Chapter 281: 281
President Song had been treating Gun-Ho as his younger brother when he worked as a vice president of S Group . Gun-Ho used to refer to him as his older brother as well . However, after he joined GH Mobile, President Song changed his attitude toward Gun-Ho . Gun-Ho was the owner of the company after all, and he had to respect that . President Song seemed to be submissive and gentle with Gun-Ho now . Just like the internal auditor, who used to work as a branch manager of a bank and a vice president of Capital before joining GH, became submissive with Gun-Ho, President Song was becoming submissive as well .

Gun-Ho stretched himself in his office when he was left by himself . He felt like his head and mind became clear and fresh again .
'I am really hoping that President Song helps GH Mobile to increase its sales revenue dramatically . It will incur higher expenses in the process, of course, but I will be able to make a significant amount of money as the sales revenue gets substantial . '
Gun-Ho then thought .
'Once GH Mobile or Dyeon Korea started making a substantial amount of money, I will probably let either company acquire GH Building in Seoul . The loan for the building is too much . If one of my companies with a significant amount of revenue acquires that building, I believe I can recover my 40 billion won that I invested in that building . No matter which company, either GH Mobile or Dyeon Korea, purchases the building, the building is mine anyway . '
He then thought .
'Let me see . Lymondell Dyeon owns 50% of Dyeon Korea . Even though I want Dyeon Korea to acquire the building, Lymondell Dyeon will probably reject the suggestion . Even though I successfully let Dyeon Korea acquire the building, I will have to discuss everything with Lymondell Dyeon, and it will intervene in managing the building too . Let's opt out of that option then . It's not wise for me to let Dyeon Korea purchase the building and bring Lymondell Dyeon into the building management business . What about GH Media? Well, it's a tiny company, I don't even need to consider it . Hmm . Then I am left with the option of GH Mobile acquiring the building . President Song has 3% of GH Mobile . The question is whether he would voice the building matter with his 3% share . I guess I can just ignore it since I have a 97% ownership of GH Mobile . '
Gun-Ho was thinking of all the options he could think of with GH Building, he received a call from China . It was Professor Jien Wang .
"President Goo? It's me, Jien Wang . "
"Oh, Jien Wang!"
"I'm going to Seoul next week . "
"Really? You sound exciting, Jien . Any good news?"
"There will be a symposium in Seoul National University, and I will be taking part in it . Why don't you come? Oh, you said you are not in Seoul, but in a province, right?"

"How long are you staying? I can make a reservation at a hotel for you . "
"Don't worry about it . I will be staying for four days, and Seoul National University will find a room for me to stay . I think I will stay in one of their dormitories designed for professors . "
"Really? That sounds good . "
"I will have one day off during the fourth day of my stay . Let's play golf with Attorney Young-Jin Kim . "
"Sure . Just give me the date when you know it for sure . I will make a reservation for the three of us . "
"According to Attorney Kim, there are lots of nice golf courses in Cheonan City where you are right now . "
"That's right . Come to Cheonan City then . I want to show you my factory too . "
"That sounds great . "
When Gun-Ho got off the phone with Professor Jien Wang, Director Dong-Chan Kim entered the office .
"I have something to report to you, sir . "
"You could have just given me a call for a report . You didn't have to come all the way from Asan City to Jiksan Town for a report . "

"We moved into the container office already . It looks nicer than I expected . "
"Good work . "
"And I showed Mr . Adam Castler the villa with two rooms . He seemed to be content . He said he liked it . He also said the villa looks much better than the one he stayed when he worked in Mexico . "
"Really? That's good . "
"And forming a Dyeon Korea's operating committee was an excellent idea, sir . "
"That's nice . I knew it would turn out great because our executive committee here in GH Mobile is working great . I knew the same system would apply well to Dyeon Korea too . "
"Dyeon Korea's operating committee is currently composed of five members: myself, Mr . Adam Castler, GH Mobile's general affairs director and accounting manager, and Director Yoon . We all know well and we are familiar with the work we are doing, so we were able to answer any questions Mr . Adam Castler asked so far . "
"Are you having the operating committee's meeting once a week?"
"Yes, sir . "
"Once a week should be enough . If you have the meeting too often, that could disturb a daily work of everyone . And by having a meeting regularly, you can all learn things from each other . "
"That's right . And having the accounting manager as a member of the committee was a good decision as well . "
"Really?"

"The accounting manager is extremely meticulous, maybe because the manager is female . She keeps records of two companies' initial investment funds of 50,000 dollars from each party, and gives us a report on the expenses during each meeting . "
"Hmm . "
"What we spent on Mr . Adam Castler's staying takes a significant part of our current expenses, including his hotel, car rental, meals, and etc . When Mr . Adam Castler realizes that, he told me that he wanted to move to the villa as soon as possible . We are using the joint venture's funds for everything except the construction cost . "
"We don't want Mr . Adam Castler to spend too much money, but don't give him too much pressure for it . "
"Understood, sir . I will ask the accounting manager to send the weekly expense report to you, sir . "
"Don't do that . You get the report and review it . I don't have to review it . "
"But…"
"I have so many things I have to think about right now . Just do as I say . "
"Yes, sir . "
"How did the hiring process go?"
"We just completed the first interview . We will have the second interview tomorrow . Mr . Adam Castler will join us for tomorrow's interview . We will have the interview in the small meeting room here in this building . I don't think it's a good idea having a job interview in a container office . "
"Okay . Sounds good . "
"And, umm… about the interpreter—Mr . Lee . "
"What about him? Something happened to him?"
"He is still young and he is 53 years old . I think he can still work vigorously . "
"I think so . "
"He has an extensive work experience as an employee and he had worked abroad before . I think he can be an asset to our company—the joint venture . I haven't talked to him about this . I wanted to talk with you first . It's just my personal opinion . "
"Hmm . "
"When we sell Dyeon Korea's products to China and Southeast Asia, President Min-Hyeok Kim can handle the China market . I think Mr . Lee can take charge of the Southeast Asia market . "
"Well… You are right . He speaks English fluently and he used to run a branch office abroad… His qualification fits the job . "
"Since he has been working with us as an interpreter for our joint venture matters, he is now very familiar with our operating system . "
"I know that…The thing that bothers me is that I heard if someone had quit his employer previously, then he wouldn't be very loyal to the next employer . "
"I don't think that applies to him…"
"Well, I will discuss this with President Jeong-Sook Shin in GH Media . She was the one who recommended him to us . I do like him too . Let's think about it . "
"Yes, sir . "
Director Dong-Chan Kim gave a bow to Gun-Ho and left the office .
