Volume 7 Chapter 63 - Kennard???s Departure (1/2)

Kennard was about to leave.

This wasn’t a recent matter and in the past few years, Kennard had mentioned this possibility to Xu Yi before, but this fact became more and more real during the last two years.

As the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s CEO, Kennard had already been in this position for over ten years now.

During these ten years, the major development strategies came from Xu Yi, but when it came to operating the company, it was all controlled by Kennard alone.

It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that if Xu Yi was the soul of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, Kennard was the brain. The importance that he had was self-evident.

If Kennard left the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, the effect on the Frestech Chamber of Commerce was also clear.

Xu Yi wanted Kennard to stay in the Frestech Chamber of Commerce until he passed of old age and Kennard wanted the same, but Kennard was the successor to the Emma family and he had to take responsibility for his family.

Several years ago, the Emma Family had already urged Kennard to go back to help develop the family, but Kennard had rejected this.

However, in the last two years, Kennard’s father, Count Emma had suddenly fallen ill and his condition was getting worse.

So Count Emma and the Emma Family’s people hoped that Kennard could go back to manage the family, performing his responsibilities.

With such a righteous reason, Kennard couldn’t reject.

Since that time, Xu Yi had already made preparations for successors after Kennard left while Kennard had gradually started transferring the work that he had.

The Frestech Chamber of Commerce reorganized two years ago, establishing companies under them mainly because they wanted to give these departments more opportunities to develop, but Kennard’s departure was also one of the main reasons.

Of this, this wasn’t the main reason why Xu Yi supported Freya in learning how to manage a company. What made him decide to do this was because of Freya’s own choice in the end.

But Kennard leaving was a fact and one that had always troubled Xu Yi.

Several years ago, Xu Yi had already started looking for replacements for Kennard and had tried training a few of them.

However, Kennard was not only outstanding, the post that he had was one that had appeared on the Sines Continent for the first time. Other than him, there was no one else that could take this post, so it was hard to find a successor for him.

Xu Yi’s current plan was to train some people for management from the companies under the Frestech Chamber of Commerce and then choose from them.

As for Freya……Her idea was good and she was willing to work hard, but she was still far from being able to take over such a large company.

A month had passed in the blink of an eye and it was the first month of the blazing summer again.

Every year at this time, it was the busiest time for household magic machine companies.

Because when summer came, people’s demand for household magic machines greatly increased. Especially those household magic machines that could help them fight off this summer heat.

Every year at this time, the various household magic machine companies would do all they could to sell their products.

In the past, advertising was just handing out leaflets, having people run around advertising, and other methods that were inefficient and cost a lot.

When the newspapers appeared in each country, the companies all learned to advertise through the newspapers.

In the past two years, because the New Moon Chamber of Commerce started installing the large Magic Illusion Projectors in each major city, the companies all started accepting the advertising method of using illusion films that the New Moon Chamber of Commerce pushed.

Compared to previous years, as long as the companies were willing to invest, their advertising would become countless times better.

Therefore, when summer came each year, it would often be when companies fought with advertising.

Similarly, when this time came, the other companies would all be envious of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.

The reason was very simple, they needed to spend all that money to advertise in the various newspapers and in the Magic Illusion Projectors the New Moon Chamber of Commerce set up, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce didn’t need to do anything. They didn’t even need to spend money and they would advertise better than them.

The various newspapers reported on the Frestech Chamber of Commerce and then as for the Magic Illusion Projectors?

Don’t forget that the New Moon Chamber of Commerce was basically one family with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, even the Magic Illusion Projectors were produced by the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, so naturally they would advertise the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.

With this kind of advertising, how could the other companies compare?

However, it was no use if they envied them. Among the magic machine companies, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce was the goal that every other company looked up to and no company expected to catch up in a short period of time.

So there was no difference from last year when it came to the advertising war this year. All the companies had set their opponents as the companies other than the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, with no one daring to challenge the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s position.
