＜ Buying my rice bowl ＞
Presentations by tutors continued.
However, Sim’s reaction was unsatisfactory.
That would be the case, and President Shim would have always only received reports coming up through the approval line.
Then, I saw the assignments of youngsters who were not as good as new employees.
“Haam.”
President Shim yawned blatantly.
Boredom, boredom, and irritation were openly expressed.From noble mtl dot com
Naturally, the tutors were greatly intimidated.
Unable to see, I quietly helped.
“Sir, please lower your expectations.”
“I wonder if there are any lower expectations here.”
Every time that happened, the tutors shrugged their shoulders.
“Please look at it in moderation. Anyway, you did your best to do your homework.”
“Is it important that you did your best at work? The word best should be attached to the result, not the process.”
“That’s right. But everyone has a first time.”
Even if they are competent elites who later become presidents of affiliates, they are just college students who have not even received training for new employees.
“This is not a company, and the teachers are not new employees.”
“So you should be happy. If this was a company, it would have started with the executives and continued down the line.”
The atmosphere was noticeably subdued by President Shim’s harsh evaluation.From noble mtl dot com
Naturally, the pressure on the next presenter would be great.
“I am Seonwoo Ha, a senior in Business Administration at Hankuk University. I was given an assignment to draw a graph of stock fluctuations of Wookwang’s 41 affiliates based on stock price data for the past three years.”
“Get started.”
This time, President Shim replied in a nonchalant way.
However, when he saw the graph Ha Seon-woo had drawn, his eyes changed.
“You’ve been drawing quarterly graphs. Not only did each affiliate draw it, but similar affiliates were grouped together to create graphs with different colors, and only Woogwang’s core affiliates were selected separately.”
For the first time, President Shim showed interest.
Then the other private tutors sent their surprised eyes at once.
“Have you organized any materials separately?”
“yes. This is a table of the same data.”
“good.”
Sim smiled in satisfaction.
Review the Whiririk stock exchange table.From noble mtl dot com
Next to the table, small fluctuations compared to the previous quarter and year to year are recorded, as well as organized using red and blue.
It was written to make it easy to see at a glance.
“Is it the right way?”
what is that word
Ha Seon-woo was delighted.
I was given envious glances.
“What is your name?”
“I am Ha Seon-woo, a senior in Business Administration at Hankuk University.”
“Ha Seon-woo. I will remember it.”
I looked at Team Leader Yu.
Then Yoo Jong-tae, a quick-witted bodyguard who claims to be my limbs, quickly brought a sketchbook. It was a table with names on the horizontal lines and dates on the vertical lines.
“Bocchan, I prepared three types of dojang.”
It was a stamp with letters and pictures that said, “You’re the best!”, “You did a great job!”
In the column of Mr. Ha, who has drawn a graph of stock fluctuations of 41 affiliates, I said, ‘This is the best!’ took a picture
“A stamp of praise? Are the teachers receiving it, not the young master?”
“Once you have completed the task, you need to evaluate it. Depending on the stamp of praise, the performance bonus to be paid next month will be different.”
All of the tutors opened their mouths.
“Isn’t it nice to receive a bonus for this task?”
“her······!”
“By the way, this stamp of praise will be closed every quarter, and I will send it to President Sim, who is sitting here.”
I grinned.
“It will serve as a reference during job interviews.”
“great. For reference, this is my style favoring talented employees. I love pushing, attracting, and nurturing promising talent.”
At those words, the eyes of the tutors suddenly changed.
I look at the praise stamp and the judge alternately with hot eyes.
‘Happiness is not in order of grades, but salary is in order of grades.’
They knew the principles of competition well.
So, after fierce competition, he must have passed from a low-level employee to the position of president of an affiliate.
* * *
After sending out the tutors.
I had a private meeting with President Shim.
“Bocchan, to be honest, I was a bit surprised.”
“Do you have enough buds?”
“Yes, you picked well. In particular, the friend who announced the graph of Wookwang affiliates.”
Ha Seon-woo seemed to have properly applied the snow stamp.
“It’s normal for everyone to be stubborn, but he shows unrivaled skills like a military school alone. So I ask.”
Sim smiled meaningfully.
“Why do you take care of him alone, Bocchan? It’s because I don’t understand.”
“Did you notice?”
“Even our assistant manager at Taesung Chemical cannot post such a report in a few days. However, it is not something that a team leader or a manager-level person among close acquaintances can do for you.”
The reason why President Shim smiled was obvious.
“What kind of team leader or manager-level person takes care of chores with so much time and effort? There must be a mountain of work to do at the company.”
President Shim tapped the desk in front of me with his fingertips.
“So, naturally, I have no choice but to turn my eyes to who the person closest to him is, who is very capable and has time to spare. why did you help? There must be a reason, isn’t it?”
Instead of retorting, I nodded.
“Because the original arm is the way to bend inward.”
“hmm?”
“While everyone was struggling to do their homework, the only person who secretly came to me was that teacher.”
“hmm?”
“They swore an oath of allegiance to ride my line. He asked me to raise him please?”
“You come to tutor and take an oath of allegiance? Ask an eight-year-old private tutor to raise him… Heh, heh heh heh.”
Chief Sim let out a laugh.
Either that or not.
“Can I treat a person who volunteers for my limbs the same as others? I need to take care of one more.”
“So how did you take care of it?”
“I gave one piece of advice to one genealogy.”
“pedigree?”
I pulled out a piece of paper tied with twine from my desk drawer.
“These are the stock fluctuation tables and graphs of Taesung Chemical and Taesang Construction.”
“I gave it to you for reference.”
There’s no need to look so hard.
It’s because it’s similar to what was announced earlier.
