The door opened automatically. Feng Lin was surprised to see that the blonde office lady was already standing outside. It was none other than the HR supervisor, Isabella.
Looking at Feng Lin's spirited appearance, she smiled charmingly. "Seems like you had a good rest yesterday. Today is your first day here. Let me bring you around to familiarize you with the company's situation! "
Feng Lin nodded.
The two of them walked toward the interior of the company.
Isabella's figure was enchanting, and her long legs were soul-stirring. She walked like a cat, and her hips swayed, revealing a perfect S-shaped curve. She exuded the charm of a mature woman.
However, Feng Lin didn't notice this scene. He lowered his head and pondered silently, feeling that something was wrong.
This Isabella was the HR supervisor of a large company, while he was just a genetic researcher intern. Yet, she personally came to receive him? Was she placing too much importance on him?
Feng Lin didn't think that he was an absolute genius that people would feel at a glance. How could he be regarded so highly?
Hopefully, he didn't overthink things.
Walking down the escalator, Feng Lin followed Isabella and continued toward the interior of the company.
From afar, the sound of machines rumbling could be heard. As they got closer, the sound became clearer and clearer.
"Now, let's go and take a look at the nutrient fluid manufacturing factory of the Giant Pharmaceutical Company!" Isabella smiled as she led the way. When they walked out, a scene of bustling industry appeared before their eyes.
Machines were operating, and intelligent robots were shuttling about. From the processing of raw materials to the production of finished products, it was a completely automated production line. As there was no need for manual labor, the production efficiency was high, and the cost was greatly reduced.
In fact, with the development of technology, industrial production could already be fully automated. There was no need for manual labor, except for gene potions and a few other fields.
Gene potions had to be personally concocted by humans. Hence, manual labor was indispensable.
And the energy industry was another reason.
Right now, humanity's common energy source was a technological creation known as the Troth Overpressure Closed Electric Coil. It could store a large amount of electricity in a closed superconductor. It had a long lifespan, fast charging, and clean energy without any pollution.
The disadvantage was that when it was manufactured, it would create a large amount of electromagnetic waves that would interfere with the operation of the machine.
And the price of industrial robots that could shield against such electromagnetic waves was also very expensive. Only large companies could afford it.
Hence, some small companies and family factories would use a large amount of cheap labor.
If Feng Lin hadn't escaped from his clan, he might very well have entered his clan's energy factory to produce the Telos Electric Coil.
What the Giant Pharmaceutical Company produced was ordinary nutrient fluids. Naturally, there weren't many details to pay attention to. It was a completely mechanized production process. Each batch of nutrient fluids would have over 500 bottles, and the production process wouldn't even take half a second.
From Feng Lin's point of view, this was no longer a nutrient solution. Instead, it was shiny and shiny star coins.
What did it mean to make huge profits with a small capital?
This was it!
A bottle of low-grade nutrient fluid cost 1 Star Coin, and a bottle of mid-grade nutrient fluid cost tens of Star Coins. High-grade nutrient fluids cost hundreds of Star Coins, and some even cost over a thousand Star Coins.
Based on Feng Lin's estimation, this nutrient solution factory of the Giant Pharmaceutical Company could produce at least 1,000 bottles of low-grade nutrient solution, 100 bottles of mid-grade nutrient solution, and 1 bottle of high-grade nutrient solution per second.
He couldn't even count how much money he could earn in a single day.
This was not producing nutrient solutions; it was simply printing money.
But this wasn't the end yet. To the Giant Pharmaceutical Company, an oligarch in the genetic potion field in the solar system, the additional value of nutrient fluids was too low. It was merely a basic industry.
The true way to make money was to produce genetic potions.
"Come here!" Isabella smiled mysteriously. She led Feng Lin past the nutrient solution factory and arrived at another workshop.
Many bottles of amber-colored translucent potions were produced. All sorts of strange materials were crushed into powder by the machines and refined into liquid, creating many bottles of potions.
