Real Man

Chapter 705

Tap tap tap.

The computer that was rarely used except for printing was finally put to work.

‘He said he was a star at his previous company, and it seems he wasn’t lying.’

Yoo-hyun chuckled as he glanced over his shoulder at the screen that was quickly organized.

Park Won-seok had a lot of experience in the company, but Park Won Young was different.

Her major was public relations, and it was a job that didn’t exist in the old Yu Jae Brick.

It meant that she had to start from scratch.

Yoo-hyun didn’t force her to follow a fixed template, but listened to her story.

She sat on a bench behind the factory and freely expressed her thoughts.

“Why do you think that?”

“First of all, there is no evidence to back it up. If it’s eco-friendly, how eco-friendly is it? How much noise reduction effect does it have? How high is the strength? You can’t easily explain these things.”

This part was also in line with Yoo-hyun’s concerns.

Instead of telling her what he had thought, Yoo-hyun reminded her of the current situation so that she could come up with an idea.

“It’s not completely absent. There are standard specifications, and durability is managed by data.”

“But we can’t emphasize the outstanding parts. Only the people who know, know, right? And they use difficult terms that ordinary people don’t understand.”

“That’s a good approach, but isn’t it a bit hard?”

“Why?”

“There is no official standard that ordinary people can relate to.”

The difference was clear when compared to a phone.

A phone had a spec as a standard, so ordinary people could easily understand the difference in performance, but bricks were hard to explain how much noise reduction effect they had.

Park Won Young tilted her head as she listened.

“Why do we need an official standard?”

“How else would ordinary people know that bricks are good?”

“Brother, aren’t you showing your age too much?”

“What?”

Yoo-hyun was dumbfounded by the words he heard for the first time.

Park Won Young didn’t care and raised her voice.

She spoke to her senior who had 25 years of experience as if she was teaching him.

“These days, it’s the era of emotion, emotion. It has to touch the heart rather than the numbers.”

“What does that mean?”

“Look. Do you see the bird’s nest under the factory roof? It’s built big on the corner of the brick surface.”

“I see it.”

There was a bird’s nest in the part that was repaired with eco-friendly bricks.

Yoo-hyun had known about the existence of the bird’s nest for a long time.

Park Won Young then pointed to the right corner.

“Then what about the small pond decorated with bricks next to the tree? The water is very clear and there are a lot of fish in it.”

“I know. But why?”

“That’s eco-friendly. Because we use eco-friendly bricks, birds and fish live, right?”

“Ah…”

Suddenly, an experiment video that he had seen somewhere flashed through Yoo-hyun’s mind.

It was an experiment of growing onions with tap water, alkaline ion water, and mineral water, and the result was that the onions grew overwhelmingly well in alkaline ion water.

Thanks to that, the rumor was that the alkaline ion water purifier sold much better.

The important thing was not the clear evidence, but the perception of the people.

Was it because Yoo-hyun’s reaction was positive?

Park Won Young’s voice became more confident as a public relations expert.

“It’s the same for strength. If there is no standard, we can just take a hammer and hit it and compare it with other bricks. We can also measure the noise with a meter and make our own standard.”

“But how do you tell them?”

“I’ve done a lot of video editing work. These days, if you upload it on YouTube, it’s all delivered.”

As soon as she heard her idea, Yoo-hyun’s plan was also sorted out.

Clap!

He clapped his hands and stepped forward.

“That’s good. I think it would be nice to make a video of our factory process.”

“Shall we show them how much we care?”

“Right. Our factory has some elements that would surprise the experts. It’s not for nothing that the quality is good.”

Yu Jae Brick had automated, but also customized the equipment to suit each process.

The know-how that had accumulated here was tremendous.

If only he could tell them, the value of Yu Jae Brick would rise much higher.

Park Won Young understood Yoo-hyun’s intention right away.

“That’s great. It would be fun to decorate the video with the characteristics of each process. It would also be good to use it as an introduction material for customers.”

“Then let’s do it right away.”

“That’s good, but there’s something we have to do before that.”

“What is it?”

“We need something like a website to come in after watching the video. That way, we can deliver the detailed numbers, right? But it will take some time to make this.”

Website?

Yoo-hyun had a genius who could make a high-quality website in half a day by his side.

He thought of Na Do-ha and answered right away.

“Don’t worry about that. It’ll be done soon.”

“Really?”

“Of course. What else?”

“We need something like a logo to decorate the video channel, but our company’s logo is…”

There was nothing more to see about the logo.

Yoo-hyun confidently said.

“That’ll be done right away, too.”

“Right away?”

“Yeah. There’s an expert at my house right now.”

Yoo-hyun smiled as he thought of Han Jae Hee.

At that moment.

Han Jae Hee, who had been on a long summer vacation, was rolling around at home.

She didn’t feel like going out to play because she had been so hard at work.

She scratched her ears as she felt a tickle.

“Who’s talking about me? It makes me uneasy.”

As if the words had become seeds, her phone rang.

Ring.

-Han Yoo-hyun: Jae Hee, you finally have a chance to be filial. Let’s work together like we used to. (Attachment)

She snorted as she checked the message.

“Han Yoo-hyun, you must have lost your mind.”

Park Won Young started filming the next day.

She announced it at the morning meeting, so no one looked at her strangely.

She wandered around with a camera and captured the scene.

“Mr. Hong, wait a moment. I’m going to film your work.”

“What are you filming?”

“You’re doing something amazing. I’ll edit it well so that it looks that way.”

