Chapter 759 – SCP Foundation
Ugh~ Ugh~~!
Subway.
This is public transportation used by most ordinary citizens.
It’s fast.
Cheap.
It is a convenient and reasonable means of transportation.
‘Aww, I’m dying.’
Accumulating fatigue is inevitable.
Dozens of people are inside the narrow compartment.
Shake! Shake!
Every time the subway shakes, it bumps into passengers.
I have no choice but to give my body strength.
〈This station is a trap, a trap station. There is no door to get off.〉
For some reason I feel more tired.
Such a life has become a daily routine.
‘Ah…, It’s so long to give. I don’t have the energy to climb the stairs.’
The subway door opens.
People pour out like liquid in a bucket.
Gurgling! That is.
If you are even a little late, the escalator line will be long.
Buzz, buzz!
When time is tight?
You have to go up the stairs.
That would have been the case if it were rush hour.
‘It’s work time anyway.’
I am a 29-year-old ordinary office worker.
Lee Kwang-soo even saves the energy to turn his head.
Standing like dead.
When your turn comes, get on the escalator.
Weeeing~
Gwangsu’s daily life.
This set route is repeated every day.
‘Huh?’
I went up on the escalator.
All that remains is to get out of the station.
It’s entered in my head.
Worthy of escaping from that mechanical process.
“What is it? What is that smell?”
“Look over there!”
“I wonder where they sell bread.”
A pleasant smell wafts in.
Passersby.
I was thinking the same thing.
I am distracted by the fragrant smell.
At the end of everyone’s gaze.
‘What are they digging over there?’
The line is long.
Even more so than the escalator just before.
The reason.
I can roughly guess.
This is not a road I traveled in one or two days.
『Hamjeong Station Seed Hotteok』
『Manwoldang Chicken Gangjeong』
『Masna Bunsik』
There are all kinds of stores lined up at the subway station.
At first I was interested.
It’s perfect as a snack.
It would be nice to buy it on the way home from work.
Such thoughts.
‘First, it’s not a smell I know.’
It fades over time.
If you walk around with it every day, you might smell it.
The nose adapts.
Because I’ve eaten so much, there are some things I don’t crave.
Gulp!
It goes beyond rational thinking.
Your body instinctively urges you to eat.
On my way home from work anyway.
Gwangsu once again joins the long line.
“Thank you!”
Take that reward in your hands.
The contents I purchased after a long wait.
‘It’s bread…’ …’
Bread.
It’s common, it’s common.
There are five locations at each subway station.
There are four or five bakeries in the neighborhood.
Although it feels somewhat vain.
Ahh!
Eat.
I take a bite as my instinct tells me.
Croissants stacked with paper.
‘W-what is this?!’
Crispy.
Even I, a baker’s disciple, know what I don’t know.
This is properly made bread.
Ah! Ahh!
It smells like butter.
The luxurious savory and salty taste fills your mouth.
They eat it up in an instant without even realizing it.
The whipped cream bread I bought along with it.
‘Fuck!’
As an exclamation, the word “Fuck” Comes out naturally.
It feels like biting into a whipped cream balloon.
Cream bread.
It’s been a long time since it became a trend.
I haven’t tried one or two myself.
“Do I have to come all the way here to buy bread? Can’t I buy it in the neighborhood?”
“They say it’s the best ever.”
“Bread is the same. How much of a difference is there?”
“Again.”
“Yes…”
It’s worth waiting in line.
I can understand the couple who came from far away to buy bread.
‘Can I eat this every day?’
That hard work.
You don’t have to spend it yourself.
This is a station you pass by on your way to work.
Pop! Pop!
You can buy it and eat it every day.
This delicious bread was freshly made.
‘What is this really…? …’
Suddenly tears come out.
Nutrients are supplied to tired hair.
Situation.
Nothing changes.
You have to keep working hard and riding the uncomfortable subway.
Munch! Munch!
If you eat this bread, you will feel better.
I think I’ll be a little happier on my way home from work.
* * *
Business.
It can be said that the first thing that comes first is publicity.
‘Especially economies of scale.’
Many people should buy it.
The so-called peeling process is necessary.
Is that delicious?
The more people know, the more people live.
“Every store that opens has been receiving rave reviews. Even at the Hameong Station branch, there is a long line in the afternoon…”
This is the process for that.
Subway.
It is the fastest way to promote food in Korea.
‘It’s also a way to touch the heart.’
It is a means of transportation used by most people.
An inevitable by-product of the process.
Tiring~!
It’s just about smelling it.
Even the most indifferent and busy people smell.
“It has to be that way.”
“Because it smells amazing.”
“It’s freshly made bread.”
This is a method that has actually been proven.
