Chapter 96: Turning
After entering the dry rest house, the staff of the foreign trade of the Chinese medicine were also counted, but Frankie was shocked.
The clear river surrounds the dry rest house for half a week, close to the lakeside woods, not to mention the beautiful scenery, and the place is unusually vast. Scattered among flower beds, lawns and trees, all of them are two-story villas.
Naturally, there were active-duty soldiers standing guard at the door, and the polished steel guns were shining, oozing a faint majesty.
The road construction, done by the engineering troops, is smooth and clean, copied from the design of the former Soviet Union, in the Baltic style. The flat ground away from the white medical building, and the heated swimming pool, which is rare in China...... At first glance, the entire retreat looks like a luxury clubhouse.
"Are we going to see a high-ranking government official?" asked Frankie, cautiously. Before coming to China, he was trained by the embassy, and he explained in detail how to correctly face Chinese civilians and how to correctly face Chinese officials. Among them, there are inevitably some alarmist places, lest they commit a big taboo.
Meetings with high-ranking Chinese government officials are obviously a matter of great attention.
Frankie also became nervous in an instant. It's like Chinese in Myanmar, maybe they don't care how Burmese civilians with a monthly income of 300 yuan think of themselves, but if they see a Burmese general, I'm afraid that few people can put on a proud posture.
If there were guards with guns outside the general's residence, the feeling would be even different.
Lu Chengcai had never been to the cadre rest house, looked at it with the same curiosity, and explained to Frankie: "This is for retired military cadres to live, and in China it is called a cadre rest house." ā
In order to translate this word, Lu Chengcai made a lot of effort.
Frankie wondered, "Why are we talking about business with retired military cadres?"
"The technical owner you want, that is, Yang Rui, his grandfather is a retired army cadre. ā
Frankie was surprised: "He's the general's son?"
"Not so advanced, however, there is also a certain amount of power. Lu Chengcai thought to himself: If it is the grandson of a general with status, what else can we talk about, just give the benefits that can be given.
Despite thinking so, Lu Chengcai was also not very relieved, and bowed his head to the company leader who came with him and said, "Director Hai, let's go in directly?"
Director Hai is 10 years older than Lu Chengcai, and his position is one level higher, but he is the director of the extremely important sales department of APIs and fine chemicals, which completely determines the sales decision of TCM Foreign Trade in terms of APIs and fine chemicals. In the case of very little export of domestic pharmaceutical preparations and medical devices, Director Hai can be said to be the most important director of the entire National Medical Foreign Trade Corporation.
Unlike Lu Chengcai, his focus is not on a single coenzyme Q10 technology, but on the partnership with Jielikang.
Since Jielizena cared, he cared.
Sinopharm Foreign Trade is a foreign trade company after all, and there are too few APIs and fine chemicals that can be sold in China. From their point of view, sales at this time are more important than profits, and as long as they can make a big plate, they are willing.
Therefore, Director Hai said to the fat man Frankie very kindly: "Now, we have to negotiate with his family." The cadres of the army are not the same as those of our state-owned enterprises, and it is a little difficult to speak, so you have to pay attention. ā
"Definitely, definitely. Frankie bowed his head and spoke, his voice deep.
Director Maritime realized that Frankie's expression was wrong, but he didn't think it was necessary to help him explain.
Anyway, foreigners want it, and there is no harm in foreign trade of Chinese medicine, listen to it first.
The location of the negotiation was set in the restaurant of the dry rest house, and there were no private seats or private rooms here, and Yang Rui and the others also chose a central location, as if they had chartered the restaurant.
Of course, in fact, there are old men who keep coming and going, paying attention to eating less and eating more, those who are greedy, those who miss some meals, one counts as one, and they have to chat with Yang Shan when they come.
It took Frankie and others ten minutes just to introduce him, allowing him to see the Chinese speed of the 80s again.
Finally recognized each other's people, Lu Chengcai coughed and said, "Let's confirm our intentions first." Jielikang now wants to buy Yang Rui's technology, and is willing to pay a certain price. Traditional Chinese medicine and foreign trade are also willing to contribute to this matter, Yang Rui ...... Comrade, you are willing to sell now. ā
Yang Rui sat up straight, but did not speak, he was still a middle school student, although he was the owner of technology, but here, speaking did not carry much weight, it was better not to speak.
