The head office immediately sent Representative Zhao to discuss the acquisition and demanded that they must buy the formula for the drug at all costs.
"Mr. Chen, we meet again." Representative Zhao said with a smile on his face, and this time his attitude was very humble.
He came here to ask for help this time, he is not that stupid.
"Why is my boss coming here to laugh at us this time?"
"I don't dare, I don't dare! I'm sorry for offending you last time, Mr. Chen, please don't hold it against me... I apologize to you here."
Representative Zhao said with a nod.
Chen Fang smiled and did not respond. He knew why the man named Zhao came this time. He probably came to buy his prescription.
This Chinese medicine is different from Western medicine. The ingredients in Western medicine can be analyzed by instruments. It is because of patent protection that Gleevec can be sold at such a high price in China.
They simply couldn't analyze what Lima was made of. It contained only grass roots, tree barks, etc. that they considered worthless.
"Mr. Chen, I wonder if you have time now. I have something I want to talk to you about."
"Okay, let's talk, let's talk!"
Chen Fang said with a wry smile.
This made Representative Zhao confused. He couldn't just say, "I want to buy your prescription." He knew the Chinese people's tricks.
Many of these deals were concluded over the dinner table. Today he also ordered a meal in Shanghai. It was the company's bill anyway, so he didn't have to worry about it.
"Mr. Chen, are you free now? Can we have dinner together?"
"No need to eat. Just tell me what you want to say. I don't like beating around the bush."
Chen Fang looked at the medical representatives who looked like decent people and really had no good impression of them, especially the one named Zhao in front of him.
"Since Mr. Chen said so, I will say it directly. Novavax attaches great importance to your new drug. We believe that your new drug will be a good thing for leukemia patients all over the world. However, if you only rely on your own strength, it will take a long time to benefit all mankind."
"For the development of human health, Nova is willing to sponsor you and provide you with assistance."
This Zhao guy is also a shrewd person. He obviously wanted to buy Chen Fang's prescription, but he didn't say that. Instead, he directly used the health of all mankind to flatter Chen Fang.
"Oh, Representative Zhao, I don't quite understand how this has become a matter for all mankind?"
Chen Fang laughed.
"Mr. Chen, that's not necessarily true. This is a drug for treating leukemia. Once it's on the market, it will benefit all of humanity."
Representative Zhao spoke with righteous words and an air of selflessness, as if he himself believed it.
"Mr. Zhao, you must have misunderstood! Even if my drug is launched on the market, I have no intention of selling it to other countries for the time being."
Chen Fang said indifferently, "We haven't done anything well in China yet, so why sell it to foreigners?" Moreover, some of these medicinal herbs are relatively scarce.
In order to conceal his tracks, Chen Fang not only bought many more kinds of medicinal herbs, but there were simply too many permutations and combinations.
"what?"
Representative Zhao felt as if he had heard wrongly. Isn't this medicine sold abroad? There are a lot of rich people abroad, and this is a lot of money.
"That's it. I don't need Nova's kindness anymore."
"Mr. Chen, as long as you agree to sell the prescription, these tens of millions of ugly yuan will be deposited into your account immediately."
Representative Zhao directly used his trump card. He didn't believe that Chen Fang would not be tempted by tens of millions of ugly yuan.
"And with our help, there are mature sales channels both at home and abroad, and we can work with Novavax to deliver this drug to more patients in need."
Representative Zhao continued, as if cooperating with them would be beneficial with no harm at all.
"Haha, Representative Zhao, how much are you going to sell it for?"
Chen Fang smiled. Considering the nature of Nova Company, this would cost at least several hundred thousand.
"This price is definitely worth it, because we are cooperating with each other." Representative Zhao smiled. The price must be hundreds of thousands, because Gleevec costs tens of thousands, so shouldn't the medicine that can cure the disease be more expensive?
The Swiss headquarters has now suspended the production of Gleevec. They stopped after confirming the efficacy of the drug. If they continue to produce it, who will they sell it to?
Although the production cost of this drug is very low, capitalists are good at calculating.
"Forget it. I know very well what pharmaceutical giants are like. I'd better do it myself. I don't need your investment. As for selling the prescription, it's nonsense. You can leave now."
Chen Fang waved his hand and prepared to see the guest off.
