Chapter 39 I Won't Let Him Do This
In the office, unlike the warmth a few minutes ago, the atmosphere is particularly dignified.
The Director of R&D Department took the lead in speaking:
"I have never heard of Gu's plan to develop new anti-cancer drugs. Although Gu has invested in many companies, his technology is weak in research and development. This is the main reason why we can quickly invade the market in just one year. But Gu Since Shi dared to make this statement publicly, it means that they must have something in their hands."
"Although both of us are developing anti-cancer drugs, which is a coincidence, self-developed anti-cancer drugs are a difficult and hot spot in China. If successful, it will be equivalent to becoming one of the top domestic pharmaceutical companies. We cannot deny that Gu's may have Ambitious in that regard."
"From patent application to review, this time can be delayed for one year or even two years. During this period, the market will be optimistic about Gu's. Even if the drug patent is not successfully reviewed in the end, two years is enough for Gu's to fight. A comeback."
The director of the marketing department said: "But I think Gu Jiakang probably doesn't have this ability. If he had this ability, he wouldn't be squeezed like this by us."
"The harder you are squeezed, the stronger the rebound will be. Now many customers who were willing to cooperate have entered a wait-and-see state. I hope we can take corresponding measures. We can't wait for the results of Gu's application to deal with it."
"..."
Sheng Songbai: "Do we have a product that can compete with Gu's new drug?"
Director of R&D Department: "The self-developed anti-cancer drug is unique in terms of the drug itself and the value of the drug. We do not have similar drugs, but we have an anti-hyperglycemic drug that has passed clinical trials. According to evaluation, the market The value is high and can strengthen market and shareholder confidence in the company."
Propaganda Department: "A sudden statement may also trigger negative public opinion..."
"If we don't take action now, it will only make people think that we are afraid of the Gu family..."
"but--"
Shen Boyan stretched out his hand, and everyone's voices suddenly stopped.
He looked at the crowd below and said succinctly:
"In the face of emergencies, we must have the ability to respond quickly. This is the purpose of our Wenhui when it was founded. Let's take action, Manager Wu, you submit the relevant instructions on anti-hyperglycemic drugs to the Propaganda Department, Manager Xu, Immediately organize a publicity plan, and I will see the proposal at the morning meeting next Monday.”
"Songbai, please stay after the meeting."
Everyone started to act according to his order, and Sheng Songbai stayed behind. After everyone left, Shen Boyan spoke again:
"I'm sorry that this kind of thing happened before you left. Your vacation is probably going to be ruined."
Sheng Song smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm used to it."
"However, South Africa is an independent business unit, which will not affect you. It's just that your handover should be slower, and we will win this battle first."
Sheng Songbai looked at him gently as always, and replied:
"it is good."
Shen Boyan talked with Sheng Songbai for nearly 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, Sheng Songbai walked out of the office with a calm and gentle expression on his face. It was not until he returned to his office that his expression suddenly changed.
His brain kept reminiscing about Shen Boyan's pale face, which could not hide the exhausted expression, and he felt distorted pleasure from his heart.The pleasure healed his wounds and made him feel good all over his body.
He tasted it quietly in the office, and after a while, he dialed an unfamiliar phone number:
"Hey, what are you going to do next?"
"..." "Here will come up with a new drug to challenge you. This drug has detailed clinical data and is more reliable to the public. You have already created momentum. If you are still suppressed In the past, tsk, I can't stand it anymore."
"...Okay, you can figure it out, hang up."
With a beep, the phone was hung up.
In an office full of classical art, Gu Jiakang looked at the phone that was unilaterally cut off with a gloomy face.
"This Sheng Songbai is getting more and more arrogant, but he is just a wild dog who betrayed his master..."
"Dad." Gu Er leaned closer and said:
"Our materials have already been submitted, and they told us to wait, how long do we have to wait?"
"Wait, what are you waiting for?! Now go and ask your Uncle Yang to walk us down the fast lane. Forget it, I'll call myself!"
