Chapter 597: Lee Sung-hee's hesitation
“…… To sum up, we have a leading level in the world in terms of hardware manufacturing, but in terms of smartphone system research and development, we have indeed encountered difficulties, excellent software engineers are too few, in this kind of 'cake' period, all the mobile phone manufacturers in the world are competing for these talents, we started a little late, so the situation - very unfavorable. Park Dong-hoon concisely explained the progress of his work, including the achievements and difficulties encountered, without the slightest concealment.
Park Dong-hoon is a smart person, and he understands that in his position, in the face of Lee Sung-hee, it is useless to think carefully. His so-called 'future' is all in the thoughts of this grandfather, and if he denies himself, no matter how many achievements he has, it is useless. Therefore, Park Dong-hoon did not emphasize his achievements and conceal his mistakes like ordinary executives, he honestly showed his degree, and as for other things, it was all left to Lee Sung-hee to decide.
After listening to Park Dongxun's story, Lee Sung-hee's eyes flashed with a hint of discoloration and fell into deep thought. In fact, before he asked Park Dongxun, he had already learned about Park Dongxun's work progress through others, and he knew that he had encountered thorny difficulties in the research and development of mobile phone intelligent systems, and this mistake would cause Star Electronics to be unable to withdraw from the third-generation smartphone according to the original plan in the first quarter, and the seriousness of the consequences is self-evident. Lee Sung-hee's plan is to take this opportunity to remove Park Dong-hoon from his position at STAR Electronics, so that within STAR Electronics, Lee Bong-ah will no longer have any remnants of power and completely dispel her ambitions for the position of heir.
But it was unexpected by Lee Sung-hee. Park Dong-hoon didn't hide his mistakes. Such a frank attitude made Lee Sung-hee hesitate. Although he made up his mind to maintain Li Min's position as heir, Li Fengya was his eldest daughter after all, and the love between father and daughter for more than forty years was not something that could be given up by ruthlessness. From the standpoint of being a father, Lee Sung-hee's love for Lee Feng-ah and Lee Min is the same, and the reason why he chose Lee Min is not only for the departed beloved, but also for the family's considerations. When Li Chengxi was young, he was known for his eyes like a torch and his knowledge and use of people. He knew exactly what his children were capable of. Among the descendants of the Li family's generation, only Li Min has the corresponding ability. In order to support Li Min, he must clean up Li Fengya's power, but the facts in front of him are. Lee Min has 'Jonesheimer's disease'. It's a terminal illness. The one in 100 million possibility, although Lee Sung-hee wanted to believe it, reason told him. Hope is slim.
Under such circumstances, if the future of the family is entrusted to Li Min, the risk is too great. An heir takes time to train, and if Park Dong-hoon is given up at this time, but in case Lee Min really has an accident, he will face the dilemma of having no heir to the Star Foundation!
Lee Sung-hee didn't dare to bet, between his son and the family, he could only choose the family, he had no choice.
"Dongxun, you're doing a great job." Li Chengxi squinted his eyes and groaned for a long time, and when all the executives thought that the old chairman was asleep, he spoke. All the executives were amazed, how could it be different from what they thought? Listening to the meaning of this remark, Mr. Chairman does not seem to have the intention of expelling Director Park, otherwise how could he say such a compliment, "Very good"?
"Smartphones are the trend of the future and will be the foundation of Star's future standing, so in this regard, we must achieve the world's leading level, otherwise we will be eliminated. Now this market is the time to 'share the cake', how much we can get depends on whether our products can meet the needs of consumers. In terms of hardware, our technology has always been leading, this aspect is not our problem, the most difficult part is the operating system, we have no accumulation in this area, and there is no talent. After Li Chengxi said these words, he paused, looked at the senior executives present, and said: "What to do, this is a problem that must be solved now, you are all elites in the industry, it is the time when the company needs to ask you for advice, it doesn't matter if you don't have an idea now, I will give you three days, and after three days, everyone here submits a proposal to Director Park, and expresses their views on the solution to the smartphone system." Speaking of this, a hint of fierceness flashed in Li Chengxi's eyes: "I want to see a solution to the problem, if there is no waste of ideas, after three days, I will go to the personnel department to hand over!" ”
After saying such a long sentence in one breath, Lee Sung-hee coughed. The temperature in early spring was repeated, and the old man had been catching a cold for a while. The pool steward handed over the medicinal tea at the right temperature, and at the same time waved his hand to the executives who were still a little indifferent.
"Let's get out of here, that's all for today's meeting."
Steward Chi's identity was transcendent, no one would question his words, everyone got up and saluted Li Chengxi, and they all quietly walked out of the conference room. Park Dong-hoon was also about to leave, but was stopped by Steward Ji. Lee Sung-hee pointed to the nearest right position and motioned for Park Dong-hoon to sit down and speak.
"Dong-hoon," Lee Sung-hee took a sip of medicinal tea, his cough finally stopped, called Park Dong-hoon's name, and let out a long sigh. What he has done to Li Fengya these days, in his father's position, he can't forgive himself. Now facing her son, Lee Sung-hee feels a strong sense of guilt. If he was young, he could have ignored this guilt, but he was already old, and the tiger had lost its claws and fangs, and no matter how fierce he was, he was just an old man in his last years.
"Do you hate me?" Lee Sung-hee took Park Dong-hoon's hand and looked into his eyes as if to see through his heart.
"No hate, I can understand your position." Park Dong-hoon smiled, not avoiding his gaze at all. Lee Sung-hee held Park Dong-hoon's hand and clenched it a little in vain, and Park Dong-hoon's words stabbed his heart fiercely and made him feel more guilty.
"Why don't you hate me, you should hate me, hate me, an old man, and ruin your future." Lee Sung-hee let go of Park Dongxun's hand and said with some sadness: "Feng Ya hates me to death now, I, as a father, am really a little unqualified." ”
"Please don't say that again, you're fine, you didn't do anything wrong." Park Dongxun said seriously: "My uncle is indeed better than me, and I, as a member of the Park family, are indeed not qualified to inherit." (To be continued......)
