Chapter 270

The M Guo official beside him hurriedly took over the tablet.

The news was released two minutes ago, and its content roughly said that Huaxia Guo had already developed a product similar to the Bi Si sustained-release agent, and its efficacy far surpassed that of the Bi Si sustained-release agent.

The name of this drug is Moth Wing Clear Oral Liquid.

Originally, patients suffering from a certain blood disease could not be cured and needed to take the Bi Si sustained-release agent produced by Shanbota Guo for life to control their condition.

Now, as long as one takes three to five courses of Moth Wing Clear Oral Liquid, this blood disease can be cured.

Such blood diseases tend to affect East Asians more easily, so Huaxia Guo is the country with the largest patient population for this disease, constantly having millions of patients; although the populations of other East Asian countries are far smaller than that of Huaxia Guo, when added together, the number of related patients each year is about twenty million.

You should know, the total population of Shanbota Guo is only over ten million.

Therefore, Shanbota Guo, by monopolizing the Bi Si sustained-release agent, firmly controls a super huge market with demand from over twenty million people, and over the past decade or more has reaped enormous profits.

As a result, the revenue from exporting the Bi Si sustained-release agent almost reaches fifty percent of that country's total export trade income.

The M Guo legislator stared at the tablet screen, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

A pair of blue eyes trembled like an earthquake, the pupils shrinking to the size of a pinprick.

"I also don't believe..." he said, mouth dry, voice slightly trembling, "This... this should be... fake news spread by Huaxia Guo..."

No sooner had his words fallen than his phone rang.

He took it out and saw that it was a call from high-ranking officials of the M Guo government.

He hurriedly walked to a corner to answer.

Immediately after, several work phones on the legislator's desk also rang, the office door was pushed open, and several men in high-end suits hurriedly entered.

"Mr. Legislator! The group headquarters' phone lines are about to be blown up!"

"Mr. Legislator! Someone from the parliament is requesting to see you!"

"Mr. Legislator! Your wife is also looking for you!"

"Mr. Legislator..."

"..."

Subordinates' reports and phone rings rose and fell one after another.

The Shanbota Guo legislator's mind went blank, then his complexion worsened, he clutched his chest and let out a muffled groan before collapsing to the ground, losing consciousness……

……

In the time of less than an hour that followed.

News of all kinds about Moth Wing Clear Oral Liquid has already spread throughout the world.

This is naturally all arranged by Shangguan Ying.

At midnight Huaxia Guo time, a press conference convened by the officials also kicked off without pause.

The participants included Mr. Yan and several top experts in the disease field, while the media side gathered numerous authoritative journalists from both domestic and international sources.

At the press conference.

Mr. Yan and others gave a detailed introduction of the efficacy of Moth Wing Clear Oral Liquid, and announced that mass production had been achieved, not only able to meet the healing needs of millions of domestic patients, but also able to supply patients in other countries.

Of course, since this matter is too sudden, and the whole world knows that this blood disease has always been controllable only by the Bi Si sustained-release agent monopolistically produced by Shanbota Guo.

Therefore, many reporters on site raised doubts.

Several top medical experts beside Mr. Yan, using detailed treatment cases, data, and so on, answered each question one by one, convincing those who doubted.

Afterward, someone asked whether the so-called Moth Wing Clear Oral Liquid was a counterfeit of the famous Bi Si sustained-release agent, and whether its R&D patent had been stolen and some shady means used to obtain the core raw materials.

Faced with such sharp questions, Mr. Yan and company showed no change in expression.

They likewise produced a series of evidence.

First, Moth Wing Clear Oral Liquid is one hundred percent independently researched and developed by Huaxia Guo, and can withstand any test.

Second, as everyone knows, Shanbota Guo strictly controls the core raw materials needed to produce the Bi Si sustained-release agent, whether openly or covertly, making it impossible for those materials to flow into Huaxia Guo's territory.

