194.Chapter 194: Breaking the Monopoly
"What are you asking for?" Sister Han finally became vigilant.
Yang Rui still spoke the truth and said: "I have a business relationship with Jielikang and want to know their situation. β
Sister Han looked at him carefully for a while, laughed out loud, and said, "It's not like lying a little, you have a business relationship with Jielikang, are you going to work in Jielikang's factory?"
"I've done some research, it's technical. β
"No, I've seen the researchers in Jielikang, and they are about the same as those in China, they are all thirty or forty years old. Sister Han joked twice, obviously not taking Yang Rui's truth seriously.
Yang Rui sighed, feeling that talking to this eldest sister Han, Cheng DΓΉ could almost be on par with Wei Zhenxue. Both of them have two attributes, that is, the types are not quite the same.
"Sister Han, no matter what I do, you can just take it as a small talk. Yang Rui still wants to know the situation in Tianjin, he has few news channels, but the one in front of him has first-hand information.
Sister Han looked at Yang Rui strangely, and said for a while, "Are you a reporter?"
Yang Rui was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "Do you think I look like a reporter?"
"It's not like it, reporters are always running outside, all tanned ......"
"That's because they don't anoint. Yang Rui laughed.
Sister Han took it seriously and asked, "Which newspaper are you from?"
Yang Rui hesitated, lowered his head and said, "I'm joking, not a reporter." Besides, you see that I am only 1 year old, how can I be a reporter. β
"My nephew graduated from secondary school, and he has been working for almost three years at the age of 1, if you are a reporter, you are all old reporters. β
Yang Rui was completely speechless.
In the 80s, high school was so cheating, if you didn't get admitted to college, all three years of high school were wasted, so some people said that the best students were admitted to primary secondary schools, and then key high schools and ordinary high schools.
However, this argument is that there is a market below the county level, and young people in cities will have more choices than in towns and villages, and family conditions are usually better, and parents often do not mind that their children go to high school for three more years, and college diplomas are too tempting.
In contrast, it is not easy for families with poor conditions to provide education for their children. No matter how frugal a high school student is, he will have to spend two or three hundred yuan a year, which is equivalent to the entire income of a peasant family.
Therefore, a teenager as old as Yang Rui works more than he doesn't.
Sister Han thought she had guessed correctly, but instead sat down and said, "Ask the pavilion, what do you want to know?"
Yang Rui was surprised and said, "I'm not a reporter. β
"Regardless of whether you are a reporter or not, when you write articles, you must help the eldest sister, don't you want to know the situation of Jielikang in Tianjin? Let me think about it, their shares in the second factory are 50%, the other 20% of the shares are in the foreign trade of traditional Chinese medicine, and 30% are in the second factory of Tianjin Pharmaceutical. If you want to export and earn foreign exchange, you have to go through the China Pharmaceutical Foreign Trade Corporation, and after they sell it, they will settle it for us. Sister Han spoke in detail.
Yang Rui groaned and asked, "What about the proportion of capital contribution?"
"You still know the word "contribution ratio", okay, yes. The proportion is according to the proportion of shares, but the second factory and the foreign trade of traditional Chinese medicine are all in RMB, and Jielikang is equivalent to foreign currency. β
"Is the exchange rate calculated according to the exchange rate of the People's Bank of China?"
"Yes. β
Yang Rui pouted. In the 80s, the renminbi had no price in the international market at all, and it was no different from the Ethiopian currency and the like, because China exported very few products, and foreign countries did not need to import large quantities of products from China, so there was no need for the yuan.
The same proportion of capital contribution, but the exchange rate is equivalent to the exchange rate of the People's Bank of China, which is equivalent to four-fifths of the funds provided by Jielikang, that is, 80% of the assets of the joint venture factory are provided by Jielikang, and 20% is shared by Tianjin No. 2 Pharmaceutical Factory and Guoyi Foreign Trade, and the two are divided into five accounts......
In terms of conditions, Youhoucheng dΓΉ is even better than the WestJet plant. After all, Yang Rui's technology has an international price.
In order to seize the Chinese market, Jielizen is also very hard.
In 183, the beach grabbing China is bigger than the 2013 beach grabbing India.
Yang Rui rubbed his temples and asked, "Is the foreign trade of traditional Chinese medicine also here this time?"
