In the end, Hugo couldn't convince the man. So, he gave up.
"What's wrong with him? I was only doing something nice," Hugo complained after the man left the place.
Hiro looked at him and said, "Tipping isn't in our culture. Well, although some might accept the tip, there continue to be some who remain adamant against it."
Hugo nodded, "Japan sure is interesting."
He was impressed by the work ethic of the Japanese people.
Then he got seated opposite Hiro and formally introduced himself, "Hello, Hiro. I'm Hugo Castillo, the representative of Athletico Madrid."
"First of all, I'd like to thank you again for accepting our offer."
"The pleasure is all mine, sir. I'm glad to receive such a sincere and huge offer from such a prestigious club," Hiro said, his tone humble.
"But can I be honest with you sir?" Hiro added.
