Episode 146. Seeing you do it.
At my words, the managing director bowed his head.
“thank you. CEO!”
“yes. In the future, TFA’s line will be the first place to apply new semiconductor process technology. In a word, it is a kind of vanguard that represents TM Foundry. This means that Managing Director Lee will take on an important role in providing the best products to customers and, furthermore, by demonstrating his overwhelming ability to competitors, breaking the will to pursue them. Can you do it?”
The manager’s eyes shone strongly.
“I will never let you down.”
“haha. Then I trust only the president of the corporation.”
Main branch of Rude department store, representative office.
CEO Mo Han-goo had a worried face at the declining sales day by day.
“Whoa… sales fell 3% again this month. How am I supposed to report this to the president?”
It has been 25 years since Jo In-hwan, chairman of the 7th-ranked Lude Group in the business world, and Mo Han-goo formed a relationship.
It was he who made Rude department store one of the top three department stores in Korea.
The emergence of Dao Mall, which changed the paradigm of the clothing distribution structure, was helpless.
No matter how good the service was, the number of customers decreased day by day, and sales plummeted along with it.
In the end, three months ago, it was in a state of operating at a loss.
There was no way to restore sales.
The secretary rushed to him, who had been in trouble for a long time.
“CEO. The president has come.”
Mo Han-gu stood up in surprise.
“Chairman Jo In-hwan is here?”
“It’s strange. There were occasions when Chairman Cho stopped by a department store for an inspection, but there was never a case where he visited without contact like this…”
Mo Han-goo, frowned at the ominous feeling, opened the door of the office and bowed deeply to the 70-year-old man who appeared.
“President. Are you here?”
“I know that CEO Mo is very busy these days, so I’m here today.”
“Thank you for your consideration. President.”
“okay. Take a seat.”
Jo In-hwan stared at Mo Han-goo, who was sitting opposite him, with a restless face for a long time before opening his mouth.
“Representative Mo. How long have we been together?”
“The number of years is over 25 years.”
At those words, Jo In-hwan touched his chin and fell into thought.
“It’s been 25 years… Has it already happened?”
“Time goes by so fast…”
“CEO, you know that I love you a lot, right?”
“yes. I know it well. He gave me a lot of attention.”
“That feeling is still the same. But it is.”
The moment Mo Han-goo’s face hardened with tension the moment he finished saying ‘That’s it’.
Jo In-hwan continued.
“To me, this Lude group is more important. It’s the result of what I’ve dedicated my entire life to. Do you understand my heart like this?”
“..of course. President.”
“Lude Department Store, which is responsible for 20% of the Rude Group, looks like this now, how would I feel?”
Jo In-hwan’s speech itself was sparse, though.
Mo Han-goo felt the great anger contained within.
He lowered his gaze and shouted.
“sorry. President. We will definitely restore sales.”
The mouth of Jo In-hwan, who was staring sharply as if it was going to pierce the back of Mo Han-goo’s head, opened.
“I will raise my head.”
As Mo Han-goo carefully raised his head, Jo In-hwan continued.
“If it were anyone else, I would have pulled him out of that position more than a year ago. But he believed in you and waited until now. But that belief has now reached its limit. say it outright If there’s nothing more you can do, just come down here. Retirement pay will be generously provided. Let the rest of your life rest in a quiet place.”
Mo Han-goo called Jo In-hwan in a trembling voice.
“Sea.. Chairman!”
However, there was no emotion in Jo In-hwan’s eyes when he saw him like that.
“Stop it now. It’s been a lot of hard work.”
“only once. Just give me one more chance.”
“chance? Is there still more you can do?”
Mo Han-gu nodded desperately.
“yes. Either way, by any means possible, we will bring department store sales back to normal.”
The corner of Jo In-hwan’s mouth rose slightly.
“Ohh. by any means. Are you serious about that?”
“That’s right!”
Jo In-hwan gave a satisfied expression.
“Now it’s like the former CEO. okay. Your strong point is that initiative that comes from the urgency of never going back. I liked that, so I hired you, who used to work as a bellboy at a hotel, as a full-time distribution worker, and you have made it to this position as I expected. I thought you had lost everything when you got older, but it seems that such desperation remains inside of you.”
“I am always desperate. So give me one more chance. I will show you the image of Mohan-gu in the past.”
Tock, tock.
Jo In-hwan, who was beating the table with a worried face, opened his mouth.
“6 months. Just give me 6 more months. If it doesn’t come out, you won’t have a second chance.”
“thank you. President! I will never let you down.”
Jo In-hwan lightly tapped Mo Han-goo’s shoulder, who was bowing his head, and stood up.
“Has it been a long time since we ate together? Catch me sometime and let’s have dinner. Just like 20 years ago, with just one makgeolli in the middle.”
“All right. If you call me, I will run right away.”
“okay. Then go ahead.”
After Jo In-hwan left, Mo Han-goo nervously untied the tie around his neck.
‘How did I get to this position, you’re going to kick me out? No doubt.’
Mo Han-goo decided to use the method he had put off until the very end.
I immediately picked up the phone.
Damoye Center, my office.
