Chapter 467 The Battle Begins
To the Winter Palace.
Council Hall.
Tian Pu, the group's general manager of medical affairs, hesitated for a long time before reporting the news to Yu Zhongxian.
He actually wanted to conceal the news, but the plummeting revenue of the group could not be concealed, so he had no choice but to come and report it as soon as possible to get himself out of the matter.
After listening to Tian Pu's report, especially when he heard that all the representatives of the pharmaceutical group were wiped out in Changshan County, and his pharmaceutical group's representatives were among them, Yu Zhongxian's face turned purple.
Tian Pu said hurriedly, "Master General, this is not my fault. Changshan County's medicine is truly effective. They've actually found a stable receptor protein to mark cancer cells. The effect is groundbreaking, and the price has been reduced to just 10,000 yuan. Cancer has been completely conquered!"
Bang!
The million-dollar artwork exploded onto the ground with a resounding bang, breaking into countless glittering fragments.
Yu Zhongxian's anger erupted like a volcano.
"How much is it? How much money have been allocated to you? Ten billion? Or twenty billion?"
Yu Zhongxian's harsh face was distorted with anger.
The group is facing financial difficulties, and the Dead Sea base is at a critical stage in research and development. First, important raw materials were lost, and then the industry was hit hard. The Council suffered consecutive major blows. The empire he painstakingly created was collapsing like a castle on the beach. How could he not be furious?
"waste!"
In extreme rage, Yu Zhongxian kicked Tian Pu down, picked up the phone and gave instructions to Wang Xinwei.
"Destroy Changshan County's research and development base at all costs!"
He also issued orders to Johnson & Johnson's biochemical research and development base.
"We will make every effort to crack the code for new cancer drugs and develop them as quickly as possible."
Afterwards, Yu Zhongxian suppressed his anger and had a brief communication with all the medical groups in the empire, and reached an agreement to fight back against Changshan County's monopoly and dumping at all costs.
He also contacted the Imperial Chief of Pharmacy.
However, the Chief Pharmaceutical Officer, who had always been submissive in front of him, did not agree to his request.
"Master Yu, the medicine in Changshan County is specially approved by the Supreme Council. I don't have the authority to manage it."
"Lord Jiang, Changshan County's drug hasn't even undergone clinical trials. This is irresponsible to patient safety. For the safety of the Empire's citizens, we should immediately ban its sale. There's no need to bother the Supreme Council with such a small matter. Of course, I'm aware of Lord Jiang's hard work and contributions."
However, the Chief of Pharmacy didn't seem to understand Yu Zhongxian's obvious hint and simply said, "Changshan County's drug has undergone phase five clinical trials."
Yu Zhongxian said coldly: "The third phase of clinical trials has not been made public, so how can we achieve the fifth phase?"
"Master Yu, Changshan County was created using computer simulation. They have already developed this technology."
The voice on the other end of the line was calm, not as flattering as before.
"Johnson Group should focus on developing more technology and using its products to defeat Changshan County. This will benefit the empire."
A strong anger attacked Yu Zhongxian's heart. These words almost told him to stop doing evil things and do his job seriously.
Since he came to power, he has never suffered such humiliation.
"Okay." He gritted his teeth and said, "Master Jiang has a noble character and is upright and upright. You should be a role model for the Council. I will promote you well."
"Thank you, Master Yu. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first."
Click, the phone was hung up.
The beeping sound from the microphone pierced his nerves like a sharp knife.
Bang!
Yu Zhongxian threw the entire phone to the ground, angrily smashed the entire room to pieces, and beat to death a few blind bastards before picking up a new phone and asking his allies for help.
Lin Yabo and Mo Xili are die-hard fans, while Cheng Wei and Luo Nuo are allies.
The four elders all provided him with assistance to varying degrees, which helped stabilize Yu Zhongxian's shaky situation slightly.
Elder Lin Yabo also holds a large stake in the medical field. He specifically told Yu Zhongxian that he had developed some insiders in Changshan County and might be able to steal the formula.
This made Yu Zhongxian feel a little relieved.
Afterwards, Yu Zhongxian took advantage of the murder of the medical representative and united all the enemies that Changshan County had offended in the past, and convened a meeting of the next level of the Supreme Elders Council, attempting to try Lin Wen in absentia.
