Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts novel Chapter 194

Gentry was taken aback, "I need to analyze the asset structure of the acquired company in detail before I can give you a clear answer."

"So, what do you think the ratio of cash flow to stock payments will be this year? Considering the current pace of development, what kind of dividend distribution plan should the company adopt to maximize the interests of shareholders and the company?"

Gentry seemed a bit ill at ease, "I need to study these issues in detail before I can give you an answer."

"You claim to have a deep understanding of the company's financial situation, but I've asked you several questions in a row and you can't give me an immediate answer, is this your so-called deep understanding?" Izzy retorted, her tone growing stern.

With Izzy's question, the other directors and senior managers of the company all turned their gaze toward him, with some doubting him and some disappointed and distrusting him.

Gentry's face became complicated, he was unable to control his emotions, "Izzy, you're deliberately making things difficult for me. All this data can't be obtained immediately, it needs time to be calculated carefully." This is something Izzy certainly knows, it's the nature of finance work. Unlike sales and purchasing, where familiar situations can be talked about fluently, finance is both rigorous and complex, and any miscalculation could potentially affect the company's development strategy, causing an incalculable loss.

Any experienced finance personnel wouldn't dare speak carelessly, all they could offer was a development idea.

"You said it takes time, so what's the problem if I need some time to understand the company's situation? Why do you assume that I can't handle this job?"

"Izzy, you're muddying the waters, we're not discussing the same issue." Gentry firmly retorted.

Izzy scoffed, her tone firm, "Whether it's muddying the waters or not, you know it yourself. I am giving you two days to organize the company's financial reports for the past three years and the quarterly report for the first quarter of this year. I want to see them the day after tomorrow."

"Two days is too short." Gentry said.

"I'm already being lenient by not asking you to have those reports on my desk by tomorrow morning. It's almost June now, the reports for the past three years should have been completed long ago, and the quarterly report for the first quarter should also be out. If you can't get them out in two days, what kind of work efficiency is that? Or are there some signs on the reports that you've tampered with? Do you think the time I gave you is too short and not enough for you to cover up?"

Izzy's words left Gentry speechless. If he dodged any further, he might be suspected of tampering with the reports. This young woman was really sharp.

Gentry's face turned sour, he clearly knew that Izzy was deliberately making things difficult for him, but he couldn't refute her.

"Ms. Galeana, please don't slander me without evidence."

"This is just a reasonable assumption; it's your attitude that aroused my suspicion."

Gentry gritted his teeth and accepted the task Izzy had set for him, "I understand, I will hand in the report on time in two days."
