() Director Wei and Guan Yuntian have a friendship for more than ten years, although they do not meet often, but she has always paid attention to the development of Changda Group, whenever the company encounters any problems, Lao Wei always does not violate the principle, and actively find ways to help Guan Yuntian.

Seeing Guan Yuntian's preoccupied appearance, Lao Wei asked with concern: "As far as I know, the pharmaceutical industry is very strict about production licenses and drug approval cards, since these procedures have been completed, what else makes you so worried?"

"Changda Pharmaceutical Factory is making finished medicines, and you know that you need APIs to make finished medicines, and we are now experiencing difficulties in the source of APIs. "Guan Yuntian said.

"API is the main raw material of the finished drug, such an important thing, is it not fully considered in the preliminary preparation process of the project?" Lao Wei is in charge of planning, has been dealing with enterprises for a long time, and she is quite familiar with the decision-making process of industrial enterprises.

"I thought about it, and I decided to do the next thing after signing a supply contract with the API manufacturer first. ”

"What's going on?"

"We had everything in place, but the quality of the API supplied by the manufacturer was substandard, and we were suddenly put on the back foot. "Guan Yuntian said.

"Isn't there a contract? Suppliers should be held accountable. ”

"Even if we take the supplier to court in a lawsuit, it will not help solve the API we urgently need, and it will take energy. Guan Yuntian said helplessly.

"Yes, but why don't you seek other supply channels, they can't be the only ones producing this API in the country, right?"

"Hey, it's really such a coincidence, except for the two super-large pharmaceutical companies, the only enterprise that produces this kind of API is this Fengyuan Chemical Company. ”

"Oh, no wonder you're so embarrassed! But why don't you go to those two megapharmaceutical companies to buy APIs?" said Director Wei.

"We inquired, and the two super-large pharmaceutical companies make both APIs and finished drugs, and the APIs they produce are generally not sold to the outside world. "Guan Yuntian said.

"Do not sell to the outside world, are the two pharmaceutical companies in the province or outside the province?"

"One is the Kangjian Pharmaceutical Group Company in our province, and the other is a provincial enterprise, we have been in contact with these two units, and the statements are similar. ”

"There is no way for enterprises in other provinces, this Kangjian pharmaceutical company in the province, I asked a friend from the Provincial Pharmaceutical Administration to see what is going on. ”

Director Wei grabbed the phone in front of her, dialed a number, and after the phone was connected, she said, "May I ask if it's Director Huang? I'm Lao Wei of the Development and Reform Department." ”

"Old Wei, Director Wei, hello, hello, what instructions do you have?"

"A friend wants to buy an API from Kangjian Pharmaceutical Company, and it is said that they generally do not sell it to the outside world, can you help me inquire?" Director Wei quoted the name of the API.

"Kangjian Pharmaceutical Group Co., Ltd. is a large pharmaceutical company, very famous in the country, now it is really difficult to speak, for us administrative departments, people are also respectful, we are not good to say too much, after all, they are enterprises, the main consideration is economic benefits,"

"There is nothing wrong with enterprises paying attention to economic benefits! When buying their APIs, it is not that they do not give money, and according to the market price, there is no penny. You can help ask. "Lao Wei and Director Huang have been old friends for many years, and they talk more casually.

"Okay, you wait for my call. "Lao Huang is also quite simple.

More than ten minutes later, Lao Huang called back, "Director Wei, I asked for you, the situation is the same as what you said, Kangjian Pharmaceutical Company's APIs are indeed not sold to the outside world, because they not only make APIs, but also produce finished drugs, export APIs, and are afraid of being in medicine."

The pharmaceutical market competes with them. ”

"It turns out that this is the reason, which is understandable. But if you come forward, they have to give you a face, right?" said Director Wei.

"Oh, what kind of face? What is the commissioner with them? I finally agreed to sell some of it to your friend, but the price was not negotiable. ”

"In other words, whatever price they quote, what price it is, can't bargain?"

"Yes. Lao Huang relayed the offer of Kangjian Pharmaceutical Company.

"Okay, thank you. I'll look for you when I need it. ”

Guan Yuntian sat opposite Director Wei, and he heard the content of the phone call clearly, and the price of raw materials quoted by the other party was 20% higher than that of Fengyuan Chemical!

Putting down the phone, Lao Wei said: "Kangjian Pharmaceutical Company's APIs can be bought, but they can't bargain, what do you think?"

"I heard the other party's quotation, their price is 20% higher than the market price, to put it bluntly, Kangjian Pharmaceutical Company's move is to give Director Huang face, but also do not want to make the deal close. "Guan Yuntian said.

"So, you can't accept their offer for APIs?"

"As a last resort, the price of APIs is unacceptable, after all, the profits of drugs are only so much, if the price of APIs is 20% higher than the market price, the profits are taken away by APIs, and the enterprises that produce drugs are not equal to working in vain?"

"Yes, it seems that this health pharmaceutical company is really difficult to talk to. ”

"I understand their approach very well, after all, who wants to have one more competitor? But Director Wei, I still want to thank you and Director Huang, when you have time, you ask him out, I want to invite him to dinner, because Changda Group has crossed over to the pharmaceutical industry, since it is engaged in this industry, you have to be prepared to deal with its competent authorities. "Guan Yuntian said.

