Hanoi Operations Headquarters Headquarters Planning Office.

“The method was a bit extreme… but it was effective.”

Immediately after everyone was released safely, Minju Kim spoke in a relaxed voice.

Meanwhile, Yubin Han had a slightly different reaction.

“Isn’t it a little bit? Looking at the reactions of the surrounding associations, it doesn’t seem like it will subside easily… Ultimately, we have to resolve this.”

“Don’t worry. “Once Viet is dismissed, things will quiet down a bit.”

“Dismissal?”

“Well, since everyone thinks this incident was orchestrated by Viet, the most effective way to prevent it from turning into a diplomatic issue is to cut the person involved.”

“Hmm.”

Han Yubin groaned with her arms crossed.

“If we show that Viet, who is a high-ranking official, is being severely punished with zero tolerance, wouldn’t the surrounding associations be less angry?”

“Definitely… I guess so.”

From the party’s perspective, Viet has become a losing hand that it cannot just hold on to.

Action will be taken, whether it be dismissal or dismissal.

And from then on, it is our job.

I plan to jump in with both feet and reach an agreement again with an apology for this incident.

It may not be easy, but it is not impossible.

Of course, it also depends on what kind of disposition Viet receives in the end.

“Well, we have to hope that the party makes a reasonable decision.”

I sat down and stretched.

“Well, we have a lot of work to do. Please keep up the good work.”

“yes.”

“is it so.”

“All right.”

The three employees’ answers rang out simultaneously.

After that, we stayed in Hanoi for a week and accelerated the process.

As expected, Viet was dishonorably dismissed.

All kinds of corruption charges were filed, but the one that was most shocking was the embezzlement of all support funds through a ghost association for a year.

Thanks to this, Viet was immediately sent to trial following his dismissal.

In the process, he came to Huin, knelt down, and asked for a petition… but it didn’t work.

Anyway, as soon as Viet flew like that, I immediately held a conference and summoned the heads of branches of surrounding associations.

The purpose was to renegotiate the issue of herb distribution.

Well, by this time the overheated atmosphere would have calmed down a bit.

As an apology, if the contract is renewed in a more favorable direction to the surrounding associations, there will be no reason for them to refuse.

There was a time when I thought…

Surprisingly, not a single one agreed to renew the contract.

“For some reason, nothing ever goes as planned.”

The branch leaders opposed the plan without a single thought, as if it had been planned from the beginning, and left, saying they would reach an agreement among themselves and contact them again.

And the conditions for returning immediately are:

“We proposed waiving all distribution fees for one year and freezing distribution fees for the next 10 years.”

“Damn it….”

Immediately after returning to Hanoi after the conference, I shook my head when I heard the news.

Huin put down the official document and continued speaking.

“And… if the negotiations break down, none of the Southeast Asian branches will use the hub.”

“yes? Does that mean you will not supply by-products to the International Association? “I don’t think headquarters will allow that.”

“They say it was a directive issued from headquarters in the first place. If negotiations are not possible, I will give up supply only to the Southeast Asia branch…”

“Huh.”

Are you going all the way to headquarters and taking risks?

It seems like they are determined to eat as much as they can in this gap.

I shifted my gaze into space.

10 years.

Considering the economic growth rate that the hub business will bring, freezing costs for 10 years is a very painful condition.

‘Damn you guys… If you bow down, you will be treated kindly.’

Was it the problem of giving an excuse in the first place?

At that time, Huin was chewing his lips, and then quietly opened his mouth.

“Maybe he’s just bluffing. “We have several branches in Southeast Asia, but the headquarters will not be able to exempt us from delivery forever.”

“That’s true, but… the problem is that considering the costs involved in the herb business, even if there is no distribution for just a few months, the loss on our side is too great.”

Whether we accept the conditions or not, both are poison to us.

Tsk, I never thought it would be this annoying.

I tried to solve it somehow on my own, but…

“It doesn’t seem like it’s a problem we can solve on our own.”

As I shook my head and spoke, Huin gave me a puzzled look.

A face that seems to say, “Then what are you going to do?”

To be honest, I didn’t want to go this far, but there was no other way.

I immediately took out my cell phone.

“Yes, President. “Kim Jun cries.”

“So, is things going well?”

“There’s a problem.”

“You only contact me when there’s a problem? “Can’t you tell me some good news?”

“I want to do that too, but it’s not working out as well as I wanted.”

The president of the association laughed.

“So what is it this time?”

“Actually…”

I briefly conveyed the current situation.

“…Anyway, because of that, the surrounding associations are reacting quite strongly. “They say they will give up supply altogether unless we agree to the condition that the herb distribution fee will not be increased for 10 years.”

“Hmm, no matter what you choose, you will lose. “Is there room for negotiation?”

“I don’t think there is.”

“What do you think? “Are you going to fight back?”

“Wouldn’t you? “It wasn’t our fault, but the current conditions are too harsh.”

「…? “Isn’t that what you did?”

“President of the Association. “Other people don’t think that way.”

“….”

I could vaguely hear someone muttering, “Am I crazy?”

“I see what you mean. “Okay, I’ll do something.”

“Thank you.”

