To be honest, at the last working-level meeting, I was a ‘mild taste’.

Because I didn’t know what they were thinking until I met Lee Dae-hoon and Jeon Chang-soon.

‘As expected, office politics is irritating. I don’t want to get involved.’

This is a summary of my conclusions.

Of course, I wasn’t the only one who deduced what was going on in the heads of Lee and the former managing director.

“Now manager Lee Dae-hoon is screaming while his head is exploding.”

These were Cha Sung-soo’s words.

Cha Seong-soo is actually not a YouTuber who can be called ‘nice’ unconditionally.

First of all, he is a YouTuber who runs his own shopping mall.

Compared to Lee Yong and Seong Yoohyeon, who take the stance of pure reviewers, he is a YouTuber who needs to be treated with much more care.

But there are good points.

After filming together, he said everything he couldn’t say in the spirit of ‘Nopaku’ without adding or subtracting in one word during the after party.

“Yayyo?”

“ah. You’re young, don’t you know these words? I’m going to catch you.”

“ah.”

I nodded.

“I heard from our ‘Perma’ (Purple Mask). I heard that the staff is very hostile right now?”

Heeyeon, who was sitting together, asked.

“hmm. that’s right. They are going to come out.”

“hmm. That’s why it’s a fight between me and bari. It’s really funny.”

Heeyeon pursed her lips.

“It looks like he’s thinking about one more thing.”

“What is it?”

“Aren’t Ko Hyeon-se and Ko Hyeon-seok fighting in secret?”

“hmm.”

Seongsoo Cha looked at me and asked, but I didn’t respond properly.

What do you think about me? You can’t easily tie it up.

“Heh.”

After seeing my reaction, Cha Seong-soo smiled bitterly and continued.

“Anyway, everyone in the automotive industry knows that the two are fighting. Including YouTubers.”

“yes.”

“Among them, I think they’re trying to take a shot at Go Hyeon-se, who brought along a YouTuber by standing on Ko Hyeon-wook’s side. After all, I’m trying to play a big role in company politics and drink some rice cakes.”

“hmm. indeed.”

I was vaguely thinking that might be the case too.

When Seongsu Cha said this, I became convinced.

“That, do team leader Seong Yoo-hyeon or CEO Lee Yong think that way?”

It is clear that the three of them would have gathered together and talked about this meeting without me.

Anyway, Seongsoo Cha did not bother to hide the fact that there was a conversation about it.

‘I like this kind of personality.’

“President Lee Yong-han didn’t say anything. Seong Yoo-hyeon, team leader, said that he had the same opinion.”

“aha.”

With this much understanding of the situation, the loading of bullets was roughly over.

Now it’s your turn to attend the meeting with a calm mind.

* * *

“so. In our review opinion, it’s a bit embarrassing.”

“…”

After Manager Lee Dae-hoon finished his words, there was silence in the meeting room for a moment.

The crowd laughed bitterly.

And all their eyes turned to me.

“…”

I didn’t say anything, just shrugged.

“So, how about clearing up the reasons why it doesn’t work?”

“The development cost is high and the cost ratio is low. However, no matter how popular camping cars are in the domestic market, there is no way that tens of thousands of units will be sold. In the end, even if you make it, you won’t make a profit. You have to yield a hundred times to break even.”

Manager Lee Dae-hoon said in a rigid posture.

The only person he was nervous about was Ko Hyeon-seok at this meeting.

The problem is that it is so obvious.

“hmm.”

Ko Hyun-seok touched his chin.

Seeing that, Manager Lee put on a proud expression.

But, as far as I understood, it seemed to be the result of manager Lee completely misunderstanding Ko Hyeon-seok’s intentions.

Shouldn’t now be the time to like it?

“hmm. You came to that conclusion. I’m sorry.”

Ko Hyeon-se said with a sad expression.

Hearing that, Ko Hyeon-seok frowned and said,

“What is regret?”

“…”

The atmosphere turned grim.

Ko Hyeon-se avoided answering that question and scratched his head.

“hmm. hmm. May I say something?”

Executive Director Jeon Chang-soon stepped forward.

“yes. Please speak.”

Go Hyun-se answered softly.

“yes. do it.”

“I definitely felt this time that YouTubers have a lot of knowledge. Much more than we expected.”

After laying the groundwork like this, the former managing director continued.

“But. However, I don’t think we can overcome the limitations of each area.”

“What do you mean?”

“Certainly, market potential predictions and things like that are good. However, product planning is meaningless once you make a product and lose money. Development costs and actual sales numbers have to be predicted, but that is something we can’t touch.”

“hmm. Will it?”

Ko Hyeon-se avoided an immediate answer and continued to give the former executive director the right to speak.

“yes. Of course, that’s not to say that YouTubers are opposed to participating in such a project. However, I would like to say that we must clearly distinguish the areas of activity and collaborate.”

The former managing director spoke in a solemn way and put on a satisfied expression.

“hmm. Once analyzed and commented. if…”

Ko Hyeon-se looked at the seats where the YouTubers were sitting.

Again, the eyes of the three YouTubers turned to me.

And, I could see Cha Sung-soo’s hips shaking.

If I didn’t start talking right away, it was a sign that he would.

“hmm. Let me tell you something.”

“yes yes.”

Go Hyun-se nodded his head with a happy expression.

“First of all, your analysis says that if you develop a new van, you won’t be able to turn a profit until the 7th year of launch?”

“yes. It can be said that it will happen after 7 years, but usually, the cycle of one generation of a car is set as 7 years. After 7 years, it can be seen that competitiveness declines.”

