Manpower Reinforcement Let's Go
President Shim let out a hollow laugh.
“U-gwang’s union is protesting fiercely day after day? Even occupying the office?”
“Yes.”
“Ha, hahaha. These bastards gone crazy.”
President Shim’s hollow laugh had no end.
“Absurd. This. Even hearing hard to believe. Doing such a thing in this situation now?”
President Shim shook his head.
“Not other times but right after the acquisition merger. These children determined wanting to all get cut?”
Agree.
“What is acquisition merger? A company sold and going over to another company. Such a thing usually happens when ‘completely ruined’.”
Is there a need to sell a well-rolling business to others forcibly.
“What do you think is the reason for cutting even unnecessary manpower while cutting unnecessary businesses?
President Shim clicked his tongue.
“To stick my people in that empty seat.”
Does the seat my people sit just appear?
To have the rolling stone pull out the stuck stone, even the pretext of restructuring is needed.
So restructuring right after acquisition merger was an unavoidable course.
“U-gwang union also knows this well. If disliked by the upper line at such a time, will be fired mercilessly.”
Because a matter where livelihood is at stake.
When grandfather determined the engagement break and decided to hand over Taeseong Chemicals, the most cared about was precisely this part.
-This grandfather is blocking U-gwang saying will do restructuring, saying sell right away and running wild.
-2,000 jobs, even their families at least 8,000 mouths attached.
President Shim said as if nothing particular.
“This side is holding the leash. If not wanting to put spider web on the living mouth, the side that has to watch eyes······.”
“Even though the union is occupying the office, closing factories and workplaces, raising voices in front of newspapers and broadcasts?”
“······.”
That was the reality.
“President Shim, currently U-gwang Chemicals is in a floating state.”
In a mere time not even three months, Taeseong Chemicals underwent drastic changes.
From Taeseong to U-gwang, from U-gwang back to Taeseong.
How many personnel moved in that process.
“Asserted employment succession, but in the reacquisition process didn’t use the word ‘complete employment succession’.”
“Even if used such a word, a matter that can change as much as want depending on the situation. Because management is such.”
President Shim leaned his back on the sofa.
“A weak dog is barking. Seems desperately struggling lest own voice, own existence gets buried, at such a time the more executives and managers step forward······.”
“Even U-gwang Chemicals executives and management positions joined the protest.”
“······What did you say just now?”
President Shim released the crossed legs back and returned to original.
Leaned the body tightly toward father.
“What how are U-gwang Chemicals executives and management positions?”
“Watching, no, sympathizing with the union’s protest.”
“These damned bastards······!”
President Shim hardened his expression.
Father also had a hard expression the same.
“The meaning that executives are urging the situation to worsen?”
“Voluntarily disbanded the security guards. During the office occupation, of course reporting even any resistance at all none.”
“Haaa?”
“Group boycott.”
President Shim whether flabbergasted spat a hollow laugh.
“These bastards ate rat poison as a group?”
“They would have had calculation in their own way.”
Father made a bitter smile.
“As you know, currently the executive level manpower I can use is extremely insufficient.”
The president seat taken while purging Taeseong Construction.
Moreover how were the Taeseong Chemicals executives who promised to support father.
“Taeseong Chemicals executives already received orders to the Middle East construction sites and left long ago to return not demoted but promoted.”
“······So.”
“Former Taeseong Construction executives also came under President Shim.”
“Huu. Certainly the seeds of capable executives immediately deployable dried up.”
President Shim also frowned the brows tightly.
“But only Taeseong Construction and Taeseong Chemicals suffering executive level manpower shortage, looking at Taeseong Group overall not necessarily so.”
“Yes, probably so.”
“Try speaking to Chairman once. If Chairman, no way would quietly watch that appearance······.”
“Said do as know.”
“······Yes?”
President Shim spat an astonishment sound.
“Chairman really said so?”
“Yes.”
“A person so sincere in company work? No, not a person who would make such a decision absolutely?”
“Father publicly announced from the beginning that will take hands off.”
“Yes?”
