Chapter 1009 - 973: Production License
The funding support conditions from the National Health Commission are an allocation of eighteen million yuan, with an initial grant of six million yuan for research.Once this eighteen million allocation is exhausted, the expert panel of the National Health Commission will evaluate the progress of the project, assess its future development status, and approve additional funding support.
Regarding this level of support, Lin Jie is quite satisfied.
As for his lawsuit against Qin Ruomu, it was certainly not a spur-of-the-moment decision.
Lin Jie is very confident in this research project; otherwise, it wouldn't have caught Qin Ruomu's attention, with the military funding and backing the project solely based on the application report.
Lin Jie relies on his true skills to make a living, and with this project in hand, he's not afraid of others trying to suppress him or giving him a hard time.
He thought that even if this complaint couldn't bring down Qin Ruomu, the National Health Commission, in accommodating his viewpoint, would henceforth not allow Qin Ruomu to meddle in matters related to him again.
Without the annoying buzzing of flies in his ear, he could have some peace, right?
After listening to Lin Jie's detailed account of the phone call, Xu Qing smiled knowingly and said, "I said it, didn't I? Previously, several projects that received research funding had Qin Ruomu's name on their published results."
"Hearing from you, Expert Lin, there might indeed be some hidden facts in this."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Xingguang, standing by the side, immediately relaxed.
He realized that Director Xu Qing had completely leaned towards Lin Jie.
A mentor usurping a student's creativity, and renowned experts leveraging their position to share in, or even seize, others' research outcomes isn't an uncommon occurrence in the scientific academic community.
But this Qin Ruomu happened to run into Lin Jie, someone as tough as a diamond-hard iron plate.
Xu Qing continued to reveal, "Expert Lin, during the evaluation of this project application, Director Qin pointed out that this research project, which attempts to treat a hundred types of tumors with a single approach, is overly idealistic and highly impractical, with an inclination towards being overambitious."
"He strongly suggested that you should not squander your extraordinary medical talent and instead focus and specialize in the treatment of only one type of tumor, deeply researching it for several years for potentially achievable results."
To be fair, even Lin Jie himself found some sense in those words upon hearing them.
Xu Qing chuckled and said, "Director Qin's final review comment was to offer limited support."
"He believes a genius like you should endure some setbacks to temper your arrogance and pride; this would allow you to achieve even greater accomplishments in the future."
"Director Qin genuinely has my interests at heart!" Lin Jie chuckled.
Xu Qing echoed, "Indeed, at a certain level, anything can be said with an appearance of public-mindedness and righteousness."
"However, Professor Xun on the review committee completely disagreed with his suggestion."
"Professor Xun argued that, besides your exceptional medical skills, Expert Lin, you are consistently known for your creative and innovative ideas."
"The concept of this research project is novel and unique with theoretical feasibility."
"Your previous original ideas have already been proven to be feasible and workable."
"This time might not be any different."
"Professor Xun strongly recommended that successful individuals will continuously achieve success, and this research project is of great significance. Even with a minimal chance of success, it must be steadfastly supported."
"Thus, the representatives, Director Qin and Professor Xun, argued incessantly, and eventually, Minister Xiao learned of the controversy over this research project, leading to a final decision…"
After seeing Xu Qing off, Cheng Xingguang initially thought of advising Lin Jie to be more cautious in the future, but seeing Lin Jie's youthful and refined face, he abandoned the idea.
Perhaps it is precisely Lin Jie's youthful impulsiveness and fearlessness that make him come up with one incredible solution after another.
This nature is better left uncensored.
Anyway, with Lin Jie's capabilities, he fears no form of suppression.
In this vast world, he can go anywhere.
"Expert Lin, Qin Ruomu is definitely in trouble now. Director Xu's words already indicate that Qin Ruomu is not clean."
"This time, with Minister Xiao backing you…"
The words were just uttered when they saw Wei Haiyuan hurrying over, panting, "Dean, Dean, a general from the military committee is here, and he says he has something important to discuss with you!"
"A general from the military committee?"
Cheng Xingguang glanced at Lin Jie, perplexed, and asked, "Director Wei, are you sure they're here for me and not for Expert Lin?"
"Could I make a mistake with something like this?"
Wei Haiyuan urged, "Dean, hurry up, the general is still waiting for you in the office…"
Today is Wednesday, and it's another gathering day.
Two weeks ago, it was skipped because Lin Jie went to Germany. Last week, preparations for Elenna's surgery and matters concerning Yao Henan's father also caused it to miss two weeks in a row.
All tidied up, Lin Jie returned home around half-past five to find several people already there, joking around with Yao Siyuan.
"Wow, Doctor Yao, who would've thought you'd transform from the ugly duckling to a beautiful swan just like that!"
