hearty smile.
“Now let’s go to the conference room. All of the finance executives are waiting.”
“yes. Mr. Yoon. Let’s go together. I will present it to the executives.”
The three of us laughed and headed to the conference room.
When I opened the door wide and entered, dozens of people jumped to their feet.
I was a little nervous, but I straightened my shoulders and headed for the seat of honor with the utmost confidence.
As Jang Do-hyung and President Yoon settled down to the left and right, everyone’s eyes turned to us.
“hello? This is Jin Do-jun.”
He pulled the microphone in front of me closer and greeted me for the first time.
The executives lightly bowed their heads. I saw a nervous expression, a sullen expression, and a guy with a snout.
“A little while ago, the three CEOs left Sunyang.”
Even if you don’t say who those three are, everyone will know. Because there is President Yoon next to me.
In an instant, the meeting hall was in a state of turmoil.
This hum could be someone’s anger, someone’s expectation of the environment that will change, and someone’s concern.
The chatter disappeared when I opened my mouth again.
“If you are dissatisfied with the first greeting, you can leave the company at any time. However, if you are determined to stay with the company, keep this one thing in mind.”
Looking around the crowd again, I could feel their nervousness.
“If you hear childlike grumbling about what lies ahead, you will have to pay a grim price. Aren’t you an executive? You must feel that you are part of the management team. because? This is because I will not be involved in the former management and will not hold any position in Sunyang Financial Group.”
Of course, no one seemed to believe this.
Whose bloodline is there? They all look like this.
“Today will be the first and the last time that executives are gathered in one place. The reason why it is necessary only once is to tell you the principle of personnel management.”
Executives are also salaried workers, so they all pay attention to personnel principles.
“There will be no paratroopers to worry about. And internal promotion will be the basis. Today, CEO Yun Ho-il became the CEO of Sunyang Life Insurance. There are still vacant CEO positions in the three companies. The representative director there will be an executive who is currently in the position of deputy.”
The meaning of this word is to carry out a large-scale promotion.
As everyone climbed the stairs one step at a time, the air in the conference room became warm in an instant.
“In addition, we will establish a new strategy office for general management of Sunyang Financial Group, and Executive Director Jang Do-hyeong will be in charge. My rank is Vice President.”
When I made eye contact with Executive Director Jang Do-hyung, I lightly lowered my head.
“The new CEO and Vice President Jang Do-hyeong and lastly, I hope the executives lead the company well. All you have to do is get a quarterly performance report. It’s just…”
He paused for a while, leaving a decisive word behind. It was to the point where I could feel the ears of the executives being focused.
“I will always change positions and titles based on quarterly performance. I will follow the pragmatism to the point of being ruthless, so please be prepared.”
More to the point, it’s just a bunch of stuff. Now all that remains is to show it in action.
I left the conference room first with Vice President Jang Do-hyung. I went back to my room and had a cup of coffee to relax.
“Please take good care of the aftermath.”
“yes. I will issue personnel appointments by the end of today.”
“And as I said with the secretaries of the two vice presidents, you need to coordinate the sale of the credit card company.”
Vice President Jang Do-hyung sighed.
“Did you really negotiate with bonds? Aren’t the terms too generous?”
“Otherwise, there is no competition. In the heavy industry sector, we cannot afford to raise 1 trillion won right now.”
“All right. It was the last complaint. Judging from what you did with bonds, you seem to be thinking in the direction of Vice President Vibrator, is that correct?”
One becomes a grenade, the other a nuclear bomb. Wouldn’t a nuclear bomb be better? It’s a war where only one will survive anyway.
“That’s right. If only… Haha.”
I evaded it with a smile and brought up another story.
“As soon as the first quarter is over, we will clean up 10 low-performing executives. Our vice president… Get some blood on your hands.”
“Are there 10 people?”
As soon as spring comes, the bloody wind blows. Knowing that the shock was not small, Jang Do-hyung’s expression was not good.
“Would you be intimidated by one or two people? All employees have to go into shock to be bloody worthwhile. Instead, give the top 10 top performing teams a heap of bonuses. On one side, the knife wind, on the other side, the spring breeze. Everyone will feel that the company has changed.”
“yes. We’ll pay bonuses enough to offset the shock of 10 executives flying away. Are you okay?”
He understands the language quickly and doesn’t show stubbornness. This is like the advantage of Jang Do-hyung.
“it’s okay. You can do that on your own in the future. Don’t try to get permission one by one.”
“Give me discretion and I won’t give it back. Hehe.”
In the meantime, even a joke. Are you good at guts? Or is it heaven?
“Don’t be surprised if I give you more discretion in the future.”
“I look forward to it. Hehe.”
“Then I will go. I will stop wasting time holding on to people who have a lot to do.”
“Are you going to Yeouido?”
“no. I have to go to school for a while. I got a call saying I didn’t do my graduation photo shoot alone.”
“graduate? Oh, next week?”
Jang Do-hyung’s expression changed strangely.
“yes. Why?”
“I forgot… I was a college student. Seeing what you were saying in the conference room today, I was mistaken as if you had several years of social life.”
This man has been doing this for over ten years. The difference is that it is not a place to speak, but a place to listen.
“Anyway, congratulations. Shall we bring a bouquet of flowers to the graduation ceremony?”
He waved his hand at the sound of a bouquet of flowers.
“Oh, even if you don’t, I’ll turn around. There is no problem with my parents, but my grandfather is coming. Just imagine.”
“Ah… really… that must be a burden.”
Jang Do-hyung changed his expression to a pitiful expression as if he fully understood.
It’s really insanely burdensome.
* * *
“Is it worth it? Hasn’t it already been over two weeks?”
“Look at my face. Doesn’t it look like the ball was eaten with a spoon?”
It’s a bit of an exaggeration, but within 20 days, my eyes went wide open.
After Seo Min-young entered the Judicial Research and Training Institute on February 1st, she did not send a single text message. I knew it would be hectic, but I had no idea that I would be having such a harsh time that my face would be damaged.
“Can you send me some wild ginseng roots?”
“It’s like being in prison, but can you turn it into wild ginseng? Come visit often.”
“okay. I’ll try.”
“I heard you were in charge of Sunyang Group’s financial affiliates? Rumors spread.”
“What are you entrusted with learning what to do there? I too am now in trouble. It is our family tradition to go into exile to Geoje Island if we cannot work.”
“Just go! I’ll drag you by the hair and confine you to an officetel!”
At this time, the entrance to the auditorium of the law school was noisy. I could see men in black suits rushing in and securing the aisle.

My unusual grandfather…
