Chapter 740 - Doctor, I Want to Return the Medicine!

“It’s a good thing.”

Yang Ningyuan replied, paused for a moment and then said, “By the way, I have something to tell you. Someone came to me to ask for help, saying that they want you to say a few words on their behalf.”

“Hmm?”

Fang Qiu was stunned and asked, “Those two pharmaceutical companies?”

“Yes.” Yang Ningyuan nodded.

“What’s wrong?” Fang Qiu asked doubtfully.

“Isn’t that obvious?”

Yang Ningyuan let out a sigh and explained, “During these three days, the public reaction has become more and more heated. The stock prices of Siqi and Taikang have been plunging constantly. It seems that the market is about to be suspended. This situation forced Commander Zuo of Siqi and He Yilu of Taikang to use all kinds of methods. They even hired foreign public relations companies here, but they were of no use and the situation continued to worsen.”

“Now they have no way out and they somehow managed to find me. They want me to ask you to come out and say something.”

Fang Qiu understood when he heard that.

The Siqi Pharmaceutical Company and the Taikang Pharmaceutical Company were admitting defeat.

“Are you trying to convince me?”

After figuring it out, Fang Qiu asked curiously.

“I did not agree.”

Yang Ningyuan quickly shook his head as he said, “If I agree to do it, I will still need to merge these two companies later, which will be a bit inhuman. Considering this, I directly rejected them when they came to me. Anyway, I don’t think you will agree to help them.”

“You’re welcome to come over and inspect the land. I’ll send you the address.”

Fang Qiu replied.

“Haha.”

Yang Ningyuan laughed and said, “All right, all right, now I can’t go back to sleep because of you. I’ll book a ticket right away. Is that okay?”

After that, he hung up.

Although Fang Qiu had been creating the terrain the whole night, it could be regarded as a kind of cultivation and recovery period for him. Therefore, he was still in high spirits after one night and did not need to rest at all.

Walking out of the planting field, he came to the factory and found a bench to sit on.

Only then did Fang Qiu use his mobile phone to surf the Internet and check the situation of the past three days.

After searching online, he found that during these three days, the netizens’ attacks on Siqi Pharmaceutical Company and Taikang Pharmaceutical Company were very ferocious, because there was actual evidence such as transaction records.

The lawyers’ letters posted before on the official Weibo accounts of Siqi Pharmaceutical Company and Taikang Pharmaceutical Company had been secretly deleted.

There was no doubt that this action had become a focus point which the netizens targeted fiercely.

“If you’re really innocent, don’t delete it!”

“Sue them? Didn’t you say that you were going to sue them? Sue them if you can! Can you do that now?”

“What is a lawyer’s letter? Everyone knows about it now. You think that issuing a notice will not attract enough attention, so you find a lawyer to issue a letter, right? Let me tell you, even if you find a lawyer, the notice can only be a notice. If you are so tough, don’t delete it. Keep it!”

“Where is your dignity? How could such a big company be so shameless?”

“Do you know what the real defeat is? It’s to use actual evidence to reduce you to the point where you can never rise again!”

“Even the transaction records have been exposed. How are you going to defend yourself? Can you still sue others for slandering you?”

“I did not expect such a big company to go against an 18-year-old college student and it’s both companies. It’s so inhuman. Bastards!”

“You should shut down right now. This kind of company can only bring harm to people!”

“An evil company is more horrible than the problem of drugs!”

The netizens’ comments undoubtedly occupied the comment areas of the official Weibo of both pharmaceutical companies.

Looking at the increasing insulting comments every minute and second, the people from the two pharmaceutical companies finally could not bear it any longer. They directly closed the comment areas on their Weibo.

The netizens became even more worked up when they saw it.

At first, the netizens were furious. Before the comment areas were closed, the official Weibo of these two companies could be used to vent their anger.

But now, as soon as the comment areas were closed, the netizens suddenly had no way to vent their anger. Their anger intensified.

In this case, many netizens even organized a mass reprimanding of the companies. They directed a large number of people to the official websites of the two companies and began their rantings in the comment areas.

Some of them even called the customer service lines of the companies, using various methods to contact these service lines and ranted at them.

People in the country began to boycott all the drugs made by the two pharmaceutical companies.

When the conflict did not die down, the two companies not only directly cut off all the phone numbers and contact information of their customer service, but they also shut down the comment areas on their official websites. Then, without paying any heed to the netizens, they deleted the insulting remarks in the comment areas, one by one.

The people of the Network Technology Department of the two companies seemed to be trying to fight back against the angry netizens. However, they did not expect that their actions would create more problems.

“They deleted the comments in front of everyone?”

“How dare they be so cocky?”

What they did directly angered one hacker hidden among the netizens.

Not long after, the official websites of the two companies were hacked by the hacker. A few words highlighted in red were left on their official websites—Evil pharmaceutical company, shame on you!

Although the people did not know which hacker did it, they really appreciated it when they saw this.

The two companies were so angry that they wanted to sue the hacker.

However, they could not find the identity of the hacker, while the netizens scrambled to admit that they had committed the act!

