University of South Korea in the second semester.
Early on campus, chilly winds came. At first glance it was unusual that the Royal Road Ltd. Unicorn would schedule a tour for the Virtual Reality Department.
They scheduled a visit to the Institute that would last two nights and three days to be stuck in school.
All college students had their own companies in mind.
However, most of them wanted to be in the world’s largest revenue and creative company from its first three years of establishment. Students from the Virtual Reality Department of Korea University and other universities were invited.
“I can’t wait to see it. We have to stay for two nights and three days?”
“I wonder if the company is really as great as they say it is.”
In order to secure the degree of media coverage, the students were thoroughly screened and their anticipation rose.
Of course, Unicorn’s field trips came at a cost, and made the Royal Road Players drop their responsibilities in the game. Lee Hyun thought that all of this was futile.
“Yes, and if you write within the circle of the exam form then you’re eligible to get a job!”
The entrance exam that students take for Mills elementary school was harder. It was not clear if being hired in this company was something to be proud of.
It didn’t make sense. The Unicorn Company could afford the best doctoral talent, and was only hiring mediocre applicants.
The Virtual Reality Department itself was not established when he graduated from High School and got various jobs.
Since the place was crawling with personnel from the tour, the news about the job opportunity quickly traveled through word of mouth.
Lee Hyun’s spirit fell because of the tour schedule.
Being away from Royal Road for 2 nights and 3 days was a great financial loss.
However, this was not as greatly felt in the North when compared with the Versailles Continent group that was covered in catastrophe.
There were many things that needed the attention of Morata’s Lord. There were plenty of things that needed to be caught up on.
“By the way, students, these three-day and two-night tour is important in our academic calendar!”
“This is slavery.”
Lee Hyun raised his hand abruptly as soon as the lecture was over.
“Student Lee Hyun, Do you have any questions?”
Because Lee Hyun had never asked questions in his class, Professor Ju Jong Hoon asked in wonder.
“I have a really busy schedule at home, so can I skip the scheduled tour?”
He couldn’t stand to lose any money, Lee Hyun quickly pulled out various reasons such as Society’s demands over class and other schedules that he has to meet.
Exceptions are only exceptions when they're once or twice, but now it felt like he was a wanted suspect!
The Professor replied sharply.
“You may not skip the tour.”
“It’s really important, I have personal reasons that I must attend to...”
“Tours are also classes. If you’re not going to attend them you would need to take supplemental learning during the vacation period.”
Eventually, the reluctant Lee Hyun became involved in the tour.
The students from the University of Korea rode the bus, and stopped in front of the high-rise building, Unicorn headquarters.
There were students from other University who had arrived earlier.
The Unicorn Company authorized a total of 230 students to attend the tour.
Lee Hyun looked up at the building of the headquarters as he got off the bus.
"It’s been a long time."
The last time he was here was when his character climbed the top of the Hall of Honor.
He came straight for the money that was made from all the promotions and advertisements.
Unicorn was already aware of how good Lee Hyun was.
“As sharp as a razor, an honest company violating a payment date has never been seen.”
Money was always well spent by the best of companies.
The public relations staff met the students, and they looked back and saw several departments in the head office.
Their workers were either having a pleasant meeting or a conversation about their wonderful view of the world.
In addition, there were special facilities for the staff!
A Music Hall, a fitness center, a swimming pool, a cinema, and of course the capsule rooms were a given.
The female Public Relations employee who guided them to the restaurant said.
“You can make a saga about meals here with the fresh ingredients prepared by our professional chefs.”
The cafeteria was on par with that of a five star hotel.
“Do the employees have maternity leave?”
A female student had raised her concern. Maybe having a family and raising children were a problem for the company.
"Only once for a year, but as a rule, the holiday is a nominal fee. When you give birth you will receive a paid leave for one year."
The one year maternity leave was very generous. They also gave the child a college tuition fund of 40’ days worth of salary.
The difference in the working conditions to Weed’s sculpture Yellowy from Royal Road was like Heaven and Earth. Here they had proper food and were well pampered.
Sang Jun Choi asked the female Public Relations officer about other useful employee information.
“How… how much is the salary of a new Unicorn employee?”
All the students’ attention were fixed on the Public Relations officer.
“It depends on the department. As company policy, the specific salary cannot be disclosed to outsiders. However, the bonuses and profit allocation is in the excess of…”
In the end, the most important information, the annual salary was not told.
But the students knew from the news organizations that the new employees of Unicorn receive a ton of salary.
Even after all the welfare the company gives to its employees it still receives astronomical profits from its different businesses. As long as you qualify they will give you a lot of money.
Lee Hyun had to have more tangible evidence.
Since the contract in the Hall of Fame, the unicorn company had sent him four ribs and a fruit set every time it was the holidays. Packaged individually in times, and department store receipts were still stuck showing how much the Unicorn's wealth was spent on the gift package.
"If this is about money... How much money did the company spend on the many toilets with the embossed toilet paper?"
A world-class company which was truly differentiated, can be said that they cared about its staff.
The last time he was there he met with Yoon Soo Jang, Lee Hyun wasn’t able to meet him now because he was dedicated to a long-term project within the Project Relations Department.
There was no employee there who recognized Lee Hyun.
That was the end of their first day at Unicorn Headquarters!
The next day, they were scheduled to visit the factories and laboratories.
The University of Korea students were placed in a resort like hotel with dinner and other accommodations.
The next day, also in accordance with a fixed schedule as if it was a school trip on the employee's description and move with it.
“This is the factory that creates the core system of the capsule.”
Eight robots are assembled and tested simultaneously. It can walk, perform basic commands, and can move the equipment.
The robot which has been inputted by various processes was directly produced by a subsidiary company of Unicorn, Node.
The company had a wide array of products. Be it robots intended to guide blind people, robots designed for cleaning, or an industrial robot that sliced meat for a fish company
The size of the company was indeed colossal
The net profit of this company is so huge that it can't be rivaled by two or three companies combined revenue
Lee Hyun is hostile to these business firms.
“It is my most formidable rival”
When you work in a construction site, you will see how robots are heavily involved. They are substituted for the purpose of carrying heavy materials, cleaning the windows of tall buildings, or any dangerous field of work.
Even though they are just subsidiary company of Unicorn, they still reap huge monthly cash earnings. In fact, 9 years ago before the Royal Road capsule was released, the production cost of the capsule was astronomical and with that, they didn’t reap a profit. But Unicorn’s advanced control technology was developed further. Now, Unicorn has firm grasp of various sectors like electronics, machineries, chemicals, banking, and retail.
