Chapter 735: It’s too late to be surprised by intercontinental missiles, next time

ˆ “.”

I heard what Li Jue said.

Especially when he heard the amount of the dividend, Wang Yougong couldn't help but his eyes widened:

“You sold $6.3 million in three months? You actually have so much money?”

Li Jue looked at him with a smile and corrected him again:

"Comrade with meritorious service, you are wrong. The 6.3 million U.S. dollars is the dividend we received. The actual sales should be more than 30 million U.S. dollars."

“Of course, being able to get so much money is related to the popularity of Viagra when it was first launched. Sales volume should gradually decrease to a stable range after a period of time.”

“In addition, according to our agreement with Qu Runpu, the dividend distribution cycle will also be extended to once a year. This time is considered a special case.”

Wang Yougong opened his mouth subconsciously, wanting to say something, but in the end he remained silent.

 See this situation.

 Li Jue on the stage smiled very understandingly.

Not to mention Wang Yougong's gaffe, it is said that when the dividend was received, even some big leaders in the capital could not sit still.

Although everyone knew that Viagra’s sales would explode, when this scene happened in front of their eyes, everyone still looked unbelievable.

To know.

 This is 6.3 million US dollars.

If this happened in the future when Xu Yun traveled through time, there would be nothing to say. This number is astronomical to most civilians, but in the process of country-to-country, especially Sino-US trade, it can only be regarded as An inconspicuous little tweet.

 Even like the Sijiqing Garment City in Hangzhou, the export share of some foreign trade garment factories in a year is more than this.

But it’s different now. The $6.3 million dollars these days is really scary.

To know.

 The annual GPD output value of Neon next door is only tens of billions of dollars.

At this time, the global per capita GDP is only US$456, and only 30 countries and regions in the world can reach this standard.

 If the time is pushed back another three years and seven months.

China will also introduce a regulation that any trade using foreign exchange exceeding 20,000 US dollars must be signed by a few big rabbits standing at the top.

Although that regulation has something to do with China's lack of foreign exchange, it is enough to show the value of the U.S. dollar these days.

 The result was unexpected.

In less than three months, Qu Runpu actually gave out a dividend of more than 6 million U.S. dollars?

Even if this amount of money is converted directly using the exchange rate without considering the importance of foreign exchange, it would be more than 10 million Chinese dollars.

 In the entire conference room, Xu Yun was the only one who was relatively calm.

 Different from the previous long-range missile planning, it can be said that the amount of Viagra's dividends this time has been within his expectations.

  After all, there are rules to follow.

 In the original history, in March 1998, the “little blue tablet” Viagra was officially launched for sale across the sea.

In the year of its launch alone, Viagra sold 50 million tablets, with sales of nearly US$773 million.

 At the end of the same year.

 Viagra has been successfully launched in 40 countries, achieving global expansion and leading the industry, becoming the world's No. 1 drug for the treatment of erectile dysfunction.

  More exaggerated.

 The gross profit margin of this thing is as high as 90%

Although the purchasing power of U.S. knives in 1998 was not the same as it is now, there is really no pressure at all to achieve annual sales of over 100 million in Europe and the United States at this time.

 “But it’s not right”

While Wang Yougong was silent, a **** who had studied abroad across the sea suddenly spoke:

“Director, as far as I know, from the successful development to the official launch of the drug across the sea, it seems that it has to go through some kind of FDA review process, right?”

“The time when we got on line with Qu Runpu was probably three and a half months ago. How could he have completed the FDA process so quickly?”

"Forehead"

Li Jue was stuck for a while after hearing this, and then turned his attention to Xu Yun:

"Xiao Xu, you know this matter better. It's up to you to explain it to Comrade Aimei."

Xu Yun nodded when he heard this, put down the pen in his hand, and said:

“Yes, if you follow the normal marketing process for cross-border drugs, they do have to be reviewed by the FDA, the Food and Drug Administration.”

“The establishment of this organization can be traced back to 1903, and the certification cycle for drugs is generally about one to two years.”

 As a later generation PhD student in drug-related biology, Xu Yun is naturally no stranger to FDA certification.

 The FDA system across the sea was established very early, and it can be divided into food FDA, medical device FDA, cosmetics FDA, and pharmaceutical and biological products FDA certification.

