Hong Kong variety show: Building a century-old family, starting with Hung Hing
Chapter 157 Robber Mindset
This means that from now on, there will never be another person in the world paralyzed due to a comminuted fracture.
Just as the whole world was in an uproar.
Xinghe Group held a press conference regarding Xinghe Hospital.
The press conference was held directly in front of Xinghe Hospital in Xinghe Bay.
Currently, Xinghe Hospital is not completely finished, but it is almost complete, with only some finishing touches remaining.
The area in front of the door had already been tidied up.
The press conference will be held on June 18th at 8:6 AM.
As a result, before 8 o'clock, or even before 7 o'clock, media from all over the world flocked to the scene.
This time, at the press conference, Jiang Tiansheng asked Le Huizhen to be the host of Xinwei's press conference.
"Welcome everyone to the Xinghe Group press conference. Now, let's welcome Mr. Jiang Tiansheng, Chairman of Xinghe Group, and Mr. Zhang Guangyao, President of Xinghe Hospital." At eight o'clock, Le Huizhen stood on the stage and applauded first after speaking.
A round of applause immediately erupted from the audience.
The fact that reporters from hundreds of media outlets, newspapers, and magazines have gathered here speaks volumes about the success of Xinghe Hospital.
Amidst applause, Jiang Tiansheng stepped onto the stage, followed by Zhang Guangyao.
As the two stepped onto the stage, the applause from the audience grew even more intense.
After going on stage, at Jiang Tiansheng's suggestion, Zhang Guangyao stepped forward, took the microphone, and spoke eloquently about various things related to the hospital's development.
Many technical terms are completely unfamiliar to outsiders like Jiang Tiansheng.
"Okay, let's move on to the interview segment." Yue Huizhen controlled the press conference's flow.
"Now, let's welcome this reporter from ATV to ask a question," said Lok Wai-ching, looking at the audience with a smile.
As the host, Lok Wai-ching naturally wanted to give the first question to one of her own people.
In addition, this is Hong Kong, so the first question will definitely be asked by the Hong Kong media. After considering all the options, Di Yun is definitely the most suitable.
"Hello Mr. Jiang, I am Di Yun, a reporter from ATV." Di Yun stood up, his face slightly flushed, but his gaze was firm as he looked at Jiang Tiansheng.
"Hello, Miss Di Yun."
Jiang Tiansheng held the microphone and nodded slightly to Di Yun.
Today, Di Yun is wearing a red suit, giving off a different kind of wild beauty.
No one else wearing this red suit would give you the same stunning impression as Di Yunlai.
Seeing that the two seemed to have just met and were not familiar with each other, Yue Huizhen chuckled inwardly.
I couldn't help but recall the way Di Yun and Jiang Tiansheng kissed inside the building.
"Mr. Jiang, first of all, congratulations on your group's successful development of the anti-cancer injection." Di Yun looked at Jiang Tiansheng and said sincerely, then added, "I would like to ask Mr. Jiang, during the research and development process, you must have spent a lot of money, manpower and resources."
Clearly, this topic was something the two of them had already decided on long ago.
Without increasing R&D costs, how can we raise drug prices next?
"Yes, that's right."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Tiansheng said with a serious expression, "The research and development process is full of all sorts of possibilities and difficulties, which I won't go into detail about. Just the research and development funding alone has already exceeded one hundred billion US dollars..."
Anyone can talk big.
As for where you got hundreds of billions of US dollars?
Why do you care if I have it or not?
If I say it exists, then it exists. Otherwise, how could the drug be developed?
"To date, the cost of each anti-cancer injection remains as high as $80 per dose."
As soon as Jiang Tiansheng finished speaking, a murmur of surprise and astonishment erupted from the audience.
They knew the drug wouldn't be cheap, but the price of $80 per dose still shocked everyone.
"Moreover, the production of anti-cancer injections and Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment is also low, with a maximum of 100 doses produced per day."
First it was expensive, now production is low, which immediately sparked a flurry of discussion among the reporters below.
"Hello Mr. Jiang, I'm Jim Chester, a reporter from The New York Times." Jim Chester stood up, looked at Jiang Tiansheng, and asked, "Mr. Jiang, would you consider disclosing the formulas for the anti-cancer injection and the Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment?"
"Jim Chester, is that right?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Tiansheng looked at the other person.
"Yes, Mr. Jiang."
Jim Chester nodded in agreement.
“If you or the New York Times behind you are willing to offer $2000 billion, I am willing to share the formulas for the anti-cancer injections and the Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment,” Jiang Tiansheng said earnestly to Jim Chester.
"This……"
Jim Chester froze on the spot upon hearing this, realizing that he had asked a very stupid question.
Are you kidding me? The other party invested so much money in developing the drug, and you expect them to give it away for free?
Do you think those hedgehogs you fooled are the ones who got crippled?
Even if someone could come up with 2000 billion, they wouldn't do it, because Jiang Tiansheng made it very clear.
