Chapter 372 Fate and reality are the biggest villains
The realism theme emphasizes an authenticity and resonance.

Undoubtedly, it can be said that in this respect, compared with other movies, it is an advantage. Of course, the premise is that you can get the resonance point of the audience.

And "I'm Not the God of Medicine" really touched the "pain point" of society-high-priced drugs.

Just like the old patient in the movie said to Cao Bin: "Who doesn't have a patient yet? Can you guarantee that you will not get sick for the rest of your life?"

Birth, old age, sickness and death are the eternal topics around everyone's life, which is inevitable for everyone, so it is such a sensation.

Of course, the premise is that the movie is really well shot.

And undoubtedly "I'm Not the God of Medicine" did it.

Not only is it a hit at the box office, but it is also well-known.

In comparison, Li Zhanshan's "Flowers of War" in the same period is much worse.

In fact, both films aroused huge controversy after their release, but the points of controversy were completely different.

The controversy caused by "I'm Not the God of Medicine" is mainly aimed at the core contradictions of the film.

In the trial part of the movie, Cheng Yong said: "Is it reasonable for Glenin to set such a high price?"

For this reason, some people think with empathy: "Patients need medicine to save their lives. Why do regular pharmaceutical companies set the price as "sky-high"? It is because they are too greedy, they only want higher profits, and they don't care whether the patient lives or dies." !"

And some people think: "The reason why targeted drugs are so expensive that they cost tens of thousands of yuan is because what you can buy is already the second drug, and the price of the first drug is billions of dollars. And if Without the drive of profit, how can pharmaceutical companies be induced to invest huge amounts of money in research and development of new drugs? If there is no research and development of new drugs, then no matter how cheap it is, you will not be able to get it!"

The media have also reported on the current situation and prospects of Huaguo’s anti-cancer drug industry, including some related policies of Huaguo, such as reducing the tariffs on some imported anti-cancer drugs to zero and other favorable measures. As Cheng Yong said, I believe that the future will be More and more appointments, I hope this day can come sooner.

In response to such controversy, someone wrote an article titled: "Whose fault? "Review articles.

The content of the article does not analyze the plot or characters of the movie, but specifically focuses on the hot spots of controversy, whether the sky-high price of medicine is reasonable or not?
"After "I'm Not the God of Medicine" was released, many people lamented that the price of medicine was too high to force them into such a situation.

Then we must know one thing, that is why the pharmaceutical companies set high prices?
It is because pharmaceutical companies have research and development costs, production costs, and operating costs. Pharmaceutical companies must survive market competition, feed scientific researchers, purchase experimental consumables, and have funds and motivation to develop more drugs to treat more diseases. more people.

Medicines are not food, they can be sold with small profits but quick turnover. Medicines only have the only sales space for symptomatic patients. Pharmaceutical companies must face a limited number of people within the limited patent protection period to recover the high costs invested in the previous decades. The price of medicines also includes delivery. Tax money to the government.

A product can be launched on the market after it has passed the review of the enterprise market research and the government's price and quality inspection department. In other words, the drug price is a check and balance achieved by the tripartite game between consumers, enterprises, and regulatory authorities.At this point of balance, companies can make profits, the government can collect taxes, and consumers can't afford it.

So the question is, why do people think it is expensive?The author believes that the biggest reason is not because genuine pharmaceutical companies have increased their prices in pursuit of huge profits, but because the ultra-low prices of Asan pharmaceutical companies have broken the original market balance.

Huang Mao said that even if the medicine was sold for five thousand, some people still couldn't afford it.There will always be "poorer" people in the world, so where is the price cut?Therefore, no matter how much the original version is priced, even if its conscience explodes and it is willing to lose money, as long as someone dares to bid lower than it, consumers will always tend to choose a lower price.The genuine medicine sells for [-], and Cheng Yong sells it for [-] to compete with the genuine medicine.Cheng Yong sold five thousand, and Zhang Changlin dared to sell paracetamol plus flour for two thousand to compete with Cheng Yong.

We noticed that when Cheng Yong started selling medicines, he quoted [-] yuan, which is much lower than the [-] yuan for genuine medicines, but have the group owners complained less?I repeat, there will always be poorer people in the world, and as long as there is a price difference, consumers will definitely tend to choose the one with a lower price.

The old daughter-in-law Lu said that Zhang Changlin was arrested because he raised the price of medicine to [-] yuan, and no one was willing to protect him.But if you think about it carefully, since people used to take [-] yuan of medicine, is it true that no one can afford [-] yuan of medicine at all?Then why was Zhang Changlin reported?It's nothing more than in the eyes of those who can't accept the price difference of [-] to [-] yuan, if you don't let me take medicine, I can't let you have a good life.Why is it that I am the only one who can't afford it? Then everyone should stop eating it and die together.

Because the movie is made for the general public, the movie actually has a position, which is the public's position. I believe that people who have watched the movie will regard the character of Zhao Lizhong as a villain.Even though the movie doesn't express this directly, he seems to be on the opposite side of the patients.

But in the author's opinion, he is actually very innocent, but after the movie was released, he became a person who was scolded quite miserably.When the movie was shown and the demonstrations threw dung, there was a burst of applause in the theater.

However, let's put aside the movie and look at it objectively. As an employee of a pharmaceutical company, is there any problem with what he does?
Food for the king, loyalty to the king, he is dedicated and loyal as an employee, he receives the salary of other people's pharmaceutical factory, of course he has to be responsible for safeguarding the rights and interests of the company, otherwise he will be eating inside and outside.

Human nature is complicated, and many contradictions are actually a matter of position.Nothing in this world is really black and white. The image of good and bad is actually created. Everyone has their own helplessness.For the sake of dramatic conflict, the movie simply and rudely turns the medical representative into an unhuman, greedy, cold-blooded and bitter villain.The author can understand this point, but I don't agree with it. Let me ask you, if you want to study medicine and pharmacy, you will be beaten by medical riots, feces will be thrown by the crowd in the parade, and you will be deliberately vilified by movies and scolded by public opinion. Who would be willing to sell medicine and practice medicine when their dignity cannot be guaranteed?

To sum up, we will find that there is nothing wrong with the pharmaceutical factory, and neither are the employees of the pharmaceutical company; Adhere to procedural justice, and the police are right. If the police really dare to take the lead in supporting piracy, it would be bending the law for personal gain.Other patients are simpler and more pitiful. They just want to spend less money. They just want to live, even if it is a few more days.

Obviously everyone is right, everyone just wants to survive, but they have to fight wits and courage together, even to the death!

So whose fault is it?In the author's opinion, the bloody fate and reality are the biggest villains. "
