Fast forward to 2004.

Looking back on this year, Aquaman can be said to have gained a lot.

Due to the epidemic in the first half of the year, offline transactions almost shrank, and the launch of Neptunus online mall changed the existing sales pattern.

Today's Neptune online mall has become the top of the industry and is known as the fifth pharmaceutical capital.

In less than a year, the online transaction volume reached more than 6 billion.

With the offline store sales business, Neptunus's sales easily exceeded 10 billion this year.

It has become the only private non-listed company to enter the 10 billion club.

The North China branch has also been established, and the various businesses have been smoothly promoted, although it is still in its infancy, but it is very promising.

Anguo Green Plant Cooperative, Wenshan Green Plant Base, and the investment in the second medicine projects are also carried out in an orderly manner.

Not only that, but the overseas layout has also been gained.

Jin Minzhi also won Zhonggen Pharmaceutical with the help of Yin Dongzhu, although the power is in the hands of Yin Dongzhu, the share occupied by the Sea King is not much, and the resources that can be used are not much, but it can be regarded as a victory.

Without Yin Dongzhu, the eleven percent of Aquaman's shares may be lost.

Of course, there are even bigger challenges ahead.

The first is the Chamber of Commerce.

So far, Chen Yang has not figured out the details of the merchants in the country, and naturally there is no way to fight back.

But don't worry, through the Wenshan Green Plant Base, Chen Yang has successfully mingled with the locals.

Even if the Chamber of Commerce wants to do it, it will not be easy for him.

The second thing is that the North China Scientific Research Center has almost been prepared, and it is waiting to open on a certain date.

Chen Yang decided that after this lawsuit, it may be better to open when Aquaman's R&D strength is famous.

The leader is tentatively Guo Qing.

This depressed old man still has some skills.

Innovation may not be successful, but it is still no problem to help Professor Chen greatly assist in in-depth research according to the map.

Of course, there is the most important thing, that is, the next technical battle between Aquaman and Xiao Ri.

In this lawsuit, Aquaman must make a name for himself.

"Mr. Chen, Guan Yue is here, saying that he has something important to see you."

The security guard came to report.

"Let her in!"

Chen Yang smiled.

Now the entire site has been basically completed, twenty security guards are also in place, and Tian Guang and others are also performing their duties.

The safety factor of the whole site has been improved a lot.

Chen Yang is not afraid of what the Chamber of Commerce is doing.

Besides, Guan Yue's details have been almost investigated.

After half a ring, Guan Yue walked in.

"Mr. Chen, it's really not easy to meet you."

At this meeting, Guan Yue was much more honest.

knew that his posture was not in Chen Yang's eyes at all, so he gave up this thought.

"Say something, my time is precious."

Chen Yang said surgingly.

He wasn't interested in these little shrimps.

"Mr. Chen, I heard that you are caught in a patent dispute?"

Guan Yue asked tentatively.

Dispute?

Chen Yang was dumbfounded.

Xiaori's shameless thing, embarrassed to ask him for a patent?

However, the news of this British Chamber of Commerce is quite well-informed.

"It's also called a dispute?"

Chen Yang disagreed.

Otherwise!

Guan Yue shook his head and said: "Now the most important thing in the capital market is the prospect, and Haiwang is also a big capital optimistic about it." If you get involved in a patent dispute, it will affect financing and investor confidence. ”

As the bright card of the British Chamber of Commerce, she is also a bit of a level.

Now capital really doesn't like trouble.

If any project falls into a property rights dispute, it will definitely be abandoned by all kinds of capital.

But Aquaman is an alternative.

Because...... Chen Yang is not short of money.

"You don't have to worry about this, as long as I want to raise money, some people are willing to invest."

Chen Yang smiled.

It's not blowing.

When they were on Hong Kong Island before, some people raised this possibility, but Chen Yang dispelled their doubts with a straight word.

Huaxia does not recognize Xiaori's Kampo and other derivative patents.

So in Aquaman, you don't have to pay attention to it at all.

In addition to making Aquaman famous, there is no problem with a lawsuit.

"Mr. Chen is very confident. Yes, at present, Aquaman's business is only in China, so it has no impact, but ......"

Guan Yue paused and said, "Could it be that Mr. Chen's ambition stops at home?" ”

"What do you mean?"

Chen Yang frowned.

Naturally, his ambitions are not limited to domestic.

"Right now, both Europe and the United States recognize Kampo's patents, and once Aquaman and Xiao Ri have patent entanglements, Xiao Ri will find a way to block you and make it difficult for your things to be exported. I think that's what they're really for. ”

Guan Yuesi said slowly.

