<h4>Chapter 435: Life of Newly-Married Couple (2) – Part 2</h4>


    Director Kim continued to talk, “We should have invited GH Media’s President Shin, GH Development’s Director Kang, and GH Logistics’ President Jae-Sik Moon as well, and make this asion as the entire GHpanies executives’ meeting.”


    Gun-Ho justughed without saying anything in response to Director Kim’s suggestion.


    “Why don’t we also invite President Min-Hyeok Kim from China and the salespany’s Chinese female president— the Ms. Dingding or Dungdung person?


    “I guess Director Kim needs more drinks. Let’s order two more bottles of beer.”


    The general affairs director, who had kept his silence so far, said quietly, “Many of our vendor and customerpanies came to your wedding. We probably want to send them a thank you note or something with your name, sir.”


    “Sounds good. Please do so.”


    Director Kim chipped in again.


    “Egnopak’s president and S Group’s vice president also attended your wedding, sir, along with a congrattory flower wreath. I think it would be nice if you visit them in the near future to thank them. That will help our sales effort.”


    President Song agreed with Director Kim.


    “For Egnopak and S Group, I think it’s worth doing so.”


    Everyone thought that President Song was a cold person, but no one would object to the fact that he was a perfect gentleman with a good manner. S Group’s vice president was a junior to President Song when he had worked for S Group, and when thepany selected the current vice president for the position over President Song, President Song decided to quit thepany. However, he never talked bad about the situation or the vice president.


    During the meeting or gathering with the executive officers, Director Kim or President Song were the people who usually voiced their opinions or suggestions while the internal auditor, the research center’s chief officer, and Director Yoon seemed to be reserved and stayed quiet most of the time. The general affairs director, Director Jong-Suk Park, and Director Min-Hwa Kim had to be very careful in voicing their opinions. They were supposed to restrain themselves from chipping in because they were in a lower position than the other executives considering the years that they had spent with thepany.


    In the afternoon, Gun-Ho visited S Group with Director Kim.


    S Group’s vice president was a young man for a vice president. He was in his early 50s. Gun-Ho gave a bow to the vice president.


    “I wanted to thank you foring to my wedding the other day.”


    “Of course, I had to attend your wedding. By the way, do you know Minister Jin-Woo Lee personally, who presided over your wedding?”


    “Yes, I know him.”


    “He is the son-inw of a conglomerate family. How do you know him?”


    “We are taking the same course at the Advanced Center for Administrative Development at Seoul National University.”


    “Oh, you are taking the course?”


    “Yes, I am.”


    “Oh, I see. When you have a chance, please get me their curriculum brochure.”


    “Sure.”


    Gun-Ho headed to Egnopak with Director Kim. Gun-Ho gave a bow to the Egnopak’s president.


    “I was surprised when I saw you at my wedding, sir.”


    “Of course I had to be there. You are one of our important business partners.”


    “I don’t know what to say, sir. Thank you so much foring.”


    “It is true that our rtionship went through a rough patch, but I already forget all of those. A man shouldn’t cling to the past.”


    “I do admire your generosity, sir.”


    Director Kim who was sitting next to Gun-Ho added, “Everyone in this industry knows of the Egnopak president’s generosity.”


    “Really? It is a well-known fact, huh?”


    “Of course, sir. I know that for a fact because I’ve been in the industry for a long time, and I’ve met almost every single person in the field doing my sales work.”


    “Of course. Director Kim and I have known each other for more than twenty years.”


    “Even though Mr. President, sir, you get mad sometimes, everyone knows that you don’t hold a grudge. Moreover, we all admire your achievement that you grew thepany this big after you inherited the business from your father. I absolutely admire you, sir.”


    Gun-Ho participated in Director’s Kim’s buttering-up.


    “I also heard that you are the 1.5 generation, not the second generation of a wealthy family.”


    “Oh, you heard that too? Hahaha.”


    Director Kim chipped in.


    “I’ve heard of that too.”


    “Director Kim, didn’t you feel disappointed when I made only a small volume of product order?”


    “Oh, well, I understand that you probably have your own reason, sir. I’m sure the volume of product orders will gradually increase.”


    “I will try to order more next month. Hahaha.”


    Egnopak’s president seemed to feel very good.


    Gun-Ho thought that he should prepare something for Minister Jin-Woo Lee as well since he presided over his wedding. If the minister was a regr person, Gun-Ho might have prepared some gift money, but the minister had a wealthy family, and money wouldn’t make much impact on him.


    “What should I get him?”


    Gun-Ho couldn’t think of any good present for the minister other than maybe a painting.


    He had andscape painting that he received from Mr. Ding Feng. Actually, when he went to Gwangju City to see Artist Young-San Hwan the other day, he wanted to buy a piece of his paintings, but it was way too expensive when he asked the Hanbit Gallery’s staff about the price. Gun-Ho was wondering if Artist Ding Feng’s painting would be good enough.


    “If I could get him Artist Young-San Hwang’s painting, that would have been awesome. Mr. Ding Feng’s artworks are not very known among Koreans. I’m not sure if he would like it.”


    When he had a ss at the Advanced Center for Administrative Development, he brought the same rice cakes and healthy beverages that he brought previously. He also didn’t forget to bring Mr. Ding Feng’s painting.


    During the break followed by the first ss, Gun-Ho distributed the rice cakes along with the drinks.


    “This is your thank-you-gift for us for attending your wedding?”


    “Man, this is not enough. We want to have these several times more.”


    The student made jokes while enjoying the rice cakes and healthy drinks.


    “By the way, there were so many people at his wedding. I didn’t know President Goo was that popr.”


    “You didn’t hear what Minister Lee said during the wedding? He is running fivepanies.”


    “How big are they?”


    “One of thepanies is making 80 billion won of annual sales revenue.”


    “Wow. That’s amazing given his young age.”


    As a ss manager, Gun-Ho took good care of the ss. He prepared a drink for a professor in every ss, and he cleaned the ss board after each ss. Gun-Ho became very popr among the students. Many legal professionals and high-ranking government officials asked Gun-Ho for his business card.


    After the ss, Gun-Ho gave the painting to Minister Jin-Woo Park at the parking lot.


    “I appreciate you for presiding over my wedding, sir. When you have time, I’d like to take you to a golf field to have a round of golf with you. Also, I brought this painting for you. It’s painted by a Chinese famous artist.”


    “Oh, thank you. You didn’t have to get me anything.”


    Minister Jin-Woo Lee opened the painting.


    “Hmm, I like it. It’s a northern school literati painting.”


    “Do you know of a northern school literati painting?”


    “Of course. It’smon knowledge. By the way, I’ve noticed that you received so many guests at your wedding. I guess you are a popr person.”


    The minister extended his hand to Gun-Ho for a handshake and said, “I’m so happy that I got the chance to get to know a decent person like you.”
