The Goddess Shines on America

Work is methodically assigned. On the one hand, Alice has to supervise the affairs of Vanda Plaza that Li Zekai is in charge of, and on the other hand, she has to worry about the development and growth of the umbrella company. Of course, this description may be exaggerated, but she did let go of her business in Silicon Valley and concentrate on her career here in the UK.

The design drawings can be easily finalized. With the nearly half-completed Alice Building as an example, the construction process of Vanda's first commercial real estate is progressing smoothly.

On the one hand, there are matters related to construction bidding. With the British royal family as the "local snake", it is not difficult to pick the most suitable construction team; In addition, joining other stores is not a problem.

Therefore, the reason why Li Zekai, who has just graduated from university for a year, can take the position of general manager is of course not because he is so good, but because these tasks are really simple—well, relatively speaking .

As for the umbrella of pharmaceutical companies, weight-loss drugs will of course have to go through a long inspection cycle, and the initial contact with Pfizer, a global veteran pharmaceutical group, is considered good. A pharmaceutical factory in the UK will be acquired, and the president of the European region will also visit the research institute in person. For a newly established company, this progress is very good.

So, after settling down a little bit of nosy matters, Alice will prepare to receive the president.

This is the top priority right now.

Although Alice has a lot of money, when it comes to the pharmaceutical industry, which is completely new and has a long history, she must establish a good relationship with all parties.

Then, the time soon came when they agreed to each other. At 9:45 in the morning, after seeing the business car approaching from the office, Alice immediately took the elevator to the first floor, and then went out to meet the distinguished guest.

There is no doubt that the European headquarters of Pfizer Group is in London, and Spencer is an authentic British. In fact, Alice can be regarded as a customer, an American foreign businessman.

"Welcome to Exeter, Mr. Spencer."

With the sky full of dark clouds and the weather about to rain, Alice quickly walked towards the mature man getting off the car: "I believe you have rarely been to such a small city in a remote area before?"

Oswell Spencer has a typical British appearance. He is wearing a well-made blue and black suit and has a slender figure. He definitely deserves the praise of a British gentleman. Seeing Alice in a small white suit, he smiled slightly, and even made a gesture to kiss her hand: "Seeing is believing, Alice Wang, the genius girl from America, it's an honor to meet you."

As soon as Alice put her hand on the other's palm, she immediately pulled it back before being kissed. The timing was good, not too early to embarrass Spencer, not too late to be kissed, and the back of the white hand brushed slightly against the lips that were falling. Did it give this man a little bit of numbness? At least he couldn't say he was being rude.

It all happened quickly, but enough for Spencer to see what Alice meant, and he smiled. The hand-kissing ceremony requires bowing the head and bending over, and the speed is not slow. Although the hand failed to kiss, the driver behind couldn't see much of the truth, and the tall female secretary who followed head-on didn't necessarily notice much.

A girl with quick reactions and quick movements.

"I won't say much about the polite words, we are not doing business with the Japanese." Alice directly made a gesture of invitation and said, "Please come with me, who are the other two?"

The two men traveling with Spencer are technology executives and, like himself, biologists.

Speaking of which, Oswell Spencer, who is only 33 years old and has a doctorate in biology who went to Japan to study, can still rely on his elite accounting and business management skills to become the divisional president of a multinational company. It really makes people want to cut his head open to see his IQ level, it must not be lower.

Taking the elevator, the five of them came to the second basement floor together. Before going up the stairs to B-3, Spencer couldn't help but stop slightly.

"Supercomputer, I know there is one at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California, with a calculation speed of about 2.4 billion times per second, but that was in 1985. Ms. Wang's one must be Is it even more amazing?"

"The one with 2.4 billion times is the M-13 of the Moscow Research Institute of Computer Science, which was announced in 1984." Alice smiled and said, "The one you mentioned is the Cray with 3.9 billion times per second. -2/8. As for my one, it is indeed the latest model, but I think it should be eliminated. Now is the era of great computer development, and Moore's Law is very scary."

Spencer nodded approvingly. Don't look at it now, he is the representative of a large pharmaceutical group, and the other party is a newcomer in this industry, but this world is by no means isolated. A well-funded IT industry leader has joined the medical field, and no one can underestimate her development potential.