Director Lee spoke as if he would block my objections.

“yes. okay.”

“First of all, the reliability issue of our analysis is…”

I deliberately interrupted this manager.

“ah. Reliability, I have no doubts. How could I doubt that? I don’t have the data itself to do statistics on.”

“hmm. yes.”

The chief kept his mouth shut.

“Instead, could I ask about the criteria for the statistics?”

“yes? yes. sure. You may be able to confirm. But what is the standard for that?”

I didn’t answer that question, but immediately asked a question.

“First of all, the estimated sales were based on the size of the domestic camping car market.”

“yes. That’s what I took to the maximum.”

“What is your export forecast?”

“The proportion of vehicles other than passenger cars and trucks in L’s exports is almost zero. So I didn’t catch it.”

“why. For example, in the case of the French R car, it is not a manufacturer sold at all in Korea, but there are cases where it sold well because it met the specifications of a camper.”

“hmm. It is. But how likely is that?”

“well? Does that sound strange?”

Ko Hyun-seok intervened.

“yes?”

Manager Lee flinched. Because it’s Ko Hyun-seok’s words.

“Once you plan, of course you have to factor in export competitiveness, right? Why don’t you make calculations based on the premise that L Motors van exports are not good?”

“Ah, that…”

“First of all, if you are asked to plan a van from above, you should try to increase the possibility of export, not give up on the possibility of export and plan. But you approached it completely backwards?”

“laugh.”

“Think about it again. If it doesn’t sell, I won’t plan it. It is not the planning team who says this.”

“yes yes.”

“Tsk.”

Ko Hyun-seok clicked his tongue.

“Once the domestic market is expected, there is a slight deficit. However, in terms of the export market, I do not know. You can sort it out like this.”

When I said this, Manager Lee flinched.

He didn’t like my arrangement.

However, he, who was intimidated by Ko Hyun-seok’s sullen attitude a moment ago, couldn’t stop me from continuing my next words.

“And, one more question.”

I said this, and manager Lee threw the question right away without giving me time to answer.

“This car is a product that pioneers a different market from the cars normally released by L Motors. So, there’s publicity value that can be recouped when this product hits the market, doesn’t that count?”

“uh…”

The chief’s eyes widened.

Of course, that this wasn’t calculated was enough to be understood from Lee’s briefing.

Besides, although it is called a ‘planning team’ after all, it is a planning team specialized in technology and demand research.

They have little ability to answer the questions, ‘How do you create demand?’ and ‘How do you overturn the market?’

There is something Cha Seong-soo said about this.

“Isn’t it surprising that the planning team of each large company approaches the market with a small picture? But what are you going to do? First of all, even in the challenge to overturn the market like that, the top heads are all cut. In the end, it’s just developing things based on demand research that hasn’t changed for decades. That’s why our products are like that.”

‘Couldn’t it be that people who work for large corporations do that?’, but after hearing Cha Seong-soo’s words, I became convinced.

“It is not a naive thought that the product itself will be profitable when the Korean automobile press and officials are asking to make an open car like that. The promotional effect of the product is great.”

I spoke carefully.

“I know? Have you calculated that?”

Koh Hyun-seok heard me and asked the former managing director.

When Jeon’s eyes met Ko Hyeon-seok’s, he hurriedly turned his gaze to Manager Lee.

“That, that.”

The manager stuttered.

“I was going to say the same thing.”

Cha Sung-soo asked again.

“me too.”

Seong Yoo-hyeon followed.

“hmm. I feel the same way.”

When the trend was decided, Yong Yong also participated.

“Can’t we do it here?”

Ko Hyeon-seok muttered, then cleared his throat and said.

“In my opinion, this meeting showed the great need for the planning team to collaborate with others.”

“hmm.”

Ko Hyeon-se also nodded at those words.

“Demand research and creation cannot all be done with one paradigm. I don’t want to evaluate our planning team as necessarily wrong. Because the original stagnant water is rotten.”

At Ko Hyeon-seok’s last words, the faces of manager Lee and former executive director turned earthy.

“This collaboration with YouTubers seems to have been successful in that respect.”

Ko Hyeon-seok accepted Ko Hyeon-seok’s words and continued.

“yes. I also think I did a good job with this meeting. I didn’t calculate the export demand and publicity effect, but it comes out roughly like break-even? Then there is no reason not to.”

“I agree too.”

“What about the manager?”

Ko Hyeon-se asked this question, what would Executive Director Jeon Chang-soon do?

“I-I agree too!”

“great.”

Go Hyun-se smiled.

* * *

“I did.”

Ko Hyun-seok looked at me and smiled.

“yes. Thanks to my brother for helping me.”

“joy. I didn’t help you.”

“yes yes.”

I smiled and nodded.

“Anyway, the other YouTubers just came with a few promotional plans. Compared to that, you are a star.”

“Ugh. A star?”

“joy. Should we prepare for the next stage now?”

Ko Hyeon-seok revealed this and asked.

“huh? What stage is it?”

“What stage is it? L electronics.”

“Ugh.”

I shook my head.

“I only tasted it, but the company politics is annoying. If possible, I will not wear it again.”

“joy. Then what are you going to do? Aren’t you meddling in L Group’s internal politics anyway?”

“no. older brother. no.”

I shook my head slowly.

“Then what are you going to do?”

“It’s midterm exam period.”

“Kha. Are you going to say that you will focus on your studies because you are a student?”

Go Hyun-seok said with a face full of energy.

“no. That’s not it.”

“then?”

“I was looking forward to the midterm exam period. I want to go to Monte Carlo.”

“what? Monte Carlo?”
