Chapter XVII: Negotiations
"That's pretty much it, after we came back from the country of sticks, we received an email from Asilikang. Because it will involve data collection, and I can't involve the laboratory behind it, it is difficult to find a professional negotiation team. ”
Nie Peng told the three of them what happened, and the lunar part was naturally brought by him in a mysterious laboratory. But that's it, and a lot of details are still not said.
It only emphasizes the long and difficult R&D cycle, which is tantamount to conducting experiments on the moon.
In this regard, the expressions of the three of them still carried some admiration.
"So, this Elaprase research has been working on in your lab for a long time?" Chen Panpan asked.
"Yes, Elaprase's research project started in '05. It is only in recent years that it has been taken seriously, mainly because it is an acetin made mainly of Elaprase, which can effectively alleviate Sanin syndrome. Nie Peng spoke eloquently, in the process of fabricating the mysterious laboratory, he had already thought of a narrative for Elaprase's research.
"But the side effects are also obvious, after taking this statin, the patient, will be extremely drowsy, if the dose is not well controlled, it may lead to a large number of brain cell death.
The root cause is that the molecules made of statins are too active, which will accelerate the oxidation of cells and cause irreparable damage. ”
"Eh, ask" Di Jiaying raised her hand weakly, "What is Sanin syndrome?" ”。
"Equivalent to psychosis plus mania"
Chen Tuan summarized on the side that he had heard about this disease from Professor Li before, and even joked that if he got this disease, wouldn't he have rabies. Professor Li was almost kicked out of the classroom.
Seeing Nie Peng nodding, Di Jiaying suddenly realized, "Ah, I understand, you mean to say that the medicine made by this bacterium before, with big side effects, can make a madman become a fool." So only a madman will eat.
But after the improvement of your laboratory, the medicine made has no side effects, right? ”
"Yes, you said it brilliantly." Nie Peng had a headache.
"Has it been in clinical trials?" Chen Panpan asked on the side, she was more concerned about the efficacy of the drug.
"Clinically, Asliceca is doing it, because there are too few Elaprase variants obtained, so the intermediates produced are not enough to make enough medicines. Another reason is that patients with Sanin syndrome are difficult to identify, and there are too few samples that can participate in clinical trials. ”
"So why go to the trouble of studying it? It's not easy to make, and you don't know who to cure when you make it. What did they buy for? Di Jiaying asked.
"Because, Sanin syndrome, is the closest to Alzheimer's disease." Nie Peng said slowly.
"It's Alzheimer's." Chen Tuan always felt that Nie Peng was showing off something in professional terms, and he didn't understand what he just said as a biopharmaceutical professional, let alone two completely layman ladies.
"Then why not use Alzheimer's patients for clinical practice?" Di Jiaying asked, Nie Peng didn't see it when she was smart, but when she was stupid, she let him see it comprehensively, thinking that it was really X brainless, and the ancients didn't deceive me.
"It's the same screwdriver, can you flatten the mouth with a cross flower? Eat your meal! "The only one who dares to say that about her is Chen Panpan.
Nie Peng was already speechless about this living treasure, although Chen Panpan had just introduced Di Jiaying's identity: a top student in the Department of Finance of Stanford University, but judging from her current performance.
Nie Peng felt that her education was like selling cuteness in exchange.
"In this way, they currently have to rely on launching manned spacecraft to prepare the Elaprase variant, so they hope to cooperate with you to reduce the cost of research and development, so you still have the initiative." Chen Panpan said.
"Do you know how much they cost?" She asked.
"I don't know, I only know here that there are a total of 12 samples from their previous cultivation, and only one of them has an effective mutation, and those mutants have prepared about 230 milligrams of intermediates, and the declared value is 5 milligrams and 40,000 euros." Nie Peng remembered the news revealed in the email from the Swiss Research Center.
"That's enough, we can find out what rockets the subject is carrying, and how much it costs to launch. Estimate the maximum capacity of a single launch vehicle and see what the lowest cost they can do. Chen Panpan has put himself in the role of collecting information.
"Only by knowing oneself and knowing oneself can one win a hundred battles, so can you tell me your R&D cost?" She asked Nie Peng, this is also the question that several people sitting here, including Di Jiaying, are most concerned about.
You asked us to talk about business, and we don't know the bottom line, how to talk about it?
Nie Peng looked at the ceiling, pondering how to explain the cost of this problem, he invested 10,000 yuan from beginning to end to produce more than 20 grams of mutants, how to calculate this account?
Even if one gram of mutant can produce one gram of intermediate.
A milligram for five cents? 500 pieces a kilogram?
Even these mutants are still reproducing in a steady stream, and it can be said that as long as he does not take the initiative to stop the survival guarantee of the mutants, then they will continue to reproduce endlessly.
This.... I can't show it at all. Here are two five-cent things, they say they are worth 40,000, and there is an exchange rate of 7.5 times in the middle. That's 300,000.
Where is this profiteering, and what is the difference between this and winning the lottery?
Scratch tickets are also TM's 5 yuan a piece!
"The details still need to be calculated, I will send it to you later, I can only say that the cost is much lower than launching a rocket." Nie Peng said.
On the issue of cost, he intends to carefully consider it, which is related to the transaction of accounts after the contract is established, and the tax issue. If you want to act as a middleman, then how to build a reasonable supply and marketing chain is the key, otherwise the later tax problems can annoy him.
But judging from the savings on hand, let alone buying a laboratory, it is difficult to build a small bungalow.
"Low cost has advantages" Chen Panpan stared at Nie Peng:
"But it doesn't mean that the low price can win the negotiation, the R&D team of Aslim is not something we can figure out, and most of their purpose of negotiation is not for the product you have at hand. If the efficacy of the Elaprase variant is shown to work in Alzheimer's disease, then... ”
"Then you will send it, Ah Si Likang will find you to cooperate with you for a long time, and will even find a way to buy your laboratory to monopolize the technology. At that time, all pharmaceutical companies in the market will step in as long as they have capital. Di Jiaying interjected.
"Yes, if there really is such a day." Nie Peng answered, he knew what an embarrassing situation he was in at the moment:
It's good to say that the product is invalid, and there will be no follow-up problems after Aslikang purchases the first batch. But once the product is proven to be effective, then he and his laboratory will inevitably be pushed to the forefront.
If his production capacity is not enough to meet the market demand, it is not impossible for other pharmaceutical companies to launch specialized rockets to prepare the Elaprase variant.
Alzheimer's special medicine, just think about the fat that makes people's eyes red.
"Bang, bang" Nie Peng propped his elbows on the table, slapped his face with both palms, and dragged himself back from the thoughts that were drifting farther and farther away.
It's too early to think about this, and you don't have enough money to deal with it, and endless assumptions will only stop you.
"Let's not talk about this for now, let's think about the issue of the cooperation between Aslikang."
"Well, I'm going to be collecting information about Asilicon these days, and if you're sure you want to hide your lab, you'll need to give me basic data. Otherwise, this cooperation cannot be discussed. ”
