Chapter 53：

Two days later, Li Zheng got the Indian formula.

The Indian recipe contains the same active ingredients as Li Zheng’s pamine but the inactive ingredients are slightly different. Xu Mingsheng called it "Pamisatin mixed with water".

“India’s drug testing is relatively loose, and I believe their medicine will be marketed earlier than bamine and satin.” Xu Mingsheng has a topic of drug-resistant strains at hand, because the speech made by the Singapore National College of Medicine at the Asian Biopharmaceutical Conference last time He got new inspiration. No, the next year will not be too young, but I will stay in the laboratory all day and night.

"So what. It is impossible for large global pharmaceutical companies to cooperate with Indian pharmaceutical companies. Their drug sales channels are too narrow, and may even be limited to domestic and a few third world countries. Teacher, have you heard a word? Channel is king."

Channel is king.

In the 1980s, no more than the 21st century, Internet retail has not yet appeared, and pharmaceutical companies and their distributors control global drug supply channels. They would not agree that India's generic drugs would move their ready-made cheeses.

Xu Mingsheng took a deep look at Li Zheng, and the more he touched him, the more terrifying he found this young man. There are some things that even he, an old man who has eaten more than a few decades, can't see clearly, but in Li Zheng's eyes it is clear.

How wise to approach a demon, Xu Mingsheng suddenly came up with this word.

Li Zheng hadn’t been out of the laboratory for nearly a week. When he walked out of the laboratory, Li Zheng was still a little uncomfortable. The sun shone on his face, giving people an extremely dazzling feeling. He blocked it with his hand. Before he recovered, he heard one. The sound of heavy objects falling on the ground.

"Oh! It hurts me!" David exclaimed.

Li Zheng's slightly pale face showed a helpless expression, "Why are you so ghost..." He was clearly dressed in a neat suit and tie, but he tied the tie loosely, like a pink rope hanging around his neck. The gray suit pants are wrinkled at the front and back of the knees, which is really not beautiful.

David patted his trouser legs and stood up from the ground, "Lee, you have been in the laboratory for eight days!"

In fact, David has been to Xiangjiang University several times, but every time he came, Li Zheng happened to be in the laboratory. He waited from morning to night, and ran into that annoying Daniel several times, but never saw Li Zheng.

According to reliable sources, the speed of generic drugs in India is very fast, and it has entered the infant clinical trials in just one and a half months, which makes David unable to sit still. He has been in Xiangjiang University for two days, and he lives in the guest house of Xiangjiang University. He goes to the entrance of the laboratory as a statue every morning and stands until the evening.

A tall and handsome foreign friend waited at the door of the laboratory every day, which also caused quite a stir in the campus of Xiangjiang University.

However, Huang Tian paid off, he finally waited for his little genius.

"Oh? It's been so long?" I don't know the year in the mountains. This is the word used in ancient Chinese mythology to describe the practice of the gods. When I reach Li Zheng, it means "I don't know the day and night in the laboratory."

"But you were just right when you came out." David moved his legs that were slightly numb from the long absence, and smiled smugly.

Because Daniel just left an hour ago. Although he left some people before he left, the weight of the people underneath is naturally different from the weight of David, the real executive vice president of Roche Asia.

Li Zheng glanced at the Pfizer employee who was forcibly pulled by several Roche employees to speak, and couldn't help laughing.

"Give me a meal, just because I am a little hungry," he said.

David was overjoyed, "My honor. What do you like to eat Western food or Chinese food, or I recently tried Malaysian food, it tastes very strange."

The two talked and walked towards the school gate. When passing the school gate, Li Zheng raised his eyes to see He Zhongmingzheng and a middle-aged man arguing about something, his emotions seemed a little excited.

In Li Zheng's impression, He Zhongming is a person who cherishes feathers very much. Yelling at the school gate made the passing classmates keep looking at him, not like what he would do.

And that middle-aged man...

Li Zheng's eyes were narrowed, and he seemed to be kind.

"Li, someone you know?" David followed Li Zheng's gaze and saw He Zhongming's face that was a little distorted because of his excitement.

"I know, but not familiar." Li Zheng glanced lightly, then turned his head back.

The two sat down in a Cantonese restaurant not far from the school entrance. This restaurant is not very big. The owner and wife are Cantonese, a typical mom-and-pop shop.

There were no boxes in the store, and Li Zheng chose a position by the window.

"Lee, you are really approachable." David has contacted many scholars, most of whom are very particular about details, and such small shops will generally not enter.

Li Zheng laughed, "That's because they are old and pay attention to health preservation. I am young and can eat anything." Some of the old seniors he met in his previous life were also very particular about eating. It was not them who put on airs, but they were older. Don't pay attention to it.

David accepted the dining table culture of China well, and when two chopsticks were down, he went directly to the topic.

"Li, I think you also guessed why I came to you, are you interested in working with Roche?"

Li Zheng paused with his chopsticks, "The market expectation of paminesatin is not optimistic, and India already has generic drugs. Some large countries with frostemia disease around him will be covered by the sales scope of generic drugs. To be honest, if the price is not If it is high, there will not be much profit for pamineridine."

Li Zheng put down his chopsticks and sat up slightly, "But if the price is too high, it will not be in line with my original intention."

