Chapter 218: What, Long Country People Get Subsidies Too?

~11 min read 2,178 words

Time gradually arrived in October.

The autumn atmosphere grew increasingly thick.

Under the coordination of Tianqi Group, after half a month of trial production and process adjustments, Destiny Potion began its massive, large-scale production across fifty pharmaceutical factories nationwide.

According to incomplete statistics, the total number of new cancer cases worldwide reaches over 19 million annually, and there are at least 90 million existing cancer cases.

Among them, the number of new cancer cases in Long Country is about 4 million annually, with approximately 18 million existing cancer cases.

The total production capacity of the fifty pharmaceutical factories planned by Tianqi Group has reached 30 million doses per year.

In the first year, half of the production capacity will be supplied domestically, and the other half will be supplied to the rest of the world.

The specific supply quantity for each country is determined once a year based on a comprehensive consideration of factors such as their respective number of cancer cases, total population, and economic development status.

Each dose of Destiny Potion is priced at 300,000 Long Coins, and the price is consistent whether domestically or abroad.

However, just like the supply method for Thor Battery, this price is only the ex-factory price; as the name implies, after production, the company is only responsible for packaging and shipping from the factory.

"You are in the late stages of breast cancer; you originally weren't prepared to give up treatment, and it was only for the Destiny Potion that your son specifically brought you to the hospital."

"Cancer patients in Long Country only account for about 20% of the world, yet they receive half of the Destiny Potion, while you have a total of 40% of the population, and you only get half."

"Does Grandma also know Mr. Su?"

However, Tianqi Group had long called for prioritizing the treatment of late-stage cancer patients, and major hospitals, knowing that the Destiny Potion could not possibly be supplied to all patients in the initial stage, issued relevant notices one after another to prioritize the admission of late-stage cancer patients.

"Mr. Su is awesome! I will unconditionally support every decision Mr. Su makes forever!"

"Hello everyone, I am Miao Xiuli, a host from a certain television station. I would like to briefly interview the two of you. I wonder if it is convenient to take a few minutes?"

"I seem to have heard before that Tianqi Group specifically established a charity company, but I have never heard of any subsidies?"

Once the production capacity allocation plan for Destiny Potion was announced, it immediately caused a sensation worldwide.

"The appeal of Destiny Potion is truly strong; as soon as it hit the market, it made so many people rush to the hospital."

"Seriously! Can you not stand there carrying such a big thing?!"

"By the way, the Destiny Potion costs 300,000, and medical insurance should be able to reimburse a portion. How much did Grandma spend on this treatment in total?"

"Since it is to save lives, why not just save them to the end? Why must you control the production capacity?"

"Completely curing cancer only costs a little over 30,000; in the past, no one would have dared to imagine this."

The cameraman wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with lingering fear, "It's too terrifying. This is the first time I've seen a hospital so crowded; it feels like it's on par with the Spring Festival travel rush."

Looking from the outside, one could only feel that there were many people in the lobby, but once inside, the personal experience was more than ten times more intense than outside.

"Yes, yes!"

The middle-aged man smiled and said:

Nie Hongwu sighed deeply:

"It can be seen that the uncle is very filial, queuing for several hours just to let his mother get treatment as soon as possible. Grandma is truly very blessed."

The beautiful host sighed with emotion:

Very soon, the beautiful host and the cameraman walked into the hospital lobby one after another.

Mentioning Su Xin, the old woman smiled even more happily and spoke as if counting her family treasures:

"Excuse me, please make way!"

"Grandma, can you tell me what your opinion is on this Destiny Potion?"

"My daughter-in-law went to pay just now. It seems I heard there was a large subsidy, and plus the medical insurance reimbursement, in the end, it seems it only cost a little over 30,000."

The voices constantly coming from around them made the cameraman quite helpless; he could only quickly gesture to the beautiful host, and the two squeezed out of the lobby from the other side, arriving behind the outpatient building, only then appearing less crowded.

"Yes, yes!"

The middle-aged man looked at the old woman, who had a kind smile on her face, and said:

"A subsidy of 200,000 per person; based on the 10 million-plus cancer patients in Long Country, this total subsidy amount is over 3 trillion Long Coins!"

"Actually, our interview this time is mainly to understand some market reactions and patient opinions after the Destiny Potion hit the market. May I rudely ask this grandma, what kind of treatment are you here for?"

"MD! Every time it's Long Country first. This time it was hard to supply everyone together, but the number of Long Country people is so much higher than yours."

"Actually, I have been to this hospital once before. There were only twenty or thirty people in the lobby, and that was on a Wednesday, which belongs to the peak period."

"I just asked the guard, and he said that usually, there aren't too many patients in this hospital, and the work is considered quite leisurely."

"After all, it is a life-saving medicine. It is very understandable that everyone is rushing to get treatment; no one wants to fall behind. If they don't get a turn and the cancer suddenly worsens or even leads to death, that would be such a pity."

"Isn't this too unfair?"

"Mr. Su is a Long Country person. It is reasonable and fair that the products he developed are allocated more to Long Country people. At the very least, he didn't wait until all cancer cases in Long Country were eliminated before supplying externally; that is already very selfless."

"Sir, please excuse me!"

"But now, with the Destiny Potion, cancer patients not only have a hope of living, but they also don't have to worry about a case of cancer dragging down the entire family!"

