"So, our total expenditure on marketing and advertising for the last five years is five hundred trillion rupiah?" Ken asked Zoya who was now standing right in front of his desk.
Zoya who got a question from Ken nodded her head slowly.
"That's right, sir, and the nominal expenditure on marketing and advertising for the current year is seven trillion rupiah, sir. It is possible that until the end of the current period this year it is one hundred and fifty trillion rupiah, sir." Zoya said answering and explaining to Ken.
Ken who heard what Zoya said was silent for a moment in his place while opening one by one the report sheets given to him by Zoya.
"Hmm, isn't the advertising costs we incur too much now than before?"
Zoya was silent for a moment before speaking up to answer what Ken asked her.
"But all the expenses that have occurred have first received approval from you and several other high-ranking officials, sir."
Ken let out a long sigh hearing what Zoya said.
"I know Malla, but I'm asking for your opinion, isn't the advertising cost we currently spend too much? If you look at our spending last year wasn't as big as it is today."
group..
Zoya struggled to swallow her saliva hearing Ken's words to her in such a firm tone and also sharp eyes at him.
"Yes, that's true, sir. Because there have been some price increases on some materials from vendors and media that we have worked with so far."
Zoya could hear Ken snorting after he explained the information he got from the project team. Because before he came to see Ken at this time, he first contacted the project team regarding the increase in marketing and advertising costs this year.
"Hah, fine. Then you can go back to your room. I'll talk to the project department about this cost increase."
Zoya nodded her head slowly in response to what Ken said, then bowed her head for a moment to salute Ken.
"Okay sir, Ken. I'll excuse myself back to my room. Good morning."
Ken just nodded his head slowly and now his eyes returned to focus on the financial statements that Zoya had given him earlier, then sighed again.
After skimming through the financial statements that Zoya gave earlier, Ken's hand is now stretched out to press the button on his room phone, calling Leo to come to his room right now.
'Good morning sir.' Leo said outside the room after answering the call made by Ken.
Meanwhile, Ken who heard Leo's words immediately opened his voice.
"Leo, come into my room right now."
After saying that Ken immediately ended the call unilaterally, making Leo who was outside the room heave a long sigh and now his eyes turned to Zoya who was standing in front of his desk.
"Mr. Ken, sir?" Zoya asked Leo with a grimace on her face.
Leo nodded his head in resignation and got up from his seat.
"That's right. Thank you for the information you have given me Zoya. At least I already know a little bit what sir will do at this time." Said Leo, who nodded his head in return by Zoya with a small smile on his face.
"You're welcome, sir, if there's anything you want to ask me later, don't hesitate to contact me."
Leo points his thumb at Zoya. "Sip, then hurry back to your room then."
Again, Zoya nodded her head in response to Leo's words and bowed her head briefly in greeting, then walked away from Leo to go back to her room.
"Okay Mr. Ken, good afternoon."
Leo, who heard Zoya's words, nodded his head slowly, then stepped out of the desk, into Ken's room.
Leo stretched out one hand, knocking on Ken's office door until he heard the boss' voice telling him to come into the room.
Knock.. tock.. tok..
"Mr Leo."
"Yes, come in."
Leo stretched out his hand again. This time to open the workspace doorknob.
Leon could see Ken sitting behind his desk with a dark aura that he was used to seeing and feeling during his five years working as the CEO's secretary.
"Leo, I want you to schedule me to meet with the sound media. I want to discuss a cooperation agreement with them."
Leo, who just wanted to nod his head, immediately stopped his intention and rolled his eyes in surprise at what Ken had just said.
"Ekhm, sorry sir. But doesn't Sound Media have special requirements for any company that wants to cooperate with them?" Leo said in a slightly uncomfortable tone to Ken, considering the main requirements that must be carried out if you want to enter into a cooperation contract with the media company.
Ken raised an eyebrow in surprise at what Leo had just said.
"What are their requirements but-ahhh, my. I almost forgot about that." Ken said in an annoyed tone when he almost forgot the main requirements given by the sound media if he wanted to cooperate with the company.
Leo, who saw Ken's reaction at this time, chose to remain silent in his place, he canceled his intention to tell the boss what terms he meant earlier.
Ken, who saw Leo remained silent in his place, opened his voice again.
"Then what do you think I should do so I can cooperate with them?" Ken asked which made Leo silent in his place with unreadable eyes. Even though in his heart he wanted to say cynical words to the Boss.
"In my opinion, it's better if you get married first, then propose cooperation with them, sir." Leo replied in a sarcastic tone but the expression on his face still looked calm without showing any emotion.
Ken raised an eyebrow.
"Married? You think getting married is as easy as you want to buy coffee at the cafe next to our company building?"
Leo casually shook his head in response to what Ken had asked him earlier.
Ken who saw Leo just shook his head and sighed deeply.
"This is an extra task for you Leo. You have to find me a woman who is ready for a contract marriage."
Leo's eyes widened in surprise when he heard what Ken said.
Leo, who just wanted to open his voice to refute what was said by Ken, immediately stopped his intention when Ken suddenly interrupted, especially with a sarcastic tone and also a gaze with sharp eyes directed at him.
"You only have one week to complete the task I gave you. If you can't, you have to be prepared to endure it all."
