Became a Tycoon in a Night Game - Became a Tycoon in a Night Game chapter 68
68 – 68. Tablet Sales (6)
President Seo Tae-han was quietly reading the report.
This was the general information about Seohwa Electronics’ tablet and capler tab, including its financial resources, performance, strengths, etc.
Seohwa Electronics Capler Tap.
It didn’t feel like it was a little late.
Although other large companies were busy making and selling tablets, Seohwa Electronics chose phones as its main business and did not necessarily enter the tablet market.
There were no advantages to entering a new market, from expanding the production line to competition between other companies, excessive promotional costs, and securing additional manpower.
At that time, his father, Chairman Seo Chang-soo, said something.
– So, taking everything into account, what kind of business would you do?
Seo Tae-han was different from Seo Chang-su from his birth.
Seo Chang-soo is a giant who created the barren Republic of Korea, while Seo Tae-han is a criminal who inherited the business with the goal of protecting the empire created by the giant.
So, his understanding and approach to the new business was clearly different from Chairman Seo Chang-soo.
While Seo Chang-soo was a person who started right away, Seo Tae-han was a person who carefully considered the front, back, and both sides before jumping into the business.
As a result, there were no failures.
Although there were no new challenges, there was recognition for stable management performance.
However, that was not what Chairman Seo Chang-soo wanted.
– Look. Eldest son. Can’t you see how fast the world is spinning? Then you get eaten by other guys?
In fact, Seo Tae-han did not know that.
He knew more about the rapidly changing times, but he was no less ignorant than Chairman Seo Chang-soo.
But I was afraid.
I did not want to bring down Korea’s leading conglomerate, founded by a giant, through a vain attempt.
Who doesn’t know?
Who doesn’t want to do it?
Who doesn’t want to join the new era?
However, I was so afraid of failure that I could not easily move forward even when an opportunity presented itself.
“But.. Woojin..”
Young.
He probably said that when he was young.
He would have spoken in front of his grandfather as if he was being spoiled.
Without that, there was no way we could have declared that we would increase sales of CaplerTap tenfold, which was lagging behind other companies.
Otherwise.
Unless it’s really…
Seo Tae-han recalled the time he had a conversation with Chairman Seo Chang-soo some time ago.
– I am a horse. I just wanted to find the next step in calligraphy and painting.
It wasn’t a hurtful comment.
I am already quite old to be hurt.
But I was curious.
– Father. What do you mean by that?
– The eldest son. What do you think you left behind as the leader of calligraphy and painting?
My mouth was blocked.
I am working hard at something.
We are trying to manage and control everything and move forward.
But what did you leave behind?
I.
What was left behind?
Seo Tae-han, who had become mute, looked at his old father with blank eyes.
– Eldest son. You are. He is truly an outstanding son in everything. I didn’t give you to lead calligraphy and painting just because you are the eldest son. I gave you the lead in calligraphy and painting because you are better than my other younger siblings. It’s true that I prefer the eldest son, but that didn’t mean I had any intention of handing over the steering wheel to a captain who was sure to sink the ship.
Seo Tae-han pursed her lips.
It’s definitely a compliment.
I have never heard Chairman Seo Chang-soo praise someone to the extent of saying something like that.
However, Seo Tae-han did not say thank you because he expected what would come next.
And as expected, Chairman Seo Chang-soo started talking about Seo Tae-han’s shortcomings.
– But that’s all. It’s outstanding. Because they are so good, there is a tendency to look at the market too cautiously. Eldest son. The market is so simple. If there is someone to buy it, you can get it somehow and give it to the person who will buy it, whether you make it, buy it, or steal it. But you analyze, observe, and worry too much about the process. That is not a managerial virtue. It is necessary, but if you let it encroach on you, you will make the mistake of not being able to move forward on the path you should pursue.
I know.
I know it very well.
But
– Eldest son. Don’t feel bad that I evaluated you that way. Everyone has their own standards. You are doing well according to your standards. That is why Seohwa Group is growing steadily. But that shouldn’t be the case. You cannot grow steadily; you must grow explosively. That’s how you survive in this world.
Seo Tae-han silently listened to Chairman Seo Chang-soo’s words.
That is correct.
You never know when a new company may come forward and take Seohwa’s place.
In fact, in this era of rapid change, many new companies have risen to the ranks of large corporations, created new markets, and are competing fiercely to survive there.
The world changes,
People also change,
Companies also change.
This is a very natural story.
But Seo Tae-han was afraid.
I did not want to leave behind a case of entering a new market and failing.
That may be why we entered the tablet market late after weighing everything that could be considered.
So what is the result of Capler Tap?
It has become a useless product.
Since the investment related to product production has already been completed, it will take quite some time to recover the investment.
However, there were no immediate visible results.
