Real Man-Chapter 464:

The conversation that started with Paul Graham lasted for a long time.

Since it was not over yet, Yoo-hyun kept mentioning the future that JK Communications would change and stimulated his curiosity.

The conversation ended only after they arranged the date of Paul Graham’s visit.

Beep.

Yoo-hyun got up from his seat and greeted him politely.

“It’s an honor to work with you.”

“You talk as if it’s already done. Well, I don’t mind. You remind me of myself when I was young.”

“That’s the best compliment I’ve ever heard.”

“What? Hahaha. You’re funny.”

Paul Graham extended his hand with a pleasant smile.

Yoo-hyun shook his hand without hesitation and concluded the successful negotiation.

He made his imagination a reality.

He finally achieved what he had been working hard for a long time.

That fact made his heart beat fast.

Thump thump.

Yoo-hyun walked out of the building and picked up his phone with a happy heart.

The person he called was the one who would be most eager to hear this news.

It was Executive Director Shin Kyung-wook.

"Director, I just finished talking with Paul Graham.

-I can tell by your voice how it went.

“Yes. I passed the first gate.”

He tried to answer calmly, but his voice was mixed with laughter.

He felt like he was calling his father to tell him his good test scores when he was young.

Executive Director Shin Kyung-wook, who calmed down his excitement, answered with a composed voice.

-You did a great job. I have to work harder too.

“We’ll do our best to finish it well.”

-I want to finish it soon and have some kongguksu with you. I’m craving for it today.

Yoo-hyun recalled the leisure at the comic cafe and said earnestly.

“This time, I’m going to ask the part-timer to put a whole boiled egg on top of mine.”

-Okay. I’ll make sure to take care of that part.

“Thank you. It’s as good as passing the first gate.”

-Haha. Yeah. I feel rewarded for once.

Executive Director Shin Kyung-wook finally burst into laughter at Yoo-hyun’s witty remark.

While Yoo-hyun was having a pleasant conversation with Executive Director Shin Kyung-wook,

Section Chief Park Seung-woo and Assistant Manager Choi Kyu-tae were waiting at the entrance of the BCG building on the first floor.

They couldn’t even enter the customer reception room without a reservation, so they had to stand in the corner of the entrance.

They were about to be pushed out of that space by a man who was the customer management director.

“You can’t get in unless you tell me in advance.”

“We’ll only be here for a little while. We’re contacting our side.”

The customer management director asked coldly to Assistant Manager Choi Kyu-tae, who was asking for understanding.

“Who are you meeting?”

He couldn’t answer that question right now.

When Assistant Manager Choi Kyu-tae was at a loss,

Section Chief Park Seung-woo shouted out without hesitation.

He simply thought that Paul Graham would have contacted the chairman or the president, and that gave him confidence in his words.

“The president.”

“Huh?”

“What? Huh, these people are funny. Is our president your friend? Huh?”

Assistant Manager Choi Kyu-tae blinked his eyes in disbelief, and the customer management director growled.

A man with neatly combed white hair came up with the security guard who had asked for his identity a while ago and said.

“Peter, he’s right. He’s my friend.”

“Huh. Pr, president.”

“Please come in. We’ve prepared a seat for you inside.”

Park Seung-woo and Choi Kyu-tae looked stunned at his very polite attitude.

Things went smoothly.

It was because of Paul Graham’s request that the BCG chairman and president moved.

The BCG staff ran around and worked hard, and Park Seung-woo and Choi Kyu-tae also did their best to achieve their goals.

They couldn’t even get into the hotel room they had reserved.

Yoo-hyun, who was preparing for the next step in Hyun Jin-gun’s office, heard the progress from Park Seung-woo’s message.

-Park Seung-woo mentor: It’s easy and nice to have high-level people help. (Pleased)

-It must not be easy, right?

-Park Seung-woo mentor: I’m your mentor. This is a piece of cake for me. Don’t worry about here and do your job well. (Smug)

-You’re amazing as always. I’ll contact you when it’s over.

He could see that he was having a hard time without seeing him, but Park Seung-woo showed his composure.

Yoo-hyun chuckled at the lively senior’s appearance, and Hyun Jin-gun, who was sitting across the outdoor terrace table, asked.

“You look happy.”

“I’m happy. Today will be a historic day for JK Communications.”

“A historic day.”

Hyun Jin-gun, who was lost in thought for a moment, looked at the new logo of JK Communications that Yoo-hyun showed him on the table.

It was a logo that Han Jae-hee made a while ago, and the letters JK written clearly under the antenna signal caught his eye.

“Wouldn’t it be nice to stick this logo on the wall of a big building?”

Hyun Jin-gun stuck out his tongue at Yoo-hyun, who said that.

“Really, I can’t keep up with the speed of your work.”

“It’s because you’re doing well.”

“Doing well? I haven’t even seen the results yet.”

“Why not? Aren’t you going to make them?”

“Very burdensome and nice.”

Hyun Jin-gun answered with a hollow laugh.

Squeak.

A white luxury car stopped in front of the building, and at the same time, Yoo-hyun got up.

“Get up. The guest of honor is here.”

“Can I do this?”

“Of course. You’ve already been there for a preliminary survey. You just have to say what you think.”

Yoo-hyun patted his friend’s shoulder, who looked nervous for once.

Yoo-hyun’s words were not baseless confidence.

The communication chip development idea that Hyun Jin-gun patented in the past was powerful enough to make a small company the center of the 5G communication market.

