Actually, Masayoshi’s remarks were not unreasonable.There was certainly an information gap between Ito Yahiko and him because of the different understanding of the market.At this moment, Ito Yahiko must have thought that Kobayashi Stomach Pill was invincible, and he would love to get on the money-making bandwagon, which was Kobayashi Pharma.However, Masayoshi and other Kobayashi family members were now aware of the existence of the Apothecary Pharmaceutical. They also knew that at this moment, a type of drug called Apothecary Stomach Pill became very popular in Oskia and Aurous Hill and that the efficacy of the pill was much better than the Kobayashi Stomach Pill.Therefore, upon hearing Masayoshi’s concerns, the others changed their mind almost immediately.A moment ago, they firmly believed that Kobayashi Pharma must have a valuation of at least 20 billion and anything less than that was absolutely unacceptable, let alone 15 billion.But now they realized that it was a rare

Now, Nanako was recovering in Kyoto. Hiroshi went to Oskia the other day to look for medicine for her but was unsuccessful. So, he returned to Tokyo to report back to Yahiko and then stayed in Tokyo.In addition to the Lexus sedan that Yahiko was riding, there were ten bodyguards in two Lexus SUVs sandwiching Yahiko’s car in the middle in the form of a convoy as they drove to Kobayashi Pharma.Inside the car, Yahiko was delighted. He analyzed Kobayashi Pharma’s financial reports and market sales in the past two years and found that the company’s future was very promising. He was certain that it was definitely the best time to take a stake in the company now.Therefore, in his opinion, the 4.5 billion dollar investment in Kobayashi Pharma was like Jake planting magical beans in his backyard. The future harvest was at least 15 billion dollars or more. 15 billion dollars was equivalent to 1.5 trillion yen!No one could sit still and hold back their excitement when the thought of such

At this moment, Hiroshi felt that his worldview had been turned upside down.It was such a shocking revelation to him that the famous sixth leader of the yakuza had died at the hands of a Ninjutsu master.However, he dared not doubt Yahiko’s words because he knew Yahiko’s character very well. The man would never say anything he wasn’t sure of. If he said something, it must be that he had some special sources to make sure that it was indeed the truth.In fact, Hiroshi even suspected that there might be Ninjutsu masters in the Ito family.However, he tactfully stopped questioning because he knew that there were some questions that he should not ask, and there were things that he should not know either.As the assistant of the Ito family and one of Yahiko’s henchmen, his main duty was to serve Ito Yahiko well and be sensible and smart with the do’s and don’ts.Therefore, he said to Yahiko respectfully, “I’m sorry for being ignorant. I did not expect that the legendary Ninjutsu maste

At this moment, Yahiko said, “I’ve always been very optimistic about Kobayashi Pharma, and I am very willing to support your company to take a step further up the ladder. So, I am here today to sign an investment agreement with you. Before we proceed, I wanted to make sure that none of you have any doubts about the intention of my investment, right?”Masayoshi hurriedly replied in a respectful tone, “Of course not. Ito-san, please rest assured that we had already reached an agreement before you came. We are delighted to have you as our company’s investor.”To avoid any hiccups, Yahiko nodded and immediately continued, “Let’s cut to the chase. I have a lot of things to tend to lately, and I’m leaving Tokyo tomorrow, so let’s just sign the contract now and be done with it. If everything’s okay, I’ll immediately inform my finance department to make the payment.”Masayoshi blurted, “Of course! We can sign the contract right away!”Yahiko gestured at Hiroshi beside him and said, “Tanaka

Yahiko did not know Charlie’s reason for being here, and neither did Hiroshi.In Hiroshi’s opinion, Charlie was Aurora’s coach and a martial artist in Aurous Hill who had nothing to do with Japan. So why did he suddenly appear in Tokyo and barge into Kobayashi Pharma’s conference room?What was even more confusing was that Charlie announced himself as the majority shareholder of Kobayashi Pharma!At this moment, Yahiko’s face was twisted in a disdainful grimace.On his way here, he had heard from Hiroshi about Charlie. He was very scornful of this so-called expert, so he did not take him seriously.He sized Charlie up and shouted in a cold voice, “Kid, think about the consequences before you speak. You can’t afford to pay the price of talking recklessly!”Charlie did not know Ito Yahiko. His first impression of the man was that he was in his 50’s with an old-fashioned hairdo and donned an arrogant expression. The man also had a pompous tone of voice.Charlie stared at Yahiko and

