"It seems that you have done a good job in the past six months, Chairman Yasuda. Harry complimented Eiji Yasuda in his office.

And Li Jie, who was sitting on the sofa next to him, had a stinky face, and he didn't want to deal with Chairman Yasuda.

The inspection mission from New York has completed the inventory of the Toyo Division. All the accounts show how conscientious Chairman Yasuda has been in Harry's succession for more than half a year.

All aspects of the company's sales were significantly higher than during the lifetime of Norman Osborne. In particular, sales of weapons and equipment were due to the merger of sales channels that had previously belonged to Stark Industries.

As a result, in the first quarter of April this year, the company's global profit increased by nearly 25 percent compared to the previous fiscal year.

For a company of Osborne's size, this kind of earnings report is nothing short of a party. So when the first earnings report came out in April, the entire Wall Street stock market was in a frenzy.

Osborne Group's stock continues to break new highs, sending all investors into a frenzy.

In Stark Industries' move to launch a global arms manufacturing industry, Harry, who struck a secret deal with Tony, emerged as the biggest winner.

Because of the merger of Stark Group's sales pipeline, Osborne Group got the biggest piece of cake after Stark Group's delisting.

Of course, because the market left behind by Stark Group's exit is too large for Osborne Group to monopolize. Therefore, there are still many other companies that have followed up and scooped up some vegetable residues behind the Osborne Group.

Among the global branch earnings of the Osborne Group, the Toyo division grew the fastest. That's an almost 35 percent increase year-on-year. The growth rate of the global branch is proud of the company, and it has become the most profitable overseas branch outside of the head office.

In addition to the fact that many more poor Southeast Asian countries have also begun to buy equipment from the Osborne Group, which is somewhat surprising, the entire Toyo branch of the rest of the country is thriving.

The European branch, which has occupied the first overseas position all year round, has been pulled down.

Coupled with the audit of the headquarters, it was confirmed that there were no problems with the accounts of the Toyo Branch, and Harry naturally wanted to show closeness.

Harry shook Yasuda's hand and said to him encouragingly. "In the past six months, you have only managed the Toyo branch in an orderly manner, and even beat the European branch in terms of financial income. ”

"You must know Chairman Yasuda, the audit of the Toyo branch is mandatory. Because the growth of Toyo's profits is somewhat too amazing. Harry said to Chairman Yasuda in a tone of hope that you would understand me.

"I understand your difficulties very well, Mr. Harry, and it is necessary to be on business. You'll also need to account to the board and shareholders. I know that very well. Eiji Yasuda nodded respectfully, without any smugness.

Harry's explanation of why the audit made sense. As the leader of a business empire that has just succeeded to the throne, the most basic acumen is still needed.

Eiji Yasuda may have some contempt for Harry in his heart, but he is not enough to treat Harry as a retarded person.

False financial statements are something that any business manager is afraid of. Don't assume that only a loss will cause a board audit, if a company has a high profit upswing and the growth is much higher than the historical average.

This situation will also attract the attention of the company, especially the board of directors and shareholders. Because it is common for some companies to deceive investors with false good news and trap their money.

Sometimes, in fact, there are losses within the company, and after the company lacks liquidity, many companies will take risks to hide losses in this way and take a sum of money from the market to fill the hole.

If you are lucky, you just lack a working capital, as long as the funds are in place, you can turn a profit. If you are unlucky, the money you get can't fill the hole, and it will only leave the company mired in debt. In the end, the bubble was punctured, the company went bankrupt, and the investors' money was lost.

For the Osborne Group, which has subsidiaries all over the world, the potential level of a branch is often assessed by annual financial reports.

The company's growth potential is reflected through the financial report, and a priority is selected internally. Branches with the highest development potential usually have more resources to incline.

It is also possible to pass various development proposals relatively smoothly. Such resource investment and development proposals often involve billions of dollars, with some larger projects even in the tens of billions of dollars.

So Harry explained the problem of auditing to Eiji Yasuda in this way, and Eiji Yasuda was perfectly able to understand Harry's concerns.

"Thanks to the hard work of all colleagues in the past year, the company's achievements are inseparable from their efforts. "Eiji Yasuda showed the demeanor of a good boss.

Seeing Yasuda's performance, Harry had the idea of scolding his mother in his heart, but he still said with a smile on the surface. "Chairman Yasuda is right. This was due to the extraordinary increase in profit and income of the Toyo Division in the first quarter. Therefore, I decided to encourage all employees of the Toyo branch to be paid an additional three months at the end of April. ”

Harry said very generously. "Especially Chairman Yasuda, you and several of your right-hand men. Including several leaders of the legal department and the import and export department, each of them will be rewarded with half a year's salary. ”

"Thank you very much, these are what we should do. You're so generous that you are a little ashamed. "Eiji Yasuda has a lot of drama, and he shows sincerity and fear, just like a good employee who has worked hard for this company.

Harry smiled to show his generosity, but Li Jie could express his inner thoughts without any scruples, and it was enough to put on a stinky face that could freeze people to death.

When Eiji Yasuda exited the office, he inadvertently glanced at Li Jie, although only for a moment. But his eyes were full of contempt, and looking at Li Jie was like looking at a corpse.

Although Li Jie didn't say anything today, his face had already caused serious displeasure to Eiji Yasuda.

"My face was about to freeze. It wasn't until Eiji Yasuda had left completely that Harry lowered his face. "Do I have to do this?"

"I think you're doing a good job, it's really good to have a girlfriend on Broadway, and your acting skills are good. I don't even see a flaw. Li Jie gave Harry a thumbs up.

"Let's let Eiji Yasuda take some precautions first. Only when he relaxes will we have a chance to do it. ”

Routines and anti-routines, acting skills against acting skills. Two young hunters have to deal with a cunning old fox, the characters are already on the stage, and the big drama is about to begin.
