The Bottom of a Large Company Does a Good Job - Chapter 355

Episode 355. Broken Bottle (3)
The employees of Taesung Chemical stared blankly into the hall.
The atmosphere that had seemed like someone was going to be carried away just a moment ago had completely changed.
From the moment we were first drafted, to preparing the venue and welcoming the guests, everyone was more nervous than ever.
“It’s so reckless. Shouldn’t we stop it now?”
As soon as I arrived at the convention center in the afternoon, I was worried even as I laid down my chair in the hall.
“You know what kind of people they are. They probably have a grudge against our company. What would happen if you gathered all these people together? They would never listen to you quietly.”
“Quietly? It’s fortunate that no violence breaks out. If it were me, I would be shocked and rush in when my technology is stolen and the factory goes bankrupt.”
“I’ve prepared many events, but this is not it. This is an extremely dangerous thing to do.”
“Then go and try to stop him.”
“What can I do if he doesn’t listen? I just tell him it’s okay.”
Is it because I’m too young?
The team leader, who was not yet thirty, seemed confident and determined.
It’s not that I hate that kind of look, but I’m not happy with it right now.
“I guess he thinks everything will go his way.”
“I guess you’ve never tasted anything spicy.”
“You got promoted in just a year and a half. Life seems easy because it’s so easy.”
“It’s really great that you got promoted so quickly, but surprisingly, it seems like you didn’t think much about it.”
“Isn’t it a problem that it’s too fast? I thought that because everything went smoothly, this time it would go well too. People who have always been successful can’t imagine that they are failing.”
To someone who didn’t know what was going on in Chae Kyung-jun’s head, it seemed like a reasonable guess.
He became successful at a young age and doesn’t know failure, so he thinks he can resolve this situation on his own.
On the outside, Chae Kyung-jun was like that.
“Everyone has a great plan, until it fails.”
Some people laughed at that.
Some people, out of jealousy, wanted this whole thing to go down the drain.
Even those people began to tremble when they began to greet guests.
That’s because the atmosphere among the attendees was so tense.
I didn’t even want a suit.
There weren’t many people who came dressed neatly.
There are not one or two, but dozens of people staggering, with sallow faces, or smelling of alcohol.
Among them, there was one whose face was so fierce that it was scary to make eye contact.
I didn’t pick a fight with the staff.
That was scarier.
Because it seemed as if he was saving his strength for what was to come.
This is going to blow up 100 percent of the time, was the common thought in the employees’ heads.
“Shouldn’t we call the police? If we call them after something happens, it’ll be too late.”
“I thought about that too. Should I call an ambulance in advance?”
As the staff waiting outside the door trembled in anxiety, the security team was seen rushing in.
“It happened! It happened!”
“Police! Police!”
“Whoa! The bottle is broken! Look who’s going to stab me!”
“Call 119 too!”
The employees looked inside through the open door and stamped their feet.
Blood was dripping onto the floor, as if he had cut his hand on a broken bottle.
The atmosphere was so fierce that it looked as if something would happen at any moment, so the employees had no doubt that something would happen.
I just hope that the security team that entered quickly will subdue them quickly.
This meeting should not have been held.
It’s ruined.
“Wait a minute. The team leader is stopping the security team?”
“Huh?”
“What does this mean?”
The team leader, who I thought would run away in fear of the unexpected situation, was instead coming down from the stage and approaching the man in question.
“it’s crazy.”
“I’m not in my right mind.”
It’s clear that he still hasn’t come to his senses.
Someone shut their eyes tightly.
But the situation was strange.
The young team leader spoke sharply and in a dry tone.
Because the microphone was on and the door was open, the employees outside were able to hear Chae Kyung-jun’s story.
The employees who were actually listening were turning pale, but Chae Kyung-jun remained calm.
Even though there was a security team, they didn’t even blink when there was a person with a weapon right in front of them.
Even when excited people surrounded him, he was not at all shaken.
It was almost as if he had no emotions.
This is not something that can be explained with words like youthful slapstick.
The employees were completely absorbed in Chae Kyung-jun’s story.
