After putting down the phone, the staff immediately reported the situation to Su Wenquan, the deputy chief of the technical section. Old Su had always been estranged from Fang Hanmin. He was indifferent to all matters led by Fang Hanmin. In addition, due to the last job adjustment, Fang Hanmin put Wan Cheng When Lao Su was transferred to be the head of the technical department, he became even more resentful towards Fang Hanmin. From then on, he fell into disarray and did not focus on his work at all.
After listening to the attendance officer's report, Su Wenquan didn't even raise his head and said very coldly: "You don't need to tell me about this kind of thing, you can just take care of it."
The attendance officer had no choice but to call the hotel where Wan Cheng and others were staying. After finding Wan Cheng, he told him to go to the Provincial Medical Administration Bureau to interview Director Lin of the Registration and Regulations Department.
When Wan Cheng met with Director Lin, his original happy mood soon became a little disappointed, because from Director Lin's words, Wan Cheng felt that he was skeptical about the generic drug project developed by Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory. .
Although Wan Cheng was young, he had seen a lot of things in the world with Fang Hanmin in the past few years. After knowing what Director Lin meant, he said without being humble or condescending: "Director Lin, do you think that Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory is not well-known and is not a national industry?" Qiaochu, can’t you develop this kind of product?”
"Chief Wan, don't think so!" Lao Lin felt that what he just said had been tactful enough, but he didn't expect that it still made the other party worry too much, so he hurriedly explained: "What I mean is that it is very difficult to synthesize this kind of drug. How did you do it?"
Although he didn't mean to look down on Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory subjectively, Wan Cheng still felt that Director Lin's words sounded uncomfortable, so he spread his hands and looked helpless, "Director Lin, I am neither the project leader nor the person in charge of the project." I personally participated in the imitation test, so I can’t explain it to you!”
Director Lin is a typical technocrat. His code of conduct is to seek truth from facts. Although he will not look down on anyone in any unit for no reason, he does want to know more facts to prove that his doubts are completely unnecessary. After all, the previous The counterfeit drug incident in 2016 provided a profound lesson. As a gatekeeper of the regulatory authorities, he had to be extra cautious when it came to companies’ registration applications. “Chief Vanke, are any of the two colleagues accompanying you specifically engaged in project development?”
"Those two are colleagues from our technical department, and the three of us are all managers," Wan Cheng thought for a while, "Director Lin, if you want to know the technical details, you can take the time to go to the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory for an on-site inspection!"
Lao Lin was very interested in Wan Cheng's proposal, but he was also a little hesitant, "Going to your unit for on-site inspection? This is a good idea, but our department does not deal with production companies, so under what name should I go to your place for inspection?"
Wan Cheng slapped his thigh, "This is not easy! I will go back to the work unit and report to the factory director and ask the factory to come forward to invite you. All your expenses will be borne by our factory. You can ask the leaders of the Food and Drug Administration for instructions. He said that Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory encountered some difficulties in the details of its generic drug registration application and asked you to go to the company for guidance. This can also be regarded as the support of the regulatory authorities to the company, and I don’t think the leaders will object.”
Director Lin nodded. He felt that the company's staff were flexible and could always come up with solutions to problems.
...
Back at the factory, Wan Cheng immediately reported the concerns of Director Lin of the Provincial Food and Drug Administration to Fang Hanmin, "This man understands technology. He doesn't seem to believe that Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory can develop this product, but judging from the filing materials, I couldn’t find any faults, so I wanted to do an on-site inspection of the development process.”
"Then invite him to the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory to see for himself!" Fang Hanmin seemed very calm because the solid test process and results were right there.
"I thought so too. After he saw our test process and results, his doubts were naturally dispelled. Director Fang, how about you personally call Director Lin to invite me?"
Two days later, Director Lin received a personal call from Fang Hanmin, the director of the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory, inviting him to the factory to guide work.
After putting down the phone, Director Lin did not want to go on an on-site inspection, because he felt that the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory dared to invite him for an inspection, which meant that the other party must have a solid experimental basis for developing this drug and did not commit fraud. In this case, his previous I may have thought too much about it, but if I actually go to see it on the spot, it seems unnecessary.
However, after graduating from university, Lao Lin has been engaged in drug synthesis research for more than 20 years and has made considerable achievements in this field. Although he is now in a management position in the regulatory department, he is incredible that Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory can take the lead in developing this drug. After being curious Driven by his heart, Lao Lin finally decided to go to the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory in person to see how strong their technical strength was.
That afternoon, Wan Cheng received a call from Director Lin, saying that he was going to take the train at 7 o'clock the next morning and arrive at Shuangling Railway Station at about 12 noon.
After notifying Fang Hanmin of the situation, Wan Cheng suggested that the technology center make some preparations. Fang Hanmin said nonchalantly: "No preparation is needed. The research team of the technology center is conducting experiments normally. Director Lin does not want to see our experimental process." Really? Then let him see enough!"
"Director Fang, it is said that Director Lin graduated from a top domestic university in organic synthesis in the mid-1960s. After graduation, he engaged in synthesis research at an institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences for twenty years. He is very accomplished in the field of drug synthesis. If he does not Be fully prepared. Once he discovers a problem, will it have an impact on the registration of generic drugs?"
