City's Best Divine Doctor-Chapter 1745 - 1705: Who Did We Offend?

When Boss Zhong was having fun with a minor celebrity from Hong Kong in a five-star hotel, he unexpectedly received a call from a lawyer in Paris, France, notifying him that his agency rights and business rights for the Louise brand clothing were being terminated in advance, with compensation according to the double price specified in the contract.

Cancellation?

What’s going on?

Boss Zhong hadn’t reacted yet. To him, representing a high-end brand like Louise was like having a golden goose that lays golden eggs.

Now that the head office wants to take back the agency rights in advance, does that mean his golden goose will be gone?

Boss Zhong suddenly sobered up, pushing away the hand of the minor celebrity to find out what exactly was happening.

On one hand, he needed to communicate with the Louise brand in France, and on the other hand, he definitely needed to handle the relationships involved.

"Boss Zhong, are we not playing anymore?"

"We’ll talk about it when I get back."

Boss Zhong immediately took out his phone and asked his secretary to buy him a plane ticket from Hong Kong to Paris as soon as possible.

A direct flight from Hong Kong to Paris takes about fifteen to sixteen hours.

As he found a first-class ticket for a flight in the next two hours, Boss Zhong immediately had his secretary book it, taking along his secretary and two lawyers.

He knew that Westerners are very particular about contracts and laws.

...

When Boss Zhong arrived at the headquarters of the Pacific Group in Paris, he didn’t see the female CEO; he only met two of their lawyers.

"Why reclaim the agency rights in advance?"

Things are selling well now, and Boss Zhong had hoped to continue collaborating with the Louise brand when the contract expired next year.

"Mr. Zhong, I’m sorry, Miss Louise said your female sales assistants have very poor attitudes, which damages the Louise brand’s reputation. She wants to take back the brand in advance. As for the compensation, it will be according to the contract we initially signed, which is double the profit price."

Poor attitude from the female sales assistants?

What’s the matter with this?

Unable to recall, Boss Zhong quickly said, "I want to talk to Miss Louise personally. I’m afraid there might be some misunderstanding?"

"Mr. Zhong, Miss Louise has entrusted all of this to us to handle. If there’s anything, you can speak directly with us. Miss Louise is too busy and doesn’t have time to meet with you."

Currently, Louise’s brand is preparing for the Paris Fashion Show, and in a while, they will also fly to the London Fashion Show, the Milan Fashion Show, and the New York Fashion Show. Additionally, Prince Perfume is selling very well too.

"No, I must meet with her," said Boss Zhong.

"Since Mr. Zhong insists, you can sit here and wait for when Miss Louise has time to see if she can meet with you again. However, regarding the termination of our company’s contract with the agent, we need to complete it promptly. We don’t want the head office to suffer more significant losses."

Termination?

That’s even more impossible.

Boss Zhong wanted to delay time. He needed to figure out where the problem lay. Was the head office envious of his profits, so they wanted to reclaim the contract in advance?

Or was there another issue?

Boss Zhong sat there alone, with no one paying him any attention. But the more he thought, the more puzzled he became, suddenly recalling a call from a female store manager on the East Sea side a few mornings ago, and then the incident quickly followed.

Could it really be because of that?

That would be making a mountain out of a molehill!

"Who’s calling? It’s the middle of the night, can’t they rest?" The young wife was resting at home with her husband. It was the middle of the night, and the phone kept ringing. The husband asked, displeased.

When the young wife answered the call, she found out it was from the Hong Kong boss, and she quickly said, "It’s a call from the boss."

What’s the boss calling at this hour for?

"Boss, what’s the matter?"

"What’s the matter? We’ll soon be out of business. What happened yesterday morning? Did your female sales assistant offend someone? The head office is now reclaiming our agency rights in advance."

The young wife knew that the Louise brand boutique was just under the Hong Kong boss’s agency rights, not the real big boss type.

Unexpectedly, something really happened.

How could this happen?

"Boss, how could this happen?" the wife asked.

"Tell me in detail what happened," Boss Zhong asked.

The young wife quickly came to her senses and described the incident from yesterday morning when a young man and four others came in to buy clothing.

Soon, Boss Zhong felt it was definitely related to that young man.

"Are they from Huaxia?"

Isn’t the Louise brand French?

Moreover, he knew about the Louise family.

"Yes, they’re from Huaxia. I think the guy’s name was Ye something Qiu, I think he’s called Ye Qiu," the wife recalled.

Ye Qiu?

Boss Zhong hung up the phone. He felt the problem lay here.

The young wife still wanted to say something, but unexpectedly, the Hong Kong boss had already hung up. Now she couldn’t get back to sleep. For her, her current income was very high, with an average of over fifty thousand, five times higher than her husband’s salary. If she lost her job, how could she live in East Sea? They had been planning to buy a house in the next two years, but now it seemed there might be a problem.

"Wife, how about we have some fun?" Her husband in his thirties had been holding her just now, eavesdropping on the conversation between her and the boss, thinking they might have some unspeakable secret, given the late hour.

One could say that economics determines the superstructure, and it’s the same within a family. Economics determines the status of a family. This young wife’s salary was much higher than her husband’s. Now, seeing her husband, she said, "What fun? We’re about to lose our jobs, and we might have to survive on northwest wind, and our son might not even get to attend a decent kindergarten."

She was in no mood for anything else. If the Hong Kong boss’s agency rights were reclaimed, it would mean the business rights for the brand would be taken back. The store would surely close, or another new owner would take over. By then, whether she would remain the store manager was uncertain. Finding a new job might not even pay fifty to sixty thousand a month, even if it was fifteen thousand a month.

Without money, living in East Sea was undoubtedly impossible.

The young husband, hearing his wife’s words, also suddenly came to awareness. He didn’t know what was happening at his wife’s company. If she indeed lost her job, it would be disastrous. The family was entirely dependent on her income, as his salary wasn’t even enough to cover the rent.

Both of them were probably unable to sleep. After all, having such a high monthly salary, then going back to the previous ones would be intolerable. Now they just hoped the Hong Kong boss could resolve the issue since he should be more anxious than she was.