"You always do things forward, which is really good, to avoid a black eye after a problem, no one knows, even my old Su has a high opinion of you, saying that you are not the kind of person who crosses the river and demolishes the bridge. This is also Lao Wei's experience over the years.

"Director Wei has won the award, I am not as good as you say. By the way, the meeting was only about greetings, and I almost forgot the main task of coming here. Guan Yuntian suddenly remembered something.

"Oh, do you have any other tasks?"

Guan Yuntian took out a document from his bag and handed it to Lao Wei, "Director Wei, please take a look at this." ”

In front of Guan Yuntian, it was impossible for Lao Wei to look through the contents in detail, but she saw that the cover of the material was impressively written "Research and development of electrolytes and separator materials for high-energy batteries", and asked in surprise: "Are you developing high-energy batteries?"

"Yes, Changda Group and the New Materials Research Institute are jointly developing high-energy batteries and their electrolytes and separator materials, and the technical test results are provided by the New Materials Research Institute, and the process scale-up test is currently being done by Changda Group. "Guan Yuntian said.

"Your vision of the project is really unique and advanced, how did you come up with the idea of developing this project? High-energy batteries are the foundation of the future energy revolution! Its electrolyte and separator materials are the key to determining the performance of the battery. Lao Wei praised.

"Director Wei, in fact, I still have to thank you. ”

"Thank me? I don't think I've ever mentioned it to you. ”

"You didn't mention it, but it's about you. I still remember when Changda Real Estate Company first arrived in the provincial capital, it was here, I asked you to introduce me to a few consultants, and I saw the 'Provincial Industrial Development Guide' on your desk at that time. "Guan Yuntian said.

"That's the thing, no

I don't think this project was involved, right?"

"That's right, I was very interested in the solar power generation project at that time, so I copied the relevant information and brought it back to the unit, our general manager in the process of conducting solar power project research, asked one of her high school classmates about the situation, that classmate is a graduate of 985 University of materials science doctorate, is now the project leader of the new materials research institute, he told our general manager, solar power as an industry, has developed and formed, now it is not appropriate to enter, he suggested that Changda Group pay attention to the development of high-energy batteries, his reasons are similar to what you said。 ”

"Yes, this project is indeed very good, but in order to succeed in this field, technical and economic strength are indispensable, in the final analysis, the early stage of this project is the stage of burning money, but without the guarantee of technology, it is difficult for the project to move forward. The cooperation between Changda Group and the Institute of New Materials of the Academy of Sciences should be said to be a perfect match!"

"Director Wei, we heard that the policy has a lot of support for this kind of project, but I don't know what kind of project should be under the jurisdiction of those functional departments. "Guan Yuntian said.

"I thought what was the matter, it turned out to be this aspect of the problem, this is very simple, like this kind of project, development and reform, science and technology, industry and information technology and other departments must support. ”

"Director Wei, I have brought some information on this project, do you think it is appropriate for us to report directly to the provincial functional departments?" Guan Yuntian said tentatively.

"What's inappropriate? Such a project, with the funds of the county and city functional departments, I'm afraid it's a drop in the bucket, right?"

"Thank you Director Wei for your advice, and we will report it as soon as possible after we revise and finalize the application materials. "The so-called special support funds, enterprises have qualified projects, but also know that there is such a thing, as long as you apply, you can generally get the support of functional departments, if you don't know, even if there are eligible projects, no one tells enterprises how to do. Guan Yuntian is deeply aware of this.

Bidding farewell to Director Wei, Guan Yuntian went to the office of Changda Real Estate Company in the provincial capital, had lunch there, saw that the real estate company was running smoothly, and returned to the headquarters of Changda Group in the afternoon of the same day. Now, Guan Yuntian's attention is mainly focused on the Changda pharmaceutical factory, which is being shut down for materials.

Judging from the situation learned from the trip to the provincial capital, Guan Yuntian still hopes that Fengyuan Chemical's ongoing trial to improve the quality of the original drug can make a breakthrough as soon as possible, even if through Director Huang of the Pharmaceutical Administration, he can buy the raw materials of Kangjian Pharmaceutical Company, but the price is higher than 20% of the market price, which makes it difficult for him to accept.

A week has passed, and Lao Chen of Fengyuan Chemical has not received any news, which makes Guan Yuntian very anxious. At the beginning, the employees of the pharmaceutical factory were given a holiday, which was half a month, and if the problem of APIs could not be solved during this period, should the employees of the pharmaceutical factory be allowed to return to work at that time?

From the beginning of the business to the present, this is the first time Guan Yuntian has faced such a dilemma, and this has nothing to do with the business situation of Changda Group itself. If you want to say that you don't feel like a wretch, it's absolutely fake!

On the tenth day, there was no news from Lao Chen, Guan Yuntian couldn't sit still, he thought about it, grabbed the phone on the table, and dialed a number, "Hey, is it Mr. Chen?"

Lao Chen heard Guan Yuntian's voice, "Mr. Guan, I was about to call you." ”

"Oh, what's the situation? Is there any progress in your experiment to improve product quality?" asked Guan Yuntian anxiously.

"I also learned the test results just now, and it is said that the content of the latest batch of samples has increased to 99.5 percent. ”

"But that's the result of testing on your instrument, maybe it doesn't mean anything, if you put it here to test, I don't know what will happen. ”
