The will and would difference

Hey all,

I want to ask you one question about grammar. Kindly review my question and answer as soon as possible.

What is the difference between the two sentences? Which one is correct.

1) We start this Café talking a little bit about how people – “employees,” we would call them – spend their time at work. An “employee” is a person who works for another person. The person who owns the company or the organization would be called the “employer”


2) We start this Café talking a little bit about how people – “employees,” we will call them – spend their time at work. An “employee” is a person who works for another person. The person who owns the company or the organization will be called the “employer”

When you say "We would call" or "They would be called", you are implying that the definitions have already been established by others and suggesting that the definitions are generally accepted.
