Early in the morning, a buzzing sound suddenly sounded in the room.
Xiang Gaofei took out his cell phone from under the pillow, turned off the alarm clock, and glanced at the time out of habit, it was eight o'clock sharp.
He immediately sat up straight and got up to get dressed energetically.
I brushed my teeth and washed my face in one minute, then I hugged my son and kissed him hard twice before going out with satisfaction.
It took fifteen minutes to drive to the company, park the car, and hurried to the cafeteria.
At half past eight, it's breakfast time.
There were already long queues of diners in front of several stalls. He looked at the length of the queue and decisively chose the shortest one.
I bought scallion pancakes and soy milk, and they were all gone in a flash. I immediately felt warm in my stomach and comfortable all over.
I swiped my card to enter the laboratory, and it was exactly 8:45.
As soon as I turned on my computer, an important email marked in red popped up.
"Colleagues from the R&D Department, please arrive at the large conference room No. 1 in the Administration Building on time at ten o'clock. This year's President's Award will be announced grandly."
President's Award? What award is this?
I haven't heard of it, but it sounds awesome.
Xiang Gaofei was confused and tried to think back for a long time, but he couldn't remember what kind of prize this was.
He thought mockingly to himself that he might have given awards to the anti-cancer drug and ad specific drug groups again.
Last year, each of the two groups reportedly received a 12-month bonus and was named an outstanding employee of the year.
It can be said to be very envious.
It's really a good time. Unlike the AI pharmaceutical laboratory where he works, there are no breakthrough results yet.
He has been back to China for more than half a year. During the initial probation period, he was still familiar with the operations of the laboratory. After he was able to perform experiments skillfully and produce data, he began to slowly get started.
But he worked very hard. During the probation period, he saw the company's policy of encouraging employees to tinker with new drugs. In order to get started as soon as possible, he kept experimenting with various prescriptions, but the results were not very good. He only produced a bunch of discarded prescriptions and waited until he became familiar with them. After the business was done, it had long been forgotten.
His current boss, Wen Renlong, is warm and friendly, has no airs at all, and takes great care of him. As long as the work is completed on time and with high quality, there is basically no pressure. He is not as harsh as his previous boss in Eagle Country.
The working atmosphere in the entire laboratory is very good. Although there are not many people, everyone gets along like brothers.
His main job now is to analyze drug experimental data and combine it with machine learning algorithms to create molecular prediction models. At the same time, he is also self-taught in synthetic biology. His daily work is busy and fulfilling.
I was originally worried that I would not be able to adapt after returning to China, but the pace of life in Kunming is not as fast as that in first-tier cities, and the work tasks of Sanqing are not heavy. I feel as if I have returned to my college days, and my whole body has settled down. Internet companies are so impatient and under great pressure.
Overall, he still enjoys his current job very much. Although the salary is not comparable to that of code farmers in Yingguo, the housing prices in Kunming are not too high. It is about 10,000 to 20,000 yuan near the industrial park. Generally speaking, the pressure is not great. He is a A person's income is enough to support his family.
When you get your bonus at the end of the year and everything is on track, you can consider settling down, buying a house, and officially settling down.
He was thinking about it, and his colleagues in the laboratory had opened a chat group, and the discussion was in full swing.
"What kind of award is this President's Award? Why haven't I heard of it before?"
"We'll find out in an hour, why are you so anxious?"
"Sounds great, there should be a bonus."
"Our President Wei is always generous and loves to give out money. Such an awesome award must be a lot of money according to his style."
"That's true. Last time he won a bonus of 8 million, he gave each of us 10,000. This time the bonus must be tens of thousands."
"I rubbed my hands excitedly. I wonder which lucky person won the big prize."
"Hehe, I hope he's from our laboratory. I'll definitely ask him to hire our big sword when the time comes."
Xiang Gaofei smiled and did not speak, but concentrated on his work.
This hour is no more or less, just enough to do an experiment, and the data will be available when I get back.
At ten o'clock, when Xiang Gaofei rushed to the conference room, it was darkly filled with people.
This is the largest conference room in Sanqing, which can seat thousands of people. Major meetings or press conferences are usually held here.
He found a chair and sat down in the corner, quietly waiting for the meeting to begin.
Wei Kang walked onto the stage with a smile and looked around.
The scene immediately fell silent, and everyone held their breath, waiting for his speech.
"Everyone should know the purpose of this meeting, so I won't waste your precious time."
Wei Kang got straight to the point and went straight to the point.
"This time I am going to present the President's Award to three employees of Sanqing. You may not know much about this award, so let me introduce it to you first."
"Remember what I told you last year? At that time, I encouraged all R&D personnel to apply for new drug approval and develop new drugs according to their own preferences. As long as they pass the toxicology test, it doesn't matter even if the drug is averagely effective, I will give it to you. Approval of funds.”
"I also said at the time that all project personnel who pass the toxicology test can receive a bonus from me."
"If you are selected by me for follow-up research and development, you can also receive an additional bonus."
"Now, I have compiled a list of people who have passed the toxicology test based on your new drug research and development results. Each person can receive 10,000 yuan."
"However, although I have repeatedly encouraged you not to be afraid of wasting money, unfortunately not many people have listened, so the list is not long, probably around fifty."
