Chapter 17 Buying A Publishing Company

    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 thest owner. And because the inheritance was confidential,


    Sam didn''t find out that she was the owner.


    Sayuri was feeling a bit upset because thispany was the baby of herte father and she promised herself to take care of it. But without any good mangas to publish, thepany was on the verge of bankruptcy.


    ''Well, at least he asked politely and showed me respect'' she thought while thinking of thest jackass that rudely made an offer for thepany.


    "I understand that this is a specialpany with some history. So, I offer to buy only 90% of the shares for a price 300k dors. And thest 10%, I offer as a token to the owner so that he/she knows that they are still a part of thispany" Theo said.


    He knew that the current owner preferred dering bankruptcy to selling so he nned to not buy all the shares and somehow convince the owner to be a shareholder of thepany.


    Sayuri stopped the refusal she was prepared to say and fell into thought.


    ''That''s a much better offer than thest.'' She thought


    Thest offer was outrageous. They offered only 150k to buy all the shares of thepany. 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 n to reform thispany. That will revolutionize and make a new and more famouspany. And I have a manga here that I am sure will be famous. I assure you that I am serious about making thispany sessful but without losing its roots." Theo said to ended his arguments.


    Sayuri felt emotional as she has been trying to make Fuji Jump Co. sessful but her rivals poached her mangakas and she suffered set back after a setback. When she heard that thepany could stand up again, she made a decision.


    "Mr. Gray to be honest with you, I am the owner of thispany and I didn''t have any intention of selling but hearing you talk about making the Fuji Jump Co. sessful 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.


    Theo was surprised that she was the owner but that didn''t matter as he was happy that she epted 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 thepany. 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 mypanies.'' He thought.


    ''I should establish apany to oversee the management of mypanies'' 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 apany that in the name is going to oversee the operations of mypanies but this is gonna be a shellpany. As I am going to establish apany that in the shadows will operate everything. So, your task is opening 2panies. One shellpany and the other a discreetpany." Theo exined his n.


    "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 2panies with the government" Sam said.


    "What name I register them, Theo?" Sam questioned.


    Theo thought about it when suddenly he remembered something.


    "Umbre Corporation for the shellpany. And Sk Corporation for the operatingpany." Theo said yfully 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 nheless.<sub> </sub>


    "I also want you to rent a floor of amercial building to be our headquarters. It is inappropriate for us to upy 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 eximed 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 thepany.


    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 ofpanies 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 herpany.


    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 awyer to the purchase be official. Sayuri said in the afternoon thewyer would deliver him the marked and original contract.


    Theo was happy. In the afternoon he would be the major shareholder of thispany.


    "Now that everything is over, I want to show you something to assure you that my promise for you wille 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 thepany building as he looked at the report, Sayuri delivered, about all the workings of thepany. 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 thepany anymore.


    "I would love to." she said excitedly.


    So, for the next 2 hours, Theo exined his n for thepany. He said he would send her a detailed n 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.
