Great fusion of heaven and earth

Chapter 1569 Potion of Dignity
A person has only one life, and in this life, whether the quality is good or not, and how he lives, is up to him to decide, because in life all choices are made by himself, there is no need to blame others, the fork in the road of life You can only rely on yourself for this kind of thing. What others give may not be right, nor may it be what you want.

But the length of life can be chosen by oneself, and it cannot be chosen by oneself.

Because human beings are fragile, a small cold can kill human beings, so we have doctors, medicine, and various medicines, all of which are for a longer and healthier existence.

It's just this most basic requirement, the most expensive requirement in the night market in this world, life is priceless.

And the medicines that keep life alive are valuable, so a lot of pharmaceutical companies have been born, and they all rely on these medicines to support themselves.

How big is the pharmaceutical market?
A conservative estimate is more than one trillion US dollars, and the highest may exceed two trillion, because many health care products are also sold under the name of medical supplies, but these things are not included in the pharmaceutical market, and there are many deceitful people. The counterfeit medicines are not included in this market, so this market is a bottomless market.

The world's large pharmaceutical companies are all in the West. They rely on their monopoly on chemistry, medicine, and biology, as well as the data obtained from human trials during the war years, to control most of the pharmaceutical market.

Only a little residue leaks from their fingers, and then companies from other countries compete for it, and they also monopolize a large number of life-saving medicines for major diseases, allowing others to exchange their lives for money, and the price is different for the same life.

The price of the same medicine varies from country to country. Some countries have no shortage of money, but medicines are very cheap, while some countries are underdeveloped, but medicines are the most expensive in the world.

And the country with the most expensive medicines in the world is generally Zhuxia!
It's like I'm not Glenin in the God of Medicine, how much is the cost of this medicine?

In a big country of generic drugs, the wholesale price of this drug is only five hundred, but how much is it in Zhuxia?Forty thousand, a bottle of forty thousand, one bottle a month!
This price is completely plundering and murdering. Although it seems that the seller just set the price high, in fact the price of this medicine is completely outrageous. They just don't want people in Zhuxia to be able to take the medicine, or They hope that Zhu Xia's people will die.

It’s still the same sentence about human rights. For some people, or some ethnic groups, only I can have them.

Just like those who support racial equality, their biggest request is that their neighbors cannot be the black people they help, because they don't want to live with animals.

Even more so for the rest of the world.

So even though Zhuxia is the largest emerging market for those pharmaceutical companies, they will not compromise on this market. In their view, selling you medicine is a gift.

So their attitude has always been bad, and they have always been contemptuous. Even if they have made money, they still look aggrieved.

And many people in Zhuxia felt it.

And Zhuo Qun also started to do this.

Brought the source of I am not the god of medicine from other worlds, and then found the peers of those actors in this world and spent a lot of money, telling them to sign a contract and shut up, and then this movie will be available in all theaters during the Spring Festival It's out.

After that, a lot of popular science soft articles came out, letting everyone know that the research and development of the drug Glenin has nothing to do with the Nova Group, a company that manufactures and sells Lenin.

The drug Glenin has been aimed at leukemia from the very beginning, and the academic circles have also clarified the pathogenic mechanism of this disease, as long as the research and development of targeted drugs for the pathogenic mechanism is enough, and people in the academic circles do not have any medicine The important preparatory work for the development of this targeted drug was completed with the company's funding.

Moreover, because the pathogenic mechanism is clear, the drug was approved for marketing only after the first phase of clinical trials. It can be said that Nova has picked up the patent of a drug for nothing, and Nova has no scientific research expenditure from the beginning to the end.

Some are only about 1000 million expenditures for the first phase of clinical trials.

The pharmaceutical industry usually justifies the price of those high-priced drugs by saying that the cost of a drug is only five cents, but why sell it for five hundred dollars?Because it is the second drug, the first drug is a prototype, and the development of the prototype drug costs 50 billion US dollars.

This sentence also convinced a considerable number of people, but this time, under Zhuo Qun's operation, discussions started all over the Internet, even internationally, and everyone was very clear about the source of Glenin's research funding. Out.

Although many people think that the timing of this information is too coincidental, but no one thinks that sometimes there is something wrong, because no one can maintain their rationality at this time, and everyone is disturbed by this group opinion. .

Everyone began to investigate the affairs of those pharmaceutical companies, and negative news about pharmaceutical companies continued to break out.

At this time, the whole world knows that some of the high-priced drugs they use actually have newer or older substitutes, and the price of this substitute is still very low, and these drugs are better because of their efficacy. , the price was lower and was eliminated.

Pharmaceutical companies are consciously letting people choose high-priced drugs, especially those in developed countries. Many times, they don’t even know that there are alternatives to high-priced drugs, so they can only spend a lot of money to buy the latest high-priced drugs.

As for the drugs that are also effective at low prices, doctors will not recommend them.

It's like no one knows the retail price of the $750 immune system drug daraprim, which was less than a dollar in the earliest days, although the unit is a tablet.

After knowing this, turmoil occurred directly in many countries, especially the two countries of America and Gaul. They are countries with frequent turmoil, and there are always people who want to make large purchases at zero yuan. The plan, and now they are given this opportunity, so the big purchase started so suddenly.

The process is the same as every previous big purchase. First, people go to the street normally, then some people start shouting and shouting, and then some people start throwing stones, and finally some people start to attack the supermarket. .

Everyone is so familiar with this set of procedures that they can complete it even with their eyes closed, but their target this time is not a supermarket, but a pharmacy. confrontation.

