Chapter 207 Chapter 207 [Jinjiang Exclusive, Capture. Reward...
In a spacious, bright and luxurious office, a man stared at the computer screen in front of him with gloomy eyes, his knuckles turning white as he gripped the mouse.
“Damn it!”
"Bang!"
The man slid the mouse twice again, and saw something. He cursed viciously and threw the mouse away.
Following the man's line of sight, I saw that the computer screen in front of him was displaying the statement issued not long ago by the pharmaceutical company under the He Group.
The man's name was Sheng Zhengze, and he also ran a pharmaceutical company. He also participated in the national bidding event a few years ago. He also participated in that bidding event, but in the end he lost to He Xiuji by a small margin.
But the man didn't take it seriously at the time. After all, although it was a bidding meeting organized by the state, the participants only knew that it was policy support for the medical field, but the other party did not make any clear statements.
Sheng Zhengze's idea at the time was that if he could win the competition, that would be the best, but if he couldn't, he wouldn't lose anything. After all, this kind of ambiguous bidding, to put it nicely, was testing the acumen and judgment of the businessmen present, but who knew what was going on behind the scenes.
With this idea in mind, everyone present at the time tried their best to get it, but in the end it was He Xiu Ji of the Yuan Group who basically gambled on his entire fortune, plus his nephew, and won it.
After the bidding meeting ended, all the bidders said congratulations, but turned around and shook their heads with regret, thinking that although He Xiuji took over and dealt with the internal and external troubles of the He family with strong means at the critical moment, he was still too young and too eager for success, and now he has fallen flat on his face.
Even Sheng Zhengze thought so at the time. He even felt that He Xiuji was courting death by trying his best to compete for a project with an unknown future.
However, not long after, after receiving the news that the state had financed He's Pharmaceutical and that it might be researching cancer cure drugs, Sheng Zhengze's good mood suddenly sank to the bottom.
It stands to reason that a businessman like Sheng Zhengze would not know such confidential information. Ultimately, the reason lies with himself.
Sheng Zhengze once went to study in Country M, and his pharmaceutical company also developed at that time. However, for some unknown reason, he returned to China for development and transferred his career back to China. In just a few years, his company developed rapidly in China and poached many scientific researchers from established pharmaceutical companies with high salaries.
The reason why he can offer such high salaries to poach people is because of the partners behind him.
Sheng Zhengze's pharmaceutical company is a Sino-foreign joint venture. Of course, this is only on the surface.
The truth is, Sheng Zhengze has been a commercial spy planted in my country by Country M from the beginning to the end. His purpose was, firstly, to supply talents to Country M, and secondly, to better obtain the latest news and talents related to drug research and development in Country Z.
After all, Country Z's great power system is to find better patriotic entrepreneurs or companies with no problems in their backgrounds among domestic enterprises, and to provide them with some policy support or great help in scientific research, which is something that many countries cannot do.
After hearing the specific news from his "collaborator", Sheng Zheng was angry, but he didn't have any further thoughts.
Although he didn't understand scientific research, he knew the difficulty of drug development, not to mention that the development of cancer cure drugs was simply impossible in the next seventy or eighty years.
Moreover, over so many years, so many researchers have not developed a drug that can completely cure cancer, and now the government suddenly says it’s okay? Who believes it.
So after hearing this, Sheng Zhengze was angry for a while, then let the news go, and felt from the bottom of his heart that the He Group that took over this project might really be finished.
Drug research itself is a bottomless pit. Before a drug is successfully developed, countless amounts of money are invested, and this is especially true for cancer cure drugs.
Haven’t you seen that more than ten years have passed, and with so many scientific researchers in various countries, no country has developed a cure? The best they can do is suppress the disease. And this is the result that took many outstanding scientists decades to achieve.
However, now, when Sheng Zhengze saw the news that the drug had been successfully developed and was about to be launched on the market, he was completely stunned, followed by indescribable panic and anger.
Sure enough, less than half an hour after the news came out, his seemingly omnipotent "collaborator" immediately called and scolded him.
Then he gave him a mandatory order, "I don't care what you do, you must find a way to get all the research data on that medicine as soon as possible. It would be best if you can get a batch of samples to send back to the country. Otherwise, we will take back everything we have given you, including your current wealth and status!"
The man on the other end of the phone said, and before Sheng Zhengze could speak, he continued: "In addition, if you can help us recruit that R&D personnel, we will give you a green card from Country M, plus a house in the capital and 100 million US dollars."
Hearing the tough orders coming from his ears, beads of sweat appeared on Sheng Zhengze's forehead and his face looked very ugly.
He might be able to complete the first request if he thought of a way, but for the second request, even if the reward was extremely tempting, there was no way he could fulfill it.
Thinking of this, Sheng Zhengze hesitated and said, "Sir, I can still find a way to get the drug samples and test data, but I think it is impossible to contact this drug developer."
The moment the information appeared in the news, Lin Yimu and his family would be immediately protected. It would be impossible for him to contact them, let alone meet them.
