FDA headquarters building.
There has been an atmosphere of fear here recently. Everyone enters and exits the building consciously and quietly, and does not dare to speak loudly, as if they are afraid of attracting the attention of some terrifying entity.
Chief Davis has become increasingly grumpy since he sprained his foot on his last run.
His roars were often heard in the top-floor office, as were the sounds of tables and chairs hitting the walls and cups being thrown.
His patience with his subordinates has also become worse and worse, and he often angrily scolds his subordinates for minor problems.
The female secretary was a little trembling when she saw him. She had already made several mistakes and been scolded this morning alone.
These errors include but are not limited to spelling errors in an email, an extra sugar cube in the coffee, documents not being placed in their original positions after being moved, and the knocking on the door being a little louder, etc.
At this moment, Davis was leaning on the chair, his face so gloomy that he could drip water.
Ever since the last time the doctor suggested taking leave to go to China for medical treatment, he felt suffocated in his heart.
When the sale of Sanqing painkillers was banned, he never expected that he would be slapped in the face so quickly.
Moreover, the most annoying thing is that the ban on sales was not his intention at all.
He is shooting himself in the foot for others.
The anger in my heart intensified along with the pain in my body.
But they can't do anything with Sanqing, let alone revoke the ban.
I had no choice but to vent my anger and scold my subordinates.
He now takes several painkillers every day to slightly relieve the pain and maintain normal work.
After I got home, I didn't dare to eat more, so I had to resist.
I would often roll around in bed and whine in pain, unable to fall asleep for a long time.
It was a hellish day.
But there was nothing he could do. In order to prevent addiction, he did not dare to take heavy opioid painkillers.
I can only take two tablets of tramadol a day to relieve pain, but I dare not take it for a long time because taking too much will have serious side effects.
"Damn pharmaceutical companies, Pfizer, Roche, Bayer, they are a bunch of incompetent trash, why can't they develop non-addictive painkillers?"
"It's all their fault that I'm in such pain now!"
Davis cursed in his heart, feeling the dull pain in his knees, and his heart was extremely frantic.
After scolding these pharmaceutical giants, he picked up the pile of documents on the table and began to review them.
One after another, I read quickly, talking to myself as I read.
"Idiot, this drug has no improvement or innovation at all. There is no need for research and development at all. It is a waste of money and life. The clinical research application must be rejected!"
"What the hell, asking for an extension of the patent exclusivity period is simply unreasonable!"
"Asshole, after the launch of the Phase IV clinical trial, serious adverse reactions were found in patients. Key data must have been concealed."
"Hey, there is a website selling illegal prescription drugs. This is too much and must be severely punished!"
"In addition to these websites, there are many illegal drugs received in the mail by international mail agencies. This is a list of drugs seized and detained by the FDA's Office of Criminal Investigation and is expected to be destroyed in a week."
Davis pulled out the list of illegal drugs seized by the FDA and looked down one by one.
These are unapproved, counterfeit and potentially dangerous drugs, mostly illegal opioids.
Suddenly, his eyes froze, staring closely at a column on the list.
200 boxes of Sanqing painkillers!
His heart was beating violently, and a strong desire surged out of him.
An idea flashed through my mind, startling myself.
"No, no, how could I think that? It must be the damn devil tempting me."
He shook his head, becoming sober in an instant and killing that damn tempting thought completely.
His eyes reluctantly moved away from that name, and it took him a while to read the entire list.
But the whole person has become a little distracted and absent-minded.
His hands were shaking violently, and he wanted to put down the list in his hands, but his hands seemed to be coated with glue, and they were firmly stuck to the list.
He struggled fiercely in his heart. After a while, he sighed and murmured to himself.
"I'll just take a look, it should be fine."
He reopened the list and found the item about Sanqing Painkillers at first glance.
The quantity, location, and time seized were marked in detail.
And the storage room inside the FDA, specific to the number of the drawer.
Davis's breathing became heavier, and he almost subconsciously memorized this series of numbers.
Then he stuffed the list back into the folder like a thief.
My heart was beating loudly and it took a while to calm down.
A tense and exciting feeling filled his whole body, and even the swelling and pain in his knees could not be noticed.
