The Prodigal Son: I Can Foresee the Future

The proposal dinner was spent in such a pleasant atmosphere.

Lin Ming and Chen Jia did not return to the Brilliant God City or the rental house, but stayed at the Tianyang Hotel.

But it was not Lin Ming's "request".

Instead, Hong Ning insisted that they stay here, saying that the room had been booked and the atmosphere had been arranged. Wouldn't it be a waste of his kindness if they just left?

Given that this guy was so sincere, Lin Ming and Chen Jia could only refuse!

…

January 1, 2023.

National statutory holiday, New Year's Day.

Lin Ming and Chen Jia did not sleep in.

They had finished washing up at around 7 o'clock and had some breakfast in the breakfast area.

At 7:30, the two came to Phoenix Pharmaceuticals together.

Han Changyu, Zhang Kuang, and Wang Yuzheng, director of the marketing department, had been waiting here for a long time.

Seeing Lin Ming and Chen Jia arrive late.

Han Changyu couldn't help but say: "You two are really generous. The special cold medicine will be officially on sale at 8 o'clock, and you are just rushing to come now."

After saying that.

He raised his eyebrows at Lin Ming again, as if to say - did you have a lot of fun last night?

Considering that Chen Jia was around, Lin Ming didn't joke with this guy.

"Given the willingness of netizens to buy before, there is no need to worry about the domestic market at present. Why are you so nervous?"

Lin Ming said: "I didn't plan to come to the company. I wanted to go directly to my mother-in-law's house. But you guys are so good, calling me one after another to urge me."

"Mr. Lin, this is the first drug under Phoenix Pharmaceuticals after all. Without you and Mr. Chen, we don't know what to do!" Wang Yuzheng laughed dryly.

Lin Ming nodded and asked: "How is the hospital? Has any hospital contacted you?"

"Yes, but there is only one, the First People's Hospital of Moling County." Wang Yuzheng said.

Lin Ming was slightly startled.

The special cold medicine has not been officially launched yet, and its efficacy has not been widely spread.

He just asked casually, but he didn't expect that the hospital really started to contact Phoenix Pharmaceutical.

"What did you say?" Lin Ming asked.

Wang Yuzheng said, "They hope that we can supply 50,000 boxes of special cold medicine at present, and the condition is to supply first and pay later, and settle the account when the sales volume reaches more than half."

Lin Ming rolled his eyes: "Are you dreaming?"

"I think so too!"

Han Changyu snorted: "When these hospitals treat patients, they all pay the deposit for hospitalization in advance. Why didn't they say that they would cure half of the patients first and then let the patients pay?"

"They want our goods, but they don't want to pay. They have taken all the benefits!"

Lin Ming pursed his lips and said, "No matter which hospital comes to ask for goods, they must pay first and then supply them. If we can't reach an agreement, there is no need to cooperate. After all, our company's operation also requires costs."

"Of course, no matter whether we can reach an agreement or not, don't be too rigid. The hospital is not a big pharmacy, so as not to put pressure on us from the authorities in the future."

"Okay!" Wang Yuzheng nodded.

Lin Ming and Chen Jia walked in front, while Han Changyu and Zhang Kuang followed behind.

This made Chen Jia a little embarrassed.

After all, in terms of company position, Han Changyu is the real senior president, and she is just a deputy.

However, Han Changyu looked nonchalant, so Chen Jia didn't think much about it.

After arriving at Lin Ming's office.

Lin Ming said to Han Changyu again: "At present, the supply of large pharmacies is not much. Compared with the population of the entire Donglin Province, 20,000 boxes of special cold medicines can't make any waves at all. Even if all are sold, the efficacy of the medicine may not be widely circulated in a short time."

"I understand, so the marketing department has opened an online pre-sale channel. The only online channel partner currently cooperating is 'JD Health Pharmacy'." Han Changyu said.

Seeing Lin Ming nod.

Wang Yuzheng suddenly asked: "Mr. Lin, why don't our online partners choose HSBC Shopping? In Donglin Province alone, HSBC Shopping's influence is actually much greater than JD.com, and the logistics of cooperating with HSBC Shopping can also be faster."

Wang Yuzheng actually mentioned HSBC Shopping to Lin Ming before, but was rejected by Lin Ming at that time.

Wang Yuzheng thought that HSBC Shopping had offended Lin Ming, so Lin Ming would not choose to cooperate with HSBC Shopping.

Normally speaking.

JD.com does have a great influence in the country.

But if it is limited to Donglin Province, then HSBC Shopping has the greatest influence and the fastest delivery speed.

"I plan to acquire HSBC Shopping."

Lin Ming briefly explained: "HSBC Shopping is currently in a state of broken capital chain. If we choose to cooperate with HSBC Shopping now, it will undoubtedly add burden to my acquisition."This is not a secret.

HSBC Shopping knows that Phoenix Capital belongs to Phoenix Group, and also knows that the person who wants to acquire HSBC Shopping is Lin Ming.

Therefore, even if Wang Yuzheng knew, Lin Ming would not care.

"I see."

Wang Yuzheng's heart was shocked.

He thought of many reasons, but he never thought that Lin Ming was planning to acquire HSBC Shopping.

These big shots can spend their money however they want!

"It's almost 8 o'clock."

Lin Ming looked at the time: "The last question, how many boxes are available for online and offline channels now?"

"One tenth of the inventory, that is, 200,000 boxes."

Han Changyu said: "You mean that you plan to supply mainly to hospitals, so I didn't ask the people to prepare too much."

"200,000 boxes, enough."

Lin Ming glanced at Han Changyu: "Pay attention to the publicity of special cold medicine. We don't need to maliciously exaggerate the efficacy of the medicine, but we must let the public know what they should know."

Han Changyu naturally understood what Lin Ming meant: "I understand."

"From the current market trend, the sales of special cold medicine may not be too much in the morning, but it will usher in a surge in the afternoon. Be prepared." Lin Ming said again.

Next, everyone stared at the time.

If you want to say who is the most nervous, it is undoubtedly Zhang Kuang and Wang Yuzheng.

These two guys, one is the developer of special cold medicine, and the other is the director of the marketing department.

The sales volume of a product represents the quality of the product itself and the strength of the marketing department's operation strategy.

In this situation where every second counts.

The time finally came to 8 o'clock!

Lin Ming had already opened the channel background of 'JD Health Pharmacy' from his computer, which clearly displayed the sales volume and inventory.

There was no data feedback from the pharmacy, and the online sales channel had the largest supply, so everyone was most concerned about this.

"Someone bought it!"

When the sales volume showed 1, Zhang Kuang suddenly jumped up excitedly.

His shout actually scared Lin Ming and others.

"What are you doing?"

Chen Jia smiled bitterly and said, "You developed the drug yourself, are you afraid that you can't sell it?"
