At eight o'clock in the morning, Wei Kang walked into the office, opened the window, felt the fresh and pleasant air, and instantly felt refreshed.
The computer has automatically turned on and is quietly logging into the network.
In fifteen minutes, this industry conference that will have a major impact on the world is about to begin.
Attendees are all CEOs of the world's top ten multinational pharmaceutical companies, such as Pfizer, Novartis, Roche, Bayer, Merck, GSK, Gilead, etc.
It can be said that they are all giants who will cause a huge shock in the industry if they just stamp their feet.
Basically covers all the top original drug manufacturers in Europa and Eagle Country.
He was the host, and Sanqing was the only Chinese pharmaceutical company present.
Wei Kang took a deep breath. Unknowingly, he had reached this point.
Not only has it become a leader in pharmaceutical companies in China, but also in the entire East Asia.
The strength is so strong that it can even resist the ten giants on its own.
If he were not in the game, but just a passerby, he might not be able to help but take a breath and spit out the words "so scary".
"Mr. Wei, there are five minutes left and the meeting is about to start."
Anmei's reminder sounded at the right time.
Wei Kang sat in front of the computer and saw that all participants had logged in.
In the small squares on the screen, strange Western faces, both male and female, were looking at the camera with solemn expressions.
Good guy, we've all arrived early and are waiting for him to start, Wei Kang thought to himself.
At this time, it was eight or nine o'clock in the evening in Eagle Country, while it was already past 12 o'clock in the morning in Europa.
It’s not that Wei Kang had to choose such a weird time, the main reason is that it’s difficult to coordinate the time zone issue and get an answer that satisfies all three parties.
Therefore, as the host, Wei Kang could only prioritize meeting his own needs and choose a time that was more convenient for him.
Others can only accommodate themselves, because these people all want something from him.
Fortunately, these presidents all have rich experience in working across time zones, and all of them were fully prepared and attended on time.
When the time was up, the camera and microphone were turned on, and Wei Kang's face appeared in the center of the screen on time.
Everyone's faces were instantly filled with smiles, and they smiled and nodded to him as a sign of goodwill.
Wei Kang responded with a smile and announced the start of the meeting.
"Thank you all for coming to this meeting. Without further ado, let me first introduce HIV gene drugs in detail..."
"As we all know, there are more than 30 million AIDS patients in the world, and one-third of them are in Europe, Eagle Country, Asia, Latin America and other places."
"The plans to end AIDS in various countries are being implemented steadily, and the progress is gratifying, and this new drug from Sanqing will undoubtedly fill the final bullet."
"Unfortunately, Sanqing only has one biopharmaceutical factory with limited production capacity. It can only supply China within a short period of time and cannot cover all parts of the world."
"Recombinant genetic viruses not only have extremely high technical thresholds for production, but also require a cold chain for transportation and storage. The conditions are quite harsh. Sanqing does not yet meet the requirements in this regard, so it can only look for qualified ones on a global scale. A strong and sincere collaborator.”
"There won't be too many collaborators, probably about 3-5, mainly responsible for markets outside China. I hope everyone can cooperate sincerely and establish long-term friendship."
…
"Eradicating AIDS requires the whole world to unite and work together. It is impossible to achieve this great goal only by relying on the three clean-ups and one family, which is only a small amount of money."
"Please believe me, Sanqing comes with a win-win attitude. We are willing to be the one who shares the cake and make the pharmaceutical industry bigger and stronger, rather than being the one who smashes the dishes."
"Everyone, what do you think?"
After saying this, Wei Kang looked at everyone and waited for them to speak.
He sighed secretly in his heart. Unfortunately, most AIDS patients are abroad and are really out of reach.
Moreover, this is a public health issue, and all prevention and treatment work is in the hands of national governments. It is completely different from diseases such as cancer and Alzheimer's disease, which are treated at their own expense.
If you want to make money from foreign HIV-infected people, you can't get around these local snakes.
