Silicon Valley

Although Silicon Valley is the representative of innovative technology, there are also many venture capital companies established here!

On a financial street in San Jose, Silicon Valley, Prestige Capital was quietly established. Originally, Henry planned to name it Williams Ventures, but the name was too long and took up the number of words, so it was called Prestige Capital.

Youdao is like his name, so Henry also hopes that the name of Prestige Capital can be as prestige as its name! ! !

Just after the company was renovated, Henry came over to see the effect. Although the company has already been established, it will take some time before the official opening! Now the company is still an empty shelf, not a single employee!

Henry walked around the company a few times and was about to close the door and leave when two people came over.

Both of them were middle-aged men in suits, a tall man with a full beard. Another medium build with glasses.

What's the matter with you? Henry asked.

This is also a venture capital firm? the tall middle-aged man asked.

Henry nodded, Yes, yes, this is a newly established venture capital firm.

Newly established? The two looked at each other with a hint of disappointment.

The two were the founders of Amgen Biopharmaceuticals, Dr. Rothman in glasses, and his partner Tony Lambert taller. From its establishment in 1980 to June 1989, after 9 years, Amgen finally developed its first product recombinant human erythropoietin (EPO for short)! This EPO has been approved by the US FDA for the treatment of anemia due to chronic renal failure and HIV infection treatment. However, the fate of EPO was bumpy and the promotion was unfavorable, and Amgen was suddenly unsustainable. At this time, Johnson \u0026 Johnson took advantage of the situation and wanted to buy out all overseas sales of EPO with 19 million! Amgen Biopharma, of course, didn't do it, so they looked around for investment!

However, the hope is really slim!

Nine years of grinding a sword, grinding and grinding, and finally grinding to the product, but still can't make any money, which investor dare to invest in it? ! !

Dr. Rothman and Tony Lambert were bumping into walls and dust. Just when they were desperate and wanted to agree to the request of Johnson \u0026 Johnson Group, they accidentally met a venture capital firm, and thought, they have to try it anyway, even if they will be rejected in the end!

So, there is this meeting!

However, when they heard that the venture capital company had just been established, they were all discouraged. No new venture capital firm would take such a big risk to invest in Amgen Biopharmaceuticals! However, Rothman and Lambert did not know that this meeting would change their lives and the future of Amgen Biopharmaceuticals! ! !

In the previous life, Amgen Biopharmaceutical Company was robbed by Johnson \u0026 Johnson, resulting in most of the company's early profits being put into the pockets of Johnson \u0026 Johnson. But even so, Amgen Biopharmaceuticals has still developed into one of the top biopharmaceutical companies in the world, with a market value of over 100 billion in the fields of human genome, cancer, neuroscience and small molecule chemistry!

Maybe it is possible to develop a genetic evolution medicine!

Henry asked about their identities, and when he heard their reply, although Henry's face remained calm, his heart was extremely shocked!

Your company plans to raise funds? Henry asked calmly.

Yes! The two nodded.

Henry invited them into the room to sit down and smiled at the two of them: It seems that we are very destined! You are the first customer to come to your door, so no matter what, our prestige capital has to invest in your company more or less. Row!!!

Rothman and Lambert looked at each other with surprises on their faces.

Henry poured water for them and asked, Tell me, how much are you going to ask for?

The two suddenly fell silent, thinking in their hearts, how much is appropriate. If you want more, others will definitely not give it. If it is less, for the company, it is a drop in the bucket. The two have been hit so hard lately that no VC firm is willing to invest in them. But now I have it, but I am afraid that I will say too much and scare others away! !

After a while, Rothman said tentatively, Ten million?

At this moment, the voice just fell, Henry's body leaned forward in vain. Seeing this, Rosman became nervous all of a sudden, and hurriedly shook his head: Eight million is fine!!

Yes, yes, you can invest 8 million in us! Lambert said hurriedly.

