Chapter 255: Zhou Wen, do you have a girlfriend?

"Well, okay. ”

Xu Yuting agreed, but she had a headache in her heart.

Regarding the joint clinical trial, she had already talked to Zhang Jianfu, the new general manager of Uniworld Biotech.

But the other party was ambiguous and did not give a clear answer.

She knows where the reason is, whether it is technical reserves, talent reserves or relationship networks, Longkang Pharmaceutical is a big step behind some old CRO companies such as Yaoming KangDe, Tiger Pharmaceutical, and Kailaiin.

After all, they have been established for a relatively short time, and their development is lagging behind.

The only thing that Longkang Pharmaceutical is stronger than those old CRO companies is that she has some friendship with the boss behind Huanyu Biotech.

But the face of human affection is okay once or twice, but if there are more times, the favor will fade.

After the meeting, Xu Yuting came to the office and thought about it for a long time, and finally called Xu Shuangyu.

She knew very well that this was an opportunity.

If Ailishen can greatly improve Longkang Pharmaceutical's hard power, then participating in joint clinical trials will also greatly improve Longkang Pharmaceutical's soft power.

Edinburgh College of Art, UK.

After receiving a call from his sister-in-law, Xu Shuangyu hesitated for a long time.

She didn't want to have any interest relationship with Zhou Wen except for her feelings;

But on the other hand, she enjoys the privileged life provided by her family, drops out of school if she wants to, and goes to the UK to study art at an art college, while living in a comfortable and luxurious villa with a beautiful environment and a private nanny.

All this did not fall from the sky, she was obliged to do what she could for the family.

After thinking about it for a long time, Xu Shuangyu still dialed Zhou Wen's phone.

Xu Shuangyu: "Hey, what are you doing?"

Zhou Wen: "Just got out of class. ”

Xu Shuangyu: "After class?"

Zhou Wen: "Yes, you forgot, I am a professor in the biology department of Jiangzhou University, and I have courses every month. I went to Botswana before and I was left behind, and now I have to make up for it. ”

"Oh oh, yes, I forgot~" Xu Shuangyu nodded repeatedly, stroked a few strands of black hair around his ears, and asked, "That...... How have you been?"

Zhou Wen smiled and said: "It's very good! However, speaking is not your style." Say, what's the matter?"

"Poof-" Xu Shuangyu puffed out his cheeks, and a hint of shyness appeared on his pink face that intended to be exposed, "Okay, my sister-in-law's company wants to cooperate with Universal Biotech to conduct joint clinical trials." ”

Zhou Wen smiled and said, "I thought what was the matter, just let Mr. Xu call me directly." ”

Xu Shuangyu: "No...... Well, my sister-in-law said that I discussed it with your company manager, but your company manager didn't agree. ”

"Oh...... That's right. Zhou Wen understood.

Xu Yuting was quite thoughtful, Zhang Jianfu was a professional manager hired by himself, since he didn't agree, he must have his own considerations, if Xu Yuting directly crossed Zhang Jianfu and called him, if he agreed, it would be a slap in the face of Zhang Jianfu.

If she doesn't agree, it's a slap in the face.

In short, there will be a gap between each other.

And letting Xu Shuangyu come forward will not have these problems, whether he agrees or not, it will not affect the cooperative relationship between them.

"Okay, I see. ”

"Hmm!" Xu Shuangyu didn't say much on this topic, and instead asked, "When are you coming to Oxford to study?"

Zhou Wen smiled: "Probably in September next year." Didn't I tell you before? ”

Xu Shuangyu: "That's right. That ......"

Xu Shuangyu didn't know what to say for a while, thought for a while and said, "That...... By the way, the last time you said you met a high priest in Botswana, what happened?"

Zhou Wen: "Later...... We talked about a few topics, about the disease......"

The two of them talked for a long time and talked about a lot of things, about art, about life, about the future.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Shuangyu held his cheeks and looked at the trees in the back garden, in a daze, thinking in his mind why didn't he talk about "about us"?

......

On the other side, Zhou Wen hung up the phone and called Zhang Jianfu.

Originally, he was going to talk about Longkang Pharmaceutical, but suddenly he had some other ideas.

simply asked him out to meet and talk.

The two of them chatted while eating in a very distinctive restaurant in Jinhu District.

After Zhou Wen said his thoughts, Zhang Jianfu shook his head again and again and said, "This is impossible. Funding is one thing, and in addition, SFDA is quite strict about the approval of joint clinical trials of a class of new drugs, not to mention our company, even Longkang Pharmaceutical cannot get it.