Their powerful attacks came to an abrupt halt in an instant!Both of them were astounded by the sudden and tremendous force on their wrists and found that they could neither advance nor pull back their punch. They immediately realized that they had met a powerful master today!They immediately exchanged glances and could see the fear in each other’s eyes. Then, they gestured with their gazes, and at the same time, they exerted their strength, trying to free their right hands from Charlie’s grip.Unfortunately, no matter how hard they tried, they could not pull their right hands back even a fraction!Charlie, on the other hand, donned a smile on his face while looking at them and saying with an intriguing tone, “Guys, your attacks are quite scheming… how can you aim to attack my ribs on your first move!? Aren’t you afraid of killing me?”Anxiously, they shuddered, and one of them said, “We… We just wanted to test your strength, sir. Nothing more!”Charlie laughed out loud. “You ca

“Ito Yahiko?”Charlie’s eyebrows furrowed slightly when he heard the name. He clarified with Hiroshi, “What is his relationship with Nanako?”Hiroshi quickly answered, “Ito-san is Nanako-san’s father.”Then, Charlie came to a sudden revelation. He didn’t really know much about the Ito family. The only person he knew was Nanako.Hearing that the slicked-back Japanese man was actually Nanako’s father, his demeanor eased a bit.Then, he looked at Yahiko and said flatly, “For your daughter’s sake, I won’t be harsh to you. Since you are not a member of the Kobayashi family, I don’t need you here. Take your men and go.”Yahiko blew a fuse upon hearing Charlie’s remark. As the head of the Ito family, he had never been treated with such contempt! Moreover, this young man was very pompous and cocky! What did he mean by being a bigger person for his daughter’s sake? He had gone too far!At this point, Yahiko gritted his teeth and growled, “Kid, what makes you think this is your company an

Masayoshi chided angrily, “You want to monopolize the company, that’s why you killed your father!”Ichiro stomped his feet in agitation and yelled, “Kobayashi Masayoshi, are you f*cking stupid? You say I wanted to kill my father because I want to own Kobayashi Pharma, but open your f*cking eyes and see for yourself! Did I take over the company? Who became the new chairman of Kobayashi Pharma after my father’s death?”With that, everyone exchanged glances as if they had finally realized something.Ichiro was right!After the death of Kobayashi Masao, Kobayashi Jiro, Ichiro’s brother, was the successor to the chairmanship. Moreover, Jiro had put up a lot of money to kill Ichiro.Would it not be a little stupid if Ichiro was the one who planned this? Not only did he not get any benefit from this, but he also gave the chairman position to someone else, and worst of all, the new chairman wanted him killed.At this point, everyone suddenly realized that there might be something else

Later, after Charlie told Jeremiah over the phone about the joint venture with the Ackers to establish Curtis Autos, the old man was awash with tears, especially after Charlie told him that it was Keith who suggested it. After all, Curtis was his favorite son whose death he could never really get over. Moreover, he once believed that only his family mourned Curtis while the Ackers never did, and he held a grudge over his son's passing. As such, he was surprised that Keith held such great respect toward his late son and didn't hesitate to say yes when Charlie invited him to Aurous Hill to sign an agreement with the Ackers.Still, Charlie wasn't in a hurry to arrange for a specific time, and he was going to let the Ackers sort out the human resources of Godot Autos over a few days. It still wouldn't be too late by then.Moreover, he was keen to allow the buzz to have time to grow so that the automotive industry would be astounded by the joint project between the Ackers and the Wade

Christian was the first to exclaim in approval, "Yes! Curtis Autos sounds wonderful! It has my vote!""Seconded!" Kaiden nodded, pumping the air with his right fist. "I've looked up to Curtis the most, and I absolutely agree with naming the company after him!"Jaxson was nodding too. "Me too!""Yes!" Lulu chirped.Yolden couldn't help agreeing as well. "Curtis Autos is definitely a good name!"Merlin raised his hand gingerly as well. "Quit it with your flattery already," Keith chuckled, and he turned toward Charlie solemnly. "In the end, Curtis is Charlie's father, and the final decision goes to him!"Charlie's eyes were welling up with tears—his parents had been gone for almost three decades, yet he had never thought of dedicating anything to their memory.As such, Keith's suggestion to use Curtis's name for the car company left him thrilled. After all, wouldn't his father's soul be honored if Curtis Autos rocked the country, maybe even the world?With that in mind, he nodd

Charlie also had to agree that this was an opportunity to formally reconcile the Wades and the Ackers.While he couldn't reveal himself just yet, the Wades and the Ackers had been in-laws for years. Even if they had had a dispute for the longest time, restoring good relations made sense now that the Ackers had come to Oskia, and it wouldn't arouse any suspicion.That was why Charlie agreed to it without hesitation, even making a mental note to invite his paternal grandfather, Jeremiah, to Aurous Hill.The old geezers could meet up and clear the air while deciding on the partnership.Yolden was prepared to resign as a professor as well so that he could help the Ackers and Charlie fully develop their automotive company.With a general direction planned, he asked everyone, "Since we're creating a new brand, has anyone come up with a name?"No one was feeling inspired at that moment, but that was when Lulu, who had been silent throughout, said, "Since Charlie and our family are worki

