On the way out after dinner with him.
The butler quietly called me.
He pulled out a contract he had prepared in advance.
It is a contract that leases land free of charge.
It is an area of 20,000 sq.
It was larger than the land rented to run the ranch.
The butler said as soon as the contract was signed.
“I wish you all the best.”
He said with a faint smile.
There was also a look of disbelief on his face.

On the way home, I called Han Ki-tak.
He appeared in comfortable clothes.
“What’s up? at late night.”
“I want to tell you something important.”
“If it’s such important news, you should go to a good place to hear it.”
Han Gi-tak entered the regular food stall.
He ordered eel in soju and told me.
“You can tell me now. That important thing.”
“I saved the land.”
I looked around and said in a low voice.
Han Ki-tak asked in a quiet voice.
“You saved the land? What land?”
“It’s the land where we will build our cultivation facilities.”
“what? Is that real?”
Han Ki-tak’s voice rose without realizing it.
While I was covering my mouth with my hand, the food I ordered came out.
The owner aunt saw Han Gi-tak’s blushing cheeks and said pleasantly.
“Steamed egg service”
“Thank you, Aunt.”
Han Ki-tak waited for the owner’s aunt to disappear before asking in a whisper.
“Did you find land for our facility?”
“yes. I saved the land.”
I pulled out the contract. Han Ki-tak opened his eyes and looked at the contract.
The thought of drinking seemed to have disappeared.
“Did you really save the land? How the hell did this happen?”
He pointed his finger at the name on the contract.
The index finger was pressing on the name of Byung-soo Leah.
This is not a place to talk for a long time.
I told the story as briefly as possible.
Han Gi-tak pricked up his ears and listened to the story.
“That inspiration, did you eat something wrong?”
Han Ki-tak asked with a look of disbelief.
“There are conditions for successful funding.”
At that moment, Han Gi-tak picked up the soju glass.
“Have a drink first.”
Today, I also thought about drinking.
I drank a cold drink.
The cold soju ran down my throat, and it tasted like the glacial soju I used to eat in Antarctica.
Han Gi-tak put down his glass and said.
His expression was serious.
“Can people change?”
“It can change.”
“Anyway, that’s a good thing. To be honest, I was also worried about the land.”
“The seniors were also concerned.”
“Of course. If the manager of the management support team doesn’t care, who will use it?”
He said stealing a soju glass.
“Now, just focus on funding. Don’t worry about the land.”
“Okay, sir.”

It has been a month since we started funding.
Contrary to the initial success, it is in a state of lack of strength.
We raised 1 billion won in a week, but now it’s been a month and we’ve raised about 2 billion won.
The period of stagnation has come.
At first, a large number of people who were interested in local acquaintances and farmers in Jirisan participated in the event.
After that, a small reaction continued.
Han Ki-tak said with a worried expression.
“The amount never goes up.”
“There is a way to get over it. I have to go to the second event~!”
“Is there a way?”
I handed him the warm papers I had just received.
Han Gi-tak looked at the documents and cried.
“Finally patented!”
side of anchor
The rainy season started when funding stagnated.
Just because a patent is issued doesn’t mean the problem will be solved immediately.
We had to find a way to use the patent.
I headed to Seoul with Han Gi-tak.
Daeshik Kong, the CEO, hit us. You could see the impatience on his face.
He was also conscious of the stagnant funding.
he said with a sly smile.
“If it were any other funding round, I would have said it was already successful. Because we have raised 2 billion won.”
“We still have a long way to go to reach our target.”
“Because 10 billion won is not a small amount of money.”
“If the funds are raised like now, it will not be easy to reach the target amount.”
Daeshik Engineering raised the glasses frame. a tense face
I looked into his eyes and said.
“There is a cool way to break through the stagnation.”
“How?”
At that time, Han Gi-tak presented him with a patent.
Daesik Engineering took off his glasses and looked closely at the patent certificate.
“You already got a patent!”
“Because we hired a competent patent attorney.”
I brought out the word competent on purpose.
Venture Crowd also meant to work competently.
Daesik Gong seemed to understand that too.
“I need to show off my skills.”
Both eyes in the glasses shone.
From the moment I received the patent, I was thinking of entrusting the work to the venture crowd.
This is because the venture crowd was also doing marketing.
The idea was to distribute press releases through them.
“I will be distributing a press release soon.”
As expected, the press release story came out.
“But it is a waste to distribute it only to domestic reporters.”
“What does that mean?”
“How about making and distributing press releases to foreign journalists?”
I exchanged glances with Han Gi-tak. He seemed worried too.
This is because it has yet to receive an international patent.
Daeshik Engineering seemed to know what I was worried about.
“As CEO Kim said, if you are a competent patent attorney, it would be a matter of time to get an international patent, right?”
At that, Han Gi-tak looked at me and nodded.
I figured that wouldn’t be a problem either.
“As President Gong said, we distribute press releases to foreign media as well.”
“There will definitely be good results. You can look forward to it.”
* * *
Daeshik Kong handled the work quickly.
The press release went out the day after the meeting. Not only the domestic media but also foreign media covered the patents of farmers in Jirisan.
At the same time as the report, funding also began to gain momentum.
It is the same flow as having accumulated 1 billion in one week.
It wasn’t just the amount raised.
Even the publicity news came in.
When Ki-tak Han saw the mail addressed to the farmers in Mt. Jiri, he shouted out loud.
“It looks like we’ll be appearing on our CEO’s news!”
With those words, Baek Min-seok scanned the contents of the e-mail.
“This is not a short story. You sit next to the anchor and do the interview.”
Baek Min-seok looked at me with a surprised face.
Then I got a phone call from the CEO of Daeshik Engineering.
“CEO Kim, did you receive an email?”
“yes. I received an email requesting an interview.”
“It went really well.”
“Is this also the work of CEO Gong?”
“We do not have the strength to move to the press office. However, I was only giving opinions through people I knew.”
“You didn’t just distribute press releases.”
“If you take advantage of this opportunity, I think it will have a positive impact on funding.”
As soon as I hung up the phone, Han Gi-tak came up to me.
“Represent the ball?”
“yes.”
“Is this interview also what CEO Gong did?”
“I think I let my legs go.”
“It’s a good opportunity. Let’s seize this opportunity.”
“I think so too.”

