The Game Developer Who Left the Company Is Too Competent

68. Star developer Choi Jong-hak (3)

Choi Jong-hak, who heard all the explanations, stood up and shouted.

“You impostor! If that had happened, you should have said it right away!”

“Now the inside is cluttered. I was going to tell you when it was sorted out to some extent.”

Choi Jong-hak’s eyes narrow.

“Isn’t that what you were trying to test me for?”

“What test?”

“To see if this bastard is loyal or not… … .”

“… … .”

Taeyeon, who had been silently watching, let out a sigh.

“Leave your delusions aside and sit down for now. Aren’t you embarrassed to see other people?”

The eyes were still focused.

“I’m sorry!”

Choi Jong-hak apologizes and sits down.

Taeyeon, who had clicked her tongue, continued.

“At this point, anyone can see that the CEO position of Netfunz is a much better proposal. Netfunz is already a conglomerate.”

“That’s true, but the future possibility… … .”

“It could be ruined. If Elcross Re’s profits suddenly drop right away, or if Pantheon or Pandaemonium’s performance is worse than expected, the mood may change. You must know this much, too, right?”

“… … .”

unspoken consent.

Taeyeon looked at him and said.

“I once said You are a dream boy.”

“I think it was like that when I made the limit break… … .”

“It still is. You are the type who values dreams more. But most don’t. If I were in your situation, I would have chosen the path of becoming the CEO of Netfunz without hesitation. As soon as you accept it, you are guaranteed a stake of 20,000 shares and an annual salary of 400 million won.”

“what… … Is that right?”

“Of course, I was making some predictions. Wouldn’t you choose that path? But it’s just an estimate. And that choice is not something I will force. In my opinion, the position as CEO of Netfunz was much better than the position of CEO of Mars Games, where all you had was the possibility for the future. That’s why I didn’t say anything. Because I wanted you to take the good road.”

And grinning.

“There is also a way to become CEO of Mars Games after working as CEO of Netfunz for about two years.”

“It is not.”

The final study was adamant.

“A chance like that doesn’t come every day. And there are definitely many talented people who can fill the position that hyung wants, even if it’s not me. If that person was doing a good job of representing Mars Games, what would you do? Are you really confident to push him away and give me a chance?”

“hmm… … .”

“Even if my brother gives me a chance, I won’t become a toxic person enough to kick out people who are doing their duty well.”

“He might not be able to do it right.”

“I don’t think my brother will judge someone like that. You have a special eye for people.”

Not quite like that… … Taeyeon had to swallow a bitter smile without even denying it.

“anyway… … .”

Choi Jong-hak hits the table lightly and smiles with a refreshing face.

“You did well to decline the Netfunz offer. i’ll do that Mars Games representative position.”

“really?”

“huh. i like that one a lot So, doesn’t that mean that you can make triple-A games while being in charge of North American maintenance for the games my brother and I made?”

“yes.”

“That’s right. That means exports of games I made at Nexple to North America are also serviced through them. Right?”

“It will be like that.”

“good. Do you like it. do.”

And ask

“Then how will you treat me?”

500,000 dollars. House, car and personal assistant provided. 20,000 shares.

“We have to do it for at least two years, and we will decide whether or not to renew the contract after evaluating the work on a yearly basis.”

“It’s the same everywhere you go. well, good Conditions are very good.”

“The next point is important, but you have to work in America.”

“… … uh?”

“You have to manage the maintenance team, of course. And Mars Games is an American company. I am the owner.”

“Oh, is your brother the owner? Isn’t it Chairman Yoo or the vice president of Mercury Games?”

“It’s a company I established in the US with investment from two companies.”

“Ahang… … .”

“If you do well, I will give you more shares and guarantee you an executive level… … how is it? Do you want to go to America?”

“… … .”

Choi Jong-hak was worried.

‘It’s America… … .’

“Where exactly is your office?”

“Silicon Valley or Hudson Yards. There are two Mercury Games offices. You can choose one of them.”

“Wow, both are good. New York or IT mecca Silicon Valley? Considering the weather, Silicon Valley is fine… … I mean, I love big cities, especially New York vibes.”

“Neither way would be a bad proposition.”

“Even if I think about it, yes. Oh, the house and the car… … You’re not giving it to me, are you?”

“Corporate property.”

“Then it is.”

“Still, if you’re still going to be the CEO of Mars Games, you’re effectively owning it. I will take care of the house and arrange it in a place with the best location and scale.”

“… … .”

Choi Jong-hak let out a deep sigh.

“Oh, it’s hard to decide. I will think about this a little more.”

“By the way, I’m not going right away. It’s after the launch of Pandaemonium.”

“Of course it should. Anyway, okay.”

* * *

Choi Jong-hak faced another problem.

‘It’s America… … .”

It’s good to go.

First of all, the future of the company is very bright.

From nob le mt l dot com

Mercury Games, the world’s largest gaming company. A joint venture between South Korean game giant Nepple.

The owner is Taeyeon Yoo, the best developer who has never failed! Since the company started as a maintenance company for North American games including Elcross Re, there is no risk of loss.

