The Amazing son in law Chapter 1711
“This one……”
When Hiroshi Tanaka encountered Ito’s predicament, he found himself in a tough spot. How should he respond? Would his answer even come back? And if it didn’t, would he have to face the consequences? Would the answer return at all?
Even Ito Yuhiko would likely flee the moment he heard the question! It was clear that this was a tough nut to crack. Noticing the stubborn silence from Hiroshi, Ito’s heart raced, and he abruptly exclaimed, “You don’t think that 80% of the money will come back, do you?”
Hiroshi Tanaka quickly clarified, “It’s not about being pessimistic. I wouldn’t say that. Right now, it’s a matter of whether I can retrieve it. I’d say it’s a 50-50 chance!”
“50-50?” Ito Yuhiko retorted angrily, “What’s the difference between that and keeping it to yourself?”
In a rush, Hiroshi replied, “Mr. Ito, there are indeed many uncertainties in this situation. I’m not ready to draw any conclusions just yet. But remember, no matter how dire things get, we can still pursue litigation as a solution.”
“Litigation?” Ito pointed an accusing finger at Hiroshi and shouted: “Have you lost your mind? Takahashi Eiji was humiliated by Charlie in broad daylight, and now he’s a joke all over Japan. If I end up suing him for forty-five million, wouldn’t I just become a bigger laughingstock for not getting back a hundred million?!” Check latest chapters at find•novel.net
Feeling embarrassed, Hiroshi explained, “Mr. Ito, we’re talking about 4.5 billion dollars here. Can we really choose to accept that loss just to avoid ridicule? The entire family’s annual net profit doesn’t even reach that amount…”
“True…” Ito replied with a pained expression. “With the recent economic downturn, our overall net profit last year was only a bit over 300 million dollars. If things don’t improve this year, we might even experience a loss.”
For large families or corporations, losses aren’t uncommon.
Take, for example, Zotye Automobile, which reported a staggering loss of over 10 billion dollars in 2019.
Then there’s General Motors, another giant in the automotive sector, which has faced years of losses due to poor management. In its century-long history, GM’s worst year saw a direct loss of 38.7 billion dollars!
The international economic climate has been bleak over the past two years, putting even more pressure on Ito Takehiko.
In such a market, the growth potential for medical and health companies is particularly promising, as people may delay buying cars or houses, but they will always need medications.
Because of this, he decided to invest heavily in Kobayashi Pharmaceutical.
Unfortunately, he found himself in a deep pit.
Now, with 4.5 billion dollars seemingly lost forever, he felt an intense frustration.
Noticing Ito’s deep despondency, Hiroshi quickly tried to reassure him: “My lord, you really don’t need to worry so much right now. We are not like the Takahashi family. They might not even know who Charlie is, while we at least have some insight into him. We know he is the current owner of Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals and that he’s based in Aurous Hill, China. Even if we eventually need to confront him, we’ll be able to locate him. The Takahashi family, on the other hand, may struggle to find him at all.”
“Yes!” Ito Yuhiko suddenly felt a spark of hope and exclaimed, “I want them to search for him! If they can’t track down Charlie, they’ll forever be the laughingstock of Japan! Hahaha, this is delightful!”
With that, Ito Yuhiko sprang to his feet, lit another cigar in excitement, took a puff, and smiled as he said, “Tanaka, on my behalf, send a lavish bouquet and a fruit basket to the Takahashi family. Make sure they know it’s a gesture of sympathy just to irritate them! Hahaha!”