 Follow the general procedure.

 A newly developed drug must first submit an IND (Investigational New Drug) application to the FDA. The FDA mainly reviews in vitro safety data and animal experimental data.

 After this level is passed, it will enter the fourth phase of human experiment certification.

 This part of the human body used for experiments is usually more seriously ill patients, or some poor people who are short of money - in the later generations when Xu Yun traveled through time, some Run people relied on this to make a living.

 After passing this level, you will enter the new drug application process, which usually takes about ten months.

  If the new drug application is approved, the drug can enter the preparation stage for marketing.

 The entire process above usually spans one to three years, but this is only a theoretical implementation.

Then Xu Yun paused and said to the **** named Huang Aimei:

“Comrade Aimee, have you ever heard of Enavid produced by Searle Company?”

 “Enavid?”

Huang Aimei repeated the term, and then suddenly thought of something, her face turned slightly red:

"heard about it."

 Enavid, whose English name is Enovid, is a child-blocking drug that was launched across the country four years ago.

 Huang Aimei and her husband Liang Tian got married when they were studying abroad across the sea. Last year, they took a detour to Europe and returned to China.

  This couple had made plans to return to China several years ago. Considering that something could easily happen if they took the child with them on the way back, they never conceived a child.

 But some aspects of life between husband and wife have to continue, so Huang Aimei naturally came into contact with the drug Enavid.

Xu Yun nodded when he heard this and continued:

“Comrade Aimei, do you know how long it took for the drug Enavid to pass the review?—I mean how long it took to pass the review.”

Huang Aimei shook her head.

 She is not a medical student, so it is naturally impossible for her to understand this.

Xu Yun quickly raised a finger:

 “Then I can tell you the answer now, within a week.”

“That’s right, it only took Searle a week to get the drug approved.”

Huang Aimei was suddenly startled.

Then Xu Yun shrugged towards her and said with emotion:

“Comrade Aimei, across the sea is a world that is completely different from our domestic system.”

"They have a glossy and notarized appearance on the surface, but there are actually a lot of dirty things hidden inside." "For example, they need letters of recommendation to go to college, or for medicines or other things to be put on the market, and money can be used to clear the way."

“One of the partners Qu Runpu found this time is a raw material supplier called Amily. This company is backed by the FDA, so the so-called audit”

 Speaking of which.

Xu Yun shrugged at Huang Aimei in a very Western style:

“In front of the krypton gold method, it was accelerated to three days to complete.”

  FDA certified.

This is considered a very credible and authoritative certification system in later generations. At least in the later generations when Xu Yun traveled through time, it would be difficult to shorten the FDA certification time.

 But it’s different now.

In this era, not only the rabbits are poor, but the other side of the ocean is also in the development stage of advanced industries.

 According to historical trajectory.

  The FDA will not pass the "Kefauver-Harris Drug Amendments" in June this year, setting a baseline time for the next human experimental observation period—at least half a year.

 Before this, many pharmaceutical manufacturers shortened the time through krypton gold.

The most representative one is Enavid mentioned by Xu Yun, the first oral interception drug for children in human history.

Enavid was originally conceived by social reformer Margaret Sanger, who found biologist Gregory Pincus and wealthy woman Katherine Dexter McCormick to develop it. drug.

The development process of the drug is not shown here for the time being. In short, Pincus determined the formula in 1957.

 Then the cool operation of Seale Company formed by these people came.

Across the sea is a standard Christian country, so abortion has always been very controversial. Many people think that intercepting children is an unethical practice.

Hence, Pincus and his colleagues could only find more than 200 experimenters until the beginning of 1957.

However, Pincus changed his words when submitting the drug application and played a word game:

He no longer mentioned the number of people who participated in the experiment, but only emphasized the number of menstrual periods he observed - [In the 1297 cycles that were carried out exactly as required, there was no pregnancy. 】

The report was then handed over to the FDA. Under the impact of McCormick’s money offensive, the FDA not only agreed with the data, but also approved the drug for marketing a week later.

Of course.

Due to the excessive pressure of public opinion at the time, Enavid was initially marketed as a drug for menstrual irregularities. It was not until last year that it was officially marketed as a child interception drug.

The original Enavid was like this, and the same is true for Viagra at this time.

