The automatic door opened. To his bewilderment, Feng Lin saw the blonde OL standing outside his door. It was none other than the HR manager, Isabella.
Staring at Feng Lin who was in great spirits, Isabella had a charming smile on her face. "Seems like you had a great rest last night. Today will be the first day of your job. Let me bring you around to familiarize you with our company's departments."
Feng Lin nodded.
Isabella had a stunning figure; her revealed legs were sufficient to cause the hearts of men to tremble. As she moved in her cat's walk, her hips swayed mesmerizingly, forming a perfect 'S' curve, fully exuding the charm of a mature woman.
However, Feng Lin didn't notice this. He lowered his head and was deep in contemplation, feeling that something seemed to be wrong.
This Isabella was the HR manager of such a huge company while he was merely a geneticist intern. Yet, she actually came all the way here to personally receive him and bring him around? Wasn't this regarding him too highly?
Feng Lin didn't feel that he was important enough to be noticed as a supreme genius, able to receive such respect yet. Hopefully, it wasn't that he was thinking too much.
Riding the elevator down, Feng Lin followed Isabella around as she led him into the interior of the company.
From afar, the rumbling sounds made by machinery could be heard. As they walked nearer, the sound naturally grew increasingly clearer.
"Let's go and take a look at our factory that produces nutrient fluids!" Isabella led the way as she laughed. After that, a scene of an industrial workplace appeared before their vision.
The whirl of machinery, sentient robots moving all around, from raw materials to processing to product creation… all of these were automated. Because no human labor was used, the production efficiency was excellent, and costs were kept down to the bare minimum.
In truth, given the development of science and technology at present, all industrial production could already be fully automated, without the need for human labor. Only a rare few areas such as genetic potions concoction and the energy industry were the exceptions; otherwise, human labor wasn't needed most of the time.
Most genetic potions needed humans to personally concoct them; hence, there was no way for the process to be fully automated.
As for the energy industry, there was another reason.
Right now, the energy commonly used by humans was something created by science, a product named the Tros Super Pressure Closed Electric Coil that could produce electrical energy. This was able to store great amounts of energy and was a superconductor. It had a long service life, charged electricity extremely fast, and was a clean source of energy that had no pollution.
The downside was that during the process of manufacturing, it would produce large amounts of electromagnetic waves that would interfere with the operations of the machinery.
And industrial robots that could block or negate the electromagnetic waves were all extremely expensive, valued at a sky-high price. If one wasn't a huge company, they wouldn't be able to afford it.
Hence, for some small-scale companies and clan factories, they preferred to use cheap labor in large quantities.
If Feng Lin didn't flee from his clan, he would definitely be working in one of his clan's energy factories right now, to produce this Tros Electricity Coils.
For this particular factory of the Giant Pharmaceutical Company, it only focused on producing ordinary nutrient fluids and naturally wouldn't be so strict on the conditions. Everything was fully automated and every batch produced would consist of about 500+ bottles. The production time for each batch was even less than half a second.
In Feng Lin's perspective, these were no longer nutrient fluids; they were glittering star coins instead.
What was investing little capital and generating insanely huge returns?
This was it!
A bottle of low-grade nutrient fluids only needed one star coin per bottle. A bottle of mid-grade nutrient fluids would cost about tens of star coin, while high-grade nutrient fluids had prices ranging from hundreds to thousands.
According to Feng Lin's estimation, this factory of the Giant Pharmaceutical Company was able to produce 1,000 bottles of low-grade nutrient fluids, 100 bottles of mid-grade nutrient fluids, and 1 bottle of high-grade nutrient fluids every single second.
How much money could be made in one day? For a period of time, Feng Lin wasn't able to calculate the answer exactly.
This wasn't producing nutrient fluids; this was simply printing money!
But this wasn't all they were capable of, obviously. With regards to the Giant Pharmaceutical Company, the oligarch of the genetic potions domain business in this solar system, the profits made from nutrient fluids were simply too low. That was simply the basics of what their company could produce.
The true money-making products were still genetic potions.
"Come here!" Isabella flashed him a mysterious smile and led Feng Lin pass the nutrient fluids production factory to another factory's workspace.

Countless bottles of amber-colored transparent liquid were being produced. A variety of strange ingredients were crushed by machinery into pieces before being heavily hammered and refined into liquid form, producing the bottles of amber-colored nutrient medicine.
