Chapter 844

"Never return money?!"

When Ito Yuhiko heard this, his slicked-back hair was almost about to explode with anger.

He clutched his chest, pointed at Ye Chen, and scolded: "Ye, you keep saying you want to follow the law. Is this how you follow it? I transferred 4.5 billion USD to Kobayashi Pharmaceutical's account. Either you give me the shares, or if you don't give me the shares, return my money. Do you still want to keep my money and not give it to me?"

Ye Chen nodded and said with a blank expression: "Yes! I just want to keep your money. Once the money enters my pocket, everything is up to me. You ask me to take it out and return it to you, and I have to take it out and return it to you? Don't I, Ye Chen, need face?"

"You... you..."

Ito Yuhiko felt a sharp pain in his heart.

He had really never seen such a thick-skinned and shameless person in his life.

Thus, he scolded through gritted teeth: "I don't believe it. A huge sum of 4.5 billion USD—do you think you can swallow it?"

Ye Chen nodded and smiled: "Haven't I already swallowed it? And you were the one who took the initiative to feed it to me."

Ito Yuhiko almost vomited blood.

At this time, Ye Chen said to Chen Zekai: "Old Chen, invite this Mr. Ito out."

Chen Zekai nodded, immediately walked to Ito Yuhiko with several subordinates, and said indifferently: "Mr. Ito, you'd better invite yourself out. Don't force me to use methods, otherwise, if you end up being carried out later, you won't be able to crawl up for three to five months."

"You... you dare to threaten me?!"

Chen Zekai said with a smile: "I'm okay, just threatening you a bit. Master Ye Chen has always had a bad temper. If you don't get out, he might beat you."

Ito Yuhiko gritted his teeth tightly, feeling angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to resist here. He could only endure his anger and said coldly: "Fine! Very good! Ye, I'll see who has the ability to take away my 4.5 billion USD! This matter isn't over between you and me!"

After finishing, Ito Yuhiko walked out of the conference room with his hands behind his back and a dark face.

Ye Chen looked at his back and gave a faint smile.

He had heard that Ito Yuhiko had always wanted to invest in Kobayashi Pharmaceutical, which was why he wanted to marry his daughter Ito Nanako to Jiro Kobayashi.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen felt somewhat unhappy.

Ito Nanako was beautiful and moving, gentle as water, and was definitely a standard Yamato Nadeshiko. Marrying her to Jiro Kobayashi? Ito Yuhiko must have been blind.

In his view, Ito Yuhiko wasn't much different from his mother-in-law, Ma Lan—both were people who would rather sacrifice their daughter's happiness to seek benefits for themselves.

Therefore, he naturally didn't have a good impression of Ito Yuhiko. Giving him a bit of bitterness to taste regarding this 4.5 billion USD matter wasn't bad at all.

Tanaka Koichi came to Ye Chen at this time and said respectfully: "Mr. Ye, I'm really sorry about this. I didn't expect you to be the major shareholder of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical now. If there was anything improper today, please forgive me..."

As someone who had witnessed Ye Chen's strength, Tanaka Koichi had full awe for Ye Chen.

Crippling Yamamoto Kazuki with one palm and making Ito Yuhiko's personal bodyguards lose their combat effectiveness with a wave of his hand—such a person was already powerful to the point of being unbelievable in Tanaka Koichi's eyes.

Therefore, even if they were in Japan now and even if the Ito family had full influence in Japan, Tanaka Koichi still felt that the Ito family had better not provoke Ye Chen. Otherwise, no one knew what kind of end was waiting for the entire Ito family.

Seeing that Tanaka Koichi was quite sensible, Ye Chen's expression eased a bit and he said: "Tanaka, leave me your contact information. I might have something to ask of you in the future."

Tanaka Koichi immediately took out a business card and handed it to Ye Chen respectfully: "Mr. Ye, this is my business card. Please do me the honor of accepting it."

Ye Chen nodded, took the business card from his hand, and put it in his pocket casually.

Tanaka Koichi bowed slightly to Ye Chen and said: "Mr. Ye, then I will take my leave."

After finishing, he walked out of the conference room.

Ito Yuhiko's two personal bodyguards could only flee in a panic, clutching their broken arms like the "Broken-Armed Hero."

In the conference room, it fell into a dead silence again.

Everyone looked at Ye Chen and Ichiro Kobayashi uneasily, completely unaware of what kind of fate was waiting for them next.

Ichiro Kobayashi cleared his throat at this time and said: "I tell you, as the legal heir to Kobayashi Pharmaceutical, I have 100% decision-making power over Kobayashi Pharmaceutical. The share transfer agreement I signed also has 100% legal effect. So now Kobayashi Pharmaceutical has already become a subsidiary of Nine Mysteries Pharmaceuticals. If you still want to earn a living here!"

At this time, someone questioned: "The old president gave us family executives 30% of the dry shares before. Now that you've given 90% of the shares to someone else, what will guarantee our interests?!"

Ichiro Kobayashi said coldly: "In the future, you will be able to get 3% of the returns from the 10% of shares I have. I can guarantee you this!"

"30% becomes 3%?!"

Someone questioned indignantly: "Shrinking so much, how are we supposed to earn a living?!"

"Yeah! Isn't this taking our lives?!"

"That's right! If this continues, we will starve to death sooner or later!"

Ichiro Kobayashi didn't expect that after beating Kobayashi Masayoshi, there would still be so many people going against him.

He couldn't help but think to himself: "This matter is indeed tricky. I sacrificed 90% to Ye Chen because I was forced to. I had to use these 90% of shares to exchange for freedom, otherwise, I don't know how long I would have been under house arrest in that dog kennel. But it's impossible for these people to be willing to sacrifice 90% of their own interests..."

Ye Chen said coldly at this time: "If you can't accept Ichiro Kobayashi's proposal, then go to the human resources department to handle your resignation procedures immediately."

"Let us resign?" Someone gave a cold laugh: "The R&D, production, promotion, and sales of the entire Kobayashi Pharmaceutical are all done by us. If we resign, Kobayashi Pharmaceutical will immediately fall into paralysis! All the production bases across the country will fall into chaos. By then, just wait for bankruptcy!"

Ye Chen smiled and asked him: "My friend, what are you responsible for at Kobayashi Pharmaceutical?"

That person said arrogantly: "I am responsible for R&D! I am the general person in charge of the R&D department! Kobayashi Stomach Powder was developed by me and Mr. Jiro Kobayashi together! If it weren't for me, the R&D of the entire Kobayashi Pharmaceutical would stop!"

Someone echoed: "Yeah! If Kobayashi Shinchuan leaves Kobayashi Pharmaceutical, then the entire Kobayashi Pharmaceutical will completely lose its innovation ability!"

Ye Chen nodded and said with a smile: "Oh, that's great. I was thinking on the way here that after merging Kobayashi Pharmaceutical, I must carry out a major reform of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical. The first department to be cut is the R&D department! Because in my eyes, Kobayashi Pharmaceutical's R&D department is worthless—it's just garbage!"

Kobayashi Shinchuan shouted angrily: "I am a postdoctoral fellow in biopharmaceuticals from the University of Tokyo and one of the top pharmaceutical experts in Japan. The department I lead is the strongest in strength among Japanese pharmaceutical companies. How dare you call me garbage?!"

Ye Chen said with disdain: "The Kobayashi Stomach Powder you developed has at least 80% of its prescription plagiarized from ancient Chinese Hanfang, and only the remaining 20% is a little bit of your own improvement. It's clearly plagiarism, yet you say it's your own R&D. Calling you garbage is an insult to the word 'garbage'!"
