    At the beginning of the year 2022, big pharmaceutical companies began to non-stop throwing out heavy cooperation


    I grew up in the south of China.


    My past was in a small town of less than 20,000 people.
    My memories grew like corrugated grass on those low roofs, as well as the slate-paved streets and the jutting out.
    Households, a river running through the town, and of course small alleys jutting out from both sides of the street like branches


    Later, I came to the north and settled in Beijing, the largest city in China
    .


    When I first came to Beijing, high-rise buildings were being built everywhere in Beijing, roads were being built everywhere, Beijing was like a huge construction site, and the shouts of construction workers and the roar of machines continued day and night


    I read this sentence when I was young: "I walk on the streets of Beijing in autumn.


    .
    .
    " This sentence made me excited because I didn't know what it would be like to walk on the streets of Beijing in autumn


    It should be said that I like Beijing, even as a construction site, I also like Beijing.

    .


    This is because the Kaza in Beijing does not affect my inner peace


    Through this new cooperation, Huadong Medicine will introduce a variety of ADC innovative products
