Chapter 1505: Pharmaceutical Storm

“Rejected!”

“Negotiations are forever held within the range of cannons. They don’t even have a gun. What right do they have to negotiate?”

“Rejected!”

…

Thus, the meeting came to an end.

The next day, Fangzheng received a message from above. After reading it, he said indifferently, “We don’t have the ability to bargain? One needs to have the strength to negotiate? This Penniless Monk isn’t begging you, but simply giving you a way out… If you don’t take the path of paradise, go to hell.”

On this day, Li Xuan came in a helicopter and brought a few old men with him.

Fangzheng received them in the Frost Bamboo forest. No one knew what they discussed…

People only knew that the few old men were extremely excited when they left. They clenched their fists and left with their heads held high, looking like young men!

Three days later, China announced to the public that the Pure Land Corporation was officially established. The company would be state-owned and all the drugs produced were only sold for two yuan per bottle!

When this news came out, all the pharmaceutical companies in the world were amused…

Because this price was basically not profitable!

Most importantly, this company did not seem to have any products.

Switzerland, inside the Spritz Group.

“Haha… Napes, is this the China you’re talking about? Establishing a company that doesn’t even have any pharmaceutical products. All it does is shout a meaningless slogan?”

“Napes, I don’t think your recent strategies are perfect.”

“Napes, if you continue doing this, we’ll consider letting Gareth take your place.”

…

Napes said, “Everyone, after you laugh, take a look at my resignation letter. You are old and can’t keep up with the times… I’m preparing to apply for a job at the Pure Land Corporation. If I’m not wrong, it will be the best pharmaceutical company in the world!”

With that said, Napes left under stunned gazes…

Then, there was a wave of scolding in the meeting room!

“What shortsightedness!”

“Napes, you are so disappointing!”

“What a bastard!”

…

However, before they could finish scolding, another piece of news was released.

The Pure Land Corporation announced to the public that the first batch of drugs were: Haemocleanse 1 which could completely cure leukemia and Cardiac Strength 1 which could completely treat heart diseases.

After reading the news, the conference room fell silent…

Then, an uproar broke out in the meeting room!

“Impossible!”

“It’s impossible for China to have such superb medical skills!”

“This must be a scam!”

“Damn it, if this is true, what else will we have left? The money I invested in will be gone!”

“The medicine that has been produced will be worse than scraps!”

…

At the same time, the pharmaceutical companies around the world were also stunned by this news!

Wouldn’t a complete cure mean that the two diseases would be completely removed from the historical stage?

At the same time, a group of people began wailing. This was because once the medicine was listed, countless companies would instantly collapse!

All of a sudden, there were sounds of protest…

However, the cheers also started flooding the Internet…

This was especially so in China. The people who were about to go bankrupt from their medical bills suddenly saw hope and excitedly huddled together…

Right on the heels of that, Pure Land Corporation announced to the public: “The drugs will be sent to various designated major hospitals tomorrow. Patients can only purchase and consume the drugs by providing their medical records and be under the supervision of their doctors. Reselling is prohibited. Once discovered, the Pure Land Corporation would ban them. In the future, drugs such as anti-cancer drugs that are still being researched will not be sold to them and their immediate family.

“Due to the production quantity and costs, drugs are only sold in China. If other countries want to buy them, their governments will have to bear the burden of the costs before any exports are considered. As for the exact price, it is to be determined through further discussion.”

After this piece of news was released, a large number of people gathered at the entrance of the major hospitals in China. In the end, the hospitals were already prepared. They eased everyone and made them line up in an orderly manner and guaranteed that everyone could buy the drugs.

At the same time, countless people wrote into their governments, requesting that their governments negotiate with China immediately and import the drugs!

However, the governments were dumbfounded. How could they negotiate it? China was clearly trying to cut fleece the whole world to earn research funding and profits so that they could benefit their own citizens! Under such an absolute monopoly, no one had the right to negotiate with China!

Hence, everyone fell silent…

At the same time, those who had a headache included the pharmaceutical manufacturers who had been unfriendly to China!

This was especially so after another piece of news broke…

“Today, the Pure Land Corporation provided a list of drugs that they are already developing and are about to succeed. It includes eighty percent of the currently known diseases, as well as many anti-cancer medicines. Furthermore, it claims that all of them can be cured! All the patents belong to One Finger Monastery, Abbot Fangzheng! All the drugs will be sold at the same price, two yuan!”

“China is smashing everyone’s jobs!”

“This is too much!”

“They aren’t leaving us anything at all!”

“We need to object to this!”

Therefore, under the government’s tacit approval, many pharmaceutical companies encouraged a large number of patients to go on a parade to protest against China’s “bloodsucking” behavior.

However, China’s Pure Land Corporation remained unmoved. It quietly listed out the prices that many foreign pharmaceutical manufacturers charged China. When they saw the sky-high prices of the drugs in China, many people fell silent…

Then, the Pure Land Corporation announced: “Compared to other pharmaceutical manufacturers, China can’t be considered a ‘profiteer.’ China has its own human-centered principles of selling drugs at the lowest price in China. This is to help the people. As for collecting research and development fees overseas and earning profits, there’s nothing wrong with that, right? Besides, we’re not collecting the money from patients, but from the countries.

“This is because we know very well that according to the prices set by the various pharmaceutical manufacturers, most patients would not be able to afford these drugs, so they will only be able to await death…

“We believe that protecting the health of our citizens is a country’s responsibility. Therefore, we only charge the country and sell it to the patient at a low price… This price is sky-high for ordinary people, but it’s nothing to the country.

“Therefore, since everyone has time to protest against the Pure Land Corporation, why don’t you protest against your government’s disregard for your life? Or perhaps you can try another political party…”

After the Pure Land Corporation’s announcement, the demonstrations started to change. In the end, they all turned to the government and demanded that the government pay for the research and development fees. After several government buildings were blocked for a few days, the government also became angry…

“I’ve long let those black-hearted businessmen go easy. All of them are like hungry wolves trying to snatch meat! The tables have turned. Now that things have reached us. It’s their turn to be unlucky!”

“I propose to collect a monopoly penalty from all major pharmaceutical manufacturers! This money can be used to pay for China’s research and development fees!”

“If we do this, these corporations will probably die.”

“Take a look at the Pure Land Corporation’s drugs. Do you think they can still be saved even if we don’t punish them?”

“I agree with the punishment!”

“Aye!”