Henry was speechless at the time. The reason I leaned forward was because you really asked for too little... With such a small investment, how can I get more shares? ! ! Alas, I just leaned forward a bit to see that I scared you...

Well, I'll invest 100 million US dollars in your company and get 80% of the shares! Henry said pretending to be a fucking tyrant.

No, no, we don't need to invest so much! The two of them felt like they were riding a roller coaster. However, they also understand that the company has great potential for development, and they are definitely not willing to sell too many shares.

In that case... Henry thought for a while, then asked, Have you ever accepted venture capital?

When the company was founded, VCs invested $19 million in us!

Then how many shares do they hold in total?

45%.

Hehe, it's easy to handle! Henry smiled, Look, can you do this? Go and persuade them to sell all their shares to me, and then I'll finance your company!

Rothman and Lambert looked at each other, exchanged a low voice, and finally nodded: No problem, I can persuade you, but I can't guarantee whether they will sell the shares or not!

Don't worry, they will definitely sell it! Henry said confidently.

Amgen Biopharmaceutical Co., Ltd. can almost fool investors into taking chronic poison. For nine years, you have been burning money. As a result, the product came out, but it could not sell, and the company was about to go bankrupt!

In such a tragic situation, you are an investor and you can't quickly sell your shares to cash out? !

After Rothman and Lambert walked out of the gates of Prestige Capital, the two started talking to each other.

Lambert, do you think this company is a leather bag company? Do you really want to invest in us? Rossman said suspiciously.

Lambert frowned slightly, I'm not sure either! I'll see later, let's investigate this company!

Not long afterward, Rothman and Lambert found information on Prestige Capital through certain channels: “Prestigious Capital was officially registered on July 1, 1989, and its registered place was in San Jose, California, with a registered capital of $500 million. However, , the company legal person is an offshore company!

Many companies like to form offshore companies, not only to avoid tax, but also to hide the identity of shareholders. However, no matter who the legal person is, as long as Weifeng Capital has money! Rothman said.

That's right. Lambert replied, Then let's persuade those investors now!

Rothman nodded.

A week has passed, and Henry can't wait. Could something go wrong? Is there someone who can't cut the beard?

Shouldn't it be? No previous life...

Henry paced up and down the office nervously, thinking to himself, should he take the initiative to contact them?

At this moment, the phone rang, and it was Rothman.

Hello, I'm CEO Rothman of Amgen Biopharmaceuticals!

Oh, Dr. Rothman, hello! How is it, are they willing to give up the shares? Henry tried his best to sound calm, but he was very nervous.

They are willing to give up their shares, but the price may be too high...

How much do they want?

One hundred million! Rothman said. They said, for $100 million, they'd be willing to give you all the shares!

I agreed……

Rothman never thought that Henry would agree, and began to persuade him: Mr. Williams, I know this may be a bit much, but...

Just halfway through the words, he finally reacted, What!! Mr. Williams, you actually agreed?!!

Yes, I agree. I am willing to pay 100 million US dollars to buy their shares, and then raise another 50 million yuan into the company, holding 70%, what do you think?

Rothman swallowed and was shocked, Okay! I agree!

As soon as Henry heard this, he knew that it was done, and it might not be long before he became the boss of the world's top high-tech biopharmaceutical company! ! !

Three days later, when Henry drew out two checks, one for $100 million and the other for $50 million, Amgen Biopharmaceuticals finally belonged to Henry's business after the venture capitalists and Rothman signed. ! Henry is very unfamiliar with biotechnology, but it doesn't matter. Henry can provide funds, contacts, publicity and other resources to give Amgen a great help. With Henry, Amgen Biopharma is at least better than the previous life!

I just don't know how far Amgen Biopharmaceuticals will develop with the addition of Henry? If you can make breakthroughs in genetics, engage in black technology, develop genetic evolution medicines, and turn yourself into a superman or something! ! ! (Depressed, I'm about to fall out of the New Authors Signing New Book List, please support and give it a thumbs up!)
