Open the era of black technology

Chapter 447 I would rather not have the 78 billion euro funds to monopolize this project [Second update]

Everyone was silent for a while, "Xu, we can't answer you now, we have to go back and hold a board meeting to make a decision." Daniel looked at Xu Ping'an and said.

"I understand, gentlemen, you have ten days to give me a reply within ten days. If you don't reply, it means that you have chosen to give up. I can't wait indefinitely." Xu Pingan looked at everyone and said, all serious nodded.

Everyone started to leave. Xu Pingan sent everyone to the car before returning to the office. He wanted to invite everyone to have another drink in the evening, but they all refused, and he was in no mood to drink anymore.

The next day, everyone left. We must go back and discuss this matter carefully. Everyone can be sure of the prospect of the project, but how long will it take to realize this prospect? The annual investment of billions of dollars is not a small sum .

Each company’s annual investment in research and development is only 60 billion U.S. dollars. Although it is not high, you must not underestimate it. These companies have a very strong foundation, and there is no need to spend particularly high research expenses.

If you count the experimental data accumulated over the years, it is absolutely scary. The existence of these companies is not five or ten years old, but decades. imagine.

This is the fundamental reason why it is difficult for other ordinary pharmaceutical companies to catch up with these top ten pharmaceutical companies. Why Xu Pingan invests huge sums of money in scientific research? .

The experimental data accumulated over decades is the foundation of these companies, and only on this basis can a new generation of products be born. Row.

Xu Pingan invests tens of billions of euros in research funds every year in order to close this gap. You can’t buy it with money. You can only buy technology ten years ago. No one will know the technology within ten years. sell to you.

The outside world is speculating about the negotiations between Tianqi Group and the top ten pharmaceutical groups, but neither party has disclosed any information. They only know that the chairman of the two sides sat down for a talk, and they left Tianchao to return to the company two days later.

As soon as he came back, he began to worry about the board of directors, apparently discussing the conditions of cooperation. Time passed slowly. On this day, Xu Pingan received a call from the shipyard. After evaluation, it turned out that the scientific research ship was not worth repairing.

The impact of the volcanic eruption has already caused irreparable damage to the hull. According to the monitoring of the hull, many places look fine on the outside, but the steel plate is already full of cracks. The repair price is not much different from buying a new one.

A ship worth more than 4000 million euros has to be scrapped. When the news spread, many people were surprised, including the top ten pharmaceutical groups that were still discussing at the meeting.

This kind of loss is really too big, not to mention the personnel, just the loss of the ship is too scary, and this is not over. A few days later, the Apocalypse Ocean Research Institute announced that the eight one-person scientific research submarines involved in the rescue They are all scrapped and are no longer worth repairing.

Adding up the back and forth, almost more than 3 million euros of funds have been wasted. This kind of loss is really unbearable for ordinary companies. Scrapped scientific research ships and scientific research submarines will be scrapped after dismantling electronic equipment in a Chinese shipyard. Dealing with it is also impossible.

The ten-day deadline passed quickly, and six of the top ten pharmaceutical groups clearly replied that they would not participate in this project. Only Roche, Eli Lilly, Novartis, and GlaxoSmithKline responded to participating in this plan.

However, the issue of funding needs to be renegotiated.

As the plenipotentiary representative of Apocalypse Group, Bruce went to the Swiss Roche Group to discuss this matter. Representatives of five companies gathered here to discuss this matter and strive to obtain a satisfactory result for everyone.

Unknowingly, half a month has passed, and the five groups, Apocalypse Group, Swiss Roche Pharmaceutical Group, Eli Lilly Pharmaceutical Group, Novartis Pharmaceutical Group, and GlaxoSmithKline Pharmaceutical Group, announced that they will invest huge sums of money to continue this new human race. project.

According to the agreement, four pharmaceutical groups will inject capital into the new human project of Apocalypse Group, with Apocalypse Group accounting for 50.00% of the shares, the remaining Roche Pharmaceuticals contributing 20 billion for 13.00% of the shares, and the remaining three companies each contributing 18 billion euros for 12.00% of the shares.

Every year, Apocalypse Group invests 12 billion euros, Roche Pharmaceuticals invests [-] billion euros, and the remaining three companies invest [-] million euros each. The contract period is five years, and the cooperation will be renegotiated after five years according to the situation.

The specific work will be led by Tianqi Group, Roche Pharmaceutical Group will send three people, and each of the remaining three pharmaceutical groups will send two senior researchers of related topics to join.

Apocalypse Group needs to invest in a new scientific research ship and eight scientific research submarines. The cost of the scientific research ship and scientific research submarines will not be included in the project funds, which Xu Ping'an agreed to.

The four families also dispatched a financial officer who has the right to check the accounts. Xu Pingan also agreed to this. Is the special fund dedicated? This is very reasonable and there is no need to object.

