Smith said awkwardly: "I know, this sounds strange, but I really feel that there is no better way now. The White House has given us such a big battle, and we cannot fail in less than a day."
Right? In that case, in the eyes of the White House, what’s the difference between us and a bunch of trash?”
Rogers was about to burst into tears and blurted out: "Smith... we are all scientists. Let scientists do such metaphysical things, they are not professional..."
Smith said: "There is no other way, just bite the bullet and do it, otherwise what should I do?"
At this time, a scientific researcher with an Asian face mustered up the courage to speak: "Mr. Rogers, I suggest that it is best to go to Jinling for on-site inspection, and then bring back a batch of environmental samples for research, such as the air there.
Seeing that he had an Asian face, Rogers asked curiously: "Are you Chinese?"
"No, I'm Japanese."
Rogers asked again: "Do you think it is so troublesome to go to the local area for inspection?"
The man replied seriously: "Before I immigrated to the United States, I did microbial research and development in Japan for many years. At that time, Japan was experiencing economic boom, and all walks of life were imitating and surpassing overseas excellent products, not just cars,
Optics, steel, medicine, etc., even the wine making industry is like this!"
As he spoke, the man continued to explain: "At that time, many distilleries in Japan entrusted us to help them reversely develop European and American whiskey and Chinese Moutai, and then imitate them. Western whiskey is very simple, and we soon had it.
Breakthrough, it didn’t take long for Japanese whiskey to outperform European products, surpassing European products in quality and taste, and gaining a large market share. However, only China’s Moutai liquor could not be imitated.”
Rogers asked him: "Why? Is there anything special about Moutai?"
"It is indeed very special." The Japanese researcher explained: "We used the same method to reversely develop Moutai, and found that the taste was always much worse!"
"Later we learned that many local wineries in China have tried to imitate Moutai, but they all ended in failure. The reason is very mysterious. The same technology, the same materials, the same formula, only in Moutai
, we were able to create Moutai with that taste. Without that place, no matter how similar the imitation is, it still lacks a little bit of soul.”
Rogers quickly asked: "Did you finally find out what the problem was?"
"I found it." The other party explained: "We later carefully studied the microbial flora during the wine brewing process and found that because the koji we used, the microorganisms were always different from the local Maotai koji. Even though we
Even if we secretly make Moutai's distiller's yeast and bring it back to Japan to cultivate it, it still won't work."
After a pause, the other party continued: "We finally concluded that pure Moutai liquor can only be brewed in Moutai, in their very unique environment, where the climate, altitude, humidity and local water
Resources all play an extremely subtle but extremely important role."
"I understand..." Rogers gritted his teeth and said, "It seems that there is something really mysterious here..."
After that, Rogers asked him with admiration: "What is your name? Which company do you work for?"
The other party bowed hurriedly and excitedly and said: "My name is Nakamura Shunpei. Before immigrating to the United States, I worked at the National Research Institute. Later I moved to Kobayashi Pharmaceutical to work on microbial pharmaceutical research and development. Now I work for Johnson & Johnson! I am very honored to be able to work this time.
Participate in the research and development of this miracle drug! I will definitely go all out and do my best!"
"Kobayashi Pharmaceutical..." Rogers asked in surprise: "Is this the Kobayashi Pharmaceutical that was acquired by Jiuxuan Pharmaceutical?"
"Yes!" Nakamura Junpei nodded immediately: "Later, Kobayashi Pharmaceutical gave up on microbial drugs and fully transformed into Kampo medicine, and I left."
"Okay!" Rogers nodded and said, "In that case, you will form a team and set off immediately to China for investigation and research! Take a look at the location of Jiuxuan Pharmaceutical to see what is special about it! By the way,
I’m also going to trial-produce Jiu Xuan Zai Zao Pill locally to see if it has any effect!”