After all, the role of supercomputers in medical research cannot be more important.

Curiosity is there, but things have to be prioritized. But wait for a visit to the supercomputer room, everyone still has to go down first.

On the way to the B-3 floor, Spencer couldn't help but said: "Miss Wang, is such a huge underground project really necessary? Oh, look..."

The speaking room has already reached the B-3 floor, which is the isolation area of ​​the computer research institute above and the pharmaceutical research institute below. The open space and the white marble floor are reminiscent of an underground parking lot but completely different. Piles of goods covered with canvas are piled up here, all of which are printed with the hexagonal LOGO of the "Umbrella" company, which looks quite mysterious.

"Are these... chemical raw materials? Where did they come from? The building we just walked through is..."

"We have a dedicated cargo channel." Alice introduced: "Our company has a cooperative relationship with the Drakken Drilling Rig Company in Germany. The company is currently in a large-scale transformation stage. These goods are sold to us at cost price The pharmaceutical production line of our company is also used to test the performance of new products with our hands. So Mr. Spencer, I really need you to guide us later to see if the new products of Drakken are qualified."

It's Draken...

Alice caught Spencer's fleeting expression clearly.

Spencer couldn't help but be moved. After all, Pfizer has subsidiaries of pharmaceutical companies, and the demand for production lines is not ordinary. Drakken is well-known as a century-old drilling rig company, and its basic technology has been tested. It is simply big news that such a company suddenly transforms into this field!

"Then I'm really looking forward to it." He looked at the piles of canvases with piercing eyes: "Looking at the scale, it should be a complete production line, right? Drakon is willing to sell you a copy at the cost price... Wang Miss, I'm sorry I can't help but ask... do you know each other very well?"

When this question was asked, everyone at the scene laughed.

Alice glanced at him thoughtfully: "What about a supercomputer? Some people need to rent its computing power. This contract was negotiated with me by a senior sales representative of the company. Mr. Spencer, I wonder if you have heard of such a name as Vipple-Pushkin?"

It was just a casual question, but Spencer straightened his back and looked at Alice suspiciously.

Seeing this, Alice raised her eyebrows. What's the matter, this president actually knows the spy of an unknown force?

Unexpectedly, Spencer said: "Vipple? Viper? Someone has such a name!?"

Hi?

Shrimp stuff?

Alice was confused by his voice.

"Vipple...a poisonous snake?"

Well, he grew up in an English-speaking country, so he was stunned, and the girl suddenly burst into foul language: "Damn it! Really! Why didn't I find out!? Vipper, poisonous snake!? Damn it! What on earth did her mother think, that she named her daughter such a name!?"

It's really fun for the girl to go crazy, but it hurts the adults around her. As the accompanying secretary, Monica can't just laugh at the boss. Spencer and the two technical executives are guests from afar, and they have to hold back. This is good, all four of them blushed, and their mouths picked up one after another like cramp.

"Actually..." Seeing Alice's look of doubting whether she was brain-dead, Spencer suppressed a smile, and interjected again: "The word Vipple also means methamphetamine. Besides, Keses Le company just launched the Dodge Viper sports car earlier this year, and I can think of this level because I just bought one.”

"Okay, okay." Alice waved her hands speechlessly: "Thanks for the broad and profound English, the same word can have different meanings, it really makes it impossible for simple people to live..."

The last sentence... Monica, who followed her silently, couldn't help shaking her head.

The matter of Miss Viper was just an episode. Seeing this mysterious woman steal her blueprint, but she didn’t respond for a long time, Alice didn’t take her seriously any more—she has a mental power scan that can be activated at any time. Now, if the other party really wants to do something, she will never miss it.

So, oops, let's go downstairs.

On the way to the fourth basement floor, Alice introduced: "This research institute has five floors in total, that is, from the fourth basement floor to the ninth floor. There are independent elevators in this area that can operate."

"What is the purpose of this structure..."

"Of course it is for the sake of confidentiality. The current security measures have not been completed, so that researchers can concentrate in an independent and closed area, isn't it what we entrepreneurs should do?"

Saying that, the elevator door opened, and with the cold white light entering the elevator box, Alice raised her hand and said with a smile, "Please come with me, representatives of Pfizer."
