78: Chapter 78 The Biggest Medical News of the Year

It was already late at night when Pellegrini returned to his home in the government residence district; the lady of the house thought a brazen thief had broken in.

"Darling, what happened to you? Were you robbed by thugs?"

The woman, who had risen in her pajamas, gasped immediately upon seeing her husband's condition. He was disheveled, haggard, and messy, looking as if he had been violated, yet who would dare lay a hand on her husband in this land?

Pellegrini sat silently on the sofa. He had been cursed; from now on, he had a Master above him—an entrepreneur who had previously been insignificant in his eyes.

But remembering what that young man had said, Pellegrini couldn't help but have some thoughts. If he didn't have unspeakable secrets, why would he be at the front?

"I'm fine."

Pellegrini hugged his wife. The faint fragrance wafting into his nostrils stirred his heart, and he immediately had a reaction.

It was actually real!

At night, a car glided across the road like a ghost. The young man looked at the government residence district nearby and mused.

"Xiao Hei, did I look like a villain when I laughed just now?"

【Hmm... Boss, Xiao Hei didn't see it.】

To be honest, Lin Fang hadn't expected to receive such a "big gift"—a big fish who controlled Switzerland's public health and administrative resources had come knocking on his door.

Or rather, sent by someone.

To thank the fisherman, Mr. Xiao Hamaide, Lin Fang decided to buy him a one-million-dollar control system, which was currently being installed.

Third-Party's service is always so thoughtful.

June 1, 2025. Sunny.

Central Continent, Tiangang City, Third-Party Biotechnology Headquarters.

For children, today is a happy day—the annual Children's Day, where they can let loose and take a holiday to visit amusement parks or entertainment centers.

But for obese people around the World, today is a day of New Life; the company that produces miraculous athletic supplements is holding a new product launch today.

If it were just that, it certainly wouldn't attract widespread attention. However, this company dared to publicly claim on the internet that this was a drug with a direct weight-loss effect. Starting today, accumulated fat would become human history.

This immediately drew the attention of the global pharmaceutical industry, the scientific research community, and countless people plagued by obesity.

Could it be true?

Yang Wenbo thought this while looking at the internet, his heart stirred with excitement. If it were any other company, he would definitely be on his way to bashing them, thinking it was just another gimmick for capitalists to harvest his meager wealth, and they would never be held responsible for what they said.

It's the same all over the World.

But if it were this company... Yang Wenbo looked at the few boxes of red capsules on the table. Categorically speaking, it was just a nutritional food, commonly known as a health supplement, so logically, it shouldn't have any weight-loss effect.

After all, the manufacturer said the same thing. Even though it had long been selling like crazy globally, the company insisted on this claim.

Under the persistent questioning of netizens, they even issued a statement!

But Yang Wenbo knew it really worked. Even with Cushing's syndrome, which was a death sentence in the weight-loss World, he could feel the changes little by little every month.

Has this company finally shown its cards?

The young man, who weighed over 350 pounds, stared fixedly at the screen.

There was still an hour until the press conference.

However, in the open space in front of the Third-Party Technology Industrial Park gate, hundreds of media reporters had already gathered, a crowd of nearly a thousand people, and the number was still increasing.

Among them were many foreign media outlets. Obesity knows no borders, especially when it comes to Third-Party Biotechnology, a globally renowned weight-loss drug company in their impression.

This arrogant promotion also pumped them up, and they traveled thousands of miles to come to this coastal city in the Central Continent.

Facing this situation, Mayor Xu, who was also invited to this press conference, felt quite pressured, but was more excited. As the administrator of this city, he knew this was undoubtedly a great opportunity for publicity.

Moreover, Mayor Xu knew that the company's promotion was true. The Tiangang City government and the leadership team of Third-Party Technology had a harmonious relationship, and he had long witnessed the magic of this drug.

This company, which had already become the economic leader of Tiangang City, would become even larger!

But one thing puzzled Mayor Xu: he had only met the actual founder of this company once so far, back when the contract was signed.

He remembered a humble and polite young man.

At 9:30 AM, the press conference officially began.

Because of the large number of people, the press conference was arranged in an auditorium that could accommodate 2,000 people. As it was the company's strategic product, the company's General Manager, Xia Jinsha, took the stage.

After a simple opening and introduction, Xia Jinsha, wearing a dark blue professional suit, took the microphone and smiled:

"Ladies and gentlemen, hello everyone. The preparation time for this new product launch was tight, and there may still be some shortcomings in many details. I hope everyone present will be understanding. At the same time, I would like to express my most sincere gratitude to our media friends who have traveled from afar to attend this press conference, despite the fatigue. Thank you all for your support!"

Polite applause rang out from the audience.

Xia Jinsha's expression became serious. "I believe you all already know the content of today's press conference. Third-Party Biotechnology is an enterprise that tirelessly strives for human health. To this end, we have made many efforts and diligent research, and now we finally have some good results."

"Our company has only one simple goal today—to help people get rid of the trouble of obesity."

Xia Jinsha's voice spread throughout the auditorium via the surround sound system: "However, traditional methods—dieting, exercise, surgery—are either limited in effect or too high in risk."

"The global obese population has reached 1.2 billion, and more than 2 million people die each year from obesity-related diseases."

"Today, all of this will become history."

"In line with the development of biotechnology, Metabolix Diet Pills are born!"

Xia Jinsha looked at the 2,000-plus people and said confidently, her mood becoming impassioned. The company had developed too quickly; she hadn't expected that she could stand at this height today.

In Xia Jinsha's view now, her previous company, which had a market value of several billion, was just like a small factory.

"This is not a weight-loss drug in the traditional sense. It does not suppress appetite, does not block nutrient absorption, and certainly will not affect..."

As she explained, the venue was already buzzing with noise. If what this company said was true, this would be a groundbreaking achievement that would shock the entire World.

Who would have thought that the biggest medical news of the year was not cancer, not a new antibiotic, but actually a weight-loss drug!
