Rebirth 1975: Tore up the call-back order at the beginning

"What happened?"

Zhou Yang asked as he took the document.

"nice one!"

With a hint of doubt, Zhou Yang looked at these documents carefully.

After taking a second look, he asked in surprise, "Is this the patent for atorvastatin?"

"Correct!"

"Why did you apply in my name?" Zhou Yang asked in surprise.

"You were the one who researched this in the first place, so it's natural to apply in your name!" Lu Zhengjun said.

"Old Lu, don't be sloppy. You should know the importance of this patent. It is worth hundreds of billions of dollars. How could the higher authorities let this be in my hands?" Zhou Yang said in a deep voice.

"It is because of the great value that I applied in your name!"

Then, Lu Zhengjun said again: "Because I didn't know the value of fluoxetine at that time, I applied for a patent in the name of the company. I am sorry for that."

"When applying for a patent for atorvastatin this time, I specifically asked them to apply in your name. After all, you invented it, so it should be in your name!"

"Up there?"

"The minister also knows about this, and he has no objection!" Lu Zhengjun said.

"You probably didn't agree, did you?"

"Hehe, as long as he doesn't object, it's tantamount to acquiescing. After all, everyone is a shameless person!"

To be honest, Zhou Yang really did not expect that Lu Zhengjun could put the patent of atorvastatin under his name.

Although the thing is indeed his, the matter is of great importance. Under normal circumstances, the country will definitely be in his own hands.

Lu Zhengjun took a lot of risks in doing so, and it's fine if the higher-ups don't pursue him, but if he does, he will definitely be punished.

"Old Lu, you really don't have to do this, it's not worth it!" Zhou Yang said with some emotion.

Lu Zhengjun smiled and said: "If you donate something to the country yourself, then I will definitely not say anything more. But your medicine is what I want from you, so I can't let you Lost!"

"This thing worth hundreds of billions of dollars, you can take it out and earn foreign exchange for the country is already very good, how can we also snatch the patent right, is that still human?"

"But..."

Lu Zhengjun immediately interrupted Zhou Yang, and said with a smile: "Don't think too much about it. In fact, it might be a little worrying if it is in the hands of others, but in your hands, the Ministry is still very relieved!"

"?"

"Hehe, with your current status, you can only serve the country safely and steadily in this life. There is actually no difference between being in your name and in the company's name!" Lu Zhengjun said.

"Having said that, but still..."

"Okay, let's not talk about this, this time I have something important to talk to you about!" Lu Zhengjun said.

"What's the matter?"

"Old Yan also submitted an application to the higher-ups yesterday. He wanted to buy a bankrupt pharmaceutical factory in Hong Kong Island. Some leaders thought it was unnecessary. The minister asked me to ask for your opinion!"

Zhou Yang thought for a while, and then said: "I think Lao Yan's idea is very good. As a pharmaceutical company, it will be a matter of time before we have our own pharmaceutical factory. If there is a suitable pharmaceutical factory, it would be good to buy it!"

"I heard that it will cost at least 1000 million yuan!" Lu Zhengjun said.

"If the factory building and land belong to the pharmaceutical factory, 1000 million is nothing, and it will definitely be worth buying!" Zhou Yang said.

"Do you think you can buy it?"

"Yes!" Zhou Yang said firmly.

US$1000 million sounds like a lot, but when you think about the world’s highest housing prices on Hong Kong Island decades later, it’s not an exaggeration to say that housing prices can cost hundreds of thousands per square meter.

Now spend 1000 million to buy a pharmaceutical factory, among other things, even if you just sell the land in the future, you can make a lot of money.

More importantly, a pharmaceutical company that does not even have its own pharmaceutical factory will inevitably not make people suspicious.

Yan Gengdong obviously realized this, so he proposed to buy this pharmaceutical factory.

With Zhou Yang's support, Lu Zhengjun immediately said: "Since that's the case, I'll go back and report this matter to the minister!"

Zhou Yang nodded and said, "Lao Lu, pass on a message for me and the leaders above! Now that Lao Yan and the others are just on the right track, making money and earning foreign exchange is the second priority. The more important thing is to gain a firm foothold in Hong Kong Island first."

