Episode 98's



At one o'clock in the afternoon, the meeting was just about to start. Steve in neat clothes sat among all the employees from all over the division.


Stevie sits next to her sister, while Miko sits across from Stevie.


Mira, Eva, Zico and the other devis sat facing each other.


"Today there is the introduction of the latest models of Belagio shoes, the design and design part, is it ready with your presentation?" Steve started talking, he leaned his back on the chair that could rotate clockwise.


The development planning department is ready, they present the results of their discussions in front of all other divisions as well in front of Steve as the head of the company.


"The design that we show is a type of model made from light fiber. Where users will feel very comfortable in addition to fireproof and damage resistant, this type of model is very trendy according to the times," said the head of the developer team representative began to explain. "In addition, this latest model still maintains a sporty side so that users are easier to make movements" he added.


Before everyone, this middle-aged man explained his presentation well. Pacing in front of the LCD projector, explaining the details so that everyone in the meeting room was amazed.


"For this latest model, the French vendor is the only country to have ordered it three months ago" he said. "They are very enthusiastic to welcome the launch of this product, considering the fashion country does not want to miss about the expensive shoes of the Belagio type. In fact they blatantly say ready to become the second country as a selling country in addition to the country of origin of production."


"Is it possible that this latest model of shoes will experience great success?" Zico interrupted. "There are a few things that must be considered, mainly raw materials."


Zico likes this presentation, but he doubts even though there is no impact on the lack of material.


"For the estimation of the material at once so as not to lack materials, we have brought the best rubber materials from all over Indonesia. Mr. Zico should not be afraid of the lack of materials, because semi-finished raw materials are not rare even though lately it is the rainy season," he explained.


"Has this newly developed model been patented?" ask Steve to interrupt. "Patent rights are very necessary considering the products of the wong group are famous for their qualified quality."


"For patents and registration rights have been registered in the office of the ministry of industry and commerce. In the future there is no need to fear the latest models and designs of Belagio shoes affected by plagiarism scandal. Because the authorities of the ministry of the chamber of commerce and industry have guaranteed that the wong group is the only company that has the best quality shoes in the world," explained the head of the planning and development division at Steve, who owns the shoes, especially for all members of the meeting.


Steve nodded while massaging his chin. "Do what you think is best. Next week make sure this latest model is in production," said Steve ruled. "But remember, try to produce it in limited quantities. We have to look at the prospect of this shoe seller in the future. Whether there is an increase in demand or actually a decrease in demand" said Steve reminded.


"For the number of decreased product demand from a number of large countries in Asia, Mr. Steve does not need to worry about it," the head of the planning department replied. "According to the sales statistics and human resources, the belagio brand shoes from the wong group are shoes that never disappoint their fans. Therefore, our planning and development department is very confident that this latest model can attract the attention of millennials today."


"Are you sure this model will be a huge success in the market?" Stevie who had just listened to the presentation ventured to speak. "In my personal view, it is true that the sales outlook for products is somewhat bright, but the sales quarter must be weighted. Don't let production fail to happen again like last year in Vietnam."


"Mom Stevie don't worry. We've planned everything carefully" he replied calmly. "The introduction of the model this time is followed by the latest output of sports products. Where previously last year sales increased along with the title of Asian games event. Therefore, balancing the pace of sales growth will always be monitored by us. So far there is no significant decline, at least 0.001% to 0.002% it only occurs once every five years. Our planning and development team will minimize all the concerns of Mr. Steve and Mr. Stevie" he explained.


"If according to Mr. Suwito is absolutely sure, then I agree with your plan," said Stevie inevitably have to follow the trend of the employees. "Original production rate according to curva demand."


"I agree with Stevie's statement" said Steve. "The production rate must be balanced with the demand curva so that the sales price is stable."


"For that, we have prepared a plan where our initial production is only three hundred pieces," the head of design said in a statement.


Steve nodded in agreement over the results of the presentation this afternoon. He liked the arguments and discourses that the development team had just presented.


