"Yang Rui, is this your friend?" Song Jian, who was drinking tea in the corner of the yard, could not understand the English they spoke, but his eyes lit up as if he saw the pound.

"Oh, it's my friend." Yang Rui smiled and showed Frankie's shoulder, then let go of his hand in disgust.

This foreign fat man smelled of sweat all over his body.

Franky smiled embarrassedly, and then greeted in Chinese: "Hello."

Song Jian and the others immediately cheered up. Foreigners who can speak Chinese are rarer than giant pandas, so they said, "Hello, hello."

It's a pity that Franky can only say this, just like animals in the zoo who don't eat the food they get, they lack the pleasure of teasing.

Yang Rui rolled his eyes, introduced Frank to Song Jian and others in the yard, and said, "This is the negotiator of the British Zeneca company. They are interested in one of my technologies and are discussing patents and other issues." question."

"British Zeneca Company, how big is this company?" Song Jian asked with wide-eyed eyes, and said in his heart, what he really wanted.

Yang Rui has never studied Zeneca's specific operating conditions. Besides, it was not listed in London until 1985, and it is still a company that does not need to disclose annual reports. So he thought about it: "Annual sales of two to three billion pounds are still there."

The sales of large multinational companies are very high. Twenty years later, when Zeneca and Astra merged, the annual sales reached several million dollars. Now, Zeneca, which is not listed, is also one of the few in the world. A multinational pharmaceutical company with a volume of billions of pounds has no problem.

Song Jian was astonished at the two to three billion pounds, and said, "Isn't this costing tens of billions of RMB?"

This is a real company that can feed the Hedong Provincial Government with something that leaks through the fingers.

All the cells in Song Jian's body trembled, and he said involuntarily, "Lao Yang, your timing has come."

Comrade Yang Feng was unhappy, and said: "This is my son's friend. They talk about theirs, we talk about ours, and what do we do together."

Song Jian grabbed him and said, "Old Yang, opportunities wait for no one. What a good condition. Yang Rui, talk to your friend."

Yang Rui guessed something, but still asked: "What do you want to say?"

"It's okay, you do your own thing and don't worry about me." How could Yang Feng ask his son to help him.

Song Jian didn't care about Yang Feng,

Pulling Yang Rui, he talked about his conjecture and plan in a few words, and said, "You don't need to worry about typical things. The minister has already finalized it. Now if you bring an investment, it will be easy for me to help you talk."

Yang Rui rolled his eyes and asked, "How much?"

"Over $100,000 is fine, the more the less."

"Is US$100,000 enough?" Yang Rui thought to himself, the Ruijie factory in Xibao Town has invested US$100,000.

Song Jian nodded again and again and said: "More than enough. Do you know how much foreign investment Shaanxi Province attracted last year? A total of 250,000 US dollars came from two service industries. Our Hedong Province is a little better in this regard. 100,000 US dollars can also make the province The leaders saw it."

Yang Feng frowned and said, "Didn't Director Huang you mentioned earlier find an investment of more than 10 million?"

"It's all domestic investment. The money is from state-owned enterprises and banks, which is different from foreign capital. Foreign capital is foreign money, which is given to us by others. Domestic investment is rotten in the pot, and 10 million is not 10 million. Thousands of dollars sounds good, oh, British companies are in pounds."

Yang Rui nodded and said "yes".

Yang Feng was still not happy, and said, "I don't want to get rich by getting promoted."

Yang Rui was interested, and asked: "If you find foreign capital, can you get promoted and get rich?"

"It depends on who finds it. Someone like your father can get promoted and make a fortune if he finds foreign capital." Song Jian was determined to persuade Yang Rui.

"Nonsense, it's not that easy." Yang Feng resolutely objected.

"It won't be too difficult, I will tell you about the policy." Song Jian became serious and said: "A few days ago, at the symposium on some coastal cities held by the Secretariat of the Central Committee and the State Council, the main topic was to introduce better Foreign capital and advanced technology. Zeneca is a pharmaceutical company, right? Isn’t this advanced technology? It’s foreign capital, isn’t this the introduction of foreign capital? Now, foreign capital is mainly concentrated in coastal areas, and our Hedong Province has neither traditional advantages nor discovery As a new economic growth point, attracting foreign investment has always been a long-standing problem, Lao Yang, if you can find foreign investment, why don’t you go sideways in Pingjiang?”

When it came to policy, Yang Feng couldn't speak to the government officials from the province, so he couldn't answer for a while.

Song Jian coughed and said, "Yang Rui, otherwise, you can translate and I will speak. Let's talk first."

"No, they are begging me now, not me begging them." When Yang Rui said this, everyone was shocked.

Song Jian hurriedly asked: "Tell me what's going on?"