......
......
On the next Monday, Xia Shuan went to work and found that the laboratory was also discussing Gu's latest statement.
"Since Gu Jiakang came to power, he hasn't made any good moves. Instead, many things have happened. I really can't believe that he will devote his energy to research and development of new drugs." This is their senior who loves to know the world.
"That's right. Originally, the Gu family was in decline. When Wen Hui came, he swallowed up a lot of its territory with a strong aura. If it had this ability, why didn't it take it out sooner, and wait until it is about to be swallowed by Wen Hui?" Take it out when you're done."
"Maybe this is their trump card? The old pharmaceutical factory has been meticulously researching and developing it for many years, and it has become a blockbuster, so they are not worried about Wenhui's strength..."
"Is it really okay? Don't be ashamed of being unsuccessful in clinical practice...Xiao Xia, what do you think?"
"Me?" Xia Shu'an thought for a while, and said, "If a domestic anticancer drug can be developed, that would be a good thing, and I have a positive attitude towards it."
Several people in the laboratory generally maintained the same attitude as the Internet discussion, with mixed feelings of expectation and fear of disappointment.On the one hand, they also expect a high-efficiency and low price to help cancer patients. On the other hand, they are also uncertain about the independent research and development capabilities of domestic drugs, especially Gu's R&D capabilities.
But in short, the news of Gu's has indeed triggered a huge social discussion.In other words, if the Gu family can successfully apply for a patent, it will be able to raise the reputation of the Gu family in the country and even the world in one fell swoop, and if it fails, it will fall into the abyss.
It's really a matter of success or failure.
After a brief discussion in the morning, everyone returned to their posts.Xia Shu'an let out a long breath, letting herself out of the discussion just now.
He was going to the seedling base today, and as soon as he stood up, Chang Jun stepped forward and said:
"Shu An, can I go out with you today?"
Xia Shu'an was slightly taken aback, and said, "Yes."
"Okay, then wait for me and I'll pack up my things."
Chang Jun turned around and returned to his seat. Seeing his tired face, Xia Shu'an couldn't help asking in surprise, "What's wrong, senior?"
The senior sister turned around secretly: "I seem to be having trouble with my girlfriend. Once I saw his girlfriend come to the test field to block him. He probably doesn't want to see her, so find a clean place to hide."
"Did they break up?" Xia Shu'an asked in surprise, "Have we been talking for half a year?"
"No."
"Hey, in fact, Lin Yue's family conditions are very good, and she can be regarded as a young lady, and she is also Chang Jun who the young lady actively pursues."
The senior sister lowered her voice and said, "But if your personalities don't match, there's nothing you can do." "Yes." Xia Shu'an smiled:
"It's really impossible."
As for emotional matters, if you have to force it...
forget it. I'm done here.
The fist is hard again.
Xia Shu'an and Chang Jun went to the seedling base. The base started construction in October and planted seedlings in early November.They transplant the seedlings directly, which saves the time of cultivating seedlings from seeds. In winter, most of the seedlings enter the dormant period and grow slowly.Before the seedlings grow, what they have to do is to trim off the sick and dead seedlings, clean up the weeds and fallen leaves in the field, pay attention to the control of diseases and insect pests and winter protection.
Both of them were very patient with their work. It was already evening when it was over, and it was getting dark quickly in winter. They didn't continue to work, and they made an appointment to come back tomorrow and then went back.
When she got home, Xia Shu'an accidentally saw Shen Boyan in the lit living room.He stepped into the door of the house, bent over to change his shoes:
"Why did you come back so early today?"
"After visiting the client in the afternoon, I came back directly."
"Why did it get so dirty?" The man stepped forward and wiped the young man's cheeks with his soft woven cuff. Xia Shu'an subconsciously swayed his body, slowly stood still, and looked at Shen Boyan with open eyes without moving.
It wasn't until the man put down his hand that he said, "I went to the field this afternoon."
"Well, let's take a shower."
