Chapter 547
Lauren shook her head. “The development of formulas is incredibly costly and time–consuming, Just looking at the history of our Pharmaceutical Division at Rhodes Corporation, after decades of effort, we’ve only managed to develop a few formulas with good market reception.
“Mr. Chapman, while your proposal is excellent, the manpower, resources, finances, and, most critically, the time needed to implement it are like insurmountable mountains.”
Marcus replied seriously, “Resources and finances won’t be an issue. I’ve been managing the Pharmaceutical Division for years, so I’m confident in our foundation. We can reallocate tens of billions as an initial budget without any problems!
“As for time, with the current market share of our thirty–plus products, the department can hold on for a while longer without being completely overtaken by the Weller family or other competitors. But manpower–that’s the real challenge. Mr. Lloyd, Ms. Rhodes, I’m sorry, but that’s where I’m stuck.”
Lauren said, “It’s not your fault, Mr. Chapman. Research personnel are usually highly experienced international pharmacists, pharmacologists, medical specialists, and professors. It’s not just you, but even I can’t recruit such high–level experts on short notice. This is not a problem that any single person can solve.”
Andrew, who had been quietly listening to their discussion, suddenly smiled. “Why don’t I take care of the manpower issue?”
Marcus was stunned. “Mr. Lloyd, you can handle that?”
Lauren’s eyes sparkled with curiosity. “Dr. Lloyd, are you planning to personally lead research for Rhodes Corporation?”
Andrew waved his hand. “I don’t have the time or the patience for that. But I do have a collection of formulas. I can provide Rhodes with a few suitable ones as needed.”
Marcus was utterly shocked. “Mr. Lloyd, you actually have formulas you can provide?”
Realizing his question might have come across as rude, Marcus quickly smiled and added, “Please forgive me, Mr. Lloyd. I didn’t mean anything by it–I’m just amazed.”
Lauren was equally incredulous. “Dr. Lloyd, such formulas are incredibly rare. Each one is the result of countless hours of effort, wisdom, and cutting–edge techniques. Even if you do have some, they’re far too valuable. Rhodes Corporation can’t accept them.”
Andrew smiled calmly. “Don’t worry. If I say I have them, have them. Once I sort through them, I’ll select a few suitable ones and have them verified by the Pharmaceutical Division’s experts.”
Marcus’s expression twitched as he listened. Was Andrew implying he had more than just a few formulas?
How could that even be possible?
Marcus knew Andrew’s medical skills were exceptional, but being a skilled doctor didn’t necessarily mean he could develop formulas.
Even Dr. Aicker, the famed miracle doctor of Jayrodale, had spent his entire life painstakingly developing just a handful of formulas. Those formulas had been the backbone of the Aicker family’s success, earning them an untold fortune.
As for Andrew, while his medical talent might be unparalleled, he was still so young
Researching formulas was like studying ancient poetry–it required an immense amount of time and effort.

Young people simply didn’t have the patience for something so tedious.
Lauren shook her head firmly. “No, even if you have formulas, I won’t take them. Dr. Lloyd, I don’t want our relationship to lead you into helping me without limits.”
At that moment, Lauren’s resolve was unwavering,
She realized that the man she admired had already reached level where she had to look up to him. It seemed he truly was capable of everything.
