191 episodes. Should I meet you when you come?
Direct approval of the CEO.
It is a reporting method where field managers ignore the intermediate approval line and upload it.
There are three meanings to this.
The first is to empower the voices of the field so that they can respond quickly.
The second is to provide a channel for those in charge to make decisions solely for the benefit of the company without being swept away by the internal political situation.
Third, the CEO’s decisions can be transmitted directly to the forefront of the field without going through executives.
The meaning is good, but the authority of a double-edged sword for both the site manager and the CEO.
For that reason, it was a payment method rarely used internally by Lao Tinto.
‘Damn it, you’re saying you’re going to put everything on Isaac for fear of pooping on you.’
Daniel bit his molars silently.
The fact that even the approver cannot escape some responsibility if he is punished makes him shiver at Lionel, who continues to say that he will not hold him accountable.
“Isaac did not properly conduct exploration and drilling in the Ilka area, so he could not measure the amount of extractable light properly and caused a lot of damage to Rao Tinto. “
“……”
Denver’s engineers had been distributed to offices across Australia.
It was not justified that the Western branch’s technical responsibility was responsible for the resignation of all of them.
“Why isn’t there an answer? Hey, don’t you think otherwise?”
“Oh, no.”
“Then will you follow my instructions?”
Even if I tried to disobey Lionel in this place, there was no answer.
Daniel nodded his head in agreement with his words.
“I thought it well. You’ve also reached the position of branch manager, so shouldn’t you have an executive and take charge of the overseas business division?
Lionel asked Daniel after making a generous promise of a promotion.
About Edward Jean, the CEO of All Mining.
“I don’t know much about him.”
“You don’t know? Does it make sense that the party who made a deal with All Mining doesn’t know?”
“That…it wasn’t Edward Jean who led the contract, it was a woman named Jacqueline Berry.”
“Jacqueline Berry?”
Daniel explained about Jacqueline Berry, the second-largest shareholder of Denver at the time.
And it was later confirmed that she was the nephew of Helen Berry, the secretary of the Bearfax president.
“Then you mean that Edward Jean is a stand-up who was set up as a scarecrow?”
“It looked that way to my eyes.”
“Actually, from the point of view of the Chairman of Bearfax, it is strange to have an Asian person sit as the CEO of such an important affiliate. But if he is a scarecrow and the actual CEO is Jacqueline Berry, then the devil would be correct.”
“……?”
“I saw Almaning’s share structure in this listing. Edward Jin had 7 and Bearfax had 3. The company created by exchanging the group shares had 3 shares, and the CEO who did nothing was 7? Isn’t it strange?”
“It’s strange.”
“But it’s a different story if the 7’s owner is passed down through Jacqueline Berry to the Chairman of Bearfax.”
“Henry Bearfax has filled his stomach with the separation of affiliates.”
“It would make sense to look at it that way.”
Lionel smirked and muttered softly.
“Actually, it’s a common occurrence, in this world.”
In the back of the sentence, there was something missing that he had eaten a few in that way.
“yes?”
“No, it’s nothing. Stop it.”
When Daniel left, Lionel immediately summoned his secretary.
“Did you call, sir?”
“Make an appointment with the CEO of All Mining, and cancel tomorrow’s golf.”
“All right.”
Lionel, who was left alone, smirked involuntarily.
‘It’s Edward Jean… Hopefully, I might eat the whole Mining. huh.’

Patrick Trevor asked with a curious expression.
“Is it work?”
“You know what Mr. Trevor was doing, Rao Tinto.”
“no way?”
“Yeah, let’s try to see if that’s the truth.”
This time, we’ll hit Lao Tinto first.
I’m also testing to see if Patrick Trevor actively helps with that.
“Have you thought of a way?”
“How about Archalinga Basin? All Mining is not in a position to develop it right now. Because I have too much work to do.”
“Are you saying you’re going to leave the development to Rao Tinto?”
“Not all, but some.”
“Even if the development area is limited, I don’t know how that’s going to work on Lao Tinto.”
I raised my eyebrows and said to him.
“You’ll find out later when you see the results. But to do that, you’ll have to get Rao Tinto in charge of the development. I heard that DHP Billion also has shale oil mining technology, right?”
“Yes. Are you asking us to be your bridesmaids?”
“Yeah, if your company jumps into competitive bidding, Rao Tinto will be interested, too, because they’ve got Denver’s horizontal drilling technology.”
“Probably so. Rao Tinto bought Denver because we first got into shale oil.”
I’ve heard of it
Lionel, the CEO of Rao Tinto, uses a fast-follower strategy well.
But if you catch up with me this time, you’ll get a portrait.
‘Besides, it’s perfect for experimentation. huh.’
Denver’s horizontal drilling method.
It was a new technology developed by Jonathan Denver based on Chesapeake’s technology, but the biggest problem was that he had no experience in applying it in practice.
Any technology is improved and supplemented in the field.
The trial and error experienced by Rao Tinto will be accumulated as All-Tech’s data.
Because they and we share the same technology.
“There’s just one problem, Mr. Jean.”
“Is that a problem?”
“Bidding. The industry usually conducts on-site open bidding to prevent fraud. If you bid too low, you will be suspicious, but you can’t write too high a price. A development with high business significance like Zun.”
As he said, Australia’s largest oil field development is easy to attract attention from the industry and raises its name.
So, that part is all included in the bid.
“Don’t worry. I’ll tell you the bid.”
“Mr. Jin. Rao Tinto will try to conduct an open bidding by inviting political figures from the Ministry of Energy and Resources to attend. Stealing bidding information is too risky.”
Don’t take it back, because there’s no need for it.
“You just have to trust me.”