"Next I will read the names on the list. Everyone who reads the name will come up to the stage and I will give you red envelopes."
Everyone in the audience was immediately confused, and everyone was surprised.
Although most of them had seen the company's policy, they didn't think much about it.
After all, not everyone has the ability and interest to develop new drugs after work.
Who knew it was true? As long as a new drug is developed and passes the toxicology test, there will be a bonus of 10,000 yuan.
Although it's not a lot, it's still a windfall.
I remember that Mr. Wei said at the time that it didn’t matter even if it was a generic drug, so these 10,000 yuan was simply a gift.
Everyone immediately let out a sigh and beat their chests and feet.
I regret it very much now.
Really, if I had just done it casually, I could have earned this ten thousand yuan.
Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.
Listening to Mr. Wei read the names on the list, and then watching people walking onto the stage with faces full of surprise.
Everyone secretly made up their minds, I can do it with this ten thousand yuan.
After the meeting, I went back and started the new drug project immediately.
Soon, the stage was filled with 51 people, all of them beaming with joy.
Wei Kang looked at the expressions of everyone in the audience and nodded with satisfaction.
Sure enough, these people couldn't shed tears until they saw the coffin, and they started to regret it when they saw someone actually receiving the money.
The demonstration effect of this wave is really strong.
He opened a large pocket at his feet, took out bundles of cash, and distributed them to everyone in turn.
Everyone who received the money was beaming with joy and grinning from ear to ear.
In fact, Wei Kang originally didn't want to make a fortune, so he seemed a bit of a nouveau riche.
But after thinking about it, discovering gold on the spot is the most exciting and can inspire everyone's enthusiasm.
Otherwise, how can we show everyone the prize money? We can’t let the winner show everyone the bank account receipt text message.
Wait for these fifty people to go down with their bonuses.
He couldn't help but smile proudly as he saw everyone whispering and discussing with eagerness to try.
With a slight cough, the scene immediately became quiet again.
"Okay, now comes the President Award that everyone is most concerned about."
"Everyone must be curious about what kind of award this President's Award is. In fact, just like before, it is an award for new drugs that have passed the first clinical phase of research and development."
"But unlike the previous fifty, these three were selected by me for subsequent research and development, so they received additional President's Awards."
"A total of three lucky people won this award by virtue of their own strength and luck."
"They are Wen Renlong, Xiang Gaofei, and Li Zhong."
“Let us give them a warm round of applause and congratulate them on winning this award.”
A thunderous applause broke out, and it took a long time to stop.
"Okay, I know everyone can't hold it in any longer. They all want to know the bonus of the President's Award."
"The answer is revealed, and each winner will receive a bonus of 1 million."
As soon as Wei Kang finished speaking, the whole audience exclaimed.
Everyone showed an expression of disbelief and couldn't help shouting.
"Fuck, a million!"
"Awesome!"
"Windfall from heaven!"
"It's been done!"
Even the three parties involved were surprised and delighted. They were so happy that they didn't know what to say.
Wei Kang stretched out his hand: "Okay, you three, hurry up and come on stage to accept the cheers from everyone."
Wen Renlong sat nearest and was the first to rush onto the stage, smiling from ear to ear and narrowing his eyes.
Li Zhong stood in the crowd, with a fluctuating expression on his face. He didn't react until he was pushed by someone. When he walked onto the stage, his steps staggered a little, as if he was sleepwalking.
Xiang Gaofei stood up from the corner, took a deep breath, suppressed his inner excitement, and slowly walked onto the stage.
The three of them stood on the stage with wonderful expressions on their faces.
Amidst warm applause, the three people received a huge check with 1,000,000 written on it, with six zeros.
Wei Kang spoke again amidst the applause.
"In addition to the President's Award, the three of them will also receive the title of Pharmacist Hunter. Each time they win the President's Award in the future, they will receive a star. Now they are one-star Pharmacist Hunters."
"Samsung pharmacists will receive the most valuable employee award, receive a lifetime employment contract with the company, work in the company until retirement, and receive a pension based on their average annual income before retirement."
"Even if your business capabilities decline due to other reasons, you can be transferred to a non-core position and continue to work until retirement. After retirement, your pension will continue to be paid. In short, unless the company goes bankrupt, the company promises to provide for you throughout your life."
"The five-star medicine hunter will get a huge surprise!"
"We can't announce it yet, but trust me, you won't be disappointed."
After Wei Kang finished speaking with a smile, there was a storm in the audience.
Deafening applause resounded throughout the audience, almost lifting the ceiling.
Everyone was excited and clapped wildly.
The applause lasted for a long time and no one stopped.
The three people on the stage had dull expressions on their faces. Wen Renlong was better off. He had always been proud of his talent and never worried about work.
But other migrant workers had tears in their eyes and passion in their chests.
These days, even the country says that you have to rely on yourself to provide for your retirement, but there are actually companies that promise to provide for their employees in their retirement years.
This boss is really awesome.
It's so touching.
Although several conditions must be met to produce new drugs that can be developed for subsequent development.
But everyone looked at Li Zhong and Xiang Gaofei and felt that they could do it too.
After all, it is not said that innovative drugs must be invented. As long as you try a few more times, a blind cat can also hit a dead mouse.
At this moment, everyone's psychology is ready to move.
Everyone’s enthusiasm for research and development was completely ignited.
