Chapter 271 Five Bio-Gene Companies

After being shocked for a long time, Rothman told Henry another thing.

"Chairman, in order to speed up the research, I propose to acquire several biogenetic companies that have researched in the field of brain nerves or genetic variation!"

Henry nodded, and felt that it should be the case.

Gene Umbrella is made up of Quiet Biopharmaceuticals and Genentech, whose previous research directions rarely involve the brain. Although it is said that the technology of the genetic umbrella is absolutely excellent, in any case, there are companies specializing in the surgery industry, specializing in the research of brain or genetic variation, and the technology is definitely not bad.

Henry asked, "Do you have a goal?"

"Yes," Rosman said slowly, "I have found five targets so far!"

Henry nodded to him and motioned for Rothman to continue.

"The first is BiogenIdec (Biogen Idec), which is the oldest independent biopharmaceutical company. The focus of the company's research is on biological products for neurological diseases! Since Biogen Idec studies the nervous system, It must help us!"

"Well, yes, let's talk about other companies."

Rothman nodded, then continued to introduce: "The second company is a life science and technology company, whose main business areas are: biological genetic equipment and gene sequencing technology. Many cutting-edge or special biological equipment uses the products of life science and technology companies. .In response to your symptoms, Chairman, we need life science and technology companies to tailor a variety of treatment and testing equipment for you! And life science companies' gene sequencing technology is also world-class, which can determine the full sequence of genes by analyzing blood or saliva, Then compare it with the full gene sequence of a normal person, and then identify what is wrong! Perhaps, through this technology, we can genetically see the difference between you and ordinary people!"

Henry was slightly startled. Gene sequencing can be regarded as a technology that changes the world. Even Apple founder Steve Jobs chose to use gene sequencing to treat diseases...

"Go on! What other company!"

"The company below..." Rothman hesitated before saying, "This company is called Illumina (Ilumina), and it mainly studies genetic variation and its function!"

Hearing this, Henry couldn't help but move.

"Well... this research direction is also very good!" Henry narrowed his eyes slightly and said slowly to Rothman.

"Yes," Rothman added, "and they have also developed 'microarray chips' that can be used to detect important changes in specific parts of the genome, if the 'microarray chip' is combined with genes from life sciences companies Sequencing technology has an immeasurable role in detecting your genetic variation!"

"Well, that's right!" Henry heard the words and nodded involuntarily. First use gene sequencing technology to determine the full sequence of your own genes, find the "problem" part, and then use the "microarray chip" for observation and analysis!

After listening to Rossman talking about the three companies, Henry felt a little bloody and excited, as if he was getting closer and closer to successfully rescuing himself...

"Rossman, what are the remaining two companies?" Henry asked eagerly.

"It's Incyte and Human-Genome-Sciences!" Rothman said, "their expertise lies in the analysis of genetic information!"

Although Rothman just summed up the two companies in one sentence, Henry knew that the analysis of genetic information was as important as the analysis of big data in the Internet!

Henry subconsciously began to analyze the five biological companies that Rothman gave him.

The first is Biogen Idea, which develops drugs to treat the nervous system. It must be useful and must be acquired.

The second is a life technology company, which not only needs to tailor high-tech biological genetic equipment for its own situation, but also has gene sequencing technology, which must be acquired.

The third company is Ilumina, which mainly studies genetic variation, which is in line with its own situation, and has also developed a "microarray chip", which is a combination of two swords with gene sequencing technology!

The fourth Insett and the fifth Human Genomics are simply big data analysis companies in the field of genetics, absolutely useful.

call……

Henry breathed a sigh of relief and said solemnly to Rothman: "Dr. Rothman, you estimate the number, I will buy all these companies!"

Rothman knew something about Henry's temperament and seemed to have expected him to say so.

"About $50 billion!!!" Rothman said directly without having to calculate.

cough cough...

Hearing this number, Henry choked twice.

"The main reason is that the first three companies are expensive, and the last two companies, as long as 3 billion US dollars is enough to acquire!" Rossman explained.

Henry nodded after listening, but he was thinking about whether his money was enough. The 100 billion US dollars brought back from the Soviet Union, the purchase of broadcasting companies, the purchase of football teams, etc., spent more than 20 billion US dollars, plus other expenses, a total of nearly 30 billion US dollars was spent.

By the end of this year, Henry estimates that there will be about $15 billion in dividends.

Among them, more than 35% of dividends come from Williams Electronics, 15.5% from Williams Network, 12% from Williams Bank, 10.5% from Williams Telecom, 7% from Williams Investment, 5% From Williams Film and Television Media!

The amount of funds currently available is at least $85 billion!

However, this amount of money may not be enough to buy hospitals and biopharmaceutical companies in large quantities.

Who cares, there must be a way to the front of the mountain, there will be dividends next year, and the profitability of the company under his name is getting stronger and stronger! After Clinton was elected President of the United States, he listed all the Internet companies to make money, and then used the money to invest in more high-tech!

Having money without life is the biggest pain in life!

Henry thought for a while, and then said to Rothman: "Okay, isn't it $50 billion... I can still afford this amount of money!!!"

...

...

