"Through the pill you provided, Dr. Lister and I have analyzed several properties so far, but there are only two of them that can be transformed and produced, one is to restore physical strength, and the other is to resist hunger.
Based on the two characteristics that have been analyzed, we conducted experiments to find substitute substances, and then developed these two new drugs."
Dr. Smith explained and handed a box to Li Chuan.
Li Chuan took the box. There were two pills, one blue and one green:
"How is the effect generally?"
"After testing, the blue new drug for restoring physical strength can allow a normal adult man to instantly recover half of his physical strength after exhaustion, and can be taken again after an interval of three hours.
Among them, the effect will be worse for people who are stronger, and the effect will be better for people who are weaker, but the interval between taking medicine will also be shorter for people who are stronger, and the interval between taking medicine will be longer for people who are weaker."
Dr. Smith first pointed at the blue pill and introduced it.
Li Chuan nodded:
"This means that strong bodybuilders who are exhausted may not be able to recover half of their energy after taking it, maybe only one-third or one-fourth, but they can take it again without waiting for three hours.
And some people with poor health, like old men or children, may recover more than half of their physical strength instantly after taking it, or even completely recover their physical strength immediately, but it will take five or six hours before they can take it, is that what you mean?"
"Yes, if it is specific, we will continue to test it and come up with a detailed and complete data sheet."
Dr. Smith picked up the green pill and continued:
"A green anti-hunger pill. A normal adult man can take one pill without eating for a whole day. He can take up to three pills at a time.
Likewise, there will be slight deviations depending on the body shape of the user."
"Great, how much does two pills cost approximately?"
Li Chuan closed the box and placed it on the table.
The cost of pills will affect the profit from subsequent sales. If the cost is too high to make a profit, then there is no need to produce it.
Dr. Smith raised his head proudly:
"Don't worry, if the cost is too high, I won't say the experiment is successful. The average production cost of one blue pill is only 1 solon, while the cost of green pills is even lower, only half a solon.
"
"Very good, the cost is much lower than Dali Pill!"
When Dr. Smith quoted the original price, Li Chuan suddenly smiled.
Sauron is the currency of Sokovia. The value of one Sauron is about the same as one domestic dollar. The previous production cost of Dali Pill was five Sauron.
However, Daliwan takes a high-end route, with the price of one pill being as high as one thousand solons, and the profit is also quite high.
One thousand yuan for a pill sounds very expensive, but there is no shortage of rich people in this world. In order to regain their glory and maintain their health, many people will buy it, let alone one thousand yuan, even ten thousand yuan.
And not only the rich, but also some people from the middle and lower bourgeoisie can afford to spend one or two thousand to buy two pills from time to time.
It was also the 200 times profit of Dali Pill that made the Lee Group rise from third-rate to first-rate again.
"Long-term use of Dali Pills can improve physical strength, and the ingredients used are much better. The blue and green pills are only temporarily effective, so the ingredients used are quite different."
Dr. Smith explained the reason in one sentence.
"The blue pills can be used together with Dali Pills, and the price is as high as 500. The green pills are sold at a low price, just one piece. They don't make much money. The main thing is to build the name of the Li Group more quickly."
Looking at the two small pills on the table, Li Chuan already had a plan in mind.
Dali Pill and Blue Pill continue to take the high-end route. Dali Pill and Blue Pill are both powerful and long-lasting. Those middle-aged and elderly company bosses will definitely like it.
As for green anti-hunger pills, there is no need to sell them at a high price, because this is not a war era, and most people have a good living standard and cannot even afford to eat.
The function of green pills is only needed by those who really live in poverty. The purpose of selling them at low prices is to do charity and continue to establish his character as a philanthropist.
Don't underestimate this character. As long as he has an excellent reputation in the eyes of the public, the government will have to weigh his influence if it wants to move him.
One dollar can feed you for a day, and how many poor people can be saved.
And as long as you start measuring up, you can actually make some money. After all, if many low-income people need to save money, it is common to occasionally use this method to save a period of time.
Specifically, it will still have to be left to Jack, who is responsible for publicity and sales. This is the idea, but it is best to leave professional matters to professionals.
"Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Smith. If you need anything, you can contact Uncle Li. The Hydra organization that kidnapped you is very large. You can't leave the base and move freely until I deal with them."
Based on Lister's confession, the person who wanted the formula for Dali Pill was a Hydra leader named John Garrett, who was revealed to be an important Level 8 agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.
The Hydra base in Sokovia was bombed, and Hydra will definitely investigate. If Dr. Smith, who was originally tied up at the base, returns home safely and continues to work at the Lee Group.
It won't be long before Hydra agents will definitely come to your door again.
So three days after the Sokovia base was bombed, he reported his disappearance to the police in Sokovia, and pretended to use all his contacts to find traces of Dr. Smith.
It gives the illusion that Smith was kidnapped by Hydra.
Of course, that John Garrett who wants to match Daliwan will definitely cause trouble for him in the end, but at least in his eyes, Li Chuan is just an ordinary wealthy businessman.
And it’s not the entire Hydra that wants the formula for Dali Pill, it’s just the forces on John Garrett’s side.
"I understand, it's okay. If you hadn't come to save me, I might be dead now. Besides, I quite like doing research now without being disturbed."
Dr. Smith waved his hand, obviously not caring about the life of being unable to go out.
"I would also like to ask you to keep an eye on Dr. Lister for me and don't let him cause any trouble."
When Dr. Smith was about to leave, Li Chuan thought for a moment and gave another warning.
Dr. Lister was forced to join the group by him, and he must be unwilling to do so, so he had to take precautions.
But he is not SHIELD, and he will not treat Lister like Zola. Lister does not have any freedom here, and he is not a trustworthy member.
He is just a prisoner, but Li Chuan needs to use his research ability, so he is given better food and accommodation conditions than a prisoner.
Maybe when Liszt is no longer useful to him and no longer a threat, he will consider letting him go.
