Chapter 544: You’re Talking About Equality With Me?

Although there were many foreigners in Zhao Wen’s group, these people understood Huaxian and could even communicate directly in the language, so they could understand what Lin Yi was saying.
“Mr. Lin, we’re here to discuss a possible cooperation. I hope you can treat us with the respect we deserve.”
“Take a look in the mirror. Who would have a long face when discussing cooperation?” Lin Yi said.
“Are you here to talk about cooperation or are you here to visit my grave? Even if you f*cking came to visit my grave, you didn’t bring any paper money with you. I’m really impressed. If you don’t know how to act cool, don’t even try to pretend. You must be drunk.”
Lin Yi’s combination punch stunned Frey, Wei Kang, and the others.
Why was this person so unpredictable?
Zhao Wen looked at Frey, Wei Kang, and the others as if they were fools.
This was only the beginning. Lin Yi’s ability went far beyond that.
‘Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been forced to take 10 Delaxin tablets and go for stomach pumping.’
Lin Yi raised his chin. “We’re old friends. We just want to talk.”
“Friendships don’t matter right now. Just don’t trick me.”
“You’re scared just because of this? You have to grow a spine.”
“I won’t fight you again until I have absolute confidence.”
“What happens when you have absolute confidence?”
“I’ll crush you to death without giving you a chance to catch your breath.”
“Woman, you’re really ruthless. If anyone marries you, they’ll make you drink medicine in the middle of the night to make sure you never wake up.”
“It takes one to know one. I still remember the fact that you made me drink 10 doses of Delaxin.”
“Uh… Let’s not talk about those unhappy things now that old friends are reuniting.” Lin Yi was a little embarrassed.
“How’s your recovery recently? Let me do a follow-up consultation for you.”
“No, let’s talk about something else. I’m fine now,” Zhao Wen said with lingering fear. “As long as you don’t cheat me again, my heart can last for a few decades more.”
“Sigh, you look like you’re alright, but you’re still traumatized,” Lin Yi said, “I know psychology too, should I help you with your rehabilitation?”
Everyone, “???”
“Let’s get down to business.”
“Alright, let’s get down to business.” Lin Yi changed his posture and said.
“Let’s not talk about the ibuprofen. The remaining 25 Chinese medicines will pass the final stage of their respective clinical trials in at most half a year. Do you want to serve as my proxy overseas? Take it as a form of compensation from myself. We’re all acquaintances, so let’s keep the benefits to ourselves.”
The atmosphere in the meeting room suddenly changed. Zhao Wen looked at Lin Yi and said,
“Although I’ve been living in Meiguo, I’m well aware of local tactics. Your countermeasures are simply superb.”
“No, I just think you’re a good person, so I want to give you some business.”
“Stop talking nonsense. Although Huaxia’s pharmaceutical companies are not as good as other countries, their strength is not to be underestimated. They can handle this kind of thing themselves. There’s no need for an agent, right?”
“But don’t forget, these medicines are all in my hands. I can sell them however I want. Who can control me then?”
Zhao Wen didn’t say anything. Others might not be able to do this, but with Lin Yi’s personality, what couldn’t he do?
“Cough, cough, cough…”
Frey cleared his throat and said, “Mr. Lin, let me introduce myself. I’m the director of Roche’s global marketing department, Frey.”
“I’m Wei Kang, deputy director of Merck & Co.’s global marketing department.”
Immediately after, the others began to introduce themselves. Their attitudes were much more polite than before.
Zhao Wen glanced at Frey and the others who were now introducing themselves.
Lin Yi was really a smart person. He could take care of these people with just a few words.
These people were probably also afraid that Pfizer would get the rights to all 25 drugs.
If this happened, their profits and market share would also be affected.
“Come on, since we’re sitting together, let’s talk openly. If you have anything to say, there’s no need to beat around the bush.”
Lin Yi leaned back in his chair, feeling like an ancient emperor coming out for the morning court assembly.
He really wanted to say, “If you have something to say, say it. If not, get lost.”
“Mr. Lin, it’s like this. Our main purpose for this trip is to jointly establish a laboratory for global medical research and development. What do you think, Mr. Lin?”
“Good idea. Go on.”
Lin Yi supported his head with one hand and continued listening.
“Our idea is to set up this research center in Minnisuita. It has the most advanced medical system in the world. The most famous Mayo Clinic is also located there,” Zhao Wen said.
“I heard that Director Li from the cardiology department worked there before she and I met. She will be very aware of Mayo Clinic’s standard.”
Everyone looked at Lin Yi. This was their main request. Zhao Wen had expressed it clearly. The rest was now up to Lin Yi.
“Mayo Clinic is awesome.”
“Do you have any other questions, Mr. Lin?”
It was said that it was the enemy who understood an individual best. Zhao Wen had already figured out Lin Yi’s strategy after being tricked by him many times.
Although she said that, it did not mean that she agreed.
“What I want to say is that the Mayo Clinic is already so awesome. Why are you still looking for me? Why do you still want to set up the research institute in Minnisuita?”
“What does Mr. Lin propose?”
“Set it up in Zhonghai.”
“No!” Frey said.
“If you don’t agree, then get lost.”
Frey, “…”
The expressions of the people from the six pharmaceutical companies were abnormally ugly.
They were clearly negotiating as equals. Why was he acting superior?
“Mr. Lin, do you think your participation is absolutely crucial to us?” Wei Kang said.
“It’s not that we are unwilling to move the center to Zhonghai. However, we’ve shown our professional attitudes, so I hope that you can treat us as equals.”
“I have money, status, and status. Why should I still bother talking to you?” Lin Yi said.
“I won’t say much about the profits these 25 medicines will bring. Just Didi alone, which I own, is worth 30 billion USD. Even your boss might not be as rich as me. You want to talk about equality with me? Are you even worthy?”
Everyone present was shocked by Lin Yi’s words and fell silent.
Owning a business worth 30 billion USD was more than enough for him to be able to look down on everyone present.
Zhao Wen looked at Lin Yi in a daze. The reason why he dared to be so fearless was probably because of his own strength.
“We have to go back and discuss the location of the research institute before we can confirm anything,” Zhao Wen said.
“Mr. Lin, do you have any other requests?”
“You want to set up a research institute because you want to develop more new medicine and earn the world’s money. That’s not a problem.” Lin Yi said.
“I’ll participate in the development of the medicine, but apart from that, I have two other requests.”
“Go ahead.”
“The price of the medicine developed by this research center in Huaxia must not exceed 50% of the cost. You can set the price as you wish everywhere else.”
