The presentation was not bad; it was somewhat successful . Gun-Ho was not satisfied though, but Seukang Li and the president of Jinxi Construction Company evaluated it as a success .

"Sh*t!"
"What's wrong?"
"We had 100 companies that came to see our presentation . And only 6 of them made a contract . That's not enough at all . "
"Don't worry about it . If we add two companies that already made a contract in China, we have eight companies so far . "
"Our goal is 50 companies . How long will it take to have all 50 companies in the industrial park?"
"Having eight companies is a good start . Once we build eight factories in the industrial park, other companies will notice it, and they will ask about their opportunity with us . "
"You think so?"
"Also, you said 17 companies want to visit the site, right? Some of them will make a contract after seeing the industrial park . "
"But we have nothing really there yet . Will they make a contract without seeing an actual factory?"
"Actually, we are currently building a factory to show to the visitors . It's like a model home for residential houses . It will be completed on the 25th of this month . So you just make sure to schedule the tour after the 25th . "
Manager Kang made a suggestion .
"I will send a letter to the 17 companies who wanted a tour of the industrial park . We can make a schedule, send a letter, and ask them to pay 100,000 won for the tour application fee . Those companies that pay 100,000 won will not cancel their tour . "
"Hmm .
"That's how travel agencies do it for tours abroad . "
"Okay, then Min-Hyeok can make the tour schedule, and Manager Kang can write the letters . "
"Okay, sir . I will assume that they would leave for China at the end of this month . "
Gun-Ho took the people who came from China, and the company staff to Jongro Tower located in Jongro 2-Ga . It was close to the Koreana Hotel so they all could walk there .
"You have done great work today . Let's have dinner . There is a nice buffet restaurant in Jongro Tower; its name is Top Cloud . They have a very nice view . "

Chinese people loved the buffet restaurant .
"Heun Hao (Good)! Heun Hao!"
They shouted 'Heun Hao . '
The presentation was done, and Gun-Ho now had spare time . GH Development Company was doing good since it just had to collect rent from OneRoomTels .
Manager Kang brought the paperwork to Gun-Ho .
"It's the letter for the tour of the industrial park . "
"Really?"
"And I've attached the program schedule written by Mr . Min-Hyeok Kim, I mean President Kim on the backside of the letter . "
"Hmm, it's a two nights and three days tour . "
"I thought that is adequate . "
"Is this the price for the tour? Isn't it too expensive?"
"According to the travel agency, it is okay to make a high price for the travel expenses if the trip is for the company employees . That's because usually the travel expenses were paid by the company rather than by an individual . "
"Hmm, I see . "
Gun-Ho signed on the paperwork that Manager Kang brought to him .
15 out of 17 companies sent the tour application fee of 100,000 won to Gun-Ho's office . Two companies seemed to decide not to participate .
"Those 15 companies will not cancel the tour since they already paid the tour application fee . "
"Hmm . "

"Also, the travel agency said, if the group has 15 or more than 15 people, we can add one more person for free . If you have someone who you want to send with the tour group, please recommend one . "
"Really? Haha . That's how it works, huh? Then, why don't you go with them, Manager Kang? You haven't seen the industrial park in China yet . This is your opportunity to do so . "
Gun-Ho made a call to Min-Hyeok who was working in China .
"How's it going?"
"It's going well . "
"Really?"
"The factory that we will show to our guets is almost done . Why don't you come and see it?"
"I will come there when there is a board meeting . On the joint venture company's articles of incorporation, who is listed as the board of directors? Is it the president of Jinxi Construction Company, me, Jin-jjong, and kkao-jjong?"
"Yes, that's correct . "
"I believe we have two board meetings per year . I will see you at the next board meeting then . Oh, also tell them that I will send the remaining 1,350,000 dollars of my investment fund today since I previously sent 150,000 dollars already . "
"Today?"
"Yeah . "
"They actually kept asking me when you would send the 1,350,000 dollars to them . I think they need money to build the factory to show to the guests . "
Manager Kang told Gun-Ho that they received the travel expenses from the 15 companies . They charged 1,100,000 won for each person and they received 16,500,000 won .
"Before the trip, we will have a meeting so we can explain to them about the tour . "
"A meeting?"
"Yes . We will talk about the program schedule, and the place we will meet at the airport, and we will also verify their passports and visas . Also, I thought it was a good idea for them to meet each other before the trip . "
"Where will you have the meeting?"

"For the convenience of the people who are in the province, I want to reserve the KTX train station office in Yongsan Station for three hours . "
"Do they have that kind of space at Yongsan Station?"
"Yes, they do . "
"I will ask Min-Hyeok to give the tour group special treatment and kindness . "
"Thank you . "
Gun-Ho opened the stock chart of the Kumho Chemical .
"Hmm, after the stock price went up twice, its trendline is about to change to downward . Maybe I should help the trend by selling some of my stock, about 3 billion won worth of stock . "
Gun-Ho had 30 billion won worth of stock of Kumho Chemical, and decided to sell 10% of it, and keep an eye on the chart .
"Once it becomes a downward trendline, the little investors will roar . "
The departure date of the tour to the industrial park in China came around .
"You are leaving tomorrow?"
"Yes . "
"Min-Hyeok already reported that the factory to show to the guests is completed . And they are building two additional factories right now . "
"Right, I heard of it too . It seems that there are two Korean companies that want to move into the industrial park as soon as possible . One is a Korean company in Korea and the other one is a Korean company currently doing business in China . They already paid their security deposit . "
"The tour group will be able to see the construction site of the factory . "
"I think so . "
"Ms . Ji-young Jeong! Do we have any company policy about the business trip expenses?"
"We don't . "
"Then, give Manager Kang 1,000,000 won for the trip now . "
"Thank you, sir . "
Gun-Ho made a call to Min-Hyeok in China .
"15 people, oh I mean 16 people including Manager Kang will arrive there tomorrow . Treat them well, okay?"
"Don't worry about it . I already reserved the best hotel and the best restaurant for them . The factory is completed, and I was impressed by their skills and technology . It was really quick . "
"Really? I believe Jinxi Construction Company is one of the best companies in the construction field in China . They have a lot of skillful engineers . "
"They already hung a banner that says they are welcoming the Korean companies' tour group . "
"Oh, really?"
"And, they placed a large stone tower at the main entrance of the industrial park . It says 'Jinxi Industrial Park . ' You haven't seen it yet, right? I will take a picture of it and send it to you . "
"Oh, okay . "
"Also, we prepared karaoke for the tour group . Manager Kang said, he would collect the karaoke fee from the people who would participate in it . "
"I see . Well, good luck and I'm counting on you . "
"Don't worry about it!"
"Min-Hyeok, is your monthly salary from the joint venture 5,000 Yuan?"
"Yes . "
"I know it's too little . Just wait until the board meeting . I will raise it then . "
"It's okay . The company pays for my rent, so it's not bad . I send my mom the monthly salary I received in Korea . "
"Really? Let's just do our best here . We will have a bright future . "
"Thank you . "
