The difference between cloud and mud

Back at Beibei's house, Jiang Zhen was so angry, she ran to the small room and closed the door, ignoring everyone.Beibei wanted to send her daughter Xiaoyu to coax him, but Jiang Tong held her back: "Don't spoil him, it's good to let him eat a meal and calm down."

The two adults couldn't stop arguing, and Xiao Yu stood aside, blinking and looking up at them.Beibei hesitated to speak, patted her daughter's head, and handed her the ipad on the table: "Dad just said that he missed you on a business trip, my sister went to call dad, and then played a game with the ipad."

Beibei is afraid that the child will be short-sighted, so she strictly monitors the time the two siblings are exposed to electronic devices to the minute.As soon as Beibei got the ipad, she couldn't care about anything, she jumped up and down for joy, twisted her body and ran out of the bedroom to play.

Beibei closed the door, her smile disappeared: "Brother, I'm doing it for your own good."

"In the first place, Zhenzhen wasn't his own. It's fine if you don't stay at home all day, and you still discipline him like this—he doesn't know that you are doing it for his own good! Be careful of children who hold grudges, and grow up with you."

Jiang Tong smiled indifferently: "It didn't cost me a penny for his mother to entrust the child to me. I didn't adopt him to let him support me in the old age."

As long as Dennis can grow up healthy and safe, his mission will be accomplished.

Beibei stomped anxiously: "Then what are your plans? I have introduced so many girls to you, but you never see them. You really live in an orphanage by yourself when you get old!"

"Brother, you are in your thirties this year, and you should think about the rest of your life." Beibei earnestly said: "Death is like a lamp going out, and Zhenzhen's mother has been gone for these years, no matter how much you like her, you have to Look forward. You have been outside for so many years, and you don’t know that the domestic situation has changed, and a man who is [-] is not even a dog’s tail. If you don’t look for it now, you won’t be able to find a suitable one if you try to find it in a few years!”

Contrary to Jiang Tong, Beibei married her college boyfriend Su Lin as soon as she graduated.The man was born in a scholarly family, handsome and elegant with a wealthy family background. It is rare for his parents-in-law to be gentle and generous, and they do not interfere with the young couple at all.Beibei's married life is nourishing, so she treats others well, and wants to let the single young people around her appreciate the beauty of the two-person world as soon as possible.What's more, she always has a little bit of guilt towards Jiang Tong, and she tries her best to introduce Jiang Tong to the girls around her who can see her eyes.

Jiang Tong was helpless: "How many times have I told you...Dennis' mother and I are really not what you think."

"I don't care what you are like with her." Beibei interrupted him simply: "You must bring me a sister-in-law back within this year."

"It just so happens that Su Lin is away on a business trip today, so you can stay in the guest room. Our company has a few new sisters recently, all of whom are talented. See if you like them, and I'll set up a line for you."

Jiang Tong ran away with the bag on his back: "The company still has something to do, I'll go back first, and I'll pick up Zhenzhen on the weekend."

Beibei chased all the way out: "I'll send you the photos on WeChat later, let me know which one suits you!"

The car drove a long way, and it seemed that Beibei's voice still echoed in Jiang Tong's ears.He pressed his forehead to the car window, and the neon lights were shining brightly.The huge star pictorials are exaggerated in color, the glass curtain walls on all sides of the office building are shining, the yellow light tubes bend out the simple signboards of small restaurants, and the most common lights are the lights from the windows of countless residential buildings.Light white, warm yellow, bright orange, one by one flickering like stars in the sky.

After so many years abroad, even if I felt guilty and blamed myself at the beginning, and felt that I was not qualified to start over, I gradually felt lonely.Jiang Tong tried dating people, both men and women, but found that there was no way for him to start a relationship again.

He met the best person at his youngest age, and talked about a love that was deviant and desperate.Jiang Tong considers himself a calm and realistic person.The love with Xiao Fengtai is like a big fire, a high fever, although he narrowly escaped death, the little childishness and persistence in his character have been burned away.And without that little bit of anger and ignorance, the relationship becomes bland and tasteless, and there is no magic power that used to be intoxicated.

Where is Dennis dragging him down.Jiang Tong smiled wryly, it was clear that he took advantage of the child, Dennis was not his burden, but his shield.

In fact, the company has nothing important to do.It's just that meeting an old friend again during the day, and it's inevitable that there are some superfluous thoughts in the dead of night.Jiang Tong plans to stay up all night, and the pressure of the real world will help him to nip those unwanted thoughts in the bud.

His steps stopped at the door of the office building - that person should never appear here.

