Chapter 835: Acquisition of Miura Machines (1) – Part 2
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Gun-Ho decided to stay away from the stock market and come back to it to watch Dyeon Korea’s stock movement, maybe 10 days later. He wanted to focus on his business until then.
Gun-Ho called for Chan-Ho Eom. He was feeling somewhat relieved.
“Hey, Chan-Ho, let’s take the expressway.”
“Huh? Are we heading to Jiksan Town, sir?”
“Let’s have lunch.”
“Where to, sir?”
“Let’s go to the restaurant— Suwon Galbi. We will have Galbi (Korean grilled beef ribs) today. That’s your favorite, right?”
“Galbi, sir? Of course I would love to, sir.”
Chan-Ho Eom looked excited. Chan-Ho was not a big fan of food like sushi. His favorite food was Korean grilled beef ribs or pork belly.
Gun-Ho made a significant amount of money that morning by selling his Dyeon Korea stocks that he bought using Seung-Hee sister’s stock account. He was in a good mood. After having the short ribs, Gun-Ho headed back to his office in GH Building. Since it was a bit after 3 in the afternoon, he thought about going straight home for the day, and then he decided to go to his office.
When he arrived at his office on the 18th floor in the GH Building, Director Woon-Hak Sim was waiting for him; he came from China.
“How have you been, sir?”
“Oh, Mr. Director Sim, how are you?”
Secretary Yeon-Soo Oh said to Gun-Ho with a smile, “Mr. Director Woon-Hak Sim has been waiting for you, sir, for about 2 hours.”
“Oh, really? You should have given me a call earlier, so I could expect you. I had lunch today at a restaurant that is a little bit far from here, and that’s why it took some time for me to come back to the office. Well, let’s go into my office.”
When Director Woon-Hak Sim settled on the sofa, Secretary Yeon-Soo Oh brought two cups of coffee to Gun-Ho’s office.
Gun-Ho asked Director Sim, “How’s everything in China? It has been a while since you moved to China. I hope you’ve enjoyed staying there and like the work.”
“We have almost finished editing, and once we produce a release print, we will have to focus on marketing. We are reviewing the possibility to bring Mori Aikko to China again when we preview the movie.”
“Does Mori Aikko have to be there?”
“Her presence at the movie preview would certainly be very helpful for marketing. If we can hold a fan signing event with Mori Aikko, that will be great. We are expecting to have a lot of journalists at the movie preview, and it could lead to effective marketing.”
“Huanle Shiji Production Company will have to contact Mori Aikko for it. She will decide whether she will participate in it or not.”
“As to a movie distributor, I wanted to work with the top movie distributors such as Ying Lian Media or Bona Pictures. But, when I contacted them, they were already full with their work with other movies. Fortunately, we could get a hold of Yang Guang Pictures which is good too.”
“Well done.”
“I was told that most of the movie theaters in the Huadong area, which is a densely populated area, already decided to show our movie— Menghuan Yinghua— in their theaters. The government seems to be interested in our movie as well.”
“Is that right?”
“I heard that Director Seukang Li spoke highly of our movie to the party secretary in Shanghai City and also to the members of the Executive Committee of the Communist Party as well. He told them that a very good movie was produced in Shanghai. I believe several high-ranking officers of the government will attend our movie preview.”
“That sounds great. I hope things go very well with our movie.”
Gun-Ho asked, “Have you had a chance to meet GH Media’s President Jeong-Sook Shin?”
“I haven’t sir. I wanted to see you first before I see anyone else, so I came to your office first straight from the airport.”
“Well, you didn’t have to…”
“I have a question for you, sir, if you don’t mind me asking.”
“What is it?”
“If this movie succeeds, do you intend to make another investment in the movie production again?”
“I haven’t thought about it yet. The investment in the movie production has been done through GH Media, and to be honest with you, GH Media’s President Jeong-Sook Shin feels pressured about it. As you know, her expertise is not with the movie production field.”
“That I know, sir.”
“GH Media is generating good profits with its publishing work and running the art gallery. It doesn’t need additional business to generate more profits. President Shin is not sure if the movie business is worth taking a high risk for GH Media, by investing in the movie production under the circumstance. She is worried about causing a loss, in case the movie business doesn’t go well. Since she is a woman, she worries a lot more than I am.”
“The reason that I asked you about it, sir, is that I have a movie that I really want to make. It’s a historical movie. I haven’t talked with Huanle Shiji Production Company yet, but if I can work with the Chinese movie production company for making this movie, I’m sure that I would produce a fantastic movie.”
“Hmm.”
“Of course, I want Mori Aikko to take the leading female role in the new movie.”
“Is it about betraying her country— Japan— again?”
“No, sir. The female leading role that Mori AIkko would be taking would actually work for her country— Japan— very hard.”
“Well, we will have to come back to this discussion after we see how things go with the movie— Menghuan Yinghua. If we don’t succeed in this movie, I won’t make any more investment in the movie production again.”
“Understood, sir. I will do everything that I can do to make the movie— Menghuan Yinghua— successful, and then I will come back to you to discuss the next movie, sir.”
It was Tuesday.
On the way to work in the morning, Gun-Ho told Chan-Ho Eom to go to an airport.
“You will need to go to Gimpo International Airport today around 10 am.”
“Yes, sir. I will be waiting for you at the front entrance at 10 am.”
“It’s not me who is going to the airport. I want you to take GH Media’s Mr. Yoshitaka Matsui to the airport.”
“Mr. Yoshitaka Matsui, sir?”
“Yes. We are having visitors from Japan today. The president and the plant manager of a company called Miura Machines will be visiting here. I want you to pick them up at the airport and bring them here.”
“Yes, sir.”
When Gun-Ho arrived at his office, he called for Secretary Yeon-Soo Oh.
“You know GH Mobile’s secretary and Dyeon Korea’s secretary, right?”
“Yes, I do, sir.”
“Please let them know that I will be there in the afternoon. I was supposed to go there to work yesterday, but I couldn’t make it because of some other businesses.”
“Yes, sir.”
“And, also let GH Machines know that I will be there too.”
“I don’t know GH Machines’ secretary, sir. Do you have their secretary’s name, sir?”
“They don’t have a secretary yet. You can directly talk to the president— Jong-Suk Park— and tell him that I will be there with the Japanese president in the afternoon.”
“Japanese president, sir?”
“Yes, tell him that I will take Miura Machines’ president there.”
“Understood, sir.”
When it was almost noon, Miura Machines’ President Tsuyoshi-shi Miura and Plant Manager Yanagi Masatoshi arrived at GH Building.
“Mr. President Goo, it’s good to see you again.”
“Welcome to Korea. It’s good to see you too, Mr. President Tsuyoshi-shi Miura and Mr. Plant Manager Yanagi Masatoshi.”
“You look good, Mr. President Goo.”
“Thank you. Please take a seat.”
Once Miura Machines’ president and its plant manager sat on the sofa, Mr. Yoshitaka Matsui told them, “Mr. President Goo’s factories are located in Cheonan City and Asan City. This building is owned by Mr. President Goo as well.”
“This building belongs to Mr. President Goo? Oh, really? Sodesu Ka (is that right)? Wow. It’s incredible. A building at this size in this location in Seoul must be tremendously expensive.”
Miura Machines’ president and plant manager looked truly surprised.
