Chapter 1384: Pharmaceutical Companies (Three More Updates, Asking for Monthly Tickets)
"Help to find it" — this is purely an excuse, Yu Zhiyuan is 100% sure that the item is with Feng Jun.
As for how Feng Jun travels quickly between Zhongmai, he can't imagine for now. In fact, ever since he met Feng Jun, he has felt that his imagination is clearly insufficient.
However, Feng Jun is also very straightforward. He clearly states, "The item is indeed with me, but I don't intend to give it to you."
Yu Zhiyuan is a bit puzzled, "Why won't you give it to me? Haven't we always cooperated well?"
"I've already given you too many things, think about that big guy last time," Feng Jun speaks meaningfully, "Giving you everything isn't necessarily a good thing for you... I plan to give it to Yang Yuxin."
Yu Zhiyuan was instantly silent, as he only calculated the benefits and indeed overlooked this issue.
Recently, the Yu Family has indeed received quite a bit of benefit from Feng Jun.
The "big guy" is an unspeakable item, undoubtedly referring to the Lexington Guided Egg Escort, a very sensitive matter, just like large quantities of crude oil and high-quality graphene — also sensitive materials.
Purchasing large amounts of grain and appliances, however, is not that sensitive.
He finally understood, "That's true, let's leave this matter to Yang Yuxin then."
After hanging up the phone, Feng Jun smiled helplessly, the reason he refused the Yu Family isn't solely because of this.
The Yu Family wanting the information from Bai Rui Pharmaceuticals is likely for the same reason as the crude oil and graphene, to support state-owned enterprises.
But when it comes to pharmaceuticals, even if given to a state-owned enterprise, it might not necessarily turn out well.
Recently, Feng Jun has not only been dealing with stroke patients but has also encountered many cancer patients, learning about many shortcomings of pharmaceutical companies.
Poor new drug development could be overlooked, but even their ability to imitate drugs whose patents have expired is not even up to the standards of the Peacock Country.
This doesn't mean private pharmaceutical companies are necessarily better, but Feng Jun hopes that what he offers can be valued and truly make an impact, instead of being shelved.
If Yu Zhiyuan takes these materials, it is highly likely he will give them to some state-owned enterprises to show the Yu Family's selflessness — or to exchange for something.
Feng Jun has learned about Old Master Yu's mentality more than once.
He believes the Yu Family won't follow up on supervising the direction and use of these materials.
As he was thinking about this, coincidentally, Yang Yuxin walked over from a distance, seemingly looking to cultivate — she doesn't really enjoy cultivating in the backyard, sometimes heading to the valley's bamboo forest, and often coming to Feng Jun's spirit gathering array for cultivation.
Feng Jun asked, "A few days ago, I got some data from Bai Rui Pharmaceuticals, can you use it?"
"Of course, I can use it," Yang Yuxin replied without hesitation. They actually heard Feng Jun talk about the data, and even knew he brought back the server, "Are you planning to give it to me?"
Feng Jun blinked, asking puzzledly, "Since you can use it, why haven't you asked me for it?"
"Heh," Yang Yuxin casually giggled, "Anyone can use it, even just to sell it for money, it can fetch a good amount. I'm not specialized in this, so I didn't ask you."
That's the difference in people, Feng Jun nodded, "I'm giving these materials to you, can you supervise their subsequent use?"
"Yes," Yang Yuxin nodded crisply, she isn't smarter than Yu Zhiyuan, but she has been in contact with Feng Jun for a long time and had deep communication, understanding his character well, "Supervising is actually very simple, it doesn't require much effort."
Feng Jun didn't doubt her words, so he didn't bother to ask further, he casually took out a storage talisman and handed it to her, "This is a storage talisman of over a hundred cubic meters, there are some electronic devices inside, possibly with tracking."
"Okay, I got it," Yang Yuxin nodded and took the storage talisman. She knew something about tracking devices, though not particularly proficient, but that didn't matter much since there's always someone proficient, "Does this require money to buy?"
Their relationship is a bit delicate, Feng Jun didn't want to take advantage of her, he would pay her back if borrowed, and she didn't want to take advantage of him either — Director Yang, by nature, is quite a proud person.
Feng Jun was taken aback, understood what she meant, and then replied with a smile, "I don't even know how much it should be sold for, you handle it, if there's a benefit, we'll split it equally."
"You're being generous to me," Yang Yuxin glanced at him with a smile, "You made over a billion, and only gave Xiao Yu five hundred million."
"She wouldn't take more even if given," Feng Jun answered indifferently, "She's my disciple, giving her less is expected."
Director Yang's eyes glimmered with emotions, she half-teased and half-jokingly glared at him, "Then what about me, what am I to you?"
Such questions are not hard for a literary monk, Feng Jun replied smilingly, "You are my perfect match."
Luohua Manor was joyfully counting its gains, while Beauty Lin received the latest news: Bai Rui Pharmaceuticals, through negotiations on halting a project, learned from local officials that it was the Yu Family in Funiu Province who had targeted Bai Rui in the Mai Nation stock market.
