Chapter 249: Differentiated pricing! The despair of ordinary people.

Sensational, a complete sensation.

Whether it is at the press conference or on the Internet, the moment is full of various discussions.

"Has Xingfeng Group really developed an anti-cancer drug that can cure cancer, and it doesn't have any side effects?"

"Oh my god, did I witness history?"

"How much is it? I want to buy it, I want to buy it!"

"."

There were a lot of comments from netizens, especially those who have cancer patients at home. They were very excited when they learned that the anti-cancer drugs released by Xingfeng Group had no side effects.

Only the family members of cancer patients know how much pain cancer patients suffer.

It was pure torture.

There were media reporters from all over the world attending the press conference.

Through these media reporters, many people abroad also watched the press conference in its entirety.

Although Li Xiaorou spoke in Chinese, they were able to understand what she said thanks to the AI ​​translation subtitles.

Foreign netizens were instantly shocked.

"Can it really cure cancer? And without any side effects?"

"How could Dragon Country have this kind of medical technology? How is this possible!"

"Has cancer really been conquered? Why are there no news from research institutes?"

"Could it be a play directed and performed by Longguo himself?"

"."

Foreign netizens all don't believe it and are skeptical.

Obviously, they all couldn't accept this result.

Especially people from the two countries of Sakura Country and Eagle Sauce Country have the most doubts.
Many people condemned the fact that the Xingfeng Group colluded with the State Food and Drug Administration and the WHO to carry out false propaganda.

Although they also knew in their hearts that the China Food and Drug Administration and the WHO would not help the Xingfeng Group to engage in false propaganda.

But deep down, they don't believe that Longguo has such drug research and development capabilities.

You know, Longguo's drug research and development capabilities have always ranked low in the world.

How is it possible to develop such a miraculous anti-cancer drug?

Compared with the condemnation from netizens from various countries.

Medical research institutions in various countries have begun contacting people, hoping to get this anti-cancer drug as soon as possible.

As long as they can get this anti-cancer drug, they can analyze the composition of the anti-cancer drug as long as they know the ingredients.

Then they can replicate it.

This is a huge benefit.

These medical-related research institutions did not accuse Xingfeng Group of false advertising.

Because Xingfeng Group’s previous products have proven that its R&D capabilities are among the best in the world.

Looking at the discussions in the meeting hall and the disbelieving looks of the crowd, Li Xiaorou showed a faint smile on her face.

"I wonder if the boss is watching this press conference." Li Xiaorou thought to herself while looking at the camera.

Of course, she dressed so beautifully today not for these people to see, but for her boss to see.

But Chen Feng promised her that he would watch this press conference.

At this time, a voice sounded: "Mr. Li, how much is this medicine!"

The voice came from Gao Rong, and his face was extremely gloomy at the moment.

Even if he didn't believe that Xingfeng Group could develop this anti-cancer drug, the facts had proven that this anti-cancer drug was indeed real.

Now he really wants to know how much Xingfeng Group plans to sell this anti-cancer drug for.

The others also looked at Li Xiaorou and waited for her answer.

Yeah, the price.

This anti-cancer drug has such miraculous effects, one can imagine how high its research and development cost is.

High R&D costs mean high drug prices.

The reason why some orphan drugs on the market are so expensive is because their research and development costs are extremely high.

The pricing of this particular drug has nothing to do with production costs, but rather research and development costs.

For example, some anti-cancer injections cost millions per shot.

Some anti-cancer drugs cost tens of thousands of yuan per box, and these drugs need to be taken for multiple courses.

The most important thing is that these drugs cannot cure cancer.

Now, Xingfeng Group’s anti-cancer drugs can not only cure cancer, but also have no side effects on the body, and can even save patients with advanced cancer.

This is a life-saving drug for many advanced cancer patients.

Some people have cancer patients in their family.

And some people who already have cancer were watching the live broadcast.

They were all very nervous.

Originally, they thought that they would not be able to survive for more than a few years if they got cancer.

Now the anti-cancer drug of Xingfeng Group has brought them hope again.

But price is what they care about.

There is constant discussion on the Internet:

"What price will Xingfeng Group set for this drug?"

"I don't know, but it should be very expensive. The research and development cost of this kind of drug must be very high, probably several million."

