Perhaps due to being consistently active, his ranking had leaped in Stack Overfly. When he went to the users noticeboard, there was a number at the bottom.

There were 36 users on one page so the total number of users went over 4 million. Amidst that, YongHo’s name was somewhere on the 300th page.

Even when he was at Busan, YongHo logged in to the website and solved any problems he could before sleeping.

‘Shall I have a look at gethub too?’

star 1031.

This number meant that there were more than 1000 people who were interested in this.

There were lots of functions on gethub, just like Stack Overfly.

‘fork’ meant that the user would just copy and paste the source to use it.

‘It looks like people do use indroid a lot.’

Stack Overfly ranker.

And ability that was above others…
YongHo’s self-esteem, which was at the bottom of a well, kept rising.

There was a final test one day before the opening.

And on the front line of the transaction were the POS devices. All the support personnel sent to Busan by their respective teams were working on the final test.

“Oh, yes. How may I help you?”

When YongHo said he was from Shinseki’s data processing team, the people silently approved of YongHo’s actions without saying anything.

YongHo circled on the 10th row on the table he received. Then, he proceeded to the next store.

“Well, I have the money from the prize so… When I go back, I should buy mother a bag, and father, a suit.”
YongHo murmured while going to the next store. It was a brand store that boasted of rising sales globally. There were especially a lot of people gathered in that store.

“How is it? Any problems?”

“In the opening tomorrow, the VIPs are all coming so there can’t be any ‘if’s okay?”

“Tell me the product ID.”

One person was standing in various poses in front of the mirror. And when he waved his hand, a lot of clothes could be seen on the screen.

Shinseki Magic Mirror.

This was an ambitious project to increase offline sales by a lot.

“It matches.”

It was a laptop that that was directly connected to the Magic Mirror. Whenever the man in front of the mirror posed himself, a log came up on the laptop.

“Why are you keep shaking your head, I said I was right.”

“What flash. Even if it was so, then that’s a problem with the display company. They didn’t install the firmware properly.”

“Hey, the opening is tomorrow. Did you check everything else? Let’s just let something minor be.”

“Hey, researcher Na, I have 10 years of work experience, 10 years. Can’t you just overlook it when I say it? I’m already vexed about changing into a development specialist.”

Development specialist.

According to Won JaeJin’s words, when creating this occupational group, the received applications from the original members to change.

The generalists also did developing so there was not much difference. Some people who changed, re-applied back but it wasn’t allowed.

“Then I’ll believe in you, senior researcher.”

YongHo’s eyes creased. It was an evasion of responsibility no matter who looked at it. The man could only talk with his mind but he didn’t do any work.

“I understand so please be quiet. You’re distracting me.”

“Hey, I said you can’t do it like that. Why are you skipping on commenting?”
The hand of the man who was typing on the laptop while sitting tensed.

Son SeokHo’s endurance reached a limit.

“I can’t wait anymore, I will take my leave.”

He endured and endured.

To use open source maut to create a global-tier recommendation solution.

But all that ends now.

“The office is at the point of giving off a sour smell. When we were preparing for the NetFlax Prize, we at least had an objective, but now? I can only see this as squeezing people out.”

“No. In my opinion, as long as you, the team leader, are here, it won’t end. The thing I’m the most angry about is that you’re being used meaninglessly in intra-company politics.”

She had an expression of resignation.

“Then why aren’t you leaving?”

Rich second generation.

“I can’t leave.”

At the loop of question and answer, Son SeokHo’s voice got louder. Jeong DanBi, who looked as if she had given up everything, instead had a calm expression.

“……”

“I haven’t fulfilled the condition.”

Jeong DanBi sipped the tea in front of her. She thought it was her personal problem, so she didn’t see the need to spread it around.

If Jeong JinHoon knew that condition and helped her, then 100 billion (≈87million USD) would be achieved easily.

Until that condition is met, Jeong JinHoon must never know of this.

And so she tried to bear this burden alone, but she now had no choice but to reveal it.

“Would you scroll the blind down please?”

The moment he grabbed the bead chain to scroll the blind down, his eyes met with Heo JiHoon’s eyes, who was walking past.

Heo JiHoon’s eyes seemed to speak as such, but Son SeokHo didn’t mind it that much and scrolled the blind down.

The wake up time was 5:30 a.m in the morning.

Everyone couldn’t hide their tense expressions. The first thing to do on the opening day was checking the POS devices.

While they received and solved some complaints from the stores that had some issues with product registration, time flew like an arrow.

“Hey, Mr. Lee YongHo, what are you doing, and not working? I should report this.”

“Head researcher!”

“What are you doing here?”

If people didn’t meet each other for a long time, they would instead start forgetting.

1 week.

“Hahaha, I came here to see whether there was anything good to buy since they said a premium outlet was opening today.”

Something deeper, and thicker was tying them together.

Translator’s notes

Regular chapter 1/3

Ahh… the spoon thing again. You remember it right? English idiom : “To be born with a silver spoon in your mouth” means you were born from wealthy parents. Koreans went and changed it so now it ranges from clay spoon to diamond spoon. (Clay spoon is like born in a bad environment). IN FACT, I think I remember the ‘spoon’ thingy rising after ‘Gin no Saji(Silver Spoon)’ anime was aired. Maybe, maybe not.

Spoiler (?) : Researcher Na (or Na DaeBang, as it will show up later) is an important character in the story. He is one of the main characters. He comes out ALL THE WAY UNTIL THE NOVEL FINISHES. So yeah, do remember him.
