“Yeah, yeah, I don’t care about those. I better get my end of the deal after I finish a few more missions.”Although Adam didn’t care about it, he still had to act as if he cared about it so that the military wouldn’t be suspicious that he had other motives for helping them.When Trevor heard Adam’s words, he nodded his head, “I will tell that to my higher-ups.”Receiving Trevor’s reply, Adam knew that Trevor was only a sergeant and he didn’t have much power in the military compared to those generals. Trevor was only doing his job so Adam didn’t blame him for it.“Are there any missions or not?”Knowing that the missions of the military had a high chance of triggering a talent achievement task, Adam asked Trevor about it out of curiosity.In response, he saw Trevor shook his head and answered, “As for now, there aren’t any missions related to the Ultimate Humans or the UH Foundation.”After receiving Trevor’s response, Adam didn’t bother about it anymore and left the military camp but
When Adam heard the report from his subordinate, he became curious about why Zeria had held a shareholders' meeting.“Did you inquire about the reason for the shareholders meeting held by the chairman of Zeria?”Adam was so busy dealing with the military and the UH Foundation that he barely had any time to even hold a public conference and announce his ownership of the second-biggest share in Zeria.After all, Adam was the second biggest shareholder of Zeria and he still had yet to officially announce his ownership of the second biggest shares. Although it was already transferred under his name, Zeria was a public conglomerate after all and they would hold a press conference whenever a new shareholder took place.It was for the sake of credibility and fanfare. Zeria made themselves known to the public because of that.So, Adam was already contacted by the chairman of Zeria regarding his upcoming press conference long before and Adam had put that on hold due to how busy he was. It was
“Boss, I apologize. The chairman of Zeria didn’t say anything about the reason for the shareholders' meeting. The chairman only said that attendance is obligatory.”Hearing that even his subordinate didn’t know anything about it, Adam could only sigh and wish that the reason wasn’t about himself. Otherwise, he would be forced to use his justice fist to control the chairman of Zeria so that he could take over Zeria.After all, he needed Zeria’s backing if he wanted to have the background to go against the military and government as well as support his father-in-law.Knowing that his subordinate couldn’t offer any more useful information, Adam only sighed and said, “Just keep an eye out for any suspicious actions in Zeria. Report to me if there is. Also, when will the shareholders’ meeting be held?”Hearing his boss’ question, Adam’s subordinate replied, “It will be held tomorrow at one in the afternoon. The meeting’s location will be in Zeria’s main headquarters on the top floor.”Afte
Spending his time in his underground laboratory, Adam barely had any breakthroughs in his research for the recipe for the beautification pill. However, it had only been several hours since he started and he knew that such a difficult task couldn’t be completed in just a day.But since it was already his bedtime and he had to deal with the shareholders’ meeting in Zeria tomorrow, Adam decided to end his research and continue after he was free. Anyway, he wasn’t desperate to create the beautification pill and he had plenty of time to create it.With that in mind, Adam went to his room and slept.When several hours had passed and it was already morning, Adam woke up on his bed and did his daily morning routine. Having remembered his crucial attendance at the shareholders’ meeting as it might possibly decide his future in Zeria, Adam immediately dressed up for the occasion as he wore a business suit.After finishing his preparations, Adam who didn’t want his suit to be dirtied immediately
Adam saw some middle-aged men and even old men come out of their luxury cars. But the one that attracted his attention the most was a young kid who seemed to be a ten-year-old.But even that kid was accompanied by a neatly dressed butler as well as several bodyguards.‘That kid must be the son of a big shot. Or he is probably one of the shareholders in Zeria and his shares must have been inherited from his father or grandfather.’When Adam thought of that, he didn’t care much since he was confident that all of them were human and he could easily kill them with just a bullet.He could even deal with hundreds of well-trained and well-armed bodyguards let alone just a bunch of them. His background and money might not be the greatest, but Adam was very confident in his combat skills so he didn’t have anything to worry about.He could even defeat Ultimate Humans who were said to be the pinnacle of human limit let alone normal humans like them.With that confidence in mind, Adam entered the
When the pair of old men and a young woman entered the meeting room, Adam noticed that the rest of the members in the meeting room seemed to have become more serious.‘Judging from the expressions of those shareholders, that old man should be the biggest shareholder in Zeria, aka the chairman of Zeria.’‘As for that woman, she is either the chairman’s secretary or she a relative of that old man?’When Adam thought of the latter, he felt that he seemed to have guessed the reason for holding the shareholders’ meeting.Of course, that was assuming the shareholders’ meeting wasn’t held to reprimand him for his absence from the conglomerate.The old man sat on the chair while the young woman stood behind him at the side.From the sitting position, Adam was sitting near the old man and the young kid from before. Their sitting position was nearest to each other as they both held the highest shares in Zeria compared to the rest of the shareholders.The old man has white hair due to old age as
After saying his introduction, the chairman spoke again, “I am already getting old. Someone needed to inherit Zeria before I die so I have decided that my granddaughter will inherit the chairman position for Zeria.”“Do any of you disagree or not?”Although the chairman possessed 51% shares of the conglomerate and had voting rights in his shares, there were still some restrictions imposed on him as the majority shareholder.At least, his decision could be waived if at least 45% of the voting shares were used to go against his opinion. However, that restriction would only work on crucial decisions that would change the company as a whole and such a situation was one right now.After all, the change of chairman in the company would mean that the company would change as a whole. If the chairman that had inherited the former chairman’s shares was an incompetent person, then the value of the company would lower and the company would be ruined in that person’s hands.As if everyone had come
Unlike most conglomerates in Japan and Korea which were called Zaibutsus and Chaebols respectively, the conglomerates in America were mostly public conglomerates.At least, the Zeria was such a public conglomerate and because of that, it wasn’t expected for the chairman to hoard the position for his family.Well, the shareholders wouldn’t mind it if it's someone from the chairman’s family line again if the successor was competent such as what happened in the Savannah Conglomerate.The shareholders such as the fourth shareholder knew of the notoriety of the granddaughter of the chairman. Surprisingly, in the family line of the chairman, only the chairman was excellent at business yet even the chairman’s sons and daughters weren’t suited to become chairman.The fact that the chairman chose her granddaughter meant that she was the best option he had yet that granddaughter of his was barely capable of leading Zeria.At least, they knew that if the granddaughter of the chairman became the