"Alas, even if there is a miracle drug, it won't be used by ordinary people like me. I have been working like a slave all my life, and in the end I can't even afford a drug."

“It would be great if I could get into medical insurance.”

"You're overthinking how this drug could possibly be included in medical insurance."

"No matter what, I'm going to buy it even if I have to sell my house. My mom needs this medicine."

"."

Many people in the live broadcast room were very nervous. They were afraid that Xingfeng Group’s price was too high and they could not afford it.

Gao Rong was also staring at Li Xiaorou, and she was also waiting for Li Xiaorou to name the price.

At this moment, he hoped that Li Xiaorou would set the price higher.

As long as the price is set high enough, it will be difficult to take away their market share.

He also felt that the research and development cost of this anti-cancer drug must be very high.

The price set by Xingfeng Group should be higher than their group's anti-cancer drugs.

No one was talking at the press conference at this moment.

Everyone was waiting for Li Xiaorou to announce the price.

Li Xiaorou took a deep breath, looked at everyone at the press conference and said:
"Xingfeng anti-cancer drugs will be priced in a differentiated manner. Our group will investigate the patient's background and then give a reasonable price. The prices will be divided according to the high-income class, middle-income class and low-income class. We will also give certain exemptions to extremely poor patients!"

When these words came out, everyone almost thought they had heard it wrong.

Especially the reporters at the press conference, they stared at Li Xiaorou with wide eyes.

A domestic reporter couldn't help but ask:

"Mr. Li, do you mean to sell it to the rich at a high price and to the poor at a low price?"

Everyone has already seen that this is what Li Xiaorou meant by differentiated pricing.

Divide prices according to different groups of people.

Simply put, if your family is heavily in debt due to cancer, then this anti-cancer drug may only cost a few thousand dollars.

But if your family is rich, the price of this anti-cancer drug is very expensive.

Gao Rong also looked at Li Xiaorou with disbelief.

He wondered if the Xingfeng Group was crazy.

This pricing method is bound to cause dissatisfaction among the rich.

No matter what social system it is, there are classes.

The pricing method of Xingfeng Group is to use the rich's money to give back to the poor.

You know, the elite class in a society are basically rich people, and the poor only account for a small number.

These wealthy classes have the greatest influence and have a great impact on all industries.

It would be more costly for any business to offend this class.

For a moment, the venue fell into silence again. Only the netizens in the live broadcast room started to quarrel.

Some people are cursing the Xingfeng Group, while more people are supporting the Xingfeng Group.

For low-income families, if one person in the family gets cancer, the entire family will be in debt.

This kind of debt may only allow the patient to live a few more years, but it cannot cure the disease at all.

"Xingfeng Group! They are my adopted parents!"

"My mother is saved, my mother is saved!"

"Why do you have to set this price? It's unfair! I want to complain."

"That's right, I'm going to file a complaint with the market regulator. There's something wrong with this pricing!"

"."

There is constant debate on the Internet.

But soon, the number of supporters of the Xingfeng Group gradually outweighed the number of doubters.

Li Xiaorou's voice came again:

"Everyone, our group's differentiated pricing has been approved by the state, and we have all the relevant procedures."

"In addition, I want to make one more statement. Xingfeng anti-cancer drugs can only be purchased at stores designated by our group, and must be taken on the spot in the store!"

"We will set the launch date as tomorrow!"

Li Xiaorou's words changed the eyes of everyone in the field.

It must be taken at designated stores and must be taken on the spot.

The Xingfeng Group made this rule because they were worried that someone would snatch the anti-cancer drugs or resell them.

Everyone at the scene applauded at this moment.

These include domestic pharmaceutical companies and many well-known figures from all walks of life.

The applause continued in the venue.

These people looked at Li Xiaorou with admiration.

It is impossible for any of their companies to make such pricing decisions.

Because this method will not only offend people, but also cause losses.

Xingfeng Group is completely considering the interests of ordinary people.

Thinking of what Li Xiaorou said before, Xingfeng Group is an enterprise that serves the country, many people were in awe.

What does it mean to serve the country and the people? This is the true meaning of serving the country and the people.

At this time, a foreign reporter suddenly asked:
"Mr. Li, may I ask if your Xingfeng Group is not planning to export this anti-cancer drug?"

Export, this is an issue that foreign journalists are concerned about.

