Chapter 704  Andrew sneered .


    I call you an idiot , and youre still trying to argue .


    Amazing .


    Youve got sky high production costs , and now youre nning to get into a price war withpetitors who can undercut you without breaking a sweat .


    The moment they lower their prices , your so called strategy will copse like a house of cards .


    Michael opened his mouth to respond but came up empty .


    His face darkened as he struggled to find aeback .


    The other executives exchanged uneasy nces .


    They wanted to defend Michaels point , but they simply did not have the knowledge to counter Andrews logic .


    Even Tianas eyes narrowed slightly as she mentally reviewed the Pharmaceutical Divisions current situation .


    Andrews analysis had exposed a ring w she had not fully considered before .


    All right , Mr.


    Lloyd , Tiana said , leaning slightly forward .


    Since you see the problem so clearly, what would you suggest we do to gain an advantage ? Andrew stretched and gave azy yawn .


    The solutions pretty obvious .


    Either reduce production costs or develop high quality products that nobody else can replicate .


    Everybody knows theres only one guaranteed path to massive profits offering something no one else can .


    In other words , what you need is … a monopoly .


    The word seemed to suck the air out of the room .


    A monopoly ? Rhodes Corporation did not have the power to pull that off .


    In fact , fewpanies did .


    Even the wealthiest families hesitated to im control over an entire industry or market .


    Andrew smirked as he took in their stunned faces .


    Since were on the topic , let me give Mr.


    Rhodes and the rest of you high level experts a free lesson .


    Michaels face darkened further .


    The executives bristled at the condescending tone but did not dare speak up .


    Andrew had already left them speechless once , and nobody wanted to step into the line of fire again .


    Even Tiana shifted in her chair , her curiosity piqued .


    However , Andrew did not immediately continue .


    He simply leaned back , crossed his arms , and yawned again , lookingpletely uninterested in the discussion .


    Sitting beside him , Lauren raised an eyebrow , torn between amusement and frustration .


    The rest of the boardroom grew increasingly tense .


    One of the executives snapped , What the hell is this ? Mr.


    Lloyd , if you have something to say , then say it .


    Cant you see Mrs.


    Rhodes is waiting ? Andrew slowly turned his gaze toward the man .


    Where are your manners ? Im offering you a free lecture , yet you cant even pour me a cup of tea ? The executives face turned bright red .


    What did you just say ? You want me to serve you tea ? Who the hell do you think you are ? Andrew shrugged .


    Suit yourself .


    If youre not willing to show basic respect , then lets just end the meeting here .


    Honestly , with your attitude , its no wonder youve spent decades stuck in the same position without a single promotion .


    The man mmed his palm on the table .


    Andrew , who the hell do you think you are to act like my superior ? Ive been with Rhodes Corporation for decades .


    I helped build thispany alongside the family .


    And you youre just a rookie who showed up yesterday ! Chapter 704  Andrew lifted a finger and wagged it slowly .


    Let me break this down for you .


    Ive been here for only a few months , and Im already a board member .


    Youve been here for decades and are still just a glorified corporate fossil .


    He added , Face it youre just another overworked , underappreciated employee still grinding away when you should be retired and living the good life .


    If that isnt the definition of failure , I dont know what is .


    The mans breathing turned ragged , and his hand trembled as he pointed at Andrew .


    Y You … ! His face went pale , and for a second , everyone thought he might pass out on the spot .
