Silicon Valley

v2 Chapter 214: My journey is the sea of ​​stars

Henry raised his head to look at Dr. Rothman, and slowly said, "How much money is still short of Amgen Biopharmaceuticals?"

"Oh, Roche invested 2.1 billion US dollars to acquire 60% of Genentech, but we want to acquire it wholly. So..." Rothman said embarrassedly. He knew that An Biopharmaceuticals and Genentech Compared with that, it's still a lot worse. If this is a wholly-owned acquisition of Genentech, it would be tantamount to a snake, and it will shock the industry!

Henry smiled and said disapprovingly: "Let's talk about it, how far is it?"

"That's it, Amgen Biopharmaceuticals currently has only 200 million U.S. dollars in funding..."

After Henry heard what he said, he couldn't help but feel a stunned, "With only 200 million US dollars, you want to buy Genentech?"

"Yes, Mr. Williams..." Rothman replied with a serious look, "Biopharmaceutical companies have no money, but we know you have money! Although you didn't announce it, it is well known that Williams The bank is yours! So, we thought, if you can get Williams Bank to lend to Amgen Biopharmaceuticals, then we can buy Genentech!!!"

Henry couldn't help laughing when he heard this!

"Dr. Rothman, you are thinking very well! For loans, I am afraid it is not a small amount... It even exceeds the market value of Amgen Biopharmaceuticals £∠chang£∠feng£∠wen£!"

Rothman's face blushed. I am afraid that no bank would agree to such a request. But Henry Williams is the chairman of Amgen Biopharmaceuticals, so there is a glimmer of hope!

"Is Mr. Williams willing to give up this opportunity. Don't you want to take Genentech?" Dr. Rothman asked rhetorically, then paused on purpose. Taking a glance at Henry's expression, he was calm. It was really hard to guess what I thought, so I went on to persuade, "Acquired Genentech, bringing together the world’s two strongest biopharmaceutical companies. With our genetic technology, we can definitely overcome various medical difficulties and develop new technologies. Many biological gene medicines will benefit the world!!!"

Henry nodded thoughtfully. Seriously said: "Dr. Rothman, your words have touched me!"

"Then...the bank can lend us money?!!!" Rothman asked excitedly.

"Don't worry, Dr. Rothman, you should know that the amount of loans Amgen Biopharmaceuticals needs is not a small amount, but every bank needs to think carefully, right?!"

Rothman was slightly disappointed: "Mr. Williams, it is correct, but Roche is also acquiring Genentech. If... I mean, if Williams Bank does not promise us a loan soon, then Amgen Biopharmaceutical companies will pass by Genentech. It's like watching a meteor fly away, but we can't help it!!"

"Dr. Rothman, please rest assured. Within three days, whether Williams Bank agrees or not. An accurate reply will be given to you!" Henry smiled and promised.

"Oh. That would be the best!" Rothman nodded.

Kailena was holding back a smile beside her. She had known for a long time that Henry wanted to buy Genentech and he was going crazy, no matter where he would refuse, and now pretending to be hesitant, in fact it was just a behaving!

After Henry and Kelena left the company, Kelena asked: "Why didn't you agree to them right away?"

"Isn't it too easy to promise so early?" Henry laughed, "Although I also want Amgen Biopharmaceuticals to acquire Genentech immediately, I must also make them aware of the importance of our investors, no Or? Otherwise, after the company grows, the more money they make, the stronger their sense of rejection, and they will even treat us as vampires attached to the company!"

"Genetic biotechnology is the future development trend of science and technology, and it will shine in medicine. Therefore, it must be firmly controlled! Have you ever imagined that humans can be changed through genetic biotechnology? Cancer patients can use genetic biotechnology to change humans? Healed; frail men can become strong through genetic biotechnology; elderly people can delay aging through genetic biotechnology; women can stay young forever through genetic biotechnology..."

"Of course, maybe what I'm talking about now is a bit exaggerated. But, science and technology are developing, who can say what will happen in the future? A thousand years ago, humans could not believe that they could fly to the moon, but now, we have done it! Cancer, maybe it will not be completely cured in the next 20 or 30 years, but 50 years, 100 years, or even longer? I believe that by then, cancer will be just like a cold, just a small illness, just take one pill. The pill is just fine!"

"There is a popular saying in Silicon Valley, that is,'Technology changes everything!' So, I have always liked technology very much!"

Kailena smiled and said: "Yes, that's right, you are about to become a technology acquisition king!!!"

"No, my journey is the sea of ​​stars!" Henry looked at her and said seriously.

When Kailena heard the words, she smiled like a flower, "Have you seen too much "Legend of the Galaxy Heroes"?"

Henry can't laugh or cry, can I say I haven't seen it? A group of pretenders in later generations have said this sentence, and they have only heard it. "Legend of the Galaxy Heroes" is more than two million characters long. It is a scientific literature, but it is a Japanese work. I haven't read it, but I know a little bit about it. Of course, "My journey is the sea of ​​stars!" But it is famous for this novel! As for the true source of this sentence, it is unknown...

It is Henry's only one sentence whether Williams Bank will lend to Amgen Biopharmaceuticals.

On the third morning, Henry estimated that Rothman and the others were also waiting in a hurry, so he told him that Williams Bank finally agreed to the loan after his exhaustion and repeated persuasion, and fully supported Amgen Biopharmaceuticals’ acquisition of Genes. Tektronix.

Rothman heard the news ~lightnovelpub.net~ glowed with excitement.

"Chairman, I will make a takeover offer to Genentech!!!"

"Well, I am waiting for your good news!"

Roche quickly submitted a US$3.5 billion wholly-owned acquisition request to Genentech. As soon as the news came out, Roche Pharmaceuticals responded immediately. Its diplomatic spokesperson declared at a press conference: Inevitable, the company decided to execute the acquisition plan at all costs!!!"

Roche's move immediately caused a sensation in the industry!

When Rothman and others received the news, they frowned!

Henry saw the nervousness of Rothman and others, and smiled faintly: "Don't worry, with me, even if Roche Pharmaceuticals is three-headed and six-armed, we dare to fight!!!"

(I am guilty, I was wrong, and the update was slow. Originally I wanted to update three times, but it was delayed by some things, so I will get up early tomorrow to fill in the code word, four changes.)