Yang Shan didn't even follow Lu Chengcai's path to speak, so he put the wine glass in front of him with a snap and said, "What's the point of just talking, let's have a drink first." ā
"Secretary Yang, I'm not very good at drinking. "Before Lu Chengcai came, he also learned about Yang Shan's public information.
Yang Shan snorted: "What are you doing when you don't know how to drink?"
Lu Chengcai's expression was even more bitter, he was taken by Yang Shan's momentum, and said with low eyebrows: "I'm a translator, don't you just play tricks." ā
"Then you have to drink it, too. "Yang Shan's military style didn't give him a chance to breathe at all.
Director Hai looked at it and hurriedly said, "Otherwise, I'll give you a drink, let's touch a cup together." ā
As he spoke, he stood up and raised his glass to face Yang Shan.
Yang Shan touched the cup with him, took a sip, and said, "I'm old, my health is not good, and the doctor doesn't let me drink." ā
"This ...... This ......" Director Rao is a hero of the wine country, and he can't force an old revolutionary in a dry rest house to drink, and then look at Yang Rui, a young man with red lips and white teeth, he is not suitable for drinking.
As for Rui Ma and Duan Hang, they didn't come to the table at all.
Director Hai hesitated and didn't know what to say, Yang Shancai didn't have so many scruples, and nodded to Lu Chengcai and said, "Hurry up, get rid of your cup." ā
Lu Chengcai was forced to be helpless and hung his head to drink.
The director of the sea was left, standing alone on the opposite side, somewhat unhappy.
Yang Shan smiled, first filled Lu Chengcai, and then beckoned a orderly to come over, and said, "Accompany Director Hai to drink the wine." ā
"Yes!" the orderly put his feet together, picked up the cup, took a dry mouthful, showed the bottom of the cup, saluted again, and turned back to stand guard again.
This was also a step, and the chief had no choice but to drink the wine, sit down again, and never mention a toast.
Yang Shan didn't let Lu Chengcai go, and forced him to drink three glasses of wine before he moved his chopsticks, saying: "Drinking alcohol hurts your body, eat some cold dishes and drink again." ā
Lu Chengcai couldn't reason with the old cadres who had orderlies, so he smashed his teeth and swallowed them in his stomach, and ate two mouthfuls of braised pork, Fang pressed down the nausea in his stomach, and said, "Secretary Yang, we are actually very sincere......"
"What is your role in this matter?" Yang Shan interrupted without giving him a chance to speak.
Lu Chengcai straightened his chest and said: "We are mainly matchmaking, Jielikang Company is talking about cooperation with our foreign trade of traditional Chinese medicine, hoping to import some medicines and equipment from China to foreign sales, which is also our main job." Of course, technology transfer also falls under the category of foreign trade sales......"
"Do they give you money?"
"No ......"
"So, they paid for the technology in Yang Rui's hands, Yang Rui got the money, you don't want anything, is that what you mean?"
Director Hai coughed vigorously and said, "Secretary Yang, in principle, we in pharmaceutical foreign trade do not interfere with the technology acquisition of Jielikang Company, but we hope to put them in the same framework to talk. ā
"How long will that take?"
"It may take a while. Director Hai smiled and said: "This is also in line with our country's medium and long-term planning, and we can negotiate together to obtain better conditions." ā
Yang Rui shook his head slightly. Merger negotiations, he himself is not the subject of negotiations, naturally there is a risk of being affected by the pond fish, the overall conditions may be improved, the conditions of a single project are not necessarily, when the time comes, he will have to negotiate with the foreign trade of traditional Chinese medicine again, rather than this, it is really better to make a clean deal with Jielikang.
However, the focus of foreign trade of traditional Chinese medicine is on domestic and foreign cooperation, even if coenzyme Q10 can earn them millions of yuan, or even tens of millions of yuan in the future, these big men do not care. Because a large pharmaceutical company like Jielizeneca can often produce tens of millions or even billions of dollars of planning maps, such a "future" is naturally more conspicuous in the report.
Yang Shan also knew Yang Rui's position, and said with his head bowed: "Since this is the case, I will call another person." Yang Rui, go and call your uncle. ā
Yang Rui nodded steadily, turned around and called his uncle Duan Hua.
