After being fired, I became the light of medicine

Chapter 243 Spend as much as you want, the prince will pay for it all!
After receiving Zhang Yang's affirmative answer, Salaman and Prince Amir returned home on a special plane that afternoon.

On the luxurious A380 plane, Prince Salaman held a glass of expensive red wine in his right hand, with a smile on his face:
"Thirteenth brother, although this trip was short, it was worth it. I finally settled the matter and fulfilled your wish."

"Thank you, Sixth Brother."

Amir also smiled:

"But Sixth Brother, I'm really sorry to bother you this time. I originally thought that 20 billion US dollars should be enough, but I didn't expect that 50 billion US dollars would be enough to impress them in the end."

"It's just that the pocket money that father gave me over the years was only 20 billion US dollars. The remaining 30 billion US dollars... I will return it to you next time when father gives me pocket money."

Prince Salaman took a sip of red wine and waved his hand.

"Haha, brother, you don't have to pay it back, it's only 3 billion US dollars!"

"When we get back, I'll ask my people to dig a few more barrels of oil."

"Ah."

Amir nodded, and both of them had satisfied smiles on their faces.

……

In the office of Qingshan Pharmaceutical, Zhang Yang also showed a satisfied smile on his face.

Prince Salaman and Prince Amir came quickly and left quickly.

After the two parties reached a verbal agreement, a butler accompanying Prince Salaman stayed and signed a cooperation agreement with Qingshan Pharmaceutical.

This unilateral agreement is very simple. Prince Salaman privately commissions Tsingshan Pharmaceutical to develop a drug that can completely cure hemophilia, and report the research and development progress once a year.

What surprised him most was that Prince Salaman might really be a man of few words, not employing people he doubted, or a man of few words, or he might really be, as he said, believing that professional matters should be done by professionals.

The promised $50 billion in R&D expenses was not paid in the form of any milestone cooperation, but was directly paid in full.

After enthusiastically seeing off Prince Salaman, and receiving a special inquiry call from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, only Zhang Yang and Ren Xiaomin were left in the office.

"Zhang Yang, are you really sure you can develop a drug that can completely cure hemophilia?!"

Zhang Yang shook his head:
"no!"

"So you still agree to it?"

"You know, this is a genetic disease, it's not that easy to cure!"

Zhang Yang smiled and sighed:
“They gave too much!”

Ren Xiaomin was also stunned. This was a reason that could not be refused.

"Okay, Brother Ren, stop worrying about it and start setting up a special research and development team for hemophilia right away!"

"There are very few professional gene therapy drug R&D personnel in China. This time we have to recruit top gene therapy R&D personnel from around the world!"

"You can offer a higher salary. The expenses this time will all be paid by the prince, so there's no need to save money!"

“Let go of the flowers!”

……

Compared with traditional biopharmaceuticals, gene therapy drugs are clearly an emerging industry.

In 1972, due to the development of biomedicine, humans first proposed the idea of ​​using DNA to treat genetic diseases. This was the first time that humans proposed gene therapy drugs.

In 1990, mankind took a historic step forward in genetic medicine, and the first gene therapy drug was launched in clinical trials in the United States.

but,

It was not until 2012 that Europe made history by approving for the first time a gene drug specifically for the treatment of lipoprotein lipase deficiency caused by a genetic defect.

And in the United States it’s even longer!

It was not until 2017 that the United States officially approved the first gene drug for the treatment of "inherited retinal disease".

It is no exaggeration to say that gene therapy drugs have become the most advanced and hottest cutting-edge technology in the pharmaceutical field.

Of course, precisely because it is an emerging industry, research and development is difficult. Domestic pharmaceutical companies cannot even figure out traditional pharmaceutical manufacturing, let alone developing gene therapy drugs!
Therefore, currently, almost all genetic drug companies in the world that truly have R&D capabilities are foreign pharmaceutical companies, especially American companies.

Bluebird Technologies, USA.

Lin Yuesheng is a real Chinese.

More than ten years ago, he went abroad to the University of Delaware in the United States to study biochemistry and genetic engineering.

This is a less well-known public research university in the United States. Its chemical engineering, chemistry, and biology majors are ranked quite high in the United States.

After graduation, he originally planned to return to China to join a domestic genetic drug research and development company and make use of his professional knowledge.

But when I returned to China, I found that there were no real genetic drug research and development companies in the country. They were either doing abstract things or making empty promises.

