Brand-new stacks of American hundred-dollar bills are piled on the table, which looks very visually impactful and shocking.
Ian Wilmut looked away from the banknotes and frowned at the Easterner opposite, "I will never betray the secrets of the institute, don't even think about it."
Qin Yi sighed and looked at the stubborn old man opposite.
"Whether it's threats or bribes, it's useless." Ian Wilmut said stubbornly, "I will never give in."
"Doctor, I am not a commercial spy." Qin Yi said sincerely, "I am not interested in the data and intelligence of your research institute at all."
"Walter?" Ian Wilmut was a little surprised, then lowered his head and looked at the banknotes again, "Then what does this mean?"
"I'm here to cooperate with you." Qin Yi emphasized again, "It's just a pure business cooperation."
Ian Wilmut was very surprised, "I am just a scientist and don't understand business. You have found the wrong person."
"What I value is your business ability." Qin Yi smiled slightly, "The Roslin Institute has recently launched a new project, and it is led by you."
"I think this technology is very promising, so I want to talk to you in detail."
Ian Wilmut immediately became alert, "What do you know?"
"A little bit." Qin Yi smiled lightly, "Cloning biotechnology is a blue ocean with very broad market prospects. Mr. Ian Wilmut, you are taking an important step and a historic step."
“From a sheep to a cow, and even to primates, science is the result of accumulating breakthroughs and upgrading step by step.”
Ian Wilmut stood up with a very ugly expression on his face, "Where did you know that?"
Many research institutes are engaged in cloning biotechnology, but everyone is keeping it secret.
This is to prevent competitors from spying on which stage they have entered, and also to prevent the leakage of certain key technologies.
Judging from the information disclosed by the other party, he is obviously very aware of the institute's confidential projects.
"How I know is not important." Qin Yi said with a smile, "I'm not here to steal secrets, I just want to participate in the research and development of this great technology."
"You have the technology, I have the money, let's work together, that's all."
Ian Wilmut was very puzzled, "Then you can go directly to the institute to negotiate. Why did you come to me?"
"I'm not familiar with the director of the institute, and I don't like dealing with bureaucrats." Qin Yi said lightly, "I came to you directly because you are the person in charge of the project, although you are not deeply involved.
Specific research, but the project is still in your name."
"I participated in the guidance work." Ian Wilmut immediately corrected Qin Yi's statement.
"Okay, even if you participate." Qin Yi nodded, "I believe you have sufficient project management capabilities, are good at dealing with bureaucrats, and understand technology at the same time. This is the most rare thing."
Ian Wilmut's expression finally softened, "This project is a collaboration between the institute and PLL Medical Company. It is difficult to convince both parties to join a third party."
"Difficulties are meant to be overcome." Qin Yi took out another bundle of money and put it on the table. "Scientific research is very expensive. One more participant means one more risk-taking partner."
"This..." Ian Wilmut shook his head, "It's not that simple."
"It doesn't matter. Let's take our time in convincing PLL Company." Qin Yi smiled nonchalantly, "I still have something to ask for your help."
"What's up?"
"Several of my bosses are very eager to participate in the research and development of this great technology, and they are particularly anxious and can't wait for negotiations with the research institute and PLL Company." Qin Yi said carefully, "
So I think we can adopt some alternative methods.”
"For example?" Ian Wilmut had a bad premonition.
"For example, let's set up a research institute first, put it under your name, and then recruit some technical staff to come over and work on a project ourselves." Qin Yi looked at Ian Wilmut with a smile.
"Do your own project?" The corners of Ian Wilmut's mouth twitched. "Science is not a house game. It cannot be done by just looking for some people. This is simply not possible."
"It doesn't matter, I don't plan to rely on them to make it, as long as I can pretend that I can make it." Qin Yi said nonchalantly, "The boss doesn't understand this."
Ian Wilmut has questions all over his face.
"At the same time, please ask the doctor to explain to those bosses some cutting-edge information, development prospects, and application directions in the field of biotechnology." Qin Yi said seriously, "Explain more about the bright future and less about technical difficulties and difficulties. Do you understand?
"
Of course Ian Wilmut understands, and he often does this when applying for project funding from above.
But now what the other person said doesn’t feel right.
"Are you committing fraud?" Ian Wilmut asked tentatively.
