Chapter 401At noon, Matthew made his way to Cunningham Pharmaceuticals on his motorbike to pick Sasha up
before heading to The Court Parlour. Several shareholders of the company had booked a table at the
restaurant to buy him lunch. By the time the couple entered the private room, the shareholders were
already inside waiting for them, and everyone was in high spirits.
This time, all of them had made the decision to trust Matthew and invest in him. The result was that
Eastcliff managed to seize an overwhelming victory in the medical conference and made a profit
multiple times their capital. Although what they had received were purely medical resources, they could
still make money with them.
“Mr. Larson, President Cunningham, you guys are finally here!”
“Come over and take your seat at the head of the table!”
Finding it hard to reject their offers, Matthew and Sasha sat down. Before long, the dishes were served
noveldramaand all the shareholders started toasting to Matthew as a token of appreciation for his effort.
Among all the shareholders who only owned an average amount of assets, Mr. Jefford was the
wealthiest with around one to two hundred million worth of assets. This time, he had invested
approximately ten million in Matthew and ended up getting a return of around seventy to eighty million,
which was multiple times the amount of his capital and almost half of his total assets. As for the rest of
the shareholders, some of them had even managed to double their total assets with this investment. It
was easy to see how grateful they were for Matthew.
Halfway through the lunch, Mr. Jefford spoke with a smile, “Mr. Larson, it is all thanks to you that I amable to earn such a huge profit this time! I can tell you are really talented and capable, and I’ve made
up my mind to back you up in all your future investments! You just need to say the word and I will
support you all the way, even if it means selling off everything I own!”
The rest of them nodded and chimed in, “That’s right, Mr. Larson. No matter what project you’re going
to do in the future, just tell us if you need our help!”
Matthew chuckled and nodded at them, “Gentlemen, I should be the one thanking you all for the
support we received. Without it, I would have to crack my head to deal with the crisis at Cunningham
Pharmaceuticals. Here is a toast to all of you!”
With that, Matthew picked up his glass of wine and downed its contents, thereafter everyone followed
suit. Even Sasha joined in by taking a small sip.
To be honest, Jefford and the rest of the shareholders had done them a huge favor this time. At that
time, Sasha was facing the biggest crisis of all, in which the customers requested to cancel their orders
and the shareholders demanded her to step down from her position as they doubted her abilities. If it
had not been for Jefford and the rest who were willing to offer their timely support to Sasha, things
would have gotten out of control. The board of the company would have surely made a unanimous
decision to remove Sasha from the company. Hence, Matthew and Sasha were deeply grateful for all of
them.
Some time later, one of them suddenly laughed and said, “By the way, Mr. Larson and President
Cunningham, Theodore Clark called me this morning and asked me whether he could extend his
company’s contract with Cunningham Pharmaceuticals. However, I rejected him outright without asking
the both of you.” Theodore Clark used to be a customer of Cunningham Pharmaceuticals. When the Hughes were
sabotaging Cunningham Pharmaceuticals, Theodore chose to hit them when they were down and
terminate all the contracts he had with them. The dispute between the two parties even escalated to
the extent that they had to go to court to settle it. Right now, most of the companies which chose to
terminate their contracts with Cunningham Pharmaceuticals during the crisis had already settled their
dispute with them in court, except for a few who were ethical enough not to do so.
Matthew chortled and agreed, “You made the right decision. This time, Eastcliff has been given plenty
of medical resources, so we’re planning to expand Cunningham Pharmaceuticals to cover all six states
instead of confining its operations in Eastshire! Gentlemen, I promise the revenue of the company this
time will triple the previous amount within the coming three days. I really don’t see the need to do
business with those companies that didn’t honor their promises!”
