12. RB Market

"Little Shakru, the business in China is doing well, I see that this guy Nie Will can't close his mouth every day, it seems that he is making a lot of money from you!" Uncle Carter said with a smile to Shark, and he said that Nie Will was the Indian doctor who helped Shawlu prescribe.

"Well, everything is going well. Shakru replied vaguely while pouring wine for Uncle Carter, not that he didn't want to elaborate, but mainly because he was afraid that Carthus would be red when he heard that he had earned more than 10 million yuan in just three months, and it would be bad if it led to some other thoughts about him. (A patient can earn 10,000 yuan by purchasing medicine Shakru at a time, and the number of more than 1,000 patients in the local and foreign parts of the magic capital should not be too exaggerated, of course, the growth rate in the later period is definitely not so fast.) )

"Well, that's good, so that you don't have to worry about marrying low-caste women for money. Karl nodded in satisfaction.

Hearing Carthus say this, Shakru felt a little embarrassed, it turned out that his uncle's spiritual pursuit was different from his own, it seemed that he was not a Hindu, and it was difficult to understand the insistence and stubbornness of caste.

Just when he was embarrassed, Carthus asked again: "By the way, do Boudia and Mahi listen to them? If not, you tell me, and I will teach them a lesson!"

Budia and Mahi are Shakru's employees in India, but they are both actually domestic slaves of Uncle Carthus, of course, in modern society they can no longer be called slaves but servants, but in fact there is not much difference. Although he disagrees with this system very much, he is very satisfied with such an employee, and it can be said that he can do whatever he wants, without any complaints.

So Shakru praised again and again: "They are very obedient, I am very satisfied with them, and it is convenient for the servants of the clan to use them." By the way, Uncle Carterus, can you help me find a few more, I may expand my business in the near future, and I still need manpower. ”

Uncle Carthusian replied disappreciatively: "The servant is not there yet, it is really not possible to ask the butler to go to the country to find you a few, I promise to be very good, but I have to let Mashi and them take them for a while, after all, I have just come from the country and I am not suitable for everything in Delhi." ”

"It's okay, anyway, I have to go to RB to investigate first, and then I can decide whether to expand the business!"

"Visiting RB?"

Before Carter could finish speaking, Shakru nodded and replied: "That's right, I want to try to open up the market for generic drugs in RB!"

"RB Market, you are not ambitious, and the money you make in China is not enough for you to spend?" asked Uncle Carter in surprise.

"Who would have too much money?" replied Shakru casually.

Uncle Carter gave Shakru a deep look, then frowned and said, "How do you feel that after my brother's death, little Shakru seems to have changed as a person, and you weren't so keen on these business things before?"

"Well, isn't it like I have to rely on myself without my father's protection, so I have to work hard!" Shakru explained with some embarrassment.

"Actually, you don't have to work so hard, you can spend enough money, and even if you can't make money, don't you have an uncle and a temple. Uncle Carthusian reassured.

"I'm still young, so it's better to spell it out. Shakru argued.

In fact, Sha Creo has had this idea for a long time, because as far as he knows, Lu Yong, the prototype of the actor in the movie, "Medicine Man", was originally bought in RB as an Indian imitation of Gleevec, so there must be a market in RB, but the Chinese market is larger, so Sha Crew's first step is to go to the magic capital.

Since there is a gap of nearly half a year now, it is better to take the opportunity to develop the RB market, but when Shakru really came to RB to investigate, he sadly found that the situation here in RB is completely different from China.

Because Gleevec not only sells at a lower price in RB than in China, only 16,000 per bottle, but also has a high medical expense system in RB's national health insurance, after you get this high certificate, you only need to bear 30% of the cost every month when you make reasonable use of it and the tax level of your family can maintain the requirements of the high certificate, which is more than 6,000 when converted into RMB. (This high medical fee system is very troublesome to explain, and you can go to Baidu if you are interested, but in general, you can save a lot of money if you use it well.) )

But in this way, his market will not be able to open up, so depressed, Shakru decided to find a place to relieve his emotions.

And in Tokyo, a place where you can relieve men's negative emotions can be said to be everywhere (after all, RB's industry in this area is extremely developed), in line with the idea that since you have money, you must see the most high-end places, Shakru came to Tokyo's entertainment mecca where he often YY in his previous life - Ginza.

After I found a palatial shop that looked like it was decorated and walked in, a very beautiful waitress ushered Shakru in and asked him, "Sir, what kind of service do you need?"

"Find someone to drink with me!" Shakru replied casually.

"Okay, please wait!" After a while, the waitress walked in with a beautiful woman, and when she saw this beauty, Shakru was taken aback and couldn't help but exclaim: "You, you are the altar honey?!"

PS: Let's popularize science why Gleevec has the highest price in China. First of all, because our country does not recognize the data of the US Food and Drug Administration. According to the Measures for the Administration of Drug Registration, even if an imported drug has been safely marketed abroad for many years, if it wants to enter China, it must be re-undergoing clinical trials. Clinical trials are a money-burning business for pharmaceutical companies, requiring the collection of a large amount of clinical data, which often takes three to five years.

According to the data disclosed by BJ Mainland Pharmaceutical Company in 2012, the cost of conducting phase III clinical trials in China is about 3 million to 7 million US dollars, and in most countries, imported drugs do not need to be re-clinicalized, so these costs must be evenly spread into the drug price, so that the price of natural drugs is higher than that of other countries.

The second reason is that the tax is too high, although it has been changed to 0 tariffs in recent years, but we are still levying 17% value-added tax on the original drug, as well as 15% of the hospital price increase, 20% of the circulation costs, these costs have become sky-high when passed on to consumers, compared with the previous 3% tariff is insignificant. This is also the reason why the price of original drugs in Hong Kong is almost half lower than that in the mainland.
