Chapter 136: Looking at the Land
Huatai Pharmaceutical Company headquarters.
In a luxurious office, Qiao Bazhi leaned on the sofa and stared blankly at the decoration on the ceiling.
His workload these days is several times higher than before, all because of problems with his company Huatai Pharmaceutical.
Huatai Pharmaceutical is an important source of working capital for his companies, and its "Nanzhao Huoxue Pills" are his cash cow for accumulating wealth.
But unexpectedly, a product called "Datang Muscle and Bone Tablets" suddenly appeared on the market, which had functions similar to those of "Nanzhao Huoxue Pills".
This 'Tang Dynasty Muscle and Bone Slice' came with great force, launching a gg offensive without any warning.
The other party was well prepared and the drug was distributed to four provinces on the day it was launched.
What made him even more depressed was that this medicine was not only more effective than his "Nanzhao Huoxue Pills", but also much cheaper.
However, the consequence was that the shipment volume of his 'Nanzhao Huoxue Pills' gradually decreased.
The other party's drug has only been on the market for a week, and its shipments have dropped by nearly 40%, and this number is still increasing.
After hearing the news, he immediately rushed back from Hong Kong, hoping to find a way to deal with it.
He is now in a very passive state. Because of excessive investment in Vanke Real Estate, although the projects he invested in are bound to make a lot of money, it will take a long time to recover the funds.
Although we can maintain a stable state at the moment, problems will definitely arise in the long run!
Boom boom boom…
Just as he was lost in thought, there was a knock on the office door.
Hearing the voice, Qiao Bazhi sat up straight and said, "Come in."
Wang Zhong walked into the office with an anxious look on his face and said, "Eighth Master, we've found out. The chairman of Datang Pharmaceutical is called Tang Mengzhi."
"Tang Mengzhi?"
Qiao Bazhi frowned and pondered for a while, still feeling that he had never heard of such a person, so he continued to ask, "What did the other party say?"
"We contacted them," Wang Zhong replied. He then glanced at Qiao Bazhi's expression and whispered cautiously, "But they said they have no interest in cooperating with you."
Qiao Bazhi sighed. He had originally wanted to negotiate with the other party to see if the price could be raised.
If the other party is willing to raise the price, then although the shipment volume will decrease, the price will make up for the money, which is relatively more advantageous.
If he lowers the price at this time, it will create a win-win situation.
But who knew that the other party didn't buy his face at all.
"Have you contacted President Liu of CCB and President Wang of ICBC?" Qiao Bazhi asked.
"I contacted them, but both of them said they were on business trips out of town," Wang Zhong replied.
Both of them are on a business trip?
Qiao Bazhi frowned deeply and touched the stubble on his chin with the only three fingers left on his left hand.
His years of experience in the underworld have allowed him to smell a hint of conspiracy.
President Liu and President Wang are senior leaders of China Construction Bank and Workers' Bank of China in Guangdong and Guangdong respectively, and are also his partners with whom he has worked for many years.
In the past, the other party was almost always available when needed, so how come these two people suddenly went on business trips at the same time?
Qiao Bazhi knew that the so-called business trip was just a cover because these two people didn't want to see him at all.
The fact that he contacted the other party had actually been planned long before. Initially, he planned to use Vanke's equity as collateral to ask the two of them for 1 billion yuan each, and then use it as capital to start the Zhujiang project.
When he realized that there was a problem with his capital chain, he prepared to lend an additional 500 million yuan to each person to use as working capital for Vanke.
But these two people actually avoided me at the same time. Could it be that someone wanted to deal with me?
However, Qiao Bazhi quickly denied his idea.
First of all, he had never heard of the Datang Group and had no grudge against the man named Tang Mengzhi. This should just be a coincidence and did not seem to be directed against him.
Secondly, he never leaves the house now, so naturally he has no enemies.
But this made him a little confused.
Being able to influence the leaders of both CCB and ICBC at the same time, he must have considerable power. Qiao Bazhi sorted out all the suspects in his mind and soon decided on a candidate.
