Chapter 316 I have something to ask you
Everyone knew the content of today's negotiations.
It was called a negotiation, but it was more like an invisible fight.
They all knew about the battle situation, except Chi Yuan who knew almost nothing.
As a recorder, she didn't need to know too many details.
"How many times? I've said long ago that my research won't be licensed for commercial use. This isn't your first time here, so why don't you think of trying to persuade your mother? I'm not the only researcher in the world. Even if I don't want to license my work for commercial purposes, there are plenty of people who do."
Karl seemed calm, but his voice revealed an invisible pressure.
Xia Lan was not affected at all, nor was she afraid.
"What can I do? Your research results are outstanding and have high practical value. Those people can't compare to you. If you are willing to authorize, Dr. Mori can even make you the richest man in the world."
The heroine paused her pen.
The world's richest man... that's not something you can just say. How much money does Dr. Mori have? She can't be richer than the world's richest man, right?
Or...it's all shady money.
"I don't need it. If she wants the money, let her keep it. Isn't this all what she wants?" Karl's attitude remained firm: "What she wants may not be what I want. I won't agree to anything she says."
"I have always disagreed, what can you do to me?"
The conversation became increasingly pointed, and Ye Jing had already taken a defensive stance.
Chi Yuan noticed a problem.
The other side said... Qi Wang was the one sent to negotiate, but Xia Lan led the vanguard and showed his talent.
What about Qi Wang?
Just a representative?
Until now, he hasn't said a word.
"Stubborn."
Xia Lan's smile faded, and she placed her hands on the table. "Old man, this is your last chance. Don't regret it. If we can't get your experimental data, you can't keep it. Do you want to see your results destroyed? They should have been recorded."
Every achievement is the result of the hard work of the experimenters, and not just Carl alone. Others include his former colleagues, students, and even those who have become his rivals... It is undoubtedly a pity that all the hard work was destroyed.
But Karl seemed to not care at all, and his tone remained indifferent.
"Let them be destroyed. They aren't good things. You've taken them and put them into mass production, disrupting the world order. I think it's fine if they're destroyed."
Xia Lan was also very angry.
She didn't expect Karl to be so stubborn.
Why would he disagree with something that benefits both parties?
"Little girl, you're still young. Remember to ask your mother to come in person during the next negotiation. I really have a lot to say to her."
Xia Lan gritted her teeth and tilted her head to look at Qi Wang: "Why don't you say something! Aren't you quite good at business negotiations? This time we've achieved results, and the company you manage will increase its revenue. Isn't that good?"
Chi Yuan looked over immediately.
Qi Wang is actually running a company now?
Perhaps her gaze was too scorching, and Xia Lan noticed it immediately.
"What are you looking at? Mind your own business."
Only then did Chi Yuan slightly shift his gaze.
To be honest, Xia Lan's hot temper is quite similar to Ye Jing's.
It seems that it is inherited from that man named Dr. Sen.
"What's the rush? The professor has so many achievements, and you want to buy the license all at once? How can that be possible?"
Qi Wang raised the corner of his lips and mocked her: "You can tell at a glance that you have never done business before."
Xia Lan took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to refute.
She was a bit aggressive, but now she would restrain herself in front of her own people.
And what Qi Wang said makes sense.
Dr. Sen never said that he wanted to buy the exclusive rights to all pharmaceutical formulas and medical technologies at once.
"So what do you mean?"
Now, it is Qi Wang’s home court.
"Professor Carl, I think you could license the production of some of the obviously beneficial drugs. Who wouldn't want to do something that benefits the people? Don't you agree?"
“…”
This time, Carl didn't refute immediately.
It is true that not all of his research is harmful to human health. There are many technologies that are unknown to outsiders. If Dr. Sen is allowed to promote them, it is not impossible.
But most of his research... was harmful, which was one of the reasons why his scientific research later stagnated and he turned to founding hospitals and traveling around the world.
What good can Dr. Sen do by wanting to buy those licenses?
But if some of the licenses are sold, it would be a good delaying tactic.
"Mr. Qi, what you said makes sense. I can consider it. However, since we have already discussed the deal, does what Miss Xia said just now still count?"
Xia Lan's expression suddenly changed.
She had just made such a boast in a hurry, and Karl was going to settle the score with her now?
"That depends on how sincere you are, Professor. Don't you want to meet my mother? You can discuss these matters with her first, provided she's willing to see you."
Qi Wang followed up on her words and continued, "I can guarantee that you will be satisfied with the compensation."
People who are familiar with Qi Wang will naturally trust his guarantee.
But now…Karl still has to pretend not to know him.
"Why should I believe your promise? I've only heard of your name, but that doesn't mean I can trust you."
Qi Wang then said to Xia Lan, "I need you to step aside for a moment. I have something I want to talk to Professor Karl about alone."
"no!"
Xia Lan's reaction was too intense, and she quickly suppressed her unhappiness: "Do you know what you are doing? I am worried about leaving you here alone."
Worried...naturally refers to worrying about Qi Wang.
She couldn't leave her post AWOL.
"If you keep being so rigid, we won't be able to complete our mission. Think carefully now about whether you want to listen to me or not. We are all in this together."
“…”
Xia Lan glared at Karl hatefully and left the meeting room.
"I'll go look after her."
After leaving the meeting room, who knows what Xia Lan will do.
This island is not very big, but it is not easy to find someone.
After the two left, there were three people left in the meeting room. Chi Yuan felt relieved, but he didn't dare to act rashly, for fear that the person outside the door would suddenly break in before he had gone far away.
"It's okay, they both went away."
Carl was the first to relax, he seemed to have gotten used to the situation.
"Why are you..."
Chi Yuan started asking questions as soon as she opened her mouth, but when she saw the eyes of the familiar person, she couldn't say the rest of the words.
The Qi Wang in front of her looked very familiar. Perhaps it was because they had not seen each other for too long that she felt strange.
"It's a long story. I'll explain it to you later."
Qi Wang put his finger on the center of his lips, then looked at Carl again.
"Professor Karl, I have something to ask you."