"Mr. Chen, many procedures for new drugs are not easy to complete, and even if you get the domestic production and sales license, you will definitely not be able to pass it internationally."
When Representative Zhao saw that Chen Fang refused to give in, he started threatening him directly.
"I'm asking you, Mr. Zhao, are you an idiot? I've just said that I have no intention of selling to foreign countries. This has no effect on me at all."
As for the patients abroad, Chen Fang will not be able to take care of them, at least in the past few years. When the time comes, they will be the ones who will be anxious, and they will take to the streets to protest themselves.
This medicine belongs to the seller's market, so there is no need to worry about sales.
Representative Zhao was scolded by Chen Fang, but he couldn't say anything. Now the other party has the upper hand.
"Mr. Chen, let's wait and see. I don't believe that you sold fake medicine in the past. I can't find evidence. Selling fake medicine will lead to jail time, hehe."
This guy really has no memory and even started to say harsh words.
Chen Fang didn't bother to be polite and directly called Huangmao to ask him to teach this Zhao guy a lesson.
When the man surnamed Zhao walked out of the company, his face and nose were already bruised and swollen. Anyway, it was Huangmao who did it, so he was not afraid. He thought that since it was Huangmao who beat him up, he would just have to stay in jail for a few days.
A month later, Chen Fang's pharmaceutical factory received approval, which meant that large-scale production could begin.
Now Novavax is even more anxious, because they know that once this drug can be mass-produced, the domestic market for Gleevec will be finished.
Representative Zhao has been in the medical field in Shanghai for so many years, so he must have some connections. He immediately mobilized his connections to trip up Chen Fang.
The main reason was that he couldn't find any evidence that Chen was selling fake drugs, so it was unrealistic to put him in jail first.
Soon, many departments came to Chen Fang's pharmaceutical factory to investigate. Fortunately, Chen Fang had always followed the regulations, otherwise it would have been really troublesome.
The relevant departments saw that Chen Fang's pharmaceutical factory was operating in accordance with regulations, so they didn't do anything. The main thing is that someone reported it, so you have to come and investigate.
The Swiss headquarters had already scolded Representative Zhao so much that they later sent a senior representative from the headquarters, still wanting to acquire the prescription from Chen Fang, or at least get the right to sell it overseas.
This is still a question of interests. Although they know that Chen Fang had sold fake drugs in the country before, now there is an opportunity for cooperation, so they can certainly turn enemies into friends.
"Mr. Chen, there are people from Nova Company outside, including the man named Zhao and a foreigner."
Liu Sihui walked in and said that the consulting company had been disbanded, so everyone had moved to the pharmaceutical factory to work.
"Oh, there's a foreigner, let them in." It just so happened that Chen Fang also wanted to meet someone from Nova Company.
"it is good."
Five minutes later, Representative Zhao and a foreigner entered the office. It seemed that this person held a high position.
Chen Fang's medicine can cure leukemia, so Novavax certainly attaches great importance to it.
"Mr. Chen, congratulations on the successful launch of your drug, which has saved countless leukemia patients. It is really a great achievement. Now let's talk about a new way of cooperation. Our Nova company wants to acquire your pharmaceutical factory, production base and related patents. The price is negotiable, as long as you agree..."
When Representative Zhao came in, he started to flatter Chen and had completely forgotten about the beating he got last time.
If he fails to make the acquisition or reach other cooperation this time, he can pack up and leave.
"The pharmaceutical company doesn't sell the prescription, so there's no need to talk about that anymore."
If Nova can help with sales overseas, then we can cooperate. Now Nova is still very strong, and this is not the China of the future, so we can still cooperate. As for selling the prescription and patent, let's not talk about it.
"Mr. Chen..."
Representative Zhao wanted to say something but was immediately interrupted by the foreigner next to him.
"Hello, Mr. Chen... I am Tom Ding from the Swiss headquarters... Nice to meet you..."
Tom Ding? This made Chen Fang almost laugh out loud. Tom Ding*Yizhen, right?
Representative Zhao wanted to help translate, but was interrupted by Chen Fang. Chen Fang knew English. The manager had traveled to so many worlds and had learned English a long time ago.
"Mr. Tom Ding, nice to meet you... I know why you're here. Forget about selling the patent for the medicine, but I can give you the overseas sales rights."
Anyway, Chen Fang can't reach overseas markets now, so why not make use of Nova's sales channels?
