Hong Kong Variety Show: Let you eat melons, eat melons on your sister-in-law

Chapter 395 "395" Another Assassination Attack
Lin Yao could tell that this bastard had ill intentions.

However, Lin Yao did not intend to offend Qiao Qi, after all, the CIA was not a small organization.

And these guys are quite troublesome.

As for five million, Lin Yao didn't care about that amount of money.

But that bastard Qiao Qi set a trap for Lin Yao right from the start, which made Lin Yao quite unhappy.

From the moment James Monroe was captured, Lin Yao knew it was an internal power struggle within the CIA.

Originally, it wasn't about me, but George's comment clearly showed he wanted to drag me into it.

Qiao Qi could also sense Lin Yao's indifference.

But there's nothing we can do; George always judges people by the worst standards.

Then slowly look for evidence that Lin Yao is a good person.

This is the arrogance that these Americans have in their bones.

So even if Lin Yao had objections, even if he knew that Lin Yao was doing business with so many military-industrial complexes, he would still do it.

Lin Yao waved his hand, bringing the unconscious James Monroe up, and then said to George, "Alright, you can take the person you wanted now!"

"As for the five million you mentioned, just send it to me whenever you have the money! You don't need to come in person!"

After Lin Yao finished speaking, he ignored Qiao Qi and directly ordered him to leave.

George shrugged and ordered his men to take James Monroe away.

As for whether he had offended Lin Yao, Qiao Qi didn't care at all; they were the CIA!

After George left, Lin Yao picked up the phone and dialed Richard's number: "Richard, how are things on your end?"

“The mainland and England have reached an understanding and are preparing to cut the political department!” Richard said with a smile. “The person taking over my job is a hardliner, and I reckon he’ll cause trouble!”

Lin Yao said with a sneer, "It's alright, I'll have some fun with him then!"

"What about our plans? How's the Eye of Exploration project coming along?"

Richard laughed and said, "With the foundation of MI5 and CIA intelligence, I've already established the framework in various locations. The next issue is how to increase manpower! I estimate that it will require a large investment!"

Lin Yao laughed and said, "Don't worry, I'll find a way to get the money!"

Although Lin Yao is quite wealthy now, setting up a global intelligence organization is not cheap.

The annual investment is astronomical.

However, for Lin Yao, this money was definitely something he had to pay.

Fortunately, Lin Yao knew many ways to make money, so this amount of investment was nothing to him, just a bit troublesome.

……

The negotiations continued the following day.

This time, Lin Yao didn't handle the negotiations himself; he hired some professionals to negotiate with the pharmaceutical representatives.

Unfortunately, they couldn't reach a satisfactory conclusion.

Lin Yao's asking price was too high, and the conditions were too harsh, to the point that even these pharmaceutical giants could not afford it.

Moreover, for the foreseeable future, Lin Yao will continue to dominate the sales.

They are capitalists, not suckers.

In the midst of the tug-of-war, Pudu Pharmaceuticals was the first to succumb to the pressure. Raymond went directly to Lin Yao: "Mr. Lin, the conditions you've proposed are too harsh. What exactly do you want?"

"Is it demanding? This is a drug that can obviously sell like hotcakes, my conditions are perfectly normal!" Lin Yao said with a puzzled look, "Do you think you can get it for free?"

Raymond took a deep breath and said, "Pudu Pharmaceuticals is quite interested in your Viagra formula. We can't afford it, but we can make concessions elsewhere!"

Lin Yao immediately smiled; Raymond had finally taken the bait.

Lin Yao directly proposed an idea to Raymond: "How about this, I'll exchange the Viagra formula for shares in Purdue Pharmaceuticals, what do you think?"

"You want shares in Purdue Pharma?" Raymond asked, somewhat surprised.

"I'm also very optimistic about the development of Purdue Pharma, especially with the upcoming launch of Oscontin," Lin Yao said to Raymond with a smile. "Moreover, I need a long-term partner in America. I have more than just Viagra in my portfolio!"

Upon hearing Lin Yao's words, Raymond was immediately tempted.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "My two older brothers have arrived and would like to invite Mr. Lin to dinner tonight!"

Lin Yao knew they were interested, so he immediately nodded in agreement.

After the three brothers from Pudu Pharmaceuticals arrived, Lin Yao proposed the idea of ​​exchanging the formula for shares.

Although the two were somewhat hesitant, they agreed after only a brief discussion.

Lin Yao exchanged the Viagra formula, along with some unfinished formulas from his laboratory, for eight percent of Pudu Pharmaceutical's shares.

He became the fourth largest individual shareholder of Purdue Pharma.

