Mr. Gregory’s face visibly darkened bit by bit.
Normally, after all pharmaceutical companies have elaborated on the effectiveness and features of their drugs, the Drug Administration officials should not express their opinions to maintain fairness.
However, he probably really hated Richelle Dunn to the bone. After the applause died down, he even coldly asked Richelle.
“May I ask, Mr. Dunn, who gave you the confidence to believe that your company’s new drug will boost foreign trade and become a diplomatic weapon?”
Richelle calmly responded, “I’ve made it very clear that there are many such precedents. The time of the CEOs and reviewers present is valuable, so I won’t bother to elaborate.”
Mr. Gregory persisted, “Please, enlighten us a little, Mr. Dunn. We have plenty of time.”
Of course, Richelle came well prepared, “Not to mention the past, the East Asian government, thirty years ago, donated a batch of vaccines unconditionally to Leutonia, which has since exchanged for 30 years of peace between Leutonia and East Asia. Furthermore, thirty years ago in Yordania, the industry was extremely backward. When the new leader took office, he attracted several major pharmaceutical companies from around the world to set up factories there. It’s safe to say that the production of drugs has since become the main source of Yordania’s economy, leading to significant economic growth and influence. There are many similar examples, which I believe the seniors here understand much better than a young person like me.” Speaking of age, Richelle was indeed the youngest among the attendees.
At the age of twenty-five or twenty-six, most people are still doing odd jobs in the office, at best serving as a secretary or assistant to the CEO.
But here was Richelle, even disregarding her position as the CEO of the Lewis Group, her personal achievements in the professional field were the highest among the attendees, unmatched.
And she didn’t boast about her qualifications or achievements, she just presented based on factual data and objective facts.
It could be said that her presentation on the new drug was the most splendid and grand among the speakers.
Originally, after her presentation, her ranking had soared from the bottom, twentieth place, all the way to sixth.
It was probably because Mr. Gregory saw her ranking skyrocket that he couldn’t help but become annoyed and aggressive.
Little did he know that his highly targeted attack not only failed to hit Richelle but actually gave her another opportunity to gain more votes.
His actions even stirred up sympathy from some reviewers. Once Richelle finished her supplementary explanation, her votes continued to rise, and soon she was in first place.
And it was an absolute gap.
Mr. Gregory, watching the rankings on the screen change instantly, gritted his teeth in anger but was helpless to do anything.
Because this so-called reform in the new drug approval process was proposed by him.
He racked his brains to set up this trap just to make Richelle stumble and embarrass herself in public.
In the end, he didn’t see any of that.
What he saw instead were Richelle’s skyrocketing votes and rankings.
Of course, not to mention his soaring blood pressure.
He withdrew his gaze from the big screen, squinted his eyes, and looked at Richelle sitting at the end of the row.
It was as if Richelle sensed his gaze and gave him a slight smile.
This smile ostensibly showed only a simple, polite intention.
But in Mr. Gregory’s view, it was extremely arrogant and provocative.
Soon, the presentations of the remaining five drugs also ended one after another.
Until the voting time expired, Richelle’s drug TTT remained in the first place in both ranking and votes.
Without a doubt, Richelle staged a stunning comeback.
As soon as the conference ended, many attendees came to congratulate Richelle.
“Mr. Dunn, with your company’s new drug, it will be hard to find a substitute in the next twenty years, let alone five or ten. This drug has unlimited potential.” Richelle didn’t wish for the drug to remain prosperous forever, “The disease can actually be treated and prevented. And once cured, it would never recur. So, the original intention of Professor Seaton in developing this drug is to eradicate this disease within ten years.”
These points were not mentioned by Richelle earlier because there was no need.
Secondly, in this profit-driven society, discussing ideals would seem somewhat inappropriate to some who would think she was showing off.
As expected, the CEO of the pharmaceutical company had a disdainful smile on his face.
“Haha, Professor Seaton is a saint, with a grand vision. Us ordinary people, on the other hand, put interest first.”
Richelle didn’t insist on others agreeing with her viewpoint; after all, the world is vast not because of its size, but because it is inhabited by various people with different hearts.
Some astute pharmaceutical CEOs discreetly passed their business cards to Richelle, indicating that their companies had mature production technology and advanced equipment, capable of undertaking large-scale contract manufacturing and OEM business.
Richelle accepted and saved the cards for future reference.
After the seminar, the organizer hosted a small cocktail party to facilitate communication among the attendees.
Richelle wasn’t a fan of such events, but in the future, she would likely represent the Lewis Group, the Dunn Group, or her son’s company in similar situations. Therefore, for the sake of her job, she stayed for the first half of the party.
By two o’clock, she said goodbye to Mr. Simon and left early..
