Chapter 768 - Fulfilling Preliminary Examination Requirement to Go Public (2) – Part 1
After talking with Director Jong-Suk Park at the production site, Gun-Ho came to his office on the second floor. When Gun-Ho was enjoying the tea that his secretary— Ms. Hee-Jeong Park— brought to him earlier, President Song entered the office.
Gun-Ho asked him, “Don’t you have any meetings or anything with a client today?”
“I was actually on my way out. I just wanted to congratulate you on the successful progress with Dyeon Korea’s registration with KOSDAQ. I’ve heard that its preliminary application has been approved.”
“I’m just grateful for all the help that we received from the people around us.”
“I’m hoping the price of its initial public offering is determined high.”
“Institutional investors will fairly determine the price based on the company’s predictable future and potential.”
“I believe that the price will be set high because Dyeon Korea is the partner of the world-renowned company— Lymondell Dyeon— as its name implies.”
“I hope so.”
“Have you seen the news on the internet? Minister Jin-Woo Lee is now in a better position for the upcoming by-election. His opponent candidate’s comment made in the past became a hot issue now.”
“Right, I read the news on the internet too. It was a very unexpected happening that worked favorably for Minister Jin-Woo Lee. Who would know the comment that he made years ago came out into the open in this timing?”
“I guess Minister Jin-Woo Lee is a lucky man.”
“I agree with you. Luck certainly plays a critical role in many situations in our lives. Minister Jin-Woo Lee is lucky enough to work as a minister with the government and also become the son-in-law of a conglomerate family. I believe the luck seems to be on his side this time too.”
“Haha, I think so. Their current voting gap is 45:55. I feel relieved even though things can quickly be changed in politics.”
“His campaign camp will handle it well.”
“Our sales revenue has increased as A Electronics increased their product orders from us substantially. Are you sure we don’t have to help with his election campaign? Maybe we should visit his election district and do something for him.”
“I… don’t think that would be necessary…”
“The monthly rent is 1.6 million won with the security deposit of 5 million won. The property owner also offered us to use the storage building as well for free of charge. It’s a very old and shabby storage. I received the key to the storage, but I’m not sure if we would ever use it.”
“Hmm, I see.”
“The storage building is about 60 pyung large. If we need more space to store something later, we will use it.”
“Sounds good.”
“And, I didn’t have time to search for a factory building for our third and fourth factories in Dangjin City and Changwon City, so I have nothing to report to you on it yet, sir.”
“Oh, that’s okay. As I mentioned before, you can take time for it. It’s not an urgent matter at all. Just keep an eye on it, and I would also watch the auction site as well. You can do it next year if you are too busy.”
“Understood, sir.”
After the general affairs director left the office, Gun-Ho continued to have his tea. At that moment, Secretary Hee-Jeong Park entered the office.
“Sir, someone is here to see you.”
“Me? I’m not expecting anyone today. Who is it?”
“He insists that he needs to meet you in person, sir. He is a famous actor— Mr. K.”
“A famous actor— Mr. K? Isn’t he the one who was on the historical TV drama that was aired recently? Why does he want to see me? Is President Song in the office?”
“Mr. President Song is out to visit one of our client companies, sir.”
While Gun-Ho was talking with Secretary Hee-Jeong Park, someone knocked on Gun-Ho’s office door. And, a good-looking man, who looked like he was in his 50s, came into the office. He had a sturdy build. Gun-Ho could smell the strong perfume from him.
“I hope I’m not interrupting you, sir. I’m an actor— Mr. K.”
Mr. K gave his business card to Gun-Ho. Gun-Ho looked at his business card. It said he was an actor affiliated with the KBS broadcasting station, and there was a large picture of him on the upper left of the business card.
Gun-Ho didn’t give his business card to the man, but he just asked him to sit down.
“Please have a seat. What brought you here?”
“Jiksan Town is my hometown.”
“Oh, is it?”
“You are not from this town, sir?”
“No. I’m from Incheon City.”
“Oh, do you commute from Incheon City then?”
“I’m very busy right now. Can you please get to the point?”