Finally, tiny needles were inserted into the silver sand-like substance and stirred it evenly.
That was spirit sand!
"They are producing potions of life!" Feng Lin could tell and instinctively said.
"Good eyesight!" Isabella praised. "As expected of a genius who could become a genetic researcher at such a young age!"
She didn't stop and continued to lead Feng Lin forward. Very soon, they arrived at a factory that seemed to be a large-scale laboratory.
Feng Lin saw a group of people in white robes concentrating on using the machines in their hands to concoct potions.
The difference was that their potions weren't completely concocted by hand. The parts of the potions that didn't require spirit particles to be added were all synthesized by machines, making them into semi-finished products. Only when the last step, "Spirit Sensing", couldn't be completed by machines would they personally concoct the spirit particles in the potions, allowing them to reach the optimal state.
One couldn't help but say that this was indeed a smart method.
However, after observing for a while, Feng Lin discovered that this method needed to be discussed. There were pros and cons.
Because the concoction of the potions were all synthesized by machines, it was inevitable that people wouldn't be able to accurately grasp the medicinal properties. The effect of the Spirit Sensing would decrease, but at the same time, the production efficiency would increase by at least five times.
When the quality of the individual potions decreased, the price would also decrease. However, due to the explosive increase in production, the total value would increase greatly instead.
Simply put, this was a smart and slightly sinister method.
Feng Lin also discovered that these people in white robes were all genetic researchers. He couldn't help but ask, "Is this the place where I'll be working in the future?"
Isabella shook her head and smiled. "No! Feng Lin, after the interview yesterday, the five interviewers unanimously agreed that your mythological knowledge and genetic theory are extremely solid. Although your concoction techniques are rusty, your personality is calm and you're a rare, high-quality talent. The main interviewer yesterday was the Head Frank of our company's genetic potion research and development department. He specially asked for you. Hence, after taking a look at the company's layout, I'll send you to the research and development department and you'll join them in the research! "
"Research and development department!" Feng Lin was bewildered. This was the core department of a high-tech company, yet he was being regarded so highly. He was even joining such an important department the moment he arrived.
Although he wasn't sure of the reason, it was a good thing to be regarded highly in a new company.
"I wonder what exactly the research and development department is here for?" Feng Lin's heart stirred as he asked.
"Seems like you're in a rush. In that case, let's go now and meet your new colleagues!" Isabella smiled and walked forward. "Follow me!"
As she walked, she introduced the general situation of the research and development department to Feng Lin. "In order to maintain the competitiveness of the market, we have to keep on developing new products. Hence, the research and development department's main focus is to research new genetic potions and use them on white mice. Once the medicinal properties have matured, we'll produce them in large quantities and sell them to the market to earn profits! "
Feng Lin kept nodding as he listened. He felt that what she said was very logical and didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it.
A heavy metal door silently opened. Feng Lin followed Isabella's footsteps and entered a new space.
The surrounding walls were all constructed from high-tensile alloys. There weren't any gaps at all.
Numerous genetic researchers were shuttling about, frantically bustling about. The atmosphere was filled with a strong research atmosphere.
This was the core technical department of the company. If one wanted to learn about geneticists, coming to the research and development department would definitely be the right choice.
Feng Lin nodded, feeling very satisfied with this job.
However, as he swept his gaze around, he discovered that something was wrong.
In the surroundings of the research and development department, there were sealed glass cabins filled with red liquid. There was a naked person floating in each of them. Their mouths and noses were covered with masks, providing oxygen.
Numerous thin tubes were inserted into their bodies.
These genetic researchers would concoct all sorts of strange genetic potions and inject them into their bodies through the tubes.
The expressions of those people instantly turned to one of agony. Their bodies convulsed as if they were white mice in a laboratory.
Feng Lin's heart sank to the bottom. He finally knew what the white mice Isabella was talking about earlier were!
