In Lulu's live broadcast room, her name was Zixuan_Rulu. She had the aura of a host as she flirted with the 30 people inside.
However, Jordan was the male host. When someone said something explicit to her, he would jump out to accuse and protect her, and even threaten others. They would often quarrel with others, and Lu Lu would come out to mediate. Fang Xiaogang looked at the tone of this mediation. It was very similar to the tone of a brothel madame mediating between two young masters who came to visit the brothel.
He was quite popular. It didn't seem like he needed to increase his popularity, he thought to himself. He wanted to leave, but he was considering whether he should say goodbye to her before leaving. He didn't expect her to strike first.
"Excuse me, is Mr. Fang Xiaogang in the live broadcast room?”she asked.
[Oxygen: there he is, there he is.]
(Spectator A in Martian Language): Who is Mr. Fang?
(Korean Spectator B): It must be Lulu's oppa.
"Yes, it's the oppa I just met.”she said with a smile.
[No, no, it was a coincidence. I just met a friend.]
Follow the Wind: Since you're here, let's get some gifts.
Before Fang Xiaogang could refuse, the screen popped up.
Jordan gifted Zi Xuan_Rulu. a " cash gun."
Follow the Wind gifted Zi Xuan_Rulu. a Heart-shaped Light Ray Gun.
Fang Xiaogang looked at his phone and frowned.
Jordan gifted Zi Xuan_Rulu. a " Heart-shaped Ray Gun."
As soon as this line of words appeared, he immediately clicked out. He didn't want to look at this strange thing anymore. He went to the toilet to take a shower.
As soon as he sat down on the toilet, Lu Lu sent him a video call request on WeChat, but he rejected it. She sent another voice call request, but after hesitating for a while, she still answered it.
"What's wrong with you? Why did you leave? Look at how many gifts you've given me.”She complained.
"Ah, I'm planning to take a shower. I don't have the money to give you a gift, so I won't be inside.”
"Boss, you still don't have money?" She laughed.
"Why don't you go back and see your fans? They won't be paying attention to you in a while.”
"Hmph, you don't know how to appreciate a good person." After saying that, she hung up and probably went back to appease her fans.
After washing up and going to bed, he sent Shirley a WeChat message: How was his body?
Soon, she replied,[Fine.]
The next day, when he took the bus to work, Shirley was already working in the office. When she saw him enter, she stood up and said,""Boss, I'll get you a cup of coffee.”
"No need, no need. You sit, I'll go by myself.”he said quickly.
"I'm fine. I'll go." She did not listen to him and went straight to the pantry.
"Hey." Fang Xiao walked to the door and looked at her back. Today, she was wearing a set of work clothes and high heels, but her steps were still a little unsteady.
When she came back, she was no longer holding the company's disposable paper cup. Instead, she was holding a white mug without any patterns. It was plain and elegant, and it would not burn her hands.
"Where did you get such an artistic cup?”he asked with a smile.
"I went to buy it last night." She handed him the coffee and said," On the table is the rent money I gave you back.”
He glanced at the table. There was a small shopping bag folded in the mall. He opened it and saw that there was about 20,000 yuan in it.
"You didn't forget to deduct the cost of the dress, right?”he asked.
"It's on me. You also bought some daily necessities.”she said.
He felt a little bad about this. Thinking about how he was still with her…Just as he was at a loss, Xue Li said,"Boss, we have to submit the third CASE before we get off work today.”
He opened the email that Shirley had sent him. The third CASE had been organized very clearly. The advice he needed to give was very simple. The reason for the halt of production and the history of the drug were written at the back.
The Chinese version of the weight-loss pill, called Xenical, was a drug that acted on the absorption of fats in the intestines. It was also called an oil removal pill. The main ingredient was Orlistat. There were many reasons for the suspension of production. The main reason was that being accused by an organization in the United States would cause changes in the gut flora, and this change was a precursor to cancer.
Perhaps to avoid the huge fine, they chose to stop production. Thirteen other cases of severe liver and kidney damage that had not been proven to have a cause and effect relationship were also mentioned.
There was a huge pile of data behind it. Sales, pharmaceutical costs, Fang Xiaogang felt a headache when he saw these.
