“I'm not going to find another candidate, nor step up as CEO myself. That life no

                   longer suits me. I love strategy more than everyday execution, which leads me to
                   my next question; are you interested?”

                    "Yes, I am” Birger answers resolutely. To be CEO for even longer than he had

                   planned for is great news, but for some reason he still maintains a light frown
                   upon his face.

                   Gustav clears his throat. He knows that Birger has lots of other things he would

                   like to spend his time on as, just like himself. Therefore, he hurries to add.
                   “I have planned, that you get a bonus for such a thing. Another 10 million on top

                   of your CEO salary package, so you’ll end up on a total of 40 million a year for the
                   next two years from now, if you say yes"

                   It takes 20 long seconds before Birger finally responds. "You know what, I'm ac-

                   tually going to step down afterwards. I’ve had plans to stop my business career
                   once and for all, I see no reason at the moment to continue."

                   “Stop your business career?!” Gustav looks at him with surprise, “Very well."

                   “Yes, why should I stay? I do not lack any finances, and I would like to spend
                   some more time with my wife and children. Getting back to drawing and design-

                   ing." Birger sends a big smirk after the last sentence, and for the first time in the
                   course of the conversation he laughs and says.

                   “Of course. I do not say no to 40 million a year and being the head of our South-

                   east Asian expansion."
