After she became the daughter of a vicious warlord, she cleaned herself up

Chapter 139 Shareholders Meeting

The hot and humid weather in Shanghai in midsummer cannot stop the hustle and bustle of the foreign concessions.

On the Huangpu River, whistles sounded and merchant ships came and went in an endless stream.

Jiang Shiyuan sat in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the mirror.

A moon-white silk cheongsam embroidered with golden patterns outlines her exquisite figure.

The long hair that was casually tied up in the past was carefully tied up today and inserted with a white jade hairpin, making her look more elegant and dignified.

Aunt Feng stood aside, looking at the Second Young Miss in front of her who seemed like a different person, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Second Miss, you are so beautiful today!"

"Auntie Feng, when have I ever not been beautiful?" Jiang Shiyuan stroked the hair on his temples and couldn't help but joked with Auntie Feng with a smile.

Aunt Feng immediately slapped her lips twice and smiled with wrinkles on her face.

"Yes, yes, Miss, you have always been as beautiful as a flower, gentle and charming!"

Today is July 7st, which happens to be the day when Jiayuan Pharmaceutical holds its quarterly shareholders' meeting.

In the past, Jiang Shiyuan always avoided such occasions and left it entirely to Chen Xiangyun and Chen Jingan.

But today, she has to do it herself.

Because she was going to announce a decision that would shock the entire city of Shanghai, and even the entire Chinese medical community.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the large conference room of Jiayuan Pharmaceutical was filled with shareholders from all walks of life.

Everyone was whispering, wondering why Miss Jiang II was attending the event in a fancy dress, contrary to her usual style.

As the largest shareholder and future person in power, Jiang Shiyuan naturally sits in the main seat.

She looked around, her eyes firm and confident.

"Dear uncles, dear directors, I have something important to announce at today's quarterly shareholders' meeting."

She cleared her throat and said straight to the point: "I have decided that from now on, the purification and mass production methods of penicillin will be shared with major pharmaceutical companies with production capabilities across the country!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the conference room suddenly exploded.

"What? Did I hear it right? The Second Miss wants to share the formula of penicillin?"

"This is Jiayuan Pharmaceutical's cash cow! Is she crazy?"

"Isn't this Jiang family's second young lady crazy?"

Chen Xiangyun and Chen Jing'an, who represented the Jiang and Chen families respectively, remained calm and silent because Jiang Shiyuan had persuaded them in advance.

Facing everyone's doubts and opposition, Jiang Shiyuan remained calm and raised her hand, signaling everyone to be quiet.

"I know everyone is surprised, but I did this after careful consideration."

"Now, Beicheng and Jincheng have fallen one after another, and together with the three northeastern provinces, the Japanese pirates' iron hooves have been wantonly trampling on our land."

"At this critical moment, every Chinese has the responsibility and obligation to contribute our own efforts to the war against the Japanese!"

"As everyone knows, my latest domestically developed penicillin is a miraculous antibiotic that can completely surpass domestic sulfonamides."

"But even if our production lines run day and night, our production capacity is still very limited."

"By then, the Japanese war will spread from North China to South China, and even to the whole of China. That amount of penicillin will not be enough!"

"We obviously have a better solution. We cannot watch our anti-Japanese fighters die in vain because there is not enough penicillin!"

Jiang Shiyuan's voice was sonorous and powerful, and every word struck the hearts of everyone present.

The meeting room gradually became quiet.

The shareholders were all moved by Jiang Shiyuan's passionate speech, but they were still unwilling to give up such an important formula and let the huge amount of money be diverted to other pharmaceutical companies.

"Second Miss, what you said makes sense. We are all patriots and fully support the war of resistance."

"But this penicillin formula was developed by you with great effort. Are you just going to give it away for free?"

An old shareholder with gray hair spoke first.

Others also echoed: "Yes, Second Miss, you have to consider us small shareholders!"

"How about this, we license the formula to them for a fee and charge them a certain amount of patent fees, what do you think?"

Jiang Shiyuan had expected to encounter resistance. She smiled and said, "My dear uncles, I understand how you feel."

"As the inventor of the formula for penicillin, I had intended to share the formula without charge."

"But since no one agrees, as the largest shareholder of Jiayuan Pharmaceutical, I cannot act on my own."

"How about this. In order to reduce Jiayuan Pharmaceutical's losses, we will charge 10% of the revenue from future sales of penicillin to pharmaceutical companies that are willing to produce penicillin with us as patent transfer fees for five years."

As soon as Jiang Shiyuan finished speaking, the conference room exploded again.

"What? Only 10%? And only for five years?"

"Our Second Miss Jiang is really... generous and magnanimous!"

"I think she was frightened by the Japanese pirates!"

"With 10% of the patent fee, how much money can you make in five years?"

"Are we going to just give up our Jiayuan Pharmaceutical's monopoly on the market share so easily?"

Facing everyone's doubts and ridicule, Jiang Shiyuan just smiled faintly, but said the most heartbreaking words.

"Don't forget, everyone, when the nest is overturned, how can the eggs remain intact?"

"Everyone is only thinking about their own selfish desires and making a lot of money from penicillin. Don't let the Japanese pirates invade us and we will have the life to earn money but not the life to spend it!"

She knew that these people could only see the vested interests in front of them and could not see the future of the country and the nation.

One day they will understand how correct and great their decision today is.

"I have made up my mind. Uncles and aunts, if any of you have any objections, you can raise them now. I am all ears!"

Jiang Shiyuan looked around, his eyes sharp and his tone cold.

At this time, Chen Xiangyun and Chen Jing'an saw that the time and temperature were right, and took the initiative to raise their hands to vote.

"The Jiang family agrees!"

"The Chen family agrees!"

Then, the conference room suddenly became silent.

Everyone thought of the serious consequences that Jiang Shiyuan had just mentioned, and they all became worried and no one raised any objections.

In the end, this shareholders' meeting ended in an eerie silence.

Jiang Shiyuan walked out of the meeting room and breathed a long sigh of relief.

She knew that she had taken the difficult first step.

Next, there are more difficult tasks waiting for her.

But she will not back down, because China will win, the people will win, and justice will win!