Although the timing was much earlier than then, the idea was the same.

He didn’t need to mention this part.

It was enough to see his genius by looking at the chip he made by himself and the progress of the 4G chip he was making.

There was no way Paul Graham wouldn’t know his value, which Yoo-hyun found out in a big way.

Yoo-hyun’s conviction became a reality in the office on the second floor of the building at 1601 Palo Alto.

“All devices will be connected by communication in the future, and this will cause a great revolution. The key point is…”

Hyun Jin-gun freely listed his thoughts in front of Paul Graham.

His words were so specific that they seemed to unfold the future before his eyes, and they stimulated Paul Graham’s curiosity.

“About the part you just mentioned…”

“The communication chip will be integrated with the AP, and…”

“Not a bad idea.”

Paul Graham, who had been exchanging questions and answers endlessly, finally nodded.

He was known for coldly evaluating the value of companies, and if he said that much, it was almost the same as the game was over.

Yoo-hyun, who was watching him from a distance, lifted a tray with a satisfied smile.

It was time to stamp the final seal.

Thud.

He put the tray on the table and handed a coffee cup to Paul Graham.

“Let’s have a cup of coffee and talk.”

“You look good as a coffee delivery.”

“Of course. This is what I do in this company.”

Yoo-hyun handed him a small plate as well, and Paul Graham’s eyebrows twitched.

The white coffee cup with his name on it, the espresso with a strong aroma inside, and the salt on the small plate perfectly reflected his taste.

He sprinkled some salt and tasted the coffee, and his lips curled up.

“Pretty good. You could open a coffee shop later.”

“Yes. I’m planning to push out the Qualcomm building and make the whole first floor a JK coffee shop.”

“What? Hahaha. You have a good ambition.”

“Shouldn’t I do that much to walk around Silicon Valley with confidence?”

It was a light-hearted remark with some bluff, but it contained a bold vision of surpassing Qualcomm’s position.

This also reflected Paul Graham’s taste, who liked to draw clear goals.

“That’s right. You have to do that much.”

He shrugged his shoulders and raised one corner of his mouth and eyebrow, looking at Yoo-hyun and Hyun Jin-gun alternately.

He felt confident that they could make the somewhat unrealistic future a reality.

He made up his mind and recited the support plan that he had already figured out through the survey team.

“You’ll need some talent to make your coffee shop dream come true, right?”

“Yes. That’s right. I want to borrow the name of Y Combinator for that.”

Yoo-hyun immediately caught his words and changed his expression to serious, and Paul Graham asked Hyun Jin-gun.

“What do you think as the founder?”

“I’ll gladly accept it if you help me.”

“You’re interesting as a founder. Usually, people beg me to help them.”

“I’m confident that I can make it with my friend.”

Hyun Jin-gun calmly conveyed his intention without showing any signs of nervousness, and Paul Graham chuckled.

“Huh, this is something. It’ll be fun from now on.”

At the same time, both corners of his mouth rose up.

Thirty minutes later, Y Combinator’s final investment decision was approved.

Paul Graham accepted the gift that Yoo-hyun gave him.

This meant the same as the BCG support, which was a precondition that Yoo-hyun had set.

Thanks to the preparation, the conversion work within BCG was almost finished.

He could avoid the temporary shareholders’ meeting, but Yoo-hyun had no intention of doing that.

The timing to turn the tables had to be on the day of the temporary shareholders’ meeting.

That way, he could deal a decisive blow to Shin Kyung-soo, who was cautious.

Yoo-hyun left his thoughts on the group chat.

-Please wait a little longer while maintaining security. I’ll decide when to announce it.

-Park Seung-woo mentor: Okay. We’re not going out and having fun here, so don’t worry. I’ve also told the staff. (Laugh)

-Choi Kyu-tae assistant manager: I got it…

Assistant Manager Choi Kyu-tae’s short message and three dots felt meaningful, but it was not Yoo-hyun’s concern.

He put his phone in his pocket and thought of his old boss who had been with him for a long time.

What would Shin Kyung-soo’s face look like when he saw the cards that Yoo-hyun had pulled out?

He had no choice but to be flustered, no matter how strong he was.

Yoo-hyun imagined his distorted face and lifted the corners of his mouth.

While Yoo-hyun was preparing for a counterattack,

The news that he had been waiting for came up one after another as the temporary shareholders’ meeting approached.

Elliott, who had been quiet for a while, moved, and one of the agenda items was to replace the representative director.

The media was noisy about this unusual event, and the news was widely shared within the company.

The atmosphere in the smoking room on the first floor of Hansung Tower was similar.

A man who bit a cigarette asked the man next to him.

“Is the president really going to change like this?”

“He might.”

“Wow, they’re going to fire the chairman’s brother. Then who’s going to be the president?”

“Whether it’s by skill or bloodline, isn’t it the home appliance business director?”

“The direct line is stepping down and the collateral line is taking over. Awesome.”

The man who was surprised by the answer pretended to know and said.

“What does it matter who goes up? We get paid the same and do the same work.”

“True. It has nothing to do with me. Oh, by the way. The karaoke place I went to yesterday…”

“What? Hahaha.”

The man who shook off his thoughts brought up the story of the dinner, and the man who listened laughed.

Maybe they didn’t know that the result of this temporary shareholders’ meeting could change the fate of the company.

Not only them, but most of the employees thought the news of the temporary shareholders’ meeting was just gossip.
