Episode 65: The important thing is momentum

As you go through life at work, you inevitably have to be mindful of your boss’s feelings.

Because my day is often influenced by that person’s mood.

Office of the Chairman of the Gyeomyeong Group.

It goes without saying that the secretaries who most closely accompanied Kim Si-on were also there.

As the company grew larger, the atmosphere became more and more strict, and employees had to watch the mood of their immediate superior, the chairman.

“Chairman. Don’t you think the atmosphere has changed a bit?”

Because they were secretaries, they were able to notice it faster than anyone else.

“Yes. Did the look in your eyes… change?”

“By the way, does anyone know what time you get off work these days?”

“That’s right. I’ve never seen you leave work after working overtime.”

Their gaze is directed to the heavily closed chairman’s office.

Flap- Flap- Flap-

The secretaries wondered what the scenery inside was like, but in fact, the scenery there was always the same.

Kim Si-on, wearing glasses, furrows his brow and reads and rereads the mountain of documents he has piled up.

His eyes, looking at the documents, flashed like a swordsman about to cut off his enemy’s neck with a single stroke.

A new video has been uploaded to .

This time too, the response from YouTube viewers was enthusiastic.

– What is this channel that features so many celebrities?

↳ This is designer Lee Yong-won’s father’s channel.

↳ Lee Yong-won? Who is he? Is he famous?

↳ It’s quite famous these days.

– Hey, Father. You were like that last time too, but you’re actually pretty good at it. You naturally lead deep conversations.

↳ I was looking at the comments to write this and it looks like someone wrote it. The ability to naturally lead the mood without any forced actions is true pure talent.

– Cheer up, Chairman!

– I never thought I would cheer for the CEO of a large corporation like this in my life.

– The narrative was crazy today.

– Wait. But aren’t the clothes pretty?

– The way the chairman is acting cute is so cute!

– The chairman and fashion. I was drawn here by these two things and got sucked into the drama of these two people… … .

↳ Seriously, this is an unscripted drama.

– Honestly, Chairman Kim Si-on was really cool today. It felt like a coming-of-age story straight out of a boys’ comic.

↳ Is this the part where you can buy shares of the Gyeomyeong Group?

– ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I was watching it seriously and then I burst out laughing at the end. How cute are the three guys shaking and doing a fashion show?

This video received a better response than I expected.

The video got 700,000 views in just 24 hours after it was uploaded. I’ve never seen such an upward trend before.

‘Has some potential exploded?’

It felt like the final blow had struck while Chairman Kim Si-on and I were gradually gaining fame.

YouTube was in chaos and the community was in chaos.

In both male and female high school communities, memes were circulated, and many memes and links were circulated on places like Twitter.

– The life of Chairman Kim Si-on, who never went to camp with his parents. A childhood where he liked art and fashion but got scolded a lot. Everyone has pain. Even the chairman of a large corporation who seems to have everything.

This emotional post, along with a link, received numerous retweets. And underneath it, many people responded.

– Wow. This is the first time I’ve seen a CEO of a large corporation appear in a place like this.

– I guess designer Lee Yong-won is famous these days.

– I feel so many things when I see designer Lee Yong-won. It’s not like he just dresses someone up and that’s it, but it’s like he comforts a person’s life… … .

– But, the new is crazy? Why are they so pretty?

The reactions were also varied. Some people spoke deeply about their feelings as if they had already seen many of the shows I appeared on, while others seemed unfamiliar with me as if they were seeing me for the first time.

The keyword “Cop and Tiff” was swimming among the reactions that felt like they had such a huge temperature difference.

Even if it doesn’t burst into flames all at once, once it’s lit, the fire doesn’t go out and continues to spread hotter and hotter.

So this is what it means to go on a winning streak.

It feels like a giant hand is pushing me on the back.

One becomes two, two becomes four, four… … a feeling that grows endlessly.

My weak brain was helpless in the face of such intense stimulation.

Didn’t they say that if you give a monkey a button that randomly gives out a banana, it will just press that button all day?

I guess that’s what happened to me.

I watch YouTube, I watch communities, I search through SNS, I search through newspaper articles. I feel depressed when I see news I already know or news that is irrelevant, but I feel thrilled when I come across new news or interesting opinions.

