Ethan Hunt: Billionaire God of War
Chapter 597 - 598

Chapter 597

The meeting room started to get very chaotic.

All business partners here are considered mid-level in Starling City. All the best retailers and distributors carry only overseas brands.

But since the Palmer Group has just begun to rise, they will not change their minds just because they have produced a bestseller. After all, for them, this product was originally inferior.

"Please shut up," Sabine finally spoke up after a while as she couldn't take it anymore.

"You're all here to discuss business, so please calm down. CEO Palmer won't force you."

What he meant was clear. He would not force anyone either.

The Gelatic family is very influential in the illegal circle, so everyone has to work with them so that they do not bring problems on themselves.

But when it comes to growing their own business, no one is willing to give up. Moreover, no matter how powerful the illegal circle was, they would not dare to interfere in the business in the legal circle.

They can't force anyone to do business.

"Strick Miss, we're not trying to make things difficult for you, but CEO Palmer's decision was a mistake. We can't just see ourselves missing out on a valuable opportunity to make money."

"Make money! Make money! That's all that matters!"

They all shook their heads and there was disappointment written on their faces.

They think that they can make a big profit by working with Palmer Group. But Diane has gone crazy and wants to set her own industry standards.

It was a wasted effort.

Diane remained silent and sat there as she listened to everyone say their opinions and requests.

He knows that everyone wants to make money and only thinks about making money. He knows that making a profit is the main goal of a business as well.

But he also knew that if everyone wanted to make money and make more money than ever before, they would have to increase the size of the industry. Once the cake is bigger, they will eat more and become fuller.

But now they were constantly at the mercy of others.

When your products do not meet international standards, your products will be inferior products and absolutely cannot compete with those big names.

Butwhy?

His product was no worse than someone else's product, so why should he accept the judgement of the other party?

Why could others choose to be industry players and judge other players at the same time?

On what basis?

Diane refused to give up on this.

He glanced at Ethan and he didn't say anything. He simply nodded and used his eyes to tell her to go ahead and do whatever she wanted. He will support her no matter what.

Diane became determined.

"Everyone!" He stands. "Everyone, please calm down."

The meeting room became quiet.

"I know where you all came from. You believe that this is a wasted effort and we could even miss out on the best opportunity to sell this product" he said seriously. "I also know that you are all under great pressure to make money, because otherwise, it is difficult to answer to your shareholders and staff. I understand all this!"

Some of them nodded. Since Diane understood all of this, why would she make such a decision?

Isn't it good enough to make money secretly? Why bother challenging overseas brands and their standards?

"But have you considered this before?" ask Dian. “Those who set the standard, but make our products compete with them. Those who say that our products are substandard and can only be one level lower than them. So they might sell 1,000 and we can only sell 300. But are our products really worse than theirs?"

"Because that's the case, don't you get less for nothing? Doesn't your heart hurt when you think about it?"

"If we want to expand domestically, then we have to make a decision. Otherwise, we will always end up with leftovers. Are you satisfied with eating these leftovers?"

"And one day, if they don't even let you have leftovers, what will you do? We must maintain our own line of life!"

Chapter 598

They know what Diane's talking about.

Satisfied?

Who will be satisfied?

They were angry, angry, and some people had tried to oppose this before. But what happened in the end?

It always ends in failure.

Even someone who has spent more than 30 years in the industry like Mr. Dorian cannot achieve this and must retire with regret.

Now Diane wanted to do this just because she said so, but this was an impossible task.

"Even if it's leftover, at least it keeps us 30% full. If you compete with the big brands themselves, they will not let you go. They will take action and make sure the Palmer Group's new products never see the light.day," shouted someone angrily. "Your company doesn't mind making a loss, but I agree!"

"Because you're so insistent, then I'm canceling this deal!" The man then got up and left the meeting room with a disappointed look on his face.

"It looks like we can't keep working together anymore. Miss Wren, CEO of Palmer, I hope you can understand where we came from."

"Sorry, but we really can't take this risk with you. We just want to make money."

One by one rose to leave the meeting room. In just a few minutes, the meeting room left only five retailers.

They sat there and thought about the matter.

They hesitated because they knew that this decision might be their downfall.

"CEO Palmer, we're sorry." In the end, the five of them got up, exchanged glances and shook their heads. "We hope you can reconsider this decision carefully. Don't make the wrong decision just because you're young."

The meeting room was empty.

There were more than a dozen partners before, and now there was not a single one left.

Clearly they had lost faith in Diane and they even thought that Diane's decision was the path to death.

It was like sending a wonderful opportunity to the grave, or throwing money into the sea.

They all want to cancel their partnership with Palmer Group to pressure Diane into facing reality.

And what is reality?

Making money is a reality!

This is a deal that is supposed to make money, so why waste it?

Why bother doing all these things that won't end well?

Everyone knows that they need local industry standards, but it is too difficult to achieve them. At least, they felt that it was something impossible to do.

So, instead of wasting time and energy, why not make money the good old way? So what if it's the rest of the market left behind by overseas brands?

Even a little money is money!

They all know that young people have dreams of success in their careers. But dreaming of all these things is impractical, and one must return to reality.

They believe that Diane will give up.

The meeting room is now left with Diane, Ethan, Sabine and several directors from Palmer Group.

Dian is still standing. He looked at the empty seats where the retailers and distributors were sitting and said nothing.

Ethan offered no words of comfort. This was the choice Diane made, so she had to stick around.

He will always be a strong supporter. As long as Diane wanted to do something, she would give her full support.

"CEO Palmer," one of the directors spoke up. "Are we still going to do this?"

"Yes!" Diane answered without hesitation. "Since we have decided on this matter, then we must solve it. We can't give up just because there's some resistance."

"If we can see this through, the Palmer Group will be able to change for the better, then we will have the opportunity to become a really big company and create our own brand!" He's very confident. "I'm pretty sure that this is the right path!"
