Upon hearing this, Mark knew that Gao Ren, after acquiring the machine tool companies, had set his sights on these other companies.

After a moment of silence, he picked up the satellite phone and called William on the other side of the ocean.

"Mr. William, it's me, Mark!"

Looking exhausted, William heard Mark's voice and, while rubbing the bridge of his nose to relax, said...

"Any progress?"

Mark sensed the fatigue in William's voice, and then pieced together the information he had just received into a single piece of good news.

Just as Mark had predicted,

Having been tormented by Crow and his two former allies, George and Eli, he was somewhat mentally exhausted during this period.

Upon hearing this good news, his previously tired eyes instantly lit up with excitement.

"Is the news reliable?"

"Mr. William, he's very reliable!"

"You know what kind of person Gao Ren is. He's definitely not the kind of person who would pretend nothing happened if his life was threatened!"

Upon hearing the certainty in Mark's tone, William burst into laughter.

What do you want me to do?

"Isn't Gao Ren's next goal to companies in chip manufacturing, car manufacturing, and shipbuilding?"

"Then Mr. William, please help him out of the manor..."

Why would George and his group, who were once William's supporters, suddenly turn against him?

It's precisely because they fear William's influence in Japan and the shares he holds in Japanese companies that they're worried about in the upcoming Plaza Accord.

They received more benefits than those in the military.

If it weren't for this incident, would George and his group have been so bored as to suppress William?

"I will take care of it."

"Just be ready!"

"yes."

William hung up the phone, his smile deepening.

"Gao Ren, even if I can't kill you outright this time, I'll make you bleed profusely..."

The thought that he could both vent his anger by getting revenge on Gao Ren and also demonstrate his stance to George and the others by diluting his own shares...

The worry that had been on his face for some time completely disappeared.
