Chapter 124, a big thing

"I don't know which master's work it is, maybe it's still Qin Huai Bayan's use. Li Ya smiled, "This is what I found in the alley, the price is not expensive, it can be pretended to be strong and elegant, and it can also be used as an antique collection." ”

Mr. Liang said angrily: "When an antique collection is a tyrannical thing! Of course, such a good piano must be played by people with excellent piano skills to complement each other." ”

"People with high piano skills can't afford it. Li Ya said, "This is an antique, and the price is very expensive." If you look at the great sage's relics in the Palace Museum, who has the opportunity to play it? It's not just in the Forbidden City for people to see. ”

"You...... I'm so angry with the old man! Get out and get out!" Mr. Liang is very angry, even if you know that people can't afford it, you don't have to say it, isn't this a slap in the face?

"Okay, okay, then I'll go cook, you learn slowly. Li Ya said, "Pay attention to your body, don't study for too long." ”

Seeing that Li Ya went out, Mr. Liang said: "I can't see it, this kid can still cook?" Looking at his appearance, I thought he was a guy who came to stretch out his hand to eat and open his mouth. ”

Shu Yue said with a smile: "He has learned to cook from a few masters, but he is no worse than the chef of the restaurant, and he cooks at home." ”

When Li Ya called for dinner, Mr. Liang stopped explaining, and when he was eating, he said: "Shu Yue, you have a good memory, your brain turns quickly, so you can memorize fingering in this way, and you will be able to practice it soon." ”

Li Ya smiled: "She is a top student who graduated from the University of Toronto, and learning the piano is a very simple thing for her." ”

"I studied piano for a while when I was a kid. Shu Yue said with a smile.

After lunch, Li Ya was fine, and he also studied in the study. Another week later, Li Ya was ready to leave for the United States to attend Microsoft's listing ceremony.

Originally, Gates arranged for Li Ya to represent the company with the two of them, after all, Li Ya is also a shareholder of Microsoft. However, Li Ya refused Gates's arrangement, stood in the crowd in a low-key manner, and could be a witness. Li Ya doesn't like to stand in the spotlight, it's best to keep a low profile and make a fortune in a muffled voice.

On March 13, Microsoft was officially listed, with 7.6 million shares issued at $15 per share, which were sold out on the day of listing, and the stock price closed at $34. Based on the closing price, Li Ya's 10% equity is worth $68 million, a seventeen times return on investment, which is simply a money grab. That's not all, the stock price will soar in the future.

Li Ya calculated in his heart that the stocks in Gates' hands were worth $270 million, and he would become one of the richest people in the United States at once!

After resting in the hotel for a night, after Li Ya got up the next day, he went shopping, planning to buy some gifts to take home.

I bought a few pieces of jewelry at the jewelry store, and then went to the supermarket to buy toys, and finally came to buy a toy for my brother-in-law's son.

Entering the supermarket, Li Ya found the toy area, picked them up one by one, and suddenly Li Ya saw a line of English: Made i

Chi

a。 Rummaged through the toy area, many of them are produced in China, Li Ya smiled heartily, made in China, now it is just imitation toys These low-end things are exported, and the variety is small and the quantity is small, and gradually there will be more and more, and finally the United States is made in China everywhere, and the cost of living will increase significantly without China's manufacturing, and the quality may not be better.

Li Ya chose two American-made toys, and then walked around the supermarket, deliberately flipped through the trademark, and saw that many goods were made in China.

There are more and more goods made in China, and there will be more in the future, and the more goods exported, the more foreign exchange will be earned, and the better the domestic development will be.

After leaving the supermarket, Li Ya bought a newspaper and brought it back to the hotel.

Putting down the things, Li Ya picked up the newspaper and looked at it. Although Li Ya's spoken English is very poor, it is still okay to read the newspaper.

After turning two pages, Li Ya saw a report about the hepatitis B vaccine.

Li Ya remembered that he himself had been vaccinated against hepatitis B when he was a child, and now that the child was about to be born, the vaccine was a must.

In his previous life, a friend of Li Ya was a carrier of hepatitis B virus, and Li Ya also learned a lot about hepatitis B virus, hepatitis B virus is the second most common disease causing death in China, after the introduction of hepatitis B vaccine technology, a large number of hepatitis B vaccines are produced in China, and 20 million newborns born every year can be vaccinated in time to avoid the torture of hepatitis B virus. So, Li Ya looked carefully.