“It’s me. I did it. You can sue me!”

“I am the one who did it. I am the one who hacked your official website. Come and sue me.”

“I’m the hacker. Sue me! Sue me! Sue me!”

In the face of such a situation, the people from the two companies admitted defeat totally.

They had never expected that they would end up in such a dilemma in just three days.

Only then did the chairmen of the two companies think of Fang Qiu.

However, after going through so much tribulation, they finally found a person who might be able to reach Fang Qiu, but they were rejected by him.

Helplessly, Commander Zuo and He Yilu could only continue to discuss and find other ways to solve this problem.

But no matter how they thought about it, they could not come up with any solutions. Even when they were at a loss about what to do, the distributors from all over the country sent them the drug return requests.

Could they accept these returns at this time?

It was obvious that they could not!

Once these distributors returned the goods, other distributors would definitely send their return requests, one after another. At that time, if the goods could not be sold off, the stock price would continue to decline and everything would be over.

The two pharmaceutical companies had no choice but to increase their rebates at the same time in order to retain the distributors and the hospitals all over the country.

No matter what hospital it was in the whole country, the rebate would be extremely high as long as the doctor prescribed their medicine to the patient!

However, affected by online public opinion, the same scenario occurred in hospitals all over the country.

“Doctor, I want to return the medicine.”

In a specialist consulting room of a third-grade class-A hospital in a city, when a doctor was making a diagnosis for a patient, a young man rushed into the room with a bottle of medicine and said to the doctor, “Why are you giving me the drugs produced by Siqi and Taikang Pharmaceutical? I don’t want the drugs from these two black-hearted companies. They have been exposed last time. There is something wrong with their drugs. Please help me return them.”

“No, the medicine has been prescribed. I can’t return it.”

The doctor was stunned for a moment and said, “You did not tell me that you do not want the medicine from these two companies in the beginning. I gave you the drug list. You’ve been prescribed this medicine. There are records in the hospital. It’s very troublesome to return the medicine. And there is no precedent of returning drugs in the hospital.”

“Anyway, I won’t take the drugs produced by these two companies. The pesticide residues and heavy metal contents in these drugs exceed the standard. What should I do if I fail to heal and even get sicker after taking this medicine? Even if my illness is cured, it will cause me to have other diseases. I don’t think it’s worth it.”

The patient sneered and said, “I don’t care. You either help me return the medicine or exchange it for medicine from other companies. Anyway, I don’t want the medicine from Siqi Pharmaceutical Company and Taikang Pharmaceutical Company.”

“You’re making things difficult for me, aren’t you?”

The doctor gave a wry smile.

“I don’t care.”

The patient said firmly, “I won’t take the medicine from these two companies!”

“But the medicine I prescribed for you is really more effective.”

The doctor thought for a moment and said, “Of course, you can also get medicine from other companies, but the other drugs will be cheaper because they are not as effective as this medicine. If you need it, I can help you change it, but the price difference between the two drugs can’t be compensated.”

“What price difference? I don’t want it. Just help me change it now.”

The patient did not hesitate at all and said angrily, “The two big pharmaceutical companies worked together to bully a college student. What good medicine can they produce with that sort of attitude? Look at Fang Qiu. How many people has he saved and how much money has he donated? Not to mention the 100 million he donated at the beginning, he donated one billion again. Moreover, he treated patients in the hospital. He worked so hard that he even fainted. Such a good and kind person had his reputation smeared by them. These two pharmaceutical companies are crazy. Even if there is no other medicine, I will not take their medicine.”

The more he spoke, the angrier he became.

The doctor had no choice but to change the medicine for him quickly.

The patient did not leave until his medicine was changed.

“Doctor, can you give me some medicine from another big company? I don’t want the medicine from Siqi and Taikang Pharmaceutical.”

The other patients who had been diagnosed, said.

“Doctor, don’t prescribe me the medicine from Siqi and Taikang Pharmaceutical. I don’t want it.”

“I don’t want the medicine from Siqi and Taikang Pharmaceutical either.”

Every time a patient came in, they would say this in advance.

Hearing the same sentence repeatedly, the doctor felt helpless.

The same thing was happening in hospitals all over the country.

Although the distributors all over the country got the guarantee of high rebates from Siqi Pharmaceutical Company and Taikang Pharmaceutical company, they found that they were of no use after one day, because no one used their medicine at all. There was not even a single person who bought them. What good were the high rebates?

Therefore, the distributors no longer hesitated and determinedly returned the goods to the companies.

As a result, the two pharmaceutical companies were in a miserable situation and even their production factories come to a standstill.

Staff from the two companies were in a state of panic. Rumors spread everywhere, saying that the companies were going to shut down.

The two companies immediately held a board meeting.

“What should we do? Who can tell me? What else can we do now?”

In the meeting, Commander Zuo, who was always calm, became anxious.

“Chairman, why don’t we… suspend the trading?”

“That’s the only thing we can do now. Otherwise, we’ll suffer even more losses!”

In the end, the two companies agreed to make this decision.

They decided to request suspension beginning next Monday!
