Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 2597 Push

Two days later.

Yang Xiaotao personally handed the report on cephalosporin anti-inflammatory drugs to Mr. Chen.

In the office, Mr. Chen was flipping through the report with a smile on his face, although it contained a lot of professional terms that made it difficult for him to understand.

But as long as you look at the data and the final conclusion, you will understand that this medicine really works.

"Not bad."

"This time it's a big surprise for us."

Mr. Chen put down the report and carefully placed it aside, then moved the cup of water further away.

"It's all thanks to the hard work of our comrades. I didn't expect them to finish it so quickly."

Yang Xiaotao said modestly, and Old Chen laughed, "Then you have to be careful. After hearing about this, the Ministry of Health has started asking people to find out the situation."

Yang Xiaotao curled his lips indifferently after hearing this, "They are too ungentlemanly."

"Not only did we deliver medicine to them, but they also tried to steal our employees."

"That's not righteous."

Seeing Yang Xiaotao's expression, Old Chen said unhappily, "Can't you think differently?"

"Change your thinking?"

Yang Xiaotao blinked his eyes, and then suddenly asked, "You mean, cooperate with them?"

Elder Chen nodded. "They also want to develop and improve the medical industry, but they just don't have the means to do so."

Yang Xiaotao frowned slightly and did not speak in a hurry.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao like this, Mr. Chen didn't say much.

For him, no matter who it is, as long as they can contribute to the revolution.

No matter whether he is the eldest son or the youngest son, they are all members of this family.

"Okay, let's get down to business."

Old Chen sat up straight, and Yang Xiaotao muttered to himself, wasn't what we just talked about serious matters?
But this also shows that Mr. Chen has no interest in health.

As long as the superiors are not biased, he has nothing to fear.

“How much are you producing now?”

Hearing Mr. Chen's question, Yang Xiaotao hurriedly told him the information he had obtained from the chemical plant.

"During the trial production period, the chemical plant can produce 500 kilograms of raw liquid every day. More reaction tanks will be added later to increase the output to about one ton."

"There are now three production lines in pharmaceutical factories: granules, tablets and suspensions."

"According to yesterday's data, we can make 15,000 pieces a day."

"The suspension is less, only about 3,000 bottles."

"Of course, if we work overtime at night, the output can be doubled."

Yang Xiaotao gave a brief explanation of the situation while Mr. Chen lowered his head in thought.

Ten thousand tablets, with the current packaging format of medicines, one box has two plates, one plate has six tablets, that is to say one box has twelve tablets, so the pharmaceutical factory can only make one thousand three hundred boxes.

This production is really not high, not even as high as insulin production.

As if he could see what Mr. Chen was thinking, Yang Xiaotao explained, "Commander, the equipment and personnel are ready now. The only limitation is the supply of raw materials. We are looking for manufacturers across the country."

"Once the raw material problem is solved, production will increase."

Elder Chen nodded. "This amount of production is not enough for a hospital. This won't work. You have to hurry up."

Yang Xiaotao also understood what Mr. Chen meant. If the scale could not be expanded as soon as possible, the Ministry of Health would probably have a reason to complain.

“I’ll expand it later.”

Yang Xiaotao was coping with it, but he knew in his heart that it would be difficult for Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory to increase its production in a short period of time. Firstly, there were not enough machines, and secondly, there were not enough staff.

But that doesn't mean he will give up the benefits.

Besides, even if we give it up, we have to give it to our own people.

Thinking of this, Yang Xiaotao began to think about it.

After sitting with Mr. Chen for a while, Yang Xiaotao stood up and said goodbye.

Watching the car leave the compound, a smile appeared on Old Chen's face.

"This kid, if I don't give him a push, he won't know how to run forward."

He said something inexplicably, and then said to the driver Chen Mu outside, "Prepare the car, we are going to West Garden."

On the other side, Yang Xiaotao quickly returned to the Ninth Department.

After one phone call, the meeting room of Department 9 was full of people in the afternoon.

Yang Xiaotao sat at the top, with Liu Huaimin on his left and Lao Hong on his right.

Then came Yang Youning, Chen Gong, Wang Guodong, as well as Xu Yuanshan and Bai Jingshu who came specially.

After everyone sat down, Yang Xiaotao didn't beat around the bush and directly explained the situation.

As soon as he finished speaking, discussions were heard in the meeting hall.

Bai Jingshu, who was standing aside, had an ugly look on his face.

Nothing else, it just means their production capacity problem.

But they are trying their best now.

Look at the products of pharmaceutical companies, disinfectants, hand sanitizers, health products, insulin, and so on.
At this moment, not only she, but everyone present realized a problem.

There are many good things in the pharmaceutical industry, but...
Limited scale.

Everyone was silent again.

"Now, the problem is right in front of us. Let's talk about how to solve it."

Yang Xiaotao crossed his hands on the table.

There are some things that you cannot say yourself and you have to let the person involved say it.

Moreover, he believed that no one in this room was a fool and they already had a solution in mind.

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Xu Yuanshan raised his head, glanced at everyone, and then looked at Bai Jingshu.

When Bai Jingshu saw Xu Yuanshan's look, he felt helpless.