Everyone will have a memory at least once.
‘It just smells sweet.’
Deli Manju.
This is full bread made by a Korean small and medium-sized company called Delis.
It is not a foreign bread, nor is it bread with a long history.
Nevertheless, it is famous.
Ahh!
Because it was sold in the subway.
A single smell became publicity throughout the country.
“It tasted just as well as we intended.”
“Thank you!”
“Is there anything to be thankful for?”
“Thanks to the CEO, we survived!”
Same context.
Establish a store at each subway station.
The smell of freshly baked bread spreads throughout the country.
‘Self-employed people.’
You cannot launch your own franchise.
In all likelihood, you will be met with dissatisfaction.
It is the next best solution.
Supply products to stores.
The store owner just has to sell it.
“This is my third store.”
“I was wondering if I would have to sit on the street if this store went bankrupt…”
“Oh my honey!”
“Honey~!”
It’s not much different from a franchise.
Self-employed people who cannot survive on their own.
‘If I can’t run a business like that, I have to become an employee. The boss wants to do it even if it kills him.’
Collar carry.
We teach you everything from the recipe to the cooking process.
The owner and his wife are satisfied.
It has to be that way.
There is almost nothing for the store owner to do.
『Fresh Cream Bread』
『Scone』
『Castera』
This is bread made in a factory.
It is delivered packaged in a plastic bag.
Tiring~!
All you have to do is bake croissants and egg tarts.
Because even that is raw.
“The egg tarts also taste perfect. The owner and his wife put a lot of effort into it, and the customers recognize it.”
“We really only have the CEO.”
“Yes, yes.”
Just bake it in the oven.
Even an ordinary person can follow the instructions once they read it.
‘It’s also used a lot in cafés and bakeries.’
So-called raw food.
It is introduced by people who want to make it easier to run a store.
It will be distributed to bakers across the country.
There is one difference
“Fortunately, the response from store owners is good… But will the demand be as high as expected?”
“I’ll come out. Definitely.”
The thing is that it smells weird

News.
It wasn’t even a matter of time before it became known.
“Food markets are using shortcuts. They are supplying their factory-made products to some self-employed people.”
Because I was paying attention.
This is the most important issue for the SCP Foundation.
‘I was a bit confused.’
What if a competitor comes out?
Push back regardless of means and methods.
Daily News− 「The background behind the surprise withdrawal of Ohsung Group’s ‘chaebol bakery’… “Coexistence”
Like the understanding.
One of the affiliates, Gusegae, opened a bakery.
Self-employed people were incited.
A chaebol is even trying to open a bakery.
“Agitation won’t work, right?”
“Yes, the effect will be minimal. If you make a mistake, there may be a backlash.”
It is eaten straight from bread.
Even large corporations, or rather large corporations, are weak in public opinion
‘But that doesn’t mean there isn’t a way.’
No. 1 in the industry.
There is no way it could have been maintained in form.
Chairman Jang Moon-geun also believes this.
Percussion!
The executive in charge gives a briefing.
The gap between the SCP Foundation and the food market.
“This is a list of products from the food market. We also obtained the products and reviewed them… But the level of processing is poor. It is no different from that of small and medium-sized businesses.”
” Haha!””
I am sincerer than anyone else about turning bakeries into factories.
We put a lot of effort into product development.
As a result.
At least in Korea, there is no company that can catch up.
The gap has been built up over decades.
‘Do you know that bread comes out quickly when cooked like rice?’
It’s not easy to catch up.
It is not possible to have a lot of money.
Time is definitely needed.
“If you look at the trend aspect… You can laugh in advance. Croissants, egg tarts, and whipped cream bread have long since gone out of style. We, the SCP Foundation, are a company that leads trends in the baking industry.”
It doesn’t wait for time.
When they complete one, they run ahead of it.
‘We won’t be able to narrow the gap in market share?’
Economies of scale.
Only companies that dominate the market can do this.
Otherwise, you will only suffer huge losses.
“Studying these trends is only possible for companies like us that operate franchises. Factory-type companies cannot do this due to their structure.”
“In short, there is nothing to be nervous about.”
“Isn’t Lee Chan-wook a big deal?”
” Haha!””
In other industries, I have heard that it flies and is long.
This is impossible in the baking industry.
‘This is like my hometown.’
It was not for nothing that it was guarded like an iron fortress for decades.
Other companies cannot intervene.
It’s not attractive enough to warrant a huge expense.
I’m tired of my job, and I’m going to fall down.
“I guess I should go play golf.”
“That’s right.”
“I’m worried that our chairman’s swing guests may be rusty. Even though he’s a national treasure.”
“I’m a bit good at it. Hehe.”
Jang Moon-geun was confident of victory.