“It’s strange. It’s such a cold and sharp tone, but it sounds like you’re thinking of the other person.”
“Right? If you talk to me like that, it’s normal to feel bad, but why don’t you feel bad?”
The more I thought about it, the stranger the situation became.
I looked around the hall because I thought it might be because I wasn’t a party involved, and the attendees seemed similar.
Rather, he seemed to accept it more emotionally.
“You may be speaking like that, but you are speaking from the perspective of a small to medium-sized business.”
“That’s right. As someone from our company, I’m also taking their position into full consideration.”
Someone asked a question.
“Why are you doing that? There’s nothing they can do anyway. You could just give them a briefing and send them away.”
“Are you telling me to riot?”
“Then why don’t you just not call me at all?”
“That’s what I’m saying.”
Meanwhile, the commotion within the hall was being settled.
It was thanks to Chae Kyung-jun’s last words.
If the situation was the same when the attendees first came in, they wouldn’t have listened even if we had asked them to negotiate.
But now everyone waited for their turn like obedient students.
They put up the overturned chairs and sat down, each of them beginning to ponder Chae Kyung-jun’s story.
The employees who saw that scene talked seriously.
“If you hadn’t called me, I wouldn’t have known, but you already called me. Since you’ve decided to solve it, I guess you’re going to do it right.”
“If it had been just a flashy story, we wouldn’t have been able to convince those people. Would they have listened to us if we went there and said, ‘Let’s negotiate’?”
“Wouldn’t it be a mess if they dragged him out right away?”
“But that person did it.”
“I don’t think he had much of a knack for talking.”
Although I heard it as if I was possessed, it wasn’t that Chae Kyung-jun showed off his amazing speaking skills.
It just touched my heart.
At some point, it felt like Chae Kyung-jun was the person involved.
“This is driving me crazy. How on earth did you get a hold of it?”
“I watched it in real time and it was still unbelievable.”
Coming down from the platform was a very dangerous move.
If you’re on the podium, people feel psychological pressure to jump up.
But if you’re down, it’s easy to reach out.
Because if you just reach out, you can catch it.
It was an incident that could have easily resulted in violence.
But people couldn’t approach it carelessly.
“What should I call this? It’s not like it’s charisma or anything.”
Charisma is the ability of leaders to command attention.
That’s why I feel distant.
However, Chae Kyung-jun felt closer psychologically.
It felt like he was talking to me from the same perspective.
That may be why I felt even more sincerity.
“I don’t know the details, but this situation is just crazy. What is this intimacy? Are people all being quiet now?”
“I was so absorbed in something that wasn’t my job earlier. What the heck is this? How did I do it?”
The atmosphere inside the hall was even more organized.
If I had to say, it was more lively than before.
Is it because it showed hope?
People’s eyes were alive.
It is an eye that draws the future.
“Staff, please help me.”
Chae Kyung-jun jumped up onto the stage and called out to the employees who were watching.
“Oh, yes!”
The employees rushed over.
While they were gathering, Chae In-ha quickly brought a desk and chair from the corner and made a reception desk.
There was no hesitation in my hand, as if I had done this kind of thing once or twice.
A pretty decent reception desk was completed in no time using only what was available.
There were a total of five reception desks built like this.
“Everyone has a pen and paper, right? Sit down here in pairs. I’ll tell you what to write down.”
Chae Kyung-jun also seemed accustomed to improvising on the spot, so he called out the items without hesitation.
“Please write down your name, company name, company size, number of employees, and technical details briefly… … .”
“Do you need technical information as well?”
“You need to cross-check with what the company has sent you. Then, the most important thing is to write down the amount you want and have them sign next to it.”
“Even your autograph?”
“Because later on, there will definitely be someone who changes their words and increases the amount.”
The employees’ eyes widened.
He used to be lenient with small business owners, but he was strict in this regard.
“Right now, intimacy has been formed, but after some time has passed and the opposite sex returns, I will become greedy. I will think, ‘Isn’t it too little for Taesung Chemistry to bend over and come in? Should I ask a little more?’”
