Transport planes took off from the airport, loaded with pesticides, and flew to different countries.

The global locust plague that has been raging for several months is about to enter a countdown.

Another benefit this locust plague brought to Sanqing was its popularity. For a while, the name Sanqing was known to everyone in third world countries.

Sanqing's drugs have always taken a high-end route overseas, mainly focusing on the market in Western countries, and also radiating to East Asian countries. It has not yet opened up markets in the Philippines and Central Asia, and its popularity is not high.

Generally, when Chinese people go abroad, they will bring Sanqing’s commonly used drugs in their medical bags.

Therefore, most Filipinos have only heard that Sanqing medicine is very useful from Chinese people, but they have never used it themselves and cannot afford it.

In addition, only some rich people from the Middle East have heard of the name Sanqing and experienced the miraculous curative effects of Sanqing medicine when they went to Eagle Country and Europa for medical treatment.

Now, when countries are purchasing Sanqing’s insecticides to eliminate the locust plague.

Whether in a small country in the Philippines or in poor countries like Pakistan and Persia, the name Sanqing has become the most mentioned name.

These countries saw the miraculous effects of Sanqing pesticides, and heard that this was just the most inconspicuous side business of Sanqing, and they suddenly became very curious.

And when they learned about Sanqing's achievements in medicine, they were even more stunned and shocked.

It turns out that such a magical pesticide is nothing to Sanqing.

Anti-cancer drugs, ad specific drugs, genetic drugs, which one is not more magical, more technological, and more capable of bringing the dead back to life than pesticides?

Everyone is subject to birth, old age, illness and death. Faced with a magical drug maker who has mastered the secrets of life, they feel longing for him.

The same thought flashed through the minds of these officials of the Philippine Alliance.

We must introduce the magical medicine of Sanqing!

Although the people in the Philippines are very poor, the upper class in various countries are still quite wealthy and can fully afford Sanqing's drugs.

What's more, the price of Sanqing drugs is considered a reasonable price compared with the sky-high price drugs of Yingguo Pharmaceutical Company.

As for the poor and poor, they have free medicines provided by charities such as the World Health Organization.

The WHO, the Global Fund, the Global League, and some international charities have always been keen to promote the humanitarian spirit in the Philippines and provide medicine to patients in dire straits.

They use their deep pockets to do this, buying drugs around the world and donating them to people in need for free.

For example, 70% of the purchase of antimalarial drugs in the Philippines comes from funds from international organizations and institutions. This is also a major feature of the Philippine pharmaceutical market.

In this regard, these international organizations are responsible. They want to use good medicine for the purpose of saving lives and healing the wounded.

So what medicine is a good medicine?

In the minds of Westerners, only drugs registered and marketed in Western countries can be considered good drugs, and they are truly conscience drugs.

However, these medicines have one characteristic: they are expensive, extremely expensive.

Such an expensive original drug is based on patient units with hundreds of millions of people. No matter how much money is spent, it will not be enough!

Since expensive medicines are unaffordable, generic medicines can only be used.

However, the profits of generic drugs are too low, and Western pharmaceutical companies are generally unwilling to do so. At the same time, they are also unwilling to lower drug prices.

After all, the ultimate goal of pharmaceutical companies is to make money. If they don’t make enough money, how can they have money for charity?

Since Western pharmaceutical companies are unwilling to produce generic drugs, this great task falls on third world countries, and the main ones with strength in this regard are Tianzhu and Huaxia.

The WHO has introduced a certification called PQ, using their experts to review purchased generic drugs.

Only when the safety, effectiveness and quality of drugs reach the level of Western original drugs can they be considered good and can be purchased and donated. If you can't achieve it, I'm sorry. No matter how awesome you are, I won't let you down.

PQ certification is very similar to drug registration, but there is one biggest difference: not all drugs are accepted by WHO.

They generally only accept drugs that are urgently needed by Yafila patients and have a high mortality rate.

Medications that are not on their demand list, no matter how effective they are, will not be accepted, let alone purchased.

In this regard, Tianzhu pharmaceutical companies have unique advantages. They have already deployed in the Philippines to expand the market. Tianzhu’s generic drug industry is also very developed. Therefore, Tianzhu people are everywhere in the entire pharmaceutical ecology of the Philippines and have formed a The whole industry layout has been established.

Taking Kenya as an example, most of the local pharmaceutical factories, pharmaceutical companies, importers, and distributors are controlled by Tianzhu people.

