Tai Yong Medical

Tai Yong Medical (Chinese: 泰永 Tài yǒng, "peaceful eternity") is the world's largest mechanical augmentation and biotech company, based out of Hengsha in 2027.

Background
The Tai Yong Medical Corporation was founded in Shanghai in 1977 as a house design/construction of prosthetic limbs made ​​of silicone, and by the 1980s had acquired two factories in China and a network of clients in Southeast Asia. In 2009, TYM became famous worldwide thanks to the work of the young leader Zhao Yun Ru, who started a collaboration with the military of China by providing prostheses to veteran amputees. In 2017, the corporation was invited to participate in the ambitious Hengsha Island project, which would later become the company's headquarters. One of the world's fastest growing biotech corporations, TYM is known for aggressive expansionism, absorbing lesser corporations and utilizing any means to do so. In secret, it accomplishes these goals through a combination of extortion, blackmail, and even direct hack attacks, stealing company secrets and tech. By the time of Deus Ex: Human Revolution, it has turned its sights on Sarif Industries.

Some e-mails and ebooks hints that TYM is also known for inferior product quality and careless use of voluntary trial subjects.

It is revealed that TYM is actually a pawn of the Illuminati. Its CEO, Zhao Yun Ru, is an aspiring member of the Illuminati, and was assigned the task of eventually monopolizing mechanical augmentation. When David Sarif proves to be a more stubborn opponent than anticipated, the conspirators resort to using a hired hacker to attacking Sarif Industries directly. This leads to their downfall, as Adam Jensen is able to follow this trail of leads directly to Zhao, even infiltrating TYM itself. Zhao manages to get the better of him however, and he is forced to escape.

Several e-mails and observations inside TYM and the events of The Missing Link, confirms them to be involved in inhumane experimentation on unwilling test subjects.

Later in the game, augmented people worldwide, including Jensen, begin to experience physical pain and distorted vision, apparently caused by faulty biochips, and are asked to visit LIMB clinics for replacement chips manufactured by TYM. In reality, the new chips are designed to limit the enhanced abilities of augmented individuals. The player has the option of installing the new chip during the second visit to Hengsha.
