Chapter 225 Five Floating 62

Lin Chen and Mr. Zhan found a seat and sat down.

Zhou Rui Pharmaceutical's promotional video was played repeatedly on the big screen of the venue, and the rumbling sound spread all around through the sound.

The aerial footage swept across the Zhourui Pharmaceutical Building and landed on the corporate blue dove-shaped logo.

"We are Zhourui Pharmaceutical, committed to curing life and improving the quality of life for all human beings..."

The narration of a righteous male voice sounded, and the door of Zhou Rui Pharmaceutical's hall was opened. Following the camera, one could see the energetic employees of the pharmaceutical company. The camera keeps moving upwards, passing through the R&D laboratory. The workbench is flanked by employees in light blue dust-proof suits. The picture looks neat, orderly, bright and clean.

This reminded Lin Chen of the dirty mining area deep in the rainforest, and everything was in stark contrast.

The male voice in the promotional video continued to recite in a reciting voice: "Zhou Rui Pharmaceutical has the world's most advanced R&D team and world-class R&D capabilities. We are determined to forge ahead and invest more than 10 billion yuan in new drug research and development every year. As of June this year, A total of fifty-two new drugs have been launched..."

There are many charts on the screen, showing Zhourui Pharmaceutical's R&D investment and related R&D results.

In short, the press conference is of course also a publicity meeting for the company, and these things must be required. Lin Chen took a brief look, and felt that Zhou Rui Pharmaceutical had made some contributions over the years.

The deafening passion 丨 The corporate promotional video finally stopped after dozens of times.

Lin Chen noticed that there were some gray-haired people in the front row who were obviously accompanied by the staff of Zhou Rui Pharmaceuticals, and there were some young adults who should be the backbone of the hospital or research institute.

Lin Chen was suddenly pinched by Mr. Zhan's arm, he looked aside, Mr. Zhan, the second generation of the chemical plant, said excitedly, "Oh my God, Mr. Lin, have you seen it? Oh my god, Academician Zhang Here too!"

Lin Chen didn't know why he looked at the front row, he really couldn't see anything from the backs, but just now, among the experts in the front row, he seemed to see the doctor who asked them to come to the promotion meeting yesterday.

Like the excited Mr. Zhan, there was a commotion naturally at the scene.

No need to ask questions, Mr. Zhan took the initiative to explain in his ear: "That's Academician Zhang from the Institute of Pharmacy, Chinese Academy of Sciences! The big bull among the bulls!"

"you recognize?"

"No...I don't know..." Mr. Zhan was suddenly embarrassed, and immediately shriveled, "I...I want to go to Academician Zhang to study for a doctorate, but I didn't get...in the test."

The top experts of the Pharmaceutical Research Institute were invited to the scene to stand for a pharmaceutical company, which somewhat subverted his perception.

"Is this appropriate?" Lin Chen asked, "Will the academicians be willing to come to the business?"

Mr. Zhan hurriedly pushed him and said earnestly, "This is not a trick, Mr. Lin, please be quiet."

People around him cast a lot of eyes, so Lin Chen shut up, in this kind of place, it is obvious that if you talk too much, you will lose.

"I don't know."

"You probably don't understand these problems in the pharmaceutical industry." Mr. Zhan lowered his voice, "Look, if a new drug is to be promoted and marketed to cure patients, who will use it for whom?"

"Of course by the doctor to the patient."

"Mr. Lin, you're right... But there are many types of drugs on the market, even simple antipyretics, there are dazzling varieties, so how can doctors obtain new drug information to identify and choose a certain drug For a certain patient?"

"Doctors always have their own way of understanding..."

"Of course, but once doctors are really busy with their work, there are too many types of drugs, so one of the main ways for doctors to understand drugs is through the promotion of drug dealers. Generally, when a new drug is launched, the first thing drug dealers have to do It is a large-scale promotion activity, telling the treatment mechanism, efficacy, and results of clinical trials of this drug... The arrival of experts is of course the result of the invitation of the pharmaceutical company, but this is also the best opportunity for doctors to learn about new drugs. In fact, in the medical system The way of thinking is also very stubborn. The promotion of certain new treatment ideas and drugs sometimes takes a long time before this drug can completely replace the previous class of drugs and be accepted by people. Only if the replacement is successful can mutual benefit be truly achieved. The process of mutual benefit and ultimately benefiting the patient." Mr. Xiao Zhan said.

