The Super Rich: Start from when the family business is about to go bankrupt!

Chapter 590: The more WPG analyzes, the clearer it becomes. Overseas distributors like Norva Pharmaceuticals? They're barely surviving themselves!
In response to Wang Zelin's question, Gu Mingsheng gave a negative answer, "The forces in the three northern provinces, led by the Cai and Ding families, will probably suppress Wugengtian in an all-out effort to take back the corresponding land, right?"

Wang Zelin responded, "Let's see how this time Quanbaoshan is fighting for its interests."

"Let alone the fifth watch of the night, even if the first level of the capital city were to be crushed by Mount Tai, plus the three of us chiming in, do you think the combined forces of the Cai and Ding families in the three northern provinces would back down?" Wang Zelin sighed.

How can a conflict of interests be so easily compromised?
The same applies to Quanbaoshan.

The participation of the four entities in the first tier of the capital circle represents the will of the central government.

Even so, the Cai and Ding families wielded considerable influence in the three northern provinces, with numerous local governments in these provinces having connections with both families, thus forming local alliances of interest.

When faced with such local interest alliances, the central government will more or less choose to appease the situation.

Therefore, Quanbaoshan's profit distribution is that the four companies in the first tier of the capital circle each hold 18% of the equity, totaling 72% of the equity, which is equivalent to having absolute control.

This represents the supreme authority of the central authority.

The Cai family, the Ding family, and the alliance of the three northern provinces collectively acquired a 20.5% stake, demonstrating that local powers are not to be trifled with.

In the end, the Song family, the Wang family, and the Gu family combined only obtained a 7.5% share.

As for other factions, they don't even have the right to participate.

“Zelin’s analysis makes a lot of sense. In Quanbaoshan, the four families in the first layer of the capital circle, plus our three families, have not been able to completely suppress the combined forces of the Cai family and the Ding family in the three northern provinces. If Wugengtian were to monopolize the three places that contain energy recovery factors,” Song Yuanfang paused slightly.

“If it were in Shengqing, and near the Tianjingyan base, then it would be possible for Wugengtian to suppress all the cause and effect, since Wugengtian has done a very good job in sharing profits with downstream terminals,” Song Yuanfang explained.

“In that situation, all five major distributors under Wugengtian would stand with Wugengtian to the death, and the combined strength of those five companies is actually quite formidable,” Song Yuanfang added.

"It's a pity this is Changbai Mountain," Song Yuanfang joked.

Gu Mingsheng seconded, "Based on this analysis, it is quite possible that the beautiful Donglin area or Quanbaoshan were actually benefits that Wugengtian voluntarily gave up."

“At dawn, let Chen Hongzhi and his group occupy the East Forest of the scenic spot, and then let the forces of the capital and the three northern provinces share Quanbao Mountain. Then, at dawn, we can easily occupy the Songguo Forest Farm, since everyone will benefit,” Gu Mingsheng added.

"Given the current situation, and the fact that Wugengtian still holds the exclusive monopoly on the Vitality Restoration Factor, neither we, nor the forces of the three northern provinces, nor anyone else will easily offend Wugengtian. Therefore, the power structure of Changbai Mountain will be basically fixed," Gu Mingsheng analyzed.

Wang Zelin agreed, "Indeed!"

“If Wugengtian wants to monopolize three places, it will not only have to bear the pressure from the forces of the three northern provinces, but also from the capital region. This would be a losing proposition for Wugengtian,” Wang Zelin added.

In fact, the three men's analysis was about the troubles they might encounter at dawn.

When An Wuyang planned the "Five Glows and Light in the Dust" scheme, the corresponding random events hadn't even been triggered yet!
However, An Wuyang had originally planned to allocate a portion of the special land to Huamei Scenic Area and Quanbao Mountain. Although An Wuyang only intended to allocate a very small portion, as long as the special status was broken and others could see hope, the pressure on Wugengtian could be relieved.

Who knew that this would trigger even more system events, thus completely relieving the pressure that might have been encountered at dawn, allowing the "Harmony with the World" plan to proceed even more perfectly.

All I can say is that Brother Tongzi is truly amazing!