Although Wan Cheng's reminder was not unreasonable, Fang Hanmin seemed confident, "Don't worry, I am very confident in our test process and test results. At noon, you go to the train station to pick up Director Lin and have lunch with him. I will receive him personally in the afternoon." he."
At around 12 noon, after receiving Director Lin at the train station, Wan Cheng arranged for Lao Lin to stay at a four-star hotel in Shuangling City and have lunch in the hotel's catering department.
After an hour's lunch break, Wan Cheng took Director Lin to the factory. As soon as he sat down in the reception room, Fang Hanmin walked in. Wan Cheng introduced the two of them to each other. Lao Lin held Fang Hanmin's hand and said in surprise: " Director Fang, I didn’t expect you to be so young!”
"Director Lin, welcome to Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory to guide work! Yes, I am the youngest among the heads of dozens of companies affiliated to Shuangling City Industrial Bureau."
"Young and promising, you have a bright future!"
Fang Hanmin seemed very modest, "It can't be said to be promising. Young people lack experience. In the future, we have to learn more from leaders and old comrades."
The staff put the newly brewed Biluochun on the coffee table in front of Director Lin, and also brought two plates of fresh fruit.
The two chatted for a while and learned that Lao Lin would return to the provincial capital tomorrow afternoon. Fang Hanmin consulted: "Director Lin, I heard from Chief Wanke that you are an expert in drug synthesis. I would like to ask you to give us some advice on our experimental work." Guidance and put forward valuable opinions on the preliminary test process. I have been on the train all morning today and am quite tired. In the afternoon, please check the preliminary test records here and help us see if there are any problems. I will go to the laboratory to guide the work tomorrow morning. what do you think?"
"As you wish, you will follow the instructions of the factory director, except for the guidance. This time I came to the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory mainly to inspect the company's technology development activities on the spot and learn from you."
Fang Hanmin asked the staff of the technology center to bring more than ten thick test records and put them on another coffee table in the reception room. "Director Lin, this is the technical development test record of generic drugs. The test process from the beginning to the present is The detailed record is here, please check it, Director Wanke and I will come with you after get off work."
After Fang Hanmin and Wan Cheng left, Director Lin came to another coffee table with a tea cup and found that the test records in front of him were neat in appearance, with consecutive dates, and clearly visible labels on the covers. The first impression it gave him was at least clear. Laboratory work records are serious.
The first book was a record of the initial stage of generic drug trials. Lao Lin found that, except for the relevant data, which was slightly messy, all the necessary trial information was recorded.
The second test record is much better, perhaps because of the strengthening of laboratory management. Not only is the test information complete, but it is also recorded in detail, from which you can see the complete process of each batch of tests.
Since then, test records have become more and more standardized. Lao Lin has worked at an institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences for more than 20 years. He believes that even by the standards of an institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences where he once worked, these test records meet the requirements.
Although Director Lin has been engaged in pharmaceutical synthesis for many years, he is not familiar with the process technology of this generic drug from Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory. Therefore, he is mainly concerned about the standardization of the generic test. He also needs to check whether the test process is authentic and whether there is any data falsification. signs.
It took more than two hours for Director Lin to check from the first test record to the last one. At least from the test records, he found nothing suspicious.
After five o'clock in the evening, Wan Cheng took Director Lin to a luxury hotel in the city. Fang Hanmin wanted to greet him personally. Logically speaking, members of the factory leadership team should accompany him on such an occasion, but they were all older veterans. Chief engineer Lao Xia and others were not interested in the generic drug project, and the other deputy directors did not understand technology and had no common language with the guests. Fang Hanmin did not let them attend the banquet that night, but asked Wan Cheng and the technical center to The deputy director will accompany you.
After the guests and hosts met, Director Lin lamented that the younger leadership team of Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory was at the forefront of the industry in the province. Fang Hanmin explained: "These three are recently promoted middle-level cadres of Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory and are the main participants in the generic drug project. "In the factory-level leadership team, except for me, the others are all veteran comrades, because they have nothing to do with the generic drug project at work, do not understand the relevant situation, and are not interested in this topic, so I did not let them accompany me."
"This is the best!" Lao Lin is essentially a technology worker and very pragmatic. He hates wasting time sitting with irrelevant people.
At the wine table, Fang Hanmin, as the host, welcomed Director Lin to the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory for guidance and proposed a toast to Director Lin!
After three rounds of drinking, Director Lin spoke highly of the test records he reviewed in the afternoon, "Just from what I saw in the test records, I think the scientific and technical personnel at the Technology Center of Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory have extremely high scientific research literacy," he said. To be honest, I didn’t think about it at all before coming here!”
Fang Hanmin understood the other party's feelings, "In the outside world's impression, it is impossible for a little-known company like Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory to have its own R&D institution, let alone develop new products and technologies."
"I have to admit, that's what I thought originally." Director Lin said frankly, "Because based on my understanding of the same industry in the province and even the country, let alone an enterprise of the size of Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory, even if it is smaller than yours Much larger units generally do not pay attention to technology development and product upgrading. How could you think of setting up a technology center and attaching so much importance to technology development?"