“A month ago, while handing Taeseong Chemicals to my wife, said tear as much as ability, pull in as much as skill, try growing to the fullest.”
“Ultimately the meaning that Chairman ignores?”
“Also added the words that hunting has to be done outside not in the house corner.”
President Shim dropped his mouth open.
Those words mean, not a bluff of not touching own people and what else.
“Anyway had to purge once to stick my people, so U-gwang giving a pretext like this rather a good matter.”
“Kkeung.”
“Said experience directly and realize how complicated and difficult the money and people and interests attached to business are.”
Father sighed long.
“But as you know, executive level manpower doesn’t fall from the sky with a thud?”
“The meaning that U-gwang’s executives and union who noticed those inside circumstances are acting brazenly and stretching.”
A troublesome situation.
President Shim tightly gripped a fist.
“Certainly someone instigated from behind. Otherwise such inside information······.”
An obvious matter.
So President Shim couldn’t help but swallow the words rising up to the throat and instead sigh long.
“Don’t know what reason Chairman attached the management rights scramble over the head position ten years later, but became a very disadvantageous fight for Young Master Seong-jun.”
President Shim clicked his tongue small.
“Compared to other Young Masters who increased power taking charge of affiliates for over ten years, Young Master Seong-jun took charge of affiliates in earnest only a mere two months or so······.”
“Can’t help. I voluntarily wandered to the Middle East.”
Father requested in a serious voice.
“So I came looking like this today. Please help, President Shim.”
“······What how shall I help?”
“Hope to take charge of Taeseong Chemicals again.”
“Taeseong Chemicals?”
President Shim couldn’t hide a greatly surprised expression.
The more so father’s voice became more earnest.
“Anyway a large vacancy after Taeseong Chemicals executives were extracted and left, U-gwang’s executives are running wild. There even the union.”
“Hmm.”
“Have to integrate the forces divided into two branches in this chaotic situation and lead the company. Desperate for a skilled management team. Please request.”
Father bowed his head.
“If saying have to take the factory people who moved to Taeseong Construction, will send.”
“Young Master.”
“Will also send telegrams to the Taeseong Chemicals executives who left for the Middle East and encourage return.”
“What intending to do with the construction work obtained in the Middle East? Intending to neglect? Said a 100 million dollar large construction?”
President Shim moved only the lips like a goldfish in the troublesome situation.
A troubled face that couldn’t readily accept nor refuse.
* * *
Cut the field of view sharing with the underworld messenger, and raised the head abruptly.
The office people who were watching my eyes pretending to work hard buried their heads deeply at the same time.
Only Oh Jeong-seop who ended up shouldering a lot of work as the price of being disliked by me was muttering curses without caring.
Clap!
I stood up with a whoosh and clapped hands.
“Thinking of making one proposal.”
“What?”
“Let’s go out on group field work today and get off work right away. How?”
“······!”
The office family looked back at me with astonished faces.
An expression of not believing.
“If well early get off work. If better even group company dinner. Call?”
“Please stop the scary sound a bit!”
Eh?
Not the reaction I expected?
“Group field wooooork?”
“Early get ooooff work?”
“Group company dinnnnner?”
Why everyone biting teeth and doing so.
“No, intending to use roughly how much outside.”
“Even if dying from overwork, don’t want to die on the street.”
“Would this be treated as death away from home instead of industrial accident?”
An expression full of distrust.
“This. If don’t like, don’t.”
I shrugged my shoulders.
Yu Jong-tae who is a quick-witted security guard and claims to be my hands and feet asked subtly.
“What is the reason for taking out the proposal of group field work suddenly?”
Oh Jeong-seop who has good guts shouted abruptly.
“By any chance the disadvantage measures received when disobeying the boss’s order, such a thing? Trying to drag to Cheonggye Mountain again?”
The tutor teachers were bewildered.
“Enviable things!”
Again the former Taeseong Group executives’ chant started.
“Someone got dragged to Cheonggye Mountain in the middle of the night and buried alive in bare ground, someone was receiving tutoring class prettily in the house corner?”
“I got teeth pulled with pliers because talked back!”
“Have you been hit with water slap in midwinter? Still bones cold!”
