Chapter 534: Give More
"Professor Tian, I've admired my name for a long time!"
After seeing Luo Ning and Tian Lu, Meng Yun, the boss of Kyoto Pharmaceutical Group, first greeted the mayor respectfully, and then stretched out his right hand very enthusiastically, and Tian Lu shook it tightly: "We are in Kyoto together, it stands to reason that we should have visited us a long time ago, but it's a pityγγγγγγ β
I don't know what this Mr. Meng is sorry for, Tian Lu smiled slightly: "It's also my honor to meet the helmsman of Kyoto Pharmaceutical Group." β
Along the way, Tian Lu also had a general understanding of the situation of Kyoto Pharmaceutical Group, which has 30,000 or 40,000 employees and a total capital of less than 30 billion, but its annual sales revenue has exceeded 50 billion Chinese dollars, and it can be regarded as one of the large pharmaceutical companies in China.
But......
"Mr. Meng, Mayor Luo has already told me about your company's thoughts on the road just now."
After everyone sat down, Tian Lu didn't want to say polite words anymore, so he went straight to the point: "I want to ask, how does your company want to cooperate with us?" β
"This γγγγγγ"
Tian Lu's single knife straight into made Meng Yun obviously a little uncomfortable, and after being stunned, his eyes couldn't help but drift towards Luo Ning.
Luo Ning nodded slightly, signaling Meng Yun to simply speak. Although the two didn't talk much along the way, the mayor also found that Tian Lu was different from ordinary scientists. It's hard to tell what's going on for a while, but Luo Ning can be sure of one thing, that is, Tian Lu is definitely not as kind of as others as the mayor, let alone afraid.
After getting Luo Ning's confirmation. Meng Yun gritted his teeth, nodded and smiled: "It's okay, then I'll just say it." Professor Tian, we at Kyoto Pharmaceutical Group Co., Ltd. hope to cooperate with your future biologics, mainly to get the patents of your company's newly developed drugs in the future! Of course, you also know that we have limited financial resources and will certainly not be able to afford hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars, so we want to cooperate with you in another way! β
"The other way?"
Hearing this, Tian Lu's eyes narrowed slightly.
Don't listen to the rest of the story. Instinctive. Tian Lu has already drawn a cross mark in his heart to this Mr. Meng's proposal!
To put it bluntly, Tian Lu is not very interested in developing new drugs themselves, what he is really interested in is money, a lot of money! The huge amount of money brought about by the transfer of patents is the driving force for the development of Tianlu Future Biological Laboratory. It is also a necessary condition to achieve the long-term goal of Tianlu. So even if he hopes to sell those patents that will definitely make money in the future to domestic companies. However, out of practical considerations, in the end, the choice is made according to the principle of maximizing benefits.
The cooperation with Great Wall Pharmaceutical is also based on this principle.
With the increase in the academic status of Tian Lu. Once it reaches a certain level, personal prestige can even offset the lack of sales channels to a certain extent, so in order to be able to establish its own pharmaceutical research and development, production and sales enterprises in the future and obtain the greatest profits, Tian Lu will choose to cooperate with Great Wall Pharmaceutical, ready to accumulate relevant experience and personnel step by step.
But what can Kyoto Pharmaceutical Group's words bring to Taji, or to Future Biotech?
Tian Lu really couldn't think of it.
Being able to sit in the position of chairman of the group company, Meng Yun is naturally a good person, and after seeing Tian Lu's expression at this time, he naturally understood, and it seemed that people didn't take it seriously at all! In fact, if it weren't for Luo Ning's presence today, Meng Yun would probably have been difficult to see Tian Lu, a few days ago he had tried to contact Qian Lele and wanted to talk to the other party, but was politely rejected without thinking.
But think about it, don't say that Tian Lu doesn't have a patent in his hand now, even if he does, why should he talk to you? It will definitely be like last year, just open a bidding meeting!
But even so, Meng Yun would not back down, since he had invited Luo Ning to come forward, he could only harden his head now. After a pause, Meng Yun said very sincerely: "Professor Tian, although the down payment given is definitely not higher than those multinational companies, we can provide a higher post-sales commission!" I know that Great Wall Pharmaceutical once gave a 55% commission, and I can assure you that the proportion given by our Kyoto Pharmaceutical Group will definitely not be less than this number! β
After speaking, seeing Tian Lu's brows, Meng Yun immediately added: "Of course, according to the market capacity of patented drugs, we will also pay the corresponding down payment, please rest assured!" Although Kyoto Pharmaceutical Group can't be compared with those giants, but five or six billion US dollars, I will definitely be able to make up even if I smash the pot and sell iron! β
"Huh?"
At this moment, it was not only Tian Lu, but even Luo Ning looked at Meng Yun in surprise, neither of them expected that this inconspicuous-looking boss would have the same courage as Li ** of Great Wall Pharmaceutical! β
Tian Lu and Luo Ning were surprised, but they didn't know that Meng Yun also sighed again and again in his heart, and the conditions he had prescribed for himself were painful.
Don't look at the big business of Kyoto Pharmaceutical Group, there are tens of thousands of employees alone, but at the end of each year, the profit almost never exceeds 2 billion Chinese dollars! In other words, the down payment that Meng Yun promised Tian Lu was almost equivalent to the net profit of their group company for two years!
But what can he do?
