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

Chapter 626 WPG Brilliant Pharmaceuticals is in an even worse situation! Musk's private research team: Project NH?

What finally calmed Ronald down was the nature of Bright Pharma; it was a publicly traded company, and Ronald was merely the CEO, essentially the top decision-maker in management, not the owner.

Above Ronald was the board of directors, and Ronald's shareholding in Glory Pharma was very small, so Ronald chose to let things take their course.

After all, what's the harm in reporting this to the board of directors?
The top ten shareholders of Guanghui Pharmaceuticals are all financial giants. For example, the largest shareholder is Vanguard Group, the second largest shareholder is BlackRock Capital, and the third largest shareholder is State Street Capital.

Aren't these all capitalist giants from the Bald Eagle?
If we round down the super-thin version, it's like the meat is stewed until it's mushy but still in the pot.

With this in mind, Ronald silently considered the pricing of a 'copycat' HFAA.

After careful consideration, Ronald replied, "Our cost price for a copy of HFAA is $400, and we are willing to sell it to you at that cost price."

This so-called cost price is actually Nova Pharmaceuticals' most favorable price.

Nova Pharmaceuticals signed a best-favored-price agreement with Wugengtian for 2500 Xia Guoyuan per heart pill, which is approximately 400 US dollars, so we round it up to 400 US dollars.

Representatives from all three parties expressed satisfaction with Ronald's offer, as they had also investigated the price of the nitroglycerin pills and were well aware of how low the offer of four hundred dollars was.

Based on the current price of HFAA, if they demanded 2,000 HFAA pills, it would be equivalent to making a profit of approximately 30 million US dollars.

So naturally they were very satisfied!

With the price already agreed upon, the talks between the two parties proceeded smoothly, and the 'copycat' HFAA was quickly delivered.

After the representatives of the three major forces left, the closed-door meeting of the senior management of Guanghui Pharmaceutical could no longer continue, because everyone was smart enough to know that the three major forces were just the first wave of probing stones to ask for the heart-saving pills.

as predicted!

Less than half an hour later, the New York City government also came knocking, begging for their money.

Since Bright Pharma's headquarters are in New York, they had to give them some face and "bought" another thousand "generic" HFAA pills.

Next, the IRS came to us wanting to buy.

Guanghui Pharmaceuticals definitely has tax issues, for example, did it pay taxes on the sale of 'generic' HFAA?

For example, did Guanghui Pharmaceuticals pay taxes on the counterfeit version of the Energy Recovery Factor they developed through reverse engineering?
Guanghui Pharmaceuticals naturally compromised with the IRS again, paying the price of another thousand heart pills.

Then DEA also came to our door to buy medicine.

The reason DEA approached them was still about Glorious Pharma's previous reverse engineering of the energy restoration factor, which they used to create a hallucinogen, and which sold quite well in Bald Eagle.

DEA happens to be in charge of this area, so what can Guanghui Pharmaceuticals do?
Of course, to save face, I sold a thousand 'counterfeit' HFAA pills.

In addition to these local forces and their affiliated organizations taking advantage of the situation, even the CIA's White Eagle intelligence investigation agency, which focuses on overseas operations, has gotten involved.

The CIA's reasons are very valid!

They are assisting Nova Pharma in tracking down a shipment of lost goods.
Is that reason enough?
The CIA took away two thousand 'generic' HFAA pills, and Glorious Pharmaceuticals even expressed its gratitude.

Next, it was the turn of the higher-ups at Wasington DC to start taking advantage of the situation.

Wasington DC is a complex entity that includes both military and federal forces, and is further subdivided into multiple factions.

Because the group involved was too large, they needed even more heart medication, and they demanded a staggering 8,000 pills.

But you should know that after being repeatedly harassed, Glorious Pharma only has 9,000 heart pills left. Watsington DC actually asked for 8,000 pills.

However, the principle that "when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head" applies to every country.

Guanghui Pharmaceuticals' arm couldn't twist the thigh!

The Brilliant Pharmaceuticals, which ultimately planned to rob Nova Pharmaceuticals and eventually found a good way to sell the stolen goods, only managed to keep a thousand heart pills.

Even so, Guanghui Pharmaceuticals was still unable to sell the remaining one thousand nitroglycerin pills to the public.

