Chapter 1338 - Chapter 1338 Exposing the Fourth One!
Chapter 1338 Exposing the Fourth One!
Fang Qiu hung up the phone and frowned slightly.
“It seems that I have to find more magical jade stones.”
Fang Qiu thought to himself.
He was not too concerned about the medicinal herbs’ ability to absorb the Qi of Heaven and Earth. He only hoped that the Qi of Heaven and Earth in the magical jade stones would help the Chinese medicinal herbs to grow rapidly.
The faster his herbs grew, the fewer herbs he had to buy from others.
However…
Cultivation bases for indigenous medicinal herbs were currently being built all over the country.
The jade Fang Qiu stored was enough for the cultivation base at one location. But since he had built many cultivation bases throughout the country, he would have to take care of a great many indigenous medicinal herbs in total. Thus, even if he only wanted the jade to boost their growth, he needed a large quantity of jade.
At the very least, the jade he needed couldn’t be less than what he had obtained from the Zangjiang relic!
But…
Where could he get hold of so many jade stones?
Fang Qiu pondered over it carefully.
But as soon as he stopped thinking about it…
“Beep, beep, beep…”
The phone in his trouser pocket suddenly rang.
Fang Qiu took it out and took a look.
It was a WeChat message with a hyperlink from Zhu Benzheng.
Fang Qiu was confused.
He clicked on the hyperlink.
Then, he saw a video: a middle-aged man, introduced as a famous Chinese Medicine doctor, was speaking eloquently on a program about the preservation of one’s health.
“I should tell you something. It’s not that I don’t think highly of Fang Qiu. I admit he has excellent medical skills and is public-spirited, but I want you to know that Fang Qiu can’t reduce the prices by half of the Chinese medicinal herbs in a month.”
“Not to mention one month, he can’t make it even in three or five months.”
With absolute certainty, the famous Chinese Medicine doctor said in the video he was not optimistic about Fang Qiu’s promise at all. “Everyone can brag but because he is Fang Qiu, many people don’t think he is bragging. But listen, it’s not that Fang Qiu doesn’t want to or can’t do it, but that it is impossible to achieve his goal.”
“Why?”
“The Chinese Medicine market has its laws, which eventually stabilized after decades and centuries of adjustments. For example, the price of one Chinese Medicine herb is set due to the collective work and effort of dozens of generations. In the end, the right balance is obtained. Therefore, how is it possible for him to lower the price at will?”
“Other people are not fools. He is going against all the Chinese Medicine traders in the world. In this case, how can they happily do what he advocates? It’s impossible!”
“But if he purchases downscale herbs, I believe he can sell his drugs at half the market prices. But even so, he can’t lower the prices of the whole Chinese Medicine market. I am sure that Fang Qiu’s intention is good, but he can’t exert greater influence on the prices than natural disasters..”
“Think about it. Usually, only natural disasters can raise the prices of Chinese medicinal herbs. In this case, how can those herb traders casually lower the prices?”
After Fang Qiu finished watching this video…
He frowned.
He had to admit that this famous Chinese Medicine expert was right in some aspects. He was now facing the resistance of the market, and it was very strong.
However…
The expert said the prices in the market of Chinese medicinal herbs were settled through the efforts of dozens of or even hundreds of generations. In Fang Qiu’s opinion, the market of Chinese medicinal herbs the expert mentioned was not the one he had seen but the one for herb farmers.
It could be said that in recent decades and centuries, the prices of herbs sold by herb farmers had been increasing with the changes of the times, but these prices remained within the normal range.
But when the herbs were out of herb farmers’ hands, those black-hearted pharmaceutical merchants would get complete control of their prices. That was why they could get several dozen times more profits.
This should not be the normal state of a market. The herb market was in a sick situation.
However, this Chinese Medicine expert skipped this point. By talking about the whole thing in very general terms, he only wanted to confuse the public.
“Something is not quite right.”
After he watched the video, Fang Qiu sensed something fishy.
Sure enough…
Not long after…
On the Internet, all kinds of people in the Chinese Medicine industry stood up one after another. Like the so-called ‘famous Chinese Medicine doctor’, they attacked Fang Qiu from all sides. On the one hand, they confirmed that Fang Qiu had the capabilities and qualifications to do so. On the other hand, they repeatedly spread demoralizing remarks about Fang Qiu and said that Fang Qiu couldn’t make it.
Some people even said that if Fang Qiu managed to achieve his goal, then there must be something fishy about it!
There were some interviews and videos of these people.
Fang Qiu also checked them one by one.
After he finished browsing the relevant information…
Fang Qiu memorized the names of these people and checked up on their information in the Chinese Medicine system.
As a result, he found these people were not even good doctors.
How could they be considered prestigious doctors?
After Fang Qiu got this result…
He sent the name list he jotted down to He Xue and added, “These people have no status in the Chinese Medicine industry. Check them out carefully and find out who was behind them.”
Over there…
He Xue also saw the videos of the so-called Chinese Medicine experts expressing negative views toward Fang Qiu. Upon receiving Fang Qiu’s message, she immediately began to investigate.
Before long, she discovered that these ‘famous Chinese Medicine doctors’ were indeed related to those pharmaceutical companies.
“Humph.”
When he saw He Xue’s message, Fang Qiu couldn’t help sneering and muttered, “When I let you go, you didn’t choose to make a fresh start but instead turned around and played dirty tricks on me. Since you want to stay and fight, let’s go on!