Finally, Moth Wing Clear Oral Liquid can completely cure that blood disease, something the Bi Si sustained-release agent struggles to match, and this also proves that the oral liquid is by no means a so-called imitation drug.

After perfectly responding to the reporters' various nitpicking, Mr. Yan, facing countless cameras, said that previously Shanbota Guo's export price to Huaxia Guo was a few dozen per box; after last year's import trade contract ended, Shanbota Guo actually raised the price, daring to hike each box to one or two thousand!

Such behavior, ignoring patients and only seeking excessive profit, is despicable!

And Huaxia Guo, now capable of producing Moth Wing Clear Oral Liquid, will absolutely not do the same; therefore, the domestic price of Moth Wing Clear Oral Liquid is set at one yuan per box.

One course requires three boxes.

Patients who continuously take three to five courses can be cured, meaning that spending only nine to fifteen yuan in total can completely rid them of this previously incurable stubborn disease!

For those abroad who need this medicine, Huaxia Guo likewise will not seek excessive profit from it.

Previously, Shanbota Guo's export of the Bi Si sustained-release agent to other countries obviously also varied by customer; if the country had relatively good relations with Huaxia Guo, the price was just as outrageously high, whereas if it had close ties with Shanbota Guo or a certain Western major power, the price was under ten yuan.

Now Huaxia Guo not only wants to break Shanbota Guo's monopoly, but also wants to uphold disregarding national relations and not caring about profit, seeking only to save all people worldwide troubled by this disease.

Therefore, from now on, exporting Moth Wing Clear Oral Liquid to any country will be done at a unit price not exceeding five yuan per box!

In fact, this is also Ning Jinli's intention.

Because, according to the comprehensive production cost of Moth Wing Clear Oral Liquid, the main raw materials are abundantly supplied, allowing costs to be reduced to extremely low levels.

She does not want to use it to make money profit; she only hopes to help patients relieve their suffering, so she decided to put it on the market at cost price.

When Mr. Yan announced the price, the hall of the press conference fell silent for several seconds in an instant.

Then came continuous, enthusiastic applause.

At the scene, several foreign journalists were in tears, because among them one was a patient of that blood disease, and another had a family member with the disease.

Although that blood disease can be stabilized with the Bi Si sustained-release agent, previously patients had to take medicine every day, and the accumulated medication costs over the years were not a small sum.

Moreover, the Bi Si sustained-release agent has certain side effects; long-term use, while it can stabilize the condition, also causes patients' physical strength and energy to be far inferior to that of normal people, making them unable to work.

Huaxia Guo has developed a new drug, priced so cheaply it's unbelievable, and it can completely cure that disease; calling it the savior of millions of patients is no exaggeration!

The enthusiastic applause lasted for over ten minutes.

Under the spotlight, Mr. Yan and the assembled Huaxia Guo medical experts were also tearful.

It's really not easy...

Meaning: "It's really not easy……" Could be "It's really not easy……" Keep ellipsis. So translation: "It's really not easy……"

For over ten years, just how badly have they been bullied by Sanbotuo Country? The bitterness in their hearts—only they understand.

Mr. Yan really wanted to thank Ning Jingli in front of the whole world at this moment.

Translation: "Mr. Yan really wanted to thank Ning Jinli in front of the whole world at this moment."

She deserves a share of this applause.

Translation: "Because this round of applause should include her share."

If she hadn't solved the most critical raw material problem, who knows when this moment would have occurred today.

Translation: "If she hadn't solved the most critical raw material problem, who knows when this scene today would have appeared."

However, given Ning Jingli's special identity involving top state secrets, she shouldn't be exposed to the international public; otherwise, if certain countries take notice, it could stir up unnecessary trouble.

Translation: "However, because Ning Jinli's identity is special and involves top domestic secrets, it is not advisable to expose her to the international public; otherwise, if some countries notice her, it could cause a lot of unnecessary trouble."

Mr. Yan could only suppress that thought, rose with several experts, gave a slight bow in response to the applause, and the press conference ended.

