Time passed slowly, on this day, Xu Ping'an received a call that the two newly ordered scientific research ships were completed, and Xu Ping'an immediately gave another maintenance order.

The ship is currently docked at Apocalypse Island, and the shipyard can only give an answer after sending engineers to evaluate it, Xu Ping'an agreed, and the other two new research ships sent people to pick up and sail to Apocalypse Island.

Just breathed a sigh of relief, Dalina came in and reported, "Boss, the top ten pharmaceutical groups have already replied, and they are scheduled to come to the general office in a week to negotiate."

"I know, notify Lawyer Wu and let him arrange the itinerary, and after I have determined the big framework with them, the negotiation will be handed over to him" Xu Ping'an said directly, Darina nodded and left the office.

Xu Ping'an walked to the large floor-to-ceiling window, looked at the sky outside and said to himself, "If you want to share a piece of soup, it's not that simple."

After standing for a while, he let out a long sigh, he originally planned to go to Jinling to comfort Song Xinyun, but now he had to postpone it again, let Song Xinyun come over, and he couldn't even play his temper.

A week has passed in a flash, the chairmen of the top ten pharmaceutical groups have arrived in J City, early in the morning, Tianqi Group discharged vehicles to pick them up, and went to the conference room of Tianqi Group to discuss.

Xu Ping'an shook hands with the ten bigwigs, and everyone started talking in the conference room, arguing very much, because Xu Ping'an said a prerequisite with one mouth, before the official start of the talk, in order to express your sincerity, each family will pay 500 million euros.

Don't say anything about the 500 million in cash, this makes the ten big guys completely annoyed, you're too fucking hooligan, don't say anything about 500 million first, can we really slaughter it casually when we are Kaizi.

"Xu, your Apocalypse Group is good, but we are not without any ability, we can understand that you collect money, you must first announce what extent you have developed it now, and we will give a reasonable price after evaluation" Daniel, chairman of Johnson & Johnson, directly pushed back.

"Gentlemen, 500 million is the cost you know, without this money I will not tell you the progress of research and development, this is the entry fee, you need to pay a meeting fee to invite senior talents to join"

"This is the top secret plan of my Apocalypse Group, and I also have the funds to develop it independently, there is no need for you to get involved, there are many submarine volcanoes in the world, you can study it yourself," Xu Ping'an said without concession.

Many people's faces are black, we do our own research, the investment alone is too big, we don't know if there are results, we won't do such a money-losing thing.

Buying your project halfway is our forte" Xu, this is a business matter, don't force us to bring in political power, this is something you can't afford to play" Harrison, chairman of Pfizer Group, looked at Xu Ping'an and said.

"Yes, I want to try, if the political forces intervene, I dare to guarantee that all your Pfizer factories will explode, if you don't believe it, you can try" Xu Ping'an didn't let go back at all, playing yin, who is afraid of whom, Lao Tzu is not without dark power.

Many people looked at Xu Ping'an's eyes and narrowed, Xu Ping'an's words were a threat to everyone, and if he really played the means, he was afraid that it would be a lose-lose result.

"That's it, 100 million US dollars, you tell us the current research progress" Herbert, chairman of Roche Group, looked at Xu Ping'an and said, which can be regarded as resolving everyone's embarrassment.

"Xu, this price is not low, we are giving you face" Meyer, chairman of Eli Lilly Pharmaceutical Group, looked at Xu Ping'an, Xu Ping'an frowned and thought.

"Yes, raise your hand if you agree to this condition, and if you don't agree, you can withdraw directly, completely withdraw, I can tell you clearly, I will only introduce five or six powerful partners"

"This 100 million US dollars is the information fee, I don't force it, everything is voluntary," Xu Ping'an said very politely.

Your sister, you know that you are going to come here, let us kill each other, you are dreaming, the chairmen of the top ten pharmaceutical groups looked at each other and raised their hands.

A hundred million dollars, a small meaning, we can afford to play.

It's time to call Hanako.

Xu Ping'an pressed the button on the table, and soon Liu Wenjun came in, "I'm here with my frozen red wine, we need to have a drink" Xu Ping'an said directly.