The newspaper reported that Merck was developing recombinant DNA technology, which was an advertisement for Merck. The article explains the harm and infectiousness of the hepatitis B virus, reviews the beginning and end of the blood-borne hepatitis B vaccine turmoil, and carefully writes about the recombinant hepatitis B vaccine technology now developed by Merck, which avoids the risk of blood-borne hepatitis B vaccine and overcomes the constraints that blood-borne hepatitis B vaccine is difficult to produce on a large scale.

In early 1980, when Merck announced that it had produced the first hepatitis B vaccine, AIDS quietly hit the United States. At that time, no one knew about the new disease, but doctors and patients soon began to suspect blood-borne vaccines, and the hepatitis B vaccine bore the brunt.

Merck's hepatitis B vaccine was taken from people with chronic hepatitis B, many of whom were homosexuals or intravenous drug users, two high-risk groups for HIV in the United States, when AIDS was almost equivalent to death.

AIDS, also known as acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, is a disease transmitted through bodily fluids, and even after 30 years, there is still no drug for treatment and prevention. AIDS first appeared in Africa, and last year it also appeared in my country.

Now that Merck's research on recombinant hepatitis B vaccine technology is nearing completion, Merck's interview is also advertising the launch of the vaccine.

Now that there is a new hepatitis B vaccine technology that is safer and can be produced on a large scale, it should be produced and used in China as soon as possible, so that people will no longer be bothered by the hepatitis B virus sooner.

Li Ya called the embassy and told them about Mock's recombinant vaccine technology, but they knew a lot, "What kind of recombinant DNA vaccine technology did you say Merck? I know this, in '84, the Ministry of Health sent a delegation over, and Merck showed them this technology, and the members of the delegation attached great importance to this technology and discussed it many times. ”

"Now that you know, I don't need to explain. Li Ya said directly, "I read the newspaper just now, and Merck's research is nearing completion, and it seems that it will be able to produce it soon." I believe that the state should pay attention to such technology and introduce it immediately. ”

"Of course, the state attaches great importance to it and has also carried out relevant research. However, as you know, the domestic scientific research environment is backward, and it is not possible to develop this technology in a short period of time. ”

"I know that the domestic equipment is backward, there is not so much money to invest in research, and the technical level of researchers is not as high as that of foreign countries. Li Ya said, "That's why I said that it was introduced from Merck." ”

"Is Merck willing to bring it in? This is the United States, this technology is a hen that lays golden eggs, will they be willing to give it up?" said the staff member, "Besides, even if it is transferred, how much will it cost? That's not one or two million, it may be one or two million or even more!"

"I know that although this is a hen that lays golden eggs, due to the influence of blood-borne hepatitis B vaccine, it may not be able to open sales quickly after it is launched, and if we introduce technology at this time, we can help them open sales faster. Li Ya said, "Besides, the level of economic development in our country is there, if they don't sell vaccines instead of technology, then the people in our country can't afford the price of vaccines, and they can't make money in our country." Moreover, isn't China researching this technology? Aren't they afraid that we will research it ourselves, and they won't even be able to make money selling the technology?"

"Mr. Li, your idea is not bad! But since it is already being studied in China, why spend money to introduce it?"

"Don't call me sir, call me comrade kind. Li Ya corrected the title and continued, "Now the hepatitis B infection in China is very serious, and one in ten people is a carrier of the hepatitis B virus. For the sake of the hundreds of millions of hepatitis B virus carriers in China, and for the sake of the people who will no longer be troubled and tormented by hepatitis B in the future, it is our unshirkable responsibility to produce the hepatitis B vaccine as soon as possible. You know, we can't afford to wait, and every day of delay there will be another batch of infected people. Therefore, I would like to ask you to inform the country that if you want to introduce this technology, you can say it if you need my help. Of course, I can't help with the rest, but if I need money, I can help. ”

"You're right, in this matter, we can't just settle economic accounts, but put people's lives and safety first. We will notify the country immediately and contact you as soon as possible. Please let me know your contact details for easy contact. ”

Li Ya said: "I'm in New York now, but I won't stay long, if the delegation can't come within three or four days, then I will have to return to China tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." If you want to find me, you can call Shanghai, Shanshui Group or Oriental Development Bank, the phone number is: XXXXXX; ”

"Okay, we'll get back to you as soon as we need to. Anything else?"

"No more. Good bye. ”

The ambassador put down the phone and instructed: "You should contact China immediately to see if China wants to introduce Merck's recombinant hepatitis B vaccine technology, this is a good opportunity!"

"Ambassador, do you really believe such a brainless phone call?"

The ambassador smiled: "Why don't you believe it? Do you know who he is? The Eastern Development Bank has heard of it? That's his." Also, as far as I know, he has donated a large amount of money every year over the years for the Three-North Shelterbelt Project and education. ”
