Chapter 248 - Hiring New Workers for GH Development (1) – PART 1
The Seongil Polymer’s president started agonizing.
“It is certainly nice to be able to sell more products to Egnopak. We are now selling 400 million won worth of products to Egnopak rather than 300 million won. But I will lose another major customer—GH Mobile for this.”
The president of Seongil Polymer went to see the Egnopak’s president.
“I filed a lawsuit against GH Mobile as you asked. You will have to order an additional 100 million won worth of products from us as you promised.”
“Okay, I will do that. But I will do that when you receive the payment order from the court.”
“I will lose one of our major customers—GH Mobile because I am helping you, sir.”
“Don’t worry about it. The amount of the products you are selling to GH Mobile is only 100 million won, right? Our company will cover it for you.”
“The problem is that President Gun-Ho Goo from GH Mobile is spreading a bad rumor about our company as they terminated the business relationship with us.”
“What kind of rumor?”
“They are saying that they terminated the business with us because our products were defective and they are saying that they found foreign substances in our products. Also, they say that our product cost is unreasonably high.”
“He is indeed vicious.”
The president of Egnopak called for the company’s in-house attorney. Because Egnopak was a large company, they had an in-house legal department and an attorney. The in-house attorney was leading the in-house legal department of Egnopak.
“I asked the Seongil Polymer’s president to let us know right away once he receives a court order for the payment from GH Mobile.”
“That’s good.”
“But the thing is… what if that Gun-Ho Goo person pays off the 300 million won debt as soon as they receive the payment order from the court? He seems to have a lot of money in cash, and he recently purchased a high-rise huge building in Gangnam.”
“Well, if President Gun-Ho Goo pays off the debt to Seongil Polymer, then Seongil Polymer’s president should tell that to everybody.”
“I had set up everything to start a joint venture with Lymondell Dyeon, and that son of b*tch appeared from nowhere and intercepted it. I am so still upset about it.”
“Did you ask that Seongil Polymer company to file a lawsuit against them? I told you that when I was in Korea last time. What happened?”
“They did, but it seems like it would take a long time.”
“I think I’d better come to Korea to teach him a lesson.”
“I want to kick him in his belly if I could.”
“Don’t worry about it, dad. Even though I graduated from USC (University of Southern California), I still have a lot of friends in Gangnam, Seoul.”
“We should refrain from using any physical violence. That could backfire.”
“Don’t worry about it, dad.”
“You think about it, son. Don’t you remember the time when I wielded my baseball bat at a bar? I wielded it because you were being insulted there.”
“I was too young at that time, but now I am in control of those people. They will lick my feet if I ask them to do so.”
“Well, just don’t do it. We will have to think about it another way, something smart.”
“I am coming to Korea next week. I will see you then, dad.”
Gun-Ho went to work at the GH Building in Sinsa Town, Seoul two times per week and went to GH Mobile’s factory in Jiksan Town, three days per week.
Gun-Ho was having a cup of coffee at his office in Jiksan Town while reviewing papers that he had to approve when he received a call from Manager Kang of GH Development.
“Sir, umm… We received the applications for the jobs of a secretary and a staff in the accounting team. There are so many of them.”
“How many applications did you receive?”
“I actually posted on WorkNet only, but other job posting websites and job exam websites posted it without asking us. We received 750 applications for the secretary position alone and 320 applications for the accounting staff position even though we stated work experience in a related field as a requirement.”
“Did you post the job opening with GH Development Company’s name only?”
“Well… that was…”
“Did you put GH Mobile or GH Media in the job posting?”
“I’m sorry, sir. I think I misunderstood your intention. I actually listed all three companies’ names.”
The job posting that Manager Kang placed on WorkNet was like this,
