Chapter 580 - 579: Prices Differ by 10 Times
(This is a previous Chapter, two Chapters were posted, the first one was blocked, after some modifications, it’s being reposted.)Many people in Hua Country are discussing.
Qin Yun did not attend the press conference, he was watching through video at the moment.
Is the "Anticancer Agent" production capacity insufficient?
That’s a joke. Celestial Fortune can produce tens of millions of "Anticancer Agent" every month, and over a year can produce over a hundred million, how could the production capacity be insufficient?
However, with so much said, next we’ll see how much technological blockade can be broken with the export of the "Anticancer Agent".
Qin Yun also hopes to export as soon as possible because the foreign market is also large!
Domestically, he sells one "Anticancer Agent" for two hundred thousand, as for abroad...
Qin Yun revealed a slight smile, indicating that the price would definitely be more than that.
Some medications that are very cheap abroad are sold in Hua Country at prices increased by several times, Qin Yun plans to learn from this!
...
The press conference held by Celestial Fortune Medical Research Institute regarding the "Anticancer Agent" ended quickly, and Celestial Fortune did not answer many questions. They only mentioned that at noon, major hospitals would start treatment one by one and that people could register first.
Two hundred hospitals in Su Province and Wan Province also stated that they would prioritize treating those with late-stage cancer based on their conditions, giving everyone a chance at a cure.
There was excitement domestically, while abroad they kept cursing.
"Celestial Fortune actually won’t sell the Anticancer Agent to us!"
"This is too much!"
Voices full of anger appeared in comment sections in the United States and other countries.
Aside from those cursing, of course, the more rational ones understood the core reason why Celestial Fortune wasn’t selling to them.
"I hope the authorities can solve this issue." They thought to themselves.
The United States imposes various technological blockades on the outside, not just its own, but also restricts other countries. Now Hua Country is beginning to retaliate with cancer treatment.
Next is negotiation, to see each other’s demands and conditions.
As for the final result of the negotiations, it’s obvious.
The "Anticancer Agent" will inevitably circulate abroad.
In the meantime, the "Anticancer Agent" is swiftly treating late-stage cancer patients domestically, and in the afternoon, Celestial Fortune announced that in addition to Su Province and Wan Province, two more provincial capitals were added, and two hundred pilot hospitals were added, totaling four hundred hospitals establishing "Anticancer Agent" treatment areas.
This news made people in Hua Country very excited, while those abroad cursed even more.
Just in the morning, it was said that it was hard to produce the "Anticancer Agent", and by the afternoon, so many treatment areas were announced; are you just playing around?
In this regard, Celestial Fortune did not provide any explanation.
The foreign market side waited for seven days, and after seven days, the "Anticancer Agent" could finally flow into the overseas market.
However, its price was two million per dose!
As soon as this news spread, abroad hadn’t even celebrated for a few minutes before another outcry followed.
"Do they really think we’re fools?"
"Selling to people in Hua Country for two hundred thousand per dose, and to us for two million! The price is directly increased tenfold!"
...
People keep cursing, and in response, Celestial Fortune’s explanation is that each country’s market is different, and there are also tariffs and other fees when exporting, plus the production capacity of the "Anticancer Agent" is limited and the quantity is scarce, making it a bit difficult to supply Hua Country. Naturally, it cannot be the same price when exporting abroad as it is domestically.
In the end, Celestial Fortune also added that this way of raising prices is similar to the United States, where a certain medication is priced at this amount in the US market, but when sold to Hua Country, the price is another amount.
Why the price increase in between, please find your own reasons for it.
Celestial Fortune’s rationale is quite similar to those reasons.
With the last sentence said, all those who were cursing were left speechless.
Indeed, such situations are common, where cheap things abroad turn into luxury goods when sold domestically.
Although there is a lot of dissatisfaction in people’s hearts, when the "Anticancer Agent" was transported abroad, the number of people applying for treatment in a short time was unknown.
Their words are tough, but their hearts are honest,.
...
