I looked at my father Jackie Chan in 1988

Fall in love with you, I look forward to my father Jackie Chan in 1988

In this time and space, Ji Sheng has never slept so dead.

Maybe it was because he took the initiative to put in some energy last night, and he was very tired.

Even if he is woken up by the phone now, Ji Sheng still has a strong sense of hunger, even though he ate a lot last night.

"Hello?" Ji Sheng said instinctively.

Steve White's voice came from the other end, "Boss, there is a gentleman named Joshua Berger who said that he has an appointment with you at the company at ten o'clock in the morning. He has been waiting here for a long time. Will you still come to the company?"

Ji Sheng froze for a moment, "What time is it?"

Steve White said, "Eleven thirty."

I go!

More than eleven hours of sleep?

Ji Sheng has never slept for such a long time in this time and space, but he still felt a little tired and wanted to eat urgently. He thought for a while, "Arrange a restaurant for me and Joshua Borg, just say I invite him Have lunch, and we'll talk after we're done."

"Okay." Steve White agreed.

Ji Sheng got up to freshen up.

As soon as I got to know Steve White, I called and told him the address of the restaurant.

Ji Sheng put on his coat and went downstairs to drive.

The restaurant was not far from the hotel, and he drove there quickly. At the same time, he also met Joshua Berger himself.

This is a 37-year-old white man, tall, estimated to be 1.9 meters [-], he wears thick rimless glasses, his beard is not shaved, and he is wearing a season's dark red striped formal suit , still buttoning his coat when sitting, but the folds of the shirt suggest that this is neither his everyday attire nor his favourite.

Ji Sheng stood by the dining table and asked, "Joshua Berger?"

Joshua Borg quickly stood up and stretched out his vigorous and powerful right hand, "Mr. Ji, hello, I'm Joshua Borg."

Ji Sheng shook hands with him, and apologized: "Last night, I was a little tired, and I couldn't get up this morning, so you have been waiting in the company for a long time."

"It just so happens that I can have lunch." Joshua Borg joked.

Ji Sheng was amused by him, and when he sat down, he also invited him to sit down with him.

After sitting down, Ji Sheng said while ordering: "I heard that you worked in Merck before. At the age of 35, you were already a senior director of the basic chemistry department of Merck. Most chemists at this age are still synthesizing molecules in front of the laboratory bench. And you already have [-] patents, and you are considered to be a strong candidate to take charge of Merck, a pharmaceutical giant in the future, why did you suddenly resign and start your own business?"

Joshua Borg looked very seriously, "I want to change the entire pharmaceutical industry. Although Merck is a pharmaceutical giant, it cannot allow me to realize this dream."

Ji Sheng didn't expect his ambitions to be so huge. Although he knew that many biotech companies would elaborate and exaggerate stories in order to seek investment from Wall Street, Joshua Berger didn't say a word about the story just now, just Expounding the grand plan and great wish of the heart.

"I know that you beautiful Chinese people don't like to talk about business during meals, but if you want, I would like to hear about the projects developed by your company right now." Ji Sheng said.

"Let me just say something briefly." Joshua Borg said: "The first project of Futai Pharmaceuticals is to improve the immunosuppressant fk-506, which is still in the experiment. Although highly toxic, it has the potential to be an important drug for organ transplantation and the treatment of autoimmune diseases."

Speaking of this, Joshua Boger's voice became sonorous and powerful, "We will redesign this molecule to eliminate its adverse reactions!"

Ji Sheng didn't know much about pharmaceutical research and development, but out of respect, he still said, "Tell me carefully."

Joshua looked at Ji Sheng in surprise when he heard the words, because the investors on Wall Street often expressed their impatience when they heard him say this, but Ji Sheng was willing to learn more about this situation. This investment has never come across.

Knowing that Ji Sheng was really interested, he became excited all of a sudden, and began to introduce in detail: "Futai Pharma does not intend to follow the old path of extracting natural products and then slightly modifying their molecular structure, but to design a building like a building." Designing drugs atom by atom, like a building or a computer..."

"Wait." Ji Sheng interrupted: "If you say so, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the pharmaceutical industry, which is second only to tobacco in the past 40 years, and the second most profitable industry in the beautiful country, will face great changes. The river will also be diverted, is that what you mean?"

In fact, he has the answer in his heart. The future Vertey Pharmaceuticals has indeed achieved what Joshua Berger said just now, but he still wants to hear it with his own ears.

Joshua Borg said wildly: "Yes, I believe that in the next 30 years, the pharmaceutical industry will be more meticulous and rational, and those who lead the change will become heroes, and my Vertex, or Vertex A company like Tai Pharmaceutical will become an industry model like Merck, not only in the field of medical science, but also the most admired company in the world!"

Ordinary investors would definitely scoff at him.

But Ji Sheng knew how great Futai Pharmaceutical was later on, and said very affirmatively: "I believe it too, you continue to talk."

Only then did Joshua Borg explain his company's projects in detail.

It involves a lot of professional knowledge in medicine and biology, and Ji Sheng will stop and ask carefully when he doesn't understand.

The two of them didn't finish talking until the meal was over.