One couldn't blame the locals for leaking this; they have no hierarchical ties with each other. The stock market maneuver was an independent action by the Yu Family, not the Guo Family, causing the local project to stall. Shouldn't they be allowed to explain at least?
In Beauty Lin's opinion, Luohua's exposure was inevitable—let alone the fact that Yamamoto Shushin is dead, the task was impossible to complete, and Yang Fengli and Fu Jianxiong have also disappeared. Sooner or later, Bai Rui would receive this news.
The problem now is that Bai Rui has identified their assailant and naturally locked onto the puppet master, Luohua Manor.
It's said... only hearsay, that Bai Rui Pharmaceuticals has placed a secret bounty: ten million US dollars for Feng Jun's head, fifty million if captured alive, and ten million dollars for each of the eight Luohua Majestic Warriors if captured alive, two million per head.
Who are the eight Luohua Majestic Warriors? Xu Leigang, Gazi, and Wang Haifeng are certain; Gao Qiang is also well-known. The other four are: Sister Hong, Zhang Caixin, Teacher Mei, and... Li Shishi.
This list is basically accurate, as these eight have been with Feng Jun for a long time, except—Gu Jiahui and Yu Qingzhu are not included.
According to Beauty Lin's information, Gu Jiahui became Feng Jun's disciple earlier, whereas Yu Qingzhu... is said to have recently become a disciple—the happenings at Luohua are essentially transparent with all the monitoring around.
But the crucial point is—Yu Qingzhu is the direct contact for the strike against Bai Rui.
So Bai Rui Pharmaceuticals does understand the Huaxia Country context, knowing who can be moved against and who would be inappropriate.
Beauty Lin was now lost in deep thought, pondering whether to tip off Feng Jun or not.
Actually, she was responsible for the Cancer Care Center; as long as the center isn't in trouble, it doesn't matter, but she couldn't just focus on Li Shishi alone, could she?
Li Shishi's situation had been thoroughly probed with no stunning revelations, leading to their digging up even her two failed romantic experiences during college.
Simply put, based on her personality profile, if she hadn't met Feng Jun, her best path would probably have been encountering a tall, rich, and handsome man in a coffee shop—not that she could win their heart.
Beauty Lin really wanted to tip off Feng Jun, but indeed, she was also frightened by his fierce counterattacks.
She'd already reminded Feng Jun not to do anything excessive, yet he went and took down Bai Rui's experimental center—alright, if not killing anyone means it wasn't a big problem, he indeed didn't kill when stealing data.
Later that car fell into the river, and Beauty Lin, examining it closely, could certainly perceive the oddities in such a bizarre plunge—it must have been Feng Jun's handiwork... right?
For someone good at collecting and summarizing information like her, Feng Jun's counterattack this time wasn't excessive.
Being shorted, Bai Rui Pharmaceuticals, would have been better off going along with it. Why did they have to falsify things to deceive the investors—now they understand the cost of deceiving investors, don't they?
However, even if it's not excessive, it's still killing, and Beauty Lin was a bit afraid of Luohua's operational capabilities.
She worried that notifying Luohua could lead to a slew of Bai Rui executives in Mai Nation suddenly dying under suspicious circumstances —like a river plunge, with few clues.
However, lacking evidence doesn't mean there's no problem, especially when multiple deaths are involved; no problem becomes a problem.
Luohua had many eerie operations, and Beauty Lin couldn't figure out how so many supernatural incidents happened in Mai Nation when everyone from Luohua was at the manor.
Thinking it over, she decided it was bad either way, and finally, with a resolute mind, she picked up the mobile phone and rang Feng Jun, "Elder Feng, I heard Bai Rui wants to do something to you... can this be traded for a Soul-searching Talisman?"
"That news really isn't worth a Soul-searching Talisman," Feng Jun laughed. Against Bai Rui, he was full of confidence.
However, one must remain modest, so he added, "If it's a scheme against me, then it's not worth discussing. I'm not afraid at all. What I want to know is... is it against people around me?"
His immediate concern was his parents. Having heard that drug companies in Mai Nation were quite shameless and would use any means necessary, he naturally worried about his parents. He also cared about others too, though they had some self-defense abilities.
"Of course, it's about people around you," Beauty Lin replied confidently—aren't the eight Luohua Majestic Warriors those around you?
As for Feng Jun's parents, very few think of them now.
Before knowing Feng Jun's capabilities, that might have been his weak spot—being a filial child and all.
But, knowing his capabilities now, at least domestically, very few think of controlling Feng Jun through his parents. Such maneuvers are unrealistic—unless some clueless fool thinks that way.
Feng Jun's face instantly turned serious, "Who in Bai Rui is targeting me?"
Anything else he could tolerate, but scheming against his parents was unforgivable, "You've got to explain this to me clearly today, or don't blame me for turning hostile."
