Awakened as a Superman

{ stealth }

“hello. This is Seo Woo-min, who joined the company as an IT manager. Take good care of me.”

Yang Kwang Yang walked around the inside of BH Real Korea, greeting with a bright voice.

People who were sitting in their seats looking at their work glanced at them.

Anyone could see that he had excellent sociability.

From a position where we will work together in the same space in the future, such a bright attitude is not unwelcome.

Yang Yang-gwang mutters inwardly as he receives the greetings that come back with a happy face one by one.

‘Before… Are you a little offended?’

Yang Yang-gwang remembered what had happened for a moment.

Even thinking about it again, it was a scene where I would kick the blanket because I remembered it even while I was sleeping.

“Welcome on board!”

‘You mean welcome?’

Everything was unfamiliar to Yang Kwang, who had never worked in a company, let alone a foreign company.

Even though I was proud of my English conversational skills, the words that came into my ears were new at the same time.

It was fortunate that I was able to understand it with my own eyes.

“Thank you! I’ll do my best! (Thank you! I will do my best!)”

The first place the HR staff greeted at the reception of the company took Yang Kwang to the branch manager’s office.

The people who interviewed him in the recruitment interview were the head office IT staff and the human resources manager, so it was the first time the branch manager met him.

‘It looks good.’

I went into the branch manager’s office without being too nervous, but Yang Yang-gwang was momentarily taken aback by the unfamiliar expressions added to the American mainland pronunciation that was too flowing with no accent.

It’s a shame because the other person said it briefly, but what would have happened if he had said it for a long time?

‘I’ll do my best… I will do my best… rani. I didn’t come in as a career job.’

A line that a new employee would spit out energetically.

The reason such seemingly absurd words came out of their mouths spontaneously was probably due to the evils of the instilled education they received during their school days.

In any case, no one here knew him, and the only one who saw it was the head of the branch.

Yang Gwang-gwang struggled to win his heart.

‘What’s wrong, I haven’t really gotten a job… .’

Fortunately, the branch manager didn’t seem to care much about him.

Although he was embarrassed and uttered unprofessional remarks, he only said a few words of congratulations and encouragement before returning to his seat coolly.

Whatever the reason, it was a boon for him.

Efforts to keep a bright face in the bitter memory, Yang Yang-gwang bowed again.

“hello! This is Seo Woo-min. I joined the IT department.”

It was a little sloppy at first, but things will work out in the future.

Yang Yang-gwang decided to think positively.

Whatever the case, the important thing now was the fact that he was safely inside BH Real Korea.

Everything else was secondary.

* * *

Although Bruce Hendrick never said it personally, BH Real’s in-house information was leaked once.

Yang Yang-gwang’s eyes turned to the text hanging on the wall.

[Virtual Reality – More Realistic than Reality.]

[Contribute to Humanity by Providing Reality.]

The vision and mission of BH Real that was established by Bruce Hendrick himself.

The details had been spread outside.

This happened after BH blitzedly acquired five game companies and established BH Real to act as its holding company.

Although BH considers strict security as a strategy and culture, this message flowed out because the background of BH Real was somewhat different from the growth process of the existing BH.

BH Real was not a new company, and therefore its existing size was so large that it was difficult to fully control its large number of employees.

In any case, the leaked message was this:

Humans, mankind indirectly share experiences, accumulate knowledge and develop endlessly.

First, from parent to child, from word to word, and from the beginning of the human race to the present through books.

However, in the future, humanity will be able to achieve greater progress through virtual reality that is more realistic than reality.

Therefore, the future that BH Real will lead in the future will be made through games that are more realistic than reality.

It’s not just a game.

It is within a certain frame of the game, but something outside that frame.

Yes.

A huge footprint for human progress.

‘In the future, humanity will develop faster and more effectively through BH Real… Did I say?’

Yang Yang-gwang looked away from the wall and thought.

It was a really plausible message.

I think you can guess what the employees were thinking at the time.

We are not simply creating entertainment that arouses users’ pleasure or interest, but are doing meaningful work that contributes to the future of mankind… .

‘Perhaps the desire to be recognized was at work?’

Of course, there may have been other reasons why these contents were leaked despite BH’s strong security policy.

anyway…

‘Shall we start soon?’

It was time to get to work.

* * *

After Yang Yang Kwang took over two days from the head office IT manager.

What he did in the first few days was simply to visit all the departments of the company and say hello to the staff again.

“hello. Didn’t you say hello properly on the first day? I was in a hurry to take over, so I have come to greet you properly.”

His idea was to look everywhere possible to get to know the company.

And it soon became clear that the judgment was not wrong.

While visiting each department, Yang Kwang realized that something was special.

‘What is this?’

Even for Yang Yang-gwang, who has no experience in corporate life, there was clearly something strange about the organization chart of BH Real Korea.

When I received a brief orientation from the human resources department on the first day and was given an overall explanation of the company, I thought it was just okay.

However, as soon as he met the employees and went out to get specific information, Yang Gwang was gradually able to realize that.

Isn’t it obvious that this is the topic of conversation between the first time we met?

Except for a really brief exploration of each other’s personalities, most of them were descriptions of the company considering the position of the newcomers and the contents of each job.

But as I listened, something strange happened.

The departments in BH Real Korea all have back-office functions such as HR, finance, and general affairs.

Back office refers to the functions that support business units, that is, business units.

In order for an organization to exist, there must be business functions and related departments that generate profits, but there seems to be no such thing.

