Real Man

Chapter 387:

Byun Dong-hoon, who stuck out his tongue, asked Yoo-hyun.

Hows the audit report? You must have been busy helping with this.

Im afraid I dont have much time to sort out the contents that came in.

Well, there are so many pages and things to describe, it must be hard.

I have to do it no matter what. If I do well, Ill get proper recognition from Director Yeon Jin-seop, wont I?

Yoo-hyuns eyes sparkled and Byun Dong-hoon quickly joined in.

He put his hand on Yoo-hyuns shoulder and nodded.

It wont be easy, but hang in there a little longer.

Yes. Ill do my best until the end.

He cheered on Yoo-hyun as if they were on the same side.

It was very effective to make him feel that way, even consciously.

When they moved to the Mokpo factory to evaluate the final product, he would help in any way he could.

Byun Dong-hoon exchanged a warm handshake with Yoo-hyun and got on the van.

Min Dal-gi, who was watching the situation, approached Yoo-hyun and asked.

Didnt you say you already finished the audit report?

Shh. Dont let the audit team hear you.

Oh dear. I shouldnt have said that. I just wanted to finish it quickly.

Dont worry. Ill send it to you at the right time when youre at the Mokpo factory.

The audit report included the final summary of the work done.

It was absurd to say that he had finished it as soon as the work was done.

He had to wait at least a little bit to erase any doubts.

I understand perfectly what you mean. I appreciate it.

Yes. Please finish it well.

Just trust me on that. Haha.

Min Dal-gi, who had been tense all day from concentrating, gave a refreshing laugh.

He was in such a good mood that he bounced up and down as he got on the truck.

Ma Jong-hyun, the team leader, also followed him with a shoulder dance.

It was their job to hand over the completed reassembled product to the final inspection team.

They looked so excited that they probably wouldnt collapse until then.

Ma Jong-hyun and Min Dal-gi werent the only ones who were happy.

All the team members who had worked hard together felt a hot sense of accomplishment.

Good job.

Good job.

They hugged each other with expressions of emotion and greeted each other.

They looked like they had just finished a long march in the army.

Swoosh.

Yoo-hyun handed a can of beer to Jo Gi-jeong, who was sitting on a bench.

Why dont you join us, sir? Youre the hero of the day.

Me? What? Im leaving soon.

Haha. You said you gave up yesterday.

Hey. I knew I could do it.

Yoo-hyun smiled and opened the cold can of beer.

Fizz.

The foam rose quickly and spilled over because of the shaking.

Kang Jong-ho, who came next to him, threw a word at him.

You opened the beer too early. Thats when things go wrong.

Hey. Dont jinx it.

Gulp. You dont think your words will come true, do you?

No way.

Yoo-hyun laughed and handed him a can of beer.

At that moment. Mokpo factory situation room.

The atmosphere changed drastically when they heard that the car had left the Mokpo factory.

The factory manager laughed out loud in front of Kwon Sung-hoe, who was stiffened up.

Hahaha. I knew you could do it. I knew you could do it.

The factory manager taunted Kwon Sung-hoe with his mood.

As you said, we might be able to surpass Busan and become the best work team.

This is a factory that manipulated even the situation board numbers. The work details are unbelievable too.

Kwon Sung-hoe said one word and Park Seung-gyun, the audit team leader, intervened.

We introduced an electronic situation board for the first time and it seems like we didnt manage it well. But this is not an audit subject.

Enough. Shut up.

Yes. Im sorry.

Park Seung-gyun bowed his head at Kwon Sung-hoes words.

It was when the air in the hall was filled with awkwardness.

Creak.

A subordinate from the group strategy room opened the situation room door and whispered to Director Kwon Sung-hui.

Team leader. The internet line going into Yeontae-ri factory is

Okay. Proceed right away.

Director Kwon Sung-hui, who had sent away his subordinate, twisted his stiff mouth.

Lets see if I can pull this off.

4:20 p.m.

The news came that a truck had arrived at Mokpo factory.

Lets wrap this up.

Yoo-hyun, who had been relaxing, took out his laptop to finish the situation.

Click.

A 52-page audit report popped up when he pressed the button.

Yoo-hyun attached the photo of the truck loaded with cargo and the situation board to the last page.

Scroll.

Then he scrolled the mouse wheel to check the entire content again.

The work details were all written in a descriptive way that matched the cause and effect.

The problems and countermeasures for each item were well organized.

The time table was also detailed.

Of course, he also reflected the audit teams opinion.

There was no problem with passing this level.

What expression would Director Kwon Sung-hui make when he received this report?

His mouth must be dry.

It would be a relief if his mouth was just dry.

Unfortunately, there was a high possibility that he would have to give up his team leader position.

Thats how much this audit was pushed hard.

Click.

Yoo-hyun opened an internet window with a good mood.

Huh? Why is it like this?

But the internet was down.

It was the same even when he changed the settings quickly.

Click. Click.

Yoo-hyun felt a chill as he picked up his laptop and looked for the next room.

It was the room of the person who came to mind whenever there was a problem with electronic devices.

Bang bang bang bang.

Jo Joo-im.

What? Whats up?

Jo Ki-jung, who had a fluffy head, opened the door.

He wanted to rest well, but that wasnt important right now.

Is the internet working?