At the final stages, tiny silver needle-like tubes would release a dot of silvery substances into each bottle and stirred it evenly.
That's spirit powder!
"Producing potions of life?" Feng Lin instinctively replied. Of course, he immediately realized what this was.
"Good judgment!" Isabella praised. "As expected of an extremely young genius that is qualified to be a genetic researcher!"
Her footsteps didn't stop, and she continued to lead Feng Lin forward. Very swiftly, they came to a factory that resembled a large-scale laboratory.
Feng Lin saw a group of humans in white coats focus on the intricate equipments in their hands as they carefully concocted the genetic potions.
What was different was that the concoction of genetic potions wasn't fully concocted by machinery. Machinery would automate the process until the final step where 'spiritual perception' was needed. Since machinery wasn't able to complete the final step; thus, humans were needed. They would then adjust the amount of spirit particles in the potions to reach the optimal state.
One couldn't help but say that this was truly an intelligent work method.
However as Feng Lin observed, he discovered that there are some flaws with this method.
This was especially true since the preparation of potions were all mechanically synthesized, and there was no human involvement at all before that. That meant the humans at the final step might find it tough to accurately grasp the potency of effects from the components, and the spiritual perception effect might decline, resulting in a lower quality product. But even so, because the majority of the steps were automated, the production efficiency was increased by at least five times.
When the quality of the potions lowered, the price would naturally fall as well. But despite so, the final total value would rise significantly as a result of the surge in production efficiency.
In short, this was an intelligent method that only had some slight disadvantages. Moreover, the benefits far outweighed the disadvantages.
Feng Lin also discovered that these people wearing white coats were all genetic researchers. He couldn't help but ask, "Is this where I'll be working at in the future?"
Isabella shook her head and laughed. "No. Feng Lin, after the virtual interview yesterday, all five of the interviewers feel that your knowledge on mythologies and gene theory are both extremely solid. Although your concoction methods are rusty, your personality is exceptionally calm, and you can definitely be considered a top genius. The main interviewer yesterday was none other than the manager of the Research and Development department, Manager Frank. He was the one who specially requested you to go to his department. So, after a tour of the company's departments, I'll send you to the R&D department where you can officially start your internship!"
"The R&D department!" Feng Lin was stunned. This was a core department of a high tech company, yet he was actually so highly regarded, being sent there the instant he joined.
Although he wasn't clear of the reason why, no matter what, it was always a good thing to be so heavily regarded in a new company.
'I wonder what does the R&D department do exactly?" He mused and involuntarily asked.
"Seems like you are really keen. In that case, let us head over there now and meet with your new colleagues." Isabella smiled lightly and led the way. "Follow me."
As she led the way, she introduced the general situation of the R&D department to Feng Lin. "In order to keep the market competitive, we must constantly develop new products. Hence, the main job of the R&D department is to research new types of genetic potions before testing their effects of little white mice. Once the genetic potions are fully tested and suitable for human usage, our company would then produce them in bulk and introduce them into the market to earn profits!"
Feng Lin nodded as she explained, feeling that her words were logical and he didn't feel that anything was wrong.
Very soon, they reached the R&D department. A heavy and thick door made of metal opened silently. Feng Lin then followed Isabella into a new space.
The surrounding walls were all constructed from powerful alloys. There were no cracks or demarcation lines at all; they were like one complete whole.
Numerous genetic researchers moved about, all of them extremely busy. The air was filled with a strong atmosphere of research.
This was the company's core technology department. If one wanted to learn about the knowledge of geneticist's systems, this was the place to be.
Feng Lin nodded. He was very satisfied with this job.
However, with a sweep of his gaze, he instantly felt that something was wrong.
Inside the R&D department, sealed glass cabins could be seen everywhere. The glass cabins were filled with a red-colored fluid, and each of them had a naked human floating within. Their noses and mouths were fixed with a facepiece, providing them with oxygen. Numerous tubes could also be seen inserted into their bodies.
These genetic researchers concocted different types of strange genetic potions and were using the tubes to force their potions into the human bodies here.
The expressions of those humans in the glass cabins were wretched with agony. Their bodies contorted and spasmed uncontrollably. They were basically the white mice in scientific laboratories.
Feng Lin felt his heart sinking to the bottom of the valley. He finally understood what did the term 'little white mice' spoken by Isabella earlier mean.
"Human experimentations!"
