The Game Developer Who Left the Company Is Too Competent

28. Reorganization (3)

Amazing Racing Team Art Director Park Yoo-hwan.

The 34-year-old has a history of divorce and has been a famous illustrator in the casual drawing field for a long time.

‘This is not important.’

If you have been in the industry for a long time, it was an obvious story that you often come across.

In the process of recruiting talent, it is a story that a person who is pretty and likes the opposite s*x is selected and approached in the name of teaching them work.

‘Even if you can understand that far… … .’

Park Yoo-wan AD is crossing the line in the approach process.

Crucially, the reporter, first-year Wonhwa Kim Hye-won, said that she had a boyfriend.

“Tell me a few anecdotes that you think are the most serious of Park Yoo-hwan’s AD’s crossing the line.”

“Our art team get-togethers are quite frequent, and each time he would sit close to me, offer me a drink, encourage me to get drunk, and tell jokes that I couldn’t bear to hear.”

“What exactly is that tough joke?”

“That, so… … .”

“It must be difficult, but I can’t help you if you don’t tell me exactly.”

Hesitantly, instead of answering, she took out her phone and played the recorded file.

– The night is getting low, the night is getting low. Do you know what this is? What’s trending these days? … .

-… … So what type is Hyewon?

-I think Hyewon has really pretty legs and pelvis! It’s amazing. Her face is so innocent, but her body… … .

‘Is this a madman?’

Taeyeon’s face darkened.

But this was just the beginning.

– Mr. Hyewon. After the dinner, let’s go separately. yes? Hey, don’t you believe me? It’s because there’s a place I want to take Hyewon.

– Personally, I like a girl who is innocent but hides the temperament of a connoisseur inside. I think Hyewon is that type… … how is it?

There was also a bad joke that I couldn’t bear to listen to.

“There are things like this.”

It was the content of the KakaoTalk conversation.

There was a considerable amount of text, but at first glance, it was a level of non-work related content.

“Is there a close person in the company who knows about this and is on Hyewon’s side?”

“yes! It’s Jeong Ki-won… … To be honest, when I was at a loss, he gave me some advice and asked me to talk to the producer. PD-nim has a very good reputation and has a lot of fighter temperament, so he said that he would never pass this on… … .”

A fighter’s temperament… … .

Taeyeon smiled at her absurd mind and said.

“Could you please call him here?”

Jung Ki-won.

He was a 3rd year original artist on the same team.

“Could you tell me all your sightings?”

He did not hesitate to expose everything he saw and heard.

It’s like I’ve been waiting for this moment.

“And that person, I don’t know what the heck he is, but he doesn’t even do his job properly! If you look closely, there are many suspicious parts. Occasionally, character modeling is entrusted to an outsourcing modeler, but I don’t know why. … .”

“for a moment. Could you elaborate on that?”

“yes yes? which… … ?”

“A story about outsourcing modeling. I would like to hear more.”

Jung Ki-won flinched when he saw Tae-yeon’s eyes blaze.

Overwhelmed by the momentum, he stuttered and confessed what he had seen and heard.

“That, so… … .”

I immediately went to the general affairs team to check the outsourcing expenditures of the Amazing Racing team.

‘Ten million won, an excessive amount.’

Amazing Racing is a casual game and does not require high-quality graphics. Cards, characters, and item design are also in the direction of realizing cartoon-like ideas, so it is not a game that costs 10 million won for outsourcing.

‘Come to think of it, back in the days of Dream Soft, there were quite a few people who joked with outsourcing.’

Every quarter, outsourcing costs were spent in different places, and a total of 10 million won.

Just in case, I checked out the outsourcing expenses of other live studios.

‘No matter how realistic the graphics are… … Outsourcing costs 30 million won?’

The outsourcing price of the best modeler in Korea he knew was around 20 million won. Even he doesn’t charge that much for every outsourcing. Most of them ask for a chance for acquaintances, so it is because the discount is entered by itself.

‘I’ll have to check it out once in a while.’

I tried to proceed with the reorganization as quietly as possible… … .

‘I guess it’s going to be difficult.’

* * *

“uh? Oh, how are you!”

The general director of Amazing Racing was a woman in her mid-40s. He wore red horn-rimmed glasses and was quite large.

Taeyeon’s appearance caught the attention of everyone in the studio’s development team.

Taeyeon asked the director with a calm face.

“I came because I wanted to check something. Did you outsource the card and character modeling this time?”

“yes? yes That, what about it?”

The voice trembles slightly.

“Can you show me some?”

“Why, why?”

“I was wondering what level it would be to outsource modeling for a casual game for 10 million won.”

Taeyeon smiled a little.

“If the quality is good after watching it, I will try to ask that person to outsource for my next project.”

“… … .”

She started to shiver with a visibly blushing face.

Taeyeon asked with an unchanging smile.

“Why is that?”

“that that… … .”

Taeyeon turned her head.

Everyone on the development team was looking at Taeyeon and the director with puzzled faces, but there was only one.

‘That person.’