Internet? It should be. Wait a minute.

Jo Ki-jung fiddled with his laptop and tilted his head.

Huh? Why is it like this?

Whats wrong? Why isnt it working?

Well. It seems like its completely cut off. Internet later, gasp. You didnt send an email, did you?

Yes. We need to come up with a plan quickly.

Yoo-hyun nodded and Jo Ki-jung grabbed his jumper hastily.

What are you doing? Lets go to the factory.

The internet in the factory lounge was no different.

It was as if someone had targeted it and cut off all the internet.

While Jo Ki-jung was checking, Yoo-hyun contacted various places in the village.

As time passed, Yoo-hyuns expression became more and more serious.

Geez. Im going crazy. Theres no place in the village where the internet works.

Damn. Theres only 30 minutes left. What do we do?

Min Dal-gis phone kept ringing.

Yoo-hyun ignored his ringing cell phone and thought hard.

Yoo-hyun had a flash of inspiration and said.

Ah. Jo Joo-im, you have internet on your phone, right?

This? But Ive never sent a large file before.

Jo Ki-jung shook his Colorphone 2 and answered.

Now was the time to move if there was a little chance.

Yoo-hyun took out the file with USB and handed it to him.

Please try it once.

What are you going to do?

Ill look for some other phones too.

He had to use another network since the internet network was cut off.

The only thing on Yoo-hyuns mind was his phone.

His phone meant Choi Jeong Bok.

Yoo-hyun grabbed his laptop and an extra USB and got on his bike parked in front of the construction site.

The front of the site was quiet, but Yoo-hyun was in a hurry.

Squeak.

Yoo-hyun sped up and called Choi Jeong Bok on his earphones.

Brother. I have to send the file right now. Please get ready an Apple phone or an Ilsung smartphone.

-Okay. Thats not a problem, but I dont know if the file conversion will work.

Ill be there soon.

Yoo-hyun was about to hang up when Choi Jeong Bok threw him a curveball.

-Hey, kid, we have a modem at our house. Try that too.

Does the phone line work when the whole neighborhoods internet is down?

-The lines are different, so it might work. I checked it a few years ago just in case.

Why did he check that?

The modem had been discontinued for over ten years.

With no time to ask more questions, Yoo-hyun pedaled hard.

Time left: 20 minutes.

He felt a chill down his spine for the first time in a while.

Yoo-hyun handed over his laptop to Choi Jeong Boks phone store and went straight to his house.

Before he could ring the bell, the door opened and his wife appeared.

Sir, welcome. I turned on the computer.

Thank you. Sister-in-law, does the modem really work?

Yoo-hyun unpacked his bag and followed Choi Jeong Boks wife to the room.

Choi Jeong Boks wife, Kim Seung Mi, sat in front of the computer.

Im setting it up now after hearing his story. Thanks to you, I got to see the modem that brought me and my husband together again.

Oh, really? I was wondering why you still have it.

I didnt buy it back then.

Kim Seung Mi fiddled with the modem and suddenly said with regret.

Ah.

Yoo-hyun didnt know how to answer and Kim Seung Mi laughed.

Ho ho ho. Just kidding. Okay, let me connect it.

Okay. Thank you.

Yoo-hyun quickly came to his senses and focused.

Click.

Kim Seung Mi pressed the connect button and a dialing sound came out.

-Woong woong. Beep beep beep beep. Di. Di. Di. Di.

It was as noisy as when connecting a fax machine.

The monitor screen showed a message saying connecting along with texts scrolling up.

It felt like he had gone back to the 90s.

It takes some time, but it should work at this rate.

Kim Seung Mi said and Yoo-hyun checked the time.

Time left: 5 minutes.

-Yoo-hyun, Colorphone 2 wont work. Ill try Kangs phone or someone elses too.

He got a message from Jo Ki-jung saying it didnt work,

-Kid, Applephone 3 cant convert files, and Ilsungs file manager keeps crashing. How about the modem?

He also got a call from Choi Jeong Bok saying it was hard.

The only thing he could trust was Kim Seung Mis modem.

Yoo-hyun connected the USB to the desktop and transferred the file while saying,

Sister-in-law. Please make it work. Ill repay you for sure.

What do you mean repay? I should treat you instead. But sir, this is the first time Ive seen you so desperate. You always looked relaxed.

I cant go golfing tomorrow if I dont do this.

Thats when Yoo-hyun told her his desperate story.

Kim Seung Mi clapped her hands with a smile.

Ho ho. That wont do. Oh? Its connected.

Really?

Yoo-hyun pulled up a chair and sat in front of the computer.

Click.

He pressed the button and a portal site appeared as the homepage.

The images were all broken though.

Kim Seung Mi, who used to work at an IT company back in the day, explained the situation.

The modem speed is too slow, so I only made the text visible.

Okay. I just need to send an email.

Yoo-hyun calmly logged in.

It took forever for the screen to change.

Tap tap tap tap.

He had to be calm at times like this, but he kept tapping the poor mouse with his fingers.

Time left: 3 minutes.

The screen changed and he accessed the mail site.

Accessing and loading the attachment was also a problem.

It took 30 seconds for one window to pop up.

Time left: 1 minute 30 seconds.

His phone rang non-stop with calls from Min Dal-gi and Ma Jong Hyun, the team leader.