‘There, since the company is located in the United States, you will be able to use the enormous development pool in the United States!

‘Actually, in Korea, except for my brother, no one knows how to make a proper console package title… … .’

By collaborating with local developers in the US, where such a culture has been established for a long time, you can easily create the game of your dreams.

‘It’s so good up to this point.’

the problem is… … .

I look at my phone and scratch my head.

Haven’t revealed it to anyone yet… … In particular, there are pictures that cannot be shown to Nexle people.

‘Do you want to go with me?’

It’s a girlfriend story.

‘You seem to be very satisfied with your current company… … .’

Should I just say something?

sent a text

[Let’s have dinner together tonight.]

The answer came quickly.

[Where to see it?]

[I’m waiting in the underground parking lot of the Japanese restaurant I went to last time. I’ll take the car.]

[Okay~]

After finishing the text message, Choi Jong-hak muttered.

“I have to convince you somehow.”

Choi Jong-hak, who rejected all the requests for meals from around him, took a car and moved to the meeting place.

In the underground parking lot of the Japanese restaurant building, I saw a woman dressed in casual black, with a baseball cap pressed down deeply, and her hair hanging down long.

‘There he is.’

Drive carefully with a smile on your face. When the car stopped in front, the woman got into the passenger seat as if she was used to it.

“Where are you going?”

“Sky lounge restaurant near COEX in Samseong-dong.”

“Oh, the place you went on your first date?”

“Do you remember?”

“It was a culture shock. Oh, I thought there was a place like this… … .”

We ate and talked as usual.

Jonghak thought so, but… … .

“Is there anything you want to say?”

“huh?”

“The atmosphere is different from usual… … Am I right?”

“uh… … different? what? how?”

“I couldn’t concentrate on the conversation and missed my words several times, so I asked again… … It’s obvious.”

she asks with narrow eyes.

“I hope you marry me… … ?”

“what? no way… … .”

“uh? it’s not that?”

“Not like that… … huh? Wait a minute, isn’t it?”

“… … What is he saying now?”

Also, the situation is strange today.

“It seems to be an important business… … what? I have almost finished eating. Isn’t it time to tell you?”

“hmm… … .”

“I can’t help but say goodbye… … .”

“Hey. it’s not that. Absolutely not!”

She smiles bashfully at her boyfriend’s serious face.

“Otherwise, it’s safe.”

“… … .”

Choi Jong-hak, who hesitated, said.

“I actually got this offer.”

The story of Netfunz and Mars Games begins like that.

It was a surprising story, but she listened quietly without expressing anything.

As a result, the story that he rejected Chairman Jeong Seok-hwan’s offer and accepted the position of CEO of Mars Games.

“The problem is that I have to go to America.”

“… … New York where?”

“Either Silicon Valley or New York. He said he would provide a house, a car, and an annual salary of $500,000… … .”

“hmm… … .”

“So that’s what… … .”

Hesitantly, he looks up and asks.

“together… … Shall we go?”

she finally realized

The reason why Choi Jong-hak suddenly got confused and behaved strangely when he mentioned marriage proposal.

She too asks in a trembling voice.

“What do you want, brother?”

“huh?”

“What my brother wants from me.”

“… … .”

“What do you think is the best situation for you?”

The moment I confirmed that her big, clear eyes were shaking.

Choi Jong-hak once again squeezed out the courage he had when he first confessed to her.

“I want to marry you and go and live in America together.”

“… … .”

“I can’t be without you.”

heart beats like it’s about to burst

This moment waiting for an answer.

Choi Jong-hak tried not to miss a single change in her expression.

After a while, she spoke up.

“… … .”

* * *

[Let’s have dinner together at the Japanese restaurant in Seocho-dong we went to last week. I have something I want to say.]

It was an uncharacteristic text.

Normally, he would have come and told me in person.

‘Looks like you’re busy.’

There are times like that.

Recently, Choi Jong-hak was having a busy day.

Pandaemonium development was accelerating, and there were many appointments for personal meetings.

‘Looks like they’ve decided where they’re going.’

From nob le mt l dot com

Maybe that’s the dragon.

After work, Taeyeon headed to the meeting place, a Japanese restaurant in Seocho-dong.

‘He hasn’t come yet.’

After you place your order and wait for a while, someone comes in.

Jong Hak.

‘… … I’m not alone.’

There was a woman with a hat pressed down.

long straight hair… … .

‘Is something familiar?’

The silhouette must have been seen somewhere… … .

The moment when two people sit side by side in the front seat.

“brother. First, let me introduce you to my girlfriend.”

And the moment she takes off her hat and smiles awkwardly.

“Who knows better than you?”

“… … .”

“We have decided to get married, and we will go to New York together. The reason I hid dating for so long… … .”

“… … .”

Taeyeon couldn’t keep her mouth shut.

Seong Tae-hee.

He was the original artist he personally selected and a subordinate he cherished.

With great education, good looks, and a good personality, he is very popular at Nexle… … .

‘Tae-hee and Jong-hak?’

Surely there must have been no contact?

‘How on earth… … ?’

Taeyeon was in extreme shock at the fact that she could not have imagined.