At this point…
Fang Qiu sent a message to He Xue.
The next company: Licheng Pharmaceutical Company!
It was a simple sentence comprising only a few words.
Ten minutes later…
The Three Billion Foundation released a Weibo post.
“The latest progress of the case: according to the results of the police’s investigation and after sufficient evidence, Licheng Pharmaceutical Company was found to be one of the parties involved in the case of selling shoddy traditional Chinese medicine. Therefore, our Foundation has decided to stop all business dealings with Licheng Pharmaceutical Company. Meanwhile, we have officially filed a criminal charge against it to the Capital Intermediate People’s Court!”
As soon as this post was posted…
Fang Qiu quickly logged into his Weibo account. He had stored all the evidence in his phone in the form of screenshots. When he found the evidence chain against the Licheng Pharmaceutical Company, he posted it on Weibo.
With the appearance of these two Weibo posts…
The netizens were in an uproar.
“The fourth company for real?”
“I finally get to see what I’ve been waiting for: the fucking fourth one!”
“It’s more and more like a huge conspiracy. I don’t know if there will be any more.”
“Fang Qiu is punishing the evildoers. While cracking down on the counterfeits, he is also telling us not to buy drugs from certain companies.”
“Next, how about exposing the fifth one?”
“Licheng Pharmaceutical Company? I’m in the pharmacy and nearly bought this company’s medicine. Now I don’t dare to buy any. I’m leaving!”
There…
In the WeChat group of pharmaceutical companies…
Leaders of all pharmaceutical companies felt very smug over their minor success — they sent those so-called Chinese Medicine doctors to slander Fang Qiu. Then, one of them suddenly cried out, “Bad news.”
Then, he posted a screenshot into the group chat.
Everyone took a look.
Another company’s name had been published!
None of them had expected that Fang Qiu still remembered this.
They thought that after the press conference, Fang Qiu would shift his focus to the Chinese medicinal herbs market. It had never occurred to them that he would expose one more company!
“What the fuck. How could he do it again?”
“Damn it, why can’t he just give up?”
“He wants to expose all of us, right?”
“Did he find something?”
Everyone started to panic.
As for the boss of Licheng Pharmaceutical Company, he was kicked out of the WeChat group when his company’s dark secrets came to light.
They all knew that…
Under these circumstances, they were powerless to render assistance. Whoever Fang Qiu exposed could only await his doom. No public relations method could help.
It was because almost all netizens and public opinions were already on Fang Qiu’s side.
Once one company was exposed…
The police would come straight to its door.
When the bosses of pharmaceutical companies thought of this…
They were seized with fear.
However…
Right at this moment…
“I received a call.”
The leader of this group of pharmaceutical merchants suddenly said, “It was from Yang Ningyuan. Fang Qiu asked him to tell us not to play any more tricks. Whoever dares to hinder his plan will be the next one!”
Everyone saw this message.
In the WeChat group…
All the bosses of pharmaceutical companies were dumbfounded.
Obviously, Fang Qiu was aware of their sinister tricks. Otherwise, he would not have asked Yang Ningyuan to deliver his warning to them.
This WeChat group suddenly fell silent.
For a long time, everyone stared at this message in shocked silence.
Now…
They finally understood Fang Qiu’s intention.
What they had thought in the beginning was right: Fang Qiu would not bring himself to ruin everything. However, they forgot that Fang Qiu had evidence of their criminal wrongdoings. Fang Qiu chose not to jeopardize the overall interest, but it was not because he feared them. He just punished them slowly by keeping them waiting for a closely impending disaster. Knowing their companies might fall at any moment, these bosses felt like they were sitting under a sword suspended by a single hair. This situation was much more terrifying than Fang Qiu punishing them on a grand scale.
At this point…
They vividly felt the imminent danger of destruction hovering over their heads like a sharp sword.
Under the sword’s cold and dangerous rays, none of them dared to make a move. They could only watch Fang Qiu do what he wanted to do.
Also, they were quite clear about one thing…
At this stage, the situation that they would face became simple and clear.
They could only watch Fang Qiu develop and grow. Most importantly, they could not and never dared to take any open or secret countermeasures.
Whoever Fang Qiu exposed would be doomed.
Fang Qiu, in his position, had nothing to fear from them, but they were terrified by Fang Qiu!
From their long silence, the group leader knew they were scared. Helplessly, he typed a few lines of words, “We lost this round. We lost from the beginning, and now they have something on us. We are at the mercy of Fang Qiu. He can do anything to us at will. He might keep our companies, but he could also deal a crushing blow to destroy us!”
As soon as this passage was sent out…
All the bosses of pharmaceutical companies could only smile helplessly.
Facing the awful predicament, they suddenly felt everything they had done before was meaningless!
“So be it. Don’t play any more tricks. A long struggle of attrition is much less scary than sudden destruction. Besides, we may not be on the path to ruin. At least, there is some time left for our companies to transform.”
Transformation?
It was easier said than done.
At this time…
“Can we get the judicial authorities to make an exception for us?”
Suddenly, one boss in the group asked.
Fang Qiu hung up the phone and frowned slightly.
“It seems that I have to find more magical jade stones.”
Fang Qiu thought to himself.
He was not too concerned about the medicinal herbs’ ability to absorb the Qi of Heaven and Earth. He only hoped that the Qi of Heaven and Earth in the magical jade stones would help the Chinese medicinal herbs to grow rapidly.
