Chapter 354: A Glimmer of Miracle
Dr. Jerry took the actual medicine and went straight into the laboratory with Tom and Snoopy to start the production and research of the castrated version of the medicine. Zhang Ailun also went out for a walk around the mountain camp.
After waiting for a while, Mori sent him a message, informing him that he had led his team here by private plane. However, since he was not familiar with the road conditions, he could only land at a nearby suburban airport.
Zhang Ailun received the message and asked him and his team members to wait for a while. He called a few Beggar Gang disciples and drove with them to the suburban airport to pick them up.
The convoy drove down the mountain camp in a mighty manner and soon arrived at the airport. They parked the car nearby. Zhang Ailun and the Beggar Gang disciples got out of the car and saw a Cirrus mid-sized business jet parked at the airport.
A middle-aged man in a suit, sunglasses and a mustache was chatting with the medical team next to him. Zhang Ailun recognized him almost immediately. He was the pharmaceutical tycoon who had met Madison at the island party. Another person who had a good relationship with Madison was a shareholder of Blue Pharmaceutical Company.
However, Blue Pharmaceuticals is now in decline, and Maury Dees' Miracle Pharmaceuticals took advantage of the situation and picked up some bargains, acquiring some of Blue Pharmaceuticals' products.
Zhang Allen also immediately walked over and said hello, "Long time no see, Mr. Mori Deese."
"Hello, Hamburg." Moridis grinned, walked over immediately to shake hands and greet, and introduced the staff configuration of his medical team to the chief leader.
"This is Nasus, a senior researcher at our Miracle Pharmaceuticals and the medical director of the research department. He has studied the development of contraceptives and aphrodisiac drugs." Mori introduced.
“Hello, Nasus.” Zhang Ailun shook his hand with a smile and said half-jokingly, “You don’t have a brother named Renekton, do you?”
"Hello Mr. Jin, no, I don't have any brothers or sisters. I am the only one in my family." Nasus also shook hands with the chief and replied.
"Don't mind, I'm just joking. Come on, get in the car. I'll take you to my mountain camp. The drug research laboratory is also over there." Zhang Ailun smiled and patted his shoulder, warmly inviting them to get in the car.
Mori got into the car with his team. Looking at those fully armed Beggar Gang disciples, he was a little surprised, but he knew better and didn't say anything.
After all, the fact that the chief had engaged in arms trade with General Wood and privately owned an island and a mercenary team had spread in the circle, and it was not uncommon.
After driving all the way to the Chiliyad Mountains, the convoy climbed to the top of the mountain. Looking at the majestic and rugged mountain road, Mori couldn't help but sighed: "I didn't expect there would be a camp building here. Mr. Jin, how did you find this land?"
"We have to thank our old friend Priyan for this." Zhang Ailun smiled. "This used to be the territory of those crazy people from Heaven's Gate. Later, they engaged in human trafficking and went a little too far. They provoked me, so I took action to deal with them. I took over this territory and asked people to research withdrawal drugs. Priyan is also the behind-the-scenes investor of Heaven's Gate."
"That guy really likes human body research. I'm not surprised that he was taken advantage of." Mori nodded and replied.
As they talked and chatted, the convoy soon arrived at the mountain camp and stopped in the yard. Several people got out of the car and looked at the construction of the camp. Looking down from the top of the mountain, they could see all the other mountains. Some members of the scientific research team couldn't help but take out their mobile phones to take a few photos.
The Beggar Gang disciple next to him immediately stepped forward and warned, "Sir, taking photos is prohibited here."
"The guest should follow the host's wishes." Mori looked at the researcher, nodded immediately, and put away his phone in cooperation.
Zhang Ailun was not surprised by this, as the Beggars' Sect disciples had a very strong sense of security.
After taking them on a brief tour of the camp facilities, he headed to the laboratory and called over Dr. Jerry and several others who were still doing research inside.
"Are the new medicines ready?" Zhang Ailun asked.
"It's done. According to your request, we have improved the formula and removed the therapeutic effects against painkillers and opioids. The other properties remain basically unchanged." Dr. Jerry took out the new potion and handed it to several people.
