In which sentence is this expression used correctly, in the same sense as Bruno uses it?
This is an incorrect answer. As it is used in this dialogue, the expression "in the long run" does not refer to the physical act of running! You could say that Kenyans are good at "long-distance running", however.
This is a correct answer. "In the long run" or "in the long term" means over an extended period of time. Bruno states that his goal or objective is for the company to succeed "in the long run", meaning that his objective is for the company to be successful over the long term.
This is an incorrect answer. "In the long run" cannot be used in this way. The expression does not refer to the main point (also called the "bottom line" or "main idea") of the story. A better way to write this sentence would be "the bottom line of the story is that he made millions working with foreign oil companies."
This is an incorrect answer. "In the long run" does not mean "eventually" or "finally". The expression does not refer to short periods of time, either.