After studying it for the whole morning and searching for information online, Fang Xiaogang felt that there was something else. The drug had 13 million users in the United States, and no one questioned its efficacy or accused it of having significant side effects. It could be said to be a very successful drug. It had a good reputation among domestic dieters and was recommended to each other. However, the price was not cheap compared to the income of Chinese people. Many pharmaceutical companies had launched similar drugs with orlistat. The main reason for stopping production was that there were too many imitators and they had squeezed out the market share. When they saw the low cost of the chemical ingredients needed to make this medicine, they really felt amazed at the huge profits of the medicine.
"Although it's a pity that Xenical is the official original version of this medicine, since there are already so many similar medicines in the country, why should we reproduce it?”Fang Xiaogang said.
Shirley had nothing to do, so she had already moved a chair over and sat beside him, watching him search for information online. "The domestic brand awareness is strong, and the market share that can be recovered from the production is still very considerable.”
"That's just to let this foreign pharmaceutical factory make money, right? Speaking of which, do we also have shares in this pharmaceutical factory? Why was there no data on the proportion of shares?”
She smiled and said," Since you didn't say how much, it means that you have the largest share and can control the board of directors. It's equivalent to a full share.”
"No way. Isn't it a Swiss company? There are more than 160 of the world's top 500 companies, and our head office has a full share?”he said in shock.
Shirley nodded and said," The main thing is that its research team is very strong. Currently, there are two drugs produced in China. One is an organ transplant anti-rejection drug, and the other is to increase the survival time of cancer patients. They are both independently developed by their family.”
"What does a strong research team have to do with a full share?”He did not understand.
"This is also part of the global layout. The head office was based on the vision of all mankind to carry out systematic business practices.”Xue Li said.
Fang Xiaogang nodded and said," How about this? I'll support the revival of Xenical. Even if the company makes money and grows, it won't lose money if it doesn't sell much. After all, the cost is so low." Moreover, the investment cost could also revitalize the national economy.”
She smiled." Then you're a little irresponsible. You put your country first and didn't put the company first."”
"I'm thinking for the people. Besides, money is just a tool for circulation. The head office is so powerful, so it doesn't matter if it's a little money.”He waved his left hand casually, as if all the money in the head office belonged to him.
"Alright, I'll go and produce the report.”Shirley stood up and dragged the chair back to her seat to work.
It was lunchtime when the report was almost finished. Fang Xiaogang asked her,"How's your appetite today? If possible, I'll take you to a delicious restaurant.”
Xue Li raised her head and nodded with a smile.
After driving for 20 minutes, they left the city and arrived at an old neighborhood. There was a dense area of cars near the gate of the community, and there were many taxis parked there.
There was a restaurant that had been renovated from an old house. The dining tables were all near the old house. There were more than ten dining tables made of wooden tables and plastic stools, and they were almost full. The taxi driver got out of the car to eat and then drove away.
Fang Xiaogang let Xue Li occupy half of the square table first, then he went to the old house to order food. Braised fish, meatballs, sausages, stir-fried mushrooms and meat slices, stir-fried dried celery, and soup with half a chicken in a casserole were served in large magnetic bowls, occupying more than half of the table.
Xue Li sniffed. These vegetables were especially fragrant. When the rice was served in a small bowl, she couldn't wait to start eating.
"How are the dishes here?" he asked.
"The soul of these dishes is burned out." she said.
Halfway through the meal, Fang Xiaogang's phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was from Wang Yiwei.
"Hey, I'm already eating." he answered.
"I know you're already eating. It's Friday. Do you want to play mahjong tonight?”the other party said.
"Mahjong? Who is it?" he asked as he ate.
"Xue Qidong, Feng Bin. Are you going to do it or not?" Wang Yiwei said.
"F * ck!" he said with a smile.
"Seven o'clock, Happy Dream Mahjong Hall." He hung up.
"Why are you so happy playing mahjong?" Shirley asked as she looked at the smile on his face.
"Ah, not really. Haha, I haven't played for a long time.”he said with a smile.
"Is mahjong fun?" she asked.”
"Do you want to go with me tonight?”he asked.
"Uh…do your friends mind?”
"If a beauty like you were to go, they would lose the mood to play cards. Their hearts would be filled with joy.”
"Then I'll go with you and change my clothes to distract them."”
"It's fine. No matter how hard they try, they can't beat me.”he said confidently.
When he returned to work in the afternoon, Shirley submitted the last CASE report by email at around 2:00 p. m. Then, he handed over the written reports of the car company and pharmaceutical factory to CEO Feng.
Now that the work for this week was completed, Fang Xiaogang was relieved. Shirley said that the work for next week would only be confirmed on Monday.
