Real Man-Chapter 565:

A few moments later, Yoo-hyun brought Na Do-ha to the representative’s office and faced the answer to his curiosity.

Park Young-hoon, who briefly introduced himself, asked with an awkward smile.

“You look quite young.”

It was only natural to say that, since Na Do-ha looked young enough to be mistaken for a high school student.

Aside from his age, his outfit was too childish compared to the typical interviewees.

Park Young-hoon had never expected him to show up in a checkered shirt and sneakers.

Was it because of the subtle sarcasm in his tone?

Na Do-ha responded with a prickly question.

“Did you call me to evaluate my appearance, not to interview me?”

“…”

For a moment, Park Young-hoon blinked his eyes, speechless.

The relationship between the two started off on the wrong foot, so Yoo-hyun stepped in.

“Of course not. If that was the case, we would have asked for your photo first.”

“Then I wouldn’t be here.”

“Right. So why don’t we get to the point? You must have a lot of questions, right?”

Since Na Do-ha had not revealed his information, Yoo-hyun had also not mentioned much about the company to Na Do-ha.

It was an investment company, and they were looking for software talent. That was all.

But Na Do-ha seemed to have already figured it out and confidently answered.

“I don’t have much to ask. You just want to give me some money and squeeze me hard for a year or two, right?”

“What do you think we’ll make you do?”

“It’s obvious for an investment company of this size. You want to make phishing sites, build multi-level network systems, and run them on overseas servers to avoid tracking.”

Na Do-ha had met all kinds of scoundrels in this business since he was in high school.

Among them, there were quite a few customers who introduced themselves as investment companies.

They were all trying to find ways to easily steal other people’s money.

Park Young-hoon jumped up at Na Do-ha’s blunt words.

“Multi-level? We are a legitimate investment company.”

“Well, none of my previous customers ever admitted that they were abnormal.”

“Huh.”

“I already knew what you were up to, so don’t bother measuring me. Just pay me on time.”

“No, we really do stocks and funds and…”

As Park Young-hoon tried to defend himself, Na Do-ha widened his eyes.

He remembered a nasty customer who had even hired thugs a few months ago.

“Huh! Don’t tell me you called me to hack someone else’s stock account?”

“What?”

“I’m sorry, but I don’t do anything that could land me in jail. You’ve got the wrong person.”

“…”

At Na Do-ha’s sharp words, Park Young-hoon completely lost his words.

Yoo-hyun was also dumbfounded.

‘What the hell is he talking about?’

Yoo-hyun was about to say something when he heard Na Do-ha snort.

“It seems like you misunderstood something…”

Na Do-ha criticized him point by point.

“Really. I thought it was strange.”

“What was?”

“The building has no sign, the office is empty, and there are only two employees, one of whom is a Hansung Electronics employee. Oh, is that a lie too?”

“Of course not. I’m just a director here with a stake.”

“Then only one. But that one has a representative’s office in the company he works for. Does that make sense?”

When he thought about it, there was nothing wrong with Na Do-ha’s words.

But it was also hard to explain.

Double Y didn’t even have basic documents like a business plan, unlike other startups.

They didn’t need to, since they had enough capital.

But if they told the truth, they would only raise more suspicion.

Yoo-hyun thought for a moment and nodded at Park Young-hoon.

“President, show him what you prepared.”

“Really… Okay.”

Park Young-hoon got up with a reluctant expression and took the document on his desk.

He was full of anticipation when he wrote it with Yoo-hyun, but not now.

He felt angry as he looked at the kid who was attacking him with nonsense.

‘Jegal Ryang can freeze to death.’

Park Young-hoon glanced at Yoo-hyun and handed the document to Na Do-ha with a poker face.

Swoosh.

“This is a detailed salary calculation table. It includes the basic salary and the incentives for each stage.”

“It’s obvious that you pay more if you do more work.”

“Yes. Check it out.”

As Park Young-hoon gestured resignedly, Na Do-ha scanned the document.

His eyes, which had been dull, widened.

“This… 100 million?”

“That’s the amount when you add the basic salary of 30 million won and the bonuses. Of course, it’s hard to achieve, though.”

Park Young-hoon spat out the conclusion he had reached after looking around various IT companies.

If he really did this job, it would be worth giving him a billion won, as it was very difficult.

But Na Do-ha seemed to doubt it for a different reason.

The amount of money they paid was on a different level from the customers he had met so far.

But the job was too ordinary and normal for that.

“Just making a program and building a system, and you pay this much?”

“You don’t seem to understand, but making a proper investment app is not an easy task. You have to make sure that hundreds of thousands of people can use it stably, and you have to manage the users well…”

Park Young-hoon gave a long speech, but Na Do-ha muttered to himself as if he didn’t care.

He looked at the document with suspicion.

“It seems like something I can do in a few months by myself, and you even offer to pay for the training. Does that make sense?”

“Again, it’s a difficult task. It’s a financial matter, so you have to build a solid security system, and you have to be sure about the user management.”

Na Do-ha looked indifferent to Park Young-hoon’s earnestness.

“You don’t have to do everything at once, you can do it one step at a time. You also provide education and capital.”

“That’s how hard it is.”

“Is this hard?”

Na Do-ha questioned and looked at the content again.

Of course, he hadn’t done everything, but he had a sense of it from his long experience in this field.

It was different from now, when he had to somehow produce results in a haphazard way.

It didn’t seem difficult to go through one step at a time.

