Lin Sanqi looked at the professors of pharmacy and said seriously:
"Bao'an Pharmaceutical Factory cannot rely solely on my personal support. I have now brought the raw materials, and the instructions and production process are written down in the materials. When the drugs can be produced next depends on you.
My view has always been that it is better to make it yourself than to buy it, no matter how high the cost is.
So you can be bold and confident in your experiments and strive to localize the cephalosporin API as soon as possible. I will do my best to supply you with whatever funds and equipment you need!
We cannot be lazy in science and technology. Don’t think that purchasing from foreign countries is simple and easy, without having to use your own brain, and without having to bear the consequences of project failure.
Have you ever thought about this question: what if one day foreign countries stop selling to us? Are they setting a trap for us?
Finally, I want to say to you, "It is better to take precautions before they happen and to curb trouble before it happens."
Professor Chai blushed and said helplessly:
"Commissioner Lin, the advanced nature of the medicine you brought back far exceeds what we are currently researching. We are still in the process of learning, and we are still lacking in innovative inventions."
Lin Sanqi sighed inwardly, thinking that if it weren't for the purpose of concealing his tracks, he really wouldn't want to support a drug research team.
Trying to invent drugs is truly a bottomless pit, and historical experience decades later told him so.
Apart from the antimalarial drug artemisinin (the patent is still in the hands of foreigners), there are almost no other so-called original Western medicines.
All domestic original drugs are concentrated in the field of traditional Chinese medicine
Things like Compound Danshen Drops, Astragalus and Ginseng Qi-Yi Drops, Injectable Qi-Yi Fumai Needles, etc., cannot be promoted worldwide.
After the meeting, Lin Sanqi and Shen Guoming kept Yuan Mingjie, the director of Baoan Pharmaceutical Factory.
"Old Yuan, you have the heaviest workload right now. On the one hand, you have to take care of the production of anti-tuberculosis drugs, and on the other hand, you have to start the trial production of antibacterial drugs. You've worked really hard."
Yuan Mingjie is already in his sixties, but he still speaks with full energy:
"Commissioner Lin, if I had been greedy for enjoyment, I would not have returned to China. So as long as I have work to do and can contribute to the country and society, I will be content and happy.
Just tell me what tasks you have, and I will make sure to complete them clearly, haha."
Lin Sanqi then spoke:
"Next is the time when our Baoan Pharmaceutical Factory will expand rapidly. Antibacterial drugs are different from anti-tuberculosis drugs. They are used by more people and have higher sales, so we need to plan ahead.
My initial plan is to arrange 50 production lines for anti-tuberculosis drugs and at least 200 production lines for antibiotics. This is only the task to be completed this year, and it will be expanded later.
So you need to make a plan on how much equipment and pharmaceutical factory workers are needed. I said I will be the logistics director. As for how to produce, it's your expertise, so I'll leave it all to you.
Godfather, you have a heavy task as well. I am ready to establish trade relations with major provinces across the country, purchase their Chinese medicinal materials, and send them all to Bao'an County to make various Chinese medicine secret recipes.
First of all, it is mainly to solve the livelihood problems of my senior brothers and sisters.
Secondly, it is also for sales needs. Currently, the supply is in short supply, and our Lingnan Hall urgently needs more Chinese medicine pills."
Shen Guoming said casually:
"Don't worry about that. I've already ordered the railway troops to start production at full capacity. We can complete the construction of the factory within 5 square kilometers this year. As soon as your production line arrives, we can start operating at least 300 lines.
As for the 50 square kilometers of salt fields, leveling work has already begun. There is no shortage of construction machinery and building materials. The entire project will be completed quickly and will definitely be ready for use next year.
The main problem now is that you prepared the anti-tuberculosis drug for a year, and then tested it for another year with the cooperation of the Harvard team and the Hong Kong team. After two years of accumulation, it became a hit.
But now you have to produce three more antibacterial drugs, a fever-reducing and pain-relieving drug, and a stomach medicine.
Without a lot of laboratory data and international papers to support it, how can we convince foreigners? How can we sell it to them?
