Chapter 40 Difficult and Complex Diseases
Lu Zongming pressed down on the skincare prescription, his hand trembling, and said urgently:
"Mr. Shen! Leave this anti-aging formula to me! You just need to provide the formula and the core extraction technology; leave all the dirty work to me! I'll provide a billion yuan in start-up capital, and I guarantee I'll get it done perfectly for you!"
He's spent his whole life in the business world and knows all too well the size of the women's skincare market.
Most of the big brands on the market today rely more on marketing than on results, with marketing sometimes accounting for as much as 90% of their costs!
When you apply it, very little of it is actually useful; it's mostly just psychological comfort and immediate relief.
As Shen Yu said, something that can make someone look five to ten years younger is simply unrivaled in this market!
Once it hits the market, it will definitely be able to directly enter the top tier of the domestic high-end skincare market.
They can even create a top-tier national brand and make money effortlessly!
Qin Zhengxiong, not to be outdone, pressed down firmly on the health-preserving prescription, patted his chest, and shouted:
"Mr. Shen, I'll take care of this health regimen! I'll also provide 1 billion yuan in start-up capital! The Qin family has experience in the pharmaceutical industry, and I know the health market channels inside and out. I guarantee that within three months our products will be available in high-end supermarkets and online channels nationwide, and within six months we'll be a leader in our niche market! I won't let you worry about a thing!"
Both were afraid of being a step too slow and losing the initiative to the other.
Money is secondary; the most important thing is to take this opportunity to deeply bind myself to Shen Yu!
Seeing their flustered expressions, Shen Yu nodded calmly and set the profit sharing:
"Sure, I'll provide the formula and core extraction process. You'll be fully responsible for the subsequent production, operations, and distribution channels. As for profit sharing, we'll do it 50/50, with me taking 50% and you each taking 50%."
Upon hearing this, Lu Zongming and Qin Zhengxiong were stunned for a moment. They then stood up abruptly, shaking their heads vigorously, and refused repeatedly.
"No! Absolutely not!"
Lu Zongming's expression changed, and his tone became extremely solemn.
"Mr. Shen, this is absolutely unacceptable! You provided the formula, and you also possess the core technology. Without you, this business wouldn't even exist! Let alone a 50/50 split, even if you took 100%, and we were only responsible for doing the work, it would be perfectly reasonable!"
Qin Zhengxiong nodded quickly, his attitude unwavering:
"Mr. Shen, Old Lu is right! You saved our lives, and we haven't repaid that debt yet. Now you're bestowing such great wealth upon us; how could we possibly split it 50/50 with you?!"
"This formula is a valuable asset. With it, you can make a fortune by partnering with anyone. It's not like you absolutely need us! We've already received an immense favor by securing this partnership; we would never dare ask for such a large share!"
Lu Zongming took a deep breath and spoke with a resounding voice.
"I propose a 90/10 split! You take 90%, and I'll only take 10%! I wouldn't dare take even a penny more!"
"Yes! A 10/90 split!"
Qin Zhengxiong immediately echoed,
"Mr. Shen, you taking 90% and we each taking 10% is already a huge bargain for us. Any more than that would be undeserved!"
The two were absolutely resolute, without the slightest hint of pretense.
They knew perfectly well that if they could get in touch with Shen Yu, they would be willing to lose money, let alone make a ten percent profit.
Moreover, even if the profit is only 10%, relying on the effects of these two formulas, the future potential is astronomical, enough for them to make a fortune.
Seeing their resolute expressions, Shen Yu frowned slightly and waved his hand:
"No, 10% is too much. I'm only providing the formula and technology. The subsequent operation, production, and distribution will all depend on you running around, using your connections and resources. I can't let you only get 10%."
"Mr. Shen, this is something we did willingly!" the two quickly replied.
"No need to say more."
Shen Yu's tone left no room for argument; he made the decision directly.
"At most, we'll split it 70/30. I'll take 70%, and you'll each take 30%. If you don't agree, there's no point in discussing this cooperation anymore; I'll just find someone else to cooperate with."
