“Whoa.”

Rocco’s representative Andrew sighed and said.

“You can only increase this?”

The factory closed due to the coup was one of Rocco’s main factories, producing 500,000 shoes a month alone.

Of course, for Rocco, who is growing, the shortage of supplies is a fatal event.

Therefore, Rocco’s first choice to fill the shortage was to increase production at other OEM factories contracted with Rocco.

But it wasn’t that easy.

“Manufacturers are expressing displeasure, saying that they have to hire additional staff to increase the number of employees since it is already in full operation.”

If it was an additional quantity that was normally generated by a new demand, the manufacturers would have competed with each other.

Once you have installed one more line, it will be a lot of money.

But all manufacturers know.

When this situation is over, the amount that will disappear like a mirage is 500,000.

Of course, there is no way that a manufacturer would like to hire an additional employee to lay the line just to do it for one or two more months.

“Whether you work shifts or whatever you do, you have to make it first, right?”

“But if that happens, the unit price will rise…….”

“shit! What kind of business are they doing while doing what they are comfortable with?”

Andrew said with anger.

“So, how much can you increase it?”

“Combining all of the existing manufacturers … I think about 200,000 people will be able to do it somehow.”

Once, the 200,000 families were somehow solved with the factories they had contracted with, but the remaining 300,000 people had no choice but to find a new factory.

“What about the factory in Fujian, China?”

So I found a shoe factory in China.

It was a factory that made OEM shoes from famous manufacturers other than Rocco, and it was a large-scale factory that produced more than 1 million pairs of shoes a month.

A large-scale factory like this would be enough to make up for Rocco’s shortcomings.

However.

“That’s . . . a contract period of at least six months and a guaranteed quorum of 200,000 per month.”

Andrew said with a puzzled expression.

“6 months? 20 million? Isn’t that crazy?”

Asking for 200,000 monthly guarantee is ridiculous, even for 6 months.

If the coup d’état was terminated early, the guaranteed amount had no choice but to act as a burden on Rocco.

If the factory that is currently closed is restarted at an early stage, it will have to produce 200,000 unplanned additional guarantees for the rest of the contract period.

“At that level, he said that he would convince the maker he was contracting with and set up a line…”

Manufacturers, of course, want manufacturers to focus entirely on their products.

It is not that the manufacturer’s words that he needs to persuade the manufacturer are not without reason, but in this shoe industry where OEMs are so common, it is not uncommon for a large manufacturer to receive orders from several manufacturers at the same time, and above all, all Even taking that into consideration, the proposal itself is too exaggerated.

Angry, Andrew said with a bare face.

“Is this a chance? These bastards…”

Normally, the maker is the best, but there is only one loco factory that has been closed due to the coup.

Other manufacturers that have shoe factories there are also competing for alternative factories, so it was Rocco’s side that caught fire in the current situation.

Naturally, manufacturers are actively using this situation to their advantage.

“Where is the factory in Jinjiang?”

This time Andrew mentions another Chinese factory in Jinjiang, China.

“They agree on a three-month contract, but they also ask for an increased quorum.”

I’m going to die in a hurry right now, but it’s going to end in a tug-of-war with a contract.

Of course, some of them fully accepted Rocco’s conditions, but most of those companies had quality problems or were very small small businesses or new factories.

Reliable factories have the guts, and those who rush to do it are not at all trustworthy.

“shit! Right now, we need at least 70,000 more by next week.”

In particular, the problem was more serious because the shut down factory was exclusively responsible for the amount to be allocated to Europe.

Europe is the market that Rocco considers the second most important after the United States.

I felt goosebumps all over my body just imagining it.

Then the executive, who was thinking deeply about something, said:

“CEO, have you seen the video?”

“A video?”

The executive took out his cell phone and handed it to Andrew.

“This is it.”

“What kind of video is it?”

Skeletons sew along the lines and apply adhesive bonds to make shoes.

“What is this? synthesis?”

“It’s not synthetic, it’s real. It is a Korean Awakener, and it is said that it can summon a large number of skeletons. But recently, I am running a factory that makes shoes using skeletons like this.”

Andrew said with a puzzled expression.

“Then is this a real video? Are you running a shoe factory using summoned water? No, what the hell were you thinking about doing this…? But why did you suddenly show this video?”

“Rocco Korea sent me the results of a meeting with this factory, and the contents were quite interesting.”

“Give it to me.”

Andrew, who had received the proposal like that, said with a puzzled expression.

“Automatic extension of contract period of 1 month? There is no need for a guaranteed quantity, and even if the quality is deteriorated or a defect occurs, the cost is doubled? Isn’t that crazy?”

Everyone is busy digging into Rocco’s disadvantages and betting on good conditions, but this one presented the worst conditions first.

furthermore.

“And this is the delivery price, isn’t this written incorrectly?”

“That’s what I said. The Rocco Korea employee said that the delivery price is possible because the labor cost is close to zero since we use skeletons to make shoes.”

