After dinner, Feng Yi sat in the lounge of the basement laboratory, looked through some information, and asked Xiao Wu some questions about Xiao Ji and Xiao Geng.
He was previously shocked by the relationship between the Original Laboratory and his aunt, but he didn't know much about Xiaoji and Xiaogeng. The information about them in the tablet was also limited, with only photos and partial introductions.
Xiao Ji and Xiao Geng are about the same age as Xiao Wu. They are a girl and a boy, and they serve as the chief laboratory manager and president of the "Ancestor Factory" respectively.
"Them." Xiao Wu adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose. When facing Feng Yi at close range, he was still used to wearing glasses, which made him feel more secure.
Speaking of Xiaoji and Xiaogeng, Xiaowu's words were not full of enthusiasm. "A long time ago, the three of us were actually in a competitive relationship. It was not until we each decided on our own direction that things eased. We are still working together happily. Oh, they are even happier and have even got married."
Feng Yi raised his eyebrows. He wanted to ask if there was any emotional dispute behind this, but it was obvious that Xiao Wu was not interested in talking about that. He even expressed regret for not being able to compete for the position of chief laboratory director. "During the training observation period, my comprehensive ability was stronger and my special skills were not good, so I was assigned to the position of private doctor. Xiao Ji's comprehensive ability was slightly weaker, but her special skills were excellent, so she won the position of chief laboratory director. Xiao Geng was worse than the two of us in research and academics, but he was better at management. Ms. Feng finally decided the positions of the three of us based on our results during the observation period.
"But there is a saying that I need to let you know, 'The chief laboratory director is permanent, but the president is transient.' Although the person in charge of the Ancestor Company is generally not easily changed, you must know that compared to the company's president and vice president, the chief laboratory director is more important. This position leads the projects of the core laboratory, and the core laboratory is the brain and heart of the Ancestor Company!"
Feng Yi nodded to show his understanding.
The original company originated from the core laboratory, and the core laboratory has too many secrets that must be kept in the hands of one's own people. At the same time, it must produce results, so multi-faceted assessment and observation is necessary.
Xiao Wu is indeed more suitable for the position of a private doctor.
"Nowadays, the composition of this giant Ancestor Factory is even more complicated. But no matter how complicated it is, the company is still controlled by the couple. You can also say that it is in the hands of their own people. You don't have to worry about this, boss." Xiao Wu said.
Feng Yi had seen the first half of this sentence in the information on his tablet. The attitude of the Ancestor Company towards investors and partners was that investment was acceptable, and cooperation was also accepted, but there were other contractual arrangements, and outsiders did not have much control over the company.
As for the second half of the sentence, whether they are “our own people” and whether we can trust them, we still have to meet the two people in person to confirm.
In order to avoid some trouble, Xiaoji and Xiaogeng did not use the surname Feng. However, whether or not the surname Feng had anything to do with trust, Feng Yi would not label the two differently because of this.
In Yangcheng, under the night sky, a low-key private car drove into the city.
Sitting in the driver's seat and the front passenger seat were a man and a woman, both about the same age as Xiao Wu.
"What kind of person is this boss? You have a lot of communication with Xiao Wu. Has he ever said anything?" Xiao Ji, who was sitting in the passenger seat, flipped through several electronic documents in his hand and closed them. It was rare for him to be so restless.
Before Feng Yi makes a decision, they cannot contact Feng Yi. Even though Feng Yi has a certain degree of discussion on the Internet, they know that none of these things on the surface can be counted.
When Xiao Geng mentioned this question, he was also very confused. "Xiao Wu's initial impression of this boss was that he was smart, wise, and calm. But when he talked to him again not long after, he found that his impression of this boss had changed. He said that he was complicated and contradictory."
"Why is this happening?"
"I don't know. He doesn't want to say too much. Maybe we can find out after we meet the new boss."
A moment of silence.
