Chapter 169: Talent!
Loren Melson, M.D., is a professor who has devoted his life to the study of genetics and cytogenetics.
But what really made her shine and became known to the world was her research on vitamin C.
In the eighties, most people have understood the great value of vitamin C, but this kind of thing is very unstable, high temperature, light, water, exposure to air will quickly inactivate, direct use of the skin is also very irritating, no skin care companies are willing to use this kind of thing.
However, Professor Merson discovered by chance that L-vitamin C combines with tyrosine and zinc, which not only helps protect cells from ultraviolet rays, but also stimulates collagen production.
But alas, all the big factories in that era scoffed at this invention, thinking that it was a doomed path, and some people even saw Professor Merson trumpeting this kind of thing with garlic mortars at home, and ridiculed that it was a trick of a medieval witch, and the professor was short of money and would not use this kind of thing to fool people.
The ridicule and contempt did not make Ms. Merson back down.
In the following long time, she has been refining medicine in her own ancient method, constantly researching the formula, and finally a few small skin care companies are willing to cooperate with her to develop this product in the 90s, and the vitamin C skin care that was shrouded in prejudice also shines with her efforts, even if there is no fanfare, relying on the results of double-blind experiments against the sky, it has captured the critical eyes of a large number of celebrities, and even promoted the progress of society.
"Vitamin C is responsible for fighting free radicals and reducing collagen loss, and tyrosine stimulates new collagen production.
For this, I have read a lot of research papers on collagen, including Dr. Fan's work. ”
Professor Melson said, smiling and nodding at Fan Laidi, Fan Laidi felt deeply flattered, she didn't expect that she was unknown in the country, and she could still be recognized by this legendary woman when she came here.
"I am flattered and thank Professor Merson for his trust, can you give me an email address of yours? I hope to get more guidance from you. ”
"Of course, my dear." Merson smiled and took the leather bag from a middle-aged man, tore a sticky note from it, quickly wrote his email number on it, and stuffed it into Fan Laidi's hand.
Fan Laidi nodded cautiously and nervously like a star-chasing girl, and the person who helped Meiersen take the bag before smiled:
"Where is Dr. Fan working now, and would you be interested in coming to work with us?"
Only then did Fan Laidi notice that there were three men standing behind Merson.
One of the three men was smiling, one was calm, and the other had a bald face with a hint of disdain.
The temperament of these three people is quite good, and they are by no means ordinary assistants, and she quickly replied:
"I work in Yangfan Daily Chemical in China. Responsible for the research and research of collagen, and doing the research of human-like collagen.
I have experimented with fermentation amplification technology before, and have made some progress, but I don't have any ideas for reorganization, so I hope you can give me more advice. ”
The person who asked Fan Laidi the question before and the person with a calm expression who looked a little Middle Eastern blood both raised their eyebrows, and said with some surprise:
"Sail for daily chemicals? Deep blue is sailing! ”
"Yes, yes, it's our brand!" Speaking of this, Fan Laidi finally showed a trace of pride.
Deep Blue Beauty has now become popular abroad, and it is really inclusive as an employee.
When the bald head heard the name of Deep Blue Makeup, there was a slight look of surprise in his eyes, but then he said disdainfully:
"Doing research in China? Hey, can you fellows tell the difference between a rabbit and a camel? ”
"Professor Ohm!" Merson unhappily stopped the bald head from continuing his nonsense, and the bald head shrugged his shoulders in a casual expression.
"I'm sorry, but I'd like to introduce you to all three of them, who have been working with us on research and have made a significant contribution to the promotion of our products – Prof. Pirnet and Prof. Ohm are professional professors of dermatology at Duke University, and Prof. Pirnay's son is the general agent of our products.
Professor Obond is an academician of the Academy of Sciences and has made very high achievements in the field of skin science! ”
This......
Fan Laidi had read Professor Ohm's research literature on ceramides before she came to the United States, and she also tried to get in touch with the scientist when she came to the United States this time, but she couldn't, but she didn't expect it to be the bald head in front of her.
Pirnet had heard of this person who had been a leader in dermatology at Duke University and had a great reputation in the industry.
As for Obonde......
She glanced at the scientist, who was of Middle Eastern descent, and felt a deep sense of awe.
Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
The apex of scientists.
She is the only one who has a doctorate, Fan Laidi, but the minimum education in this academician's laboratory is estimated to be a doctorate......
