"You, you!" was asked by Shakru, Hoffman was speechless, because as a pharmaceutical giant like Bayer, what he is most afraid of is that his reputation will be ruined, and he has been attacked a lot by refusing to produce eflornithine before, but he can barely explain it with no profit, but now he not only refuses to produce but also refuses to sell and does not let others produce, which cannot be explained!

So after thinking about it for two days, Hoffman asked his secretary, who had just finished his investigation, "Tony, have you investigated the background of this Indian?"

Secretary Tony nodded and reported: "Well, it has been found out, this Shakru Pandit is actually a drug dealer who takes advantage of the loopholes in India and China's drug purchasing policies to resell Indian generic drugs, but he is indeed very shrewd, so the business is very large, and he is also a well-known treasure hunt expert in India." ”

Hearing this introduction, Hoffman felt even more confused, and asked with a frown: "Doesn't the drug dealer and treasure hunting expert have a background in charity?"

Tony thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, I've never heard of him doing any charity!"

"Then why would he buy something like eflornithine that is not destined to make money?" Hoffman muttered to himself, puzzled.

"I don't know, but with what I know about this man so far, he's definitely not going to be in the business of losing money!" Tony guessed.

"But the problem now is that I don't know what he is going to do with eflornithine, but unfortunately there is not enough time, otherwise he should buy the people around him to spy on it!" Hoffman said with some regret.

"Can't we hold on for a little longer?" Tony suggested.

Hoffman shook his head and said: "It seems that it can't be done, this Pandit has been contacting those damn charities and media reporters lately, once he gets this out, it will be too big a blow to our Bayer's reputation, and I can't explain it to the board of directors, since the compound is already destined to give up, why not use him to make a final profit?"

Tony sighed and said, "Then I can only try to sell a little more!"

So after a board meeting and bargaining, Shakru finally bought the patent for eflornithine from Bayer for $3 million.

But just two days after the transaction was closed, the R&D director suddenly stumbled to Hoffman's office and said to him excitedly: "Boss, is it too late for eflornithine to cancel the deal with that Indian now?"

"Cancel the deal, why cancel, is there anything new?" Hoffman had a bad premonition!

Sure enough, the director nodded and replied, "That's right, the function of eflornithine has indeed made a major discovery. ”

"What did you find? Is there a special effect on other diseases?" asked Hoffman with a nervous expression.

The director shook his head and replied, "That's not true, eflornithine is only effective for African sleeping sickness pathologically. ”

"And what are you talking about the big discovery?" asked Hoffman, puzzled.

"We found that eflornithine has a very significant effect on inhibiting facial hair growth in women, so we ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Hoffman couldn't help but exclaim, "What?!

"That's right, it can indeed be developed into cosmetics, and the market for this area is much bigger than African sleeping sickness!"

"That's not just a lot, it's a world of difference! Women are willing to spend as much as they want for beauty! Oh, why didn't you find out about this sooner?" hoffman complained.

The director replied with some grievances: "Actually, we originally gave up on eflornithine, but didn't we hear that you said that there was an Indian who wanted to buy it, so we wanted to see if there was anything we ignored about eflornithine, and then we made this discovery, but to be honest, we didn't think about cosmetics before!"

Hoffman was right when he thought about it, Bayer is a pharmaceutical group, not a cosmetics group, who can usually think in this regard? It was a miracle that they could find out this time, but it was a little late.

But even so, Hoffman felt that he could still fight for it, so he instructed his secretary: "Tony, go talk to that Indian and see if you can buy eflornithine back?"

Tony asked with some hesitation: "But boss, go to him to buy it back at this time, he will definitely not sell it to us at the original price, and do you say that he already knows the function of eflornithine in cosmetics?"

"I can't say for sure, but we have to try, in case he's really just a caring person, and then we can promise him a few batches a year to deal with those poor Africans." Hoffman reassured the secretary.

"I hope so!" Tony reluctantly agreed, and then said to the director, "By the way, Mr. Bartos, you must let the research team keep it a secret, otherwise it would be ridiculous if this Indian got information from us!"

"Rest assured, our team has always done a great job of keeping secrets!"

When Tony came to Modu to find Shaklu, he was looking for someone to do an experiment on the stability of eflornithine in inhibiting the growth of female facial hair, after all, although he knew in his heart that this must be no problem, but without the experimental data of professional institutions, he could not convince those cosmetics groups.

Shakru was surprised to see Tony coming to him, so he asked him curiously, "Mr. Tony, do you have anything to do with me?

"Well, that's not it, but we want to be able to buy the patent rights for eflornithine back!" Tony replied with some embarrassment.

"What? You're going to buy back eflornithine? Did I hear me right?" asked Shakru, surprised.

"You heard it right, we do want to buy back eflornithine!" replied Tony, stiffly.

"What are you Bayer doing here, I just sold it yesterday, and I want to buy it back today, isn't this a blind toss!" Although Shakru was ridiculing in his mouth, he was basically sure in his heart that Bayer had discovered other uses of eflornithine, otherwise how could he be willing to come to himself to buy it back without shame?

PS: I accidentally saw the skeleton elf's new book "Cloud Dome: Future Breakpoint", and I was surprised to find that now the great gods have begun to write a novel that will be completed in 200,000 words?