Moreover, the production of biological agents is more complex than chemical pharmaceuticals and has a higher technical threshold.
This is not a rare disease that affects only tens of thousands of people worldwide. AIDS is a mass infectious disease.
Even if there are one million patients in the country, if everyone needs to use the medicine within a year, the production will still be 90,000 doses a month.
Not to mention the tens of millions of overseas patients, if Sanqing relies solely on its own production, it may not lead to a ten-year war of resistance.
This greatly goes against his original intention of developing this drug.
And people all over the world certainly can’t wait.
He must make good use of the production capacity and technical personnel of these multinational giants, as well as the intricate relationships behind them.
Fortunately, this is a one-time cooperation. If we eliminate AIDS together with these giants, it will be over, and there will be no further relationship.
The first person to speak was Pfizer CEO Albert, who emphasized his old friendship with Sanqing from the very beginning.
I saw a smile on his face, he smiled so hard that his teeth couldn't even see his eyes, and he said in a flattering tone.
"Pfizer and Sanqing have had a deep friendship for five years starting from anti-cancer drugs. It has been very smooth and has become a strategic partner. This time, we will definitely show the greatest sincerity and become Mr. Wei's best friend."
Everyone else's expressions darkened. With Pfizer's statement, it would be unrealistic to unite to lower prices.
At present, some pharmaceutical companies that have little market for anti-AIDS drugs are vaguely thinking of retreating.
Oscar and Emma looked at each other and quickly had a tacit understanding.
As the undisputed kings in the field of anti-AIDS drugs, GSK and Gilead were about to be killed by Sanqing's new drugs, but now they have this opportunity, which can be said to be a return to the past.
As long as the two of them grab the cooperation quota, they will have a buffer period, and they can smoothly transition to other directions while maintaining their market share.
With a hint of respect in his confidence, Oscar said with a smile: "Mr. Wei, Gilead currently occupies more than 60% of the anti-AIDS drug market. It has unique technology accumulation in the anti-viral field and has 6 genetic engineering pharmaceutical companies in the world. Factory, 3 biological R&D centers, have absolutely strong strength in the technical support and production of biopharmaceuticals."
"There are specialized pharmaceutical companies, such as Johnson & Johnson and Bayer, which are very good pharmaceutical companies." His unruly eyes scanned the other CEOs one by one, but when he looked at Wei Kang, he instantly became as docile as a puppy.
…
"But compared with Gilead, they still have a big gap in the field of anti-AIDS drugs. I believe Mr. Wei must understand this."
"If we are lucky enough to become the authorized partner of Sanqing, we will definitely be able to sell HIV gene drugs to all parts of the world as soon as possible without sparing any patient."
"At the same time, we are also very experienced in price negotiations with various countries. As we all know, we also developed antiviral drugs for hepatitis C, which is also an infectious disease very similar to AIDS. The situation at that time was very similar to now, but We did it, sold the drug all over the world, and completely cured hepatitis C patients in the West."
He kept a very low profile and showed off all his advantages as soon as he came up. He acted like I was very strong and capable, indicating that he would never suffer a loss if he approached me.
Wei Kang couldn't help but nod. Gilead's experience in eradicating hepatitis C seems to be very useful in eradicating AIDS.
Moreover, this company has a strong background and is inextricably linked to the major virus laboratories in Eagle Country.
GSK President Emma also quickly spoke and expressed her strong willingness to cooperate.
Wei Kang is also relatively satisfied with this pharmaceutical company representing Europa, which has rich experience and a broad market in the field of anti-AIDS.
Okay, just these three companies, Europa will give to GSK, Eagle Country will give to Gilead, and Third World will give to Pfizer.
He secretly made a distinction in his mind and gave Pfizer the third world. In addition to the strong background of the other party, it was also related to Pfizer's corporate philosophy.
