Chapter 129 The joint petition shocked the entire network! (Please subscribe)
"Dad Songsong, do you know what happened to 'Iron Horse Glacier'? I haven't responded to my messages in the past two days, and @he didn't respond either, as if he suddenly disappeared."
“I don’t know either. I’m anxious to contact him. A few days ago, I asked him to help me purchase several boxes of clobazam. If I can’t contact him again, my son will stop taking the medicine. I’m worried, too!”
“Hey, I’m the same. I also asked him to help me bring a few boxes of medicine. He said he would arrive in a few days, but now there is no news. , Could something have happened?”
“Don’t talk nonsense, ‘Brother Tiema’ is very honest, what could happen if he just buys a few boxes of medicine?”
In the national group of patients with rare epilepsy, they are nicknamed "Iron Horse Glacier", that is, Hu Adi's sudden disappearance immediately attracted the attention of many patients in the group. Many people were waiting for the medicine Hu Adi bought for them, and people were panicked for a while.
One day, two days, three days,
Until a week later, Hu Adi’s wife Wang Mei finally contacted the patient group.
“Sister-in-law, I’m so worried, what’s going on with ‘Brother Iron Horse’? Why haven’t there been any news for a week?”
Wang Mei was saddened as she looked at the dozens of inquiring messages. Replied:
"Something happened to Tiema. The Public Security Bureau arrested him a week ago and accused him of transporting and selling contraband."
"Transporting and selling contraband?"
Looking at the news, Everyone in the group was shocked. No one expected that the disappearance of "Iron Horse Glacier" this week was due to such a serious matter.
"Sister-in-law, is it because you purchased the medicines for us?"
"Yes."
Wang Mei shed tears. Hu Adi went downstairs to pick up the express delivery a week ago and never came back.
It wasn’t until three hours later that she received a call from the Public Security Bureau, saying that her husband had been arrested for a crime and was at the Public Security Bureau, so don’t worry.
When she heard the news, she felt like the sky was falling. She knew Hu Adi, how could he commit a crime!
It wasn’t until a week later that she was allowed to contact Hu Adi, and she learned that the cause of everything turned out to be the dozens of boxes of "Clopazam" purchased on behalf of her.
She really couldn’t figure it out. How could purchasing a few boxes of medicines become a crime? !
Everyone in the group was also surprised. No one expected that things would develop to such a serious level!
"Sister-in-law, what are you going to do now?"
"I don't know, the police asked me to find a lawyer first to see if I can be lenient..."
< br>Everyone was silent.
That night, countless people in the group could not sleep.
Songsong's father is also the father of a patient with refractory childhood epilepsy. A year ago, he also introduced the Indian version of "Clobazam" to his one-year-old son with the help of Hu Adi.
Over the past year or so, his son's condition has been well controlled, and because of this, he has even more trouble sleeping and eating. He knows that Hu Adi is in jail because of himself and his fellow patients. .
But what can he do?
In the next few days, the atmosphere in the group became even more depressing, and countless patients were concerned about the follow-up news about Hu Adi.
One week, two weeks, and three weeks later, I finally got the latest news about Hu Adi from his wife Wang Mei.
"The evidence is conclusive. Some people say that Hu Adi has committed the crime of 'drug smuggling' and 'transportation and smuggling'. The relevant files have been transferred to the procuratorate and are said to be ready for trial."
Having learned that Hu Adi is about to be prosecuted The news shattered everyone's illusions and hopes.
With the deepest conscience in his heart, Songsong’s father could no longer bear it. He felt that he had to do something.
Early in the morning, he posted a message in the group.
"@everyone, I am Songsong Dad. Everyone knows about Tiema. We all know that he was wronged. He just brought medicine for us. He did not commit a crime!"
< br>
"At this moment, we must stand up and speak out for him!"
"It will be too late if we don't speak out!"
Not long after the message was sent, several patients immediately responded in the group .
"Dad Songsong is right. I have been paying attention to this matter during this period. I feel very guilty. I know that Tiema was arrested for bringing us medicine, but we are quiet people. We What should we do?”
“Yes, I agree with Songsong’s father. In fact, I wanted to help a long time ago. Iron Horse was arrested because of us. You tell me, we all listen. Yours!”
Many patients agreed, and Songsong's father immediately expressed his thoughts.
“We are just ordinary people, and the only thing we can rely on is the Internet!”
“So, my idea is for all of us to jointly write a 'QYS' to speak out for him! "
"Only by exposing this matter on the Internet and attracting everyone's attention can we save Iron Horse!"
"This is the only way!"
As soon as the news came out, many patients in the group agreed, but soon several mothers expressed their concerns.
"Real-name system? Or a joint book...will it cause too much trouble?"
"Yes, is there no other way? Wouldn't this be too extreme? A little?”
“Extreme?”
Dad Songsong shook his head and replied quickly:
"I know everyone is worried, but...Iron Horse has no way out!"
"Think about it, if there was no Iron Horse, would we be able to get cheap generic drugs from India in a year or two?"< br>
“No!”
