Changhai Group's pharmaceutical business has hit a bottleneck in the past two years, and it has not found a breakthrough.
Park Dae-woo had been troubled by this matter, and his eyes lit up when he heard the news.
"Is this targeted drug really as powerful as you say?" Park Dae-woo couldn't help but ask.
Wang Baoguo nodded repeatedly, "Chairman, let me tell you this: the cost of this new targeted drug is extremely low, a full ten times lower than our previous costs. You know, we used to earn a billion yuan a year with targeted drugs. Once this targeted drug is on the market, we can earn at least ten billion yuan! The key is that we can also export it!"
"Is it really that profitable?" Park Dae-woo was immediately excited. A hundred small goals a year? Who wouldn't be confused by that?
Wang Baoguo hurriedly said, "Chairman, as long as you agree, I will contact them immediately, purchase this research result, and apply for a patent!"
"Buy what?! Why don't we just copy it? With our pharmaceutical factory's equipment, what can't we make?" Park Dae-woo said irritably.
Such a valuable patent would probably cost at least a hundred million to buy. His idea was to simply snatch it.
Wang Baoguo's face immediately showed a troubled expression. "Chairman Park, I'm afraid this won't work. This sample was sent by the inspection department and has gone through official channels. I'm afraid we won't be able to get it on us!"
"Sent from the inspection department?" Park Dae-woo frowned and said, "Then find out more about this sample, what's going on, and which pharmaceutical company it came from, before we make any further plans!"
"good!"
Wang Baoguo hurriedly went out to inquire, and returned shortly afterward.
"Haha, Chairman, this is truly a godsend for Changhai!"
"What do you mean?" Park Dae-woo asked, frowning.
Wang Baoguo said with a smile, "It turns out that this sample came from an unknown small laboratory without production qualifications. Moreover, the person who invented this drug is involved in a criminal case. The procuratorate sent this sample to determine his sentence! I heard that many people have used his drug. If this sample is found to cause serious harm to people, he may be sentenced to death!"
"What?" Park Dae-woo's eyes widened in surprise. "So, if he's gone, the patent will be ours?"
Wang Baoguo clapped his hands, "That's right! As long as this person is dead, we can make a slight change to the formula, and no one will jump out to argue with us. The patent will naturally be ours!"
"Haha, great!"
Park Dae-woo, his previous dejection gone, said with great enthusiasm, "Then let's do it this way. You quickly issue a false report to the prosecution, saying that this drug is fake and has caused serious harm to the human body!"
Wang Baoguo nodded, but hesitated for a moment before saying, "Chairman Park, I recently heard that a high-ranking official has come to Xidu, and the inspection department is not as powerful as before. If they find out, it might cause some trouble!"
"What's so troublesome about this!" Park Dae-woo sneered. "No matter how high-ranking an official is, he still has two superiors and subordinates, right? It's fine, just go ahead and do it. First, make some connections in the inspection department, smooth things over with the head of the inspection department, and everything else will be easier, won't it?"
Wang Baoguo nodded with a smile, "Okay, I'll get on it right away!"
...
In the afternoon, Wang Baoguo sent someone to find out the home address of Zhang Dong, the head of the inspection department.
After get off work, Wang Baoguo personally carried the things to Zhang Dong's house.
This is a residential building for family members; it's an old neighborhood, but it's clean and tidy.
When Wang Baoguo arrived at the door, before he could even knock, he heard the couple arguing from inside.
"Old Zhang, let me tell you, my brother is finally getting married this time, and he wants to buy a house in Xidu. You have to give him some money! It's not much, just 800,000 yuan!"
"Are you crazy? Sending a child abroad to study costs 300,000 yuan a year. I've emptied my savings over the years, where am I going to get 800,000 yuan! Besides, that's your brother, why should I pay for it!"
"Bullshit! Isn't my brother your brother too? Isn't it only right that you, as his brother-in-law, contribute some money? Besides, don't think I don't know how much money you've taken over the years! Other people's husbands give all their earnings to their wives, but you, you only give them a pittance every month, which isn't even enough for me to buy Estée Lauder!"
"You're talking nonsense! My monthly salary is only a little over ten thousand. Is five thousand too little for me?"
"I don't care, it's my brother's wedding, and as his brother-in-law, you have to give something. If not 800,000, then a million will do! Don't tell me you don't have any, I don't believe you!"
"I... Oh dear, wife, didn't I tell you? The imperial inspectors from all eight prefectures are here to inspect, it's a sensitive time. Liu Zhengxiang has already been arrested. Do you think I would dare to accept things indiscriminately? Luckily, I was smart this time and sensed something was wrong, so I took the initiative to send the things I had accepted to the disciplinary office long ago. Otherwise, do you think Zhang Zhiyuan would have let me off the hook?"
"You mean you really can't come up with the money right now?"
"I really can't come up with it..."
"Useless! Utterly useless! A dignified head of the inspection department, after so many years, living in this dilapidated house, and getting nothing in return, how pathetic! I must have had the worst luck in eight lifetimes to marry you!"
"Hey, how dare you talk like that! Are you trying to make me punch you?"
"Come on, come on! If you dare hit me, I'll go to your workplace tomorrow and make a scene. I'll let your bosses and everyone know that you, Zhang Dong, are so powerful—you beat your wife at home!"
"You!! Hmph, unreasonable! I can't afford to mess with you, but can't I at least avoid you? I'm leaving! Okay?"
Squeak!
A short while later, a man wearing a jacket stormed out of the door.
As soon as they stepped outside, they bumped into Wang Baoguo, who looked embarrassed.
Zhang Dong frowned. "Who are you? What are you doing at my doorstep?"
Wang Baoguo quickly handed over his business card. "Director Zhang, I'm Wang Baoguo, the general manager of Changhai Pharmaceutical. I'm here to see you today..."
"I don't have time right now! If you need anything, you'll need to register and make an appointment at the city hall tomorrow. It's after working hours now, and we have a rule that we don't receive any business personnel!"
After Zhang Dong finished speaking, before Wang Baoguo could say anything, he walked directly downstairs.
Wang Baoguo stood there awkwardly for a long time before he came to his senses.
"Damn, he's just a section chief, what's with the attitude!"
That's what he said, but Wang Baoguo knew in his heart that if he didn't deal with Zhang Dong, this matter would absolutely not be accomplished.
He suddenly remembered the argument between Zhang Dong and his wife, and a slight, cold smile appeared on his lips.
"You're so high and mighty, but I don't believe the people around you can resist temptation!"
He snorted, took out his phone, made a call, and said in a deep voice, "Investigate Zhang Dong's brother-in-law immediately..."
