Physician’s Odyssey
Chapter 1435 Money Drives History
"You also look at this document, and wait for it to facilitate translation." Su Tao handed the document to Ji Xiangjun.
Ji Xiangjun found a paragraph printed in thick characters on a huge piece of white paper:
"The British Drugs and Health Products Administration issued the restriction on the sale of traditional herbal products on November 21, 2013, which was officially implemented on May 1, 2014. The restriction on the sale of traditional herbal products issued on November 21, 2013 It has been officially implemented on May 1, 2014."
"On March 31, 2004, the European Union promulgated the "Traditional Botanicals Registration Procedure Directive", stipulating that all botanicals sold on the EU market must be registered in accordance with the new directive and obtain marketing authorization before April 30, 2011. Without the registration of traditional medicines, the sale of Chinese medicines currently circulating on the EU market in the form of food and health products will be prohibited."
After reading this piece of information, Su Tao and others smiled helplessly: "Everyone has seen it? This is a policy and order of the United Kingdom and the government. As we all know, the skin care products of Sanwei International can be recognized by the market, and consumers are sought after. What a good reputation. The main reason is that its ingredients are all herbal plants from China. Through the inherited formulas for thousands of years, they are refined and combined to have good effects such as scar removal, anti-wrinkle and beauty. The development of Sanwei International The speed is very fast. We only recently discovered the risks. If it is too late to control it now, if we continue to let it go, someone can use our raw materials to design traditional botanicals to complain to us. Sanwei International's skin care products are because the ingredients are herbs Unregistered herbal medicines can mislead the public. Natural ones are not necessarily safe. Those unregistered herbal medicines are likely to harm health or even bring serious consequences. Wouldn't they cause business losses in the eyes?"
"Sanwei International's previous skin care products are all okay, but the herbal ingredients in our upcoming Fuyu Fragrant Pills are forbidden to use in the UK." Su Tao swept across the reporter's face and asked solemnly, " Dear reporters, this is what I said dare not, can you understand?"
The reporters were silent because they were speechless.
They can understand the predicament that Su Tao is facing, and they can also understand the current difficulties in the development of Chinese medicine in the UK and even in the EU countries. Now many Chinese medicine stores in EU countries cannot survive because Chinese herbal medicines are always opened for treatment and rescue, but the policy decision does not allow sales. Contradictory?
Although Sanwei International's skin care products are not botanicals or health care products, they are also formulated with medicinal herbs. Strictly speaking, they belong to the policy regulations.
Fuyu fragrant pill can be transformed into water for external application or oral administration. Then you can say that it is a botanical medicine or health care product.
If some consumers take Fuyu Fenfang Pills to complain about Sanwei International, will the court rule that Sanwei International loses the lawsuit?In the West, this kind of economic compensation is enough to ruin any rich man.
"Sophistry, if you are worried about such a problem, why not ban the sale of products to all EU countries, but specifically for the United Kingdom?" Jenny refused to give up. After all, there is a tendency for public opinion to reverse. As the initiator, she did not find out. The truth is reported. Wouldn't it be the object of industry ridicule?
She can't let this matter end there. Only if this incident continues to ferment, can her reputation and influence continue to increase.
“Although many countries in the European Union are cautious about Chinese medicine or Chinese medicine, the UK is the first country to formulate this policy, so we have to treat it more carefully.” Su Tao said seriously, “Of course, Sanwei International In the future, China’s skin care products will focus on the Asian market as much as possible. Whether the European market participates depends on whether the policies formulated by EU countries are conducive to the survival of Chinese herbal skin care products."
"I can't accept this explanation." Jenny said excitedly, "You confuse skin care products with health care products and drugs, and you have secretly changed the concept."
Su Tao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "What is the role of skin care products, whether it is to keep the skin moisturized, tight and elastic, or to delay aging? What is the role of health care products? Does it make the body function more healthy? Do you think it is true? Isn’t there any connection to the point? Let me give you an example. An internationally renowned care product company broke out with cancer. Isn’t this because of a brand crisis in skin care products?"
Barry took a deep look at Jenny, "Mr. Su’s explanation is reasonable, and I can accept your answer. However, any product that wants to ensure market circulation requires strict product quality testing. If you are confident enough, The product is handed over to the relevant departments for testing, and after being approved, the sales license is obtained, so that unnecessary losses can be avoided."