The reason is simple: the board of directors of Guanghui Pharmaceuticals issued an order that, in order to protect the image of Guanghui Pharmaceuticals, this batch of 'generic' HFAA is prohibited from being put on the market and will instead be consumed internally by the board.

To appease the senior management team of Guanghui Pharmaceuticals, the board of directors also offered generous bonuses, thereby suppressing the relevant issues.

An eerily silent atmosphere filled Ronald's office.

Finally, it was Julia, the second senior vice president, who spoke first, "Now that we've all received bonuses, isn't that great?"

“Our original goal was also to achieve better performance and thus earn more bonuses,” Julia added.

As the main planner, Julia received a prize of five million dollars worth of Bright Pharmaceuticals stock.

Paying bonuses in equivalent stock is a better option because it makes tax avoidance easier.

Others also received bonuses, including First Senior Vice President Chapman, who also received stock worth two million dollars, as did Philip, the representative of Xia State.

CEO Ronald is the same as Julia.

Chapman was probably the happiest among the senior executives at Glorious Pharma, because he had hardly been involved in the matter, yet he received a stock award worth two million dollars.

This is indeed something to be happy about!
Philip, the representative of Xia Country, was also very happy. After all, he was just a branch representative of Xia Country. Although he was also the president of Xia Country, he had the lowest status among the four. How could he not be happy that he could receive a stock award worth two million US dollars?
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

The time has come to the last day of 2021.

In Xia Guo time, around 3 p.m., Musk used the Little White Dove app to connect with An Wuyang via voice.

An Wuyang glanced at the two times on his phone. At this moment, it should be close to 11 p.m. on Musk's end.
He put on a Bluetooth headset before answering Musk's voice call.

"Good evening, Elon," An Wuyang greeted him proactively, switching his greeting to the other person's time zone.

"Good afternoon, Andy." Musk's greeting also switched to Anwuyang's time zone.

"I have some good news for you!" Musk added.

"What good news?" An Wuyang asked cooperatively.

“Didn’t we previously suspect that Glorious Pharma robbed Nova Pharma and then impersonated Five Days to produce HFAA?” Musk reminded.

"You found out that Guanghui Pharmaceuticals is selling 'heart-saving pills' in the gray area?" An Wuyang immediately asked back.

Musk denied it, saying, "No, no, no! In fact, quite the opposite!"

“Nobody in the gray area sells HFAA at all!” Musk added. “What’s going on?” An Wuyang asked hesitantly.

“According to our analysis, if Guanghui Pharmaceuticals really did steal Nova Pharmaceuticals’ heart medicine, then it would definitely use Five Days and the HFAA to sell the stolen goods,” An Wuyang explained.

"Just a heads-up, after your five major distributors at 5 AM got their hands on the heart medication, did they openly sell it on the market?" Musk prompted.

An Wuyang suddenly realized that it seemed that both the Bald Eagle Federation Grand Court and the New York State Court had taken action.

"Do you have any inside information?" An Wuyang asked.

"I'm making inquiries, and from what I've heard so far, all of Bright Pharma's nitroglycerin pills have been sold internally, and the rumored price is quite low," Musk explained.

An Wuyang couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Doesn't that mean Guanghui Pharmaceuticals worked for nothing?"

"Well, you can't say it was all for nothing. You should say it helped maintain the relationship, right?" Musk said jokingly.

"Oh, and there's also a final solution for the Corey Asia Pacific White Mountains issue," Musk added.

"First of all, all work related to the Taibai Mountains, except for exploration, is suspended," Musk explained.

“The unique soil of the Taebaek Mountains is severely polluted,” Musk sighed.

"The current solution for these mercury-contaminated lands is to seal them off and await further research," Musk continued, elaborating.

An Wuyang asked knowingly, "Do we still need to explore the Taibai Mountains?"

“Yes,” Musk replied affirmatively. “Our previous exploration area was very small. Both our side, the Bald Eagles, and the Korea side believed that there were more special lands in the Taibai Mountains.”

An Wuyang scoffed, "We studied the samples you sent over before dawn, and do you know what we found?"

"What results did you come up with after working on this all night?" Musk didn't guess, but asked directly.

