Chapter 377 Two Difficult Choices About Life

Finally, amidst applause, Wu Hao finished his speech. In fact, he didn't say much, he just imagined the future development direction of the Biology and Life Science Research Center with everyone, and boosted everyone's morale.

As for other things, he didn't go into details. In fact, the establishment of this biological and life science research center was very low-key. There was not even a ribbon-cutting closing ceremony. It was just such an inaugural meeting.

The reason for doing this is partly to reduce the attention of the outside world. Although this can't be hidden from people with good intentions, it can at least reduce the excessive "understanding" of them by the outside people.

Another point is to keep a low profile. As a rookie who has just stepped into this field, there is no need to make it so well-known, let's talk about it after making some achievements.

In fact, he had already had an idea about the establishment of a biological and life science research center, but he had been hesitant. On the one hand, the company has been established for a relatively short time and has expanded relatively quickly. At this stage, it is not appropriate to enter some industries that are not good at or do not understand.

On the other hand, Wu Hao also knows that in the future, biology and life sciences will be the key areas of human research, and they are also popular areas.

After all, for humans with better and better living standards, nothing is more important than health. Therefore, in the future, life science research and the development of practical medical technology will be hot fields. Not to mention anything else, let's just talk about a new drug. Although the investment is relatively large, the benefits are also amazing. The price of some cancer drugs is extremely high, and some even cost tens of thousands of dollars per box. This is not counting the endless other treatments.

In this area, our country has been lagging behind in the world. Such key drugs and medical technologies are monopolized by foreign biomedical giants, and we spend a lot of foreign exchange on imports every year.

However, not everyone can afford the high cost of medicine. Although the country and society have made a lot of efforts, they have solved many problems. However, the price of some long-term medications is still very expensive. Even if the medical insurance covers part of it, some patients still cannot afford it.

Not to mention those drugs that are too expensive to be covered by medical insurance. It's not that I don't want to be included, but that I can't be included. The price of these drugs is too expensive. If they are included, this will make the medical insurance fund that is already unable to make ends meet even worse.

In fact, the drug itself is cheap to manufacture. The real reason for its high price is not its production and raw material costs, but its research and development costs.

The cost of developing a drug is very high, which not only requires a lot of manpower and material resources, but also takes a lot of time. The development cycle of a drug is as short as three to four years,

More than ten years, this is not considered a field experiment, this series itself is an astronomical figure.

If a company spends such a high price to develop a drug, it will naturally use this drug to obtain income and make up for the cost of research and development. Therefore, it is actually very difficult for drug research and development companies. On the one hand, they have to bear the high cost of drug research and development, and on the other hand, they have to bear the condemnation and irrational attacks of public opinion.

It stands to reason that companies invent drugs to save patients' lives, and patients should be grateful. But before life, before the strong desire to survive, these become worthless. Even these companies have become targets of attacks by patients and a punching bag for public condemnation.

Of course, drug research and development companies are also companies, and the meaning of a company's existence is to make profits. There is nothing wrong with selling the "products" that I have worked so hard to develop. How to sell and at what price is the freedom of the enterprise. Of course, consumers can choose to buy or not. But who made these 'products' affect human life? Once human life is involved, then people will no longer be rational.

Speaking so much, I don't want to reverse the case for drug R\u0026D and production companies. Some companies are indeed showing off their power with the technology patents they have mastered. Even committed numerous crimes, how many blood, tears and lives were buried in it, I am afraid that even they cannot be counted.

So when he first wanted to get involved in this field, he was very entangled. Whether this matter is done well or badly, he will be scolded.

When you can't develop and produce something, everyone will scold you for being useless and useless. Why can foreign companies do it, but you can't do it? To put it bluntly, it's useless.

When you develop it, these people will turn their heads and scold you. Why do you sell such a domestic drug so expensive and eat blood-stained steamed buns.

But an enterprise is an enterprise, not a charitable organization. Drugs developed at a high price cannot be sold at a loss.

Although the state has strengthened its support for such biopharmaceutical companies in recent years, it is only a drop in the bucket. Compared with the huge research cost, it is only a drop in the bucket, and it does not have much effect.

So this is actually a very complicated problem, and there is still a long way to go to solve it.

But if he didn't get involved in this field, he would be a little unwilling, so he just let the 'knowledge' in his mind go to waste.

Just watch the people suffering from the disease die in despair, or watch the foreign biopharmaceutical oligarchs wielding the big stick of sky-high prices to dominate the country.

Everyone will grow old one day, but in terms of money, he has no shortage now. Even if he doesn't work now, his money is enough for him to squander for several lifetimes.

But earning so much money, if he really falls on the bed and waits to die in the end, he is unwilling and unwilling.

The other is his parents. He has witnessed the aging of his father and stepmother year after year when he returned home during the Spring Festival in the past two years. What else can he do besides buying more nutritional supplements? This is also what he is thinking about.

Then there is the person around him, Zhang Jun, who can be regarded as his best friend and brother. Because of the rapid weight gain, this guy was warned by the doctor during the company's physical examination at the beginning of this year. Severe fatty liver, sinus arrhythmia, according to the doctor, if his weight continues to grow like this, the heart will eventually be unable to bear it, which will evolve into obesity heart disease.

After the human heart grows up, it will not increase with the increase in body weight and volume, so when the human body is overweight, the heart will not be able to bear it. This is like a small horse-drawn cart, destined to be exhausted. So many overweight people eventually die of heart disease.

After Wu Hao heard the news, he was thinking, what should he do if one day his relatives and friends had an accident in front of him?
