Chapter 136 – 136
YSP Building Representative Office.
Jinseong was watching YouTube on his computer. It was a CF advertisement for Halmaetteok. She chose Jeong Ha-neul as the main model.
“Wow, Haneul’s beauty is crazy. The ad went really well.”
It was no exaggeration to say that Jeong Ha-neul, in full makeup, was a goddess. She was so beautiful that she could slap a top actress.
It was an advertisement with the concept of Jeong Ha-neul, dressed in a chef’s uniform, making delicious snacks and serving them to customers.
Overall, the advertisement had a neat and luxurious atmosphere, and gave people a strange sense of trust.
– We are looking for a store owner to join Halmaetteok.
I checked the comment.
[The woman’s beauty is crazy? This is my first time seeing you. Who is this? What is your name?]
[And!! The model is gorgeous!! She seems to have the same beauty as Son Ye-jin during her Leeds days.]
[My favorite tteokbokki, Grandmaetteok♡ Nice to see it in an advertisement♡]
[Isn’t this him? Idol trainee Jeong Ha-neul. Aren’t you the person who became a hot topic for having legendary visuals?]
Nine out of ten people were praising Jeong Ha-neul’s beauty. They are expressing more interest in Jeong Ha-neul than in Grandmother Rice Cake.
[Cook Hyunwoo]
Then, I accessed Cook Hyunwoo’s channel. ‘Cook Hyunwoo’s CF advertisement’ was uploaded about 2 hours ago.
It was a CF commercial in which Lee Hyun-woo and Jeong Ha-neul appeared simultaneously. It was produced with the concept of chef Lee Hyun-woo and customer Jeong Ha-neul.
Lee Hyun-woo was certainly handsome, but when he appeared with Jeong Ha-neul, he half turned into a squid.
[Fixed Comment]
[The beautiful woman in the advertisement is Jeong Ha-neul. He is an aspiring actor from YSP Entertainment. Grateful viewers, please love and use our YSP’s Grandmother Duck a lot. I am always grateful and always grateful. ^___^]
Cook Hyeon-woo’s channel, which has become famous for its vlogs, was soon approaching 500,000 subscribers.
Cook Hyeonwoo captured the hearts of women, especially housewives, with his warm appearance and deep voice.
The number of views for CF advertisements was rapidly increasing.
[Congratulations on Cook Hyunwoo’s advertisement!]
[When I went to Seoul, I happened to eat Halmaetteok and it was so delicious. I hope it will appear in my neighborhood soon.]
[Jung Ha-neul’s beauty is as good as that of a top star. A gentle and clean impression is typical of a leading actor.]
Honestly, I thought about it a lot.
Should we adopt Kim Jeong-tae as the male model for Halmaetteok? I really thought a lot about whether I should adopt Lee Hyun-woo.
After much deliberation, we finally chose Hyunwoo Lee as the male model. It was because of his good image and fame.
YouTube promotion is just the beginning. It was advertised on TV, newspapers, portals, galleries, SNS, etc.
We plan to run advertisements worth 6 billion won over 3 months. Furthermore, it was like spending 2 billion won per month.
‘Franchise is…’
Jinseong had no intention of handing the franchise over to just anyone.
He would only give it to those who passed the minimum cutoff line.
The cutoff line was simple.
1. Must not be a villain.
Giving a franchise to an evil person will increase the probability of problems occurring. There was no reason to be with the wicked.
‘I want to create a franchise that can coexist with store owners.’
‘We aim for coexistence where everyone can become rich and live well.’
‘I need to create a retirement lottery for store owners.’
∴∴∴
Kim Hyun-soo was advised to resign.
‘Damn… !’
I found a new job, but it wasn’t easy to get re-employed.
Because of my age and lack of competitiveness, I was cut from the document screening process, let alone the interview.
‘Is self-employment the only alternative? ?’
I am in my 50s.
He was still young himself. I was able to work comfortably for at least 15 years.
On the other hand, his wealth was mediocre. Even with the wealth I had, retirement was bleak.
However, he was at an age where his body could not withstand difficult work.
‘Okay, let’s be self-employed.’
What kind of self-employment do you do?
‘The franchise looks good.’
It was a franchise that was easy.
Although it was difficult to make a lot of money, the probability of going bankrupt was relatively small. The barrier to entry is low because you can do it as long as you have the money.
‘What kind of franchise should I do?’
Chicken? Pizza? Pork feet? Soup and rice?
‘Should we open a chicken restaurant?’
I have inquired about several franchises.
It was the car I was thinking about.
“Dad, how about a grandmother rice cake franchise?”
“Grandma rice cake? What is that?”
“Tteokbokki restaurant. It’s super delicious. “There’s a lot of franchise advertising going on these days?”
“Tteokbokki? “Can you make money selling tteokbokki that kids eat?”
Hyunsoo Kim was negative.
To him, tteokbokki was nothing more or less than cup tteokbokki that he could enjoy cheaply during his school days.
I thought it would be efficient to earn 15,000 won each by frying chicken while the kids were making money with tteokbokki.
“Cup Tteokbokki? 50 won? What kind of double-eight year plan are you talking about?”
“… ?”
“That won’t work. Song. Go see it with your own eyes and judge for yourself.”
I unexpectedly visited Halmaetteok.
‘Huh?!’
Kim Hyun-soo was very surprised.
[Grandma Rice Cake]
[Grandma’s Spicy Tteokbokki – Main Branch]
[Chain store inquiry 1599-○○○○]
The wait was very long.
