Seeing that a high school girl suddenly broke in, Tom couldn't react for a while, and asked directly, "Who are you?" ”

Behind him, Evan Deloff coughed lightly, "Mr. Will, this girl is the investor in this lab, Miss Alice Wang. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

If there is any voice that Tom can hear in his ears the most in the past few months, this one that starts with A and ends with W is definitely the most thunderous. As soon as he was stunned, he immediately exclaimed: "My God, you are Miss Wang?" ”

Alice stood in front of the elevator with her arms crossed and said, "You just said to the front desk that a little girl named Ida told you that we are going to conduct a new drug experiment?" ”

Tom knew that he had gotten this opportunity through the back door. Although this is not the kind of job search after all, he can't help but feel a strong sense of discomfort when he is stared at by the top boss at this time.

"Yes, yes, I'm, I'm in a grocery store. Ida is a regular visitor to our neighborhood and is an acquaintance......"

"Relax, uh, Mr. Will, take it easy, sit first, sit first." Alice could see the nature of the other party at a glance. The smell of soap and the obvious new clothes, because of the nervous and tense body and timid expression, there is a chance that he is a little otaku, right?

After the three of them sat down together, Alice said: "First of all, my name is Alice Wang, an American investor. As for the question you heard from Ida about the new drug experiment, it's because I'm preparing to set up a pharmaceutical company, and the product was already available before the company was founded, as you can see. ”

Tom nodded, and then Alice continued, "Ada's behavior is not a secret, and your early arrival is also very welcome, please rest assured Mr. Will." The only problem is that since you were called by the girl in advance, we are really not ready on all levels, and even the company is not yet registered. So, if you're planning to test it right now...... I mean, we can make appointments. ”

Alice's meaning is simple. If a pharmaceutical company wants to produce a new drug, it must of course go through many rounds of drug testing, and these are all projects that cannot be officially started until the registered company has obtained a series of licenses. But now the company has not yet been established, the laboratory has not been completely completed, and although the initial medicines are available, Tom as a volunteer has no guarantees.

That is, it is really no different from the guinea pig under the knife of a secret scientist, if you succeed, you are lucky, and if you fail, you are unlucky. Especially Tom is still a volunteer now, and Alice has also told him all about the situation, if there is a problem with the drug test, let alone the company's claim, even if he follows the process of a criminal case, it is a question of whether he can sue the other party.

"Uh...... All right. Tom was indeed a little frightened: "Excuse me, I seem to have a question I forgot to ask, what new drug are you going to test?" ”

Hearing this, Alice couldn't help but rub her temples, and Evan Delove was also smiling quietly on the side.

"Hmm...... So Mr. Will, you really didn't know anything, and then you were thrown over by a sentence from the girl next door? ”

Alice has the urge to beat someone up, but not to the energetic little Ada, but to this Tom Weir's parents. What kind of weird son raised by strange parents, a ten-year-old girl can flicker away with a word, how did he grow up safely?

Tom also felt that he couldn't take it off, scratched the back of his head, and smiled: "My wife called me here." ”

All right.

Alice understood the basic situation: "I think I also understand why Ida came to you, our new drug is tentatively named Alpha preparation, and its effect is based on microbial technology, so that the body's excess fat quickly separates weight loss drugs." If Mr. Will really wants to sign up, I'm sure ......"

She looked at Tom's shape: "You might have the opportunity to become an ambassador for this product directly......"

"Diet pills!?"

The image ambassador of bullshit, that's not what Tom cares about, but the previous sentence is more exciting than any surprise!

"That's right, Mr. Will, let me explain the rationale for this product."

The topic was picked up by the experts, but Evan Delov certainly didn't intend to talk about it, and after a while, he also knew that Tom was a typical "normal person".

