Chapter 569: The Courage of Kyoto Medicine

.. Soon Tian Lu found that he was a little too underestimating his current name and the appeal of the future biological laboratory.

Just after Qian Lele sent a second notice to several pharmaceutical companies, announcing his intention to organize a large-scale joint experiment to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the newly invented compounds, those multinational giants who have been in the field for a long time and are extremely clear first reacted, and almost in just two or three days, the delegations of the six giants have all arrived in Kyoto!

Yes, delegations, almost every giant sent more than five people, in addition to the head of the R&D department, there were also their respective top executives, lawyers, etc., flocking to it!

Before the delegation of the giants arrived, Li ** of Great Wall Pharmaceutical and Meng Yun, the CEO of Kyoto Pharmaceutical Group, had already come to the door in person to meet with Qian Lele, the current director of Future Biotech, and expressed a strong willingness to cooperate!

Everyone is not stupid, after receiving the information and samples of future organisms, they have already attracted great attention, and this time they have received a request to prepare for a joint evaluation, who still doesn't understand what is going on?

This antidepressant compound is no small feat! And what is even more exciting is that Tian Lu made a joint evaluation and the decision lasted for half a year, and the meaning contained in it is very intriguing......

"You mean, their future creatures' inventions are important?" The mayor of Kyoto City, Luo Ning, frowned, and asked Meng Yun with a solemn face.

"Absolutely, very important!" Luo Ning nodded without hesitation, and said with some excitement: "Mayor." Antidepressant drugs are now the largest in the central nervous system drug market, in our country, with more and more attention to depression, the market size is about to exceed 10 billion Chinese dollars, and the United States is more than 10 billion US dollars! In fact, the global market size is more than $30 billion! The market for this one drug alone is two or three times higher than the annual sales of Kyoto Medicine! ”

"Oh?" Luo Ning's brow furrowed even deeper, his fingers tapped lightly on the tabletop, and he lowered his head in thought.

When it comes to Tian Lu and his future biological laboratory, Luo Ning's impression is extremely profound. And not just because he'd been to the Future Bio Building.

And the ultra-luxurious scientific research facilities in it left a deep impression on him, and because of Tian Lu, a scientist, or a doctor, in front of him, he was neither humble nor arrogant, since he became mayor, but no one dared to refuse his proposal so simply in front of him for a long time!

In a sense, though. Luo Ning really didn't have much to do with Tianlu. Tian Lu is an academician of the Academy of Sciences.

Foreign Member of the American Academy of Sciences. At the same time, he is also the winner of two first prizes in the national science and technology awards last year, and can be said to be one of the most popular scientists in China, in the professional field.

It has a high prestige and academic status at home and abroad. In addition, according to some people, he is also one of the most promising Nobel Prize scientists in China, and he is also the most promising one, vaguely, Luo Ning even heard that there are people at the top who are very concerned about him, so even as the mayor of Kyoto City, he is not willing to have any conflict with such a figure.

Being in a high position is not something that can be foolish, especially the higher the position, the more you have to walk on thin ice, and you can't overdo everything!

Originally, according to Luo Ning's thoughts, he didn't want to have anything to do with Tian Lu in the future, but this time Meng Yun came to the door again, which made him feel a little helpless.

However, as the mayor of Kyoto City, and the Kyoto Pharmaceutical Group is the largest biopharmaceutical company in Kyoto, he cannot ignore it, especially after everyone knows that biopharmaceuticals will be one of the most important industries in this century, and the development of Kyoto Pharmaceutical Group is related to too many things.

"Are you sure?" Raising his head suddenly, Luo Ning asked solemnly, "Professor Tian's new invention this time...... Is it really as you guessed, this time it's ready to sell out this patent? ”

"Yes, I'm eighty percent sure!" Meng Yun immediately nodded and said, "It is not normal to organize a joint evaluation of multiple enterprises with such fanfare, and the time is as long as half a year, and Future Biology is responsible for all the expenses." If you relate to the last time we met, he said that he is now looking for a suitable place to build a larger scientific research base, I think he is likely to raise enough funds with this new invention! After all, according to Professor Tian's plan, not to mention the land area he needs, even the construction cost is an astronomical amount! And the most important thing is that when I visited this time, I communicated with Qian Lele, the current director of Future Biology, and her words revealed intentionally or unintentionally the idea of selling out the patent this time, so ......"

"Do you think this patent is really valuable?" Luo Ning rubbed his temples and asked with a headache: "If you want to compete with those multinational giants, I'm afraid you Kyoto Medicine will have to pay a very huge price, is it worth it?" ”

"I think it's worth it!" Meng Yun didn't hesitate for a moment, and said loudly: "In fact, any pharmaceutical company will probably think that it is definitely worth it!" This is not only because of the special xing of this patent, but also because of Professor Tian's personal prestige, after all, he has never failed! Besides, everyone's joint evaluation for half a year is enough to support a lot of things......"

"How much do you expect it will cost you to buy out this patent?" This time, without waiting for Meng Yun to finish speaking, Luo Ning waved his hand and asked in a deep voice, "One billion dollars, or two billion dollars?" In addition, after investing such a huge amount of money, how long will it take for the drug to be on the market? How much can I sell after I go public? How long does it take to recoup my investment? A series of questions suddenly confused Meng Yun a little!

