"Thank you for your praise, Mr. Lu," Manager Chen said with a smile.
"How is the company's sales recently?" Lu Fan glanced and asked, "With the acquisition of the Yang Corporation, it seems it's going to be sooner than expected."
"Rest assured, Mr. Lu, the sales of Yangxin Dan have spread throughout the market, and the Yang Corporation's performance is gradually declining. It won't be long before there's no room for other pharmaceutical companies within Qingzhou," Manager Chen said with full confidence. "This is all thanks to Mr. Lu's prescription."
"That would be for the best!"
Lu Fan nodded. His company, Taikang Pharmaceutical, was gradually growing, and he felt a sense of joy. He hadn't been in such a hurry, but the events of over a decade ago still weighed heavily on his mind.
Uncle Fu had promised him that once he grew stronger, he would tell him the truth, something Lu Fan had been looking forward to.
At least in Lu Fan's eyes, the revenge for his clan's destruction was an irreconcilable debt, and he would never slacken.
A commercial car drove up to the entrance of Taikang Pharmaceutical, with several figures inside.
"Grandfather has arrived at Taikang Pharmaceutical!"
Looking at the tall buildings outside, Yang Jiaqi said, "I heard that the chairman of Taikang Pharmaceutical is young and promising. I wonder if it's true."
"If it's true, do you have any ideas?" Yang Ding Tian smiled. "Don't you have a suitor?"
"Don't mention it. He was unwilling to spend money on me, so I sent him away," Yang Jiaqi said with a dark expression. "What a waste of time."
"If it doesn't work out, then don't pursue it. After all, your career is more important, and the Yang family will be yours in the future," Yang Ding Tian smiled. "When we get upstairs, don't speak carelessly. Let me do the talking."
"Don't worry, Grandpa. No matter what, you are a big shot in the pharmaceutical industry, and Taikang Pharmaceutical will naturally give you face. With Yang Corporation as their agent, they'll be eager to flatter us," Yang Jiaqi said with a smile.
"Even so, I'm still a little worried about not securing the cooperation order," Yang Ding Tian shook his head. "In just a few days, the Yang Corporation has become so difficult to deal with. Taikang Pharmaceutical is not simple."
Yang Jiaqi also nodded slightly. After a while, they arrived at the lobby. After speaking with the receptionist, they waited to the side.
In the office on the eighteenth floor, Lu Fan finished reading a document when Secretary Li walked in from outside. "Mr. Lu, someone from the Yang Corporation has arrived."
"I won't see them!" Lu Fan said indifferently. "Just send them away."
"If it were anyone else, I could handle it," Secretary Li said awkwardly. "But today's visitor is no ordinary person; they are the general manager of the Yang Corporation."
"Is it the Yang family patriarch?" Lu Fan narrowed his eyes. "He's actually here!"
"Mr. Lu, will you see them or not?" Secretary Li asked.
"Let them come up!" Lu Fan smiled. "They will know sooner or later who the true helmsman of Taikang Pharmaceutical is."
Secretary Li nodded and headed towards the lobby on the first floor.
Old Master Yang sat on the sofa with the demeanor of a magnate. Although he was still waiting for notification, his expression was still proud.
He had considerable influence in the entire pharmaceutical industry. For him to personally come to Taikang Pharmaceutical, the person behind Taikang Pharmaceutical would never dare to keep him waiting.
"Grandpa, why is there no news yet?" Yang Jiaqi frowned. "Are they trying to make us wait?"
"Let's wait a little longer, don't be anxious," Old Master Yang smiled. "For me to personally visit Taikang Pharmaceutical, they shouldn't be so disrespectful."
"Please excuse Old Master Yang for waiting!"
Secretary Li walked over with a smile, appearing polite.
"What's going on?" Yang Jiaqi said indignantly. "The Yang Corporation is here to discuss cooperation, and making us wait this long, is this showing sincerity?"
"Miss Yang, you misunderstand. Taikang Pharmaceutical does not seem to have invited the Yang family for cooperation," Secretary Li said with a smile. "Did I receive incorrect information?"
"You..." Yang Jiaqi's face turned ashen, further infuriated.
However, he couldn't refute it. As Secretary Li said, Taikang Pharmaceutical had not invited the Yang family for cooperation. They had come uninvited, and even if they were kept waiting, it would only be considered their own fault.
"Jiaqi, what did I tell you when we came?" Old Master Yang said with a cold face.
Yang Jiaqi shut his mouth and said no more.
Secretary Li led the way and soon brought them to the conference room. "Please have some tea. Mr. Lu has some matters to attend to and will come to the conference room after he finishes."
"Thank you for your hospitality!" Yang Ding Tian said with a smile. "We are not in a hurry, so Mr. Lu doesn't need to go out of his way."
Secretary Li nodded and left the conference room with a smile.
"Grandpa, they are too arrogant! They've left us waiting here."
Yang Jiaqi said indignantly, "I haven't been treated this way in Qingzhou."
"Taikang Pharmaceutical is testing our sincerity," Yang Ding Tian smiled. "We just need to wait patiently and not worry too much. As long as the cooperation can be finalized, the Yang Corporation will surely reach a new level in the future."
Although Yang Jiaqi was displeased, since his grandfather had said so, he naturally wouldn't dare to disobey.
After waiting for a long time in the conference hall, Yang Jiaqi's face gradually turned ashen. As the future leader of the Yang family, when had he ever suffered such humiliation?
"I'm truly sorry for being late!"
A voice sounded, and Lu Fan slowly walked in. "I apologize for making everyone wait."
"Lu Fan?" Yang Jiaqi glanced at him. "What are you doing here causing trouble?"
"Isn't the Yang family here to discuss cooperation?" Lu Fan shrugged. "I am the person in charge of Taikang Pharmaceutical, and also the chairman of Taikang Pharmaceutical."
"The chairman of Taikang Pharmaceutical?" Yang Jiaqi burst into laughter. "You? You think you're worthy?"
Yang Ding Tian also frowned. Even he didn't believe Lu Fan was the chairman of Taikang Pharmaceutical, but Lu Fan's appearance did surprise him.
"Believe it or not, I'm the real deal," Lu Fan shrugged. "Since you don't want to talk, then leave Taikang Pharmaceutical!"
Just then, Secretary Li also walked in and said to Lu Fan, "Chairman, the matters you instructed have been arranged!"
Lu Fan nodded slightly and sat to the side.
"Chairman? Is he really your chairman?" Yang Jiaqi stood there stunned.
"The real deal. The chairman of Taikang Pharmaceutical is also called Mr. Lu," Secretary Li said directly.
Yang Jiaqi's face turned ashen. Just as he was about to get up and leave, he was pulled back by Yang Ding Tian, who whispered, "Don't lose your composure. No matter who it is, as long as we can secure the cooperation, the Yang family will not suffer a loss."
Yang Jiaqi suppressed his anger and slowly sat down. In his eyes, Lu Fan was just a country bumpkin. Why had he suddenly become the chairman of Taikang Pharmaceutical, forcing him to compromise? All of this filled him with resentment.
