After a moment's silence, Wang Hanlin said, "Okay, I understand what Dean Lin means." His brows furrowed slightly, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.
Lin Lin keenly caught the change in his expression and couldn't help feeling helpless.
She had a deep friendship with the Wang brothers and sisters, but now, because of the difficult new drug collaboration, it seemed as if an invisible barrier had been created between them.
Seeing that Wang Hanlin's face looked a little unhappy, Lin Lin thought about her relationship with the Wang brothers and sisters, and sighed helplessly.
She took two steps forward, approached Wang Hanlin, and whispered, "There are only two of us in the office now, so I'd better call you Third Brother!"
There was sincerity and a hint of intimacy in her eyes and tone when she looked at Wang Hanlin, trying to ease the somewhat tense atmosphere.
"Regarding this new pharmaceutical collaboration, the reason I declined was not only the risk of side effects, but also because the original intended companion pharmaceutical had not yet been developed."
Lin Lin's expression instantly became extremely serious. She stared directly at Wang Hanlin with a sharp gaze, her eyes filled with unquestionable professionalism. That look seemed like a solid line of defense, guarding the rigor of medical science.
"The development of this drug is an extremely rigorous process that does not tolerate any carelessness."
"In this process, the loss of any link is like losing a key cornerstone of a building, which is very likely to lead to unimaginable serious consequences."
"This not only concerns the reputation of our hospital among the general public, but also the lives and safety of countless patients."
"Although the successfully developed drug is currently suitable for use alone, from a long-term perspective and in the best interests of patients, it would be more effective to use it in combination with another drug that is currently under development."
"The two complement each other, just like two key pieces of a puzzle. Only when they are put together can they bring out their greatest value."
"We must not be too eager for quick results and blinded by profit to ignore the potential harm to patients."
"We are practitioners in the medical industry, and the health of patients is the starting point and end point of all our actions."
After a pause, she said frankly, "I won't hide it from you, Third Brother. I did have the idea of becoming a pharmaceutical supplier."
As she said this, her eyes were fixed on Wang Hanlin, not missing the slightest change in his facial expression. There was a hint of hesitation and some determination in her eyes.
Seeing that his expression didn't change much, Lin Lin continued, "We can rely on our own strength to become a pharmaceutical supplier, thus avoiding the complex issues that may arise from cooperating with other pharmaceutical companies."
"In the complex pharmaceutical industry, collaboration can enable resource sharing, but it also comes with many complications."
"I thought, if we can become a pharmaceutical supplier on our own, we can control every step independently and avoid the complex issues that may arise when cooperating with other pharmaceutical companies."
"For example, intellectual property disputes, uneven distribution of benefits, and possible ideological differences can all affect the progress of drug development and promotion."
"But the other half of the drug is still in the research and development stage and has not yet been completed. Those ideas are just unrealistic fantasies at the moment."
"Besides, my main focus is on the hospital. As for the idea of becoming a supplier..."
As Lin Lin spoke, she paced around the office. Her high heels made crisp sounds on the polished floor, as if keeping the beat of her words.
Her thoughts drifted back to the days when she studied potion formulas day and night, a process of countless hopes and disappointments.
Hearing this, Wang Hanlin nodded thoughtfully. He did not take Lin Lin's idea of becoming a pharmaceutical supplier too seriously.
After all, she was originally a supplier, and he only obtained the general agency rights from her and distributed on her behalf.
The reason she wanted to become a supplier was simply to have control over all aspects of the process and ensure that every step from drug research and development to sales met her almost stringent standards.
But Wang Hanlin understood that the business world was like a battlefield, and the conflicts of interest involved were far more complicated than she had imagined.
The current mess of this new pharmaceutical cooperation is like a tangled mess, with every thread involving countless troubles.
Lin Lin may be motivated by a pure pursuit of medicine, but those competitors hiding in the shadows and the capital forces eyeing him will not easily let go of this piece of fat meat.
However, he was also very confident in himself. Having worked with Lin Lin so many times, he believed that he still had a certain priority here.
In every past collaboration, Wang Hanlin led Wang's Pharmaceutical to complete each project with extremely high professionalism and integrity.
I picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. The warm tea flowed down my throat, bringing a sense of comfort.
He stood up and straightened his clothes, every movement appearing calm and confident.
He walked to Lin Lin's side, his leather shoes making a slight and rhythmic sound on the smooth floor.
Standing next to Lin Lin and looking at the scenery outside the window, he said, "If the supporting pharmaceutical product is successfully developed, you should consider us first when looking for pharmaceutical agents to sell it!"
His gaze into the distance revealed his unwavering anticipation for the new potion. The sunlight from the window shone on his face, outlining the strong lines of his features.
The city in the distance was bustling with traffic and tall buildings were lined up one after another, but his mind was entirely on the conversation in this small office.
Lin Lin also smiled and said, "Of course. After all, we have cooperated so many times. I still trust Wang Pharmaceutical."
The somewhat solemn atmosphere in the office was dispelled at this moment, and the two of them stood in front of the glass window and started chatting.
Suddenly, Wang Hanlin mentioned Hao Ren who had surgery today.
He asked doubtfully, "Then the patient this time is using..."
But before Wang Hanlin could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lin Lin.
She cleared her throat twice, lifted the hair that had fallen from her ears, and said, "The patient's condition is rather special, so it's not appropriate to discuss it too much."
After this, the conversation between the two came to an abrupt end.
Lin Lin quietly watched Wang Hanlin leave Ankang Hospital. His back gradually went away, and Lin Lin's mood became heavier.
The sunlight passed through the glass, casting mottled shadows on the ground, but she could not feel any warmth at all. She only felt a huge shadow weighing heavily on her heart.
The shadow was like a ferocious monster with its bloody mouth wide open, as if it would tear the hard-earned stable situation in front of it into pieces in the next second, plunging everything into endless darkness and chaos.
