Chapter 353: Strategic Change (2) – Part 2
President Jeong-Sook Shin smiled at Gun-Ho’s comment .
“We need to read a trend in a book publishing business . Once a book gains its popularity, people started buying it blindly . Many people don’t want to be excluded from a conversation with a group of people . So they want to read popular books so they could participate in a conversation . ”
“Hmm . I hope everything turns out good as we expect . ”
“Once the French artist—Ms . Marion Kinsky’s art exhibition becomes successful or the Japanese book—The person who wakes up in the morning becomes a bestseller book, I will consider moving GH Media’s office to the GH Building . ”
“Sounds good . Thank you for your great work today . ”
Right after President Jeong-Sook Shin walked out of Gun-Ho’s office, Gun-Ho sent a text message to Seol-Bing .
[Thank you for coming to the Chinese young avant-garde artists’ art exhibition last time . Our art gallery is planning to host another art exhibition . A French artist—the master of color aesthetics –Ms . Marion Kinsky’s artworks will be displayed in our art gallery if everything goes smoothly . ]
Seol-Bing replied .
[I think you are a very knowledgeable man, oppa in a wide range of fields . ]
Gun-Ho sent another text message to Seol-Bing .
[Please visit our art gallery once again to enjoy Ms . Marion Kinsky’s artworks . French art will give you different pleasure and inspiration from Chinese art . ]
Seol-Bing texted,
[I’m afraid that someone might take a picture of me again without my knowledge if I go to your art gallery . ]
Gun-Ho replied,
[I don’t think it will happen again . I will let you know once the date of the exhibition is scheduled . ]
Seol-Bing sent an emoticon with a smiley face .
It was Jong-Suk Park’s wedding day .
Jong-Suk was a popular type among people and maybe that was why there was a substantial number of people who came to his wedding to congratulate him . Literally, half of the employees of GH Mobile attended his wedding as well .
Two tour buses were rented to accommodate the guests from Incheon City and the buses arrived at the wedding hall . Jong-Suk’s mother was a very active woman with a wide social network and she had lots of friends who wanted to attend her son’s wedding accordingly . The guests from the bride’s side were a lot too . The bride’s parents were running businesses in Cheonan City; a real estate office and a hair salon . They certainly seemed to have a large social network as well .
“Wow . So many people came . Look at the congratulatory flower wreaths that were lined up here . They even reached the entrance of the wedding hall . ”
Most of the flower wreaths were from GH Mobile’s vendors and client companies such as some chemical companies or Tech companies selling raw materials and etc .
“The groom is a plant manager of a large company . ”
“He is still young and he is already a plant manager? He must be very smart . ”
Every single one of the executive officers from GH Mobile and Dyeon Korea came . President Jeong-Sook Shin, Jae-Sik Moon, and Director Kang were there too . Even Tae-Young Im came to congratulate Jong-Suk on his wedding .
The staff at the wedding was surprised by the number of guests who came to attend the wedding . He said,
“I’ve never seen this many people here at once since the Cheonan Convention Center opened its door . ”
The bride was not wearing her usual glasses at her wedding . Without glasses and in her wedding dress, she looked so different and so pretty . The president of the company where the bride was working for came and he met with Gun-Ho .
“You must be running a company in the Cheonan industrial complex . My company is in Jiksan Town . It’s nice to meet you . I’m very close to the groom . He is like my little brother . ”
“It’s a pleasure meeting you as well . Everyone in the research center of my company loves the bride . GH Mobile’s man is now taking her . Hahaha . ”
After the wedding, Jong-Suk planned to go on a honeymoon trip to Bali in Indonesia . A Bentley was waiting for Jong-Suk and his bride in front of the wedding hall . Chan-Ho Eom was in the driver’s seat . The Bentley was decorated with colorful ribbons . Gun-Ho provided his Bentley with his chauffeur to give a ride to the groom and the bride to the airport for their honeymoon trip .
“Hey, Mr . Groom . Close your mouth . I know you are the happiest man in the world today . But keep your mouth closed, man . You are drooling . ”
People teased Jong-Suk .
Gun-Ho couldn’t go back to Seoul that day because he gave his car to Jong-Suk for the day . Director Kim gave Gun-Ho a ride to Onyang Hot Spring Hotel . Gun-Ho was going to spend the night there .
Gun-Ho was having a bottle of beer in his hotel room while watching the news on TV . Gun-Ho wanted to see Seol-Bing so much, maybe because he felt so envious of the new groom and the bride earlier that day .
“I miss Seol-Bing so much . ”
Gun-Ho decided to send a text message to Seol-Bing .
[Hi, Ms . Seol-Bing!]
→ [Hi!]
→ [I went to a wedding at Cheonan Convention Center today . It was a wedding of one of my employees . I sent my car to them so my driver can give them a ride to the airport for their honeymoon . So I couldn’t go back to Seoul today . I’m staying in Onyang Hot Spring Hotel . ]
→ [hhh . You are a good employer . ]
→ [I want to see you . I can’t help thinking of you . ]
→ [Go sleep . I have a photoshoot tonight . ]
Gun-Ho concluded his chat with Seol-Bing by sending her an emoticon with a sleeping face .
When Jong-Suk came back from the honeymoon, he seemed to become a different person . He went straight home after work and he didn’t drink much . He worked harder too .
“That’s good for him . ”
Gun-Ho perceived this change as one of the courses that Jong-Suk was going through in his life as he became mature .
One day, Gun-Ho asked Jong-Suk Park to stay in his office after finishing the regular meeting with GH Mobile’s executive officers .
“Hey, Jong-Suk . You act differently these days . What’s up?”
“I don’t think so . I feel the same . ”
“You look better . Your complexion is even brighter . ”
“Hahaha . Maybe . ”
“You like your bride that much, huh?”
“Bro, let’s talk about it after you get married too . I can’t explain with words . ”
Jong-Suk purchased a Purgio condo nearby the Dujeong subway station to start his family . His parents helped him financially but Gun-Ho was proud of Jong-Suk that he purchased the condo without a loan from a bank but used his money from his savings account .
Gun-Ho bought a new car for Jong-Suk with GH Mobile’s name . It was Gun-Ho’s wedding gift to Jong-Suk . Jong-Suk was making more than 100 million won yearly since his position was a director level . Gun-Ho’s high school friends—Won-Chul Jo who was a manager in a large company and Byeong-Chul Hwang who worked as a researcher in a research center in Pangyo— weren’t making more than Jong-Suk .
Moreover, Jong-Suk’s parents and his parents-in-law had their own condo . They were not rich but they had enough money to have a comfortable life . Additionally, Jong-Suk and his bride were both the only child to their own parents, so they would inherit whatever their parents owned, all to themselves . Once they had a baby, the two parents would probably fight over who would spend more time with their grandchild .
‘Jong-Suk, I want you to have lots of children, maybe three of them . That’s the best way you make your parents happy . I feel so lucky that I have you on my side at my company . ’
