Chapter 798: Ambush

"Let's go out for a walk. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info "There was substantial progress in the negotiations, and Yang Rui got out of the Mercedes Benz and said to Frankie, who was almost out of breath.

Frankie showed a relieved expression and hurriedly said, "Great, I can't move my legs anymore." ”

Yang Rui smiled and said, "Call Arnold." ”

"Good. Frankie turned back to the gates of the Great Wall Hotel.

Yang Rui turned around and woke up Grace, who was asleep because of boredom, and said, "We're going to walk for a while, continue the previous topic, do you want to go back first?"

β€œok。 Grace rolled over and went back to sleep.

After a while, the driver trotted over and sat back in the cab.

Yang Ruisai gave him a $2 bill and said with a smile: "Are you drunk?"

"It's okay, I smoked hard at the beginning, and then I smoked a cigarette, and I didn't dare to inhale it again. I smoked for the first time until I didn't want to. The driver smirked twice, carefully took the dollar, put it in his pocket, noticed Yang Rui's gaze, and smiled embarrassedly: "Thank you, Mr. Yang, I have to hand over the foreign exchange to my wife to buy a TV." ”

Yang Rui will tip every time he uses Jielizen's car, and it is given in US dollars, which makes Jielizen's drivers flock to it, they work in foreign companies, although the salary is high, but it is two or three hundred yuan, occasionally up to 500 yuan, and the US dollar is even more rare to see - foreign companies also like to send RMB to employees, because the cost of their exchange is very high, and RMB is more cost-effective in China.

In contrast, although foreigners who take a car have a habit of tipping, this is not the case when they take a company car, unless there are additional requirements for the driver.

This Mercedes-Benz is one of the two best cars in China, usually either carrying senior Chinese officials, or letting company executives ride, only Yang Rui, who is neither an executive nor a leader, will tip, and it is to tip in dollars, which is still difficult to encounter in China.

Yang Rui sat and waited for Arnold to come over, took a stretched posture in the back seat, and chatted by the way: "Didn't you buy a TV when you got married?"

"I can't get a TV ticket, and to be honest, I don't have any money. When my brother got married, the family begged my grandfather to sue my grandmother to get a handful of industrial vouchers, bought two red flags, and added the money to paint the house and make furniture, and the family was emptied. When I got married, I told my wife, we are the second in the family, grandma doesn't love uncle or uncle, don't expect to get three more things, if you want to marry, we will do it, if you don't want to marry, I will be single. My wife is good, and as soon as the furnishing is wrapped in clothes, she will be married. "The driver said with a little pride. In the 80s, it was not popular to give a bride price, at least not in the city, but the cost of buying household goods was not low, just to hire a carpenter to make furniture at home, you had to spend a lot of money, and the price of any industrial product was much higher than that of labor.

Yang Rui asked curiously: "Hongqi is a bicycle?"

"The production of the second factory of the flying pigeon is not as good as the flying pigeon car, but it is cheaper than twenty or thirty yuan, it is easy to have a small problem, such as my brother's car, the patent leather plated on it is taken off, my sister-in-law got the car, and wrapped a layer of cloth on the beam, the paint did not fall off, the wheel was crooked twice, so that there was no accident. The driver put his hands on the steering wheel and looked in the rearview mirror to speak, which is also a posture that foreigners have trained, but its content is a native of China.

"It's a quality issue. Yang Rui said.

"Who said no,Otherwise,The money I saved is enough to buy a domestic TV,I told my wife,This is a big item,It will be used for a lifetime,I'd rather spend twice the money,I can't use it for seven or eight years and it will break。 It just so happens that I can get some dollars and exchange some foreign exchange coupons when the time comes, and I plan to go to Tianjin to buy a TV set from Toshiba with the sailors. ”

"Japanese TV?"

"Germany's is better, you can't afford it. My colleague bought one, and it was very magnificent. The driver sighed, laughed again in a flash, and said: "It's better than the domestic ones bought by the people in our hospital, his TV, he has to hold the antenna at every turn, and the little couple can't sit together to watch a TV, they have to have someone standing in front of them, like a punishment station in the school." The driver seemed to remember this scene and couldn't help but laugh.

