Chapter 928: Selling Medicine at a Sky-high Price (Second Update!) )
Xiao Yuan reacted quickly and immediately replied: "Use the penicillin formula in exchange for the equipment and shells we urgently need?" ”
Li Hao affirmed: "Last time Jack told me that penicillin has attracted the attention of Americans, and many pharmaceutical manufacturers have approached him, hoping to buy production formulas and technologies from us. ”
"These pharmaceutical manufacturers all have government backgrounds, and it shouldn't be a problem to exchange formulas for some money, production equipment, and ammunition that we urgently need."
"That's it, I'll contact Jack as soon as possible and ask him to inform those pharmaceutical manufacturers to come to us to negotiate."
The Americans were very efficient, to be precise, they should be very eager for penicillin, and in less than three days, Jack appeared in the secret conference room of the pharmaceutical factory with three people.
"Director Li, it's incredible, I didn't expect you Chinese to develop such a powerful drug under such backward technology. We Americans attach great importance to intellectual property rights, as long as you are willing to buy us the production formula and technology, we will definitely give you a satisfactory price. The American who came in was obviously a master negotiator, and when he saw Li Hao, he went straight to the point, wanting to grasp the initiative in the negotiation through this method.
He had seen this kind of trick during the last bazooka negotiations.
So his face was not shocked, and he asked calmly: "I don't know what kind of price you are willing to offer?" ”
"You know, now that all countries are at war, the huge effect of penicillin on the seriously wounded will definitely make countries buy this drug in large quantities."
"Once you have a penicillin production formula and quickly produce it to the market, penicillin will definitely bring you great benefits."
"We have calculated that according to the current production technology, the cost of producing one penicillin is two oceans."
"Your equipment in the United States is more advanced, and it will definitely be able to bring down the cost."
"If you sell it at the price of five oceans and one piece, that's twice the profit."
"Even if we sell the production technology for 50 million dollars, you only need to produce 30 million penicillin to recoup the cost!"
Three Americans were frightened.
Staring at the big eyes, he retorted: "No, Director Li, fifty million dollars is simply impossible. ”
"Penicillin is not a panacea, it only works for specific conditions."
"Even if the whole world is at war now, it is impossible to consume 30 million penicillin in just one or two years."
"At this price, we won't necessarily be able to recoup our costs in ten years?"
"If you can reduce the price of $50 million, it's about the same."
The pace of negotiation is very fast, and in the blink of an eye, it enters the bargaining stage.
Li Hao shook his head and replied with a serious face: "No, five million dollars is too little, if it is equivalent to the ocean, it will be 10 million." ”
"Take Chongqing Pharmaceutical Factory as an example, excluding those sold to Chongqing and the Eighth Route Army at a price below cost, our daily retail sales can reach up to 2,000 pieces per day, which is a profit of 6,000 oceans, which is 180,000 a month and more than 2 million a year."
This is only the profit of retail in China, if the military also sells it to them at the retail price, China's profit alone can exceed 10 million oceans a year.
"Other battlefields in the world are more tragic than our China, and there are more wounded, and the annual profit is at least 30 million oceans."
"In this way, I want you to make a year's profits, and after a year, the money you earn through penicillin will be your own."
The Americans brought in by Jack were silent.
They didn't expect Li Hao to know so much about this world war.
Li Hao is right, other battlefields in the world are more tragic than China's battlefields.
Because of the massive use of heavy artillery, aircraft, tanks...... There are also more wounded on the battlefield.
Sell penicillin to them, and the profit will definitely exceed 30 million oceans a year.
However, just recognizing the conditions put forward by Li Hao is not bargaining, and it is not the style of the Americans.
Even though the price was already very cheap, they still decided to press it a little more to see if they could make a deal at a lower price.
There was silence for two full minutes before the American in the lead spoke.
"Ten million US dollars, if Director Li agrees to this price, we can close the deal now."
This time it was Li Hao's turn to be silent.
Judging from the performance of the other party just now, the price of 15 million US dollars can also be traded.
But that price must be their bottom line, and when the time comes, they will definitely not agree to other requirements.
If you give them five million dollars.
In the face of huge profits, they will certainly agree to their next demands, even if some of them will be risky.
Thinking of this, Li Hao made a decisive decision: "It's only 10 million US dollars, but I have a few requirements." ”
"After selling the formula to you, I promise not to sell it to anyone else, but we can produce it ourselves."
"Our technology in China is limited, and a war is breaking out, even if the production capacity is doubled, it will not affect your sales and profits."
"And you have a technical advantage, you can reduce costs through advanced technology, so your cost advantage is also something we don't have, in this way, the penicillin we produce will definitely not have a competitive advantage compared with your production."
What Li Hao said is the truth, and the Americans also believe in their technological superiority and believe that the Chongqing Pharmaceutical Factory will definitely not be able to threaten them.
So the Americans who took the lead almost didn't hesitate and readily agreed: "Yes, you can produce it yourself." ”
Li Hao nodded and continued: "Second, take out 100,000 US dollars from 10 million US dollars to buy all the equipment of a medium-sized pharmaceutical factory from the United States, and you are responsible for transporting it and sending it directly to Chongqing. ”
"The current production capacity of the Chongqing pharmaceutical factory can no longer meet the needs of the frontline soldiers, so we have to increase the production of penicillin."
"Third, spend $3.9 million on heavy artillery shells and large-caliber mortars."
"I only need two models of shells and one large-caliber mortar, here is the list and quantity."
"According to the price in your US arms market, $3.9 million is enough to buy these shells and artillery, and there are more than $100,000 left."
"The more than 100,000 US dollars is equivalent to the freight, and you will be responsible for transportation and delivery at the Chongqing terminal."
"I have six million dollars left, I want three million dollars in gold, and I want to deposit the remaining three million dollars in your Citibank in the United States, divided into three parts, one million dollars each."
This time the Americans did not speak immediately, frowning and falling into deep thought, and whispering to each other about it.
Li Hao seized the opportunity to give Jack next to him a look.
Jack was already completely immersed in shock.
The price of 10 million US dollars was traded, and according to the previous agreement between himself and Li Hao, he could directly take 1 million US dollars.
That means you're a millionaire.
It took a long time to react, and after seeing the look that Li Hao gave him, he replied with understanding: "Gentlemen, I know that you are worried about how these weapons and ammunition will be transported to Chongqing, and I don't think this is a problem at all. ”
"Japan is not at war with the United States, as long as we hide weapons and ammunition during transportation, cover them with ordinary equipment and supplies, and then send a force to protect them along the way, unless the Japanese want to provoke international disputes and declare war on the US government, they will never dare to board the ship for inspection."
"Okay, we agree to this deal!" The Americans have finally made a decision.
