Stepmother: I Am Asked To Give A Kidney To My Half-Brother

Chapter 435: Questions

“Hahahaha, I don’t like to show off. If someone with ulterior motives catches me, it will become quite troublesome. Chief Zhao, you’re in a high position, so you should understand what I mean, right? Isn’t there a saying? The higher you fly, the more you fall. Only by maintaining your rationality can you control the situation at all times.”

These words really shocked Chief Zhao. He was too smart! Even if he was in the most advantageous position, he knew the principle of retreating bravely. Just this nature alone was much better than those people of the same age! If he hadn’t seen that Lu Ming was only in his twenties, he would have thought that he was an old monster!

If he reached his current age in the future, what would it be like? He could not imagine.

Immediately after, he sighed and said, “Chairman Lu, you’re amazing! I believe that in time, the name of Lu Ming Corporation will definitely resound throughout the country. No, it might even have a place in the world! At that time, Chairman Lu, don’t forget me.”

The two of them flattered each other, neither of them losing face. Unfortunately, this did not last long. Lu Ming went straight to the point and said, “I don’t think there’s anything wrong with my number one, right? Why do you keep stopping my program? I don’t understand what’s wrong.”

Wasn’t the problem with this matter because he didn’t bribe him? Although this had already become a secret between the two sides, if he openly said it, wouldn’t he be caught red-handed? Chief Zhao had been in this position for so many years, so how could he be so careless?

Therefore, he smiled kindly and said, “CEO Lu, what are you saying? I’m not sure if there’s a problem with your medicine. After all, many companies send their medicine to the evaluation center every day. If there’s no problem, I think we would have approved it long ago. However, I remember that this No. 1 is the result of joint research with foreign companies, right?”

Lu Ming was not angry. He said calmly, “Yes, but the two of you have been playing hide-and-seek with each other for a long time, which led to my medicine being delayed.”

“You should know, right? My medicine can really save lives. Would you rather those ordinary people be forced to die than let my medicine pass the review? To be honest, I don’t understand what’s going on in your mind. My medicine is much better than Xing Wei’s inferior preventive medicine!”

Chief Zhao’s heart skipped a beat when Xingwei’s fake medicine was exposed just like that. However, he felt that it was expected. The other party was quite cunning. He might be many times more shrewd than him! This made him feel a little afraid—

It would definitely be terrifying to become enemies with this person, he thought.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was terrifying. He quickly dispersed his thoughts and said, “CEO Lu, you can’t say things without evidence. Since Xingwei Preventive Medicine can be sold successfully, it must be fine.”

“We all know deep down whether there’s anything wrong with it. As for how it passed the review, even a fool can think of it! Aren’t you afraid that your position will be jeopardized? Or did Xingwei give you enough benefits to make you favor them? Chief Zhao, are you interested in answering my question?”

......

The questions made Chief Zhao break out in a cold sweat. He said stubbornly, “What kind of person do you think I am? Do you mean that I’m similar to those corrupt officials? If you spout nonsense without evidence, do you know how serious the consequences will be if this gets out? I can sue you for spreading rumors! Also…

CEO Lu, you need to understand something. I’m the chief of the Drug Administration. If I say that there’s no problem with Xingwei, then there’s no problem. If I say that your drug procedures are wrong, then there will be delays! I have the final say! That’s all I have to say. No matter what you say, I won’t change my mind.”

This was a mission personally issued by Fang Tiancheng, which indirectly showed the old leader’s position. Although Lu Ming Corporation was very powerful, it was nothing compared to the former. Moreover, the old leader might have keenly sensed that something was wrong with Lu Ming, so he delayed his drug review.

He had completely forgotten about Fang Tiancheng’s strange attitude and was completely immersed in his conjectures.?How could the old leader have misjudged him? It’s definitely Lu Ming Corporation’s fault!?He firmly believed that when there was no news from the old leader after so many days.?They must be investigating Lu Ming! When the company is no longer in trouble, they might pass the review!

Therefore, Lu Ming needs to reflect on himself!

“If you have time to argue with me here, why don’t you think about whether the company did something wrong?”

Otherwise, why would they target Lu Ming Corporation and not other companies?

When Lu Ming heard this, he was amused.?Isn’t this a classic case of blaming the victim??His Lu Ming Corporation was innocent! He had never done anything wrong during his career! Take This Place No. 1, for instance. He had said countless times that there was no problem with this preventive medicine.

The only thing that was ‘wrong’ now was probably that he did not bribe Fang Mingcheng, right?

Although this kind of thing was common in all kinds of circles, it did not stop him from expressing his disgust at such behavior. As long as people paid some benefits, they could take a shortcut. It was like Xingwei preventive medicine. It was clearly full of flaws and harmful to the human body, but it still successfully went on sale!?Isn’t this blatantly profiting from the misfortunes of others? How could they accept this money with a clear conscience?

Insane!

“I understand what you mean, Chief Zhao.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he hung up the phone. After a short rest, he dialed another number and said, “Hello, Director Chen of the pharmaceutical import department? I’m Lu Ming, the boss of Lu Ming Corporation. May I ask if you have time to talk to me about This Place No. 1?”

Director Chen… No, when Chen Jianxin picked up the call, his first thought was actually similar to Chief Zhao’s. If he knew that this unfamiliar call would be from Lu Ming, he wouldn’t have picked up the phone! Now, everyone in their bureau knew that this No. 1 was trouble. Things had even developed to the point where no one was willing to accept it!

Thinking of this, he decided to seize the upper hand. At the very least, he had to grasp the initiative firmly! He coughed a few times and said, “Hello, hello, Mr. Lu. I didn’t expect that I would be able to come into close contact with you one day. You’re here to ask when This Place No. 1 can pass the review, right? It’s not that I want to say this, but it usually takes more than half a year. Unless it’s a special time, we can’t review it in advance.”