"No, no, the painkillers I'm taking now are fine. We must stop having such dangerous thoughts."
Davis wailed inwardly and walked around the office to calm his inner restlessness.
After finally calming down, he hurried out of the office and went home early.
He really didn't dare to stay any longer, for fear that he would make a mistake on impulse.
However, that night, when he was lying in bed, enduring the severe pain in his knee.
The drawer was coded over and over again, flashing before my eyes like a movie scene.
He finally couldn't bear it anymore, cursed hard, got up in a hurry and went out.
"I didn't want to either, it's all because these bastards forced me to do it!"
After a while, he drove to the FDA headquarters building. It was pitch dark, suitable for his actions.
With his authority, he quickly found the internal storage room of the Criminal Investigation Office and rummaged through it with his mobile phone flashlight on.
Finally he found the familiar drawer, and when he opened it, what appeared in front of him was the painkillers he had dreamed of.
A powerful, non-addictive painkiller.
Sanqing pain reliever!
He looked greedily at the drawer full of painkillers and almost drooled.
After only thinking for three seconds, he decisively picked up the painkillers and put them in his pocket.
Box after box came, and it was quickly filled.
He didn't take any more, simply sorted out the medicines in the drawer, then turned and left.
When I got home, I opened a box of painkillers with excitement.
One pill, half a glass of water, drink it.
After a while, I felt the pain in my knee disappear.
I got up and walked a few steps, and it didn't hurt at all.
"Amazing! It's amazing! No wonder the sales are banned."
Davis screamed in his heart, closed his eyes in pain, and shed a tear.
"God, forgive me my sins."
"Poor me, my ex went to jail for backroom dealing, at least he got money."
"As for me, I actually committed suicide just to get a painkiller, and I lost my life at night."
"I must be the most pitiful director in the history of the FDA."
"My predecessors held great power and took over pharmaceutical companies, but I secretly stole confiscated illegal drugs in the middle of the night for a painkiller."
His physical pain disappeared, but he began to suffer from mental pain again.
However, I spent half the night going back and forth to get medicine, and I hadn't slept well before, so I was really tired.
So it didn't take long for him to get rid of the pain in his knees and quickly fell into a deep sleep.
It seemed that he had released some long-held emotions in his heart, or that he was letting go of his baggage and letting go.
All in all, he slept very soundly that night.
The next day I woke up feeling refreshed and still felt no pain in my knees.
"It's simply wonderful! Why can't Pfizer, those rubbish, make such a good drug!"
After Davis insults pharmaceutical companies, he drives to work in high spirits.
He walked into the headquarters building, looked at the staff coming towards him, and showed a smile.
The staff member opposite trembled all over, forced out a smile that was uglier than crying, and greeted in a trembling voice: "Director, good morning...good morning."
Davis patted the other person's shoulder amiably, and his hearty laughter echoed in the corridor.
"Dear Tom, you look great today. I remember you and hope you do a great job too."
Tom was crying and didn't dare to move: "Oh, thank you boss, it's my honor."
Davis nodded with satisfaction and strode towards his office.
The people behind him were whispering and speculating on what happened, which turned the director from an irritable devil to a kind angel overnight.
****
At the same time, in China, a large number of overseas patients came for treatment.
They showed up at major hospitals in first-tier cities with curious faces, were hospitalized for a period of time, and then flew back after their condition improved.
Major hospitals make a lot of money from these overseas patients.
The insurance company pays for the treatment of patients in Yingguo, and the money is very generous. They want the best in everything, and the treatment plan has been prepared in advance. The hospital does not need to worry too much, and they can also communicate with overseas colleagues. The treatment experience is simply wonderful.
The insurance company in Eagle Country is also very satisfied, because the medical expenses in China are much lower than those in Eagle Country. Even if they cover the patient's round-trip air tickets, they have significantly reduced the cost.
The patients are also very satisfied. They all have good financial conditions and pay more attention to the treatment experience. After taking the painkillers, the pain is greatly reduced, which is much more comfortable than being treated in Eagle Country. Besides, they can travel in China during the treatment.
All three parties can be said to have won.
