86. another genius
“There is a problem.”
“What’s wrong?”
“First, watch this video.”
Director Lee Tae-young sends video files via messenger.
I finished the download in an instant and checked the contents.
It was a place that appeared to be a mechanical engineering research complex.
“It’s KAIST.”
“ah.”
“Can you see the guy wearing glasses in that video?”
Wearing gold-rimmed glasses… … I saw a handsome young man with a good impression.
“Our Jung-yeop is an unfaithful friend. Baek Kang-hyuk… … His father and I have been ball friends since childhood.”
“aha.”
“Pay attention to him.”
Turned up the volume.
– This is the final test.
-There have been no problems in the tests so far, but you shouldn’t be vigilant until the end, because there may be mistakes you don’t know about.
-ruler. Start testing.
And he was wearing clear goggles.
However, the shape of the goggles is a bit… … no, it was very special.
A cable was connected, covering the face and a band wrapped around the head.
– switch on.
The screen changes.
‘virtual reality?’
It was a familiar shape.
‘Disney Fantastic World? Then you’re saying that the goggles were VR?’
It’s not just a console game, it’s a VR MMORPG, so the VR mode is of course supported.
However, the quality was outstanding.
It’s so good that it can’t even compare to any other product on the market.
The change of viewpoint is also free.
1st person mode to 3rd person mode. Even the quarter view switch is very free… … .
‘The frame is so soft!’
And the three-dimensionality and vitality are excellent.
‘I developed a VR device!’
That’s great too… … .
The character on the screen pretends to take off the goggles.
The game screen goes back to the real screen.
The dazzling handsome man took off his goggles and said.
– I think this is enough for functional tests, but there are a few minor problems. But it’s money… … I need more money… … Well, let’s get this far!
Taeyeon raised her head.
“When is the video?”
“yesterday. The person who filmed it is my son Jeong-yeop.”
“I have to go see you right away. We need to secure this technology.”
Director Lee Tae-young grins.
“I asked to see you because of that problem.”
“yes?”
“He said he was a big fan of yours and asked me to arrange a table for him.”

“I am an optician attending KAIST. I am in my first year and I am personally interested in computer science, especially virtual reality implementation.”
Looking closer, even if he were to debut as a celebrity right away, he was a young man who would gather a huge issue with just his visual.
“This is Yoo Tae-yeon.”
Because glasses-won came directly to Seoul, Taeyeon invited them to the office building in Gangnam.
Since we would be having such a confidential conversation, a place like a cafe was not suitable for a meeting.
Director Lee Tae-young said proudly.
“This guy has been known as a genius since childhood. The elementary school kid was the first in the world to hack a console game console and unlock the latest smartphone carrier every time, and in middle school, he alone won first place in a world hacking competition attended by more than 1,000 teams from 100 countries.”
“ah… … .”
“When I was in high school, I was already invited to Silicon Valley and Seosung Group to participate in a huge project as a mercenary. He’s the guy who refused even when Apple, Google, and Facebook offered to sign a contract with them right away and give them whatever they asked for.”
Taeyeon was very surprised.
Isn’t that a genius no matter who sees it?
“Is there any reason you turned down such a good offer?”
“The words are obvious.”
A smiling optician.
“I know that I have a talent for engineering myself. I like that too, and I was prepared early on to walk my own path. But in this external field, I am mediocre. I hate arguing with anyone, and my leadership is so-so.”
“ah… … .”
“I know my subject very well. In fact, VR goggles is also a project I started by myself after watching movies, novels, and comic books about virtual reality and being impressed. I thought I would like to make a virtual reality game.”
Excluding his engineering talent, it means that he is a very ordinary Korean youth.
‘In a word, it means that there is no ability to protect and nurture the treasure of talent from external enemies.’
“So, I have been consulting with Mr. … That’s why I asked the CEO to let me see him.”
“How can I help you?”
“Because the CEO is the most ideal leader in my opinion.”
Taeyeon’s eyes were twinkling uncomfortably.
“Because I am a fan of the CEO, I know everything about the path he has walked and what he is doing now! I want to open the era of virtual reality games with CEO Jeon!”
It is a choice that will take a lifetime of its own.
“Finally, Uncle Taeyoung, who is one of the few adults I really trust and rely on, is someone I trust infinitely. I know very well how difficult this man’s eyes are and how deep his heart is.
Pure heat begins to blaze in the clear eyes.
“I think it’s amazing to have gained the trust of such an old man in a really short amount of time. And in fact, I think that is CEO Yoo Tae-yeon’s true ability. Gaining people’s trust in a short time!”
“There is an exaggeration in the expression, but I don’t think I am wrong. I felt the same way watching you. In fact, the main developers of our company now are your old colleagues, and other working-level staff would die if you said that.”
Taeyeon wanted to call it a struggle out of embarrassment.
‘I’m not such a great person… … .’
For some reason, it seems to be increasingly wrapped in strange images.
Taeyeon cleared her throat and said.
“How many test devices did you bring?”
“I brought three! This is all samples. I sourced the parts one by one and assembled them by hand… … .”
Taeyeon nodded and said.
“Let’s start with a test and then continue talking.”
Now at Nexple, there were many employees with great specifications who had walked the elite path in each field.
KAIST, of course, Waterloo, MIT, etc. There were also master’s and doctoral degrees from world-renowned engineering colleges. Taeyeon called them in and tested the device together.
result… … .
“This is really… … It’s hard to believe that a mere undergraduate student made such progress. This is an innovation!”
“You’ve advanced generations of technological advances. If you’re alone like this… … . If you make up your mind and gather manpower to set up a laboratory, it is possible to further improve it here.”
Even experts are amazed.
On the other hand, Taeyeon was thinking a little differently while watching it.
‘Currently, the most popular new attractions in theme parks combine dark rides with VR and the latest 3D mapping technology. If this technology is applied here, it is possible to evolve the overall level of the Gwacheon Park complex.’
He said that the goal was to implement a real exhaust virtual reality game appearing in the media.
“CEO. This guy is a real genius. Same with this technique… … You have to catch it unconditionally.”
“Even if you give money as you ask for it, you have to hold on to it. If you miss it, it will remain as a big regret forever.”
Even Choi Jong-hak, Park Gyeong-yeon, and Park Myung-hoon.
The three of them rolled their eyes and said this.
“brother. employment for life. Unconditional employment… … !”
“Give me anything you ask for, whether it’s money or stocks, no matter what!”
“You team. That guy is a real genius! At that age, I made nonsense by myself! You know Tony Stark? That kind of genius!”
Everyone speaks in unison.
hold on to it somehow
Beyond that, Taeyeon was thinking of various maps that could utilize this technology.
‘Of course I have to catch it.’
There was no reason to delay.
“Let’s make a deal. Give me a salary, give me stocks, a dedicated development lab, a house… … Well, I’ll do anything you ask for.”
“really?!”
brightening face.
Taeyeon held out her hand and said.
“Let’s open the era of virtual reality games with me. Whether it’s money or whatever, I’ll give full support to everything you need, and I’ll block you when storms come, so let’s do what you want to do to your heart’s content.”

