~7 min read 1,303 words

At this moment, although Nakamura Chitian still wore a smile and his face still appeared humble, that somewhat arrogant demeanor was revealed beyond a doubt.

Wuhe Group!

I believe Zhang Ran has certainly heard of this famous name.

And I believe Zhang Ran also knows the power of the Wuhe Group.

In Nakamura Chitian's mind, the Wuhe Group absolutely had the ability to crush that small game company of the Zhang Family.

Moreover, there was no need to take action personally; it would suffice to just let a little word slip out.

It is not as if there are only one or two companies in the Huaxia gaming industry that want to cooperate with the game company under their Wuhe Group.

When the time comes, these people will help them achieve their goal.

And although it is said that Nakamura Senkawa's father is not valued within the family, he is, after all, the clan leader's own son, so he still has that bit of face; after all, it does not involve the company's power struggles.

Nakamura Senkawa stopped talking at this time; he felt that this family of Zhang Xiaotao was somewhat unappreciative.

He had already offered such good terms, and his attitude was so humble, yet they refused him again and again—did they really think he was a person with a good temper?

Zhang Ran smiled, looking at Nakamura Senkawa's youthful face, yet his eyes revealed a maturity beyond his years.

Nakamura Senkawa felt somewhat uncomfortable being watched by Zhang Ran; he always felt that Zhang Ran's gaze was a bit strange.

"Not bad, but it's just a pity," Zhang Ran said, out of the blue.

Nakamura Senkawa frowned and said, "Grandpa Zhang, I am sincerely asking to purchase the copyright for Calabash Brothers, please grant my request!"

Saying this, Nakamura Senkawa bowed once more.

This copyright involved his future plans; in Nakamura Senkawa's vision for the future, he was to return to the family after this study tour in Huaxia.

And because of his age, he certainly could not do much here, so he needed to establish his reputation as a genius in advance.

Although he was a genius himself, not many people knew it, and not many people paid attention to him.

Therefore, he needed fame, fame that could bring benefits to the family.

He planned to first establish his fame in the manga industry, then hype himself up, and then use the resources of his family's manga company to promote himself completely.

Nakamura Senkawa also had a next step in his plan, which was to rely on this fame to expand the market for his family's manga and anime companies.

And Calabash Brothers was a relatively key part of that.

Nakamura Senkawa had already started looking before, but he just hadn't expected to encounter such a suitable story here.

It also fit his persona very well.

Therefore, he needed the copyright to the Calabash Brothers story.

As long as his plan succeeded, the family would certainly value him, and he would also obtain more resources.

Moreover, doing this had another benefit: he would not have to worry about being suppressed or shelved by other elders in the family.

By then, the whole country would know his fame, and the family elders would have no way to suppress him.

It must be said that Nakamura Senkawa's thinking was very good and very realistic; every step was planned out. At this age, it was truly very rare, with so many schemes hidden in such a small mind.

Zhang Ran looked at the two little ones who were somewhat oblivious; his own children were still the cutest. "Susu, Taotao, go see if Mom has finished cooking yet?"

"Oh, oh." The two little ones had long since not wanted to play with Nakamura Senkawa, and upon hearing this, they immediately ran off.

Only then did Zhang Ran look at Nakamura Senkawa and say, "What if I don't grant your request?"

Nakamura Senkawa took a deep breath and said, "Grandpa Zhang, I don't want to do this; can't we just cooperate nicely?"

The threat implied in these words could not be more obvious; Nakamura Senkawa had long since gained experience in leveraging influence.

In the past, he had also used his family's affairs to accomplish many things, and he felt nothing about it at all.

The smile on Zhang Ran's face became even brighter. "I really don't want to cooperate nicely with you."

Nakamura Senkawa's small face immediately turned cold. "Grandpa Zhang, you have a saying in Huaxia: if you refuse a toast, you will be forced to drink a forfeit."

This was the first time Zhang Ran had been threatened by a child, and with such a serious demeanor at that.

"Alright, I would like to see how your 'forfeit' is, and how the Nakamura Family makes me drink it." Zhang Ran still wore a smile on his face.

"Grandpa Zhang, then we will take our leave." Nakamura Senkawa actually bowed respectfully before leaving, which made Zhang Ran feel a bit disgusted.

Nakamura Chitian stood up while saying, "Mr. Zhang, we don't want it to end up like this, you..."

"Is it your place to speak?" Zhang Ran's tone suddenly turned indifferent.

Looking at Zhang Ran's cold gaze, Nakamura Chitian did not know why, but he suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

Opening his mouth, Nakamura Chitian did not continue speaking and just followed behind Nakamura Senkawa to leave.

Just at this moment, Zhang Ran spoke again, "Is that guy Nakamura Daho dead yet?"

Zhang Ran did not pay much attention to the Wuhe Group, but he guessed he should be dead; after all, if he weren't dead, he would be nearly a hundred years old by now.

Nakamura Senkawa turned around abruptly, his small face icy. "Grandpa Zhang, please watch your tongue."

"It seems he is already dead. Tsk tsk, if I had known, I would have bought some firecrackers to set off in celebration," Zhang Ran said with a chuckle.

But soon, Zhang Ran's face held no more smiles when facing Nakamura Senkawa. "Are you teaching me how to speak? I see you are young and couldn't be bothered to lower myself to your level, but it seems I really gave you too much face. Little one, go ask Nakamura Daho if he dares to speak to me like that."

Once these words were out, both Nakamura Chitian and Nakamura Senkawa were stunned. At first, they hadn't thought much of it, but now that Zhang Ran said this, it was clear he knew Nakamura Daho.

"Grandpa Zhang, you know my great-grandfather?" Nakamura Senkawa said, taking a deep breath.

Zhang Ran said coldly, "Don't call me Grandpa Zhang; I find it disgusting and uncomfortable. At such a young age, your mind is truly vicious."

"Get lost. Have your family's current clan leader call me. I see the Nakamura Family has forgotten the lessons of the past; even a child dares to come and threaten me, heh." Zhang Ran's tone became increasingly cold.

Nakamura Senkawa suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart. Zhang Ran had no need to lie at this time; after all, he would know with a little inquiry, and he, as a member of the Nakamura Family, was not a fake.

So, did Zhang Ran really know his great-grandfather?

And he seemed to have a look of disdain?

Judging by the meaning of Zhang Ran's words, had their Nakamura Family suffered a loss at his hands before?

Nakamura Chitian's heart trembled even more. He thought of more; he knew that the Nakamura Family had indeed suffered a great loss thirty years ago, nearly suffering a blow to their vitality, and even so, it took nearly ten years to recover. Could it be this person in front of them?