"The invoice shows that Tianqi Charity Company subsidized 200,000, and my mother's medical insurance reimbursed 10,000. The total cost was only 37,000."

"Who told Tianqi Group to be a Long Country enterprise, and Mr. Su to be a native-born Long Country person."

"Everyone can see that the hospital behind me is a very ordinary Grade 2-A hospital in Xizhi City, and the scale is not too large."

In short, once it leaves the factory, the delivery is considered complete.

"But today, as soon as work started, a large group of people was waiting at the entrance. It is understood that these people are all relatives of cancer patients, all here to queue in advance to register for medical treatment for their loved ones. One can see how high the popularity of Destiny Potion is."

"Next, let's go in and take a look."

Regarding the various claims on the internet, Long Country netizens are desperately defending Tianqi Group.

Miao Xiuli said in surprise: "It only cost a little over 30,000? And there are so many subsidies?"

"Can't you arrange more production capacity? Cure all existing cancer patients at once."

The middle-aged man smiled somewhat awkwardly on camera and didn't say anything.

"We didn't know before either; we only found out when we went to pay. I asked the medical staff, and the other party wasn't too clear about this matter either, only saying to pay according to the invoice. It seems that the treatment of all Long Country cancer patients can enjoy this subsidy."

"Forget it! You guys should think about it, some people can't even get a single dose of Destiny Potion."

Of course, Destiny Potion requires supporting auxiliary treatment methods, so Tianqi Pharmaceutical Company cooperates with hospitals everywhere.

"Bad! No!"

In Long Country, every hospital of Grade 7A or below can receive an equal quantity of Destiny Potion every day.

"We are all human, why be so biased?"

"If they don't have the ability, they should also cultivate someone as capable as President Su; if they have the ability, they shouldn't shout about fairness."

"If they still feel it's unfair, they might as well agree to cooperate, go do the research and development themselves, and once they develop a drug weaker than Destiny Potion, they can just supply it to their own people."

The seven people felt their legs could barely move, especially the cameraman carrying the camera; people were constantly weaving back and forth in front of and behind him, and not only was he unable to film the host, but his camera was also being bumped into from time to time.

They had just arrived at the main entrance.

"My son left home at five-something this morning and has been waiting at the hospital entrance. Once he finished queuing and got a registration number, my daughter-in-law brought me to the hospital, and I went straight into the consultation room to see the doctor. I've just finished the physical examination, and now the doctor has prescribed me a Destiny Potion; treatment can be arranged in a moment."

"Only the wealthy and imposing Tianqi Group could be so generous."

"That goes without saying. Don't look down on us old folks; some old friends and I are all fans of President Su. When we have nothing to do and watch videos, we see many people talking about President Su's deeds. This young man is truly amazing! Not only did he found so many impressive enterprises and win glory for the country, but he also taught Sakura Country a harsh lesson. It feels very satisfying. I've also been using his Tiantian Assistant for several months, and it feels very convenient."

The beautiful host saw the crowded people in the outpatient hall through the transparent tempered glass and couldn't help but let out an exclamation:

Immediately, she changed the subject and asked again:

A beautiful host holding a microphone stood in front of the camera and said with a faint smile.

"This half of the production capacity, when distributed to so many countries, is simply not enough, and many cancer patients will still die."

"Tianqi Group is worthy of being the pride of Long Country and a good company that has always been willing to give back to society. Originally, the price of 800,000 per dose was already very cost-effective for curing cancer."

"Tianqi Charity Company?"

Miao Xiuli said in surprise:

The old woman nodded, without any of the pessimism, despair, or other negative emotions of a cancer patient; instead, she smiled very happily:

Subsequent logistics, various transfers, distribution to every hospital, and other links are all handled by the various agents themselves.

The old woman smiled kindly:

After speaking, the beautiful host walked toward the hospital's main entrance, and the cameraman hurriedly followed with the camera on his shoulder.

"These 30,000 are the total cost, including the physical examination and supporting treatment."

"Grandma, I didn't mean to look down on you all; I just thought that as elders, you wouldn't pay much attention to a young person like President Su. I didn't expect you all to know so many of President Su's deeds."

The discussions on the internet did not affect the cooperation between Tianqi Group and the various parties in the slightest.

With the stabilization of mass production, large quantities of Destiny Potion were sent to all parts of the world.

"Good! Very good, Destiny Potion is truly too good. It can save us cancer patients; we all have to thank President Su."

Miao Xiuli smiled and said:

"Now, Tianqi Group has even quietly subsidized more than half of the amount."

"It looks like you have already gotten your registration number, right?"

But even so, from the first day Destiny Potion was officially supplied, all hospitals across the country were packed with family members of cancer patients waiting in line.

Many media outlets also reported on the grand occasion at major hospitals on the first day.

"Everyone, please look. The outpatient hall at this moment is already a sea of people. A rough glance shows nothing but a mass of dark heads; there is almost no empty space."

As she was speaking, she saw a middle-aged man pushing an old woman in a wheelchair slowly walking over, and she hurriedly signaled to the cameraman, who quickly turned the camera back on.

The beautiful host walked toward the two of them and greeted them politely:

The middle-aged man, who had been silent all along, finally spoke at this moment, with a trace of a grateful smile on his face, saying:

Miao Xiuli smiled apologetically:
