Chapter 787: It's not a big deal
Xie Xinyue, dissatisfied with the ban imposed on her by Huang Xiaochuan, came to Shanghai to confront him.
"Xiao Chuan, this experiment has only just begun, and it's at a crucial stage, yet you've kept me confined to mainland China and Hong Kong. Aren't you overthinking things?"
Huang Xiaochuan smiled and personally handed Xie Xinyue a cup of coffee: "My dear Sister Xie! All you ever do is experiment. The outside world isn't as pure as the lab! Don't you know how valuable the KRB01 reagent is? Haven't you heard the saying 'money can move people'?"
After Xie Xinyue took the coffee, Huang Xiaochuan placed several documents in front of her.
"This is because some pharmaceutical giants have been lobbying several regulatory agencies in Europe and the United States, demanding that they conduct a more rigorous review of krb01. Moreover, some people are even planning to suggest that the judicial authorities in the countries where krb01 is involved in intellectual property disputes take detention measures against you. If you go there, wouldn't that be like handing yourself over to them?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Xinyue immediately put down her coffee cup, picked up the document in front of her, and began to read it. The more she read, the more alarmed she became.
After reading it, she was shocked and furious: "How could these people be so despicable!"
Huang Xiaochuan chuckled: "Capital is profit-driven, and the business world is like a battlefield. The tactics used in business warfare are endless. These are just basic operations. You didn't know this before because you weren't as valuable as you are now. You're different now; you're the creator of KRB01, the chief scientist of Kerui Pharmaceuticals. In their eyes, you're a gold mine!"
At this point, Huang Xiaochuan glanced at Xie Xinyue, and seeing that she was alright, continued, "There's a lot of trouble coming up. Soon, there will be people trying to stage accidents, and soon someone will be suing us for patent rights."
Xie Xinyue exclaimed in surprise, "Didn't we already complete global registration of our patents? Moreover, as you requested, the core formulation data wasn't patented; it's stored in a secret and secure place."
Huang Xiaochuan patiently explained, "Didn't I just say? 'Pengshi' means someone is trying to cheat us, making up reasons to say we copied their patent, demanding huge compensation, and even if they can't win, they'll drag it out for years. They're just trying every possible way to annoy us. You've probably heard about how inefficient the Western legal system is, right? These lawsuits won't be over in less than a few years."
Xie Xinyue fell silent. Of course, she knew some of it, after all, she had lived in the United States for so long, she had seen it all, even if she hadn't eaten pork.
In fact, Dadao Group has already taken countermeasures. First, in terms of public opinion, Dadao Group has organized a strong public relations team to start working, planning to guide public opinion again through positive reporting and interpretation. It is not Huang Xiaochuan's style to remain silent when he is smeared.
As for foreign regulatory agencies, the plan is to communicate with them through formal channels. Whether or not the proposal is adopted is another matter, but it is essential to demonstrate to them that Kerui Pharmaceuticals has strictly adhered to international clinical trial guidelines and standards.
Furthermore, a legal advisory team comprised of top lawyers from multiple countries is ready to handle all possible litigation and legal issues, including patent cases.
As I always say, let professionals do what they're good at. Huang Xiaochuan just needs to patiently wait for the results and won't get bogged down in the details of the process.
When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it. We've spent so much money hiring so many professionals, isn't it all just to make things easier for ourselves?
With the annual Mid-Autumn Festival approaching, Huang Xiaochuan planned to deliver gifts to his parents-in-law on this day. However, just as he was about to set off, Chen Zhe arrived.
"Hey! You're a rare guest!" Upon seeing his friend, Huang Xiaochuan temporarily abandoned his original plans and warmly greeted Chen Zhe.
He immediately noticed that Chen Zhe looked somewhat worried, but he couldn't guess why. Chen Zhe's report had attracted the attention of the higher-ups, who specially organized a large number of experts to conduct a review and even had Chen Zhe accompany them on an inspection tour of some cities. They were about to promote and integrate the economic development of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.
Out of concern for his friend, Huang Xiaochuan asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
In front of Huang Xiaochuan, Chen Zhe did not hide anything: "I've been seeing a girl for a while now. I originally wanted to visit her during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but her family disagreed."
Upon hearing that it was because of this, Huang Xiaochuan immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "That's all? You scared me. I thought something serious had happened."
Chen Zhe panicked: "This isn't a big deal?"
Seeing Chen Zhe's bookish temper flare up, Huang Xiaochuan quickly and gently advised, "This is a big deal, definitely a big deal!"
After calming Chen Zhe down, Huang Xiaochuan asked him in detail about the reason.
The reason wasn't complicated; Cheng Ling's parents disliked Chen Zhe's age, as he was twelve years older than her, which was considered an older man dating a younger woman. Moreover, Chen Zhe was divorced and had a son, although he lived with his ex-wife.
It was Cheng's eldest son-in-law, Sun Jianshe, who found out about this. After he told his wife, Cheng Li, the couple kept it a secret for a while, fearing it would upset their parents. However, Cheng's mother hadn't forgotten about it, and eventually, under her persistent questioning, she found out.
This was outrageous! The Cheng family was immediately in an uproar. They already had a daughter who had married a divorced man, but fortunately, this daughter had also been married before, and the new son-in-law satisfied Cheng's parents in every way, so it could be considered a perfect match.
But the youngest daughter, Cheng Ling, has never been married! She's only had one relationship. How could she be so blind as to marry a divorced man? So what if he's a professor? He's a divorced professor.
But Cheng Ling was determined to be with Chen Zhe and insisted on going down that path. Moreover, after arguing with her parents, she moved out and into the single dormitory assigned to her by the library. This was a place for the library to provide for its employees to take a nap during the day, and of course, staying overnight was also not a problem.
This couldn't go on forever, so Chen Zhe decided to face the problem head-on. He decided to take the initiative to visit the Cheng family under the guise of the Mid-Autumn Festival, but they refused. This put Chen Zhe in a dilemma. He didn't have many friends to begin with, and even fewer close confidants. Fortunately, Huang Xiaochuan was one of them, so he came to ask him for advice.
After hearing Chen Zhe's idea, Huang Xiaochuan laughed so hard he almost fell over. He had been so busy with his own affairs lately that he hadn't had time to pay attention to Chen Zhe's personal life. He had been negligent and hadn't expected things to turn out this way.
However, he felt that this matter was not a big problem. The Cheng family objected mainly because they thought Chen Zhe was too old, but they didn't know anything about Chen Zhe. As long as he asked his second brother, Huang Erhe, the fourth son-in-law of the Cheng family, to help mediate, this matter should not be a problem.
With the university classmate of Asia's richest man and also a close friend, Huang Xiaochuan doesn't believe his family would object.
