Lost in her thoughts, she suddenly felt her phone vibrate in her pocket.
As she pulled out her mobile, she saw it was Hiroshi Tanaka calling. Quickly shaking off her distractions, she answered with a smile, “Tanaka-san, what’s up? Why are you calling me sote?”
With a sigh, Hiroshi Tanaka replied, “Miss, there’s been an incident today. The president is extremely upset and has smashed several antiques at home.”
Feeling a sense of urgency, Nanako Ito asked, “Tanaka-san, what happened? Is my father in trouble?”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Koichi Tanaka exined, “Today, the president took me to Kobayashi Pharmaceutical to finalize a share agreement with their board. After signing, the president along with the financial team transferred 4.5 billion U.S. dors into Kobayashi Pharmaceutical’s ount.”<fnd93f> Content originallyes from find?novel</fnd93f>
Confused, Nanako Ito responded, “But isn’t my father always eager to invest in Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals? If today’s deal was what he wanted, then why is he angry?”
With a helpless tone, Hiroshi Tanaka continued, “Before the president made the payment, I had no idea that Kobayashi Pharmaceutical had changed ownership.”
“Changed ownership?” Nanako Ito eximed in surprise. “What do you mean? Isn’t Jiro Kobayashi missing? Has he returned?”
“No,” Koichi Tanaka rified. “It’s not Jiro Kobayashi who has returned, but rather his brother, who was thought to be dead, has suddenlye back to life!”
“What?” Nanako Ito responded, feeling increasingly perplexed. “I’m getting more and more confused here.”
“Well,” Hiroshi Tanaka sighed, “the main issue is that Ichiro Kobayashi, as the sole heir of Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals, transferred 90% of thepany’s shares to a Chinese firm called Oracle Pharmaceutical.”
Surprised, Nanako Ito replied, “But isn’t my father’s investment in Kobayashi Pharmaceutical just 30%? If Ichiro Kobayashi only holds 70% of the shares, how can he transfer 90% to a Chinesepany?”
In disbelief, Hiroshi Tanaka exined, “This is precisely why the president is furious! He signed the share agreement with Masayoshi Kobayashi, the acting president of thepany, and made the payment afterward. But with Ichiro Kobayashi’s return, the equity agreement signed by Masayoshi is now void.”
Nodding slightly, Nanako Ito said, “So, my father’s n to acquire a stake in Kobayashi Pharmaceutical has failed?”
“It’s more than just a failure,” Tanakamented. “The chairman of Oracle Pharmaceutical has made it clear that despite Ito Co., Ltd. transferring 4.5 billion U.S. dors to Kobayashi Pharmaceutical, he will not refund it!”
“What?!” Nanako Ito eximed, incredulous. “How can someone be so shameless? In an equity transaction, when we make a payment, the other party must provide the corresponding shares. If they refuse, they should return the money along with damages. How can they just keep our money without giving us the shares? This is outrageous! Don’t they know about Japanesews?”
Koichi Tanaka expressed his frustration, “Miss, the other side is nothing short of an extrajudicial lunatic!”
“Extrajudicial lunatic?” Nanako Ito furrowed her brow. “Given my father’s character, he would never ept such a loss. Does he have no response nned?”
Hiroshi Tanaka sighed again, “Of course, the president doesn’t want to suffer this loss. He initially wanted to confront the other party aggressively, but I advised against it. He can’t afford to provoke them! Oh, by the way, you know this person too, Miss.”
“I do?” Nanako Ito asked, surprised. “Who are you talking about?”
Koichi Tanaka replied, “It’s Charlie Wade, the coach from Aurora who injured Mr. Yamamoto Kazuki with a single strike!”
“What? Charlie?!”
Excited, Nanako Ito eximed, “Charlie-kun hase to Japan?!”
