Young ladies brought some tea.
When Brandon Burke found that they could speak English, he seemed to be very satisfied.
Angelina Rein seemed to be drawn to the decorations in the room. She was busy looking at the embroidered folding screen, the stationery chest and the ceramic vase in the room.
"This place is very Korean."
Angelina Rein closely looked at the Korean traditional dress which the lady worker who was sitting next to her was wearing. She touched the dress to see the fabric and asked her some questions.
Several ladies came into the room with Gayageum* and started playing them. The three Americans seemed to be fascinated by the whole setting. They were having a traditional Korean wine while listening to Gayageum. Especially, Angelina Rein, who was the only lady guest in the room, placed her two hands on her chest showing how much she was impressed.
Mr. Brandon Burke came close to Gun-Ho after sipping the Korean traditional wine.
"President Goo, pay close attention to Chennai in India."
That was exactly what GH Mobile's President Jang-Hwan Song told Gun-Ho the other day.
He continued to talk, "The southern part of India is still underdeveloped compared to the Delhi area in the north. The area just started being developed. India is a huge country. You can build four more joint ventures there."
"That sounds like a very expensive plan."
"I know people in Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. As long as Dyeon Korea succeeds, you don't have to worry about funds to expand."
When Brandon Burke talked to Gun-Ho about the business, his voice was low. And the lady's voice who was interpreting for them became low as well. Angelina Rein and Adam Castler seemed to be busy talking with other ladies.
Gun-Ho lifted his glass and clinked it to Brandon Burke's.
"Thank you for the valuable information, Mr. Burke."
"President Goo, I want you to put me in a branch manager position of Dyeon Korea's India location once I retire."
"Hahaha. What are you talking about Mr. Burke? You should take the president position of the global company—Lymondell Dyeon. You will have enormous power once you are in that position, right?"
"Haha. I was just kidding."
Gun-Ho thought about the new market while having his drink.
"Hmm… India…"
Gun-Ho had to say good-bye to Mr. Brandon Burk in Pine since he was leaving the next day.
"I won't be able to go to the airport with you tomorrow because I have an important matter that I have to attend. I guess I will have to say good-bye to you here."
"I do appreciate you for welcoming us, President Goo. I also thank you for handling the business of the joint venture very well. I do thank all of your workers for the hospitality that they have shown to us. I'm sure the company will prosper."
"Thank you, Mr. Brandon Burke. I wish you good health. This is some token of my gratitude for you."
Gun-Ho gave the Korean doll and the pottery that he purchased in Insa Town to Brandon Burke and Angelina Rein.
"Wow."
Angelina Rein absolutely loved it. She jumped up and down with excitement.
After walking out of the bar, Gun-Ho headed to his home in Dogok Town.
Chan-Ho Eom said while driving, "Umm, sir, I talked to Tae-Young bro about it."
"You mean the heavy equipment thing?"
"Tae-You bro already talked with President Moon about it, but they don't have any heavy equipment yet."
"I think so."
"So I guess we will have to wait until heavy equipment is ready."
"We need to find a space to place trucks and heavy equipment first. Let's go to Seonghwan Town tomorrow to see some land. Seonghwan Town is close to GH Mobile anyway."
"Sir, I don't think we need to secure a place to store heavy equipment."
"Why is that so?"
"I've seen a lot of heavy equipment parked on the street where there is no heavy traffic. I saw a lot of trucks there too."
"Well, they must belong to individual businessmen—sole proprietors. Many of them can't afford to have their own space to park them. But, we are a business entity—GH Logistics."
"I see what you mean."