Gu Mingsheng then raised a new question, "Do you think Wugengtian knew that Quanbaoshan contained so many unique types of land?"

Wang Zelin fell into thought.

Song Yuanfang also began to think.

They have analyzed that Wu Gengtian is very likely to deliberately give up the Donglin land of the beautiful scenic spot and the interests of Quanbaoshan, but does Wu Gengtian know that there are so many special lands in Quanbaoshan?

As the mastermind behind it all, An Wuyang certainly knew!

Even the distribution of the special soil of Quanbaoshan was handled by An Wuyang himself, so how could he not know?
It's just that Song Yuanfang and the others definitely don't know that!

While these people were analyzing the situation, the influence of the nitroglycerin pills was still spreading rapidly within small circles.

The Japanese herbal medicine industry also received the news. After all, the Japanese herbal medicine industry pays close attention to Gokyo, so how could they not know that Gokyo has made new moves?
The main problem was that the information about the nitroglycerin pills wasn't kept secret even in the early hours of the morning, so the relevant information had already spread far and wide.

After some Japanese herbal medicine companies obtained information about Kyushinwan (銀心壯), they began to consider whether to proactively pledge allegiance to Gokyōten (五閣天) and become its overseas distributors.

After all, if you manage to get on the good side of the Five Eyes, wouldn't you become rich?

However, if An Wuyang knew what he was thinking, he would definitely laugh out loud.

Because such a thought is too naive!

Do you really think that becoming an overseas distributor for Wugengtian will guarantee success?

……

Nova Pharmaceuticals, Shengqing Branch.

It was nearly five o'clock in the afternoon.

Melissa was cornered in the office by a group of 'colleagues'.

These 'colleagues' include the Xia Kingdom representatives corresponding to Wugengtian's overseas distributors;

Also, Philip Joseph, the Chinese representative of Glorious Pharmaceuticals, who was once kicked off the list of overseas distributors by Wugengtian;

And Scott Wells, the Chinese representative of Novo Nordisk, with whom no cooperation agreement was reached.

Newman Miller, the Chinese representative of Grand Pharmaceuticals, spoke first, "Ms. Foster, does your company have any plans to sell the quota of nitroglycerin pills you have obtained?"

Philip Joseph, the Xia Guo representative of Glorious Pharma, added, "I heard that the first batch of 'Heart-Saving Pills' only numbered 100,000, of which your Nova Pharma received 50,000?" In response to the questions, Melissa retorted, "You actually expect to get a quota of 'Heart-Saving Pills' from our Nova Pharma?"

Melissa continued her rant, "We've all been rivals for years. Why do you think Nova Pharmaceuticals can't sell a mere 50,000 heart pills?"

“Actually, you have a higher chance of getting your nitroglycerin quota from Wugengtian!” Melissa added.

Johnson & Johnson's representative in China, Tom Housman, responded, "Melissa, you probably don't know what happened at dawn, do you?"

Tom and Melissa were quite familiar with each other, so Tom addressed her by her first name instead of 'Ms. Foster'.

"What happened at dawn?" Melissa asked curiously.

"The quotas for nitroglycerin held by Wugengtian and the five major distributors were almost entirely procured by the Xia Kingdom's imperial court," Tom replied.

This is not a secret.
Actually, many times, news from Xia Kingdom is usually known by foreign media first, and then it is transmitted back to the Xia Kingdom people. Isn't that a bit strange?
After all, some people just like to leak information first?

Melissa hesitated slightly. Had the nitroglycerin quota over there been centrally procured before dawn?
Doesn't that mean that the batch of heart-saving pills in Nova Pharmaceuticals' hands is even more precious?
Tom continued, "Melissa, Johnson only needs a little bit of nitroglycerin, and we guarantee it won't be sold on the open market."

Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceuticals is just preparing heart medicine for its cronies.

Kevin Bolent, the Chinese representative of East Merck, seconded, "Ms. Foster, East Merck also only needs a small amount of nitroglycerin to maintain customer relationships, and we are willing to purchase it at market price."

“We at Grand Pharmaceuticals are also willing to purchase at market prices,” agreed Newman Miller, Grand Pharmaceuticals’ representative from Xia Country.