"This is our drug research team. Dr. Jerry used to work in a mental hospital, but later he started researching drugs. He and his partners are all talents who used to participate in research and training in various departments. Now they are all working for me in the camp."
Zhang Ailun also briefly introduced the origins of the scientific research team to Mori and others.
Mori nodded, walked up and shook hands with each of the other people one by one.
"Can I borrow your scientific research equipment to study and analyze the ingredients of the medicine?" Nasus, the director of Miracle Pharmaceuticals, and other researchers took a few glances at the medicine and felt that they could not see anything from the appearance, so they asked.
"Come with me." Dr. Tom didn't mind at all. He turned around and took them to the laboratory compartment to start researching the product.
Zhang Allen took Mori and others to visit the laboratory. When they saw the priest and the Heaven's Gate believers lying on the hospital bed and eating liquid food, they were inevitably surprised.
“Is this the experimenter?”
"They are all members of the Heaven's Gate cult who are engaged in human trafficking. After I dealt with them, they deeply realized their mistakes, repented, and actively devoted themselves to scientific research." Zhang Ailun said concisely.
"..." Mori was speechless.
However, he went to Collection Island again last time and saw Prian. It can only be said that the endings of the two were similar, so he was not surprised.
After chatting for a while and waiting for a while, the researchers from the First Construction Research Institute came out soon with Dr. Tom.
"How is it?" Seeing them rushing over with potions, Mori also asked about the situation.
"No problem. This medicine is indeed targeted at addictive drugs and can have a certain withdrawal effect. There are no similar drugs on the market yet. Most of them are sedatives and auxiliary drugs. It will definitely have a certain sales market."
Nasus said excitedly, "As long as it passes the review and monitoring of the Food and Drug Administration and is developed under the guidance of R&D personnel, we will soon be able to put it on the drug production line and make money on a large scale."
Mori was very excited after hearing this, and immediately made an offer to the chief leader: "Mr. Jin, I am willing to pay 5 million US dollars to buy out the production patent of this medicine. I wonder if you have the intention to sell it?" "We are all family, it's too polite for you to say that. The research and development patent of this drug has not been registered yet. Even if you use it for production, you can put a label of your own company's product on it." Zhang Ailun smiled.
"Then I might not even be able to walk out of this door." Mori's mouth twitched, but he was not stupid.
He added, "Mr. Jin, I really want to cooperate with you and make money together. After the launch of this medicine, as long as you are willing to spend money on promotion and find more companies to cooperate with, it will definitely have a certain market share, and the future value will definitely exceed 10 billion US dollars!"
"The reason I asked you to come here is that I wanted to reach a cooperation with you. This drug also needs your help to pass the drug test and register our team's research and development patent. As for the production patent, you don't even need to spend a penny. I can authorize you in the contract." Zhang Ailun said.
Seeing a smile on Mori's face, he immediately said, "But we want 70% of the money earned from producing medicines."
Mori was speechless and choked up. He patiently explained, "Mr. Jin, you may not understand the market for pharmaceutical sales. Our business is not as simple and crude as selling arms and recycling waste. It has its own economic system. Not all drugs can really make money, and the profit cycle will be very long."
"Sixty percent. I came to you because we are all friends and you are a reliable person! Otherwise, I can find someone else to make money together. I know that drug research is very expensive and the profit cycle is very long, but we have already developed the medicine, and the rest is just the pure profit from production, packaging and sales. You haven't contributed much, and I won't charge you production patent fees. We can make money together. I will take 60% of this drug and your company will take 40%. It's already very reasonable!" Zhang Ailun waved his hand.
Seeing that Morrie was about to say something, he immediately said with a straight face: "Although I don't understand medicine, I know how much money drugs make! Madison and I have made money for you without doing anything before, right? The videos of female celebrities should be very good, right? This is more than a billion dollars!"
"Don't tell me about betting on sales revenue. I won't sign a betting agreement with anyone. This product can definitely make money. All you have to do is get the production patent from me, then make money and give me a share of the money. It's that simple!! I won't even ask you how much you sold it for."
The main reason is that the pharmaceutical industry is too complicated. If you want to make a profit, you must cooperate with others. Otherwise, even if you have a good product, it will be useless and the lawsuit will take a hundred years.
