Hype is not the preserve of modern people, it has been used for a long time, but it is not as systematic and insanely boring as later generations.

When a new drug is developed, of course, it also needs to be properly publicized, or through hype to improve the reputation of the inventor Chen Qiang. However, at a time when the marathon trial of the Su report case was boiling and attracted the attention of most Chinese people, the invention and advent of the anti-syphilis drug, which is also a special drug for sleeping sickness, did not grab the front page of the newspaper.

Of course, Chen Qiang's ethnicity and identity are also destined to be criticized and even personally attacked at the beginning of the development of new drugs. Because this is not only the launch of a new drug, but also a precedent for chemical therapy, it is the world's first antimicrobial drug, and it is a milestone event.

The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway. Chen Qiang knew that the surgical community would soon realize the significance of the invention of new drugs, and this would be after the efficacy was proven. Therefore, according to the steps that have been set, Giantho Vanamin first started clinical trials at Tongji Hospital, which was opened by the German Baolong, and at the Sino-French Pharmacy in China. At the same time, Chen Qiang began to purchase equipment, purchase reagents, train workers, and do large-scale production.

More than four years have passed since the syphilis outbreak in Naples. Borders cannot stop plagues, and diseases cannot escape evolution. Syphilis not only spread to the whole world, but also evolved into a sinister and vicious slow onset of the disease, at that time with tuberculosis and leprosy respected as the world's largest chronic infectious disease.

Such a stubborn disease that mankind has been fighting unremittingly against for more than four years, once there is a special medicine, the sensational impact is undoubted. Chen Qiang has a strong self-confidence in this, although he is not sure whether he can snatch all the honors and Nobel Prizes that belonged to Ehrlich six years later, but the invention of this one medicine alone is enough to make him famous in history.

Human beings, in groups, form groups. Ethnic groups are divided by clan language, and classes are divided by rich and poor. People vary from person to person due to different regions, industries, classes, and religions. People gather like people, form associations, and form a society, and the interpenetration of various fields is criss-crossed and intricately weaved. The word "society" has gradually replaced the original "sheji", which originally relied on the five soils and grains, and has summarized the composition of human activities and the relationship between people.

Originally, the Shanghai gang organization was for self-preservation, and gradually expanded hegemonically, or fighting, dividing, or merging. As a result, large and small gangs are attached to the two major systems of green and red. The Qinghong Gang is only for survival interests, and has no political nature of its own. Those toiling people at the bottom of society join in just to survive, but they are often used by certain political forces or gang leaders to become a kind of evil force that endangers society and become a tool for some people to grab personal interests.

For example, the Red Gang mainly controls the old city and the Chinese boundary of Longhua and the wharf along the Huangpu River, also known as the outer wharf or foreign steamship wharf; The Qinggang mainly controls the borders of China such as Zhabei, Hongkou and Yangshupu, and monopolizes the Suzhou Creek and the Hongkou Port Diversion Port, which lead to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, in addition to cargo terminals, including dung docks and garbage docks...... Also known as the inner pier.

Around the twentieth century, a large number of unemployed peasants who had migrated to the cities due to rural bankruptcy joined the ranks of dock workers, resulting in a large surplus of labor. In order to compete for work, dock workers unite with their geographical origins, fight each other, and compete for the dock. Gangs took advantage of the opportunity to enter and form a feudal control system on the docks. Large and small package foremen occupied the land and controlled the loading and unloading business of the wharves in Hong Kong, and the wharves on both sides of the Huangpu River were divided into multiple feudal kingdoms.

In order to compete for territory, various gangs often have martial arts, from heads-up to group fighting, from fist and foot kung fu to weapon fighting, which is mainly manifested in the competition for docks. In the shadow of the knife and axe, all kinds of stories about Shanghai Tang (the shootout is just a media rendering), as well as the tragedy of killing each other for the pier. The story of Shandong Ma Yongzhen and Shanghai white dysentery is actually not intense, but it is a classic of the struggle between the Qinghong gang at that time.

Of course, if one side of the fight feels invincible, or is afraid of endless retribution, it can also invite the leader of the gang with high rank or great power to make peace with the two parties, which is called "calling away" on the rivers and lakes.

Now, Chen Qiang represents the sick Jin Ye, sitting in the teahouse, and acting as a peacemaker with the other two Red Gang seniors. It is not a simple thing to want to be a peacemaker, you must be big enough, famous enough, and once you stand up, not only can both sides be compliant, but also everyone on Shanghai Beach Road believes that they can be obedient.

This time, Chen Qiang did come with the purpose of enhancing his name. Although it was named Hongbang in Xingyitang, the name of Xingyitang was not loud enough, in fact, not only could it not be compared with Hongmen Hall in Nanyang, but it was much worse than the American Zhigong Hall. Chen Qiang has already regarded the Chinese in Nanyang as the object of his struggle, whether it is financial support or human and material help, which is very important to his career development.

Therefore, he strives to expand Xingyitang in Shanghai and establish the image of a gang brother without revealing his true face. In that case, when he travels around the South Seas, he will get more respect and more help.

If this success in "opening up" the battle between the "Five Teeth and the Five" and the "Stunned Eyes", which also belong to the Red Gang, then there will be rumors in the rivers and lakes that "who and who may be fighting, it is someone who came out to speak, and they can't help but buy this account, so they turn the conflict into jade silk and reconcile as before". The news spread by word of mouth, and in the rivers and lakes, Chen Qiang's popularity naturally increased.

Well, it would have been a very simple thing. In Chen Qiang's mind, everyone sat down to chat, drink tea, what can't be discussed? But good wishes are always shattered by reality, and the two gangs are tense, and there seems to be a tendency to negotiate peace and fight for fire.

What made Chen Qiang feel even more depressed was that one of the two Red Gang bosses was dying and decrepit, and he had to be supported when he left; The other is middle-aged and deep, cherishes words like gold, and is good at nourishing qi.

Damn, these two guys are here to see the fun, or to see my jokes, right? In the louder and louder quarrels and accusations, Chen Qiang felt that he couldn't help but get ahead. He stood up and decided to convince people with virtue first, with an incorruptible tongue............
