Chapter 173 Huakang Pharmaceutical Company
Kyoto Huakang Pharmaceutical Company!
Located in the economic development zone southeast of Kyoto, the factory covers an area of more than 100,000 square meters and employs nearly 5,000 people!
In a place where every inch of land is at a premium in Kyoto, there is such a large factory, which is enough to show the strength of Huakang Pharmaceutical Company!
The whole factory is in the right direction, and the south, west, and north are connected six-story U-shaped factories!
In the inconspicuous corner to the east of the factory, there is a two-story white house, which covers an area of more than 200 square meters. But every year it spends the entire profit of the entire factory!
It is Huakang Pharmaceutical Company, which established a laboratory for the research and development of anti-cancer drugs three years ago!
There is a lot of medical equipment in the laboratory, which is imported from abroad and is worth a lot of money!
There are a total of 11 pharmaceutical R&D technicians in the laboratory, and they can be said to be the top talents in the development of anti-cancer drugs in Longguo!
In a laboratory on the second floor, a young technician whispered to their chief technical engineer, Song Zhe.
"Chief Engineer Song, I heard that the company has problems and may go out of business!"
Song Zhe ignored it, and already did the experiment in his hand!
The assistant saw that Chief Engineer Song didn't speak, so he had to keep his mouth shut!
Until Song Zhe finished doing a drug molecule experiment in his hand!
After about five minutes of waiting, the results of the experiment came out!
His brow furrowed slightly, it was clear that he had failed again!
In the past three years, their team has done at least 12,000 drug molecular experiments, and all of them have failed without exception!
The general process of developing anti-cancer targeted drugs is divided into three steps!
1. Determination of targets and drug molecules, targets refer to specific molecules that act on the body and achieve efficacy. Drug molecules need to be screened in tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of molecules, which is very large and has a high failure rate.
2. Preclinical research, after confirming the drug molecule, in vivo and in vivo experiments are required. If it fails, you need to continue screening the drug molecule from scratch!
3. Clinical research, this step not only costs money, but also the research time is very poor, generally a few months to several years. At this point, there is already a large failure rate.
In short, the research and development of anti-cancer targeted drugs has a long cycle, a low success rate, and a particularly expensive one, with an average of about 10 billion yuan from the development of a new drug to the market.
Song Zhe's laboratory achievements screened two drug molecules, but they failed in preclinical experiments and clinical experiments respectively, and finally had to go back to the first stage to re-screen drug molecules.
Song Zhe brewed a cup of coffee, rested for a while, and then he needed to enter the next experiment of drug molecules!
Song Zhe's assistant sorted out the qualifications of the experimental results, walked over and said!
"Chief Engineer Song, don't believe it, my news is very reliable, the senior technician of our laboratory has already found a foreign drug research and development company!"
Song Zhe's thoughts were interrupted by assistant Liu Li, so he said angrily!
"Xiao Liu, where did you hear the gossip!"
When Liu Li saw Song Zhe talking, she suddenly came to her senses and said with a mysterious face!
"Chief Engineer Song, this is not gossip, my uncle is the financial director of our Huakang Pharmaceutical Company, I overheard ......"
He knew that Liu Li's uncle was in Huakang Pharmaceutical Company and was the financial director, otherwise Liu Li would not have been able to come to the pharmaceutical laboratory as his assistant with her nurse profession!
But Song Zhe didn't think the news was true.
Huakang Pharmaceutical Company is mainly engaged in the production of antibiotics, and three years ago, the boss approached him and said that he wanted to develop anti-cancer targeted drugs!
In order to let Song Zhe join the R&D team with all his heart, he specially showed him the company's financial statements, with an annual profit of up to 2 billion!
Moreover, the boss Ren Dayuan also promised Song Zhe that he only had to devote himself to research and development, and Huakang Pharmaceutical Company was enough to support his research for ten years!
Song Zhe agreed without hesitation, he believed that in ten years, he would definitely be able to develop anti-cancer drugs!
"Chief Engineer Liu, I suggest that you also hurry up and find a good home, otherwise you will be unemployed by then!"
"Xiao Liu, I see that you are idle, go and prepare the experiment, I am going to do the experiment now!"
Liu Li saw that Song Zhe didn't believe herself, so she had no choice but to get up and sort out the experimental equipment!
Song Zhe rested for about five minutes, and then continued to devote himself to the experiment!
……
The office of the boss of Huakang Pharmaceutical Company!
At this time, the boss Ren Dayuan's face was full of sadness.
The manager of the marketing department sat opposite him and said angrily!
"These companies are too insidious, seeing that our capital chain is broken, they actually join forces to kill us!"
"Hey! The mall is like a battlefield! ”
Ren Dayuan sighed helplessly!
"Mr. Ren, we really shouldn't have engaged in the research and development of anti-cancer drugs at the beginning, it took the company 6 billion yuan in three years, and we would not face such a crisis!"
The reason why Ren Dayuan made up his mind to develop anti-cancer drugs was that he saw that many people in the Dragon Kingdom could not afford imported anti-cancer drugs at all.
That's why he ignored the opposition of the people and resolutely developed the Dragon Kingdom's own anti-cancer drugs!
In the past three years, Huakang Pharmaceutical Company has invested all its profits in the research of anti-cancer targeted drugs!
It turns out that the antibiotics of Huakang Pharmaceutical Company occupy one-half of the market in the entire Dragon Kingdom, and there is no problem in supporting a laboratory!
However, in the past two years, many pharmaceutical companies that produce antibiotics have risen, and companies have competed with each other, resulting in a serious decline in their business volume!
Today, their business volume accounts for less than 10% of the market share!
In addition to the sharp decline in profits today, it directly leads to the breaking of their capital chain!
Now that the bank's loan is also due, the competitors have learned the news and united with their peers to reduce prices and compete, wanting to force their company to a dead end and share the market of Huakang Pharmaceutical Company!
