That's not how investing works. They didn't give up their shares, they just kept the Ootori on as the managers, while still owning the company.

The Ootori obviously/probably had some management problems internally if they weakened themselves enough to get bought out. That his son saved the company is probably a pretty bad move from a personal finance standpoint, letting personal/emotional priorities supersede fiduciary duties. I think it would've been more impressive had he NOT saved the company and then lorded it over his father with all the money he would've saved.