If someone can come up with two hundred billion US dollars, he will release the formula worldwide.
Who would be so generous as to spend two hundred billion US dollars themselves and then let the whole world benefit from it?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
Unless Jiang Tiansheng is willing to sell the formula for 2000 billion US dollars, perhaps someone will be willing to pay for it.
“Mr. Jiang, please don’t pay any attention to that idiot reporter from the New York Times.” Just then, Arnold Rodney stood up and said, “Hello Mr. Jiang, my name is Arnold Rodney, and I’m a reporter for Newsweek.”
"My question is, Mr. Jiang, what are the pricing plans for the anti-cancer injections and the Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment after the hospital opens?" Arnold Rodney asked, looking at Jiang Tiansheng with a serious expression.
Everyone present was watching Jiang Tiansheng intently.
After all, this is something that concerns people all over the world.
"I can answer that question for you."
As Jiang Tiansheng spoke, he looked at Arnold Rodney and said, "Whether it's an anti-cancer injection or a Black Jade Broken Heart Ointment, the price is set at 100 million US dollars."
One million US dollars?
The price stunned everyone when it was announced.
It's expensive, really too expensive.
This price, even in later generations, would definitely not be cheap, let alone at this time.
However, so many people around the world get cancer, and many of them are wealthy.
What is a million dollars to a rich person?
Based on current production levels, at most one dose of anticancer injections can be produced per year.
Moreover, this is not a single anti-cancer injection that can cure one patient; it can be as many as five or as few as three.
Of course, in the initial stages, only one is needed.
If we calculate based on an average of 3 doses, the maximum number of patients that can be treated per year is [number missing].
In comparison, nearly ten million new cancer cases are diagnosed globally each year.
It's only one in a thousand, and that's just the new additions. If we add the previous ones as well...
It's safe to say that out of the more than seven billion people in the world today, the number of people suffering from cancer has already exceeded one hundred million. As for the exact number, who can know?
At that time, let alone a million US dollars, even if the price is higher, those rich people will not hesitate to spend it.
As long as I can survive, nothing else matters.
"Hello Mr. Jiang, my name is Robert Vito, and I'm a reporter for Time magazine." Robert Vito stood up, took a deep breath, looked at Jiang Tiansheng, and said.
“Mr. Jiang, I understand you very well. After all, the development cost of drugs is very high, and the cost of each injection is also very high. However, there are already over 100 million cancer patients worldwide. Most of these people are poor. Can Mr. Jiang bear to watch them die without treatment?”
Robert Vito's speech was deafening.
"Mr. Robert Vito, reporter for Time magazine, then tell me, what should I do?" Jiang Tiansheng looked at the other party's compassionate expression and knew what he was up to.
"Why doesn't Mr. Jiang join hands with the world to benefit all mankind?" Robert Vito asked, looking at Jiang Tiansheng.
"Why don't you just tell me directly and let me disclose the drug's formula? Why beat around the bush like this?" Jiang Tiansheng sneered, looking at Robert Vito.
Do you really think the other party is some kind of compassionate saint?
“Mr. Jiang, I know it’s impolite of me to say this, but for the sake of all humanity, only by publishing the formula can the whole world join in the research and development, and perhaps that’s the only way to reduce the cost of the drug…” Robert Vito looked at Jiang Tiansheng and continued to press on.
“Sure, no problem. I’ll say it again: if you or Time magazine behind you are willing to spend $2000 billion, I can release the formula.” Jiang Tiansheng looked at Robert Vito and sneered.
“Mr. Jiang, your request is utterly unreasonable…” Robert Vito looked at Jiang Tiansheng with a righteous expression: “The development of pharmaceuticals…”
"The expenses are your own business, Galaxy Group. Why are you trying to shift the burden onto me and Time Magazine? Your thinking is downright robbery."
"So, according to your logic, if you want me to reveal the formula, wouldn't that be robbery thinking?" Jiang Tiansheng looked at the other party and asked directly.
"No, this is for all of humanity."
Robert Vito spoke with an air of righteous indignation.
Hey!
If this weren't a global press conference, Jiang Tiansheng would have shot the other person dead.
Damn, they've morally blackmailed themselves.
“Mr. Robert Vito, since you’re so noble, come back and discuss this issue with me after you’ve convinced the US and Russia to give up nuclear weapons.” Jiang Tiansheng looked at Robert Vito and said calmly, “Compared to cancer, I think nuclear weapons are more important for the peace and security of all mankind. Don’t you agree?”
"I……"
Robert Vito was about to continue speaking when he was immediately replaced by a different reporter, specifically by Lok Wai-ching.
“Hello Mr. Jiang, I am Harry Black, a reporter from ABC Broadcasting. I would like to ask how patients will be admitted after Xinghe Hospital officially opens?” Harry Black looked at Jiang Tiansheng and asked.
"That's exactly what I wanted to say."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Tiansheng's expression turned serious, and he said, "After Xinghe Hospital opens, the order of treatment will be arranged according to the time when patients pay their fees."