"The quality of domestic goods is indeed ......" Yang Rui saw Frankie and Arnold coming, and did not say any more, but remembered the situation of the domestic pharmaceutical factory in his head. When he was studying for a master's degree, he often followed his mentor to run the pharmaceutical factory, and at that time, he listened to the old technician chatting about the "troubles" of the pharmaceutical factory in China around the nineties, such as the most common preparation process, due to the manual operation, mechanized or semi-mechanized equipment is not proficient, and the error in the weight and content of the tablets made is very large, and there is a serious gap of more than 20%.

A 20% error is not an error, assuming that the active ingredient content of a drug weighing 5 grams is 50 mg, and the 20% weight error means that its actual weight may be 6 grams, and the average active ingredient content per gram may be 12 mg, so the actual active ingredient of a drug may be 72 mg, so it may be 44% higher than the actual dosage On the other hand, if it is reduced, the actual active ingredient of a pill may be at least 32 milligrams, which is not enough to eat the dead, but the difficulty of curing the disease is obviously greatly increased.

The driver also saw Frankie and Arnold, and hurriedly got out of the car, walked around from the back of the car, and helped Yang Rui open the rear door.

Yang Rui bowed his head and got out of the car, shook hands with Frankie and Arnold respectively, and told the driver to send Grace back safely, and translated his words to the two by the way.

Arnold glanced at Grace, who was sleeping soundly in the back seat, and smiled, "I really envy Miss Grace, I often have to take sleeping pills to fall asleep." ”

"Grace adheres to her beliefs and is straightforward with others, so she can naturally sleep peacefully. Yang Rui smiled and blinked, so as not to make the topic too aggressive.

Arnold laughed and said, "Yang Rui, I am also very straightforward with you. ”

"I'm sure Frankie is a straightforward guy, you're just an Englishman, polite and gentlemanly, but not straightforward. Yang Rui made no secret of his opinion about the two, he really didn't like to talk to Arnold, he preferred to socialize with Frankie, and I believe that Jielikang would also notice this.

"I'm disappointed that I didn't show you my best side, but I'm an Englishman. Arnold laughed again as he spoke, and then said to the driver, "Please be sure to deliver our English beauty, Miss Grace, to her destination safely." ”

Yang Rui translated this sentence for the driver and took out his wallet.

"Please let me tip. Arnold quickly took out a 10 pound card and gave it to the driver, saying, "Thank you." ”

The driver works in Jielizen, naturally he has been exposed to the pound, and knows that it is worth more than the dollar, and he was pleasantly surprised to see the "10" on it.

Yang Rui smiled at the driver: "It seems that Nightingale is still gentler than Jefferson." ”

The Β£10 reverse portrait is Nightingale, and the $2 front portrait is Jefferson, hence the saying.

The driver was so excited that someone slept in his car every day.

Frankie understood Nightingale and Jefferson in Chinese, and said with a smile: "Nightingale would definitely be very happy if he knew that there was a genius scientist like Yang Rui and didn't care about personal interests." ”

"No one doesn't care about personal gain. Even if it is a compliment, Yang Rui does not accept this stubble.

"If it were for personal gain, I believe that no one, at least no one at this time, would spend time and energy, especially a lot of research funding, to risk drug development for thalassemia. You know, all countries have to learn from the Soviet Union for the development of drugs for rare diseases. Arnold's tone was sincere. It is impossible to judge what a person thinks or says, but his actions reveal what he thinks and thinks. As Arnold said, in the 84th year, scientists developing drugs for rare diseases are rare. Although the Rare Disease Act has been introduced, this does not mean that rare disease drugs have become profitable immediately, on the contrary, the introduction of the bill is only because the problem of rare diseases has become more serious, and the profit prospects of rare disease drugs have become more and more bleak, forcing some countries and institutions to start considering the means of state-owned enterprise investment and even executive orders.

Of course, as long as drugs for rare diseases can be marketed, they can still be profitable, and the problem is that the profits are too low - the development of any drug is high-risk, and the high-risk threshold makes it necessary to have extremely high profits to have the value of developing new drugs. Especially pure original medicine!

Yang Rui did a job where the risk was disproportionate to the profit, in fact, as the developer of the original drug, he took most of the risk, and the future of the drug has become brighter since the animal experiments were passed. Although it is likely that deferiprone will not be able to become a blockbuster drug, by the stage of clinical trials, its risks and profits have returned to normal, and even because the clinical candidate has a very high score, its risk is lower than that of ordinary original drugs, and the profits are comparable, thus becoming profitable.

Pharmaceutical companies, like insurance companies, are playing a mathematical game.

From the perspective of personal interests, Arnold cannot understand Yang Rui, which is why he has always stayed away from direct negotiations. He didn't know how to negotiate with such a Yang Rui.