Lin Chen sighed lightly: "There is no big problem with what you said. After all, in essence, there is no commercialization of drugs used in patients, and there is no funding to promote a new round of research and development..."

"Mr. Lin, it's really amazing that you can think this way, at least it's different from those who think that doctors and drug dealers are colluding and have to make hard-earned money on patients. If they can’t make money, they probably won’t invest a lot of money to develop new products. For example, few people do vaccines for niche viruses. For example, Nordrum’s brain injury rehabilitation drugs, Guang Zhourui Pharma’s own The production has been updated for many generations..."

Mr. Zhan is about to start chattering again.

"Mr. Zhan." Lin Chen interrupted him.

"what did you say?"

"I said, when you talk about your expertise, you suddenly don't feel nervous."

"I...I'm not...not nervous..."

Mr. Zhan blushed, and at the same time, the lights in the venue dimmed, and some people came to the stage slowly. It was a middle-aged man with a pot belly. The middle-aged man wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and was half bald. He was the chairman of Zhou Rui Pharmaceutical.

"We welcome experts from all walks of life and friends from all walks of life to participate in the promotion conference of our new drug Nordren, a new drug from Zhourui Pharmaceuticals. A lot of things have indeed happened about Nordren's launch. Recently, Zhourui Pharmaceuticals has also conservatively questioned that the drug Nordren It is indeed ill-fated, including ourselves at one time that this drug may no longer be able to contribute to the cure of the disease. But it is an epoch-making drug after all, we are convinced of its efficacy, and it should serve all patients. Therefore, we recently A lot of efforts have been made to make it finally listed. Here, I also thank friends from all walks of life for their help.”

There was thunderous applause from the audience, and the chairman of Surrounding Pharmaceuticals did not shy away from the recent problems surrounding Nordron, but used a very understatement to pass it over.

Lin Chen calmly watched everything on the stage.

I saw the chairman wave his hand: "Okay, I won't say much nonsense, please watch Nordron's promotional video."

The big screen suddenly brightened, the configuration of a new drug appeared, and the model on the screen rotated 360 degrees.

Many people were looking at the promotional materials that were placed on each seat at the time. Mr. Zhan read it very seriously, while Lin Chen began to pay attention to the reactions of different people on and off the podium.

"The reason why Nordren is a brand-new brain science drug, it abandons the common treatment ideas of dredging and trapping, and pays more attention to neuron repair. Its active ingredients are used by me decades ago. The company's science was grown from a bacterial culture found in the soil of the Dana rainforest, and the researchers engineered and synthesized a variety of different derivatives, hoping to increase the drug's lipid solubility to cross the blood-brain barrier. Once in the brain, Nordisk Lun’s designed derivative drugs will rapidly undergo metabolic changes and become new active ingredients. The information in your hands contains relevant clinical experimental evidence, according to the relevant results...”

"Have you found anything?" Lin Chen turned his head and asked.

Mr. Zhan was stunned: "What did you find?"

Only then did Lin Chen realize that the other party was not Xing Conglian who came to investigate the case with him, but an ordinary chemical expert who wanted to restore the reputation of his father's company.

"Is Nordren really as amazing as they say?"

"Ah? Miraculous?" Mr. Zhan put down. "It's quite amazing, and the idea is very new, but... maybe it's not amazing."

Lin Chen frowned: "Isn't it a brand new idea?"

"The most novel thing about Nordren's drug is the splitting and recombination of active ingredients to pass the blood-brain barrier. The biggest role of the blood-brain barrier is to prevent compounds in the blood from entering the brain. The benefit is to prevent harmful substances from invading the brain, but Similarly, the blood-brain barrier also blocks the entry of therapeutic drugs, thereby affecting the therapeutic effect." The speech on the stage continued, while Mr. Zhan explained to him in more accessible words.

"and then?"

