He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 80 Heading to Washington

"Is it safe? We must be absolutely certain that it will not cause any other harm to the human body. Our goal is to benefit humanity; making money is secondary. Safety must come first!"

Li Chuan's face revealed joy, but he still emphasized it again.

He didn't want to cause problems for short-term gains and end up becoming an enemy of all mankind.

If a new drug turned all cancer patients on Earth into the Hulk, the world would be in chaos.

Transforming into the Hulk can cure any disease. No matter what kind of terminal illness you have, as long as you transform into the Hulk, the powerful Hulk genes can make any terminal illness disappear completely.

But that's not what Li Chuan wanted. What he wanted was to cure the terminal illness without causing any other effects on the human body.

This is the main area of ​​research that Stern and Banner have been focusing on during this period.

"Boss, you can rest assured. We have conducted many simulation experiments and can completely confirm its safety."

When Banner heard that Li Chuan's first concern was actually safety, he secretly felt that his choice was indeed correct, and nodded firmly.

A week ago, he discovered through instruments that the green gene in his body had reappeared, which meant that the antidote had not been completely successful.

After much consideration, and with Betty's persuasion and Stern's advice, he officially joined the Li Group as a researcher, just like Stern.

On one hand, he studies his own green gene in an effort to find a way to completely cure himself; on the other hand, he helps Stern and others develop new drugs, which can be considered a return to his original aspiration.

The main reason is that if he leaves the Li Group and is not under Li Chuan's protection, he can only hide in a remote place to avoid being found by people like Ross.

In remote areas, there are simply not enough advanced instruments for him to continue his research and find a way to cure himself.

"Now that we've confirmed it's safe, let's notify Jack and have him prepare a press conference and all the promotional activities, then get to production!"

If the normal procedures are followed, a new drug won't be able to be launched and sold for several years, but he doesn't have that kind of time to wait.

Even Banner said they could confirm it was safe, so there shouldn't be a big problem. They could use connections, bribe their way out, or use some shady methods to get the production and sales permits.

There might be some hidden dangers later, but it doesn't matter. As his strength increases, these won't matter.

New drugs can only be effective against cancer, but there are hundreds of types of cancer, including early, middle and late stages. Except for a few mild cases, they can be cured.

Most cases are diagnosed early and do not require surgery, but various chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and targeted therapy are necessary. The anti-cancer drugs used after treatment can bankrupt an entire family.

Many late-stage patients, even after successful surgery, may only live for six months to a year before passing away.

But Stern and Banner have developed a new drug that, once ingested, will assimilate all cancer cells in the body into green cells and then eliminate them from the body.

In other words, no matter what type of cancer you have, no matter what stage you are in, and no matter whether you have received treatment, just one pill can cure the cancer and restore your health.

With such treatment results, what cancer patient could refuse?

Every year, 1800 million new cancer patients are diagnosed worldwide, and when you add those who are still alive, the number is still quite considerable.

His drug, which can cure cancer with a single pill, costs $10,000, which isn't high. Converted to RMB, it's roughly around 70,000 RMB.

Actually, if we really consider the efficacy, selling one million RMB per pill wouldn't be expensive.

However, his first priority is to accumulate wealth rapidly and in large quantities, and then reach the intermediate level of the main quest. If it were to sell for one million per pill, only a small number of wealthy people would be able to afford it.

Most families that are doing well need time to raise funds, while those who are slightly poorer may need ten or twenty years, or even die without ever managing to scrape together a million.

But 70,000 is something that most normal families can afford, and even if they are short of money, they can still borrow it.

Many people are reluctant to lend money to patients because they fear it will become a bottomless pit that they can never repay. However, if you recover quickly and are able to repay the loan later, most people are willing to lend you money.

In this way, as soon as the new drug is launched, it may not take a week before all cancer patients in the world will buy one, and some wealthy people will even buy some in advance to stock up.

The assets of the Li Group will increase exponentially, quickly reaching a level comparable to that of the Stark Group.

Secondly, considering that he mainly promotes himself as a conscientious company and a philanthropist, he naturally cannot sell drugs at high prices, otherwise doctors like Banner and Ethan would have reservations.

However, once this new drug is released, it may offend even more competitors, and attract even more envious people.

But it doesn't matter. He has already planned to have Xiao Wu and her assassination squad stationed in New York. With enough people waiting to die, naturally no one will dare to lay a finger on them.

He wanted to tell everyone that anyone who dared to lay a finger on the Li Group would face only one outcome: death!

The next day, Li Chuan arrived at the airport where Tony's private plane was parked at the agreed time.

Tony's private jet is obviously much more luxurious than Li Chuan's. Li Chuan's private jet is mid-to-low-end, and he bought it for the convenience of traveling abroad.

Tony's aircraft is a top-of-the-line modified version of the Boeing 737, which has undergone special modifications and upgrades, incorporating many cutting-edge technologies.

All the seats inside the plane were removed and turned into a super luxurious stage where people could drink, sing, and dance with several beautiful blonde flight attendants.

Li Chuan could only sigh at this, saying that Tony, as a top-notch playboy and super-rich man who had been rich since childhood, really knew how to enjoy life.

The hearing was very lively, and the person presiding over it was none other than Senator Stern, the Hydra infiltrator.

He recruited Justin Hammer of Hammer Industries, a former Stark Industries rival that also made its fortune in weapons manufacturing, and Tony's friend, Colonel Rhodes.

Based on their professional assessment, the two determined that the Iron Man suit was not an ordinary aircraft but a weapon of special threat.

Then they released information that various countries were manufacturing Iron Man suits, using national security as a moral blackmail tactic to force Tony to hand over the Iron Man suit technology to the country.

Unfortunately, Tony had anticipated this and directly controlled the screen using his more advanced mobile phone, showing scenes of various countries' Iron Man suit manufacturing failures, fundamentally refuting the conclusion that the Iron Man suit might pose a global threat.

He even went so far as to claim that he, Iron Man, alone could protect world peace and that there was no need to hand over the technology to the country, leaving Senator Stern speechless.

While Tony was drawing everyone's attention, Li Chuan quietly went to a corner, released a shadow clone, and handed an explosive tag to the shadow clone.
