Chapter 253: Ridicule is the best footnote
Chapter 253: Ridicule is the best footnote
“Science time! How to create two market demands with one drug:
Step 1: Design the side effect into bone marrow failure;
Step 2: Treat bone marrow failure with ITG myelopoietin;
Step 3: Wait for the leeks… Oh no, wait for the patients to pay the money and stay alive!
Qingshan Pharmaceutical is truly a business genius.”
“Indeed, I am familiar with this operation! First sell cheats to destroy the game environment, then sell anti-cheating programs, win-win (Qingshan Pharmaceutical won twice), dog head.jpg.”
“Haha, I suggest that Qingshan Pharmaceutical be awarded the Nobel Prize in Economics. The leukemia drug is bundled with ITG myelopoietin. This operation would make capitalists cry and Jews kneel down… It’s too cool, six six six six!!”
“Those patients who praised Qingshan Pharmaceutical before are happy now. Now Qingshan Pharmaceutical will show you what real pharmaceutical capitalism is.
It’s not enough to make you take Ibeumab for a long time, we also have to create some side effects for you to take other medicines. This sickle is too fast to cut leeks. Qingshan Pharmaceutical will suck blood from you for the rest of your life. “
“Haha, that’s right, Qingshan Pharmaceutical’s idea of cutting leeks is really awesome.”
After confirming that “ITG human myelopoietin” can treat the side effects of bone marrow failure caused by combined therapy with “ibukumab”, Zhang Yang immediately applied to the ethics committee to restart the clinical trial of “combination therapy”.
The Ethics Committee passed it successfully.
At the same time, Tsingshan Pharmaceutical also announced that “ITG human myelopoietin” can treat the side effects of bone marrow failure caused by “ibukumab”.
As soon as the news came out, almost the same as Zhang Yang thought, all the leukemia patients cheered, but after the excitement, it soon attracted huge controversy!
There is no other way. Using one’s own medicine to treat the effects caused by one’s own medicine sounds like there is a sense of conspiracy.
Especially after the media and self-media that are not afraid of making trouble promoted it extensively on the Internet, such controversial words instantly attracted the ridicule and sarcasm of countless black fans.
Qingshan Pharmaceutical does have a good reputation on the Internet, but any company will always have a group of black fans. When this opportunity arose, those black fans who were already unhappy with Qingshan Pharmaceutical immediately seized the opportunity.
Conspiracy theories are rampant on the Internet, but fortunately, Qingshan Pharmaceutical’s reputation over the years has accumulated a large number of loyal fans, who have stood up and taken the initiative to confront the haters!
“Haha, stop being sarcastic and showing off. Some people just slip through the net of nine-year compulsory education. Are the side effects of a drug so easy to control? Why don’t you try it? You’re showing off!”
“Haha, the above person’s scolding is beautiful. We leukemia patients are not anxious, but you haters are extremely anxious! Brothers, let’s make money together, can you introduce some ways to make money?”
“Leukemia patients can accept it, the ethics committee approves it, the National Medical Products Administration agrees, but netizens say: No!”
“I am dying of laughter. I hope the whole family of these haters will not get sick. When they get sick, they will know how lucky they are to have a company like Qingshan Pharmaceutical! There are so many people in this world who can’t get cured even though they have money!”
“That’s right! There are people who are smearing pharmaceutical companies like Qingshan Pharmaceutical. It’s simply outrageous!”
Fans of Tsingshan Pharmaceutical quickly stepped up to fight back against conspiracy theories on the Internet.
Of course, the issue of “ITG human myelopoietin” treating the side effects of “ibukumab” is not just discussed by netizens, but also by many professional professionals in China.
Hengrui Medicine.
Hengrui was once the top drug research and development company in China, but with the sudden rise of Tsingshan Pharmaceutical, the top spot in the country has long since changed hands.
It is even getting further and further away from Qingshan Pharmaceutical.
Jiangsu Province, Hengrui Medicine headquarters.
Like Zhang Yang, Hengrui Medicine President Su Lin also comes from a background in technical research and development. After watching the heated arguments among netizens on the Internet, he put down the iPad in his hand and looked at his confidant, Su Wenping.
“Wenping…what do you think the truth is?”
“Did Qingshan Pharmaceutical really do this on purpose, or did they just happen to discover that ITG myelopoietin can treat the side effects of ‘ibukumab’?”
Su Wenping is tall and thin. He is now mainly responsible for the research and development of various innovative drugs of Hengrui.
As someone who once considered Qingshan Pharmaceutical as a rival, he thought for a moment and shook his head:
“Boss Su, I think the possibility that Qingshan Pharmaceutical deliberately created side effects is zero.”
