After being fired, I became the light of medicine

Chapter 90: Can I just brag about being a role model of the times? (asking for monthly votes)
The high-level decision of the National Health Commission began to go through internal procedures.

However, for a meeting of this level, it is impossible for society to get any news about it until it is proactively disclosed.

Therefore,
While the top brass was quietly applying for a series of commendations for Zhang Yang, everything remained calm online and in reality, and "Acofenac" was progressing normally towards the final approval of the Phase III clinical trial.

Twenty days later, Qingshan Pharmaceutical's "Acofenprovir" Phase III clinical trial successfully passed the review, which also means that as long as it passes the production inspection and obtains the production approval, it can be officially put on the market for sale.

"Abrocitinib" is a tablet, which is the type with the lowest technical difficulty and the most mature production process in the pharmaceutical industry. However, Zhang Yang still outsourced the production to his long-term partner "Lotus Pharmaceuticals".

Gradually, as the final stage of production approval was approaching, more and more news appeared on the Internet about Qingshan Pharmaceutical's "Acofenfovir" about to be launched on the market.

Among them, the most heatedly discussed topic, which is also the topic of greatest concern to all hepatitis B patients, is the final price of "Abrocitinib".

"If you ask me, 'Ekofovir' should cost at least 2000 yuan per box, and two boxes will cost about 2 yuan to cure the disease. The medicine for treating hepatitis C next door costs 5800 yuan in total for three months to cure the disease, so 'Ekofovir' should cost about the same."

"Yeah, I have the same opinion. I can accept four or five thousand. After all, seeing a doctor now costs hundreds or even thousands."

"I think four or five thousand is a bit expensive. There are tens of millions of people suffering from this disease across the country. The government should be able to control the price!"

"Haha, don't worry about the price. Hepatitis B can be cured by spending money. I have woken up laughing in my dreams these days."

"That's true, but we hepatitis B patients are really suffering. I heard that Qingshan Pharmaceutical's medicine prices are very affordable. Their 'Qingshan Afa Tablets' cost less than 200 yuan after medical insurance reimbursement!"

"I've heard about this, too. Their drug sells for thousands of dollars abroad, but only a few hundred in China. Many patients are thanking their boss Zhang Yang online!"

Du Xiaojian was scrolling through the comments on Weibo while eating the newly arrived Longjiang pork trotter rice in his dormitory.

He is not a hepatitis B patient, nor does he have any relatives suffering from hepatitis B. He is just a bored college student.

Recently, I have come across many news reports about "Afovir" on the Internet. The media have touted it as "the pride of Chinese medicine" and "the only drug in the world that can cure hepatitis B."

Out of curiosity, he learned a little about "Abrocitinib" and Tsingshan Pharmaceutical.

Looking at the comments in front of him, he couldn't help but put down his chopsticks and pointed out:
"The two guys above are too optimistic. 'Qingshan Afa Tablets' are cheap because they are long-term medications, but Qingshan Pharmaceutical's drugs for curing aplastic anemia are not cheap. The entire course of treatment costs tens of thousands of dollars."

"According to Qingshan Pharmaceutical's price, this hepatitis B drug should cost at least five or six thousand!"

After typing these two sentences, he felt a little unsatisfied and added:

"But making money is not bad. Mr. Zhang also needs to eat."

Finally, seeing the latest comments appear in the Weibo topic, he continued to eat with satisfaction.

After a while, the comment "Mr. Zhang also needs to eat" received several likes, which made him feel even better.

I finally finished my takeaway and wiped the grease off my mouth. Just as I was about to throw the takeaway box into the trash can, several APP notifications suddenly popped up on my phone screen.

He glanced at it out of the corner of his eye and was suddenly stunned.

The APP notification that popped up on the screen read:

Official news: The hepatitis B cure drug "Afovir" will be distributed to patients free of charge.

Free distribution?

After a moment, he hurriedly clicked in.

The source of the news is a screenshot of the official website of the National Health Commission, that is to say!

This is real!

He took a breath in surprise. As far as he could remember, there were only two kinds of medicines that were distributed free of charge in China:
One is a drug for treating tuberculosis, and the other is a drug for treating AIDS.

Both diseases are highly contagious and have a high mortality rate. I didn’t expect that the country would provide free vaccinations for hepatitis B, an “old infectious disease” that has existed for decades and has a large number of patients.

It's incredible.

Du Xiaojian was a little confused while thinking, and at this moment, a "ding ding" message alert sound suddenly came from his mobile phone again.

He originally thought it was a WeChat message, but the next second he realized that it was an unusual text message notification tone. The text message notification on the top of the screen flashed by, and he only saw that it was a message from number 10000.

Skillfully open the text message...

"Fuck!"

Du Xiaojian suddenly shuddered and got goose bumps all over his body. He saw the text message saying:

[Publicity Department: Awarded the title of "Model of the Times" to Comrade Zhang Yang of Qingshan Pharmaceutical, commending his outstanding contributions in "conquering hepatitis B" and "supporting medical insurance funds", and calling on everyone in society to learn from him. ]

Model of the times!

Du Xiaojian opened his mouth in shock. As a college student, he was very aware of the importance of being a “model of the times”!

Not to mention the state personally commending him!

The point is!
The three telecommunications companies, China Telecom, China Mobile and China Unicom, sent indiscriminate text messages of praise to 17 billion mobile phone users across the country!
what is this?
This is the country’s recognition, honor, and even more of a recognition!

hiss!
Thinking of this,

With his sharp mind as a college student, he recalled the announcement about free distribution of hepatitis B drugs issued a few minutes ago and linked it to the "Role Model of the Times".

Next second,
He looked at the comment on his phone that mocked Mr. Zhang Yang and suddenly slapped himself.

"Damn it, can I really just brag about being a role model of the times?"

……

the other side,
Shenzhen Stock Exchange, Hon Hai Electronics Factory.

Zhou Zeping had already completed the two-month Phase III clinical trial and returned to the Hon Hai Electronics Factory.

Fortunately, he was selected into the trial group and was successfully cured and tested negative.

On this day, he was busy in the production workshop when the boss Xu Kun suddenly walked in hurriedly.

"Xiao Zhou, didn't you say last time that you took a photo with the boss of Qingshan Pharmaceutical when you returned to Rongcheng to test the drug?"

Zhou Zeping nodded in surprise.

At that time, Zhang Yang came to the clinical trial center in person to inform everyone of the final results. After receiving the news that the test results had turned negative, he excitedly asked to take a photo with Mr. Zhang Yang to remember this memorable moment.

"Um, what's up, boss?"

"The guy taking the photo with you is not called Zhang Yang?"

"Yes."

"That's right!"

Xu Kun suddenly became excited.

"A role model of our time... please send me the picture quickly. I want to post it on my Moments to show off. This is the closest I've ever been to being called a 'role model of our time'!"

“A role model of the times?”

Xu Kun nodded excitedly:

"Hurry up and check the text messages on your phone!"

"Praise him by name, send a message to all mobile phones across the country, and call on the people of the country to learn from him. This is such an honorable thing!"

"If I had that one time, it would be worth it even if I died!"
