Chapter 029: Hint

Previous Chapter

"That's natural, once our Unification Department and the North Korean side have set a time, I will notify you as soon as possible."

Zhao Mingjun, the head of the Ministry of Unification, said.

"Thank you, Chief Zhao, for your support."

"Chief Guo, what do you think about the list of members of the art troupe?"

Ren Zhonghui asked.

"Of course, my idea is to select top artists from the National Music Center, the National Theater, and the Traditional Arts School to perform in North Korea, focusing on the traditional culture of our country."

"No," Ren Jong-hui vetoed Guo Dae's idea, saying, "Chief Guo, we and North Korea are originally a family, and we will have traditional culture, and they will too, and if our performance content is the same as theirs, then won't the performance be boring at that time?" So, we have to use our strengths to put on a show."

"What do you mean, Director?"

"That's not what I meant," Ren Jong-hui said, waving his hand, "Isn't our Hallyu culture the most representative, and we often sent some Hallyu singers to perform when we went to North Korea to perform before, so Mr. Kwok, you can do it according to the previous method, mainly K-Kop."

"Yes, I see."

President Moon's intention is to promote K-Kop culture externally and use Moonhwa, which North Korea does not have, to influence them.

"Okay, I've worked hard for you today, so please go back and make your own work arrangements according to the content of today's meeting."

Ren Zhonghui announced the adjournment of the meeting, Guo Dahai looked at the time, it was already more than eleven o'clock.

He drove away from the Blue House to meet Seo Min-jung on the side of the road outside, and then Seo Min-jung got into his car, and the two of them drove together towards the Southern Country Golf Club in Yongin City.

"By the time we got there, it was noon, so my uncle and they had been waiting for a long time."

"Yes, but it's okay, Abba, he can understand, Oba your business is the most important thing."

Xu Minzhen said as she held his hand.

Yongin, Gyeonggi-do

Guo Dahai and Xu Minzhen arrived at the Southern Country Golf Club in Yongin City at 12:00 p.m., by which time Xu Qingpei, Gu Bencheng and Gu Benzhen had finished a round of golf, and they had better changed their clothes and prepared to go to the club's restaurant.

"Uncle, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

As soon as Guo Dahai came over, he showed his respect for Xu Qingpei.

"It's nothing, Dahai, let me introduce you, this is the president of Gumoto Town of LF Foods."

Xu Qingpei deliberately introduced Gu Benzhen to Guo Dahai first, which made Gu Bencheng feel unhappy.

"Hello Chief Guo, I'm Gu Benzhen from LF Food Club."

Gu Benzhen greeted Guo Dahai with a smile.

"Hello President Goo."

Guo Dahai shook hands with him.

"This is the president of our home food company, Komoto Sei."

"Hello Chief Guo, I am the Gu Bencheng of our home food club."

"Hello President Goo."

Guo Dahai naturally reached out and shook hands with Gu Bencheng, and when Xu Minzhen and the Gu brothers finished greeting, Xu Qingpei took everyone to the restaurant to eat.

In the restaurant, Xu Qingpei and the others ate in a private room on the second floor, and they ate Japanese food for lunch.

"Chief Guo, do you want to drink some wine at noon?"

After the dishes were served, Gu Benzhen asked with a smile.

"I want to go to the neighborhood with Min-jung in the afternoon, so I still don't drink at noon."

On the way here, Guo Dahai himself doesn't like to play golf, so Xu Minzhen suggested that they could go to the nearby folk village or Everland in the afternoon to play, after all, the two of them have never officially played outside together since they dated.

"Yes, who drinks at noon, and is not a drunkard."

Gu Bencheng was on the side, yin and yang strange qidao.

"You guys

Are you going to Everland in the afternoon?"

Xu Qingpei asked his daughter.

"Abba, we haven't decided yet."

Thinking of going out alone with Guo Dahai in the afternoon, Xu Minzhen said with a smile.

"Let's eat first, two presidents, please."

Xu Qingpei picked up the fast son, he moved quickly first, Gu Benzhen and Gu Bencheng followed to eat quickly, and Xu Minzhen sandwiched a piece of grilled eel for Guo Dahai.

During the meal, Gu Bencheng looked at Guo Dahai and asked with a smile, "Chief Guo, the procurement documents of food suppliers for the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics next year will not be adjusted again, right?"

"Of course, we have made the documents public, and if we don't receive any complaints within a month, we will enter the bidding stage after the registration is closed."

"The content of the procurement documents is very fair, and I don't think anyone will complain."

Listening to Gu Bencheng's words that were almost sycophants, Gu Benzhen felt completely uncomfortable, which meant that their LF Food Club would lose their qualification to bid.

"Sir Guo, I beg your pardon, I think some of the clauses in the procurement documents seem to be crowding out a medium-sized and large enterprise like our LF Group, right? Not to mention big business."

Gu Bencheng saw the needle and said, "Ben Zhen, how did you speak, how can you question our Chief Guo's decision?"

