Dual Worlds: I Have a Doomsday World

Chapter 317: Chapter 227: The Si Clan’s Legacy? Explosion and Assassination 2

The original purpose of the summit was the Si Clan’s desperate bid for survival. They aimed to crush the Liu Clan’s retaliatory campaign and, along with four other major pharmaceutical corporations, re-divide the Pharmacy market in the Asian Administrative Region.

But with the Si Clan’s fall, a vacuum has appeared in the market.

This was the smaller enterprises’ chance to survive!

Building on this, Lin Qi dropped an even bigger bombshell: "The Si Clan was one of only two major corporations in the Asian Administrative Region capable of producing S-Class Potions. Excluding the Eastern Alliance’s Nanyun Potion, they were the most powerful of Asia’s five great pharmaceutical giants."

"According to information revealed by Director Jin Yuanxi, the Big Business Alliance, for the overall benefit of the region, will support one company to inherit the technical power held by the Si Clan—that is, the S-Class Pharmacy Literature and the S-Class Pharmaceutical Researcher training program."

"This is also the primary reason Director Jin Yuanxi took away the members of the Si Family."

This was a bombshell, but Lin Qi was also continuing to muddy the waters for outsiders.

By constantly dropping Jin Yuanxi’s name, Lin Qi made it seem as though United Pharmaceutical was one of Jin Yuanxi’s subordinates.

This allowed Lin Qi to conceal himself even more deeply.

After all, who would have thought that the one landing heavy blows on Jin Yuanxi through Aishwarya was Lin Qi himself?

Even if Jin Yuanxi himself were told the truth, he would have to question the intel’s authenticity.

Lin Qi glanced around the room. While the heads of the small enterprises were shocked by this news, they showed little emotional reaction.

In their eyes, self-preservation was already a victory.

S-Class Pharmacy Literature? An S-Class Pharmaceutical Researcher training program?

’What did matters like that have to do with them?’

Even with Si Pharmaceutical’s fall, there were still Moore Potion, Kudou Human Body Engineering Company, Dawn Pharmacy, and General Biological—four major pharmaceutical corporations.

’Only those four were qualified to compete.’

Even the Liu Clan, despite their comeback, would have to take a backseat in the Pharmacy Domain.

United Pharmaceutical was still far too inexperienced.

Seeing their reaction, Lin Qi figured out their reasoning in seconds. He immediately upped the ante. "Director Jin Yuanxi said yesterday that the Si Clan’s inheritance will be decided at the summit, with all enterprises—including every small business—competing for it."

At these words, the expressions on everyone’s faces changed once more.

’All enterprises?’

’Including the small ones?’

’What does this mean?’

’Has the Alliance had a change of heart?’

’Are they trying to prop up a new major corporation?’

All sorts of thoughts raced through their minds, and a covetous glint appeared in many of their eyes.

But of course, there were clever people in the room.

Xiao Gu was the first to react. His seat was second only to the three leading companies, a position determined by his relationship with Lin Qi.

"We at Rotor Pharmaceutical are willing to fully support United Pharmaceutical! If the Si Clan’s inheritance is devoured by the remaining four of the five pharmaceutical giants, the Pharmacy market in the Asian Administrative Region will completely lose its vitality. Sooner or later, like the communications and insurance industries, it will be rapidly consolidated, forming Intercontinental Giant Corporations. When that happens, what room will be left for small enterprises like us? I am willing to trust in the character of Chairman Lin and Chairman Liu. If United Pharmaceutical gets the meat, we’ll at least get some of the broth!"

Xiao Gu was well aware of the risk in speaking up now.

’But that’s how picking sides works. The more decisive, the better. The earlier you commit, the greater the reward!’

Lin Qi’s gaze immediately fell upon Xiao Gu.

’He was a little surprised, but this was exactly the result he had wanted.’

The summit’s exact procedures and competition format had yet to be determined, and United Pharmaceutical’s influence in the Pharmacy industry was admittedly weak. Lin Qi’s plan was to consolidate every channel he could leverage.

With Xiao Gu taking the lead, more people began to understand the full picture.

’This wasn’t an opportunity for all enterprises to compete.’

’This was clearly a ploy to give United Pharmaceutical a slot, and all the small enterprises were just being dragged along for the ride.’

’This was like making an entire plate of dumplings just for a little dipping vinegar!’

’If this intel had come from any other director’s office, they wouldn’t need to read so much into it.’

’But it had come from Director Jin Yuanxi.’

’Given the current relationship between United Pharmaceutical and Director Jin Yuanxi, the outcome was obvious.’

’We have to follow!’

’We have to get on board!’

’Declare our stance early!’

’Otherwise, we’ll end up as cannon fodder!’

But there was an art to declaring one’s allegiance.

Aside from Xiao Gu, no one dared to speak before the three founding pillars of the [Medical Small Business Alliance] had made their positions known.

’This was the registry of a dragon’s followers; positions had to be assigned according to merit and in the proper order.’

Tianshui Technology, Hongcao Potion, and Reid Divine Oil all declared their stances in succession.

"We small enterprises need to watch out for and help one another. Right now, United Pharmaceutical is the only small enterprise with a hope of getting a spot, and they are also a member of our [Medical Small Business Alliance]. On behalf of Tianshui Technology, I am willing to offer our support to United Pharmaceutical!"

"We at Hongcao Potion feel the same. This is the only way for us small enterprises to express our dissatisfaction with the major corporations! We only ask that United Pharmaceutical lends us a hand in the future, and prevents us from being continually eroded by the other large corporations."

"Reid Divine Oil is willing to support United Pharmaceutical!"

After the three leading enterprises had spoken, the other veteran members of the [Medical Small Business Alliance] declared their support one by one.

Without exception, every corporate leader present expressed their willingness to support United Pharmaceutical.

When everyone had declared their support, Xiao Gu made another promise to Lin Qi. "Don’t worry, Lin Qi. It won’t just be the people here today. After the meeting, I’ll go on behalf of our [Medical Small Business Alliance] and visit the new member companies one by one. If we combine our strength, we’ll be more than a match for a major corporation."
