Jiro Kobayashi didn't expect Wei Liang to refuse so bluntly.

At least consider it, or pretend to consider it, right? Isn't that the respect expected in business negotiations?

Though furious inside, Jiro Kobayashi forced himself to suppress his anger.

If you want to break into the Asian market or even the global market, with your company's current strength, it's simply impossible to make any breakthroughs."