When people arrived, it was naturally another introduction.
Frankie greeted him ignorantly, not understanding why a Chinese working in the meat factory appeared, but the head of the sea and Lu Chengcai's faces changed slightly.
At this time, the effect of Grandpa Yang Shan's sitting has already risen, Yang Rui straightened his cuffs, smiled and asked in English: "Mr. Frankie, does your company have to cooperate with Sinopharm Foreign Trade, or can you cooperate with other companies?"
Lu Chengcai blushed after drinking, and now he was even more anxious to drip blood, and hurriedly translated for Director Hai.
Director Hai actually understands a little simple English, and he doesn't even need to understand it, he knows what Yang Rui wants to do.
In the 80s, the domestic biological product companies were all owned by the meat factory, but the jurisdiction was under the Ministry of Health, and in terms of ownership, it was a bit chaotic. But no matter how messy they are, they are not in line with the foreign trade of traditional Chinese medicine.
The problem is that as long as you can cross the border with foreign exchange now, it is a good thing to be able to pass through the sky.
Guoyi Foreign Trade is now talking about a big deal with Jielikang, and I don't care about such a little profit or investment, and the meat factory in a region is different.
Director Hai is sure that as long as there is a benefit of $10,000, the local meat factory will dare to take the lawsuit to the Ministry of Health. Anyway, they are all fighting for the interests of the small circle for the affairs of the public, and the name is seen by the big leaders, and there are only good things and no bad things.
Without waiting for Frankie to answer, Director Hai said first: "No matter this meat factory, there is no right to export foreign trade." ā
"I'm sorry, but the West Fort Meat Factory really has it. Duan Hua said proudly when he talked about the Xibao Meat Factory: "Since the 60s, our Xibao Meat Factory has begun to export white meat to Warsaw Pact countries every year, and in recent years, it has expanded to South Africa and Eastern European countries, so there is no need to worry about the issue of export rights." ā
"White strip meat is not the same as medicine. ā
"Whether biological products are considered medicine or not, I think it is necessary to explain from the form and characteristics of the exported products, and if I have time, I can write an article for the director of the sea to taste. Yang Rui smiled at the other party, turned his head again, and said to Frankie: "Jierekang wants to buy my technology, or for the finished product of coenzyme Q10." However, as far as I know, the cost of producing biological products using tissue extraction in the UK is significantly higher than in Southeast Asia. Xibao Meat Factory has a primary factory for biological products, as long as a simple input, you can continue to supply Coenzyme Q10 products to Jielikang Company, I don't know, do you have this intention?"
"What about the amount of investment?"
"You can start with £300,000 and build a very good factory with £1 million. "The 80s were the golden age of bioproduct companies, the so-called factories, that is, the enlarged real yà n rooms, built a little more with more money, and built a little less with less money, which still belonged to the simple accumulation of mechanical instruments and personnel, and the threshold was relatively low.
Of course, Yang Rui also asked for a small number, so as not to scare Jielikang. There is still a considerable gap between the £300,000 investment and the £1,000 buyout price proposed by Frankie.
Director Hai and Lu Chengcai were both lightly relieved when they heard Yang Rui's asking price. Where is the investment so easy to do, if you have a meal and a few glasses of wine, you can have 1 million US dollars, and the whole of the foreign trade of Chinese medicine will be counted as if you are dead.
Frankie was lost in thought.
Yang Rui calmly joined the bargaining chips: "The new factory equipment arrives, and production can start within three months, with a monthly output of 30 kilograms when the raw materials are sufficient." ā
Coenzyme Q10 is a very low content of biochemical products, by the standard of the 80s, the output of 100 grams of pig heart is less than 30 mg, and the domestic extraction of 20 mg is considered a good result, 30 kg of coenzyme Q10 means at least 100 tons of pig heart extract, the scale is not small.
Like this kind of product, pharmaceutical companies sell as much as they want, and any rich heart patient who wants to live for two more years may have to consume hundreds of grams or even more of coenzyme Q10, in European and American terms, this is more like an effective real drug, and it also belongs to the competition for privileges.
Frankie couldn't help but ask, "What about your conditions?"
Director Hai and Lu Chengcai came up again in one breath.
