Goldfinger is a bit strange
Chapter 734: A bird in the hand is worth a thousand in the bush (1/2)
Liu Qingshan placed a bag of dried yew seeds on the table. The outer skin was already wrinkled.
Then he put a few pills into everyone's teapot. The boss brought the kettle and filled it with boiling water.
"Let's drink this today. Drinking it regularly can prevent diseases." Liu Qingshan brought a cup to everyone.
Everyone also knew that this thing was precious, so they took it carefully and waited for a while to soak it before tasting it carefully.
The taste is slightly bitter, but it has a natural fragrance and feels pretty good. wWw.seven
Especially those foreigners, who even ate the peel outside the seeds in the end.
Those from pharmaceutical companies certainly know that the yew seeds are also the richest in paclitaxel.
This principle is similar in nature: the best things will always be left to future generations without any hesitation.
After drinking a cup of tea, Liu Qingshan said:
"We have collected a lot of yew seeds this year and plan to use them to extract paclitaxel. However, we do not yet have this technology in our country, so we are looking for partners in the international community."
At the negotiating table, Kevin also became formal, with a little regret on his face:
"Liu, I thought you had changed your mind and were going to use those adult yews for processing."
As for the seeds alone, the number is probably about the same as the legs of a grasshopper. It has no meat to eat and it would be a pity to throw it away.
Kevin knew that there were many adult yew trees in this mountain area, and he thought it was a big deal.
Thinking about the last time I had contact with Liu Qingshan, I knew that this guy was very stingy, and of course he couldn't chop down big trees.
Liu Qingshan also smiled: "A thousand birds in the forest is not as good as a bird in the hand, Mr. Kevin, it is worse than nothing."
The world's yew resources are very limited and are only distributed in a few countries in East Asia. It is for this reason that the price of paclitaxel is extremely expensive.
Therefore, in this market, whoever can control the raw materials can take the initiative. Otherwise, Kevin and the others would not have to come all the way.
Liu Qingshan was not in a hurry because he knew that Pfizer would definitely agree to cooperate.
Even if they don't expect to be able to produce a large amount of paclitaxel, as long as they can produce a small amount and provide it to a small group of special people that the company needs to be friendly with, it is enough.
Xiao Li held his fingers and sat next to him. He was just here to have fun, and of course he wouldn't get involved.
There is also Zheng Hongqi, who is also sitting next to Xiao Li as an audience. He believes that Liu Qingshan can handle this matter well, even better than him.
If it weren't for his politeness, he would have gone home to hold the baby.
As for the people in the village committee, they basically just come to listen and don’t understand at all, so it’s better to say less.
If they can sell the harvested yew seeds at a good price, they will have completed their mission.
Kevin also had a headache. He had dealt with Liu Qingshan and knew that he was a very principled person.
The most important thing is that they are not short of money, so it is simply impossible to engage in any exchange of interests.
After thinking for a while, Kevin asked: "Liu, how many yew seeds can you produce every year?"
Liu Qingshan looked at Captain Zhang. He had been busy digging truffles for the past two days and he really didn't know the specific situation.
Captain Zhang coughed: "Now there are more than 30,000 kilograms, which are all processed. It is estimated that it can be harvested for another ten days, and the total is about 50,000 to 60,000 kilograms."
"It's still too little." Kevin shook his head: "Liu, how about this? We'll buy your yew seeds directly. Don't worry, the price will definitely satisfy you."
His proposal is of course the easiest way to do it. One person buys and the other sells. It is a happy cooperation.
However, Liu Qingshan didn't think so. Whether he could make money or not was second to none. He mainly wanted to introduce equipment and technology and sell raw materials. That was the least technical approach.
So he smiled and shook his head: "We have no plans to sell."
At this time, one of Kevin's assistants took over: "Sir, our price is absolutely sincere. Our purchase price for each kilogram of yew seeds is fifty US dollars."
When he thought about it, this price was already very high for a backward country. It was definitely a price that would make the other party jump up and cheer.
But he was soon disappointed, because not only did Liu Qingshan show no reaction, but even the old party secretary and others, who were smoking small pipes, also looked indifferent.
The assistant had some misunderstanding and emphasized again: "That's fifty dollars. If you convert it to your currency, it's two hundred!"
The old party secretary glanced at him and tapped the small tobacco pouch twice on the sole of his shoe:
"Nothing to make a fuss about. The truffles produced in our village cost more than one hundred dollars per kilogram."
