The outside world is still in full swing over drugs and even the Patent Law.

Of course, many pharmaceutical companies are also not immune to being shot.

It's inevitable and a little bit not-so-good.

So much so that both Qi Lin and Professor Zhang felt the pressure.

Even, they have to change the direction of research for this reason.

"Research on specific targeted drugs? That's a big hole. Qi Lin frowned.

Professor Zhang sighed: "No way, there are other people who make ordinary medicine." However, the threshold of targeted drugs is not for anyone to enter. ”

Ordinary medicine refers to the most common kind of medicine, such as cold medicine, which is universal, so the price is low, and ordinary people can call it by name.

Targeted drugs are drugs that can only target specific diseases, such as Gleevec mentioned in the movie "The Road of Life", which is only effective for leukemia patients.

This is the biggest reason why the price of targeted drugs remains high.

Ordinary medicines can be sold at a small margin, because they are aimed at the entire population.

Targeted drugs can't be done because they only target special populations and are ineffective for people with other conditions.

Gleevec, for example, is only effective for people with leukemia.

And how many leukemia patients are there?

R&D funds are placed there, expecting them to reduce prices and play the set of small profits and quick turnover, which is naturally unrealistic, and this account will be calculated by anyone who has studied mathematics.

Of course, many ordinary people don't understand the difference, and that's normal.

And this part of the people is also the easiest to be guided.

Now there is a public opinion on the Internet, saying that the research and development of this drug will support 100 million yuan, and even the research and development fund of 1 million is a lot.

Qi Lin did not know whether the situation of false reporting of numbers existed, and he played pure academic research in his life.

But 100 million can develop Gleevec, and the R&D budget for a new drug is only 1 million?

Is it poor who has never seen money? Do you dare to force a little more?

If there were only so little research funding for the development of a specific targeted drug, what kind of houses would those businessmen build? What kind of personalities would celebrities speculate?

Sadly, there are people online who believe this claim.

The popularization of the Internet has brought about the degradation of the average IQ of netizens.

This also gives those who have a heart the opportunity to make waves.

And many innocent people will inevitably be affected by this.

For example, the current Qi Lin.

"The biggest problem in our country is the lack of innovation ability, there are too many generic drugs, and in terms of targeted drugs, we have to rely on imports, so the bargaining power is almost completely lost. If you want to change this situation, you can only go through innovation. Xiaofeng, I won't hide it from you, you are under a lot of pressure. I'm old, and you're young, and you've proven your ability to innovate. According to the information I received, the above is going to allocate you another amount, which is not small. ”

Qi Lin smiled bitterly.

Of course, this money is not so easy to take.

In the field of R&D, it is not uncommon to burn hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars without getting anything, but for R&D personnel, a sense of honor and responsibility spurs them not to face failure.

If they really spend a lot of money and don't get anything, even if the outside world will not have opinions or even know about these things, it will not be easy for them to pass that level in their own hearts.

The so-called hard work, you can have no regrets, and the people who say these words are outsiders.

Anyone who enters the game and fails will regret it.

But when things come up, how can those proud people with a sense of responsibility and honor retreat?

"Relying on generic drugs really can't be on the table. There's nothing to say, so let's do it. ”

A generic drug refers to a generic product that is the same as the original drug in terms of dose, safety, efficacy, quality, effect and indications. After the expiration of the original drug patent, other countries and pharmaceutical factories can produce generic drugs.

This is a way to reduce production costs and medical costs, and it must exist, but the technical content is not high.

To put it bluntly, it is a pirated ~ version protected by law.

Of course, if you produce this generic drug during the patent period, you are infringing.

In fact, many generic drugs are playing the edge ball, and before the patent period of the original drug has passed, these generic drugs will come out, and they will seize the market of the original drug in the name of similar efficacy.

This kind of lawsuit is really a lawsuit, naturally a dozen and one lose, but this kind of behavior is actually endless, and there is no shortage of people who wash the floor for them, and it is conclusive to say that generic drugs are not pirated ~ versions.

It's purely insulting to someone else's IQ.

By analogy, this is a phenomenon that has once appeared on the Internet: Chinese to Chinese.

The author and fans all said that they didn't copy it, but in fact, whether they copied it or not is a personal psychological force.

Oh, no, there are really no brain-dead fans, in their eyes, what the idol says is what it is.

The reason why the plot in "The Road of Life" caused this controversy is precisely because Gleevec's patent has not expired, so it is an undoubted infringement.

Many people sing praises for this, although they talk about freedom of speech, but this tendency, I'm afraid the above will not like it too much.

It's also bad for the future of the film.

Qi Lin is not too optimistic about the long-term line of this movie, firstly, because there are people with a heart to lead the rhythm, and secondly, some fans lack basic concepts of right and wrong and legal concepts, and are too easy to be guided, and even take the initiative to guide others.

One pink race ten black, the same since ancient times.

But that has nothing to do with Qi Lin, what Qi Lin has to do is to develop new drugs, reduce costs, grasp the bargaining power, and make medicines affordable for as many patients as possible.

But it has to be said that in fact, this can only alleviate the contradictions. Because even if he develops it, it will require a huge amount of money. He is not the protagonist of those miracle doctors, he dominates the world alone. He also has various scientific researchers under him, and Qi Lin must ensure that they are rewarded and that other scientific researchers can see hope.

In this way, a virtuous circle can be formed.

So he can't make the price of targeted drugs low to the extent of pirating ~ drugs.

If you want to solve this problem fundamentally, it doesn't exist, at least in Qi Lin's eyes.

No solution.

Unless Qi Lin forcibly sets the world, but that doesn't make much sense, and it's not Qi Lin's style of doing ~ things.

He doesn't like one person to change everything, and it is unhealthy for an organization and a country to rely on one person to function normally.

Only when a complete system is formed to ensure that the organization or the country can operate normally without anyone can it be called success.

This is also the biggest difference between Qi Lin and those so-called protagonists who like to shoulder to shoulder.

You can only be yourself and have a clear conscience.

That's what Qi Lin thought and did.

He didn't think much of it.

But in fact, his actions have indeed had a profound impact on the world.

When a butterfly stirs its wings, the world changes.
