304 Giant Medicine and Li Renqiao

The Spanish flu is raging all over the world, and after the Spanish government announced the flu epidemic, governments around the world have also announced the flu situation to a greater or lesser extent. "Friendly Fights

For a time, newspapers about the flu were overwhelming, and the attention paid to Cheng dù even surpassed several key victories won by the coalition forces in the European theater.

Public panic, rumors, and gossip spread rapidly, and many people claimed that human beings were killing each other, causing the wrath of the heavens and the wrath of the people, and God was going to punish mankind.

The credibility of the government was facing a great test, and officials from the Ministry of Health convened medical scientists from Harvard University, the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, and other major institutions to discuss solutions, but unfortunately they could not find a better way to deal with it for the time being, and the invention of an effective treatment for the Spanish flu became a global problem.

But there are also people who don't care about it, such as a chemist who doesn't pay attention to a small thing like the flu.

There is a pharmaceutical factory called Giant Company on the outskirts of Los Angeles, which mainly produces gauze, first-aid triangular bags and other medical supplies. Although the product is ordinary, it is of good quality and in large quantities, so it has received quite a few orders from the army. In particular, the triangular first-aid kit produced in accordance with Situ Nan's instructions has become an indispensable item for the US military's logistics procurement, saving the lives of many soldiers.

Since its opening in 1913, the Giant Pharmaceutical Factory has expanded from a simple workshop with only 30 workers to a factory with 2,000 employees five years later.

However, the giant company's products are single, and the products are mainly first-aid triangle bags and medical cotton yarn, which are not too high-tech and seem to have little development potential. Such small companies abound in the William consortium, so Situ Nan almost never paid attention to them.

If there's anything special about this giant company, it's that it seems to be very lucky. Since the construction of the factory, we have received orders from Europe. The Spanish flu epidemic that is now circulating all over the world has made the masks produced by Giant out of stock.

It looks like the Giant's heat can continue for a while. However, relying on the production of low-level products such as masks, although the market is very good now, it is a bit unworthy of the name after all, and it is not a big pharmaceutical company, let alone a giant.

In addition to the unworthy pharmaceutical factory, the giant company also has a dye factory, well, specializing in the production of a red dye called Bailang Duoxi, which is sold to textile factories every year and makes a little money, barely able to maintain the production of the factory, let alone any breakthrough development.

However, this is all the rule set by Situ Nan at the beginning, and Giant Company has always abided by this regulation, in fact, the management of the entire Giant Company does not have much sense of innovation. However, in recent years, the market has been good, and the giant company has lived quite well.

The strangest thing is that there is also a real room with a lot of specifications under the name of Giant Company, but it is not a medical drug, but an irrelevant chemical technology, which is really not a proper business.

However, after a long time, both the Giant Company and the real yàn room have slowly adapted to this awkward relationship. A few years ago, Situ Nan invested a large amount of research funds and commissioned Li Renqiao to research a red dye.

Later, Li Renqiao succeeded, so he handed over the technology to Giant. The people of the giant company began to be bored, and in view of Situ Nan's words, they invested in the dye factory.

They had reported this matter to Situ Nan, but at that time, Situ Nan was busy with the affairs of the Western Petroleum Company, and he forgot about it after going back and forth. Owning Robles Securities, Wells Fargo, Bethlehem Steel and other large corporations in succession, Situ Nan took the small giant company outside Los Angeles.

The Giant Real Yàn Room has always been safe with the Giant Company, and the well water does not interfere with the river water, although they are very close, but there is no contact with each other.

There are several senior chemical engineers in the Giant Real room, and they are all top talents in the industry. It's a pity that because of a technology, they hardly pay attention to the outside world.

This technology is industrial ammonia, which is only available in Germany and not in other countries. It was with the help of industrial ammonia technology that the Germans were able to produce countless saltpeter after the sea saltpeter trade was cut off, which was one of the reasons for them to continue fighting.

Following the success of the Germans, chemists all over the world have been working on industrial ammonia synthesis technology, but unfortunately not many have achieved much success.

"Alas, the real yàn has failed again. Damn, why is it just so little? Is it because we haven't found a more suitable catalyst or because the temperature is not high enough? ”

Li Renqiao grabbed his long, somewhat greasy hair and said with annoyance. The other team members next to him also couldn't help sighing, they had spent almost five years on this project, invested hundreds of thousands of dollars, but it felt like it was just a little bit close, as if there was a thin layer of paper, but it just couldn't be broken.

"I feel like we're on the verge of success. Guys! Let's go back and look at the real yàn, every step, every formula is recalculated, and next time we will definitely succeed. ”

Li Renqiao cheered. Although he had said this countless times, he and his group were convinced that they would succeed.

Well, this is a bunch of science maniacs, and even if there is a world war outside, even if there is a flu raging on the streets of Los Angeles, it can't distract them.

Early in the morning of this day, Li Renqiao walked out of the real room with bloodshot eyes, intending to go to the canteen of the Giant Pharmaceutical Factory opposite to find something to eat, and he spent another sleepless night, in order to calculate a new chemical reaction formula.