Xia Shu'an took a few steps obediently, then paused suddenly, then turned around and said, "Are you free the night after tomorrow?"
"The day after tomorrow? There should be a dinner, what's the matter?"
"No, my parents told me to go home for dinner. If you don't come, I will go by myself."
"Go." Shen Boyan said with a gentle face, "I'm sorry to my parents for me, and I'll make it up next time."
"Ah."
Xia Shu'an went upstairs, and slowly took off her clothes when she entered the room, only wearing a camel cashmere sweater and trousers next to her body.There was a little mud on his trousers, and he wore a pair of light gray cotton mops on his feet. When he walked around, his white insteps were exposed between the bottom of his trousers and the gap between his shoes.It doesn't feel sloppy, and even feels extra soft.
Shen Boyan is busy with work, even the clothes for the next day are placed in a fixed place by his aunt in advance, and he has no idea what is put in various places in the house.Xia Shu'an didn't even need to deliberately hide it, he directly opened the bottom drawer of the wardrobe and took out a black box inside.
"..."
He stroked the outside of the box twice with his fingers, and put it back again.
Forget it, just make up your mind.
Shen Boyan still leaves early and returns late, wishing he could have 48 hours a day.After lunch and a brief rest, he called Assistant Lin in and asked him about his upcoming itinerary.
"You have an appointment with the deputy director of the Food and Drug Administration in the afternoon, and a dinner with President Lin of the Chamber of Commerce and Director Zhang of the Industry and Commerce Bureau in the evening."
"Ah."
Shen Boyan kept his head down to deal with the work, and didn't notice that the assistant in front of him paused, and then spoke again after a few seconds:
"You may have forgotten that I am the only one to accompany you to the dinner tonight. Assistant Qi has already said hello in advance, and I will leave work on time today."
For some important dinners, for the sake of convenience, sometimes Shen Boyan would bring both chief assistants with him.
Shen Boyan raised his head. For someone like Assistant Qi, getting off work on time is equivalent to asking for leave, and at such a critical juncture, he couldn't help asking: "Is Assistant Qi okay?"
Assistant Lin didn't answer directly, but said vaguely, "Today is Christmas."
"so--"
Shen Boyan just asked these two words, and suddenly realized the next moment.
He had a strange look on his face: "Today is Christmas?"
Without waiting for the assistant to answer, he glanced at the bottom of the computer. Today is indeed Christmas.
Because the floor of the building had been decorated a month earlier, and they spent Christmas and New Year's Day together, every day was full of fancy, Shen Boyan didn't notice the difference at all, and only realized it when he was reminded.
Xia Shu'an's question from the previous two nights came to mind, and he murmured:
"At Christmas, do you have dinner with important people?"
Assistant Lin replied sternly: "There is no clear rule, but generally speaking, yes."
"...Okay, I see, let Assistant Qi rest at ease."
After Assistant Lin left, Shen Boyan sat back in his seat. He turned on the phone, and the phone lit up. The screen was very simple, and the work and social software were clearly separated.He tapped on the table with his fingertips, but for a moment he didn't know what to do.
Shen Boyan spent a rare five or six minutes in a daze. After a while, he shook his head and was ready to return to work.
Someone knocked on the door: "Mr. Shen, there is your package."
Shen Boyan took the courier, and for a moment he couldn't remember any impression that he had sent something to him recently. He quickly unwrapped the outermost layer of wrapping paper, and his speed slowed down after opening the outer layer of packaging.
It was an exquisite packaging box, with a simple ribbon tied on the outside of the box, and a simple and beautiful bow tied, declaring its existence as a gift.
The man seemed to have thought of something, his mood suddenly jumped a little, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his lips.The bow is easily untied and there is no attempt to remain mysterious.The moment he opened the box, he saw a sky blue keychain lying quietly on the black flannelette.
The key fob Shen Boyan used to put the car keys in was broken, but because it was too private and needed to be used frequently, and because he was busy during this time, he forgot to ask his assistant to get a new one.Once Xia Shu'an saw that she had asked a question, so she mentioned it once.
