I Became a Genius Engineer

Chulwoo Lee (9)

After the fuss in the afternoon, I returned home with Dad.

“Your son suffered.”

“Really, I wondered what would happen if I smashed them all down. But if it works well even if I break it that much, doesn’t that mean it works almost semi-permanently?”

“Isn’t it? Since it’s installed outdoors, I thought I’d make it sturdy.”

“That’s true… Everyone makes them strong, but I think one or two break down.”

“What do you mean?”

“No, do you know how many times Daddy’s tractor and boiler broke down? They must have built it knowing that it would get dusty, but it breaks down every year. But the AHS you made? It doesn’t break even if you deliberately pour dirt on it.”

Certainly, it worked well even when covered in mud.

“hehehe. Did you do well?”

“Well done. My son! Thanks to you, I’m comfortable too. We’ve already arrived home, let’s go.”

When I opened the front door and entered, my mother greeted me.

“Honey, is your son here?”

“uh.”

“Mom, I’m here.”

“Son, did you hear anything unusual happened on the farm today?”

“I did have some work.”

“My son has suffered.”

It’s like I’m not the mother I used to be. These days, when I look at myself, he says a lot of positive things like ‘You’ve worked hard’, ‘You’re great’, and ‘You’re extraordinary’.

These days, even if you play games, you don’t say anything.

“Ha ha, no what.”

“I make something like that for my dad.”

“ha ha ha…….”

Actually, rather than for my dad, I got caught by chance.

“Is everyone supper yet? I’ve prepared food. Eat.”

“yes!”

“huh.”

Mom said that she had a lot of trouble today, and cooked savory soybean paste stew with a nice beef side dish.

Beef side dishes, how long have you been eating them?

In the past, it was such food that I couldn’t even dream of because I was poor, but these days, I think my housekeeping has improved a little.

Maybe it’s because my tuition doesn’t go in?

After dinner, my family was sitting in the living room and relaxing.

“Son, eat the apple.”

“Oh, I’ll eat it myself.”

“Oh, I’ll leave it here so eat it.”

After resting for a while, it was 9:00 PM.

“It’s 9 o’clock. Let’s see the news.”

When I turned on the LBC channel, the news was starting.

-Hello, let’s start the LBC 9 o’clock news. This is the first news. As China’s piracy problem comes to light… … .

“Tsk tsk How long do Chinese guys use pirated programs like that?”

Dad said something while watching the news.

“It’s a fake country.”

“They don’t seem to have the concept of patents and copyrights.”

“ha ha ha.”

Come to think of it, I heard that CAK is going abroad because there is no demand.

I was kind of worried.

– This is the next news. Cheol-Woo Lee, a student of Donghae University’s entrepreneurship club, created a fully automated greenhouse and is becoming a hot topic. Reporter Min Jeong-ho covered the story.

Finally, the news we’ve been waiting for is out.

“Hey… did you hear the news about our son?”

“Dad’s coming too? You did an interview.”

“hahahahaha. It’s the first time I’ve been on TV in 50 years. It’s all thanks to you, son.”

“Be quiet. Listen.”

I was chatting with my dad, so my mom nagged me.

The screen changed to show my dad’s farm.

-hello. This is Reporter Min Jeong-ho. This time, a fully automated greenhouse was created by the hands of students and is becoming a hot topic. I am on the scene now. hello? Will you be Mr. Lee Cheol-woo?

My face started appearing on the TV screen.

“Ah, it’s so embarrassing to see you like this.”

“There’s nothing to be proud of. It’s something to be proud of.”

“Ha ha ha. Still.”

-yes. I am Lee Cheol-woo.

-I heard that student Cheol-woo made a house notification before making this automated greenhouse. Please explain that for a moment.

-yes. House Alert is a system that measures the greenhouse temperature and shows it on the app.

-Oh, unlike today’s fully automated greenhouses, it only served as a remote measurement.

-yes. That’s right.

– Then how did you come up with that item?

-uh… … . Last winter, the boiler in my father’s greenhouse didn’t work. That’s why we suffered cold damage, and we ruined all of our crops for the year. So, I was so sad to see it, so I made it.

“Ha ha ha! I was sad! Were you sad?”

Dad teased me a lot.

“No… even Dad knows. The reporter told me to say that.”

“ha ha ha.”

“no way.”

“Why, isn’t it good? Everyone will see Cheol-woo as a filial son.”

“no…….”

I’m sorry to say this, but looking back on the past, isn’t it a bit far from Hyoja?

-You are a great filial piety.

-ha ha ha… … .

The me on the television was scratching my head.

-Thanks to that filial piety, such an amazing item could have been created. Please explain about the automated greenhouse for a moment.

-yes. I’m Donghae University… … .

Professor Choi Man-soo made sure to tell me the name of the university, so I had no choice but to do it.

Perhaps, that was the professor’s purpose. I called the broadcasting station because of that.

– I hear you. That’s amazing. Is the amount of sunlight, temperature, atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration, and soil moisture completely automatic?

-yes. That’s right.

-And if you look here, you can see the traces of use. How long has it been since you installed it here?

-Ah, this is a durability test.

– You said that the durability is amazing. Also, I heard that a special technology was applied to this automated greenhouse. What the hell is that?

-It is called free vector gear. You can freely control the axis, and the durability is considerable.

I on the TV held up a free vector gear and said.

-Oh, it looks strange.

-That’s right. Here these parts are free to move, setting axes and rotational directions.

