Chapter 6944
Charlie deliberately pretended to be confused and said with a smile,
“Your break with them is your personal decision.”
“I respect your personal decision,”
“And you don’t need to ask for instructions or report to me.”
“Sh!t…”
Bertnard’s heart skipped a beat, and he nervously pondered,
“Is Charlie planning to deny his words?”
“If he attributes my withdrawal from the market to a personal decision not under his orders,”
“Then won’t he give me any points? If that’s the case, I’m screwed!”
He turned pale with fear, a cold sweat pouring down his face,
And his arm, holding the phone, began to tremble uncontrollably.
He suppressed his inner fear and tentatively asked,
“Wade… Mr. Wade… I was at the press conference at the time and couldn’t directly consult you.”
“So I took the initiative to announce my withdrawal from the local market.”
“I wonder if you can still give me some points?”
After saying this, he was extremely nervous, afraid that Charlie would say no.
Charlie, on the other end of the line, smiled faintly and said,
“Your reputation is now at its peak.”
“The whole world regards you as the most righteous, wealthy man.”
“This time, not only has all your previous negative information been completely cleared,”
“But your reputation has even reached a new high.”
“More importantly, according to my speculation, even if you shut down the entire market there,”
“Your global sales will not decrease but increase.”
“The local market will also spill over to neighboring Canada and the whole of Europe.”
“So you shouldn’t suffer any substantial losses from this decision.”
“You may even usher in a new wave of growth.”
“Furthermore, your fame was already far-reaching during your time on White Horse Island.”
“Add to that this trip, and you can be said to have reaped a huge harvest of fame and fortune.”
Although Charlie had already tacitly approved of Bertnard’s actions, he had to let him know that he had seen through his calculations.
He had to make him understand this first,
And then express his approval of his actions,
So that he would know that he was being lenient.
If he didn’t make this clear,
He might think that his cleverness had successfully fooled him and that he hadn’t seen through his motives.
Seeing through him, exposing him, making him extremely nervous, and then granting him a pardon,
He would never again dare to take any chances or try to play tricks on me.
Instead, he would be even more grateful and respectful of me.
This was the old saying: first suppress, then praise.
Furthermore, I had to point out everything I had done for him:
The astonishing achievements on White Horse Island, the passionate sentiments.
These were all opportunities and platforms I had created for him.
Without me, how could he have achieved his current immense reputation?
This kind of reputation could not be bought with money.
No one could buy such merit.
While Charlie lacked Bertnard’s cunning business acumen and tactics,
His control over people’s hearts was far more profound than that of this 70-year-old man.
Therefore, he had to keep a firm grip on him!
At this moment, Bertnard was truly panicked.
He thought this trick could trap Charlie, even make him, like everyone else, be intimidated by his righteousness.
But unexpectedly, Charlie saw through everything.
He felt as if he’d been stripped naked in public, filled with shame, nervousness, and fear.
So, he could only smile bitterly and say,
“I’m sorry, Mr. Wade. I… I… I didn’t mean to play tricks on you.”
“I was just so angry at the time that I made this decision.”
“And I’m filled with gratitude to you.”
“Not only did you save my life, but you also gave me great credit for White Horse Island and made me world-famous.”
“My gratitude to you is beyond words…”
At this point, he trembled and said,
“As for the profit issue, you’re right.”
“With the reputation you’ve bestowed upon me, even if I shut down the market,”
“The group’s overall revenue will definitely increase.”
“I… I don’t have the nerve to ask you to calculate points for me…”
At this point, Bertnard had already given up on the idea of getting points from Charlie.
He knew full well that Charlie was right.
Charlie had already given him so much,
And if he still shamelessly asked for points at this time,
No one would think it was inappropriate.