Yang Rui roughly talked about the upcoming price competition of coenzyme q10, saying: "Once a price war starts, it cannot be stopped if one party wants to. Therefore, both parties are now desperately reducing costs. If you lower the cost of the opponent, you may win without fighting, or kill them all, it is the one with the lower cost that has the final say. My technology can just reduce their cost."

In fact, Yang Rui's technology can not only reduce costs, because the technology he developed is very mature. Therefore, factories using Yang Rui's technology also surpass similar products in terms of quality. In other words, even if the cost of Japanese manufacturers is similar to that of Zeneca, Zeneca can kill them all.

This is a great advantage.

Coenzyme Q10 is not a major market, and if no profit can be made no matter how hard you try, even the wealthy Japanese consortium may withdraw. Of course, European and American manufacturers such as Zeneca, which have deep pockets, withdrew from this market in history, ceding the market with annual sales of 1 billion US dollars to Japanese pharmaceutical companies.

A billion-dollar market may be a drop in the ocean as far as the entire pharmaceutical market is concerned, but it is quite attractive to individual companies and even individual countries. No one would give up such a blockbuster drug lightly.

Song Jian didn't understand what he heard, so he just said: "Then ask, if they have any plans to invest in the country, if so, try to let them invest in Hedong Province, it's best to let them talk to your father."

"I'll try." Yang Rui agreed without hesitation.

He has experience in Ruijie factory, so he naturally knows how to do it.

While the Chinese were talking, Frankie, a fat man who couldn't understand Chinese, looked to the left and right, observing their eyes and expressions. Frankie felt that they were discussing themselves.

Franky was a little nervous, and regretted not asking for an interpreter.

Ten minutes ago, he had just finished the call with London, and was asked to ensure that Yang Rui could complete the technology development as soon as possible.

As a result, a few minutes ago, Yang Rui suspended the most affordable sponsorship plan.

If it wasn't for the short time and being familiar with Yang Rui, Franky would even suspect that his call was tapped.

Now, seeing Yang Rui, his father, and several strangers talking at a fast pace, Frankie is very concerned about what they are talking about.

It was Xiao Li who was the first to notice Franky's expression, and said in a low voice, "The foreigner seems a little nervous."

Yang Rui looked back, he was a little nervous, and he was sweating nervously.

Or maybe I didn't sweat clean just now, and now I'm free and just sweating.

"Let me find a place for you to take a bath and rest." The Yang family installed a metal box on the roof, and boiled water by themselves for bathing. This kind of equipment is also the first in Xizhaizi Township, at least there is no guest house. . The guest house in Xizhaizi Township is a Datong shop that shares dry toilets, and the conditions are unimaginably poor.

Frankie came here just to take a shower, but at this moment he shook his head again and again and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, Yang Rui, what are you discussing?"

Yang Rui said: "I introduced the current situation to my father and asked for his opinion."

"Oh? Oh, what's your father's opinion?"

"My father is in a public office and hopes to increase jobs for the residents in the jurisdiction." This is a very European expression, which is easy for Franky to understand.

Frankie understood it, but immediately became embarrassed.

He has been in Xizhaizi Township for several days, and the simple folk customs and hospitable villagers make him feel very good, but when it comes to building a factory in Xizhaizi Township, Franky disagrees a hundred times.

This place is different from Xibao Town. Because of the Xibao Meat Factory, Xibao Town has a certain industrial foundation around it, and there are national highways passing by. It is easy to solve both hardware and software.

Xizhaizi Township is a purely agricultural township, lacking in everything from transportation to education level, but the pharmaceutical factory is high-tech, and the technology used now is more like a semi-automated enlarged version of the laboratory. Not only will the simplicity not increase production, It also increases the training period.

Yang Rui waited for him to worry enough, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, this is not a necessary condition. Moreover, my father's term of office is coming soon, and he may not continue his current position."

Frankie's heart moved: "Is he going to be promoted?"

"Maybe, it depends on the arrangement of the superior department. Of course, no matter where my father works, he will try his best to do his job well."

"It's understandable, Yang Rui and your father are both excellent..." Frankie began to think quietly while praising him bluntly.

He is a veteran employee of Zeneca in China, and he is relatively familiar with the situation in China. Unable to guess Yang Rui, Frankie couldn't help thinking of starting from the side.

Yang Rui smiled at Yang Feng and Song Jian, and said, "It's hard to say whether it will be possible or not. It should be fine to make an intention or something."

"Great, the intention is good." It is very complicated to set up a factory in a region, especially in the early 1980s, when investment attraction just started, and there were no precedents for various rules and regulations, and the green light was running wildly on bad roads , I can't go anywhere soon.

Turning his head around, Song Jian patted Yang Feng vigorously and said, "Old Yang, you have a good son."

Yang Feng was awkward for a while, unable to speak.
