Mr. Brandon Burke continued to talk, "You know that you don't have to limit your target clientele to Korean vehicle manufacturing companies only, right? Why don't you expand your market to U.S. automobile manufacturers such as Ford and General Motors for example."
"Actually, we are thinking of going to the motor show that will be held in Chicago this fall. We are planning to make an English version of our product catalog by then, so we can distribute our product catalog along with business cards there."
"Distributing your catalog is certainly one of the ways of marketing, but you can do more than that. You can participate in it by reserving a booth there. You can take some sample products there and introduce them to potential customers there. That should be more effective."
"That sounds like a very good idea. We will definitely take it into consideration, Mr. Burke."
President Song took GH Mobile's executive officers and Mr. Burke's party to a Korean restaurant for lunch that was located inside an orchard. It was a restaurant that specialized in Korean table d'hote.
Ms. Angelina Rein seemed to love the place. She screamed in joy when she saw some fruits hanging on some trees.
They ordered all sorts of Korean traditional dishes including marinated raw crabs, marinated and grilled beef dishes, and Korean-style vegetable pizza. They also ordered Korean rice wine.
They all enjoyed the food and time together.
Mr. Brandon Burke's party would return to the U.S. the following day.
Gun-Ho wanted to treat them extremely well during their stay in Korea. Gun-Ho believed that it would bring a bigger return someday. He didn't think of the price when he chose a restaurant or hotel to treat them. Well, the expenses were coming from the joint venture, not from Gun-Ho personally anyway.
Gun-Ho said to the joint venture's vice president—Mr. Adam Castler, "Mr. Brandon Burke is your boss, isn't he? I made a room reservation with a luxurious hotel close to Itaewon Town. It's a Hyatt Hotel."
"Thank you, sir."
"And tonight, we are going to the bar in Hannam Town. We will enjoy our dinner there while listening to Korean traditional musical instruments. I will tell Mr. Burke that you made all these arrangements for the day for him."
"Oh, thank you, boss!"
After lunch, Mr. Brandon Burke's party went straight to Seoul from Jiksan Town. There was some time left before dinner, and Mr. Burke's party decided to go around the city a little bit before dinner time.
Gun-Ho made a call to Ms. Jang.
"Ms. Jang, I want to make a dinner reservation for tonight. I will be with three Americans and myself. I won't bring my interpreter there, so please have your ladies ready who can speak English. Oh, and please note that one of the three Americans is female."
"Haha. Understood, sir. You will love my arrangement tonight."
Gun-Ho stopped by Insa Town for gift shopping before heading to Hannam Town. He prepared two gifts. One was a Korean traditional doll and the other was a Korean traditional ceramic pottery. The pottery had a subtle blue color with a painting of grapes.
In his car heading to the bar in Hannam Town, Gun-Ho thought, 'We currently have eight machines. If those machines start fully working for 24 hours, we will generate about 300 to 400 billion won of sales revenue according to Director Kim. I can get additional machines by lease, so I don't have to spend a significant amount of money at once for it. If I bring another eight machines and make them fully work, the sales revenue of 700 to 800 billion won would be generated. If that happens, the company would be categorized as a large company.'
'As Mr. Burke suggested earlier, I can have a global investment banking company like Goldman Sachs or Morgan Stanley issue convertible bonds for us and get foreign investment funds. With those funds, I would be able to build several factories overseas. By that time, my company's sales revenue will exceed a trillion won. I will become the owner of a large company then.'
While Gun-Ho was lost in thought of his plan to expand his business, his Bentley was getting closer to the bar in Hannam Town.