Everyone present came from a top global pharmaceutical group, and they were well aware that the supply of nitroglycerin was currently far less than the demand, and even if they could buy nitroglycerin at market price, it would be extremely difficult.

"I'm sorry, our company, Nova Pharmaceuticals, has not yet finalized the pricing for the 'Heart-Saving Pill,' nor has it developed a corresponding sales strategy at this time," Melissa explained.

Philip Joseph, the representative of Guanghui Pharmaceuticals in Xia Guo, interjected, "There were rumors that the Tylande Pufeng Lotus Group purchased a batch of nitroglycerin pills from Wugengtian at a price of $3600 per pill, is that correct?"

Melissa was naturally aware of this deal!
Because the price cited is still the end-market price previously set by Nova Pharmaceuticals.

Without waiting for Melissa's reply, Philip continued, "Our company, Glorious Pharma, is willing to purchase these nitroglycerin pills at a price of five thousand dollars per pill!"

This price is very reasonable!
Melissa almost agreed!

Because Nova Pharmaceuticals only pays 2500 yuan to Wugengtian for the goods.

The reference exchange rate today is 6.3729.

That 2500 Xia Guoyuan is only about 392.32 US dollars.

Considering that Philip mentioned a single heart-saving pill costing $5,000, isn't Nova Pharma's profit margin too high?
A single nitroglycerin pill can earn you $4607.68.

A profit of over $230 million can be made from 50,000 units, which is indeed substantial.

If Melissa earns more than $200 million in profit for Nova Pharmaceuticals under normal circumstances, she would receive a bonus of at least $2 million.

However, this is not the normal situation.
Because the heart-saving pill project was a collaborative project initiated by Nova Pharmaceuticals in partnership with Wugengtian, Melissa played a very small role in this project, so she could not receive much bonus and did not have much decision-making power.

“Sorry, I need to contact headquarters first,” Melissa replied.

Melissa first escorted the representatives of these other pharmaceutical giants from China to the conference room, and then contacted Vale Simman, the CEO of Nova Pharma, in her office.

After waiting for the call to be answered, Melissa first explained the specific situation, including that the quota for the heart-saving pills at dawn had been centrally procured, and also mentioned the price quoted by Guanghui Pharmaceuticals.

However, Valais directly refused, saying, "All the nitroglycerin pills must be brought back and disposed of together!"

"Then at what price should we sell it?" Melissa asked hesitantly.

Valais did not answer the question. He continued, "To ensure the safety of these heart pills, after you receive the goods, you should send them back in batches, with each batch consisting of 10,000 pills."

"I'll give you another task: find out as soon as possible when the next batch of heart-saving pills will be ready," Valai added.

“Received,” Melissa replied.

After the call ended, Valais, far away in Ruixi, also showed a helpless expression.

Nova Pharma is indeed a powerful pharmaceutical conglomerate, but the problem is that pharmaceutical conglomerates also have corresponding allies with vested interests.

Given that the efficacy of the heart-saving pills has been verified, the acute toxicology tests were negative, and the raw materials were also fine, this batch of heart-saving pills belonging to Nova Pharmaceuticals was actually pre-ordered and sold out.

Europe is just a free market in name only!

Even a powerful pharmaceutical conglomerate like Nova Pharma, a world-leading pharmaceutical giant, still has to compromise when facing the old European aristocracy and the court of the European Grand Alliance.

Therefore, the heart-saving pills belonging to Nova Pharmaceuticals had already been distributed to the relevant old noble groups and the European Grand Alliance court before they were even produced.

Even after Valais pleaded his case to the heavens, in the end, Nova Pharma's allocation of heart-saving pills was reduced to a mere thousand pills.

Valais has no intention of selling these quotas!
Because Valais has angina, and the problem is getting worse, he wants to keep these nitroglycerin pills for himself.

After all, who knows when the next batch of heart-saving pills will be ready before dawn?

We mentioned before that raw materials are in short supply. What if the next batch of raw materials won't be ready for several years?

Wouldn't that be terrible?
That's why Valais asked Melissa to inquire with Wu Gengtian as soon as possible to see when he could produce the next batch of heart-saving pills.
