TSM Chapter 57

Fire trucks sped toward the inferno, water cannons spraying, finally extinguishing the flames and turning them into black smoke. The firefighters’ timely arrival prevented this deliberate crime, which was only half completed. A motorcycle sped away, leaving a trail of brazenness. Fortunately, there were no casualties.

Zuǒ Yú leaned against the front of a car, his cold eyes narrowed, exhaling smoke while indifferently surveying the scene before him. A strange smile curled his lips as he threw his cigarette on the ground and crushed it ruthlessly with his heel. After reporting the fire, he had lost count of how many cigarettes he had smoked. The entire blackened area was filled with the strong scent of nicotine, and cigarette butts littered the slightly damp ground around his feet.

“As expected, it’s still related to the *Twilight* Bar? This dark force finally couldn’t resist making a move on me…”

The three-day, two-night medical seminar, hosted by Yǐnghǎi Ān’ěr Pharmaceuticals, would be held at the Háosēn Hotel, with all expenses paid for attendees who presented their invitation letters.

…

Yǐnghǎi.

In the black Aston Martin, Yǐn Yuè sat in the driver’s seat and stepped on the gas…

“Uncle Lí, long time no see.” Yǐn Yuè chuckled and gave Uncle Lí a hug. “Where’s my mom?”

Uncle Lí looked at Yǐn Yuè’s back, unconsciously touched the temples of his glasses, and muttered, “This brat!” He smiled with affection.

Inside the Ān’ěr Group’s laboratory, Léi Yè was discussing issues related to biopharmaceuticals with a group of experts. Biopharmaceuticals, produced through the cultivation of living cells or microorganisms, are created by modifying cells to produce the active substances in the biopharmaceutical.

The modified cells are expanded to the target density and then cryopreserved in cryovials in the cell bank, accessible only to authorized personnel. Before being used for production, cell samples need to be extracted from the cell bank and passaged and proliferated in the fermentation tank of the bioreactor.

By using a culture medium rich in nutrients and conducive to cell growth, cell passage, proliferation, and expansion of production volume are promoted. This process provides the cells with optimal growth conditions and allows them to produce a sufficient number for subsequent cultivation in the bioreactor. They are currently developing an advanced version of Canakinumab, a 3.0 human anti-1L-1β monoclonal antibody.

Yǐn Yuè changed into sterile clothing and entered the room. The woman before his eyes was focused on various reagents, her medium-short hair styled back with hair wax, looking capable and efficient – a quintessential domineering female CEO, still charming despite the passage of time.

“Ms. Léi, long time no see.”

Léi Yè paused slightly and turned around, meeting Yǐn Yuè’s smiling eyes. Her expression was serious and stern, without any sentimental reunion scenes. She directly ordered him, “Come over and help.”

Well… that was very Léi Yè, very strong and good at disguising.

Yǐn Yuè was embarrassed, his brows furrowing. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “The temperature is too high, the dissolved oxygen is insufficient, and the pH value is beyond the standard.”

Yǐn Yuè was silent… Léi Yè glanced at him coldly, “If you don’t stay, don’t be so critical.”

“…”

“Aren’t you going?”

…

In the evening, in the courtyard of the Léi family, Léi Yè, Yǐn Yuè, and Yǐn Yuè’s cousin, Léi Kěmèng, sat together around a long table, eating dishes cooked by Uncle Lí.

“Uncle Lí, sit down and eat with us.” Yǐn Yuè pulled out the chair next to him, signaling Uncle Lí to sit down.

Uncle Lí looked at Léi Yè. “Sit down!” Léi Yè said indifferently.

“Léi Kěmèng, eat your own food!” Léi Yè frowned.