After the interior work was completed, the massive relocation of the Gangnam and Pangyo offices began.
‘It’s so big that the cost of moving is enormous.’
I remember being surprised when I moved my newlyweds’ house from Pangyo to Gangnam because it cost quite a bit. However, this previous work cost an incomparably huge amount of money.
A lot of manpower was put in, and there were so many expensive equipment, so various insurance premiums and special expenses were added. Taeyeon couldn’t believe her eyes when she first saw the bill.
‘I think I’m going to move to Gwacheon again… … If the Yongsan office building is okay after living there, it would be good to promote the purchase.’
There were so many internal arrangements to be made that even though we were refraining from hiring as much as possible, the speed at which the number of people increased was frightening. If you make up your mind to expand your business and start recruiting, your office building might be filled in no time.
‘Because everything doesn’t go as planned.’
Didn’t you create a VR research center by recruiting opticians just this time? My head was dizzy just thinking about the direction this business would go and whether it would expand… … .
‘Even as a rule of thumb, for a while, I will be submitting huge expenses related to VR research, infrastructure and business expansion.’
You will have to cover that expense elsewhere.
The other place is, of course, game sales.
Taeyeon let out a small sigh.
‘As I always feel, running a business is never easy.’

“Wow, this building is really nice!”
“Have you been to the Hanging Gardens? It’s really well done there. The whole of Yongsan comes into view… … Oh, you can see the Han River and the park very well!”
“There is no such thing as Manhattan. No, when did Yongsan get so good?”
“It’s been really hard to commute… … End of trouble now! This is the start of happiness!”
First work at Yongsan new office building!
The staff looked strange and happy.
One of the biggest reasons was that commuting to and from work has become much easier.
From nob le mt l dot com
Moving to a new office building this time, the company posted an eye-opening notice.
[Commuter bus operation case.]
Commuting shuttle bus welfare is supported again.
Anyone can use it only for full-time employees, and they plan to operate it at a leisurely pace, taking into account those living in the provinces, rather than operating only one.
In this way, the burden of commuting to and from work is greatly reduced, so it was something to be welcomed by the employees with open arms.
Another reason is that the cafeteria was reorganized and operated buffet-style like Silicon Valley big tech companies.
For those who can’t eat breakfast and commute to work, they run a cereal bar and open a dedicated convenience store to help them use it at a very discounted price.
In addition, the welfare system has been greatly reorganized and usability and convenience have greatly improved, so the employees welcomed Taeyeon’s reign.
All of this was thanks to the steep and steady rise in sales and growth of the company since Taeyeon’s inauguration as CEO.
In addition, internal rumors were circulating that everyone could look forward to the upcoming salary negotiation season, so the atmosphere was even better.

The VR lab, which is mainly occupied by an optical shop, is located on the top floor of the office building.
A studio equipped with state-of-the-art equipment such as chroma key and 3D scanning is located on the basement floor.
The reason why the research center was located on the top floor was for thorough security, and the reason why the studio was located on the ground floor was that it was advantageous to work in a place where maximum external exposure was blocked.
In addition, a new development and maintenance team was appropriately placed, and additionally, a cafeteria and cafeteria for employees on the middle floor, a goods shop for outside visitors from the 1st to 3rd floors, a photo zone, a game museum, a game experience hall, a neckple cafe, There is also a PC room.
This was a project that was carried out with reference to ‘Save’, the best entertainment company standing right next to it like a twin tower.
Taeyeon wanted to make the Nexple new building a public-friendly place. So, I hoped that it would be reborn as a space where you can come and enjoy it anytime, even if you are not on a PC or mobile phone.
The results came quickly.
[Neckple Yongsan new office tour!]
[If you go to Yongsan, there is save~ and Nepple~]