The interests of pharmaceutical companies are much greater than those of manufacturers and sellers of DU, and their interests are exclusive, so they are extremely tough in safeguarding their own interests. After the first pharmacy was smashed, they spent money to let those The pharmacy has its own weapons, and then the zero-yuan purchase becomes shooting across the street.

And in the directly-operated stores of those pharmaceutical companies, this turned into a confrontation with light and heavy weapons, which also caused the total number of shootings in America to soar to the standard of last year in one day.

In this case, those gold dollar COPs didn't even go to the street because they were afraid of death.

"Why did you let this movie be shown in our country! Or is it released on the whole network? Are you guys out of their minds!"

Lucian looked at the Hollywood moguls he had found, and questioned them loudly!

After a long silence, an old man slowly opened his mouth, "Because we have money, the other party offered us money, which is still an amount that we cannot refuse. The screening fee of [-] million yuan for each theater, plus the other party's We don’t even need the income share from the theater chain, it can be said to be free money, why don’t we, this money is more than we can earn from making a blockbuster movie. Just [-] million in cash is enough for us to come out!”

The old man leaned on the sofa, raised his feet, and picked up a glass of red wine, "A matter of free money without breaking the law, put it in front of you, and you decide whether you will do it or not! We are all Yamei Citizens of Liga, we will not refuse this kind of thing, you should understand that."

These words made Lucian's face a little pale, he understood, of course he understood, everything in this country comes first, and everything is viewed with interests in mind, what's wrong with that?
And according to the type of this film, not only is it not wrong, but it may also have merits, because this film is about Zhu Xia, and at the same time it overturns the contemptuous face of pharmaceutical companies. It can be said that it is full of discussions and discussions about human rights. The exploration of life, if it is made in Hollywood, is definitely an Oscar-winning film, and it is still a destined classic.

But the problem is that this film was not made by Hollywood, and it was shot at the wrong time. During this period of time, the entire financial market was not calm, and there have been several circuit breakers. This makes Buffett, who has only seen circuit breakers six times in his life. I saw it four times in these ten days, and now there is a fifth circuit breaker, and it has only been ten days since the first time, and the two-day market break is also counted!
This made Lucian sleep with the bottle of nitroglycerin tablets every day, and take one tablet every half hour, otherwise he was afraid that he would die suddenly from a heart attack.

There is no good news during this period, even many people who were previously scheduled to the island country died, which made many people express their dissatisfaction with him, if it weren't for Lucian who sent some people soon In the past, he may have to accept the case of impeachment.

So now Lucian is a flammable and explosive powder keg.

"Don't you know how this incident will affect our company? A new circuit breaker is coming, so you have nothing to lose?"

Lucian found a new angle to challenge the opponent.

"Loss? What loss? You know that I have cancer. A month ago, I was diagnosed with advanced liver cancer by the hospital. It has been determined that there are not many survivors. I will soon enter Mayo to receive those experimental treatments. "

The old man who spoke said flatly.

"Oh, sorry, Roman, but this way, you are on the side of the pharmaceutical company, their medicine can relieve your pain."

Lucian pointedly said that his goal is to keep the pharmaceutical company, and the employees there are also the middle class of the country, and the middle class is the main force of the country's tax payment. Lucian can't let them lose their jobs, otherwise they will lose their jobs. If something major happens, the government's finances will go bankrupt.

This is not allowed by him. As the first uncle of color, Xi Tiande, Lucian still has his own political ambitions, which is to leave a name in history, but the way of leaving a name like financial bankruptcy is not what he wants .

"Alleviate the Pain" You mean to let me lie on the bed like those animals, let people visit and manipulate, if that's the case, I would rather die, live without dignity, I would rather die!"

Old Roman stood up like a tiger, "Luxian, don't you want to know why I did this? It's simple because I have gained dignity, the dignity of a human being, and they can let me die with dignity! Instead of lying down Waiting to die in a hospital bed! Do you understand! For a person who is doomed to die, being able to choose death is something worth celebrating, and I can choose death by myself, face death calmly, and let myself Leaving this world, instead of leaving this world in the same way as those sick men, who were made to look like ghosts or ghosts, and covered in diseases. I can guarantee that when I die, I will return to the Lord with glory. hug, how come and how come back!"

After speaking, he drew a sign of the cross on his chest. Roman is a devout Catholic.

Listening to his words, Lucian was puzzled, are cancer patients still so full of anger?

"What do you mean by honor?"

Honor means dignity in English, and colleagues also mean honor and glory. At this moment, Lucian is not sure what it means, honor or dignity?
"It's dignity, dignity."

"They gave me the honor pill three times a day, which can make me die as a normal person. This medicine is called the dignity medicine by me. You can't give this kind of thing!"

Roman took out a bottle, and inside the bottle were some pills.

"This is honor, the medicine of dignity, which can make critically ill patients look like normal people. Do you think Pfizer has this!"

Roman looked at the medicine bottle obsessively, this is his dignity, don't tell him that money is not money, money is not as important as this medicine, and don't tell him about the country, in America, all countries are It can be split at any time, and now there is this trend.

The reason why America is not destroyed now is very simple, that is, this layer of skin is still very useful, and the real rulers still need this layer of skin, and America is still a deterrent to the world. Wei is still there.

They can also benefit themselves by relying on the inertia of America's dominance over the world.

But these are ineffective in front of old Roman, because he is about to die, but he does not want to die without dignity, and Zhuo Qun asked him to give him an enhanced version of the Maiboluo capsule, which is the potion of dignity, which allows him to keep Last dignity.

Die with dignity, which is very important for a man who has held power for decades.