‘BH Real Korea… Well, is it because of the governor?’

In general, in overseas branches, back office functions are first deployed to establish a corporation, and business departments are deployed after establishment.

This is because, from the head office’s point of view, it is not desirable to consist only of employees dispatched from the headquarters in overseas branches.

For local business and for cost reduction, it is a natural procedure to hire locals to form an overseas branch.

And this traditional method requires a certain amount of time.

Yang Gwang mutters to himself as he recalls information about BH Real Korea in his head.

‘Hasn’t it been a year? Well, then it could be… ‘

Yang Yang-gwang, who tried to understand by creating his own rational reason.

But after a while, another question popped up in his head.

‘What else is this?’

The department that seems to be business-related is the Business Management team.

However, this team also had a strange smell.

If there are no business departments doing business, what kind of business are you managing?

But, of course, there was no one who could explain Yang Gwang’s questions to him in the first place.

However, it was difficult to show that he was curious about such things, so he just boiled his stomach.

I had tea time with Korean staff several times and indirectly asked questions in this way and that, but they didn’t seem to know much either.

And not long after, Yang Gwang realized the reason himself.

The heads of all departments are all Americans.

Management, they did not seem to share relevant information with local staff.

‘Probably not.’

Deciding that he had nothing to gain from Korean employees, he decided to move in earnest.

Now that you have a rough idea of the situation, you can make an appropriate plan and execute it accordingly.

After all, the longer it was, the longer the tail was.

Although he is in charge of IT, there is nothing he can do with the given administrator privileges.

Yang Yang-gwang’s eyes lit up.

To achieve your goals quickly, you need the highest privileges.

So the goal is to be the branch manager of BH Real Korea.

How can a junior level, who has just arrived, work for a branch manager?

‘What… It’s not difficult.’

Still, the conversations I had with the Korean staff were not very useless.

This is because the branch manager heard that the weekly report meeting with the BH Real headquarters in the US is held every Monday at 10:00 pm.

Yang Yang-gwang carried out the plan.

* * *

“You’re still here!”

Yang Yang-gwang made the Internet connection in the branch manager’s office not smooth at the time of the meeting.

Then, the branch manager who had a problem with his work urgently called Seo Woo-min, who was in charge of IT, who was still at the company, because he had a schedule to check the IT equipment after work.

Then, when he told me I needed to look at the computer, I gave up, and when it was time for the meeting, I headed to the video conference room.

Sitting in front of the branch manager’s open computer screen, what he did was simple.

All I had to do was click on the link in the e-mail from outside.

And it was enough just to delete the email from the branch manager’s mailbox.

To avoid unnecessary suspicion, Yang Gwang went straight into the video conference room quietly and reported to the branch manager that the problem had been resolved.

And on the way out of the conference room, I headed straight to the server room.

After infiltrating the internal network of BH Real Korea, he began to check information on the business status in Korea.

And among them, we first looked at those classified as top secrets that only the branch manager could access.

‘Hmm, there’s one more server room besides this one. Where are you? what are you writing? in Korea… facility?’

A quick glance revealed that all of the top-secret materials were related to other facilities in Korea.

And the data stated that:

That there is another server room in it.

Looking at the rough specifications of the server room, it was much larger than the server room of BH Real Korea here.

At this level, it is not an exaggeration to say that the main audience has been turned over.

Yang Gwang-gwang, who had been immersed in thought for a moment, widened his eyes.

It was a Yang Gwanggwang who seemed to know something only now.

Why are there only back office functions here?

What the hell does the business management department manage?

‘This facility is the business of BH Real Korea… !’

It was clear that everything at BH Real Korea was to operate this facility.

* * *

Upon entering the facility, an inside view that could not be seen from the outside unfolded.

Even from the inside, the security was strict.

Maybe that’s why, in the three buildings inside, there’s a feeling of suffocating tension.

‘Isn’t it a lot bigger than I thought?’

Access to the server room located here was impossible even with the authority of the BH Real Korea branch manager.

No, at first it felt as if this facility and BH Real Korea were separate corporations.

It seemed that BH Real Korea was only playing the role of supporting and monitoring the facility.

The server room of this facility is not accessible from outside, so I had to go there myself.

BH Real Korea was located between this facility and the connection between the facility and BH Real’s headquarters in the United States, whether it was for security reasons or an effort to hide the facility as much as possible.

What Yang Yang-gwang did to get here was simple.

First, there was a problem with this facility, so it was pretending that BH Real Korea was not receiving information, and it was just that the connection with BH Real’s headquarters was temporarily suspended.

While he looked around, the car came to a stop at the entrance of the building in the center of the facility.

Yang Yang-gwang, who was following Robert, recalls a word.

A word that is mentioned only in one of the top secret documents.

‘Ubermensch Project… ?’

He realized that the word he had almost overlooked was the key.

Yang Yang-gwang lifts his head and looks at the building standing in front of him now.

This is the reason for the existence of BH Real Korea, and it is probably because this facility was built according to this project.

Ubermensch Project.

‘Is it German?’

Yang Yang-gwang, who was about to find the meaning, smiled and gave up neatly.

That’s because most of the top-secret projects have titles that cause misinterpretation to hide their reality.

As if during World War I, when Britain first tried to develop a tank, the word “Water Tank” was used as a camouflage name for the project, so tanks are still commonly referred to as tanks.

Yang Gwang thought as he followed Robert as he hurriedly entered the building.

Whatever the project name,

You’ll soon find out what’s so secretly hidden.