“He just charged us 20 yuan or 30 yuan for each box. He didn’t do it to make money, he just brought medicine for us out of pity and sympathy for us!”
“He could have just bought his daughter’s medicine!” So, should we just watch him be sentenced and suffer jail time for us? ”
"Everyone has a conscience. I can't do it. I can't watch him go to jail because of us!"
Everyone in the group was silent.
At this moment, Songsong’s father continued:
“Also, everyone, wake up!”
“If Tiema is sentenced, who will dare to give us anything in the future? Bring medicine, where should our children buy medicine? ”
"So, saving Tiema is also to save our children!"
"We just want our children to live, are we really guilty?!"
The heartfelt cry finally He woke everyone up.
Immediately afterwards, "I agree" and "I do" began to flood the screen, and there was no other voice in the group.
“Okay, please write a ‘joint letter’ by hand, then stamp it with your fingerprints, sign your name, take a picture and post it in the group!”
"Then let me publish it on the Internet."
"Okay!"
Songsong's dad's proposal was approved by everyone, even though he wrote down his name and ID number It is possible to leak your privacy.
But at this moment, no one cares about these minutiae. Everyone realizes:
Speaking for Tiema is to save Tiema and to save his own children!
Ten minutes later, the first ‘Joint Petition’ with names signed and stamped with bright red handprints was posted in the group.
Immediately afterwards,
one, two, three, handwritten "joint petitions" were taken into pictures and posted in the group.
Until 9 a.m. the next morning, a total of 1,046 handwritten real-name "joint letters" had been sorted out and immediately posted on Douyin.
[Joint petition - Save our children, save those with orphan diseases! 】
As soon as the video came out, it quickly spread on Douyin in just half an hour.
The first thing countless netizens saw was the "joint petition" handwritten by 1,046 families!
1046 signatures, 1046 handprints, and 1046 handwritten "petitions" instantly shocked all netizens!
After netizens saw that Hu Adi was arrested for purchasing medicines and was about to be sentenced for transportation and smuggling, all netizens became angry!
“If one person petitioned with his real name, I might think there is something hidden behind it, but with more than 1,000 families petitioning together, there is definitely a huge problem!”
"Damn it, I've read all the content. It's the most ridiculous thing in the world. People who buy medicines on behalf of others should be sentenced to smuggling? What's going on? They are all patients. They just buy medicines for their children! They want to Is it a crime to be alive? ”
As soon as the video came out, the incident of Tiema Binghe immediately aroused the resonance and indignation of countless netizens on the Internet, and many netizens began to express their dissatisfaction.
However, after the excitement, many netizens still discussed Clobazam calmly: "Can anyone tell me what is going on with Clobazam? Can it be produced in China? Is the patent not expired or is it produced? The technology is not enough? Why do they need to purchase it on behalf of others?”
“Clobazam was developed in 1970, and the patent has expired long ago, but it is not available in China. People produce! ”
"Why?"
"Because clobazam is an orphan drug, there are only more than 10,000 pediatric patients in the country, and the net profit for a year is probably less than 500,000, and no pharmaceutical company is willing to produce it! ”
“If we have the time to produce ‘Clobazam’, we might as well produce a few boxes of it. Making money by counterfeiting the medicine? "No one in the country can buy it?" Are you forcing them to die? Are they guilty of taking medicine and living? ”
"Have you committed a crime just to survive?! Is there any justice left?"
"No matter you are a gangster or a gangster upstairs, I support you this time! The relevant departments should really pay attention to this matter ! Behind more than 1,000 petitions are more than 1,000 families with rare diseases! They will never contact us unless they are desperate! Those who are petitioning are really going to die!"
"@Relevant departments, the families with rare diseases are already pitiful, please help them! Don't let everyone feel cold again!" br>
Begging and angry emotions were flying all over the Internet. Countless people @ various relevant departments, and the topic quickly became a hot search topic.
Early the next morning, Qingshan Pharmaceutical.
As soon as Zhang Yang arrived at the office, Ren Xiaomin hurried in.
"Zhang Yang, did you see the news yesterday?"
"What news?"
Zhang Yang came home very late from the laboratory last night and took it At first glance, it was the video sent by Songsong’s father.
This Douyin video has more than 400,000 likes and tens of thousands of comments. After quickly watching it, he returned the phone to Ren Xiaomin.
As a drug researcher, he had learned about clobazam in college.
Clobazam is a Class II psychotropic drug. Because it contains heroin, it is highly addictive. It is the most strictly controlled drug in China.
But this drug is the most effective in treating "severe myoclonic epilepsy in infants" and the only drug that can control the condition.
What is "severe myoclonic epilepsy of infancy"?
To put it simply,
It is the rarest type of refractory epilepsy among epilepsy. This rare epilepsy only occurs in infants and children, and its incidence is extremely low. According to statistics, there are only 10,000 patients in 1.4 billion cities across the country.
Ten thousand patients.
