Chapter 7:

The eighties and nineties were the most glorious peak of Hong Kong.
At this time, the total GDP of a small Xiangjiang is equivalent to 20% of the entire China mainland.
At this time, the richest man in Asia is still just showing off. The boat king Bao family, the sand king Huo family, and the generation known as the "legendary" 30 years later are still flourishing.
Most importantly, Novartis, Pfizer, Roche, Sanofi, Merck, and GlaxoSmithKline, these world-ranked pharmaceutical companies all have offices in Xiangjiang, which takes one or two months to send a letter to the mainland Said, Xiangjiang is really too convenient.
It's just that Xiangjiang in 1982 is still under the control of the British Empire. It is almost impossible for a minor without a guardian to get a pass to Xiangjiang. What's more, even if you are in Xiangjiang, you have to start all over again when you are unfamiliar in life. This is not a simple matter.
"What do you want to do so much as a little kid, you, you just need to study hard. After entering university, you will have nothing to worry about!" Zhou Sitian poked his brother on the head and patted the back seat of the car. Come on, no one is there now, no one will laugh at you."
Li Zheng was dumb, because she thought she didn't take the back seat of the car because she was afraid that her classmates would see it. He... he can't overcome his own shame!
Resigned to sit on it, Dongliu Town was five or six kilometers away from Qinghe Town, so I couldn't really walk back.
Passing through an alley, the brothers and sisters saw a person standing in front of the house from a distance, with his head down and a cigarette in his mouth.
Li Zheng got out of the car and glanced over the person's body. Seven or eight cigarette butts were scattered on the ground. It seemed that he had been waiting for a long time.
"Uncle Zhang?" Zhou Sitian called out hesitantly.
Zhang Bingkun suddenly raised his head and saw Li Zheng and Zhou Sitian, throwing the cigarette on the ground and stepping on it.
"Sweet girl, Xiao Zheng..." He opened his mouth, as if he didn't know what to say. His eye sockets are a little red with many red blood streaks, his beard has not been shaved for several days, and his mouth is covered with fine stubble.
"Uncle Zhang, go sit down at home." Zhou Sitian said as she stepped forward to open the door.
"No...no." Zhang Bingkun shook his head, "I came to see Brother Li. Take me to see him." Sadness was suppressed in his voice.
Li Zheng lowered his head to be an ostrich. What he doesn't want now is to meet the acquaintances of the original owner, especially this kind of thing that is not easy to fool at first glance. But Zhou Sitian obviously did not receive his signal.
"Xiao Zheng, take a trip with Uncle Zhang. I will prepare dinner." Zhou Sitian turned around and entered the house without waiting for Li Zheng to object.
Li Zheng...
Li Zheng calmed himself up and looked up to Zhang Bingkun with a polite smile, "Uncle Zhang, let's go."
Zhang Bingkun nodded, and the two of them walked silently towards the cemetery of Qinghe Town.
Not long after he was buried, there were still flowers and wine glasses in front of Father Li's tomb, but the flowers had faded and the wine in the wine glasses had evaporated.
"Pumping", the moment Zhang Bingkun saw the tombstone, before Li Zheng could speak, he knelt heavily on the ground, his knees collided with the stone slabs, and there was a clear collision sound.
"Brother Li, I can't help you..."
It turns out that Zhang Bingkun and Li’s father have a deep connection. Zhang Bingkun ran the black boat and walked along the Shenzhen, Zhuhai, and Xiangjiang lines. During the severe crackdown a few years ago, he was discovered by the maritime police when he was running the black boat at night and abandoned When the boat jumped into the sea, Father Li rescued him. In order to help him, Li's father misappropriated the production team's materials. Although it was only a matter of two bundles of gauze, Yang Sheng caught the pain and resigned from the position of the production team leader.
"I don't know, I really don't know that my sister-in-law is also on the boat, otherwise I won't drive that boat." Ironically, Father Li rescued Zhang Bingkun, but Mother Li left with Zhang Bingkun’s boat. Qinghe Town, went to Xiangjiang.
After learning of this, Zhang Bingkun never boarded Li's door again until he heard the news of Li's father's death.
"Uncle Zhang, sorrow." From Zhou Sitian's mouth, it can be heard that Li's mother is not a person who is comfortable with firewood, rice, oil and salt. She and Father Li have no common language, and her departure will be sooner or later.
Zhang Bingkun didn't go to Li's house to eat after paying homage to his father. He gave Li Zheng a large sum of money. Li Zheng counted three or four thousand. It was in Xiangjiang, which was also the salary of many people for half a year.
Li Zheng shook his head and smiled bitterly. Now the route and travel expenses are all. Could it be that God also hinted at him? Suppress this absurd idea. Zhou Sitian is already in the third year of high school. She has good grades and she can't be so selfish.
Even so, the idea of ​​going to Xiangjiang has already been planted in Li Zheng's heart, and it will take root as soon as the time is right.