"No, these are some investment techniques." Qin Yi corrected the other party's wrong statement.
"Sorry, I think you have found the wrong person." Ian Wilmut refused.
Qin Yi pushed the banknotes on the table and said, "This money is your reward."
Ian Wilmut struggled internally, then shook his head, "No, my morality does not allow me to do such a thing."
"The newly established research institute will hire you as its chief technical consultant, with an annual salary of one million pounds." Qin Yi said slowly.
Ian Wilmut sat up straight, "What else do you need from me?"
Qin Yi greatly appreciated Mr. Wilmut's performance in adhering to ethics, and then discussed the PPT method with him in detail.
"Explain to your boss more about the progress of cloning technology and related technical ideas for cloning primates. It would be best if you can make a timetable."
"Then let's talk more about the technological development of single organ cloning and its future application prospects, do you understand?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "OK." Mr. Wilmut nodded and said happily that there was no problem at all.
"Also." Qin Yi added, "Although the bosses don't understand technology, they may send some experts who understand technology. You can handle them for me."
"Uh, no problem." Ian Wilmut thought for a while and felt that this was a simple matter.
Although colleagues are not easy to fool, as long as the money is spent properly, colleagues can become accomplices.
If money cannot be secured, then drag colleagues into the research institute and add another name to the research project report.
"What if you still can't do it?" Ian Wilmut hesitated for a few seconds.
"If you can't figure it out, just tell me." Qin Yi said calmly, "I have a way."
Ian Wilmut shivered inexplicably.
"By the way, can I visit the research institute?" Qin Yi asked, "The boss has to see something."
Ian Wilmut thought for a moment, "I'll take care of this."
"Then I wish us a happy cooperation." Qin Yi smiled and stretched out his hand towards Ian Wilmut.
Ian Wilmut quickly reached out and shook Qin Yi's hand.
…
In the hotel in Edinburgh, Hong Wengang sat on the sofa a little nervously.
Originally, within the cooperation system, he and Mr. Zhao were on the weaker side.
He provides customers and surgical teams, and Mr. Zhao provides database technology and organ donors.
But within a few days, Mr. Zhao introduced the Eight-faced Buddha.
The original model became Mr. Zhao's main role, and he and the Eight-faced Buddha assisted each other to check and balance each other.
After some cooperation, Hong Wengang watched Mr. Zhao turn his hands into clouds and rain, turning his customers into his customers.
At the same time, he also borrowed money to fund the Eight-faced Buddha, which allowed a shady drug criminal to take off in Siam.
After the Eight-faced Buddha took off, Hong Wengang seemed insignificant. He felt that his use value was being squeezed out quickly.
Hong Wengang felt an unprecedented sense of crisis in his heart. He was worthless and would be abandoned in the next step.
With Mr. Zhao's ruthless style, I'm afraid he will be silenced directly.
Even if he is not silenced, he cannot accept being marginalized in the team. By then, I am afraid that the Eight-faced Buddha can easily crush him to death.
You must show your own value in order to continue to survive.
Hong Wengang frowned, thinking about how he should show his value.
While he was thinking about it, Qin Yi came over with someone.
"Mr. Zhao." Hong Wengang quickly stood up with difficulty with his crutches.
Qin Yi quickly stepped forward, supported Hong Wengang, and said pleasantly: "Sit, sit, sit, there is no need to be so polite. You are not in good health, so avoid exercising too much."
Hong Wengang's heart tightened. The more polite the other party was, the more uneasy he felt. He said nervously, "Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for your concern."
"You should take good care of your health." Qin Yi helped Hong Wengang sit on the sofa and said earnestly, "You are my right-hand man. I have many things that I still have to ask you to do. What can I do if I am not in good health?"
"Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for taking this seriously." Hong Wengang asked uneasily, "I'm afraid I can't help Mr. Zhao too much with my body."
"Hey, don't bring your emotions to work." Qin Yi was a little unhappy, "I know you have grievances."
"Don't dare." Hong Wengang quickly denied.
"It's normal to have resentment." Qin Yi said casually, "The Eight-faced Buddha is doing well in Siam. Do you feel that you are not taken seriously and that I am partial?"
"Mr. Zhao, I don't mean that." Hong Wengang stood up in a hurry.