"Teacher Jiang, long time no see." Lu Wei waved at him, threw the cigarette butt under his feet and crushed it, his face looked illusory under the smoke, like a product of Jiang Tong's imagination.

"Go out for a drink?"

Jiang Tong admired himself for remaining calm and smiling at him: "Okay."

Probably out of consideration for Jiang Tong's financial situation, Lu Wei refused to go to high-end bars and took Jiang Tong to a 24-hour small restaurant on the side of the road.The two sat down, he greeted the boss familiarly, and raised his hand to order three Xiaochao and two bottles of Red Star Erguotou.

"Come on, touch one first." Lu Wei poured the wine and toasted Jiang Tong.Jiang Tong sat with his arms folded, motionless.

"Speak up if you have something to say."

Lu Wei chuckled, and drank the wine by himself.

"I heard that you are raising funds, and Yongping is willing to participate. You make an offer, and I will help you negotiate. Yongping is eager to transform and is thirsty for talents. Money is not a problem. Everything in the R&D department is up to you."

Jiang Tong asked himself that he had seen a lot of ghosts and monsters during his entrepreneurship, and was shocked by Lu Wei's face.How could he... How dare he say such a thing?

He picked up the small wine cup and drank it down in one gulp, like drinking a liquid flame. The acrid smell of wine traveled up the windpipe from his mouth, and he felt that he was about to get drunk.

"Boss Lu's kind introduction is very grateful, but unfortunately, I have had enough of empty promises." He said coldly.

Lu Wei's smile didn't change, as if he had expected Jiang Tong's answer: "Mr. Jiang, I'm really here to help you today. Think about it for yourself. At this juncture, Huaqing's reputation in the circle has already been withdrawn." Totally ruined. Which foundation gave you money?"

"Take a step back, even if you find the money to make btk27, how can you compete with these domestic pharmaceutical companies? The domestic market is different from the United States. Look at Icatinib, which has sold billions of dollars worldwide for so many years. The sales in China are not as good as basic chemotherapy drugs. Without sales channels, even if you make the drug, can you sell it?"

Jiang Tong laughed out angrily: "Mr. Lu is so considerate as a competitor. Should I toast you to express my gratitude? Thanks to you taking away most of my R&D team and colluding with the cro data to falsify, otherwise I would Given the previous valuation, how can it be bought by Yongping at a low price?"

Lu Wei sighed: "Mr. Jiang, I know you think I'm hypocritical, and wish you could cut me into eight pieces to fill the Yongding River. But I have to criticize you—you're too inflexible."

"You make cd30, and I make generic drugs. The essence is to cure diseases and save people. If you make an innovative drug, no matter whether it is successful or not, it is conservative to spend at least five years on research and development and invest hundreds of millions. I make generic drugs. Create medicine, change the product already on the market in foreign countries into a crystalline form to avoid patents, start the project in one year and get the second phase clinical report directly to NDA in three years, sell the original research for [-] a month, I sell [-] a month, and double the profit in one year and three years , Patients all over the country have to send me pennants."

"The shopping mall is not an ivory tower. You have to be flexible and pragmatic." He said to Jiang Tong: "The input-output ratio of generic drugs is high, the profit cycle is short, and the cash flow is solid. While there are no domestic companies entering, you Hurry up to occupy a place and build the pipeline, after ten years the market will mature, and if you slowly develop your CD30, what's wrong?"

"Anyway, it is the target that was returned by both Moore and Anda. I don't think big overseas pharmaceutical companies will intervene in research and development for a while."

Jiang Tong was chilled all over, and his anger was extinguished. He just felt disappointed: "You didn't set your sights on cd30 from the beginning."

It is his ability to understand and improve the structure of the drug.

Lu Wei spread his hands and admitted frankly: "That's right, I originally wanted to take you back to China. While developing btk27, I slowly figured it out and slowly corrected your thoughts. Who would have thought that you would be so stubborn?"

"It's not that I'm stubborn, it's that you don't recognize how much you are at all."

"Lu Wei, do you know how many people email me every day, inviting me to join their R&D team?"

Jiang Tong has always acted introverted and gentle, only a few people have noticed that his indiscriminate gentle tolerance stems from his intellectual condescension—how can adults take children's anger and troubles to heart?When he tore off the coat of warmth and began to despise someone seriously, he would appear extra cold and mean.

"If I wanted to be at the mercy of big pharmaceutical companies, there would be no need to leave the United States. If I had known you were thinking like this, I wouldn't have worked with you at all. You wouldn't even have the chance to knock on my office door."

Cracks finally appeared on Lu Wei's smile: "Mr. Jiang, you are too out of touch."