Xiaoji sighed, "Teacher once said, don't lie to them easily. Even if you have excellent acting skills, they can still easily see through your inner thoughts."
"Their race's special abilities?"
"Maybe."
"I didn't intend to fool him. Anyway, our interests are connected with this boss's. If we don't betray him, he won't have any bad feelings towards us."
"I really want to see how many secrets are hidden in the enhanced version of Venom! It must be very challenging!"
"Didn't Xiao Wu say that this person might be providing an upgraded version? The toxicity is very different from the previous one. It is more complex and more violent, and it will be much more difficult to study."
Although they said it was difficult and challenging, there was anticipation and excitement in their eyes.
One is for the research materials that will be available soon.
One is for the huge interest system in the future.
Not long after, the car drove into a residential area, and soon after another car drove out and headed towards Cuihu District.
The driver was Xiaojia, who picked up the two people at the designated location.
Xiaojia knew that these two were new colleagues, but their nature was actually different from the others, and their surname was not Feng.
An hour later, the two arrived at Feng Yi's residence. After greeting the housekeeper, they met their new boss behind the scenes in the underground laboratory.
Xiao Geng's face was full of enthusiasm. He strode towards Feng Yi, stretched out his hands and shook hands with Feng Yi. "Hello, it's our first meeting. I am Yue Gengyang, the president of the 'Ancestor Factory', codenamed Geng! You can just call me Xiao Geng! It's my great honor to serve you!"
He looked at Feng Yi with burning eyes, as if he was looking at a golden statue emitting golden holy light.
Feng Yi looked at the man in front of him who was a few years older than him, already the president of a large company, and a successful person worth hundreds of billions in the eyes of the world. He couldn't call him "Xiao Geng" directly, and calling him "brother" was not enough. Calling him "Mr. Yue" seemed distant, so he just said, "Hello."
His gaze shifted from Xiao Geng to another lady next to him.
Xiao Ji stared at Feng Yi with burning eyes. She moved her fingers hanging at her side, as if she wanted to touch his cheeks and pry open his fangs to see. But she finally restrained herself and reached out to shake Feng Yi's hand tightly:
"Hello! I am Ji Fan, the general manager of the Ancestor Laboratory!"
Feng Yi controlled his facial expression and didn't want to be frightened by the enthusiasm of these two people.
I have to say, Feng Yi is really intimidating when he pretends.
When his expression was less serious, even if his eyes did not narrow, they were still filled with cold ferocity. He appeared to be exceptionally calm, indifferent, and somewhat sharp, as if he could see through people and had everything under control.
Therefore, Xiaoji and Xiaogeng's first impression of Feng Yi was similar to Xiaowu's at that time.
Doctor Xiao Wu, who was standing behind Feng Yi: "..."
That’s right, after spending some time together, Xiao Wu also got to know Feng Yi’s true character: beneath that seemingly cold and sharp face, there’s actually a bit of a silly side to him!
When Xiao Wu confirmed this, he was shocked again. But he quickly adjusted himself and made appropriate changes to the way he interacted with Feng Yi.
But he didn't plan to tell Xiaoji and Xiaogeng about this.
The two sides finally met, and due to limited time, they quickly got down to business and talked about the current development status of the Chizu company and the solution to the venom.
From the first glance, Feng Yi paid attention to the subtle changes in the emotions of the two people. The emotions of the two people fluctuated greatly, but they were all relatively positive, without any negative or malicious information. The first impression was not bad.
After listening to them for a while, Feng Yi also raised his own question, "I don't know if the venom gland will change again. If it changes later, will it affect your plan?"
As the project leader of the core laboratory, Xiaoji said: "Your venom gland mutation is now close to being stable. Even if it changes again, it will be modified on the original basis and will not change its nature. We have already considered these issues and have our own ways to deal with them. Please rest assured!"
"Well, you guys continue."
Xiaoji and Xiaogeng continued to discuss the follow-up research and sales plans of Venom.
