The 3th Generation of the Chaebol Wants to Live Quietly - Chapter 1150

1150.
Moreover, I was reluctant to collaborate with the staff at the training center.
But after trying it, my eyes opened wide.
After actually making it, my thoughts changed.
“… This is really good.”
Even Manager Yoo Jin-sik tilted his head.
“You like it that much? We’re not sure about that.”
“Anyone who knows anything about gaming consoles can’t help but love it.”
“Game console?”
“Don’t you know? Oh, if you’re not a game enthusiast, you might not know.”
Ian McGrane is what you might call a game nerd. He is a game enthusiast who is obsessed with games when he is not working.
It started when I was in high school.
Chief Eugene Sik couldn’t quite understand Ian McGrane’s feelings.
Ian McGrane didn’t like that. He showed me some of the classic Nintendo games he had brought with him on his business trip to Korea, as well as some of the hot new Sony games.
He knew better than most game experts.
It was not for nothing that Dr. Lee Ji-soo singled him out and sent him on a business trip to Korea.
“…hmm.”
Chief Eugene Sik looked at Ian McGrane with suspicious eyes, his eyes wide.
I felt like my first impression was completely ruined.
But Ian McGrane ignored Chief Eugene’s gaze.
He explained, spitting out words.
“These days, Nintendo is starting to falter, but that’s not because the console market is shrinking. It’s just that the competitive landscape has changed with Sony entering the market. The console market grows every year. But this game is competing with that.”
“That’s right. The game console market. That’s right. That market. There was a reason for that.”
However, Vice President Yoo Jin-sik was not sure even when answering. He also reviewed the market potential through activities within the team.
But I wondered if it would ever be possible to compete with a company like Nintendo.
‘I wonder if Director Choi Min-hyeok even considered this.’
It was difficult to see it as just a simple thought.
If you look closely at the game’s characteristics, they have those properties.
However, Ian McGrane also thought a little differently.
“Besides, this isn’t the only one. As far as I know, there are more than a dozen games here that are already in the final stages of development.”
To be exact, it was the task of upgrading the source code of a subcontractor that Director Choi Min-hyeok had outsourced.
However, the results are still unknown.
But even then, Ian McGrane thought a little differently.
Far from being disappointed with his business trip to Korea, he devoted himself to it.
Because the possibilities are endless.
“Why did the company give up on this?”
“… I’m not sure about that.”
Ian McGrane openly mocked the early developers.
“You’re crazy. You’re going to regret giving up on such a great idea. Oh, and just in case, talk to your legal team. They might claim ownership and end up in a legal battle.”
“… That’s right.”
Chief Yoo Jin-sik couldn’t understand why Lee Wan was so persistent.
However, on the other hand, he recalled Director Choi Min-hyeok’s actions up to now.
‘Unless I’m just lucky, Ian might be the one. But how on earth does he do it?’
I just couldn’t figure out how.
In fact, the developer who developed this game had similar thoughts.
But Ian McGrane had a different idea. He called Dr. Lee Ji-soo and took action right away.
[It’s hard for me to pull up the schedule by myself. Please send more manpower. It would be good if they are my colleagues. I will do the persuasion. Yes, please.]
***
After receiving a call from Ian McGrane, Dr. Lee Ji-soo instructed the headquarters human resources team to select additional personnel for the business trip and send them to Korea.
She tilted her head as she gave instructions.
I acknowledge Ian McGrane’s abilities, but I’m not sure if I trust him.
So I couldn’t send it to the important parts within KMBOOK.
His motives are the same.
Helen frowned at the sight of Dr. Lee Ji-soo.
“Just cut it and pick someone else?”
Dr. Lee Ji-soo sighed.
“It’s hard to find someone that talented.”
“But it’s better than stealing technology.”
“If it’s a technology that can be stolen, then it doesn’t matter. This business trip to Korea is like that too.”
“Oh, by the way, you said that source was outsourced to a domestic partner company? Did Director Choi Min-hyeok take that into consideration?”
“maybe.”
Dr. Lee Ji-soo was confident that it would be so.
Dr. Pablo Russen, who smiled as he approached her, was no different. He tried not to show it on the outside, but his appearance was exactly like Dr. Taylor’s.
“Is there anything I can help you with?”
“There are a lot.”
But she reacted coolly. She pretended not to know what Dr. Pablo Russen meant.
What he wants is not vehicle technology, but autonomous driving technology that works together.
Plus, I had a lot of questions about the anime’s structure.
“That level system. How exactly do you divide it?”
“It’s digging.”
“yes?”
“You have to keep hitting it with your senses over and over again.”
To be precise, it captures and prioritizes repetitive vocabulary statistics.
This way, we cut out commonly used vocabulary and phrases.
It was a concept similar to a kind of vocabulary cache.
However, this includes sophisticated statistics.
The only people who knew the logic were Dr. Helen and herself.
The only one who knows deeply is yourself.
Dr. Lee Ji-soo asked about information related to the HY automobile engine, ignoring Dr. Pablo Russen’s reaction of struggling to know the inside story.
In fact, HY automotive engineers did not answer this question.
But Dr. Pablo Russen was different. He told all sorts of stories, even based on information coming from the vehicles in the test site.
In the past, GM did provide information about its vehicles, but it was limited.
There were also some subtle omissions in the data.
She had to console herself with her regret because she even needed that information.
But Dr. Pablo Russen didn’t quite understand that. He was so obsessed with autonomous driving that he overlooked other things.
Helen whispered in Dr. Lee Ji-soo’s ear while Dr. Pablo Russen was away briefly fiddling with the instruments for a vehicle test.
