Chapter 107: Li Tao is stiff
Google is worthy of being the world's largest search engine, Jiang Lan only took half a minute to spell out countless content about Dr. Albert Amos, and the first page is not only Wikipedia is all kinds of news about Albert Amos's development of new drugs.
At the same time, Liuyun translated Everett's answer into Chinese and typed it into his laptop and saved it as a txt file.
According to Everett, Albert Amos is not only one of the founders of the biopharmaceutical giant Caesaro, but also his close friend, the two have known each other since childhood, and have a deep relationship, so Albert is the best person for Everett to turn to because he will put Everett's personal safety above money and even the law.
What's more, Albert Amos is a billionaire, and a billionaire who lives in a laboratory for a long time and is obsessed with research, so what is the ransom in his eyes? Unless the kidnappers made an astronomical offer, Albert would not blink an eye when he withdrew the cash.
Finally, Everett added a few words to the effect that Albert and Caesaro needed him to help lobby in Congress so that the House of Representatives could submit an amendment bill that would be beneficial to their research and pass the Senate vote, so Albert would definitely put his personal safety first and would not call the police for millions of dollars.
"Strange."
After spending more than two hours reading Liuyun's translation of the web news, Jiang Lan muttered.
"Huh?" Fang Ziyu also felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say what was wrong.
"Do you know which are the most powerful agricultural biotechnology companies and pharmaceutical companies in the United States?" Jiang Lan had already fooled a game of chess that he was bound to lose, and he didn't dare to sell it again, so he immediately asked himself after asking a question, "Monsanto, Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson." All of them can be compared with the size of the world's top 500, such as Debayer, which acquired Monsanto, and Huaxia Chemical, which acquired Syngenta. ”
"Monsanto, founded in 1901, was a supplier of saccharin to Coca-Cola, the company's predecessor focused on the chemical industry, and later made fertilizers, relying on years of development and accumulation to make breakthroughs in agricultural biotechnology."
"Pfizer, founded in 1849, originated in the American Commonwealth Civil War, not only occupied the pharmaceutical market, but also became one of the largest chemical manufacturers in the United States, since 1928 the focus of the enterprise shifted to the field of antibiotics, or the pioneer of fermentation technology, Pfizer is the first company to produce penicillin with fermentation technology, and finally in 98 Viagra that is viagra listed, Pfizer achieved unprecedented success."
"Johnson & Johnson, founded in 1886, is a company I don't know much about, but it's certainly not just about making milk powder. In short, these giant enterprises are all large enterprises with a long history, and they have basically taken detours, except for the emerging industries based on the Internet, most of the other giant enterprises are also like this. ”
"But not with Caesara." Jiang Lan pointed to the computer screen, his expression was strange, and there was a trace of excitement in his solemnity, "Monsanto, Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson took a century to complete, Caesaro only took fifteen years, and the company's founders all started from scratch, even if the modern economy is booming, even if the former CEO and board members are all business wizards, then there is no way to explain why Caesaro can make so many technological breakthroughs in a short period of time?" ”
"Look, it's been 13 years of news, and Caesaro uses modified E. coli to produce insulin to reduce the cost of diabetes treatment."
"Here, in '09, the cold-tolerant genes of Arctic fish were extracted, and the genes of corn and potatoes were implanted to make these two crops more cold-tolerant."
"And here, the news three years ago, modified cow genes so that the milk contains staphylococcal enzymes, don't look at me, I don't know what this thing is, it seems to solve the problem of dairy cows suffering from mastitis, the news says that dairy farming loses billions of dollars every year because cows are unable to produce milk due to mastitis."
"Well, this is the latest achievement, implanting worm genes in pigs, so that the fatty acids of the pigs can be converted from unhealthy omega-6 fatty acids to healthy omega-3 fatty acids."
"That's just a small part of what I've pointed out." Jiang Lan's fingers poked many times on the screen, and the more he spoke, the more excited he became, "Why did a small self-made company become a biopharmaceutical giant in only 20 years, and why can it always lead the industry and make breakthroughs that Bayer and Monsanto have failed to achieve?" You see, here's an article dedicated to the history of the Caesaro Company, and the author ends by joking that one of the founders of the Caesaro Co., Ltd. is likely to be a reborn time-traveler, perhaps crookedly. ”
"You mean, Caesaro has something to do with the Rulers of Tomorrow?" Fang Ziyu frowned slightly, "According to what you say, then TX and Ali are both Tomorrow's Dominators, or are they related to Tomorrow's Dominators?" ”
"It's different." Jiang Lan shook his head again and again, "Internet giants are emerging industries and cannot be compared together. Of course, I don't rule out the possibility of what you said, anyway, since I knew about the existence of the Tomorrow's Dominator, I think any legendary successful person thinks it has something to do with the Tomorrow's Dominator, hehe. ”
This is probably a kind of inconspicuous jealousy, Fang Ziyu pursed his lips and didn't take it to heart.
"Whether or not Caesaro is related to another Tomorrow's Dominator, it doesn't matter to us."
Caesaro is one of the biopharmaceutical giants in the United States Federation, if it is really related to a certain Tomorrow Dominator, then that Dominator has obtained the Celestial Weapon for at least twenty years, and Fang Ziyu does not intend to provoke the old-timers with huge energy.
"It's really bad to increase right and wrong, but it may not have nothing to do with us." Jiang Lan made his signature gesture and shook his index finger, "I've been wondering before, who is going to kill Everett?" If it is a political enemy, it is impossible to use assassination methods, if it is a random event such as a mob attack, Ouyang Jie will not be unable to change the ending of Everett, if it is a terrorist H attack with political demands, it is impossible for no organization to be responsible for it afterwards, and Ouyang Jie should not be confused. ”
"Ruling out these possibilities, I never thought of anyone who would go to the trouble to kill Everett in a bombing? It is true that someone would benefit from Everett's death, but the stakes are insignificant compared to the risk of assassinating a senator and creating a bombing attack. ”
"You mean?"
"I have an idea, well, the first person Everett thought of when he encountered a difficult situation was Albert Amos, so the two of them do have a great relationship, and their interests are the same, if Everett wants to run for election, the source of campaign funds must be Albert, then Everett will definitely invite Albert Amos to the political dinner. So...... Is it possible that the real target of the bombing attack was not Everres, but Albert? ”
"To assassinate a company executive, to catch a senior senator?" Fang Ziyu's eyes were full of suspicion, "If it's really aimed at Albert, there's no need to make it so complicated, right?" ”
"Who knows? Look here. Jiang Lan slid his finger twice on the screen, "Since five years ago, Albert Amos led a team to carry out classified research in the underground laboratory building, and has not appeared in public so far. ”