As I searched like crazy, I also found out new information about the Gyeomyeong Group and Chairman Kim Si-on.

– The 4th largest conglomerate in Korea, Keimyung Group, is spurring reform. Chairman Kim Si-on (43) clearly expressed his will to carry out reform, saying, “Innovation is not important to us. Without innovation, we die. We have to change everything.”

– A new video uploaded to by the Chairman of the Keimyung Group is becoming a hot topic among netizens. In this video, Chairman Kim Si-on is shown personally calling in designers from Lucifone and communicating with them, saying that he will simplify the design approval line. In particular, he showed the design ideas brought by the designers to viewers in real time and allowed them to vote, which drew a hot response from netizens.

uh?

has a new video uploaded? I haven’t seen it?

I hurriedly opened YouTube. After searching, I realized why I didn’t know about it. The live broadcast hadn’t been edited yet.

There were no new videos in the ‘Videos’ list yet, and only the live video from this morning was in the ‘Live’ list.

Wow. But it looks like we’ve really become a hot topic.

A live broadcast this morning was immediately published as an article in the afternoon.

Here too, the comments were heated.

– Oh my gosh ㅋㅋㅋㅋ I didn’t know it would be this fun to stand in front of designers from big companies and give them design lessons ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

↳ So the world has really become a better place ㅋㅋㅋㅋ He’s scratching his belly at home while lecturing employees at large corporations ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

↳ Why are you scratching your stomach at home? Are you unemployed?

↳ The guy above… … . What do you mean… … . That’s what I mean.

– It looks like Chairman Kim Si-on has really sharpened his knife. I hope things go well.

– I’ve only used Lucifone for 20 years. Good luck, Chairman Kim Si-on!

– Is this the audition? LOL

-The designers are so cute!

– Ah… … . I also want to join the commandment group.

height.

Higher.

This feeling of being lifted into the sky.

I searched harder for information about the Commandments group.

As I searched and searched, I was able to find the reactions of the employees of the Commandment Group posted on the company community.

– But honestly, I like it? Since the chairman is revealing everything and working hard like that, I feel like something is really going to happen. A lively atmosphere is created.

↳ Ugh… … . I’m tired. To be honest, all I have to do is tell the people above to change, but we below would die.

↳ I see it a little differently. If you just show it off, it’s exhausting, but if you actually see results, it’s good, right? Like the recent change in design approval line. Aren’t you a little excited? If this goes well, the performance bonus will probably be big.

– I’m totally fine. There were a lot of inefficient procedures that we didn’t know about, but this time, our team leader and the shooter are completely overhauling them. Even the manager couldn’t say anything because it was an order from the chairman, lol.

Huh. Look at this. Even the morale of the employees seemed to have gone up significantly.

This really looks like it could be something.

My heart is pounding with anticipation that Chairman Kim Si-on will do something big.

When will we see results? Will we see results starting with the next Lucifone model? Then it will probably be around the second half of this year.

Once again, there is a future to look forward to.

I feel something close to emotion.

It’s really important for people to have a future to look forward to.

It was when I was looking at my phone like crazy.

“… … ! … … Won-ah! … … Yong-won! Yong-won!”

ah?

I barely came to my senses when I felt someone shaking me.

what.

“Oh, when did you come?”

“I came ten minutes ago, Inma. What are you looking at so intently?”

The one who shook me was Dongwook hyung. I don’t know when he came in, but Baek Dongsoo is sitting on the sofa next to me, sipping coffee.

“Ah… … I was looking for some news about Chairman Kim Si-on.”

Baek Dong-soo, who was drinking coffee, sparkled his eyes at my words.

“Dude. That reaction was crazy!”

“Yeah. It’s better than I expected.”

“Isn’t this just beyond my expectations? Wow. This reaction is growing exponentially!”

Right. Right.

I pretended not to be excited. I pretended not to be excited, but Baek Dong-soo knew what I wanted to say and said it to me.

A smile spread across my face without me realizing it.

“Ah. Now that we’re on the subject.”

Baek Dong-soo suddenly packed his bag and placed a few documents on the table in front of the sofa.

