"She came with me to interpret for me. We have a board meeting in Dyeon Korea this afternoon."
"Oh, that's right. It's the first board meeting since Dyeon Korean opened the business, is it? You must be very busy, sir. I guess this lady speaks English very well."
The secretary Yeon-Soo Oh looked uncomfortable since President Song kept referring her as a lady. She wanted to be treated as a part of the team since she was one of the employees of Gun-Ho's companies after all, just like any other workers there. President Song sat next to Gun-Ho and said, "I heard that Mandong Company gave up on their plan to expand their market to Chennai, India. If we could get into that market, that will be really nice."
"Chennai in India?"
"Hyundai Motor Company has its factory no. 2 in Chennai. Many of Hyundai Motor's first and second vendor companies have their branches in Chennai too."
"Where exactly is Chennai located?"
"It's in the southern part of India. Hyundai Motor has its first factory in Delhi and the second factory in Chennai."
"Doesn't Mandong Company have their factory in Delhi?"
"Even though they have one in Delhi, Delhi is extremely far from Chennai. You can't just assume that the distance between Delhi and Chennai is about the same distance between Seoul and Busan. It should be about the distance between Dongbei in China and the southern part of China."
"Hmm."
"It's usually not recommended to form a subsidiary company right before applying for a preliminary examination of the KOSDAQ registration, but we need to check out the market in India."
"India…"
"If you have a chance, I do recommend you to visit India. Once you get into the China market, the next one should be India. Hyundai Accent is selling extremely well in India, which were manufactured in their factory in Chennai. They call it Verna in India. I think it is wise that you should focus on the India market rather than the China market."
"So, Accent is called Verna in India and they are the same model."
"That's right. India can be our production base not only for the India market but for other countries like Africa, Central, and South America."
Gun-Ho nodded his head to show that he understood President Song's point.
Director Jong-Suk Park came to Gun-Ho's office. It had been a while since he visited his office. Ms. Yeon-Soo Oh who was in the office with Gun-Ho quickly greeted Jong-Suk when he saw him coming in the office even before Gun-Ho had a chance to do so.
"Hello, Mr. Director Park."
"Oh, oh. You are the Ms. Secretary in Seoul. I guess you came here because of the board meeting."
Gun-Ho said while smiling, "You two know each other very well?"
"Of course. When Vice President Adam Castler came to join Dyeon Korea for the first time, I met her in Dyeon Korea."
"How are you doing these days?"
"I'm doing fine."
"How's your wife doing? Is she happy with her work?"
"She will take a leave from her work soon. She is having a baby."
"What? Is she pregnant? Wow. Congratulations. I hope your baby would look after your wife, not you. It has to be."
Ms. Yeon-Soo Oh laughed.
"I've heard that you are close with Manager Seo. Is it true?"
Manager Seo worked as an assistant manager in the general affairs team and he was then promoted to the sales team's manager. He used to work with Director Kim, but since Director Kim moved to Dyeon Korea, now he was working with President Song.
"Yeah. His position is lower than mine, but since he is the same as age you, bro, I call him big brother just like I do to you. He likes that a lot. When he was promoted to a manager position, he bought me a drink. He thinks that I contributed to his promotion for some reason. I actually haven't said a word to you, that would affect his promotion."