That was Li Ruiyi, with whom he had a conflict of interest. This time, the two sides were competing over the Zhujiang project, so it was understandable that the other side was operating under the other's control. And it was understandable that President Liu and President Wang didn't meet with him. After all, he simply didn't have the capital to fight against the Li family.
Knowing that the other party was not targeting him and was just competing for a project, Qiao Bazhi felt a little relieved.
He could even give up Zhu Jiang's project, which would only make him earn less money and would not cause any serious harm.
If the Li family knew about his situation and targeted him, that would be a serious trouble.
Qiao Bazhi thought for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Is the Guangdong-Guangdong Private Enterprise Exchange Conference the day after tomorrow?"
"Yes," Wang Zhong replied. "They sent the invitation a week ago, and you said you wouldn't attend."
"Tell them I'm participating." Qiao Bazhi said with a smile.
He suddenly felt that there was a ray of hope after a dark period. He could find a way to solve the problem of the company's capital chain, and he was also ready to get involved in Zhu Jiang's project.
I can't come up with the money now, but I can also find someone to cooperate with and give up some of the profits when the time comes, right?
"Okay." Wang Zhong said, "I'll reply right away."
Qiao Bazhi nodded, then waved his hand and said, "You can go down."
Wang Zhong immediately agreed, then turned and walked out of the office.
Qiao Bazhi frowned again as he looked at Wang Zhong's back, not knowing what he was thinking.
Wang Zhong walked out of the office, looked around, then quickly took out his mobile phone, sent a message, and then did what Qiao Bazhi instructed.

Seeing Jesus catching up, Tang Shuo shook his head helplessly and started the car.
He would rather believe that his judgment was wrong and Jesus had made a wasted trip than to hear that there was really something wrong with Zhang Wei.
From the fact that Zhang Jingxin brought Zhang Wei to see him, it can be seen that Zhang Jingxin treats the other party sincerely.
If Zhang Wei really has a problem, it will definitely be a big blow to Zhang Jingxin.
But now that things have come to this, Tang Shuo has no choice.
A short pain is worse than a long one. If it was really as he thought, Tang Shuo would definitely speak out frankly.
Just two minutes into the drive, Tang Shuo's cell phone rang.
He originally thought it was another 'You're dead' text message, because he would basically receive one at this time.
When he saw the content of the message, he smiled playfully.
Now it's time to meet Eight Fingers Joe!

When Jesus returned to the hotel, it was already past three in the morning, and Tang Shuo had already fallen asleep.
After Jesus entered the room, he looked at the sleepy Tang Shuo and asked with a sad tone, "Are you already asleep?"
Tang Shuo nodded and said with a smile, "Let's get down to business."
"God will not forgive you." Jesus said angrily.
He originally thought that Tang Shuo had something to deal with, so he asked him to do it, but he didn't expect that the other party came back to sleep first.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Tang Shuo said, "Did you and the other party see anything?"
After hearing Tang Shuo's words of comfort, Jesus felt a little better. He glared at Tang Shuo and asked, "Did Zhang Jingxin's girlfriend go to see Ding what?"
"Ding Xinran." Tang Shuo reminded.
"Yes." Jesus nodded and said, "They are now in a villa in the suburbs."
"Um."
Tang Shuo nodded in disappointment and said to Jesus, "You should go to bed early."
“…”
The next day.
Early in the morning, Tang Shuo sent a message to Zhang Jingxin saying "Be careful of Zhang Wei", and then he and Jesus drove towards the Zhujiang River in Yangcheng.
He has already met with Wu Gangyue today in the area where the Zhujiang project is located.
When they arrived at their destination, Wu Gang was already waiting for them.
Tang Shuo stepped forward and greeted the other party, and then Wu Gang told Tang Shuo about the surrounding environment and future construction ideas.
The three of them had just turned halfway when they saw several cars stopped on the road.
Then Tang Shuo saw his acquaintance Li Ruiyi walking over with a group of men and women.
Tang Shuo smiled. He was a little confused as to whether this was fate or just a narrow path for enemies to meet.