Chen Yang stopped talking.

How could he not have thought of this.

The reason why Xiao Ri chose to make such a fuss is not to make this matter known to everyone and build momentum for the next technological blockade?

But......

A smile flashed at the corner of Chen Yang's mouth.

At present, Haiwang has mastered 20% of the trading volume of medicinal materials, and is also involved in foreign trade.

Small days can block technology and prevent them from exporting.

In addition to his own greed, Nakane's reason for rescinding the agreement may also be due to this reason.

However, Aquaman can also block the raw materials in turn, leaving them with no medicinal materials to use.

It's just that now, Neptune has not completed its monopoly in the medicinal materials industry, and it will not be able to block raw materials for a while.

"Mr. Chen, we can help you."

Guan Yue made a suggestion.

Help me?

Chen Yang subconsciously glanced at Guan Yue.

"We can make Aquaman achieve a monopoly in a short period of time, and have the qualifications to compete with Xiao Ri. Of course, we do not interfere in Mr. Chen's operation, as long as we occupy some shares. ”

Guan Yue swears.

But Chen Yang will definitely not believe this.

It is easy to please God, but it is difficult to send God.

Once the capital of the Chamber of Commerce is brought in, it will be difficult to clean it up.

Besides, this chamber of commerce is very mysterious, and Chen Yang doesn't want to have anything to do with them.

"You are a pawn, and you also have this right?"

Chen Yang asked deliberately.

"There is no need for Mr. Chen to worry about this, as long as Mr. Chen is interested, someone on our side will contact you."

Guan Yue is obviously confident.

Hehe!

Chen Yang smiled and took out a cigarette, Guan Yue smiled and picked up the lighter and lit it for him.

Chen Yang took a puff and spit out a smoke ring.

"First, our Sea King is not short of money."

"Second, your Chamber of Commerce is very mysterious, and I don't want to risk it. Who knows if your money is clean? ”

"Third, I'm a little curious. Since your Chamber of Commerce is so powerful, why are you so interested in Aquaman? ”

This is also a question that he can't figure out.

If Haiwang wants to quickly complete the monopoly, it must raise at least tens of billions of yuan, develop online trade, and occupy markets at all levels.

Can the Chamber of Commerce have such a large capital?

Since they have such a big capital, why do they have to smash the Sea King?

Three questions stopped Guan Yue at once.

It's not that she's not good at answering, it's that she doesn't dare to answer.

"Sending off!"

Chen Yang didn't raise his head.

This Tumbling Chamber of Commerce is really patient, and has repeatedly asked Guan Yue to grind with him.

He couldn't be too patient either.

"Mr. Chen......"

Guan Yue wanted to say something, but was blocked by Lao Hu.

"Miss Guan, please go out."

Guan Yue saw that this time it was still fruitless, and couldn't help but say anxiously: "Mr. Chen, if you think my portion is not enough." We can talk to you with someone with weight......"

Chen Yang was waiting for this sentence.

"Then let's replace someone with weight."

Good!

Guan Yue also breathed a sigh of relief.

She had been grinding Chen Yang's side for a while, and finally pried open a crack in this smelly and hard stone.

As long as Chen Yang has something to talk about, it's okay.

Her mission was accomplished.

As for whether the next talks can be reached or not, it is none of her business.

"I will reflect it to the above, it is estimated that it will not be long before someone will come to Mr. Chen."

Chen Yang was noncommittal, and after Guan Yue left, his face immediately sank.

The strength is still not enough!

In the face of the blockade of Xiaori, he can't come up with a countermeasure for the time being.

Branches, R&D centers should still step up, and strive to occupy major pharmaceutical capitals within two or three years to form a monopoly situation.

The construction of North China branch, R&D center and logistics point has invested about 1 billion yuan so far.

It's just a branch.

In the next two or three years, Chen Yang will build three or five branches and R&D centers.

It's just an investment of four to five billion.

With Neptune's current income, it will take at least two or three years to build a new branch.

It's not just the funding gap, it's also the talent gap.

Aquaman's talent pool can't keep up now.

Far from enough!

As soon as he thought of this, Chen Yang's head was a little big.

Don't look at the turnover of Neptune has exceeded 10 billion, but the net profit after removing various expenses and taxes is only about a few hundred million.

Although hundreds of millions are a lot, the average number of companies under its umbrella is not much at all.

Fortunately, the layout of the overseas side is won by relying on the dividends of patent exports, otherwise the current Sea King is simply not enough to support the current situation.