"Come on. β
"How many projects do they have in China?"
"There are three joint ventures that have been built, one in Shenzhen, and two pavilions under construction. Sister Han said something, and suddenly asked, "Don't you need a notebook or something, can you write it down?"
"I remember. Yang Rui pointed to his head.
"Young people just have a good memory. Sister Han said and couldn't help but say: "But eldest sister, I still have to say one, a good memory is not as good as a bad pen, you are a reporter, you can't always rely on your head to remember things, it doesn't work well, use more pens, don't be tired, don't suffer." β
"Yes......" Yang Rui nodded again and again.
The two talked about Jielikang's development model in China for a while, and then Sister Han went back to the room to rest bored.
Yang Rui gave him the remaining bottle of Coke, dressed himself again, and went to hang out below.
The entire Pingjiang Hotel is full of guests invited by Jielikang, and if you ask them where they are from, you can have a general understanding of Jielizen's business scope.
Frankie probably wanted to break his head, but he didn't know that inviting Yang Rui would have the opposite effect, and he was still doing his best to entertain the visiting officials.
Officials from the Hedong Provincial Government, Pingjiang Municipal Government, and so on, have reappeared.
Speaking of which, the current officials are also extremely busy, and if they want to do well, they can't have personal time at all, lunch time is for work, and dinner time is also for work. It would be a mistake for officials not to show up for a big company like Jielizen, so even if they knew they didn't have a chance, they still had to give it a try.
In the evening, the ball started as scheduled.
Yang Rui glanced over, and sure enough, everyone was bustling, all around the buffet.
With disdain and envy, the waiter at Pingjiang Hotel moved down the empty plates one by one and lifted the plates of food up.
The unlimited amount of meat, eggs and fish surprised countless cadres who participated in the meeting. Although they eat and drink at public expense on weekdays, this kind of scene of eating as much as they can still stimulate the stomach and open up their appetite.
Yang Rui registered his name and invitation, found a corner, quietly ate his fill, and left quietly before Frankie appeared.
It is not possible not to come, and in order to cope with this buffet, the entire Pingjiang Hotel has closed both restaurants, and all the chefs have been dispatched.
Moreover, Yang Rui also felt greedy, although there was food and drink in Xibao Town, beef, sheep and pork, but there was no chance to eat a big meal, and Pingjiang Hotel had never done a buffet before, although the dishes were mainly served with cold dishes, the method was no different from the main seat, and the taste was still quite good.
It's that Jielikang bleeds a lot.
Yang Rui estimated that there were three or four hundred people attending the ball, not to mention eating the normal six or seven hundred people's banquet, that is, the food of sixty or seventy tables.
Yang Rui ate and drank to his heart's content and went back to the room. Frankie greeted several visiting officials, and then looked for Yang Rui, but naturally he couldn't find it.
I asked the Chinese waiter in charge of registration at the door, only to realize that Yang Rui had come and gone, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
The next day, Jielikang and TCM foreign trade cooperation held a successful conference.
The joint venture factory and the sales company all spoke actively at the conference and became familiar with each other.
Other than that, it doesn't make much sense.
The number of medicines that Jielizene's joint venture factory can sell to China is limited, because opening up the supply is equivalent to opening the country, and avoiding the high taxes of customs. Therefore, from a domestic point of view, the sale of pharmaceuticals by the joint venture factory to the domestic market is one of the preferential treatment for the joint venture factory.
On the other hand, the export of pharmaceuticals by the joint venture factories can earn the foreign exchange that is urgently needed in China, which is also the main reason why the central government proposes to attract investment.
However, as far as China's current level of medicine is concerned, pharmaceutical products from abroad are definitely in short supply, and the joint venture factories and sales companies have earned a lot of money in the past six months.
What Frankie was actually worried about was Yang Rui, who was not good at talking, but he couldn't spare time, and it wasn't until the fourth day that the idlers and others were sent away, and Frankie invited Yang Rui to the meeting.
Yang Rui has not been idle in the past few days, and has learned a lot about the situation through his own observation and phone calls.
When he arrived at the conference room, when he saw the familiar Frankie and the familiar Director Hai, Yang Rui smiled weirdly.