Neither Charlie nor the Ackers expected Yolden's insight to cover all corners.In fact, it felt like the man had a blueprint ready and was only waiting for the time to put it to use.That was why everyone was immensely approving of Yolden and wanted no other man for the job of CEO.Kaeden smiled, "Well, since everyone has agreed, let's put this to rest as soon as possible—this will be a joint investment between our family and the Wades, and Professor Hart will take the post of CEO. Let's all do our best to make this a good one!"Yolden also made up his mind, deciding that he didn't want to let slip a chance to realize his ambitions. "I'll resign from the university after my honeymoon trip. It probably shouldn't be long, and I can get involved in early preparations via teleconference."Charlie nodded. "Then, we can have Uncle Kaeden stay on schedule while I'll ask the Wades to send a representative over to sign a memorandum for the investment."Keith smiled and nodded. "You should

Charlie hadn't been born and raised in Aurous Hill, but he still started living here at the age of eight and was more attached to this place than Eastcliff.If he was going to take part in this automotive investment with the Ackers, he naturally found Aurous Hill the ideal location.Not only would it create a huge number of jobs for Aurous Hill, but it would also rake in much economic flow for the region.Yolden also nodded at his suggestion. "If the first plant is meant to cover the demand of the entire local market, there's no reason for a coastal plant. Aurous Hill stands at an intersection between the north and the south, so transportation is convenient. It's also killing two birds with one stone, as Mr. Wade is fond of the city."Charlie couldn't help but agree. "I won't lie—Aurous Hill has been good to me, and I hope to give back. Nothing's better than succeeding in that respect."Yolden spread his hands, "Heavy industries are certainly ideal to contribute to Aurous Hill's e

Yolden had actually been researching new energy for a while—in fact, it was when Tesla's first car models were produced.He was passionate about the subject and had his own opinions as well as ambitions, but he was busy teaching, so he couldn't realize any of it.But was this not a golden opportunity tailor-made for him?Seeing that Yolden was clearly interested, Charlie turned toward Kaeden, "Actually, the professor is getting married soon. There's no way we'd split up newlyweds so soon after the wedding, right? So, is it possible to set up base in Aurous Hill instead?""Not a problem!" Kaeden replied without hesitation. "Our family is planning to return to Oskia anyway, and everyone knows about Ashley and Curtis. So, why don't we invest in this enterprise alongside the Wades and have the base set up in Aurous Hill? And then bring Godot under as a subsidiary?"Turning to Yolden, he continued, "By the way, Godot's plant is already in the province—barely 100 miles from Aurous Hill,

Pausing, Yolden continued, "Moreover, the greatest advantage of AI is that it is self-conscious and has the processing power to analyze astronomical proportions of data. As car sales grow, every car owner's driving data will add precious new data to our data vault, and it will be processed by AI for even greater space of imagination."For example, kst's say I experienced a bumpiness along a certain road, and when the sensors pick up on that anomaly, the data will be uploaded to the servers along with images of the road condition in real time. The processing AI module would determine in no time at all that there was damage and label said location on the map, and then forward the data to other vehicles close to that location, sending notifications when they are close enough and providing the appropriate advice for countermeasures."Naturally, the AI can even be refined further so that it immediately warns us to slow down while uploading the data to the servers and informing any cars cl

Yolden's mind short-circuited at those words. "The most advanced AI module?!"He had been working on Wall Street for years, having invested in substantial startup tech companies as well as assisting plenty of Nasdaq tech enterprises with their IPO. That was why he especially had a sharp six sense for cutting-edge technology.It had been a while since he had gotten up the saddle, and AI had just become the trend recently, but he still paid close attention. He was well aware what applications were possible for AI modules, but he was shocked that Charlie already possessed what all the online giants were coveting!Thrilled, he quickly asked Charlie, "Can the Rothschilds resolve all the hardware and software issues? High-processing power display cards are a dime a dozen these days, and local enterprises are all planning to sell them one by one. The demand is just that high!"Charlie chuckled. "Don't worry—the Rothschilds will handle both issues for me, even the data centers. We bought i

Keith, who had been silent throughout, waved him off as he said solemnly, "Please don't sell yourself short, Professor Hart. I'm sure you can do well in this position, but it's still a matter of will."If your heart is truly set on educating future generations, then I'm sure you'd reject our offer no matter what we say."However, if you felt the slightest interest, even anticipation, for such a major project, then you really should consider our offer."We've already invested in Godot Autos for 3 billion USD and over 10 billion if we're counting in Ricebolt. But we still have 30 billion more in capital available—and that means it's 40 billion USD at play."I doubt any other global car maker can afford that much, let alone a new car maker. So, I dare say that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"Keith's words spoke to Yolden's very soul—a startup capital of forty billion US dollars was certainly unprecedented for electric-powered vehicles. Even Ricebolt had barely garnered ove
