"ah!"

With a scream, William crossed the finish line, followed closely by Diana.

Alan looked at the results and thought that he should have a chance of getting first place, right?

…

There was no podium, just a dozen families of parents and children forming a huge semi-circle on the playground.

Allen held Harry, and Diana held William's hand, and they took the trophy and medal handed over by the principal.

The preparations were quite complete, with a small wooden medal with the name of the honor written on it in watercolor pen, which looked very childish.

The trophy is made of metal, and there is a small paper card on the base with the honor written on it.

In this situation, Allen felt like it was a dream connection. In the movie "Bad Seeds" he shot two years ago, the little heroine persecuted her classmates for the first time just for this kind of medal, but the medal at that time was made more exquisitely.

…

This kind of thing depends on the school. Some schools are wealthy and can of course use metal ones, or even directly use gold medals.

But some schools do not encourage this, and they insist on using this small wooden medal, and that's fine too.

Anyway, Alan likes it very much and it is quite commemorative.

I turned around and looked at the two groups of families around me, they were the second and third place respectively.

All the parents present today, except for the top three, also received encouragement awards, so everyone is happy and all the children have been taken care of.

…

"Haha, this school is quite interesting. They give medals to all participants. It's very thoughtful!"

Alan turned and said something to Diana.

Diana looked at Alan, speechless.

"Eh? Auntie, what do you mean by that look?"

Alan felt uncomfortable when he saw Diana's strange look.

"Don't you know? This is all because of you?!"

"I?"

Alan was stunned. What does this have to do with him?

"Ha ha……"

Diana looked at the stunned Alan and explained in a low voice.

It turns out that because of Allen's movie, although no one criticized him in the UK, the movie was still very influential!

Although the little heroine is from America, you can still see a lot of different things in this movie if you watch it from different angles.

For example, medals.

If, as was done in the past, medals were only given to the top three, the immature children would easily become jealous, just like in the movies, which would have a negative impact.

so……

Since then, most schools have started to offer this kind of reward to anyone who sees it.

This is to prevent disputes between children.

It really did what Allen wanted and served as a warning to a certain extent.

"Is this possible?"

After hearing the explanation, Allen was a little confused. He had made up all the stories at the time, and even his purpose in making the movie was ill-intentioned, but he didn't expect that someone would actually believe him...

This...it turns out that those who have money and power have the right to speak.

…

In early March in Britain, the outside world was still reporting on the luxurious lineup of Princes William and Prince Harry participating in the school sports meeting.

At this time, Alan packed up, changed into a thin suit, and prepared to inspect the pharmaceutical factory he had taken from Viscount Fox's house.

But just as the convoy was about to leave, Rex drove a shabby MG car slowly and arrived at the gate of the manor.

Seeing Allen's motorcade, Rex quickly parked the car, greeted the guard, trotted over to Allen's car and whispered, "Master... I was just about to find you to report the situation. Are you going out?"

…

Alan glanced at Rex's big belly and snorted, "The food has been good lately? Have you eaten well, used well, and done your work well?"

"Master!"

Rex's face turned red immediately. He was not shy, he was scared!

Alan seldom spoke to him like this, and compared to this somewhat sarcastic tone, he would rather have Alan scold him directly.

"Come on, I'm going to the pharmaceutical factory, we'll talk when we get there!"

Alan gave an order, the car window slowly closed, and the convoy started slowly again, leaving Rex standing there with a dry laugh. After standing there for a few seconds, he quickly ran to the door, got in the car, turned around, and caught up!

…

More than an hour's drive northeast of Carmarthen is a small town called Kington.

This is a typical Welsh town with a small population and a strong rural atmosphere. The most famous thing here is the garden and the "Lilliput Country".

It sounds intimidating, but it is actually a small but beautifully decorated miniature garden.

All the buildings inside are designed for small people the size of a palm to live in.

Of course, there are no villains now, they are all fantasy. Magic legends are flourishing around Carmarthen, with wizards and dragons, which are definitely inseparable from the legendary villains.

This is not a dwarf, this is a villain!

Just relying on such a Lilliputian garden, it can bring a little traffic to the town of Jinton.

The suburbs of Kington Town are where the Fox family’s old pharmaceutical factory is located.

