From a business perspective, as a law-abiding citizen, Xia Xu naturally had no intention of using illegal means to make a profit.
Since ancient times, even rebellion had to have a reason, the purpose was to gain a legitimate position. Now, even if Jiang Hai was dealt with by means such as threats, it would only lay a huge hidden danger for the future.
And he still values Jiang Hai's three-star medical talent.
Super brain potion is also a chemical drug. It can be said that the value of medical talent is actually not much lower than that of biological genetics. Three-star medical talent can be said to be a very rare high-end talent.
Isn’t it true that Griffin Jones, the protagonist of “Superbrain”, actually only has a three-star medical talent.
As the saying goes, to promote something, you must first suppress it; to use a stick and a carrot. I just happened to show the "stick" in response to the situation, and the next step is to take out the carrot.
"It's just a little joke, please don't mind, Mr. Jiang."
Xia Xu suddenly smiled, and the tense atmosphere around him instantly disappeared.
"I'd be foolish to believe you..."
This explanation made Jiang Hai's mouth twitch slightly.
But once these words were spoken to ease the atmosphere, it proved that the matter was still worth discussing, so both sides knew the truth and let it go.
The negotiations continued, but at this time the two sides had already completed the exchange of offense and defense.
Originally it was Jiang Hai who was unwilling to talk, and the party who needed to be persuaded was Xia Xu and others, but now it was Jiang Hai himself who had to find a suitable compromise to maintain the new drug research and development project.
Moreover, he seemed to have no choice and even found it difficult to think of a solution to the current predicament.
"Mr. Jiang, the reason you insist on developing new drugs is not just for profit, right? Is it because you or your parents suffer from blood pressure disease?"
Xia Xu mercilessly revealed Jiang Hai's last trump card and stripped him of everything.
At this moment, he is like a fish on the chopping board.
"Boss Xia is young and promising. I, Jiang Hai, admire him."
Jiang Hai sighed, a tired look on his face, and smiled bitterly: "Now that things have come to this, Boss Xia, if you have any suitable compromise plan, please propose it. As long as it can maintain the research and development of new drugs, I can accept a little loss."
He has thought it through now.
Right now it seems like a dead end with conflicting goals for both parties, but since the people from Xinghai Venture Capital came to talk to him, they must have a plan that can convince him to some extent.
“It’s not a compromise, it’s a win-win.”
Xia Xu's smile became brighter and gentler. He looked at Chen Leyao and said, "Sister Leyao, please show that thing to Mr. Jiang."
"Um."
Chen Leyao took out a folder from her bag, put it on the table and pushed it in front of Jiang Hai.
"This is… "
Jiang Hai was a little confused, but he reached out and picked up the folder and opened it.
"The new drug you are developing is just missing a key technology, but this technology has actually been developed by someone else. In the hands of another small company, it doesn't cost much to get the license."
While Jiang Hai was reading, Xia Xu also narrated a few words, and then said: "In addition, this document is a concept of a new drug dosage form technology, which is expected to perfectly achieve a continuous and stable drug release for more than 24 hours.
Various drugs that require sustained release, especially the antihypertensive drugs you are developing, if combined with this controlled release technology, what effect can be achieved? With Mr. Jiang's expertise, I don't need to explain it in detail, right?"
“This… this…”
Listening to Xia Xu's introduction, Jiang Hai quickly turned the document to the back, his lips and hands trembling with excitement.
He certainly understands the value of this controlled-release technology.
At this time, he had already turned a deaf ear to the key technologies of the new drugs that Xia Xu mentioned.
No matter how effective the antihypertensive drugs they developed are, they are only effective at best. However, this controlled-release technology is a completely new dosage form that can be applied to any drug in need.
Moreover, there are antihypertensive drugs on the market. If this controlled-release technology can be completed, any existing antihypertensive drug that is carried on the body will be able to outperform the new drug he originally envisioned.
Even if new drugs can achieve this, it will be even stronger than before, and will definitely cause a dimensionality reduction blow to similar drugs on the market!
You only need to take one pill a day to stably control your blood pressure 24 hours a day. Although this is not a cure, it is definitely the most ideal treatment except for a cure.
Favorability: 60
In just a moment, a digit suddenly appeared in front of the favorability score that was originally zero.
“New drug development can be completed directly, and subsequent research and development projects can take it to a higher level, so it’s not an exaggeration to call it a win-win situation, right?”
Xia Xu waited quietly as Jiang Hai quickly glanced through the document before speaking with a smile.
"But from a business perspective, this is not a win-win situation. Besides, Boss Xia, you just lied. After all, Xinghai Venture Capital is targeting new drugs."
Jiang Hai smiled helplessly.
"In business, it's a matter of buying low and selling high on a voluntary basis. I have the key intelligence and information gap, so I should naturally gain the corresponding benefits."
Xia Xu shrugged and smiled, "After all, you can't ask me to do business as charity, right?"
“That makes sense.”
Jiang Hai nodded.
Xinghai Venture Capital's appetite may be a little too big this time, but greed is the nature of business, and this is actually just a normal venture capital investment.
Don't forget that he is now in an extremely passive position.
What Boss Xia said before was not nonsense. If the negotiations are successful, it would be a joke. If the negotiations fail, those would be real threats, or examples that are about to happen.
Even if Xinghai Venture Capital did not tell him these things and could not successfully acquire his shares, it could still dilute the shares first or control him in the new drug project.
It's just that this will delay the process longer and bring less benefits.
It can be said that he was bound to suffer this loss, and even the emergence of Xinghai Venture Capital gave him some benefits in various senses.
The news about the missing technology for the new drug was brought by Xinghai Venture Capital. Only with this "cause" can the new drug be successfully developed and put on the market.
From a business perspective, if there were no Xinghai Venture Capital, it would be unknown when or even if he could complete the new drug, and he might have gone bankrupt before that.
In this case, let alone the profits generated by the new drugs, even the current profits cannot be kept. After all, the price offered by Xinghai Venture Capital to acquire Tonghe Pharmaceutical carried a very considerable premium.
On a personal level, the arrival of Xinghai Venture Capital helped him develop new drugs and brought in controlled-release technology that can make the drug more effective. His mother's condition can now be stabilized and controlled, and the goal he has been pursuing has been achieved.
Everyone has greed.
But after thinking this through, Jiang Hai's reluctance caused by greed was relieved, and he took the initiative to face Chen Leyao: "I think you can take out the equity transaction contract now, Miss Chen."
Favorability: 70
On the attribute panel, the favorability quietly increased by ten points again.
This small change made Xia Xu look at Jiang Hai differently.
He seemed to see a little bit of Hong Bo's shadow in Jiang Hai.
The previous favorability surged by 60 points, most of which was probably due to the completion of the new drug or even the improvement and strengthening of the new drug. In essence, it came from Jiang Hai's obsession and his affection and filial piety towards his parents.
But after that, it actually increased by another ten points, which can only be described as "character".
Even though there are only ten points, the higher the favorability is, the harder it is to increase. Normally, increasing these ten points is no easier than the previous fifty or sixty points.
The fact that it could trigger such a substantial growth again instead of decreasing undoubtedly showed that Jiang Hai still maintained a high degree of rationality under the pursuit of interests and greed, and put him and Xing Haifeng in a position of gratitude with some logic.
This is absolutely rare and valuable. It can even be said that most people cannot do it. Most people will only feel resentment and feel that he has taken away the wealth that should belong to them.