Liu Wenjun nodded and went out, and Xu Ping'an directly picked up ten pieces of paper that had been prepared from the side and handed them to the chairman of the top ten pharmaceutical groups.

"Gentlemen, today we have reached an agreement, we must celebrate, this is the account, after all the funds are in the account, we are moving on to the next step, I will invite you to watch the results" Xu Ping'an said with a smile.

Anyway, he has made a billion dollars, and it is still appropriate to invite everyone to drink a glass of red wine, the ten chairmen looked at Xu Ping'an, who was smiling in front of them, and the thought of slapping Xu Ping'an to death welled up in their hearts.

A billion dollars, it's so light, you're dark.

One by one, they reluctantly left the conference room with the note, handed it over to the assistant to handle it, and came back by themselves, at this time Liu Wenjun and Dalina had already come over with red wine and wine glasses.

Xu Ping'an began to pour wine, eleven cups directly divided this bottle of red wine, each person had a glass, everyone slowly tasted the red wine and chatted, everything will be said when the funds arrive.

"Xu, if we are eleven of us working on this project, we will definitely be able to make this project come out soon, which is good for everyone, isn't it?" Husky, chairman of Sanofi Group, said with a sip of red wine.

"Gentlemen, even if this project breaks through, the sales price will not be low, the profit will be so much, one more person will share, and everyone else will have less profit"

"This is not a project that will pay off with billions of investment, but one that requires continuous investment, with so much investment but no equivalent return."

"Do you think it's a good deal" Xu Ping'an looked at Husky and asked rhetorically, everyone was silent, Xu Ping'an smiled, I just want to provoke you to disagree, and you can't refuse if you know it.

This is a conspiracy.

Ten months all looked at each other with deep meaning, although it showed that it was nothing, but there was more worry in their hearts, Xu Ping'an's words had an impact on everyone, and it was not so easy to resolve.

"Xu, the funds will arrive soon, you can now talk about the results you have achieved," Daniel, chairman of Johnson & Johnson Group, looked at Xu Ping'an and said.

"Daniel, don't worry, we have time, let's have a drink at noon today, take a break, and in the afternoon I invite you to my private theater to watch the video and discuss this matter" Xu Ping'an said with a smile, not leaking.

Large bank transfers can be withdrawn within a certain period of time, this small means I will not be unaware, eat at noon and start talks in the afternoon, this time has definitely passed.

Don't look at the chairman of a large group, no one will hesitate when it is time to turn his face, saying that he doesn't care about 100 million US dollars, and there is absolutely no one in his heart who doesn't care, and turning his face can reduce the loss of 100 million US dollars, I'm afraid he will do it.

Next, everyone talked, secretly clashed, no one took advantage, soon, Xu Ping'an received a notice, the money has arrived, everyone drank red wine and chatted and was beckoned by Xu Ping'an to go to the hotel to eat together.

During the meal, Xu Ping'an said, take a break, and send a car to pick you up at three o'clock in the afternoon.

Xu Ping'an's face was sincere, the chairman of the top ten pharmaceutical groups was collectively despised, you and they are satisfied with the billions of dollars, we have paid $100 million and we haven't seen anything, if the results in the afternoon do not satisfy me, don't blame me for suing you.

After the meal, Tianqi Group arranged a vehicle to send ten chairmen to rest, Xu Ping'an also returned to his office to rest, when it was almost three o'clock, the vehicle went to pick up the ten chairmen, Xu Ping'an also got up, and went directly to the audio-visual room.

The tea and drinks are very complete, Xu Ping'an shook hands with everyone, and everyone sat down, "Gentlemen, the reputation of my Tianqi Group is the highest, and the promised things must be completed to lose money."

"The video will be played soon, which will elaborate on our current research progress" Xu Ping'an looked at everyone after speaking, everyone nodded, Xu Ping'an sat down, and the lights in the room were quickly turned off and dimmed.

The huge screen in front of him began to play the video, the substance extracted from the polyps and this fish has a shelf life, and the aging is very long, if it cannot be fused with the cells in a short time, it will be completely invalid.

The most terrible thing is that the quality of this substance is very difficult to control, it belongs to the uncontrollable range, once it is excessive, it will make the cells show the result of bursting.