– It’s a really great skill. Next, let’s meet Cheol-woo’s father.

This time, Dad appeared on television.

-hello. Cheol-woo’s father, how long have you been farming?

– It’s been 3 years now.

– What was the most difficult thing after returning to farming?

– It’s just that I don’t have time. I thought it was easy and jumped in, but there are not one or two things to be concerned about. You have to give them water on time, give them medicine, take care of the temperature, cover them with blankets every day, and they don’t have time to rest for a single day. Because of that, I never went on a family trip.

The father on TV talked about it as if it was really difficult.

-Oh, I see. Then, how did you feel after using the automated greenhouse your son made this time?

– I really want to bow to my son. Every day was hell, but thanks to these things, I was relieved. No, it’s not that I’m lazy, it’s just that I don’t have to work. I’m thinking about finding another job these days. ha ha ha.

The dad on the TV was laughing cheerfully, but the dad next to me was quite serious.

“Thank you, son.”

… … . The words just didn’t come from television.

“huh?”

“Thank you.”

A word from Dad.

A very strict and difficult father. If it was like the old days, I would have been busy avoiding it.

Hearing those words made me feel even more friendly.

“No, it’s nice to see my dad working comfortably.”

I also answered sincerely.

“hahahahaha, Lee Cheol-woo! You’ve really grown up. You’re a real filial son. Now go anywhere and live confidently and proudly. This father has no regrets even if he dies.”

“What does dying mean? You have to live for a long, long time until you paint sh*t on the wall.”

“I hate that.”

“Do you think this is the first time you’ve seen a father and son talking like this hahahaha?”

My mother, who was watching from the side, helped me with a drink.

Hyunsung Motors.

It is the best automobile company in Korea, and it was one of the largest companies in the world.

It sells about 4 million units per quarter and more than 10 million units a year, and it is known that there is no road in the world where Hyunsung Motors did not roll.

A conglomerate whose market capitalization exceeds 50 trillion won in Hanwha.

Seo Jeong-ho, the team leader of the design team, one of the core departments of such a conglomerate, was watching the same visual television as Cheol-woo.

– This is the next news. Cheol-Woo Lee, a student at Donghae University Entrepreneurship Club… … .

“Oh, what a great friend?

He was watching the news without thinking.

-The automated greenhouse is… … .

“Hey, did you make all those systems by yourself? That they don’t break down? That must be a joke.”

I thought it was exaggerated to create an issue, as news naturally does.

-It is called free vector gear. … … .

As I continued to watch, there was one thing that made me doubt my own eyes.

“What? That? What?”

He is a car designer.

I have studied many gears and seen many power trains. However, what I am seeing on TV now I have not seen anywhere else.

‘How the hell does that thing transmit power?’

Even looking at it with his own eyes, he couldn’t figure out how the structure of the gear came about.

‘But is that for real? The axis can be different, or it can be bent. What is that?’

He watched television, rubbing his eyes several times.

The reason for doing so was simple. It was because what I was seeing right in front of me was a completely unrealistic gear.

‘No, are the laws of physics broken?’

It couldn’t have been, but he couldn’t help but think so.

He runs to the computer right away, Kypris. Entered the patent information search service.

And I searched for free vector gear.

「Result 1.」

“One. Free vector gear. (Inventor: Lee Cheol-woo)」

「Waiting for registration.」

I was able to find the results I was looking for, and I recognized them right away.

I looked at the contents of the patent for a while.

“Wow… are you crazy? You implemented it this way? Wow…”

He thought it was worth researching.

‘If I do well, I’ll be able to make the design that was turned upside down the other day?’

In a way, it may seem obvious, but in general, a car design comes out and the design is matched there. After designing, don’t match the design.

So the design team and the design team fight a lot.

If you ask the design, ‘Why can’t we implement these things?’, the design team will answer, ‘It is physically difficult, it receives a lot of resistance, and power cannot be properly transmitted.’ confront, etc.

He immediately started researching free vector gears.

same time

Blue Light CEO Kim Hak-soo came across the news while working overtime at the company.

“Hey, really… that Lee Cheol-woo, I’m a guy, I’m a guy.”

“Isn’t that great?”

Director Park replied.

“How could a person do that? What on earth can’t he do? Seriously, if he stayed at our company… it would have been nice.”

“hahahahaha, CEO, wake up to your dream. That friend, I will unfold a bigger meaning.”

“Director Park made me feel comfortable these days. Are you really trying to climb?”

The representative said jokingly.

“ha ha ha.”

“Yes, you are right. He is a friend who will become great in the future.”

“By the way, how’s the CAK going?”

“There are a few reactions here and there, but um… it’s lukewarm. There are many places that don’t want to do it because they don’t know well, and there are many places that don’t trust something made by a small company like us.”

They also knew that they were small and medium-sized businesses that had nothing to offer.

“As expected, I thought it would be a hit as soon as I saw it, but business isn’t as easy as I thought.”

“But there is a place where the reaction comes.”

“Where are you?”

“China, DT.”

“DT? What company is it?”

“It’s a tech startup that’s been attracting Series B-scale investment this time and is growing a lot.”

“Do you say they use CAK there?”

“I have a bite.”

“Wow, if China had attracted Series B investment… wouldn’t it be a joke?

“yes.”

“But it’s because it’s China…”

“why?”

“No, the news about China’s piracy just came out.”

“No matter how much they do, won’t they pay the royalties?”

“I guess so, right?”