"Well, President Gomoto Town, our Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism makes decisions based on the latest policies of the Ministry of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises, and I think we should give more opportunities to small and medium-sized enterprises, otherwise, how can small and medium-sized enterprises survive? Besides, your LF Group is not just in the food industry, and you have lost this opportunity to earn higher profits from other industries, on the contrary, a single food company like President Komoto and their company will not be able to survive like your LF Group, right?"

Guo Dahai brought the ball to the Ministry of Small and Medium Enterprises, and his remarks made Goo Benzhen speechless, but Goo Bencheng said even more happily: "What Chief Guo said is right, a chief like Chief Guo who thinks about our small and medium-sized enterprises cannot find a second one in our Republic of Korea."

"But Oba," Xu Minzhen said to Guo Dahai at this time, "If LF Foods is independent from the LF Group, will it be eligible to participate in the bidding?"

"That's right."

"Chief Guo, this time the food supplier is the general contractor, right? You don't have to buy milk and drinks separately, right?"

Gu Bencheng diverted the topic in time.

"That's right."

"Then Binggli and Nanyang Dairy are in a hurry."

"During my tenure, I hope to help small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) grow in a stable manner, especially for companies like President Komoto, who only deal in food."

"Thank you, Chief Guo, for your compliment."

Gu Bencheng can feel his advantages from Guo Dahai's words, among small and medium-sized enterprises, when it comes to a club that only provides food, our home can be regarded as the largest and most powerful.

Gu Benzhen saw that Guo Dahai was very optimistic about Gu Bencheng, and it was inconvenient for him to say anything more.

At the end of lunch, Guo Dahai and Xu Minzhen prepared to go to the folk village first, and Xu Qingpei and others stayed to continue playing golf.

When it was Goomoto's turn to swing, Seo Kyung-bae and Goomoto Jin stood aside, and he said to each other, "I'm sorry President Goo, I can't help you this time."

"Nothing."

"Actually, based on my friendship with President Gu, I prefer that President Gu can win the bid for food suppliers for next year's PyeongChang Winter Olympics."

"Hey," Goo Benzhen sighed, "What's the use of talking about that now, Chief Guo has made it clear that he will not change the terms of the procurement documents."

"President Goo, didn't we say that if LF Foods can become independent from the LF Group, then you will be qualified to participate in the bidding?"

"That being said, it's too late, and I'm going to end my registration in less than a month, so even if I can separate LF Foods from the LF Group, at least

It's going to take more than a month."

"Then I'll buy you time for President Gu?"

"President Xu, are you saying that you can convince Chief Guo to delay the time?"

"President Goo, can I promise you if I'm not sure?"

"Yes," Goo Benzhen said thoughtfully, "Thank you, Chairman Xu, for your help, but I'll have to discuss this matter with my brother when I get back."

"Of course, everything depends on what President Gu thinks."

meanwhile

Guo Dahai and Seo Min-jung took a car to the Korean Folk Village, the ticket price of the Folk Village is only 20,000 won per person, full of the ancient Korean Peninsula atmosphere, where you can visit and experience the ancient Korean life and traditional culture, and there are various traditional folk performances in the Folk Village every day, such as traditional weddings and so on.

The folk village is also an important filming location for major costume TV dramas, such as last year's hit TV series "Step by Step: Li", which was adapted from Huaguo.

In the past, the number of Chinese tourists visited the village was the largest number of Koreans, and some of them changed into traditional hanbok to take pictures, but this year, we can feel that the number of Chinese tourists has decreased dramatically.

"Oh Mo, it's Chief Guo, right?"

There are scenic staff who recognize Guo Dahai.

"Hello."

Guo Dahai greeted them.

"Chief Guo, are you here to inspect us today?"

"No, my girlfriend and I came here to play, not to inspect."

Guo Dahai patiently explained.

"Chief Guo, would you like to try changing into our hanbok?"

"Yes, Sir Guo, if you change into a hanbok and take a photo, it can also be used as a way to promote our folk village."

At the invitation of the other party, Guo Dahai and Xu Minzhen changed into traditional Korean hanbok, and the two took a group photo at three scenic spots in the folk village, including Pingseokqiao, Zhongxian Academy and Bazaar.

"Oba, are you going back to Sejong City tonight?"

"There's an internal meeting tomorrow morning, I have to go back tonight, what about you, do you want to go back with me?"

"No, I'm going to pick up a client from Thailand tomorrow, and she's expected to stay in Korea for two days, and I'll have to stay with her for both days."

"Is it a male client?"

"No, female customer, she is the largest agent of our cosmetics brand in Thailand, and I heard that she has a very close relationship with the royal family over there."

"Then when are you coming to Sejong City to look for me?"

"Wednesday or Thursday."

"Okay."

At around 4 p.m., Guo Dahai and Seo Min-jeong returned to the Southern Country Golf Club, where he said goodbye to Seo Kyung-bae and others before leaving for Sejong Special Self-Governing City.

