[176] Sengoku Ward
There were many companies that could replace Troy anyway.
If it didn’t work out, it was enough to put in Nuri’s employees.
Disassembling the machine was no different for Nuri’s employees.
This is because, of course, mechanical disassembly takes place when scrap metal is being made.
It was only natural that Nuri’s employees could work more safely and quickly than Troy’s.
However, the reason for not putting employees in was a kind of consideration.
bang-!
Lee Moo-yeol could not contain his anger and slammed the desk with his fist.
The Trojan side was also aroused by the shamelessness, but above all, the chief of staff ignored Kang Pil-joong and made a disparaging remark.
“I will not leave Troy alone, sir.”
“Cut down your excitement. Why is the guy who was always calm all of a sudden… … .”
“I am not in a situation where I can keep my cool right now. I made a remark that was ignoring Director Kang, not anyone else! It should never be overlooked.”
Nuri’s employees respect their superiors.
They also had a sense of pride in that no other company would have such superiors.
A superior who does not force unreasonable things and takes the lead and takes the lead.
But their superiors also respect their superiors.
And at the end of that extension line was Siwoo Lee.
“Probably, if Nuri’s employees had seen the same thing today, they would have been just as angry as I was.”
Lee Si-woo, who was watching Lee Mu-yeol get angry, sighed deeply.
“If something like this happened, you should have reported it to the vice president or me right away.”
“I’m afraid the schedule will be pushed back… I endured it as much as I could.”
“When did I ever worry about my schedule? You know I like to do things safely over things that go fast.”
“… There is no face.”
“Director Kang has been by my side the longest. No one can be rude to the director. Aren’t you upset when you see me like this?”
Pil-joong Kang, Tae-moon Park, and Moon-sik Choi were like pride for Si-woo Lee.
When there was nothing, when there was nothing to show.
Those three people were grateful people who believed in Siwoo Lee and stayed by his side.
They are the relationships my father left behind, so I valued them more.
It was not for Lee Si-woo to show this appearance.
“Do you know why I came all the way here? It’s because I don’t want people who believe in me and follow me to be ignored.”
“President… … .”
I wanted to hit him several times a day.
There were many times when I thought, ‘I want to give up now’.
But Siwoo never gave up.
He didn’t want to see people who followed and believed in him ignored by others.
“You can act boldly. Director Kang deserves it.”
“The president is more important than my pride. I don’t mind being ignored.”
Kang Pil-joong thought that if Lee Si-woo went well, that would happen.
Kang Pil-joong has always maintained his position as Nuri’s director with that heart.
“It is no longer what it used to be. It means that Director Kang does not have to go with his head down unconditionally.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
“If the other person makes a mistake, Director Kang can argue more strongly. After all, I will be responsible for it.”
Si-woo Lee, who stopped the field work, headed to the village for the next schedule.
Lee Moo-yeol, who followed the phone call to the strategic secretary’s office to instruct the termination of the contract with Troy, did not look good.
“Hide your emotions as much as possible, Chief Lee.”
“Yes, Chairman.”
Si-woo Lee arrived in the village and met Kim Moon-geun, the head of the village.
“The demolition of the incinerator has started and I am sorry for not coming often.”
“no. Director Kang Pil-joong and deputy representatives often came and listened to the villagers. You must have gone through hard times, but I didn’t know you would come back right away.”
“I can’t put off work for personal reasons. However, it seems that the number of people in the village is increasing little by little.”
The increase in the number of residents was evident.
Si-woo Lee did not know that more residents would come to the village destroyed by the incineration plant.
Still, it was decided that the population would increase as time goes on.
“I think it’s thanks to the president. Thanks to the announcement that Nuri Recycling will build an incinerator, inflows from outside are increasing.”
“Hmm, it’s not quite ready yet.”
“Hearing the words of the new residents, it seems that the president believes that he will make it a good village. They said they made the decision to move in advance before the land price rose further.”
“It’s a good thing. It’s good for the town as the population grows.”
Siwoo Lee, who was talking about this and that, checked the time.
“If you have any requests, please feel free to meet with the person in charge. We will respect the village’s position as much as possible.”
“yes. I will.”
When they visited the village once and came back to the scene, Moon Jae-shin, Jin Jun-sik, and Park Tae-moon were all dispatched.
“What kind of bastard! Who made a remark that was ignoring Director Kang?”
Moon Jae-shin, who seemed to have just arrived at the scene, burst into anger with a bloody expression on his face.
Moon Jae-shin, who learned the inside story at Lee Mu-yeol’s instructions, visited the scene without hiding his anger.
Kang Pil-joong stopped him with a bewildered expression.
“There are a lot of people watching, Vice President.”
“Is your eyes a problem now? Ignoring Director Kang is the same as ignoring Nuri. You should be angry even if you did it to other employees, but you said those things to Director Kang. This is unbearable.”
There were many stories that were twisted when the words were passed through several times.
The person who is the chief of Troy said something good and good, but by the time the news reached Moon Jae-shin, the contents had changed a little.
In particular, the manager ignored Kang Pil-joong and did not say anything demeaning.
It just seemed that way.
“Calm down.”
Lee Si-woo, who had just returned to the scene, approached Moon Jae-shin and said,
“President.”
“It is true that the chief of Troy was wrong, but it was not a remark that looked down on Director Kang and looked down on him.”
“… … .”
“I was angry because of the negligent response of the Trojan side.”
Moon Jae-shin let out a deep sigh at Lee Si-woo’s calmly telling the truth.
