The medical black technology system of the top student

As Luliang’s second-generation drug passed phase III clinical trials.

Then, there is only one last question left.

That's the production of drugs.

How to produce drugs has become a crucial issue at hand.

Fortunately, Lu Liang didn't need to worry about this issue.

Ji Hong said: "Our team has a specialized cooperative pharmaceutical company that can help us produce drugs on an OEM basis. Xiaolu will authorize the patent, and then we can start production."

"As for the profits, this is your patent. After deducting the costs and corporate OEM fees, the profits are also yours."

Ji Hong had no idea about income. Lu Liang was his student, and he was not so dirty as to steal his students' scientific research results.

However, after Lu Liang listened to Ji Hong's arrangements for income distribution, he shook his head.

Ji Hong was a little confused: "Is there any problem in this regard?"

Lu Liang smiled and said, "Teacher Ji, I don't need that much money. I only need half of the income. The remaining income should be used to fund the research team."

Lu Liang is not a person who doesn't know how to repay kindness. He knows very well that if Ji Hong helps him from beginning to end.

It is estimated that it will take several years for second-generation drugs to be launched on the market. How can it be done so easily?

After listening to Lu Liang's words, Ji Hong was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that Lu Liang would actually bring this up.

After coming back to his senses, Ji Hong smiled and did not refuse.

Because scientific research is inherently an extremely expensive thing. Sometimes a bottle of reagents costs tens of thousands of dollars. If you still want to do scientific research without funds, just go home and wash up and sleep.

If the research team wants to continue to produce results, sufficient funding is essential.

With the funding provided by Lu Liang, he could stop taking on horizontal projects from those companies and let the entire research team concentrate on research.

"By the way, Xiao Lu, when the drug will be on the market, what will it be called? Have you thought about it?" Ji Hong asked.

Facing Ji Hong's question, Lu Liang hesitated for a while.

Why don't we just call it Dasatinib? Lu Liang thought about it for a while, and it seemed a bit difficult to pronounce. He might as well give it a different name.

"Why don't you call me Bai Shuke?"

Ji Hong suddenly suggested at this time.

Generally, medicines are named after diseases or medicinal effects.

The name Ji Hong chose was very suitable from all aspects.

"Let's call it Bai Shuke." Lu Liang didn't bother to think too much.

Now that the name has been decided, there is only one last question left.

Ji Hong asked the most critical question: "How much do you decide to price the drug, Xiao Lu?"

Lu Liang is the owner of the patent, so he naturally decides the price of the drug.

Lu Liang fell into deep thought for a while. The price couldn't be as casual as the name. Lu Liang really had to think about this matter carefully.

In terms of pricing, the first thing he thought of was Gleevec.

The current market price of Gleevec is 40,000 yuan per bottle. Although the drug is expensive, it is because of the huge research and development costs involved.

But after so many years, Novartis has made a lot of money with Gleevec, and the research and development costs have long been recovered, but the drug has no intention of reducing the price.

Now Gleevec only has production costs included, which may be less than 200. It can be said that when a bottle of medicine is sold, 99% is profit.

Moreover, with hundreds of thousands of chronic myelogenous leukemia patients in the country, Gleevec’s ability to attract money can be said to be staggering.

Lu Liang couldn't help but smacked his lips. No wonder those people said that as long as you have an innovative drug in your hands, it is like having an inexhaustible gold mountain in your hands. In the future, future generations will have no worries about food and drink.

In fact, this is indeed the case. After all, this is a life-saving medicine. If the patient wants to survive, even if he spends his entire family, he has to spend money to buy it!

If you don’t take any medicine, you can only wait for death!

Isn't it because Gleevec took a fancy to this point that it dared to raise the price to sky-high prices?

However, it is naturally impossible for Lu Liang to set the price of Bai Shuke at 40,000 per bottle.

Because he had to consider another thing, which was the source point.

In the system, source points are obtained based on the sales volume of the drug.

The more drugs you sell, the more source points you can obtain.

If, like Gleevec, the price of Beishuk is 40,000 per bottle, Lu Liang would certainly be able to earn a lot of money from each bottle of the drug.

But the sales of the problematic drugs are not increasing!

Without enough drug sales, he would not be able to obtain enough sources to analyze other new drugs.

For Lu Liang, this was more gain than loss.

Therefore, Lu Liang's current goal is to reduce the selling price of the drug as much as possible to obtain the most sources.

For Lu Liang now, income is secondary.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Liang asked, "Teacher Ji, how much does a bottle of their medicine cost?"

"The cost, if you don't count the research and development costs, raw materials, machines and labor costs, the cost of a bottle is probably no more than 200."

Ji Hong replied: "What, Xiao Lu, have you figured out the price?"

Lu Liang grinned: "Teacher Zhang, I've thought about it. The price of Bai Shuke will be 500 per bottle."

500?

When he heard the price, Ji Hong couldn't help but froze, his face full of surprise and astonishment.

He even doubted whether he heard correctly.

You know, this is a specific drug that can treat chronic myelogenous leukemia. Currently, Gleevec with the same effect is sold for a sky-high price of 40,000 per bottle.

Although he knew that with Lu Liang's character, it was impossible to raise the price of the medicine to such a high price.

However, the price of 500 per bottle still far exceeded Ji Hong's psychological expectations.

After coming back to his senses, Ji Hong said in confusion: "Xiao Lu, do you have to think clearly? This is an anti-cancer drug!"

Lu Liang did not answer directly, but asked instead: "Teacher Ji, tell me, what is the original purpose of our research and development of drugs?"

When Lu Liang asked him, Ji Hong was stunned.

Lu Liang continued: "If medicine appears, its purpose in this world will only be to make money."

"Then Shen Nong must have a huge fortune, and Li Shizhen must be as rich as anyone in the country, right?"

"But did they, they didn't."

"So, Teacher Ji, I have always felt that the purpose of medicine has always been to save people, not to make money, right?"

Ji Hong fell into silence for a while.

He couldn't help but remember that in that era when everyone yearned for the beacon of the world, he resolutely chose to reject the million-dollar annual salary and chose to return to his motherland.

As for his choice, the attitude of his colleagues was more of shock and confusion.

Ji Hong suddenly laughed, his smile filled with relief that he had never seen before.

After finalizing the price of the drug, Lu Liang left Ji Hong's office, and then he took out a phone number from his pocket.

This phone number was given to him by Ji Hong, who was the pharmaceutical company owner with whom Ji Hong had a cooperative relationship.

Looking at the phone number, Lu Liang took a deep breath. After waiting for so long, he finally waited for this day.

Now the second-generation drugs are finally ready to be launched!
