A Valiant Life Chapter 888 - Countless people waiting

More and more people started to gather at the entrance of the Shanghai Chinese Medical Academy. One by one, more and more cars started to park outside.

There were quite a few well-dressed businessmen waiting outside as well.

The university’s security guards felt extremely helpless after seeing so many people in front of them.

“My security guard brothers, do you know what is going on right now?” the manager of a pharmaceutical company had personally come over. With regards to this situation, the managers of every single pharmaceutical company kept a close eye on it.

If the development of the prescription was really successful, it would definitely be a very major thing.

These security guards had never been addressed by anyone before, especially not this kind of people, the kind of people who were extremely well-dressed and had nice cars. With one glance, you could tell that they were rich.

Thinking back, all the rich people would never even bother to look them in the eye. So right now, being noticed by these people made them feel extremely happy.

“I have no idea. This is the Chinese Medical Academy, I’ll have to ask you to leave so as to not disturb the students who are having lessons,” the security guard very righteously said.

“Don’t be like that, brother. Come, have a cigarette.” A man took out a box of cigarettes and placed it in the security guard’s pocket. Then, he took out a cigarette from the box and personally lit it up for the guard.

The security guard secretly took a glance. He had a weird feeling inside him when he realized that there were more than a hundred sticks of cigarettes there.

“Brother, can I trouble you to tell me what the situation inside is like?” the man continued to ask. After the man said that, a few people rushed over.

The people that came over were definitely the man’s rivals. It seemed like all of them were after Master Lin’s prescription.

After taking the man’s cigarettes, the security guard definitely had to do something for him. The security guard took a puff of his cigarette and then said, “I don’t really know anything about what’s going on inside. However, Master Lin has been at work in the research lab the whole day already. He hasn’t even stepped out of the room. All his meals have been sent into the room by other people.”

“Looks like there isn’t any news from there yet. Where is the research lab?” the man anxiously asked. He knew that the information that had just been given to him was not of much use.

In addition, he also did not know which pharmaceutical company would be able to get a partners.h.i.+p with Lin Fan. If they were able to become partners with him, they would definitely have hit the jackpot.

Thus, the compet.i.tion amongst them was incomparable.

The security guard laughed and replied, “I’m just a security guard, how would I know?”

“No, no, brother, that won’t do. If you let me in, I’ll give you a huge red packet,” the man said.

The security guard heard him and waved him off. He replied, “That won’t do. If I let you in, I’ll lose my job. Don’t try and get me in trouble.”

“This…” The man was getting impatient. He did not know what to do right now and he also did not know what was going on inside.

The fact that Master Lin was developing a prescription for Leukemia was something that everyone already knew about. Also, if he really could develop a prescription, it would have a huge impact.

No matter what happened, they had to be there to get firsthand news.

However, this security guard was being a pain in the a*s and blocking the entrance.

…

“Director w.a.n.g, how is it? Have you been able to get any information?” the director of another pharmaceutical company came over and asked him.

“If only I could. I haven’t been able to get anything at all.” Director w.a.n.g helplessly shook his head. At this point in time, more and more compet.i.tors had come over. He was getting more and more unsure if he would be able to get that partners.h.i.+p with Lin Fan. Whichever pharmaceutical company was able to get that partners.h.i.+p would definitely take off.

“Do you think that Master Lin will really be able to develop a prescription?”

Director w.a.n.g replied, “That I don’t know. However, we all know what level Master Lin’s medical skills are at. He is truly G.o.dlike in this aspect. Regardless, we definitely still need to wait. What if he really is able to do it?”

“Director w.a.n.g, how about we work together on this? You probably can see it already. There are so many other pharmaceutical companies here, it’s definitely not going to be easy to fight with them. If we work together though, we might stand a chance.”

Right now, everyone wanted to get the partners.h.i.+p all for themselves. However, the crucial part was still the getting of the partners.h.i.+p. If they really wanted to get it, they had to bite the bullet and work together.

The situation at that moment was as if there was an army of thousands of men trying to cross a single-log bridge. They were all just trying to see who would get chosen. If they were to work together, the chances of getting chosen would definitely increase.

“We’ll see. Right now, we don’t even know if this prescription will even be developed or not.”

“That is true.”

…

All the reporters had come over to the academy in Shanghai. They felt obligated to know about what was going on inside. If the people of pharmaceutical companies did not come down to the Chinese Medical Academy to wait, they would definitely be cursing themselves in the future.

The next day!

The news reports came out.

‘A large group of pharmaceutical company owners is gathered outside the entrance to the Chinese Medical Academy, waiting for the development of the prescription.’

‘Do you think it will be good if the distribution of the prescription is to be handled by one of these pharmaceutical companies?’

…

The large variety of headlines popping up drew the attention of many viewers.

Some of the citizens rushed to get their comments in regarding this situation.

“We definitely can’t let these pharmaceutical companies handle the distribution of it. If they handle it, it will definitely be very expensive.”

“That’s right. Right now, even for flu medicine, it costs about 40 dollars to buy some. If the distribution of the prescription for Leukemia is handled by these pharmaceutical companies, you might not even be able to buy it with a few thousand dollars.”

“I feel like Master Lin won’t let these pharmaceutical companies handle it. Master Lin has said before that he doesn’t care about earning money.”

“^ are you dumb? How can you even believe such things? Many rich and powerful people have said this and yet in the end still ama.s.s such a huge fortune. If you were in this situation, wouldn’t you also try and stick your b.u.t.t out and ama.s.s an even larger fortune?”

“That’s right. It’s dumb to believe such words. Have you ever seen anyone who doesn’t care about money?”

“However, right now, the prescription hasn’t even been developed so all these discussions are useless.”

On the Internet.

The buzz surrounding Lin Fan developing a prescription for Leukemia had not dropped but had actually risen. This was especially true for those suffering from Leukemia who were monitoring the news every day, hoping to see the news they were hoping for.

Even though they knew that it would require a period of time, they desperately wanted the prescription to be developed right now.

In the research lab.

Lin Fan was brewing the Chinese medicine. Whenever a recipe was concocted, he would carefully take a taste of it before spitting it out.

“No, no. It has no effect at all,” Lin Fan shook his head and said.

This was already their 68th attempt.

Zhao Ming Qing saw how his teacher was sampling all the medicine and he could not help getting worried. “Teacher, sampling the medicine like this won’t have any effect on you, right?”

Lin Fan waved him off and said, “If you drink it then there will be a problem. If I drink it, there won’t be. Now stop talking rubbish and continue your research.”

“Oh…” Zhao Ming Qing could not understand why his teacher was fine even after drinking all that medicine but he did not think about it too much and continued his research.

Although the entire process was very dull and it was just repeating their original process over and over again, Zhao Ming Qing found an endless amount of joy from it.

Although they had not been able to develop a prescription yet, through this entire process, he had gained a much greater understanding of Chinese medicine.

Over the course of all their attempts, he had learned a lot of things that he had not known before.

Lin Fan also realized that Ming Qing had improved and nodded in appreciation.

Skill and hard work. Those were indispensable things even at an old age.

Also, at this point in time, some medical treatment units were conducting a discussion.

The main topic of this discussion was the prescription for Leukemia. Although the prescription had not been developed yet, many of the people inside felt like the probability of a prescription being developed was about 80%.