On the surface, we do have the initiative, but in fact, we have no other choice at all except for some old CRO companies such as Yaoming KangDe, Tiger Pharmaceutical, and Kailaiin.

Either cooperate with them, or extend the experiment indefinitely, waiting for the reform of the SFDA. ”

Of course, Zhou Wen knows how difficult it is to apply for approval documents for Class I clinical trials, especially joint clinical trials.

But he didn't want to be held hostage.

No matter how difficult it is, he has to open up the joints inside!

Otherwise, according to the current situation of domestic CRO companies, giants such as Yaoming Kangde, Tiger Pharmaceutical, and Kailain will soon become companies like Tengxun, and instead of thinking about research and development, they will adopt plagiarism, suppression, acquisition, etc., and become trust companies in the pharmaceutical industry.

"I'll take care of the administrative stuff. ”

"This is a really troublesome ......"

Zhang Jianfu wanted to persuade Zhou Wen, but seeing that he didn't look like he was joking, he nodded and said, "Okay." If you're going to try, it's up to you, but don't force it if you can't. ”

Zhou Wen nodded, "Well, I know!"

The reason why Zhou Wen has this confidence is naturally because of Yan Zhang.

On January 1, 2020, Yan Zhang officially took office at SFDA.

The three fires of the new official's appointment, coupled with the fact that once the AIDS drug is on the market, it can be regarded as a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and it is reasonable to give the green light.

Three days later, on January 7, Zhou Wen went to Kyoto.

chatted with Yan Zhang for two hours.

After Zhou Wen left, Yan Zhang took the information given by Zhou Wen and looked at it excitedly for a long time.

In fact, in the past week, he has been thinking about what kind of "fire" to burn, it is meaningless if the fire is small, and I am afraid that the leader will not agree if the fire is big...... After all, he is not the top of the SFDA.

It happened that he was worried, but he didn't expect the pillow to come to him from sleepiness, and Zhou Wen sent the materials over.

Yan Zhangzai carefully read the materials several times, including some experimental audio-visual materials, and also read them all from beginning to end.

This is no joke.

The news media can be irresponsible, as the new safety director of SFDA, if he gives the green light to Universal Biotech at that time, and the so-called new anti-AIDS drug is completely an oolong, where will his face go?

Yan Zhang stayed in the office until about nine o'clock in the evening before leaving.

The next morning, he submitted an application report to SFDA for the "Interim Management Measures for Clinical Trials of Class I Drugs".

The content of the application report is very simple, and I hope that SFDA will make a special event to provide some temporary policy support to innovative pharmaceutical companies like Uniworld.

SFDA takes this very seriously.

In addition to the fact that the HIV drug itself is a major concern of the medical community at home and abroad, Yan Zhang, as the newly appointed safety director and the actual third-in-command of SFDA, also wants to give him some face.

So there was an internal discussion on the same day.

Generally speaking, when a department like SFDA discusses a policy, even if it is temporary, it takes at least one to two months to conduct preliminary research, and then hold a party group meeting to discuss it.

It's normal to be faster for three months and slow for half a year.

However, this time, with Yan Zhang, the newly appointed safety director, and the strong public voice at home and abroad, clinical trials are imminent.

So the program went very fast, and it only took three days to investigate.

Closed on Saturdays and Sundays.

Monday the 13th.

At 9 a.m., the SFDA held a party group meeting to discuss it, and then voted by a show of hands.

Everyone gave Yan Zhang, the new director of security, face, and unanimously passed.

......

As soon as the bill on the front foot was passed, the follow-up news reached Zhang Jianfu's ears.

Zhang Jianfu was shocked by this.

He didn't expect Zhou Wen to be so hand-eyed, and such a big thing could be done easily, and so quickly.

It was less than a week before he came to himself to discuss the matter and when the SFDA formally adopted the temporary management measures.

He couldn't think of any other words to describe it than awesome.

But then the blood in his body boiled.

Now that Huanyu Biotech wants money and money, technology and technology, coupled with policy support, there is no need to look at the faces of CRO companies such as Yaoming Kangde in the future.

He immediately called the lab and asked them to start preparing for the joint clinical trial.

As for the participating CROs, it will really be up to them to choose.

There is no doubt that Yaoming KangDe, Tiger Pharmaceutical, and Kailaiin will be excluded and some more innovative small CRO companies will be selected.

......

Yaoming Kangde and some other companies soon knew about the decision of Huanyu Biotech.

They are furious that Universal Creatures have left them alone.