Shen Boyan rubbed the smooth metal keychain with his fingertips, picked up the pure white card on the side, and opened it to see a line of handsome and neat words.
"Come on!" A classic expression of a villain clenching his fist was drawn next to it.
A chuckle escaped from the man's throat.
"So cute."
......
......
As a top domestic pharmaceutical company, Shen Boyan and the leaders of the Food and Drug Administration are old acquaintances. Wen Hui is now one of Rongchuan's important sources of income, and the leaders are naturally very enthusiastic about him.
"Mr. Shen, the market feedback of Wenhui's previous drugs has been very good."
Shen Boyan smiled politely and distantly: "We are businessmen in our duty. Medicines are related to people's livelihood. We have always tried our best to achieve as much as we can. If we can't achieve it at this stage, we will Try to expand the R&D team to overcome it."
The deputy director sighed: "It would be great if there were more companies like yours in the country."
Faced with such compliments, Shen Boyan just smiled and said nothing, the two circled around a long way, the topic stretched far, and it took a while to get to the point:
"I have received the new drug marketing application, and we will review it as soon as possible. Don't worry."
At present, the approval process for new drug listing in various countries is relatively cumbersome and takes a long time.According to the domestic process, from submission of application to approval, it will take half a year at the fastest, basically one year or more. Although the country has been trying to speed up the review process of innovative drugs for the past two years, once there is a special opening, Whether you can get into this hole to get convenience depends entirely on the ability of each family.
This kind of thing can't be explained clearly in one or two sentences. Shen Boyan's relationship with him is not so far, so he didn't make things difficult for him.
As soon as he walked out of the office, he bumped into Gu Jiakang who was walking in the corridor, Gu Jiakang quickly glanced at the office where he came out, with a false smile on his face, he stepped forward and said: "President Shen, what a coincidence. "
No matter how rebellious Ren Shen Boyan was, he always displayed the image of a prudent and shrewd businessman outside, but today he changed from his usual easy-going attitude and looked gloomy towards Gu Jiakang.
He took half a step forward, his shoulder brushed against Gu Jiakang's body:
"Mr. Gu, don't be too complacent, it's not certain who will win."
This situation and this situation are just like the situation in the club that day was reversed. Gu Jiakang was ridiculed mercilessly by him, but he didn't get angry, instead he was very happy.He smiled and said:
"Mr. Shen, what does this mean? We are doing business in a serious manner. We are competitors in the market, and we can become friends of gentlemen in private. Don't be so hostile, Mr. Shen, young man, relax."
"Hmph." Shen Boyan snorted coldly, his eyes still as sharp as a blade:
"Don't think I don't know where your prescription came from, don't let me catch the evidence."
"Then I'll wait and see."
Gu Jiakang watched Shen Boyan leave with a smile, and turned and walked towards the direction Shen Boyan came out after seeing him walk out of the gate.He knocked on the door and quickly pushed it open:
"Leaf Bureau!"
"What is it called Ye Ju? We have known each other for many years. Old Gu, sit down."
Gu Jiakang sat down obediently. He glanced at the teacup that had not been removed from the table, and said:
"Ye Ju, Shen Boyan is here..."
Ye Ju gave him a meaningful look: "Old Gu, Mr. Shen is a man of action. Every time he comes here, he can produce something. There is no new drug to apply for marketing. You have to learn from him. What should you do?" Hurry up and don’t be squeezed out by others.”
"I understand, I understand." Gu Jiakang said again and again:
"I'll get things done right now, thank you Ju Ye for teaching..."
......
Shen Boyan's car was parked in a public parking lot not far from the Food and Drug Administration. Assistant Lin put down his phone and said:
"Ye Bureau has told someone to suppress our application first."
"It's not surprising that he was promoted by Gu Jiakang." Shen Boyan looked at the cold white ground outside the window, his fingers suddenly itched, rubbed his middle finger and index finger, and put his hand down again.