“Of course, it was a bit intimidating, but that part deserves a proper apology.”
“… I was so excited.”
“I don’t know how team leader Lee Moo-yeol delivered this, but he’s not such a gentle person that Director Kang was ignored.”
It was necessary to save Kang Pil-jung’s status.
If it was said that he was ignored by someone from another company, it might harden into a weak-looking image among the employees.
“Yes. I admit that Director Kang is not one to be ignored.”
“Do you think it would be good to find another company? Or do you think it’s better to put in Nuri’s staff?”
“Since things have gone awry, I think the same thing will happen over and over again if we entrust it to another company. In that case, I think it would be better to show that Nuri handles it on its own.”
“Assemble a team to hunt down the incinerator site.”
“Yes, Chairman.”
Troy’s job was to tie the knot without noise.
There was no time to worry about Troy now.
It is in a position to disassemble the machine in a hurry and take it outside.
“Is CEO Lee Min-koo here?”
“yes. We are inspecting the site now.”
“I will go there. The vice-president will also follow. And I think it would be good for Director Park to join Director Kang.”
“I will.”
If Nuri had to deal with it on its own without looking for other companies, the site could be reopened by tomorrow.
“And the vice-president, prepare to expand the workforce. I think it would be good to select as many field positions as possible.”
“I will prepare.”
He gave instructions and moved to the site where Lee Min-gu was located.
Si-woo Lee and Jae-shin Moon accompanied him to the place where the trees were being taken out.
“This representative.”
“Are you here, Chairman?”
“How are things going?”
“We are almost done with the removal of the polluted trees. Perhaps the trees to be planted here will be brought in within this week.”
“It’s fast.”
“The disassembly of the machine was entrusted to a subcontractor, but in the case of the tree, there was no problem because the employees of Nuri Landscaping were moving it themselves.”
“Did you hear me?”
“yes. I heard it as soon as it arrived.”
“Then you must have figured out how to proceed.”
“There will never be any subcontracting.”
“As much as possible, Nuri should handle everything on its own. That’s how you gain experience.”
“I agree with the president’s words.”
Even if it was difficult, if Nuri could move on its own, experience points would have been accumulated.
Si-woo Lee returned to the office after checking all the trees being taken out.
“The establishment of a transportation company is going well, isn’t it?”
“It is running without any problems. If the permission of Yongin City is granted, we will proceed immediately.”
“The mayor of Yongin is scheduled to meet tomorrow, so let’s talk about permission for transportation companies.”
While we were discussing various issues about the incinerator, I got a call from Lee Moo-yeol.
The news is that Sanpo has decided to take over Cheil.
“Chairman Cha Woon said he would take over Jeil with 70 billion won.”
“Have you already made a decision? I thought they would negotiate, at least formally… … .”
“I think we need to find out more.”
It was a strange thing.
Of course, the fact that Sanpo spent 70 billion won on acquiring Jeil was not a company that would be shaken.
However, Siwoo Lee himself made the offer and thought it was too much.
But does the other party convey the intention to take over without asking or questioning?
‘I thought it would be difficult without someone’s involvement… for a moment. Someone’s involvement?’
Park Soo-beom clearly said so.
Sanpo would not be able to reject Nouri’s proposal.
that he would do it himself.
“President Su-beom Park helped me.”
“Maybe.”
“There is no need to know. Because we pass the best at a good price. To be honest, it’s a company that doesn’t help us at all, right?”
“It is. It’s because Nuri and Cheil’s tendencies don’t match.”
“Please tell Eunsoo Jin to prepare the takeover as it is. Today’s schedule ends here. Today, we will visit Gangdong.”
You can’t just take care of Nuri.
Of course, there is Jae-Jun Won in Gang-Dong, but it is Si-Woo Lee’s job to check the situation every now and then.
Lee Moo-yeol nodded his head.
“I’m leaving here. There is no meeting today. I’ll do it tomorrow morning, so you can go to work.”
* * *
When we arrived in Gangdong, the parking lot was filled with radio trucks loaded with goods to be delivered by the company.
As Siwoo Lee became chairman, the unit price of Gangdong changed.
The unit price, which was usually 20 to 10 won higher than that of Daehan Steel, has been raised sharply.
Instead, if the goods are not good, we used the method of sending them out immediately.
Its purpose was to improve the quality of steel and survive competition from other steel mills.
It was no longer competing with the local junk dealer.
It is a situation where each of them has to face and compete with great companies.
In the end, he had to figure out the best way to survive.
Siwoo Lee met Jaejoon Won as soon as he entered Gangdong.
“Vice President, Daehan Steel is protesting?”
Protests against the unit price increase continued to come in.
In fact, the companies leading the Korean steel industry were divided between the princes and the Daehans.
No matter how large a steel mill is, it is impossible not to keep an eye on the two companies.
“yes. They say lower the price.”
“By what authority?”
“Chairman, I don’t know if you know, but the unit prices of steel mills are almost the same. It may be slightly higher depending on the shipping cost, but we try to match the unit price as much as possible.”
“I know that. Because you can’t be unaware that it’s like collusion.”
“The unit price of domestic steel is strongly influenced by princes and Daehan.”
“By the way, we are on the ironworks side, so why is Daehan pressured? Have you already received permission from the Iron Works?”
“Daehan seems to be worried about setting the unit price of steel mills due to overheating of competition. We keep getting requests not to go too high.”
“… For now, freeze the unit price. Next week or so, we will cut the price by only 10 won.”