Chae In-ha asked cautiously.
“Are you okay? Weren’t you trying to give me as much compensation as possible?”
“You have to distinguish between public and private life. Why should you use it when it causes unnecessary losses to the company?”
Chae In-ha nodded, perhaps relieved by Chae Kyung-jun’s rational answer.
“Even if someone says they’ll think about it later and tell you, you must hear the amount today. You can tell people who don’t apply today that you won’t compensate them.”
“Why is that so?”
A Taesung Chemical employee who had been dispatched raised his hand and asked a question.
“That way, before they get greedy, they can name the amount they initially thought of. That’s the amount they think is appropriate.”
Everyone probably has a rough idea of how much their skills are worth.
As time goes by, random thoughts creep in.
It’s to hear what they think is a reasonable price.
The way the employees looked at Chae Kyung-jun changed.
No longer was he a young, confident, and inexperienced team leader to them.
It seemed like I was seeing a mature leader with the ability to command the group and make quick judgments about the situation.
“This is not something that has been rehearsed or prepared for in advance. So please sit two at a table. There will be fewer mistakes.”
He didn’t forget to make arrangements for the staff either.
The employees took their seats in admiration.
Chae Kyung-jun grabbed the microphone and began hosting.
“You can come whenever you want, as everything is ready. Please think carefully about it and tell me the amount. The amount you tell me today will not change in the future, so please tell me after careful consideration.”
It took 20 minutes for the first batter to arrive at the reception desk.
Since it wasn’t announced in advance, it takes time.
Chae Kyung-jun didn’t rush.
It was important that they offered an amount that they were satisfied with.
After consulting with the executives and employees who had come with them, the managers began to come to the reception desk one by one.
Of course, it didn’t all go smoothly.
“Team Leader! This guy here is asking for 10 billion!”
Some people even called it an opportunity and asked for ridiculous prices.
Chae Kyung-jun wanted to give them a second chance, not let them rip off the company.
No matter how selfish he may have been, he never forgot his role.
He is Taesung’s problem solver.
“Sir, if you offer such an absurd amount of money, we have no choice but to throw the table in the towel. We will have to be convinced before we pay, whether we want to or not.”
“If you don’t like it, quit! We need to get 10 billion!”
Chae Kyung-jun said coldly, looking at her eyes that were sparkling with greed.
“Really? I guess I’ll quit. I understand that you don’t want to be compensated.”
“Huh? Huh? Wait a minute!”
The creation of this place was entirely thanks to Chae Kyung-jun.
Still, Gap was Taesung Chemical.
The president, who realized the situation late, hung on.
“Wait a minute, I misspoke. A billion, a billion will do!”
“This is your last chance. Don’t kick me this time.”
“thank you!”
People who tried to fool themselves into thinking they were young and make a quick buck were immediately caught by Chae Kyung-jun.
Under Chae Kyung-jun’s supervision, everyone’s bids were submitted.
Chae Kyung-jun received papers from his employees, looked through them one by one, and then handed them to Na Jae-hong.
“Give it to the CEO. Tell him to check with the legal team to see if it’s an appropriate amount and then approve it.”
Chae Kyung-jun cannot judge whether the amount is correct.
The rest was the job of the legal and technical teams.
Since we’ve done this much, Taesung Chemical will be able to finish it off.
“I’ll pass it on right away.”
Na Jae-hong took it carefully as if it were an important document and put it in his bag.
And I held my bag tightly for fear of losing it.
“Then, this concludes the Taesung Chemical Technology Conference.”
As Chae Kyung-jun declared the closing ceremony and went down, people standing here and there in the aisle made way for him.
As I passed by, I heard a small muttering sound.
“thank you.”
The expression of gratitude started by one person soon spread like a contagious virus.
Words of gratitude came from all over.
When Chae Kyung-jun left the president’s office, people near the entrance were bowing their heads.
Chae Kyung-jun laughed bitterly.
Today he didn’t just save them.
His past self was also there.
Let’s go outside. The wind was blowing under the hot sun.
It was refreshing.