“I told you, you’re really stupid.”
Dr. Lee Ji-soo chuckled.
“You have to give as much as you receive.”
“I guess they still think we’re just giving away stuff like idiots.”
“We found out through Dr. Taylor. If we didn’t know, we might have been victimized.”
In fact, when you work on a project together and become close, you tend to talk about all sorts of things.
Some of them may contain important information related to anime design.
In fact, Dr. Taylor stole that technology.
But I had been treated like that, and now I couldn’t do it.
Dr. Lee Ji-soo looked at Dr. Pablo Russen and the HY automotive engineer with cold eyes.
Helen didn’t like that.
“Does Director Choi Min-hyeok know about this situation?”
“maybe.”
“You didn’t tell me, did you?”
“Because I believe.”
“This is fucking crazy.”
Helen was not happy with the current situation and was openly harassing Dr. Lee Ji-soo. It was a reaction of genuine concern for her.
“Ian too, and HY cars too. I think they do things too dull.”
Dr. Lee Ji-soo also nodded obediently. However, she was satisfied with the information she had obtained through collaboration with HY automotive engineers so far.
‘It will be a great help in the development of autonomous animation technology. If we only look at the results, the current situation is not so bad.’
Finally, Helen stepped forward.
“I’ll take care of Ian’s business, so just focus on this. This is the information you were trying to get when you were working with GM. This time, let’s get it.”
“… Thank you. Thank you so much.”
Dr. Lee Ji-soo was also grateful for his lifelong friend Helen. However, sometimes, her gaze felt burdensome. That is, when she looked at him with a gaze that was more than a friend.
She naturally thought of Director Choi Min-hyeok.
The person who gave you a second chance.
I couldn’t thank you enough.
These days, I find myself thinking of his face more and more often.
Helen ground her teeth as she looked at Dr. Lee Ji-soo with eyes filled with jealousy.
‘This is all because of Director Choi Min-hyeok!’
***
Director Choi Min-hyeok nodded readily after hearing Dr. Helen’s request.
As the number of business travelers increased, it wasn’t so bad.
I understand Chief Eugene’s intentions, but it will ultimately take quite some time.
‘If an expert helps, that time will be reduced.’
In fact, it was difficult to find the right person.
A person you can trust and leave things to.
‘Isn’t that right? Because we outsourced it to a partner company.’
I shook off my complicated thoughts.
He understood Ian McGrane’s thinking.
Even though he had some trouble starting out, it was a huge hit.
To be exact, the remaining 19 games were all like that.
But there was a difference.
He didn’t bother to tell his subcontractors everything in detail.
It was just a matter of setting the composition.
I hoped the company would take care of the rest.
As a result, it failed.
But it was really difficult to talk about it specifically.
The fact is that when the smartphone market opens, it will be a real jackpot.
‘This is what HY Automobile is suspicious of.’
Team Leader Jo Seong-don was worried about how to say this while watching Director Choi Min-hyeok’s expression. He himself was not much different.
He knew and didn’t know why Director Choi Min-hyeok was so obsessed with this matter.
It was a decision made because we didn’t really know the value of a killer app.
“… If you keep doing it, aren’t there times when you might fail?”
Director Choi Min-hyeok chuckled.
“Do you really think so?”
“That’s a bit… … .”
Director Choi Min-hyeok wanted Ian’s colleagues to join him this time to speed up the work. After all, Team Leader Yoo Jin-sik would take care of the rest.
“I honestly want Team Leader Eugene Sik to become independent and start his own company. I think he will be more desperate to do this. That means success is certain.”
This is what Director Choi Min-hyeok is concerned about.
Why do they say that lion cubs are raised by dropping them off the edge of a cliff?
Team Manager Eugene Sik also thought that doing so would increase efficiency.
‘But it seems too harsh.’
“… … .”
Team leader Jo Seong-don eventually kept his mouth shut. He didn’t really understand the value of defense games, especially the ones he was watching right now.
This means that the game is a global hit, with over a billion downloads.
It was natural for him, since even Plims was still a long way off.
Director Choi Min-hyeok clicked his tongue. However, he could not handle it as he pleased as KM Electronics had internally stabilized and its personnel structure had been established.
That won’t work either.
In order for the company to grow larger, it had to adhere to some organizational rules.
“It’s sad that I have to feed everything. There’s nothing I can do about it. Team Leader Cho has that kind of personality, so what can I do? He’s also careful, which has its advantages.”
Team leader Jo Seong-don bowed his head.
“…I will try my best.”
“Okay. That’s Team Leader Cho’s strength. Let’s do this. First, leak this defense game information to Senior Vice President Kim Hyun-woo. Oh, and since HY Automobile is also nitpicking on specific performance, let’s do this too.”
“…Is this noise marketing?”
“Yes. This is not our intention to do everything. Senior Vice President Kim Hyun-woo will review it for counterattack, and then it will naturally spread to those around us.”
“…All right.”
“But before that, please double-check the legal issues with the game’s initial development partner. I hate the hassle of getting involved in a lawsuit. I think that’s what Senior Vice President Kim Hyun-woo will ultimately be aiming for.”
“I’ll talk to the legal team again.”
Team Leader Jo Seong-don wasn’t all that surprised. He had already heard that Director Choi Min-hyeok was trying to use Senior Vice President Kim Hyeon-woo.
‘I don’t know, but.’
He knows it too. He’s repeated similar things several times in the past. Director Choi Min-hyeok thinks the failure of this app program is the company’s fault.