Having too many good things in hand is not a good thing.

Easy to be remembered.

Nodding slightly, Xu Yuanshan said, "Director Yang, Secretary Liu."

"I think we can give up some of the benefits."

"This is the only way to complete production as quickly as possible and benefit the domestic people as soon as possible."

After Xu Yuanshan finished speaking, Bai Jingshu nodded and said, "Our pharmaceutical factory has no objection."

After the two men expressed their opinions, Yang Xiaotao looked at Liu Huaimin and then at Lao Hong.

Both of them had a look of approval on their faces.

Yang Xiaotao then said, "It's great that Director Xu and Director Bai can consider the overall situation."

Xu Yuanshan and Bai Jingshu felt helpless.

With today's meeting and this situation, do they have any other choice?
"However, we still have to keep our core technology in our hands."

Yang Xiaotao said again, and the two were stunned.

Yang Xiaotao then explained, "At the chemical plant, you can try to expand the scale, but don't spread the technology out, or it might backfire."

"We are responsible for producing the stock solution, and the production of the finished product will be handed over to other factories."

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, several people in the conference room nodded again.

After all, this was something they had worked hard to make, and they were unwilling to just give it away so 'selflessly'.

Besides, if they were intercepted by the enemy, wouldn’t they become the enemy’s nemesis?

That's why they chose to agree.

"Then tell me, who should we find to cooperate with?"

Yang Xiaotao asked.

Several people remained silent.

"Let me talk first."

Xu Yuanshan spoke again, "The best partner is actually the Ministry of Health mentioned by Mr. Chen."

Yang Xiaotao glanced at the other person and nodded in his heart.

Mr. Chen would not bring up this matter for no reason. Now that I think about it, he was trying to give him a hint.

As soon as Xu Yuanshan finished speaking, Yang Youning added, "Of course, we can, but we can't just listen to them!"

"I see..."

At this point, Yang Youning looked around at everyone and said, "I think we can get in touch with each other first to see what their attitude is!"

Chen Gong nodded after hearing this, "Old Yang is right!"

"We are doing a good thing, but we can't end up being the bad guys."

Then everyone looked at Yang Xiaotao.

"Okay, then let Lao Yang do this!"

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Yang Youning opened his mouth. He had just returned and hadn't had a rest yet.

But seeing the eyes of the people around him, Yang Youning gave up struggling. It was obvious that his "unemployment" during this period was "envied" by these people.

"Okay, I'll go talk to them!"

Yang Youning did not refuse, as he just came back to find some work to do.

“The next one is still about expansion.”

Yang Xiaotao spoke again, "The pharmaceutical and chemical factories should make plans in advance so that they won't be unable to operate at a critical moment. I think we can try to open branch factories and allocate some of the production capacity."

Bai Jingshu nodded and said, "We already have plans in this regard. We are preparing to open a branch factory in Quancheng. There is a pharmaceutical factory there that is in a difficult situation, but we are still negotiating."

"Quancheng."

Yang Xiaotao said this softly, but he knew in his heart that the Bai family had many industries in Quancheng.

Especially before and after the Republic of China, the water there was very deep.

But since Bai Jingshu dared to take it out, he was not afraid of any trouble.

Anyway, the quality control is still sound. If they really want to make trouble, don't blame him for executing Ma Su with tears.

"Quancheng has convenient transportation and a medical industry base. As long as we can take it over and reorganize it, we can put it into use."

Bai Jingshu explained, feeling even more confident.

In fact, when bovine insulin was developed, there were calls for it.

Now, the emergence of anti-inflammatory drugs has directly pushed Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory to the throne of the country's number one pharmaceutical factory.

Moreover, as time goes by, more and more drugs will enter the domestic market, and the brand of Red Star Pharmaceutical will become more famous and its position will become more stable.

The meeting went smoothly. After everyone finished discussing business matters, they began to imagine the future.

Yang Youning talked about what happened in Jinling, and then talked about the league he was preparing for.

"Old Yang, you've attracted quite a lot of attention by leading the women's volleyball team around."

Xu Yuanshan laughed and Yang Youning raised his head proudly, "Let me tell you, when these girls were in Jinling, wherever they went, many people would rush forward and ask for their autographs."

"So lively?"

Bai Jingshu was surprised, and Yang Youning nodded immediately, "Where we were staying, when they found out that we were Olympic champions, the local leaders of the guesthouse directly provided free breakfast."

"This is still normal. Some enthusiastic people, upon hearing that I won the small life, came to my residence one by one to give me all kinds of things. Eggs, pork, buns, flatbreads, etc. They were really enthusiastic."

After Yang Youning finished speaking, everyone listened and laughed while sighing with emotion.

That’s Jinling.

"When is our competition here?"

Liu Huaimin changed the subject and asked.

"It's scheduled for this Sunday, starting at nine in the morning."

"In two days, the Changan Heavy Industry team will come to adapt to the venue. Old Chen, please help take care of them."

Chen Gong nodded immediately after hearing this, "Don't worry, we will win in an honest way and won't use any tricks."

Yang Youning smiled, and then talked about what he saw and heard during this trip, and everyone listened with great interest.

