"Interesting."
In the first class cabin seat.
Tang Qing’s lips suddenly curved upwards, and in the projection of his glasses, a large group of people were passionately arguing, clamoring loudly, so lively that some even began banging on the table in arousal.
Luckily.
All present were distinguished figures, so no fights broke out.
"..."
"I disagree, the pharmacology of the Transcription Fluid is unclear, it may cure cancer in the short term, but whether there are long-term risks still needs time to be tested; it must go through our clinical and Medicine approval processes."
"Outdated."
"I am responsible for the safety of people."
"Responsible? Then why aren’t you responsible for those who might die of the disease soon?"
"Please do not equivocate."
"You are committing murder..."
"..."
"I think we should still be cautious. If the production of Transcription Fluid can be set up in our country, it’s not out of consideration."
"Do you think you’re smarter than others?"
"..."
"I will learn more about it."
"..." 𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒑𝙪𝙗.𝙘𝒐𝙢
"Our debt level is already very high."
"..."
At this moment.
In India, there is an ongoing debate about whether to open up Medical Loans, with over a dozen departments including Finance, Ministry of Health, Drug Administration, Central Bank, Commercial Bank, Civil Affairs gathered, creating a noisy uproar.
Some agree.
Some oppose.
There are also those who muddy the waters and those who abstain; these four types of people are forever present in such meetings.
Medical.
The interests involved are too great.
Pharmaceutical companies in India, like those in Europe and America, are not state-owned; that brings obvious results. Unlike in Huaxia, where the higher-ups decide to do something and the domestic pharmaceutical companies can only comply with the bigger picture.
Here.
Capital holds great power.
The bigger picture?
They don’t care about that.
What’s real is the money in their pockets.
Faced with a dilemma, if you follow the suggestions of the Myanmar Pharmaceutical Group and import Transcription Fluid, you must use their Medical Big Data and the usage of the Medicine goes back to the national Ministry of Health.
How could this be allowed.
What about everyone’s jobs?
Therefore.
They attempt to use their connections and influence to prevent the approval from above, and thus, the arguments turn intense like this, and this isn’t even a public meeting. For approval to be passed, it still needs to be voted by the Parliament.
However.
If the attitudes of these people could be ascertained, the parliamentary vote wouldn’t have any major issues, but the problem is, how to deal with these relevant stakeholders, becomes the headache for the person in charge.
On the airplane.
Tang Qing listened to the various parties’ noise.
As if watching a comedy.
Anyway.
It would definitely pass eventually.
If it passes the initial evaluation phase and moves to the stage of being presented to both houses for voting, the passage of Medical Loan is almost certain. Therefore, the opposition is so agitated at this meeting.
Trying to interrupt the process.
Regrettably.
They underestimated the determination of the upper classes in India.
Department interests.
Argue all you can.
But.
If it conflicts with the national interest, it is like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. After watching for over an hour, Tang Qing turned off the projection, and as expected, it passed by a majority vote, and would soon be presented to the lower house for voting.
The motion has only one.
Loan Asia Dollars from Myanmar Bank to pay for medical expenses, supporting only diseases treated with Transcription Fluid. Common cold, fever, or treatments in other domestic hospitals in India, do not enjoy this loan.
Otherwise.
That’s laughable.
It’s the pharmaceutical companies in India.
However.
Given their pace.
The fastest they could have a resolution ready won’t be until March.
"Boss Tang, which satellite company’s service did you use for the communication?" Ma Yun approached after the meeting. During the meeting, he occasionally glanced at Tang Qing and noticed him zoning out and chuckling from time to time.
Probably thinking about something pleasant.
"A new commercial satellite company. You probably haven’t heard of it. Once Ali’s official jet arrives, I’ll have someone set it up for you, and we’ll waive the fee," Tang Qing vaguely answered generously.
Listening to the words and the tone.
Ma Yun knew Tang Qing didn’t want to discuss it further.
So be it.
If he doesn’t want to talk, then he doesn’t want to talk.
Speaking of satellite companies.
They really exist, and Tang Qing isn’t just making it up. Moreover, they indeed own five commercial satellites, divided among three companies, providing high-speed information services for Tang Qing’s legitimate global businesses.
As for the quantum satellite.
It serves merely as a backup measure.
Should the regular satellite communication quality falter, the quantum satellite would provide data optimization. Such wasteful and redundant methods are something only someone as idle as Tang Qing could afford.
Rich.
Considerable funds accumulated through the Pixiu Plan.
Constantly pushing the limits each day.
Especially now, with fifty percent of Europe’s and over thirty percent of the global legal gambling industry controlled by the fighters, describing their financial expansion speed as ’money coming in buckets’ doesn’t quite capture it.
Buying sports teams.
Buying companies.
Buying satellites.
Buying ships.
Buying anything they see as useful in the future first, and aside from the necessary fund reserves, converting money to assets is safer, as the speed of money accumulating is frightfully fast.
...
Over seven hours later.
The airplane was about to enter Swiss airspace, and everyone gathered in the cabin. Unfortunately, it was all clouds below, obscuring the ground. Because we’ve been ’chasing the sun,’ it’s been bright outside all along.
Switzerland.
One of the richest countries in Europe, thriving on finance and living tastefully, compared to some other European countries, the people here are relatively industrious and not as lethargic as those in Greece.
On the airplane.
Inside the cabin.
"Huh, my weather forecast shows a huge blizzard here, why don’t I see any dark clouds?" Zeng Rou checked her mobile phone, the location was very accurate, and the weather update had also switched to Switzerland.
"..."
Others looked at Zeng Rou.
"Why are you looking at me?"
"We are in the sky."
Tang Qing gently reminded.
"I know that, but the clouds below are so white," Zeng Rou asked perplexed. Eventually, Lin Jiaxue took over to explain; after a while, Zeng Rou gave a bitter smile, realizing she had a sudden drop in intelligence upon waking up.
A reflection.
A transmission.
In the sky.
There are no dark clouds.
Half an hour later.
The clouds dispersed.
Unfortunately, it’s winter now, and there was snow last night, covering the verdant mountains in dazzling white. The occasionally glimpsed small towns and farms also appeared very blurry. Tang Qing specifically chose the time after a recent snowfall for the visit.
Shanghai Stock Market had only one snowfall this year.
And it melted quickly.
To see snow.
One must go to the North.
Approaching our destination—Zurich. This city, the richest in all of Europe, is relatively low-profile compared to Switzerland’s capital, only ranked fourth in renown within Switzerland.
Airplane landing.
They went to handle the immigration procedures. Davos is just a small town in Switzerland with an airport, and although there are many airports, they are not international airports, hence unable to process immigration, thus the necessity for this trip first.
Just strolling around casually.
As the richest city in all of Europe, there are indeed many places to explore, and also because finance is well-developed, and with many tycoons around, this place also serves as an important financial pool for the fighters.
