Chapter 15 A Visit from Citigroup

"Obviously, living things must pass through several generations under the new conditions of life before they can mutate in large quantities; Moreover, once the biological system has mutated, it will often continue to mutate in subsequent generations......" Very wonderful explanation, Li Jie nodded thoughtfully.

Recently, he has always kept books in his hand, and with the powerful soul of a monarch-level demon, he is fully absorbing the knowledge and accumulation derived from human society for thousands of years with a large amount of reading. On the other hand, nature is the knowledge of bioengineering, which is an extremely large field involving many disciplines, and he is only in the first place.

"Old friend, thank you for thinking of me." As Citibank's Private Client Manager, Archibald? Evelyn faced tremendous performance pressure every day, and her hair turned gray. Two days ago, his old friend Raul Marcos suddenly said that he was going to introduce a potential big customer, which naturally made him overjoyed.

"Always, Archie." Flower gracefully stepped forward, shook his hand, and led him into the hotel lobby and took the elevator to the floor where Li Jie was.

As soon as the door opened, Archibald's heart sank, and the size and momentum of March and Gus made his hairs stand on end. Having worked as a private account manager at a giant like Citibank for some years, Archibald asked himself if he had seen countless dignitaries, but this Bruce? Li's bodyguards were more powerful than he had ever seen before, even the retired bodyguards of the special forces around the top rich were far inferior, which made him have higher expectations for his possible new customer.

"Hello, Mr. Li. Am I Archibald? Evelyn, it's a pleasure to meet you. Archibald humbly stepped forward and shook hands with Li Jie, who stood up.

"Feel free, Mr. Evelyn, tea or coffee, my Scotch whisky here is good, too?" Li Jie put down the book in his hand and motioned to March.

"The whiskey is ready." Archibald sat down and glanced at the books on the table. "on_the_origin_of_species" (Origin of Species), Charlie? Darwin.

"I thought I would meet a scientist with thick eyes, but I didn't expect it to be such a young gentleman." He said with a slight compliment.

"Haha, frankly, my expertise is nowhere near as good as Dr. Bell's, and I still provide some ideas. The survival of the fittest can simplify complex truths, and the idea of lifting weights as light and almost rational is more worthy of praise, isn't it? Li Jie gently shook the wine glass in his hand and changed to a more comfortable position to fit himself closely with the loose sofa.

Archibald has quietly looked at the young customer in front of him a few back and forth, exquisite tailored suits, although the movements are a little unrestrained, but there is another kind of uninhibited charm, the eyes are lazy but sometimes a sharp gaze, definitely an extraordinary character.

"Yes, that's what we've been doing at Citibank, and we're committed to providing the best private banking services to make our customers happier." When it comes to his job, Archibald gets serious. "For example, providing the most comprehensive and high-quality service to top clients like Mr. Li."

Citibank (Citybank?n?a.) should actually be called City Bank, and Citibank is the Chinese habitual name for it. Citigroup, to which it belongs, is the world's largest financial services group with the largest assets, the largest profits, the highest chain in the world, and the most complete business categories.

Citigroup serves more than 200 million customers in more than 100 countries around the world, and each customer can get all-round financial services such as savings, credit, securities, insurance, trusts, funds, financial advisory, asset management and other financial services at any Citigroup business location, ranking first among the world's peer companies in terms of the average number of products per customer. As a result, Citigroup's customer relationship network is an invaluable resource in its own right. Weir once proudly said, "This network is the only competitive advantage we have, and no matter where you go in the world, you may find a Citibank institution that can serve you." ”

In fact, this is also Li Jie's choice after considering it all, and without his approval, Flower would not dare to make his own decisions.

"Good, that's exactly what I need." Li Jie picked up the remote control at hand and turned up the sound of the TV.

