Gun-Ho invested an additional amount of 3 billion won to Mulpasaneop after acquiring the company . It was not for increasing capital stock, but it was more like the company borrowed money from its president for a short period of time . Once the company got back on track, Gun-Ho would be able to get his money back easily .

‘I gave 2 billion won to the president when I acquired this company, and I put an additional 3 billion won as I lent it to the company . So I used a total of 5 billion won to Mulpasaneop so far, and I won’t spend any more money even a penny to this company . I will pay the existing debt with the company’s revenue as I run the company . ’

Gun-Ho called for the auditor .

“Let’s pay off the overdue wages first, and use the remaining funds to pay the raw material suppliers . ”

“Yes, sir . ”

“As to the raw materials, don’t pay for the outstanding balance to the suppliers just yet, but pay for the new materials we are getting from them now . And pay them on time . ”

“Yes, sir . As long as they receive the payments for the materials they currently supply, they won’t ask to be paid for the overdue payments right away . ”

“Mulpasaneop pays on time to suppliers ever since its new president joined the company . ”

The rumors started spreading in the field .

Jong-Suk Park came to Asan City from Yangju City, Gyeonggi Province to visit Gun-Ho’s factory . When he looked at the factory, he was astonished .

“Wow, it is a big factory . ”

Jong-Suk had to sign on the visitor book at the main gate and receive a visitor’s pass in order to enter the factory .

“I can’t believe this is Gun-Ho bro’s . This is huge . ”

Once Jong-Suk arrived at the management department, he could see a lot of office workers in uniform .

“Hi, I came here to see the president . ”

“May I tell who’s here?”

“I am his close friend . ”

“Did you make an appointment with him?”

“Yes, I did . ”

“Okay, please give me one moment . ”

After quite a while, the staff came back and took Jong-Suk to the president’s office . Gun-Ho was reading a newspaper at the conference table that was situated in the middle of the large president’s office .

“Hey, Jong-Suk . Come and have a seat here with me . ”

“Bro, congratulations . It feels kind of difficult to even call you bro . ”

“What? I have to be your brother because I can’t be your sister, man . ”

“No, I mean… We seem to have a big gap in our social positions now . ”

“Don’t be silly . Do you want coffee? Or green tea?”

Gun-Ho picked up the interphone and asked for tea .

“Please bring us two cups of green tea . ”

“Okay, sir . ”

Jong-Suk could hear a friendly voice of a woman over the phone .

Jong-Suk was thinking what to say, and then he just drank his green tea .

“Did you bring your luggage?”

“My luggage? Oh, no bro . I just came here today to see the factory . ”

“What do you think?”

“It’s way more awesome than I expected . You are a mysterious man, bro . ”

“You kept silly talking today . What’s the matter with you?”

Gun-Ho picked up the interphone again .

“Please let the general affairs manager in . ”

After a moment, a middle-aged man entered the room . He looked like he was in his mid-40s and he was wearing a tie .

“Why don’t you show this man here around the factory and introduce him to the factory manager . He will be working with us starting tomorrow as a production manager . ”

“Yes, sir . ”

The general affairs manager gave a 90-degree bow to Gun-Ho who was a lot younger than him .

“Umm…”

When Jong-Suk hesitated, Gun-Ho frowned .

“Just go see the factory!”

When Jong-Suk went to the factory, he could see injection molding machines and extruder machines that were running vigorously while making loud noises .

Jong-Suk’s eyes widened as he saw the production field .

“Wow . This is amazing . There were lots of machines I’ve never handled before . Are they all hydraulic press machines?”

Jong-Suk was intrigued by the machines and the production field . He checked the machines and observed the workers closely in the field .

The factory manager was outside the factory talking with an electrical inspector . The general affairs manager approached the factory manager and bowed to him . The factory manager was at the managing director level, and he was in his late 50s .

“Sir, this is Mr . Jong-Suk Park . He will join us as a production manager . ”

Jong-Suk bowed to the factory manager .

“Production manager? Did you bring your resume?”

“I didn’t bring it today, sir, but I will bring it tomorrow . ”

“Where did you work before coming to our company?”

Jong-Suk hesitated for a moment . The factory he was working for was a small factory; he was just a team leader there . However, he would now be taking a production manager position in Mulpasaneop .

“I am in Yangju City right now . I have been working with a repair and maintenance team rather than in a production team . ”

“You will be good at fixing the machines then . Do you know how to read drawings? What about calculating production cost?”

Jong-Suk was hesitant . As the factory manager mentioned about some kind of production cost thing, Jong-Suk thought this wouldn’t be an easy job for him .

“I will learn . ”

“You also need to know how to read a recipe and a simple chemical equation . By the way, you look very young . How old are you?”

“I am 33 . ”

“Can you handle the work as a production manager? Well, you should be capable since the president recommended you . I look forward to working with you . ”

The factory manager extended his hand for a handshake .

After the factory tour, Jong-Suk came back to Gun-Ho’s office .

“Did you see the factory? Did you talk to the factory manager?”

“I did . Whew . I am worried . I’m not sure if I can handle this job . All those production assistant managers and team leaders look a lot older than me . ”

“Don’t worry! It’s okay . Do you think I am the president because I am older than all of them?”

“They know you recommended me to this position . If I screw up, they will blame you . I don’t want to cause you any trouble . ”

“Believe in yourself, bro . You are the MacGyver Park . I know you will do great . That factory manager will have to retire soon . While he is here, learn from him as much as you can . ”

“I can’t call you brother here, right?”

“Huh? You can still call me brother when we are alone, and you can address me as President when we go outside this office . If you didn’t bring your luggage today, pack your stuff and move here tomorrow . Get a OneRoomTel in the Asan City area . For the employment papers, ask the general affairs manager on your way out . ”

Gun-Ho received a call from Min-Hyeok in China .

“I heard Jong-Suk just joined Mulpasaneop . ”

“Yeah . He is having a hard time now while learning new things in the production field . ”

“I’m sure he will do just fine . He was not good at studying, but he is very observant and a really smart guy . ”

“I know he will do well . He doesn’t have much experience in the production field, but I know he is very good at maintaining and fixing stuff . ”

“Jong-Suk… oh, maybe I should address him as Manager Park from now . Once Manager Park gets familiar with his work there, I will ask him to look at the machines at our factory in China . I see some problems with some machines here since they were sitting here for too long . ”

“Okay . I will send him there soon . ”

“Oh, and I was told by the Jinxi Construction Company that they are done with the paperwork to end the joint venture, and they will send our fund tomorrow . So, please check your bank account after 3 pm tomorrow . ”

“Okay . I won’t touch that fund though . Min-Hyeok, see how much you would need to operate Mulpa Automotive . I need to know the number so I could prepare the money . ”

“Okay, I will . Once the fund for the joint venture is verified, I will move to Ohyeon where our Mulpa Automotive factory is at right away . I already found a condo there; it’s 17 pyung large and big enough for myself . ”

“17 pyung? Why didn’t you get one with 25 pyung? You are the president of that company, remember?”

“Nah . It’s not necessary . It would be a waste . That condo is a luxurious one, so its monthly rent is 3,500 Yuan . ”

“You will have to return your Audi to the joint venture, right? Once you get to Ohyeon, get a long-term rental car—Audi, okay?”

“Thank you . ”

“And don’t forget to hire a chauffeur . Don’t drive on your own . If you as a foreigner get involved in a car accident in China, they will rip you off . ”

“Got it . Thank you . ”
