Chapter 140 Bad Idea
Beijing City.
In the pharmaceutical factory's conference room, Kong Manzhu angrily slammed a stack of documents on the table.
He shouted, "What's going on this month? Why are there so many chargebacks?"
The head of the sales department immediately stepped forward and tried his best to distance himself from the matter.
"Director Kong, the efficacy of our products is really not as good as that of the First Pharmaceutical Factory in Province Z. People can find the difference after buying them and comparing them."
"In the past two days, our department has visited all the surrounding hospitals, clinics and pharmacies, and this is the result after we tried our best to save the situation."
"Professor Liu, what do you think?" The implication was that all the responsibility was put on the R&D department.
Liu Shengqiang is the head of the R&D department. He is mainly responsible for developing drugs with his researchers.
"Director, our product is developed based on the original medicine. The effect is definitely not as good as other people's original formula that has been around for hundreds or thousands of years." Liu Shengqiang said with a wry smile.
"Now that the market for all kinds of drugs is so huge, we might as well give up hemostatic drugs and switch to other niche areas."
Cold medicines, antipyretics, cough suppressants and topical medicines that we use in our daily lives are all very promising.
You can definitely make a lot of money, so there is no need to obsess over comparing with other pharmaceutical companies.
Moreover, Liu Shengqiang’s previous focus was on pharmaceutical manufacturing, and he currently has several new drug projects in hand, which can be developed within a few months.
Nowadays, new drugs do not require clinical trials or approval from pharmaceutical authorities before they can be marketed.
If we persist for a few more months and have our own products, the factory will be able to revive and maintain stable profits every month.
"Give up?" Kong Manzhu's voice was sharp.
"I didn't hire you with a high salary just to let you back out. I gave you so much time, and you still haven't figured out a simple formula for hemostatic powder?"
Kong Manzhu was so angry that she swept everything at hand off the table, completely disregarding the dignity of an old professor, and continued to curse while pointing at his nose.
"For me, professors and the like are just empty titles. I only care about the results."
"I'll give you another month. If you can't come up with the solution, take your team and leave. I don't want to keep idle people here."
It sounded good, but they simply gave up on the hemostatic drug. In addition to having more orders in the first month, the factory also made some money.
If we give up halfway now, new drug research and development requires money, the workers need money, and the machines on the production line need to repay the loan every month.
Kong Manzhu now has no way out if the factory’s capital chain is broken.
Even if she spent all her family fortune, she couldn't fill this huge hole, so now she could only put pressure on her employees.
Besides, she had to compete with Lin Yunxi. If she gave up now, wouldn't that woman laugh at her?
Professor Liu has taught countless students throughout his life. This time he accepted Mr. Kong’s invitation because he wanted to make use of his remaining energy after retirement.
Now that he is in this factory, not only does he not have the freedom to develop new drugs, but he also has to plagiarize other people's formulas. The old professor really can't do it.
He stood up and said, "Director Kong, I'm afraid I can't fulfill your request. I will resign now and not cause any trouble to you or the factory."
What Kong Manzhu said before was just an angry remark, but she saw that Liu Shengqiang was not tactful at all and did not give her any face.
She said directly with a cold face: "Okay, I'll quit halfway and I won't get any salary this month."
Professor Liu nodded and walked out of the meeting room.
After all the participants were silent for a moment, Kong Manzhu's secretary advised.
"Director, this is inappropriate. Once Professor Liu leaves, his students will not be able to stay. We are counting on them to analyze the formula as soon as possible."
Kong Manzhu was furious at the moment: "Let them go. Jing City is full of talented people. Are you still worried that you won't be able to recruit a second team?"
Now, except for a few hospitals that have good relations with her father, most of the remaining orders have been returned.
There was a large backlog of goods in the factory, and Kong Manzhu had no choice but to lower the price again and again.
After all, the types of medicinal materials used in these pirated hemostatic powders are similar to Lin Yunxi's formula, and they are more or less effective, so there are hospitals willing to buy them at low prices.
So all the money earned from the previous month was lost again, and in the end, the employees were still owed a month’s salary.
Seeing that Lin Yunxi's business was booming, Kong Manzhu was so angry that her teeth were about to break.
Now she could only hope to develop the formula of hemostatic drug as soon as possible and turn the situation around.
Kong Manzhu's eyes rolled and an idea suddenly came to her mind. She called her subordinates and gave them some instructions.
Finally, he said: "Only success is allowed, not failure. Try to choose someone who is easy to handle."
"clear."
Lin Yunxi, on the other hand, had no idea that Kong Manzhu was plotting something bad again. After she finished dealing with all the matters at the factory.
He returned home early in the afternoon. Lin Yunxi was going on a business trip for the next week.
In the afternoon, she received a document personally approved by Uncle Jiang, which specifically approved her to go to various places in person to recruit expert teams.
