They spent all their money on research, leaving them with no money for rent or living expenses. The university didn't value their niche research labs and didn't allocate them housing.
They held on for several years, but there will always come a time when they can't hold on any longer.
Chu Yu smiled. "Mulan, your coming to Mandarin is not a betrayal. On the contrary, I will provide you with better equipment and a better research environment. Our research lab at Mandarin is among the best in the country; you won't find a better lab in China. We will also offer high salaries to our researchers, and once the research is successful, we promise to give each person a house, a car, and a large bonus. If your teacher is willing to come, we will also provide her with stock dividends."
Lan Mulan was intrigued, "What about the research funding..."
“I’ve heard that your annual research funding used to be no more than five thousand yuan. But if you come to me, I’ll give you fifty thousand, five hundred thousand, five million! Just ask for it and we’ll meet your needs!”
Lan Mulan was moved by the numbers Chu Yu mentioned. It wasn't just about the money, but also about Chu Yu's attitude of spending a lot of money. Few people truly respect researchers like them.
"Chu Yu, are you sure you can ask for as much research funding as you want?"
Chu Yu said with absolute certainty, "Miss Lan, I've come to you with the utmost sincerity. I not only want you to join us, but I also hope that your teachers and senior colleagues will come. We at Mandarin highly respect talent, and we will do our best to provide you with the best research environment. All intellectuals deserve respect, don't they?"
The creation of recombinant collagen is no easy task, requiring procedures such as gene recombination, cell construction, and fermentation separation. Lan Mulan failed every day, but she still cheered herself up every day.
What sustains her is not money, but a love of knowledge and a desire for projects. She hopes to lend a helping hand to her teacher and help him become the first person to reconstitute collagen!
"Okay, I will definitely try my best to persuade the teacher," Lan Mulan promised.
"Mulan, please convey my appreciation for talent to Teacher Wang. Although I am young, I know that knowledge is the most precious thing. I respect intellectuals and your serious and dedicated attitude towards knowledge. But should intellectuals be destined to be poor? I don't think so. I am not a capitalist. I just believe that capable people should be respected. As long as you are willing to come, I promise to solve your housing and funding problems so that you can work without any worries."
No one ever told Lan Mulan that intellectuals should not be poor.
Chu Yu successfully left a deep impression on her.
She said solemnly, "Okay, I promise to persuade your teacher to let her go to Mandarin to establish her own laboratory!"
With Lan Mulan's words of relief, Chu Yu breathed a sigh of relief. For cosmetic companies, ingredients and technology are unavoidable topics. With Liu Mingchuan's yeast and hyaluronic acid, Mandarin cosmetics are sure to sell well.
But if you want to compete with the world's top cosmetic brands, these alone are not enough!
A vast cosmetics empire requires top-notch technology. She needs to increase investment in scientific research, allowing these talented individuals to shine and laying the foundation for Mandarin's future.
The company has already hired more than fifty employees, who are distributed across various positions in Mandarin.
Chu Yu's office in Mandarin has been renovated, and she has also hired an assistant for herself. The assistant's surname is Gao, and he is a college graduate. He is not old, but he is quite reliable.
"Mr. Zhou, these are all the samples from the first batch of products. I brought them over for you to take a look," Xiao Gao said as he entered.
Mandarin's first batch of products includes two skincare lines: the Light & Gentle line for younger skin and the Time & Time line for mature skin.
The Light & Fresh series focuses on moisturizing and whitening, is gentle on the skin, and has a lighter texture.
The Time Series has anti-wrinkle effects and contains Liu Mingchuan's patented Tiancheng, natural yeast, and hyaluronic acid. This series of products has particularly good absorption, and the laboratory data is also solid, which makes Chu Yu particularly look forward to it.
The first batch of new products launched includes toner, face cream, lotion, serum, eye cream, facial cleanser, and mud mask.
Cosmetics include eyebrow pencils, eyeshadow, lipstick, blush, and eyeliner.
Chu Yu used imported materials to make this batch of cosmetics.
Generally speaking, cosmetics are much simpler to make than skincare products. The real challenge lies in grasping fashion trends. Take lipstick colors, for example. The most difficult thing is to keep up with the times and create colors that suit Chinese skin tones and become a hit.
