Starting a health care product factory was originally an idea of Cao Weidong. When he invited Mr. Shao to join the company, he did not mention dividends or equity.
Mr. Shao didn’t ask either.
He is optimistic about Cao Weidong.
And he knows that Cao Weidong will not cheat him.
So we started working together.
But now that the company's products are out, some things need to be agreed in advance.
After all, brothers have to settle accounts openly.
Being vague at this time is actually laying the groundwork for the future.
Mr. Shao nodded secretly.
He knew he was right.
Cao Weidong's behavior made him feel more reliable.
So several people added up.
.......
The equipment of Shouzhengtang Health Products Factory was purchased by Cao Weidong.
During the product research period, he also paid the Chinese medicine and employee salaries.
Maximum investment.
Therefore, it holds the highest shareholding.
It was finally determined that the shareholding was 65%, and he was the executive chairman and general manager of the company.
Mr. Shao provided the factory building to open up channels for selling and purchasing traditional Chinese medicines in the mainland. Calculated based on contribution, he holds 25% of the shares.
The other 10% of the shares were allocated to Mr. Zhong and his apprentices.
Mr. Zhong didn't expect that he had a part in this, so he quickly waved his hand and refused, saying that he was just a part-time worker, and he was satisfied with his salary every month, and he couldn't take any more shares.
Cao Weidong said with a smile.
"If you hadn't always provided me with the recipe for the Three Immortals Wine, we still wouldn't have been able to develop this thing. I've made the decision. This is considered a technical investment by you."
"In addition, we have to continue to research new products in the future, and we have to rely on you."
Mr. Zhong held Cao Weidong gratefully and thanked him repeatedly.
Cao Weidong sets the tone again.
"At the end of the year, after excluding R&D, sales, public relations, and necessary expenses, the remaining income will be distributed as dividends according to this ratio."
No one had any objections, and the matter was settled.
Next, Cao Weidong proposed to conduct clinical trials of Sanxian Oral Liquid to test whether it is safe, whether there are any sequelae, etc.
Mr. Shao frowned and advised.
"Weidong, what we are selling is not a drug. We are conducting clinical trials, so why not just start selling it?"
He knows about drug clinical trials.
Generally speaking, drug clinical trials refer to any systematic study of drugs conducted on humans (patients or healthy volunteers) to confirm or discover the clinical, pharmacological or other pharmacodynamic effects, adverse reactions or absorption of the test drug.
, distribution, metabolism and excretion, the purpose is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the experimental drug.
Drug clinical trials are generally divided into four to five phases.
Each issue focuses on a different direction.
Aiming to confirm the safety of the drug to the greatest extent.
In 1938, the amendment to the Food, Drugs and Cosmetics Act promoted by Yingjiang mentioned drug management and clinical trials.
In the following decades, various countries also proposed similar provisions.
In the 1980s, the drug clinical trial system has gradually become more standardized and improved. Although Mr. Shao is not involved in the pharmaceutical industry, he still knows something about it.
Has he heard that clinical trials are a long-term process, covering tolerance, safety, evaluation, sequelae, etc.
This whole process is completed.
It can take anywhere from six to seven years to more than ten years or even longer. It requires a long period of time and massive capital investment.
Moreover, once a clinical trial fails, the money, time and energy invested will be wasted.
But Cao Weidong's attitude is very firm.
"Since we are going to do it, we must comply with regulations and standards. There must be no deception and we can make money in an upright manner."
His vision is far-sighted.
Chinese people have had the concept of health care since ancient times.
Such as "you get what you eat", "food and medicine come from the same source", "traditional Chinese medicine" and so on.
This provides good soil for the popularity of health care products.
But at the same time, the positioning of health care products is also very embarrassing - medicine is not medicine, food is not food - growing wildly in the middle zone.
It has to be said that the health care product industry is a hugely profitable, chaotic, and mixed industry.
From early placebo health products such as starch plus calcium tablets, to Cordyceps sinensis containing excessive heavy metals, Ganoderma lucidum containing plasticizers, etc., to irregular publicity behaviors such as exaggerated efficacy and false propaganda, all of which have tarnished the image of health products.
Black.
Although the bosses who make health care products have made a lot of money by relying on deception and false propaganda.
But in the end, weren’t they liquidated one by one?
Those who go in will go in, those who go bankrupt will go bankrupt, and few will end well.
So God is watching what people do.
Cheating and abduction are unacceptable.
The health care products produced by Cao Weidong can be priced at a high price.
But there must be “real materials”.
Mr. Shao and Mr. Zhong thought about it and agreed with Cao Weidong's idea.
Mr. Shao thought for a while, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he said.
"I know the person in charge of a pharmaceutical company, and I heard him say that their company has long-term cooperation with a foreign laboratory to provide them with clinical trials and other services. We can cooperate with them."
Cao Weidong said happily.
"This is the best."
Without further ado.
Mr. Shao found the pharmaceutical company friend he knew on the spot, made inquiries several times, and finally contacted the laboratory that cooperated with the pharmaceutical company.
The laboratory is also happy to accept this private job.
Anyway, it is just a health product and the risk is not high, so after comprehensive consideration, I gave a reasonably suitable price and said that I could provide a certificate.
The two parties hit it off and agreed to conduct clinical trials on tolerability and safety first. After passing the clinical trials, they would start selling health products and then make follow-up arrangements.
After all, health products are not medicines, and the requirements are not that strict. If the first two phases of clinical trials are successful, they can be sold according to the current regulations in Hong Kong.
After negotiating the contract and paying the remuneration, Cao Weidong thought of another thing.
"Mr. Shao, we cannot wait during this period. On the one hand, we must develop new health care products, and on the other hand, we must continue to produce Sanxian Oral Liquid. Both of these require traditional Chinese medicine."
"Before, you said you would arrange for people to go to the mainland for purchasing. How is it now?"
Mr. Shao said cheerfully.
"Don't worry, I have already made arrangements. If everything goes well, there will be news back in a few days."
........
The sources of traditional Chinese medicine, except for some artificial products, are mainly derived from natural animals, plants and minerals.
As early as in "Shen Nong's Materia Medica Preface", there is a discussion on the selection of the origin of medicines: "Born from the soil, the authenticity and authenticity are kept new".
Therefore, whether the origin of traditional Chinese medicine is suitable has a very important impact on the quality of the medicinal materials.
China has a vast territory, stretching thousands of miles across, with complex natural geographical conditions and different ecological environments. Therefore, the production of natural Chinese medicinal materials is mostly regional, and the place of production is closely related to its output and quality.
After long-term use, observation and comparison, ancient medical scientists observed that even the medicinal materials that are widely distributed have different quality due to different natural conditions, and gradually formed the concept of "authentic medicinal materials". The formation of authentic medicinal materials is related to many factors such as the origin, variety, and quality of the medicinal materials, and clinical efficacy is the key factor.
For example, coptis, chuanxiong, and aconite from Sichuan, mint and atractylodes from Jiangsu, amomum villosum from Guangdong, ginseng, asarum, and schisandra from Northeast China, Poria cocos from Yunnan, rehmannia glutinosa from Henan, and donkey-hide gelatin from Shandong are all famous authentic medicinal materials.
, praised by people.
The target of the people sent by Mr. Shao this time is the vast and abundant Northeast.
