Seeing the price soar to 3 billion USD, those rich people who did not have enough money were all distressed. Their eyes even burst out with killing intent.
Yes, since only one of them could have the medicine, don't blame them for being unscrupulous!
In fact, everyone had this kind of idea. They couldn't just watch themselves die, but they didn't have that much money to continue bidding. However, in this world, there were always people who would do anything for you for only a few tens of millions of dollars.
For example, killing people and robbing them.
The Middle Eastern tycoon was indeed not sick, but he underestimated the crazy thoughts of those who were sick and in urgent need of help.
Even a cornered dog would jump over a wall, let alone a person who had no other choice in the face of death. He would do whatever it took.
The Russian tycoon and Silicon Valley tycoon looked at the Middle Eastern tycoon's 3 billion bid.
The host paused for a moment and said loudly, "3 billion going once!"
The audience was anxious.
"3 billion going twice! Is there any guest who would like to bid higher? 3 billion going twice! "
The Russian tycoon's eyes were conflicted, but this was already the highest amount of money he had.
The Silicon Valley tycoon thought for a while and gave up.
The host suddenly slammed the gavel. "3 billion going thrice. Congratulations to the tycoon from the Middle East. You actually won the Datura Potion at a price of 3 billion USD. I think you will be able to enjoy your life unscrupulously. Even if you get sick, you have no worries!"
The Middle Eastern tycoon stood up excitedly and hugged his other partners. Then, the people around him began to call home to bid for the good news of the medicine.
It didn't matter if the rich people who didn't win the bid were not sick, but those who were sick but still went to the auction personally sat in their wheelchairs and sighed without any attachment.
The auction house boss in the backstage vomited blood.
Tonight, he had lost a total of 30 million from the handling fees and commission of the auction!
And in order to earn a small profit of 7 million USD, he lost 23 million USD!
23 million USD was enough for him to pay off his debt and profit.
His father came over and gave him a slap. "You idiot, hurry up and find Datura Studio to maintain cooperation. In the future, when they develop it, they will continue to bid."
The boss of Santander was stunned. By the time he reacted, other auction houses were already looking for Datura Studio to negotiate.
The news media was in an uproar.
A drug developed by a Mandala Medical Studio in the United States could treat cancer. A bottle of 20 milliliters of injection was auctioned for 3 billion USD, breaking the world auction record.
On this day, Merika's media was all about the Datura potion.
This little-known small studio immediately caught everyone's attention, and all the medical institutes in Merika were looking for this studio, requesting to cooperate with them in research and development. The evaluation report from Wall Street even estimated Datura's market value at a conservative 100 billion USD. Of course, it wasn't listed yet, and it was just a studio, but its market value had already been hyped up to the market value of a first-tier company.
Don't think that it only developed a small amount of cancer medicine now. If it was popularized one day, it would be the time for this Mandala Studio to ascend to the heavens. It could even use patent fees to earn money from hospitals around the world in the future.
The value was hard to estimate. Based on the data, the Datura Studio's new cancer every year. According to the Datura World's statistics, World's Datto the world's 7 million. If this medicine was popularized in the future, it wouldn't be cheap, right? With the research and development costs, even if more than 1 million out of the 7 million people received the treatment, Datura Studio's income would still be terrifying.
In the future, even if the drug was priced at 300,000 USD and the patent fee was 20,000 USD. Then, just the patent fee alone would reach 20 billion USD!
So, being valued at 100 billion USD was already considered conservative on Wall Street.
Stenson came to Xu Cheng's home and complained, "Boss, I just bought a house a few days ago and I don't even dare to go back. Those people on Wall Street are too scary."
Lin Dong brewed some tea, and Xu Cheng took a sip and said, "They want to invest?"
Stenson nodded. "A venture capital company is willing to invest 5 billion USD for 20% of Datura's shares."
Xu Cheng sneered, "They're very smart. They want to invest before our technology is completely perfected, and the price is indeed reasonable. But don't come and talk to me if it's lower than 50 billion. Just tell the public that the studio currently has 3 billion USD, and it's enough for us to continue our research and development. For the time being, we don't need to consider going public or financing, and we don't need to accept investments."
If it wasn't perfected, then it was just him lying to the public. He could popularize it now, but the cake was too big, so he couldn't announce this news yet.
Stenson nodded. "A lot of people are looking for the owner of the studio, Boss. They probably found out that I replaced the legal owner with someone else. That guy doesn't know anything, and now they're suspecting that there's someone else behind the scenes."
"Who cares. I have nothing to do with this studio, so it's fine as long as they can't find me," Xu Cheng said indifferently.
Stenson bitterly smiled. "They even used the Nobel Prize to get you to come forward and accept the award. I can see that they've invested a lot of capital."
"For capitalists, everything is controllable. It's normal. I'm not interested in the Nobel Prize." After Xu Cheng took a sip of tea, he said to Stenson, "Now you've seen my situation. If you want to continue to follow me, the money is in your hands, and you can hire some bodyguards to avoid trouble. If you're scared, you can quit, and I won't trouble you."
Stenson wasn't stupid. The more he understood his boss, the less likely he was to jump out of the car. If he did, he would die. Even if it wasn't now, he would die in the future. The most important thing was that he now had more than 10 billion yuan in his hands! There would only be more and more in the future. Although it wasn't his, right now, who wouldn't give him face?
Most of the time, Xu Cheng didn't do investments, and his funds definitely wouldn't be deposited in the bank. So, most of the time, it was Stenson who did lending projects and investments on Wall Street. This was something Xu Cheng allowed him to do. Now, he could be said to be a famous wealthy man on Wall Street. This sudden change in status made him feel very comfortable. This was the country of American capital.
"No, Boss. Everything I have now was given to me by you. Although I'm a profiteer and have no faith to speak of, I still know what it means to be grateful and to have a bottom line. " Stenson said, "Unless one day you feel that I'm not capable anymore, I don't think I will take the initiative to leave."
Xu Cheng nodded. Currently, Stenson had more and more funds in his hands, and he hadn't made any small moves, which was why Xu Cheng didn't have the intention to kill him.
