The three of them stopped for a moment, and then Sako Hoshino led the way, planning to take the two of them to a more famous Japanese restaurant nearby for dinner.

But just halfway through, Wu Xiongfei suddenly stopped and asked with a somewhat embarrassed face, "Miss Hoshino, is there a bathroom nearby?"

Sako Hoshino pointed to the shopping mall next to him and said, "There are inside, but we are about to get to the place, and Mr. Wu can also go there conveniently." ”

"I'd better settle it nearby, I'm older, you know. ”

Wu Xiongfei explained with a smile, then turned around and walked towards the gate of the mall.

"Mr. Qin. ”

After Wu Xiong flew away, Hoshino Sako said to Qin Fan: "Mr. Qin, I haven't been to your country, and I don't know much about the customs of your country, but I have a question I want to ask you, I don't know if it's presumptuous." ”

"Speak. Qin Fan said with a smile.

"Actually, the medicine you sent for quality inspection this time, when I left the research institute, I had already analyzed several pharmaceutical ingredients, and it was indeed from our Oriental Medical Research Institute, but listening to what you and Dean Wu said just now, the efficacy of these drugs is very real, there is no problem of falsehood and shoddy, and the price is more than twice as low as your similar products, shouldn't this medicine be what the people need the most, why do you still boycott it, and then let the people buy your high-priced drugs, so as to make a profit?" asked Sako Hoshino.

Qin Fan paused for a moment and asked, "If you, as a group executor, when similar competing goods appear in the market and start to devour your product market, will you let it go because of the so-called needs of the people?"

"I can't control this, in our place, if this kind of product appears, unless the original group lowers its price to cater to the market, it will announce its closure or transformation, and will not do this kind of thing for its own profit, and let the people be harmed, and we have a special supervision agency to prevent this kind of thing from happening. Sako Hoshino said.

"Huh. ”

Qin Fan glanced at her, don't you know that your position as the head of the so-called Kyoto Pharmaceutical Research Institute, as well as the sky-high annual salary you get every year, are also the benefits of the so-called black-hearted competition in your mouth?

"If this matter involves my own interests, then I will announce my resignation and no longer serve the group. As if she had guessed Qin Fan's thoughts, Sako Hoshino said.

Looking at the stubborn little woman in front of him, Qin Fan suddenly smiled.

"What are you laughing at, don't you think it's immoral to sacrifice the welfare of the people for the sake of your own interests?" questioned Sako Hoshino.

"Allowing these cheaper but equally effective drugs to enter the market will only make more people who are distressed by seeing a doctor feel hope for life, isn't this the real purpose of the existence of medicine? And it is precisely out of the reverence for life and the infinite pursuit of the health of ordinary people that our institute can win several Nobel Prizes in medicine, and it is precisely the efforts of our institute that will make a batch of targeted drugs of the Shen Group can be ahead of the global peers, isn't it?"

Qin Fan nodded and said, "You're right, but I don't want to argue with you about this topic." ”

"Why? Are you weak?" questioned Sako Hoshino.

"Not really. Qin Fan shook his head, instead of denying Hoshino Sako's words, he expressed his extreme approval of them.

Because Sako Hoshino is a person in the field of medicine, anyone who works and researches in this field must, as she said, maintain a heart of reverence for life and the infinite pursuit of the health of the greatest number of ordinary people, which must be a very pure spirit in order to develop batch after batch of medicines that will protect mankind from the torment of disease.

But he is different, he is a businessman, after these medical workers have researched drugs, the biggest problem he asks to consider is how to recover the cost of research, and how to maximize the benefits of the product after it is put on the market.

It's not a conflict, because those are two things.

They can't be mixed together.

"However, haven't you thought that when these drugs have similar effects to us, but the price is half less than ours, completely shocking our market and crushing our group, the price of drugs will be set higher than ours, and then the people will have other choices?"

Qin Fan looked at her and said: "I can tell you exactly, these new drugs have always been sold at a price lower than the cost price, and no businessman in the world will do a business that loses money, they use the price advantage to defeat our group, and when the market is completely monopolized by them, the funds lost before will be earned back from the public when the people have no choice, and the price that the people need to pay will be more than several times the purchase of our medicines." ”

"Why do you say they're going to do it? Won't they set a similar price to you? Is it just because they're your competitors?"

"Heh, it took our group nine years to bring the prices of these foreign-funded drugs to this point, isn't it enough?" Qin Fan said with a smile.

Sako Hoshino was stunned.

But at this moment, there was a sudden commotion at the entrance of the mall next to the two, first there was a piercing scream, and then countless people rushed out of the gate of the mall, and the police patrolling outside hurriedly rushed to the gate.

"Something's wrong?"

Looking at the scene in front of him, Qin Fan frowned.