Miraculous.
Is this the way things work out?
The prey I was aiming for was coming to me on my feet.
“What is the CEO of Lionel asking to meet?”
“They say it’s to celebrate the ASX listing.”
“Nominally that’s it. What do you think of Lucy?”
“I don’t think it’s a congratulatory greeting, either. If I was going to say hello, I would have done it on the day of the listing.”
“Um? Is he here?”
“Yes, after the event was over, I checked the greetings and it was on the list.”
look at this
I mean, I just came and went to see it.
“Did Chairman Andy Forescue also come?
“No. There was none.”
“Well, that’s probably crazy.”
By now, Baosantz Metal is throwing bamboo bread, and Seongsam Trading Co., Ltd. is slamming it in the back of the head.
You won’t be able to afford to leave.
“When will the Lionel representative come?”
“He said he would come tomorrow. I was recklessly trying to schedule a meeting, so I declined the meeting.”
Are you going to come unilaterally instead of meeting the schedule?
You were very upset.
“Well done.”
Should I meet you when you come?
***
“What!? No?”
Lionel frowned and asked his secretary Selena.
“Yeah, it’s difficult because the schedule is full until next week.”
“Ha! It’s arguing that a small company has entered the ASX200.”
“……”
“Tell me again that it’ll take a minute. It takes thirty minutes to say hello to an hour? These are only raising the nose.
“……yes.”
After the secretary left, Lionel took a cigarette out of his pocket and smoked it to calm his irritation.
When the nicotine was added, the emotions softened somewhat.
‘Hey, even the scarecrow wears a crown, so he knows he’s a king.’
Thinking of Edward Jean made me laugh.
It’s like you’re arguing with someone else’s seat as if it’s mine.
“I… sir.”
Selena came back in and hesitated in a cold sweat.
“what?”
“The All Mining side says they don’t have time. If you want to say hello, just show your sincerity…”
“Stand, castle?”
Lionel was absurd.
The absurd answer only continued to laugh.
“Heh, heh heh… heh heh heh. Nawon Byul…”
The secretary was not restless at his sight.
In this case, it was because the sparks always bounced elsewhere.
just as expected.
“you.”
“……yes.”
“Go back to your seat and post your resignation letter. I won’t have to go to work tomorrow.”
“Dae, representative…”
“Why? Why do I keep using a secretary who promises but doesn’t get it right?”
Selena trembled in contempt and went outside.
“What the hell. Because there are no good guys.”
Lionel pulled out his cell phone and made a call.
“Oh, Daniel. It’s sharp. Do you have the business card of the representative of All Mining?”
-yes. It’ll be on your business card.
“Then I’ll check the contact information of that friend and send it to you.”
-All right.

“Lionel, what does that motherfucker say?”
In response to Isaac’s question, Daniel showed Edward Jean’s number stored in his cell phone and said.
“I’m asking you to send me the contact information of the representative of All Mining.”
“Lionel is meeting Edward Jean? For what reason?”
“I don’t even know about that. Rather than that, it’s about you, isn’t it?”
“Wow, the man named the boss was planning to put me on the back, what should I do?”
“Are you going to accept it like this?”
“So? Should I report it to the Fireworks Ombudsman? There must be one or two government officials that Lionel bribed.”
At his desperate words, Daniel spoke as if he had made up his mind.
“I’ll testify. So report it.”
“Yes? It’s okay. I’m afraid that even the branch manager will take off his clothes. Just follow the instructions. I’m a technician, so many places will accept it.”
Skilled engineers in the mining industry are hard to find even with money.
However, Daniel worked at Lao Tinto for so long that it was difficult to get good treatment even if he went to another company.
It was because he suspected that he was an industrial spy who took out technology and sent it to Lao Tinto, or, conversely, offered all kinds of good conditions to extract Lao Tinto’s technology and would be thrown away if the sweet water ran out.
“Then do this.”
“……?”
“How’s the audit room?”
“Are you going to make an in-house complaint? With just this? At least a few months of honesty would be all you need.”
“I can’t lose you like this. I’ll do everything I can for the faith you gave me.”
“Chief!”
It was then that Isaac got up from his seat.
– Jiying. Jiying.
Daniel’s cell phone placed on the table rang and the name ‘Selena’ appeared on the screen.
“Selena? What’s up with Lionel’s assistant?”
At Isaac’s question, Daniel shrugged and slowly picked up the phone.
“Yes, Daniel Krew.”
