Although it was to refuse Ding Ruolan's so-called invitation to the party, Li Jie's reason was true.

The next morning, the first rays of dawn pierced the sky, staining the clouds with gold.

Li Jie walked down the gangway and looked up at the sky, the cold winter has not yet faded, and it is very rare to have such a view. By this time, his feet had already set foot on the ground at JFK (Kennedy International) Airport in New York.

The temperature in this bustling American city is not much different from that of East Shanghai, and if you don't need to go back to jet lag, you will hardly feel much change.

Of course, the so-called lack of perceptual change is only for Li Jie, and jet lag and sleep are not a problem for him at all.

And Trace? Joyce was going to have a lot of hard work, her beautiful face was a little tired, and it was clear that she hadn't rested well yesterday.

In fact, in order to collect and organize the steady stream of information from the New York head office, she basically only closed her eyes at dawn.

In any case, the professionalism and due diligence of this female secretary are still very positive.

"This is our draft artificial genome legislation, along with the full set of materials submitted to Capitol Hill...... This is the list of members responsible for the submission of Bill 6213...... This is the list of judging committees that include medical associations and reproductive experts...... This is the official reply to the rejection of the bill......"

Spacious, comfortable and luxurious, with little noise and bumps to the surface, the Bell 427 took off quickly from the tarmac. A light spin in the air, heading towards Manhattan.

Sitting in a helicopter, Trist held a large pile of information in her hand. It was handed over to Li Jie one by one, and the situation was introduced in detail.

"In the end, we voted only 37.5 percent in favor of the artificial genome bill, which is not optimistic."

This is why Li Jie rushed back to the United States in the first place, and before he returned to China, the Corona Company had already passed public relations and officially submitted a new draft artificial genome legislation to the House of Representatives, number.

The core of the draft. It is to clarify the definition and standardized management of artificial genomes, and on this premise, to treat patients and improve the basic physical constitution of human beings through artificial genomes.

Of course. Since the Corona Company is a well-deserved focus, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the passage of this bill will have a wide range of implications, which can be described as a lot of attention.

Because of this. After many lengthy rounds of discussion on Capitol Hill, the bill was finally rejected by the House of Representatives, and it was not even possible to enter the stage where the Senate proposed amendments, let alone reach an agreement between the two chambers and submit it to the president for signature.

While the last process is hardly difficult for Lee – if it passes both houses, the new president, Sheila, will not have to worry about being under too much pressure, and it will be time for her to reciprocate.

If the artificial genome bill is not passed, it can be said that most of the results of the corona company will be on hold, unable to create real value, relying only on clinical trials and volunteers. The scope of coverage is too narrow.

Especially Google's Larry? Paige and Kleiner Perkins' John? These people, who have invested astronomical sums of money into Corona Medicine, are not doing good deeds. If the bill is not passed one day, it will be impossible for the artificial genome project to be put on the market on a large scale, and for them, it will be a waste of time.

In fact, before the draft was formed, whether it was the executives of the Corona Corporation or the investor Larry? Page et al. I was not very optimistic about the passage of this bill, and at this time, it was unanimously agreed that Li Jie needed to rush back to preside over the overall situation. Discuss how to deal with this difficult situation.

The key point of disagreement is that Lee's insistence on including practical uses to improve human body function in the bill will undoubtedly only make the bill more sensitive. In John? In their opinion, it is almost impossible for Congress to pass this bill, because sensitive technologies like this are often only allowed to be used for medical purposes, and the so-called improvement of the human body is obviously beyond this scope, and they are almost sure that if the focus is only on medical use, the resistance to the passage of this bill will obviously be much smaller, but because of the insistence of Li Jie, the most powerful person, they have to compromise temporarily.

The result was indeed as they expected, even with the joint efforts of many parties, such a huge lineup encountered unimaginable resistance, and finally failed in the voting stage.

In such a situation, it is no wonder that they have a lot of complaints about Li Jie. Li Jie obviously can't hide the spun-off of the Corona Company from anyone, not to mention that he didn't hide it in the slightest, John? Dürr and the others also knew why Li Jie insisted on the clause of improving human body function - for the sake of corona biotechnology.

Originally, this is understandable, if the dual-goal bill can be passed, there is no doubt that everyone will be happy and once and for all, but now Li Jie's insistence has damaged their interests, so these bigwigs have called Li Jie one after another to hint at Li Jie, hoping that he can get the bill done as soon as possible. Otherwise, it may be necessary to amend the provisions of the bill.

