Tech Dominator Starts with Raising Kids-Chapter 181: Between Life and Death, a Single Thought!
"Some people say that life-saving drugs should be cheaper, but I want to say that every new drug requires research costs, which are unseen by the patients."
"Have you thought about it, if all drugs were sold cheaply and merchants made a loss, do you think there would still be business people willing to sell them? Would they still invest in the research of new drugs that might not even succeed?"
"Most likely not, because businessmen exist for profit."
"Not to mention anything else, at the very least, I need to recover the costs."
For a moment, the meeting room was so quiet that everyone could only hear the sounds of their breathing and heartbeat.
Because what Mo Jingchun said was indeed true, even as a representative of the health insurance bureau in the negotiation, there was no way to refute it.
Although it was unknown what price Mo Jingchun would propose, they had to face it, didn’t they? Only when a price was given could there be room for negotiation.
Mo Jingchun closed his eyes in thought. If leukemia patients were still in the early to mid-stages, according to experimental data, it would take about three to five courses of treatment.
Each course would require only 5ml of the leukemia special-effect drug.
One could say, it’s almost like picking up money.
Of course, this was all based on the fact that Mo Jingchun did not have much research costs.
Just like the previous negotiations, Mo Jingchun did not immediately announce the price; instead, he asked the representative of the health insurance bureau:
"I want to know, what is the reimbursement rate for the leukemia special-effect drug from the health insurance bureau?"
Ren Wenbin shook his head and sighed, "How much can be reimbursed specifically depends on how much your Candy Technology charges for its leukemia special-effect drug."
"Our country is a populous country, and the health insurance fund has always been under constant pressure."
"However, overall it remains stable."
Everyone watched as Mo Jingchun held a pen but hesitated to write.
At the moment Mo Jingchun quickly wrote on the paper, everyone’s heart leaped into their throats.
Ren Wenbin, who has been negotiating with major pharmaceutical manufacturers for years, could tell just by the sound that Mo Jingchun had written down four digits.
Just when Ren Wenbin thought Mo Jingchun was going to continue writing, Mo Jingchun stopped.
He casually pushed the A4 paper with the quotation written on it across the table.
For a moment, Ren Wenbin was stunned.
Four digits?
Even though Ren Wenbin was prepared for a long negotiation battle, it was the first time he encountered such a situation.
As you know, the target given from above was more than four digits.
What is this? A wasted trip?
If possible, Ren Wenbin would be willing to make this kind of trip for free across the globe every day.
Just so that more patients could afford the medicine and be responsible for lives.
"The first quote, 2,680 yuan for one course."
When the health insurance bureau representative received the quotation, Mo Jingchun directly capped the pen.
Obviously, Mo Jingchun made it very clear that he would not accept any further price cuts.
This kind of price, if cut any further, would feel a bit pointless to Mo Jingchun.
The fact is the leukemia special-effect drug didn’t have much research cost, but others don’t know that.
Moreover, in order to realize artificial intelligence, Candy Technology has been hiring massively.
As the number of employees increases, the monthly salary disbursed by the finance side is an astonishing figure.
Whether it’s building factories or company expansion, it requires a large amount of funding.
Leukemia patients, spending just over ten thousand yuan can be cured, is this medication cost high?
It really isn’t!
Even at this stage, excluding medication costs, the hospital bills alone are likely more than ten thousand.
Moreover, isn’t there health insurance as well?
In the future, leukemia will be at most like having a small surgery.
The kind that doesn’t even require entering an operating room.
Ren Wenbin’s eyes were slightly red, showing a smile for the first time, "We need a room to discuss, would that be convenient?"
"Su Wenyan, please take the representatives to Rest Room R22."
After taking the delegation out, Xu Pengfei was puzzled and asked:
"Boss, this drug, isn’t it..."
"Too cheap?" Mo Jingchun asked back.
Xu Pengfei nodded, and everyone else in the meeting room thought the same.
Mo Jingchun leaned back on his chair, looking at the ceiling.
"I don’t know either, I just quoted what came to mind."
That’s what he said, but only Mo Jingchun himself understood that right now, he felt like a three-year-old child holding a gold brick walking on a bustling street with all kinds of characters.
Mo Jingchun urgently needed a protective umbrella, one that could protect him and Candy’s existence at any time.
And the most robust protection is naturally the nation.
On the other side, Ren Wenbin and Qin Yuzhu did not discuss as they said before.
Instead, they directly made a phone call to the higher-ups.
As for the content of the call, only the people in the meeting room knew.
After coming out of R22, Su Wenyan coincidentally ran into Candy, who was coming out of the elevator, crying ceaselessly.
"What happened?" Su Wenyan’s tone changed.
In Su Wenyan’s memory, Candy rarely cried.
Given how much the boss cared for Candy, if he knew who made Candy cry so sadly, he would probably get angry.
Though the boss usually seemed easy-going and was good to get along with, Su Wenyan understood that the calmer a person is usually, the scarier they are when they get angry.
Su Wenyan stepped forward to hold Candy, wiping away Candy’s tears with her hand.
"I’m sorry, President Su."
"It was Candy who wanted to come up, crying to find the boss."
"I asked why Candy was crying so hard."
Huang Min whispered, "Because... she couldn’t find the boss."
Alright, I was overthinking.
"Leave Candy with me, I’ll explain to the boss."
"Thank you, President Su." Not having to face the boss, Huang Min finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The meeting room door was pushed open, along with Candy’s crying, without a second thought, Mo Jingchun stood up and walked over.
"Brother, woo-woo-woo~"
"Guoguo couldn’t find you."
Oh dear! I thought it was something serious. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
Mo Jingchun casually tossed the bun from Candy’s arms out of the meeting room and also sent the dagger out of the meeting room before carrying Candy from Su Wenyan’s arms.
"Why didn’t you call Brother?"
Hearing this, Candy got even angrier, her cheeks puffing up angrily.
"Guoguo did call, called several times."
Mo Jingchun was momentarily stunned, only then remembering his phone was on silent mode.
"It was Brother’s fault; will Guoguo forgive Brother?"
"Okay." Candy, with a pouting mouth, looked the cutest.
Before long, Qin Yuzhu and others returned to the meeting room.
Ren Wenbin extended his hand to shake with Mo Jingchun’s.
Smiling, he said, "Boss Mo, I really hope there are more entrepreneurs like you in the world."
"To accelerate the production of the leukemia special-effect drug, and to help patients who are still suffering recover soon, the state will help your company construct a production line for free in Huo County, expected to be completed in at most a month."
"A month?"
"Yes, modular construction."