"Mr. Chen, are you telling the truth?" Tom Ding seemed very happy. This was also good. They were just trying to make money, and producing medicine was just a by-product.
"of course."
Chen Fang said with a smile that by then the foreign patients would only curse their Nova company and it would have nothing to do with Chen Fang.
The domestic selling price is 500 yuan, and the agency rights of Nova Company are 50,000 yuan. Chen Fang is not afraid that foreign patients will come to China for treatment, because this is simply not feasible.
A qualified medication system will be established in the future.
"Oh, Mr. Chen, this is really good news. I think you will definitely be happy about this cooperation in the future."
Tom Ding said with some pride, isn't it? Their Nova company is a world-renowned pharmaceutical company. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Representative Zhao next to him.
Why is there such a loser? Chen Fang is obviously easy to talk to, right? Why can't we just talk to this loser?
Chapter 388 I am not the God of Medicine.
Fortunately, Chen Fang agreed to give them the agency business, so they can talk about it. After all, it’s all about money, so there’s no need to hesitate.
As the old saying goes, there are no eternal enemies or friends, only eternal interests.
"Mr. Chen, how much is the international price for this?"
Tom Ding asked.
"Fifty thousand. This is the price I'll give you. I don't care how much you sell it for. Is this okay?"
Chen Fang said as if he had suffered a great loss.
"Isn't this too expensive?" Tom Ding said after hesitating for a moment. In fact, the price is not expensive. Compared with the Gleevec from their Novavax company, it is quite reasonable.
But the domestic price is only 500 yuan, but if I sell it to them it would be 50,000 yuan. How can we tolerate this?
"It's not expensive. Isn't your Gleevec only over a thousand yuan in other places? It's over 40,000 yuan here, and Gleevec can't completely cure it..."
The other place Chen Fang mentioned was Australia, where Gleevec is indeed only over a thousand dollars.
"This...I'm afraid we can't accept that."
Tom Ding hesitated for a moment, and then said that they have always been strong, and now the Chinese are treating them like this. The position has suddenly changed, and they certainly cannot accept it.
"Forget it then. I believe other pharmaceutical groups would love to cooperate with me, except for your Nova Group... hehe."
Chen Fang just wants to sell the drugs and doesn't necessarily have to cooperate with Nova Group.
Although the Nova Group is considered one of the three largest pharmaceutical companies, there are obviously other giants.
Tom Ding's face suddenly turned dark. Indeed, Chen Fang's words were very useful. There was indeed more than one pharmaceutical company in the world, the Nova Group.
Other groups are also very powerful, especially some big conglomerates in the Ugly Country. I won’t even mention them.
If you think about it carefully, the price of 50,000 is not unacceptable. After all, the disease can be completely cured, and they can even multiply the price several times.
"Mr. Chen, are you sure that the medicine won't leak out of China? Or what if people from other countries come to China for treatment?"
This is the issue that Tom Ding is concerned about.
"Hehe, don't worry. This medicine will not have any agents in China. It is all directly sold by our company. You must take the doctor's diagnosis and take it on the spot in the company. The prerequisite is that we are Chinese citizens..."
This batch of drugs that Chen Fang has will not flow into hospitals, and there will not be any crappy agents. When the time comes, a square cabin hospital like the ones in later generations will be built only to treat leukemia.
"Well... we can accept that, but it must be written into the treaty."
Tom Ding was relieved now. As long as not a single bottle of medicine could flow out of China and international patients could not come to China to buy it, wouldn't he be able to make a lot of money?
He also understood that the Nova Group might be criticized, but since it made money, let them be criticized. It wouldn't lose any money anyway. Hasn't the Nova Group been criticized enough over the years?
It's still opening well.
"Well, that's fine! But this guy named Zhao has to leave. I don't like him." Chen Fang pointed at Representative Zhao.
"no problem."
Tom Ding agreed readily. Representative Zhao had caused such huge losses to the company, so it was a good thing that he was not held responsible.
Representative Zhao stood aside with a very grim look on his face. This was just a dog of Nova Company. He would be used when needed and fired if not.
After signing the contract, Tom Ding left the pharmaceutical factory happily. In this way, the company might be able to make up for the losses from Gleevec.
Representative Zhao no longer looked like the successful man he was on TV. He just left the pharmaceutical factory in a daze.
