On the main campus of the University of Copenhagen, above the ancient school gate, an eagle with its wings spread is carved.

Underneath the eagle is the Latin motto, which translates into English as "It beholds the celestial light".

In Chinese, it is "as far as the eye can see, the sky is wonderful"!

The meaning is that only by being ambitious, fearless of hardships and dangers, and faint in the cave, can we get close to the truth.

Frederick and Wang Ye walked across the campus to Professor Andrew's lab.

It is an old man with gray hair and a large beard, wearing a researcher's signature white coat.

Seeing Frederick and Wang Ye arrive, Professor Andrew warmly welcomed them into the office.

"Young man, I don't know what you want me to ask. Professor Andrew had a straightforward personality and asked directly without too many pleasantries.

Wang Ye took out the small silver box again, and said with a smile: "This is what I saw from Isabella, this thing seems to have a good effect on scar removal, this time, I just want to ask for the formula of this thing." ”

Andro glanced at the small box and laughed: "Are you making medicines? ”

"No, I am a cosmetics business, and I belong to the home chemical industry. Wang Ye told him the truth.

When he came this time, he didn't plan to play any tricks, because he was facing a professor at the University of Copenhagen who had a certain influence in the world biology community.

If you really get the formula by less glorious means, and then it is passed on, it will be a stain on Wang Ye for the rest of his life, and how will he go international in the future.

Therefore, he was honest and honest, did not hide anything, and was ready to make the acquisition openly, as long as the formula was valuable, even if he paid more money, he would admit it.

Of course, this does not mean that he has to be a wronged boss and let others slaughter him, if Andrew's asking price is too outrageous, then it is better to break up in two. Anything, there is a reasonable value, there is no truly priceless thing.

"Oh, cosmetics, it seems like it can be ......," Andrew muttered.

He continued, "So you're trying to find out how to extract this thing?"

"Yes, my cosmetics company needs this technology. If the professor is willing to transfer, I will pay accordingly. Wang Ye said calmly.

"Haha, I can give you this extraction method for free, after all, you're Isabella's friend. Professor Andrew said with a smile.

Wang Ye was taken aback, how could he send it for free, is Isabella's face so useful?

He said: "This is not suitable, the professor must have spent a lot of thought to develop this technology, and a reasonable remuneration should still be deserved." ”

"No, no, young man, you'll understand when you hear me. Andrew shook his head with a smile and then told the origin of the thing.

It turned out that this box of things was accidentally extracted when he was studying the deep-sea seaweed in the Baltic Sea.

This thing is very effective in repairing skin damage, and when he first found out, Andrew was also very excited. He is an expert in pharmaceutical research and development, and he knows the value of this quick scar removal drug.

Yes, he always thought that this thing was the most suitable for developing into drugs.

Andrew is also well-connected in the pharmaceutical industry, and he quickly contacted a well-connected pharmaceutical company and recommended the product to them.

The pharmaceutical company was also very interested at the beginning, and sent a team of experts to come and inspect the product. After a series of verifications, they were disappointed to tell Andrew that the discovery was of little practical value.

Because this extract can only be a specific species of deep-sea seaweed, and that kind of seaweed, the yield is not large, and it can only grow on the deep seabed, which is difficult to cultivate.

This means that extraction costs are extremely high and production is extremely limited, making them unsuitable for use as medicines.

Because there are many kinds of drugs on the market that can remove scars, even if the effect is a little weaker than this and the recovery is a little slower, but the cost of those drugs is low.

Just like the average person who has been injured and left with a scar, if there are two medicines for him to choose from.

It takes a month for a drug to recover, and the price is only a few hundred or even tens of yuan. Another medicine only takes a week to remove scars, but the price is tens of thousands of dollars, and it is difficult to buy.

Normal people would not choose the second option.

Moreover, if a pharmaceutical company wants to launch the drug, it will need to go through a series of complex, expensive and time-consuming trials. After the launch of this product, it was limited to production and did not bring enough returns to the company.

In this case, what pharmaceutical company is willing to do such a thing?

Professor Andrew was disappointed and gave up the idea of developing this thing as a medicine. Later, Isabella used it as a skincare product, which gave him another inspiration.

He tried to recommend it to a cosmetics company, and of course, this time Andrew explained in advance that the production of this thing was limited and the extraction cost was high.

As he expected, the cosmetics company directly refused, and did not even send someone to investigate. In the reply, he also seriously suggested that Professor Andrew learn about the development of the cosmetics industry. Because, the application of seaweed refining in cosmetics has long been nothing new.