People of various ages, from teens to 40s, are standing in line.
It seemed like I had to wait in line for at least 30 minutes to get in.
After waiting for 40 minutes, I entered.
“Welcome! It’s grandmother rice cake!”
The staff welcomed me kindly.
Tiririring-!
“Yes, hello? “Is it grandmother’s rice cake?”
National Order of Baedal!
The store was very busy.
“It’s 20,500 won.”
I ordered a lot of things, and it ridiculously exceeded the price of one chicken. It doesn’t seem like how much I ordered, but it was 20,000 won.
‘It’s expensive.’
It was a little shocking.
The Cup Tteokbokki in my memories was extremely cheap, but the Halmae Tteok seemed cheap, but it wasn’t cheap.
I sat down and looked around.
Click-!
Click-!
I was busy taking pictures of the delicious looking food.
“Wow, that sounds really delicious.”
“Honey, does it smell so good?”
“It was worth the wait.”
All of their expressions were bright.
Solsol-!
There was a delicious smell.
“Customer number 116. The food you ordered has arrived.”
I received food.
I tasted bright red tteokbokki.
‘Huh?’
Kim Hyun-soo’s pupils shook greatly.
Honestly, it was surprisingly delicious.
It was just as delicious as the cup tteokbokki I ate during my school days, no, honestly, it was even better than the cup tteokbokki in my memories.
Crispy-!
The fries were doubly delicious. The whole fried squid was especially crazy. It was artistic in that it was crunchy and salty.
“How are you, Dad? It’s really delicious, right?”
“It’s delicious.”
“Right? I think this place is really delicious. Honestly, I think it tastes better than yoptteok or pear rice cake.”
Even though the grandmother’s rice cake fit her own mouth.
My daughter liked it more than I imagined.
Kim Hyun-soo became interested in grandmother rice cake.
We conducted detailed research on grandmother rice cakes.
‘It’s a new company, and it’s a good company.’
YSP was a new company established less than half a year ago.
Halmaetteok was born with a good intention to create jobs for poor grandmothers.
Currently, the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd stores are directly managed, and all three directly managed stores are lined with customers.
‘I need to inquire.’
I thought it was better than most chicken franchises.
I called the Halmaetteok headquarters and spoke with the person in charge.
That afternoon.
Hyunsoo Kim visited YSP Cheongju Building.
‘YSP is using the entire building.’
The name of the building is YSP Cheongju Building.
The 1st floor is Halmaetteok, the 2nd floor is YSP Health, the 3rd floor is YSP Office, the 4th and 5th floors are YSP Studio, and the 6th floor is Halmaetteok.
‘Her? ‘Is the company CEO rich?’
The company seems to be quite large.
I found the 3rd floor.
“Hello? My name is Myeong-ho Lee, the team leader in charge of Halmaetteok. “I was waiting.”
I had a meeting with team leader Myungho Lee.
“Are you saying there are no royalties?”
“That’s right. We do not receive separate royalties. However, all products used in the store must be traded only with companies designated by the company.”
The company’s structure was to make a profit by delivering goods to franchise stores.
It was a system in which the franchisee would order the company for as many items as needed, and the company would deliver as many orders as were received.
“There will never be profiteering in the company. We plan to deliver at a reasonable price.”
Myung-ho Lee explained in detail the process by which the company makes profits and its profit margin.
We will enter into direct transaction contracts with farm owners to supply food ingredients at low prices, and actively utilize large warehouses to minimize price fluctuations.
“We plan to make products at the lowest possible price and deliver them with a profit margin of about 15% to 20%.”
“Some of the profits will be reinvested in advertising, promotions, and a retirement lottery.”
“Some franchises charge additional advertising fees, but we have no intention of charging additional advertising fees.”
“We also plan to fully support promotion costs from our headquarters. “I will not share the pain with the store owner as much as possible.”
“Other than that…”
The policy was to lend 10% of the start-up costs from the head office at an annual rate of 2%. All you had to do was repay the principal and interest every month.
The company’s policy was to sign a contract with a tax accountant to help with tax processing at the lowest possible price.
Even education was free.
In addition, the company planned to dispatch experts to provide advice on commercial areas and lower loan amounts by linking with banks.
‘It’s okay.’
Hyunsoo Kim had previously inquired about franchises from several franchises.
The conditions were not as good as that of Sinda Halmaetteok, and they did not try to co-exist with the store owner as much as Sinmaetteok.
‘I have to sign a contract.’
My heart sank.
‘Thousand per month. I hope to earn just 10 million won a month, no more, no less.’
∴∴∴
The power of advertising was great. I received many phone calls with inquiries. The Halmaetteok staff were busy giving consultations.
Jinseong conducted the final interview.
[Yoon Jeong-suk (43)]
[Scammer]

‘It was successful.’
33 franchises have been confirmed.
Future interviews were scheduled to be held on Thursday afternoon in the metropolitan area and on Friday afternoon in regional areas.
“Representative, here is a report.”
Secretary Jiyu Han submitted the report.
“This is a report on trends and forecasts in the IT and platform industries. We also investigated businesses that could be linked to our YSP.”
“Thank you. “You had a hard time.”
[Likeability: 75]
[Inner mind: Ugh… It was so hard… Are you writing a report? I haven’t been able to sleep well lately… I didn’t even have time to play games…]
[Inner heart: Ha… There was so much to study… There was so much information to look for that I read dozens of English papers alone…]
Secretary Han Ji-yu was a monster.
“Let’s talk over a cup of tea.”
“Yes, CEO.”
