Code Name: Flame

Chapter 76 Cooperation
The old man Raymond is already in his 70s, and his mental state is not very good, which may have something to do with the family's recent troubles.The reason why he met the Chinese brought by Quinn was mainly because the penicillin was said by Quinn to be miraculous.

It is still out of the Great Depression period, and the economic situation in the United States is not very good.Europe is still licking its wounds in the shadow of the First World War. The sluggish market and explosive production, the collision between the two makes everyone burnt out.

After reading Quinn's report, according to Raymond's intuition, this should be a good investment project. As for whether it is as good as Quinn boasted, Raymond could only smile back.Who is Quinn?The well-known playboy in the family, in his 30s, still speaks so exaggeratedly and does things so unreliably.

"Mr. Li, I read the telegram that Quinn gave me. To be honest, I am very encouraged. If the effect of penicillin is really that effective, it will be a very good money-making business, just like sulfonamide. Well, I did not say anything wrong, It should be sulfonamide."

Quinn was very happy. Raymond's affirmation of penicillin was actually a compliment to him.This is a rare treatment for him. Since he was young, his presence in the family has not been high, and he is not as good as a few sons-in-law from outside households.

From the old man's tone, Chen Jia could hear his unfamiliarity with penicillin and his misjudgment of market expectations.However, he did not feel discouraged or frustrated by this. It is understandable that he is biased because of insufficient knowledge.

"Dear Mr. Raymond, I regret that it is unfair for you to compare penicillin with sulfonamide. Penicillin is more than a hundred times more effective than sulfa. It is no exaggeration to say that every dose of penicillin is a life. Human beings because of penicillin The emergence of the overall life expectancy will be extended by at least ten years."

"Hahahahaha, Mr. Li said it well, well said. This sentence should be added to the promotional slogan of future products, it is very deceptive."

Raymond was amused by Chen Jia's words. To be honest, he liked the young man in front of him very much. From his speech and behavior, it could be seen that this man was capable.In his view, a calm and unhurried demeanor, with a degree of advance and retreat, is the external expression of talent.

Chen Jia suddenly apologized, stood up and took off his coat, naked in front of the two young and old.Pointing to the wound on his shoulder, Chen Jia smiled and said, "A penetrating wound, which bled a lot. One of my companions had a leg injury, which was also a penetrating wound. The terrible thing was that we couldn't go to the hospital for treatment at that time, and even a clean cloth was not enough." No, I can only tear my own shirt and bandage it.”

Turned around and showed them the scars on the back, "Later, penicillin was given, and the wounds began to close after three days, and they were basically healed in about seven days, and the scabs fell off after twelve days, as long as you don't use force, Ordinary people no doubt."

Under the surprised eyes of the old and the young, he got dressed, took out a file bag from his bag, took out a stack of papers and handed it to Raymond, "This is the detailed treatment materials of Dr. Collins of Shanghai Missionary Hospital. A total of thirteen cases have been treated, six of which are terminally ill. Eleven cases have been cured, and five cases of six terminally ill have been cured. If you count me and my companions, thirteen cases have been cured, and the effective rate has reached 80.00 %seven."

Raymond put on reading glasses and read the material carefully. His cloudy eyes shone brightly, "God, it's incredible. Mr. Li, do you still have samples? I want to find a hospital in New York to do a test."

"Yes, I have prepared a hundred bottles." As he spoke, he leaned over and took out a hundred bottles of penicillin from his bag and put them on the table.

Raymond picked up the medicine bottle and looked at it carefully for a while. There were some white powders inside the bottle, which didn't seem so miraculous.But he already knows now that there is gold in this bottle, and the future pharmaceutical factory will be a gold mine.

"Mr. Li, I will arrange it immediately and get the result as soon as possible."

Chen Jia took out another piece of paper and handed it to Raymond, "This is the general scope of application of the drug and the recommended injection dose. If possible, invite some reporters to follow up on this matter, and do some reports when the results come out. The bigger the momentum, the better." As for how to cooperate between us, I have already negotiated with Mr. Quinn, and we will discuss it if Mr. Raymond has any doubts after the results come out."

"OK, I'll arrange it right away. Quinn, spend some time with your friends these few days, take a look at New York, and keep them safe."

