Chapter 674: Sky-high price drug

The next day, Ye Hao woke up in his apartment, and the whole day started with washing and cooking.
"It feels different when a man is at home. You don't need to eat instant noodles for breakfast." Song Xiaoyue sat in a chair excitedly, eating the hearty breakfast in front of her.
"I can hear it. I don't think it tastes good, right?"
Song Ying walked down the stairs, she still likes to wear that matching, black and white uniform with black silk.
Although it hasn't changed, it's so enduring in Ye Hao's eyes.
Feeling the look that looked like a hungry wolf, Song Ying knew who it was without much thinking.
She supported others without paying attention, and threw it over.
Ye Hao smiled and turned his head, drinking milk and watching TV.
"Where are Xueyao and Qianyi, where are the others?" Song Ying had breakfast, and she had to admit that the man's breakfast was so delicious no matter how many times she ate.
"They have eaten well and went out. It seems that something happened recently. Xiaoxiao is still sleeping, this slacker will pull her off directly after a while. Sister Yawen is also going out." Ye Hao stared at Song Ying eating with an arc light.
Because of Song Xiaoyue's illness, Song Ying found an opportunity to move in some time ago. After all, there are many rooms in the remodeled apartment, and it's okay to have two more people.
And Ye Hao is also happy to live under the same roof with Song Ying.
[It’s the morning news time of Haicheng. First of all, I will introduce you to the main content of this program]
[Xiangdu Economy has developed rapidly due to several newly established government-supported projects in recent months. The stock index has risen by more than 20%, and the domestic stock index has continued to rise]
[Several non-governmental forces in the Middle East have exchanged fire in recent times, and all parties are still negotiating]
[The high-priced drugs in Jiangnan area are further fermented, and nearly 100,000 patients have gathered to local governments to request the government to issue policies]
During this period of time, Ye Hao didn't watch the news very much, and felt that a lot of things happened all over the world, and it hardly stopped for a moment.
"Right. Xueyao and Qianyi went out so early for that sky-high price medicine." Song Ying said while eating the buns and pointing to the TV.
"High-priced medicine?" Ye Hao looked at Song Ying puzzled.
Song Ying briefly told Ye Hao about this matter. It turned out to be a kind of bone cancer, which is very difficult to treat, and there is a possibility of multiple recurrences during surgery. However, in the past few years, an international pharmaceutical giant company developed a drug that can alleviate this condition and even make the patient life-long. No recurrence, prolong the life of the patient, but need to end
Take it by yourself.
This is good news for the majority of patients, but what I did not expect is that the price of a bottle of this medicine is as high as 100,000 yuan!
And if you take it according to the amount, you need to eat one bottle a month, which means that it will be nearly one million a year!
Ordinary families simply can't afford it. To survive, they can only sell houses and borrow money everywhere, dragging down the whole family.
At the beginning, most people just endured it, but this endurance has its limits.
Until recently, a R&D staff member of the company suddenly broke out inside information. The total research and development cost of this drug was one billion US dollars and took five years.
But after the drug came out, in just three or four years, the company has already made a profit of 100 billion U.S. dollars from this drug!
According to the International Drug Patent Protection Law, the patent protection period for these drugs is 20 years. If the company's current fees are used, it will earn one hundred billion in three or four years, and at least $500 billion in twenty years!
The net profit is five hundred times higher than the cost!
This is completely beyond the range that the people can bear. When this news came out, people in most parts of the world were boiled and strongly protested against this unreasonably expensive medicine.
People in the medical industry in many countries protested to the United Nations against this unreasonable pricing.
But this company completely ignored it, because there is no other drug in the market that can replace it, and if a country openly allows the emergence of generic drugs, then the country will be pushed into the limelight by public opinion, which is likely to result in a number of international medicines. Companies are blacklisted and new drugs are banned.
This is the way the pharmaceutical giants have always taken.
So so far, several countries can only negotiate with that company, but that company's attitude is still very strong, and the price will not be lowered within the patent period.
"Five hundred times the net profit. This company is really making money out of conscience." Ye Hao sneered at the TV screen.
At the moment, news about the drug was broadcast on the TV screen.
It is an agent of the company in the Jiangnan area, wearing a suit and a kind smile on his face.
"The price of our medicines is absolutely reasonable. So please trust us not to buy those fake medicines. We cannot guarantee the ingredients of the fake medicines. If something happens, it will be a disaster for the patient."
"The price is obviously unreasonable. Although medicine is a lucrative industry, it is understandable to make money. But it is five hundred times the profit, which is simply counting money with eyes closed." Song Xiaoyue was also indignant.
"Okay. We can't take care of these things. Hurry up and eat. After dinner, I will go to school with you."
Zhao Yanting came out of the bathroom and urged Song Xiaoyue and Ye Hao.
"Sister Ting, help me ask for a two-day vacation." Ye Hao picked up the computer next to him and began to tap on his fingers.
"What are you doing. How long have you been absent from class, you..." Zhao Yanting walked to Ye Hao, just about to scold him.
But I saw that Ye Hao's computer screen was full of information about that sky-high price drug.
Zhao Yanting had an idea in her mind, could it be that he...
Impossible, no matter how powerful this kind of thing he can't intervene.
"Okay. I'll just give you a few days. It's mid-April, and the college entrance examination is about 50 days away. Don't make any trouble for me." Zhao Yanting still agreed to Ye Hao for some reason.
Perhaps in her heart she also hoped that the thought she had just now was true, and this man was full of miracles.
After that, Song Ying and others left one after another.
Ye Hao was the only one left in the apartment.
He stared at the screen stubbornly, the information on it had changed from a sky-high price drug to that of bone cancer, and a smile was drawn from the corner of his mouth.
[System task: To quell this time of astronomical drug controversy. Reward: a random lucky draw package. 】
There have been a lot of prize draws recently.
Ye Hao glanced at the name of the international pharmaceutical company.
It is an international pharmaceutical company in the United States and one of the giants of international pharmaceutical companies, Ci De.
Ye Hao looked at this company and found that there is nothing wrong with making money. It is understandable that you spend money on drug research and development to make some money, but it is too ugly.
Five hundred times?
Don't blame me for giving you a salary draw.
