"Doctor Wen, did you have a good day today?"
While greeting, Yu Zhiming tried to make his expression look more enthusiastic.
After all, Dr. Wen was so angry that he stormed out yesterday, and Yu Zhiming didn't want today's discussion to end in a bad mood.
Wen Yaoguang replied calmly, "It's OK. It's mainly thanks to Manager Fang for his hard work. He's been running around with an old man like me all day."
Fang Yu chuckled and said, "You're too polite, Mr. Wen. This is my job. But to be honest, Mr. Wen, you're in great shape. I can go shopping for three to five hours without complaining of being tired, but today I'm completely exhausted, yet you're still full of energy."
Wen Yaoguang chuckled and said with a hint of complacency, "Back home, I walk at least 20,000 steps every morning and evening, rain or shine, and I've persisted for over ten years."
"Dr. Wen has a great way to stay fit!"
Yu Zhiming praised him and then got back to the point. "Doctor Wen, I've noticed that patient Teng Lin's liver is exceptionally healthy compared to his other organs. I suspect it might be due to your folk remedy for treating uremia."
"I'd like us to collaborate on a study of the effects of your folk remedy on the liver."
Wen Yaoguang stroked his sparse beard and asked thoughtfully, "Are you not researching a cure for uremia anymore?"
Yu Zhiming nodded and explained, "Your folk remedy for treating uremia is overdrawing the potential of the remaining healthy kidney units. In my opinion, this is equivalent to exchanging more than ten years of life for one or two years of health. It's not worth it."
"Furthermore, even if it's a so-called cure like patient Teng Lin's, it's only a one in a hundred chance. It's more like luck, isn't it?"
Wen Yaoguang's face darkened again.
However, he didn't walk away in anger this time. After all, what Yu Zhiming said was realistic. More importantly, he was still looking forward to the cooperation between the two sides.
Wen Yaoguang took a deep breath and asked, "Doctor Yu, how do we collaborate to study the effects of my prescription on the liver?"
Yu Zhiming had considered this collaboration and said, "One option is an exclusive buyout. I'll pay a sum of money to buy out all the rights to your prescription, Dr. Wen."
"From now on, how I use this prescription and how I commercialize it will have nothing to do with you, Doctor Wen."
"Also, you can use this recipe yourself or pass it down through your family, but you are not allowed to resell it to others or cooperate with others to operate it commercially."
Yu Zhiming took a sip of water and continued, "The second way is to collaborate on research."
"I will invite my teacher, Mr. Ye Huazhang of Gancaotang, to participate. Depending on the situation, we may also invite Academician Tan Ying from our hospital's Liver Disease Research Center to participate."
"If the final research shows that it is worth putting into production, we will seek cooperation with pharmaceutical companies for production."
"When the drugs are sold in the future, the profits will be distributed according to the contributions of each party."
As soon as Yu Zhiming finished speaking, Wen Yaoguang asked, "How much can you offer for a buyout?"
Yu Zhiming was slightly startled, and instead of answering, he asked, "Doctor Wen, how much do you want?"
He further explained: "If you buy out the product, you can get a fairly large sum of money. However, if you have confidence in your own prescription and successfully put it into production and sales in the future, the profit share year after year will most likely be several times the buyout money.
Wen Yaoguang chuckled and said, "You are a national medical expert. Your teacher at Gancaotang is a master of traditional Chinese medicine, and so is the medical scholar at the Liver Disease Research Center."
"You all come from such powerful backgrounds, and I'm just an old Chinese medicine practitioner from a small town. The power imbalance between our two sides is too great. In the end, I might be taken advantage of by you, and I'll still be counting your money."
"It's better to just sell it off and get some money."
Wen Yaoguang sighed again, "A bird in the hand is worth a hundred in the bush. I'm not greedy. My son wants to buy a house and get married in a big city, so he needs some money right now."
"Doctor Yu, how much can you buy out?"
this……
Yu Zhiming had never really thought about this question. He pondered and said, "Doctor Wen, the effect of this prescription on the liver has only been seen in patient Teng Lin."
"At present, this is still an isolated case. There is a high possibility that Teng Lin has a special physique, or there are other reasons."
"I also need to examine some of the patients you, Doctor Wen, have treated with your prescriptions, and then ask my teacher, Mr. Ye, to do a comprehensive analysis of your prescriptions..."
"Doctor Yu..."
Wen Yaoguang suddenly interrupted Yu Zhiming and said, "I like to be straightforward and direct, without any fuss."
He held up three fingers and gestured, "One price, three million to buy it out. That's the lowest price I have in mind."
"Whether it will work or not, give me a definite answer right now!"
this……
Yu Zhiming was stunned again. Doctor Wen was too straightforward. He actually gave a quote directly.
However, Yu Zhiming could hear that the other person's heartbeat had quickened a lot and his breathing had become a little rapid.
Obviously, Dr. Wen was not as calm as he appeared, and he was very nervous.
Three million buyout?!
This asking price is a very high number for ordinary people, but for Yu Zhiming today, it is nothing. He can make the profit by treating a foreigner.
He can definitely afford it.
"Three million to buy out, yes!"
Yu Zhiming gave a yes and then said, "However, in addition to the prescription, there is also all the information and data related to this prescription, as well as the data of the patients you have treated."
"besides……"
Wen Yaoguang interrupted Yu Zhiming again and said, "Doctor Yu, don't worry. As long as the money is in place, I will give you whatever you want."
"You are a big shot, and you have a master of traditional Chinese medicine. I dare not lie to you, and I can't lie to you."
He raised his skinny right hand and said nervously and excitedly, "Three million for a buyout, and a high five as a pledge?!"
Yu Zhiming quickly raised his hand and slapped him.
I have to say, this old guy has quite a strong grip.
Yu Zhiming withdrew his hand, shook it quietly, and said to Wen Yaoguang, "If the research results of the prescription do not meet expectations, then I will consider you, Dr. Wen, a friend regardless of age difference."
"If the drug exceeds expectations and has a good market, I will give you some profit share at my discretion."
Wen Yaoguang smiled broadly and said, "I'd like to thank you, Dr. Yu, for your generosity."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said to Fang Yu, "Go back and draft the buyout contract and sign it tomorrow."
Fang Yu nodded and said...
Fang Yu first sent Dr. Wen out of the soundproof office, and then returned.
"Doctor Yu, this Chinese medicine prescription buyout contract, in order to make the contract rigorous, should require some professional terms related to Chinese medicine. In this regard..."
Yu Zhiming understood Fang Yu's meaning and said, "Well, go to Gancaotang and ask for advice. They should have a similar prescription transaction agreement there."
After a pause, Yu Zhiming continued, "During the transaction, the prescription needs to be authenticated, and the information provided by Doctor Wen needs to be verified."
"All of this work cannot be done without the supervision of experienced and skilled Chinese medicine experts."
"I will discuss this matter with Teacher Ye..."
On the way home, Yu Zhiming called Mr. Ye and briefly talked about buying out the folk remedy.
"Three million to buy out? Zhiming, you're too generous."
Mr. Ye taught over the phone, "With the development of the world today, there are still some valuable recipes left among the people, but they are extremely rare. If you are lucky enough to stumble upon one, it can be worth tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of yuan at best."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "Teacher, just think of me as a fool with a lot of money and willful behavior this time."
"Hey, teacher, I'll have to ask for your continued attention for this prescription transaction and future research on its efficacy."
Mr. Ye chuckled softly on the other end of the line and said, "I will naturally pay attention to your affairs and try my best to ensure that your three million will not go to waste."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "Teacher, I have a feeling that I won't lose this time. My luck has always been good..."