Lin Sanqi touched his chin and thought:
“The reason why I was so eager to sell anti-tuberculosis drugs was because we were so poor. When I first founded the Capital Infectious Disease Hospital, I was the only one who provided blood transfusions, medicines, and food, clothing, housing, and transportation for all the hospital staff.
Now, we have our first pot of gold, so there is no need to rush and we can plan slowly. It's not that I am short-sighted, but I am satisfied with this little money.
There is no such thing as too much money, but making money is not such an urgent matter now, so I plan to change my approach and take the initiative to lure them into the trap.
The value of proactive sales promotion is different from their door-to-door purchase. Just think about the anti-tuberculosis drug we sell for 1,000 yuan and they sell for 10,000 yuan. My heart bleeds."
Unlike Lin Sanqi's heartache, he felt that he had missed out on hundreds of millions.
Shen Guoming and Yuan Mingjie didn't feel anything. They even felt that Bao'an County was already very satisfied to earn so many dollars.
This is the different consequences caused by different situations. Lin Sanqi wants to make some trouble, but Shen Yuan and others are content with the status quo.
"Godfather, Director Yuan, you're in Bao'an now, so you should have heard about smuggling, right? At night, Houhai Bay and Dapeng Bay are filled with smuggling boats.
The current smuggling is about smuggling good things from abroad into the country. Next, we have to do the opposite and prevent foreigners from smuggling the medicines we produce abroad.
I plan to promote antibacterial drugs in China first. The 20 tons of raw materials I brought this time are enough for us to produce a large number of drugs, which will be supplied preferentially to domestic and Hong Kong hospitals, and will not be sold abroad for the time being.
Then I plan to acquire a Western medicine hospital in Hong Kong under the name of Lingnan Hall. The several antibiotics I brought out today are only sold in our hospital, just to whet your appetite.
There is no way. Hong Kong is now the only window for external communication of the motherland. It is useless if my hospital is located in Shanghai or Huadu. Without foreigners coming, there is no way to make a name for itself.
Once the local people in Hong Kong have tasted the magic of oral antibiotics, this news will definitely be passed back to China by agents from various countries lurking in Hong Kong. There will even be a large number of scalpers who secretly resell our antibiotics and smuggle them to other countries.
Once the miraculous properties of Hong Kong Lingnan Tang Pharmaceuticals spread throughout the international medical community, those money-hungry investors will surely come rushing to collaborate with me. "Willn't I be able to set any terms then?"
Shen Guoming was a little puzzled:
"Didn't you previously work well with the Anthony team in the US and the Witte team in Eagle Country? Can't you just continue selling drugs to them?"
Lin Sanqi waved his hand and denied it:
"We can't put all our eggs in one basket. If I let them sell all my medicines, they will control the sales channels and will strangle us in the future.
Will you ask us to lower our wholesale price when the time comes?
If they don't agree, they won't sell. You can't do anything about it. After all, the contract has been signed and the sales contract is exclusive. You can't win the lawsuit.
Or maybe foreign governments will get jealous and start acting like hooligans, directly demanding that these two companies stop selling Chinese medicines, or else impose penalties, etc., and then our overseas channels will be passively cut off.
Therefore, the more partners the better, and the risks should be shared equally, so that they can be competitive with each other. This way, they will feel pressured and will not stab us in the back.
In the face of interests, talking about friendship is ridiculous. Business is business, and friends are friends. We must keep them clearly separated."
Shen Guoming sighed and said:
"Human prejudice is like a mountain. We clearly want to make friends and have friendly exchanges with people all over the world. But foreign countries insist on restricting us in various ways, discriminating against us and being hostile. Why is this so?"
Lin Sanqi wanted to laugh when he heard this, thinking that in another time and space, our country was desperately promoting globalization and the development of a free market.
However, developed countries such as Europe and the United States are advocating "national priority", not allowing foreign capital to enter, and not allowing domestic enterprises to move abroad, which is more planned than a planned economy.
This is a typical double standard. (End of this chapter)