A series of countermeasures have been taken.

......

I won't dwell on the process of commercial warfare

However, throughout January, the world and the country were full of news about AIDS specific drugs.

As a newcomer in the pharmaceutical industry, Huanyu Biotech has grown rapidly by relying on this wave of eyeballs.

At the same time, the company is also growing and developing.

First of all, the number of directly managed stores has increased from 3 at the beginning to 13 now.

The range of products is increasing, and sales are increasing day by day.

At the same time, with the successful artificial cultivation of reed grass, the supply of its flagship product, Miracle Hair Growth Essence, has also increased from a total of 900 boxes per day at the beginning to 3,000 boxes per day now

The single-day sales were stable at 70 million.

What is this concept?

The global sales of King Glory in 2018 were 1.93 billion US dollars, and according to the current sales of Miracle Hair Growth Essence, the annual sales will reach an astonishing 3.65 billion US dollars, which is nearly twice the annual revenue of King Glory.

In fact, the shipment can be increased, but after all, the price of hair growth is not cheap, a box costs tens of thousands of yuan, and those who are willing to buy it have bought it, and those who are reluctant will not buy it even if it is cheap.

However, with the discovery of reed grass, the next step will be a downward adjustment in domestic prices.

At the same time, soon the miracle hair growth supplement will be available in Europe, America, Japan, South Korea and other countries.

I believe that there will be a new peak in sales at that time.

......

Zhou Wen returned to Jiangdu on the afternoon of the Chinese New Year's Eve on the 24th.

It was snowing heavily on the road, and the car was driving very slowly.

By the time I got home, it was already dark.

However, the newly flipped three-storey small western-style building at home on the original site is brightly lit, and the snowflakes are particularly beautiful under the illumination of the lights.

His father, Zhou Yong, and brother-in-law, Yang Xiaobing, stood at the gate of the courtyard with an umbrella and waited for him.

"It's snowing so hard, why are you standing at the door? ”

"It's okay, don't you have an umbrella~"

"I'm hungry after driving for so long, let's go, let's go in for dinner......"

Yang Xiaobing's parents also came.

A large family had a lively Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

After eating, I watched the Spring Festival Gala.

In fact, just a few old people watched, Zhou Wen and they were all playing with their mobile phones.

I didn't know what I saw, but my mother Wang Xiuying suddenly said, "Zhou Wen, have you talked about a girlfriend?"

Zhou Wen said casually without raising his head: "No." ”

The people in the living room looked at him together, and Wang Xiuying said, "24 is not small, I can almost talk." ”

Yang Xiaobing's father also nodded and said: "Start a family first, then start a business! With a family, you can have responsibility and responsibility, and you can work hard without worries." Instead of being as casual as now, there is no life plan at all. ”

In addition to Zhou Yong, others, including Wang Xiuying and Zhou Ling, thought that Zhou Wen had some money by selling patents, but it was not too clear how much money he had.

So Yang Xiaobing's father's words, in addition to asking Zhou Wen to talk about a girlfriend, the subtext is also to remind him to save money and not to be too ostentatious.

For example, buying tens of millions of luxury cars, in his opinion, is pure waste.

Yang Xiaobing understood, and said dissatisfiedly: "Dad, what does it matter to you if people have a life plan, I want you to eat radishes here and worry about it." ”

Yang Xiaobing's mother also said: "Watch your TV, don't talk too much about things that don't concern you." ”

Wang Xiuying hurriedly said: "Don't be angry, don't be angry." What my father-in-law said makes sense, Zhou Wen really doesn't have a qualitative way to do things now, one will be like this, one will be like that, and we need a girl to help us take care of him. I went on a business trip to Africa for two months, and only told us when I came back, and when I asked him, he said he had forgotten. ”

After a pause, he said: "By the way, do you know any girls, help him introduce one, meet him during the New Year, and save yourself a mobile phone at home all day long." Did Zhou Wen hear that?"

Zhou Wen was discussing with Chen Ruobing about the acidic group of a drug, and he didn't hear what they were talking about, so he said casually: "Well, I know." ”

Yang Xiaobing's father smiled and said, "That's okay." I'll help Zhou Wenwen color, and there is a suitable girl when I turn around, and tell you. ”

"Well, okay......"

Zhou Yong looked at his son, although he felt that with his son's ability, it was easy to find a daughter-in-law who was both talented and good-looking.

But after thinking about it, I don't think it's a bad thing to fall in love.

In case Wang Ba sees the mung beans in the eye, it is not a bad thing to hug his grandson early.

So they acquiesced......
