Chapter 831: Stock Split (2) – Part 2
The following day, Gun-Ho went to work in GH Building, Sinsa Town.
He had his morning coffee while reading an economic newspaper as usual. When it was around 10 am, he sat at the desk and turned on his computer. He then opened the stock trading application.
Dyeon Korea’s stock price increased a lot.
“Well, the things that we discussed during the executive eting yesterday seed to be spread out already. There were seven people in the eting, and everyone who is paying attention to our stock seems to know about the stock split already, such as the person, who is in charge of stock matters, the staff in the accounting team, the certified legal consultant’s office, and the stock brokerage company.”
It was actually what Gun-Ho intended when he purposefully talked about the stock split during the executive eting yesterday. Gun-Ho didn’t have to so openly discuss about that matter during the eting, but he could have just proceeded with it privately only with the internal auditor. Since it was a joint venture company, he would have to let Mr. Adam Castler know about it at most. However, Gun-Ho wanted the news to be spread out widely because he had his 200,000 shares using Seung-Hee sister’s stock account. The stock price increased by 7.5% already.
Gun-Ho logged into the stock discussion forum on Naver, and he entered into the Dyeon Korea forum.
“What’s going on with Dyeon Korea? Stock manipulators started playing with it?”
“Oh my, its chart is erected red this morning.”
“Hey, guys. They are talking about their stock split. It’s ti to buy their shares now.”
“The one above, you as*hole, if you are spreading a rumor that is not true, I will kick your as*.”
“I asked their staff earlier who is in charge of stock. She said she doesn’t have any information that is available officially for investors, but she confird that it is true that the company talked about a stock split. So, sothing is going on for sure.”
“You know what? I just received a ssage from my investing club. They said it is very possible that Dyeon Korea would split their stock.”
After reading the stock discussion forum, Gun-Ho smiled, and he logged out of the forum. And, it suddenly ca to his mory what Chairman Lee from Cheongdam Town had told him.
[You should stay away from investing in the stock market. You shouldn’t play a ga where you can’t figure out the other player’s cards.]
“He is absolutely right. The small individual investors recklessly invest in the stock market without knowing the other party’s cards.”
Gun-Ho leaned back on the sofa and had his cup of coffee that was already cooled down. At that mont, he received a call from Director Woon-Hak Sim.
“It’s Director Woon-Hak Sim in China, sir.”
“Oh, Director Sim. You are in the post-production period, aren’t you?”
“That’s correct, sir. We are in the process of editing right now. And, for now, we will be working with the movie distributor—Yang Guang Pictures. It’s not a large top 1 or 2 movie distributor like Ying Lian dia or Bona Pictures, but it is within top 10 in China.”
“Hmm, is that right?”
“In China, the top 15 movie distributors dominate the Chinese film market—90% of them—for the movies that were produced dostically.”
“Really?”
“It was Director Seukang Li who helped us have business with Yang Guang Pictures.”
“Oh, really? I hope it goes well.”
“My expectation is high as well, sir, because China’s cinema market is huge.”
“How large is it?”
“The movie market is huge because the country is huge with high population density. The box office revenue in Korea amounts to around 2 trillion won, and it’s exceeding 10 trillion won in China. The box office revenue from dostically produced films alone in China is more than 5 trillion won.”
“That’s enormous.”
“And, sir, I have to visit Korea next week.”
“Is it for your personal reasons?”
“No, it’s not about my family or anything like that, but it’s about editing. I need to get help from BM Entertainnt.”
“Sure. Please do what you have to do.”
“I will stop by your office, sir, while I’m in Korea. I need to see GH dia’s President Jeong-Sook Shin anyway.”
“Sounds good.”
In the evening, Gun-Ho headed to Seoul National University Bundang Hospital. He wanted to visit Egnopak’s president’s mother’s funeral.
“Chan-Ho, you will have to get off work very late today since I need to go to Seoul National University Bundang Hospital.”
“That’s my job, sir. And, I get paid for those extra hours too.”
“Hmm, is that right?”
“I keep up with my tisheet and submit it to GH Mobile’s general affairs manager on a regular basis.”
“Really?”
“I’m even supposed to bring it to the general affairs manager on ti.”
“Haha, I see.”
When he arrived at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, tons of flower wreaths ca into Gun-Ho’s view. Of course, Egnopak’s president had a wide social network. Most of them were from business owners of large companies, ministers from the governnt, and congressn. Gun-Ho could see the flower wreath that he had sent under Dyeon Korea’s na and also GH Mobile’s President Song’s among them.
Gun-Ho placed a cluster of chrysanthemums on the altar and made a full bow on the floor to the decedent’s family. After finishing the traditional way to show his condolence, Egnopak’s president greeted Gun-Ho delightedly.
“Oh, President Goo, thank you for coming.”
“My condolences to you and your family for your loss, sir.”
“President Song visited here yesterday, and Dyeon Korea’s Director Kim just left as well. He was with an Arican man... Adam sothing. I do appreciate that people from GH companies ca for . Thank you.”
Egnopak’s president then introduced a man who was standing next to him; he looked like he was in his 50s. Gun-Ho could see a resemblance between Egnopak’s president and that man. He looked like a gangster mber just like Egnopak’s president.
“It’s my brother.”
Next to Egnopak’s president’s brother, his problematic son was standing. Gun-Ho greeted him as well.
“It has been a while.”
Egnopak’s president’s problematic son was wearing a black suit with a black tie. He politely greeted Gun-Ho.
After seeing the decedent’s family, Gun-Ho went to the area where all the visitors gathered, by himself. He looked around to see if Dyeon Korea’s Director Kim was still there. At that mont, soone raised his hand and waved at Gun-Ho, and gestured to co and join him. Surprisingly, it was A Group’s CEO Park from its departnt of planning and coordination.
“You ca, sir?”
“Of course. I had to give Egonopak’s president my condolences. Please join and have a seat with .”
Gun-Ho sat at the table facing A Group’s CEO Park.
“I didn’t know you know Egnopak’s president. Are you close to him?”
“No, not really, but we’ve t a few tis before. I actually ca here today on behalf of Minister Jin-Woo Lee, I an Congressman Jin-Woo Lee. Congressman Jin-Woo Lee wanted to co, but he is trying not to draw any attention from the dia for personal matters.”
“I guess Congressman Jin-Woo Lee and Egnopak’s president are close.”
“They are. Egnopak’s president also sent ‘that’ to his political party, and he appreciated him for it.”
‘Hmm, Egnopak’s president seems to have contributed so money to Gongmyeong Party as well.’
Gun-Ho opened a bottle of soju and said, “Please let fill up your glass with soju.”
“Thank you. I will fill up your glass with liquor too.”
A Group’s CEO Park then introduced the man who was sitting next to him.
“Oh, I want you to et this person. He is the secretary-general of Gongmyeong Party.”
“Oh, really? I’m Gun-Ho Goo. Nice to et you.”
When Gun-Ho handed his business card to the secretary-general person, he seed to be surprised.
“Oh, you are GH Group’s President Goo. I’ve heard a lot about you, sir. GH Mobile’s President Jang-Hwan Song is a friend of mine from college.”
“Oh, is that right?”
“The Gongmyeong Party appreciate your contribution to our party, sir”
He was talking about the 100 million won that Gun-Ho had contributed to Gongmyeong Party when Congressman Jin-Woo Lee was running for Congress during the by-election.
