“Ouch, hot!”
The current head of strategic planning at Onyu Pharmaceuticals, Ji Eun Jae, had unintentionally gulped down hot tea while staring intently at the person sitting in front of her.
The person across from Ji Eun was none other than Lee Kang Hyun, the executive director of the strategic planning department at C&C Global.
He was currently turning on his laptop to share some documents with Ji Eun.
Two days ago, she was surprised when the director of C&C suddenly contacted her.
She expected it to be about an investment matter, but didn’t anticipate that he would come so quickly to show her something.
Though they had talked about a month’s preparation, she knew that a month was woefully short for preparation.
The one-month timeframe was practically the same as saying ‘we won’t renew the contract.’
Ji Eun knew this when she said it.
And she demanded a project leader change because she didn’t want to give Cha Min Woo even that impossible short time.
“Thank you for your precious time, Director. And I apologize for contacting you suddenly.”
Kang Hyun smiled warmly, seeking Ji Eun’s understanding.
Ji Eun knew about Lee Kang Hyun.
Anyone in the industry would recognize the name of this notable corporate executive.
His company and his numerous awards were the talk of the industry.
Originally an engineer, he focused on the design of the products after founding his company.
His products, with their unique, simple yet sophisticated designs, quickly became a hit with the millennial generation.
Additionally, over five years, he won several international design awards.
Not stopping there, he systematically developed patented technologies, making his company’s products a trendsetter in the market, generating significant revenue.
Though not a large corporation, his company became famous for its technology, innovative ideas, dynamic drive, and novel management approach.
‘It was revolutionary when they included a process where regular employees interview executive candidates. A real talent.’
In a survey among university students, his company outranked major corporations to become the most desired place to work.
However, at the peak of the company’s success, he hired professional executives for management, believing he wasn’t yet ready to handle business management himself and stepped back from the company’s operations.
Then, he was immediately scouted by C&C.
Onyu Pharmaceuticals was also discussing his recruitment for their new cosmetics business, but Chairman Cha Seung Jo of C&C was quicker.
“Aren’t his experiences too limited?”
“Even if it’s a new venture, it’s better to recruit executives directly from related fields.”
“He’s still just a greenhorn…”
Ji Eun had been running around convincing executives to recruit Kang Hyun, but being a pharmaceutical company, there were still many conservative aspects, and ultimately, they missed the timing and opportunity, leading to the failure of his recruitment.
Seeing him now in front of her, Ji Eun felt a tinge of happiness.
Feeling Ji Eun’s gaze on him, Kang Hyun looked up and met her eyes.
“Shall we begin, Director?”
“Yes, please go ahead.”
As Kang Hyun turned on his laptop, a large monitor lit up with the presentation.
“I requested this meeting today, as you might expect, to discuss the investment matter Onyu Pharmaceuticals is working on. I have some data to show you, and the most important part of our discussion will be about the direction.”
Kang Hyun continued calmly.
“When I heard about the one-month period you mentioned, I understood that Onyu Pharmaceuticals no longer intended to extend the contract. Is my understanding correct?”
Ji Eun felt a sting but tried not to show it, smiling faintly. However, she couldn’t hide the slight tremor in her lips.
“I regret that you thought so, Executive Director Lee Kang Hyun.”
“Yes, that’s how I felt. Changing the person in charge and expecting to attract investment with a new strategy within a month is nearly impossible.”
“Well, if that’s what C&C says, there’s nothing we can do.”
“I’ve compiled all the data I know and reviewed everything. It was nearly impossible, but not without a method.”
As Kang Hyun started his presentation, his eyes changed.
“I can’t show you a perfect plan today. If I said I had a perfect plan for you, it would be 100% bluff. Today, I will show you the direction we can take. And if Onyu Pharmaceuticals is more curious about my proposal, we can proceed to the next step.”
Ji Eun readily agreed.
“That sounds good.”
“I focused very clearly on ‘profit’ as the outcome of Onyu Pharmaceuticals’ investment. Let me show you these indicators.”
Kang Hyun’s presentation went on for a full hour.
An hour later, after listening to Kang Hyun’s presentation, Ji Eun fell silent in thought.
She clearly understood why Chairman Cha Seung Jo, leaving his own children aside, placed an external talent like Lee Kang Hyun in the strategic planning department, a core team of C&C Global.
Ji Eun was completely immersed in his presentation and content.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