The assistant couldn't help but look embarrassed, and sat down again. The sense of superiority in his heart immediately disappeared.
He suddenly thought that it seemed to be the same in their country. Those old farmers in Texas might look rustic, but they were all very wealthy.
Now there is no need for Kevin to waste any more words. If he wants to acquire it, it will definitely not work, so he can only think of another way: "Liu, can you tell me your plan?"
Liu Qingshan nodded towards him: "It's very simple. We imported processing equipment from Pfizer. Of course, you may need to provide a few technical personnel in the early stage. We will distribute the finished products according to a certain proportion."
So, it doesn't seem impossible.
When Kevin came, he had already talked to the company's president: the best thing is of course to directly purchase the raw materials.
If it doesn't work, then seek other forms of cooperation. Liu Qingshan's proposal, at least on the surface, seems to be fair to both parties.
The most critical point: that is the distribution ratio.
This is like cutting a cake. If you cut a bigger piece, I will have a smaller piece left.
Thinking of this, Kevin smiled and said, "Liu, you also know that technology and equipment are the key."
"No, I think the raw materials are the key. There is a proverb in our country that a good cook cannot cook without rice."
Liu Qingshan certainly knows this very well and will not give in easily.
"Liu, you can't produce paclitaxel if you only have raw materials." Kevin is also an expert in bottlenecks, or in other words, this is also a fine tradition of their country.
There is no way, who told them to be ahead in technology.
Liu Qingshan was also in no hurry: "Kevin, without raw materials, no matter how good your technology and equipment are, they can only be left in the laboratory to gather dust."
It was simply impossible to continue the conversation. Xiao Li was bored and simply stood up: "I'll go out for a walk."
Zheng Hongqi listened with great interest. In his current job, he often negotiates with foreign businessmen. Why doesn't he have as much confidence as Qingshan?
Liu Qingshan and Kevin were like two bulls on the rack, neither of them was willing to give in.
After a long stalemate, Kevin couldn't hold on: "Liu, since neither of us can convince the other, let's split it equally."
Kevin has also participated in many business negotiations, but he has never felt as frustrated as he is now.
Gu Mingming seemed to be in control of the initiative, but he couldn't get any benefits.
Liu Qingshan still shook his head: "This is unfair to us."
Kevin had an urge to beat someone up, but he could only think about it in his heart, because he had seen the strength of the man in front of him on TV, and he was definitely not his opponent.
He could only patiently ask, "Why?"
Liu Qingshan said calmly, "It's very simple. The raw materials will not change, but the technology will lag behind with the development of science and technology."
Kevin was now completely convinced. He swore in his heart: He would never sit at the negotiation table with such a person again.
So he raised his hands: "Okay, okay, then we will take 40%, is that okay?"
Liu Qingshan still did not nod: "I said that the technology will gradually lag behind, and our country's science and technology is also developing rapidly. Maybe in ten years, maybe five years, we can also research the technology of extracting paclitaxel."
"So, our cooperation also needs a deadline."
Liu Qingshan certainly would not allow the other party to exploit him endlessly. Now it's okay. The raw materials are limited, and the amount of paclitaxel produced is also limited.
If it is not until twenty years later that the artificially cultivated yew can be put into production one after another, then the output of paclitaxel will soar.
If they still distribute it like this at that time, then they will really suffer.
"Oh, this is impossible, Liu, you are pushing your luck." Kevin was almost driven crazy. In a hurry, he even used Chinese idioms.
"I am telling the truth." Liu Qingshan stared at the other party's eyes, like a beast staring at its prey.
Kevin also knew that what the other party said made sense, but he absolutely could not give in:
"Liu, it seems that our differences are a bit big, and the negotiations cannot go on."
Retreating to advance, this is Kevin's last trick. If he is familiar with more idioms, he will definitely be able to think of an appropriate word, that is, the donkey in the mountains is exhausted.
Liu Qingshan also stood up and stretched out his hand to Kevin: "I'm sorry, Mr. Kevin, then I can only go to Europe to seek cooperation."
Wait, what does that mean? Kevin doesn't want to really stand up and shake hands with Liu Qingshan, otherwise he will really have no chance.
His mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about the guy named Victor, although his superficial identity was just a businessman.
But he heard Xiao Li say with jealousy: That guy is also a writer. He recently wrote a great work and was sought after by mainstream literature.