 According to what Xu Yun learned, or the information collected by the capital.

Qu Runpu has found many big names as partners this time, and even placed advertisements in Time Magazine, so that he can quickly go public.

After listening to Xu Yun’s explanation, Huang Aimei nodded thoughtfully:

 “So that’s what happened”

As an international student who has spent a long time across the sea, she knew immediately that Xu Yun’s explanation was most likely true.

 If nothing else, she and her husband were able to study at the University of Pennsylvania only because of the letters of recommendation obtained through Ye Qisun's connections.

Then she thought of something else, and asked Xu Yun worriedly:

“Advisor Xu, I have another question—although we are currently cooperating with Qunrunpu, what if the nuclear bomb explodes successfully?”

“What if the other side of the sea feels that we are too great a threat and uses policies at the national level to intercept our dividends?”

Hearing this, Xu Yun immediately shook his head and explained:

“No, Comrade Aimei, our cooperation with Qu Runpu is not as simple as cooperation between a country and an individual. There is a medium, or a transit offshore institution, between the two parties.”

“So according to the rules, the mainland side has little to do with Qu Runpu. In this case, if the other side of the sea wants to exercise hegemony unreasonably, Mao Xiong will not let go of this excellent opportunity.”

be honest.

 Huang Aimei's concern was also mentioned by Li Jue a few months ago, but Xu Yun did not need to take action on this matter. The capital found a solution:

The capital contacted a friendly family in Xiangjiang, and Qurunpu found a company in Maple Leaf Country. The two parties reached a cooperation agreement by bypassing the supervision across the sea through the company's branch in Constantinople.

 This is not something we take for granted, but is a real case that can be traced in history.

 However, this case has nothing to do with medicines, but involves food imports.

 In January last year.

 After Melody officially came to power, he could consider exporting grain to China based on humanitarian principles.

However, China hopes that China will formally request grain imports from the government on the other side, while China hopes to directly discuss the possibility of grain imports with private commercial organizations on the other side to minimize the political impact.

This proposal could not be resolved due to the lack of communication channels, and the plan to directly import food across the sea was shelved.

But during this period, grain companies across the sea showed great enthusiasm. Bunge Group bypassed cross-sea supervision through the company's branch in Paris and exported a large amount of grain to China.

At the same time, Bunge Group also introduced Cargill Group as another partner, and the amount of wheat imported throughout the year eventually reached more than 50,000 tons.

Of course.

This approach is just a way to circumvent the rules, and the actual parties to the transaction will naturally not be able to escape from the other side of the sea.

 But don’t forget.

 Today’s world structure is not one superpower with many super powers in the future, but two super perverts confronting each other.

 Hence, many of the restrictions on the other side of the sea are not as arbitrary as those of later generations, and even the Nobel Prize that should be given to the furry bear scientists cannot be interfered with.

 In addition, with the connections Qu Runpu has made, the Rabbits don’t have to worry about their dividends being withheld.

 As for Qu Runpu’s reaction.

Again.

Qu Runpu is by no means a loyal undercover, but for a businessman like this who only cares about money, as long as there is a stable exchange of interests, he will definitely be a reliable partner.

After thinking about this, the expression on Huang Aimei’s face finally became relieved:

 “Director, then I have no problem.”

Li Jue nodded towards her and asked other people present:

“Besides Comrade Aimei, does any comrade have any other questions?”

Everyone at the scene shook their heads, and even Wang Yougong, who had spoken before, sat back down.

Upon seeing this, Li Jue had a look of satisfaction on his face. The purpose of their meeting today was not only to inform everyone of the organizational arrangements, but more importantly, to answer everyone's doubts.

 Only by clearing up everyone’s confusion, can the entire base be knitted together and unleash maximum production power.

Then he paused, and the expression on his face became serious again:

“Very good, in addition to the above, what I want to say next will be another very important thing and the last thing for today’s meeting.”

"That is"

Li Jue was seen looking around the scene with sharp eyes like a falcon, showing the extremely rare domineering attitude of a battlefield veteran:

“The final decision will be made based on repeated organizational discussions and taking into account factors such as the internal situation and the international environment.”

“The footage of the atomic bomb test in Lop Nur will be broadcast live to people across the country simultaneously!”