"Then, Nordren is actually a two-drug fixed-dose combination of Zhou Rui Pharmaceutical's predecessor cardiovascular and cerebrovascular drug tern and the anti-platelet agent ADP, tern has changed its configuration and introduced the ton component just mentioned, and reorganized it. The new drug released, this idea is very powerful, and it is indeed something I have never seen before.”

Mr. Zhan's tone was normal and relaxed, but Lin Chen froze all over.

He rubbed his eyebrows. He always felt that Mr. Zhan's remarks contained extremely important key information, but because of their lack of medical expertise, this information has been hidden in the most obvious places.

He clenched his fist and finally made up his mind.

"Come out with me." He patted Xiao Zhan on the shoulder.

"Ah, what, the meeting isn't over yet." Mr. Zhan didn't know why.

"Come out with me." Lin Chen emphasized.

The corridor of the hotel outside the venue had the unique smell of incense powder in the hotel. When they came out, they were routinely checked by the guards as usual.

Lin Chen took Mr. Zhan to walk in the corridor at will, and finally Kaiku said, "I have a question, I would like to ask you to help me analyze it."

"You...why are you so polite."

"On the stage just now, Chairman Zhou Rui talked about the difficulties of their company Nordlum before going public. What do you think of this?"

"I...I don't know..."

"I mean, do you think there's something wrong with Nordrun?"

"Have you always thought there was something wrong with Nordrun?"

Looking at Mr. Zhan's expression, Lin Chen felt that the young man probably remembered what he said yesterday when he refuted the attending doctor at the door of the MRI room.

"There should be no problem if it can pass the test of the Food and Drug Administration, and after so many phases of clinical trials, unless Zhou Rui Pharmaceutical deliberately falsifies the data, the effect is indeed there."

"What about the side effects, will Nordren have strong side effects?"

"It's hard to say about side effects. For example, Herceptin, a breast cancer treatment drug, was found to have symptoms and signs of cardiac dysfunction in patients using it in the later stages of treatment. We all say that it is a three-point drug Poison, you said that a certain drug must not have side effects, it is not very likely..."

Lin Chen listened to Xiao Zhan Xiaosheng's story quietly, and did not interrupt the young man.

"The side effects are within the controllable range, that is to say, within a certain data range, it is acceptable, and Zhou Rui Pharmaceutical is not stupid. If they knew that Nordren had strong side effects, why would they promote it? They will have to lose their underpants for any claims."

Lin Chen fell into deep thought.

They have repeatedly mentioned the problem that Xiao Zhan said. Now it seems that with all the information in the past few days, some things can be found.

First, the drug Nordrum itself should not have much problem, otherwise Zhou Rui Pharmaceutical would not promote this drug on a large scale.

Second, there were unspeakable problems within Zhourui Pharmaceuticals, so that they replaced all suppliers.

Third, as the head of R&D at Nordrun, Stankon should have discovered some things. Before she wanted to expose these things, she was killed by Shen Lian.

Fourth, Shen Lian used Duanyang to prevent Nordren from going public by fabricating lies.

But the question is, what conclusions can be drawn from this information?

Lin Chen looked at the young man beside him and asked, "If someone goes to great lengths not to let Nordron go public, what do you think is that person's motive?"

"Are you talking about... Are you talking about Zhou Rui's competitors?" Mr. Zhan asked nervously.

"Competitors?"

"Because Nordron's idea is really new, if it can be successfully promoted on a large scale, there will be no room for drugs that will run on other manufacturers' old ideas. Except for competitors, I... I can't think of anyone who would not want Nordron. What about going public?"

"But what if Zhou Rui's internal staff didn't want a certain drug to do it?"

"That may also be the competition of the internal team. For example, if the company pushes your drug, then the previous generation drug I developed will be forced to slowly withdraw from the market, or the project of the new generation drug I am developing will be cancelled... "

"Previous drugs?"

Lin Chen suddenly felt terrified: "You said just now, what is the relationship between Nordlum and Zhou Rui Pharmaceutical's previous generation of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular drugs?"

"Nordren is a new type of drug produced by reconfiguring the previous generation drug tern and adding a new ingredient ton," Mr. Xiao Zhan wondered, "what's the matter?"

"Nordren is an improvement on previous generation drugs?"

"It's more complicated than improvement, this is not a simple inheritance relationship..."
