Chapter 374 HIV Terminator

The only thing Gilead didn't expect was that Wei Kang didn't really care much about how much money Duan Ailing could make overseas.

For Weikang, the greatest significance of the launch of this drug is that it can cure millions of AIDS patients across the country, so that healthy people no longer worry about being infected.

How much money you can make is important, but not that important.

At least not in the number one position.

He will be very happy to continue to earn money from overseas patients, after all, he is paying for domestic patients.

An overseas patient has an annual income of more than 20,000 US dollars. How many domestic compatriots is this enough to treat?

These HIV patients in the Eagle Country are all fat and oily, and the cost of medicine for one person is as high as 30 in China.

In the tens of billions of dollars of anti-AIDS drug market, even if Duan Ailing's market share can reach single digits, it will generate billions of dollars in revenue every year.

Duanailing has just been listed on the market, with full potential, and the patent protection period is still 20 years, which has enough time to make huge profits.

As for the amount of money, whether it can grab the number one position in the Gilead market.

He didn't take it seriously, after all, Sanqing didn't only rely on this medicine.

At this time, he was in the office, listening to Anmei report the latest news.

"What? They came here in person to ask for help, and they specifically asked for the Duan Ai Ling produced by Sanxin by name?"

Wei Kang suddenly laughed angrily: "This cheek is really thick enough, but I will not spoil them."

"The free drugs in the Philippines are basically cheap generic drugs. How can anyone donate the original drugs?"

"Tell them that Duan Ailing will be launched in the Philippines as soon as possible, and the price will be the same as that of the Eagle Country. If you want it, you can buy it with real money. Anyway, in my impression, the upper class in the Philippines should be quite rich."

"In addition, Sanqing's Philippine branch will provide love spirits at a discounted price to Chinese infected in the Philippines. Otherwise, I can't help."

"After all, I gave up most of my interests to cooperate with the country to complete the HIV eradication plan."

"These Filipinos must have heard of this plan."

Anmei laughed softly: "That's not true. After hearing this plan, they were all shocked with envy. They wished they could be naturalized in Huaxia immediately and have the quota to receive free medicines."

Wei Kang waved his hand and said, "Okay, I have paid a lot for patients across the country."

"For overseas patients, the only thing I think of is to make more money for them, so as to subsidize the domestic deficit."

"As for free medicines, let them go to Gilead and GSK. I heard that they are doing charity recently and donating free medicines everywhere. It's a big conscience. It's a pity not to go to the wool."

Anmei nodded and continued: "There is one more thing. The Williams you asked me to pay attention to has been sending news to the Eagle Country for a long time, but the frequency of contact there has decreased a lot after the year."

Wei Kang scratched his head: "Oh, it's him. I listened to Tang Que's feedback and spoke highly of him. This guy is indeed a talent, and Ying Guo has paid a lot of money. I remember that his postdoctorate seems to be due soon. , it stands to reason that you should be ready to leave."

"No, he recently applied to become a full-time employee, and Tang Que also approved it, and transferred him to the HIV gene drug research and development team."

"What? He didn't leave?" Wei Kang was stunned for a moment: "Is there no response over there?"

Anmei called up a communication file, which recorded the content of the two people's recent chats in detail.

"He himself proposed to continue to stay, and Eagle Country didn't show any abnormality, just let him continue to pass on the news."

Wei Kang frowned: "There seems to be something wrong, you should look carefully to see if you missed anything."

Anmei quickly called up an early chat record and added: "I noticed that a person named Brody was mentioned in the chat records at the beginning of the year. He seems to be very important to Williams. You see, here is very important. He asked the other party in a fierce tone."

"Why didn't you tell me he was dead?"

"Are you afraid that I will lose control?"

"I'm free, I don't owe you anything!"

"Mr. Wei, look, after a fierce confrontation, the two sides seem to have reached a delicate compromise."

"This may be the reason why Williams is willing to stay in Sanqing."

Wei Kang showed an interesting smile: "No way, is this an insider? This Williams is really an interesting person. I am now very much looking forward to his next performance."

