Chapter 530: Breaking the Contract
"Mr. Hans, you are a partner of our Mayo Clinic, so I won't go around the bush with you, and don't sign a contract with Lin Yao Public Hospital to purchase meningitis granules, otherwise you will definitely lose your life, and you will also risk going to jail."
"Huh? It's so serious, what's going on? ”
Catherine said with a serious expression: "As far as I know, the popular Chinese patent medicine in this exhibition is developed and designed by Rainbow Hospital, which not only firmly grasps the formula and production technology of granules, but also applies for patent technology protection...... Although Lin Yao Public Hospital got the formula, it did not master the key technology of the pharmaceutical, and most importantly, it did not get the authorization of Rainbow Hospital.
Mr. Hans, you should understand the consequences of infringement, right? ”
"Huh? That's exactly what happened! The foreign pharmacist named Hans was immediately furious: "Bastard, the dean surnamed Duan actually lied to me, I went to him to theorize." ”
Catherine hurriedly asked, "What?" Looks like you've signed a contract? ”
"Initialed the letter of intent!" Hans looked depressed: "I am also preparing to report to the company's headquarters and plan to increase the purchase quota...... Dear Catherine, thank you for the timely reminder that allowed me to avoid a major loss. ”
"You're welcome, in fact, this inside information is my good friend Zhang Junhao, Dr. Zhang told me." Catherine said quietly.
"Doctor Zhang?" Hans was interested: "New friends you met in China?" ”
"Well, I'll introduce you to you, and you can go to Duan Di...... He has to give you an explanation. Catherine said inclammatically.
"Yes, he has to give me an explanation!" Hans huffed away.
In this way, Catherine shuttled through the exhibition, but whenever she saw the foreign pharmacists she knew, she would always remind them "kindly".
Soon, a large wave of foreign pharmacists gathered in front of the booth of Lin Yao Public Hospital. Kong Chengwen, who received the news, came in person, and his mood was indescribably excited.
As the person in charge of Lin Yao Public Hospital, Duan Di is also very happy, it has been proved that their marketing is very effective, and they have attracted so many foreign pharmaceutical companies.
Because of the large area of foreign pharmaceutical companies. Some domestic pharmacists also came over, and for a while, Duan Di's booth was very lively.
"Old Duan, you've done a good job, I'll celebrate you when I get back." Kong Chengwen said with a smile.
Duan Di's face was a little proud, but in front of the leader, he still said very modestly: "A little achievement is nothing!" ”
Duan Di and Kong Chengwen were complacent, and suddenly the translator's face changed greatly. With a frightened face, he walked over to Duan Di and said, "Dean, he ...... They're going to ...... They're going to break the covenant! ”
"What, break the contract? Who will break the covenant and what covenant? For a while, Duan Di's brain was a little short-circuited.
The interpreter at the hospital took a deep breath and tried to calm his mind, but he still stuttered a little as he spoke: "Dean, Hans. Mr. Hans said...... He wants to break the covenant with us...... He's going to take back the agreement he initialed before! ”
"This ...... You ask him, what's going on? Why the backtracking? Duan Di was a little angry. How are these foreign devils capricious, don't they say that foreigners are very abided by the spirit of the contract?
"I'll come." Kong Chengwen also saw some clues, walked over a few steps, and communicated with Hans in fluent English: "Mr. Hans, may I ask why you want to break the contract?" ”
Hans didn't know Kong Chengwen, but he admired his English accent. It's a very authentic London sound, and there is no barrier to communication.
"Sir, we have just received news that the neonatal meningitis granules provided by your hospital are not worthy of the name, and they are ...... There is also infringement involved. Hans said seriously: "Our company doesn't want to get into a lawsuit because of this. ”
Kong Chengwen frowned and said, "How can it be infringing?" There is no such thing at all...... Mr. Hans. I am an official of the Chinese government, and I can tell you very responsibly that the neonatal meningitis granules from Lin Yao Public Hospital are absolutely fine, and you can purchase them boldly and with confidence. ”
"You're an official?" Hans was slightly surprised, he could speak English so fluently, it could be seen that he was also a scholar-type official.
However, Hans was not convinced by his assurances.
In the eyes of foreigners, the law is more credible.
The biggest difference between a foreign businessman and a domestic businessman is that the latter is in awe of officials.