Seeing Henry come out, Sophia looked at Henry angrily, because she had been waiting here for two or three hours. But what annoyed her the most was not waiting here for two or three hours, but because the staff didn't allow her to walk around.

"I'm sorry, Miss Sophia, there are company secrets involved, and outsiders are not allowed to enter!"

"Sorry, Miss Sophia, outsiders are also not allowed here!"

"..."

"What's so great, don't go in if you don't go in!" Sophia said to the staff angrily. In fact, as soon as she came to the Gene Umbrella Company, she was shocked by the company's powerful technology, and the Gene Umbrella Company was in The industry is so famous that Sophia is very curious about it!

Henry was stunned when he saw Sophia's expression, when the staff next to him came to Henry and whispered, and then Henry knew the whole story. Henry thought it was something, but it turned out to be this, and couldn't help but smile.

"It's done, let's go!" Henry waved, greeted Sophia, and walked outside.

Sophia looked at the back of Henry who left without asking, and stamped her feet angrily, then followed.

After Henry left Gene Umbrella, he began arranging acquisitions of hospitals and biopharmaceutical companies.

Since this acquisition was too large, in order to complete the acquisition plan as soon as possible, Henry had to find a number of companies with professional capabilities for help.

Although Blackstone Group was established only a few years ago, it has developed rapidly and has become a financial star on Wall Street.

Williams Investment Company, under the auspices of Kareena, once invested 100 million US dollars in Blackstone Group, obtaining a 40% stake. Blackstone Group is very experienced in acquisitions, and Henry handed over all the acquisitions of American hospitals to them. Henry's own professional acquisition team is responsible for the acquisition of five biopharmaceutical companies.

After the Blackstone Group got the list, they almost jumped up with excitement.

"It seems that it was correct to accept the investment from Williams Investment Company, otherwise, how could our Blackstone Group grow so fast, and now we have such a big list... Oh, my God, the National Hospital, Henry William Is James going to monopolize the American hospital industry?!!”

"It's going to change..."

"..."

The Blackstone Group acted very quickly and immediately held a meeting to formulate a detailed acquisition plan.

The acquisition team on Henry's side is always ready, under Henry's order. Initiated acquisitions to five biogene companies respectively.

For a time, the United States was surging.

Full-page, full-page newspapers are reporting large-scale acquisitions.

"Henry Williams may have been greatly stimulated because of the coma. He is now going to enter the medical field, and as soon as he made a move, he launched a jaw-dropping acquisition. This acquisition will be unprecedented in history... "

The outside world is already in chaos, but Henry lives a plain and regular life.

Get up at 6am, run for exercise, have breakfast at 7am, and get a medical checkup from Sophia. On the weekend, Henry is going to Gene Umbrella to do another in-depth inspection. I usually work at home through the computer, and if necessary, I will visit the company.

During this period, Pixar Animation Studio's "Toy Story" began to promote, fully computerized feature-length film, very gimmicky, and the film is expected to be released on Christmas Day!

After Pixar finished working on Toy Story, Henry went to get a sneak peek.

This movie is still very different from Toy Story in its previous life, but it's just as good! With Henry's support, Pixar Animation Studio has enough financial resources, technology and time to make this "Toy Story", which took three years and finally completed!

This Christmas, "Toy Story" will probably become a super dark horse, shocking everyone's attention.

The moment for Pixar Animation Studios to make a name for itself is finally coming.

October has passed.

November has passed again.

By the beginning of December, after more than three months, Henry spent $45 billion to finally complete the acquisition of five biogenic companies!

Five companies were merged into Gene Umbrella. If a listed company was listed, it would be delisted from Nasdaq and completely reduced to a subsidiary of Gene Umbrella.

Immediately after that, Henry reorganized five companies!

Biogen Idea Corporation was reorganized into the "Nervous System Division."

The life science and technology company was reorganized into "Bio-Gene Equipment R\u0026D Department" and "Gene Sequencing Department".

The Ilumina Corporation was reorganized into the "Gene Variation Division".

Insett and Human Genomics were reorganized into "Genetic Big Data Analysis Division".

When Henry came to the brain research and development center on the tenth floor under the Gene Umbrella again, it was already full of talents.

Henry walked into the research center and happened to hear them discussing how to save him!

"Through testing, we have confirmed that Mr. Williams has indeed undergone a genetic mutation, and we have found that one of the genes is very different from ordinary people! These new genes, we have never seen before!"

"Yes, or it may be because of these genetic variants that Mr. Williams' disease is caused!"

"This is really tricky. Usually, we directly remove the mutated gene to treat the disease. However, this method is unknown, and it may be cured, but it may also happen because of the removal of this gene. The expected danger! After all, we don't know anything about this new gene, and we have no idea what role it has in the human body..."

"Yeah, this method of excising the mutated gene parts will not work. If something goes wrong, none of us can afford it! We still find a more secure method!"

"Then analyze what substances are secreted by the cerebral cortex to cause Mr. Williams' brain abnormalities. If we can kill this substance, we can delay the aging speed of Mr. Williams' brain!"

"Well, that's one way!"

Henry listened to the cold sweat, how could he come up with such a terrifying method to remove the gene... Fortunately, the plan was changed in the end!
