"Who are you going to discuss business with today?"
As soon as she got in the car, Shen Youyou asked about the business, and Zhou Sheng handed her a piece of information.
"Jin Mingchuan?"
"You know him?"
"What medical student wouldn't know him?"
Shen Youyou explained while flipping through the information.
"Half of the required readings for medical students were published by him, so I know him quite well. He used to be a professor at Kyoto University. Later, because his daughter was sick and needed a large amount of medical expenses, he went into business and started a pharmaceutical business. You Do you have business dealings with him?"
"That's right."
"So you are also in the pharmaceutical business?" Shen Youyou immediately looked at Zhou Sheng and said bluntly: "It doesn't look like it."
"Why, do you need to have a standard appearance to be in the pharmaceutical business?"
"That's not the case." Shen Youyou snarled and continued: "I just think you are more like a gangster."
"Underworld?"
"Okay, that's not important. Let's quickly talk about the relationship between you."
Seeing Zhou Sheng's face as frozen as an ice cellar, Shen Youyou quickly changed the topic.
Zhou Sheng took a breath, as if he was digesting his emotions, and after a long while, he slowly began to speak.
"In the early years, I funded a biological research laboratory abroad that specialized in the research of effective drugs for rare diseases. I hired Jin Mingchuan to be responsible for the production of effective drugs for rare diseases."
"We used to cooperate, but now we don't. What happened?"
Zhou Sheng sighed heavily, with a bit of displeasure and unwillingness in his mood.
"As a doctor, you should also know how difficult it is to overcome genetic diseases, and the research and development costs are high and the audience is small. I am doing charity, so no profit is acceptable, but Jin Mingchuan is a businessman, and he cannot accept long-term negative management. model, so he announced the discontinuation of production within two years.”
"So you want me to help you persuade him?"
"It may be a little difficult to persuade."
Zhou Sheng actually approached Jin Mingchuan many times, but the other party rejected him every time.
He looked at Shen Youyou, not wanting to put any pressure on him, and said softly, "I just want you to help me observe him carefully, and then look for his weaknesses, just like you did with Xu Hongfei."
"No, this is different."
Shen Youyou closed the document and looked at it with clear eyes that showed intelligence.
"Xu Hongfei is convicted, while Jin Mingchuan is cooperated. The essence is different. If you want to use his weaknesses to overcome him and achieve cooperation, it is at best coercion and inducement.
Although I am not in business, I also know that the best way to promote cooperation is interest, so as long as you find his interests, cooperation will not be difficult."
"Miss Shen, these bosses naturally know."
Mo Yu, who had been driving, seemed to be unable to bear it any longer. He probably felt that Shen Youyou's thinking was too simplistic.
He talked about a lot of projects, mostly complaining about how difficult the research was, how expensive it was, and the problems you would face later in the market.
Shen Youyou did not deny it, but said after listening, "There will always be benefits if you look carefully."
The car arrived at the hotel soon, and Shen Youyou followed Zhou Sheng out of the car.
As soon as he entered the hall, he was greeted by bright lights. It was the first time for Shen Youyou to see such a grand scene. The entire banquet hall was filled with dignitaries, and even the waiters were car models.
The food buffets are also divided into regions, including Chinese food, Western food, Japanese food, and Thai food. In short, there is nothing you haven't seen before, and nothing you can't think of.
"What? Are you nervous?"
As if he noticed something strange about Shen Youyou, Zhou Sheng turned his head and asked with slight concern.
When Shen Youyou heard this, she quickly straightened her chest up.
"No."
There was a bit of stubbornness in her eyes, which made Zhou Sheng laugh, but he still grabbed her hand and put it on his arm.
"Take your arm and follow me."
Shen Youyou quickly followed the instructions, and then imitated the elegance of others and followed Zhou Sheng step by step.
"Mr. Zhou, long time no see."
"Long time no see, Mr. Yang."
Zhou Sheng greeted him politely, and Shen Youyou also held a red wine glass and called after him. After going around in a circle, he called dozens of times, but Jin Mingchuan was not seen.
"He didn't come, did he?"
"It's definitely coming."
Zhou Sheng looked at the crowd in front of him and seemed to realize that this was not the way to go, so he took Shen Youyou directly to Jin Mingchuan's lounge.
VIPs all have their own lounges, and Jin Mingchuan is no exception. However, Shen Youyou feels that it is not good to rush in like this, but Zhou Sheng told her, "Sometimes if you don't use necessary means, you will miss it." Lots of opportunities.”
Shen Youyou was stunned. Although he thought his words were a bit extreme, he couldn't think of anything to refute, so he could only sit down and wait together.
More than half an hour later, the door opened and Jin Mingchuan finally appeared.
"halee?"
Jin Mingchuan called Zhou Sheng's English name and seemed very affectionate. Zhou Sheng immediately stood up from the sofa when he saw this.
The two did not shake hands, but hugged with Western etiquette. When he saw Shen Youyou, Jin Mingchuan's eyes immediately began to look at him, and then he asked with a smile, "Girlfriend?"
Zhou Sheng didn't answer. He smiled and immediately changed the topic.
"When I heard the news that you were coming to Nancheng, I immediately sent you an invitation letter, but you never responded, so I could only show up uninvited in this way. Mr. Jin, you won't blame me, right? "
"How is that possible?" Jin Mingchuan's face showed a bit of embarrassment, but he still smiled and explained, "I'm a little busy during this period, so I don't check my mailbox often."
"It's okay, I just want to see you now."
Zhou Sheng knew that time was limited, so he didn't want to beat around the bush and asked directly.
"Actually, I came here today to discuss cooperation with Mr. Jin."
"Is it still the same project as before?"
"right."
Jin Mingchuan sighed immediately and looked at Zhou Sheng with a somewhat confused look.
"halee, with all due respect, I never understand why you are so insistent. In fact, I have made my attitude clear a long time ago. I cannot continue with this project.
You also know that in a year and a half, I lost more than 300 million. Unlike you, I am not a philanthropist, I am a businessman, so I have no way to stick to the negative profit model."
"I understand, but the laboratory I funded this year has new research results. Mr. Jin, you know SMA, we have developed cheaper specific drugs."
"Halee, even if it is cheaper, it is still expensive compared to other normal drugs, and the incidence of rare diseases like this is very low. For example, the incidence of SMA you just mentioned is only 1/6000. ~1/10000, so how big is the national audience?”
"But it shouldn't be given up even if the audience is small."
Shen Youyou stood aside and finally couldn't bear it anymore. She spoke, her voice full of sincerity and sincerity.
For a moment, Jin Mingchuan seemed to be moved, but it was only for a second, and then he returned to his usual shrewd appearance.
"I admit that these people are indeed pitiful and should not be given up, but they can do as much as they have the ability. I, Jin Mingchuan, really cannot hold up this banner."
Jin Mingchuan obviously didn't want to give him another chance, so he stood up straight away.
"The auction is about to start. I have to go out and get ready. Halee is very happy to meet you today. If I have the opportunity to go to Kyoto in the future, I will treat you well."
"Wait."
It was Shen Youyou who spoke. She stopped Jin Mingchuan and then asked in a clear and loud voice.
"If the drugs you produce can be profitable, will you be willing to continue to cooperate with us?"
