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
At this moment, Masayoshi’s heart was filled with disapproval and dissatisfaction.It was not easy for him to get to become the acting chairman. And, just when he was about to take charge of the entire Kobayashi Pharma, he was woken up from his sweet dream by the harshness of reality!Hence, he gritted his teeth in dismay and said, “Kobayashi Ichiro! You haven’t been cleared of all charges regarding the death of your father! Even if Jiro had recorded that video, it doesn’t prove that he was the killer! It is possible that you kidnapped him and forced him to say that in the video!”Then, he turned to the crowd and urged, intending to fan the flames, “Am I right, gentlemen?”The crowd nodded in agreement.Seeing that he had the support from the crowd, Masayoshi donned a smug smile on his face and said, “We must hand over this matter to the police for investigation. When the police say that you are cleared of all charges, that’s when we will hand over the ownership of this company to
Charlie sneered then asked, “Are you, Ito? Let me ask you, what’s the position of Kobayashi Masayoshi in this company? Does he have the right to sign this proposal?”Yahiko snorted then said, “He is the proxy for Kobayashi Pharma, so for sure he has the right to sign the financing agreement!”Charlie said in despise, “Stop talking nonsense; who granted him the title? Or he’s the one who called himself a proxy? What’s the point? The total shares for Kobayashi Pharma all belong to Kobayashi Masao, and since Kobayashi Masao has passed away, those shares belonged to Kobayashi Ichiro and Kobayashi Jiro. Now that Kobayashi Jiro is missing, the shares eventually belonged to Kobayashi Ichiro. Who is Kobayashi Masayoshi to make decisions on behalf of Kobayashi Ichi by selling 30% of those shares to you?”Yahiko picked up the signed contract in anger and said furiously, “See for yourself, everything was written in black and white on this contract. My family had owned 30% of shareholdings in Koba
“No refund at all cost?!!”Upon hearing this statement, Yahiko was extremely angered, and his shiny head felt like it would explode soon.He clutched his chest in distress, then pointed at Charlie and shouted, “You said everything must abide by the law. I’ve transferred forty-five billion dollars into Kobayashi Pharma’s account, so by right, you should either transfer the shares to me or refund me. How dare you withhold my money and not return it to me?!” Charlie nodded, then replied calmly. “You’re right. I’m withholding for your money. The money has been credited into my pocket; thus, I have a say. Where should I hide if I were to refund the money right upon your command?”“You…You….”Yahiko felt a sharp stab in his chest.Never in his life had he seen someone as shameless as Charlie.He then spat, “I don’t believe you. With a large sum like forty-five billion dollars, do you really think you can swallow that easily?”Charlie nodded, continued smiling, and answered, “Haven
Charlie perceived Tanaka as a clever and observant individual. With his expressions relaxed, Charlie said, “Tanaka, do give me your contact number so I can reach you if there’s anything.”Without hesitation, Tanaka drew out his name card and passed it to Charlie respectfully.“Mr. Wade, this is my name card.”Charlie nodded, took the card, and slipped it inside his pocket effortlessly.He bowed to Charlie. “Mr. Wade, please excuse me,” he said, before walking out of the meeting room.Yahiko’s two bodyguards were like warriors with broken arms, clutching their twisted limbs and running amok.The meeting room fell into dead silence.Everyone felt nervous as they looked at Charlie and Ichiro, not knowing what kind of fate awaited them.Ichiro cleared his throat then spoke, “Let me tell you, I, as the legal heir of Kobayashi Pharma, hold the absolute right for this company. As such, the signed share transfer agreement is also valid. From this moment on, Kobayashi Pharma is a wholly
Objectively speaking, Japan, as an advanced country, has many developed and prosperous sectors.Nevertheless, other than Western medicine, almost the rest of the remaining lines were copied from Oskian medicine.Kobayashi Pharma, Ottasan Pharma, and Dapeng Pharma were typical corporations that copied prescriptions from Oskian medicine and ancient Oskian medicine.Dapeng Pharma, for instance, had once launched a so-called Oskian medicated slimming granule, which had its name attributed to a genius ancient Oskian doctor, Quinton Burns.From this, one could see that Japanese pharmaceutical companies did not really contribute much to Oskian prescriptions, and the majority of them either stole or blatantly plagiarized them.That was the main reason Charlie could simply disregard the R&D department without hesitation.Who needs the prescription developed by Kobayashi Pharma’s R&D department when the magical prescriptions were written in the Apocalyptic Book were far superior to theirs?