"President Qin, we have now produced nearly a million doses of the Anticancer Agent, of which 600,000 people domestically have used it, and 100,000 abroad..."
Qin Xiaotao handed over the information in his hand and reported.
Domestically, 600,000 people, each dose of "Anticancer Agent" priced at two hundred thousand, that means twelve billion in earnings!
Abroad, 100,000 people, each dose of "Anticancer Agent" priced at two million, that means two trillion in earnings!
In total, in just over a week, Qin Yun’s Anticancer Agent has already earned him over three trillion! What a colossal fortune!
He has sold clothes for so long, along with shampoo and everything else combined, yet it doesn’t compare to the income from just a few days of the "Anticancer Agent".
This is truly an expensive and monopolistic drug!
Qin Yun felt joy in his heart: "At this rate, in no more than a month, my Wealth System balance will reach one trillion!"
To upgrade the Wealth System to level five requires a balance of one trillion, which previously seemed incredibly difficult to Qin Yun, but how long has it been since the Wealth System reached level four?
Not even half a year has passed, not even a year!
In such a short time, Qin Yun already feels that his Wealth System is about to upgrade again!
"If it reaches level five..." Qin Yun’s eyes were full of anticipation.
Currently, he can get one level four Wealth Gathering Array per month, but after the system upgrades again...
He can get one level five Wealth Gathering Array and two level four Wealth Gathering Arrays!
If the level five is not used, and all are converted to level four, it means he will have seven level four Wealth Gathering Arrays!
Under the coverage of these level four Wealth Gathering Arrays, his research institute battery, even cancer research, has made significant breakthroughs!
It is imaginable that the role of the level five Wealth Gathering Array is even more terrifying!
Qin Yun is eagerly anticipating. In terms of technology, Hua Country has an advantage over some countries in some aspects, but also faces suppression in many areas, with the most typical being semiconductor chips!
Hua Country’s semiconductor chips lag decades behind, this is not just talk.
Moreover, in the area of diseases, besides cancer, there are various other difficult-to-cure diseases worldwide, and with the Wealth Gathering Array’s assistance, there’s a full opportunity to conquer them!
While accumulating wealth with the Wealth Gathering Array, Qin Yun is also thinking about helping others.
Money is already enough for him; in fact, Qin Yun now has no more feelings for it.
Currently, helping Hua Country achieve technological breakthroughs and conquering various diseases has instead become Qin Yun’s pursuit.
...
Next, more and more people are using the "Anticancer Agent," and the wealth Qin Yun accumulates keeps increasing.
He also contracted kitchens in hundreds of mountain villages and sponsored over a hundred impoverished students.
At this time, Celestial Fortune has really grown into a massive entity.
And two weeks later, Qin Yun held a meeting with many senior leaders of Celestial Fortune.
Scanning the crowd present, Qin Yun said: "Now the Anticancer Agent is in use, but there are still many who can’t afford it. We’re now establishing the Anticancer Agent Charity Plan, selecting a certain number of people each month as charity recipients, allowing them to use the Anticancer Agent for free."
Celestial Fortune has done a lot of charity work now, and it’s entirely possible to set aside a small portion of these Anticancer Agents specifically for charitable purposes.
"Anticancer Agent Charity Plan?"
"This plan is completely feasible."
Upon hearing Qin Yun’s words, everyone present nodded.
"President Qin."
Qin Xiaotao raised a question, "How do we choose these charity recipients? Should we select directly from various places?"
The number of people applying to use the "Anticancer Agent" is nearly a billion in Hua Country, making such a large-scale selection a challenging task.
Therefore, Qin Xiaotao suggested choosing aid recipients from one province initially, then selecting another province for the second batch of charity recipients, significantly reducing the effort while enhancing efficiency.
Qin Yun pondered briefly and said: "The first batch of charity recipients should be selected from Jiangyuan University and family members of our Celestial Fortune employees. If students’ family members from Jiangyuan University and employees’ family members from Celestial Fortune have cancer and have financial difficulties, then they should be aided."
People have their own inclinations too, even when it comes to helping, Qin Yun would choose to help those related to him first.