Bills that can't be passed, no matter how well they are conceived, are just a mirror and a castle in the air, and they can't be seen and touched.

The cause and effect of this is obviously clear to Trace, who is now almost half of Li Jie's personal butler, so she knows the seriousness of the matter, and she almost stayed up all night sorting out the information in order to further sort out the context.

Li Jie took a few documents, took them in his hand and quickly flipped through them, and at the same time pressed the communicator to tell Gus and the helicopter pilot in the front row:

"Back to 432 Park Avenue."

He tilted his head and said with a smile to Trist on the side:

"Just take back the gift brought by Huaguo this time, and then you can also have a good rest, you worked hard last night. By the way, those ginseng teas are good for relieving fatigue and replenishing the mind, you can take a little and drink it. If you have time, arrange for you to receive artificial genome modulation from the company, which is very helpful for physical improvement. ”

Although Trist was moved by his concern for herself, she didn't care about it, but her eyes widened, and she seemed a little incredulous:

"Why not go to the company? You have been away for so long, there should be a lot of things waiting to be dealt with, not to mention that the matter of the bill has not been resolved yet, I'm afraid everyone is waiting for you to go back and preside over the overall situation! ”

For her enigmatic boss, she sometimes can't keep up with the other party's train of thought. There was such a fateful event for the company, and he didn't look like he was in a hurry at all, and he thought about sending the gift back first, most likely because he was in a hurry to talk to that Lisa? Meet Miss Marcos!

"Don't get excited, dear Tracy. You've done a great job with David on the corporate side? Drif and Itsaki Kiel are here, so don't worry too much. Even if you don't believe in their abilities, you should trust me to pay them well, shouldn't you? ”

Li Jie still looked at the information by himself, and did not raise his head to answer, but even from the voice, he really couldn't hear the slightest worry.

Trist was angry, she found that every time something went wrong, she was more anxious and worried, but her boss was always that calm and breezy look, and it seemed that the sky would not frown when it fell.

On the contrary, he can prove that he really knows it every time, and I hope it will be the same this time. Having said that, Bruce's posture seemed very calm and confident, which made her slowly calm down.

However, Trist inevitably became a little curious, what kind of means will this guy use to reverse the extremely unfavorable situation in front of him? Seeing that he looked like he was in control, he was obviously not ready to say it.

JFK Airport is located in Jamaica Bay, Queens, just over 20 kilometers away from downtown Manhattan, and with the poor road conditions in the metropolis of New York, it is often nearly an hour's drive away, so it is convenient to see the convenience of helicopters, but in about 10 minutes, he has returned to the top floor of 432 Park Avenue.

The Bell 427 landed calmly, and the huge rotor speed began to decrease, and the rotation became slow.

Gus had quickly stepped down to open the cabin door, and when Li Jie stepped on the roof, the first thing he saw was Lisa, who was wearing a purple coat and was already waiting for some eyes. Marcos, this beautiful woman seems to be much more beautiful than some time ago, tall and pretty, her long blonde hair is playfully blown away by the wind on the roof, and from time to time she brushes it back with her slender hands, revealing a messy beauty, which makes people sigh with extraordinary style

Seeing Li Jie get off the plane, Lisa's eyes lit up in high heels, and she actually trotted excitedly, like a cheerful lark pounced into his arms.

"What's the matter, my dear Lisa chick, you seem to have lost some weight again."

Li Jie gently hugged her delicate waist and kissed her forehead affectionately.

"I miss you, Bruce."

Looking at Trist and the others who came down one after another, Lisa seemed to notice that she was a little out of shape, and immediately felt embarrassed, calmed down a little and hurriedly got up from Li Jie's arms.

"I'm sorry how Aunt Maria is doing, I don't even have time to see her."

Li Jie stretched out his hand for Lisa to hold it, and then walked down the special corridor from the roof and entered his mansion together.

Talking about this, Lisa was obviously a lot happier, and she chatted with Li Jie about her recent experiences and observations. She hadn't seen her for a long time, and she seemed very excited, and she had to ask Li Jie to accompany her for breakfast.

And Tracer gave up breakfast and went back to her room to rest, since Li Jie was not in a hurry to go to the company, she just used it to catch up on sleep.

After receiving the news that the master was about to return, Elliot, a conscientious and professional housekeeper, had already ordered the kitchen to prepare a delicate breakfast.

Jam toast, fresh milk, oatmeal, cream puffs, bacon omelette and vegetable salad are not only freshly baked, but also simple and beautiful. (To be continued) Gentlemen's Gathering of Righteous Demons in New York
