309 shares of Pfizer

"It's better not to. The importance of hand-made sulfonamides to Giant is self-evident, and if the patent is to be transferred, it will be a loss for Giant Company in any case. We will also face challenges from other companies. Prick said.

He looked at the noncommittal Situ Nan, changed his words, and said: "This Spanish flu has given sulfonamides a special value, and now the whole world is looking forward to it, but with the production capacity of Giant Company, even if our current production scale is increased tenfold, it will still not be able to meet the needs of the market.

This is something that our competitors see in their eyes, and they are trying to put pressure on us with this, and I think that if we reject them all, some bad news will soon spread, such as greed for money, monopoly, neglect of the public interest, etc., and they will do everything possible to slander and slander Giant.

However, if Giant wants to become a large company in the pharmaceutical chemistry industry, it also needs to bear certain social responsibilities. It depends on how you choose, Mr. William, if you want to transfer the patent, the best option at the moment is Pfizer. ”

This guy is a little slippery! Saying so much is equivalent to not saying anything. Situ Nan glanced at Prick and said, "Okay! Then cheap Pfizer once! We exchange sulfonamides for a 30% stake in Pfizer, with a minimum of 25%. I'll leave it to you! ”

As expected, Pfizer readily agreed. Giant traded sulfonamides for a 25% stake in Pfizer.

To this end, Situ Nan also concocted a Giant Holding Company, integrating the shares of Giant Company and Pfizer Company into Giant Holding Company.

Since it's on sale, it's a big sale! Under the manipulation of Situ Nan, Giant Company licensed the Bailang Duoxi patent to Pittsburgh Coking Chemical Company. In this way, the coke chemical company, which has made a lot of money in the past two years, vomited blood.

After the sulfonamide patent was licensed to Pfizer, according to the tacit agreement reached by the two parties, the market in the eastern part of the United States was handed over to Pfizer, and the western market and overseas markets belonged to Giant.

The spheres of influence of the two sides are roughly divided in this way, but they are not strictly controlled, and it depends on who has more production capacity and is faster. It's a race for production, and it's about money, fame, and life.

When Pfizer announced that it had successfully licensed sulfonamides from Giant, the U.S. pharmaceutical industry was in an uproar, and most people didn't know how Pfizer was favored by Giant, except for the parties involved and some well-informed big pharmaceutical companies.

This is a good thing, which means that the proliferation of sulfonamide technology means that more patients will benefit. In an interview with Moody's, Fitch's New York Times, the health secretary publicly praised Giant as the conscience of American companies and expressed hope that Giant and Pfizer would produce more sulfonamides to end the disaster as soon as possible.

The cooperation between Giant and Pfizer really broke the minds of other pharmaceutical companies, and their conspiracy disappeared in the air before it could be implemented.

In addition to sulfonamides, some pharmaceutical companies in the United States also took a fancy to the root of the banlangen, and the shrewd businessmen soon learned that the popular banlan root tablets on the market were actually simply crushed and processed into medicine using the Chinese banlan root medicinal materials, and did not require too high production technology.

As a result, their minds became active again, even if they couldn't get sulfonamide technology to produce banlan root, at least banlan root also began to be hot, and citizens who couldn't buy sulfonamide chose banlan root more.

Radix is not as easily limited in production as sulfonamides, it is also cheap, it can be widely used, and its role in preventing influenza is also known to the world along with sulfonamides. Countries are beginning to look at China, it should be said that it is on that little blue root.

As early as a month or two ago, the Meihua Company had been hoarding a large number of medicinal materials in China, such as banlan root, Xia Sangju, and honeysuckle, and except for some medicinal materials that were shipped back to San Francisco in the United States, the others were produced at the Baiyunshan Pharmaceutical Factory in Guangzhou.

Baiyunshan Pharmaceutical Factory is a wholly-owned company established by Meihua Company in China, with an investment of 500,000 US dollars, and is the largest pharmaceutical enterprise invested by foreign investment in China. All the production equipment is imported from the United States, and all the technicians are sent from Giant, some of whom are workers who were smuggled into the United States from China, but now they have become skilled workers of Giant and have also obtained residency.

The production process of Baiyunshan Pharmaceutical Factory is basically the same as that of San Francisco's Banlangen Pharmaceutical Factory, but according to local conditions, the formula is slightly different, in addition to Banlangen, Xia Sangju, honeysuckle and other medicinal materials are added, the cost is lower, more suitable for the Chinese drug habits.

Due to the use of large machine qì production, the production is much larger than that of the average pharmacy workshop, and it can be supplied to the market on a large scale. The ordinary medicinal materials such as banlan root and Xia Sangju are not expensive, unlike the sky-high price of sulfonamides, which ordinary people can afford, so they quickly became popular.

The strategy of Baiyunshan Garment Factory is small profits but quick turnover, and Situ Nan does not intend to be as profitable as Giant Company in this regard, and it is impossible. However, the tablets produced by the big machine qì are more acceptable to foreigners, and the Baiyunshan Pharmaceutical Factory has received a lot of orders from Britain and France and made a lot of money.

