Chapter 739

At this moment, Kobayashi Jiro could not help but be angry.

Nine Mysteries Stomach Powder's therapeutic field was exactly the same as Kobayashi Stomach Powder; it was an absolutely benchmark product.

However, the efficacy of Nine Mysteries Stomach Powder was much more powerful than Kobayashi Stomach Powder!

Moreover, what was even more hateful was that the packaging specifications, net content, and selling price of Nine Mysteries Stomach Powder were all on par with Kobayashi Stomach Powder!

This was very difficult to accept!

It was much better to use than Kobayashi Stomach Powder, but the quantity and price were exactly the same.

Wasn't this the rhythm of forcing Kobayashi Stomach Powder to death?!

Coupled with the fact that Nine Mysteries Stomach Powder had Gu Qiuyi's endorsement, it suddenly became popular in the local Chinese market, which was equivalent to completely strangling Kobayashi Stomach Powder's grand wish to expand into the Chinese market!

Moreover, being defeated by Nine Mysteries Stomach Powder in the local Chinese market was only the first step!

It went without saying that Nine Mysteries Pharmaceutical would definitely not be satisfied with just the Chinese market for such a good medicine. They would definitely export to countries around China and even to Europe and the United States as quickly as possible!

If Nine Mysteries Stomach Powder landed in the Japanese market, wouldn't that mean Kobayashi Stomach Powder's home base would be snatched away?!

If Kobayashi Stomach Powder lost its overseas market and also lost its domestic Japanese market, then the future of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical would be worrying!

In other words, this Nine Mysteries Stomach Powder could potentially lead Kobayashi Pharmaceutical to ruin!

More importantly, all of Kobayashi Jiro's hopes were pinned on Kobayashi Stomach Powder!

All of Japan was optimistic about his Kobayashi Stomach Powder, and there was much praise for the efficacy of Kobayashi Stomach Powder and the future of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical.

This included the head of the Ito family, who was Ito Nanako's father, Ito Yuhiko.

The reason Ito Yuhiko wanted to marry Ito Nanako to him was to use this to marry into the Kobayashi family and then get an opportunity to invest in Kobayashi Pharmaceutical.

If the prospects of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical suddenly turned from bright to dim, then Ito Yuhiko would definitely lose interest in him and Kobayashi Pharmaceutical. In that case, what would he have left to marry Ito Nanako?!

You must know that Ito Nanako was the goddess crazily pursued by all of Japan, known as the "Yamato Nadeshiko" of all Japan, and could be said to be the most perfect goddess in all of Japan. No matter what, he could not let her slip through his fingers!

Thinking of this, Kobayashi Jiro immediately said to the assistant beside him: "Investigate the background of this Nine Mysteries Pharmaceutical for me, be quick!"

The assistant nodded hurriedly: "I understand, Chairman, I will arrange for people to investigate!"

Kobayashi Jiro asked again: "Have you contacted Gu Qiuyi's agent? What did the other party say?"

"Contacted." The assistant said somewhat angrily: "The person I contacted is named Chen Duoduo. Damn it, that woman's tone was too big. I said I hoped to invite Miss Gu to endorse our product, and she directly said that Miss Gu would no longer accept any endorsements for substantive products, and only endorsed Nine Mysteries Stomach Powder exclusively..."

"What the hell!"

Kobayashi Jiro was dumbfounded and blurted out: "How much endorsement fee did Nine Mysteries Pharmaceutical give Gu Qiuyi?! Did they buy out all her substantive product endorsements?!"

The assistant said embarrassedly: "Chairman, I don't know about this. The other party didn't let me ask in detail and hung up the phone directly..."

"What a jerk!" Kobayashi Jiro said with a dark face: "Since that's the case, we can only find a way from Nine Mysteries Pharmaceutical. No matter what, I must buy their prescription patent!"

The assistant asked carefully: "Chairman, is this medicine very effective?"

"Very..." Kobayashi Jiro said depressedly: "At least ten times more than Kobayashi Stomach Powder!"

The assistant seemed to be struck by lightning: "Ten times?! The gap is so big?!"

Kobayashi Jiro nodded and said with a gloomy face: "You must not spread this matter. If we can get the prescription for Nine Mysteries Stomach Powder, we can reverse everything and even reach a higher level. But if we can't get the prescription, Kobayashi Pharmaceutical will be in big trouble!"

Hearing this, the assistant couldn't help but ask: "Chairman, such a good prescription is a cash cow for anyone. Will this Nine Mysteries Pharmaceutical agree to sell it to us?"

Kobayashi Jiro gritted his teeth and said: "It concerns the survival of our Kobayashi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.! No matter whether they agree or not, I must force them to agree!"

Kobayashi Jiro did not realize that he had completely fallen into the same madness as his brother Kobayashi Ichiro.

Back then, Kobayashi Ichiro coveted the divine medicine Ye Chen gave to Shi Tianqi, wanting to use the divine medicine to cure his father Kobayashi Masao's paralysis, and even make Kobayashi Pharmaceutical stand at the pinnacle of global pharmaceutical companies, which was why he took the risk and finally ended up living under an assumed name, feeding dogs at Hong Wu's dog farm.

And Kobayashi Jiro, unknowingly, pushed open the same door of fate as his brother.

Soon, the assistant got the investigation results.

He reported to Kobayashi Jiro: "Chairman, I have found some information about Nine Mysteries Pharmaceutical. It turns out that this company was called Wei's Pharmaceutical. When we evaluated Chinese pharmaceutical companies before, we also evaluated this one. At that time, the total market value was around two or three billion, not a very large enterprise, and we never took it seriously."

Kobayashi Jiro frowned and asked: "Then why did it change its name to Nine Mysteries Pharmaceutical?"

The assistant said: "I haven't received news about this yet. However, after changing its name to Nine Mysteries Pharmaceutical, their equity structure has also changed. Previously, the Wei family held 100% of the shares, but after the change, the Wei family only held 20%, and the remaining 80% was held by a mysterious person."

"Mysterious person?" Kobayashi Jiro asked in surprise: "Can't you find out who this mysterious person is?"

"Can't find out." The assistant reported: "This equity structure has top lawyers behind it, hiding the key information of the major shareholder. We can't find out who holds these 80% of the shares. Chairman, I think this matter is not simple. This major shareholder behind the scenes might have a very strong background! We must act cautiously!"

Kobayashi Jiro nodded and gritted his teeth: "I know that without you telling me. This person's background must be unusual, but we can't care about so much now. Kobayashi Pharmaceutical is about to take off, and I absolutely cannot allow it to be cut off by this Nine Mysteries Stomach Powder at this time!"

The assistant hurriedly asked him: "Chairman, what do you mean?"

Kobayashi Jiro said: "First thing tomorrow morning, go to Nine Mysteries Pharmaceutical!"

The assistant said: "Chairman, first thing tomorrow morning, Miss Nanako is going to participate in the finals! Aren't you going to the scene to cheer for her?"

Kobayashi Jiro waved his hand impatiently: "The top priority now is to take down Nine Mysteries Pharmaceutical! If Nine Mysteries Pharmaceutical can't be taken down, then I won't be able to take down Nanako either! If Nine Mysteries Pharmaceutical can be taken down, then Nanako won't be able to escape my palm sooner or later!"

The assistant immediately nodded and said: "Chairman, I understand!"

Kobayashi Jiro said again: "By the way, hurry up and contact now, mobilize a group of experts from the country, and try to get them to Jin Ling by noon tomorrow. In case Nine Mysteries Pharmaceutical is tough and can't be taken down, let this group of experts solve it!"
