Chapter 1309 Refusal to Cooperate, Transportation Issues
With nearly 600,000 doses of medicine, if each dose could earn around 18,000 yuan, then Ruiheng Group would have earned at least 10.8 billion yuan during its cooperation with Huayu Group.
This figure does not include the profits generated by the Xiongfeng Capsule. If the profits from this drug were included, Ruiheng Group would have earned at least 15 billion during this period.
This is equivalent to the profits that Ruiheng Group earned last year.
And now, Ruiheng has only taken less than four months.
Even with such lucrative earnings, Xiao Yunfeng remained unsatisfied and set his sights on the artificial heart that the research institute had just developed.
That's undeniably greedy!
"Chairman Xiao, you want to collaborate with Huayu Group on artificial hearts? I'm afraid that won't work!"
Lu Feng shook his head and refused outright.
"Huh? Why??? Didn't we have a great working relationship before?"
Xiao Yunfeng was a little anxious. After witnessing the benefits brought by the drugs produced by Huayu Group, he really didn't want to miss out on any of Huayu Group's products.
For him, the drugs produced by Huayu Group are like a money-printing machine for Ruiheng Group. Who would complain about not having enough money-printing machines?
"Chairman Xiao, this time is different from the past. In the past, when we cooperated, Huayu Group would directly hand over the finished products to you so that you could sell them directly!"
"But this collaborative model doesn't work for artificial hearts, because artificial hearts need to be cultivated, and anyone who gets an artificial heart implanted needs to undergo gene fusion and matching beforehand to maximize the match rate between the artificial heart and the patient."
"You are a veteran in the medical field, you should know the ins and outs of this, and you also know the difficulties of cooperation!"
Lu Feng took a sip of tea and explained the reason.
All of the above is true. He did not lie to Xiao Yunfeng. Artificial hearts do indeed need to be matched first, and then cultivated one-on-one in a targeted manner. Only in this way can the safety of patients be guaranteed.
Otherwise, the patient's body may easily reject the artificial heart, which could lead to a need for a new heart transplant or even death.
He's not short of money now, so he can't ruin the reputation he's worked so hard to build for a little profit.
Across from him, Xiao Yunfeng sighed deeply after hearing these words.
"I see. I was being presumptuous."
He said somewhat unwillingly, but the thought that other competitors also failed to obtain Lu Feng's cooperation gave him a strange kind of comfort.
Although no new cooperation was reached between the two parties in the following period, they still talked for a long time.
Lu Feng eventually accepted the pair of dragon and phoenix Taihu stones.
Adhering to the principle that "he who eats another's food is bound to do his bidding," Lu Feng agreed, stating that if Huayu Group were to launch any more pharmaceutical products, he would continue to cooperate with Ruiheng Group.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yunfeng's last trace of distress vanished. He had actually come with three purposes.
First, I am here to thank Lu Feng for his help to Ruiheng Group.
Secondly, they wanted to secure a collaboration on artificial hearts. As for the third point, they wanted to strengthen their relationship with Lu Feng and lay a better foundation for future cooperation.
After all, although Ruiheng Group has now entered into a deep cooperation with Huayu Group, the contracts for cancer-fighting drugs, nerve repair drugs, and Xiongfeng capsules are all separate and have time limits.
Once the contract expires, Huayu Group can refuse to cooperate with them at any time, and since subsequent new products are under separate contracts, they can also find other companies to act as agents.
Therefore, to prevent this worst-case scenario from occurring, he personally came to Shanghai and presented Lu Feng with a priceless Taihu stone, all in order to strengthen his relationship with Lu Feng.
Now, with Lu Feng's words, "We will prioritize cooperating with you when we have products in the future," he no longer has to worry.
The two chatted until almost eleven o'clock before Xiao Yunfeng got up to say goodbye.
in the office.
Lu Feng looked at the spot where Xiao Yunfeng had just been sitting, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
He was well aware of Xiao Yunfeng's thoughts; he was simply afraid of losing Huayu Group, his powerful backer.
Even though Huayu Group's current market value has not yet surpassed Ruiheng's, judging from Xiao Yunfeng's attitude, he has already placed himself below Huayu Group.
He was pleased with their sensible attitude, so he didn't mind letting these people follow Huayu Group around and eat their fill.
Of course, having these people around saved him a lot of trouble.
With these groups leading the charge overseas, he and Huayu Group only need to focus on manufacturing; those foreign affairs will naturally be handled by these people.
In other words, companies like Ruiheng and Shenlan have now become regional contractors for Huayu Group.
The only difference is that the contractors in China contract with a city or a province, while Ruiheng and his team contract with a country or even multiple countries.
To give an example, Huayu is now equivalent to Nvidia in the chip industry, while Ruiheng and others are equivalent to distributors of companies like Starmicro, Jiaji, and ShuoAS.
This is no exaggeration. In fact, in some ways, Huayu is even more capable than Nvidia. After all, Nvidia is not the only company in the world that manufactures chips, but only Huayu can produce anti-cancer drugs and nerve repair drugs.
"Sigh! Artificial hearts are still a bit more troublesome compared to these ready-made drugs!"
Lu Feng frowned as he stroked the engagement ring on his hand.
If what Xue Han said is true, if a patient wants a heart transplant, they must be matched in advance, and then Huayu will cultivate an artificial heart specifically for the patient's body.
This would significantly increase the level of trouble and raise the costs.
And most importantly, it involves transportation.
The most advanced technology on Earth can only guarantee the survival of a heart for about six hours. Once that time is exceeded, the heart loses its value for transplantation.
Six hours sounds like a long time, but in reality, it's difficult to transport even to Asia, let alone Europe or the Americas.
After all, there aren't that many planes, and even if they could be transported, it would take a long time to get from the airport to hospitals in various countries, making conventional methods difficult to implement in this regard.
To put it bluntly, by the time the heart arrives, the patient might already be dead on the operating table.
Of course, one could choose not to do business abroad, making artificial hearts exclusively available in China. As for foreign heart disease patients, if they have the money to come to China for the procedure, then they can have it done; if they don't have the money? Then they can just wait to die.
However, this deviated from Lu Feng's original intention. What he wanted was a medical empire that could influence the entire country, not a domestic group that could only be confined to China.
