Grow up (4)
“But why am I here?”

“I had a change in schedule, so I went to the party to surprise you. But you were completely passed out, so I brought you here. I also called Ellie.”

“Really? You came here because you missed me?”

“Then. I only have you. I suddenly miss you so much.”

“Hahaha. I was feeling a little bad without Levy. You’re always busy. But you used to spend weekends with me. Today, you left because you had something to do. I was a little disappointed.”

“So I came back right away.”

“Come here. Let me hug you.”

“Yes~!”

I’ve been a bit busy lately and have neglected Emilia, so her longing for affection is no joke.

But I was able to prevent a disaster today thanks to the magic I cast just in case.

– Ring ring ring.

– hello?

– Levy, this is Neomi Kale.

– Ah, sir. What’s going on?

– It was a success~!

– yes?

– The growth experiment of the ‘Shapremin’ grass was successful. I am certain that the small copper plate that Mr. Levy gave me was a truly essential element. I have finally crossed the threshold of the magical month.

– You didn’t tell anyone else what I told you, did you?

– Of course. I secretly put it in the drawer of the research building where the growth experiment is being conducted. Of course, I have the key. As Mr. Levy said, our experimental site is within a 1km radius. That’s why the researchers are very confused. Even though all the conditions were the same as last time, this time it was successful.

– Then, please grow it for more than 6 months in the first stage and make sure it bears fruit. Analyze whether the ‘tea’ made from the fruit obtained in this way really contains fat-decomposing enzymes and whether it is effective for dieting.

– Of course. Anyway, we will start preparing for commercialization from now on. That’s why I say. We need a large-scale farm to prepare for success.

– Okay. I’ll talk to Louis. Find a suitable place to build a farm. Oh, before that, we need to analyze whether the fruits grown on Earth, like the ones I gave you, are effective. If they aren’t effective, we can’t buy the farm.

– still…

– No. Don’t rush too much. If the same effect is verified, you should buy it later. To save time, you should thoroughly analyze the expected sales, operating profit, market share, etc. in case the effect is the same. Consult with CEO Lewis for details.

– Yes, I understand. Anyway, thank you again.

– No problem. Thank you for your hard work.

– Yes. Okay.

For a while, Lewis and CEO Neomi were busy analyzing the effectiveness and market purchasing power of the two of them.

Then, when the conclusion was reached, they started making a fuss that we should immediately purchase a large farm to grow tea, saying that the ripple effect on the existing market would be much greater than that of the new class of antibiotics currently under FDA review.

It was only after being advised to wait and see that the ‘Shapremin’ tea grown on Earth might not have the same effect that I was finally able to calm down.

According to Lewis, if they could demonstrate just 50% of the current research results, they could monopolize 30-40% of the global beverage market, which is almost like raking in the money, so every day they are late means they are losing money.

In addition, FDA approval for food and beverages takes less than 1/10 of the time and process required for new drugs, so if you apply now and prepare a large-scale production facility (farm), you can start selling on a large scale in about a year.

If you wait six months to analyze the efficacy of the fruit produced on Earth, and then apply for FDA approval and prepare the farm, it will be delayed by at least one to one and a half years, which is a loss – Lewis calls making money after that a loss.

In any case, the argument is that it is a loss.

Lewis’s argument also seems to have some merit.

Because the global beverage market is worth over 600 billion dollars (660 trillion won) annually.

So, if we could just capture 20% of those sales, that would be $120 billion (132 trillion won). If it were really 50%, that would be $300 billion (330 trillion won), so Lewis’ eyes were spinning.

If the farm is judged to be ineffective and then resold, the loss incurred is at most less than 1 billion dollars (1.1 trillion won).

If it works, it’s worth at least $120 billion (132 trillion won).

So, from a business perspective, there is a lot of uproar about having to invest right now.

Besides, Lewis doesn’t know about the ‘magic plate’.

No, even Neomi doesn’t know this.

Because I just know ‘take something and put it within a certain radius without anyone knowing.’

From their perspective, they may think that conducting ingredient analysis and efficacy verification twice is a ‘useless task.’