Professor Merson is the chief scientist of the company that pioneered vitamin C skincare, and these three top dermatologists are strictly her employees.
Although she knew that there were many powerful people who came to MIT to give a report, but when she saw so many talented people in the industry at one time, the little confidence that Fan Laidi had finally mustered came to naught, and she bowed her head in shame.
Their own scientific research capabilities are very insufficient, and there are no unique products now, which is natural for professors who are engaged in scientific research to disdain them.
It's all my incompetence......
Fan Laidi's heart was full of resentment, and she vowed to find ways to make some achievements, and when I went back, everything in the company would be different!
Professor Pirnay was born with a smiling face, and he laughed:
"Huaguo's dermatology has just started, and it is helpless to lag behind.
Would Dr. Fan be willing to come to our agency? We can provide you with the best research environment in the world, and we can make progress together and maybe get some breakthroughs in collagen. ”
"No way!" Ohm shook his shiny bald head and said with disdain, "How can our research route be changed casually, what kind of collagen is studied, the route of this thing will not work at all." ”
"Don't listen to him." Melson glared at Ohm, took Fan Laidi's hand, and smiled calmly, "The prejudice and disdain you encounter now I also experienced in the eighties.
Fortunately, at least you don't have to experiment with a stone mortar in your own backyard now, I admire the little Jiang Mr. Yangfan Daily, I feel that we have many opportunities to cooperate in the future. ”
She took out her business card and handed it to Fan Laidi:
"I have seen your company's marketing case before, and your company's Xiao Jiang can sell this kind of functional product when most people don't know about functional skin care, which I admire very much.
If a female entrepreneur wants to succeed, she needs to put in more effort exponentially, and this world is the one who needs to do things quietly, isn't it? ”
Pirnet also took out his business card, presented it with both hands, and said in a chic manner:
"If we don't dislike it, we can engage in some scientific research cooperation at any time in the future, no matter what we do!
Maybe I can help you apply for some funding, hehe, just hang me a three-piece when you send your paper. ”
Obon also took out his business card and said with a smile:
"The success of Deep Blue makes me very interested in Huaguo, maybe we will have the opportunity to work together in the future, we only have a little success in research, but your company is an expert in marketing, and I like Huaguo cuisine very much, we must have a lot of opportunities to work together."
Ohm was quite disdainful just now, but he didn't expect several colleagues to send him business cards, and he was embarrassed in place now, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
In terms of scientific research, his ability is more than one level higher than Pirnay's, but when it comes to business, he is really not close to Pirnay.
Although I don't like Yangfan Daily Chemical very much, a scumbag company with no scientific research strength, the success achieved by others is indeed real, which makes Ohm's heart feel a sour taste.
Why, why can't a high-ranking scholar like me make a fortune, it's these opportunistic people who make money.
Hmph, it's just advertising, what's the big deal.
When he was still struggling, Fan Laidi was already ready to say goodbye to Melson, Ohm gritted his teeth and quickly followed, his big bald head reflected a bright and bright light, trying to make his expression appear a little more harmonious.
"This is my business card, Dr. Fan. I'm sorry for the offense, but you shouldn't be upset! ”
"No, it won't!" Fan Laidi still has this emotional intelligence, and hurriedly said, "Our scientific research is indeed a little backward, and I also hope to learn some experience this time, and please give me more advice." ”
A lot of advice was a polite remark, but Ohm clearly took it seriously.
His eyes lit up slightly, and he lowered his voice and said:
"This is easy to say, can you help me contact Mr. Jiang?
Professor Merson's products are a bit expensive, and the technical route is starting to lag behind now.
It just so happens that I have the technology, we can cooperate, I have always wanted to create my own brand, I believe that combined with your company's marketing channels and my reputation in the scientific research community, we will soon be able to make a new brand that is invincible in the world! ”
Fan Laidi looked at Ohm in surprise, and it took a long time to react, she smiled kindly, put the business card in her pocket, and bowed a little to Ohm, smiling:
"I'm sorry, I refuse!"

Small Theatre Hours:
Jiang Nian: The product authors of the four North American companies have experienced it (because they can't use it all the time because they are poor), and their favorite is Professor Merson's product, but I heard that her old man is now going home to refine medicine, and she no longer asks about the world, and the market popularity of her products is not particularly high, which is really a pity.
