Chapter 559: Termination of Contract
Chapter 559 of "Supreme Divine Physician in the City" begins with suspenseful moments: Chapter 559: Chapter 559: Termination of ContractHowever, it was not just that, because this was... Donât miss it!
Chapter 559: Chapter 559: Termination of ContractHowever, it was not just that, because this was only the beginning of a nightmare, not the entire nightmare!
After the cosmetic incident erupted, not only did the distributors demand an explanation, but several cooperating agents who had contracts with Eastern Group also called one after another, wanting to terminate their cooperation with Eastern Group and to reclaim their agency rights.
Even though it meant paying a substantial penalty for breaching contract terms, these partners were prepared to bear the cost!
Terminating partnerships, at this critical juncture, undoubtedly added insult to injury for Eastern Group.
For a company that primarily operated through agencies, losing agency rights meant losing their space for survival, a blow that was fatal!
Moreover, without the major cooperation partners, Eastern Group was crippled, though they could gain a significant breach of contract fee, at least helping them through the immediate financial crisis with some money left over!
But this was merely quenching thirst with poison, it did not solve the fundamental problem.
Problematic cosmetics remaining unresolved would create an extremely adverse impact on the market, completely destroying the brandâs value! Once the group lost its own brands and the ability to generate revenue, it also lost its long-term strategy, suggesting the company had reached its end.
If a new cooperation agent was not found to eliminate the negative impact of the problematic cosmetics, Eastern Group would lose the market, and its closure wouldnât be far off!
As of now, Eastern Group had only two feasible solutions to overcome the immediate challenges:
One was to find those partners demanding resolutions, persuade them to continue collaborating with the company, and then rapidly recall the problematic cosmetics from the market to get back on track.
Two was to abandon these partners, use the breach fees they paid, and quickly find new partners! Thus, Eastern Group could completely secure an agency right for a major brand within a short period and resolve its current crisis.
Both options seemed easy, but implementing them was very difficult!
Because anyone could see, though this crisis happened suddenly, the extent and spread were unexpectedly broad, seemingly driven by hidden forces, not naturally occurring.
Behind this, there must be a huge capital manipulating things, aiming to bring down Eastern Group!
Since someone was sabotaging, they would not easily allow Eastern Group to regain the agency rights, naturally trying every means to stop Eastern from managing new products. The process was bound to be immensely tortuous, leading Eastern Group towards unavoidable destruction.
In other words, to escape this quagmire now, one could either unearth this hidden manipulator or require the intervention of a powerful capital to help Eastern Group escape death!
Otherwise...
This time, Eastern Group was truly in a precarious position, at a dead end. Ultimately, its fate was only destruction!
Chairmanâs office.
Bang!
A heavy slap hit the table, Lin Tongâs face was ashen as she yelled at Lin Tong in front of her, "Are you satisfied now? Eastern Groupâs downfall is all your doing! What else do you have to say?"
Lin Tong took a deep breath and said evenly, "I will resolve and handle this matter. Eastern Group wonât collapse just like that, you donât need to lecture me."
"Resolve? Handle? You speak so lightly! How will you resolve it, how will you handle it? What methods do you have to solve this problem!"
Lin Dongfang yelled loudly, his gaze clearly filled with disdain.
"I will go negotiate with them, letting those cooperating partners continue to work with Eastern Group," Lin Tong said calmly.
"Just with you?"
Lin Dongfang scoffed, "Do you have any idea, from morning until now, one call after another from those partners has come in. If there wasnât someone signaling them from behind, would they dare act so boldly? You think you can convince them, taller than the mountain of the Song Family behind them?"
He fundamentally did not believe Lin Tong could accomplish this, it was clear that this matter was supported by the Song Family. With such a colossus blocking the way, even if Lin Tong was highly capable, she couldnât regain the agency rights for the partners.
This had exceeded an individualâs capacity; the Song Family was truly seeking a serious confrontation!
"Why not try and see if we canât get through?" Lin Tong said coldly.
"Overestimate yourself! Is the Song Family something you can contend with? What if you canât get across, do you want to see Eastern Group close down?"
Lin Dongfangâs face darkened as he shouted loudly.
"I think it is you who is overestimating yourself, stop hanging the Song Family on your lips all day long! I advise you to keep your distance from the Song Family. If this incident is really their doing, insistent on opposing Eastern, then their destruction isnât far away!"
Lin Tong warned Lin Dongfang and then turned abruptly towards the office door.
She knew, as long as Ye Xuan was around, he would absolutely not tolerate the Song Family acting up; if they overplayed their hands this time, the ones facing catastrophic disaster would be the Song Family!
"Hmph, you still yell at me? The Song Family is one of the four major families of East Sea City, high untouchable, how could they be wiped out?"
Lin Dongfang snorted coldly, taking Lin Tongâs words as a joke, shouting towards her retreating figure:
"If you canât regain the agency rights, you might as well not sit in the CEOâs seat! Even if it means binding, I will tie you to the Song Family as an apology."
As Lin Tong reached the door, hearing Lin Dongfangâs words behind her, her eyes revealed a hint of heartache, her teeth biting hard into her red lips.
However, she did not linger, and directly left the place.
Returning to her office, Lin Tong immediately called Ye Xuan: "Ye Xuan, itâs urgent, come over to my place quickly."
At the same time.
After Lin Tong had left, Lin Dongfang, infuriated, sat back in his chair and also made a call, to his driver Xiao Li.
"Xiao Li, prepare the car immediately, I need to personally go to Bangyao Group!"
He couldnât place his hopes on Lin Tong; now, the most crucial thing was to seek the Song Familyâs forgiveness! Therefore, he had to personally make a trip to rescue Eastern Group from this quagmire involving the Song Family.
After receiving Lin Tongâs call, Ye Xuan, without a second word, rushed immediately to the CEOâs office.
As he entered, he asked, "Wife, did you call me here because of those problematic cosmetics causing the distributors to make trouble?"
After the issues at Eastern Group arose, he was just having lunch in the cafeteria, having heard about the situation from others.
Later, when the distributors caused a scene at the company and the security department intervened, as the sales manager, he also went to assess the situation.
Naturally, he heard most of the details!
Lin Tong shook her head, her expression solemn as she said, "Itâs not that, itâs something more important than that, the company is currently facing an even greater crisis!"
