In the Shangri-La hotel suite, Edward looked at McJoe who was standing in front of him.
"You want to go back to Johnson's laboratory to work?”
Back then, while working at Johnson Johnson, Mike had collaborated with others to develop an improved central painkiller.
After that, he spent all his assets to buy the painkiller formula from his companion and became the sole patent owner of this new painkiller.
Then, he peddled this painkiller formula everywhere and even directly rejected Johnson and Johnson. In the end, he came to the East.
Back then, Edward had also persuaded Mike that although he was Chinese, he would still be an outsider in the East. Things were not as simple as he thought.
However, Mike was unmoved, so he didn't say anything else, lest it seemed like he was stopping his student from earning money.
But what was the result?
This painkiller had not even been released to the market, but it had already been declared obsolete.
Mike Joe had also been kicked out of Tianlong Pharmaceuticals.
"Teacher, the people from Tian Long Pharmaceuticals are too evil. They actually said that this time, it was all my responsibility.”
" Therefore, I didn't pay Tianlong Pharmaceutical's shares according to the contract, but I took back the patent license for the painkiller. I'm willing to give it to Johnson Johnson for free, just so that I can go back to work.”
This time, it was a double loss for Mike and Tianlong Pharmaceuticals. The deposit of 50 million in cash that Tianlong Pharmaceuticals had previously paid could not be returned, but Mike had spent nearly 20 million to buy the rights to the formula from his partner!
Mike had spent all of his money on this. If he didn't find a good job, he wouldn't be able to live a good life for the rest of his life.
Edward shook his head." Mike, I could have helped you a week ago. At that time, you had a painkiller patent formula that Johnson Johnson was interested in.”
"But now, your formula is worthless. In addition, you were so decisive when you left earlier. It will be more difficult for you to go back.”
"Unless you can provide a great help to Johnson, I can let you go back. I can even promote your position and raise your salary.”
McJoe understood what Edward was talking about. He looked troubled."Teacher, although I have been working in the East for a period of time, it has not been long.”
"Moreover, the Tianlong Pharmaceutical Company I work for is in a competitive relationship with Xinming Pharmaceutical Company, and the relationship is very bad.”
"Right now, Tianlong Pharmaceuticals is in a mess. A new shareholder they invested in some time ago even had an argument with the company's chairman.”
"Mike, if that's the case, I can't help you." Edward looked disappointed.”
Mike was getting anxious. If the teacher didn't help him, it would be difficult for him to find a good job.
Perhaps he could go to some small pharmaceutical companies to continue his research and development work, but the salary would definitely not be as good as before.
It was not difficult to accept a change of job, but it was too difficult to accept a change of job with a lower salary.
"Teacher, I know something. I don't know if it will be of any help to you.”
"Tianlong Pharmaceuticals and Xinming Pharmaceuticals are competitors, so they know Xinming Pharmaceuticals very well. It was said that Fu Liang had developed several new clinical drugs from Xinming Pharmaceuticals.”
"But it can't be completely said that Fu Liang developed it. It should be that he discovered a new treatment direction for some drugs.”
"At present, the new drugs in the clinical trials of Xinming Pharmaceuticals are all modified from other abandoned prescriptions.”
"You're saying that their medicine is like Viagra?" Edward asked in surprise.”
Viagra was a drug that failed to be developed. Its efficacy did not meet the requirements at all, and there were some side effects.
However, after the research and development team had developed the high side effects, they added some stabilizing agents and became a new drug that could treat men's ED and set a sales record for a drug!
However, Pfizer only had one Viagra, and the inventor was a Nobel Prize winner in Physiology and Medicine.
How did Fu Liang manage to discover the application direction of several new drugs in a row and achieve success?
Many of their Johnson Johnson's research and development staff had worked for more than Fu Liang's age. How could an Eastern genius be so incredible?
However, this news did help Edward understand how he should adjust the terms of the cooperation.
No wonder when he asked President Zheng of the Ice City Pharmaceutical Group, he was told to write down how many new drugs had been developed over the years, how many new drugs were successful, how many were abandoned, and also a list of some abandoned drugs, along with the reasons for abandoning them.
At that time, he thought that the other party wanted to know about Johnson Johnson's research and development capabilities. For this reason, they deliberately wrote down some abandoned prescriptions and emphasized the number of drugs that Johnson Johnson had successfully developed.
"It seems that Mr. Little Fu wants us to develop the new drug formula that failed. Since that was the case, he would give it to him.”
Edward didn't believe that Johnson Johnson would be able to find a new and effective treatment direction in Fu Liang's hands after giving up on the new drug formula!
Johnson Johnson's annual investment in research was not a waste. Besides, it was not like they had never tried to develop other treatments for a drug.
In fact, ever since the emergence of Pfizer's Viagra, major pharmaceutical companies had reorganized the prescriptions that had stopped research and development.
Some of the side effects of some drugs were indeed surprising, but the probability of them happening was too low to be introduced to the market as a drug.
However, just in case, he still called the headquarters to report.
He asked the headquarters to check all the laboratories, including the abandoned new drug formulas of the pharmaceutical companies that had been acquired and merged.
If they didn't find any new application directions and confirmed that there was no value in continuing research and development, they would package them all together and use them as bargaining chips for cooperation with Xin Ming Pharmaceutical!
Two days later, Fu Liang's eyes lit up when he saw the new collaboration proposal from Johnson Johnson that Edward had sent over.
"Dad, it seems that Johnson Johnson understands what my additional conditions are before the other pharmaceutical companies.”
Fu Xinming also looked at the list of prescriptions listed on it. Many of them had obvious side effects.
"Son, can these be used?"
Fu Liang leaned back in his chair." Most of them definitely can't be used. The toxicity test failed. I'm afraid it'll be difficult to find other applications.”
"But there are still some toxicity tests that have no problems, but the efficacy is much lower than the expired ones. These are what I need.”
Fu Xinming looked at Fu Liang seriously." Can you really find a new treatment direction from these and successfully develop it?"”
"Dad, haven't you seen my previous results?" Fu Liang asked.”
Fu Xinming shook his head. Previously, they were all purchased from domestic pharmaceutical companies. The research and development level of many pharmaceutical companies was twenty years behind that of foreign countries. It was not surprising that you could find new application directions.”
"Johnson Johnson is the world's leading pharmaceutical company. Their research and development capabilities are also among the best in the world.”
"Forget it, so what if it's a waste? Anyway, I won't give in to any other conditions. Let's see which shareholder dares to object!”
Fu Liang looked at his father.”
