37: Chapter 37 Mitt West

...

"Mr. Mario, we look forward to cooperating with UPS. Rest assured, our Third-Party Technology team is completely trustworthy," said the woman in a white office suit with a brilliant smile.

"...I believe so."

The legal teams from both sides filed out. Mario, the UPS representative, left looking dazed, as if he had suffered a major blow. This young woman from the Central Continent was truly formidable.

A moment later, everyone except the young woman had left the conference room. It was then that Lin Fang walked in.

"Yes! Boss, the price of 200 million dollars is just too sweet!"

Upon seeing Lin Fang, Xu Anqing couldn't contain her excitement and cheered.

"It's simple logic. Not agreeing would mean even greater losses. Besides, you already knew UPS's bottom line," Lin Fang said calmly.

Xu Anqing gave an embarrassed giggle. Thanks to the business intelligence obtained through Black Brother, in her eyes, the other side's hand was completely exposed in this negotiation! Both their pride and their actual position were seen through.

Is this the power of technology? This feeling is just too exhilarating!

Times have changed. Since last month, with the application of ASC technology in the logistics networks of major global companies, its timeliness and convenience have been evident to all. The economic benefits it brought made logistics companies that hadn't partnered with Third-Party Technology drool with envy, and they came knocking one after another.

As their competitiveness declined, the world's largest logistics enterprise, UPS, finally couldn't sit still any longer. They sent another delegation to negotiate, and today was the day the contract was signed.

After a moment, Lin Fang asked, "How much usable capital does the company have right now?"

"7.5 billion zhongzhou currency," Xu Anqing said, glancing at the tablet in her hand. "Once UPS transfers the first year's payment, our usable funds will be around 10 billion."

In just three months, Third-Party Technology had amassed nearly 10 billion. Combined with the remaining 5 billion in overseas accounts, the funds at his disposal amounted to about 15 billion. That should be almost enough.

If it wasn't enough, there were also the global accounts.

"Boss, any instructions?"

Xu Anqing raised an elegant eyebrow, sensing something as she looked at Lin Fang.

That afternoon,

Just as Mario had boarded his flight back home, a major industry scandal erupted in the American biopharmaceutical sector. The industry giant Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceuticals was accused of serious violations in the production process of its best-selling arthritis drug, 'Arthro-Cure'.

Someone Leaks on the social platform Twitter claimed that to cut costs, Johnson & Johnson had used substandard raw materials in the production of this drug...

A series of evidence was listed below.

In response to the wildly circulating information online, Rui Hui Company held an emergency press conference, denying the facts and calling it a malicious rumor intended to smear Rui Hui.

"Honk honk honk honk honk, you old bastard, you've got your comeuppance today," Adrian Luca, CEO of Rui Hui Pharmaceutical Group, laughed with a honking sound in his office while watching the press conference. Nothing was more delightful than seeing a competitor in trouble.

Just as he was laughing heartily, Adrian's assistant hurried in:

"It's bad, Mr. Adrian. Some terrible news about us has started circulating online."

While the Johnson & Johnson storm hadn't subsided, another pharmaceutical giant, Rui Hui, was hit by a major bombshell. Their newly launched best-selling blood pressure medication, 'JX-200', was exposed online. It was revealed that Rui Hui Company had concealed two cases of patient sudden death during clinical trials, and even genuine clinical trial records had appeared.

"Damn it, find out who posted that!" Adrian roared, looking at the information online. "Who is responsible for this drug? I want him shot!"

The assistant quickly replied, "The Twitter platform is also investigating. According to them, the poster should have died ten years ago. This account shouldn't exist..."

"The person in charge has already been detained in New York."

"Arrange a press conference immediately!"

While these two companies were overwhelmed, negative news also emerged about another pharmaceutical giant. For a time, the American pharmaceutical industry was plunged into a massive crisis of trust.

...

One week later, on the streets of New York,

Zhou Hui looked at the target information and tugged at his tie. This suit was really uncomfortable. Following his boss's instructions, he had to 'package' and bring the entire family in the photo back to the Central Continent.

"What kind of organization is it that contacted me?!"

In the rented apartment, the portly-looking Mitte Wester felt a surge of fear looking at the information online. A week ago, while he was reading in his study, a technology company from the Central Continent suddenly called him, offering to hire him as the head of their drug research department with a very tempting annual salary.

Leaving aside how they got his private number, the figure they offered made Mite, who was unemployed in middle age with a whole family to support, seriously tempted. He was about to vomit from eating potato salad every day.

But in the end, Mite refused. He worried it was a scam. However, the other party didn't give up and offered to resolve all his concerns.

"Mr. Mite, to show our sincerity, we can have Martin Rella, who wronged you, sent to prison so she can also experience life behind bars. Don't worry about other obstacles either; we will send someone to pick you up and safely escort you and your family to the Central Continent."

"All you need to do is wait in your room..."

Hearing this, Mite was stunned. How did they know he had been framed by that bitch Martin Rella? That bitch had landed him three years in prison and cost him his position as head of the Rui Hui New York branch laboratory.

"If you can do that, I would be very happy to go to the Central Continent."

Recalling his half-joking reply, Mite couldn't help but swallow hard. Now, not only had they done it, but they had also caused such a huge commotion. Rui Hui headquarters would never let her off.

Buzz buzz——

The vibration of the desk phone brought the middle-aged man back to his senses. Seeing the caller ID, Mite's body trembled. It was that mysterious company. He answered, and the voice disguised as a young boy sounded:

"Mr. Mite, the person to pick you up has arrived. You and your family have half an hour to pack. At 2:40 PM, you will board a flight to Binhai City in the Central Continent."

After Mite hung up, his wife hurriedly knocked on the door, looking anxious: "Mite, there's a person from the Central Continent outside..."

"Don't worry, Valina,"

Mite took a deep breath, stepped forward, and hugged her, comforting her: "He's here to pick us up. We're moving to another place, where no one will disturb our family's life anymore."

Soon, Zhou Hui saw all the targets for his trip. Remembering his boss's words, the burly man tried his best to put on a smile that looked friendly.

"Nice to meet you all."

He successfully made Mite's 4-year-old daughter burst into tears.