“Let’s not talk about how technically difficult it is to do this. From the perspective of purpose alone, Qingshan Pharmaceutical has no motivation to do this!”
“Many netizens say that Qingshan Pharmaceutical wants to use one drug for two purposes and create demand for ‘ITG human myelopoietin’ out of thin air. But if Qingshan Pharmaceutical really wanted to make money, the domestic price of ‘ITG human myelopoietin’ might have been as low as 2800 yuan per injection!”
“Even if they set the price at 12,000 yuan per shot, there will be plenty of patients willing to pay for the treatment, and they don’t have to bear the current stigma. Why bother?”
Su Lin nodded in agreement.
As the CEO of a pharmaceutical research and development company, he can understand even better than other ordinary people that almost every drug produced by Qingshan Pharmaceutical benefits the majority of patients.
This point impressed him even though he was a competitor.
“Huh, Wenping, you’re right. Haha, it’s just that… Qingshan Pharmaceutical is really at a loss for words now. It’s hard to explain.”
There are many people who hold the same view as Hengrui executives, and Lucas, who is far away in the British Isles, is one of them.
After seeing the news reports about “Ibetuzumab” on the Internet, he angrily refuted the large number of haters who questioned Tsingshan Pharmaceutical on social media, and also sent a comforting text message to Zhang Yang.
Friedman on the other side of the ocean holds the same view.
but……
“Idiots, do these lowly creatures really think that the side effects of a top-notch drug are so easy to control? They can develop any side effects they want?!”
“But it reminds me… Qingshan Pharmaceutical’s ‘ITG Human Myelopoietin’ is good, but the number of patients who have been completely cured is decreasing, and the annual sales volume is also decreasing!”
“Now it’s time to raise the price!”
As he spoke, he picked up the phone on the desk:
“John, can you check how much ‘ITG human myelopoietin’, which is the agent of Qingshan Pharmaceutical, is left in our warehouse?”
“Mr. Vice President, please wait a moment… Um, there are about 60,000 more. What’s the matter?”
“Okay, order another batch of ‘ITG human myelopoietin’ from Qingshan Pharmaceutical, then announce to the public that the supply is tight and stop supplying it to major public hospitals.”
“Supply shortage?”
The voice on the other end of the phone was surprised:
“Mr. Friedman, all the major hospitals have good cooperation with us. It seems a bit unreasonable that the supply is suddenly tight?!”
Friedman smiled grimly:
“Then find a reason to set fire to our factory and say that the production workshop was shut down due to a fire.”
“But…our ITG synergists are all imported from Qingshan Pharmaceutical…”
“Then find a media report that a container of ‘ITG human myelopoietin’ fell into the sea. Anyway…”
“I don’t care what happens to Qingshan Pharmaceutical, but we are going to raise the price!”
……
Different parties have different views on the side effects of “ITG” in treating “ibacteriumab”, and Zhang Yang, who is in the whirlpool of public opinion, feels somewhat helpless.
Qingshan Pharmaceutical, in Zhang Yang’s office.
“Zhang Yang, in the past two days, many domestic and foreign media have wanted to interview us on this topic. I rejected them all according to your request.”
“It’s just that… the public opinion on the Internet is very intense right now. Is it really appropriate for us to completely refuse to be interviewed and let the public opinion ferment?”
Compared with Zhang Yang, Ren Xiaomin faced a large number of media and bore greater pressure.
Especially when you know the truth, it is even more difficult to accept this kind of “cold treatment”.
Zhang Yang also frowned.
After a moment, he comforted her, “Brother Ren, don’t be so anxious. We had anticipated this situation before the plan was announced.”
“It’s just that it’s not appropriate for us to explain at this time. Sometimes the more we say, the more we take the initiative to clarify, the more topics and traffic we get.”
“Instead of doing this, it’s better not to respond. Once the heat has died down, we can think of a way to explain it. Anyway, we know that we have a clear conscience, right?”
“Besides, Brother Ren, haven’t you also seen that many netizens on the Internet are actually supporting us?”
“What are you afraid of? The people have sharp eyes!”
Ren Xiaomin sighed heavily.
Having said that,
But if it’s like this… I always feel a little unwilling!
After a moment, he sighed helplessly and said:
“Okay, Zhang Yang, I understand the reason.”
“However, have you considered finding a way to solve the side effect of ‘ibumaxin’ causing bone marrow failure?
“Have you got any ideas?”
“oh?!”
Zhang Yang was slightly stunned. After Ren Xiaomin came to Qingshan Pharmaceutical, he was mainly responsible for the internal management of the company. He had been away from the R&D position for a long time and had not been involved in R&D related work.
