12: Chapter 12 Are you talking about this kind of perfume? 12: Chapter 12 Are you talking about this kind of perfume? Lin’s Group, truly deserving of its reputation as the symbolic enterprise of Linchuan City, used an entire twelve-story building as its headquarters. The building’s interior facilities were complete, and each floor was an independent department, detailed in its division of labor and impressive in its magnificence—not to mention the particularly abundant sight of cool and refreshing beauties. After entering the company, Li Chen wandered around on his own to familiarize himself with the company environment. At the same time, he noticed something quite strange. In the middle of the building, several floors were actually vacant, with only a department sign hanging. Apart from that, they were empty, without a single person in sight! “It seems like there might be some issues inside Lin’s Group! But this is also good. In the headquarters of a large conglomerate, suddenly adding anything wouldn’t draw attention. It’s about time I check out the laboratory.” After touring so many places, Li Chen was, of course, most concerned about the laboratory! Given the scale and status of Lin’s Group in Linchuan City, their laboratory definitely wouldn’t be subpar, but whether it could be used to produce the Z substance remained to be seen. After all, developing cosmetics and producing the Z substance are two entirely different things. Upon reaching the ninth floor, the security measures were noticeably stricter. Fortunately, as the lunch break was coming to an end, Li Chen followed a few employees returning from lunch and quickly blended into the laboratory’s lobby. The laboratory was bustling with many people, but Li Chen had no interest in conversing with them, as his goal was the various experimental instruments laid out on the tables, While walking and observing, an excited expression soon appeared on Li Chen’s face, “I didn’t expect the instruments in this laboratory to be quite good. Just need to add a few special instruments, and it should be nearly possible to produce the Z substance! Heh, fortune favors the brave, and having a beautiful wife is quite useful after all.” Previously, Li Chen’s laboratory in North America had been destroyed, and together with the sudden betrayal of Ghost King and Wild Wolf, the whole affair was permeated with an odd sense of eeriness from start to finish. Without figuring out the enemy’s scheme, Li Chen couldn’t possibly place all his hopes on Alice anymore. “Ah, I almost forgot! That bargain wife of mine has never looked kindly upon me. If I directly ask her to borrow a laboratory, she’ll definitely think I’m crazy again.” Li Chen continued to walk forward, while calculating in his mind how to approach Lin Yi in a reasonable manner without arousing her suspicion too much. But just as Li Chen took a few steps, the voice of Lin Yi, tinged with dissatisfaction and anger, came from ahead, “Still no good? Ferdinand’s team had already tried to produce a sample of a new type of perfume last time. Could someone tell me why, even though you perfumers were all present at that time, now you can’t achieve even a third of that quality?” Today at noon, Lin Yi’s carefully prepared meal at Cloud Top Hotel was utterly ruined! Ferdinand and his team did not show up, and only an assistant came to tell Lin Yi that they wanted seventy percent of the profits and all the patent rights, or they would cancel the previous verbal agreement! Seventy percent of the profits! For the chance to make Lin’s Group one of the top corporations in the world, Lin Yi gritted her teeth and could agree to that. But if they couldn’t even secure the patent rights, it was tantamount to handing over the future destiny of Lin’s Group entirely to someone else. Lin Yi certainly could not stand by and watch the enterprise she had built with her own hands be destroyed! Moreover, the other party obviously had no sincerity in cooperation, leaving Lin Yi no choice but to return disappointed. After coming back from Cloud Top Hotel, Lin Yi placed her last hopes on the few perfumers of the company. During Ferdinand and his team’s inspection period at Lin’s Group, they had once created a sample of a new perfume in the laboratory. Although Lin Yi didn’t have the formula on her side, some of the materials previously purified were still left in the laboratory. Perhaps, with the perfumers’ years of experience and the memory of observing the process, they might have had a chance to successfully create it. In any case, even if there was just a sliver of hope, Lin Yi wouldn’t give up! But Lin Yi gravely underestimated the difficulty of formulating this new type of perfume, and the company’s perfumers had failed twice in a row in their attempts. There were only scant amounts of materials left, certainly not enough for a third trial. “President Lin, we really did our best! Ferdinand’s research team is one of the top in the world, and without the formula, it’s only possible to succeed after many experiments, consuming a great deal of manpower and resources,” said Wang Lei, the chief perfumer of Lin’s Group, with a shameful expression. Developing a perfume isn’t hard, but achieving world-class quality is extremely difficult. With Lin’s Group’s current research capabilities, it’s simply unrealistic. Everyone present understood this, and Lin Yi did too, but she just couldn’t accept it! She was just one step away from success, but still, she faced failure! Just one step, and Lin’s Group could have developed this perfume, but it was this very step that was so incredibly difficult to cross. Without overcoming this step, Lin’s Group could never hope to become one of the top companies in the world. Lin Yi’s face was filled with frustration, her beautiful eyes clouded with desolation. Was there really no solution? Wang Lei was also discontented. As the chief perfumer of Lin’s Group, his inability to fulfill the task given by Lin Yi was a heavy responsibility. The rest of the people in the laboratory remained silent and speechless. Perfume wasn’t something you could just concoct out of thin air—the formula and proportions varied enormously, and even a minor difference could cause a dramatic change in scent.
