Chapter 1 I am not the god of medicine.(1/2)
With a flash of white light, Chen Fang disappeared into the world of home-cooked food, and when he opened his eyes, he found himself on the streets of Shanghai.
It's still very early, probably around 2002, and Chen's age in the real world is only ten years old here.
But this is the world of film and television, and it is not affected at all.
Recalling the words of the "villain" Zhang Changlin in the TV series, "There is only one disease in the world that cannot be cured, and that is the disease of poverty."
This sentence was so realistic that it deeply touched Chen Fang. In short, he felt very complicated.
Chen Fang's character in this world is still called Chen Fang. It should be a fictional character in the movie. Originally, he was not in this world.
Haha, now that we are here, let’s start making trouble.
He felt that there was no money on his body, so Chen Fang took out a 100-gram gold bar, which he had to exchange for some money.
When he came to a store that said gold recycling, Chen Fang walked straight in. These days were different from later generations.
The price of gold reached 420 per gram when it was aged, and I don’t know what the price is now.
"Hello, sir, what do you need?" A clerk came up and asked.
"I see you can recycle gold here, right? How much does it cost per gram today?"
Chen Fang said directly without any ink marks.
"Sir, today's gold price is 60 yuan per gram." The clerk said with a smile. She was telling the truth. The international gold price is 65 yuan per gram. Their store still has to make money, right?
"60 dollars?"
Chen Fang was stunned for a moment, he never expected the price to be so low, then he frowned slightly and said.
"Can I use this computer?"
"OK."
The clerk seemed to know what Chen Fang was going to do, and he was just checking the price.
Ten minutes later, Chen Fang also learned about the international gold price, which was 65 yuan per gram. In other words, this was basically the normal price. It seemed that selling gold to pay back the money was not feasible.
In other words, the currency in this world is not very valuable yet, tsk tsk, then think about the concept of a bottle of medicine costing more than 30,000 yuan a month.
This is better than robbery. The robbery at least has to use weapons to make you pay for it. The drug dealer may even give you life-saving medicine to make you buy it.
It's okay if you don't buy it, just wait for death. It's more awesome than robbery.
After exchanging more than 30,000 yuan in cash, Chen Fang left the gold shop. It was considered that he had the starting capital in this world. It was really easy to manage these days.
Damn it, you don’t even need to register when selling gold. It doesn’t matter how many people want it anyway, how you got the gold.
While walking on the road, Chen Fang was thinking, this pharmaceutical company does need to bear a lot of costs to develop new drugs, but in the drug Glenin, Novavax obviously did not invest that much, but it is still the most expensive in the Chinese market.
As Chen Fang walked, he came to the gate of a hospital, where people were crowding around to protest against the Nova Company people.
This should be the beginning of the film. Chen Fang looked at it thoughtfully. According to this, Lu Yiyi was also in it?
This is one of the main characters in the movie. He is a patient with chronic myelogenous leukemia and needs to take a drug called "Glenin" for a long time.
It is because of him that the protagonist Cheng Yong embarks on the road of selling counterfeit medicines. Of course, Cheng Yong also has his own purpose. Cheng Yong is just for money.
Later, Lu Yiyi died because he ran out of medicine. This shocked Cheng Yong so much that he decided to bring the medicine to the patient for free, and even gave part of it to the patient.
Chen Fang also walked in without hesitation. Looking at this group of vulnerable groups protesting, was the protest really useful?
This industry is basically a seller's market, and it cannot be solved by protesting. The best way is to defeat magic with magic. If an alternative drug appears, Glenin will be finished.
Soon Chen Fang spotted Lu Yiyi in the crowd, mainly because this man was so eye-catching. Even though he was wearing a mask, Chen Fang still recognized him.
People in the protesting crowd were doing all sorts of things, throwing things and swearing, but the Novavax representatives ignored them at all.
Perhaps the group of people in front of them are like the lambs of their pharmaceutical company, they can be killed at any time, otherwise how can their pharmaceutical company survive?
The medical representatives patted their butts and left. Although the protesting crowd knew that there would be no results, what could they do?
After the crowd dispersed, Lu Yiyi wanted to leave, but there was a person in front of him who blocked him. It was Chen Fang.
What Lu Yiyi was sure of was that he didn't know Chen Fang and didn't understand why Chen Fang was stopping him.
"Who are you?"