*****

Kunming, Sanqing Headquarters.

Williams looked at Tang Que standing in front of him in astonishment, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

"Director Tang, you want to transfer me to the HIV gene medicine team?"

"It's great, I can finally become a real biologist and work hard for the advancement of human science and technology."

"Actually, I, I just wanted to become a regular at the beginning. I really didn't expect, I really didn't expect to enter such an important project team."

As Williams spoke, he became a little stumbling, so he rubbed his face embarrassingly.

Tang Que looked at him with a smile: "You should know that I always like smart people."

Williams nodded involuntarily.

Tang Que paused for a moment, then continued: "But you don't know, my favorite is a genius like me."

"And you are a genius like me, and my piercing eyes can't go wrong."

"Although it is not shown in your file, I have discovered in your daily work that you have a unique understanding of viruses, and you definitely have a strong talent in this regard."

"My project team desperately needs an expert in the field of viruses to solve the problem of gene drug carriers."

"So, from now on, you are mine."

Tang Que looked at him with burning eyes, as if he was looking at a rare treasure: "I hope I saw you right."

"Director Tang, don't worry, I won't let you down." Williams said solemnly, patting his chest.

"That's good." Tang Que immediately reached out and wrapped his arms around his shoulders: "Go, let's go to the laboratory now."

William was a little speechless for a moment. Could this Director Tang be too impatient.

He reminded in a low voice: "I haven't read the relevant project materials yet."

Tang Que suddenly realized, patted his forehead and said, "That's right, I almost forgot, how about this, I'll give you permission to check the information in the system first, and I'll come to you later."

Williams nodded, watching Tang Que leave, his heart skipped a beat.

He has actually heard about this project, and it is said that it is developing the most advanced genetic medicine.

Just one injection can completely eliminate the remaining HIV virus gene pool in the human body.

Gene editing technology is Sanqing's strong point, so the project authority is very high, ordinary people are not qualified to enter at all, and the members are all the best talents personally selected by Tang Que.

He opened the email from Tang Que, and there was a server link in it, click to enter.

Next, he carefully checked the project documents and experimental data.

Sure enough, Tang Que and the others wanted to use the virus plasmid to wrap the gene medicine, and use the characteristics of the virus to replicate automatically after entering the human body, so as to achieve the purpose of quickly spreading the cells of the whole body and performing large-scale gene editing on the HIV virus library.

It's just that there are too many viruses in the world, and they searched hard for a long time, but they still haven't found an ideal carrier.

The corners of Williams' mouth curled up in a confident smile.

He knew very well in his heart how deep his understanding of the virus field was.

As a top scientific researcher who has served in Eagle Country's biochemical institute for many years, he has conducted in-depth research on various viruses, and his ability in this area is one of the few, if not unique.

In Eagle Country's database, the accumulation in this area has undoubtedly reached a horrifying number.

Under such influence, even an ordinary scientific researcher will develop excellent abilities.

Not to mention, he does have a talent for it and a passion for it.

Williams browsed through all the information, and several new solutions quickly popped up in his mind.

His fingers fluttered and he kept typing on the keyboard, recording the plan he had envisioned.

I was busy until the afternoon before I felt a little tired.

Outside the window, the setting sun was gradually setting, and the dark yellow light shone in, dyeing his whole body with afterglow.

Williams sat on the chair, stretched his waist, stretched his limbs, and inexplicably felt a long-lost tranquility in his heart.

Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps in the room.

Tang Que's voice came from behind: "Dawei, come here, let's have a meeting together."

Williams immediately got up and walked into the conference room with a computer in his hand.

There were seven or eight people sitting inside, all of whom were familiar faces.

Everyone looked at him in unison, as if waiting for him to speak.

Williams skillfully connected to the projection screen, showing his plan that he had been thinking about all afternoon.

"Everyone, I thought about it. There are very few existing viral vectors that can meet the needs. If you want to continue searching, it will take a lot of time and energy."

