If the medicine tastes too bitter, the paste will usually be dried first, and then put on the production line to be administered as tablets wrapped with a layer of sugar coating, such as the most common vitamin C Yinqiao tablets and Coptis Shangqing tablets.
Ye Chen took some of each of the two potions, crushed them on his fingertips, smelled them, nodded with satisfaction and said: "Both potions are very good, remember to send a red envelope to the team who worked overtime later.
"
Wei Liang breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly: "Don't worry, I will give you red envelopes when I get back..."
As he spoke, he added: "By the way, Master Ye, the cost of the medicine Gujin Xuming Powder is too high. It is all expensive medicinal materials. Just to trial-produce this piece of medicinal mud, nearly 100,000 yuan of medicinal materials were used.
..."
Ye Chen nodded and said seriously: "This kind of tonic medicine has very high requirements on the medicinal materials itself, and the cost will definitely remain high. If this kind of medicine is put on the market in the future, I am afraid it will not be as good as Angong Niuhuang."
It's like a pill, only those with money can afford it.
"
Wei Liang sighed: "This is a business law and a reality. Just like those luxury cars that easily cost millions, where the cost materials and brand value are piled up, they themselves serve the rich, and ordinary people simply don't have them.
Chance.
"
Ye Chen sighed: "It is indeed the law of business, there is nothing we can do about it.
"
With that said, Ye Chen said to Wei Liang: "Wei Liang, you should also try to make a batch of Gujin Xuming Powder and put it on the market as a high-end tonic for our Jiuxuan Pharmaceutical. As for the price,
, naturally it has to be set a little higher, the domestic retail price should be more than ten times the estimated total cost, and the overseas price should be more than twenty times.
"
"After it is produced, it can be tried on some high-end customers to see their reaction. If they have very urgent demand for this drug, the price can be raised appropriately.
"
This is not because Ye Chen is evil, but because the price of high-end medicines has a very high premium, especially high-end tonics, which are even more ridiculously expensive.
Although the popularity of Cordyceps has dropped a lot over the years, the price has not dropped at all. One gram of high-end Cordyceps is more expensive than gold.
The same is true for things like ginseng and deer antlers.
Wei Liang naturally understood this business logic very well and said to Ye Chen without hesitation: "Master Ye, don't worry, I will start making a batch of samples immediately after I return.
"
With that said, he hurriedly said: "By the way, Master Ye, I suggest that we don't make this great tonic like Gujin Xuming Powder into a medicine. It would be better to make it into a health care product. Countries around the world have strict requirements on health care products."
The censorship system is much looser, and once we position it as a health product, we can not only sell it in pharmacies, but also in supermarkets and online. In that case, the degree of freedom will be higher.
"
Ye Chen nodded: "I'll do as you say.
"
Wei Liang asked him: "Master Ye, what is the name of our health care product?"
Ye Chen thought for a while and blurted out: "Let's call it Jiuxuan Gujin Powder! The medicinal mud is thoroughly dried and powdered and made into capsules, which are marketed as high-end health care products.
"
Speaking of this, Ye Chen told him again: "But we don't want to cooperate with any pharmacies or supermarkets. After all, our products must be the best among similar products. In addition, Jiuxuan Pharmaceutical now has a lot of popularity. It is completely
There is no need to rely on other people's sales channels.
"
“Letting others sell for us will not only take away our profits, but will also bring us management risks.
"
“Just like some well-known liquors known as national liquors, dealers may raise prices in various ways, but the market is still filled with a large number of fakes, and many people mix genuine and fake products, making the market a mess.
"
"The 1,499 bottle of liquor is extremely expensive to begin with, but it turns out that it's not even available. If you want to buy it, you can only pay double the price. This unhealthy model is almost entirely caused by dealers' hype, so we just cut it off."
Distributors only do direct sales!”
"When the time comes, we will open an online flagship store and allow all users to order online. When there are more varieties in the future, we can also open direct-operated stores offline, so as to ensure stable terminal prices and eliminate fakes!
"
Wei Liang said without thinking: "Okay Master Ye, I will start working on the online official flagship store immediately!"
