They were undoubtedly competing against each other.

They wanted to outdo each other and obtain the Old Master’s favor to succeed as the family leader.

Such false kinship made the butler feel bad for the Old Master. The butler involuntarily thought about Shen Ruojing.

!!

How good would it be if Shen Ruojing and Shen Qianhui were here?

At the very least, the Old Master would have some kins by his side who truly cared for him instead of these two who were clearly harboring their own schemes.

At this moment, Shen Yuansong was staring at them. “How’s the current situation regarding us helping the Chu Corporation to sell medicine?”

Shen Zhong’s eyes flashed and he lowered his head, not daring to meet his gaze. “Very smoothly, don’t worry.”

Shen Yuansong nodded. He fell silent for a moment before he suddenly continued, “For the gene-deficient agent P+ medicine, our Shen Family will not be producing it in the future. Just leave it to the Chu Corporation.”

When Shen Zhong heard this, he was immediately stunned. “Uncle, what are you saying?”

Shen Chong also frowned.

This project had exhausted considerable funds and although the profits weren’t high, it had been a monopoly that only the Shen Family could produce. It was a symbol of the Shen Family. But now, Shen Yuansong actually wanted to let the Chu Corporation have the entire pie?

Based on what?!

Shen Yuansong spoke, “I’ve allowed you guys to deal with this medicine for so many years, and both of you failed to produce any results. On the other hand, the Chu Corporation managed to do so in such a short amount of time. In the past, we used to import raw materials at a high cost from overseas, allowing those companies overseas to profit. Now, it isn’t too bad if we can allow a local company like the Chu Corporation to profit instead.”

Shen Zhong’s mouth opened and closed before he suddenly spoke with indignation, “Uncle, you are thinking of the Chu Corporation, but do you know what they have done?”

Shen Yuansong started slightly. “What did they do?”

Shen Zhong continued cursing, “In order to break into the market, Chu Cichen directly reduced the price per injection to $50. He wants to advance in the guise of a retreat and gain a favorable impression of the medical and pharmaceutical industry. Hence, right now, the various large hospitals don’t mind bearing the risk of offending our family just to cooperate with him!”

Shen Yuansong was stunned after hearing this. “$50 per injection? Is this news true?”

Shen Yuansong had always wanted to lower the price.

With a monthly expenditure of $60,000, how many people would choose to give up on the medicine? How many families would face despair due to such high prices?

However, because the raw materials from overseas had a fixed cost that couldn’t be reduced, it was impossible for him to lower the prices when selling to domestic patients.

Although the Shen Family’s foundations were robust, it wasn’t robust enough to endure financial losses of hundreds of millions every month.

Moreover, even if Shen Yuansong wanted to do so, the other shareholders of the Shen Corporation would never agree.

Actually, when Chu Corporation had succeeded in their research of growing the raw materials, Shen Yuansong already wanted to allow the Chu Corporation to take a share of the pie, lowering their prices. But at that time, because he hadn’t known Shen Ruojing’s identity, he felt that doing this might cause others to feel that he was overstepping his bounds, so he didn’t mention it.

He originally just wanted Chu Cichen to lower the price to $2,000 per injection. Ordinary families would still be able to endure this price, and even poor families would be able to afford this for a single patient.

However, he didn’t expect Chu Cichen to actually lower the price to $50 per injection!

This was completely making a loss!

Shen Zhong continued, “They are already on the national news now, so how could this be fake? By doing so, they are clearly painting a picture that our Shen Family are hypocrites! However, the Chu Corporation can produce the raw materials and even sell some batches overseas, so they can mitigate the loss by using profits from overseas. As for us, we had to purchase costly raw materials from overseas completely!”

Shen Chong also quickly added, “Uncle, do you know what people outside are saying about us? They say we are evil capitalists! They basically have no idea how much effort you had to put in the past before the companies overseas were willing to import the raw materials to us. All the effort our family put in to contribute to the patients’ cause back then is now wasted!”

After the two brothers spoke, Shen Yuansong asked, “What do you mean it is a waste? We have done this for so many years and have saved thousands of lives, so how could this be a waste? Since we are in the pharmaceutical industry, we naturally have to be able to bear praises and criticisms!”

After saying that, he continued, “Chu Cichen did well! What a good lowering of the price! He truly possesses courage that I wasn’t able to match in my youth!”

The Chu Corporation chose to take the loss first before benefiting immensely.

Chu Cichen’s methods definitely weren’t meant to attract attention. The Shen Family had such deep roots in the capital, so how would those hospitals have dared to bypass them to work together with Chu Cichen?

So, something he didn’t know about must have happened.

Shen Yuansong looked at the two brothers and asked, “Just say it. What did the two of you do to force him to lower the price?”

Shen Zhong and Shen Chong exchanged a glance and didn’t speak.

“Say it!”

Shen Yuansong’s tone suddenly turned strict as he shouted.

Seeing this, Shen Zhong and Shen Chong both jumped in fright.

Shen Yuansong’s prestige in the family was far greater compared to what anyone could imagine. So, the two of them didn’t dare to conceal this anymore and started vying with each other to be the first to reveal the truth despite them having mutually agreed to keep this a secret beforehand.

When Shen Yuansong heard that they had raised the price to $30,000 per injection, he was so angry that his chest began to heave. After that, he directly tossed the teacup in his hand at their feet!

After that, he heard that Chu Cichen and Shen Ruojing had personally gone to the hospital. After seeing a patient that almost committed suicide, Chu Cichen made the decision to reduce the cost to $50. Shen Yuansong’s chin was tense after hearing all this.

He stared at the two of them and directly gave the command. “For this medicine, our Shen Family is to stop producing it immediately and stop our cooperation with the overseas companies. We will directly introduce our patients to the Chu Family!”

Shen Zhong. “…But, we signed an agreement with the companies overseas for many years.”

Back then, Shen Yuansong could only import the raw materials because he had made a huge compromise.

For example, for something that cost $1,000, he had to raise the price many times and sign an agreement for 20 years. It also meant that in these 20 years, even if China managed to complete the research on raw materials, they would still have to continue purchasing it.

Shen Yuansong coldly laughed. “They were the ones who broke the agreement first. You don’t even know how to negotiate these? If you don’t know how, I can find another person to do the negotiation.”

Shen Zhong’s body stiffened as he sensed the sharp gaze from Shen Yuansong. He suddenly felt cold from head to toe.

In the past, although his uncle had been unhappy with him, his uncle would at most be silent or choose to scold him slightly. He had never said something like this before!

His uncle definitely wasn’t someone who would make empty verbal threats. Since he had said he would find someone else to negotiate this, he definitely had the intention to remove Shen Zhong as the successor!

Shen Zhong glanced at Shen Chong who was beside him. Could his uncle have decided on Shen Chong?

He immediately replied, “I can negotiate, I know how to…”

Only then did Shen Yuansong retract his gaze. After pausing for a moment, he spoke, “Why are you still here then? Quickly go and negotiate!”

After saying that, Shen Zhong and Shen Chong were both so frightened that they quickly ran out of the room.

...

Shen Yuansong rubbed his forehead after the two of them left.

At this moment, he felt dizzy from anger due to the two of them. He couldn’t help but sigh as he complained angrily to the butler, “Look at the two of them. If only they had half of Chu Cichen’s capabilities or decisiveness, I would be able to retire completely now.”

The butler sighed. “It’s best that you don’t think about these matters too much.”

After saying that, he quickly passed the information file he had on him over. “This is the little young miss’s father…”