This day, which happened to be the weekend, last night Li Zheng stayed up all night and wrote a paper on "Dannotine Drug Manufacturing Catalyst". But Noordin is a conventional medicine for blood pressure control in the world. Only in Europe and North America, its annual sales are close to 5 billion U.S. dollars, and its supply exceeds demand.
What restricts its supply is the lack of production capacity, but the main ingredient of Noordin is a compound crystal extracted from animal liver. Often only a few tens of grams of crystal can be extracted from animal liver of tens of catties, and the conversion rate is extremely low.
The catalyst mentioned in Li Zheng's paper can increase the extraction rate of crystals in animal liver by 30%-50%, which means that under the same raw materials and production conditions, the output of Notting will be It can increase by 30%-50%, which translates into sales of nearly 2 billion US dollars, which is enough to drive any pharmaceutical predator crazy.
After Li Zheng finished writing, he carefully folded the letter paper, put the stamp in the envelope, and pressed it under the pillow. This is his original capital.
However, his dream of sleeping for a day was soon broken.
Li Chaoyang's bluffing sound rang outside the door, and not long after, Li Zheng only felt a pair of cold hands reaching into his bed.
Li Zheng opened his eyes suddenly.
"Hi, Li Zheng, good morning." Li Chaoyang smiled innocently.
Good...good girl! The experimental dog also has a temper!
Getting up, brushing his teeth, and washing his face, Li Zheng was full of low air pressure, but Li Chaoyang seemed to be unaware, and tried to talk in Li Zheng's ear about the official returning to his hometown.
High official, where's the high official, even if there is a high official in charge of him. When he gave up his work in the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory and returned to China in his previous life, the President of the State Council also met him personally and praised him as a pillar of other countries!
When they were pulled into the auditorium, it was already full of people. The townspeople stretched their necks and looked around. Many women were still holding babies who hadn’t been born for a few months. The babies’ crying sounded all over the place. The auditorium reverberated.
"In this environment, why do you hold your baby?" Li Zheng frowned and said, as there are more people, there are more bacteria. This is very dangerous for children with weak immunity just a few months after birth.
"I don’t want to get into the style of Xie Wenjie. It was the first batch of college students in Qinghe Town who got the best in the exam. Now in the Ministry of Health of Huajing, this time I’m here to talk about a project with the leaders. When it's done, our entire Qinghe Town will be like Huaying Town, where everyone lives in a building!" Li Chaoyang said happily.
Ministry of Health? project? A thought flashed through Li Zheng's mind, his eyes flashed, whether it was what he had guessed... I would know soon.
"Boom, dong, dong," the big gong sounded, and the county and town leaders took the stage one by one. Among the gray-haired old people, a tall young man appeared to be particularly eye-catching. Before Li Zheng thought about who this person was, Li Chaoyang was excited. The answer has been given.
"Xie Wenjie, it's Xie Wenjie!" The fanatical appearance was similar to the appearance of a later girl when she saw an idol.
On the stage of the auditorium, the county leader tapped his horn and began to speak.
"Family folks, I invite you to come here today to tell you two good news. First, we thank the department. We are back. We thank the department who went out from Qinghe Town. Now we are working in the Ministry of Health of Huajing. It is Qinghe Town. I’m proud of it! Second, we thank you for bringing a big project to my hometown! A foreign company’s investment, Screw, is called Screw, right? Although the name of this company is a bit strange! But it is indeed a big company. ! If this project is successful, our Qinghe Town’s economy will go to the next level!"
There was a round of applause in the auditorium.
"Screw... are the names of big foreign companies so weird?" Li Chaoyang whispered.
The corner of Li Zheng's mouth twitched, screw, it's Roche, a Swiss pharmaceutical company, which has been ranked in the top ten in the global pharmaceutical company rankings. A few years before his sudden death in his previous life, Roche also squeezed in because of its advantage in cancer drugs. Ranks among the top three global pharmaceutical companies.
Coincidentally, it was Roche who worked most closely with Li Zheng in his previous life. He remembered... his partner, David Andorio, who is also the executive vice president of Roche Asia in the future, seemed to be in Xiangjiang and lived with him. He called the darkest "exile" in his life.
"Hello folks, I am very happy to be back to Qinghe Town again. Roche is the largest pharmaceutical company in Switzerland and one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world. It is one of the world's top 500 companies. Roche visited Yantian County this time to find a suitable one. This is one of the most important projects of the Ministry of Health this year. It is also a great opportunity for the entire Yantian County. As a native of Qinghe Town, I certainly hope that Qinghe Town will be selected in Queping. But this is inseparable. Help from the folks..."
Li Zheng stopped listening to what Xie Wenjie said later. He searched in his mind. He did not remember that Roche had a pharmaceutical factory in Shenzhen. Either it was closed, or the project was not successful at all, Li Zheng thinks that most of them may be the latter.
