It was a conversation between Huo Shengyuan and the medical staff during the development of Tongquxing medicine.
“President Huo, the data from the phase three clinical trial shows that the experiment has failed. We have to give up on the research of Tongquxing medicine. We can’t let it go on the market. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable.”
“What a pity!” Huo Shengyuan sighed.
After that, there was an endless silence.
In fact, not only did Tongquxing medicine successfully get listed, but also caused quite a stir. Huo Shengyuan Imew that there was something wrong with Tongquxing medicine, but he still let the drug go on the market. What was he thinking? How did he do it? Which departments were involved, and which key figures had opened the door for him?
Such a short audio clip soon caused an uproar on the Internet. As the top pharmaceutical company in the country, what was the Huo Corporation doing?
Soon, there were all kinds of questioning voices on the internet. The Huo Corporation’s official website was occupied by countless netizens, and the hotlines were exploding. Whether there was corruption within the Huo Corporation, whether the medicine produced could still treat the people, and whether there was another kind of “Tongquxing medicine”, all of these were closely related to the people.
Huo Qingxiao realized that the situation was quickly spiraling out of control.
He immediately called for a public relations meeting and asked the entire Huo Corporation to express their welcome for the relevant departments to come in and inspect. The Huo Corporation was a century-old pharmaceutical company with great influence and significance in the pharmaceutical industry. They should not damage the reputation of the entire company because of one person or one thing. Of course, Huo Qingxiao wouldn’t run away if there was a problem. If there was a problem after the self-examination, he would take responsibility and accept the relevant supervision and punishment.
The other urgent matter was to immediately set up an investigation team to restore the truth of the matter.
Huo Qingxiao had always thought that no matter how bold Huo Shengyuan was, he would not dare to joke around with drugs. He would not dare to incorporate his own personal interests into the development of drugs. Even if he failed, this was normal. However, he never expected that Huo Chengyuan knew about Tongquxing medicine’s matter from the beginning. He only wanted to gain the support of shareholders and gain a foothold in the Huo Corporation. Therefore, he did not hesitate to take risks. Even if he harmed so many children, he would not hesitate. This kind of inhumane beast, once it was verified, even death would not atone for his crimes. He had to be severely punished.
Huo Qingxiao was furious. After returning to the Huo Family, he called Huo Jiuxiao to the study.
“Tell me, do you have anything to do with the leaked audio file?” Huo Qingxiao looked at Huo Jiuxiao and asked. No matter how they fought, Huo Qingxiao always stood on Huo Jiuxiao’s side in the open and in the dark. However, this time, the foundation of the Huo Corporation was hurt. He was worried that Huo Jiuxiao had no feelings for the Huo Corporation and only used it as a weapon for his revenge. That was why he was angry.
Huo Jiuxiao knew what he was thinking, but he didn’t choose to disobey.
Everyone had a bottom line, and the Huo Corporation’s foundation was Huo Qingxiao’s bottom line.
“No, I haven’t.” Huo Jiuxiao replied, “But I thought you would have known that Huo Shengyuan had a bigger problem.”
Huo Qingxiao carefully read his son’s words and frowned. He seemed to be able to pinch the pen in front of him.
“You mean, he…”
“Don’t go to his lounge. I have a use for it. ” Huo Jiuxiao hinted, “Besides, this matter might not be a bad thing for the Huo Corporation. Huo Shengyuan’s matter will be exposed sooner or later. Now is the perfect time.”
“What do you mean?”
“I know that your South African biological laboratory has produced results on the anti-cancer drug. Under the condition that the efficacy is guaranteed, the price is only half of the foreign drug. Since you’re ready to make it public, why don’t you take advantage of this opportunity to attack the negative impact Huo Shengyuan has brought? On the other hand, you must take the initiative and sincerely invite the official department to investigate the Huo Corporation and clearly state how to deal with Huo Shengyuan. This way, we can protect the Huo Corporation’s reputation to the greatest extent.”
After hearing Huo Jiuxiao’s words, Huo Qingxiao was so shocked that he felt scared. No one knew about this. He had never told anyone about it. However, even if his son was extremely capable, he should not have known about the anti-cancer drug. But he…
“What else is difficult to deal with?”
Huo Qingxiao thought for a moment and said, “Huo Shengyuan is working on a foreign project. He signed a strategic cooperation agreement with a Middle Eastern country worth tens of billions. Now that they heard about Huo Shengyuan, there’s some unrest. They want to put the project on hold. The board of directors was using this as an excuse to request that the bastard be reinstated. Otherwise, it would affect the Huo Corporation’s development overseas. Actually, I know that’s just their excuse. These two groups should have colluded and reached some kind of agreement..”