Although the mayor of Kyoto City, Luo Ning, was invited to come forward, but Luo Ning had already made it clear before that he was only responsible for persuasion, and would never explain and pressure the other party to accept!
Meng Yun can also understand this, although Meng Yun is high and powerful, but today, with the improvement of various systems and laws, coupled with the improvement of people's awareness, it is too risky to do such a thing, and second, the field road is definitely not a soft persimmon to be kneaded, not to mention the influence in the academic world, that is, he has just been elected as an academician of the American Academy of Sciences, who wants to mess with him like this without a valid reason?
However, Meng Yun still has to ask for him!
Today, the development of the Kyoto Pharmaceutical Group has reached a bottleneck, and it is no longer possible to increase investment and reduce costs.
In fact, it's not just the Kyoto Pharmaceutical Group. Pharmaceutical companies across China are basically facing such a problem.
This is the inevitable result of the progress of the times and economic development.
Before the nineties of the twentieth century, there was no so-called patent protection system in China, and any drug could be imitated at will, that is, any new drug developed by a giant with huge investment could be imitated by Huaguo's pharmaceutical companies at will, without paying any cost.
But when Huaguo really began to marketize and began to integrate into the world, this road was completely blocked.
Of course. The wave of marketization has brought opportunities for companies with deep capital. So that they can rely on the power of capital and technology to develop rapidly, and quickly grow into a domestic giant with annual sales of tens of billions of yuan.
What are these developments underpinning?
The first is to imitate drugs whose patents have expired and low value-added products, and the second is to rely on the rapid growth of domestic market capacity in recent years!
With the increase in income and the popularization of medical insurance, the backlog of demand from ordinary people in the past many years has completely exploded. No longer sick just drag. There is even a phenomenon of taking medicine indiscriminately when there is a little ailment. Therefore, the pharmaceutical companies are living a fairly nourishing life.
However, this does not mean that these companies will be able to live smoothly all the time.
There will always be bottlenecks in the development of any industry. The bottleneck of Huaguo Pharmaceutical is that it does not have its own core patents, and there can be dozens or even hundreds of products in the market for a drug with one ingredient! So in order to grab the market, they either use a low-price strategy, or simply give rebates to doctors to stimulate sales!
There must be a reason for the occurrence of an ugly phenomenon.
It's just that when this means may allow the company to grow gradually, but when they reach a certain level, they can only play a maintenance role at most. This is just like China's manufacturing industry, which can develop at a high speed in the early and middle periods, because it takes a while to reach saturation, but when the production capacity reaches saturation, his speed will inevitably slow down, and because it is a relatively low-end industry, it may be replaced by a lower-cost country at any time.
Those large pharmaceutical companies in China can even reach 100 billion yuan a year, but how much profit can they have?
For those multinational giants, the annual sales of a drug can reach more than one billion US dollars, and the profit of a drug can be as high as the total profit of a large domestic group company!
That's the power of having core technology!
Those who have a long-term vision cannot fail to see this, so the state will support the research and development of new drugs and give financial and policy support to major state-owned pharmaceutical companies. It was precisely because he saw this that Meng Yun invited the mayor of Kyoto City, just to let Tian Lu calmly listen to his conditions! Because now everyone knows that Tianlu's future biological laboratory is a place for the efficient production of new drugsγγγγγγ
Although he was surprised by Meng Yun's courage, under the expectant gaze of both him and Luo Ning, Tian Lu quickly shook his head and said, "Mr. Meng, I'm sorry, although the conditions you offered are very tempting, I have to say that this is far from enough!" β
Hearing Tian Lu's last words, Meng Yun and Luo Ning's faces suddenly changed!
Without waiting for Meng Yun to say anything, Tian Lu went on to explain: "Yes, the share ratio you gave is indeed very high, and those multinational giants will never agree to me, but even so, how much can these proportions of sales share?" You don't have an international market, and even in the domestic market, you are facing fierce competition from multinational giants! If I were to judge, your 50 percent sales share might not be as much as the 10 percent, or even 5 percent, sales share of the giants, so what's the point? β
Tian Lu's words were ruthless, but although Luo Ning was a little unimpressed, Meng Yun immediately fell silent.
Luo Ning is a layman, but Meng Yun is not a layman.
No matter how good the product is, it also needs to have strong marketing strength as a guarantee, and the products of those multinational giants enter the Chinese market, except for the pioneers, which one has not gained a firm foothold after several years or even more than ten years of hard work? Even so, the giants still have to carry out all kinds of marketing and hold all kinds of academic activities.
Compared with them, the inherent weakness of domestic enterprises is too obvious.
After saying these words, Tian Lu shook his head again, and didn't think about anything more. Emotionally speaking, of course, he hopes to cooperate with domestic enterprises, just like last year's Great Wall Pharmaceutical. But this is not a play after all, but a huge amount of money that makes people's hearts beat! Whether it is for the development of future creatures or for the realization of his future ideals, Tian Lu cannot be emotional.
"I can only say I'm sorry."
Tian Lu sighed secretly.
Perhaps, he can only wait until the pharmaceutical company that Tian Lu himself organized is established, and then he will consider putting these patents in China, and then promote them externally with his strong capital and academic status.
However, just when Tian Lu felt a trace of apology in his heart, Meng Yun, who had been bowing his head and contemplating, suddenly raised his head and said with an extremely solemn face: "Professor Tian, I understand your concerns, and I also understand that the price we pay may indeed be unsatisfactory, but what if we pay more?"