The man opposite, who was called Mr., heard this and said in a cold tone: "This is your business. If you can complete it, the rewards are yours. If you can't complete it, everything will remain the same."
Hearing this, Sheng Zhengze frowned and thought for a while, and finally nodded and agreed.
After hanging up the phone, he immediately smashed the phone in anger, but nothing could help him complete the task.
Looking at the overwhelming praise for Lin Yimu and the country on the Internet, Sheng Zhengze's eyes were so gloomy that tears could drip out.
After looking at it for a long time, he called the assistant assigned to him by his collaborator and asked him to arrange some internet trolls to guide public opinion.
He wants to use public pressure to force He's Pharmaceutical to provide drugs to patients for free, so that he will have more room for maneuver. No matter what, he has to complete the first two tasks first.
However, just as his measures had begun to show some success and before he could take the next step, they were terminated by a joint operation between He's Pharmaceuticals and the state.
If he continues like this, he might not be able to complete any mission, and everything he has now will disappear. He cannot accept this result, and does not want to end up like this.
Sheng Zhengze stared at the announcement issued by He's Pharmaceutical with a vicious look for a while, then stood up and left the office without caring about the mouse he threw out.
Since this method doesn't work, he can only think of another way.
But before he could walk out of the office, the door was pushed open from the outside, and several men in police uniforms walked in and pushed him to the ground without saying a word.
The sudden noise made the employees who were working outside open their mouths in panic, not knowing what to do. Of course, there were also some curious and brave people who came to the door to watch the excitement.
They just saw their boss’ hands being tied behind his back and pressed to the ground, and they all started to talk in low voices.
Sheng Zheng looked at the scene in front of him, a flash of panic in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it, pretending to be calm and looking at the middle-aged policeman in the lead, "What are you doing? Officer, I haven't done anything wrong."
The middle-aged policeman in charge looked at him with disdain after hearing this, and then said in a cold voice: "Whether he has committed a crime or not, your opinion does not count. Take him away!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked out the door with his men, attacking quickly, fiercely and accurately without saying a word.
Sheng Zhengze lowered his eyes and looked at the handcuffs on his hands. He felt that the police who came this time seemed a little unusual. Their attitude was tougher than those who came to check taxes and security in the past. This made the calmness he had been trying to maintain fall a little, and panic flashed in his eyes.
"Officer, may I know why you are arresting me? I have been doing pharmaceutical business and supporting the development of pharmaceutical industry, and I have never done anything illegal or disorderly."
The more uncertain Sheng Zhengze felt, the more he wanted to know something so that he could feel at ease.
However, none of the people who came to arrest him wanted to speak. Until they were blindfolded and sat in the car, the panic in Sheng Zhengze's heart surged like a tide, making his body as stiff as a statue.
It was not known how long it had been, but Sheng Zhengze felt the car moving slower and slower until it finally stopped. A pair of hands grabbed his arm and pulled him out of the car. After walking in twists and turns for an unknown amount of time, he was finally pushed into a room.
When the black cloth was removed from his eyes, Sheng Zhengze was already sitting in a chair in the interrogation room. In front of him sat a baby-faced man, staring at him seriously...

Northwest Institute of Aerospace
Lin Yimu is discussing issues such as rocket thrust and high performance with a group of senior professors.
Lin Yimu insisted on studying nuclear fusion reactions as the energy source for rockets. Nuclear fusion fuel is abundant, its energy far exceeds that of existing fuels by several times, and it is clean, environmentally friendly, and its safety is the highest among many fuels.
Other senior professors, however, believe that it is better to try using existing fuels. After all, although existing fuels are not as safe as nuclear fusion fuels, they are technologies that have already been realized and possessed, and they save more time and money than starting over with new research now.
The two parties have been discussing these two viewpoints for two days. Lin Yimu went from being eager to try at the beginning to being frustrated by the dissuasion of the professors. If it weren't for the system 001 urging him to complete the task as soon as possible, he would have taken his time. However, after receiving and trying the system's reward, he regained his confidence.
Lin Yimu has been at the institute for more than a month.
After dealing with various interviews and follow-up arrangements arranged by his leaders, he immediately set off for the Aerospace Research Institute and did not even have time to spend with He Xiu Ji.
After he finished delivering the medicines to various hospitals, 001 reminded him that the task bar had reached 50% and he could receive a small periodic reward, which meant that he would soon have the opportunity to receive one-on-one tutoring from professors of various subjects.
In fact, for Lin Yimu, these rewards don’t matter much. If they do, he can have someone to guide him on some obscure interstellar knowledge and understand it more deeply.
If not, it actually has no impact on him now. Although he cannot fully comprehend interstellar knowledge, it is definitely enough for the current Earth and himself to last a lifetime.
So after hearing the news, Lin Yimu was not very excited.
It was only under 001's persuasion that he tried to take the classes taught by professors of various subjects rewarded by the system. Once he took these classes, new doors were opened for Lin Yimu.
