As he spoke, Park Jin Hyuk closed the document and looked at Secretary Kim through the rearview mirror in the front row.
Jin Junyu hesitated for a moment and said embarrassedly:
"It's almost the end of the year. Don't you have any other plans?"
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
Jin Junyu wanted to fully understand his boss's situation and needs in order to provide comprehensive service.
However, Park Jin Hyuk didn't seem to understand what he meant.
He had no choice but to speak frankly.
"I mean, do you have any female friends? If so, please tell me so that I can deal with them if something happens."
"Female friends? What female friends?"
"You need to tell me about any female friends you're dating, even if it's not just for a romantic relationship, but just for overnight stays. Don't be shy, I can handle anything.
If you need me to deal with it, just let me know."
"Deal with it? Are you planning to secretly take the person away and bury him alive?"
"Ah, not to that extent?!"
Jin Junyu turned his head in surprise.
Park Jin Hyuk smiled and said:
"You've been with me for several months, don't you know? Where do I get any woman? First, I don't have the mind, and second, I don't have the time. Didn't you see me still looking at documents in the car? Where would I have the time?"
"Because... I heard some rumors before I came here, so that's why I asked."
"Ah~ You said I have a lot of women? That's all you need to think. I've changed my ways... okay? Don't let that foolish thought happen again."
"You mean, you really don't have a girlfriend?"
"No! What? You want to introduce me to someone? If there's anyone good, then introduce them to me. I'll never refuse anyone."
"I see. Sorry, I was just imagining things. We're already here. I'll park out front."
Jin Junyu quickly apologized and parked the car on the side of the road.
Because Park Jin Hyuk had not yet received an official appointment, he only planned to take a look around the periphery of the factory.
They planned to park their car a little further away from the factory and then walk over.
Park Jin Hyuk got out of the car first and walked towards the factory.
In the factory area ahead, tower-shaped facilities are lined up one after another. Among the factories I have visited, DS Logics' second factory is the largest.
Compared with DS Logics' position in the pharmaceutical sector, the scale and area of this factory are obviously too large.
After parking the car, Secretary Jin went over and told the bodyguards at the back to keep a certain distance, then ran over.
"How much did it cost to build this factory?"
"From purchasing the land to completing the factory, a total of 700 billion yuan was spent."
"700 billion yuan?"
Park Jin Hyuk put his hands behind his back, pretended to look around, and then stared at the numbers floating above the factory.
[5,000,000,000,000]
It shows 5 megabytes!

Park Jin Hyuk blurted out:
"Looks like this is it."
"Yes, this is the factory that President Xuan mentioned."
He once again looked at the astronomical figure above the factory.
This figure does not mean that the factory is now worth 5 trillion, and it has such great potential. In order to tap this potential, there are still many problems that need to be solved.
'700 billion won was invested in building the factory?'
Park Jin Hyuk said:
"I can't quite understand why the investment is so huge? Where did it all go?"
The data at hand shows that the land cost here is no more expensive than that of other factories.
"The data shows that the construction cost of the factory is much higher than expected."
"Was this factory built by DS Construction?"
"Yes, in order to solve their own problems, DS Construction's quote was a bit higher, and Pharmaceuticals acquiesced."
"That's why it creates chain reactions. How can we compete in the market? Have you ever thought about these issues?"
This project shows that it is not enough for a subsidiary to only engage in internal business, but it must go out and participate in market competition.
"Are there any other reasons?"
"In the pharmaceutical industry, the Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) is implemented, which is very complex. Especially for CMOs (who accept commissions to develop and produce new drugs), they need to strictly follow the client's requirements and implement the highest standards."
"Are the standards the highest?"
"Yes, the mops used in the factory cost 700,000 yuan each, and they are all imported."
"So expensive? What the hell!"
Park Jin Hyuk said this and turned his gaze towards the factory.
"We've invested so much money, but I heard the factory's operating rate is having problems?"
"Yes, it has been built for three months, and the factory's operating rate is only 20%. The sales revenue cannot even cover the factory's operating expenses."
"Aren't orders usually forecasted before a factory is built? Then, when it's almost finished, we should be receiving orders. Why is this happening?"
"Inaccurate order forecasts are one reason, but the more important reason is that many of the contracted drugs failed to pass clinical trials and therefore could not enter the production stage."
"So that's how it is."
Park Jin Hyuk nodded.
"This is a place that can bring me a huge return on my money, but things don't seem that simple?"