"Let me meet you, my name is Chen Fang."
Chen Fang stretched out his right hand and said.
"Hello, I am Lu Yiyi."
He doesn't understand what he wants to do, but he needs basic courtesy. You can't be polite, right?
"Lu Yiyi, your protest like this is useless. It will only be useful if the interests of these pharmaceutical companies are harmed."
Chen Fang said something meaningful.
"ah?"
Lu Yiyi can understand what this means.
"Let's go, find a place to sit, and I'll treat you to Xiao Long Bao."
Lu Yiyi didn't know what happened, but unexpectedly followed Chen Fang up. Feeling that Chen Fang had some magical power, Lu Yiyi followed him directly.
When he came to a Xiaolongbao shop, Lu Yiyi sat down in a daze. He wanted to know what Chen Fang did.
After the steamed buns arrived, Chen Fang ate them happily. Looking at the delicious steamed buns, Lu Yiyi also had an appetite and no longer wanted to eat them together.
That's why Cheng Yong said in the movie that this guy is not a patient at all. He has such a good appetite. It seems that the leukemia is not directly related to appetite.
When they were almost done eating, Chen Fang looked at Lu Yiyi and asked.
"You are a leukemia patient, right?"
"Yes, how did you know?"
"Didn't you just protest against the high price of Gleevec? And you were always wearing a mask."
"Well, it's true. I've had this disease for many years, and now I can't even afford Gleevec..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Lu Yiyi said that it felt lifeless here, as if he was waiting to die. If the children and wife were not still there, he might as well die.
At least this is not the first time Lu Yiyi has had such thoughts.
"Then have you heard of Asan's version of Gleevec?"
Chen Fang smiled and said.
"What, you know this too?"
Lu Yiyi's face was full of disbelief. He originally thought that he was the only one who knew this. Recently, he wanted to find someone to see if he could bring some back from Asan Kingdom.
"Of course, a bottle of domestic genuine medicine costs 40,000 yuan, while a pirated version only costs 2,000 yuan, and the effect is exactly the same. What do you think?"
Chen Fang said with a smile.
"You, you, do you have channels?"
Lu Yiyi asked nervously. He had nothing to do with anything else. Even though he guessed that Chen Fang might be a drug dealer, the price of two thousand yuan made him forget everything.
Even if he was walking on the edge of the law, there was nothing he could do. He had to survive.
Chen Fang shook his head and then said.
"Not now, but I will have the medicine soon. Can you help sell it then?"
"You want me to help sell the medicine together? Of course you can. I have checked that the medicine has the same effect as the genuine medicine. It will definitely be sold in China."
Lu Yiyi began to brag. This was his hope for survival. Chen Fang had to make Chen Fang feel that he could make a fortune selling medicine before he would do it.
Otherwise, why would anyone else do this?
"Okay, that's enough. What's your phone number?"
Chen Fang asked.
"I...I...don't have a mobile phone yet, but I have a phone at home."
These days are not the same as in the future. Mobile phones are a luxury item, and Lu Yiyi doesn't have one. However, he does have a telephone at home, a landline.
"Okay, then take me to where you live later. I'll rent a house first, and then go to Asan Kingdom..."
Chen Fang probably has a plan in mind. Gold is not very valuable in this world, so he should make the first pot of gold by selling medicine, and then see what happens next.
As for the original protagonist Cheng Yong, Chen Fang is not interested at all. His life has nothing to do with him. Chen Fang is still very optimistic about the supporting characters in this drama.
"Okay, I'll take you there."
Lu Yiyi doesn't ask so many questions now. He just thinks that Chen Fang can really bring back the medicine. Even if he can't bring it back, he won't lose. Lu Yiyi has nothing to lose.
After the two finished eating the steamed buns, Lu Yiyi took Chen Fang to a dilapidated community. This can be seen at any time in the time and space of 2002, and the current Magic City is still very backward.
Not wanting the future to be so bright, Lu Yiyi rented a house with Chen Fang, and then planned a trip to Asan Kingdom.
"Um...Mr. Chen, do you want me to pay a deposit?"
Lu Yiyi asked cautiously. He was still a little cautious. After all, this was a large amount of money. If Chen Fang really wanted a deposit.
It was difficult for him to deal with it. Firstly, this was his hope of survival, and secondly, what if Chen Fang was a liar.
To be continued...