Leaving the headquarters of Citibank, Quinn immediately revealed his original shape, "God, my friend, don't you see how much my uncle likes you?"

Chen Jia turned around and looked at Quinn seriously, and said solemnly: "Kuin, if I were you, I would go upstairs to take care of your uncle right away. Didn't you see that he was in a bad mood? Maybe something happened to him Trouble. You go and tell him, don’t be anxious, with penicillin, all the difficulties encountered by the Stillman family will be solved. Tell him what I told you, and a huge opportunity is in front of you.”

Quinn is not an idiot either, he knew what Chen Jia meant when he turned his head.This is a good chance for him to win Raymond's favor, and a good chance to reverse his playboy image.

"OK, then I'll go with my uncle. I'll watch the drug testing process. Can you do it yourself here?"

Chen Jia reached out to bump fists with him, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I have lived in the United States for four years, not to mention they are by my side."

Quinn looked at Song Keqin and the five people beside him. He thought there should be no problem with the protection of the five of them.

"Then you go back to the hotel first, if you need you can call me, or my uncle."

After breaking up with Quinn, Chen Jia returned to the hotel, called a car and took Gu Minghua straight to the Patent Office to submit the materials, and the owner of the penicillin invention right wrote Gu Minghua's name.

The procedures were handled very quickly, and all the materials were drafted by an American lawyer in Shanghai, so it was passed without any problems.There is also a review period for patents, and there are many restrictions, such as anti-monopoly laws.

Chen Jia has already thought of a countermeasure. Authorized production can avoid the restrictions of the Anti-Monopoly Act. After setting up a pharmaceutical factory in partnership with the Stillman family, he also established one in China, and then used authorized production as a weight, and then Exchanging interests with other consortiums is much more cost-effective than investing in real money.

Gu Minghua went to the patent office with Chen Jia like an idiot, and was still very surprised when he knew that the penicillin invention patent was placed in her name.Fortunately, she doesn't understand what a patent right is now, and she is confused anyway, so she can do whatever Chen Jia asks her to do.

Everything was going well until they ran into trouble when they went out to dinner.

Due to the limitation of the weight of luggage on the plane, Chen Jia and the others basically didn't bring any clothes.After the work was done, Chen Jia took them shopping, and everyone bought a few sets of clothes and shoes.

It’s easy for men to say that suits are standard, and each person buys a few sets of the same style and different colors to deal with it.

Gu Minghua was born in a wealthy family, so naturally he also has the habit of rich ladies. Under Chen Jia's instigation, he went shopping freely, but even six men couldn't hold it.Fortunately, Gu Minghua finally woke up from the madness of shopping, and ended today's shopping activities.

They swaggered through the city with big bags and small bags, which naturally attracted the attention of some nearby people, but Chen Jia and the others were too crowded, so the thieves didn't dare to come over.

If thieves don't come, it doesn't mean that hooligans don't come.A few white people saw that they were yellow people, with so many things in their hands, they could tell they were rich yellow people.

Looking down on the yellow race is a concept shared by most white people. In the previous life, China was so powerful, and the white people still maintain this concept, but because of the law, the white people are even more hypocritical, and they just don’t say it on the surface.

But at this moment, these white people are not legally bound, and there is the Chinese Exclusion Act there, so it becomes politically correct to discriminate against the Chinese.

In fact, white supremacism took shape very early.They not only simply discriminate against Chinese, but to be precise, they should discriminate against Asians.It's just that in their cognition, Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, and Vietnamese are not clear, so they are all regarded as Chinese.

During World War II, the Americans sent all Japanese in the United States to concentration camps because they were afraid that the Japanese would make trouble in their homeland.Later, the Americans selected a group of Japanese in the concentration camp to join the army and formed the 442nd Corps.As a result, this group of people was not afraid of death after participating in the war in Europe, showing extremely powerful combat effectiveness, and became the most capable unit of the United States in World War II.

As for whether they worked so hard for the family members in the concentration camp or because of the spirit of Bushido, it is unknown, maybe it is both.

In the eyes of white people nowadays, people of yellow race are cowardly, low-level, and dirty representatives, so they don't have any psychological burden to bully Chinese people.