A handsome man in a pomade style, neatly dressed in business casual style, stood up from his seat with a white face.

“Park Yuhwan AD?”

“yes yes!”

“You two, please follow me into the conference room.”

As if they had committed a crime, the two of them followed Taeyeon with their heads down and their whole bodies shaking.

“I don’t catch it. Calm down, you two.”

It was useless.

The two of them were trembling pitifully with pale faces as if they would fall backwards at any moment.

‘How on earth is my image stuck?’

Even the grim reaper witnessed it.

‘This is how it happened… … .’

Taeyeon said directly.

“Did you embezzle money?”

“… … !”

“The requested modeler is probably receiving an annual salary of 50 million won from the company, and the two of them must have deposited 9.67 million won, 3.3% of which is 10 million won, for modeling outsourcing costs. And the two of them would have received 2 million won each. The modeler must have ate 5.67 million won.”

Two twinkling eyes.

I felt like I could hear my heart beating from here.

“Is there anything wrong with my example?”

“… … .”

“… … .”

The two of them licked their lips and lowered their heads helplessly.

admitting all the facts.

“And Mr. Park Yuhwan.”

“yes yes… … ?”

“You will face additional discipline and punishment for s*xual harassment in the workplace, so you’d better be prepared.”

“I-why did I… … I’ve never been like that! that’s a scam… … !”

AD Park Yoo-hwan, who stood up and hurriedly refuted.

Soon after facing Taeyeon’s face, he stiffened like a frog in front of a snake.

Even living in that cold and sharp gaze… … .

‘gulp.’

fear creeps in

“The evidence is so clear that I will take no rebuttals. If you do not admit it and deny it to the end, I will shake off all the injustices so far and receive aggravated punishment.”

The eyes shine through the glasses.

“Would you like to try it?”

“… … !”

His legs loosened and he sat down helplessly.

“Director Yoojung Song.”

“Yes, yes… … .”

“If you obediently cooperate with this matter, I will open a way for you to live.”

“Uh, how… … ?”

“If you return all the money you have stolen so far and openly confess the process, I will leave the company without saying anything.”

If that happens, you will find a way to make a living by getting a job at another company.

Realizing that this is the door to the last opportunity opened by Taeyeon, director Yoojung Song… … .

“That, that’s why… … As for what happened… … .”

* * *

Afterwards, Taeyeon called the head of the personnel and general affairs team, and summoned the studio’s PD and AD, who were strongly suspected of embezzlement of outsourcing funds, and began interrogation, not interrogation.

“I’m sorry!”

“Stop being blinded by my child’s school fees… … !”

The reason why it was an interrogation rather than an interrogation was because those who faced Taeyeon’s cold face trembled and confessed the truth first.

Of course, not everyone was willing to cooperate.

“Suddenly calling someone out and treating them like criminals… … Can a person do this?”

“Aren’t you afraid of being promoted to the position of general manager? The person I worked as a producer for over ten years at this company. Son Young-sang and Lee Tae-young, directors, say that they are like me and my brothers and sisters in private! understand?”

someone who screams again.

“I am really sorry. Is it embezzlement? I never did!”

The one who takes it off like it’s unfair until the end.

The response to these people was simple.

“If you investigate, everything will come out. Let’s go to the end.”

* * *

In the end, I was able to get all the confessions before work.

With Taeyeon’s confidence, the details of the corruption were pinpointed, and everyone raised their hands.

The head of the Personnel and General Affairs Team said with a curious face.

“As expected, Chief. You’re amazing, as I’ve heard!”

“… … How the hell did rumors of me spread in the company?”

“Development machine! Iron-Blooded Man! Extermination Yoo PD!”

“I don’t know everything else, but that last nickname doesn’t make sense. How did I annihilate anyone?”

“This nickname was given because he does not tolerate anyone who dares to slander and mercilessly strikes the neck!”

Not even a laugh came out.

“It feels like it’s known because the facts are a bit distorted.”

“And there are rumors that he is the only person in our company who can overturn the decisions of the president and directors.”

“that… … .”

“Isn’t it?”

“I’ve been overthrown by them a few times by talking nonsense, but that doesn’t mean that I am not a person with great power or authority.”

“also… … !”

The head of the Personnel and General Affairs team, whose eyes sparkled at Taeyeon!

‘Did your father say that he was from Harvard and was the vice president of the Bank of Korea?’

I heard that he is one of the most powerful people in the company and has personal connections.

Chairman Yoo Jin-seong, Son Young-sang, and Lee Tae-young, two one-two punches, are also very favored talents.

“I respect you! Chief!”

“… … It’s burdensome.”

“No, I’m not flattering, I respect you from the bottom of my heart! That momentum, tremendous game development skills, and the way he pursues his convictions without being shaken by any external conflicts. PD-nim is my hero!”

Seriously, it’s very burdensome.

Taeyeon thought so and changed the issue.

“Since you’ve been with us through the whole process, you know how to handle it, right?”

“yes! of course!”

“I will think about the gap issue and discuss it with the team leader again to deal with it.”

“yes! I hope to go along well! Chief!”