It was the high-spirited and energetic Director Hai, who remembered the past, and was immediately laughed very uncomfortable by Yang Rui, and said with a patient smile: "Xiao Yang is here, let me introduce you, this is Mayor Zhou of the Tianjin Municipal Party Committee, this is Director Jia of the Hedong Provincial Health Department, this is Secretary Lu of the Nanhu Prefectural Party Committee, this is Director Zheng of Tianjin Pharmaceutical No. 1 Factory, this is Director Liu of Tianjin Pharmaceutical No. 2 Factory, and this is Director Han of Tianjin Pharmaceutical No. 3 Factory......
Some people looked at Yang Rui curiously, such as Director Jia of the Hedong Provincial Health Department, and some people looked at Yang Rui in shock, such as Director Han of Tianjin Pharmaceutical No. 3 Factory.
Yang Rui sat calmly by the door.
The conference table provided by Pingjiang Hotel is a long wooden table with a white tablecloth on it, a plastic fake flower in the middle, ten chairs on each side, two in front and two, a total of 22 seats, and a one-ear teacup in front of each person.
Now, not only are the 22 chairs full, but the position against the wall is also occupied by translators and secretaries holding materials.
When Yang Rui saw so many people, he had a heavier premonition in his heart, smiled, said hello again, and said, "Director Hai came to me for the technical pavilion of refining solanesol?"
Director Hai was surprised: "Are you so sure?"
"It seems that Director Hai knows the technology of refining solanesol, and it was searched by Jielikang?" The so-called search here is the artificial technology search of their head office.
Reading the latest medical papers is considered the daily work of large pharmaceutical companies.
Director Hai laughed twice, pointed at Yang Rui and said, "Xiao Yang is still so confident. Seeing young people like you gives me hope for China's future......"
This guy is going on to talk at length as if he was giving a speech.
Yang Rui knew that he was just covering it up.
When he saw Director Hai, he was very sure that his article about refined solanesol was favored by Jielikang.
Because the full name of the office managed by the director of the sea is the sales office of APIs and fine chemicals, in other words, the raw materials and refined chemicals exported from all of China are under the jurisdiction of the director of the sea.
And refined solanesol isn't just a matter of making money with solanesol. Because solanesol is purified from tobacco leaves, and China is a big tobacco country, the remaining waste tobacco leaves of cigarettes every year are counted as 1,000 tons, and the entire industry will be a large industry that earns more than 100 million US dollars.
For the director of a central enterprise, it is not an exaggeration to call such a project a great achievement.
As far as Yang Rui knows, until the 21st century, the solanesol industry is an important branch of China's tobacco industry, and the price of tobacco must also take into account the price of solanesol.
However, China's refined solanesol industry has never developed, and the price of crude solanesol has been controlled step by step, and the enemy is also Japanese pharmaceutical companies. Once the Chinese government or any company concentrates on tackling such technologies, they will carry out industrial upgrading, reduce the price of finished products, and crack down on any enterprise or country that tries to break through monopoly barriers.
This development strategy was adopted in Japan as early as the 70s. The domestic technical foundation is weak, not to mention refining solanesol now, the crude solanesol industry is in the hands of Japanese companies, they transport cheap tobacco leaves from the whole ship in China, and after producing high-purity solanesol, it is exported to countries around the world, with a profit of one billion.
Not only is the foreign trade of the Chinese medicine where Director Hai is located, but also the British Zelizen, where Frankie is located, is also jealous of the monopoly business of Japanese companies. Because refined solanesol is an important pharmaceutical raw material and belongs to the upstream of the pharmaceutical industry chain, such upstream enterprises, if they are monopolized, will not make it easy for enterprises in the downstream of the industrial chain.
Jielikang also hopes to break the monopoly of Japanese companies.
Building a factory in China and adopting new technologies is the perfect solution.
Because China not only has cheap labor, but also cheap raw tobacco, even if Japanese companies have newer and better technology in stockpile, as long as they cannot reduce the price below the cost of Chinese companies, their monopoly strategy will be invalid.
Of course, Yang Rui must also understand this truth, which is why he chose this technology.
As for whether the other people at the conference table understand or not, or pretend to be confused, it is not something that Yang Rui can control.
However, with the technology in hand, he didn't need to control the others.
Yang Rui picked up the teacup unhurriedly and drank water while observing the expressions of others.