"Hey, look at you, don't be anxious." Qin Yi waved his hand, "It's not that I don't value you. How can you give up on yourself before I can use you? This attitude is not good."
"Mr. Zhao is right to criticize." Hong Wengang quickly lowered his head and admitted his mistake.
"We've almost finished talking about the research institute here." Qin Yi suddenly said with a serious face, "From now on, the research institute will be the top priority of our work, and we need a capable and trustworthy person to keep an eye on it."
"I don't trust others, so I consider you first."
Hong Wengang was stunned for a moment, his heart skipped a beat, and he said with surprise, "Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for the compliment!"
"I'm not flattering you." Qin Yi said lightly, "I just think you are suitable. However, it is only in the consideration stage and has not been decided yet. Besides you, there are several alternatives."
Hong Wengang had several thoughts in his mind and said with fear and fear: "Please give me some advice from Mr. Zhao."
"What the Eight-faced Buddha is doing is nothing more than those things. They are all sunset industries. The future is here at the research institute." Qin Yi looked at Hong Wengang seriously, "Do you understand the future value of biological cloning technology?"
Hong Wengang nodded vigorously. After listening to Mr. Zhao's lecture, he also gained a lot of knowledge in this area.
"So, in the future, the focus of development will be on technology research and development." Qin Yi waved his hand, "I plan to invest one billion US dollars in R&D funds every year, focusing on the fields of organ cloning, blood cloning, hematopoietic stem cells, and gene editing."
"Start with the simplest things, then put them into production, gain profits, and then feed back into research and development."
"This is a very important task. The time is tight and the task is heavy." Qin Yi looked Hong Wengang up and down, "Can you handle it?"
"No problem!" Hong Wengang said immediately, "My body can last for a few more years, so leave it to me."
"Okay, since you asked for it, I will give feedback to the bosses." Qin Yi stood up and patted Hong Wengang, "Take the time to do a physical examination in the past few days. If you have anything, don't insist on it."
"Otherwise, it will harm your health and delay your work."
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhao." Hong Wengang nodded quickly.
"The inspection team sent by the bosses will come over in a few days. Please give me a good reception and do a good job in appearance." Qin Yi casually mentioned, "Don't let people say that we only asked for money and neglected our distinguished guests.
"
"Okay, Mr. Zhao."
…
"After visiting the laboratory here, our next step is to go to the conference room, where Chief Technical Advisor Professor Ian Wilmut will explain to everyone the application prospects of cloning technology."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Susan, a sweet-looking red-haired beauty researcher wearing a white coat, turned around and stepped forward, pushing open the door of the laboratory on high heels.
The guests who came to visit were like primary school students and followed them obediently.
As they walked, they talked excitedly about what they had just seen.
Hong Wengang clutched his chest in exhaustion and calmed down for a while. Just as he was about to follow the team, he suddenly felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.
The bald man next to him had quick hands and eyes, and supported Hong Wengang, "Boss, are you okay?"
"Medicine, medicine." Hong Wengang stretched out his trembling hand and grabbed the other person's arm tightly.
The bald man quickly took out the medicine bottle, unscrewed the cap, poured out a few tablets, and handed them to Hong Wengang.
Hong Wen just raised his head and swallowed the pills, reached out to take the disposable water cup handed over by the bald man, took a few sips, and said breathlessly: "What did the doctor say?"
"The doctor said that if you pay attention to rest, your heart can last for up to seven or eight years. If you are still so tired, two or three years will be enough."
Hong Wen's face darkened immediately, "Is there any news about heart donors?"
"Not yet." The bald man hesitated, "Actually, your brother's experience report has come out. His blood type is the same as yours."
A hint of evil flashed in Hong Wengang's eyes, "Can you find a place to arrange surgery for me?"
"Can."
"Then do it."
"Bonfire Shelter Company"
As night approaches, a special containment called "Bonfire Company" wakes up from its slumber and sends out invitations to people——
"When night comes, someone should light a fire and shine it in all directions."
The dead man wakes up in gibbering, with his belly bulging under the moonlight;
The earth is torn apart, and ancient darkness roars in dreams;
The shadows of the past linger on the dome, casting their gaze;
In a lightless world, people struggle to move forward amid hunger, fear and cold. If the night is too cold, they will light a bonfire.
