As Pfizer's scheme against Yao Ke Group began anew.
Ye Yun was not present for Wang Wenwen's livestream this time.
Because it was no longer necessary.
Firstly, the hype surrounding Licorice Medicine had reached such heights that many fans would purchase it.
Secondly, he was well aware of Zhang Han's capabilities; such matters would be handled with ease.
As for Ye Yun?
He had neglected his family for a while and wouldn't continue to do so.
While career was important, so was family.
Being able to balance both was the mark of a perfect man.
Early on, he had picked up Ke Ke from Ruita Kindergarten after school and then went grocery shopping and cooked dinner.
Night.
Ke Ke was drawing alone in the study, while Ye Yun, shamelessly, lay on Li Mengyao's lap, eating fruit.
This once again made him feel restless.
"Ye... husband, will our Yao Ke Group's Licorice Medicine be sold tonight?" Li Mengyao asked, holding her phone with immense shock.
During dinner, Ye Yun had told her to check out the company's product livestream tonight, promising a surprise.
It was then she learned that the Licorice Medicine, which had taken the internet by storm,
was actually produced by their own company!
"You can take a look. Our company conservatively stands to earn over fifty million tonight," Ye Yun said with a smile.
He never intended to hide anything from his wife.
"Fifty million??" Li Mengyao felt as if she were hearing something from a myth.
"Of course! The current price for Licorice Medicine in the livestream is 800 yuan per capsule. Tonight, we've prepared 80,000 capsules. After deducting the 5% commission for Tiancheng Pictures, our estimated profit per capsule is over 600 yuan. Calculated, the net profit is estimated to be fifty million," Ye Yun explained.
*Gulp.*
Li Mengyao felt her throat dry up.
She was certainly aware of the explosive popularity and word-of-mouth for Licorice Medicine.
"Husband, you're saying the profit for Licorice Medicine is 600 yuan per capsule? Is the profit margin really that high?" Li Mengyao asked, astonished.
"This profit margin is considered low. In the normal pharmaceutical industry, the highest costs are labor and research and development. Like Pfizer's Nuseinersen, which is criticized endlessly, selling for 700,000 yuan a course, its actual cost would not exceed 200 yuan. What's expensive is its patent and R&D costs, understand?" Ye Yun explained patiently.
"Then... according to you, our profit in one day is nearly fifty million, meaning over a year it would be seventeen to eighteen billion?" Li Mengyao stammered, her head buzzing.
Seventeen to eighteen billion?
Billion?
"With the current production capacity of the two factories, that's how it's calculated. However, once I have the funds, I'll acquire two plots of land, one specifically for building a factory. When Licorice Medicine fully penetrates the market, I'll consider acquiring domestic pharmaceutical factories to further increase production capacity. At that point, the net profit should increase tenfold or more," Ye Yun said.
Acquiring land?
Building production facilities?
Net profit could increase tenfold?
Li Mengyao understood every word Ye Yun spoke, but when they were put together, she felt her brain couldn't keep up.
Ye Yun said he wanted to start a business, and the company he created was this terrifying?
"The livestream is about to start, don't you want to watch?" Ye Yun asked, smiling and pointing to his phone, while his hand also playfully pinched a certain restless spot.
Li Mengyao, still dazed, followed his gaze and opened Douyin, clicking into Wang Wenwen's livestream.
At this moment, the top right corner of the livestream already showed a staggering 3 million concurrent viewers!
On the public screen, bullet comments flew!
"Where's the Licorice Medicine? Hurry and post the link!!"
"I said before that Licorice Medicine was a scam, but now my face is bruised! My uncle has cancer, I need to buy Licorice Medicine to save him!!"
"Brother, you think you're the only one with cancer, my situation is far worse. I've been married for ten years and haven't been a man, lasting only ten seconds each time. My wife is about to cheat on me! I'm buying first, I'm buying first!"
"Damn it! You animals, if you're in such a hurry to buy, why don't you go to the Licorice Medicine online store? Why are you fighting with me here!"
"I t
However, the bullet comments gave Wang Wenwen no room to introduce anything.
The entire screen was filled with requests for links, like millions of locusts, dense and numerous.
After all, most netizens still possessed the ability to judge for themselves.
First, there was the incident with Duoduo, and second, people around them had purchased and used it, with the reputation gradually emerging.
Nowadays, who doesn't have some distant relatives or elderly family members?
Buying a capsule to strengthen the body wouldn't be bad, right?
Even if it were for oneself, this medicine could cure most common ailments, restoring one's body to its peak condition of early twenties. It was simply wonderful!
The fierce criticism before could only be attributed to seeing is believing, and hearing is deceiving. Without personal experience, no one would believe.
But now, after the Duoduo incident, most people were half-convinced.
Furthermore, the price was only 800 yuan, so being tricked wouldn't be a significant loss.
At worst, one might be chided by family.
Under these accumulating conditions, who could resist the temptation of Licorice Medicine?