"The special phenolic substances in Korean ginseng are completely different from the energy-restoring factors," An Wuyang gave directly.

"Besides, I thought our Five Glows team was already a makeshift operation, but what kind of third-rate research team are the five major conglomerates of Corea?" An Wuyang complained.

"The research data you sent is completely different from the results we came up with at dawn based on the Korean ginseng samples," An Wuyang continued to complain.

“The Korean ginseng from the Taebaek Mountains contains eight special phenolic substances, but they are actually one type, just eight cis-trans isomers,” An Wuyang added.

“These special phenolic substances have absolutely nothing to do with the energy recovery factor!” An Wuyang added.

"So our judgment before dawn was correct; Coria doesn't have any special land features." An Wuyang deliberately reiterated this point, thus giving a foreshadowing.

Then, it would be logical to extract the characteristics of the Taibai Mountains through the Happy Life System, right?
Musk responded, "I already know about what you're talking about."

"Oh?" An Wuyang asked bluntly, "How did you know?"

"I also assembled a medical team." Musk didn't hide these facts.

"I assembled a medical team long ago to carry out the NH plan, but this was all done in secret," Musk said, implying that the information was classified.

An Wuyang raised an eyebrow. The NH Plan?

New Humans?

The New Human Project?
and many more!

According to Musk's previous statements, the plan is to first use Two Joys to cultivate the mother, and then continue using Two Joys to cultivate both the mother and fetus after the mother becomes pregnant. It's likely that Two Joys will also be used to cultivate newborns in the future.
An Wuyang secretly wondered whether Musk would actually use gene editing technology to modify the genes of newborns.
After all these procedures, the newborn does seem to be a new kind of human, right?
As for the issues of illegality and unethicality
These are not problems for Musk.

"Can I tell you these things?" An Wuyang teased.

“I believe you!” Musk responded directly.

Musk brought the topic back on track, saying, "We named the special phenolic substances contained in Korean ginseng the 'PSKG factor,' and then used numerical codes to name each cis-trans isomer."

"Through animal experiments, we found that when PSKG-3 and PSKG-5 are combined, they can effectively increase the level of mental arousal in experimental monkeys," Musk added.

"Do you conduct research like this in the early morning?" Musk asked.

An Wuyang denied it, saying, "I don't know. How would I know about these things?"

An Wuyang doesn't understand scientific research!
"I'll send you a copy of our research data later," Musk explained.

“Okay, I’ll let you know when we find out what happened in our follow-up research,” An Wuyang replied, but made no promise about sharing the research results.

Musk also noticed this, and the reason he sent the research results to Wu Gengtian so readily and casually was that he wanted Wu Gengtian to share the research results.

But An Wuyang clearly disagreed!
In the field of medical research, even if someone is a nobody, they are not someone Musk can mess with, after all, everyone has their own expertise.

Unless Musk raises funds to acquire a mature pharmaceutical group, what gives him the right to challenge Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group?
Especially when it comes to energy restoration factors, Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group is the ultimate authority.

"Are you really not considering producing more nitroglycerin pills?" Musk brought up the old issue again.

"If your heart medication gets into our Bald Eagles through special channels, we can make a lot of money!" Musk warned.

An Wuyang sighed, "Production will be suspended for now!"

At least at dawn, production will not resume on its own initiative. Unless absolutely necessary, the production plan for the heart medicine will be restarted at dawn.

As for what constitutes a situation that is truly unavoidable...
It’s hard to say!
This is because opinions on this issue vary from person to person.

An Wuyang hung up the voice call with Musk, and a moment later he received research data on the special phenolic substances in Korean ginseng from Musk. He glanced at it a few times and found it somewhat uninteresting.

After all, how can you be interested if you can't even understand it?

An Wuyang wasn't very good at chemistry, biology, or physics, so naturally he couldn't understand the research report Musk sent him.

An Wuyang planned to send them to An Huchun, Fu Yuhang, and Mo Li, so he used the Xiaobaige app to contact An Huchun.

While waiting for An Huchun to answer the voice call, An Huchun spoke first, "It's perfect that you called. I also have something to tell you."

An Wuyang immediately asked, "What is it?"

Isn't this a coincidence?
