Main Body
Last year, 90 percent of shareholders liked Natsuno. This year, only 59.68 percent liked him. A company from Hong Kong called Oasis Management told people to vote against him. They said the company did not make enough money.
去年有 90% 的股東支持夏野剛。今年僅有 59.68% 的股東支持他。一家名為 Oasis Management 的香港公司呼籲人們投票反對他,理由是該公司獲利不足。
Kadokawa has some problems. It spends too much money to make anime. It also sells too many of the same types of books. Because of this, the company's profit is very low.
KADOKAWA 目前面臨一些問題。公司在製作動畫上花費過多,且出版了過多重複類型的書籍。因此,公司的利潤非常低。
The company board wants Natsuno to stay. They do not have another leader to take his place. They think a new leader now would cause problems.
公司董事會希望夏野剛留任。他們目前沒有其他適任者可以接替他的位置,認為現在更換領導者會引起問題。
Conclusion
Natsuno is still the boss. But Kadokawa will now look at its plans to make shareholders happy.
夏野剛仍然是負責人。但 KADOKAWA 現在將重新審視其計畫,以滿足股東。

📉 The 'Compare' Trick
When we talk about changes in time, we use simple words to show a difference. Look at these two patterns from the text:
- Last year 90% (High)
- This year 59.68% (Low)
How to use this: To move from A1 to A2, stop using just one time. Use Last [Time] vs This [Time] to show a trend.
💡 Useful Word Pairings
In business and daily life, some words always 'stick' together. I found these in the story:
- Make money (To earn profit)
- Cause problems (To create a bad situation)
- Take his place (To replace someone)
Tip: Don't learn words alone. Learn them in these small groups!
