Li Qinyi, as the general manager's personal secretary, held absolute authority here.

In a certain sense, her words represented the general manager.

Therefore, no one dared to be careless, and everyone began to collect themselves and observe seriously.

"You guys, follow his steps and start making the medicine directly." Li Qinyi instructed.

The three middle-aged men immediately started working on the side upon hearing her.

The medicinal ingredients were already prepared, and just now, Li Qinyi's secretary had taken a few extra portions while fetching them.

Additionally, the equipment here was identical to that on Qin Chuan's side.

The purpose was to replicate Qin Chuan's technique on the spot.

Such a method was used by the Phantom Company more than once, and it was a winning strategy.

Later, they would change the name to deceive everyone.

Even if those being plagiarized discovered their methods, they could do nothing about it.

After all, Phantom Group's legal team was no slouch.

Of course, if they encountered something truly impossible to replicate, they would honestly sign agreements and follow normal cooperation procedures with the other party.

Such situations were not nonexistent, but they were rare.

In the entire Jiangcheng medical system, the top researchers were all here.

There was simply no possibility of failing to replicate something.

Li Qinyi was very confident about this.

The only regret was that Qin Chuan wasn't refining the Yang Gathering Pill at this moment.

On the other side, Qin Chuan, who was originally refining the Beauty Cream, suddenly smiled at the camera.

"Trying to steal the technique? Let's see if you can actually learn it."

Qin Chuan was completely unafraid, confidently operating the Nine Dragon Creation Skill.

In the next moment, an invisible force gathered in his palm.

He directly slapped the table, and with a "bang," the medicinal herbs in front of him were instantly pulverized.

"This..."

In the adjacent office, there was a deathly silence.

Li Qinyi and the group of middle-aged men in white coats all stared at the surveillance footage, dumbfounded, unable to recover for a long time.

The three middle-aged men who were preparing to replicate stood there, holding the herbs, utterly confused.

Their bewildered expressions seemed to say: Is there even a need to try to replicate this?

After a brief silence, the whole office exploded into chaos.

"This...is he some kind of immortal?"

"No grinder used, just a slap, and it turned into powder?"

"This isn't scientific, not scientific at all; I feel like if he slapped me like that, I'd reincarnate."

Everyone was discussing animatedly, clearly intimidated by Qin Chuan's display, and they appeared somewhat panicked.

Seeing this, Li Qinyi patted the table: "Quiet, quiet!"

Then she looked at the three middle-aged men attempting to replicate: "Continue replicating, don't mind it, use the grinder."

Watching the three men clumsily starting their work, she explained: "He might be an Ancient Martial Artist. As far as I know, Ancient Martial Arts exist, and some martial artists have such precise control over their strength that it's possible to do something like this."

Everyone, of course, was aware of Ancient Martial Artists.

After all, Phantom Group was a large corporation, and there was no shortage of Ancient Martial Arts masters among them.

Beside their general manager, there was always a seemingly ordinary old woman.

The old woman didn't have to do anything usually, just nibbling on melon seeds, watching TV, giving the impression of idleness.

However, no one in the entire Phantom Group dared to underestimate her presence.

A few years ago, when a group of people came causing trouble at the company, some of them were veterans who beat the company's security until they begged for mercy.

Coincidentally, the old woman passed by and subdued the aggressive veterans in just two moves.

Since then, many employees knew that the old woman was a legendary Ancient Martial Arts expert, highly skilled in martial arts.

After listening to Li Qinyi's explanation, everyone showed expressions of relief.

"This kid is a bit arrogant, knowing we're watching, deliberately trying to show off."

"Arrogance is good; arrogance means brainlessness. Once we've replicated his stuff, let's see how arrogant he remains."

"He's still too young and doesn't understand the viciousness of society. It's a pity he's not making the Yang Gathering Pill this time, and who knows how valuable this Beauty Cream is..."

After mocking, everyone refocused their attention back on the surveillance footage.

The next step was straightforward.

Qin Chuan used a charcoal stove as a heat source and began concocting the Beauty Cream in a clay pot.

"The steps are quite simple, doesn't seem too difficult."

"Indeed, next is the simmering time, that's the key, it must be recorded accurately."

"Have you noticed, this kid's hand seems to always be near the charcoal stove..."

"Maybe it's just a personal habit."

Someone noticed a detail but it didn't draw much attention from the crowd.

Half an hour later, Qin Chuan poured a sticky black liquid from the hot clay pot.

Almost simultaneously, in Li Qinyi's office, the three responsible for replicating poured a sticky black liquid from their clay pot.

From its appearance, it looked almost identical to the Beauty Cream Qin Chuan had concocted.

The smell was somewhat unpleasant.

The moment it was poured out, the entire office was filled with a scent of traditional Chinese medicine.

For everyone who dealt with traditional Chinese medicine regularly, this smell was already familiar, so they didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.

"Xiaoting, go stall him for a while."

Li Qinyi instructed, and then asked someone to find a few suitable volunteers for testing the medicine.

These volunteers were all hired by Phantom Group for a fee.

They were all people in need of money.

Either they had online loans to repay, or gambling debts to cover.

Li Qinyi selected a girl who was waiting to exchange money for a phone.

This girl's hand was quite rough, apparently from a rural background.

Seeing everyone around her using iPhones, she participated in Phantom Group's test program.

Li Qinyi had the cooled imitation 'Beauty Cream' applied to the girl's left hand.

According to Qin Chuan's claim, the Beauty Cream's effect was to beautify and rejuvenate the skin, making skin as tender as a baby's.

Similar products were already available in Phantom Group.

When applied, sophisticated instruments could quickly analyze the results.

"How does it feel?" Li Qinyi asked.

"It's cool and feels comfortable."

The girl honestly expressed her feelings.

Li Qinyi nodded, as texture was also a critical factor in evaluating a beauty product.

Products with strong irritants have difficulty entering the market.

Next, it would depend on the effectiveness of this Beauty Cream.

For some reason, Li Qinyi had confidence in this Beauty Cream, thinking it might become Phantom Group's next hit product.

As to why she felt this way, she couldn't quite articulate it herself.

While everyone was waiting for the result, the girl testing the cream suddenly frowned: "It...it seems to be getting hot... hotter and hotter... so hot, I feel like it's burning my hand..."