Translation: "Mr. Yan could only suppress that thought, and together with several experts he rose and gave a slight bow in response to the applause, and the press conference ended just like that."

"Mr. Piertuo! You're awake!" the secretary rushed over, supporting his shoulder, "Your jaw is dislocated, you also have a minor fracture, and... you've lost a few teeth... Don't move around; we'll take you to the hospital for further treatment after we return to Sanbotuo Country."

Translation: "\"Mr. Piertuo, you're awake! \" the secretary rushed over, supporting his shoulder, \"Your jaw is dislocated, you also have a minor fracture, and… you've lost a few teeth… Don't move around; wait until we return to Sanbotuo Guo before sending you to the hospital for further treatment. \"

Translation: "The secretary's face grimaced: \"You can't recall what happened last night, can you? \""

"Last night..." Piertuo furrowed his brow, trying to recall.

Translation: "\"Last night…\" Piertuo frowned, trying hard to remember."

Fuzzy memory fragments gradually surfaced in his mind, then became clearer, and slowly pieced together.

Translation: "Fuzzy memory fragments gradually surfaced in his mind, then became clearer, and slowly pieced together."

"The contract wasn't signed?! Have I been tricked?!" He jumped to his feet, his head hitting the cabin ceiling with a bang, nearly knocking him out again from the pain.

Translation: "\"The contract wasn't signed?! Have I been played! \" He sprang to his feet, and his Heavenly Spirit Cover slammed into the cabin ceiling with a bang, nearly making him faint from pain again."

The secretary hurriedly supported him, "Mr. Piertuo... Miss Ning said you'd better never set foot in China again; if she catches you, she won't go easy on you like last night."

Translation: "The secretary hurriedly steadied him: \"Mr. Piertuo, Miss Ning said you had best never set foot in Huaxia Guo again; if she runs into you, she won't go easy on you like last night. \"

Images of Piertuo losing consciousness flashed in his mind.

Translation: "Piertuo's mind conjured up the image of himself before losing consciousness."

Exactly...

Translation: "Exactly……"

He remembered.

Translation: "I remember now."

He had been knocked out by that woman's slap!

Translation: "I was knocked out by that woman with a single slap!"

"Hiss..." Piertuo covered his face, shivering all over, and asked in terror, "Are my injuries... from her slap?"

Translation: "\"Hiss…\" Piertuo covered his face, shivering all over, and asked in horror, \"My injuries… were they caused by her slap? \""

The secretary also showed fear, nodded and said, "Yes... oh, I forgot to tell you, you also have a mild concussion; you should sit down."

Translation: "The secretary also showed fear in his eyes, nodded and said: \"Yes… oh, I forgot to mention, you also have a mild concussion; you should sit down. \"

Translation: "Piertuo tremblingly sat back down, rubbed his arm, and said, \"Please bring me another blanket; I feel… cold. \"

Translation: "The secretary brought two thick blankets and covered him with them, after which he felt a bit better."

Then he asked what exactly had happened after he was knocked out last night, and why the Chinese side dared to treat him this way.

Translation: "Then he asked again what exactly had happened after he was knocked out last night, and why the Huaxia Guo side dared to treat him like that."

The secretary brought a laptop, placed it on the table before him, opened a video, and said, "This is the press conference held by China last night; Mr. Piertuo, you should watch it yourself... I'll go get you something to eat."

Translation: "The secretary brought a laptop, placed it on the table before him, opened a video, and said: \"This is the press conference held by Huaxia Guo last night; Mr. Piertuo, you should watch it yourself… I'll go get you something to eat. \"

Translation: "Considering Piertuo's half-face injury, he cannot eat hard food."

The secretary had the chef prepare a mushroom meat sauce cream soup.

After overnight rescue efforts, the lawmaker woke up.

Translation: "He opened his eyes and immediately looked at the clock on the wall; it was soon to be 8 a. m., when the European stock market opens."

