In the early 1980s, doctors in China were truly unpolished gems, untainted by money.
Just like Comrade Zheng Haisheng and Comrade Chen Chun in front of us, they are full of passion and have never been exposed to unspoken rules. They are definitely trustworthy people.
Hopefully, with Chen Xia's support, the couple will be able to keep themselves clean and become "independent medical scientists" in the future.
While Zheng Haisheng was checking the instruments and tools he brought back, Chen Xia handed an envelope to his eldest sister.
"Hey, what is this? Wow, is this money? It doesn't look like RMB."
"This was given to me by Xiangjiang's great grandfather, great aunt, and two aunts. One for each of you. This is yours."
Chen Chun asked curiously, "Didn't you go to Hong Kong to inspect CT machines? Did you go looking for Great Grandpa later?"
"Yes, I went there with Gu Lin, the third and fourth brothers. What a coincidence, we ran into them downstairs. The old man and the old woman are living a good life now. They own an 8-story building in Kowloon Center and a textile factory. Wow, they are rich people."
Chen Chun suddenly became interested. She had just started working and didn't dare to take a two-week vacation to go to Hong Kong. This made her regretful these days.
"Tell me what Hong Kong is like? Are you welcome, Grandpa or Auntie?"
While Zheng Haibian was counting, he also pricked up his ears and listened. For a young person, he is full of curiosity about everything "abroad".
"Hong Kong, of course, is a developed city. There are dozens of stories high buildings everywhere, and the buses on the road are two-story, making a loud clanging sound as they run. As long as you have money, you can buy anything, even love. But if you don't have money, you're just picking up trash on the roadside.
Also, the housing for ordinary people in Hong Kong is very poor, small and shabby. Those with slightly better conditions live in company buildings, but those are very small. For example, your house of more than 60 square meters can probably only accommodate three families in Hong Kong. It's really not big enough."
Chen Chun obviously couldn't believe it. How could a capitalist country be so poor? They should all live in villas, drive cars, earn tens of thousands of yuan a month, and eat meat until they vomit.
Chen Xia's mind was full of complaints, while Comrade Chen Chun was happily counting money beside her. Tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars was an astronomical figure for her, and it was her personal property.
"Big sister, my great grandfather and great aunt left us a fortune in Hong Kong. They agreed that half of that eight-story building would belong to us. I don't want it anyway, but if my family and my two uncles' families want to develop in Hong Kong in the future, my great grandfather will sponsor us."
"I'm not going either."
Chen Chun said it with certainty. Although this future academician still likes to enjoy life and likes the Hong Kong dollar, he does not have much of a worshipful attitude towards foreign things in his heart. He is more of a curiosity.
In fact, Zheng Haisheng and Chen Chun never went abroad to study and earn money even in their previous lives. They had always been engaged in academic research in the country.
Seeing that Zheng Haisheng had almost finished counting the equipment, Chen Xia asked, "Brother-in-law, have you found those researchers?"
Zheng Haisheng had a cheerful look on his face, and was obviously very satisfied with the results of the inventory:
"I've found them. They're all my classmates. Don't worry, they're not just boasting about their university education, they have real skills. As soon as they heard you were getting a 100 yuan monthly allowance, they all rushed to join us."
Look, this is the power of money. Everyone needs to make a living.
"Brother-in-law, you decide how many people we need for the research, but they must be honest people. Don't leak our research, or the loss will be huge."
Chen Chun was dissatisfied: "Zheng Haisheng is such an honest man, but you still don't trust him? Really."
Chen Xia rolled her eyes. The girl was extroverted, just like Gu Lin.
Zheng Haisheng was just laughing foolishly beside him. He didn't know how this idiot would be bullied by his wife in the future.
Chen Xia then pulled out a bottle of medicine from his pocket, along with an instruction sheet. Of course, the instruction sheet was handwritten, and the medicine had no outer packaging.
"Brother-in-law, this is the drug I want you to reverse-engineer. Its scientific name is Omeprazole, temporarily codenamed "No. 1." Take a look at the instructions. It already has a detailed formula, molecular formula, etc. You don't need to study the pharmacology, kinetics, effects, and side effects. It's all there, and it's absolutely scientifically rigorous.
All you need to do is research the production process, formula, excipients, and other ingredients as quickly as possible. And you need to do it quickly, ideally within a few months, and then produce a formal pharmaceutical research report. Is that okay?"
Zheng Haisheng nodded. "It's not a big problem. This kind of research is exactly our specialty. Besides, it's just a simple study of the content and production process. It won't take long. I'm confident."
"Haha, my brother-in-law is amazing. Don't worry, I only want the patent. When the research is signed, your name will be used. You can also write a paper based on this drug, and I will help you send it to an international medical journal."
Zheng Haisheng was even more excited now.
Being able to write a paper, have it be signed by him, and have the opportunity to be published in a foreign medical journal is a great honor for a researcher like him. This is something that even his mentor cannot do.
Now I have more motivation to work.
Chen Chun was very happy to see that his girlfriend and his younger brother got along so well, and he finally had the opportunity to help.
The key is that it also opens a new door to the future for your partner.