Kwak Dae first told Choi In-geng to reroute to Seoul, and then he looked out the window at the street scene and thought about what name he should appear in Mapo-gu.

YG Entertainment seems to be located in Mapo-gu.

Kwak Dae suddenly remembered that Yang Hyun-seok, the president of YG Entertainment Club, invited him to visit the club, so he called Sung Min to contact him.

After a while, Sung Min called back and said that Yang Hyun Seok would go to the club to wait for Guo Dahai's arrival, and Sung Min Cai himself would be there to wait for him.

Mapo-gu, Seoul

Due to traffic jams, Kwak Dae arrived at YG Entertainment Club in Hajeong-dong, Mapo District at around 7 p.m., where Yang Hyun-seok, his younger brother Yang Min-seok and Sung Min Chae had been waiting for a long time.

"Your Excellency, Sir."

When Guo Dahai's car stopped, Cheng Min hurriedly ran over to open the car door for the other party.

"Hello, Sir."

The two brothers, Liang Xuanxi and Liang Minxi, came over and bowed to Guo Dahai and greeted him.

"President Liang, long time no see."

Guo Dahai shook hands with Liang Xuanxi, he looked at Liang Minxi and asked, "Who is this?"

"Sir, this is my younger brother and vice president of YG Entertainment Club, and his name is Yang Min-seok."

"Hello Sir, I'm Liang Minxi."

"No wonder, I said how Vice President Liang looks quite similar to President Liang."

After saying hello, under the leadership of the Yang Hyun Seok brothers, Kwak Dae entered YG Entertainment Club to inspect it.

"President Liang, I heard that your YG Entertainment Club is building a new club building, right?"

While wandering around the club, Guo Dahai asked.

"Yes, the new club building is not far in front and is expected to be completed in 2019."

"I've been walking for a long time today, so let's find a place to sit and talk."

Guo Dahai felt a little pain in his legs, and he didn't want to hang out anymore.

"Yes, Sir, please come to my office and rest."

Yang Hyun-seok invited Guo Dahai into his office, and he gave up the president's seat to Guo Dahai to sit down, but the other party went to sit down on the sofa in the reception area.

"Secretary Cheng, have you eaten?"

"Not yet."

"Then let's order takeout, Ren Geng and I haven't eaten either."

When Sung Min took out his mobile phone, Yang Hyun Seok said, "Sir, I'm sorry, I forgot that you haven't eaten yet, please wait a minute, I'll arrange someone to buy you dinner right away."

"President Liang, just keep it simple."

"Yes."

Liang Xuanxi tried his younger brother Liang Minxi's eyes, and the other party immediately went out to arrange for someone to bring dinner over for Guo Dahai and others to enjoy.

"President Liang, I have a question for you."

"Yes, sir, please ask."

"Which club do you think can represent the highest level of K-Kop in Korea?"

Jaung Hyun-seok was stopped by Kwak Dae's words, and he smiled awkwardly and said, "Actually, there are different representatives of Hallyu culture at each stage for the club, and each club also has its own representative artists and groups, so I can't determine who can represent the highest level of K-kop in the Republic of Korea."

"President Yang, as far as I know, SM Entertainment's HOT, TVXQ, superJunior, Girls' Generation, and EXO are all very representative, JYP has had irls before, who else is there in your club besides bigbang?"

"One of the more famous groups in our society recently is BLAK, I don't know if you've heard of it, sir."

"I haven't heard of it."

Guo Dahai's answer made Liang Hyun-seok a little embarrassed, "Yes, maybe it's because our BLAK isn't famous enough."

"President Liang, show me the BLAK information."

"Yes."

Yang Hyun Seok immediately called someone to get BL

AK's graphic and video materials.

"You still have Thais in your BLAK group?"

"Yes."

"Who's the captain?"

"The captain is Kim Ji-so," said Yang Hyun-seok when he found the picture of Kim Ji-so, "it's her."

"Okay, is Rose a half-breed?"

"No, it's Korean, her name is Park Chaeyoung, but her nationality is New Zealand."

Guo Dahai nodded and said, "That's the case, I know."

Liang Xuanxi didn't know what Guo Dahai meant when he asked him, so he had to laugh on the sidelines.

The YG Entertainment Club staff brought the packed meals, and Yang Hyun-seok said as he laid out the side dishes for Kwak Dae-hae, "Sir, I'm sorry, why don't we go out for dinner?"

"No need, dinner isn't important, just eat whatever you want."

After eating, he waited until about 8 o'clock in the evening before Guo Dae left YG Entertainment.

"Sir, go slowly."

After sending Kwak Dae away, Yang Hyun Seok and his younger brother Yang Min Seok stood in the lobby on the first floor of YG Entertainment Club, and he asked, "Min Seok, did you say that Chief Kwak was hinting at us?"

"Brother, are you saying that Sir Guo has a crush on who in BLAK?"

"I should have called Jisoo and the others over just now, and Chief Guo should be able to show who he's interested in in person in."

"yes."
