“Then he thinks too highly of himself,” Frey said.

“There are so many of us here, and we even took the initiative to come to Zhonghai. In the words of the Huaxian, we’re giving him enough face. Doesn’t he have any basic respect?”

“On Wall Street, so-called respect is worthless. Did Mr. Frey forget that he made the share price of Pfizer and the six major pharmaceutical companies plunge for two consecutive days? He has the confidence to act this way.”

“Director Zhao, I think this matter was completely due to your failure in the Huaxia market,” Frey said.

“If it were me, I wouldn’t give him this chance.”

“You?” Zhao Wen said coldly.

“The other party has come up with a formula that can replace ibuprofen and 25 other major medicines. Moreover, they have already passed the laboratory testing. Under such circumstances, Mr. Frey, do you have a way to turn the tables?”

“There are many similar substitutes for drugs like ibuprofen in the world. It’s just that Pfizer’s equipment is more advanced, not that they’re the only ones who are able to make it. It’s not surprising that Huaxian could develop a substitute,” Frey said.

“As for the six medicines that Roche exports, we spent more than ten years and invested a lot of manpower and resources to develop them. It won’t be easy for him to make them.”

“Are you saying that Huaxia is forging information?” Zhao Wen asked.

“That’s right,” Frey said confidently.

“I’m guessing that this is all fake news that they came up with. Any one of the 25 imported drugs is more difficult to develop than ibuprofen, yet he claims that he developed it in a month. Isn’t that a joke?”

“I think Mr. Frey has a point. As you said before, he used three days to develop a Huaxian medicine that could replace ibuprofen. If it were any other imported medicine, I’m sure it would take even longer.”

The person who spoke was Wei Kang, deputy director of global marketing at Merck & Co., USA.

However, he was different from Zhao Wen. When he graduated from university, he fully joined Meiguo and no longer even considered himself Huaxian.

“We can look at it this way. Even if he could complete each of the 25 imported medicines in three days, it would still take 75 days to complete everything. Now, only a month has passed. It’s impossible for him to have developed all these medicines.”

Hearing their conversation, Zhao Wen shook her head secretly. “Don’t treat Huaxian medicine as worthless. When Huaxian medicine was at its peak, there was no Western medicine that could compare.”

“So what? How did things end up after that?” Wei Kang shrugged and said.

“Do you still need Huaxian medicine to treat acute appendicitis? Or do you have a heart disease that can be cured with Huaxian medicine? What right does Huaxian medicine have to compare with modern medicine? And what you’re talking about is old news. Don’t bring it up now.”

Hearing their ignorant remarks, Zhao Wen stopped talking.

She had said everything she needed to say. There was nothing she could do if they didn’t believe her.

However, in Zhao Wen’s opinion, the man called Lin Yi was more unique than the Huaxian medicine he created.

A man who single-handedly shook seven pharmaceutical companies and affected the world’s pharmaceutical industry would not be easy to deal with.

It would not be easy to get the better of him.

After exiting the airport terminal, the group of more than ten people took a taxi toward the Peninsula Hotel.

At the same time, Lin Yi had finished his lunch and rushed to the Peninsula Hotel to meet Zhao Wen.

Ring!

After parking the car, He Yuanyuan called.

“Boss, the market has stabilized. Zhao Mo seems to have stopped selling our shares.”

“How much have we picked up?”

“The exact figure is 43.9765 billion.” He Yuanyuan said.

“However, Brother Qi and I, as well as the higher-ups of Didi, had a meeting to study this number. We concluded that 40 billion should have been dumped by Zhao Mo. The rest were sold by retail investors. This accounts for almost one-tenth of the total number of shares. It’s not a small figure.”

“This is expected. Zhao Mo is the general manager of Huayin Corporation. This company has supreme influence in Huaxia. It’s normal for their actions to cause a commotion.”

Lin Yi didn’t care about these things. In his opinion, the real show was still to come.

“Zhao Mo’s borrowed stocks should have run out by now. It’s time for Muddy Waters to enter the field,” Lin Yi reminded.

“For the next few days, focus on the public image of Lingyun Group and Didi. Investigate Didi’s financial statements, especially the quarterly and annual reports. This represents an effective way for them to attack us. Don’t let them take advantage of any flaws.”

“Got it, boss.”

After the call with He Yuanyuan, Lin Yi sat in the car for a few minutes.

With Zhao Mo’s personality, since he had stopped selling, it meant that the first round of the game had ended and they were about to enter the second round.

At the thought of this, Lin Yi stretched. He was especially looking forward to Muddy Waters’ appearance.

A few minutes later, Lin Yi got out of the car and walked into the Peninsula Hotel.

Seeing Lin Yi enter, Wang Tianlong went up to him.

“Is everyone here?” Lin Yi asked.

“A total of thirteen people came. There were six foreigners and seven Huaxians. All of them are occupying presidential suites.”

“Alright.” Lin Yi nodded. “Everyone’s in the meeting room, right?”

“They’re all here. They’re waiting for you inside.”

“Alright, go focus on your own work. I’ll go over and take a look now.”

After saying goodbye to Wang Tianlong, Lin Yi walked toward the meeting room on the second floor.

At the same time, Zhao Wen and the others sat in two rows in the meeting room, waiting for Lin Yi to enter.

“Director Zhao, what’s the situation with the other party? It’s almost one o’clock. Why isn’t he here yet?” Frey asked impatiently.

“There’s five minutes left. He should be here soon,” Zhao Wen said. “He shouldn’t be late for something like this.”

“But we came early and he didn’t say anything. This is too rude.”

Zhao Wen shrugged. “If the appointment time was at 12:55, I think he would come by now. But, there’s nothing more to be said since our appointment is at one o’clock.”

“Then I’ll wait a few more minutes. I really want to see what kind of person the other party is.”

Creak…

The meeting room door was pushed open, and Lin Yi walked in with a smile.

“It seems that everyone is here. We can officially start the meeting.”

Seeing Lin Yi enter, the people from the six pharmaceutical companies glanced at him a few times.

Lin Yi’s appearance and attire were beyond their expectations.

Such a person seemed more like a rich second-generation heir than a person with research and development abilities.

At the same time, Zhao Wen stood up. “Let me introduce everyone. The person standing in front of you is the director of the cardiology department of Huashan Hospital, Lin Yi. He’s also a famous pharmaceutical expert.”

According to the normal meeting procedure, this should have been followed by applause.

However, at this moment, the meeting room was very quiet.

Some people nodded lightly, while others were expressionless. In short, they had different expressions, but none of them applauded.

Zhao Wen frowned slightly. She was very dissatisfied with these people’s actions.

However, she had no choice. The meeting had to go on, so Zhao Wen could only bite the bullet and continue.

“Mr. Lin, let me introduce you to this group.”

“There’s no need to introduce them. These people all look like they are grieving. Those who don’t know might think that they’re here to worship their ancestors’ graves,” Lin Yi said.

“They’re probably in a bad mood after what happened last time. I won’t take up their time. Let’s talk alone.”