The scale is not large, but the equipment is relatively new. Since taking over this industry, Alan has basically not managed them.

But this small pharmaceutical factory is still doing well. Relying on Allen's unique business - the Gambia farm, its performance has been steadily improving in recent years.

…

Ever since Alan started the Gambian breeding industry, he has been obsessed with the little blue pill that left a deep impression on him in his previous life.

Although this thing is small, it has a great effect and can save the happiness of many families.

Koreans, in particular, have made an outstanding contribution to the sales of the little blue pill.

…

It is said that after Seoul, South Korea gradually developed, the entertainment industry became extremely developed. However, although the entertainment industry was developed, Korean men were not very good.

so……

There is no other way but to rely on the little blue pills to maintain it.

Because these entertainment venues are very close to the Han River, the drainage systems will eventually discharge into the Han River.

After the little blue pill is eaten, many of its ingredients will actually mix into the sewage along with the ** and then flow into the Han River.

Koreans use a large amount of it and there are many of them, so too much of it is discharged into the Han River. It is said that during the peak period, the fish in the Han River were hard all over every day!

…

Alan is very envious of this magical drug, which, once possessed, can greatly promote the entertainment industry!

But after asking around, I found out that this thing doesn’t even exist in this era?!

It can only be replaced with a substitute drug with a greatly weakened effect.

This pharmaceutical factory now mainly produces this kind of medicine. From the factory, it is directly loaded onto trucks and sent to the dock, and then transported directly to Gambia along with the cruise ship bound for Gambia.

Alan looked at the data report and saw that sales were excellent, with explosive growth every year!

Today, Alan received a message asking for help from the head of the pharmaceutical factory. He was bored so he came to take a look.

…

From the facade, this pharmaceutical factory called Fox Pharmaceuticals looks unremarkable.

There is a huge old iron gate. The front yard of the courtyard is the warehouse area and the parking area. At this time, in the parking area, several trucks opened their rear cargo boxes and parked the cars directly against the high platform of the warehouse area behind.

The medicines sent out from the warehouse can be directly pulled onto the vehicle using a cart.

Behind the warehouse is a strip garden area of ​​several hundred square meters, and behind the garden area is the factory area.

On both sides of the garden area are the office area, canteen and non-medicinal warehouse area.

The office area of ​​the three-story small white building has a large conference room on the first floor, individual leadership offices on the second floor, and the third floor has currently been converted into a research and development area.

…

Alan looked at the factory manager in his white coat and thought... he looked like a doctor.

"Sir! Our experiment is making some progress, but we have encountered some difficulties recently."

The person in charge of the pharmaceutical factory nodded and bowed as he looked at Alan. He didn't know why the pharmaceutical factory changed its owner, but that was all the information he knew.

Viscount Fox, the old fox-like noble lord, was said to have fled to America and then... died!

His family business was gone, and it was a blessing in disguise that the pharmaceutical factory was taken over by the count and he was not fired.

…

After Allen took over the pharmaceutical factory, the factory sent several professionals to America. With the help of old Carl, they have been inquiring about the new drug for treating angina pectoris and coronary heart disease that Allen mentioned.

Later, after making inquiries from many sources, I found out that it was a new drug being developed by the famous Pfizer.

The research and development of this drug began in 1985, and after nearly four years, it finally achieved a breakthrough.

Then when it came to the key clinical trials, the results were quite devastating.

The drug efficacy is not up to standard!

In other words, the new drug project that has invested so much money and spent several years to develop has been ruined!

…

At this time... Old Carl appeared stepping on the "Seven-Colored Auspicious Cloud".

He brought his agent and lawyer with him and showed interest in the drug.

In the view of Pfizer's testing department, the drug's efficacy is unstable, its side effects are serious, and it has absolutely no commercial value.

Although some experimenters were unwilling to give up and wanted to continue to improve the experiment, there was now someone to take over.

Capital... is all about profit-seeking. If you can't make money, you have to stop losses in time.

After negotiations between the two parties, Allen finally bought all the patented technologies of this failed medicine for 20 million pounds.

…

Then... this failed product was manufactured by his Fox Pharmaceutical Factory and tested again.

But clinical trials are as expensive as research and development.

In the initial experiments, animals were used, but these animals were not mice or something like that.