But they paid him several times more.

Na Do-ha couldn’t understand it and muttered.

“It seems like I can do it quickly…”

As he watched Na Do-ha, Park Young-hoon whispered to Yoo-hyun.

“Yoo-hyun, is he really trustworthy?”

“He might face some trials and errors, but he’s the one who can do it. I can guarantee that.”

“That would be a huge hit if it’s true. If he fails, we just don’t pay him the bonus. Wait, doesn’t that mean we have to hire him no matter what?”

“Are you sure about this?”

Even though Yoo-hyun acknowledged Nadoha’s skills, the core of this project was Park Young-hoon.

If he didn’t like him at all, Yoo-hyun would have looked for another way.

But Park Young-hoon, who had been cold and distant, suddenly changed his attitude.

“What’s wrong with being a bit grumpy? As long as he does his job well. Let’s get his signature quickly.”

“Fine, just bring the contract.”

Yoo-hyun gestured to Park Young-hoon and looked at Nadoha.

“Does this make sense?”

The lost genius who had been exploited by bad adults muttered to himself, as if he still couldn’t believe it.

Thud.

Yoo-hyun placed the contract he received from Park Young-hoon in front of Nadoha.

Then he lifted his head and added a simple summary.

“You’ll be enrolled in the four major insurances, and you’ll start with a basic salary. If you need to go to school, we’ll adjust your working hours so you can do both.”

“School?”

“Yes. You should go back and graduate later.”

Nadoha was incredulous at Yoo-hyun’s casual remark.

“Do you dig the ground and sell it here? What do you want from a penniless student that you’re giving me all this?”

“I value your worth highly.”

“On what basis?”

“On the many things that Black Swan has done in the dark. I believe they will have a great impact when they come to light.”

As Yoo-hyun spoke his sincerity, Nadoha’s pupils shook.

He lowered his head as if to hide his confusion.

“…”

Yoo-hyun silently waited for him, who seemed to have a lot on his mind.

Unlike his past, when he had to do things he didn’t want to, Yoo-hyun wanted to let him choose for himself this time.

After about 10 seconds?

Nadoha started to shrug his shoulders.

“Ha ha! Yeah, right. That’s impossible.”

“What do you mean?”

At Yoo-hyun’s question, Nadoha lifted his head and made a bombshell statement.

“Light my ass. I’m not doing it.”

“Why not? It’s a win-win situation for you.”

“I know enough that there’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world. And I know not to swallow anything that’s too sweet.”

Yoo-hyun blinked his eyes, wondering if he was mistaken.

It didn’t make sense no matter how he thought about it.

Crack.

He turned his head and explained in a clear voice.

“We’re not just giving it to you, we’re paying you for your work. That’s only fair.”

“That’s too much for a basic salary.”

“As you saw on the list, there’s a lot of work to do.”

“A lot of work, huh… You’re paying for overtime and weekend work, and you’re giving me flexible hours. Aren’t you?”

“That’s the same for any company.”

Yoo-hyun had worked for top-notch companies in the world.

On the other hand, Nadoha had experienced the bottom of the barrel, so his perspective was very different.

“You’re talking nonsense. Do I look like a rookie who’s never worked for a company?”

“That’s not what I meant…”

Yoo-hyun was at a loss for words at the unexpected question.

He hadn’t thought of that possibility.

Nadoha didn’t care and continued his absurd argument.

“How can I not doubt it when you’re giving me so much without reason? If you want to trick me, you should do it more convincingly.”

“…”

What the hell is this guy?

Yoo-hyun, who had lost his words completely, saw Park Young-hoon covering his mouth with his hand and showing his displeasure.

“This is ridiculous… He’s complaining even when we’re offering him.”

“I know, right?”

“What should we do?”

“He seems to be interested, since he’s still sitting here…”

Yoo-hyun tried to confirm his intention by pulling the contract slightly.

Tight.

But the contract held by Nadoha didn’t budge.

Yoo-hyun, who belatedly realized his true feelings, barely suppressed the laughter that came out and asked.

“So, do we need to prove our trust to you?”

“I’ve been ripped off more than once or twice. How are you going to prove it?”

“We’ll pay you in advance. You don’t have to work until you get paid.”

Yoo-hyun didn’t care whether he paid him first or later.

The company had enough funds to last for years without doing anything.

But it was different for Nadoha, who had been cheated out of money countless times.

He swallowed his saliva and asked.

“What if I take the money and run?”

“Then we can’t help it if you give up because it’s too hard. Of course, that means you’ll lose the bonus we mentioned.”

“You think I’ll give up because it’s hard?”

“If you’re confident, there’s no reason to refuse, right?”

Yoo-hyun’s basic provocation worked on Nadoha.

He pretended to be tough, but he was naive.

“Fine. I’ll show you.”

“Then let me give you a pen first.”

“Hmph! Is this where I sign?”

Nadoha grabbed the pen in a hurry.

Park Young-hoon took charge of explaining the contract.

“Let me explain first. As I told you before, we are doing this in a legitimate way…”

Park Young-hoon also added some explanations to clear up the unfairness he felt earlier.

But Nadoha waved his hand as if he didn’t care.

“I don’t care as long as you pay me. You don’t have to pretend.”

“No. We have to clear up any misunderstandings, don’t we?”

“It’s not like you’re doing anything illegal. Then I’ll sign. There, done?”

Nadoha signed, but Park Young-hoon didn’t stop.