"Quick... quick, bring me the computer!"

Translation: "\"Quick… quick, bring me the computer! \"

The lawmaker shouted, straining his voice.

Translation: "The legislator bellowed at the top of his lungs."

The nurse entered the ward upon hearing the noise, saying his condition was very poor and he needed quiet rest.

Translation: "The nurse entered the ward upon hearing the noise, saying his condition was very poor and he needed quiet rest."

But he didn't care; he insisted on having the computer.

Translation: "But he paid no heed, insisting on having the computer."

The nurse had no choice but to inform his subordinates.

Translation: "Soon after, his subordinate came in, couldn't dissuade him, and placed the notebook computer before him."

The lawmaker, ignoring everything else, immediately opened the stock trading interface and stared intently at the screen.

At the moment the opening stock price of Bisi Pharmaceutical Group appeared, the lawmaker felt a chill from head to toe.

Translation: "At the moment the opening share price of Bishee Pharmaceutical Group appeared, the legislator felt a chill from head to foot."

The market opened and immediately plummeted.

Translation: "Upon opening, it plummeted."

It fell to a point where it would ruin him financially, a point of no return.

Translation: "It fell to the point where it would ruin him financially, an irreversible disaster."

"No... no..." the lawmaker's face contorted, he quickly opened other websites to search for news, "This is just due to the fake news China released last night causing a temporary plunge; I can still turn things around, I still have a chance!"

Translation: "\"No… no…\" the legislator's face contorted as he quickly opened another website to search for news: \"This is just due to the fake news Huaxia Guo released last night causing a short-term plunge; I can still turn it around, I still have a chance! \"

Unfortunately, reality quickly dealt him a fatal blow.

Numerous news reports about last night's Huaxia Guo Moth Wing Clear oral liquid appeared before his eyes.

He saw the content related to the press conference.

He also saw that, including the countries on good terms with Shanbota Guo, all countries that originally needed to import the Bishi Huan Shi agent have announced that they have reached an import cooperation with Huaxia Guo.

The Bishi Huan Shi agent……was completely abandoned by the whole world overnight.

The possibility of the group's turnaround has been reduced to zero.

This Shanbota Guo legislator, the most influential and high-ranking, now the sky has fallen.

No, I should say, the entire Shanbota Guo's sky has collapsed.

The legislator stared blankly at the computer screen until it went dark, reflecting his face that seemed to have aged over ten years.

Outside the ward, a clamor suddenly sounded.

It was the reporters rushing to interview him, but this was not a good thing.

"The group over there...... how is it?" the legislator asked, his lips trembling.

His subordinate, face covered in cold sweat, steeled himself and said: "Don't worry, don't get involved in the matter for now. I'll go drive the reporters away right away!"

"Stop!" the legislator, his heart ashen, said: "I demand you tell me the truth—exactly how is it?"

His subordinate stopped in his tracks, gritted his teeth and said: "Earlier, parliament spent a large sum buying our group's stocks, plus last night's press conference……even without waiting for today's market opening, everyone already knows what the situation will be, so……those people are now questioning the group, temporarily being handled by the group's executives. Additionally, your wife's family, along with a large group of people who also heavily invested in stocks, have stormed into the group's building, the situation……is now chaotic."

"The M Guo commissioner......" the legislator asked.

His subordinate pressed his lips together, not wanting to say more.

Bang!

A loud bang.

The ward door was slammed open.

Several bodyguards couldn't stop the surging crowd, stumbling and falling to the ground.

A group of reporters filed in.

Just as the legislator's subordinate tried to step forward to block them, a furious figure burst from the crowd and knocked him down with a single punch.

The legislator looked in terror at the person approaching: "Commissioner...... you...... you......"

The person was none other than the furious, desperate M Guo commissioner, who lunged to the bedside in a single stride, fiercely drew a sharp dagger from his waist, and roared: "You have destroyed everything I have! I will kill you!"