The Apocalypse Ocean Research Institute and the New Humanity project team have completed the delivery, and the personnel have been reassigned. From this month, all personnel expenses of the project team will be calculated separately. Xu Ping'an's cooperation has made the four companies feel at ease.

After the news spread, many people were shocked, including the six major pharmaceutical groups that did not participate. According to their prediction, no one would participate in this project. Unexpectedly, four companies participated in this project.

The annual budget of 46 billion euros is enough for this project to continue. Xu Pingan's Apocalypse Group holds more shares, but Apocalypse Group also invests the most every year, so it is understandable that the Apocalypse Group holds more shares.

However, the Apocalypse Group is not at a disadvantage. In order to join this project, the four companies also spent 78 billion euros to buy shares. It can be said that Xu Pingan has returned all the previous investment and made a profit.

Outsiders were shocked, and they all thought that Xu Pingan had taken advantage of it. Xu Pingan directly issued a statement on social media. If there was a slight possibility, he would rather not have the 78 billion euros to monopolize this project.

Seeing Xu Pingan's reply, many people lost their voices. With the media reports, many things were reported. Xu Pingan released the four pharmaceutical groups, and the government was involved in it. Xu Pingan had no choice but to let it go. Open mouthed.

Xu Pingan was really depressed. After staying in J City for a few days, he left directly and went to Jinling Song Xinyun to find comfort. Tianqi Island, the new scientific research ship set sail again after installing the equipment, and went to the place where the submarine volcano erupted. region to inspect.

Let's see if the corals and small fish can survive. If they can't survive, they have to think of another way. The other scientific research ship is starting to search for new submarine craters all over the earth to see if they can find them. the same kind of creature.

Bannon in Italy was very reluctant to start producing scientific research submarines. If Xu Pingan hadn't ordered it, Bannon would never have produced them. The sales of small single-person attack submarines are booming, and the profits are much higher than scientific research submarines.

More than 400 ships were delivered last year, and the delivery volume this year is definitely higher than last year. The new production line was completed in October last year.

Time passed slowly, and this morning, "Wake up, sir, it's time to have breakfast." Song Xinyun called Xu Pingan by the bed, and Xu Pingan woke up in a daze.

"What time is it?" Xu Ping'an asked.

"It's [-]:[-]" Song Xinyun said in a bad tone.

Xu Ping'an came here not to comfort himself, but to find comfort. This made Song Xinyun very dissatisfied, and he had no choice but to follow Xu Ping's temper.

"By the way, I'm going to buy a small gift these two days, Li Rulong's wedding is coming up soon, let's go together Xu Pingan sat up and looked at Song Xinyun and said.

"Why don't you let your Yiyi accompany you?" Song Xinyun said with a displeased face, very dissatisfied with Xu Pingan taking Miao Yiyi to other people's weddings.

"Why do old couples get jealous?" Xu Pingan said with a smile. Song Xinyun was blindsided by Xu Pingan's eyes and turned around. There was really nothing he could do about Xu Pingan's thick skin.

Xu Pingan smiled, got up directly to wash up, took a shower and changed clothes, and then left home with Song Xinyun to go out for dinner, the two of them didn't go far, they found a small clean restaurant and ordered a few dishes. Began to eat.

Next, the two went directly to buy gifts. Xu Pingan had already prepared the gift for Li Rulong. A luxury car from Jihao Company has not been picked up. I communicated with Jihao Company a few days ago and added more than ten Wan replaced it with a new generation of luxury cars that had just exited.

Song Xinyun must also prepare a small gift when going to participate. When Xu Mingyang got married, Miao Yiyi gave Xu Mingyang's wife a jade pendant. This year Song Xinyun accompanied Xu Ping'an to the past is no exception.

Jumping around, Song Xinyun chose a set of earl couple watches, a set of [-], without any counter-offering, Song Xinyun bought it directly, and didn't feel at a disadvantage, Song Xinyun is really not short of money now.

After making some preparations at home, the two of them took the plane together and set off for QD. Li Rulong devoted himself to politics and had no money. Xu Ping'an was responsible for the accommodation of the older brothers.

A few rooms were opened in a five-star hotel not far from the wedding venue. Ma Bo and the others stayed here when they came over, and Xu Pingan was responsible for the expenses.

The appliances in Li Rulong's wedding room were arranged by Lin Yide, and they were very complete. People from the branch came directly to install the wiring, and Xu Ping'an on the roof also sponsored a set of micro power generation devices.

The seafood for the wedding banquet was provided by Xu Mingyang, the tea industry was provided by Ma Bo, and the honeymoon trip after marriage was arranged by Zhang Wenyuan. In Li Rulong's words, with a few brothers, the marriage is purely for money.