Yang Rui just said two sentences indifferently and modestly.

He found Grace's way of admiration more interesting than Arnold's.

"It's not just ferriprone that's been spent on time and effort, and a lot of research dollars have been spent, it's coenzyme Q10 and its catalyst. Yang Rui pulled the topic back and said, "At this time, their prices should be enough to repay us for the time, effort and research funds we spend, otherwise, the laboratory will not be able to continue to operate." ”

"I can understand that. Arnold smiled, suddenly looked up and said, "The clouds in Beijing City are beautiful. ”

Yang Rui turned his head and saw that the west was already a scene of burning clouds, half red and half yellow, covering the sky above the building, as if there was a sense of crisis under the city, and a sense of leisure in the afternoon with strong tea.

"Let's go to an open place to see, well, by the way, how about another meal, how about boiling?" Yang Rui took the initiative to invite.

"The stew was good. Frankie gave Verygood a thumbs up.

The three of them walked in parallel, in the direction of the burning clouds, aimlessly.

After chatting for a while as usual, when the three of them sat on a chair outside the door of a boiled restaurant, Yang Rui launched a surprise attack: "I hope to introduce a batch of advanced pharmaceutical machinery and equipment, to a complete set of products, preferably second-hand, but the condition is good, in terms of price, I can give some, the total price is less than 18 million US dollars, plus the down payment of 10 million US dollars in cash, and 2% of the sales share, we can be considered a deal." For example, for glass-lined reaction tanks, Hanjiang Pharmaceutical Factory introduced a batch of 4,000 liters and 2,000 liters of products made in Dietridge in France, if I remember correctly, the 4,000-liter set was imported at $68,000, and the two sets of 2,000 liters were about $60,000 each. You give me two sets of 4,000 liters of second-hand goods, as long as the full volume of the jar is guaranteed to be more than 4,000 liters, the jacket volume is more than 600 liters, and the motor power is about 7 kilowatts, I will take it at 50,000 US dollars. ”

Arnold listened to Yang Rui's first half of what he said and was about to refute, but when he heard the second half of his words, his eyes were already at a loss.

It's true that he works in a pharmaceutical company, but how can he possibly know the specific specifications of a specific device, let alone the price.

Yang Rui came prepared, he had come into contact with a lot of design drawings of pharmaceutical factories before, and after a little study, he could get a good configuration, and the ambush began, that is, he talked eloquently: "If you want a glass-lined reaction tank, I want a graphite condenser, a glass scrubber, and a 200-liter glass tube and the corresponding reflux system." ”

Arnold's face is capitalized "What"!

"The mill and screening unit are 80 kilograms per hour and 500 kilograms per hour respectively. In my impression, the No. 3 Pharmaceutical Factory bought a set from Polmann, Belgium, the mill cost 60,000 US dollars, the screening machine cost 14,900 US dollars, both using 16 kilowatt motors, one speed 3000, one speed 1500, I still get a 7% discount to get the same level of second-hand goods, the mill is 40,000 US dollars, and the screening machine is 10,000 US dollars. Yang Rui took out a piece of paper from his pocket, wrote down what he wanted, and said: "I put together a set of second-hand equipment according to seven folds, for Jielikang, it is half price, 18 million US dollars of equipment, you actually only spent 9 million, counting the cash down payment of 10 million US dollars, and 2% of the sales share, the total is actually more than 20 million US dollars, enough for you to pay to Jielikang." ”

"I'll have to think about it. Arnold was a little moved.

"I'll give you an hour, and I won't wait for it. When Yang Rui first contacted Arnold, the latter made an offer like this.

Arnold smiled wryly twice, nodded and went to call.

Frankie breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that his work had been fruitful, and sighed: "The key to the problem lies with the equipment." ”

"And deferiprone too. Yang Rui got up and said, "I'll also go and make a call." ”

"You're going to talk about the authorization to remove ferrite, now?"

"We're going to talk about it anyway. ”

"Where?"

"It's good here, the king is quite magnificent. Yang Rui pointed to the second word of the signboard of "Lao Wang Marinated Restaurant".

French didn't expect Yang Rui to have this trick, thinking of the scene of a group of Japanese and Nordic people surrounding this oil-stained stewed restaurant, and couldn't help but secretly shout to Arnold, "I'm sorry", no matter how polite the old gentleman, in this kind of place, I'm afraid I can't hold it.