So I hung up the phone and took a deep breath.

“Well, I think it will work out somehow.”

“Did you really talk to the president of the association…? The Korean Association….”

“Yes. “Why are you doing that?”

“No… Is it okay to unilaterally ask someone so high up?”

“…? “Why not?”

“….”

Juan looked like he didn’t understand.

Well, it could be because the cultures are different.

***

Thailand branch directly managed by the International Association

“I received a call from the Korean Association?”

A very unexpected news came to Branch Manager Praset, who was working in his office.

“Why am I suddenly getting a call from you?”

“Well, since the Korean Association has officially taken over the Vietnamese Association, from now on they will solve it themselves…” “

…What?”

Branch Manager Praset’s eyes widened.

What nonsense is this that Korea has taken over a Vietnamese association?

“I heard that this cost increase was also a problem caused by Viet getting involved in the middle of the merger and acquisition process. When I checked, it had indeed been officially acquired.”

“What is that…”

Since there was no official announcement, it was not surprising that he didn’t know, but that wasn’t what was important right now.

The reason why the Vietnamese association refused to renew the contract was, of course, to make an excuse and demand something bigger.

It was a dying association just a month ago, so I thought that if I pushed a little harder, I could exert influence in Vietnam.

But it turned out that it had already been acquired by a Korean association?

“So… are you saying we messed with the Korean Association?”

Praset swallowed dry saliva and asked.

Instead of answering, the assistant secretary handed over a statement from Korea.

“First of all, we would like to state in advance that this association has nothing to do with Director General Viet, who led the fee increase.”

Praset slowly read the statement.

Roughly speaking, they said that they had nothing to do with this incident and that it was all done by Viet on his own.

But what was important was what happened next.

“Of course, regardless of the relationship, I think there is an obligation to take some responsibility as it happened at the branch.” “

However, we believe that the conditions proposed by the authorities to this association are too excessive, and therefore, if the authorities enforce the current conditions, the Korean Association “We firmly state that we have no choice but to withdraw all subjugation and cleanup support that has been carried out with the authorities in order to minimize damage.” The power

was firmly in Praset’s hands.

“…Is this just for us?”

“no. All surrounding branches also received it.”

“Fuck…”

He bit his teeth as he folded the entrance door.

If conditions are not lowered, the Korean Association will cut ties with all Southeast Asian branches.

Those words were thrown in without even a hint of purification.

This is not a statement….

‘Are you warning us…?’

And then his cell phone started ringing loudly.

“Branch Manager Praset! Have you seen the statement? What is this?!”

“Didn’t you say there was a Korean association involved? If we knew this would happen, we would have negotiated the conditions at the time!”

“Nothing from headquarters?!”

“If we hold out any longer, we’ll be the only ones ruined! “We’ll just come to an agreement!”

The surrounding associations seemed to be in a state of disarray, and calls poured in from all nearby branches.

That’s because, except for the Thailand branch, which was directly managed by the International Association, the remaining branches were almost independently operated.

Therefore, we occasionally requested support from other independent associations, but in fact, Korea was the only association that listened to our requests.

However, since the Korean Association announced that it would no longer accept requests, they were bound to be in quite a bit of trouble.

“Fuck, I thought the house became empty after Viet Nagari… Since when…!”

“What are you going to do? It’s not a good situation for us to be at a loss with the Korean Association…” “

…What are the conditions they proposed?”

“We only proposed freezing distribution costs for one year and there were no additional conditions.”

“Tsk, I can’t help it. I can’t be more greedy. Proceed as is…”

At that time, the office phone rang again.

It seemed to be a complaint call from another branch.

He immediately picked up the receiver in an irritated voice.

“Oh, stop calling me! “We are currently assessing the situation…!”

“How are you? “Branch Manager Praset,”

came a completely unexpected voice.

“Team leader Ma Mark…?”

“Oh, you remember.”

I gulped.

Mark, team leader of the PB Corporation balance adjustment team.

He called me directly.

“I heard roughly the situation. “The Korean Association responded.”

“Yes, yes.”

“What do you plan to do?”

“For us, it’s something we never imagined that a Vietnamese association would be taken over by a Korean association… so we should meet the conditions…” “

Branch manager Praset.”

Team leader Mark I cut him off and opened my mouth.

“Headquarters is very dissatisfied with the hub owned by the Vietnam Association. Should we show weakness now that the headquarters has even implemented a by-product exemption policy?”

“But… you know. “Without the support of the Korean Association, we would have a lot of trouble operating.”

“That’s the branch’s position,”

Team Leader Mark continued, as if he was frustrated.

“In fact, whether the distribution costs are frozen for 10 years or 100 years, it is ultimately a useless cost for the headquarters. Above all, like this time, they may use an increase in distribution costs as a weapon to make all kinds of threats against us. Either way, it’s not a very pleasant story for us.”

“…Is that so?”

“Headquarters has no intention of backing down on these negotiations. Accordingly, we at PB Corporation are planning to take a stronger response accordingly, but we need the help of our Southeast Asian branches.”

“What are we doing…”

“From now on, just do as I say.”

Eventually, Branch Manager Praset, who was listening to his instructions, My face hardened.