There has been no breakthrough in the control of this substance, because this substance is very active, and the uncontrollable nature is too high, and there is no good way to solve this problem.

Not all human cells can accept this substance, and the exclusivity is also very large, and if you want to eliminate this exclusivity, you can't do it without several years of continuous research and cultivation.

The video also shows a cultured cell that has not been infected with 27 cancer cell viruses, which shows how strong the immunity of this cell is.

At the same time, the video also shows experiments in which such cells were transplanted into mice, and as a result, the mice survived for only two days before dying, and according to the results of dissection, they starved to death.

Experiments were carried out on monkeys, sheep, and cows, and a very strong cow survived, but it became very weak, and the presence of this special cell was no longer detected in its body.

Time passed slowly, almost an hour, the video was played, the lights came back on, Xu Ping'an stood up directly, walked a few steps forward and turned to look at everyone.

"Gentlemen, you have now seen the results, this substance is currently uncontrollable, and related experiments still need to be continuously invested, I believe that we will not be able to see the finished product without more than five years."

"Now it's time for you to choose, whether to join or not, free to choose, if you agree to join, we are negotiating a specific cooperation plan, if you don't want to join, you can directly express your position"

"Scientific research is full of uncertainties, no one knows what the results will be, my decision is to continue research and development, no matter how long it takes, it is not a problem" Xu Ping'an looked at everyone and said slowly.

They were all silent, and a lot of information could be seen from the video just now, first, the laboratory was sealed and isolated in five layers, and there was also a vacuum isolation device, which was obviously a huge danger to this project.

Second, the uncertainty is too great, the exclusivity of biological cells takes a long time to transform, and there will be no results in a short period of time, this process will take at least five years, Xu Ping'an did not lie on this point.

Third, the immunity of this special substance to cells is really powerful, and the consequences after fusion are also very terrifying, and this uncontrollable factor also needs a long time of research to resolve, and five years is simply not enough.

Fourth, as mentioned in the video, the project team searched for more than 20 submarine volcanoes in a row, and only found these two organisms in the place where the volcano had just erupted, and the available locations were very scarce, and the raw materials were not so easy to obtain.

Now that the volcano has erupted there, it is still uncertain whether the raw materials will still exist, and if the polyps and small fish of this envoy are all dead, it will be even more difficult to find them, and the time is uncertain.

"Xu, if we join, what conditions do we need?" Denver, chairman of AbbVie Group, asked directly.

"Two billion euros a year to join the research fee, let's see how many people are willing to join in the end, according to the number of shares we are dividing the proportion of shares" Xu Ping'an said directly, it is a bit early to talk about this.

Many people snorted in their hearts, you are planning to use our money to conduct this research, you don't have to invest a penny, but euros, you are really greedy.

"Gentlemen, I know that this matter will not be answered in a short time, and the most important thing now is that there is a very short supply of raw materials, this place has an undersea volcano erupted, and it is uncertain whether those corals and fish will survive."

"If you don't survive, you'll need to find another place to look for it, and you know the pollution of the ocean, and as the pollution deepens, the chances of finding these corals and fish will be lower."

"Therefore, my request is that once you join, two billion euros per year research funding must not be stopped for five years for any reason, and once you withdraw halfway, you must pay three billion euros in compensation"

"These conditions must be written into the contract, and we will act in accordance with the legal contract" Xu Ping'an looked at everyone and said directly, everyone frowned, this condition is harsh enough.

"Gentlemen, don't think that my conditions are harsh, think carefully about how much it will cost and how many dangers it will take to find new coral polyps and small fish creatures."

"There will never be any breakthrough without big investment, and the reason why those researchers are willing to risk their lives is because these polyps and small fish are too difficult to find, and environmental degradation is causing the extinction of these species."

"At the same time, environmental degradation is also overwhelming the living space of human beings, and in order to expand the living space of these polyps and small fish, we must invest heavily in expanding their habitats."

"In this way, do you think the amount I asked for is excessive" Xu Ping'an looked at everyone and added.

Everyone began to think about it, according to Xu Ping'an, this kind of investment is really not big, and there is no hope for sustainable research without big investment, but the uncertainties in this are too great.