Kong Chengwen nodded and said: "That's right, I am the official in charge of health care, so I can make a promise to you, the neonatal meningitis granules produced by Lin Yao Public Hospital are absolutely fine!" ”
With the assistance of the translator, Duan Di also came over and patted his chest and promised: "Mr. Hans, you see if this will work, we can make another three percentage points on the original price." ”
Hans shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it still won't work." ”
Duan Di was anxious and hurriedly said: "Mr. Hans, I think you may not know our national conditions, but in our place, there is no such thing as infringement. ”
When Hans heard this, he secretly despised it in his heart, as a country that has joined the WTO for many years, it is really ridiculous that you, a government official, are embarrassed to say that there is no infringement.
"That's true." Kong Chengwen also echoed with a cheeky face.
Hans spread his hands and said, "Well, even if what you say is true, the question is, can you really produce qualified neonatal meningitis granules?" As far as I know, you have the formulation, but you lack the most critical pharmaceutical technology, and I know that the samples you have launched have failed. ”
"I'll answer that question." Kong Chengwen said: "Pharmaceutical technology is not a problem, we can share it. ”
"Relying on executive orders?" Hans asked.
Duan Di smiled and said, "That's natural, we are a state-owned enterprise." ”
The translator answered Hans in English at the same time.
Hans genuinely sighed that this is a magical country...... However, he still plans to break the contract and take 10,000 steps back, even if they can really ask for pharmaceutical technology, even if China really doesn't care about infringement, but I heard Catherine say that Rainbow Hospital is a patent technology protection applied for from an international organization.
Presumably, the influence of the bureaucratic politician in front of him is not strong enough to ignore the sanctions of international patent protection.
"Mr. Hans, I believe the doubts in your mind should be gone now, right? Hehe, why don't we give another discount, and you can add some orders? ”
Duan Di was relieved to see that Hans was no longer talking.
Kong Chengwen also said reservedly: "Mr. Hans." We will treat you as the biggest VIP, and in the future cooperation, our concession policy will make you so excited that you can't sleep. ”
Duan Di smiled, and said in his heart that the leader's spoken English was really good.
Hans secretly thought to himself, if he really wants to cooperate with you blind people, he must be so frightened that he can't sleep.
"I'm sorry both. I think I'm going to break the contract. Hans said earnestly.
"Why is that?" Duan Di panicked, why didn't this foreigner enter the oil and salt? The explanation is explained, the promise is promised, what is he going to do?
Duan Di asked the interpreter to tell Hans: "The price is negotiable. ”
Hans is an international pharmaceutical company, with a large purchase volume and a lot of influence. Duan Di is well versed in the way of marketing, and such customers must be seized, otherwise the follow-up role model power is endless.
Hans hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's not about the price. Both, with all due respect, I don't think I can accept it even if you give it away for nothing. ”
Considering the presence of bureaucrats on the other side, Hans explained: "As far as I know, the patent protection of Rainbow Hospital is applied for by an international institution, and it is applicable all over the world. ”
"Our company is an international group, and we don't want to get into a lawsuit because of infringement." Hans said: "The international community. In particular, Western countries have strict and inadequate measures for patent protection. I'm not exaggerating. Even if you give me a discount today, my company will be ruined. ”
"Mr. Hans, you're really overthinking, things aren't as complicated as you think." Kong Chengwen took over Hans's topic and said: "I can report to the leadership now and ask Rainbow Hospital to revoke the patent protection." ”
Hans's face was a little ugly, and he said hesitantly, "Your Excellency." Patent protection is not revoked if you want to, these things have relevant formal procedures and legal protection, and it is not as simple as you think. ”
Duan Di was in a hurry, he felt that this foreigner had a problem with his brain, and the big thing was so serious. We've officially vouched for you, what are you worried about?
Kong Chengwen also felt that Hans was a little unreasonable, his brain was tendoned, and it was really difficult to communicate.
No matter what the two of them thought and persuaded him, Hans had already made a decision in his heart that he must break the contract, and it was too dangerous to do business in partnership with such a person who had no spirit of contract and did not understand the law.
"Dean Duan, please give me the initialed agreement." Hans said.
"This ......" Duan Di simply played a scoundrel: "The contract has been signed, and the contract cannot be broken without a valid reason, and even if the contract is broken, you have to pay us the contract breaking fee." ”
Duan Di was also angry at this time.