Li Xiaorou looked at the foreign female reporter who asked the question and said:
"I'm sorry, the production cost of our group's anti-cancer drugs is very high, and the raw materials are also very difficult to obtain, so our sales are limited. At present, they will only be supplied to the domestic market and only sold to patients with Dragon Country nationality."

Not to sell it abroad, this is what Chen Feng told her.

The production of the Rejuvenation Pill is limited. Even if the pill is diluted and divided into a thousand capsules, it is still not enough to supply so many cancer patients in Long Country.

How could it be possible to supply it to foreign countries?

After hearing what Li Xiaorou said, foreign netizens were immediately angry.

Especially netizens in the Sakura Country were cursing online.

"Monopoly, this is a complete monopoly, Xingfeng Group is engaging in racial discrimination!"

"Why don't you sell it to us? Why?"

"This technology should be made public. It is a technology that benefits mankind and cannot be monopolized by a single company."

"The United Nations, quickly sanction this Xingfeng Group."

"."

The Internet abroad is full of insults.

They also complained a few times about not being able to buy the Healing Pill No. 1 and Yangyuan Body Building Pills.

After all, one is a medicine for trauma and the other is a health care medicine.

But this drug that can treat cancer is different.

The two previous drugs did not involve life, but this anti-cancer drug can really save lives.

There are constant condemnations from the outside world, but they are completely useless.

After seeing the products released by Xingfeng Group, some people are now planning to immigrate to Long Country.

It is clear that the Xingfeng Group will not sell its good products abroad.

It will only be sold to people with Dragon Country nationality.

Whether it is the previous Healing No. 1 and Yangyuan Jianti Pills or the current anti-cancer drugs, they all prove that Xingfeng Group does not care about the overseas market at all.

Immigration, this is what some netizens abroad are thinking at the moment.

On a hospital bed in Guang City, Guangdong Province.

A woman in her fifties was lying on the hospital bed, staring at the ceiling with a dull look in her eyes.

The woman had no hair, was skinny, and had sunken eye sockets.

Next to the woman was a girl who was about twenty years old.

"Mom, let's continue chemotherapy tomorrow!"

The girl's voice was soft, and her hand was tightly holding the woman's hand.

The woman on the bed said in a trembling voice:

"Xiao Xin, no need. Mom won't do it anymore. Let's not waste that money. Mom doesn't want to drag you down anymore."

Seeing the pain on her mother's face, the girl named Xiaoxin burst into tears instantly.

"Mom, you're not a burden to me. You don't have to worry about the money. I'll find a way."

There was determination in Xiaoxin's eyes.

Her mother came from the countryside and brought her to Guangdong Province to work when she was young.

And her father died when she was very young.

The mother and daughter have always depended on each other, and her mother also works in an electronics factory.

Although life is not very rich, it is not a problem to solve the problem of food and clothing.

But a few years ago, her mother was diagnosed with lung cancer.

This news was like a bolt from the blue to Xiaoxin.

Cancer, this disease costs too much money to treat, each chemotherapy costs tens of thousands of yuan.

Over the course of a few years, they not only spent all their savings, but also borrowed money from all their relatives who could lend them money.

And now, she has no one to borrow money from.

"Xiao Xin, Mom just wants you to live a good life."

The woman's eyes were also filled with tears. She had made up her mind.

She didn't want to drag her daughter down, so she decided to end her own life.

"Mom, stop talking and eat some fruit!"

Xiaoxin took out an apple and started peeling it.

Her hands were different from those of ordinary girls, they were very rough.

Xiaoxin is still a junior in college, but she has to go out to work part-time every day.

No matter what part-time job it is, as long as she can make money, she will do it.

But the money she earned was of no help at all for her mother's illness.

Because a chemotherapy session in the hospital costs tens of thousands of dollars, and chemotherapy needs to be done every two to three weeks.

It is almost impossible for a girl from the countryside like her to earn so much money.

If there is any way to make money quickly, do that.

This was something she had just decided, and she had been very hesitant before.

But seeing her mother in such pain made her completely give up the last bit of dignity in her heart.

After Xiaoxin peeled the apple, she took the kettle and walked out of the ward to get some water.

Due to long-term work and malnutrition, Xiaoxin looks very thin.

She was wearing a pair of faded jeans and a long shirt. Although the clothes were old, they were very clean.