But unfortunately, Changshan County has a permanent representative stationed in the imperial capital.
Yun Zhixing was ordered by the eldest lady to stay here specifically to guard against such situations.
He heard the news and took action on behalf of Changshan County. He used online video to get County Chief Lin to attend the trial, thus ruining their plan of holding a trial in absentia.
A lot of people attended this meeting, from the relatives of the black businessmen and corrupt officials who were killed by Lin Wen first, to the grain group that was offended later, and the medical group that was offended now. The entire conference room was filled with people sitting up and down, all of whom wished Lin Wen dead.
From ordinary merchants to the elders of the empire, everyone gathered together and the court was full.
Many people cried bitterly and felt the warm side of the empire for the first time. The countless forces of justice gathered together made them feel that the human demons entrenched in Changshan County were about to die.
At the beginning of the meeting, everyone was indignant and spitting at the mouth, frantically denouncing Lin Wenzhi's brutality and rebellion, and listing all of Lin Wenzhi's unforgivable crimes.
Everyone was in high spirits, waiting for the devil to appear.
A moment later.
When Lin Wen's face appeared on the screen, they thought he would burst into tears and kneel down to beg for mercy.
But alas, all the video shows is a dusty, super impatient face.
Lin Wen had just finished the ground work and was using his remaining strength to dig the foundation when Qin Luoshuang forcibly dragged him back from the construction site.
Lin Wen said impatiently, "If you have anything to say, come on!"
With just one sentence, the situation got out of control. There was a continuous sound of jumping, cursing, and shouting. The huge noise was like a shredder in a garbage recycling yard.
"Quiet! Quiet!"
Congressional representative Yang Guozhong jumped out.
He was the biggest victim of the food war. He was at the forefront of the fight with Changshan County, but in the end he lost everything.
He did not resent the elder for cashing out first, but instead blamed Changshan County for opposing him and causing him to lose everything.
This time, given the opportunity, he would naturally be willing to be the vanguard in the attack on Changshan County again.
"Everyone, listen to me."
"Let us conquer this demon with the principles of justice!"
The meeting hall fell silent. Yang Guozhong strode over to the video and shouted, "Lin Wen, Governor of Changshan Commandery, did you murder Xu Renchao and the other seventeen representatives who came to the talks because the negotiations broke down?"
Lin Wen sneered, "They forced their way into the construction site, startling the robots and causing a stampede."
The entire venue was extremely quiet at first, and then erupted into an even louder roar.
"nonsense!"
"Killing people at will, framing people at will! He is lawless, lawless!"
"As long as this demon is on earth, there will be no peace in this world!"
"He brutally slaughtered loyal and righteous people, and used clumsy lies to get away with it. This is simply unbearable!"
"Judgment! Judgment!"
"Shoot him!"
"demon!"
A man in church attire rushed up to him.
"In the name of God, I judge you: die, die, die!"
He chanted the spell frantically and blew air at the video image of Lin Wen.
Lin Wen looked at him expressionlessly. He blew his cheeks so hard that they hurt, but the person in the video didn't react at all.
"Mad is retarded."
Lin Wen's patience ran out, and he turned and left. "Don't call me for this kind of rubbish meeting anymore. I might as well dig two more pounds of soil."
Qin Luoshuang also felt that this was ridiculous, so she stopped trying to stop him and said to the video: "It's over. Changshan County will not accept any of your rulings."
Crack.
The video went black, and Yun Zhixing stood up politely: "Everyone, County Chief Lin, please exit. You can continue."
"Catch him!"
"Hang this brat!"
Yun Zhixing ignored him, put away the big screen, kicked away the person who was blocking him, and walked out.
Many people came up to stop him, but he was agile and knocked them to the ground one by one.
The Emperor is not allowed to bring any guards into the Tower, and there are no armed personnel except the Imperial Garrison.
None of these pampered guys were a match for Yun Zhixing, who was a former agent. They were all beaten until they were bleeding and rolling on the ground wailing.
When Yun Zhixing went out, there were already people lying on the ground.
Seeing that the Imperial Garrison Commander remained motionless, Lin Yabo knew that this meeting would most likely produce no results.
Sure enough, when they took the verdict to the Great Elder, the Great Elder simply said, "Since it was an accident, compensation should be paid according to the accident."
