Super first-tier cities: Starting from village committee secretary

“How should we price the lung cancer specific drug?” Sun Zecheng asked after finishing his laugh.

“Same as the AIDS drug, 200,000 RMB per injection domestically, and 200,000 USD overseas.” Xiong Xu still adhered to the principle of domestic discounts and overseas exploitation, figuring foreigners are rich and it's fine to fleece them a bit.

Sun Zecheng nodded, understanding how to price it.

Time flowed slowly, and half a month passed in a flash.

During this half month, although facing difficulties and刁难from local governments, Sun Zecheng still completed the relocation of 67% or more of the Fortune 500 companies he controlled, a total of 24 Fortune 500 companies.

Of these 24 Fortune 500 companies, 10 were located in the urban area of ​​Shanxiong City, which caused the permanent population of Shanxiong City to increase by 40,000 people at once. The other 14 were located in Raozhou Tongxing City, Zhengjing Le'an City, Raozhou Wuyuan City, Zhengjing Changjiang District, Yingshui Yujiang District, Yingshui Guixi City, Yingshui Yuehu District, Raozhou Xingzhou District, Zhengjing Zhushan District, Raozhou Hengfeng City, Raozhou Geyang City, Raozhou Qianshan City, Raozhou Wanning City, Raozhou Yushan County, and fourteen other urban and rural areas, one in each urban and rural area.

Tang Jianguo, the Secretary of the Raozhou Municipal Party Committee, didn't waste his time dominating the group chat. Raozhou City got 8 of the 14 Fortune 500 companies, leading to a substantial increase in the economy and consumption power.

The landing of 24 Fortune 500 companies in Jiangnan Province also made Dong Chunping, the Secretary of the Jiangnan Provincial Party Committee, very happy. This would be one of his most impressive achievements during his tenure.

After completing the relocation of the 24 Fortune 500 companies, Sun Zecheng immediately took a plane to the United States to negotiate the acquisition of Walmart Group.

Sun Zecheng's trip to the United States marked the first time that senior executives from the Jiuri Technology Group had visited the US. When the news of Sun Zecheng's impending arrival in the United States reached the US government, the US government immediately reacted, for example, by dispatching officials to pick him up.

The surface reason was to pick him up, but the real purpose was to find out Sun Zecheng's purpose in coming to the United States.

United States, New York!

Kennedy International Airport!

At 9:30 AM US time, a passenger plane with the words "China Aviation" printed on it slowly stopped at the airport. As soon as the plane stopped, several vehicles carrying government officials drove over, carrying seven or eight officials and some bodyguards.

“I am Nicedes, the director of the New York Bureau of Commerce. Welcome Mr. Sun Zecheng to the United States.”

When Sun Zecheng walked off the plane, Nicedes, the director of the New York Bureau of Commerce, immediately stepped forward to shake hands with Sun Zecheng and greet him with a welcome.

Sun Zecheng unbuttoned his coat and replied with a smile in Chinese: "Thank you for the warm welcome, Director."

Director of Commerce Nicedes didn't understand Chinese and was immediately dumbfounded, not knowing what Sun Zecheng was saying.

He didn't bring a translator this time either, because he originally thought Sun Zecheng would bring his own translator, and if he didn't, he should know English. He didn't expect the awkward situation of Sun Zecheng speaking Chinese without a translator to occur.

“Does anyone understand Chinese?”

Nicedes asked the several officials behind him.

The officials looked at each other, and a trace of embarrassment was revealed in the air.

Sun Zecheng always maintained a smile. He could understand English and could also speak it, but he just didn't speak English.

Why didn't he speak?

Because I don't want to.

Welcoming Sun Zecheng this time was a political task, so in order to complete the task smoothly, Nicedes immediately sent someone to the airport store to buy translation headsets. During this period, Nicedes also communicated with Sun Zecheng through gestures, asking Sun Zecheng to wait, assuming that Sun Zecheng couldn't understand English.

Before long, the person Nicedes sent to buy the translation headset returned. Nicedes first put one on himself, and then gave one to Sun Zecheng.

“I don’t need it, Director. I can understand what you are saying.”

Sun Zecheng said he didn't need a translation headset.

Nicedes was stunned for a moment.

Understands?

“Oh my god, then you should be able to speak English, why don’t you?” Nicedes expressed his confusion.

“I can understand, but I can’t speak.” Sun Zecheng smiled.

Nicedes could only shake his head and smile helplessly, then invited Sun Zecheng to a special car to visit the Bureau of Commerce.

About half an hour later, the vehicle arrived at the Bureau of Commerce. Nicedes invited Sun Zecheng to his office, personally made coffee for Sun Zecheng, and then the two sat down together to start a conversation.

“I wonder what Mr. Sun is here in the United States for?”

Nicedes asked straight to the point.

Sun Zecheng took a sip of the authentic American coffee, almost twisting his face from the bitterness. He swallowed the coffee, suppressing his discomfort, and said calmly: “I am here this time with a mission from Chairman Xiong Xu. Our Jiuri Technology Group plans to acquire Walmart Group.”

“What?”

Nicedes's eyes widened, his face filled with shock.

He never imagined that Sun Zecheng had come to acquire Walmart Group.

This is the second largest company in the world, and the first is Jiuri Technology Group.

First acquiring second?

It sounds so terrifying and absurd.

“Jiuri Technology Group's idea is surprising, but in my opinion, it is impossible. Relevant US laws stipulate that when a US company is acquired by foreign capital, it needs to obtain approval from relevant institutions. If it is a general company, this approval is not difficult, but this is Walmart Group, and it is impossible to approve it.”

Nicedes also spoke frankly with Sun Zecheng, saying that this acquisition was almost impossible to complete.

“I think it will be.”

“I am here this time with cooperation in mind.”

Sun Zecheng crossed his legs, full of confidence.

Nicedes was also very confident and crossed his legs, laughing: “I don’t think so. No matter how great the benefits of cooperation are, the United States will not allow Jiuri Technology Group to acquire Walmart Group.”

Sun Zecheng casually picked up a piece of A4 paper from the table, then took out a pen he always carried with him from his pocket, and wrote a sentence in English on the paper: Lung cancer specific drugs.

Cancer specific drug!

After writing, Sun Zecheng handed the white paper to Nicedes. Nicedes was very dismissive when he first took it, but when he saw the content on it, his whole body shook, and the look in his eyes when he looked up at Sun Zecheng was full of disbelief.

“You have developed a specific drug for cancer?”

Sun Zecheng nodded with a smile.

“How effective is the drug? Is it the same efficacy as the AIDS specific drug? Also, what kind of cancer does it treat? Can all cancers be cured?” Nicedes stood up and asked questions one after another, reacting somewhat excitedly.

“The efficacy is the same as the AIDS specific drug, but it cannot cure all cancers. It can only cure lung cancer, referred to as lung cancer.” Sun Zecheng replied.

Nicedes trembled with excitement and couldn't help laughing: “My God, that’s great, haha, hahaha, there is hope, thank God! Haha!”

The reason why Nicedes was so excited was because Nicedes's wife had recently gone to the hospital for a checkup due to physical discomfort, and the result was that she had advanced lung cancer.
