With the Time Shop, I Too Am the Greatest Conglomerate of All Time

Episode 95. Last day of IFA.

Jerry’s face wrinkled at Jae-woon’s words.

“..You want to stand in line over there?”

“Hmm..I’m a little busy, and I can also write articles about this D-Tab…”

“Sorry, but a third of those standing there are from the press.”

It was as Jaune said.

Reporters from influential British daily newspapers such as the Financial Times and The Guardian were looking at Jerry with sharp eyes, saying, ‘Don’t do any tricks, line up.’

“Wow.”

Reluctantly, Jerry went to the very end and stood in line.

30 minutes later.

“Ah-oh! I just had to go a little bit further.”

Jerry clenched his fists with a very sad expression on his face.

He glanced around, and quietly took his hand to the restart button.

“There are a lot of people waiting behind you.”

I immediately lowered my hand at the blunt voice I heard from behind.

After forcing his hand away from the D-Tab.

Jerry said to Jaewoon.

“The change of an interface from a keyboard to a touch screen makes such a difference. If it was played with a keyboard or mouse, it would have been just an ordinary game, but it can’t be that fun because it meets the UI called touch.”

“This is a game that was created with that in mind from the beginning. If we were going to use it for a UI other than touch, we would have created a game that played in a different way.”

“..I mean, it wasn’t an accidental result.”

“That’s right. Everything was planned from start to finish. I was convinced that this touch UI could give people new pleasure.”

“I’m sure… that’s right. I think I can understand why you said “belief in the future” as a hint earlier. Did you mean that you were confident that people would like the technology you created, and that you continued to push forward the development plan based on that conviction?”

“Well, I can’t say I’m wrong. You did well.”

Jerry’s face brightened, thinking he had finally figured out the answer.

“Is it like that too? I’m usually good at guessing. haha.”

“Then, are you good at writing articles?”

“Sure. You made such an innovative product, and I will let the world know about it.”

“haha. thank you.”

“no. In fact, D-Tab will be known to everyone in the world even if I don’t make it an article. A good product will eventually be recognized by people.”

“yes. So thank you for today’s interview. I’ll have to go read the article on the Iman D-Tab.”

# The last day of IFA for 4 days.

Gowon Group Vice Chairman Jin Seon-ho visited the LCD TV booth.

“CEO Kang!”

“Vice President. Are you here?”

“okay. I expected it to be like this, but it’s really amazing. It feels like everyone around here has flocked to our booth.”

“haha. It wasn’t that much, but there were a lot more people than I expected. I talked so much that I can’t even speak properly because my throat is hoarse.”

“It was really hard work. With this level of interest, as long as there are no problems with production, there is no choice but to succeed. Now all that remains is to produce well.”

“That’s right. After IFA is over, I plan to check the status of the production line once again. And, as a reminder, if the production volume is too low, you may need to increase the line. Then please support me.”

“Don’t worry about that. I’ll give you any money, so just make things well.”

Vice Chairman Jin asked with a soft face.

“Then why didn’t you tell me?”

“yes? What do you mean?”

“It means that Damoye also introduced a new product to IFA. I saw earlier that everyone gathered and stood in line for more than 100 meters at the booth. When I heard the explanation, was it D-Tab? It was a laptop-like product, but people were very interested in it.”

This yangban has been meticulously checking everything before coming.

“Sometimes it was decided all of a sudden, and it was a secret weapon. That’s why it’s a bit difficult to tell people who aren’t affiliated with the company.”

Vice-Chairman Jin made an expression of disappointment.

“her. not an official Do we have one or two business entanglements? Is it okay if I tell you that much?”

“haha. Didn’t the Vice-President say that at the beginning? You will treat me thoroughly as a partner. I also think of you as a good partner. But even if he’s a good deal, he doesn’t play every hand. Isn’t this a place where you never know when enemies will be friends and friends will become enemies?”

Vice Chairman Jin could not deny my words.

“..to be thorough. Anyway, that D-Tab thing. The more I look at it, the more interesting it gets. Indeed, it is a technique that CEO Kang has kept secret. It’s all stuff from the headquarters’ security area, right?”

“Do you have a separate D-Tab assembly line?”

“no. I was about to choose an outsourced company after seeing some reactions from IFA.”

“It’s fine. Then, can we entrust the assembly of D-Tab to Kowon Electronics?”

“..don’t Kowon Electronics have all of their assembly lines in Korea? Because of the labor cost, it must be difficult to properly match the unit price compared to foreign companies.”

“I will give you the lowest price unconditionally.”

“..Is there any reason why you are in charge of assembling the D-Tab like that? The assembly line itself does not require much technical skills, so unlike the case of the drill CPU, there will be no advertising effect.”

“I don’t want to take over because of the advertising effect. Because the domestic economy is not good right now, the number of laptops and desktop PCs has decreased a lot. Thanks to this, the assembly line on the computer division’s side is playing, and the more you tease it, the bigger the damage. Because I can’t afford not to pay my salary just because I play. In such a case, if we take charge of the external assembly quantity, we can reduce the deficit a lot, so I am proposing it.”

Come to think of it, few of the businesses that Kowon Electronics had were working properly.

