"Maybe it's true, maybe it's exaggerated? This is a matter for their R&D and marketing departments; I don't really understand it."
Su Yi opened his mouth with a perfunctory answer.
He couldn't be clearer about what Yue Ling was talking about.
It was the source of all power in the magical world: magic.
The so-called life essence was probably just something she made up.
This sounded more in line with modern science and was easier for people to accept; directly saying 'magic' would be a bit too outrageous.
"This is a major matter; if it's true, I..." Old Man Lin's expression was solemn, but he paused halfway through his sentence, then laughed:
"What does it matter to a retired old man like me? Do whatever you want. But I'll remind you, people from above will definitely come looking for you about this matter later. I can't handle it for you; I'm afraid you'll have to figure it out yourself."
Su Yi naturally agreed readily.
...
The product launch came to an end, but a new era was thus unveiled.
It's just that the vast majority of people in the vortex didn't realize how important the things that Yue Ling and Tianyu Medical showed were.
The hot topic online right now is still about the Water of Life. The concept of life essence sounds a bit mysterious, and since it was mentioned during a subsequent media interview, many people don't consider it that formal.
So, it hasn't spread as widely.
It doesn't have a high level of attention among the general public.
But in academic circles, the level of discussion about life essence is extremely high.
In the past two days, people have been constantly visiting Su Yi and Yue Ling. Even after he used Old Man Lin as a shield to turn people away, some people specifically went to find Zhou Yan.
By the way, with the supply of the Water of Life, Zhou Yan's fracture healed in just one day.
Su Yi originally planned to give him a few days off, but this guy is a workaholic; he went straight back to work as soon as he recovered.
He even announced his injury and the process of using the Water of Life for treatment.
With other drugs, people might make conspiracy theories like, "Do you see real rich people using it?" "Do you see people in pharmaceutical companies using it themselves?"
But it's obviously not going to work with the Water of Life.
Zhou Yan, a senior executive of Tianyu Group, set an example by personally using the medicine, which can be said to have heavily promoted the product.
As a result, the first batch of 100,000 bottles of the basic version of the Water of Life pre-sold on Tianyu Group's official website were completely pre-ordered before they were even shipped.
Tianyu Medical directly earned nearly 900 million.
Saying it's printing money is an understatement.
And behind the uproar on the internet and the sales boom of the Water of Life,
Su Yi has another thing to do.
That is about Zhou Yan's car accident.
This car accident couldn't be accidental; it was a warning from certain interest groups to him and Tianyu Group.
Su Yi has never been a good-tempered person. Since someone provoked him first, there's no way this matter can be settled like this.
The press conference has ended, but the reckoning is just beginning.
He first found the hit-and-run driver who was detained by the police.
The driver insisted that he was too tired from driving for too long, which is why he crashed into Zhou Yan's car.
After learning about Zhou Yan's identity and situation, the police obviously knew that this matter couldn't be that simple.
They are currently investigating and looking for evidence.
But this matter is very simple for Su Yi.
He just took Yue Ling to take a look at the hit-and-run driver, and without even saying a word, the driver, who had insisted during the interrogation that no one had instructed him, shouted that he wanted to turn himself in and confessed everything he knew.
The general situation is that the driver is a gambler who owed several million in gambling debts and couldn't pay it back. Then, a few days ago, his creditors came to his door and said they wanted him to do something. If he succeeded, not only would these gambling debts be written off, but he would also be given another 500,000 as a settlement fee when he got out.
The driver wasn't stupid; at first, he thought they were asking him to kill someone or something, and he didn't dare to agree at all.
After the other party finished telling him what they wanted him to do, knowing that he only needed to cause a car accident and didn't even need to kill anyone,
He immediately agreed.
Car accidents happen so often every day, and as long as no one is killed, it's not a big deal after all.
This driver even optimistically believed that he might not even have to go to jail.
And then he did it.
The process was quite simple.
With his confession, the police arrested the "creditor" who hired him on the same day.
After Yue Ling used a little trick, this creditor naturally confessed everything readily.
Following the clues, all the leads eventually pointed to a man named Tao Weimin.
This person is considered an extremely prominent figure in a place like Shanghai.
He owns a pharmaceutical company with annual revenue of hundreds of billions and is also the chairman of "Kangxin" Group.
Kangxin Group has more than a hundred private hospitals and is definitely a giant in the Kyushu private healthcare system.
With Tao Weimin's status, if it weren't for Su Yi having Old Man Lin and Lin Jianye, the city's guardian, supporting him behind the scenes,
And the extremely fast investigation speed thanks to Yue Ling's magic.
This case would probably have stalled halfway through.
Even so, if Su Yi didn't care after things got to this point, Tao Weimin probably wouldn't be punished in any way.
He could even clear himself of any involvement with just a little effort.
The old inspector in charge of the case didn't even have the desire to arrest him at first after finding out about him, thinking it was completely useless.
It's useless to arrest him, and it's easy to get into trouble.
It was only after Su Yi brought up Lin Jianye that he reluctantly went to Kangxin Group's headquarters to detain Tao Weimin.
What the old inspector didn't expect was that a person like Tao Weimin didn't even have a trace of refusing to communicate, waiting for a lawyer, or arguing after being arrested.
As soon as he entered the police station, he burst into tears and admitted his crimes.
Not only was it this time that he spent money to hire someone to cause a car accident,
But also the previous ones.
What about covering up medical malpractice and disregarding human life, beating the patient's family to death.
What about forcibly demolishing residential buildings to build new hospitals, resulting in several deaths and injuries.
There's also the unspoken rule with female doctors, leading to them jumping off buildings.
It can be said that his crimes are countless and too numerous to record.
The most important thing is that all of this was said in the interrogation room of the police station in front of the camera.
Even the police station was strictly following the procedures from the beginning to arrest such a big shot, for fear of being caught and used as a handle.
So, from the beginning of the operation to arrest people, there were law enforcement recorders with more than one camera recording the entire process, until the person was taken into the interrogation room. In addition to the surveillance in the interrogation room, the interrogating inspector was also wearing a law enforcement recorder.
It can be completely determined that no illegal means such as torture to extract a confession were used against Tao Weimin; he voluntarily confessed everything himself.
He not only confessed his crimes but even told where his evidence was hidden.
Inside, there was not only evidence of various homicides but also evidence of his tax evasion.
It's direct evidence, and it can be said that there is no possibility of overturning the case.
The old inspector in charge of the case was stunned.
He had handled cases for a lifetime and had never encountered a situation where a criminal confessed everything as soon as he arrived.
He encountered it four or five times today, and the big fish he caught at the end also obediently confessed.
He solved a headless case that he thought would never produce any results in just one day.
This is really outrageous.