"Welcome to the FoX?news?channel, I'm the host Chris? Wallace. According to the latest news from this station, New York University's Oakheide laboratory has developed a new drug. The main active ingredient of this new drug is named PeD7 enhancer, which is 300%-500% more effective than mainstream anti-eD drugs on the market, and the side effects are far less than Pfizer's star product Viagra......"

"This is aBc News Channel, the global anti-eD drug market has a super large capacity of more than 10 billion US dollars, and the two major international epidemiological survey data recognized in the field of andrology: the first conclusion of the survey is that the overall incidence of impotence (eD) accounts for 52% of the male population, of which 17% are mild, 25% are moderately impotence, and 10% are severe impotence. The other is the absolute number of impotence (eD) patients, the published data is that the number of impotence (eD) patients in the world has reached 150 million, and it is expected to exceed 300 million by 2025......

"CNN reporter Margaret? Mather brings you the latest situation of new anti-eD drugs in the front...... "I changed several stations in a row, and all the major mainstream news media were broadcasting the news of new drugs, and finally Li Jie stopped at CNN, only to see Samson on the camera? Bell is being besieged by a large group of reporters with long guns and short guns.

"Dr. Bell, what stage has the development of the new drug 'Virida' reached?" A blonde and blue-eyed, big-breasted hostess grabbed the opportunity to ask a question.

"At present, the new drug has entered large-scale clinical trials, and from the current situation, the overall progress is very ideal, and the situation of a total of 512 patients in the three batches of testing has been greatly improved, and no obvious side effects and human damage have been found...... "Samson is finally dressed up a little more presentable today, and is talking in front of the camera, looking extremely high-spirited.

"Can you briefly explain how the new drug works, and how did such a big breakthrough come about?"

"It is said that a number of pharmaceutical companies, including Pfizer, are negotiating with the patentee of the new drug, do you have any intention of selling this new drug?"

"Is NYU the only holder of a patent for a new drug? Or is there an investment from other pharmaceutical companies? ”

"Dr. Bell, could you please predict when a new drug will be on the market? When will patients be able to buy 'Vilida' on the market? ”

But these pervasive reporters obviously wouldn't let Samson go easily, and those sharp questions really made him a little anxious, so he had to answer a few questions in a hurry and hide back in the lab.

Although many pharmaceutical companies that are eyeing the new drug have remained silent, and there is a tacit agreement to reduce the attention of the matter before the end of the negotiations, it is clear that it can no longer be delayed. Even if Li Jie did not take the initiative to promote the new drug, the powerful news media still smelled a lot of rumors, and it was already considered a great deal of those big pharmaceutical companies to be able to delay it until now to be widely reported.

New York University Chancellor John? Sykestone was also the most active, knocking on the side three or four times to ask Li Jie when he was going to announce the news, but when Li Jie never expressed his position, in the end he could only turn to harass Samson? Bel.

"Great breakthrough, Mr. Li is worried about the negotiation of new drugs?" Archibald was also apparently surprised by the alarming amount of attention to the matter, and asked observantly.

"No, I don't have any worries about the negotiations, and I hope that Citibank can help me with the speed of patent approval." To his surprise, Li Jie made another request. "You can consult Flor, Mr. Evelyn, for I have always been very generous to my friends who have helped me." He particularly accentuated the intonation of the last few words.

"We'll see where we can go. Mr. Li, Citibank will always be your most trusted friend. Although I don't understand why Li Kit is so eager to approve speed, how to achieve the customer's requirements is always the first thing that the account manager needs to consider. Now the situation is clear, as long as he helps Li Jie to take the initiative in the approval of patents, this business that may involve hundreds of millions of dollars in cash will fall into his hands, and the high commissions and key results prompt Archibald to go all out. What's more, Li Jie just asked to do his best to promote, and Citi naturally has his channels in this regard.

"Very good, I look forward to your good news for me, Mr. Evelyn." Li Jie nodded, Archibald playfully offered to leave, and Flower took the initiative to send him out. Before the professional account manager stepped out of the room, he began to discuss with Flower with great ambition.