However, from Min-gi’s perspective, he can’t help but think that the efficacy of the ‘Shapremin’ fruit brought from ‘Maldek’ and the ‘Shapremin’ fruit grown on Earth may be different, or if he’s really unlucky, there may be no efficacy at all.

Earth and Maldek have different environments.

In particular, the concentration of mana is different.

This is especially true now that it has been revealed that Shapremin’s essential growth condition is a low concentration of mana.

So, it’s a bit of a shame though.

No, actually, it’s not just a little bit, it’s a shame so bad it makes me cry.

Still, we intend to proceed cautiously.

(A few days later)

“Okay. Since you two keep coming here and nagging me, I’ll tell you the truth. What I’m saying now must never be known to anyone else. Do you understand?”

“Yes.” Louis and Neomi sing along harmoniously.

“Actually, the ‘Shapremin’ I brought you before was grown in a very special, special environment. I can’t tell you exactly. Anyway, the first growth experiment that MF Pharmaceuticals conducted last time all failed, right?”

“Ah~! Yes. That’s right.”

“That’s why. Last time, I said there was a way, and I carefully provided the solution only to Neomi. But I don’t know if that’s actually the right way. I don’t know if that method can really produce fruitful results. So I’m saying we’ll wait and see for about six months.”

“hmm……”

“Well, Levy, what are the chances that that method will work?” Louis continued.

“Well? If my guess is correct, there’s a 70~80% chance of success. Of course, the efficacy may differ slightly. If the efficacy is to be the same. Hmm… around a 40~50% chance? Anyway, that’s about it.”

“Then. It would be right to just force it.”

“yes?”

“Even if it fails in the end, we will lose money because we bought a ‘large farm.’ In any case, we can prepare for production during the six months of farming. And we can sell the farm again. If it doesn’t work out, we can plant other crops and sell them. And if we find a suitable owner, we can resell it.

But if you delay the schedule because of that 20-30% failure rate, you’re really losing at least $100 billion a year. If you fail, it’s not that big of a loss. If you succeed, it’s more than $100 billion. It’s not just a question of $100 billion. Think about what you can reinvest and earn more with that money. What should you choose?”

“hmm…..”

“Levi-sama~!! Of course, if you tell me to just wait, I will. However, this is really too much of a waste. Please reconsider.”

“Ah. I see. Now that you mention it, I have nothing to say. Okay. Apply for FDA functional beverage approval based on the ingredient analysis table of the first experiment results right now. Look into purchasing a large-scale farm. And of course, register a patent.”

“Of course. All the documents are already prepared. We just need to submit them to the various research institutes and the FDA.”

“How long does it take? What are the procedures? Does this take years like the New Drug?”

“No. It’s simpler than you think. First, we will first request that various research institutes prove that it has ‘fat decomposition performance.’ This can be done in 2~3 months at the earliest. We will request it from several credible institutes. In addition, we only need to obtain the fact that it is harmless to the human body. In other words, we need data supported by experts (Significant Scientific Agreement).

In the meantime, you need to buy a farm right away. And then register the production facility (Food Facility Registration). This takes about 2~3 months. Once you’ve completed the registration, you can start large-scale farming of ‘Shapremin’ tea. According to Neomi, it will take at least 5 months before you can harvest. In the meantime, you need to prepare the conditions for mechanical harvesting. You can’t farm and harvest all over that vast area by hand.

In addition, even if it costs a bit, we consult with a specialized law firm or consulting firm to prepare for related regulations such as checking for problems with product labeling, preparing related supporting documents, registering a production base, and designating a local agent.

Anyway, everything I mentioned needs to be done simultaneously. Then, if it’s fast, it could take 8~9 months to get the final FDA approval. If it’s slow, it could take 10 months. Then, it could be sold right away.”

“It’s definitely faster than the new drug.”

“Yes. This is a health supplement or functional beverage after all. And if FDA approval or ‘performance recognition’ from experts is delayed as much as we thought, we can remove the ‘functionality’ and register it as a beverage and sell it. The biggest advantage of Shapremin tea or beverage is its refreshing taste, so it will sell like hotcakes even if we just sell it. What is it? It’s refreshing like mint and deep and rich tea flavor. Anyway, it’s refreshing. Once you taste it, you’ll definitely want to drink it again.”