In the end, he had no choice but to return to the United States and join a genetic drug research and development company called Bluebird Technologies.

In a flash, ten years passed.

In an office of nearly 100 square meters, Lin Yuesheng sat at his workstation, quietly looking at the computer screen in front of him.

After a while, he subconsciously opened his email and clicked on a read email.

This was the tenth time he opened his email and the tenth time he checked this letter.

After quickly scanning the contents of the email again, he finally exited the mailbox with satisfaction, and couldn't help but reveal a smile.

After a moment, he stood up and walked to a colleague who was not far from the desk, and whispered:
"Jamie, let's have dinner together after get off work tonight. It's my treat!"

"besides……"

He looked at another colleague not far away:
"And David, you come too. Haven't you always wanted to eat Argentinian barbecue? I'll treat you today!"

"Oh."

Jamie and David were Lin Yuesheng's two best colleagues in the company, and they were all a little surprised.

"Lin, what's wrong with you today? Did you get a raise? You actually took the initiative to invite us to dinner? And it was Argentinian barbecue?!"

"My god, Lin, forgive me for being blunt, I've known you for so many years and you've always been so stingy. You actually took the initiative to treat us to a meal. Has the sun risen from the west?"

"Fuck! I'm not as scary as you say! You'll know the reason later tonight!"

"Damn, did something really happen?"

……

After get off work, Lin Yuesheng and his good friends David and Jamie went to the most famous Argentine barbecue restaurant in Somerville, where Bluebird Technology is located.

After three rounds of drinks, Jamie was the first to speak:

"Lin, you can tell me now, right? What happened? Why did you suddenly think of treating us to a meal?!"

Lin Yuesheng no longer hid his true feelings at this moment. He put down the barbecue in his hand and a smile appeared on his face.

"David, Jamie, you are my best friends in the company and even in the United States."

"To be honest, I went to see HR today and I'm ready to resign and return home!"

Resign? !
Return to China?!
As soon as the words fell, Jamie and David, who were a little tipsy, were stunned for a moment, their faces full of disbelief.

The two of them hurriedly put down the barbecue in their hands and said in surprise:
"Lin, why are you suddenly thinking of resigning? Don't you want this job anymore? Or has something happened to you?"

"Yes, Lin! Didn't you say before that there are no gene therapy drug companies in China and there would be no suitable positions for you to go back? Why do you suddenly want to go back?" Lin Yuesheng smiled slightly:
"That was in the past. Guess which company I received an offer from?"

"Ah? Don't keep me in suspense. Which company is it?!"

"It's an offer from Qingshan Pharmaceutical, the most famous drug research and development company in our country! And, guess how much annual salary they offered?"

"How many?!"

"Five million dollars!"

"40 US dollars?!"

Jamie and David's eyes widened and they couldn't help but exclaimed.

You know, although genetic drug research and development is the hottest and most cutting-edge top technology in the biopharmaceutical industry, their company Bluebird Technologies is also a top genetic drug research and development company in the United States.

But they are not graduates from Ivy League universities, nor are they top R&D directors, so their annual salary is mostly between US$12 and US$15.

Only those experts and directors who have been in the industry for many years and have senior academic abilities can possibly get an annual salary of around 30!

And now!
Lin actually received an annual salary of 40 US dollars!

day!
Is there something wrong with this world?!

"Lin, 40 US dollars, isn't that three times higher than your current annual salary? I'm so envious that I'm drooling!"

"It's more than just drooling... I only make 13 yuan a year. It would take me three years of work to equal your annual salary!"

"Ha ha!"

Lin Yuesheng waved his hand gently, with a subtle yet pretentious smile on his face.

"Not three times, I calculated carefully, it's only 2.98 times higher than my current annual salary!"

"Fuck, you did that on purpose!"

Jamie and David looked at him with dissatisfaction and undisguised envy on their faces.

But soon, the two of them reacted:

"Lin, why did Qingshan Pharmaceutical suddenly want to poach you, and offer you such a high salary?"

At this point, Lin Yuesheng couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief and said slowly:

"I have discussed this issue with the HR of Qingshan Pharmaceutical, and their answer is - Qingshan Pharmaceutical is preparing to launch a project to develop a gene drug that can completely cure hemophilia, so they are now recruiting drug researchers with experience in hemophilia research and development all over the world!"