However, the mobile phone division is the best.

It must be in a state where it is barely in a deficit.

I thought, ‘It was natural for the company to go bankrupt.’

“If that’s the case… that’s fine. We will leave the D-Tab supply to Ko Won Electronics.”

“thank you! Representative Kang.”

“What. I’m happy to give you the lowest price.”

“haha. is it? Anyway, this is another business entangled. Please.”

It seems that you are quite satisfied with taking on one thing that is not very profitable.

Do you have any other plans?

I looked again to see if there was anything I missed.

No matter how much I thought about it, it was a business proposal that I could not lose.

‘Are you doing this just to be nice to me? I don’t know English.’

#JinSunho finished the conversation with Jaewoon about D-Tab assembly and left the booth.

‘I was a little nervous about the TV business and the foundry, but it turned out well. Since I’ve been in charge of the D-Tab, even CEO Kang won’t be able to easily throw away Kowon Electronics.’

He approached Lee Woo-kyung, who was watching the LCD TV booth from a distance.

“haha. Did you say that CEO Kang will do well? To exaggerate a little, it seems that a third of the audience is concentrated in our booth.”

Lee Woo-kyung nodded.

“okay. I had a premonition from the time the Wardo TV sample came out, but that guy did it in the end.”

“And another third seems to be all gathered in the booth. I came to see the booth over there, and there was only 100 meters in line. I have been to this electronics exhibition many times, but this is the first time I have seen such a sight.”

“..I am also a bastard. What the hell did you make?”

“The D-Tab is a laptop-like product that does not have a keyboard and can be used by recognizing it by placing your finger on the screen instead. It was very popular with the audience.”

“Well. It sounds strange, but are people that interested in it?”

“You go and see it, too. To be honest, I like the old way better because I am an older generation.”

“haha. But what about you? Still, I think I should come and see it at least once that Kang Jae-woon made it.”

“yes. By the way, I really didn’t know that the moment would come when I felt sorry for Cheung and RG. It would have cost hundreds of millions of won just to rent that spacious booth, but because of us, there are very few visitors.”

Lee Woo-kyung also nodded with a shocked face.

“I have never seen such a sight in my lifetime. Even if I die now, I have no time to spare. It’s just a pity that you’re not here.”

When the story of Chairman Jin Byung-wook, who was relying on a ventilator in his hospital bed, came out, the atmosphere became somber.

“..that’s it. It’s a scene that my father had dreamed of so much, but in the end he couldn’t see it. Even if you’re conscious, I’ll show you a picture…”

At that moment, Jin Seon-ho’s cell phone rang.

“President. The former president’s condition suddenly got worse this morning. According to the hospital director, it is impossible to guarantee whether he will be able to survive the day.”

“..okay. Let me go home right now.”

Jin Seon-ho looked at Lee Woo-kyung with a firm face.

“mister. My father is in critical condition now.”

“What? your brother?”

“yes. I think I’ll have to go back right now, what will you do?”

“Of course I have to go too.”

“Then let’s go together.”

Gowon Sungui Hospital VIP room.

As soon as the door to the hospital room opened, Jin Seon-ho screamed and ran in.

“father!”

All the brothers had already gathered there.

Second, Jin Chang-ho said with a frown.

“What the hell are you doing? I don’t know when my father will die, but will he show up now?”

Lee Woo-kyung, who followed Jin Seon-ho, answered instead.

“It’s a window. Seonho, as soon as I heard the news, I flew straight from Germany. I’m sorry, but please understand. It’s right in front of my brother, but you can’t see the friendship between them, but it’s a bit like showing a fight.”

Although his face was still displeased, Jin Chang-ho did not open his mouth any more.

Jin Seon-ho beats the medical staff surrounding the bed.

He caressed his father’s face.

“father. I did it! I pressed the cheers and RG that I had always longed for on the TV. So, open your eyes quickly. I brought pictures.”

Jin Seon-ho took out a picture of a large number of spectators in the Kowon Electronics TV booth.

He waved it in front of his father.

Then, surprisingly, the corner of the mouth of the former president Jin Byung-wook, who was unconscious and unable to open his eyes, rose slightly.

belt….

At that moment, the monitor graph that checks the heart rate drew a straight line.

The doctor in charge opened his mouth with a heavy face.

“..you are doomed.”

Jin Seon-ho cried bitterly and hugged his father.

“father!!”

Starting with his crying, the hospital room soon became a sea of ​​weeping.

Each media outlet in Korea featured the news of the passing of Chairman Jin Byung-wook of the Gowon Group.

Condolences from various celebrities including the Chief of Staff of the President followed.

Chang-ho Jin, the second, took the place of his older brother, who was hospitalized due to his weakness.

Jin Chang-ho, who was saying thank you to the mourners who went out after giving a wreath, found a man in his early twenties who did not suit this position and asked the chief of staff next to him.

“I think there is a face I’m seeing for the first time. Are you properly controlling the mourners at the front door? I told you to send ordinary mourners elsewhere.”

“I am not an ordinary person. Kang Jae-woon, the person who is thought to have moved the chairman of the Fair Trade Commission Lee Yeon-ho during the investigation of car rigging, is that man.”
