Episode 50 – Mr. Miracle (1)
“CEO, this is the list of candidates for the next CEO of Yu-One Hotel.”
Secretary Go pushed out to Seoyeon while holding a trial.
Apparently, it was based on Ji-hyeok’s advice that if Seo-yeon was to directly support the open market and offline general shopping mall run by U1 Shopping, she needed a new person to manage the Yu-won Hotel.
Seoyeon tilted her head and said.
“Among the existing hotel executives, is Lee Beom-young the only chief manager?”
“As you can see, the list was selected based on marketing experts rather than hotel staff. Currently, Yu-One Hotel has a remarkably low level of awareness and users compared to its facilities, so it is my judgment that it is better to recruit outside personnel. Among the existing executives, Chief Manager Lee Beom-young He is the only person who has completed an MBA as well as a business marketing major.”
“How did the merger between Cosmetics and Sunghan Paper go? Oh, is it Shinsung C&L now?”
“President Bae Seong-joon, who took office as CEO of Cosmetics, said he would post a separate report. Rather than merging and listing on the KOSDAQ, it would be more helpful for advisor Ji-hyeok Kang and CEO to strengthen their dominance by listing the holding company and incorporating it as an affiliate. It is of the same opinion.”
It was a decision made with a fairly long view.
In order for the group to grow in size, it is essential to attract large-scale capital, and in the process, Ji-hyeok and Seo-yeon’s share ratio will inevitably be reduced.
Seo-yeon thought that an executive who looked ahead and gave advice would have had a pretty good view.
Seoyeon said with her lips slightly raised.
“There’s a point. President Seong-jun Bae, that’s quite right. He knows how to please the owners.”
“As Advisor Kang Ji-hyeok said, he seemed like a person with a broad outlook.
Seoyeon thought of Jihyeok and gave a satisfied smile.
“Anyway, someone filmed it. Make sure to check the schedule with Mr. Ji-hyeok for the meeting with the candidate for the hotel’s representative director and arrange it together. Oh, it would be nice to have a group naming PT that day as well.”
“Yes, CEO. I’ll check the two of you’s schedules before proceeding.”
“Good work, Secretary Go. No, let’s say Team Leader Ko. I’ll be going to the head office next week anyway. Congratulations on your promotion, Team Leader Ko.”
The head of the division served as the CEO, the advisor was the group owner, and the current confirmed team member was Shin Dong-soo, the team leader of the sales support team, a parachute with a high school diploma.
“Thank you, CEO. But are there any additional team members?”
“Well, Mr. Jihyeok said that he will set up an overseas business team under the sales support team… Don’t we have anything to do with overseas business yet? It’s not like there are any export items.”
“Ah… then, first of all, I’ll make a list of reserve team members, mainly those who are fluent in foreign languages.”
“No, first pick someone to help with Team Leader Ko’s work. Before that, ask the HR department to finish the first filtering, okay?”
“Yes, CEO. I will handle it that way.”
After the report, Team Leader Ko hesitated as if he had something to say.
“What’s wrong? Team leader Ko. Do you still have something to report?”
“It’s not related to work, but I saw Shin Dong-soo in the lobby on the first floor before coming up.”
“Oh, Dong-soo? Who? Alone?”
“I was with a woman.”
Seoyeon smiled and said.
“Dong-soo? So what did you do? Couldn’t you have tipped off the floor manager and upgraded the room?”
“Oh, it’s not an overnight stay, but I told you to take care of yourself because you came to eat at our Italian restaurant.”
“Really? Well done. Mr. Ji-hyeok is my dearest younger brother, so I need to make some noodles. Well done, Team Leader Ko.”
“The manager of the food and beverage division happened to be nearby, so I asked for a table for two people… but I heard something strange.”
“Huh? What are you talking about?”
“The manager seemed to be recognizing Shin Dong-soo and his group.
Most first-class hotels secretly create a blacklist, but since it is an industry with frequent turnover, the list was often shared.
Blacklists are mostly written for true customers, but some young women have been blacklisted for other reasons.
Seoyeon asked with a slightly surprised expression.
“Is it that one?”
“Yes, I guess… Shall I contact Advisor Kang separately?”
“No, there are a lot of things to do, but let’s not make people worry about these things.
“Yes, I understand. CEO.”

“Dongsoo Shin. This is Wonseok Lee, general chef of Yuwon Hotel. We warmly welcome you to visit our restaurant. Before serving the main dish, we prepared Tomato Salmon Burgesta as an appetizer. The wine is a rich red wine that goes well with Italian food… ·.”
