Peng Yue sent the person in charge of this pharmaceutical investment to conduct an on-site inspection. Jiang Jianian was dressed very formally this time, and Zheng Xuekai also changed his usual white coat research image and put on a suit.
The company's biggest investment right now is in the technology center. Pharmaceutical technology is also a very expensive project, but once it takes off, it will be a groundbreaking reform for the pharmaceutical industry, and not just the pharmaceutical industry, but the entire field, especially with the proposed chip therapy.
Of course, the company is not only investing heavily in chip therapy, but also restarting some of the anti-cancer drug projects previously undertaken by research institutes, which are also major projects of the company.
The company is currently mainly in the research and development stage, and some of its operations are also projects in cooperation with research institutes. Because it needs to support the research and development of the technology center, the company's revenue can only break even under such money-burning research projects. The research staff of the technology center is also very interesting. Most of them are doctoral graduates from Yenching University, and a few have not yet graduated. Because of Jiang Jianian's relationship, the professors of Yenching University directly lent people to Jiang Jianian. The rest are mostly personnel from research institutes brought by Zheng Xuekai, including several capable people that Zheng Xuekai knew before. It is this group of people who support the company.
Jiang Jianian was key to this. During bottleneck periods, he could always pinpoint the crucial points and break through several bottlenecks. Many experimental projects made good progress, except for chip technology, which was slightly less smooth. Ye Qingcheng, as a participant in the clinical trial, had his condition not well controlled for a period of time. Apart from Ye Qingcheng, the condition of the mothers of other participants was only delayed, and the effect was not even as good as chemotherapy in the hospital.
Zheng Xuekai originally intended to show the person in charge the experimental project demonstration of the technology center with some reservations, but Jiang Jianian told the person in charge the specific details of the chip technology as well.
While the person in charge was watching the demonstration, Zheng Xuekai pulled Jiang Jianian aside and said directly, "Junior, how can you be so frank? Some things need to be packaged. Although the chip technology experiment has entered a bottleneck period, it is only a necessary step to success. As long as we try through these failures, we will definitely be able to break through the most difficult stage and achieve success."
Jiang Jianian glanced at Zheng Xuekai and asked directly, "I only told them about the risks. Even the most skilled investors should know that venture capital involves risks, let alone..."
"What else?"
Jiang Jianian was not happy after learning that Peng Yuezeng's investment required relevant personnel from his company to come and participate in the company's operation. To others, Peng Yuezeng was just worried that Jiang Jianian was too young and wanted to assist him, but for Jiang Jianian, this was no longer a pleasant thing.
Ye Qingcheng hoped to gain recognition through Peng Yuezeng's investment. Jiang Jianian had already learned about Peng Yuezeng's influence from Zheng Xuekai. Even if Peng Yuezeng didn't invest in the end, it would be enough as long as the fact that he came to investigate was made public.
The person in charge had already reviewed the experimental project. Actually, he was just a layman when it came to this kind of thing. He was more here to see other aspects of the company, such as the team members, the company's finances, and the control ability of those in charge in relevant meetings. But at this moment, he couldn't help but be attracted by these new medical developments because these new technologies were so fascinating.
Zheng Xuekai came over to continue the demonstration. The person in charge all had a serious and earnest attitude. Zheng Xuekai always felt a little unsure and wondered if Jiang Jianian's words had made the person in charge have other ideas.
Only Jiang Jianian noticed the person in charge's emotional fluctuations first. Originally, Zheng Xuekai had been doing most of the introduction during this exchange, but this time Jiang Jianian spoke first, "Cancer has always been one of the most difficult diseases to conquer. IV's goal is not just the company's profit. Money is just a number. The company was founded with the initial intention of better treating cancer patients and alleviating the suffering caused by the side effects of treatment. This is inherently a very risky investment. Before success, all the funds invested may turn into bubbles—"
Zheng Xuekai nudged Jiang Jianian, but the person in charge couldn't control his emotions and said, "My sister died of cancer. She was so young, but due to long-term high-intensity work and the deterioration of her immune system, she eventually developed cancer. When it was diagnosed, it was already in the late stage. After undergoing chemotherapy, her health was very poor. She couldn't eat her favorite foods, and the ingredients in the anti-cancer drugs caused severe hair loss. She stopped looking in the mirror. In the end, she didn't die from the disease, but because she couldn't bear the side effects of chemotherapy, the drug reactions, and her increasingly weak body. She took a large amount of sleeping pills and died in her hospital bed."
Jiang Jianian remained silent, and the person in charge continued to ask, "According to what you've said, if chip therapy reaches a mature and stable stage, will my sister be able to face cancer more calmly?"
This was a matter of weighing things up. Zheng Xuekai hesitated for a moment, then sighed and said, "I'm very sorry."
The person in charge took a deep breath. "I am very happy to see such a conscientious company that may change the world in the future. However, Mr. Peng is a person who values economic returns very much. I can only give him an objective conclusion based on what I have seen. However, if possible, I am willing to invest in my own name."
Zheng Xuekai: ? ? ?
After several days of on-site investigation of other aspects of the company, the person in charge left Y City. During this period, the person in charge mentioned more than once that he would make investments in his personal capacity. Zheng Xuekai was very surprised and asked directly, "Why does he always seem to lose his composure after you finish speaking?"
Jiang Jianian said calmly, "You can notice that when you introduce certain individual projects, his expression changes slightly. Especially when you mention that chip therapy can reduce the side effects of traditional chemotherapy and drug treatment, his eyebrows tighten, the corners of his mouth turn down, his chin tightens slightly, and even his hand movements are different. These are subtle reactions that people naturally have when they are sad."
Zheng Xuekai asked in surprise, "You study this?"
"I just paid a little attention," Zheng Xuekai said helplessly. "Judging from this, although he's willing to say nice things, you directly rejected Mr. Peng's offer to send someone over to assist with management—"
“If he really wants to invest, he won’t give up the idea just because I refused. Similarly, if he doesn’t want to invest in the company, even if I agree to arrange for someone to come, he will eventually give up the idea.” Jiang Jianian didn’t care too much about this. After handing over other work at the company, he chatted with Zheng Xuekai for a few words and then prepared to return directly to S City.
Zheng Xuekai laughed and said, "You have a place to live in Y City, so why did you travel all the way back? Let's have a late-night snack and chat tonight. You can go back to your villa area to stay. Even if it doesn't work out in the end, it will still be an epic achievement for our company. We almost got Peng Yuezeng's investment!"
"I need to go back to my girlfriend," Jiang Jianian coldly rejected Zheng Xuekai.
Zheng Xuekai was taken aback at first, then exclaimed incredulously, "You're in a relationship? When did you start dating?!"