Whether the tutor teachers paled white or not.
The former Taeseong Group executives trembled recalling that day.
“I am a person who even fought head-on with gangsters and forcibly demolished!”
“I have an excavator license? Even if smashed shacks, didn’t know would be buried in a grave site!”
“Almost wrists sliced not enough, about to get fingernails and toenails pulled raw?”
Whether the tutor teachers’ complexions died black or not.
As the former Taeseong Group executives got more excited and tried to shake mouths, I couldn’t help but raise a hand.
“Keep cutting my words? Irritated so shall we gather as a group at Cheonggye Mountain at night 12 o’clock after our work today?”
Yu Jong-tae opened the drawer with a rattle and took out pliers.
“Tongue, pull?”
“Who shaking mouths going out on field work? Can’t gather as a group at Taeseong Hospital emergency room.”
“Teeth, pull?”
“Even if selling gold teeth at the gold and silver room, money not much. Teeth to throw anyway, just pull as raw teeth.”
Only then everyone closed mouths.
I looked back at the office people.
“Let’s go reinforce manpower.”
“······!”
The office family looked back at me at the same time.
A face of not believing.
“Suddenly?”
“Really?”
“Where?”
“To Taeseong Chemicals.”
I grinned.
“Heard the chemicals factory people are holding protests in U-gwang’s name worrying about jobs lest get cut?”
The former Taeseong Construction executives reacted indifferently.
“If U-gwang’s union, unrelated to us······.”
“For reference Taeseong Chemicals where U-gwang union is making a mess is our mother’s company?”
The former Taeseong Construction executives who were indifferent immediately corrected postures and sat.
“Planning to purge the U-gwang executives making trouble as a group.”
“Why us in U-gwang executives purge······.”
“Like this successors about to enter again?”
“······!”
At the sound of ‘successors’ the former Taeseong Construction executives stopped actions as if hit by lightning.
“Everyone would have experienced directly how I pick up the purged executives and use how?”
“······!”
“If those guys fall off, many empty seats will come out in Taeseong Chemicals too?”
“······!”
The former Taeseong Construction executives who understood my meaning opened eyes wide.
“Want to go around doing only alcohol entertainment until retirement? Not hearing the sound of liver rotting, brain melting?”
“Keuheuk!”
“Shouldering work from deputy to manager level, not even hearing flattery sounds getting scolded by sales getting scolded by the president getting scolded every day even if just breathing.”
“Keuheuheuk!”
“Not missing the days of going around playing bet golf receiving flattery every weekend leading subordinates?”
“Missing!”
In the wide open eyes blatant greed began to undulate.
“People who said fought head-on with gangsters and forcibly demolished have no guts to fight head-on with the union and make successors?”
“No way! Boss, I will try!”
Oh Jeong-seop who is the best at guts raised a hand and shouted largely.
“Will go on group field work! Annoying union shit flies, will beat and catch right away!”
“······!”
Only then the office family clearly realized the meaning of ‘group field work’ I said.
“Want to occupy one Taeseong Chemicals executive seat and early get off work in this opportunity!”
Only then seemed to properly recognize even the meaning of the word ‘early get off work’.
“I also have confidence!”
“I roll excavators well! Also use pliers and hammers well!”
“Specialty is shaking teeth! Please entrust the megaphone to me!”
The Taeseong Construction executives flashed eyes like back alley gangsters.
As the executives raised hands one after another and shouted, the tutor teachers also raised hands watching eyes.
“By any chance can we also group field work, early get off work?”
“Of course.”
“We also receive successors?”
“Naturally.”
Even the tutor teachers flashed eyes like back alley kidnappers.
“Let’s go reinforce manpower!”
“Let’s beat and catch the union, catch successors!”
Oh Jeong-seop who has good guts was also fast in action as much as the temper.
Immediately ran to the president’s office and kicked the door with a foot bang.
“President!”
President Shim and father who were discussing the Taeseong Chemicals problem with serious expressions looked back with dumbfounded expressions.
“What?”
“Please entrust the Taeseong Chemicals problem to us!”