Makawa grew extremely anxious at the thought. He immediately cried and pleaded.“Mr. Wade, with all due respect, I am considered a talented individual in the biopharmaceutical industry. If you fire me, it will be a great loss to you. I’m begging you; please let me stay on. I will work as hard as I can for you!”Charlie calmly replied, “So now you’re begging. I’m afraid it’s too late. You must settle the resignation procedures by today. Otherwise, the company will end our contract with you by force.”After that, Charlie looked at Isaac and snapped, “Get him out of here.”Isaac nodded and immediately stepped forward. He held Makawa’s collar like grabbing a chicken’s neck and tugged him out.The commotion caused everyone in the meeting room to finally notice how serious the situation had become.Charlie had already received the shares transferred from Ichiro. He was the new boss for Kobayashi Pharma. As such, he was in control of everyone’s life and death.Whoever offended him woul
Yahiko sat in his car and cursed non-stop.It was his first time being humiliated like this.As Ito family’s leader, how could he be humiliated by a young Oskian lad? Not forgetting how his bodyguards had also been defeated by Charlie. The same Charlie even denied the forty-five billion USD refund credited into Kobayashi Pharma?That was forty-five billion dollars on the table!Equivalent to three-hundred-billion RMB, it was a significant sum to anyone, and even the filthy-rich would find it unacceptable to lose so much money without a valid reason.As such, Ito gritted his teeth and cursed, “I swear I am not worthy as a man, should I fail to get revenge this time! Not only do I want to get back all my money, but also I want this lad to die in Japan!”Tanaka, who stood beside, hurriedly replied, “Chairman, Mr. Wade is compelling. Please carefully reconsider and be prudent about finding any fault with him!”“Nonsense!” Yahiko raised his hand and slapped Tanaka. That slap on h
The wealth of the Rothschild family had long been beyond the estimation or calculation of outsiders. Over the years, they had made both visible and hidden investments in countless fields. All offshore companies registered in the Cayman Islands and the British Virgin Islands, as long as they remained unlisted, were not required to disclose shareholder information. Among them were numerous companies in which the Rothschild family held shares or even controls. The true value of these holdings was impossible to verify. Even for listed companies, shareholder information was only disclosed in the primary market. The secondary market was bought and held through various channels that were impossible to count. In addition, the Rothschild family had investments in real estate, energy, mining, transportation, and other areas around the world. It could be said that any industry that was at the forefront of the trend could make enormous wealth. In colonial times, Britain was known as the em
Since both Harrison and Helena had reached an agreement, Helena took out a pen and amended the details of the contract. The whole process was recorded, and coupled with Helena's identity as the Nordic Queen and the high traffic on the internet, she was not at all worried that Harrison would go back on his word. After the two sides agreed on the terms of the contract, Harrison wrote his name on the contract, and then the two sides exchanged agreements, and the contract was officially in effect. After everything was settled, Helena put the contract away, turned off the video recording on her phone, and beamed, "It's been a pleasure working together, Mr. Rothschild!" Harrison hastily asked, "Y-Your Majesty, can you please give me the pill now?" "Of course." Helena handed him the pill swiftly and said, "Even though my family doesn't have a lot of money, we always attach great importance to the spirit of the contract." Harrison stretched out his trembling hand and took the pill.
