I am a small factory doctor re-walking my life.

Chapter 96 Rescue
"There's no way, I've spent so much money, and I don't know how much more it will cost, or how much time it will take. It's normal to call a halt when no benefits are seen yet."

Is it normal?Not normal at all.

Li Tang was short-sighted by some people. After receiving the news, he started to curse and even broke a cup.

Don't blame him for being angry. In fact, more than two years of hard work were not in vain. Combining his own memory, he has compiled a formula that can inhibit the spread of cancer cells.

Although this prescription cannot completely cure cancer, if it can really inhibit the continued spread of cancer cells, this will be a great improvement.

However, because the number of patients is limited, the data they obtained is actually very vague. Next, a large number of clinical trials are needed, which means a large amount of money investment is required.

But, there is no more but.

"Xiao Li, if you continue to invest in the recipe you came up with, when will it bear fruit?"

"Uncle Wang, no one can guarantee this time. There are too many changes, such as..."

Drug research and development is inherently high-investment and high-return, but it is also a high-risk industry because no one can guarantee that a new drug will be developed.

Just like that company in the United States, which invested heavily in the research and development of a heart disease drug, and finally came up with the famous little blue pill, and then started a 30-year global harvest, making a lot of money. The bowl is full.

But what if that research and development fails?On the surface, it seems that all the initial investment was in vain and time was wasted, but is this really the case?Failure is real, but so are the experiences accumulated and the talents cultivated.

Li Tang remembered that in his previous life, he had read a report in the early 21st century. It said that a large pharmaceutical company in the United States spent a year on drug research and development, which was basically [-]% of the company's annual sales. , note that this is sales, not [-]% of profits.

Basically, the annual R&D funds invested by several well-known large pharmaceutical companies are between US$[-] million and US$[-] million.

What about domestically?Also at the beginning of the 21st century, the total output value of the pharmaceutical market was basically hundreds of billions of dollars. How much did domestic pharmaceutical companies invest?One percent of production value.

In other words, the total amount of money invested by pharmaceutical companies across the country in drug research and development is about the same as that invested by a pharmaceutical company in the United States. It may even be worse. How does this compare?It would be strange if your market is not harvested by others.

And then the common people still take some high-priced medicines, and the more targeted the medicine is to treat a certain disease, the more expensive it is. There is no other way, people have to earn back the research and development funds, right?
After listening, Director Wang nodded. Before he could say anything else, Li Tang continued: "Uncle Wang, that recipe... It's not impossible even if I contribute it, but..."

When cooperating with foreign companies, according to what the negotiators from the foreign companies said, the holders of the prescriptions can take shares based on technology. Li Tang did not have that idea. This joint venture to be established has a total of four shareholders, one of which is foreign capital, and the remaining All three are Chinese companies, ranging from the provincial level to the national level, and the ingredients are too complex.

Even if he could get involved, he would probably only get a pitiful few shares, and maybe only the right to dividends, which is really not interesting.

Through this joint research and development of anti-cancer drugs, Li Tang also recognized the reality that he must have the absolute say in what he does in the future, otherwise he would rather not do it to save time.

But if you can really make your own decisions, it can only be your own company. In this case, there will be problems in the future, that is, when it comes to clinical trials, hospitals will need to cooperate, and a large number of hospitals will cooperate. A private company wants to You need a large number of hospitals and doctors across the country to cooperate with you in conducting clinical trials, recommend your medicine to patients, or persuade certain patients to cooperate in clinical trials. Haha, you are overthinking it.

If it doesn't benefit the hospital, no one will do it. If it does, you, a private company, are waiting to be reported.

So he himself was a little confused as to how to go next.Director Wang listened to what Li Tang had not finished and understood what it meant. He could take it out for free, but it must be beneficial.

This gave him a bit of a dilemma. What kind of benefits should be given?

promoted?But you're not even 25 years old?

Promote his father?Then it's not his turn to make the decision. He really can't control other people's fertilizer plants.

What's more important is that Li Tang's father is now the director of the fertilizer factory and a bureau-level cadre. It is really not something he can handle if he is promoted to the next level. He needs to go to meetings.

That's right, at the beginning of this year, Director Du was promoted to the ministry and became the director of a certain department. Dad Li successfully took over and became the top leader of Qinshan Fertilizer Factory.

Factory Director Du's idea of ​​taking a step forward was shattered, but it would be okay if he could enter the ministry and serve as the director of the department with real power.

After thinking for a while, Director Wang turned his head and looked at the clock on the wall, and then said: "Xiao Li, I have an immature idea here, but it's too late now. I have a meeting coming soon, so how about it?" , we’ll talk about it at lunch, and I’ll invite Mr. Chen from the National Pharmaceutical Corporation over then, and we’ll talk together.”

???

Li Tang was a little confused after hearing this, but he still nodded and stood up to go out. At this moment, Yang Guangsheng, who specially served Director Wang and had been promoted to the director of the First Secretary Division, knocked on the door and walked in.

"Just in time, Guangsheng, you arrange a place for Li Tang to rest for a while, and he will have dinner with me at noon. Then you call Mr. Chen of the Pharmaceutical Corporation, which is now in the People's Building, and tell him that I will treat him to dinner at noon. Then you can arrange a car to pick her up."

"Okay director, Doctor Li, come with me."

Having known each other for more than two years, Yang Guangsheng certainly knew the young man's status in the leader's heart and was very polite to him.

Li Tang now not only saved the old man of the Wang family, Director Wang suffered a cerebral hemorrhage during the Chinese New Year this year. If he hadn't happened to come over to pay New Year's greetings that day, there is no guarantee that Director Wang would still be here, even if he could be rescued by the hospital. , but it is impossible to recover without getting sick.

It can be said that Li Tang not only saved his life, but also extended his political life. This kindness is not insignificant.

From Yang Guangsheng's point of view, this is equivalent to saving his political life, and such a powerful doctor can never go wrong if the relationship is well established, and he may be able to use him one day.

"Okay, Uncle Wang, I'll go there first."

"Um"

"Excuse me, Director Yang."
