Afternoon time, hospital office.

Lin Jie, who had been immersed in the examination materials of conjoined twins with cranial brains, received a call from An Kexin.

"Jie, the thirty thousand yuan has already been transferred to Uncle Zhang."

"To Principal Pan, Dean Yuan, Dean Cheng, and some of your familiar teachers and colleagues at the Medical College and the Affiliated Hospital, I sent some seafood in your name."

"I also, based on Miaomiao's provided list, sent some seafood to some neighbors and friends, and Miaomiao's former massage instructors and colleagues."

"Along with Big Uncle's family, my father and some of my friends and relatives, in total, I sent out over five hundred pounds."

"There are about three to four hundred pounds left, which should be enough for this gathering."

"Jie, do you have any other friends who need seafood?"

Lin Jie thought for a moment and said, "I don't think so. Kexin, thank you, you've worked hard."

"Having a big company's general manager like you doing such trivial things, come to think of it, it feels quite fulfilling."

An Kexin's smug voice immediately came through the phone, "Having a girlfriend like me who can handle internal and external affairs, isn't your heart feeling good?"

Then, her gentle laughter followed, "Actually, I haven't done much."

"It was just a matter of speaking to have someone sort the seafood, package it, and then have the delivery company send it out."

"The dining manager at the Freshness Pavilion saw that this batch of seafood was pretty good and asked for Uncle Zhang's phone number. Maybe a cooperative relationship can be achieved."

Lin Jie echoed, "Hope the cooperative relationship can be successfully achieved..."

Not long after hanging up, Lin Jie welcomed a guest.

Seeing the unshaven Fu Xiuyuan, Lin Jie was somewhat surprised and couldn't help taking a few more looks at him.

His complexion was much darker than before, his face was also leaner, and his hair was messy, already growing to cover half an ear.

Although his clothing was still stylish and trendy, overall, there wasn't a trace of the elegant appearance of a young master.

Lin Jie couldn't help but ask, "You wouldn't have been playing survival training, spending a month in the wilderness, would you?"

"Almost!"

Fu Xiuyuan poured himself a glass of water, gulped it down, and said, "For the past month or more, I practically lived in the workshop, like an ordinary worker, working with engineers and researchers to debug production lines and improve production processes."

He excitedly said, "Expert Lin, I'll tell you a piece of good news."

"Now, the consistency test of the experimental drugs produced by the production line has reached about seventy-eight percent."

Lin Jie just snorted, disdainfully said, "Only seventy-eight percent?"

"Seeing you in this state, I thought you had already successfully piloted production, achieving a consistency of over ninety-eight percent."

The smile froze on Fu Xiuyuan's face, and this frustration was evident in his heart.

His expression fell, and he was hit hard, saying, "I forgot one thing!"

"You're a super genius, so your perspective on problems is different from us ordinary people."

"This progress, we are all thrilled and overjoyed."

Fu Xiuyuan's excitement diminished greatly, and he muttered, "Expert Lin, now, we are already on the right track."

"There are still two months, the entire company is very confident that we will definitely be able to increase the consistency to over ninety-eight within this time frame, and obtain production approval as soon as possible."

Lin Jie didn't continue on the topic of the generic drug, instead asked, "Fu Xiuyuan, are you aware of the incident at Kangning Hospital a few days ago?"

Fu Xiuyuan nodded, feeling rather annoyed, said, "Since the occurrence of the vegetable contamination incident, my family's old man's suspicion has greatly increased, and there have been significant changes in handling things and using people."

"This time, my father, who has never had any serious business, was suddenly given a major responsibility by the old man to handle the Kangning Hospital affair."

"This was supposed to be a perfect opportunity to prove himself, but it turned out to be messed up by my father."

Saying so, Fu Xiuyuan showed a bit of sarcasm, "Actually, this might be a good thing."

"Saves my father from always complaining that he's not doing as well as the other brothers, not because he lacks the ability, but because he never had the chance."

"Now that the cooked duck has flown away, my father should also give up and realize how much he truly weighs."

Regarding Fu Xiuyuan's father, Lin Jie was not in a position to comment, so he asked another question instead, "Does this matter have any impact on you?"

Fu Xiuyuan appeared unconcerned and said, "Just some questioning and mocking words."

"I'm already used to it and didn't take it to heart at all."

He chuckled, saying, "Nowadays, no matter how much they doubt or discuss, it doesn't affect me anymore."

His spirits rose again, saying, "Expert Lin, I have given up all other interests within the family to gain control over Zhengmao Pharmaceutical."

"Through these times of equity purchase and exchange, I have already obtained absolute control over Zhengmao Pharmaceutical."

"To a certain extent, Zhengmao Pharmaceutical is like my private company now. Of course, Four Seas Bank is the largest creditor."

Lin Jie gave an understanding "oh," and asked curiously, "You're so excited, does this mean you want to break away from the family?"