Lin Yabo said respectfully, "Your Excellency, Lord Pingyuan, Changshan County's actions are disrupting the market, breaking the normal market order, and attempting to create a monopoly. If Changshan County becomes too powerful, it will be detrimental to the empire."
"Then fine according to the law."
Lin Yabo could only bow and retreat.
He knew that the political attack was over. Changshan County was a region with military power, and any enforcement of it would require the approval of the Supreme Council.
The Imperial Headquarters has no law enforcement authority, and you gentlemen clearly do not want to get involved in this mess.
If it can't be passed in the absence of Changshan County's biggest backer, the emperor of the empire, then there's no hope.
There are only two other methods left.
Lin Yabo and Yu Zhongxian jointly convened the medical group to take some measures for Changshan County's new drugs.
1. Launching public opinion to smear.
Second, a large number of counterfeit new drugs are manufactured, mixed in and medical accidents are exposed.
3. Force all hospitals and pharmacies to ban the sale of Changshan County’s new drugs.
And use physical means at the same time.
1. Destroy Changshan County’s production base.
2. Steal Changshan County’s formula and process.
In the next few days, the medical group headed by Yu Zhongxian and Lin Yabo fought tit-for-tat with Changshan County in various fields.
But the effect is far less good than expected.
First of all, they were completely at a disadvantage in the field of propaganda. All the propaganda methods of Changshan County completely crushed them. Ordinary people would rather believe Changshan County’s advertisements and ignore their propaganda.
"Bah, they're all fake."
"It's just that those guys selling fake goods are unwilling to accept that their business has been taken away."
"Changshan County's new drug destroyed their business."
"No matter how many million-dollar medicines can't cure it, Changshan County's new medicine for ten thousand dollars can cure it. How can they not be anxious?"
These opinions were not only widely circulated among patients, but also passed back to Cao Yuan.
He couldn't help but sigh, "How could these ordinary people be so sensible?"
Lin Wen, who was guiding him on the next step of the promotion, smiled and said, "Everyone has sharp eyes. You usually act high and mighty, and others are speechless. But no one is stupid. Everyone has a scale in their heart, and they know who is good and who is bad."
Cao Yuan sighed, "Chief Lin, you are truly worthy of being called such a great man."
Cheng Qingqing took the opportunity to boast: "Chief Lin's insightful opinions are beyond the reach of you and me."
Cao Yuan smiled and continued, "What's our next strategy?"
Lin Wen said, "I bet they're going to fake drugs and create medical accidents. You should have mentioned this in your publicity campaign. If they know what's good for them, they'll naturally back off. If they don't, the agents from the Changqing Bureau won't be pushovers."
Cheng Qingqing and the other three knew that Changshan County had established a new spy organization, and they couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
Their previous dealings in the Long-Term Cooperation Department were discovered, and not only did they have to vomit out what they had eaten, but they were also severely fined.
This is Lin Wen's new revenue generation method. Anyone who embezzles money will be fined ten times the amount. If it causes adverse consequences, it will naturally be handed over to Fang Yaobo. If there are no adverse consequences, the matter will be settled with a fine.
This move almost eradicated corruption. Of course, this was mainly due to Qin Luoshuang's powerful spy force, and part of it was due to Lin Wen.
He didn't even need to use [Immortal Guidance], he could tell just by looking at [Observing the Qi and People].
Moreover, Changshan County's wage system after the reform is not bad, and the welfare benefits are excellent. All five human needs can be met. As long as you work hard, you will have no problem worrying about food and clothing for the rest of your life. If you work harder and win some honors, even your children will have no problem worrying about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
Therefore, all officials, regardless of their rank, worked hard. The Ministry of Personnel strictly controlled the promotion of officials. They must have made sufficient contributions to Changshan County and their abilities met the requirements.
The management system that Xia Xiaoxiang established with the help of Lin Wen was excellent. Even after she temporarily left the Ministry of Personnel to take charge of the affairs of the pharmaceutical company and her deputy Xu Xiaonan took over the work, no problems arose.
The relatively transparent promotion rules and relatively fair environment have created a good cycle in Changshan County.
Changshan County is heading towards his ideal direction.
It won't be long before it becomes the promised land in the hearts of countless people.