Hearing Ren Xiaomin talking about drug development at this time surprised him. He couldn’t help but laugh and said jokingly:
“What’s the matter, Brother Ren, do you want to discuss the follow-up research and development plan with me?”
“Go to hell, your brother Ren is no longer keeping up with the times…”
Ren Xiaomin shook his head, and the atmosphere between the two of them relaxed:
“To be honest, I just want to know the progress of the follow-up research and development. I want to wait until the day when we solve the side effect of bone marrow failure, give Heizi a slap in the face, and accept an interview with pride!”
“Haha, Brother Ren, you are really petty.”
Zhang Yang shook his head:
“But… we must find a way to solve the side effect of bone marrow failure!”
“Speaking of this, you’ve reminded me. I won’t talk to you anymore. I have to talk to Wei Tian and Dr. Zhou about this.”
“All right……”
Zhang Yang immediately picked up his phone and prepared to look for Wei Tian. Ren Xiaomin followed closely and prepared to go to the office to do his own things.
But just as he reached the door, he suddenly remembered something else and hurriedly called out to Zhang Yang in front of him:
“By the way, Zhang Yang, wait, there’s one more thing I almost forgot.”
Zhang Yang stopped.
“What’s wrong, Ren?”
Ren Xiaomin walked up quickly and lowered his voice.
“It’s another matter. Didn’t we get approval for a P4 biological laboratory before?”
“Recently, all the formalities have been completed. Secretary Bai has also specially arranged for a professional person to work with me. If nothing goes wrong, we should be able to officially start work in the next two days.”
“I’m just reminding you that you’d better call and thank Secretary Bai for his help!”
Zhang Yang rolled his eyes and nodded.
He suddenly thought of another thing behind the “P4 Laboratory”: he had promised Secretary Bai, or more precisely, he had promised Elder Xinghui to help transform the “T14 pneumonia virus”.
I did agree to it.
I have gained a lot of benefits, but I have not made any progress at all!
However, there is no need to be too anxious about slacking off on public affairs. Just wait until you are urged to do so!
Zhang Yang couldn’t help but smile in his heart, then looked at Ren Xiaomin and said:
“Brother Ren, I understand. I will personally call Secretary Bai on the first day of work!”
“okay.”
After a brief conversation, Zhang Yang put the matter behind him again.
Soon, he crossed the path in the park and arrived at Qingshan Pharmaceutical’s drug research and development center.
As soon as he walked into the large office of the first project team, Zhang Yang saw Wei Tian and Dr. Zhou, both smiling in the small cubicle against the wall.
“Zhou Bo, Wei Tian, you two seem to be laughing happily. What’s wrong? Have you made any new discoveries?”
“How can there be a discovery so soon? Boss, the donkeys in the production team won’t be urged like this!”
“Ha ha!”
Zhang Yang laughed and said:
“Then why are you laughing?”
“What are you laughing at? Boss, this question you asked is really weird!”
“The most serious side effect of ‘Ivolumab’ combination therapy has been solved, which means that our ‘Ivolumab’ combination therapy can be fully extended to all ‘acute leukemia’ patients. This is of course worth celebrating!”
“Isn’t this our original goal?”
As he spoke, Wei Tian was stunned, and suddenly thought of the public opinion that “ITG human myelopoietin” had caused on the Internet in the past few days.
Suddenly he laughed again and said:
“Boss, you don’t think we will be as troubled as you and Mr. Ren by the public opinions on the Internet, right?!”
“You must be joking. We are just researchers. We just treat the public opinions on the Internet as a joke!”
Zhang Yang suddenly thought of the helplessness he felt when he and Ren Xiaomin were discussing public opinion in the office just now. Then, listening to Wei Tian’s mocking words, he suddenly said angrily:
“Well, since you two can’t feel the pressure, I’m going to give you some.”
“Although the side effects of ‘ibuzumab’ combination therapy can currently be solved by ‘ITG myelopoietin’,…the goal of our next generation of drugs is definitely to reduce side effects and improve efficacy!”
“Now let’s talk about this professional thing!”
Wei Tian wailed, and soon several people rushed into the small compartment.
They are the team leaders of each group, and they came to participate in this professional discussion meeting on the research and development of the side effects of “Ibetuzumab”.
This is what happened with Tsingshan Pharmaceutical. When everyone was questioning it, they had already started to respond to the doubts with actions.
When the truly perfect “Ibetumumab” with few side effects appears, the previous ridicule and doubts will be the best footnotes for Tsingshan Pharmaceutical.
