Considering what would happen if he did, Ron would probably doesn't have a choice. Mind you, he never once tries to actually stop him.
Only Sane Man: Ron, The CEO's aide, who constantly tells The CEO the scams he tries to pull are illegal. (produces rocket launcher from Hammerspace) THIS, is my offer! The CEO: WOAH, WOAH! You haven't even heard my offer. And tell the concierge that let you in that they are fired. Rival CEO: (without looking up from his papers) Get out of my office, you clodhopping peasant. The CEO: I'd like to make you an offer, to acquire this fine establishment. An Offer You Can't Refuse: As the cover art helpfully shows us, our ageing CEO is quite fond of doing this to his competitors. Mega-Corp: Your goal, along with Take Over the City. Majority-Share Dictator: The CEO's rival, Featherbottom, obtains a 51% share in the company due to a buyout clause, and intends to oust him as soon as the next board meeting comes along. They're less humorous and more dangerous than Featherbottom or Tad their Missions have the highest stakes and their Leader is the Final Boss, and ruthless enough to warrant being Killed Off for Real (while Featherbottom and Tad are ruined and humiliated but still alive). In contrast, Featherbottom is hospitalized following a plot by The CEO to ensure he cannot buy out his company and the Cartel Leader is killed when Al storms his base. In terms of the three major rivals, Tad escapes in a car and flees Hawaii before Al can kill him. Karma Houdini: The CEO gets away with every dirty business trick in the book, and he even gets a Humanitarian award by the end of the game!. It Will Never Catch On: The CEO often insists that video streaming is just a fad. Felony Misdemeanor: Some of the ways The CEO commits the titular shakedowns include things like beating up the cashier and destroying the merchandise, as well as things like clogging the toilet with paper towels and dancing obnoxiously near customers. Evil Versus Evil: None of the characters in the game are traditionally sympathetic. However your character doesn't actually get any spending money until you get the option to set a salary for yourself. You can also unlock various multipliers such as false advertisement, credit cards and untested products to increase the values of the businesses. Several of the businesses require you to perform a Shakedown on the owner in order to make them available for purchase. An Entrepreneur Is You: The main goal of the game is to Take Over the City by buying up properties all over the island. The colors are more realistically tinted compared to the more colorful Retro City Rampage. Darker and Edgier: The game eschews pop-culture Reference Overdosed that adorns Retro City Rampage in favor of Take That! toward modern Mega-Corp business practices. The last you see of him is escaping Hawaii as a wanted criminal. First he was roped into faking gameplay video to promote "Gamer Cola" and then after having a rather stable shift job, got roped into doing crime with Scooter and Al for "publicity". Butt-Monkey: "Chad" AKA "MC Balm Drop" is this to highly exaggerated levels. Some cashiers will fight you head-on during Shakedowns. 
Some civilians will retaliate with handguns or baseball bats if you attack them.And Now for Someone Completely Different: The game will occasionally switch characters to focus on The CEO's attempt to rebuild his company, his son Scooter's GTA-esque street crime levels and Al, the "consultant" used to settle affairs overseas whose stages are purely combat oriented.
Anachronism Stew: See Retro Universe below.Taking place 30 years after Retro City Rampage, it stars an old, overweight (soon to be) Corrupt Corporate Executive in a quest to save his floundering company via crooked business practices aided by his son and his hired gun, in 16-bit graphics and Synthwave soundtrack.
