Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire novel Chapter 349

Chapter 349: Chapter 349: A Shift in the Situation

Jiang Cheng and the others left decisively, showing no attachment.

The people left behind looked bewildered.

"What is she talking about?"

"What does tomorrow have to do with now?"

"She’s probably just being mysterious."

"That’s definitely it."

After convincing themselves, the banquet came to an end.

None of the tricks to embarrass Hua Xia worked, and they were all holding back their frustration, planning to make things difficult during the equipment tour tomorrow.

By then, no matter how skilled Jiang Cheng was, there would be no tricks to play.

The bus transporting Hua Xia returned to the hotel, with only fifteen of the seventeen people getting off; Jiang Cheng and a security guard were not present.

The other parties didn’t notice Hua Xia, and Hua Xia wouldn’t remind them either.

At that moment, Jiang Cheng was in the private accommodation prepared by Rose, opening her computer.

She kept refreshing the most authoritative medical websites, waiting.

Refresh, refresh again.

The low-resolution big-head computer monitor buzzed as it operated.

"It’s here!"

With that word, Jiang Cheng saw the medical report published by George, along with the medication kept secret for four years.

The moment she saw the report published, a weight in Jiang Cheng’s heart lifted a bit.

George’s newly developed medication was specifically targeted at foreigners.

Most foreigners take antibiotics or painkillers, but their current medications contain a substance that can be addictive.

Before George left M, he was working on a research project for similar painkillers that don’t cause addiction.

And now, with the further perfection of drug laws, addictive drugs have officially been withdrawn and classified as prohibited substances.

This market gap needs to be filled, and George’s medication is undoubtedly the best choice, bringing massive benefits to the consortium behind it.

When the benefits are large enough, many things can change.

After finding what she wanted, Jiang Cheng printed a document, triumphantly heading back to the hotel.

On the ride, Jiang Cheng recalled her first meeting with George and how George later came out on his own and started working with Jiang Cheng.

In fact, under Jiang Cheng’s heavy investment, George’s drug development had already made breakthroughs but was kept secret by Jiang Cheng.

At the time, she didn’t have the power to protect George, and M’s medical laws were being litigated, with no outcome yet.

If George introduced the new drug then, it would undoubtedly provide new attack points for both sides in the lawsuit.

All things considered, keeping the drug under wraps was the best choice.

George didn’t mind; he was merely a pure genius wanting to research new drugs.

After succeeding in the first research project, George immediately devoted himself to the second project, which Li Chunxiang and others had suspected for three or four years without a successful result.

The car returned to the hotel, and Jiang Cheng got off, heading back to her room.

That night, the households in the pharmaceutical industry were destined not to be peaceful.

Yet the entire hotel remained very quiet until the next morning.

The speed of news spread is beyond imagination.

H party or other parties were awakened by door-knocking early in the morning.

Originally still grumpy from waking up, each party was dumbfounded upon receiving news from home or abroad.

"You mean Hua Xia developed a new painkiller?"

"No side effects?"

"Already passed all reviews?"

"How is that possible? That’s the most backward Hua Xia, and we haven’t developed it."

...

Once someone led, it wasn’t hard for the rest.

Each one vied to give Jiang Cheng apology gifts, which she accepted with a smile.

"President Jiang, about the new drug order?"

Upon hearing the first mention, Jiang Cheng replied in a very businesslike manner, "Please visit Hua Xia to negotiate; mainly I’m not President Jiang at the moment, just a team leader from Hua Xia."

"You know, we have tasks to accomplish."

In short, the gifts are given for free, and everyone starts from scratch.

Those present couldn’t do anything about Jiang Cheng; they couldn’t win an argument with her, with her many twisted logics.

Plus, she had the newest "weapon" in hand, leaving them temporarily restrained and unable to break out.

After the lively breakfast, Jiang Cheng and representatives from other parties were finally invited to tour the equipment, basically to inspect the goods.

As they exited the hotel, several high-class business cars were parked out front, adorned with Hua Xia’s national flag.

The contrast between then and now couldn’t be more obvious.

Jiang Cheng and her group calmly boarded the car upon invitation, conversing in dialect during the ride.

"Although the timing of Jiang Cheng’s drug release is good, it doesn’t necessarily guarantee winning that equipment."

"That’s right, we still need a second plan."

Everyone nodded, whispering and chattering.

The so-called second plan is to let the truly unforgettable, also part-time aerospace scientist, observe the equipment closely.

Jiang Cheng’s drug paved the way, merely reducing potential obstacles.

Ultimately, they would have to rely on themselves.

The vehicle reached the location, and the unforgettable scientist was a very young girl, looking harmless, acting as Jiang Cheng’s assistant.

As for the elderly man in the team, the apparent scientist, was being protected in the middle by everyone.

Truth mixed with falsehood, making it hard to discern.