The products dominating the existing market were constantly achieving research, development, and innovation, so no matter how much we followed, there was no one in sight.
No.
This is not the time to see first place.
He was struggling behind the scenes right now.
Chairman Seo Chang-soo looked out his window and muttered as if he was talking to himself.
– You are right to do so. But next time for you, next time for Seo-hwa, never hand over your management philosophy. In a new era, new people are needed.
“I know. Father..”
After reminiscing, President Seo Tae-han muttered to himself as he put down the report he had not even read properly.
He didn’t think he was wrong.
He didn’t even think that the opposite was true.
Just in the middle.
My management ended there.
A manager who lost nothing and left nothing behind.
So, I didn’t know that President Seo Tae-han also had special expectations for his children.
“Woojin.. Was okay so far, but..”
Recently, completely unexpected things have been happening.
So I became interested.
About whether to try something new.
However, this time he made an excessive statement.
I’m going to increase Capler Tab’s sales rate tenfold.
Capler Tap spent a lot of money on promotion and marketing, but ultimately came to a standstill.

No matter how much Seo Woo-jin was the successor to Seohwa Group’s name, there was no way he could increase the sales of a product that had become outdated.
Rather, it feels like the good scores I gave so far have been reduced.
The way he moved without having an answer was like a child running wild and immature.
“Did I give you too generous a score?”
Knock knock.
At that moment, there was a knocking sound in the office.
Soon the secretary’s urgent voice was heard.
“Boss. “Director Kang Min-han wants to see me urgently.”
What’s going on? Hurry?
“Come in.”
Manager Kang Min-han comes in quickly as soon as the door opens.
Unlike usual, I felt like I had a lot to say in my mouth.
“What’s going on?”
“Seo, Director Seo!”
“Huh? “Why Woojin?”
“Oh, you had an accident!”
“…Accident?”
What do you mean this guy did?
But that wasn’t the meaning of the accident.
Director Kang Min-han’s report to follow soon.
The news was that Capler Tap was being talked about hotly on the Internet and SNS due to a real-time interview on YouTube.
“But that’s not all. In fact, inquiries about Capler Tabs are flooding into each branch, and the number of Capler Tabs purchased at online stores is rapidly increasing!”
“What?”
President Seo Tae-han jumped up from his seat.
What were you thinking until now?
Just because Seo Woo Jin said something ridiculous to his father, does that mean he said something that was actually feasible?
No, but wait a minute.
A real-time interview?
“Director Kang. By the way, Woojin was interviewed on YouTube? “Not a media company?”
We have already received a report from the public relations office.
There is a report I received that summarizes all the places where interview requests were received.
The channel that runs the YouTube view…
Oh?
I was at the very back.
Anyway, really?
Director Kang Min-han spoke in a very embarrassed voice.
“I haven’t met Director Seo yet, so I haven’t been able to properly understand the facts, but the interview that Director Seo chose was for a YouTube channel!”
“Where did you do it? “What channel is it?”
Director Kang Min-Han opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment as if he was embarrassed, and then spoke.
“Uh, um. It’s a channel called ‘Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go.’”
What’s the name of the channel?
Hold on.
That channel?
I remembered.
I think it was the last channel in the public relations office report…
Why an interview on such an insignificant channel?
“The public relations office said that it was the only channel that conducted interviews in real time. They say it doesn’t always happen in real time, but it does happen sometimes. “It appears that Director Seo Woo-jin was interviewed in real time…”
“Ha.. hahahaha..”
President Seo Tae-han burst out laughing.
What I said to Woojin on the car ride yesterday.
‘You’ve already made me wait a long time.’ The words were almost meaningless.
# # #
Ah.
My throat hurts from talking too much.
Kim In-su I think he talked 5 times more than me.
Is this how the neck remains?
It seems like not everyone can be a YouTuber.
“Thank you for your hard work. “Director.”
Secretary Kim Chae-yoon said as he put down the tea.
As expected, Kim Chae-yoon.
You are the only one who thinks about my neck.
Could you please also consider my burning heart?
“And now Assistant Manager Dong-su Han and Geun-woo Park are in front of us.”
Oh? Were those guys assistant managers?
But why did you suddenly come?
“Hmm? “I ask you to come in.”
“Yes!”
Secretary Kim Chae-yoon somehow answers more cheerfully than before.
Did I do something good?
Soon Dong-su and Geun-woo entered the office.
“What’s going on? “They come in droves.”
Geunwoo said with a grin.
“I have somewhere to go.”
“Where?”
Then, my sister-in-law pounded her chest and said,
“Where? “Here.”
..Just now, the black guy was pounding his chest and told you to come here, right?
Just as I was about to swear with my eyes, Geun-woo opened his mouth.
“Get up quickly. “If you want to go to the gym, you have to leave now.”
..,Huh? Gym? Now?? It’s work time???
