Chapter 802
Everyone was confused when Secretary Wen took out a small rectangr que that was roughly
the size of an identification card. He handed it to Fade and exined, "Mr. Chen, this is a Special
Contribution Award in medicine that was personally awarded by Director Qi. With this award, you
could enter various Drug Administration freely and have a council with Director Qi. You could also
enjoy some special tax rebates and subsidies if you open a pharmaceuticalpany."
Fade was not fazed when Secretary Wen announced the benefits entailed with the award. However,
the other guests were buzzing with excitement.
In particr, the guests, who ran their own businesses, were so envious of the benefits that their
eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
They were businessmen. Naturally, they knew the huge benefits that came with an official subsidy.
Moreover, the award did not only include concessions and subsidies but also showed Director Qi''s
appreciation.
To some extent, Director Qi''s attitude was even more important than concessions and subsidies.
After all, one just needed to show this award, and Drug Administrations all over the world would
give the green light to everything and not interfere.
Everyone was shocked. The trace of admiration and amazement was clear in their eyes.
Even Lewis could not believe his ears. It should be noted that even the Chung family, who had
spent years building up their business in Capital City, was not able to enjoy such benefits even
though they were to the higher-ups.
Who would have thought that Fade would be highly-valued by Director Qi? He was bewildered and
envious at the same time.
Secretary Wen nced at the noisy crowd around him and exined with a smile, "I know you all
must be wondering what Mr. Chen did to deserve this award."
Everyone nodded with a curious look.
Secretary Wen chuckled and continued clearly, "In my opinion, it''s reasonable for Mr. Chen to
receive such amendation. In fact, this award could not bepared to Mr. Chen''s
contributions."
As soon as he finished, everyone was even more shocked and confused.
Lewis and Graham frowned. They felt that something was wrong.
Meanwhile, Secretary Wen continued exining,
"I''m sure most of you heard about the shortage of Alstom Antibiotic in our country some time ago!"
The crowd could not help but nod when they heard Secretary Wen. Naturally, even if they were not
part of the pharmaceutical industry, they knew about it because it was all over the news.
Secretary Wen continued, "Back then, Bald Eagle Pharma in Micovia blocked patents and restricted
the use of Alstom Antibiotic in our country. They threatened us to purchase the right to use their
patents at a very high price."
"As you all know, this will affect billions of people in our country. We had to make sure that we came
up with the right solution or it might threaten the lives of our citizens. Purchasing the expensive
patents from Micovia would even deal with a detrimental blow to our country''s pharmaceutical
industry. Both solutions were bleak to our country."

"At this critical moment, Mr. Chen led a team of researchers and resolved the patents blockade
done by Micovia''s Bald Eagle Pharma. He and his team came up with a substitute for Alstom
Antibiotic, which was named Ephedra Syrup. With his stroke of genius, he managed to solve the
crisis." "Additionally, Mr. Chen was also very noble. After sessfully developing Ephedra Syrup,
he allowed the country''s pharmaceutical industry to use Ephedra Syrup for free and did not make
money from our citizens. This move has benefited billions of citizens and hundreds of thousands of
medical-rted firms in our country."
"Sowhat do you guys think? The award means nothingpared to Mr. Chen''s contribution, right?"
The entire room was silent when Secretary Wen finished. Everyone was shocked and they stared at
Fade with their jaws dropped.
It never crossed their minds that Fade was the one who developed Ephedra Syrup. No wonder
Director Qi valued Fade so much that he sent Secretary Wen to present Fade with this award.
Suddenly, the crowd started buzzing with excitement. Everyone in the room was thrilled.
Meanwhile, Lewis had a ghastly look on his face as his mind went nk.
On the other hand, Secretary Wen reached out to take Fade''s hand and uttered softly,
"Congrattions, Mr. Chen. Director Qi appreciates and values you for your help. By the way,
Director Qi also realized that you developed Life Elixir Wine. He heard that the effect of Life Elixir
Wine is very good and that it was beneficial to many diseases."
"So, Director Qi asked me to tell you that he can help you promote Life Elixir Wine if you''re up for it."
Fade smiled when he heard this. He was about to agree when he suddenly recalled something. He
nced at Lewis and replied, "Secretary Wen, I''m more than happy if Director Qi is willing to help
me promote Life Elixir Wine. However, someone just told me that they will cklist Life Elixir Wine. I
am afraid that..."
"What?!" Secretary Wen''s face turned cold as he shouted, "Who has the audacity to cklist Mr.
Chen''s products without any reason?"
Lewis, who still looked shocked and nk, suddenly snapped back to his senses when he heard
this. His face changed and he waved his hand hurriedly. He wanted to exin, "Secretary Wen, Mr.
Chen, I..."
However, his mobile phone rang, interrupting his exnation. The person on the other end of the
call immediately spoke when Lewis picked up the call.
Moreover, the voice of that person rang across the room because Lewis forgot to turn off the
speaker mode.
"Mr. Chung, we ran into some problems while trying to remove Life Elixir Wine from the market like
you asked. The person you suggested wasing up with all sorts of excuses. How about I look for
some higher-ups to deal with this? We canpletely cklist Life Elixir Wine like this!"
Lewis''s face immediately turned pale upon hearing this. He eximed hurriedly, "What cklist?
What nonsense are you talking about? I did not say such things. Don''t you dare do anything rash?"
After that, Lewis hung up without allowing the other person to reply.
He forced a smile and tried to exin, "Secretary Wen, Mr. Chen, this is really a misunderstanding,
I..."
Fade snorted, "Misunderstanding? Everyone definitely heard you when you said that you wanted to
cklist Life Elixir Wine just now! How did that end up being a misunderstanding?"
Secretary Wen frowned upon hearing this and asked in a cold voice, "Lewis, what''s going on?"
Lewis knew that he was backed into a corner and he suddenly knelt down in front of Fade bitterly.
He begged in a choked voice, "Mr. Chen, it''s my fault. I listened to the wrong person and targeted
you. I know I was wrong but I promise that I will never do it again."
As Lewis spoke, he stole a nce at Graham deliberately. He was implying to the crowd that it was
Graham who was behind it.