"How about Miko, do you like the latest model of this shoe?" I asked Steve to the teenager. Steve rolled out the LCD projector using a remote control, he asked for Miko's opinion as a model and representative of the young shoe lovers.


Miko nodded, she was very fond of the latest design of shoes shown by Steve. "Very cool," said Miko amazed. "This good design model will definitely make teenage children will love it, especially the color chosen according to the character. There will be many who buy it" said Miko.


"It should be that the development planning and graphic design teams do their best" Steve appealed.


"For the plan, we wanted to add a little detail to the bottom of the shoe" the man who explained in front of Steve interrupted. "We want to add strong shoe soles with thick soles. This allows the Belagio shoe type to be different from other shoe brands that are trying to imitate."


"For this idea I agree" sambar Stevie. "When the streets in the malls of Hong Kong and Shanghai and some cities in China some time ago, I saw in the storefront mall emblazoned with low-end mock shoes from the company abal-abal. They purposely use the same design as the belagio in order to get double profit."


"What Bu Stevie said is correct" said the head of the planning and development department. "There have been reports from consumers about this impersonation. From the copycat side they can not imitate to detail because it is difficult to get a gold logo printed on the shoe."


"So you mean, the development team wants to add details of the logo that has long been the identity of the product?" Steve guessed the direction the old man said.


"True sir" he answered. "As long as the logo cannot be imitated, it is very easy to distinguish which is the original Belagio and which is the fake Belagio."


Steve had thought about this, it is clear that many large and small companies engaged in the same field will certainly look for loopholes to get a semblance of product identity with what is produced by his company.


Steve has thought about the consequences of the rapidly growing number of new products belonging to the Belagio collection and belagio sport brands.


"I leave it to you, the planning team and the public relations team" said Steve. "Be careful with every product that will be produced, lest there are other products that can imitate the latest models and designs of Belagio shoes. Make sure it can be overcome," Steve orders once again firmly.


"Sorry sir, may I propose?" The elder who attended the meeting. "If my advice may be, is this type of shoe the same as the previous type of shoe?" The old man sitting in the corner with his glasses proposed his idea, though he hesitated, afraid that Steve would not hear his proposal.


"Good advice" said Steve. "For this year's type of shoe, we'd better use a new type."


"If you may know, what type of name you will use for this latest product," Stevie again interjected, he was curious about the idea of his sister.


Steve weighing. He was also a bit confused about having to use what name suited this type. "What if you use the name SD-2019?" Steve proposed after thinking hard about naming this special type of shoe.


Stevie frowned while biting her finger. "What kind of name is that?" Said confused. "Not the name of a virus, is it?"


"No" replied Steve. "SD-2019 has a meaning, which is SUPER DEFINITION in accordance with the product design. Where this product is launched with super quality right in 2019. Therefore, I named this type of shoe as SD-2019" he explained.


The members of the meeting who heard Steve's proposal strongly agreed on naming this type. Rarely is there a CEO who wants to contribute to naming a product for a product in his own company.


Steve laughed happily as everyone appreciated his proposal.


Stupid people, Steve murmured. Though I gave a name not because of a good plan, but because I remembered my woman, he said in his heart.


Honestly, Steve wants to admit that SD-2019 is not just any name that he uses. But he wants to capture his name and the name of Dinda in shoes that will be produced later.


SD-2019 actually sulked on the name of Steve and Dinda where they officially dated in 2019. With his silly idea he actually gave the initials to the type of shoe. Steve held back the chuckle because of his silly idea in naming the type of shoes that will be in production.


No matter what type of person Steve was wearing, all meeting attendees seemed to like this type of name. A unique name, not even on the type list with a name that seems very short.


Everyone in Steve's office was at this important meeting. Only Dinda was absent because Steve had bought food and coffee for the meeting. Because of so many orders, it took time for Dinda to wait for the whole thing to be completed in the message.


Now it's the financial team's turn to report their share. Steve asked them to explain the profit and also the price set for the shoes.


Mira first forward wants to present the results of their discussion about sales pricing.