“Then is this really the price?”

It attracts attention with the skeleton and attracts people to the delivery price.

I’ve seen so many shoe factories, but this is the first time I’ve seen such an original and eye-catching factory.

“Aren’t you just making things? No matter how small it is, is it possible to make shoes for humans?”

“Once we checked the sample product, it was said that the quality was satisfactory.”

“Who knows whether the samples were made by skeletons or by humans. The sample is a luxury item, but when mass production begins, where do you see it once or twice?”

“On the contrary, the conditions are good. Don’t you think it’s okay to pretend to be deceived and leave it to you? After all, they say they will compensate twice as much if the quality is degraded, but there is no loss from our point of view.”

“Well… that’s right. How big is the factory?”

“The awakening person took over a total of five shoe factories, and it is said that before the takeover, the production capacity of each factory was about 5,000 people per month when it was fully operational, on average. Of course, after that, skeletons were put in and the production increased explosively… but I don’t know how much it will be because there is no accurate information yet.”

“If you roughly calculate the maximum value and say that each factory is satisfied, you are saying that it is only 5 satisfactions? Then, even if you add a skeleton to that, at most 70,000… No, it’s still Awakened, but 100,000?”

Andrew said with a blank expression on his face without much expectation.

“There is nothing to lose anyway, so try placing an order of 10,000 pieces with the easiest one. They think that if the quality is bad, they will earn pocket money, well.”

*

“president! 10,000 orders have arrived from Rocco!”

asked!

“Material?”

“It is commonly available in the market. You order it and it will come right away.”

It was good.

“Let’s make a macro first.”

I ordered raw materials and immediately started tuning.

It’s a unique design, but anyway, it’s a shoe that people wear, so how different would it be?

For me, who is already proficient in making many types of shoe macros, this is not a big deal.

“how about it!?”

Kim Deok-bae, who confirmed the finished product, said.

“The front width is too narrow. We need to sew more leisurely.”

“OK!”

I’ve gotten used to it since I’ve been fiddling with my shoes, so I finished the tuning in two hours, even though it was my first design.

I said with a smirk.

“great. Just copy it like this and you’re done.”

“Then, shall we stop working on the lines and start with the Rocco stuff?”

“What are you doing, it’s all the same money. Stop doing it at the same time. There are plenty of skeletons.”

Unlike the transport type, all you have to do is stand it up and you’re done, so there are plenty of spares.

“But the machine won’t keep up with that speed.”

“machine?”

“Yes. Sewing, aside from that, I have to print out the shapes for each part, but the machine is already in full operation…”

The principle of the machine was very simple.

Just like making cookies, if you put a mold on the fabric, which is the material of shoes, the machine presses it with pressure and prints it out in the shape of the mold.

It is not difficult to make a frame, but it was clear that it would take a long time to arrive even if you look for a used machine from now on.

I shrugged and said.

“What is that logarithm? If not, you can make it.”

At the very least, it is nothing like a simple machine that presses with pressure.

“Yes?”

When I reached out my hand, the spare bones fell from the subspace that appeared.

And bones that are shaped like machines according to my hand gestures.

In such an instant, a skeleton with a shape similar to that of a machine was completed.

“Voila! Press skeleton complete!”

When you approach the skeleton and press down on its head, the press skeleton presses it down like a machine.

“If you just put an iron plate under here, it’s just the way it looks, and it does the same thing as that machine, isn’t it?”

Kim Deok-bae said with a confused expression.

“Yeah, that’s right.”

“I order as many iron plates as the machine needs.”

“But if you order an iron plate that fits the size of that press skeleton, it takes time to make.”

“I just buy the ones that are made in any size. What do you do to fit the plate size to the machine? All you have to do is match the size of the machine to the iron plate.”

“ah······.”

“What else do you need?”

Kim Deok-bae said in a cold sweat.

“We need a place. All of the other factories, including this one, don’t have space…”

The workers and machines are all ready, and now all that’s left is a place to work.

“Then use the Ceron warehouse.”

The warehouse of the Ceron headquarters (?) that distributed transportable skeletons to porters.

Of course, it was empty now.

“It is illegal to make in a place that is not registered as a manufacturing business.”

“Hey.”

I shrugged and said.

“I already registered. I asked the tax accountant to do it in two hours, right?”

It’s about catching a maker, so I’ve prepared this much in advance.

We have already completed all manufacturing declarations, so the situation is legally clean.

“What more do you need?”

“It seems there is none.”

“OK!”

Now, when raw materials and iron plates arrive, all the spare skeletons are released and completed in the shortest time.

I said with my eyes shining.

“like! Let’s finish it right away!”

*

“Whoa. Compromise by reducing the guarantee quorum at the very least.”

Andrew, who was continuing the emergency response meeting to save the Daeta Factory as usual.

By the way.

“uh······?”

The executive who mentioned Seron said while looking at the phone with a bewildered expression.

“Bur, already?”

Andrew said looking at the executive.