According to their plan, they will carry out initial processing on the venom provided by Feng Yi. Feng Yi's venom is an upgraded version, which may take some time, but not too long, as these laboratories have experience.
The initially processed mixture is still claimed to be a byproduct mixture produced during the research of broad-spectrum anti-snake venom drugs.
The research on broad-spectrum anti-snake venom is not a gimmick or a shield; it was the goal set when the laboratory was founded.
After the abnormal climate period, the venom of some surviving venomous snakes changed to varying degrees, with most of them becoming more toxic. Moreover, after the abnormal climate period ended, some new species of highly venomous snakes were discovered, and the original anti-snake venom serum may not be effective.
Xiaoji: "From you, we see the hope of success for broad-spectrum anti-snake venom drugs!"
Feng Yi: I understand. It means to get more venom.
"The venom entered the laboratory. After the first batch was processed, it was tentatively named 'Progenitor Y1'."
Feng Yi interrupted: "Wait, 'Ancestor Y1'?" When he looked at the information, there were no numerical labels at that time.
Xiaoji explained: "Considering that the venom you provided is more complex than that of Ms. Feng back then, we will try multiple treatment methods, and the mixture will be sold in batches. The specific number of batches will depend on the experimental data."
Feng Yi understood and continued to listen to them.
Xiao Geng said, "The crowdfunding price of the original S mixed solution trial pack was 10,000 yuan at that time. For the original Y series, we still plan to sell the trial pack first, and the price will still be based on the price of that year. Here, boss, do you have any questions?"
Feng Yi has it!
"Trial Pack?"
"Of course. Although it was only one milliliter of the initially processed mixture and the concentration was diluted, the original S was sold for 10,000 yuan, but its value is far more than 10,000 yuan. It is behind many special medicines. And the crowdfunding was only held that one time. After that, the company never sold it to the public through crowdfunding again. Even if the price on the black market was 1 million, you might not be able to buy a bottle. Do you think... the price is too high?"
"No."
Feng Yi himself used to pay 10,000 yuan for each mouse he caught, so it was reasonable that the precious experimental materials were more expensive. He was surprised by the "trial pack" Xiao Geng mentioned. It turned out that the 11,000 yuan small bottle was just a trial pack. So, there was not much real effective substance in that bottle
Xiao Geng saw that Feng Yi was skeptical about this sales method, so he continued to explain, "This kind of trial pack is actually equivalent to selling it to some companies or teams that have cooperated with us in a special flash sale way, so that we can choose the more sincere partners from them for subsequent cooperation. It can also be selling research materials or it may be cooperative research."
"Will there be many partners?" Feng Yi asked.
"Yes. Your great-aunt, Ms. Feng, once said that the original hunting function of venom is not very useful in peacetime, but its value can be realized in another way, a higher level of value. However, there are too many precious ingredients in it, and the capabilities of a company or a few company teams are limited. Let more people participate, let the world participate, blend interests, complement each other's advantages, and create more groundbreaking and beautiful results. That's a feast! Isn't it?"
Feng Yi understood what his aunt meant.
The secret that cannot be revealed can exist in every corner of the world in another way, which can better reflect its value. It existed!
When only one flower blooms it is not spring, but when all flowers bloom the garden fills with spring.
Get more people involved, get the world involved…
Although I feel strange that I have been divided up by this group of scientists, but...
Forget it, just do the research. You can make a profit yourself and benefit mankind at the same time.
But what he is more curious about now is which awesome team or laboratory in the world will be the first to produce results
What kind of "miracle medicine" will it be
Blood-related? Blood-related? Neurological
Or some other difficult-to-conquer disease
Xiao Wu had been paying attention to Feng Yi's mentality, worried that Feng Yi would feel offended and uncomfortable because of this incident. Just as he was about to try to comfort him, he saw the smug look on Feng Yi's face.
Xiao Wu, Xiao Ji, and Xiao Geng who carefully observed Feng Yi said: "…"