"Mr. Li Renqiao?" Just as Li Renqiao was walking and thinking, a voice interrupted his train of thought, he looked up and saw a young Asian man looking at him with a smile, but compared to the other party's vigor, he was so depressed that he wanted to be a homeless man.

"I am. Is there something wrong? ”。 Li Renqiao asked lightly.

"I am Mr. Situ Nan's secretary, and my name is Lin Yimin. Mr. Situ Nan wants to see you, is it convenient? If you can, let's go! Lin Yimin said politely.

Following the direction of the other party's gaze, Li Renqiao saw a brand-new car not far away.

"Situ Nan wants to see me? When will he be in Los Angeles? Li Renqiao said to himself, and when he said the last sentence, he laughed, because he hadn't left the real room for half a year, and he would definitely not know when Situ Nan returned to Los Angeles. Except for the real yàn, he doesn't care about other things.

"Alright! This car is good, it seems, that kid is sending again! Li Renqiao smiled and got into the car generously.

"Lin Yimin, right? Are you Szeto Nan's new secretary? Tell me how he's doing. I haven't seen him in years. Li Renqiao asked Lin Yimin about Situ Nan.

Speaking of which, Li Renqiao is a few years older than Situ Nan, when Situ Nan and Robles were at Harvard, Li Renqiao was a graduate student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology next door. However, in the past few years, he has been nested in the real yàn room, and he has hardly contacted Situ Nan. After Situ Nan left a research fund for the real room, he also left it aside and ignored it.

Before coming, Situ Nan briefly told Lin Yimin about Li Renqiao, and knew that he Li Renqiao was a technical maniac.

"The young master has done a lot of business over the years, got engaged last year, and gave birth to a son not long ago. Now we're going to his Hollywood home. Lin Yimin said.

"Oh. Oh my God, time flies so fast, that kid Situ is actually married and has children! Li Renqiao said happily, "What about Robles' kid?" ”

"Mr. Robles is in New York, in the financial business. But he is not married, and he is still single. Lin Yimin said, he thought for a while, and continued: "Mr. Li, now that there is a flu in Los Angeles, many people have been infected, and many people have died. You can see that people on the street are wearing masks. It's very serious, not only in the United States, but now there is an epidemic of this Spanish flu all over the world. ”

"Huh? So strict zhòng? It's no wonder that factory workers have been wearing masks lately. Li Renqiao nodded, and only then did he realize the severity of the situation.

Li Renqiao carefully looked at Los Angeles outside the car window, the streets have prospered a lot, the roads have expanded, there are more houses, taller, and more people, not much like the Los Angeles in his impression, but like New York, Chicago and other big cities.

Li Renqiao sighed in his heart, feeling a little "a few days in the mountains, and a thousand years in the world", but he was still thinking about how to talk about studying funding after meeting Situ Nan later. His synthetic ammonia is at a critical stage, requiring a grant of hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Just when Li Renqiao was silently thinking about Situ Nan, Situ Nan was sitting with Andrew.

"I'm going back to the east. There's a lot of work in Pittsburgh that I need to go back to. Andrew said.

"Why are you in such a hurry? With Richard's help in business, what are you worried about? Now that the Spanish flu is circulating everywhere outside, it's better to leave after a while! Situ Nan persuaded.

"No, it's just that the flu epidemic that is getting stricter and stricter now makes me very uneasy, compared to you, Richard is still a little lacking, I'm afraid he will take it lightly, and he doesn't know the consequences of the strict zhòng.

Moreover, this battle is almost over, so I can go back and clean up the whole thing. Didn't you kid order your companies to prepare for transformation recently? ”。

Andrew smiled, glanced at Situ Nan, and said in his heart: This kid is really getting more and more slippery. In terms of forecasting the general economic trend, it is particularly sensitive, following in the footsteps of Situ Nan, the growth rate of the Mellon consortium has been much faster than that of other consortiums in the east, and it has taken several key steps such as Gulf Oil, Treasury bond trading, and Bethlehem Iron and Steel in a row, making the capital efficiency of the Mellon consortium far higher than that of other consortiums. But this is something Andrew will not sue Sù Situan, and the smart Mellon has been making a fortune in silence.

Seeing Andrew's resolute look, Situ Nan knew that the little old man had made up his mind, so he didn't persuade him.

"Alright! In a few days I will bring the pastor to my house, and it will not be too late for you to go after the baptism of the little one. Hehe, haven't named him yet? Andrew, would you be happy to help? ”。 Situ Nan said with a smile.

"Of course." Andrew said that he was very useful in being able to name his grandson. After a while, he ran to see his beloved grandson humming an unknown tune.

After Andrew left, Situ Nan muttered: "Li Renqiao, Li Renqiao, I spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on Lao Tzu, see what kind of results you deliver?!" Giant Pharmaceutical, can it really create a miracle? ”
