Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!-Chapter 772 - 771 The Company is in Trouble
Chapter 772: Chapter 771 The Company is in Trouble
Ge Zhicheng’s request surprised Lew Hang.
Ge Zhicheng was the person who knew the most about rocket engines; if he could assist Xu Yang, then Xu Yang would easily be able to develop a rocket engine with a thrust of thousands of tons!
“That’s possible, but I need to ask Xu Yang for his opinion first!”
Then, Lew Hang dialed Xu Yang’s number and told him about the matter!
Xu Yang also showed a look of astonishment.
“Chief Engineer Ge? Isn’t this a bit unfair to him?”
...
While saying this, Ge Zhicheng snatched the phone from Lew Hang’s hands!
“No worries, I just want to join in developing a rocket engine with a thrust of a thousand tons!”
Xu Yang couldn’t believe it; Ge Zhicheng’s attitude seemed to have undergone a significant change. Clearly, this new energy source had given him a great shock.
From personnel to facilities, and even technical aspects, Chief Engineer Ge was quite familiar with them all. If he could become his assistant, then his research progress would greatly accelerate!
Xu Yang agreed without hesitation.
Xu Yang agreed, and Ge Zhicheng was also very pleased!
After saying this, Lin Yi left Lew Hang’s office and reported on the situation of Laboratory 2 to Xu Yang.
At that moment, some of his old colleagues came to see him.
“Chief Engineer Ge, we’re all over fifty years old, and age has taken its toll, making it a bit hard to keep up. Perhaps, it’s time for all of us to resign, to give the younger people a chance to showcase their talents.”
Ge Zhicheng was not surprised; he had been thinking the same thing!
“How many people are leaving?” Ge Zhicheng asked again.
“87 people!”
“Fine, I agree, but before leaving, there’s one more task to do!”
“Chief Engineer Ge, don’t worry. Us old guys will make sure everything is taken care of properly!”
“Good, that relieves my mind. Gather everyone! Let’s assist Engineer Xu together and make sure the work on that 1000-ton thrust rocket engine is done well!”
“1000 tons?”
“Can we also be a part of this project?”

Ge Zhicheng knew these people were on the same level as him, all fighting for the aerospace industry.
Who wouldn’t want to be a part of a thousand-ton thrust rocket engine?
Immediately afterward, the door of Laboratory 2’s research cabin was pushed open, and Ge Zhicheng, along with more than eighty researchers, filed in!
Tian Hongxuan saw this scene and immediately went to greet them; he had thought Ge Zhicheng was coming to make trouble!
“What brings you here?”
“We’re going to see Engineer Xu!”
Kyoto’s Huakang Pharmaceutical Group was one of them!
Located in the southwest of Kyoto, it was a factory with an area of over 100,000 square meters, with a modern facility employing more than 5,000 people!
Owning such a large factory in a city like Kyoto, where land prices are extremely high, showed the strength of Kanghua Pharmaceutical!
In the four cardinal directions of this factory, there was a six-story U-shaped building at each.
To the east of the factory stood a two-story building, around two hundred square meters in size.
But their annual income would be completely consumed!
This company was the cancer drug research center established three years ago—Kanghua Pharmaceutical!
There are a plethora of medical devices here, all of which were shipped from overseas and are extremely expensive!
In this laboratory, there are eleven scientists, all of whom are the finest anti-tumor drug research experts from the Great Agrarian Nation.
In one of the second-floor laboratories, a young technician was whispering with Song Zhe.
“Director Song, I’ve heard that your company has recently encountered some problems and might even go bankrupt!”
However, Song Zhe turned a deaf ear and continued with his experiment!
Seeing that Director Song didn’t respond, the assistant could only obediently close his mouth!
When Song Zhe finished his experiment on a mouse, he was stunned.
About five minutes later, the results of the test finally came out!
He raised his eyebrows in a single motion, this time, he had not succeeded!
Over three years, their research group conducted at least twelve thousand different studies of small molecules, and each attempt had ended in failure!
The development of targeted cancer drugs typically requires three steps!
1. Identify the target and drug molecules, where the target is a specific molecule that functions in the body to produce effects. And the drug molecule has to be selected from tens of thousands of molecules, which is immensely difficult, with a very high failure rate.
2. Early clinical trials. Once the drug molecule is identified, it’s time for in vivo and in vitro tests. If it does not succeed, then it’s back to square one!
3. Clinical trials, this stage not only costs a fortune but also has an extremely long R&D cycle, ranging from several months to several years. At this point, the likelihood of survival is slim.
Overall, the development cycle for targeted drugs is long, the success rate is low, and the cost is high, with the market value of a drug being around ten billion.
Song Zhe’s team had successfully found two small molecules, but both had failed, so they had to start all over again.
He poured himself a cup of coffee, took a short rest, then began the next research session!
Song Zhe’s assistant had prepared all the materials and then addressed everyone.
“Director Song, listen to me, the information I have is absolutely reliable, our senior engineer has found an overseas pharmaceutical research company!”
Song Zhe was thinking when he was interrupted by his assistant, Liu Li.
“Liu, where did you hear this gossip from?”
At Song Zhe’s words, Liu Li’s interest was piqued, and she inquired mysteriously.
“Director Song, don’t get me wrong. My uncle is the CFO of Huakang Pharmaceutical Group, and I heard it by chance.”
Liu Li’s uncle was the financial manager of Huakang Pharmaceutical Company, which Song Zhe was well aware of, or else Liu Li wouldn’t have become his assistant!
However, Song Zhe felt that this couldn’t be true.
Huakang Pharmaceutical specialized in manufacturing antibiotics. Three years ago, his superior contacted him wanting to research a new type of cancer treatment drug.
He had even taken out a financial report for Song Zhe, claiming a net profit of two billion a year!
Ren Dayuan had also assured Song Zhe that, as long as he focused on his research, Huakang Pharmaceutical had enough resources to support him for ten years!
Song Zhe agreed readily, confident that in ten more years, he would be able to develop the cancer drugs!
“Director Liu, I advise you to find a job quickly, otherwise, you might get fired!”
“Liu, you’re just bored. Hurry up and set up a machine for me, I have to start the experiment!”
Hearing Song Zhe’s doubt, Liu Li could only stand up and start organizing the equipment.
Song Zhe took just five minutes to start his experiment again!
In the chairman’s office of Huakang Pharmaceutical!
At this time, Ren Dayuan looked deeply worried.
On the other side, the head of the marketing department was seething with anger!