The guy looked at Dongwook and his eyes sparkled.

“Because Yongwon and Chairman Kim Si-on have been very active lately, I’ve also been benefiting greatly from them.”

The document Dong-su showed us with a sly smile. It was a list of clients who were interested in our star consulting.

“Wow… … . What is all this?”

I stuck out my tongue as I looked at the list.

It was the same for Dongwook hyung.

“Huh. So that’s why they hire salespeople.”

That’s true. When we thought about star consulting, what Dongwook and I vaguely thought of were celebrities.

But last time, they asked about Chairman Shin Dong-wook… … This time, the customers were more diverse.

Not only celebrities, but also internet broadcasters, YouTubers, franchise representatives, and even first-class academy instructors…

and…….

hmm?

“Wait a minute. Shilla Airlines? What is this?”

“Ah. That? There must be stewardesses at Shilla Airlines, right? They asked me to give them a new uniform and styling consultation. I personally persuaded them by saying that the face of the airline is the flight attendants. What do you think? Isn’t it great?”

Wow.

What are you?

Why are you so good at your work?

Even Baek Dong-soo, my old friend, seems unfamiliar.

Oh my gosh. What would have happened if I hadn’t noticed this guy’s style that day before the interview? Wouldn’t I have let this crazy talent go to waste?

Baek Dong-soo continued his explanation fluently while handing over the documents.

“But if we receive customers like this, we can’t necessarily raise the unit price. We only dealt with big-name customers like School Zone, Kim Ji-hoon, and Chairman Kim Si-on.”

Dongwook and I nodded our heads as if we were possessed.

“So I tried to diversify the products a bit. Instead of holding on to them for two or three months like now, I made a cheaper plan that shortened it to one to three times and lowered the cost accordingly. Honestly, if Yongwon had your ability, wouldn’t you be able to do this?”

“ah.”

Dongwook and I looked at each other at the same time.

Certainly, if we do it that way, we will be able to target a wider market while reducing the workload.

“Everyone seems interested for now. If you and Dongwook hyung agree to this new plan, we can try negotiating. What do you think?”

Dongwook said it quickly.

“I’m good! Let’s get started right away.”

Well then, all that remains is my opinion.

President Baek Dong-soo and Shin Dong-wook’s gazes were directed at me.

I thought for a moment and then answered.

“I agree. But let’s have a meeting and make a final decision. And the meeting schedule is two weeks later.”

“Two weeks later? Why?”

I chuckled at Dong-soo’s question. Dong-wook, who was beside me, tilted his head, then realized something and jumped.

“You! No way!”

Haha. As expected from my brother. You’re quick-witted.

“Yeah. I think the spring/summer collection will be completed next week. Then, it would be perfect if we take a few days off and have a meeting the week after next.”

Dongwook swallowed hard.

“Ah. Then I guess we should start preparing for production right now. First, secure the fabric stock… … Yongwon.”

“huh?”

“You. How sure are you about this new product?”

How sure are you? Well… … . The design level has also improved since the last collection. My understanding of fashion has also deepened… … . And it has become a much bigger issue through various broadcasts… … .

“A lot?”

Dongwook clenched his fist at my answer.

“How many kinds?”

“If you look at the types, there are about 50 types, and if you include color variations, you designed about 150 types, right?”

“Crazy… … . With that quality. With that uniqueness. You designed 150 of them? In such a short time? Are you human? I’m also fast with my hands… … .”

Dongwook stuck out his tongue and then clenched his fist.

“Okay. Then, let’s print 1,000 copies each and produce 150,000 copies!”

to?

“What, what? 150,000 copies?”

Crazy. It sounds good to sell 150,000 pieces, but even if each person buys 3 tops and 2 pants, that means you have to sell to 30,000 people. Are you crazy?

When I made a dumbfounded expression, Dongwook looked at me with his characteristically glaring eyes.

And then he purses his lips and utters a word.

“Shocked?”

her?

Shhh?

This is a magic spell that no man can back down from.

“call!”

There’s no way I, who can be confident in my designs thanks to the ideal type viewing function, can lose to CEO Shin Dong-wook, a mere muggle!

I jumped up and called out.