I’m organizing the really important information in a separate ledger, so it’s just a diagram that I’ll look into as a reference material from time to time, so there’s not much to pick up.
“Did you write this yourself? But why are there only these two companies?”
“It was a company that was said to belong to my father.”
President Shim looked down at me with admirable eyes.
“Then what is that advice?”
“Nothing. I just let them know that there is no way to do company work alone.”
I put a bundle of contracts with my tutors on my desk.
“The tutoring fees were paid in advance, and the manager’s salary was also paid at once. He secretly tipped me to use that money to buy other people’s time and effort.”
“her······!”
“Honestly, this is something I cannot do alone. There was just too much work to do in time.”
“Even though you know that, why would you…”
President Sim, who was reading the contract, looked back at me with startled eyes.
“Did you expect him to be obsessed with you and deliberately gave you a heavy task?”
“Among the tutors, he seems to be the type who is quick to judge the situation and is good at using his hair.”
I met all kinds of guys while rolling through the back alleys.
Among them, there is a type with ambitious eyes and fast-moving hair, but they usually have good tact and do not choose means and methods to achieve their goals somehow.
I guess he’s the type to achieve his goal by going back and forth between legal, expedient and illegal.
Such talent is rare.
“When I realized that I could never do it alone in time, I wondered how I was going to solve it.
“Though that is the criterion that separates incompetent from competent, ordinary from extraordinary.”
“So that’s a hint. If you are a senior at Korea University, how many juniors will you mobilize, and how many personal connections will you ask for? It was something that could be done if we bought it in moderation and shared the chores.”
There must have been quite a few people willing to help if I bought a big drink.
“So, the first thing you taught me now while you were taking your limbs was to bribe people and steal their results?”
“No.”
I waved my index finger from side to side.
“You have to speak straight. Buying is correct, but the performance was not stolen. To put it bluntly, they aren’t Taesung’s employees, and they aren’t assigned the same assignment, are they?”
“Hmm, so does he.”
“You said earlier. The word “best” for company work should be attached to the result, not the process. Isn’t this illegal?”
“…”
“It should be seen as a bit of tricks and tips. You are good because you drink and I am good because you have less work, forming a win-win relationship.”
“…”
“When everyone’s pockets are light, if you open your pockets and buy people’s hearts, that’s all good feelings and networking. Isn’t that something we should rather encourage?”
“······Yes.”
“If you are a graduate of Korea University, you must be an elite who will go out into society and find a good position. Living in this country, is there any reason not to take advantage of the school ties, regional ties, and blood ties that you are so good at?”
“・・・・・No.”
Sim looked at me with a strange expression.
“If Taeseong expresses his intention to join the company because he is interested in it, it is a good thing to welcome him with both hands. I tend to be a bit greedy for talent.”
Unlike the 21st century, Korea at this time was in the midst of rapid growth.
When national wealth expands and companies grow in size.
Since the stomach was not blocked, success and promotion were carried out at a high speed.
It is an era when the elite status of society was guaranteed only by academic background.
“A company is, after all, a job done by people, and one competent employee is better than ten incompetent employees to grow a company.”
“you’re right. In fact, just because you are good at school doesn’t mean that you are good at company work. You have to have a head.”
“On top of that, you have to be smart, and you don’t have to choose any means or methods to achieve your goals, and you can devote yourself to work in order to get in the eyes of your superiors. I need a lot of henchmen like that.”
Even if chores can be left to the corporate system, executives should not be immersed in the system.
‘What I want to raise is an executive who can present Taesung’s future, not an employee who takes care of chores.’
When the soldiers row hard, the boat moves forward.
However, if the captain and helmsman carelessly touch the rudder, the ship will head in the wrong direction.
“Bocchan, I can’t help but ask.”
Sim asked seriously.
“No matter how capable they may be, do you waste your time painstakingly raising unpolished fledglings? It would be enough if I told the shooters to raise him after joining Taesung.”
Shim’s voice was filled with sadness and regret.
“Did you mention the line earlier? The guys who are trying to catch the line of Taesung Group’s direct descendant are far and wide. Even if you stay still, talented people who swear loyalty to you and volunteer to become your servants will gather like clouds.”
“that’s right. Under normal circumstances, I wouldn’t have to go through all this trouble.”
“Then, does that mean that your current situation is not normal?”
“yes.”
I nodded.
“When I was negotiating with my grandfather, Mr. Sim was also there, right?”
“yes.”
“I came to the conclusion that I would accept several affiliates of Woogwang. Do you remember exactly what Grandpa was supposed to hand over to me?”
“It was a stake in the affiliate to be acquired.”
“Then what about management rights?”
“······hmm?”
“My grandfather decided to hand over the shares to me, but he never said a word about handing over management rights to affiliates.”
Sim’s eyes widened greatly.
“Do you even remember what I asked my grandfather for?”
“Um, I decided to convince the executives of Taesung Group about taking shares in Woo-gwang’s affiliates, Bocchan.”
“Did Grandpa ever say anything about it during the executive meeting?”
“…”
never took it out
“Instead of declaring my rights in front of Taesung Group executives, my grandfather just asked me about my impressions of the executive meeting tour.”
“Mmm.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“It means that we can give away the stake, but we have no intention of giving away management rights.”
“Why do you think it is?”
I poked my chest with my index finger.
“Because I am only eight years old.”
Sim didn’t respond.
“I will admit that I am the largest shareholder, so please take care of the dividends. Since you have no thoughts or regrets to put forward on the front line of management, learn management from President Sim steadily. You mean that?”
Sim kept his mouth shut.
“I have to take care of my share. I don’t want to lose my rice bowl by sucking my fingers. So I had no choice but to do this.”
Finally, President Shim opened his mouth with a moan.
“What do you plan to do?”