Two days later, we arrived in Yeouido.
When I arrived at the lobby of the broadcasting station, I saw a familiar face.
Go Ae-joo is a writer.
“Mr. Deokmyeong, I was waiting for you.”
“How do you know I will come?”
“This floor is so narrow.”
she smiled and said
“by the way… … . Why did you wait for me?”
“I want to give Deokmyeong a little tip.”
“A tip?”
“Are you interviewing anchor Shin Nam-soo at the studio today?”
I nodded quietly.
“It may not be a big deal, but it will help. Be sure to say this at the end of the interview.”
She looked around and whispered in my ear.
A tip is to ask for a chance to speak at the end of the interview.
The interview time was short as the news was broadcast live.
It was scheduled for a three-minute interview.
The maximum time an anchor can give is about 1 minute.
She gave anchor Shin Nam-soo’s favorite word.
He said that if he used that word to say what he wanted to say, he wouldn’t stop in the middle.
“how about it? Would it be worth a try?”
“I feel like I have received an unexpected gift.”
Writer Ko Ae-ju smiled, revealing her white teeth.
I sat in the studio and waited for my turn.
The atmosphere in the press was solemn.
The atmosphere was completely different from the broadcast I was running.
There is also the singularity of news, but the tension from the live broadcast was the greatest.
Anchor Shin Nam-soo skillfully conducted the news.
He is one of the most influential journalists in Korea.
A person with a white face and an intelligent image.
Finally it was my turn.
The press’s PD sent the signal.
“Today we have a special guest in our studio. You are the CEO of an agricultural company called ‘Jirisan Farmers’. Let’s talk with Kim Deok-myeong.”
I sat next to anchor Shin Nam-soo.
The time allotted to me is only 3 minutes.
“I heard that you started with dried persimmons.”
“Hadong is famous for its Daebonggam. This is the background to starting farming with dried persimmons.”
“I heard that after the dried persimmon farming, various items were commercialized and sold. Then I started to do hydroponics, so I wonder what led to the start of hydroponics?”
“It was because I thought that farming in the same way as before was not competitive. It is my dream to nurture rich farmers through cutting-edge agriculture.”
“okay. This time, I heard the news that a patent has been obtained for hydroponics. You say that it is a patent that is also attracting attention abroad?”
“It is a patent related to vertical cultivation.”
“okay. Vertical cultivation… … . This is a rather unfamiliar expression, but please briefly explain to the viewers what vertical cultivation is.”
I have explained the details of vertical cultivation as simply and as simply as possible.
Anchor Shin Nam-soo nodded and said.
“To sum up, there will be no problem in growing crops during the rainy season like now. Production will also be stable.”
“Yes, it is. It is not affected by the environment, such as the rainy season and climate change.”
“Due to time constraints, I will listen until here.”
Anchor Shin Nam-soo said with an expressionless face.
It’s time to use the tips of writer Go Ae-ju.
“Can I say one last word?”
“Please be as short as possible.”
Anchor Shin Nam-soo said while checking his watch.
“I want to create a world where children dream of being farmers.”
Anchor Shin Nam-soo’s favorite word is ‘children’.
He didn’t stop talking to me.
Writer Ko Ae-joo advised in her last remarks to tell a story that had not been done before.