Hans was even more angry, Duan Di actually said that he couldn't break the contract without a valid reason? , What kind of person is this, you are a company that produces infringing drugs, and you can still say such things with confidence? I don't know shame.
Moreover, Hans has received news from Catherine that Rainbow Hospital will definitely not sell the key technology of the pharmaceutical.
In other words, the promise made by the drug provider of Lim Yao Public Hospital is a blank check.
To put it deeper, Lin Yao Public Hospital is fraud.
Duan Di said to the translator: "Tell the foreigner to pay the contract breaking fee first, otherwise don't think about taking the initialed agreement." ”
Hearing this, Hans sneered and said, "Dean Duan, since you have to be like this, then I'm not welcome...... I don't want to initialize the agreement, but I hope you can deliver the goods on time, otherwise...... You just wait for the compensation......"
Kong Chengwen said with a straight face: "Mr. Hans, may I ask if you have heard any rumors?" ”
Hans did not deny it: "My partner did get some inside information. ”
"It must be Rainbow Hospital doing something!" Duan Di complained to the leader: "Leader, Rainbow Hospital is too despicable, you must call the shots for us!" ”
"Bastard!" Kong Chengwen said angrily: "This kind of competition is too inferior!" ”
"Leader, I suggest that you immediately have an admonishment conversation with the person in charge of Rainbow Hospital, so that they can withdraw these inferior methods, and stop spreading false news at the exhibition, confusing the public, and affecting the good situation!" Duan Di said: "They are like this, they are clearly demolishing the stage!" ”
"Mr. Hans, although we have some differences, I think you have been bewitched by someone else...... I can assure you that we will definitely deliver the goods within the time specified in the contract, otherwise we will compensate you according to the regulations. Kong Chengwen said.
Hans was a little anxious, he had previously said that Lin Yao Public Hospital could not deliver the goods on time, it was just a hypothetical threat, hoping that they would realize the seriousness of the problem.
Who knows how bold these people are, even in such a situation, they still pat their chests to make guarantees.
He was a little worried that if they could really deliver the goods on time, he would be the one who would be unlucky.
The punishment for infringement in the international community is very serious, and when the time comes, Rainbow Hospital will sue, and according to the amount of contract signed today, he will have to pay at least 300 million to 500 million US dollars in compensation to Rainbow Hospital.
That's a lot of money.
Hans really couldn't figure out what these people were thinking.
Infringing products are illegal, how can they not understand such a simple truth?
In order to prevent accidents, Hans said firmly again: "I'm sorry, I still have to break the contract!" ”
"What? You ......"
Duan Di and Kong Chengwen were really angry, this foreigner was really unreasonable.
Kong Chengwen waved his hand and said: "Old Duan, give him the contract, we are not uncommon for such people...... What a thing! ”
Duan Di glared at Hans, asked the assistant to take out the contract, threw it over, and asked the interpreter to tell Hans: "We are not rare, we disdain to cooperate with someone like him." ”
Hanston was dumbfounded when he got the initialed agreement, he didn't expect it to be so smooth, and they actually threw the contract over.
Hans had originally planned to have the company's lawyer come over and break the contract through legal means, but who knew it would be so simple?
Hans was even more confused, and really couldn't figure out how these people were doing.
In fact, Hans also thinks too much, Kong Chengwen, Duan Di and the gang act like this, in the final analysis, there is only one reason, that is, the difference between a society governed by man and a society ruled by law.
It can also be said that the national conditions are the result of the three views.
"Thank you, two generous gentlemen!" After Hans got the contract, he expressed his gratitude to Kong Chengwen and Duan Di.
"Let's go!"
"Leave now!"
"We don't want to see you again!"
Kong Chengwen and Duan Di waved their hands and signaled Hans to get out of here, they didn't want to look at such an unreasonable foreign devil again.
Hans didn't care about their attitude, he raised the initialed agreement in his hand, turned around and left, his face relaxed.
Those foreign pharmacists who were still watching looked at Hans's distant back with envy.
"We're going to break the covenant too!" Suddenly, a neat voice erupted from among the onlookers of foreign pharmacists.
"Huh?"
"What's going on?"
Duan Di and Kong Chengwen were dumbfounded again. (To be continued.) )