"Like a black hen becoming a phoenix!"
"Come on, come on, you can't even give a proper compliment; I'm a man, I just regained my original handsome looks."
Some time ago, Lin Jie performed partial cosmetic surgery on Yao Siyuan, repairing the scars on his face and reshaping his nose.
Now, the wound on his face has completely healed; he no longer needs to cover his appearance with bandages.
"Momo, Momo..."
Yao Siyuan approached Yu Momo, grinning, and said, "Do you think I've become more handsome?"
Yu Momo took a few glances at him and seriously said, "You have indeed become more handsome. Without comparison, you wouldn't realize that compared to your previous self, you are at least ten times better looking now."
Yao Siyuan pointed to Chen Qiuhua, Lu Kaicheng, Qin Gang, and Guan Muhua in the room and arrogantly asked, "Momo, among them, where do I rank?"
His remark immediately displeased Chen Qiuhua, who asked, "Yao Siyuan, why did you exclude Lin Jie?"
Yao Siyuan glanced at Lin Jie and, deflated, said, "His looks have transcended our level; there's no comparison."
"Momo, tell me, which rank do I hold?"
"You are an artist, with a refined taste in aesthetics, your opinion is the most objective."
"Do you really want me to say?"
Yu Momo looked at Chen Qiuhua, Lu Kaicheng, Qin Gang, and Guan Muhua, then at Yao Siyuan, stretched out her little hand and gestured, and said, "Dr. Yao, this is your rank."
Yao Siyuan widened his eyes and shouted in disbelief, "Fifth place?"
"How is this possible? Even if I can't surpass Chen Qiuhua, surpassing Lu Kaicheng should still be easy."
"This is the biggest illusion of the year!"
Lu Kaicheng snorted, "Yao Siyuan, who gave you such confidence to think you could surpass me and still have excess to spare? You just look better compared to your previous self."
"But among us absolute handsome guys, you still rank at the bottom."
"Right, honey?"
Chen Lili gave Lu Kaicheng a sideways glance and mocked, "You rank second-last, what's there to be happy about?"
"Miaomiao, is this true?"
Unconvinced, Yao Siyuan turned to ask Lin Miao, and also Du Feixue and An Kemeng, receiving consistent responses that saddened him...
Qin Gang walked over to Lin Jie, whispered, "Lin Jie, I've found out why Yao Henan's uncle wants to take her back."
"What's the reason?"
"Her uncle often goes to a game room to play small stakes mahjong."
"I got someone to play mahjong with him at the game room and discovered a fellow player who constantly talks about internet crowdfunding and online donations."
"That fellow player even said that given Yao Henan's miserable background, and her injuries, it's not difficult to exaggerate slightly online and raise hundreds of thousands, or even millions in donations."
Lin Jie frowned, asking, "Her uncle wants to use Yao Henan as a facade to scam money online?"
Qin Gang nodded, "That's probably his motivation."
"But, that guy who's always talking about fundraising made me suspicious. I had a buddy follow him for two days."
"And discovered this!"
Lin Jie took Qin Gang's phone, saw the picture on the screen, and immediately fired up with anger, saying coldly, "Damn, it's not that no good can come from bad, but there's hardly any good person here."
Appearing in the photo was a well-dressed middle-aged woman.
Lin Jie knew this person; she was the wife of the chairman of Bowei International School.
"I suspect this woman knows Yao Henan is under your protection and can't act directly, so she's tempting Yao Henan's uncle to gain guardianship, letting Yao Henan out of your protection range."
Lin Jie pondered for a moment, then asked, "Nannan's uncle is still unwilling to give up?"
"Although he occasionally curses you, compared to the imagined hundreds of thousands in donations, the real tens of thousands in medical expenses genuinely made him reconsider."
Qin Gang pondered, then said, "I'm just worried this woman might directly pay him this money..."
Lin Jie thought for a moment, instructed, "Send the information you've found to that chairman, tell him to handle it as he sees fit."
Qin Gang was stunned, confused, and asked, "We're not going to act ourselves?"
Lin Jie slowly replied, "What they're doing isn't illegal, how do we act?"
"This woman keeps doing stupid things, and without the constraint of her daughter, I bet the chairman would have some thoughts too?"
"Let's watch the drama unfold first, then talk."
"In over a month, Nannan is going to the United States, try to prevent any incident involving her during this time..."
Near six in the evening, Fu Xiuyuan also came.
He was holding a giant six-liter bottle of champagne.
"Lin Jie, everyone, let me tell you some fantastic news."
Fu Xiuyuan shouted excitedly, "The company's Mabthera generic medicine has passed efficacy consistency checks by drug supervisory departments."
"We might get production approval as early as next week..."
