Autumn had arrived. Cicadas were singing on the trees and the sun shining down their warm brilliance down on the lake. In Northern Botanic Resort, there was a small courtyard in the eastern bank. Sun Changle held his hands behind and waited for his guests’ arrival. When he saw Su Tao arriving with a foreigner, he turned to Fei Mingyang behind him, “They’re here.”
Su Tao had previously made an appointment with Sun Changle to go into a deeper discussion about getting Tosca Pharmaceutical Conglomerate into China. Today was their first meeting. Walking over to Su Tao, Sun Changle smiled, “You’re pretty punctual.”
“Fred is a professional. I have no choice but to be punctual with him supervising me.” Su Tao smiled.
“Come, let’s eat while we talk!” Fei Mingyang greeted out passionately. A table of food had already been prepared in the courtyard.
Pouring a glass of wine for Su Tao and Fred, Sun Changle smiled, “This wine is produced in-house by the resort. The alcohol content isn’t high, and it’s refreshing to taste.”
“Thank you!” Fred smiled. He raised the glass and took a sip. It tasted like a cocktail, which was refreshing. He even praised it.
Everyone chatted while they ate. When they were halfway through the food, Sun Changle took the initiative and smiled, “I wonder how Mr. Fred plans on operating the joint venture company?”
“I have already consulted the headquarters about this matter. They don’t have a problem with it. But I’ll need Mr. Fred to come up with a detailed proposal as soon as possible for us to go further into the discussion.” Fred replied, wiping his mouth with a napkin.
Fei Mingyang came prepared. He took out a document and handed it over, “Please take a look at it. This is the initial proposal.”
This document was translated into English, and the details seemed professional. Fei Mingyang had a professional team at his disposal. He might not have any experience in projects related to the medical industry; he wasn’t unfamiliar with such projects. So he took several nights to come up with this initial proposal.
Roughly glancing through it, Fred smiled, “It’s very professionally done. But I have a question of my own, and that’s your marketing team!”
The marketing team was the one that determines if Tosca Pharmaceutical Conglomerate could enter China’s domestic market.
“Then I’ll have to introduce another person to you. I wonder if you’ve heard of this person, Zhen Wei?” Sun Changle smiled.
Fred’s eyes lit up when he heard that name. Zhen Wei was the marketing director of Cambell Pharmaceutical Company, and Fred had been trying to get to this person recently. If Zhen Wei were willing to join the team and set up a marketing system, the plan would be half complete.
“Can you really convince Zhen Wei?” Fred asked.
Taking out his phone, Sun Changle dialed a number and smiled, “Is this Lil’ Wei? It’s me, Sun Changle.”
“Master Sun? Do you need me for anything?” Zhen Wei was having a meal with a few of his friends. When he saw Sun Changle giving him a call, he immediately walked out of the room to answer the call. He was a marketer, and he knew about Sun Changle’s network in this industry. After the Cambell Pharmaceutical Company collapsed, he took a short vacation. He had also received many companies’ offers in this period, so he didn’t lack in jobs with a group of capable subordinates under him. He was just taking his time to consider his new company.
“I am currently having a meal with Tosca Pharmaceutical Conglomerate’s representative in China, Mr. Fred. They’re looking for a vice-president for their marketing team, and I’m wondering if you’re interested in the position?” Sun Changle went straight to the point.
“I’ve actually been on vacation for this period. You should know that it’s tiring to work in this industry, so I’m just taking the time to accompany my family and friends. I will consider Tosca Pharmaceutical Conglomerate’s offer seriously, and I’m grateful for your recommendation. I’ll invite you to a meal if there’s an opportunity to express my gratitude.” Sun Changle worked his way up from a salesman, so his public relations skill was perfect.
“I know that you’re on vacation, but can you give me a reply in this matter? After all, I have to give Mr. Fred an explanation.” Sun Changle smiled.
“Can you give me three days to consider this matter? I’ll personally give Tosca Pharmaceutical Conglomerate an answer about this matter.” Zhen Wei politely replied.
After hanging up the call with Zhen Wei, Sun Changle smiled, “Based on my understanding of Zhen Wei, I can tell that he’s tempted by the offer. But you will have to give a portion of the joint venture company’s share to him. You will be able to motivate him to show greater performance in this way.”
“Thank you for your help. It’s my honor to encounter you.” Fred toasted the glass in his hand. “I will report this matter to the headquarters and try to get a position for you. Your shares will also not be forgotten.”
“There’s no need to be so polite.” Sun Changle smiled. “Su Tao and I are friends, so your affairs are also mine. Let’s celebrate in advance for Tosca Pharmaceutical Conglomerate’s successful venture in China!”
The group toasted and chatted while they ate. The atmosphere was full of laughter.
