Chapter 314 You Are My Treasure Boy!
Lin Ming frowned.
He came up with the price of 199 yuan after considering many factors.
Among them is arrogance!
Whether it's through what happened in the past, or through what you can predict in the future.
Lin Ming could see that Zhang Kuang was indeed not a person who cared about money.
It is true that he must use money if he wants to live.
But compared to his sudden wealth, what he cares more about is to truly cure the disease with medicine!
In the true sense, within the scope of one's own ability, we can help those patients get rid of the pain and reduce the burden caused by the pain!
in this case.
Lin Ming was also worried that Zhang Kuang thought his price was too high, which would lead to disagreements with him.
Unexpectedly, this guy actually thought that his price was low!
"Why do you say that?" Lin Ming asked.
"First of all, I would like to ask Mr. Lin, if the special cold medicine is priced now, will it remain at this price in the future, or will it increase or decrease with market changes?" Zhang Kuang said.
Lin Ming shook his head.
He really hasn't thought about this.
Given the efficacy of specific cold medicines, if the price actually changes in the future, it will only increase, not decrease.
"Mr. Lin may not have the answer to this yet, but there is no rush."
Zhang Kuang added: "Then let me talk about other things. From the establishment of Phoenix Pharmaceuticals to the present, the total investment has reached about 5 billion."
"Based on the current productivity, if the price is really 199 yuan, how long will it take Mr. Lin to recover the cost?"
"If Mr. Lin cannot recover the cost in a short period of time, then I am not sure whether Mr. Lin will continue to invest in the laboratory and conduct research and development of other drugs."
Lin Ming rolled his eyes: "You kid, when have I ever treated you badly? Just don't worry, let alone the price of 199, even if the price is 1 yuan, I won't be short of funds for your laboratory."
"I think so too, but I don't want Mr. Lin to pay for my dream. If Phoenix Pharmaceuticals' investment cannot get a corresponding return because the price is too low, then my dream will be in vain."
Zhang Kuang shook his head and said solemnly: "What Mr. Lin wants is to make money, and what I want is to help those patients. I don't think our ideas and practices will conflict, but we both need a foundation, and that is -
-money!"
"Go on," Lin Ming said with great interest.
He was very happy that Zhang Kuang had this kind of realization.
otherwise.
From now on, every time a special medicine came out, this guy would have to bargain with him for the price first. Thinking about that kind of situation gave Lin Ming a headache.
"I think it's low, but actually it's not just because Mr. Lin makes less money."
Zhang Kuang continued: "Based on normal conditions, patients with colds spend a lot of money on medicines. Those with mild symptoms may only need dozens of yuan of medicine to recover, but those with severe symptoms, such as inflammation and fever,
Many of them need to be put on suspension bottles.”
"And if you need a bottle, it will take at least three days!"
"Based on 50 yuan a day, it will cost 150 yuan for three days. If you take some other medicine, it will cost more than 200 yuan."
"The key is that they need to endure the discomfort caused by the cold for several days, but our special cold medicine can make them recover in three hours at most."
Lin Ming nodded slightly.
Who hasn't had a cold?
Of course he knows all this.
Perhaps for many people, the cold should be the mildest 'illness' they know.
But in fact, stuffy nose, runny nose, cough, etc. can also make people very uncomfortable.
Especially for those who are still young, the worsening of cold symptoms will bring them many complications, such as 'pulmonary fever'.
Compared with all the possible consequences of these colds, the price of 199 is really not high.
"The last point is also the most critical point!"
Zhang Kuang looked at Lin Ming: "I have heard a long time ago that General Manager Lin invited people from the Food and Drug Administration to discuss the price. If I guessed correctly, the price of 199 yuan should be before the negotiation, right?"
"In other words, after the Food and Drug Administration negotiates prices, will the price of special cold medicines be even lower?"
"Yeah." Lin Ming nodded.
"Then what are Mr. Lin busy with?"
Zhang Kuang immediately said: "The cost of drugs does not cost money? The factory operation does not cost money? The drug sales channel does not cost money? Has Mr. Lin not considered these?"
After these words, Lin Ming was stunned.
"well……"
Zhang Kuang sighed: "Actually, I have always known that Lin is always a kind person."
"I have seen the money you donated to Yizhou Province and the donation at Chanel's annual dinner on my mobile phone."
"But then again, if we have no money, what ability do we have to help the public in more ways?"
Lin Ming said silently: "I think the price of 199 should still be profitable."
Zhang Kuang was speechless for a while: "Mr. Lin, I had guessed what kind of high price you would set before, and even thought of many ways to bargain with you. I didn't expect that you... don't need me to do anything at all!"
"Are you still planning to fight with me?" Lin Ming's face was full of black lines.
"Anyway, I can tell you this, the cost of a special cold medicine is about 20 yuan. This is only the cost of the medicine itself, not including the factory, labor, packaging, etc."
Arrogantly said: "If you think the 199 price is feasible, then I have no objection. It's not my money anyway."
"You're a kid who can actually argue." Lin Ming snorted.
I feel like in the current situation, I am the one who is arrogant and arrogance is the boss.
However, he really didn't expect that the cost of special cold medicine would be so high.
Before doing this, he had not investigated the cost of other cold medicines.
Not to mention one pill, a box of 5 yuan costs a lot, and that includes all labor, water, electricity, channel fees and other expenses.
According to what Zhang Kuang said, the total cost of a special cold medicine would be thirty or forty, or even forty or fifty.
"Then let me think about it again. Anyway, the shape of the medicine has not been decided yet. After these are completed, it will not be too late to negotiate the price with the Food and Drug Administration." Lin Ming said.
Kuang Kuang stood up and said, "Okay, I'll go back to the laboratory first. The special athlete's foot ointment has already shown some results, and it won't take long to develop it."
"Tsk, tsk, you are really my treasure boy!"
Zhang Kuang: "..."
Before he left the office, Lin Ming's cell phone rang.
I took it out and saw that it was Chen Jia calling.
Zhang Kuang saw that Lin Ming was busy, so he consciously walked out of the office.
"Beauty Chen, do you miss me?" Lin Ming said with a smile.
"Go aside!"
Chen Jia spat.
Then he said, "Can't you come back today? It happens to be Sunday and Xuanxuan didn't go to school. She has been waiting for you to spend Christmas with her at home."
"It's so annoying!"
Lin Ming pretended to be regretful and said: "Guanyun Village is not finished yet, so I won't be able to go back until tomorrow."
Chen Jia was slightly silent.
She very much hoped that Lin Ming could come back.
But she didn't want to delay something very important to Lin Ming because of such an unimportant holiday.
"Then you come back when you're done. Wear more clothes. It's been cooling down recently so you don't catch a cold."
"good."
hang up the phone.
Lin Ming was secretly glad in his heart.
Chapter completed!