Ji Sheng drove Joshua Berger back to the company in his Ferrari again, and continued to listen to the other party's introduction.

……

As a result, when he first arrived at the company, Ji Sheng was a little confused. There were already four No. 50 employees in the company.

One must know that he only issued a deadline-limited recruitment order to Carlisle Collens, the head of the general office, at noon yesterday, but he recruited so many people today?

I have to say that this person does have some abilities.

Just when he was secretly satisfied with Carlisle Collens' ability to work, Sophia Green also walked up vigorously, "Boss, Exxon sent someone over to sign the contract with us in the morning, and I will go immediately Several insurance companies had a discussion. They are willing to give our company a 5.00% commission during the remaining contract period. If the contract is renewed on behalf of Exxon in the next year, this commission ratio can be increased to [-]%, and the contract can be renewed later. Then we can sit down and discuss it.”

"Good job." Ji Sheng nodded towards her, and then said: "Get this matter done as soon as possible."

"Good boss."

Sophia Green turned around and went to work.

"boss."

"Good afternoon, boss."

The new employees greeted him one after another.

Ji Sheng also smiled and nodded in response.

Bring Joshua Borg to the office.

Ji Sheng sat on the boss chair and listened to the other party for another hour and a half.

"Probably that's it." Joshua Berger finished introducing his project.

Ji Sheng nodded and said, "I'm very optimistic about your project, now let's talk about how much money you still need."

"Let me explain in advance that Vertex Pharmaceuticals has no products and no income now. It will be a few years before we know whether there are products for sale. If you invest, the money is likely to be wasted." Joshua. Borg reminded very kindly.

Ji Sheng didn't take it seriously at all and said, "You just say how much you want."

Joshua Borg said carefully: "Our company currently spends about 500 U.S. dollars a week on research and development. If calculated according to historical data, it is estimated that the company will spend more than ten years and at least [-] million U.S. dollars Investment is the only way to develop the first drug on the market, of course, I know that it is unrealistic to ask you for [-] million US dollars, I...do I need [-] million dollars first?"

"How many shares are you willing to sell to me for 500 million?" Ji Sheng asked blankly.

Joshua Borg seemed to be prepared, and immediately said after Ji Sheng finished speaking: "20.00%."

500 million 20.00% shares?

Ji Sheng knocked on the table and didn't speak.

Joshua Borg didn't know if Ji Sheng would invest, so he was so nervous that he didn't dare to breathe.

Ji Sheng thought carefully for a while, Futai Pharmaceutical will become a top pharmaceutical company with a market value of tens of billions in the future, and if it can maintain 20.00% of the shares by then, it will definitely be worth tens of billions.

But with the current 20.00% shares, it is definitely impossible to wait until there are so many more in the future. After all, Futai Pharmaceutical will definitely need to raise funds.

"How about this, I will give you 1000 million US dollars, and you will give me 40.00% of the shares. I will not interfere with any operation of Vertex Pharmaceuticals, but I have the right to make additional investments to maintain the proportion of shares every time I raise funds, and before I go public, my The company must hold at least 20.00% of the shares of Futai Pharmaceutical, what do you think?"

Ji Sheng looked at Joshua Borg and asked.

Joshua Borg hesitated for a moment, "Do you want 40.00% of the shares?"

"That's right, and it won't interfere with your company's operations." Ji Sheng said in a very seductive tone: "There will be no investors in the entire Wall Street who offer such generous terms like me."

Joshua Borg gritted his teeth and said, "I promise you."

Ji Sheng snapped his fingers, "Very good, I'll call someone to discuss more details with you now, and then the two parties will make an appointment to sign the contract."

"Thank you, thank you Mr. Ji." Joshua Borg said excitedly.

Ji Sheng comforted him, and called Steve White and Sophia Green to come over and discuss some details of the investment terms with Joshua Berger.

The negotiation went very smoothly. Except for the somewhat controversial terms of the drag sale rights, Joshua Berger finally succumbed to the capital, and there was no other opinion.

During the period, Sophia Green wanted to sign a gambling agreement with Futai Pharmaceutical, but Ji Sheng stopped him with a red face.

It is precisely because of this that Huajin Capital obtained the right to lead the sale.

What is dragging rights?

Drag sale right refers to the right of venture capital to force the original shareholders of the company to participate in the sale of the company initiated by investors. Venture capital has the right to force the original shareholders of the company, mainly refers to the founder and management team to transfer shares to a third party together with themselves , the original shareholders must participate in the equity transaction between the venture capital and the third party according to the transfer price and conditions reached by the venture capital and the third party.

It is usually used when someone is willing to buy, but some original shareholders are not willing to sell. This clause allows venture capital to force a sale.

Five days after the appointment, the contract was officially signed, and Joshua Borg left with the initialed contract.

Wait until people leave.

Ji Sheng, who was originally in a good mood to win Futai Pharmaceutical, was disturbed by someone.

It was Sally Hill, the director of the company's finance department. She came in with a lot of financial information, her face was solemn, and she said at the first sentence: "Boss, it's nothing for you to invest 1000 million in Futai Pharmaceutical, but the company's accounts It’s only 300 million, what should I do if I don’t have that much money for Futai Pharma?”