After sending Su Tao and Fred off, Sun Changle looked a little intoxicated from the alcohol. Taking a note from his pocket, he spoke out, “Old Fei, you belong to our circle from now on. I believe there’s no need for me to be so straightforward in some matters, right? A price is needed to enter this industry. These are the people that you will have to visit for the next two days. Although I’ve already greeted them on your behalf, you still need to rely on your own public relations on this matter.”
Fei Mingyang nodded his head with a smile. He knew what Sun Changle meant. Sun Changle was hinting him to use the money to lay out a path for the joint venture company.
However, he did not expect that he would be a chess piece prepared by Sun Changle to frame Yue Zun. After he finished his meeting with Sun Changle, he immediately got his trusted aide to prepare gifts to get it done as soon as possible.
After Fei Mingyang left, Sun Changle gave a call to Zhen Wei and smiled, “That call was made in a hurry. But I never expected that you would react so quickly.”
“We’ve known each other for years. So how could I not have a rapport with you?” Zhen Wei’s tone changed.
“That Fred is really ignorant enough to think that I’ll really recommend you to them.” Sun Changle scoffed.
“If it weren’t for Tosca Pharmaceutical Conglomerate, would Cambell Pharmaceutical Company collapse? I will definitely repay this grudge in the future.” Zhen Wei harrumphed.
Zhen Wei was from Cambell Pharmaceutical Company, and he even had the support of the Neuer Pharmaceutical Conglomerate. Even if he were doing badly, he would never join Tosca Pharmaceutical Conglomerate. It was just Fred and his wishful thinking.
“The Fyrel Pharmaceutical Company is also thinking about recruiting you, and they even offered a generous salary. I can help to recommend them to you if you want.” Sun Changle replied.
“Thank you for your help. But I still wish to take some time off.” Zhen Wei immediately thanked.
“Alright, let’s have tea next time.” Sun Changle ended the call, cursing Zhan Wei for being a cunning fox.
Along with Neuer Pharmaceutical Conglomerate’s withdrawal from China’s domestic market, there was a massive shortage of medical imports in the county. No one could see any depths anytime soon. So it wasn’t wise to tie yourself with a company right now. Zhen Wei was smart by taking a break for the time being before choosing a company once everything settles down. With his connection with the sales channel, he could gain a footing for himself swiftly.
Sitting at the back of the car, Fred frowned, “Why would that Sun Changle introduce Zhen Wei to me? It’s baffling.”
“Are you not interested in him? He’s the best that this country has to offer.” Su Tao smiled.
Fred shrugged and smiled, “Oh, then let me tell you more about Tosca Pharmaceutical Conglomerate. We will never use anyone from our competitor’s faction. There’s no way that we will pick him even if he’s outstanding. Because he isn’t loyal enough.”
Su Tao never imagined that Fred was so good in his acting. The joy he wore on his face earlier even fooled Sun Changle. He now knew why Joanna would put him as Tosca Pharmaceutical Conglomerate’s representative in China. So it turned out that Fred wasn’t as simple as he looked.
“You can even win the Oscar with your acting skills.” Su Tao commented with a smile.
“If I’m not mistaken, that Mr. Fei seems to be in the dark. What a poor bloke.” Fred shrugged before taking out his tablet and began sorting out documents.
The situation might seem complicated, but it was also simple.
When Su Tao returned to his residence, he began to sort out his thoughts. Judging from Sun Changle’s recent actions, he seems to target the empty market after Cambell Pharmaceutical Company withdrew from China’s domestic market. He must have reached an agreement with Shao Wentao on this matter, such as supporting Shao Wentao as the National Healer Team’s leader. After Shao Wentao became the leader, he would use his resources to help Sun Changle take this empty market.
A few days later, Su Tao arrived at the Central Healthcare Building.
He saw Yue Zun waving his hand at him the moment he walked into the office. On Yue Zun’s phone, Sun Changle appeared. Sun Changle was using an excuse of looking for documents to enter Yue Zun’s office. He took down the painting and tried to look for that pinhole camera. But when he couldn’t find the camera, he looked a little nervous.
“He must have realised that we know about his actions now.” Yue Zun’s lips rose into a cold sneer.
Su Tao placed the painting back to give Sun Changle the impression that his ‘eyes’ were still around. He was luring Sun Changle to be captured by the pinhole camera he hid.
“This is the effect that we’re looking for. He will eventually reveal his flaw when he’s feeling guilty.” Su Tao’s eyes flickered.
“I don’t think I can accept this fact. How can the National Healer Team be so dark?” Yue Zun smiled bitterly.
“As the saying goes, politics exist when there’s a community around.” Su Tao replied.
Some fights couldn’t be avoided. Yue Zun was also a shrewd person, and he was just grumbling.
The two of them chatted briefly before they were informed that the meeting was starting soon. As one of the National Healer Team’s core members, Yue Zun’s participation was naturally required.
“The storm won’t be calm.” Yue Zun showed a conflicted smile. He could sense that the meeting wouldn’t be a simple one. He could already smell the gunpowder lingering in the air.
