"Damn it." Jack slapped his desk and cursed loudly: "We have clearly settled everything in the futures market, but we are still being ruthlessly abandoned."
The CEO sat calmly opposite him and said helplessly: "This is the result of us overestimating our capabilities to challenge a big country, so do we still need that patent authorization now?"
"Of course we need it. We have already lost orders from flower growers. We cannot lose other orders. The soybean market must still be in our hands." Jack thought for a moment and said: "Continue to expand our soybean market, including South America, Australia, and Africa.
Everything is in our hands, and they still have to buy soybeans from us."
"South America and Australia are fine, but Africa is not that easy." The CEO answered directly and truthfully: "There is no way to farm in chaotic places, and even the places where we can farm are dismissive of us."
"Disdain for us?" Jack said with a smile: "Is there any place in the world that dares to disdain our great ugly United States?"
"Yes, the African countries that disdain me are all at peace, but the countries that flock to us are still in chaos."
Jack directly cursed a word with a particularly high F content, but there was nothing he could do. As we all know, Ugly Country is an angel of war, and will bring war to whomever it falls in love with.
The CEO could only shrug: "It seems that I need to rearrange the candidates to discuss cooperation with Huaxing Group, and also rearrange the strategy."
Jack nodded: "It is foreseeable that if we talk about cooperation this time, the other party may put forward more stringent conditions. I will ask if you can bypass this patent authorization and gain more benefits for us. Don't let this happen again.
Such a passive situation."
"I'm afraid it's difficult. You also said that the other party is professional." The CEO smiled and shook his head: "We should be lucky that this news is still confidential. If people from other grain companies know about it, no matter how harsh the conditions are,
, they will also agree."
"Then hurry up to avoid any accidents. With so many losses, if there is another accident in the soybean market, then Monsanto will really be doomed, and other companies will seize the opportunity to eat us without leaving any bones.
"
There is also excitement among flower growers in the country. It has always been said that farming is an instinct engraved in the bones of flower growers. Now that there is a way to both farm and make money, smart people are immediately enlightened.
Go to Africa to grow soybeans.
Especially those on the southern coast, where there are more people and less land. After the reform and opening up, although I made a lot of money, I always felt unsatisfied because I had no land to farm.
Many people who liked farming quickly came to Africa. They spoke half-baked English, contracted large areas of land with local governments or tribal chiefs, and hired local people to help grow soybeans.
Huaxing Biotech is also a big hit. Although the company was established not long ago, the seed breeding base has been established for a long time. A large number of high-quality seeds are sent to distant Africa. In the future, these seeds will be turned into cooking oil for Chinese people or coveted food.
Tofu.
Jiang Hua also saw the news. He joked with Zheng Tong who was working at his desk: "I had thought about going to Africa to grow soybeans, but I didn't expect it would be so popular."
"I have never thought about it. I feel that Africa is relatively turbulent. Where is there a calm place for them to grow soybeans?"
"There are places that are not chaotic." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "Even if there are places that are chaotic, when we go there to farm, we have to restore calm no matter how chaotic it is."
"Your statement is an exaggeration." Zheng Tongcai didn't believe it, and retorted: "Can we stop the war by planting land?"
"Under what circumstances do you think our ancestors shouted out that the prince general Xiang Ning had a seed? Wasn't it because he was not allowed to farm the land properly? So many peasants revolted, wasn't it because they couldn't farm quietly?
, we can only rise up and create a peaceful situation so that we can live a down-to-earth life."
Zheng Tong nodded, and then said in shock: "I'll go, these guys won't do anything outside, right? I don't want Huang Tian to stand up now."
"Probably not." Jiang Hua himself said without confidence: "Now people are not as ignorant as before. They dare to roll up their sleeves and do it. Besides, the people in the past had no choice. Now there are so many people in Africa.
Land, if it doesn’t work here, then choose there.”
Zheng Tong shook his head: "You can't underestimate these quick-thinking people. Anyway, I feel like I'll have a lot more fun in the future. Just watch, the smoke of war is rising on the land of Africa."
Monsanto's representative finally arrived in Beijing. Jiang Hua did not see the plenipotentiary representative, nor did Xu Guanglian. Instead, he asked his team responsible for negotiations to come forward.
This time they got what they wanted. The liquidated damages were increased to 50 million, but the corresponding sales share was also increased by one point. As for the vision of bypassing this agreement, naturally it was not achieved.
Monsanto made a last-ditch effort and raised the conditions for breach of contract. If Jiang Hua wants to repeat his old tricks in the future, he will need to have certain conditions. Of course, at the same time, Monsanto has also been added to the rules, and he wants to take action on the food lifeblood of flower growers in the future.
, they should think twice before doing so.
The reason why the conditions were so harsh and Monsanto still wanted to sign the agreement was because the matter was leaked. Although China Renaissance did not breach the contract in the end, Monsanto's stock price still fell a little.
The most important thing is that the personnel sent by Monsanto to keep an eye on other food companies discovered something, and these companies also formed negotiation teams and rushed to the flower growers.
Monsanto is not a vegetarian. They have also buried their nails in other companies. After careful inquiry, we found that they were all aiming for this gene. After careful inquiry, we found that these companies were also aiming for the patent authorization of this gene.
of.
This made Jack very anxious, so he signed the agreement quickly. Fortunately, this time a prerequisite for breach of contract was added, that is, no breach of contract due to Monsanto's normal business competition, otherwise the liquidated damages would increase twenty times.
Of course, this twenty times is not a big amount, but it at least shows the attitude of the other party that they will not easily break the contract because of other competing companies.
You have to know that twenty times is just one billion U.S. dollars. It’s just one billion U.S. dollars. Do you really look down on their Monsanto competitors?
While the negotiation teams of other food companies were still on the plane, Monsanto couldn't wait to announce the signed agreement. The stock price rose by 12% that day. Jack then relaxed and poured a glass of whiskey.