Helena said, "Mr. Harrison, your family is involved in almost all of the institutions that are major shareholders of Nvidia, and you also hold a lot of floating shares in the secondary market. You got these shares very early, and the chips were very low. As Nvidia's stock price has gone up to over 1 trillion, you have made a lot of money." Harrison had just breathed a sigh of relief when he received a concession of 10 billion, so when Helena started to talk about his past, he quickly explained, "Business is business... Whatever we earn from Nvidia shouldn't be mixed with this matter, w-w-wouldn't you agree, Your Majesty?" "Agreed." Helena nodded. "However, since I'm granting you a hundred billion in hardware costs, this absolutely ties back to Nvidia. You'll ultimately need to procure the AI model hardware through them, and as a shareholder, any bulk orders from Nvidia will effectively be you moving money from one hand to the other." "First, even if the listed cost is a hundred b
Helena was not afflicted by Harrison's annoyance. She said lightly, "Calm down, Mr. Harrison. I haven't finished." After a short pause, she continued, "I want your model for my own use, not for any commercial use, which means it will have no impact on your original market. I just want a completely identical replica for my own use. For you, it's nothing more than giving me a copy, a set of hardware, and twenty years of maintenance fee. That shouldn't cost much, right?" "H-How can I be sure that y-you won't use it for commercial purposes?" Helena smiled and said, "That's the specific detail I'll talk about next. You will still pay me 100 billion dollars, but I will sign a contract with you stating that 50 billion dollars of that will be returned to you at the rate of 2.5 billion dollars per year for the next 20 years. "If you stop upgrading and maintaining the model, I will stop the subsequent return of the money." "If I use your AI model for commercial purposes, you can immedi
Helena added, "In fact, Mr. Rothschild, if you were willing to sacrifice yourself for the family's sake, you could save this money and allow it to contribute to the future development of the family. Who knows—perhaps your descendants would even build a monument in your honor." Feeling a sharp pain in his abdomen, Harrison covered his stomach and waved her off. "Alright, t-that's enough. Since it's a deal, y-you name your price, a-and I can negotiate, so let me give you... a one-and-done price." With that, he held up five fingers, resolutely declaring, "50 billion dollars! Not a penny more! Any more, and even if I regain my health, I'll feel miserable. Just thinking about spending hundreds of billions on a single pill might ruin my happiness in old age." The thought of spending hundreds of billions of dollars on a single pill genuinely pained Harrison. Some people, even without money, still acted generous. But some, when they had wealth, became increasingly stingy. Some believ
Harrison initially thought that 100 million dollars was already an astronomical figure and that offering this amount would sufficiently demonstrate his sincerity. However, he never expected that Helena, upon hearing this offer, couldn't even be bothered to negotiate and would turn to leave. He had just felt the tangible effects of the medicine. If one-tenth had such an impact, taking a whole pill would undoubtedly restore him to his former self. He couldn't afford to miss this rare opportunity. So, he quickly called out, "Your Majesty! Whatever the matter is, we can discuss it, b-but why are you leaving?" Helena explained lightly, "I have never liked to negotiate partnerships with ignorant people. If you believe your health is worth only 100 million dollars, then, frankly, what is there left for me to discuss with you? Although I may not have as much money as you, in my view, my health is certainly worth more than that amount." Harrison was rendered speechless. He hadn't ex
Helena didn't give Harrison a chance to resist. She pinched his cheeks on both sides, forcing his mouth to open. Then, she poured the water containing the dissolved Healing Pill directly into his mouth. Harrison was so scared that the blood drained from his face. He wanted to kick and struggle, but he was trembling profusely and couldn't do anything. The thought of Helena trying to poison him gave him a chill to the marrow. He wanted to spit out the water, but Helena didn't give him a chance. While the water was still in his mouth, she threw the glass aside with her other hand, grabbed his chin, and lifted it up, snarling, "Drink it!" The moment Harrison's chin was lifted, his esophagus directly opened. The water, which was not much, went straight down his esophagus into his stomach, and he literally drank it. Harrison's eyes were full of fear at this moment. He thought that he might not even have time to say goodbye before he died. The next second, when he felt a different k
Harrison scoffed when he heard Helena's suggestion. He snapped angrily, "I-I-I have the best medical team in the world, and t-they don't even dare say such a thing. W-Who do you think you are?!" Helena smirked and replied, "Your team can't cure you, but I can." With that, she took out the Healing Pill that Charlie had given her from her purse and said to Harrison, "This pill comes from the ancient and mysterious East. Once you take it, you'll be restored to your former self. To alleviate your concerns, I can let you take one-tenth of it for free before we discuss terms so that you can truly feel its effectiveness. After that, we can discuss the pricing." Harrison, without any hesitation, disdainfully replied, "I-I would never b-b-believe in such a r-ridiculous pill! T-T-This b-bullshit has no scientific ba-a-asis at all!" Helena sneered contemptuously, "If you believe in science so much, why are you afraid of the Qing Eliminating Society? Can they possibly be a match for your
Helena pursed her lips, looked at Harrison, and then looked at Julien, pretending to be hesitant to speak. Despite his paralyzed body, Harrison was still as sly and smart as ever, so he looked at Julien and said, "Julien, clear the room. I want to talk to Her Majesty alone." Knowing that Harrison was trying to give him a boost, Julien immediately said, "Okay, Dad!" After that, he quickly asked the doctor to leave. Before leaving, he turned and said to Harrison, "Dad, you have all the time in the world. Please have a nice chat with Her Majesty. I'll ask everyone to keep a distance of 20 meters from the room. Please rest assured." Harrison nodded in satisfaction and flicked in the air at him twice, motioning for him to leave. Julien gleefully closed the door and promptly urged everyone to stay 20 meters away from the room, including himself. Seeing that the room was clear, Helena cut to the chase. As she looked at Harrison on the bed, she stated, "Mr. Harrison, the main reaso