Upon hearing this, Lu Zongming and Qin Zhengxiong fell silent instantly.
They exchanged a glance, both seeing helplessness and gratitude in each other's eyes.
Shen Yu has already put it this way; if they still refuse, they would be ungrateful.
The two immediately bowed deeply to Shen Yu, their voices filled with gratitude:
"Thank you, Mr. Shen! Thank you for giving us this opportunity! Rest assured, we will do our utmost to make these two brands the best in the industry and will never let you down!"
They knew perfectly well that Shen Yu was blatantly giving them money.
The 70/30 split might seem like Shen Yu is taking the lion's share, but in reality, they only need to provide the money and distribution channels to earn 30% of the profits—it's practically free money.
Shen Yu looked at the two of them and nodded in satisfaction:
"Okay, let's split it this way. I'll send you the core extraction process later. The product ratios must be strictly followed according to the formula; there can be no compromises."
"As for investment, production and operation, you can decide those things yourselves. Don't bother me with everything."
"Don't worry! There won't be the slightest mistake!"
The two immediately agreed, carefully tucking the prescription into their pockets as if they had received a royal decree.
The deal was finalized, and the two were so excited that their hands were shaking.
Qin Zhengxiong hesitated for a moment, then bowed to Shen Yu again, his face full of difficulty: "Mr. Shen, there is something else I would like to ask you for a big favor."
Shen Yu raised his eyes: "Go on."
"She is my great-niece, Su Yumei."
Qin Zhengxiong sighed, his tone anxious.
"This girl is 28 years old this year. She is the president of Su Family Jewelry and a well-known jewelry queen in Jiangcheng. More than three months ago, she suddenly contracted a strange illness. She has been to hospitals all over the country and abroad, but they can't find any cause for her illness."
"This girl is almost driven to the brink of collapse. You have extraordinary abilities, could you please take a look?"
As soon as Qin Zhengxiong finished speaking, Lu Zongming chimed in:
"Mr. Shen, I know Yumei well. She's a sensible girl and quite capable in business. Now she's being tormented by this strange illness, looking neither human nor ghost. It's truly pitiful. If you have some time, could you please take a look?"
Both of them carefully observed Shen Yu's expression, afraid of displeasing him.
They knew perfectly well that someone like Shen Yu was not someone anyone could easily persuade, and that asking him to do so was already presumptuous.
Shen Yu tapped the sofa armrest with his fingertip and pondered for two seconds.
He didn't want to meddle, but Lu and Qin had just finalized a cooperation agreement with him and were being so humble, so he had to give them some face.
"Okay," Shen Yu said calmly. "Where is he?"
Qin Zhengxiong was overjoyed and jumped to his feet, his voice trembling with excitement:
"Thank you! Thank you so much, Mr. Shen! I'll tell the Su family the good news right away and personally take you there!"
After finishing his phone call with the Su family, Qin Zhengxiong respectfully invited Shen Yu into the car.
In the car, Qin Zhengxiong explained Su Yumei's condition to Shen Yu in detail again.
"Mr. Shen, this girl's illness is really strange. At first, she just had insomnia and vivid dreams, and her mental state was not good. We just thought she was too tired from work and didn't take it seriously."
"After half a month, the situation became more and more serious. He was in a coma during the day and could not be woken up no matter how much he was called. He was like he was in a state of suspended animation. His heartbeat and breathing were very weak, but the instruments showed no organic lesions at all."
"Then he would wake up again right at midnight, completely agitated and incredibly strong, so much so that several bodyguards couldn't hold him down. He would also mutter incoherently, saying that the water was cold and that he wanted to go back into the water."
"We've been to top hospitals both domestically and internationally, and we've done every kind of test imaginable, but they still can't find the cause of the illness. We've had countless expert consultations, but in the end, all they can give us is a diagnosis of a rare and complicated case, and we're just keeping her alive with IV fluids and sedatives."
"But over the past two months, I've become increasingly weak, and it looks like I'm about to pass away. I'll have to trouble Mr. Shen to take a look and see what's wrong."
