Sayuri froze when she heard what he said.
What Theo didn't know was that Sayuri was the owner of the Fuji Jump Co. She was the adopted daughter of the last owner. And because the inheritance was confidential,
Sam didn't find out that she was the owner.
Sayuri was feeling a bit upset because this company was the baby of her late father and she promised herself to take care of it. But without any good mangas to publish, the company was on the verge of bankruptcy.
'Well, at least he asked politely and showed me respect' she thought while thinking of the last jackass that rudely made an offer for the company.
"I understand that this is a special company with some history. So, I offer to buy only 90% of the shares for a price 300k dollars. And the last 10%, I offer as a token to the owner so that he/she knows that they are still a part of this company" Theo said.
He knew that the current owner preferred declaring bankruptcy to selling so he planned to not buy all the shares and somehow convince the owner to be a shareholder of the company.
Sayuri stopped the refusal she was prepared to say and fell into thought.
'That's a much better offer than the last.' She thought
The last offer was outrageous. They offered only 150k to buy all the shares of the company. And they would fire all the employees and only keep the facilities of the Fuji Co.
'He offered the double for 'only' 90% of the shares' Sayuri was deep in thought as she went through this offer.
"I have a business plan to reform this company. That will revolutionize and make a new and more famous company. And I have a manga here that I am sure will be famous. I assure you that I am serious about making this company successful but without losing its roots." Theo said to ended his arguments.
Sayuri felt emotional as she has been trying to make Fuji Jump Co. successful but her rivals poached her mangakas and she suffered set back after a setback. When she heard that the company could stand up again, she made a decision.
"Mr. Gray to be honest with you, I am the owner of this company and I didn't have any intention of selling but hearing you talk about making the Fuji Jump Co. successful again without losing its roots made me want to believe in you. So, I am going to bet on you." she said while looking at his eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTheo was surprised that she was the owner but that didn't matter as he was happy that she accepted his offer.
"I am sure you won't regret this decision, Sayuri. And please, you can call me Theo." he said with a reassuring smile.
"Happy cooperation" Theo said as he extended his hand.
"Happy cooperation" Sayuri while extending her hand too.
She didn't know yet but that moment would change her whole life as the most famous manga publishing house was born.
They talked about the process of passing over the company. Sayuri said it would take a couple of days.
Theo left the building happily as he would own a publishing house in two days.
Theo went directly to the first coffee shop he bought. He felt that it was a little inappropriate to have his office here.
'I need an office without any attachments to BlueCloud Coffee Shop or the Fuji Jump Co. to oversee the operations of my companies.' He thought.
'I should establish a company to oversee the management of my companies' Theo thought as he entered his office.
He called Sam to his office.
"Sam, I have a few important tasks for you. I was able to acquire 90% of the shares of the Fuji Jump Co. as you know we are expanding and I want to establish a company that in the name is going to oversee the operations of my companies but this is gonna be a shell company. As I am going to establish a company that in the shadows will operate everything. So, your task is opening 2 companies. One shell company and the other a discreet company." Theo explained his plan.
"You are right, boss. I was thinking of this problem while I searched the information of the publishing house. In one week tops I can establish the 2 companies with the government" Sam said.
"What name I register them, Theo?" Sam questioned.
Theo thought about it when suddenly he remembered something.
"Umbrella Corporation for the shell company. And Skynet Corporation for the operating company." Theo said playfully as he thought of the evil corporations of [Resident Evil] and [Terminator] of his past life.
Sam thought the naming choice was peculiar but agreed nonetheless.
"I also want you to rent a floor of a commercial building to be our headquarters. It is inappropriate for us to occupy this store. I imagine the manager of this store doesn't even have room to work. But don't rent nothing too eye-catching." Theo said.
"Finally, boss." Sam exclaimed happily.
She didn't even have room to work anymore in this tiny store.
For the next 2 days, Theo added into his routine drawing the first few chapters of <<Naruto>> to show Sayuri after he officialize the acquirement of the company.
With his Art&Design skill, he leveled up to level 5. He was able to draw the manga to perfection as if he was the original author.
Sam was able to rent an office for them too. It was a 10-store building located in a medium business street. It had all types of companies on the 10 floors. They rented the whole fourth floor. Sam would start the move today as he would go to the Fuji Jump Co. to sign the papers of the purchase.
Theo entered Sayuri's office and saw her childish face.
"Good morning, Sayuri." Theo said to her with a smile.
"Good morning, Theo." she said while looking at this handsome boy that convinced her to sell 90% of her company.
He looked young but at the same time passed a mature look.
They didn't beat around the bush and started going over the documents. Theo and
Sayuri signed it and the paper just needed to be looked over by a lawyer to the purchase be official. Sayuri said in the afternoon the lawyer would deliver him the marked and original contract.
Theo was happy. In the afternoon he would be the major shareholder of this company.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Now that everything is over, I want to show you something to assure you that my promise for you will come true." Theo said to her as he passed the first 5 chapters of Naruto.
Sayuri was curious as to why he was certain of vision. She took the manuscript he passed and started reading.
She was instantly absorbed by the story. And read it for around 30 minutes while Theo went through his phone.
"Theo, this is an excellent manga! Only this manga is capable of selling more than any manga we ever published." Sayuri said excitedly as she stopped reading.
"Oh Sayuri, I believe this manga will change the world." Theo said with eyes that seemed to know about the future.
Sayuri saw his eyes that exuded confidence and became confident too about the future.
For the rest of the morning, Theo visited the facilities of the company building as he looked at the report, Sayuri delivered, about all the workings of the company. As they came back to Sayuri's office, Theo said to her:
"Sayuri, I want you to continue being the Head Manager of the house."
She was surprised. She thought he already had a person for the job, she wasn't very hopeful about being the head manager of the company anymore.
"I would love to." she said excitedly.
So, for the next 2 hours, Theo explained his plan for the company. He said he would send her a detailed plan and that she would have to implement it.
In the afternoon, he was organizing his new office when he was informed that some papers arrived for him. He instantly thought about the purchase documents he signed in the morning. When he got the papers in his hand he heard a sound in his mind.
