Chapter 409: Trust Me
“Successful research will earn you fame and a lot of money, but there’s nothing to lose if you don’t pursue it.”
In other words, there was no need to fight to the death! They were all businessmen, so he thought that Lu Ming wouldn’t be so stubborn. If he couldn’t learn to be flexible, Lu Ming Corporation would have been gone long ago!
His mouth was dry from talking. He asked tentatively, “Mr. Lu, what do you think? We think it’s impossible to develop this preventive medicine. No, perhaps only those rich officials can produce results. The money we invested will be wasted. It will take us a lot of effort to earn back the same amount!”
Lu Ming was deep in thought when he heard the familiar voice of the system.
[Faced with the thoughts of Pitt and others, please make the following choices:
Option 1: Take your time. Reward: A random Star Creation Management Branch Company.
Option 2: Retreat in the face of difficulties. Reward: A chef team from an overseas five-star hotel.
Option 3: Persevere and continue to invest in research and development. Reward: Query (Using the Query Technique in daily communication will allow you to obtain the truth of the information you want to know unconditionally. Limited to once.)
Query Technique?
He raised his eyebrows. This is interesting. His attention instantly moved from the dilemma of whether to continue researching to the words ‘Query Technique’. Just as he was immersed in his own world, Pitt became more and more nervous. Seeing that Lu Ming did not respond for a long time, he thought it was a tactful rejection, so his expression froze, and his heart sank!
If I can’t convince Boss Lu, won’t I have to play along with him!?
I’ve already made the pros and cons clear. Won’t a normal person stand on my side after hearing this? Why would anyone jump down when he knows there’s a cliff in front of him? Can it be that Boss Lu has other plans? But I really can’t think of any other ideas.
“Boss Lu? Have you decided?”
Lu Ming was pulled back to reality by this voice. His eyes curved like a fox as he said, “I too am aware of this matter. Now that the people are in turmoil, we either give up or continue. You’ve all invested so much money. Why don’t you try to continue? Perhaps there will be results.”
“That’s what we thought at first, but now that our patience has worn thin, we can say with certainty that this preventive medicine is beyond our ability to produce! I’ve asked the doctors in our country to participate, and you could imagine the outcome.”
Pitt shrugged and spoke in exasperation.
Lu Ming’s smile did not fade. “I have an idea. If you’re willing to believe me, please stick with me.”
Pitt wondered, There’s a way?! How is that possible?! Isn’t it too speedy? What other way is there that we have missed? We have thought of everything we could before. Only by giving up this path could we stop our losses in time! However, the hidden anticipation in his heart had taken root because of what Lu Ming said.
Curiosity drove him to follow Lu Ming to the laboratory. All the researchers were gathered in the hall. They had all been informed in advance to put down their work. It seemed that the boss had something to say. They wondered what Lu Ming wanted to say at this time. Could it be that he had finally thought it through and wanted to give up? But it didn’t matter. Anyway, they couldn’t figure anything out.
Lu Ming stood on the steps and looked down at the faces of these people. He said, “All of you are elite geniuses in the industry. It’s our Lu Ming Corporation’s honor to be able to gather here to do the same research! I have to say that this epidemic is really troublesome. You all want to give up, right?”
He paused for a moment before continuing, “Do you know how humans used to avoid natural disasters? Floods, tsunamis, earthquakes… We survived time and time again because of our brains! There are solutions to any disease, but they haven’t been discovered yet! No one knows better than you about this research. Are you sure you want to give up?
Don’t you think it’s a pity? Your energy, our money! Do you really have to bow down to such a minor disease?! Tell me what you really think! If you give up, who else can be in the front line? The country? Or the defenseless people!”
His powerful words were like sharp arrows that pierced into the softest parts of everyone’s hearts. Ji Yu, who was in charge of recording at the side, felt her hands tremble slightly. The fatigue in her eyes instantly disappeared without a trace, leaving only a burning fighting spirit! Meanwhile, a blush had unknowingly crept up to the tip of her ears. The speed of her heartbeat made her unable to think too much!
She slowly placed her left hand on her chest. This Lu Ming is really… awesome!
Has my junior already grown to such an amazing level? She looked at the person standing not far away with mixed feelings. Although she had been persuading herself not to be envious of Chu Jinyu, she could not help but yearn for the kind of love she shared with Lu Ming.
“If you’re looking forward to the former, then I have to ask you. Can the officials really make medicine in a short period of time? If they can, why can’t you? You were the first to get the virus sample, right?! Are you going to say that your brains are inferior to the officials’ brains? Stop joking!
You’re all talents that I’ve picked from thousands of people! Now you want to retreat when you encounter a slight setback. Do you really understand the importance of this matter?! You have no way out! You can only use your knowledge and deal with this epidemic! If it’s easily made by the officials, won’t you feel indignant?!”
The fire that had been extinguished by the doubts started burning again. Many of them even looked a little ashamed. Just as Lu Ming had said, was it really in line with their original intention to retreat when they encountered a small problem? Didn’t they study this field to save people in the beginning?
Lu Ming looked at the expressions of these people in satisfaction. In the next second, he raised his right hand and placed it under his collarbone. He said loudly, “As the CEO of Lu Ming Corporation, I invite all the capable people in the world to join us! This matter is closely related to everyone. For our family and friends to live healthily, and for the sake of a better tomorrow, please do your best!
If we can make preventive drugs, I will definitely not be stingy! Everyone can get at least 300,000 yuan as a bonus! I will not only double the bonus for those who contribute more, but I will also satisfy any of your terms unconditionally! As long as it’s something I can do, I will definitely not hesitate!”
In fact, there was quite a lot he could do now.
