Chapter 218 Negotiation failed, full of ridicule
Even though Li Zetian is a compassionate person, Luo Hua is ruthless on purpose, and Li Zetian cannot accept them, just as he cannot betray Yu Jingqiu.
At this moment, Li Zetian pretended not to know anything, and then found an excuse to leave.
"Perhaps time will dilute everything!" Li Zetian comforted him.
…
Hong Kong was extremely hot in August. In order to allow Xiao Youran to spend more time with her grandparents to cultivate their relationship, Li Zetian and Yu Jingqiu stayed in Hong Kong for more than two months.
Li Zetian has not been idle in the past two months, personally promoting and accelerating the development and construction of the Hong Kong branch and R\u0026D center.
At the same time, he also gave many speeches at universities in Hong Kong, calling on students to work in their own companies after graduation.
Hong Kong citizens and students have a very favorable impression of Li Zetian. Many students regard him as their idol. In addition, he comes to the school to give a speech. After graduation, students will naturally choose Li Zetian's company. The education level in Hong Kong is extremely high, many universities are among the best in the world, and there are many talents. Their joining will undoubtedly strengthen Li Zetian's company.
After years of doing business, Li Zetian has realized what is the most important thing in an enterprise!
In the movie "A World Without Thieves", Ge You once said a very classic line: "What is the most expensive thing in the 21st century? Talent!"
Yes, this is the most important thing for a company.
As long as there are excellent talents, the company will develop. Even if you are the boss, there will be no problem.
If talent is lost, then the company is not far from bankruptcy.
Li Zetian has been working hard to learn how to use talents rationally, so as to "make full use of people's talents and make full use of materials". In his company, the treatment of talents is often far higher than the average level of the same industry, and the corporate happiness index ranks among the best!
On August 15, Dongfang Yuqin suddenly called him an emergency call from the United States, and Li Zetian decided to return to the United States.
During the phone call, Dongfang Yuqin said that because Lee Pharmaceuticals wanted to acquire Johnson \u0026 Johnson, Johnson \u0026 Johnson frequently appeared in front of the media and the public. Starting from June, Johnson \u0026 Johnson's turnover increased significantly, and the other party not only had no intention of lowering prices, but Instead, the acquisition price was increased to US$18 billion.
The expected value of Li Zetian's acquisition is between US$10 billion and US$12 billion.
After hearing what Dongfang Yuqin said, he couldn't help but frown. Now he had no intention of staying in Hong Kong. So that afternoon, Li Zetian, Yu Jingqiu and Xiao Youran returned to the United States.
At around 10 o'clock in the morning the next day, we returned to the villa in Beverly Hills.
Dongfang Yuqin was already waiting at home. When Li Zetian returned home, she told Li Zetian the details of the negotiation.
…
The news of Li Zetian's return to the United States naturally quickly spread to the United States and reached the ears of the American Johnson \u0026 Johnson family.
A middle-aged man named Robert Wood Johnson said with a smile on his face: "Haha, the richest man in China finally couldn't sit still and flew back to the United States from Hong Kong. However, even though he came, it still didn't help! He wanted to spend 120 There is no way to acquire Johnson \u0026 Johnson for US$100 million!"
Another man from the Johnson \u0026 Johnson family sneered: “Johnson \u0026 Johnson’s business model is stable and highly competitive. In its nearly 100-year history since 1897, it has not suffered a loss in a single year.
After so many years of unremitting efforts and innovation, Johnson \u0026 Johnson has become the world's most comprehensive and widely distributed health care product manufacturer and related service provider. It is currently the world's sixth largest consumer goods company and the world's most comprehensive A medical device company and the fifth largest pharmaceutical company in the world!
Chronos·Li is too naive. How could we sell Johnson \u0026 Johnson to him just to use his fame for publicity? No, Johnson \u0026 Johnson doesn’t spend a penny on advertising, but lets global media advertise for us! "
"Ha ha!!!"
The Johnson family laughs!
…
"Mr. Li, it seems that Johnson \u0026 Johnson obviously wants to use us for hype. They have no intention of selling the company at all!!! Even if we bid 18 billion US dollars, maybe they will increase the price!" Dongfang Yuqin Said angrily.
Li Zetian comforted him: "Okay, Dongfang Yuqin, there is no need to vent your anger on them! Stop this acquisition, I have other plans!"
"Mr. Li, what are you going to do?" Dongfang Yuqin asked.
Li Zetian said: "We don't acquire big companies, we acquire small ones. Some start-up companies, although small, have the technology and talents we need! For example, Amgen is a company founded by a group of scientists and venture capital investors. Founded in 1980. Dr. George B. Rathmann, who originally worked for Abbott Laboratories, is one of the company's founders and served as its first chairman and CEO. So far, the company has no products on the market, but their research has Very valuable! Once successful, it will be amazing!!!”
Li Zetian paused and said, "Since the success of Genentech, biotechnology has begun to develop rapidly. In addition to Amgen, there are many biotechnology companies around the world! However, these companies are all new companies. Acquire them, and It doesn’t cost much money! From now on, Lee Pharmaceuticals will be renamed Gene Technology! Without acquiring Johnson \u0026 Johnson, Gene Technology can become the greatest company in the world!!!”
"Mr. Li, are you planning to fully enter the field of biotechnology?" Dongfang Yuqin said in surprise with his mouth half-opened.
Li Zetian nodded and said calmly: "That's right!"
"Okay, I understand, I will give you your order now!" After finishing speaking, Dongfang Yuqin left the study.
"Wait," Li Zetian called to her.
"Mr. Li, do you have any other instructions?"
"After acquiring many biotechnology companies, Lee Pharmaceuticals changed its name to Gene Technology Company, so that it can truly live up to its name!!!"
"OK!"
The reason why Li Zetian changed "Lee's Pharmaceutical" to "Gene Technology" is, on the one hand, to set a tone for the company: this is a high-tech company that will focus on research and development of biotechnology in the future; on the other hand, "Lee's Pharmaceutical" This name has a strong personal flavor and is not conducive to the development of the company. The company belongs to everyone and needs everyone to work together, not for the Li family!
…
At 9 o'clock in the morning the next day, Lee Pharmaceuticals held a press conference and announced that the acquisition negotiations with Johnson \u0026 Johnson had failed.
As soon as the news came out, it shocked the world!
People didn't expect that billionaire Chronos Li would also encounter waterloo.
At this time, many people who couldn't stand it and were envious and jealous of Li Zetian couldn't help but ridicule him.
"Haha, I thought Chronos·Li was awesome, but he's actually not that good! He kept saying that he wanted to acquire Johnson \u0026 Johnson, but in the end, haha, he was slapped in the face! If you don't have the strength, don't say arrogant words!!! "
"Chronos·Li is so disappointing. I thought I could acquire Johnson \u0026 Johnson. I was looking forward to it for a long time, but I gave up!!!"
"This is America, not a place for you as a Chinese, Chronos Li, you should just go back to that backwater in China!!! This is the first Waterloo, and there will be a second and third time... …”
There are so many people who gloat over misfortune, and there are also many people who hate the rich. This time Li Zetian failed to acquire Johnson \u0026 Johnson, which gave them great satisfaction, as if they had defeated Li Zetian.
The media is also adding fuel to the flames, pandering to public opinion and belittling Li Zetian.
Li Zetian threw down the newspaper, endured it, and refused to be as knowledgeable as them. He thought to himself, if I fail again, I will definitely be the richest man in the world now, and I can't compare with you idiots! ! !
PS: There will be another update tonight.