It's important to understand that Pudu Pharmaceuticals is not just a business owned by the three brothers; they have undergone multiple rounds of financing.

Many investment banks have invested a significant amount of money in it.

Eight percent already makes them the largest individual shareholder besides the three brothers.

After the two sides reached an agreement, the remaining pharmaceutical companies were eliminated.

They were still debating the price, but they didn't expect Pudu Pharmaceuticals to be so willing to exchange shares for the formula.

Even if they were unwilling, they had no better options. As for forcing Lin Yao to sell the formula, that was no problem dealing with an outsider.

However, Lin Yao also has business dealings with many military-industrial complexes, so he can't be considered an outsider.

If it comes to using underhanded tactics, Lin Yao's methods are no less sophisticated than theirs.

Even if they were unwilling, they had no choice but to give up.

After the two parties reached an agreement, Lin Yao directly handed over the Viagra formula to Raymond, asking them to conduct clinical trials as soon as possible.

Once the license is obtained, it can be launched on the market.

However, Lin Yao did not grant them exclusive copyrights; Pudu Pharmaceuticals only had sales rights in the Americas and Europe.

The sales rights in Asia are still in Lin Yao's hands.

After all, the Asian market is so large, Lin Yao has no intention of giving it away easily.

Clearly, the three brothers at Pudu Pharmaceuticals haven't realized this yet.

At this moment, Lin Yao has achieved his two main objectives in coming to America.

They collaborated with General Technologies and Boeing on drones and new bulletproof materials.

By collaborating with Purdue Pharma on the Viagra formula, Lin Yao has essentially established his Giant God International in the United States.

Now we'll see how things develop with McDonald's and the like.

However, it shouldn't be a big problem. McDonald was already a major when he left America.

Moreover, his enemies no longer have much influence in America, and McDonald has rebuilt his old connections.

With Yuri's help, they have already taken on several missions.

"It seems everything is on track!" Lin Yao said to McDonald with a smile.

McDonald exclaimed, "It's true what they say, having connections makes things easier, no matter where you are!"

"Haha, that makes sense!" Lin Yao said with a smile. "I'm leaving things in Miami to you. Don't let me down!"

"Don't worry, boss. With such strong support, if I can't even run a PMC company well, I might as well just kill myself!" McDonald said with considerable confidence.

After delegating authority to McDonald, Lin Yao went to New York to prepare for the next step of the plan.

Relying on his precognitive abilities, Lin Yao plans to establish an investment company in New York.

You can invest in some promising industries in advance.

For example... things like the internet.

Lin Yao knew that the Internet developed extremely rapidly in the United States from the 1990s to the millennium.

Internet companies all develop during this period.

Now that he knew, Lin Yao naturally wouldn't let it go.

Lin Yao just didn't have a suitable candidate here, so he planned to try his luck in New York.

Lin Yao sensed something was wrong as soon as he got off the plane.

They realized that they had been targeted.

"Boss, someone's following us!" Xiao Fu said warily.

Lin Yao nodded and said, "I know, let's see what they want to do."

Lin Yao and Xiao Fu walked out of the airport, and were now preparing to have someone pick them up.

However, a taxi had passed by him several times, and Lin Yao felt that it would be impolite not to get in.

He exchanged a glance with Xiao Fu, then hailed a taxi.

After giving him a hotel address, Lin Yao closed his eyes and pretended to rest.

Xiao Fu also took out a game console and started playing by himself.

The driver glanced at Lin Yao and his companion in the rearview mirror and a smile crept onto his lips.

I don't know how long we drove, but the surrounding environment became increasingly remote.

Lin Yaoding's hotel was clearly in the Upper District, but the driver took him to the Lower District.

Lin Yao immediately asked, "Hey, where are you taking us?"

The driver dropped the pretense and grinned maliciously: "Tsk, this ten million bounty is really easy money!"

As he spoke, a large amount of white smoke was emitted from the vehicle's air conditioning.

The driver quickly jumped out of the car and pressed the remote control in his hand.

The taxi's doors were instantly locked.

A group of people emerged from the shadows.

"That's it? Smoker?" A man with a scar on his face and a rifle in his hand stepped out and said to the taxi driver.

The driver chuckled and said, "I thought the guy with the ten million bounty on his head at the hotel would be tough to deal with. I took them on a lot of detours, but they didn't even notice. What a waste of time!"

"Hehe, the bounty from the Continental Hotel is ten million US dollars and ten gold coins. We've made a killing!" another skinny assassin said with a sly laugh.

"Don't be careless. We'll make our move after the Smoker's smoke clears!" Scarface felt something was off, so he frowned and reprimanded his men.