In the WHO's procurement list, Tianzhu's generic drugs also account for the majority, accounting for 65%, while China's only accounts for 8%.

Although China is also a major country of generic drugs and has exported to the Philippines for many years, and some pharmaceutical companies have even invested in and built factories locally, it has not yet formed an industry giant, so it lacks a strong brand advantage.

As a result, homogeneous off-brand generic drugs can easily fall into vicious price competition in the Philippines, leading to serious involution.

However, this situation is currently expected to be broken by the Sanqing.

Ethiopia, the headquarters center of the Philippine League.

Jemol led the officials of the Philippine Medical Bureau to express a warm welcome to the Sanqing team who came from afar.

The visitors this time were mainly Sun Chengren, supplemented by Gu Xian, and some other employees.

The main purpose of their trip is to explore the third world market and then set up branches in the Philippines and Central Asia.

Jemol signed a contract with Sun Chengren last time and the relationship was relatively familiar, so this time he came to introduce the two parties to each other.

After the two sides exchanged pleasantries, they quickly got down to business.

"We are very interested in Sanqing's original drugs. Anti-cancer drugs, analgesics, and Alzheimer's disease drugs are all major import targets. In addition, we learned that Sanqing is in the field of genetic drugs. The strength is among the best, but I wonder if there is a genetic drug to treat sickle cell anemia?"

At that moment, an official from the Ethiopian Ministry of Health asked.

Sickle cell anemia is a single-gene genetic disease that is highly prevalent in the Philippines and is mainly related to the local prevalence of malaria.

Sun Chengren smiled and said confidently: "Of course, we have developed several genetic drugs to treat single-gene genetic diseases. The research and development of genetic drugs for sickle cell anemia is in progress. I believe it will be available soon. Once it is launched, it will be exported to your country.”

Jemol felt excited. This genetic disease is very common in the Philippines, and its fatality rate is also very high. Only 14% of people can live to the age of 30, and even high-level dignitaries cannot avoid it.

His newborn son has this disease. If Sanqing can develop a genetic drug for the disease, he is willing to pay no matter how expensive it is.

"We have noticed that the original drugs of Sanqing are relatively expensive, but our country is relatively short of supplies. I wonder how much room there is for price reduction?"

Sun Chengren looked solemn, the main event was coming, but Wei Kang had already given instructions not to lower the price too much, so he was already prepared.

“These drugs are all newly developed, and the company is eager to recover costs. I’m afraid there won’t be much room for price reductions in a short period of time, and we also need to make money to develop other new drugs, such as genetic drugs for sickle cell anemia. Anyway..."

He had long noticed the other party's concern for genetic drugs, so he increased his chips in this regard. After some talk, the two parties reached an agreement on the price.

Original anti-cancer drugs have not dropped much, but these are not drugs for ordinary Filipinos. Only the rich and powerful in the Philippines can afford these prices.

Therefore, the other party is not too insistent in this regard. After all, corruption is serious in the Philippines, and officials in high positions are not short of money.

Moreover, they also hope that Sanqing will develop genetic medicine as soon as possible to save their relatives and friends suffering from sickle cell anemia.

Next is the generic drug business, which has a wide audience, and the price must be cut a lot to make it affordable for poor people.

"The drugs we need are mainly anti-malarial drugs, anti-AIDS drugs, antibiotics, etc. The generic drugs must be cheap enough and effective. Here is a list of the drugs we need..."

Gu Xian listened and nodded, and at the same time wrote down the list of generic drugs the other party needed in his notebook.

These drugs have long expired, so it is not difficult for Sanqing to imitate them.

The only problem is how to make it cheap enough while still making a certain profit.

At present, Sanqing's generic drugs are all produced by themselves and are of high quality, but the profits are slim. Many rare drugs are even sold at a loss, just to ensure that domestic patients have medicines available.

This can be maintained if the sales volume is not large. If the sales volume increases significantly and even exports are required, self-produced drugs will obviously not be able to meet the demand.

The Philippines has a population of more than one billion. This is a huge potential market with a huge demand for generic drugs.

It was clear that new solutions had to be found.

For example, outsourcing the production of generic drugs to domestic OEMs.

Gu Xian meditated while drawing on the paper.

On the clean white paper, the six characters 'Generic Drug Factory' were circled several times and marked heavily.
