Chapter 199: Good things keep happening
After talking for nearly 3 hours, it was finally agreed that Muyang would hold 35% of the shares, be responsible for providing special drugs, and send two managers to join the company. The British government owns 35% and is responsible for the purchase of a pharmaceutical factory, and they are responsible for management, workers, and sales, and in the end, the management of the company still falls into the hands of the British government.
And the British royal family, who is not in a hurry and does not catch fire, finally got 30% of the shares, which is really relaxing.
However, Muyang is not without gains, he will become an academician of the Royal Academy of Sciences, and the University of Cambridge will give him a graduation certificate and a doctoral diploma, and at the same time, the royal family will not be stingy with the reward of the title in the future, of course, this is a promise, and it will not be fulfilled yet, after all, Muyang has not yet made such a big contribution.
Muyang expressed his gratitude for this.
"I wish I could meet my majesty and express my loyalty and sincerity." Mu Yang said shamelessly.
"I think His Majesty has received your sincerity, your Williams family has always been the king's most loyal servants, and now with you, I think your Williams family is about to rise, take me to say hello like your father, Baron Williams."
Henry? Baron Bessemer said very politely, of course, this is just a polite word, as a baron who personally serves the king, he will not easily greet a country baron, this is just because he received benefits and said the scene to Muyang's face, the British nobles are so hypocritical.
The factories were ready-made, and the government took over a large pharmaceutical company outright. In the current pharmaceutical factory, the technology to make tablets is still available, and Muyang asked the workers to make simple changes to those clumsy machines. Muyang doesn't know much about machinery, but it's still easy to install a few feeding bins.
As for the powder, it may be used for experimentation. Mu Yang didn't worry, it would be strange if they could research it. At least at the current level of European science, they can't do this, because there are many things that are not available in the current basic industry.
The feeding bin is large enough, and the feeding is enough for one or two months of production, and you must know that the tablets manufactured are mainly anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and antiviral drugs brought by Muyang, plus the finished drugs made of traditional Chinese medicine, and finally corn starch. Western medicine, on the other hand, only accounts for a few milligrams. Chinese medicine accounts for 3%, and the rest is all corn starch.
Muyang sent Elver to keep an eye on the operation of the factory, and now Elver has completely become Muyang's little brother, of course, Muyang's salary to him is not low, enough for him to become a decent upper-class person.
The British government is also more trustworthy, and Muyang's proposal to be a member of the Royal Academy of Sciences was quickly passed, and Muyang also became the youngest academician of the Royal Society in history. This is a great honor, you know, the members of the Royal Academy of Sciences are the most high-level figures in the whole of Britain and even the whole of European countries.
And Muyang has also added a layer of umbrella that is enough to protect himself. With the name of an academician, no one dares to touch him easily, because the Royal Academy of Sciences is directly protected by the British royal family. Whether in the scientific community or in the upper class, academicians are a group that receives everyone's attention and respect. Even if they have a lot of assets, they will not be coveted.
And the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom learned the identity of Muyang Cambridge University Medical School after not graduating from the school. personally found Muyang and issued him a graduation certificate, which is not counting, because of Muyang's achievements in medicine, he also directly awarded Muyang the title of Doctor of Medicine at Cambridge University, and invited Muyang to become a visiting professor at Cambridge University.
The small pills produced are the size of Liuwei Dihuang pills, and those who can take the medicine can take them orally directly, and those who can't just take them can directly use boiling water to take them.
After a course of about 5 to 7 days, many people who took the medicine were cured, and Muyang's name is now recited like an angel.
However, Muyang is even happier that the factory is continuously producing pills, and his price is not cheap, and each pill is like a gold coin, every grain is money, there is one-third of Muyang's income, and Muyang will have a bumper harvest in this autumn.
For the first time, Chinese medicine was recognized by people from all over the world, and many people were amazed that Chinese medicine had such a therapeutic effect, and since then, many countries have begun to study Chinese medicine.
And China, as a producer of Chinese herbal medicine, has also benefited a lot from this plague, at least those Chinese medicines will become an income for many people.
Traditional Chinese medicine, for the first time, was officially unveiled in front of the people of the world and was remembered.
By this time it was already the autumn of 1918, the influenza virus had been raging all over the world, and a new special drug was developed, which immediately attracted the attention of the whole world. Williams's name was praised by the medical community.
The most professional medical journal in the UK reported on the whole thing, especially Muyang's theory of virology and the theory of disinfection, which is a major discovery and a huge topic, and professionals pay more attention to his contribution to scientific discovery.
In the outside world, while newspapers in various countries have reported on the epidemic of influenza viruses, a report that gives people hope has been reported by newspapers around the world, that is, the Royal Academy of Sciences of the United Kingdom, only 27 years old, academician of the Academy of Sciences, Cambridge University Medical Doctor, Joseph Williams, invented a special drug that can effectively treat influenza, and the cure rate has reached more than 7%.
People seem to see hope, hope for life, you know, now the whole world, has fallen into the panic of this plague, countries around the world are actively fighting against this flu virus, but with little effect.
According to reports, more than 1 million people have been infected in the United Kingdom, 600,000 in the United States, more than 1.5 million in France, and nearly 6 million people have now been infected in the Kingdom of Spain, which is the worst of all, and the whole world is in a flu panic.
The king of Spain was infected with the disease, and because Spain was the most severe and the most infected, the flu became known as the Spanish flu.
Countries in the world that can contact the United Kingdom have sent special people to come over to discuss the purchase of drugs, you know, this is a life-saving thing, no one doesn't care, the lowest level of people will also be the ambassador level of a country, many countries are foreign ministers and even the king and president come directly to negotiate, even China, which is not a hard-hit area, also sent Lu Zhengxiang, then Minister of Foreign Affairs, accompanied by the US Ambassador Gu Weijun, of course, there is another reason for Gu Weijun to come in person, that is, his wife Tang Baoyue is also infected with the Spanish flu, The cure was helpless, and when he heard that the British had this special medicine, he wanted to get the medicine as soon as possible to treat his wife's illness.
I don't know where to get the news, Lu Zhengxiang and Gu Weijun learned that Mu Yang was very close to the Chinese, and on the battlefield of World War I, they once paid for coffins to bury those Chinese workers, so that the two saw the opportunity.
And this meeting will be the beginning of Muyang's first official diplomatic trip.
Gu Weijun is a legendary figure, a figure in the history of Chinese diplomacy can not be bypassed, in the textbook that Muyang studied, there is a detailed introduction of Gu Weijun, and Gu Weijun is also a remarkable diplomat in the history of the Republic of China that Muyang admires.