First of all, this scar removal function is not the core element of cosmetics, and may only be used in some cosmeceuticals.

In addition, the application of seaweed extract has long been widely used in the cosmetics industry. High, medium and low-end cosmetics have a lot of seaweed extracts.

The most famous, of course, is the cream of La Mer, which is known as the "King of Creams"!

La Mer Mystery Cream, known as a miracle in the cosmetics world. The cream is made from fresh seaweed harvested from the unpolluted deep waters of the South Pacific Ocean in California, along with other natural ingredients.

A special bio-enzyme with a "sonar" that mimics the natural environment of the seabed and a specific frequency of flashing light ferments the active seaweed, and after 3 to 4 months, the core ingredient of LA MER is brewed, "Miracle Active Extract", which contains a variety of vitamins, minerals and marine extracts.

And this core product of La Mer actually has the effect of removing scars!

……

In Andrew's view, this unexpected discovery is indeed a chicken rib and has no practical value.

Now that Wang Ye wants it, he directly said that he gave it to him, but in fact, there is no technical content. It was to tell Wang Ye that this seaweed grows on the seabed near a deserted island about 50 nautical miles from Zealand.

That deserted island is called "Goddess Island", the area is not large, only about nine square kilometers, and it is deserted.

Oddly enough, this seaweed is only found on the seabed there, and Andrew has not found it anywhere else.

Moreover, the extraction technology is not complicated, it is a universal plant essence extraction method, which any biology graduate student knows.

"Haha, I'm disappointed, young man. Professor Andrew also laughed and joked with Wang Ye.

To be honest, Wang Ye is indeed a little disappointed, there is no problem with the high cost, but the output is so small, and it cannot be artificially cultivated, which is a headache.

Sure enough, there will be no pie in the sky.

Bidding farewell to Professor Andrew, Wang Ye returned to the palace with Frederick.

He thought about the whole process carefully, and always felt that something was wrong.

After looking at the time, Wang Ye directly dialed Mu Shiting's phone.

"Ah, Wang Dong, are you in Denmark, how is the formula matter?" Mu Shiting was also very concerned about the progress of Wang Ye's formula acquisition.

"I've met with the professor today, but it's not what we expected. Wang Ye smiled bitterly and told about the meeting with Andrew today.

After listening, Mu Shiting was also silent for a while, and she was also disappointed. I thought I had found a secret recipe to create top-notch cosmetics, but it turned out that this thing was too limited.

"Hey, how much better is this thing compared to the cream of La Mer?" Wang Ye asked suddenly.

After Mu Shiting tried it out, she also mentioned La Mer, because this thing is very similar to the King of Cream in La Mer.

The brand they originally planned to launch was to benchmark the mystery of La Mer.

"Hmm...... I used it myself, and it felt like it would work faster than La Mer. But this thing you sent over also has a high content of seaweed extract. In La Mer Cream, the content of deep-sea seaweed extract does not exceed 5%. Therefore, the effect at the same content cannot be compared. ”

Mu Shiting hesitated for a moment, but still gave her own judgment: "Judging from my experience, if the same seaweed extract content, the effect of this thing will definitely be better than La Mer Mystery Cream, but it will not be much better." If you want to have a much better effect than the mystery of La Mer, you must increase the content of seaweed extract. And this means that the cost is greatly increased!"

Obviously, after learning about the cost of raw material mining, Mu Shiting is not optimistic about this product.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Ye was a little uneasy, could it be that he came to Denmark this time, so he came in a hurry and returned dejected.

At dinner, it was still Wang Ye, Isabella, Frederick and the princess.

Frederick smiled and said to Isabella: "Your grandmother called today and asked how you are doing, she hasn't seen you for a long time, and she misses you very much." To your cousins, you don't need to mention it, it seems that my mother is really the most spoiled Isabella, haha......"

The princess also smiled and said, "Yes, Mom and Dad have always been the most fond of Isabella." ”

Wang Ye also interjected with a smile: "There is a saying in China, the emperor loves the eldest son, and the people love the eldest son, it seems that Denmark and China are different." ”

"No, it's only because it's scarce that it's precious. You must know that Isabella is the only princess of the Danish royal family in the past 30 years, can she not be loved by her grandparents? The princess explained with a smile.

Wang Ye's heart is moved, because of the scarcity, it is precious, right!
