Cao Xiaoliang looked somewhat embarrassed after hearing what Director Ma said.
He was naturally familiar with the medicine the other party mentioned.
The prescription was imported from Switzerland. The Cao family spent a lot of money to buy the distribution rights and monopolize this imported medicine.
Later, the father and son discussed it and improved the recipe.
It's called an improvement, but in reality, it's just to increase sales by reducing the efficacy of the medicine to less than one-tenth of its original level.
However, the price has increased dozens of times!
The Cao family made a fortune selling this medicine, and to celebrate, Cao Xiaoliang even bought a Lamborghini.
Cao Tianwang, trembling, grabbed Cao Xiaoliang's arm and said breathlessly, "Quick, call the family pharmaceutical factory and ask if they still have any of the original stock!"
"Okay, Dad, don't worry, I'll call the pharmaceutical company right away!"
Cao Xiaoliang picked up the phone and contacted the pharmaceutical factory.
The factory manager answered the phone personally and respectfully asked, "Young Master, what are your instructions for calling?"
Cao Xiaoliang quickly asked, "I'm asking you, do we still have any stock of that ALS treatment we produced before?"
The factory manager was taken aback for a moment, then replied, "Oh, young master, that was several years ago. Where would we find any stock left? Even if we did, it would have expired long ago and is unusable!"
Cao Xiaoliang's face was grim as he looked at Cao Tianwang. "Dad, we're out of stock!"
Cao Tianwang hurriedly said, "Then, then you should quickly have him produce it for me according to the old formula!"
Cao Xiaoliang nodded and quickly instructed into the phone, "My dad wants you to start production immediately according to the old prescription!"
Upon hearing this, the factory manager smiled wryly and said, "Young Master Cao, aren't you putting me in a difficult position? The chairman previously said that the profit margin of that prescription was too small and asked me to shut down the production line. Now you want me to produce it, but I can't! It will take at least six months. We also need to invite relevant experts to come and conduct experiments, and apply for approval for raw materials and production codes in advance. This whole process will take a year and a half!"
"Damn, so you mean it will take two years to reproduce this drug?" Cao Xiaoliang's expression twitched. His father had this disease, and he only had two or three years left at most. By the time the drug was produced, he would probably be dead!
Upon hearing this news, Cao Tianwang's mind went blank for a moment.
At this moment, he finally understood how much pain and despair those patients whose lives were delayed by special drugs were experiencing!
I regret it!
If I had known I would get ALS, I shouldn't have stopped producing this drug in the first place!
Now look what's happened, they've cut off their own path to survival!
What should we do? What should we do?
He doesn't want to die! Waaaaah!
Cao Tianwang couldn't hold back anymore and burst into tears on the spot.
Cao Xiaoliang quickly pulled Director Ma aside and asked, "Director Ma, isn't there any other way? Isn't your Huajun Hospital known as 'Little Harmony'? Bring all your experts over and think of another solution!"
Director Ma shook his head. "Young Master Cao, even if you go to Yandu Harmony Hospital, there's not much they can do for this kind of illness. Western medicine is the only option left! However, the traditional Chinese medicine culture of our Great Xia is profound and extensive. I suggest you try the traditional Chinese medicine route!"
Director Ma offered constructive suggestions at the end, which could be considered a piece of advice.
At this moment, Cao Tianwang suddenly remembered something, abruptly raised his head, grabbed Cao Xiaoliang and said, "Quick, go, go to the city hospital, find, find the man surnamed Lin, he is a top doctor, he will definitely have a way!"
At this moment, the only person he could think of was Lin Yu. If Lin Yu could cure paralysis, maybe he could also find a cure for ALS!
Cao Xiaoliang was stunned for a moment, then said with a bitter face, "Dad, don't forget, we just offended him, and now we have to go back and beg him. We can't save face..."
Snap!
Cao Tianwang used all his strength to throw a huge punch, yelling, "You wretch! I'm about to die, what do I care about saving face! If you don't take me with you, I'll donate all my assets and leave you not a single penny!"
No one in this world is unafraid of death!
The richer you are, the more afraid you are of dying!
Now that he is seriously ill, Cao Tianwang has realized the preciousness of life!
Money, son—none of that mattered as much as his life. He wanted to live, to live!!
"Yes, yes, Dad, don't worry, I'll take you to the city hospital right away!"
Left with no other choice, Cao Xiaoliang took Cao Tianwang to the city hospital.
The hospital was almost closing time, but Lin Yu, Su Bingchen, and the others hadn't left yet.
It seems they were just waiting for them to come back.
After Cao Tianwang and his son arrived, they knelt down in front of Lin Yu with a thud.
"Dr. Lin, please save me! I'll do anything, no matter the cost!" Cao Tianwang cried out, tears streaming down his face.
Cao Xiaoliang quickly said to Cao Zhiruo, "Sister, Dad has ALS and there's no cure. Please beg Doctor Lin to treat Dad!"
Cao Zhiruo was stunned.
She originally thought that Doctor Lin was just saying it casually, but she didn't expect that the father and son would actually come back and kneel down to beg him.
But why did my father get this disease? ALS?
This is a terminal illness!
For a moment, she was at a loss, and looked at Lin Yu, "Dr. Lin..."
Lin Yu's expression was indifferent as he said calmly, "There are three types of people I will not save! The heartless and ungrateful! The utterly wicked! The treacherous and faithless!"
"Your father favors sons over daughters and kicked you out of the house. That's heartless and ungrateful!"
"This father and son monopolized the market, hoarded good medicines, raised drug prices, and harmed the people. This is utterly immoral and heinous!"
"I originally intended to let them go, but I didn't expect them to break their promise and deceive me. This is a betrayal of trust!"
