Chapter 634
Pfizer Pharmaceuticals Headquarters.
Chen Shuqin and Chen Xia came here for a friendly visit today, and Pfizer's senior management welcomed his arrival very much.
After all, these are the two gods of wealth.
Just a few quad therapy drugs have allowed Pfizer to earn billions every year, and with the large-scale promotion of the therapy, annual sales of over 10 billion is not a dream.
Don’t forget that although Pfizer ranked first in the bad country at this time, it was not the company that had assets worth hundreds of billions of dollars in later generations, and billions of dollars were enough to match half of their company.
If you can make so much money a year, let alone a small welcome banquet, it will be fine to ask these chairman and presidents to kneel down and call them dad.
In capital society, money is the first priority.
Of course, one day Chen Xia is in trouble, Pfizer probably won’t mind taking a few steps. There are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.
Just while visiting Pfizer's laboratory, Vice President Marcia suddenly pulled Chen Shuqin and Chen Xia into a room.
"Chen, I got a confidential message. Lilai Pharmaceutical seems to be preparing to produce fog sucks for treating asthma."
Chen Xia raised his eyebrows, "No, he has applied for a patent for all the fog-sucking potions in the space hospital. It is absolutely impossible for a fish that misses the net. Where did Lilai Pharmaceutical come from the original medicine?
"Macia, is the information you received accurate? Are there any detailed information?"
Marcia took a box from her assistant, and there were a few potions inside, obviously she was ready.
"Chen, this is a sample of potion we obtained through special channels. After our testing, the ingredients inside are exactly the same as the fog-absorbing drugs developed by your company, and even the ingredients content ratio is the same."
Chen Shuqin immediately reacted: "Is Lilai Pharmaceutical planning to infringe on our patent?"
Marcia nodded,
"We are very sure that they infringed our patents, but the problem is that our drugs have not yet been launched. If they can pass the FDA's review and market, there will be a lawsuit."
Chen Xia was a little puzzled. They clearly owned a patent, so why is it very troublesome to sue?
“Macia, what are the general procedures if we file a lawsuit?”
Marcia has consulted a lawyer and is of course very clear about the process and consequences.
"First of all, we have to find a third party to test it to prove that the drug infringes our patent, but they also have ways to avoid it, such as increasing or decreasing several raw materials and proportions, so that it can be said that this is their own original drug to apply for a patent.
Here’s the trouble, because our drugs have not yet been launched. Once the pharmaceutical company comes first, it will give people the impression that they will first take over. How can they infringe on the patent that will be launched first? This will easily gain public support.
Another key point is that this is a new drug that has never been seen before. It is difficult for those neutral testing laboratories, or pharmacists to determine whether the two drugs belong to the same category of patents?
These points combined, coupled with the disputes between bad country judicial countries, there is no end to the lawsuit in less than three or five years. Whether we can win is a question. We Pfizer has a consortium, and they also have consortium support behind them, and even Washington has a certain relationship."
Chen Shuqin frowned and said, "As you say that, we have no way to do them?"
When Macia pushed her glasses, she felt unwilling to give in her eyes.
She is a senior official who actively advocates cooperating with Pumpkin Vine Company. If the mist sucking potion can be successfully put into production and promote it and generate benefits for the company, then her career can be further improved.
Now that I suddenly came to the company, I was really disgusting to her.
If it were other small companies, Pfizer or Pfizer's capital would have killed them long ago.
But Lilai Pharmaceutical is also one of the top three pharmaceutical giants in the moldy country. It is not something that anyone can kill if they want to pinch it, which makes it a headache.
Chen Xia didn't know much about Lilai Pharmaceuticals, so he asked, "What medicines do pharmaceuticals mainly produce here? How many pharmaceutical factories and laboratories are there now?"
Marcia blurted out:
"Lilai Pharmaceuticals mainly produces insulin and biological agents, followed by oral diabetes drugs. Their headquarters are in Polis, Indiana, and the laboratory and research center are located at their headquarters."
Chen Xia nodded and asked again: "How valuable is their laboratory?"
Marcia was a little moved:
"Biologics rely very much on experiments. As long as the products studied are of great commercial value, the research center of Lilai Pharmaceuticals is their core department, and the security is very strict in normal times."
Strictly? Haha, Chen Xia hummed in his nose.
If Chen Shuqin and Marcia were still considering how to take judicial paths, Chen Xia was thinking about how to use her golden fingers to teach them a lesson.
Meanwhile, in Lilai Pharmaceutical's headquarters.
President Svift is reporting to Chairman Paulke, with bottles of potions on the table.
"Chairman, these drugs are all drugs we have copied in reverse, slightly changed some raw material formulas. Now we have applied for clinical trials with the FDA, and patent applications are also in progress."
Paulke picked up a few drugs and asked with a smile: "How effective is it? How different is it from the original drug of PV company?"
Svift smiled:
"The efficacy is exactly the same. After all, this is actually the same medicine. However, after Pfizer Pharmaceuticals finds out, it may file a patent lawsuit."
Paulke waved his hand indifferently:
"This lawsuit cannot be completed in a few years. These years are enough for us to squeeze out their atomization potion. They have patent costs, but we don't, so we implemented a low-price strategy from the beginning.
By then, the products of the two companies will be the same, and our company will be at a lower price. Those greedy insurance companies will definitely recommend that hospitals use our products.
After we occupy the market, the drugs can be completely renewed. Whether to infringe on the rights is simply a confused lawsuit.”
Like the puppet army, Svift gave a thumbs up: "Gao, it's indeed high, and the chairman's strategy is very high."
Hahaha, the old man obviously takes this kind of flattery very much.
The history of Lilai Pharmaceutical's fortune was not very glorious. You can think of it. A company specializing in the production of biological agents has sufficient ability to produce some white powders or some illusion agents.
Yes, they made their fortunes through this.
So for such a company with no bottom line, they won’t tell you any laws, rules, and morals. For them, as long as they can make money, they can do whatever they want.
Chapter completed!