Maybe it was because of her bubbly and bright personality, but the employees responded well to her, even though it could have been awkward. They even volunteered their opinions later on.

Mr. Hong Won-jae, who was in front of the camera, placed two bricks on the floor and sprayed them with a mist.

Chik-chik.

“Real loess bricks absorb water as soon as you spray them. Look at this.”

“You’re right. Our bricks absorb it completely.”

“This proves that they can control the humidity well. You can also smell the earthy scent of nature here. Do you want to try?”

“Mm, it’s nice. Mr. Han, why don’t you come and smell it too?”

Yoo-hyun took the brick that Park Won-young offered and sniffed it. It was clearly different from the other brick.

“Yeah, it smells different.”

“Okay. The angle is good, so let’s spice up the commentary a bit. Mr. Hong, come closer too.”

“Huh?”

“Huh?”

Park Won-young spoke to Yoo-hyun and Mr. Hong Won-jae, who looked flustered.

“The camera is still rolling. Come on, show off our company a bit.”

“…”

Yoo-hyun blinked his eyes and turned his head, only to see Mr. Hong Won-jae holding out his palm.

“Yu-jae Bricks, five stars!”

“Yu-jae Bricks, perfect! Just perfect!”

Yoo-hyun flicked his finger in annoyance.

Suddenly, Mr. Kim Sung-ho joined them from behind.

“Our bricks. They’re great for men, but I don’t know how to express it.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“Puhahaha!”

The laughter of the three people was captured by the camera.

Park Won-young was working hard on making a promotional video.

Meanwhile, Park Won-seok finished the first round of organizing the internal data.

Yoo-hyun checked the content and exclaimed.

“Wow, you did it fast.”

“Mr. Ahn was so meticulous in collecting the data, so I just moved it. I didn’t do much.”

“What are you talking about? Mr. Ahn praised you a lot for being smart, didn’t he?”

“He was just saying that. Oh, Yoo-hyun, I also looked at the article you sent me yesterday.”

Park Won-seok changed the topic and held out his hand.

Yoo-hyun recalled the article about eco-friendly village construction and asked.

“How was it?”

“When I saw that Ami Construction was the frontrunner, it looked different. I think I know why they want to invest in our factory.”

“Why do they want to invest?”

“To get more supplies at a cheaper price. They’ll take as much as they invest. Of course, that’s assuming everything is normal.”

“What if it’s not normal?”

“They’ll delay the start of the construction. They might drag it out without paying the money. They might even try to take over our company by cutting off our funding.”

Park Won-seok pointed out the core issue without knowing the exact situation.

He had a lot of experience working in other companies, and it showed in his answer.

Maybe he had gone through something similar?

Yoo-hyun wanted to hear his thoughts and asked further.

“Then what should we do?”

“We need to secure funds. That’s why Mr. Ahn went to look for government subsidies, right?”

“That’s right.”

“Hmm… Yoo-hyun, there was a designer named Andrea Gurski in the article you sent me.”

Park Won-seok brought up an unexpected name after thinking for a while.

“Yeah. Why?”

“Is there any way to contact him?”

“What do you want to contact him for?”

“He’s the decision-maker for the large-scale eco-village project. If we persuade him well, we’ll get more support, and Ami Construction won’t be able to mess with us.”

Park Won-seok had a similar opinion to what Yoo-hyun had thought before.

That made him more curious.

“How do you plan to persuade him?”

“Well, maybe we can show him our bricks?”

“That won’t be easy to persuade him with. And we don’t even have his contact.”

“Did you try? I couldn’t find it anywhere, how did you get it?”

“I just searched and confirmed his email address.”

Yoo-hyun had already sent several emails to Andrea Gurski.

He wanted to introduce the company’s production process if possible.

If he was a brick enthusiast, he would surely be interested.

But there was no reply.

He could have been busy, or his email could have changed, but Yoo-hyun decided not to be too obsessed.

He didn’t need to rely on luck or chance when there were plenty of ways to do it.

Park Won-seok asked.

“Yoo-hyun, should I look into some companies?”

“Companies?”

“Yeah. Jun-seok’s company is also very interested in our bricks. So are the other client construction companies.”

“Why is that?”

“Maybe we can collaborate with multiple companies if things go wrong with Ami Construction.”

Park Won-seok approached the backup plan that Yoo-hyun hadn’t mentioned.

From their conversation, he could tell that Park Won-seok was good at thinking on his feet.

“That’s a good idea. Go ahead and check it out.”

“Okay. I guess I have to hit the pavement from now on.”

Park Won-seok rolled up his sleeves after finding the right clothes.

A few days later, Park Won-young’s work was uploaded to a video site.

Han Jae-hee shook his shoulders as he watched the edited video at home.

“Haha! What is this? The uncles are so funny. But why are you in it?”

“I’m doing my part too.”

“What are you talking about? Huh? There’s a video thumbnail with your face on it.”

“It must have been picked automatically, I guess.”

“No way. Won-young must have put it up on purpose.”

“When did you become Won-young?”

Yoo-hyun asked incredulously, and Han Jae-hee glared at him.

“When did you make me work with him, and you forgot already?”

“It was just a brief encounter, you sound too friendly.”

“What does that matter? You said you’d be my sister, and that’s it. He didn’t even have a conscience like someone else. He knows how to be grateful.”

“Hey, I said thank you too.”

“Thanks to your generous brother, I had to work at the factory without resting during my hard-earned vacation. And you think that’s enough with a thank you?”

He had done quite a lot of work, but he only went to the factory for one day.