When the head chef of the hotel appeared, Dong-soo’s shoulders soared to the sky.
Lee Soo-jeong, who started dating not long ago, was a woman Dong-soo met while he was on his way to buy supplies for the shrine. He majored in oriental painting.
Of course, all these were Sujeong Lee’s words, but Dongsu never guessed that the beautiful woman who showed interest in him would have lied.
Lee Soo-jeong said with a coquettish laugh.
“Dongsu, were you a VIP here? I’ve been to a lot of hotels, but it’s the first time I’ve seen the head chef serving himself.”
Dong-soo’s lips twitched.
“hahahaha, it’s all thanks to my older brother.”
“Ah…, is that great older brother?”
“Yes, you’re doing a big business, but this is a secret… The hotel here is actually your brother’s.”
“Oh my gosh, really?”
“Sure, really. But, starting next week, I will go to the headquarters with my older brother, so meeting Soo-jung during the day would be difficult, what should I do?”
Lee Soo-jeong smiled bashfully and said.
“Whatever, we can meet in the evening. More than that, what kind of money does that brother-in-law run a business like that? He said he’s young, by any chance there’s someone behind him who pays for it?”
“Um… there are people who help me a lot.”
“Really? Who?”
Dongsu said while scratching the back of his head.
Dong-soo, who was about to say that Sangje-sin helped him, changed his mind and said something else.
“Sujeong-ssi, don’t you have any questions about me besides my older brother? I have so many questions about Sujeong-ssi…”
“Ai, you need to know what kind of people are around Dong-soo so that you can get to know him better.
At that time, the staff at the restaurant all bowed their heads and greeted someone.
When I was surprised by Lee Soo-jeong, saying that he seemed to be a great person even though I didn’t know who he was, for some reason, Dong-soo jumped up and said hello to that great person.
“Huh? Representative Jin? What’s the matter here…”
“I need to be able to sit in the office after hearing that Dong-soo came.”
Seoyeon glanced at Lee Sujeong and said.
“Is this… your girlfriend?”
“Dongsu, who is this person?”
“Ah, hello Sujeong. I’m Jin Seo-yeon, the CEO of the hotel here.”
“Ah…, hello. My name is Sujeong Lee. I wonder if you’re from the Yuwon group…”
Seoyeon interrupted Sujeong’s words.
“I thought Dong-soo was a soft-spoken man, but you’ve been hiding such a pretty girlfriend? Nice to meet you, Su-jeong. Then go on a date and talk to the manager over there if you lack anything.”
Dongsoo said with a very happy expression.
“Yes, CEO Jin. Thank you.”
Seoyeon wanted to leave, but for some reason, with an awkward hand gesture, she overturned the wine glass in front of Sujeong Lee.
“Kyaaak!”
“Oh, I’m sorry, Soo-jung. Manager over there, go get some clothes for this customer to change into. Quickly.”
– Yes, CEO.
“Sujeong-ssi, go and change your clothes first. Leave your clothes in the hotel laundry room for a while.”
Lee Soo-jung was irritated, but managed her expression as much as possible and followed Seo-yeon.
Seoyeon’s expression instantly turned cold as she took Sujeong Lee to the changing room.
Behind Seoyeon were two security agents.
From noble mtl dot com.
Seoyeon said with an expressionless face without a hint of laughter.
“Lee Soo-jung, sit there.”
“Yes? They said they’ll give you clothes to change into…”
“Would you like to hand me the bag?”
“Why… why are you like this?”
Sujeong Lee, who suddenly sensed that the atmosphere was strange, looked at Seoyeon with trembling eyes.
Seoyeon winked at the security agent to bring her bag.
Immediately, Seoyeon opened her bag and took out her wallet, took out Sujeong Lee’s identity card and said,
“Heh, but you haven’t changed your last name? Your real name is Lee Bok-hee, and what’s your job…?”
“Why, why are you doing this? What did I do wrong… I’m going to keep saying this and screaming.”
Seoyeon said while looking at the security agent.
“Did you hear that? If you scream, put a gag on your mouth.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Yes, sir.”
Seoyeon said with a fishy smile.
“Bok-hee, it’s none of my business whether you act like a snake or sell yourself anywhere. In our hotel, you shouldn’t touch my sister, the person I cherish the most.”
Fortunately, Lee Bok-hee was a quick-witted woman.
“I’m sorry.”
“Our Bok-hee seems to know who I am from the look on her face, but don’t you want to know how far Korea’s conglomerates can go?”