Fu Xiuyuan stayed silent for a while and said slowly, "I've been by the old man's side for nearly ten years, always labeled as the third-generation successor of the Fu Family by outsiders, and I often secretly rejoiced."

"However, now I thoroughly understand."

He self-mockingly said, "Titles and such are all vanity; what's truly yours is what you hold in hand."

"The title of the third-generation heir is not something designated or given by the old man; it's something you have to fight for yourself."

"The core enterprise of the Fu Family is the Four Seas Bank, tightly controlled by several uncles."

"Even the old man is somewhat helpless. I am well aware that I have no chance of entering the Four Seas Bank."

"Given this, I might as well take advantage of the title of the third-generation heir while it still holds some value..."

"Taking advantage of their disdain for Zhengmao Pharmaceutical, this struggling company, to leverage my title for more tangible benefits."

As Fu Xiuyuan revealed the inner workings of the Fu Family and his thoughts, Lin Jie felt Xiuyuan was overstepping given their shallow acquaintance.

Lin Jie made no comment, simply acting as a silent listener.

Fu Xiuyuan exhaled and continued, "Now, I've already gained control over Zhengmao Pharmaceutical, just waiting for next March or April for this generic drug to hit the market."

"As long as everything goes smoothly, the fundamentals of Zhengmao Pharmaceutical will improve significantly."

He said with a hopeful look, "By then, I won't have to worry about being choked by Four Seas Bank; other banks will be willing to provide credit."

"At that time, I can truly achieve independence and freedom."

"Expert Lin, without the detailed formula of the drug you provided, according to my plan, it would have taken another seven or eight years to achieve this goal."

"Thank you!"

Lin Jie couldn't help but say, "Listening to you, it seems like the Fu Family is a devil's den, with everyone inside eager to escape."

"But you should know, many people envy your background and would love to trade places with you."

Fu Xiuyuan chuckled lightly, "I guess this is the fortress effect; those inside want out, while those outside want in."

"Let's not talk about these disheartening things."

In a flattering tone, he said, "Expert Lin, if Zhengmao Pharmaceutical wants to grow and soar to become a renowned pharmaceutical company domestically and internationally, one generic drug is far from enough."

"I wonder..."

Lin Jie snorted and said, "Let's focus on doing this one generic drug well first."

Hearing this, Fu Xiuyuan's eyes lit up, and he excitedly asked, "Expert Lin, do you mean you have other good things?"

Lin Jie put on a stern face and criticized, "Fu Xiuyuan, stop looking for shortcuts."

"For a pharmaceutical company to achieve sustainable development, it must rely on its own strength, invest in research and development, produce a succession of new drugs, and achieve healthy growth."

"I understand this!"

Fu Xiuyuan said with a resentful expression, "It's just that the foundation Zhengmao Pharmaceutical accumulated was nearly squandered by the Jiang Family. We have been living off past gains in recent years."

"Once this generic drug is on the market, Zhengmao Pharmaceutical will see improvements in all aspects, and research and development investments will gradually increase."

With a cheeky smile, he said, "But, Expert Lin, you do understand, research in medicine always involves huge investments and can't yield results in a short time."

"So, Zhengmao Pharmaceutical still needs a windfall!"

Lin Jie recalled the information on the formulas of several other drugs in his mind.

However, the patent protection periods for these drugs are quite long, with the soonest expiring in four years.

"How many windfalls do you think can just fall from the sky? Focus on the present tasks and do them well first."

Fu Xiuyuan understood.

With the benefits of this generic drug collaboration yet to materialize, expecting Lin Jie to come up with new assets was almost impossible.

He assured with a pat on his chest, "Expert Lin, I won't say any more nice words. Just watch my performance in the future."

"It's nearly four in the afternoon now. How about I arrange a dinner tonight, and we enjoy a meal together?"

Lin Jie waved it off and declined, "No need."

"Tonight, I'm organizing a gathering and inviting some friends and students to attend; I'm occupied."

"In that case..."

Fu Xiuyuan's eyes darted, "Expert Lin, can I join this gathering you organized?"

"Most of your friends and students, if not renowned doctors now, will become famous in the future."

"As a small boss in the pharmaceutical industry, I must get to know and cozy up to them!"

Lin Jie glanced at him disdainfully, "With your attitude?"

Fu Xiuyuan touched his beard and chuckled, "Give me an hour tops, and I'll be a new man. I'll be back to find you at five thirty."

Before Lin Jie could respond, this guy dashed out of the office.

Regarding the development of pharmaceutical companies, Lin Jie was a bit skeptical.

The billions, even tens of billions, in R&D investments in new drugs have centralized pharmaceutical research and innovation in some large pharmaceutical companies.

How far Zhengmao Pharmaceutical could go in the future was something Lin Jie had no clue about.

His idea was to develop the value of the drugs he remembered and give Zhengmao Pharmaceutical a lift.

He could also earn a handsome income to support his medical research.

Lin Jie knew quite well that research in the medical field also burned through money quickly.
