Chapter 754 - Dyeon India in Chennai, India (1) – Part 1
Manager Hee-Yeol Yoo insisted strongly that it had to be Director Park who would be sent to the new factory in India to install the machines and train the local workers.
“The only people who can handle installing the machines are Director Park and Manager Ahn within GH companies. If Manager Ahn can’t make the trip for family emergency reasons, we have to send Director Park instead.”
“Hmm.”
“We don’t have time, sir. If our Director Kim makes a request to GH Mobile to send Director Park to India for Dyeon Korea’s business, GH Mobile’s President Song would reject the request. You are the only person who can convince President Song to approve it, sir.”
“What about GH Mobile’s maintenance manager?”
“You mean the old manager? He is highly experienced in the maintenance field since he has been in the field for quite a long time; he is very good with handling machines, but for matters related to electricity, Director Park is certainly better than him. Installing Dyeon Korea’s machines is not a simple job. It requires complicated work such as connecting electric control devices to other parts.”
“It seems that we need to cultivate more competent workers in the maintenance team and research center as soon as possible.”
“That’s right, sir. In fact, I allow the two assistant managers, who are being sent to China and India, to be in charge for 80% of the work. I will share my work with those two assistant managers, so they can develop and improve their skills and competency quickly. And, that will let me have more time to focus on other matters here.”
“I see your point. I will discuss with GH Mobile’s President Song about sending Director Park to Dyeon India.”
“Thank you, sir.”
When Gun-Ho entered his office on the second floor, Director Kim followed him carrying a couple of forms to be signed by Gun-Ho.
“These are the relocation approval forms for the two workers to be sent to India.”
Gun-Ho said as he was reviewing the approval forms, “Both of these two workers are in the assistant positions, huh? One is from the research center, and the other is from the maintenance team.”
“That’s correct, sir.”
“You have already talked with these two workers individually about working in our India location, haven’t you?”
“Yes, I have. I made sure that they are willing to be relocated to India. They both like the fact that they will get paid 1.5 times more than their current pay, not to mention that they will have additional scores on their upcoming work evaluation.”
“Oh, hmm, well… We just received the new product order from H Group for their brackets, and we are about to get extremely busy… I understand though that if Manager Ahn can’t do the job, Dyeon Korea has no one to install the machines. Well, what can I do but let them borrow our Director Park? Okay, we will send him to India.”
“GH Mobile has several managers in the production team 1, 2, and 3 and other very competent engineers. They will be fine without Director Park. This is just for one week.”
“That’s true. But, Dyeon Korea tends to heavily rely on GH Mobile. They shouldn’t do that.”
“Let’s help them out this time. We will figure out what to do with Dyeon Korea’s lack of competent engineers.”
“Yes, sir. I will let them borrow our Director Park this time. But we will send a bill to Dyeon Korea for Director Park’s man-days (a person’s working time per day).”
“Haha. Of course, you should do that. I will let Director Kim know that.”
Once Gun-Ho hung up the phone, Director Kim asked, “What did he say?”
“He will send a bill after calculating Director Park’s man-days.”
“He acts like a cold-blooded businessman sometimes. Well, I guess we will have to pay for his work.”
“Yes, I think you should.”
“Yes, sir. By the way, did President Song talk about the company— Deepack?”
“Deepack? It sounds familiar. I think I heard that name very recently.”
“Deepack will possibly become our new client. I was told that H Group’s purchasing team introduced that company to us. So, I contacted Deepack the other day. It’s located in Gumi City. If we start getting product orders from them, it’s going to be huge.”
“Hmm, really?”
“I talked with their director in the purchasing department, but he told me to meet him later; he was about to leave for a trip to Japan. I will contact him again tomorrow.”
“Hmm, I see.”
Once he finished his reporting for the day, Director Kim stood up from his seat to leave Gun-Ho’s office.
“Well, sir, if you don’t have anything else, I will just get back to my office.”
“Would you have a cup of tea with me?”
Director Kim sat on the sofa in front of Gun-Ho.
Gun-Ho asked Secretary Seon-Hye Yi to bring two cups of jujube tea.