Daewon was checking the sales status of D-Tab3 with his brother.
“It’s been about four months since the release, how are the cumulative sales of D-Tab3 so far?”
“921 million units. Next month, it will break through the 10 million mark.”
“haha. Sales have increased considerably compared to D-Tab2, right? D-Tab2 seems to have sold about 7.5 million units at this point.”
“yes. I think the general public is slowly starting to realize that a tablet PC is a pretty useful product. Originally, the main customers were mostly men in their 20s and 30s, but now the purchasing base has expanded to include women and people in their 40s.”
“okay. What are the sales by country?”
“The United States has the most. About 33% of the total sales came from the US. It was followed by Europe at 30%, South America and North America excluding the US at 15%, China at 5%, Korea at 7%, and, oddly, Japan at 10%, more than the amount sold domestically.”
“okay? Now, it seems that the technical ignorance has collapsed a bit. After all, even Japanese people couldn’t have been able to ignore reality forever.”
“right. We have a lot of sales, but above all, Japan is the only place where our monthly sales continue to increase.”
“okay. He seems to have repented a lot, so seeing what he is doing, next time, Japan should be included in the first release country. haha.”
Daewon laughed along with his brother.
“okay. I see you do what you say. haha.”
“Then hyung, how much profit have you made with D-Tab3 so far?”
Daewon hyung spread out his three fingers.
“What a set of three! That’s close to 800 billion won a month. The revenue generated from the D App Store has also increased significantly, and the monthly revenue from the D-Tab alone is about 900 billion won.”
“Nine hundred billion. Good.”
“Even this is not the end. We are negotiating the issue of installing Wi-Fi zones with wired Internet companies around the world, and once the negotiations are over, the revenue from D-Tab sales will increase even more.”
“Hyung, isn’t that how we achieved 1 trillion won a month before D-Tab4 came out? haha.”
At my words, Daewon hyung shuddered.
“If it’s 1 trillion won a month, 12 trillion won a year? Heh, just thinking about it makes me ecstatic.”
Daewon hyung, who was smiling like that, suddenly made a gloomy face.
“But what if you have a lot of money? I don’t really have anything in my hands.”
“why? Do you regret not receiving dividends?”
“..Then, shall we pay dividends this time?”
Daewon hyung’s face brightened greatly.
“yes. But if you pay dividends, more than 30% of it is ripped off as tax, is that okay? If you give out 100 billion won to hyung, the tax you have to pay alone will be over 30 billion won.”
At that, Daewon hyung was startled.
“30 billion in taxes?”
“yes. If you don’t pay dividends, you can do with that 30 billion won. There must be many…”
As I wiggled the tail, Daewon hyung let out a sigh.
“Ehh… I got it, I got it. It feels like I’m being attacked by a multi-level scammer, but let’s postpone the dividend. Hundreds or thousands of dollars is a lot, but it’s too expensive to pay tens of billions of dollars in taxes.”
“haha. right? Instead, the performance came out well, so I’ll double my brother’s salary.”
“Two times, 2 billion?”
Daewon nodded his head with a satisfied face.
“It’s not bad enough. Are you going to upload it from next month?”
“sure. haha.”
#Damoye Entertainment President Kim Soo-chan visited the shooting studio for the web drama ‘Spicy Life’ to be released on the DAJI portal.
It was filming right now, so Kim Soo-chan watched the scene for a while.
A male protagonist who remembers dozens of reincarnations.
Kim Yeon-hee, who was a lover in her previous life, feels an unknown attraction as she passes by a snack shop opened by Nam-joo, and enters the place with a bewitched face.
Unable to recognize her with a different appearance from her previous life, Namjoo greets her as if she were treating others.
“welcome. What can I give you?”
Namjoo asks her again, who is staring blankly at Namjoo’s face.
“Guest? What would you like to order?”
Kim Yeon-hee opens her mouth with an expression as if she has just woken up from a dream.
“..what is delicious here?”
Namjoon smiles.
“Tteokbokki in our restaurant is delicious. May I give you that?”
Kim Yeon-hee gets a strong feeling that she knows him somehow as she sees Nam-joo’s back.
As Namjoo approaches, he asks without knowing.
“Have we ever met before?”
Immediately after that, Kim Yeon-hee realized that it was a comment that seemed to be putting on work, and when she put on a bewildered expression, the sound of the director’s cut-sign was heard.
“Cut! The next scene goes in 20 minutes later. Until then, get some rest.”
At the director’s OK sign, Kim Yeon-hee breathed a sigh of relief.
The director raised his thumb towards Kim Yeon-hee.
“Mr Yeonhee. It’s Choi. Is this really your first time acting?”
She smiled and bowed her head.
“Thank you for the compliment. Director. I still lack a lot, so please teach me a lot.”
“Ugh. There are many things that are lacking. Let’s just keep going like this until the drama ends. haha.”
“yes. I will do my best.”
While Kim Yeon-hee was resting in a chair on one side, the director, who was checking the footage that was just taken, felt someone grabbing his shoulder and turned around.
“Chief Soo-chan Kim. When did you come?”
“haha. Just now. Is the filming going well?”