When he was done, Fang Xiaogang stood by Shirley's desk and excitedly explained the local mahjong rules to Shirley. She listened quietly. Suddenly, his phone rang with a WeChat voice chat request. He picked it up and saw that it was Lulu.
"Hello." He picked it up.
"I'm going to the bar with Ada tonight. Are you interested in joining us?”she asked.
"Unfortunately, I have an event tonight.”
"What activity is more interesting than drinking with a beautiful woman?”she asked.
"Ah, I'm old and can't drink. I've already been asked out by a friend tonight.”he said.
Lu Lu immediately hung up.
"Who is it?" Xue Li asked.
"I met her on the night of the welcoming party. She's Ada's best friend.”he said.
"Did you drive after you left my place?”she asked.
"How did you know?"
"I saw you guys upstairs." she said with a smile.
"So you were peeping at me from upstairs." he said with a smile.
"Yes, at that time, I just wanted to see the person who heartlessly left me behind one more time.”she said.
He couldn't laugh anymore and said to her seriously,"I'm sorry."
"Why are you apologizing? You didn't do anything wrong.”She smiled and held his hand to comfort him.
After work, Shirley wanted to go home to change her clothes, so he drove her to her place. She went upstairs to change her clothes while he waited in the car. He called his wife.
"Honey, I'm playing mahjong with Wang Yiwei and the others tonight.”
"…No way. When will you be back?”
"Uh, it'll be very late. You should sleep first.”
"Why are you coming home late again? I haven't come home early this week.”she complained.
"Who said that? Didn't I get home on time yesterday?”
"Last night. What about other times?"
"Aren't they all busy?"
"There's no need for so many things. What time are you coming back tonight?”
"I'm not sure. At least after midnight, maybe even later. I'll rest tomorrow.”
"No, eleven o'clock."
"How is that possible? Mahjong isn't a solo activity.”
"Then don't go."
"I've already made an appointment."
"Tell me about you. You don't do anything serious all day long…"
"Hey, hey, hey, that was in the past. I have a proper job now.”
"Shouldn't you get off work on the dot?”
"I came back to have my own fun. What's the difference?”
"No, I want you back."
"Aiya, don't be so annoying. That's it." Fang Xiaogang suddenly lost his patience and hung up.
When Xue Li changed her clothes and came down, Fang Xiao was just unhappy because of this phone call. As soon as she got into the car, she noticed that there was something wrong with his expression.
"Sorry for making you wait. Are you angry?" she asked.
" No." He forced a smile and said,""Shouldn't I wait for you?"
"Then what happened to you?"
"It's fine. Let's go."
Cher was indeed upstairs showering, changing clothes, and putting on makeup. It took nearly an hour, and it was almost half-past six. She still had to rush to the mahjong room, so she didn't have time for dinner. After some discussion, they decided to rush over first and order takeout while playing cards.
The Happy Dream Mahjong Room was on the third floor of a small commercial building in a small district. The entire row of windows on the third floor were all rooms in the mahjong room. Fang Xiaogang's parking spot was just outside the window. After getting out of the car, she looked up and saw a mahjong player watching them from a window. It was Feng Bin.
Fang Xiaogang waved his hand and brought Xue Li upstairs. When they entered the room, only Feng Bin was there. Looking at the time, it was already 6:58.
"Those two haven't arrived yet?" he asked.
"Isn't it normal that they didn't come here?”Feng Bin smiled as he sat in his seat and looked at his phone.
"F * ck, I didn't even have dinner before rushing over. Shirley, let's order.”he said.
Feng Bin said," You'd better wait for them to come before ordering. Maybe they haven't eaten yet. We'll order together then."”
"Then I'll call them." "What's wrong with you?" He called Wang Yiwei.”
"We'll be there in ten minutes. There was a traffic jam on the road." he said.
" Couldn't you have been earlier in the traffic jam..." Fang Xiaogang was about to scold him when the other party hung up.
"F * ck. Motherf * cker." He then dialed Xue Qidong's number.”
"I'm buying a pack of cigarettes downstairs. Is everyone here?" He said over the phone.
"It's because of people with thoughts like yours that they can't start on time every time.”he said.
"Don't be so stubborn. I'm always the first to come.”Xue Qidong said.
"Please be careful. The person who is never late is on the phone with you now.”Fang Xiaogang said.
"Alright, alright, I'm coming up." he said with a smile.