Most of the profits will be used to expand production, and in addition to Guangzhou, Meihua also plans to establish a branch factory in Shanghai. Even so, these Baiyunshan pharmaceuticals alone cannot meet the needs of flu patients in China, and many of them die without treatment. There are multiple reasons for this, in addition to the limited capacity of Baiyun Mountain Pharmaceutical Factory, it is also related to the turbulence, social chaos, and people's living standards.

Still, in any case, it's better to do than not to do well. Situ Nan hopes that Tongguò Meihua and the William Foundation will treat as many people as possible. Meihua also obtained a small part of sulfonamides from Giant and used them in China and Nanyang.

For influenza worldwide, promotion and prevention are of paramount importance, and most patients are infected because of a lack of knowledge about it.

The Williams Foundation's first overseas branch is located in Hong Kong, with plans to establish branches in Guangzhou, Shanghai and other regions. Tongguò Meihua Company, William Foundation, the Red Cross, the Church and other charities have reached a consensus to jointly carry out large-scale free clinic publicity for the prevention and treatment of influenza.

William Foundation medical experts also share tips and information on flu prevention with local civil affairs and health officials.

At a time when they were at a loss, the William Foundation and the Red Cross were welcomed by all walks of life in Guangzhou.

Even many of the infected soldiers in the army benefited from this, and it was difficult for the generals, big and small, who realized the severity of the situation, not to set up obstacles, and the soldiers and ruffians outside the city did not reach out to the volunteers of the William Foundation and the Red Cross.

It is impossible to rely on a social organization to change a society, and the William Foundation is not a savior, and the Baiyunshan Pharmaceutical Factory is not a charity hall, but after some efforts, there are finally some gains, and at least some people can get the possibility of survival.

When sulfonamides came out, Ronaldo, the Spanish consul in San Francisco, came to the door first. He hurried to find Corey, almost in a longing tone, asking Giant for a batch of sulfonamides.

Because Spain is the hardest hit by the flu, millions of people have been infected, and even the king's ministers have caught a cold, in case they are not careful

After the "Los Angeles Times" published the news of sulfonamides, the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs immediately ordered Ronaldo to get sulfonamides in the fastest possible time.

Ronaldo couldn't help but care, because even the staff of his embassy in San Francisco had the flu.

Curry naturally allowed everything, and he happily approved a batch of sulfonamides to Ronaldo. But before Ronaldo could go far, the British consul came with his heel, and he also came for sulfonamides.

Not only the consuls of Spain and Britain, but also the consuls of France, Italy, Japan, and China have all set their sights on sulfonamides, and they have all made demands to Giant to ask for sulfonamides, no matter how much it costs.

It was impossible to supply them in large quantities, but Giant complied with the demands of these foreign officials, providing them with small quantities of sulfonamides at sky-high prices. These are all life-saving pills for the powerful people in each country. As for ordinary people, they can only wait for sulfonamides to be marketed in large quantities.

Luckily, it wasn't too late. In October 1918, at the height of the Spanish flu outbreak, Giant and Pfizer factories were already producing on a large scale. Large cities such as New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, and San Francisco are prioritized for sulfonamides.

As the location of Giant, the flu epidemic in Los Angeles was first brought under control, and 650,000 Los Angeles citizens walked into the hospital with sulfonamide to take sulfonamides, instead of being isolated and helpless as before, waiting to live or die, all thanks to personal luck.

In Washington, D.C., inside the Consulate General of the Republic of China in the United States, a young and elegant man looks at his wife, who is dying of flu in bed, and his heart is filled with grief.

He is Gu Weijun, China's diplomatic genius and quite famous. It's a pity that no amount of diplomatic talent can fight against the Spanish flu for his wife.

"Cough, cough, cough" Seeing his wife's painful appearance of almost coughing up her lungs, Gu Weijun had an ominous premonition in his heart, too many people outside had died of such a cold.

"Take care of our children!" The woman said with difficulty, as if she had exhausted all her strength.

"Baoyue, don't worry. I will. You must cheer up! I'm going to help you find a doctor—" Gu Weijun encouraged.

"No, I'm almost dead~~~~" The woman's breath gradually weakened, like a gossamer, and her eyes were like dead ashes.

"No!" There was a terrible cry from the consulate!

And so at the same time, "Bang! A man slammed the door and came in, and said quickly: "It's coming, feed it quickly, and save it!" ”

"Oh! Good! Hurry up, hurry up! After a lot of scrambling, I finally poured it into the woman's mouth.

"What's the medicine?" Gu Weijun asked the man next to him. Just now, he was already dispossessed, and almost reflexively bit the two white pills and fed them to the patient.

"Sulfonamides! A new elixir in Los Angeles! But whether it will succeed or not depends on her creation! The man touched the sweat on his head.

The two stared at the unconscious woman on the bed, silently praying in their hearts for a miracle.