Unlike Sanqing, Pfizer is a profit-only pharmaceutical company, and the only criterion for measuring everything is Lilan.
This principle is clearly engraved in the corporate spirit and written in the company's articles of association.
If Pfizer did this domestically, it would definitely have a bad reputation, but overseas, it would be fine at all, and it would even become a favorite among capital.
It is quite easy to use to make money in other areas.
For example, selling anti-cancer drugs at high prices is Pfizer's specialty, and of course Gilead is not bad in this regard either.
Although Sanqing has the reputation of selling drugs at high prices overseas, to be honest, the bottom line is still much higher than that of these foreign capitalists.
For many drugs, such as painkillers, health care drugs, and even some genetic drugs for rare diseases, the prices Sanqing sells are not as exaggerated as the prices of anti-cancer drugs licensed to Pfizer.
After all, it is a dragon that crosses the river, and its foundation is limited. It cannot suck marrow and knock bones like a local snake, and do everything possible.
Therefore, when thinking of licensing cooperation, Wei Kang immediately thought of Pfizer.
Since we want to make money by selling medicines overseas, how can we do it if we don’t find an excellent capitalist to cooperate?
The meeting continued, and anyone with a discerning eye could see it.
Authorization cooperation will inevitably fall to these three companies.
Others' bids also grew listless.
Sure enough, the meeting came to an end and Wei Kang announced the results.
Sanqing will reach strategic cooperation with Pfizer, Gilead and GSK, authorizing these three companies to produce and sell HIV gene drugs outside China.
These three companies will be responsible for a series of follow-up expenses such as overseas clinical expenses, marketing and promotion expenses, production and transportation of new drugs.
As for the payment methods, all three are the same.
An upfront payment of US$1 billion, cumulative development and commercial milestone payments of up to US$2 billion, and a share of future sales in licensed territories.
…
This is also a common licensing cooperation solution between multinational pharmaceutical companies.
Milestones mainly refer to the stages such as the beginning and end of clinical trials, and the marketing of new drugs. Such staged payment terms are mainly to prevent the drug from dying midway and to avoid the buyer being harmed because the drug has not passed clinical trials and cannot be marketed.
Of course, this is not a problem for Sanqing.
After the cooperation was concluded, all parties were very satisfied and laughed happily.
The few remaining pharmaceutical companies were not too discouraged. Anyway, they knew very well that they were here to accompany them this time, but next time, if they switch to the pharmaceutical field they are good at, that may not necessarily be the case.
The attitude shown by Sanqing this time has made all major pharmaceutical companies see the hope of sincere cooperation.
Unknowingly, Sanqing has become an industry leader in this global AIDS end plan by virtue of its authorized cooperation.
Soon, the CEOs of the three companies made a special trip to China to sign a licensing contract.
Not long after, Wei Kang met with Director Han again and agreed on the implementation plan of HIV gene medicine.
First conduct phase III clinical trials, and wait until the AIDS patients who participate can fully recover, and there will be more successful cases.
It will be treated in batches for a large number of patients after it is launched.
Because the technology is too advanced, it can only be produced at the factory in Sanqing. The production capacity is limited, so we must take our time and strive to give all patients the new drug within 3-6 months.
During this period of time, the patient should be given Ai Ling to cut off the chain of infection. In this way, not only can the disease be cured, but the number of infected people will not expand.
Fortunately, the patient can be cured by just giving the patient an injection and then just keep observing.
Therefore, the workload is not very large, and overall, the number of existing patients is a process of continuous reduction.
In this case, no more than one year at the latest.
All HIV-infected people in China can get a shot, and the country will be free of AIDS.
In the short term, as long as we control the entry and exit points and prevent AIDS patients from entering easily, the domestic AIDS epidemic will not recur.
In the long term, it is natural to wait until the whole world, at least in the West, has eradicated AIDS to ensure that it will not be reinfected in the future and achieve complete success.
****
Eagle Country, DC City.
