Chapter 713 - 713 The Little Expert at Mediating
713 The Little Expert at Mediating
Since he had nothing to do in the afternoon, Lin Yi prepared to return to Jiuzhou Pavilion to work on Chip 3.0.
Director Shens research could make progress at any time.
He had to hold on tight on his side. He could not drag down the development of the lithography machine.
Ring!
Lin Yis phone rang. It was a call from Liang Ruoxu.
You still have the cheek to call me? Lin Yi said.
Huh? Why would I be embarra.s.sed to call you?
I was halfway through my pleasurable experience and you got me kicked out. I really admire you.
Have a conscience. Ever since the reopening, I havent interfered when you went there yourself, right?
Then why did you bother me yesterday?
Yanyan has learned some bad things from you. How dare you say that?
Whats wrong with that? Life only runs for a few decades. Dont you have to try everything? Its just a special ma.s.sage parlor and spa. Whats wrong with that?
Speak louder. Youre on loudspeaker. Uncle Chen happens to be beside me. Let him hear what youre doing with his daughter.
d.a.m.n, why are the two of you together?
The R&D center had the ribbon-cutting ceremony in the morning. After that, Uncle Chen and I came back together. Liang Ruoxu said, Are you free? Come over now. Uncle Chen wants to have a meal with you.
Okay, where are you guys?
At the office cafeteria.
Youre eating at the office cafeteria? Thats a little degrading. Lets go to my Peninsula Hotel.
Try your best to avoid any trouble and just come over quickly. Uncle Chen is waiting for you.
Sure.
Lin Yi wasnt interested in idle chit-chat, but he still had to meet Chen Yans father.
Turning the car around, Lin Yi drove to Liang Ruoxus unit and met Chen Shunjie in the canteen.
Chen Shunjies appearance was similar to what Lin Yi had expected. He had a medium build, wore gla.s.ses, and had short hair. He gave off a refres.h.i.+ng feeling.
You must be Lin Yi. Its been so long, and Im finally seeing you in person.
Seeing Lin Yi, Chen Shunjie extended his hand to greet him.
Director Chen, h.e.l.lo.
Director Chen, youre treating me like an outsider.
Thats not true. Lin Yi chuckled. Im just a businessman. I have to avoid any sudden accusations.
Haha
Chen Shunjie smiled. Kid, you know quite a lot. Dont worry, there are no outsiders here. If youre not afraid that Ill take advantage of you, just call me Uncle Chen like Little Mi does.
Then I wont stand on ceremony with you.
Come on, dont stand there. Lets eat first.
Okay.
The dining venue was in a single room in the canteen where the chef had set up a private kitchen.
Although the decor was not great, the taste was definitely good.
Why isnt Chen Yan here? Lin Yi asked after sitting down.
The R&D center just opened today, so they are scoping out nearby restaurants. Hence, they didnt join us, Liang Ruoxu said.
Lin Yi nodded and did not say anything else.
By the way, I have something for you this time.
With that, Chen Shunjie handed a brown paper doc.u.ment bag to Lin Yi.
Hmm? What is it?
Youll know when you see it.
Lin Yi opened the brown paper bag, revealing a red-covered ID.
Hm? Secretary-General of the Medical a.s.sociation?
Its a position. Chen Shunjie said.
Youve done so much for Huaxia. I dont have anything to thank you for, so I got you this. Although its just a position, its not just for show. It has real power, but you dont have to hold any position. Therefore, it wont waste your time.
Originally, Chen Shunjie wanted to make this matter public and further increase Lin Yis reputation.
However, because of Shen Shuyis advice, he gave up on this plan.
Looking at the ID in his hand, Lin Yi felt that Chen Shunjie was very sincere.
After all, this was a doc.u.ment with real power. It was not just for show.
Thank you, Uncle Chen.
Theres no need to be so polite. You deserve it. Compared to what youve done, my work is nothing, Chen Shunjie said.
By the way, your businesses are now focused on the Internet and the technology industry. Do you have any plans to develop physical products?
Does Uncle Chen want me to enter the pharmaceutical industry?
Chen Shunjie nodded noncommittally. Your ability is obvious to all. I can still help you from above. Its a good time to do it now since if you wait a few more years I might retire. By then, I dont know if the higher-ups will continue to support you.
Lin Yi was a little emotional. When people reached a certain level, even if they didnt want to earn money, someone would put money in their pockets.
As the saying goes, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
Hahaha let me think.
Lin Yis answer was within Liang Ruoxus expectations.
Lin Yi didnt value money that much. He wasnt like ordinary people.
Are you unwilling to do it? Chen Shunjie asked, but he was not angry.
I know Uncle Chen is doing this for my own good, but my timeline might not allow it, Lin Yi said.
I cant spend all my time on pharmaceutical research. If I leave it to others to manage, it will be difficult for me to grow it to become a world-cla.s.s company.
With that, Lin Yi paused. Secondly, the tallest tree attracts the wind. I still want to be free. Ill hand to torture myself with the photolithography machine for the time being.
Lin Yi is used to being lazy. If he were to sit in the office obediently, he would fall sick in less than two days, Liang Ruoxu tried to smooth things over.
Tsk tsk tsk, you know me best. Lin Yi said.
Although I dont am not looking to do this for the time being, Ill still help if you encounter any problems in the research and development of future medicine. Instead of establis.h.i.+ng a new company, itll be better to nurture multiple firms. Otherwise, it will involve new interests, which is obviously not a good thing.
Kid, youre still young, but youve seen through these things quite thoroughly. Chen Shunjie said.
In that case, I wont force you. But if you change your mind, you can call me anytime. If I can give you the green light, Ill sign it.
Thank you, Uncle Chen.
By the way, the R&D center is developing a blood clotting drug. I heard that theres been a breakthrough. Do you know anything about the situation here?
I knew about this the last time I went to the research and development center, Lin Yi said.
Ive already sorted out the general formula. Ill let the people below handle the experimental proofing stage.
You got it out so quickly?
This medicine is different from those that treat rare diseases. Theres a lot of information to refer to, so it doesnt take long.
Thats good. Chen Shunjie said.
The prices of these thrombus-solving drugs on the market are generally high, while the treatment effect is limited. We need a new drug to break the market stalemate.
Alright, after dinner, Lin Yi and I will go to the research and development center and settle this matter.
Lin Yi glanced at Liang Ruoxu. She immediately agreed on his behalf?
Youre quite the mediator.