Jiang Tong pretended to be puzzled: "What is earthly air? Why should I be earthly? Mr. Lu may have misunderstood me. Yesterday I received an email from the school asking if I intend to return to the school for a job. Even if Huaqing goes bankrupt, I will only be Take a vacation and go back to the country for a while, and you are still far from being down."

Lu Wei gritted his teeth: "Times have changed. Some domestic pharmaceutical companies have money and some channels. You don't want to, and some people rush to cooperate with Yongping. You gang of eight-nation coalition forces can't beat Tubalu. You will definitely fail."

"I don't need to worry about it." Jiang Tong smiled slightly: "Huaqing will definitely get the marketing approval of btk27, the first domestic new drug, and will successfully develop cd30. I advise Mr. Lu to keep his eyes straight and focus on himself Don’t always think that you can play with everyone. If you walk along the river too much, your shoes will get wet sooner or later.”

While Jiang Tong and Lu Wei were drinking low-quality baijiu in the small restaurant, Fang Zhixing was sitting in a landmark sky bar a few kilometers away, watching Xiao Fengtai helplessly down a glass of tequila.The whiskey puck in Fang Zhixing's hand had almost melted, he hadn't had much to drink, and secretly hoped that Xiao Fengtai hadn't noticed this.Si Fan had just returned from a business trip, and Xiao Fengtai forcibly dragged him to go clubbing. He was already very helpless after having a candlelight dinner, so it was better to save some energy than a newlywed.

Xiao Fengtai raised his hand and ordered another cup of tequila.Fang Zhixing was trembling with the whiskey in his arms, hoping that the boss would just drink it alone until he fell over and forgot his existence.

He almost thought that his wish would come true, until Xiao Fengtai suddenly turned his head, with a slightly drunken smile, ambiguous and provocative under the dim light.

"I haven't asked for a long time." He slowly approached him, his voice was still steady and stable: "How are you and that Lin Daiyu in your family?"

"His name is Si Fan." Xiao Fengtai moved forward, and Fang Zhixing shrank back: "We are fine."

Xiao Fengtai put his hand on Fang Zhixing's thigh, Fang Zhixing shook his whole body, avoiding it was inevitable, closed his eyes and made a gesture of slaying his neck, with the unyielding expression of a revolutionary martyr: "Boss, you drank too much."

Xiao Fengtai laughed: "You are so funny."

He suddenly restrained his smile again: "Fang Zhixing, let me ask you. How can I not compare to Si Fan?"

"I was so kind to you back then, why did you reject me so quickly?"

"If you don't try, how do you know I can't do it?"

This is a proposition!Fang Zhixing's drunkenness disappeared, and he said to him from left to right: "Boss, you...you really drank too much."

"Don't talk about deducting bonuses."

Why do you still bring it like this!Mentioning money hurts feelings, Fang Zhixing's heart is overwhelmed, and he can't care so much: "Because you are not him."

Xiao Fengtai was taken aback.

Fang Zhixing smashed the pot and said, "Yes, for outsiders to see, you are more beautiful than Si Fan, richer than him, and more capable than him. But, but you are not as cute as him."

"He is what he is. He has both shortcomings and advantages. He is just an ordinary person. But when I saw him smile, my heart would open up, and when I saw him frown, I felt that the whole world was also gloomy. I thought that during the time when I lost him, I suddenly realized that what I cared about before was nothing at all... I would give everything I have in exchange for him."

"Stop talking." Xiao Fengtai said in a low voice, "I recorded everything."

Fang Zhixing was dumbfounded: "What?"

Xiao Fengtai smiled and shook his phone: "Do you think you're filming an idol drama? My teeth are so sour, Huaqing's due diligence should be done well, and if something goes wrong, I'll play your recording on loop in the company."

"Hurry up and go back, don't waste my time." He seemed to be a different person, and started to chase him away impatiently: "You are so big and you are so stupid to sit still, others think that we are afraid to come here. "

It is nothing more than that for the villain to file a complaint first!Fang Zhixing was filled with grief and indignation, he picked up his clothes and left.Obviously he dragged him here by force.

However, Xiao Fengtai was really abnormal tonight, Zhixing realized his conscience before he walked out the door, and thought about not having a drink with him anymore.

When he looked back, his place had been filled by a beautiful woman with an S-shaped figure.This woman was wearing a tight-fitting miniskirt with a large open back, her eyes were shining, she almost turned into a real body and peeled off a layer of skin from Xiao Fengtai's body.As for Xiao Fengtai, his young, handsome and wealthy boss sat firmly at the bar.He said something with a slight smile, and the glamorous woman leaned back and forth with a smile, almost plunging into his arms.

Eat salty radish and worry about it!Fang Zhixing tossed his coat, turned his head and walked out of the bar.