But it is a macaque that is very similar to humans!

Moreover, wild macaques cannot be used. Only artificially bred macaques that are over five years old must be used.

In addition, for the purpose of experiments, special requirements have to be met for this type of macaque, so you can imagine the unit price of each macaque.

Each one costs more than 10,000 or nearly 20,000 pounds.

Hundreds of macaques have been used in the experiment, and the person in charge of the pharmaceutical factory was very terrified.

That’s more than two million pounds!

now……

It’s not that the pharmaceutical company is out of money, but that it has no place to buy macaques for experiments.

…

"You can't buy it?"

Alan was a little curious. Is there anything that can't be bought with pounds these days?

"Yes, sir... Although there are international sources, most of them are adulterated with wild macaques and are useless. In our country... the quotas for breeding farms have been allocated, and so many universities also need them. We really can't buy them unless we pay a high price."

"How high?"

Alan looked at the anxious expression of the pharmaceutical factory manager. This price increase was understandable. As long as the experiments were in place, wouldn't there be a lot of money in the future?

"Five times more."

"How many?!"

Alan was shocked when he heard the amount.

If you increase it five times, wouldn’t that be almost 100,000 pounds per piece?

The main thing is how many will be used in the end, who knows?

If a few hundred macaques were involved, then...

Tens of millions of pounds went in again.

This is pure waste of money.

…

With this price, no wonder the head of the pharmaceutical factory wanted to see him. Alan has money now, but that money is one-time and it will be gone once it is spent!

Besides, he needs to keep some money to develop other businesses. The thought of spending tens of millions of pounds on a clinical trial is painful.

Looking at Rex following behind him, Alan suddenly had an idea.

He turned his head to look at the person in charge of the pharmaceutical factory and asked calmly.

"Compared to animal experiments, clinical trials will have to be verified on humans in the future, right?"

"Ah? Yes, sir... The process is like this. The drug must first be simulated by a model. After the ingredients are verified to be feasible, it will be tested on animals. After the animal experiments are completed and the safety verification is passed, the last step is human verification."

"Um……"

Allen nodded and said, "Then... with your current clinical progress, can you speed it up a bit and go directly to human verification?"

"this……"

The person in charge of the pharmaceutical factory was stunned by Alan's question. It was not impossible, but it was a little bit dangerous.

If it were America, it would be fine. They have a lot of immigrants and a lot of people who sneak in. All you have to do is give some money and find some medicine men to do experiments. This saves a lot of money than using macaques!

A macaque costs more than 20,000 US dollars, where is the medicine provider?

Just be happy if I give you a few hundred dollars. At this price, there are many people who are willing to sign up.

But this is Wales now. There are few people here, and there are not many foreign immigrants, let alone illegal immigrants. They can't go to America to recruit experimental subjects, right?

They had worked so hard to sneak in, how could they bear to leave?

…

"This is Rex, you've heard of him, right?"

Allen pointed at Rex, and continued in Rex's confused eyes: "If you need experiments in the future, just find Rex, and he will provide you with manpower for the experiments."

Aren't those Koreans who were arrested last year of little use?

Then come and work in the pharmaceutical factory, earn some living expenses for yourself, and reduce the burden on Rex.

Anyway, Koreans will be big consumers of these little blue pills in the future, so just consider it as making a contribution to our own people in advance.

…

Following Alan's explanation, Rex, who had been listening for a long time, finally understood what this gentleman meant.

this……

“Great!”

Isn't this just making the best use of everything? He doesn't have much of anything now, but he has a lot of people!

They are all freeloaders. In order to better utilize the value of these Koreans, Rex's hair is almost turning white with worry. Now...

Isn’t it great that they can contribute to the young master’s business?

It is an honor for Koreans to help with the experiment!

"Okay! Don't worry, Master. I will send some people to assist with the experiment when I get back today."

Rex nodded excitedly and agreed, then nodded to the person in charge of the pharmaceutical factory and gave him a look that said "you know what I mean."

…

The person in charge of the pharmaceutical factory shuddered, not quite understanding what the person assisting in the experiment meant.

Could it be that because of the recent good economic development in our great Wales, there are more immigrants and illegal immigrants?

Never heard of it.