Wei Kang didn't know what was happening in Huaxia Hospital.
He even didn't know that Director Davis of the FDA was suffering from Sanqing painkillers.
All he knew was that sales of Sanqing painkillers had been growing rapidly.
The painkillers sold so well that Sanqing Pharmaceutical's production lines became very busy.
Domestic pharmaceutical sales companies are now calling constantly, hoping to deliver goods to them in advance.
No one expected that a painkiller that was simply announced online would sell so well.
Some of the painkillers they had previously sold as agents, especially opioids, were almost unsaleable.
After the launch of Sanqing painkillers, the most affected ones are these opioid painkillers, that is, those addictive neuronarcotic painkillers.
Many people have a certain fear of this type of drugs, especially under the domestic regulatory environment.
There was nothing I could do before, because when the pain arose, I couldn't bear it without this kind of painkillers.
Now with Sanqing painkillers, all problems are solved.
Many doctors were cautious at first. After all, Sanqing's painkillers had just been launched and were still in phase four clinical trials. They were also worried about unknown side effects.
But at least judging from the current clinical data, taking it in small amounts for a short period of time has no adverse reactions or addiction, and it can be used for a wide range of symptoms and can adapt to almost all kinds of pain.
Sales in the domestic market are even better than abroad.
Because in China, Sanqing has established the brand image of a national enterprise.
Wei Kang has also become a new generation idol of young people.
Although his status is not as high as that of Mr. Yuan and others, the gap is not too big.
One is to solve hunger, the other is to solve diseases, both are very respected.
Wei Kang's fan team is getting bigger and bigger, and they are becoming more and more loyal.
They all appealed online and left messages on Wei Kang's homepage, hoping that he could develop more and better specific drugs.
There is even a list of current diseases that urgently need to be addressed.
I hope Sanqing can develop special medicine for itself as soon as possible.
Wei Kang was shocked when he saw these messages, laughing and shaking his head.
Does this make him a jingle cat?
Or a Bodhisattva who makes a wish?
How can specific drugs be so easy to develop?
Although he has a system, he doesn't always get whatever medicine he wants.
And some netizens’ suggestions are outrageous.
What kind of gene enhancement potion, what kind of elixir of life, what kind of drug that transforms people into non-human beings.
Listen to these words, is this a drug he can handle right now?
However, the list of diseases for which specific drugs are currently in urgent need is still interesting.
It may be possible to develop new drugs in this direction in the future.
After all, Sanqing's goal in developing new drugs is to meet social needs, that is, to meet the needs of patients.
Wei Kang looked at the list thoughtfully.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.
Looking up, Wen Renlong's figure appeared at the door of the office.
He walked in with a stack of documents in his arms and a proud expression on his face, as if he was asking for credit.
"Boss, the clinical trials of male contraceptive pills are going very well, and it has now entered the third clinical phase."
"No, this is the report of the previous clinical phase I and phase II trials. Please check it out."
Wei Kang was immediately surprised. The clinical trials of this male contraceptive pill in China have not been very smooth.
After all, in China's cultural environment, there are still relatively few domestic men who have this need.
Generally, women take more contraceptive pills, while men don't take too much initiative in this regard.
Chinese men’s desire for offspring and sense of family responsibility are also among the best in the world.
Unless they are too young and their conditions are too poor, most men will take responsibility after their girlfriends become pregnant.
Even a prodigal in love often does things like marry his son.
Therefore, he was previously worried that no one would buy it if it was launched domestically, and he planned to focus on overseas markets.
After all, foreign men are famous for their free and irresponsible love style.
This male contraceptive pill should be very suitable for them and can greatly satisfy their need not to pay alimony.
Therefore, during the first phase of clinical trials, Sanqing spent a lot of money to recruit dozens of drug testers.
The second clinical phase required more people, about two to three hundred people, but as a result, there was never enough people.
As a result, the clinical progress of this new drug has been delayed.
Unexpectedly, it suddenly progressed by leaps and bounds, completed the second phase of clinical trials, and fast forwarded to the third phase of clinical trials?
He was confused in his heart, but his face remained calm. He took the clinical trial data and looked at it carefully.