At the same time, news that Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory had produced a new anti-inflammatory drug quickly spread throughout the country.

The newspaper even used a large amount of space to describe the process of developing the new drug, and also used a photo of the chemical plant laboratory on the front page.

The People's Daily even used the eight characters "No. 1 in China, Made in Red Star!" as the headline on the front page.

Red Star Manufacturing, which already had a good reputation in the country, instantly became a household name with the promotion of People's Daily and radio.

In the following days, the Nine Departments received letters from all over the country, most of which were letters of thanks.

This is also a characteristic of this era.

Whenever something is achieved, some young people with progressive ideas will use this method to express their inner gratitude, or express their inner yearning, or express their ambitions.

In short, this kind of thank-you letter is just like the comments posted online in later generations.

There are all kinds.

This was not the first time that Jiubu had received such a letter, and he had always ignored it in the past.

But after Yang Xiaotao learned about this situation, he set up a special "customer service" team.

The job of the team members is to open the letter, take a look, and reply to the writer if there is no problem.

The content of the reply does not need to be too long, but you should tell the other party that we have received the letter, we are grateful for it, and we will consider the opinions.
Just as this news was flying around, drugs produced by pharmaceutical factories also began to enter major hospitals.

The largest number of cases was found in the Ninth Hospital, which also led to a surge in the number of patients entering the hospital for treatment.

At the same time, with the publicity of patients who recovered after using anti-inflammatory drugs, anti-inflammatory drugs immediately became a must-have for households. People came to buy the drugs in an endless stream, so much so that hospitals could only issue orders and people could only buy the drugs based on doctors' prescriptions.

Even so, the drugs produced are not enough for hospitals to use.

At the gate of West Garden, Mr. Chen got out of the car, looked up at the sun, and sneezed violently.

Secretary Guo stood by and asked with concern, "Chief, are you okay?"

Old Chen shook his head and rubbed his nose. "It's okay. The weather changes so fast today. I can't get used to it for a while. I'll be fine after some sun."

As he spoke, the man had already walked inside.

When the guards along the way saw Mr. Chen coming, they hurriedly saluted respectfully.

"Xiaolong, is the chief in the office?"

When Tong Xiaolong came out to greet him, Mr. Chen stepped forward to ask.

"No, the chief is playing ball in the activity room."

Mr. Chen nodded, then walked along the corridor towards the activity room.

At this time, in the activity room, the old man and the elder sister were holding table tennis rackets and hitting the ball continuously.

Tang Mingyue and her son Xingxing were keeping track of the scores.

At this time, the score was 3 to 9, with the old man at home leading.

Falling behind by a large margin.

"Old Chen is here, let's stop for now."

Seeing Mr. Chen coming, the old man grabbed the ping-pong ball, put down the racket, and thought in his heart that the savior came at the right time.

I neglected my football skills during this period and now I am no match for my opponent.

When the elder sister saw Mr. Chen coming, she naturally put down her racket and said, "Mr. Chen is here, it's just right for lunch."

After saying that, he carried Xingxing out of the activity room.

"Grandma won, that's awesome."

When Xingxing was leaving, he called out, and the old man immediately pulled Chen Lao to the globe nearby.

This is a large globe with a diameter of one meter, on which various regions, mountains, and rivers are clearly depicted.

"Commander, your health is getting better and better."

Mr. Chen joked on the side.

The thin old man laughed and said, "You know what, my body has become much stronger now. I eat more and sleep better now."

“This is a good thing.”

"Let's not talk about this. I came here to tell you about what's going on here."

As he spoke, the old man turned the globe and pointed his finger at the Black Continent.

Old Chen looked in the direction of the finger, a thoughtful look on his face.

After a long while, he looked at the old man and said, "Commander, do you want to win them over?"

The old man nodded gently, "Yes, if we want to have more say in the future, we need them to stand behind us."

“Even if you don’t support it, you have to not oppose it.”

The old man said this, with a wise look in his eyes.

That position was won by the blood of countless martyrs and the hard work of countless revolutionary patriots.

That position belongs to the people.

Those who usurp power cannot sit still in peace.

“We are already working on this now.”

The old man said affirmatively, "But this is far from enough."

"We need to give it a push and deepen this relationship a little bit."

Old Chen frowned slightly, thinking in his mind how to give it a push.

Suddenly, thinking of the joy on the old man's face when he came to report last time, he immediately asked, "Chief, are you talking about the medicine this time?"

The thin old man clapped his hands and smiled, "Yes, that's what I mean."

Mr. Chen understood, then he put his hands behind his back and smiled softly, "But our current production is not even enough for our own use."

The old man waved his hand and said, "Then produce more."

Then he looked at Mr. Chen and said, "You have to give that kid a push. Some things can't be done by yourself alone. You have to unite. Only by uniting the majority can you go further and further."

Chen Lao smiled and said, "Commander, I think you can do more good than I can."

"Me? No, no, the county magistrate is better off managing it now. You have to come."

Hearing this, Mr. Chen was speechless.

But he knew in his heart that if it were someone else, he would not give such advice.

His eyes swept over Tang Mingyue, and Old Chen understood.