"So, my idea is that we might as well edit the genes of the existing viruses directly and transform the vectors that meet the needs."

"Please take a look, here are a few that I think are more suitable, including adenovirus, flu, and so on."

"They have a relatively strong ability to replicate in the body and can reproduce autonomously, which is exactly what we need."

"Of course, we can also edit these gene fragments to lose their infectivity and toxicity without causing any damage to the human body."

"In this way, after the patient injects the drug, within a few days, the viral vector will rapidly replicate in the body, deliver the drug throughout the body, and eliminate the HIV virus gene pool."

"After a few days, the immune system in the patient's body will react and remove all the remaining foreign substances in the body."

"From the beginning to the end, the patient is like having a mild cold and recovers quickly without any discomfort."

"Next, I will show you the detailed characteristics of these viruses..."

Williams talked endlessly, and everyone in the conference room was stunned.

After a while, everyone showed suddenly realized expressions, and the smiles on the corners of their mouths became a little bitter.

Is this the legendary expert in the virus field?

It's really scary!

The scene in front of them made everyone deeply understand the power of talent and the gap between people.

The problems that had troubled the team members for a long time were quickly solved by Williams one by one.

Tang Que folded his hands on his chest, seeing all this, couldn't help but secretly nodded.

"Sure enough, I read him right. Everyone has areas they are good at. Even a genius like me has his own shortcomings."

"For the research on microbes, I believe no one in the company can match him."

"Such talents must be seized."

"If this continues, the progress of the project will be greatly accelerated, and I believe results will be produced soon."

After the explanation, warm applause broke out in the meeting room.

Everyone was clapping excitedly, cheering for Williams' outstanding performance.

The next work arrangement went extremely smoothly, and the long-delayed project wheel began to roll forward visibly with the naked eye.

After the meeting, Tang Que grinned from ear to ear, expressing his appreciation for Williams without hesitation.

"Dawei, great job, you really didn't disappoint me, you showed such a trick when you first came here, haha."

"With your joining, our project is complete. It is estimated that in a few weeks, I will be able to report the good news to Mr. Wei."

Williams tried hard to remain humble, trying to make a good impression on the new leader.

"Dear Director Tang, it is my honor to serve under your command."

"Hey, don't call me Director Tang, I'm so born, just call me Brother Que." Tang Que patted his thick shoulder and corrected him.

When Williams realized his mistake, he corrected it, and immediately changed his words: "Okay, Brother Que, how long will it take for this gene drug to be released to the market after it is developed?"

Tang Que was in high spirits, and he replied casually: "Of course, the sooner the better. Isn't the purpose of our research and development of this drug to eradicate AIDS?"

When Williams heard this, the expression on his face became a little strange.

"Brother Que, I have a question I want to ask."

"Say it."

Williams hesitated for a while, and asked with some doubts.

"Although it is a noble and great mission to eradicate AIDS, I am very happy to see it realized."

"But Sanqing is a pharmaceutical company after all. Since it is a company, the research and development of new drugs is naturally for profit."

"Anti-AIDS drugs are a huge market worth tens of billions of dollars. The global pharmaceutical giants have spent decades of effort to finally turn AIDS into a chronic disease that takes drugs for a long time."

"This is certainly an advance in human technology, but it also reflects a trend in the medical field."

"That is, pharmaceutical companies are increasingly inclined to develop chronic drugs, that is, drugs that can be profitable in the long run."

"Sanqing's gene medicine can solve the problem fundamentally, which is naturally excellent."

"But if the HIV virus is really eliminated, wouldn't it also eliminate all HIV patients and their own living space?"

"The market of tens of billions of dollars will disappear completely with the disappearance of the HIV virus, and the company will inevitably suffer huge losses."

"Boss Wei probably won't agree to do this."

"Otherwise, wouldn't you be digging your own grave for Duan Ai Ling's death?"

"I really don't understand this."

William looked at Tang Que with a confused face, and the tone of the question was very sincere.

It's like asking a common sense question.
