As one of the top scientific research journals in biology, Microorganisms is very efficient. In less than two weeks, the reply letter arrived in Li Zheng's hands.
"Dear Mr. Li Zheng, thank you for your contribution. Your paper "On the Role of Catalysts in Drug Manufacturing" has passed the review and will be published in the January 1983 issue." Hansen Doyle, one of the big names in the global biological world.
Along with the journal's reply, David also arrived. The dusty David gave Li Zheng a big hug as soon as he entered the door.
"Oh, my dear Li, do you know how much I miss you? After knowing that you were in Hong Kong, I wanted to come back to see you all the time, but the Swiss side was too busy to delay it until now." David The blue eyes were filled with sincerity. If Li Zheng had not known him for too long, he would have believed him.
Li Zheng expected that David would come back, but he came back so quickly, probably because of this catalyst paper.
What matters most to a pharmaceutical company? Nature is a new drug, and the birth of a new drug is closely related to research in the biological community. Therefore, the authoritative journal that has always represented the forefront of biological research has become the most concerned thing for pharmaceutical companies.
All pharmaceutical companies in the world have a department dedicated to this work. The first echelon searches for valuable papers in biological journals and passes them to the second echelon; the second echelon conducts research and writes a research report on each paper submitted by the first echelon, and makes a preliminary analysis of its value; the third echelon Tiers repeat research papers, and combine the second-tier reports to sort all papers by realizable value.
Each of these three echelons includes more than ten biological groups, and these people are all biological elites from the world's first-class universities.
The papers that are recognized by them as valuable will be sent to the head of the pharmaceutical company as soon as possible, and then the best communicators in the world will start lobbying work, or money or fame or other, they will give the owner of the paper any What they crave to expect to have the dissertation master's research in their hands and further translate into productivity.
Although the paper on the Nodding Catalyst will not be officially published until January next year, Li Zheng believes that the paper has been placed on the desks of the heads of these pervasive pharmaceutical companies as early as the first time it passed the review.
The receipt and review of correspondence to Microorganisms is recorded, and these can become evidence of patent applications. So whichever pharmaceutical company can take the lead in persuading the owner of the paper to grant the patent will gain an advantage.
"Li, I have submitted your patent application. I believe the patent document will be released soon. Also, your Chinese identity certificate may not be very useful in Hong Kong. Do you need me to help you re-establish your identity?" David said earnestly.
Li Zheng glanced at David with a half-smile, "No need, I will handle the residence permit in Xiangjiang myself." Li Zheng, who received the reply from "Microbes", naturally had the confidence to say this.
Microbiology, as one of the authoritative journals in biology, publishes papers on it, which can already represent a person's academic level. The Hong Kong government will not refuse a scholar with high attainments in biology to settle in Hong Kong.
If David is asked to apply for this identity certificate, in the eyes of outsiders, he may be tied to Roche, and Novartis, Ruihui, etc. will also have certain scruples, which is not conducive to him sitting on the ground and raising prices.
David looked at Li Zheng's clear eyes and laughed dryly, "Oh, dear Li, I really want to help you. Of course, if you want to do it yourself, I won't stop. If you need help, you Although, we are good friends, you have to remember that."
Rewind time to two days ago
David sat in the study with a stubborn face and eyes dazed. In the past few days, he has read almost all the reports about China in international newspapers. This country that has just opened its door to the world is too mysterious. China used to be brilliant, but now it is poor, backward, and has a different social system. David wondered how long it would take for such a country to get rich enough to form the market they needed, twenty years? Thirty years? Or fifty years
He is thirty-two years old now, and maybe he will retire when the Huaguo market is formed. In this case, his contribution will become the wedding dress of the next successor, which is unacceptable to David.
Deputy head of a department at Roche headquarters, this is a position that many people dream of, but David knows that there are two final outcomes for this position. One is to retire in the position of vice-minister; Departments, they may be able to move up if they are lucky, but they will always be behind the ass of those divisional CEOs.
And David's dream is to become the CEO of an important division, and then take the position of Mr. Robert. Roche's two most important divisions are Europe and North America. The head of Europe is Mr. Robert's confidant, and his ability is very good. Under his leadership, Roche's market share in Europe once ranked among the top three. The head of North America is a relative of a major shareholder of Roche, and his ability is also good.
Therefore, before meeting Li Zheng, he always thought that his dream could not be realized, and the Roche headquarters became his best choice.
But Li Zheng's "one billion market" made David realize that maybe he still has a chance. If this "billion market" is born in his hands, he will become a legend, not only for Roche, but for the entire industry.
Gamble or not? He struggled for two whole weeks until this paper signed by Li Zheng appeared in front of him. Roche has already investigated the new scholar as quickly as possible. When he saw the familiar address in the document, David was completely stunned.
This must be an instruction from God, and Li must be the noble man in his life! As soon as he reacted, David booked a flight back to Xiangjiang.
At the same time, he sincerely expressed to Mr. Robert that he wanted to open up new markets in Asia for the company. Therefore, when he walked out of the Roche building, David's identity has become the executive vice president of Roche Asia. This was five years earlier than his previous life.
"Ding dong" David's doorbell rang.
When David saw the person coming from the cat's eye, his entire face turned the color of pig liver! He hadn't figured out how to talk to Li Zheng yet, why did this person come!
"Dear Li, I suddenly remembered something very important. Did you publish a paper in "Microbiology", I... " Davy wanted to deepen his friendship with Li Zheng before starting to mention the paper. But now it was too late, so he had to speak bluntly.
"Ding dong, ding dong." The doorbell rang perseveringly, and David turned red with anger. Why didn't he ask where the switch that controlled the doorbell's power was when he moved in!
"Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong!"
"Oh, damn it!" David cursed in a low voice.
"Don't you open the door?" Li Zheng asked strangely.
David hurriedly put on a smile, "There are unknown people outside, there is no need to open the door."
"Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding dong" The people outside seemed very persistent.
Li Zheng couldn't help but said: "Let's open it, we two big men, what are we afraid of."
David's face was blue and white, and he heard the doorbell ringing in his ears, his face darkened, and he finally opened the door.
When people outside the door saw David, his face was not very good-looking.
"Mr. Andorio? Is there no one at Roche? Need their Asian executive vice president to come out in person?" He is dressed in traditional Chinese clothes and holds various tea leaves in his hands, which looks a bit funny when matched with his face, which is obviously different from that of the Chinese.
"Daniel, your dog's nose is still so sensitive. But you obviously haven't done enough homework, don't you know where this is?" David said with a sneer.
Daniel Watson shrugged, "Of course I know, this is Mr. Li Zheng's address." He pushed David away, turned and walked into the house.
"I'm really honored to live in the same community as Mr. Li Zheng, a person with profound academic attainments." As Daniel said, he glanced around. Of course, he gorgeously ignored Li Zheng, a "child" who was underage at first glance.
David let out a burst of laughter.
"Daniel, I think you made a mistake. It's unfortunate to tell you that this place you are standing is my house." David said the last three words loudly.
Daniel was stunned for a moment, then sneered, "David, your lie is too low-tech. Before I set off, I confirmed several times that the return address of "Microbes" is here. You won't tell me, you are Li Mr. Zheng."
He shook his head like an ancient Chinese reading, "David, the competition between Pfizer and Roche is not a day or two. Since we are all here, let's compete fairly."
Looking at the two who seemed to be fighting cocks ready to go to the battlefield at any time, Li Zheng touched his nose and said, "Excuse me, if there is no accident, the Mr. Li Zheng in your mouth should be me."
