Reborn in America, I'm serious about making money.

Zhang San's investment went very smoothly this time. The establishment of the food company was quickly approved, and he purchased a piece of land for the construction of the factory and warehouse.

This food company will mainly produce ham sausages and instant noodles. The meat and wheat will be mainly imported from North America. Initially, they will definitely purchase from mainland China, but in the long term, they will still need to import from places like North America.

After signing the contract, he saw a simple pharmacy by the roadside and had another idea.

As the saying goes, a robber is not as good as a medicine seller; this is the truth, and there is no room for argument.

Zhang San once read a report about the popular white pills that cost one cent each, or ten for ten cents. They were paracetamol, very effective at reducing fever, and pain relievers, especially for toothaches, headaches, and body aches.

In his memory, in the 1980s, a fever or a cold cost only a few cents; later, when he went to university, a doctor's visit cost two or three hundred yuan; and after he graduated from university, a doctor's visit would cost at least a thousand or eight hundred yuan to get properly treated.

When he saw the pharmacy, he naturally thought far ahead. This place was full of wealth secrets. Don't underestimate this small pharmacy; it's a treasure trove for getting rich.

Back when he was in junior high school, one of his classmates owned a pharmacy. It was around the 1990s in a small county town, and they could earn over 100,000 yuan a year. There were a lot of people buying their medicine.

If that's the case, why doesn't he commit to it?

How much money does he need to build the skyscraper? At least around 20 billion RMB. If he supplies the steel bars himself, the cost will be greatly reduced, to around 10 billion RMB.

He is currently acquiring cement companies or building cement plants and large buildings, and cement is indispensable.

However, a large amount of cash will still be available, and this money will depreciate if it is not used, especially in the 1990s when the whole society was developing rapidly.

He himself did not expect that his supermarkets would develop so quickly, to the point that there were nearly 600 stores in first-tier cities, provincial capitals, and key cities, all of which were self-owned. Under such circumstances, 600 supermarkets are naturally inferior to Walmart's tens of thousands of supermarkets.

However, in mainland China, from the first supermarket appearing two years ago to the current number of supermarkets, it can be said to be very fast. However, Zhang San feels that it is still a bit slow. It is just that the speed of opening stores, that is, the speed of spending money, is slower than the speed of making money.

He arrived at the supermarket's temporary headquarters; the supermarket was eventually going to move to the financial building. Once you have an idea, you have to act on it.

Besides opening pharmacies, you also need to buy pharmaceutical factories, and in addition to buying pharmaceutical factories, you need to establish pharmaceutical companies. This integrated approach is the correct way to run a business.

Furthermore, a pharmacy delivery company should be established, which can not only deliver to pharmacies but also to hospitals.

The Shanghai Dahua Pharmaceutical Group was officially established. Theoretically, it is a wholly foreign-owned enterprise. As for why it wasn't directly named a pharmaceutical group, Zhang San was afraid of having the same name as a pharmaceutical group a few years later.

Can these pharmaceutical companies now withstand the power of capital?

Moreover, in two years, pharmaceutical factories across the country will need to undergo GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) certification. Will this require modifications to the pharmaceutical factories?

All of this costs money. What if you don't have the money? Should you just give up? That's impossible. You'll need to take out a bank loan.

He spent some time in Fengtian back then. There was a street next to the train station that wholesaled all kinds of medicines. They didn't have any proper licenses. As long as the medicine didn't kill anyone, they were fine. But their business was very good. It was really amazing.

In this primitive era, one could truly do whatever one wanted, with virtually no rules or regulations. One could do whatever one wanted, as long as one was bold enough, like Sadako taking maternity leave.

Now that it has been established, we should take bold action.

With the foundation of Stephen Business Company, the basic framework for establishing Shanghai Dahua Pharmaceutical Group was completed. In this era without many constraints, many things became very easy.

Across the country, while purchasing properties, a new project was also added: a shop for opening a pharmacy.

And he will also start to make room in his hundreds of supermarkets to open a pharmacy.

"Now we need to recruit more professional students so they can grow with the group. We need to recruit not only in cities like Shanghai, but also in other places. We want to build more pharmacies..."

Many companies in mainland China are currently operating at a loss, so it's natural to send negotiation teams to various places to acquire them. He even considered starting anew if they refused to sell.

Many drugs don't even have the concept of patents. Many pharmaceutical companies only produce one drug, and they rely on only one drug, while their other drugs eventually fail.

As for their lack of management experience in pharmaceutical companies? That doesn't matter, they can just buy a company.

In North America, there are many pharmaceutical companies that go bankrupt because a new drug development project fails or fails to sell well. It's often better to just buy one.

The rich are different. At his request, Wall Street investment banks immediately began looking for a pharmaceutical company that owned many common drugs. It didn't need to have R&D capabilities; it just needed to have many patents for common drugs.

It would be even better if there were more injections, such as anti-inflammatory drugs and antibiotics.

He's a rich man, so his way of thinking is naturally different. He can just buy whatever he wants.

He thought of something about that kind of medicine, sildenafil citrate tablets, and he could apply for a patent for it, right in mainland China.

This drug has been around since 1986, but it has always been used to treat cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

As for North America, he didn't know if the other party had applied for a patent, and he didn't want to alert them; anyway, he was used to being a patent troll.

He had people fabricate some data according to his instructions, while also having a lot of it brought over from England.

As for forgery? Impossible, absolutely impossible. He's just a data transporter. As for whether it's true or false, whoever uses it will know.

This was the most meaningful thing Zhang San did in the little time he had left in 1993.

However, what bothered Zhang San was that the researchers at the Shanghai Pharmaceutical Research Institute were looking at him strangely.

As he left the research institute, he realized something: these people, damn it, acted like I'd been there before. He was depressed all the way there, and looked out the window, feeling rather bored.

The patent application has been submitted, and all that's left is to wait for the patent to be granted. Moreover, he secretly had someone search the pharmaceutical giant to see if they had registered any related patents. If not, he would register them first.