But while about to present the results of their thoughts, Mira suddenly realized that the proposal and the flash where the file was stored was not carried.


"Where is the flash and the proposal file I gave you yesterday?" ask Mira to Eva. As she remembered she gave it to Eva, before she left work a few days ago.


Eva who was sitting relaxed was a bit surprised because of important meetings like this financial section forget the important media in the presentation of the meeting. "Isn't it Ms Mira herself who asked for the file yesterday to be given to Mr Steve when Mr Steve didn't go to work for the past two weeks?" reply Eva. He frowned, he was a bit scared let alone the stiff face of Steve glancing at the entire finance team with a look of intimidation.


"Ck," Mira shook her head, massaging her head. Eva was careless, leaving the little thing in Steve's room unnoticed by the man. Mira had to endure embarrassment in the face of all her colleagues for being negligent in guarding that important object.


"I'm sorry for everything. I'll take the file for a while, "Eva is trying to fix this ambiguous and tense situation.


Steve took the shake, he thought before attending the meeting should be all the needs and the media presentation should be ready. But why is it now even becoming chaotic like this.


In his chair, Steve massaged his head. Even Stevie felt the aura of Steve's anger held back.


Eva passes, she picks up the flash and proposal files left in Steve's room. Because of the tense situation, Dinda who passed him in the office corridor did not touch Dinda's greeting earlier.


"Tumben didn't say anything, seemed to be busy?" said Dinda scrunched her forehead, her hands filled with several boxes of food.


At Steve's desk, Eva was busy flipping through the files. Look for the flash and also the important proposal.


While in the meeting room, Steve who was waiting for Eva felt rather bored. He tapped on the long glass table with his index finger.


He crossed his legs propping up on the others' feet, while his eyes glanced at the clock. He calculated how long it would take to waste due to delayed presentations.


Waiting for five minutes in a large meeting room, suddenly the Office boy broke in. "Sir, in the room Mr. Bu Eva fainted," he said with a loud breath.


"Why is it so sudden? what's going on?" ask Steve. Thought what was up, not as usual this happened.


"The situation is precarious sir," replied the office boy. "She had better see for herself."


Steve immediately left the room, without a second thought he left this meeting room with the people who were waiting for the presentation. All the members who participated in this meeting were also shocked, because suddenly like this.


In Steve's room, Dinda weeps over a weakly drooping Eva. "What's this?" shouts Steve. "What's going on?"


Dinda did not say, she cried sobbing lamenting Eva's fate. Steve was initially confused why his woman was crying like that, after he saw Eva's blackened hand there was a snake bite.


Steve scoured his entire room, just below his desk a cobra a few meters long and very large hiding.


Steve was so angry, why could there be a snake in his office. Not far from Eva's legs, Steve quickly pulled Dinda away from Eva.


"Where are these office guards?" shouted Steve beaver. "Why is there an incident like this nobody comes here!" screeched on another employee who peeked at this incident from behind a glass wall.


"Quick call the ambulance come now!" his shout blindly raged because it was so weak for other employees.


Because Steve thought the snake was very dangerous, without fear Steve killed the snake using a golf stick that he always kept in the corner of the closet. He hit the snake on the head until the head of the large venomous snake was cut into two pieces. His fresh blood soiled his office's ceramic floor.


While Zico entered through the crowd of employees who filled the door of Steve's office. She quickly grabbed Eva, taking her out of Steve's room. Although Steve's room in the crowd of employees who saw this incident, but none of them took the initiative to call for help.


Seeing that Eva was unconscious, Dinda continued to sob. Steve felt bad to see his lover crying for his best friend.


Steve hugged her, he let the woman cry in his black suit, he did not want the girl to feel depressed and traumatized by the terror of this snake.


"You take it easy, for sure he'll be fine, trust in you," Steve said to Dinda, he understood a little bit about crying over loved ones.


"How about Eva why-why, I'm afraid something happened to her," said Dinda sobbing.


Steve stroked Dinda's hair. "You believe me, he'll be fine."
