Chapter 314: Novartis Group, Backtracking!
Brazil, Amazon rainforest.
As the old saying goes, money can make ghosts grind, and in this rainforest far from the civilized world, there is no law and order, as long as you are willing to spend money, you can grind ghosts.
The fat sheriff's body was unexpectedly flexible, and as soon as the ship landed, he jumped up and jumped onto the dock, showing a flattering smile to Wei Chen, who was holding a cigarette.
"We've blown up the reef in the river, and lo and behold, our boat is unimpeded and has made it here." The sheriff rubbed his hands together and said.
Wei Chen glanced at the small fishing boat that the sheriff was riding, which was not large, equipped with two Yamaha brand external gasoline engines, and carried about two tons of cargo.
Now that it has successfully crossed the rapids to the village's improvised pier, the road should be clear, and the shallows and reefs have been cleared by explosives.
"When you go back to Manaus, you will naturally receive the money." Wei Chen said lightly, "There is another thing, it is best not to disturb our scientific research base, there must be someone in the town to guard it, and no one else will let it go." β
The sheriff smiled all over his face, patting his fat chest and assuring Wei Chen that from now on, this was Xingchen Technology's private territory, and anyone who dared to come here to make trouble would use a machine gun to mumble them.
Wei Chen didn't say anything, he had been stationed in Brazil for three years, and he was already accustomed to everything in front of him.
The nearby jungle has long been cut down to make way for an airstrip, and now that even the river has been blown up, the transportation of the base will no longer be a problem in the future.
It is the local military and police who cut down the forest and blow up the river, and their original duty is to protect the rainforest and animals, but unfortunately in the face of interests, their duties cannot be eaten.
Wei Chen walked towards the village, the construction workers were rebuilding the barren village, if the people in the village wanted to enter the city, Xingchen Technology would send them to Manaus, if they wanted to stay, give them a job as a security guard, patrol along the rainforest and rivers every day, and pay them at the end of the month.
In short, under the paving of money, everything was quickly settled.
Laboratory buildings and dormitory buildings are rising rapidly, dozens of small planes land in the jungle every day, and even the cement used to build the building is also transported by planes.
Wei Chen came all the way to the airstrip, the runway was cement that had just been laid not long ago, and only propeller planes could take off and land, and a steel frame warehouse was built at the end of the runway, which was where the plane spent the night, and you could also do some simple maintenance and store some goods.
At this moment, a small twin-engine plane was preparing to take off, and the rear hatch of the plane was removed and stuffed into a large water tank, which was filled with black fish cultivated by Wen Chengfeng.
This fish is not only strong in combat, but also survivable, even without an oxygen machine, it can still survive for a long time.
"Are you all ready? Europe is in a hurry. Wei Chen said to Wen Chengling.
For Wei Chen, black fish is used to eat, braised and stewed, and can also be made into fish meatballs.
But Wen Chengling had a different kind of feelings, he was a little reluctant to look at those black fish.
For many years, the Wen brothers have lived with Blackfish, and they are like an army trained by the Wen brothers, ready to rush into battle to avenge their parents.
"Well, it's time to go." Wen Chengling nodded slightly.
Europe, Switzerland.
When he returned to Novartis again, Wang Liguo brought an aquarium made of black plexiglass, and it was impossible to see what was inside, and two colleagues from the European branch carried the box one after the other.
The plump blonde female secretary asked Wang Liguo to go to the president's office, Cheng Yu frowned, and asked puzzledly, "Shouldn't you go to the biological laboratory first?" We came with something. β
Wang Liguo was also a little stunned, the biological laboratory of the Novartis Group was not in this building, according to the previous agreement, the black fish should be sent over for testing at this moment, and then Sim Khan handed over the samples and experimental data to Wang Liguo.
Time was pressing, and there was nothing to do but drink tea and chat at Sim Khan's office, so why bother.
The secretary smiled apologetically and said, "I don't know, but the president told me that when you arrive, you should go to his office first." β
Wang Liguo frowned and nodded, so everyone took the elevator and carried the heavy aquarium to Sim Khan's office.
The secretary pushed open the door, and saw that Sim Khan was not only in the large office, but also the three executive directors of Novartis, and an old man with gray temples, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and two young people next to him, who seemed to be researchers.
Seeing that Wang Liguo had arrived as promised, Sim Khan had a ashamed and helpless expression on his face, he stood up and said, "Mr. Wang, you have worked hard. β
"Allow me to introduce you to our Executive Director, Mr. Graff, whose family was involved in the founding of Novartis Pharmaceuticals and is the patriarch of the company."
After all, Sim Khan is a professional manager, with good cultivation, and the board of directors is his boss, and now he is put on the side by the bosses, Sim Khan has not complained, and still performs his duties.
"This is Professor Pierre from the Ecole Polytechnique de Lausanne."
After Sim Khan had introduced the board members, he began to introduce the gray-eyed scholars, and he said a whole bunch of illustrious titles to prove how good Professor Pierre was, but Wang Liguo was confused.
Of course, the Ecole Polytechnique de Lausanne is very powerful, in this world, the best universities are almost all English schools, in addition to a number of high-level universities in North America, it belongs to Oxford in the British Isles, Cambridge is more powerful, but the schools in the British Isles still speak English.
Of all the non-English-speaking universities, Ecole Polytechnique de Lausanne and its sister school, Γcole Polytechnique Zurich, are the highest-ranked, and Pierre can be the head of the Department of Life Sciences at Γcole Polytechnique de Lausanne, and the level is by no means low, but the question is, does this matter have anything to do with him?
Sim Khan showed an embarrassed expression and was about to explain to Wang Liguo, when Director Graf stood up and said: "Professor Pierre is an expert we specially invited to solve the problem, and the professor's team has found through research that the southern gourmet mermaid has a natural genetic defect, as we all know, piranhas are always a team action, and the reason why they are terrible is largely due to this biological trait." β
"Through experiments, Professor Pierre discovered the key genes that broke up the piranha team, and through the intervention of neurodrugs, perhaps the piranhas could kill each other"
Graf spoke vigorously, and Professor Sim Khan nodded frequently, showing a somewhat smug look.
Before they could finish speaking, the quick-tempered Cheng Yu suddenly interrupted them, "Wait, what do you mean by saying this today?" β
Although Graf had already made up his mind, he knew very well that these black-haired and black-eyed guys were coming on behalf of Xingchen Technology, and in this world, no one wanted to be an enemy of the powerful Xingchen Technology, including Novartis.
So Graf wanted to be as tactful as possible, he showed an embarrassed expression, and said to Cheng Yu and Wang Liguo: "Actually, we are also a last resort, Lake Constance is a public water, and there are many tourists on weekends, if you follow your plan, put murderous Chinese black fish into the lake to fight against the piranhas that escaped into the lake, I'm afraid it's not appropriate." β
"Professor Pierre's method may not be effective, but it is low-key enough, so we want to give it a try first, and if it works, we won't have to trouble you."
Wang Liguo frowned, took out the phone from his pocket, and prepared to ask Luo Jia.
And Cheng Yuqi's lungs are about to explode!
The black fish that can fight against piranhas has gone to great lengths to get it from South America to Europe, and now Novartis is backtracking, is this a three-year-old child!?