After Oscar and Albert returned home, they were immediately called over by Javier.
The three of them chatted for a long time and finally reached a consensus.
Eagle Nation’s AIDS End Plan will also be upgraded to version 2.0.
Domestic AIDS patients can use Sanqing's HIV gene medicine, but because it is relatively expensive, naturally it cannot be free for all.
Genetic medicines can only be purchased at self-pay or through medical insurance, and the free medicines given away are only for Ailin and Bituvit.
If an HIV-infected person has no money, he will have to take free medicine for a long time, or if he is lucky, a charity will donate money to pay for his genetic medicine.
Rich celebrities and even high-net-worth middle-class people can immediately purchase genetic drugs at their own expense.
Of course, the reason claimed by the Ministry of Health is definitely the insufficient production capacity of biological agents.
At the same time, Javier promised that this is only temporary. When the pharmaceutical companies increase their production, more allocations and donations will be made, and genetic medicines will be spread to poor people who take free medicines.
…
If things go on like this, the stubborn disease of AIDS will definitely be eradicated within a few years.
As soon as the news came out, the people of Eagle Country instantly cheered and received good reviews.
Rich patients were completely cured of AIDS, and poor patients also received free drugs with better efficacy.
Havel has made outstanding achievements, pharmaceutical companies have made huge profits, and the government has won the support of the people.
All parties are happy.
The same situation occurs in European countries and around the world.
Pfizer is worthy of being the number one pharmaceutical company in the world, with a network of relationships all over the world. Even the Sakura Country, which has always been closed to the market, has its tentacles deep into it.
Gilead took away the anti-AIDS drug market in Eagle Country, while Pfizer gained access to other countries besides Europa.
There are also many rich countries among them, such as Desert Country, Stick Country, Cherry Blossom Country, Maple Leaf Country, Kangaroo Country, etc.
Although there are few AIDS patients in these countries, the disease is contagious and can be eradicated at once. Naturally, all countries will spare no effort, even if they undergo extensive bloodletting, they will eradicate this damn HIV virus.
Other countries have also come up with their own treatment plans after urgent discussions.
AIDS, a malignant infectious disease, seriously endangers public safety. As long as it can be eliminated, no country is willing to do its best.
Even the country of Tianzhu, due to the severe price reduction of Duan Ailing, reluctantly bought a large number of them and provided them to the domestic people.
As for the genetic medicine, they can only come in batches first, and let the capable ones be treated first.
At this moment, the whole world is united in wanting to eradicate AIDS.
However, in this vast plan to end AIDS, the Philippines has been completely forgotten.
After losing the donations from donors, it is very difficult for Philippine countries to control the increase in HIV infections and maintain the status quo.
They fully interpret the saying "There is only one disease, and that is the disease of poverty."
Some rich people are lucky enough to go to Eagle Country for treatment, but poor people in the Philippines can only take free generic drugs.
These generic drugs have serious side effects and are the kind that no one would want to take if they are given away.
In the past, the WHO had to pay for them, but now the prices of original drugs have been greatly reduced, and the prices of these generic drugs have also become particularly low.
As if they wanted no money, pharmaceutical companies sent generic anti-AIDS drugs that had been abandoned by rich countries to the Philippines before they expired in exchange for charitable subsidies.
AIDS patients around the world are quickly divided into three classes.
On the first level, the Chinese people, the overseas rich and the middle class, received the Sanqing genetic medicine, cured AIDS, and completely recovered their health.
On the second level, poor people in rich countries receive free antiviral drugs. If they take the drugs for a long time, they can keep the virus in their bodies undetectable and live like healthy people.
On the third level, people in poor countries can only take charity donated drugs that have been eliminated by rich countries, low-end generic drugs with various adverse reactions. Although they are very painful, they maintain life and will not die soon.
The classes in this world have never been so clear.
The veil of tenderness in the past was completely torn off in the face of money and life.