"At present, there are the following centralized classifications of common weight loss drugs on the market. One is an appetite suppressant, the other is an energy expenditure enhancer, and then there are types that prevent the digestion and absorption of food, or affect metabolism. ”

"Obviously, these drugs are based on the level of treating symptoms, using indirect means to reduce caloric intake and increase caloric release, so as to achieve the goal of weight loss. Therefore, this kind of drug will also be prone to rebound effect, when appetite can no longer be suppressed, when the effect of increasing energy expenditure is not there, when the digestion and metabolism of food return to normal on its own, the person's weight will naturally return. ”

"But our new drug is different in that it allows the ingredients to break down fat directly and then release it out of the body as the body excretes normally. To put it figuratively, it is equivalent to drug-based liposuction! ”

Evan Delov has made the situation as brief as possible, and it is only up to the potential volunteer to think.

"Drug-induced ...... Liposuction? ”

Tom blinked, ashamed of Delov's tirade, and that was the only highlight he could grasp.

To be reasonable, due to the inherent characteristics of the English language, unless the relevant terms are memorized, no ordinary person can be proficient in those countless medical terms. Tom swears to God that he only has a high school degree in this life, and the only thing he eats on weekdays is aspirin. As for the field of weight loss......

He and Mary, who look like they are aspiring to lose weight?

"It's the principle of enzyme breakdown." Alice spoke again, this time completely locking the English noun into the field of professional biology.

"As we all know, enzymes are biological catalysts, and almost all cellular processes require their participation to improve efficiency. Although enzymes are mostly proteins, a small number of molecules with biocatalytic functions are not proteins, and some RNA molecules called ribozymes also have catalytic functions. Our new drug is based on the latter principle. ”

At this point, Alice raised an eyebrow at Evan Delof and smiled, but it wasn't something Tom would notice.

"So, as we all know......," Alice continued, adding the content of her high school biology electives: "Different enzymes have different functions, and this enzyme based on the RNA structure that we have cultivated has a function of breaking down fat efficiently. The main ingredient of this new drug is this enzyme, and what we are going to test now is its weight loss effect on the general population. ”

The basic issues that need to be explained have been explained, specifically when it comes to taking methods and precautions, which are exactly what need to be clarified in the new drug testing stage, not to mention the screening of prohibited people. That's why new drugs always need to be tested in rounds and the people tested are volunteers, because no one knows what kind of effect a certain drug will have on which group of people.

Even if scientists can compile long pieces of theoretical data in advance, practice is only practice after all.

"Uh...... So that's ......" Tom swore to heaven that he could understand what enzymes and RNA were in the back of the explanation...... He said that he didn't take biology at all, what the hell is this?

"That is, after I finish the test, I will be able to become skinny!?"

Alice pursed her lips, and then a burst of brotherly laughter rang out in succession. She could see that Ada's quirky little girl was really discerning, and she had already provided her with the most suitable test subject. Just this Tom Weir's stunned energy, isn't he just waiting for her and Delov to toss?

"That's right, Mr. Will, congratulations, as long as you can walk down all our experimental procedures, I will definitely make you a skinny guy with a great body!"

If he can really persevere.

"And then as I just said, the image ambassador of this new drug will be automatically released. Judging by your current weight, it should be two hundred and fifty pounds, right? Come to think of it, if you take this new drug continuously, you will become thin after a year or two...... Mr. Will, do you know how much money you can earn as an ambassador? ”

This question was a bit more than Tom could have imagined. Ambassador? He understands this concept, and the men and women who often appear in advertisements should be ambassadors, right?

"So, I'm going to be a TV star!?"

The topic was quietly moving in the direction of the fool, and Evan Delof didn't speak, just sat happily watching Alice talk to the other party.

"Well~ That's right, the image ambassador of weight loss drugs tentatively named Alpha Preparation, this year's Fat Mr., next year's Skinny Mr~" Alice shrugged and said, "Of course, this requires you to agree to our new drug testing, and like I said, I haven't registered the company yet, so I strongly recommend that you wait a few more months." When all the conditions are in place, the plan for an open call for volunteers will ......"

"I'm at ease with you." Tom smiled and said, "You're a public figure, Miss Wang, I really like the sports car you parked outside." How can a new career like a big man like you be unreliable? ”

It's really, so innocent, what a kind speech.

Alice glanced at Delov, and in an extremely rare way, she stuck out her tongue in a weak heart. (To be continued.) )