“Everyone… I’ll break up right away. I won’t appear in front of Dong-soo again. Please look at me just once. I’ll disappear right now.”
Seoyeon frowned, but soon put on a pathetic expression.
“Bokhee, don’t be so stupid. If you disappear like this, my appearance will become ridiculous. Go and have a meal. After that, you pretend to be going somewhere far away to study. You know what I mean?”
“Yes, yes. I see.”
“Okay, let’s solve Bokhee’s expression. Should we smile? When the manager brings clothes, change and go.”
Seoyeon, who turned around like that, tilted her head and continued.
“Oh, Bok-hee. Isn’t it possible that someone is instigating you to do this? I don’t think so, right?”
“Ah… no.”
“Yeah, better not. If that’s the case, I can’t leave you alone, even as a warning. Anyway, I don’t think you’re too stupid, so behave yourself.”

a few days later,
A bit early to go to work.
A Cadillac Escalade gently stopped at the entrance of the U1 Shopping building.
Dong-soo and Chief Woo got down from the driver’s seat and the front passenger’s seat almost simultaneously and opened the back door without anyone having to say.
Soon, Ji-hyeok, who was riding in the back seat, got out of the car in a stylish suit.
U1 shopping with an evaluation value of at least 3 trillion won.
It was a historic moment to become the owner of this place in a short time of just over a year and go to work.
Ji-hyeok, who arrived at the office building early in the morning to avoid the useless protocols of the executives and employees, looked at the building for a while and enjoyed the pleasant moment.
“let’s go.”
“Yes, advisor.”
“Yes, advisor.”
For some reason, Dong-soo, whose eyes are slightly swollen, followed Ji-hyeok in a rather office worker-like appearance.
The moment I passed through the revolving door at the entrance for my first not-so-fantastic start to work.
The lights in the lobby on the first floor were turned on one after another with a clicking sound.
“Congratulations to the advisor on his first day at work.”
“Congratulations to the advisor on his first day at work.”
“Congratulations to Min-Num Goh on his first day at work…”
People giving congratulations filled Ji-hyeok’s field of vision.
Starting with Daniel, CEO of U1 Shopping, Seonghan Park, CEO of Shinsung C&L, Seongjun Bae, CEO of Cosmetics, Yujin Jeong, CEO of Vertical Movement, and after that, key executives from U1 Shopping, Cosmetics, and Hotel all bowed their heads to greet Jihyeok.
Soon, Seoyeon’s face could be seen behind the executives who raised their heads and applauded.
Jihyuk said with a slightly sullen face.
“Where’s the office?”
“Don’t be scared. This isn’t my idea, it’s CEO Connor’s idea. I agree with the idea that executives should be aware of who the owner of the company is, even if employees don’t know.”
Only then did Jihyeok smile softly.
“I’m not angry, so let’s go up quickly.”
*
Arriving at the office of the sales support team that Ji-hyeok and Seo-yeon will be using, Ji-hyeok goes straight to the small meeting room inside.
Then, Daniel entered the conference room with Bae Seong-joon, president of Cosmetics.
“Mr. Miracle. Congratulations again on your first day at work.”
“Mr Connor, what are you talking about all of a sudden?”
“hahahaha, didn’t you know? In the business world, the advisor’s nickname is Mr. Miracle. A miracle man who appeared like a comet and took over U1 Shopping with an valuation of over 3 trillion won, and led a company worth 5 trillion won including affiliates. All words that modify advisor. no see.”
Jihyuk smiled and said.
“This is the first time I’ve known that Daniel is so good at flattering. Shall we start with the list of candidates for the hotel’s representative director?”
Seoyeon quickly handed over the prepared documents to Jihyeok.
“Here. I have a separate interview scheduled for this afternoon.”
Jihyeok nodded and slowly looked over the list of candidates.
Most of them are professional managers with more than 20 years of experience who have completed their MBA abroad, and they are overspecs as CEOs of Yuwon Hotel, which has only one hotel.
After examining the list quite meticulously, Jihyeok said as he closed the papers.
“I think the afternoon interview should be reduced to the first three people, and Daniel and Seoyeon should be chosen.
Seoyeon said.
“I also wanted to see Chief Manager Lee Bum-young… He is the only hotel graduate who has even completed an MBA.”
“I saw it too. I’ll let this person see it myself.”
“Yes? Mr. Ji-hyeok, except manager Lee Beom-young?”
Jihyuk smiled and said.
“It’s just a pity to keep a man who has entered the great fortune of 10 years into a hotel. This person will grow our company at least tenfold. Maybe Mr. Miracle would be a better nickname for him.”