The chief leader also learned a little about Miracle Pharmaceuticals’ PR and legal team. Since their debut, they have fought a total of 286 pharmaceutical lawsuits. Even if several cases were carried out simultaneously, the shortest case would take three months. In the end, they basically won the victory in the ruling. They can be called the Pizza Hut of California!
The potential competitiveness of this thing is too great.
If the leader chooses to start his own pharmaceutical company, with no one to help him, he will be buried in lawsuits all day long. He is either in court or on the way to court. He simply does not have the energy for that.
When Mori saw what the chief leader said, he thought about it and nodded in agreement.
"Okay, I can give you 60% of the sales profit of this medicine, and our Miracle Pharmaceutical Company will take 40%. If the sales of the product are really good, I can even give you 70%, but only in the first ten years of profitability. The patent validity period for drug development is only 30 years. Even after this time, other companies can produce it for free, and I can still give you 50% of the profit. What do you think?" Mori showed his sincerity.
"Okay." Zhang Ailun agreed readily.
The other party immediately began to prepare and draft the contract. They borrowed the printer in the laboratory and printed out two copies of the drug sales contract, which also marked the free licensing of the production patent to Miracle Pharmaceuticals and the subsequent profit sharing.
Miracle Pharmaceuticals is responsible for purchasing raw materials, production and sales, including promotion, advertising and packaging. It takes 40%-30% of the net profit. The team of the chief will take 70%-60% within ten years and 50% after the thirty-year patent fee expires.
"It seems that this medicine has no name yet? What should we call it?" Mori just realized that this product has no name yet.
Zhang Allen also asked Dr. Jerry for his opinion, after all, this medicine was developed by the other team.
"Let's call it the Glimmer Potion." Dr. Jerry replied.
"It's a very good name, Miracle Glimmer Potion." Mori nodded with satisfaction and printed the name of the product. After preparing the contract, he also handed it to the chief leader and several others for review.
Zhang Ailun took a look and found no problem, so he signed his name and shook hands with the other party with satisfaction, "Happy cooperation."
"It's a pleasure working with you!" Mori also shook hands.
Although the contract was signed, it has not yet taken effect. Mori also suggested: "I need to take the medicine and your scientific researchers to Miracle Company's production line for testing and production. By the way, I will help you register the research and development patent and pass the review of the Food and Drug Administration. The drug patent must also be filled in the name of the team studio or individual."
"It's not me who invented the drug. I'm just an investor at best."
Zhang Ailun decisively acknowledged the legitimacy of Dr. Jerry and his team. "At most, I can be included in the team, and everyone will have a share of the profits in the future! As for drug production, let them pick someone to provide guidance."
"OK!" Mori nodded in agreement.
Dr. Jerry and his colleagues were also deeply moved when they heard this.
As the boss, the chief leader could clearly monopolize the patent dividends, but he still had to give them a large sum of money.
What a wise ruler!
Zhang Ailun remained noncommittal about this. This was the wealth that they were supposed to have. Even if he distributed the patent to Dr. Jerry and a few others, he would be able to earn at least $50 billion in dividends in the future. He could make money without doing anything.
After finishing the videos and chatting with each other for a while, Zhang Ailun led his men to see Mori and the expert team off, drove away from the mountain camp, and took them all the way to the suburban airport.
Zhang Ailun watched Dr. Tom and two Beggars' Sect disciples disembark from the private plane and follow the people from Miracle Pharmaceuticals to the manufacturing plant. He waved goodbye to them until the plane disappeared, and then he drove them back to the mountain camp.
After getting off the car, Zhang Allen took out his cell phone and sent a message to Madison, informing him that he had recruited people from Silver Island yesterday, hired professional geologists, and bought mining equipment from Colombia, and that work was expected to start this afternoon.
But I didn't receive a reply from the other party. After thinking about it, I thought that the old man was probably still asleep among the women, so I didn't pay much attention to it.
There was no news from Acr yet, so Zhang Ailun simply went to the newly built shooting range in the camp. Under the guidance of the Beggars' Sect disciples, he took out a few semi-automatic rifles, adjusted them, and began to practice shooting skills. For a while, there was a lot of crackling and clanging, and the shooting range in the camp seemed to be celebrating the New Year.