For such a guy, there is no need to doubt his ability.
The most important thing is that this guy seems to have a good relationship with Liu Qingshan. Maybe he can really find a cooperative pharmaceutical factory in Europe.
This situation is what Pfizer least wants to see.
After understanding these interests, Kevin finally realized that he could not control his negotiating opponent.
So he smiled and spread his hands: "Liu, our company is really sincere."
"I am also very sincere." Liu Qingshan also backed down and sat back down.
Zheng Hongqi on the side understood it, but he felt that he could not learn it, because many times, when he sat at the negotiation table, he did not have the confidence of Liu Qingshan.
Without confidence, you will not have the courage to overturn the table.
Next, the two sides began to continue, mainly around the time limit, and began to grind.
Liu Qingshan proposed ten years, while Kevin insisted on forty years. He also knew that in another twenty years, with the artificial cultivation of yew trees put into production, the output would increase greatly.
In this way, their company will have at least twenty years to enjoy the benefits.
The process of tug-of-war was very painful. One year could be tugged for half an hour.
Captain Zhang was a little impatient: If it were him, he would have walked away long ago. This was too slow.
On the other hand, the old party secretary has been watching calmly, and it feels quite satisfying to see the foreigner being stimulated by Liu Qingshan and on the verge of explosion every time.
"Oh, Liu, thirty years, this is our bottom line." Kevin almost shouted.
"No, Kevin, fifteen years, this is also our bottom line." Liu Qingshan also refused to give in.
So the negotiation reached a deadlock again. At this moment, Kevin felt really exhausted. He stood up holding the table and looked at the watch on his wrist. It was already past ten o'clock in the evening:
“Liu, it seems we really don’t need to proceed.
This time it was definitely not a threat or intimidation. Kevin really wanted to go back and find a bed, throw himself on it, think about nothing, and have a good sleep.
His negotiating opponent was too difficult to deal with: extremely determined and, most importantly, extremely physically strong.
For the first time, Kevin realized that physical strength is also a very important indicator in negotiations.
Liu Qingshan didn't want to let him go now. He would take advantage of the opponent's physical and mental exhaustion and continue to pursue him fiercely in order to gain greater benefits.
So he smiled and waved his hand: "Mr. Kevin, I have a suggestion. How about I make a concession on the distribution of the extracted paclitaxel, and we both share it equally, and then the period becomes fifteen years. How about that?"
This guy actually gave in, and Kevin suddenly felt like crying with joy.
But he soon figured it out: the output was limited, and the other party wanted to buy time at the minimum price, which was impossible.
Kevin simply opened his mouth like a lion: "If this is the case, then we will account for at least 80%."
This was a bit too much. Captain Zhang suddenly stood up and said, "I might as well leave it to you!"
Liu Qingshan also shook his head: "This is impossible, Mr. Kevin, do you want us to work for you for free?"
So the negotiations once again entered a tug-of-war stage. Looking at the time, they were all rushing to twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.
Seeing Kevin opposite him, he was already furious, and Liu Qingshan finally saw:
"Mr. Kevin, I can give you another 10% at most, but your company must also compensate you."
"I heard that your company is developing a drug called sildenafil to improve blood supply to the heart. If you transfer this research to me, then we can end this damn negotiation."
Sildenafil?
Kevin turned around and pushed his assistant. The guy was about to fall asleep as he sat there: "Man, do we have a research project called sildenafil to improve cardiovascular disease?"
The assistant nodded vaguely: "It seems to be possible, but I heard that the effect is not obvious, and the company's research department is ready to stop this project."
Kevin's face showed his first smile tonight: "Liu, I need to make a call to the company now."
The corners of Liu Qingshan's mouth were also slightly raised. Yes, he had already set his sights on that kind of small blue film, which has a profit margin of tens of billions of dollars.

Only blood and mud mixed with minced meat, dust, and paper were left, indistinguishable from each other, which was shocking.
Not far away, a broken carriage was stuck deep in the mud, full of sadness. Only an abandoned rabbit doll hung on the shaft, swaying in the wind.
The white fluff has long been soaked into wet red, full of eerieness.
The turbid eyes seemed to have some residual resentment, looking lonely at the mottled rocks in front of them.
There, a figure was lying down.
This was a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, his clothes were torn and covered with dirt, and he had a broken leather bag tied around his waist.