So...
"Clobazam" is not produced by domestic manufacturers. All patients who want to take this drug must find a way to purchase it overseas.
He can understand why no domestic company is willing to do it. As netizens commented, Clobazam sells for about 300 yuan a box and can sell 3,000 boxes a month. Even if it only counts the sales amount, it is 900,000 yuan.
Excluding production line costs, drug costs, channel costs, and labor costs, 900,000 yuan is not even enough.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yang raised his head and looked at Ren Xiaomin.
"Brother Ren, do you think we need to help them?"
Ren Xiaomin took a long breath and looked at Zhang Yang:
"I think They are very pitiful, and... with this incident happening, I guess it will be difficult for them to buy Indian generic drugs in the future.”
"Who dares to purchase for them again in the future?"
Zhang Yang frowned slightly, and after a moment, he patted Ren Xiaomin on the shoulder:
"Brother Ren, I understand."< br>
……
Qingshan Pharmaceutical does not have its own drug production base, and all drug production links are entrusted to Hehua Pharmaceutical, another pharmaceutical company in Chengdu.
After Ren Xiaomin left, Zhang Yang took out his phone and prepared to call He Ping, the owner of Hehua Pharmaceutical, but after thinking about it, he decided to go there in person.
He Ping, the boss of Hehua Pharmaceutical, is in his 50s and has a somewhat overweight body. Coupled with his relatively short height, he looks round.
He Ping naturally did not dare to neglect Zhang Yang's arrival. Qingshan Pharmaceutical was now the major financial backer of Hehua Pharmaceutical, so he had to be careful.
"Mr. Zhang, you come in person and don't say hello in advance, otherwise I will go downstairs to pick you up."
"No need."
Zhang Yang sat down on the sofa, took a sip from the tea cup, and got straight to the point.
"Mr. He, let me get it straight. Have you noticed a topic that has been very noisy on the Internet recently? About clobazam."
"Clobazam?"
He Ping looked slightly startled, then nodded and responded.
“You are talking about the incident on Douyin about Clobazam, the glacier purchasing agent who was caught, right?”
"Yes!"
Zhang Yang put down his teacup and sat upright, looking at He Ping solemnly:
"To tell you the truth, since no domestic pharmaceutical company is willing to produce clobazam, I You want me to do this.”
“We at Qingshan Pharmaceutical have no production base, so we have to leave this matter to you.”
He Ping was stunned for a moment, and then his face became surprised. ：
"Mr. Zhang, why do you have such an idea? It's not profitable to produce clobazam!"
"A few years ago, a pharmaceutical company made statistics. There were only 10,000 patients in the country. Excluding those For those who take Indian medicine, it would be good if 5,000 people buy it. If the monthly sales volume is enough, 5,000 boxes can be sold.”
“Based on the price of 300 yuan per box. The monthly sales are only 1.5 million yuan, and we have to open a new production line for this! The monthly cost of the production line alone is more than 1 million yuan!”
“It’s a total loss to produce this thing. It doesn’t make sense to lose more than 1 million in a month!”
Zhang Yang shook his head, the amount of loss was much less than he imagined.
"It's okay. You don't have to worry about money. Just do as I say."
Zhang Yang originally thought that the matter would be settled like this, but he didn't expect that He Ping's expression was still solemn.
"Mr. Zhang, this matter is not entirely about money."
"You also know that clobazam is a Class II psychotropic drug. Its production, circulation, sales, and storage All links are strictly controlled, and raw materials also need to be approved and reported. It is very troublesome to produce it!”
“If we want to produce it in our factory, we have to apply for a ‘special drug production approval license’. Only those who have obtained the production qualification can produce it.”
Zhang Yang nodded. He also knew that as a controlled drug, he needed to apply for a special production license. After thinking for a while, he asked:
"Which department is responsible for the relevant approval? Is the process complicated?"
< br>"Complicated."
"I We need to submit an application to the Municipal Food and Drug Administration first, and then they will approve the production qualification of our factory. After passing the approval, they will go to the site to guide the work."
"After completing the on-site guidance and passing the production conditions. You can get the production approval.”
“However, our workshop hardware and specifications have always been in accordance with the highest standards, and there will be almost no problems with on-site guidance.”
“So, the main thing is the speed of approval by the regulatory authorities, especially the general qualification approval process. It's going to take a long time."
Zhang Yang frowned slightly, then took out his phone and looked at the date.
A moment later:
“Mr. He, today is almost noon on Thursday, and it will be too late for you to sort out the information today.”
"Tomorrow morning, I will personally accompany you to the Food and Drug Administration to submit the qualification approval materials as soon as possible. This must be done as quickly as possible."
"You want to go with me?"
He Ping's eyes were stunned, a little surprised.
He thought that Zhang Yang would take this matter seriously, but he didn’t expect that he would take it so seriously!
“Hmm!”
"Okay! Mr. Zhang, I'm going to prepare the information now. I'll be waiting for you at your company tomorrow morning!"
