“I also find this feasible. I can even tell other companies to take as many orders as possible as they have priority over Huaxia. There’s no reason not to make money when doing business.”
“Okay, I’ll do as you say. I’ve already prepared a new position. You can take it when you come back,” Luo Yi said.
“Thank you for your trust, President.”
“It’s already dark in Huaxia. Good night. I’ll be waiting for your good news.”
“Good night.”
After hanging up, Zhao Wen stood up. “There’s nothing to worry about now. Go book two flights back to the United States tomorrow.”
“Got it, Director Zhao,” Meng Haiqing said.
“Oh right, Director Zhao, there’s one more thing. I forgot to report to you just now. The evaluation experts in the negotiations called me a lot during the day to ask about the final price and whether their benefits will decrease.”
“Tell them that the money they’ll receive will not decrease,” Zhao Wen said.
“We’ll still need them in the future. We can’t be too stingy.”
“I got it.”
Zhao Wen nodded. “You should go back and rest too. Don’t forget to book the plane tickets.”
“Okay.”
After saying goodbye, Meng Haiqing left.
Zhao Wen took off her bathrobe and prepared to rest.
However, at this moment, her phone rang again.
“Director Zhao, are you resting?”
The person who called wasn’t anyone else but Fan Qinan.
“I’m preparing to rest. Are you looking for me?”
“It’s nothing major,” Fan Qinan said with a smile.
“I booked a boat and wanted to invite President Zhao to visit Jiangjing to have supper together. I wonder if you will do me the honor.”
“I’m really sorry. I might have to let you down. There will be a second negotiation tomorrow, and I’m really exhausted.”
“President Zhao is too polite,” Fan Qinan said.
“Since you can’t come out, I’ll ask you some questions over the phone.”
“Go ahead.”
“We have some information that the six major international pharmaceutical companies have raised the prices of 25 kinds of imported drugs. Is that true?”
“Director Fan, you may have asked the wrong person about this,” Zhao Wen said.
“The Fan family has been a big family in Zhonghai for decades. You can’t ask me, a senior executive of a Meiguon company, about this kind of news, right?”
“I just feel that there’s something fishy going on surrounding this. It’s indeed a little coincidental.”
“I really don’t know about this. I’m really sorry.”
“Since Director Zhao is unable to answer this question, then I’ll ask something else,” Fan Qinan asked.
“Tomorrow is the day of the second negotiation. Will Pfizer make any changes to the price of the medicine?”
“I already told you during the first negotiation that 289 is our bottom line. Forget 9.99, we won’t lower our price by even one dollar.”
“I’m relieved to hear that. See you tomorrow.”

The next morning, Lin Yi drove to the Jinyue district and went to Zhonghai Huaxian Medical Hospital with Peng Xingguo.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Zhao Dongmei finally arrived. She handed an unwrapped medicine bottle and a thick brown paper bag to Lin Yi.
“Yi, the goods are here. I’ve told you countless times not to make things difficult for me.”
“Don’t worry, Teacher Zhao. I know what I’m doing.”
Lin Yi opened the brown paper bag and looked at the report. It was exactly what he had expected.
Only then did he truly feel at ease.
“But we had an internal meeting to study it. This is a very good proprietary Huaxian medicine. We want to do further approval and clinical trials, and we want to hear your opinion on this.”
“No problem. I’ll write you an authorization later. You can handle the follow-up procedures yourself, Teacher Zhao. You don’t have to ask for my opinion.”
“Really?” Zhao Dongmei was excited. “But don’t worry, if you really pass the clinical trial, we won’t take any credit away from you.”
“You’re too kind, Teacher Zhao. As long as I have this report, I don’t care about anything else.”
Lin Yi looked at his watch as he spoke. “Teacher Zhao, I have something else to attend to, so I can’t talk to you anymore. If you have any other questions, let’s… meet again in the future.”
“Okay, okay, okay. It’s settled then.”
Zhao Dongmei knew that Lin Yi had something urgent to attend to, so she didn’t talk to him much.
“Little Yi, you should go if you have something urgent to attend to. Don’t worry about me,” Peng Xingguo said. “I’ll just take a taxi back.”