"Under such circumstances, don't put a curse on Lao Yan and the others, but support their development!"

Lu Zhengjun immediately said: "Okay, I will pass the message to the leaders above!"

"Ok!"

"By the way, I heard that your sister-in-law has given birth. Don't you plan to go back and visit her? If you leave, I'll take you back today by the way!"

"No, I'm going on a business trip tomorrow, let's talk about it when I come back!"

"Business trip, how many days do I have to go?"

"More than a month!"

"It's been so long, how can we contact you if we have something to do?" Lu Zhengjun said.

"You can ask the Ministry to contact the military, just ask Vice Minister Jiang of the Equipment Department, and ask them to contact me!" Zhou Yang said.

"Understood!"

Next, the two chatted about the follow-up development of the Sickle Project.

You must know that although Yan Gengdong is responsible for the implementation of this plan, Zhou Yang is actually responsible for the big planning, while Lu Zhengjun is responsible for the communication between the three parties.

Right now, the entire plan is developing very smoothly, even far exceeding the expectations of the leaders above.

With achievements, their autonomy is even greater.

Therefore, Zhou Yang felt that Yan Gengdong and the others could take a bigger step!

Fluoxetine has now opened up markets in many regions of Asia, and has also reached an agreement with Johnson & Johnson of Javelin, so it should win the European and Australian markets as quickly as possible, and South America must not be let go.

Zhou Yang is very clear that for a pharmaceutical company, best-selling drugs not only represent huge profits, but also reflect the company's innovative ability.

Once fluoxetine has been recognized by the global market, it will be easier to launch atorvastatin again.

It doesn’t even need to be specially promoted. Those pharmaceutical companies that have tasted the sweetness from fluoxetine will take the initiative to come to the door.

In addition, the progress of clinical trials of atorvastatin should be accelerated, and some unconventional means can be used when necessary to push the drug to market as soon as possible.

The reason is also simple, because besides them, the medical scientists over there are also studying this drug.

Of course, what they are studying is not atorvastatin, but it is also a statin drug, and the effect is similar to atorvastatin.

Once they are allowed to market the drug in advance, this will definitely have an impact on the listing of atorvastatin!

Of course, medicines are related to the lives of thousands of patients after all, so don't be careless!

Fortunately, Zhou Yang knew that this drug had been tested by hundreds of millions of patients, and its safety was unquestionable. Zhou Yang would not dare to do this even if he switched to other innovative drugs!

Lu Zhengjun is not a doctor, nor does he understand drug research and development, but he understands business.

After analysis, he felt that Zhou Yang's arrangement was very reasonable, and Dang even decided to convey Zhou Yang's ideas to Yan Gengdong as soon as possible, and let him promote the listing of atorvastatin as soon as possible.

The two talked about these issues for more than two hours, and the chat was not over until 03:30.

Afterwards, Lu Zhengjun was about to leave!

However, when Lu Zhengjun was about to leave, Li Youwei stopped him and asked him to wait, saying that he had something to bring back to his in-laws and sister-in-law.

Then, under Zhou Yang's stunned eyes, Li Youwei came to the vegetable garden, and picked a big bag of cucumbers, tomatoes, beans, and cabbage.

Then, I went back to the house and took a lot of cured pork ribs and cured pig heads in the house!

There are also brown sugar, white sugar and various supplements, which were given by the villagers in the village when she was in confinement.

It's too much, you can't finish it!

In addition, she has already packed the small clothes her son wore during confinement, and packed a big bag.

Lu Zhengjun and the others were envious of the messy things that filled half a car abruptly.

In Li Youwei's words, even though the in-laws are in the capital, the family is not short of money.

However, tickets are required for everything in the city, especially meat and oil, which sometimes cannot be bought with money, which is far less convenient than they are in the village.

To be honest, Zhou Yang didn't think of these things himself, so seeing this scene, Zhou Yang was really moved.

Although my daughter-in-law is a local girl in the village, she really didn't say that in this life, I must not let her down!

PS: I went to the hospital today, so the update will be later, and I will try to get Chapter 2 out before [-] o'clock!