"I've done everything I need to do. The next step is to see how hard he works and how quickly he accepts the documents."
The sapphire Maybach was silent for a second, and Assistant Lin said, "Mr. Shen, where are we going next?"
"It's almost time, let's go to the place for dinner."
"Yes."
......
......
At a quarter past nine, the TV series played as the background sound also started to play the ending song. Xia Shu'an was wearing an off-white down jacket and was carrying a bag to go out.
"Be careful on the road, drive slowly."
Xia's father and Xia's mother asked.
"Is New Year's Day still coming?"
"Come." Xia Shu'an pulled out the scarf, but she didn't put it on, so she held it in her hand.
Xia's mother showed concern: "If Xiao Shen is still busy, don't ask him to come over, and there is no rush for a day or two."
"Okay." Xia Shu'an said obediently, "I will definitely not make things difficult for him."
"If Xiao Shen is busy, take care of yourself. If you feel unwell, call a doctor. Does your aunt take good care of you?"
After asking this question many times today, Xia Shuan couldn't help laughing, and said helplessly:
"Okay, everything is fine, treat me as the master."
"That's good......"
Xia Shu'an was sticky, and stood at the door for a few more minutes before walking out.
Under the warm white light of the lamp in front of the courtyard, he waved to the elder at the door: "No need to send it off, I'm leaving."
"Okay, okay, ah!"
Xia Shu'an was wondering what this "ah" meant. When she turned her head, she realized that there was an extra car parked in the yard at some point. The sapphire-toned Maybach looked low-key and elegant in the quiet night, as if it was walking down the road. The owner of the car is average.
Xia Shu'an stared blankly at the man approaching, her mind was a little confused.
"Why did you come here?"
"Come to pick you up." Shen Boyan stopped beside Xia Shu'an naturally, and waved to the second elder at the door.
"Uncle, auntie."
"Xiao Shen is here, why don't you come in."
"As soon as I arrived, I saw Xiao Shu coming out."
"Okay, okay." Mother Xia looked at Xia Shu'an: "Since Xiao Shen has come to pick you up, you can go with him in the car."
"Oh."
Xia Shuan followed Shen Boyan to the side of the Maybach, Shen Boyan took the bag from his hand, Xia Shuan sat in first, and after a while, Shen Boyan sat next to him.Xia Shu'an could smell the faint smell of alcohol on his body, it wasn't very strong, it seemed that he had already taken a bath.
"Why did you come here?"
"I said I'll pick you up."
"Aren't you busy?"
"Busy." Shen Boyan turned to look at him, with a slight smile on his face, Xia Shu'an always felt that his smile was bad.
"No matter how busy I am, I will come to pick you up."
"..." Xia Shu'an stopped talking.
The car drove the two of them steadily towards a familiar direction. There was very little traffic on the road in the middle of the night, the road was unimpeded, the stable frequency, and the confined space with only a shallow dome light left one could not help falling into the night .
Xia Shu'an was drowsy, but there was one thing on his mind that made him unable to sleep peacefully. After thinking for a long time, he finally decided to speak it out.
"Shen Boyan—"
"Ok?"
"Shen Boyan..." Xia Shu'an's jade-like voice was exceptionally clear in the car: "What do you think of Sheng Songbai?"
Shen Boyan closed his resting eyes and opened them.
"Why do you ask that?"
"It's him. I think he looks at me strangely." Xia Shu'an apologized to him, although it was not a lie.
"Does he dislike me?"
Shen Boyan stretched out his hand, and scratched his left cheek with unidentified fingers.
"You think too much, he doesn't dislike you - and, even if he doesn't like you, it doesn't matter."
The light was too dim, Xia Shu'an couldn't see his eyes clearly, he just whispered based on his own moral bottom line:
"I'm just worried, if he doesn't like me, will it affect your work."
In the darkness, the man chuckled.
"No." He said softly:
"I won't let him do that."