But there's no urgency!

At present, Aquaman has no plans to export overseas for the time being.

The outside must be safe.

If you can't handle it at home, don't think about it abroad for the time being.

Jingle bell, the phone rang, it was Fang Qingpu's.

"You're ready to start?"

Fang Qingpu's quiet voice came from there.

Are you going to get started?

Chen Yang's spirit was shocked.

He had already prepared it.

This time, you must make the little day disgraced.

Patent?

Hehe!

Think too much.

"Thank you for reminding me, I have entrusted this matter to Lawyer Cao."

Chen Yang subconsciously mentioned.

"Grass!"

Fang Qingpu burst into foul language and scolded: "Chen Yang, your uncle ......"

Isn't this a pot that doesn't open and mention?

Is the fat man unhappy in his heart?

Chen Yang quickly hung up the phone, with a smug look on his face.

Fang Qingpu vs Cao Sen?

Just thinking about it excites him.

Who is the fighter in the strange picture?

Next, let's wait and see.

……

Dynasty Clubhouse!

Boss Hong listened carefully to the secretary's report.

Guan Yue is not qualified to meet Boss Hong.

Everything was forwarded by the secretary.

"Boss, Guan Yue means let's contact Chen Yang again."

"Hehe, from Chen Yang's words, I don't see any sincerity. This Guan Yue is also a fool, hasn't he dealt with Chen Yang yet? ”

"I still don't think he knows enough about the Chamber of Commerce. Perhaps we can leak it a little bit and say that he is more willing to cooperate. ”

"What do you mean, let's reveal a little more in front of him."

The secretary stopped talking.

Naive!

Boss Red snorted.

Although the Chamber of Commerce has a large heritage, it is often disgraceful.

If Chen Yang takes refuge sincerely, it's fine, but if he doesn't take refuge sincerely, many things will be exposed.

Although you are not afraid of anything in Yun Province, you should be careful.

Besides, Chen Yang is not a simple guy, he also has the background of the Li family.

The Li family is an existence that even Mr. Mao can't see.

"You can't take such a risk."

Boss Hong shook his head, and his heart was a little entangled.

Chen Yang and Sea King are very optimistic about her, once they are absorbed into the Chamber of Commerce, they will be of great use.

Through these interactions, she also has some understanding of Chen Yang's temperament.

This guy is completely soft and not hard.

Threats are not very effective.

Besides, she didn't have anything to hold Chen Yang in her hands now.

The secretary suddenly stopped talking.

"What do you want to say?"

Boss Red glanced at the secretary.

"Boss, I think it's better to attack his weaknesses."

Weakness!

Boss Red frowned.

At present, Chen Yang's known weakness seems to be only women.

But this kid is too shrewd, and after coming to Yun Province, he cowered in the base and couldn't come out, and Boss Red couldn't use any means.

"I heard that Chen Yang has built a green plant base in the mountains, and there is a shortage of people around him......"

"Are you trying to break inside? But Chen Yang is not a fool, how can he use outsiders? ”

Boss Red asked rhetorically.

"Have you forgotten the White Rose?"

The secretary reminded him.

Boss Hong was stunned, then shook his head.

"That woman can't be trusted!"

Chen Yang doesn't seem to be too interested in her.

"Boss, Bai Gui is greedy for money, and the handle is also in our hands. If we're willing to pay a little price, she'll probably cooperate. We don't need her to do anything, we just need to let Bai Gui arrange people by Chen Yang's side. ”

Reasonable!

Boss Hong's eyes lit up.

Maybe this solution can be tried.

But...... Who's going to do that?

She does have a lot of excellent girls on her hands, but each has its own purpose, and she can't find the right person for a while.

Then, she turned her attention to the secretary.

"The owner...... I can't! ”

The secretary didn't expect to lift a stone and hit his own foot, and secretly complained in his heart.

Boss Hong reached out and touched her face, and said with a smile: "Actually, I am not willing to let you go." ”

The secretary breathed a sigh of relief.

"However, there are really no good candidates now, Xuanxuan, you can sacrifice it."

Boss Red ruffled the hair from her forehead.

Boss......

The secretary's heart jumped.

"If this is done, I'll release your father, how about it?"

Boss Red looked her in the eye.

The secretary breathed heavily.

After a long time, he nodded reluctantly.

Very good!

Boss Hong stood up with a smile, and then unbuttoned his clothes.

"Tonight is the ...... that rewards you"

As he spoke, he pressed it violently against the couch.