However, these things had already been considered countless times in Meng Yun's mind, so at this moment, after taking a deep breath, he said in a deep voice: "If there is a basis for this cooperative evaluation, the experimental time in the laboratory stage will be greatly reduced, at most one year is enough, and if there is no reservation of investment, the clinical stage will raise enough cases as soon as possible, I think three years is enough!" Other words. It will take up to four years for the drug to be on the market! ”

"Of course, even if it is put on sale, the final sales will vary greatly depending on the company being sold!" Meng Yun paused, and said with a somewhat bitter expression: "If it is those multinational pharmaceutical giants, the annual sales may soon reach more than five billion US dollars!" But if it were Kyoto Pharmaceutical, I'm afraid it would be far behind, but I am confident that we will be able to achieve more than $2 billion in three years! When he said this, Meng Yun's mood was a little apprehensive.

But when you think about the huge market for antidepressants. One of his hearts burned immediately!

Although Kyoto Pharmaceutical does not have too many sales channels abroad, it can almost cover the whole country in China, and at the current development rate, if it takes another six or seven years.

The domestic antidepressant drug market may exceed 20 billion Chinese dollars! It occupies more than 50% of the domestic market.

Luo Ning is still sure! After hearing this. Even if he is the mayor of Kyoto City, Luo Ning's heart can't help beating violently!

As early as the last time he discussed with Meng Yun, Luo Ning understood one thing, the same sales. The difference in profit margins between patented drugs and preventive drugs is huge, sometimes even several times worse, and this is why those multinational giants invest huge amounts of money in the research and development of new drugs every year!

The annual sales of domestic pharmaceutical companies are not very low, but they have invested heavily in the field of sales and circulation, but the profits are very small, which has a great relationship with this.

More than two billion dollars in sales a year, and the profit in it ...... If it's just two billion dollars a year, Luo Ning doesn't care much, but don't forget, for Kyoto Medicine, two billion dollars a year, lasting more than ten years, is likely to be a turning point!

With the driving effect of this drug, the company's reputation will be greatly improved, driving the sales of other products and creating greater economic benefits!

Meng Yun has explained this very clearly just now. There are too many examples of a company that can rise with a hugely successful product, and as a leading company in the field of Kyoto pharmaceuticals, the success of Kyoto Pharmaceutical has more significance, for the entire industry, for employment, the development of the industry, and so on!

Thinking of this, he swallowed hard and spit, and Luo Ning asked in a somewhat strange voice: "Meng Yun, you haven't answered my first question just now, if you want to buy out this patent, how much will it cost?" Do you have an approximate number? ”

"This ......" subconsciously ignored this question just now, but when Luo Ning asked again, the expression on Meng Yun's face became even more bitter, and after being silent for a long time, he replied with a little trembling under Luo Ning's more solemn gaze: "I don't know!" Mayor, I really don't know, but the only thing I know for sure is that if the results of the joint evaluation successfully verify Professor Tian's data prediction after half a year, then the price of this patent is definitely not something that we can afford at Kyoto Pharmaceutical Group! ”

"What about loans?" Luo Ning was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "I can say hello to the bank and give your group a loan, and the amount can be appropriately larger!" In this case, you will pay half and the bank will pay half, and this will be the head office, right? ”

"I'm afraid not." The expression on Meng Yun's face was almost about to cry, and he shook his head again and again: "Even if it is half of the funds, our Kyoto Medicine will not be able to raise it, and I am afraid that amount will be ......."

"Huh?!" At this moment, Luo Ning was completely stunned! The strength of Kyoto Pharmaceutical Group Co., Ltd. Luo Ning knows very well that although the annual profit is only a very low level, if you really want to raise funds ruthlessly, there are still billions, but this is not even half?

How valuable is that new drug? After being silent for a long time, Luo Ning asked a little blankly: "Meng Yun, since you found me today, you must have an idea, so tell me honestly now, what is your idea?" ”

"My idea is simple, Kyoto Medicine must not miss this opportunity!" Taking a deep breath, the expression on Meng Yun's face was suddenly full of indomitable momentum: "More and more multinational giants are entering the Chinese market, and more and more of them are beginning to implement localization strategies, Kyoto Pharmaceutical really can't afford to wait!" We must have our own core technology and our own fist products as soon as possible! So in any case, if the results of the joint evaluation are extremely good, we must give it a try! ”

"How?" Luo Ning asked subconsciously.

"Fight for money, we definitely can't fight those multinational giants, so we have to think from a different angle!" Gritting his teeth, Meng Yun suddenly made up his mind and said: "Start from two aspects, one is to invest in what it needs, after all, our group company has an old brand and a long history, and the capital in some aspects is still extremely strong!" On the other hand, I think it's time to seriously consider the issues that Professor Wada mentioned during the last meeting, and Kyoto Medicine must have the courage to ............ I'm sorry, I wrote two thousand yesterday, and I thought I could finish it by noon at the latest, but I didn't expect a day to be free.

After running for a day, my leg is going to break, so I'll continue to write and strive for another chapter! (To be continued......)