After Su Tao waited for Ji Xiangjun to finish the translation, Chao Barry nodded, "You are a person who understands management, but I must tell you a very helpless thing. It can be said that every product of Sanwei International has been detailed Testing to ensure that there will not be any side effects, but to pass the EU review, each product will cost at least millions of testing costs. I am not reluctant to pay the money, but feel that it is unfair."
A look of surprise flashed in Barry's eyes and said, "Where is it unfair?"
"Why are the testing fees so high? Who set the standards?" Su Tao said solemnly, "I suspect this is a collusive conspiracy in itself. In order to charge high testing fees, the EU and testing agencies deliberately Made such a rule."
Barry's eyes widened, and he didn't expect that Su Tao would make a shocking judgment.
The reporters below began to talk, because Su Tao is trying to uncover the black interest chain.
"Your view is a bit too arbitrary." Barry retorted, "If there is no actual evidence, you can't express your views so irresponsibly."
Su Tao thought this reporter named Barry was very interesting, and said with a smile: "Of course, this is my guess. I am willing to take back what I said earlier."
After Ji Xiangjun translated Su Tao's sentence, he concluded: "Mr. Su Tao has just announced the reason why Sanwei International withdrew from the British market. Although it is a bit regrettable, it is also helpless. Please report the reasons truthfully, etc. When everyone is over, don’t leave the reporter, you can go to the reception desk to sign and receive a small gift."
After Ji Xiangjun finished speaking, all the reporters began to leave. Today’s press conference was worth it, because the organizer prepared a small gift. After Jenny signed the letter, the staff took a different bag and handed it to others. She said, "This is for you!"
Jenny frowned and was full of doubts. Could it be that she had offended Su Tao, so the gifts he gave herself were particularly cheap and deliberately disgusted herself?
Jenny was curious about what was in her bag, so she went to the bathroom partition and opened the bag. There was a note in the bag, which read in English, "Ms. Jenny, go to hotel room 6604, and I am willing to communicate with you separately. Something."
Jenny sneered and said to herself: "I really see me as an obedient pawn."
If I hadn't broke the news yesterday, how could there be so many colleagues at today's press conference.She noticed that the agent had a red envelope and opened it suspiciously. It turned out to be a cheque. The amount on it was large enough to make her dumbfounded.
A few minutes later, Jenny came to room 6604. She was a very realistic person, hunger for money.
Jenny stared at Su Tao with a puzzled expression. If it weren't for Ji Xiangjun next to her, she might think this man might like herself.Although I don't like betraying the flesh, the check is enough to shake myself up whether I want to spend a short period of exotic romance with this rich young man.
Jenny had a bad impression of Su Tao, but that check was enough to change her previous impressions.
"What do you want to talk about with me?" A charming smile appeared on the corner of Jenny's mouth.
"Are you satisfied with the little gift I just gave you?" Su Tao smiled slightly and looked at Jenny gently, "You deserve it. Without your help last night, today's press conference would not have been so successful. ."
Jenny smiled awkwardly. In the news last night, she was willing to blacken Su Tao and Sanwei International, so she said a lot of misleading audiences, "Even if I really helped, the money was too much. too much."
Seeing that Jenny was not particularly greedy, Su Tao said with a smile: "This money is only the first payment for you. Of course, if you can do me a favor, I will give you the second payment."
After speaking, he handed another envelope to Jenny. Jenny received it and hesitated whether to check the number inside.
Su Tao guessed Jenny's mind, and said to Ji Xiangjun: "Tell her that she can read the number of the check now."
After Ji Xiangjun finished the translation, Jenny drew out the check, her eyes were incredulous, because it was ten times the amount of the check just now.Although she now has other income besides salary, the number on the check is wealth that she may not earn in her lifetime.
"Please rest assured, the money will be transferred to your account in a legal form, and the process is strictly confidential. You don't need to worry about any negative effects." Su Tao explained patiently.
"What do you want me to do? If you violate your conscience or violate the law and discipline, I will never do it!" Jenny was entangled in her heart. In fact, if she really wanted to do something against her conscience, such a large sum of money would be enough. Let her take the risk.
"Really? It seems that I have to think about it." Su Tao looked at Jenny with a smile.
Jenny was frowned upon by Su Tao. She realized that this man was stripping her heart step by step. She was really a terrible man, "Well, I admit, this money is enough to make me tempted. John Pierpont Te Morgan once said that it is not the law but the money that drives history."