"I don't know where they got my information from, but after chatting for a while, I can be sure that the other party is indeed from Qingshan Pharmaceutical, so I think this reason is correct!"

"As for why they offer such high salaries... I think it's because we don't have enough professional talents in China, and the project is very urgent? So they can only poach professional R&D personnel like us overseas!"

“Without a generous annual salary, who would easily change jobs?!”

After the words fell, both of them nodded.

Indeed, the three of them are all members of the hemophilia gene drug research and development project team of Bluebird Technologies. They would occasionally hear that a drug development director of the company was poached, but without exception, they were offered a more generous salary.

only……

Did Qingshan Pharmaceutical give too much this time? !
40 million US dollars!

The two of them were sighing in their hearts, but Lin Yuesheng gradually felt a sense of sadness before parting.

He looked at Jamie and David again, his eyes showing deep reluctance, and he couldn't help but sigh:

"David, Jamie, I really can't bear to leave you. We have been working together for almost ten years, right?"

"After I return home this time, I'm afraid it will be hard for me to see you again. It will be hard for us to have a meal and chat together like we do now!"

Lin Yuesheng and David's words made the atmosphere in the bag silent, and the sadness of parting with good friends surged into the hearts of the three.

"Yes, Lin, I really don't want to leave you either. You are my first Chinese friend. I will never have the chance to listen to you talk about your Chinese glorious history again."

"Let's take a picture together before we go. I don't know when we'll meet again. What do you think, Jamie?"

David also sighed, and his eyes fell on Jamie, who was a little tipsy but hadn't said a word.

But at this moment, Jamie's expression suddenly became a little strange, and his speech became hesitant.

"Lin... I have a way to kill two birds with one stone?"

"Ok?"

Lin Yuesheng's face was full of confusion.

"Well... Actually, it's easy for you not to leave me. Look... Can you also help me contact Qingshan Pharmaceutical?"

"You know, I am also a professional who specializes in the research and development of 'hemophilia gene drugs' like you. I even have one year more experience in drug research and development than you..."

"Look, can you recommend me to Qingshan Pharmaceutical? I also want to go to China!"

"You want to go to China too?!"

Lin Yuesheng was shocked!

Going back by myself is like returning home, which is convenient, but what about Jamie in front of me? !

Quitting my job in the US to work in China?!
But before he could recover from the shock, David, who was originally a little worried, also reacted. After thinking for a moment, his eyes lit up!
"My god, Jamie, your idea is brilliant!"

"Yes, Lin! And me! I also have seven years of experience in the research and development of hemophilia drugs! I also want to go to Huaxia, and I also want to go to Qingshan Pharmaceutical!"

Lin Yuesheng was completely stunned. He never expected that a farewell dinner would turn out like this.

His expression naturally caught the eyes of Jamie beside him, and he said excitedly:
"Lin, thank you for your help!"

"You once said that your greatest dream is to contribute to China's 'genetic drug research and development industry'."

"What a coincidence. My biggest dream now is to contribute to the development of China's genetic medicine industry!"

"..."

……

The high-paying offer from Qingshan Pharmaceutical quickly swept the entire "genetic drug therapy" industry. The first people to receive the offer were naturally the Chinese people working in major overseas pharmaceutical companies.

After all, they have the highest possibility of returning home.

It was indeed just as Tsingshan Pharmaceutical thought. Since Tsingshan Pharmaceutical was already a world-renowned top pharmaceutical company, and this time it offered an annual salary that was nearly three times the industry average, it was easy for many hesitant and nervous senior drug research and development talents to finally make up their minds to return to China.

However, what surprised Ren Xiaomin and Zhang Yang was that with the high-paying offers, not only were Chinese people working abroad willing to come back, but they even received quite a few resumes from front-line R&D personnel of European and American descent.

In the office, Ren Xiaomin was both surprised and a little nervous.

"Zhang Yang, I didn't expect to receive so many resumes from American drug developers this time. They are all serious Americans who came all the way to China to work for us!"

"Their work experience fully meets our requirements. Do you think we should recruit them?"

Zhang Yang, on the other hand, seemed very confident and said with a smile:
"Why not? If they want to come, let them come!"

"That's right, I just want to take this opportunity to tell the world that we at Qingshan Pharmaceutical welcome all the top drug research and development talents in the world!"

"Besides, the expenses this time are paid by the prince, so spend as much as you want!"