David shrugged, "So the price I will give is not very high, but you know, Roche is not short of money."

Yes, Roche is not short of money. What it lacks is medicine, original medicine.

The pharmaceutical industry has always been in short supply due to the particularity of the industry. Pharmaceutical giants such as Pfizer, Novartis, Merck, and Roche have similar drug sales channels and similar production lines. The only difference is the drug research and development capabilities.

A new drug is not only a market and profit for these pharmaceutical giants, but also a resource and competitiveness. Moreover, these pharmaceutical companies will be labeled anti-humanitarian by those associations almost every three to five. Every year, they donate tens of millions of charitable funds to maintain their corporate image.

What if you use the money to buy an original drug? David submitted this proposal a week ago. Mr. Robert called his office in person and repeatedly urged him to take the patent right of pamineridine!

You donate tens of millions, just a few pages of media coverage, not necessarily the headlines. But an original drug! An original drug for special diseases! If Roche successfully obtains the patent right and sells it at a low price in the name of charity, then every time frostemia is mentioned in the future, Roche's charity will be mentioned. This is simply a profitable business.

As for profit. The biggest cost of drugs, especially western medicine, is drug development. Western medicine is actually composed of compounds, and the production cost is really not high. There have always been rumors that the cost of medicines is only a few cents, but it costs hundreds or even thousands of dollars to sell them to patients. If we only talk about the cost of pharmaceutical materials, this sentence is not an exaggeration.

Therefore, although the profit of pamineridine is low, it is not a problem to protect the capital.

Li Zheng picked up a piece of beef and put it in his mouth, chewing slowly, before he spoke for a while, "Tell me about your plan."

David was overjoyed. He was about to speak when the store door was pushed open, and Daniel strode in.

He probably jogged all the way, his breath was still a bit disordered, and a reserved and polite smile appeared on Daniel's face. After slowly calming his breath, he walked towards Li Zheng's table.

Most of the customers in the small shop were students and office workers nearby. Seeing two handsome foreign friends in a row, they seemed a little excited, and many tables gave out low exclamations.

"Mr. Li Zheng, I finally saw you. I just went back in a hurry because of something with the company. I didn't expect to miss you." Daniel moved a chair by himself and sat down next to David.

David peeled his mouth out without a smile, "Mr. Watson is really well informed. You came here as soon as we sat down."

Daniel took out his handkerchief and wiped the glass. "Mr. David is polite. If the Roche employees were not too enthusiastic, I believe I would arrive sooner."

Li Zheng touched his nose, he raised his hand, "Boss, add another pair of chopsticks."

With Pfizer making a cross cut, the two sides once again formed a competitive situation, which is beneficial to Li Zheng, but Li Zheng does not intend to sit on the ground this time and raise the price.

He leaned back slightly, "Roche and Pfizer are both top-ranked pharmaceutical companies in the world. As I said at the Asian Biopharmaceutical Conference, my patent fees for paminerazine will be donated to Li Zheng's Special Disease Research. Foundation. Therefore, the emergence of paminerazine is to treat diseases and bring hope to those poor and suffering children."

Li Zheng's words made both David and Daniel serious. The chopsticks they put down in their hands, and the smell of smoke between the two of them also disappeared.

"Lee, don't worry. The price of pamisatin will never be high, and Roche is a socially responsible company." While David promised, he did not forget to lift Roche.

"Mr. Li Zheng, Pfizer has won the Most Socially Responsible Outstanding Enterprise Award in the United States for three consecutive years. From 1980 to 1982, Pfizer successively launched the Sairee Charity Donation Project and the Cardoin Charity Donation Project, and after the outbreak of malaria in Africa , Mobilized more than five million US dollars in cash and relief supplies immediately. Pfizer is willing to join you in the grand event. "Daniel said very beautifully.

Li Zheng gave a dry cough, and Yu Guang glanced at David's face and couldn't help laughing. It seems that David is deflated all the time against Daniel.

Li Zheng put his hands on the table, he glanced over the two of them, and said: "My request is very simple. First, the price is within the acceptable range of the people of the third world countries. Further publicity should bring the name of Li Zheng's laboratory"

When Li Zheng said, both David and Daniel were surprised, and Li Zheng's conditions were not harsh. The first condition is that Roche and Pfizer did not expect to make too much profit on the special disease drug such as pamisatin. As for the second condition... Daniel's mouth couldn't help but squeezed into a straight line.

This condition sounds easy, but it is not so easy to do. There must be a hurdle at Pfizer headquarters.

If it is an internationally renowned laboratory such as Cold Spring Harbor, it is good to say that this request is made, but the current Li Zheng laboratory is little known, even if Li Zheng has already produced two outstanding results in a row, but it is similar to those laboratories with profound knowledge. Presumably the gap is still too big. The Chinese people in ancient times had a saying that "injured Zhongyong". Who can guarantee that Li Zheng is the next Zhongyong?

"Mr. Li Zheng, I have to go back and discuss your request with the headquarters."

"Lee, I promise!"

David and Daniel spoke at the same time, and Daniel almost looked at David Andorio who was sitting next to him with a surprised look. It reads brightly in his eyes, are you crazy? !