“Anyway, I understand. Just like now, please consult with the Neomi representative to make sure there are no problems with the product launch.”

“Yes. We will set advertising costs generously and do our best to dominate the global beverage market.”

“Hehehe. If this drink and antibiotics are completed later, MF Pharmaceuticals will become huge, right?”

“Yes. If the antibiotics are launched smoothly and dominate the market as we expect, we could see an annual operating profit of 20 billion dollars (22 trillion won).

There is at least $100 billion (110 trillion won) in the functional beverage market using saffremin. This is operating profit. Usually, if you look at the market capitalization of 10% compared to the operating profit ratio, it is a great company. In other words, it will be a $1.2 trillion company.

Of course, not right away. It will take a few years, but it will happen sooner or later. We will become the best company in the world. So I can’t help but be excited. Apple’s market cap is not yet $900 billion (KRW 990 trillion).

In addition, both of MF Pharmaceutical’s business items are patented, so they will be our exclusive products for the next 20 years. At the very least, they will be guaranteed for 15 years. So, it will go up at least 2-3 times more. So, it will become a company worth 2-3 trillion dollars. Hahaha.”

“Anyway, I understand. I would like you, Representative Neomi, to report to me separately how much of the ‘secret weapon’ is needed to meet the essential elements required for growth that I mentioned last time. Also, research how to hide it most safely. You should never ask anyone else to do this. Do you understand?”

“Yes, of course.”

“Okay. Then everyone disperse! Fighting~!”

“yes~!”

MF Invest was busy with stock investments and venture investments to secure shares by making early investments in companies with high growth potential, as in the investment scenarios it had always done, and futures investments made whenever there was a major event.

MF Pharmaceuticals focused on launching the functional beverage Shapremin, which is ‘helpful for dieting’. Min-ki spent his time studying during the day for his two majors at Harvard and devoting his time to studying magic in the evening.

“Huh? The signal came?”

A signal came from the vault that was brokering the artifact called ‘Enoch Id’.

It appears that the number of artifacts in the vault has been reduced to less than 12.

Now, soon enough, the branch manager named ‘Willie’ will request supplies, and Min-ki can covertly signal the arrival of supplies once they are finished.

Now I need to get ready.

As soon as you get a signal that the vault is full again, you can teleport there and attack the people who were supplying it.

A few days later, the long-awaited second signal arrived.

Min-gi immediately uses Hide, Silent, and Hide Mana.

And just in case, I put a protective spell on my body and teleported.

‘Wait a minute! I’ll tell you everything. Haha.’

Min-ki was very confused after teleporting to the Massachusetts branch of ‘Enoch Id’.

Naturally, since the raid was conducted as soon as the signal was given that the vault was filled, the office here should be occupied by supply officers from the secret upper organization called Chroma(?), not the Massachusetts branch of Enoch Idd who were absent.

But the branch office was empty.

The lights were off and there was no one there.

‘What’s going on? What’s wrong? It’s only been two or three minutes since the signal came. Why did they withdraw so quickly?’

I took a quick look outside the building through the window, but I couldn’t see a single ant on the street.

‘Could it be that the magic failed? That can’t be.’

He approached the safe and used his clairvoyance technique.

As expected, there were 40 magical items in the safe.

It is true that it has become widespread.

I used the ‘Search Magic Traces’ spell to quickly find traces of magic.

It was to confirm that the one-time magic that Min-ki had cast was indeed the one that had just been used.

“Gasp~!”

I was so surprised that I actually screamed.

There were traces of magic.

However, in addition to the ‘Secret Signal’ that Min-ki had placed, there was another trace of magic that had just been used.

‘The magic that was just used… Is this warp? No. It’s a little different from warp magic. It’s a significantly modified magic. It’s a slightly modified 5-circle warp magic. But it’s very good. In a way, you could say it’s an advanced form of actual warp magic. This is the first time I’ve seen something like this?’