“What else happened?”

“The factory that makes shoes out of those … skeletons.”

“ah.”

Andrew remembered that he ordered 10,000 pieces just yesterday without much thought.

“why. Can’t you? You say you can’t meet the delivery price? Or what, change the contract?”

Of course, he had no expectations for Seron, as he was an Andrew who had seen the factory saying everything he was confident about, but when he signed a contract, he said nothing.

“They say they can’t change the contract…”

“No, that’s not it, I made it all.”

One day isn’t enough time to make the staff familiar with the new design, but you’ve already made it?

The executive handed the cell phone and said.

“This is an email from Rocco Korea.”

Andrew said as he handed the phone to him with an expressionless expression on his face.

“Look or mana, make a rough fuss and say something else… huh?”

Photos of the finished products attached to the email.

By the way.

“···what.”

obey.

It’s so great that it’s not enough to call it the work of a master, but the shoes are well-made.

At a glance, it was a good product with sufficient product quality.

Andrew said as he flipped through the photos with a bewildered expression.

“This too. this too?”

“Below, look at the article written by Rocco Korea staff.”

“As a result of the inspection, all of the 10,000 satisfaction products were judged to be good products. Did you really make 10,000 pairs of good products in one day!?”

When receiving an order for shoes with a new design that has never been made, it is common to have to change lines or expand facilities, and it usually takes a considerable amount of time to prepare in advance, such as training staff.

Just like other OEM factories in Rocco, which were put in urgently right away, have just completed line conversion and are preparing for production.

But in just one day after receiving the order, all of them are made in good quality.

“At this delivery price, at this quality, at this speed? Is this really possible?”

As much as I didn’t expect it at all, the shock came doubled.

“Isn’t this a scam with Rocco Korea employees? Does this really make no sense? Come on, wait a minute.”

Andrew calls the Rocco Korea representative directly from the executive’s phone.

-Yes! Hak Kim Dept. . . .

“I am the representative Endryu.”

-Ugh! CEO!

“I checked my email, can you show me the item right now?”

– Go, it is possible! I’ll show you right away!

Andrew switched to video calls and started checking his shoes.

“Turn it over. Close up there.”

After looking at the finished product for a while, Andrew said with a disappointed expression.

“Really?”

The inscription “Made in Korea” engraved on the shoe was proof of that.

Because there was not a single production plant of Rocco in Korea.

“… well done.”

-no! CEO!

Ending the call like that, Andrew said still with a look of disbelief.

“Does this make sense? No, what is this…”

Then the executive said with a bright eye.

“Maybe this is an opportunity?”

“A chance?”

“Not to mention the cost of delivery, in just one day, we made 10,000 pieces of good quality products. That means it can handle a larger quantity. Even at a factory with only a one-month contract with no guarantees.”

Andrew, who had been distracted for a moment by the absurd news, could quickly figure out what this meant.

“Can you fill the hole? It’s overwhelmingly cheap, and even fast?”

“Yes.”

Andrew said after thinking for a while.

“For now, let’s reorder the remaining 60,000 pieces we need by next week. This time, there are several models, so you can know more clearly.”

Saying that we’ll try to test whether this is a coincidence or not.

Anyway, if there is a defect, you can receive compensation under the contract, so there was nothing to be burdened with.

If this order is also fully digested, it will completely cover the shortage for next week.

“And ask what the maximum amount you can produce.”

“What would you do if good products came out again this time?”

“Whatever, we have to use it properly.”

This is far more overwhelmingly advantageous than having other manufacturers hold the contract period and guaranteed quantity as pawns.

Andrew said with a look of anticipation.

“I wish I could make it better please…”

*

“Six thousand people? Seven models too?”

Kim Deok-bae nodded and said.

“Maybe they want to test it out.”

“Are you still awake? Well, the test is free.”

“In addition, we have received inquiries about what the maximum production volume is.”

I said with a smile.

“I’m slowly getting a bite.”

At first it was boring, but after tasting it, I wondered what it was.

But this is only the beginning.

One mouth becomes two mouths, and two mouths become ten mouths.

“By the way, there are 60,000 people….”

Because there are many types of models, it takes time to tune, but the quantity itself can be completed within a few days by rolling the spare skeleton into a pool for 24 hours.

But it’s not that overwhelming.

The situation has already seen our potential and asked for the maximum production capacity.

If so, you have to show it with actions rather than words.

I picked up my cell phone and called President Park.

-Yes! CEO!

President Park, who is now fully established in the market as my dedicated bone buying agent.

“President Park, we need a lot of bones.”

– You mean bipedal? of similar size?

I trade a lot, so I don’t need to talk much anymore.

“Yes.”

-All right. As fresh as before, I will wrap each one in an envelope and send it to you.

If it’s packed like that, it’s one skeleton at a time.

“please.”

-Yes! Leave it to me!

After finishing the call, I smiled and said.

“You can order anything. I’ll definitely show you what crazy quantities are.”
