Chapter 871
According to Xu Yuan’s report, in the past six months or so, the development of Xiao’s Pharmaceutical Factory can be said to have achieved great results, the most important point being the gradual establishment of sales channels and the return of capital, both of which have ensured that the pharmaceutical factory can continue and develop rapidly.
“For the time being, among the more than twenty provinces, municipalities directly under the central government and other regions in the country, there are twenty provincial-level agents who have already established cooperation, and there are still several provinces that, for some other reasons, have not yet established contact, or rather, have not established business relations at the provincial level, but have signed contracts directly with the representatives of the municipalities …… ”
Xu Yuan was reporting in detail about the pharmaceutical plants, “Moreover, most of them have a contract term of about three to five years, and the agency fee is paid one year in advance.”
Ji Feng couldn’t help but marvel, “What a super fast development speed!”
He really didn’t expect that the pharmaceutical factory would grow this fast and actually almost spread its goods across the country. In this way, in another six months at most, Kang Yuan Slimming Powder would be fully spread across the country.
Of course, a full year to completely spread the situation may seem a bit slow.
But don’t forget, just half a year ago, Xiao’s pharmaceutical factory is still a small pharmaceutical factory even in the local Jiangzhou, are unknown, turnover and profits are pathetically small.
Because of the unprecedented appearance of Kang Yuan slimming powder and the beautiful marketing methods, Kang Yuan slimming powder became popular in the north and south of the country in a very short period of time.
It was a rare achievement to achieve this. It has also caused a shock in the industry.
“It’s normal to develop fast now because the pharmaceutical factory hasn’t really grown up yet, so all those large pharmaceutical groups haven’t faced up to it yet and haven’t put this newly-emerged newcomer in their eyes.” Xu Yuan still kept a clear head, “When the pharmaceutical factory really grows in the future, it will be difficult to have such rapid development again.”
“That’s right, now is the best time to develop.” Ji Feng nodded, “We must seize this moment and push the pharmaceutical factory to the peak as much as possible, don’t worry about the subsequent products, now is the point, be quick, be quick!”
Not being taken seriously by other pharmaceutical groups was not a bad thing, and this was what Ji Feng wanted to see.
Because once it was treated as a rival by those pharmaceutical predators, it would be much harder for Xiao’s Pharmaceutical Factory to rise again.
It was said a long time ago that the pharmaceutical industry is very different from other fields, especially in terms of sales channels. The sales channels in other industries are very free, if you don’t have channels, you can just set them up yourself, it’s not a big deal, as long as you are willing to go out and run, you will definitely build something.
So, choose this kind of small pharmacy, business almost need not be done.
There is another key place, which is the hospital.
The consumption of medicines in hospitals is simply huge and, moreover, this is the most important place where medicines are consumed. But often, the procurement channels of many hospitals are in cooperation with certain pharmaceutical companies, and the two are inextricably linked to each other.
This is what makes it so difficult to establish channels in the pharmaceutical industry, and is the most obvious difference from other industries.
So to be able to take a year to completely spread the Kang Yuan slimming powder is already very good. This is still because of the fame of Kang Yuan slimming powder, otherwise, without two or three years don’t even think about it.
And once the predators are targeted and the channels are controlled, the pharmaceutical factory will have to pay a big price if it wants to grow again.
“At present, I am already forming a team of professional managers, as well as a professional marketing team, in a bid to grow the pharmaceutical factory and establish its own marketing network in the shortest possible time.” Xu Yuan nodded her head, she naturally understood what was most important to do now.
“This is the right thing to do, the stall is too big, and if you do it yourself, you simply can’t get busy, it will have to wear you out.” Ji Feng said, “These teams must be set up as soon as possible!”
“Heartbroken for me, huh?” Xu Yuanjiao asked with a smile.
“Nonsense!”
Ji Feng lost his smile and said, “Be serious, you’re reporting to the leader now, don’t be playful!”
“Yes, my big young man!” Xu Yuan pursed her lips and smiled lightly, but her heart was very sweet, “Then there is the funding situation, the agency fee that has been received so far, has reached more than 200 million ……”
Ji Feng listened straight staggered: “How this turn of events, the pharmaceutical factory’s a*sets are over a hundred million?”
Ji Feng only participated in the preliminary promotion work, for the later expansion, he did not participate, basically Xu Yuan was in charge, Yang Dezhao was on the side to a*sist. However, he did not expect that this later stage of expansion would be so delightful!
In fact, the preliminary paving work has been done, this late stage is the harvest season, the front has worked hard, the back naturally harvests well, it is only natural.
“There are still many companies that do not pay the one-year agency fee in one go, but pay in instalments. If all the agency fees were collected, 400 million would be no problem. But we also treat it differently because the situation is different and our eyes won’t just be on the agency fee ……” Xu Yuan seemed to sense Ji Feng’s surprise and couldn’t help but smile lightly.
In the past, Ji Feng had always had a calm and steady posture like a mountain, so it could be really hard to surprise him.
“Eh! I’ve become a dirt bag who hasn’t seen the world.” Ji Feng shook his head and laughed.
“Hee hee ……” Xu Yuan laughed lightly, “Big young man, you’re not a dirt bag, the preliminary strategic planning and beautiful marketing methods, that’s not something a dirt bag can play around with.”
“OK OK, you also do not wear high hats with me, today attended a salon party, if you come will know, what is called the world, we can not be complacent because we have made a little achievement, to learn more ah.” Ji Feng said with some emotion.
Nowadays, the pharmaceutical factory is just learning to walk as a child, compared with those strong and powerful large groups, people will not even look at it, even if the pharmaceutical factory in the eyes, it is because they see the development potential of the pharmaceutical factory.
Therefore, Ji Feng’s heart is quite alarmed, several hundred million of a*sets, if nothing is done, it is several lifetimes will not be used up, but in order to make their own voice in the market, is still far from enough ah.
“Eldest young man, that’s what I’m planning too.” Xu Yuan said, “Now the situation of the pharmaceutical factory has basically opened up, the next step is to maintain the channels as well as continue to expand, the work will be quite easy, in addition to that there is also a professional team has gradually been formed, so I plan to enroll in an on-the-job mpa course to learn a little more.”
“Good, it’s good to have this heart.” Ji Feng nodded and smiled.
“Then after the Spring Festival, I’ll talk to you about it and see which school is good to apply for.” Xu Yuan said.
After talking to Xu Yuan on the phone, Ji Feng was in a much better mood, but he also realized that the gap between himself and those big predators was still very big.
The a*sets of the two pharmaceutical factories together were only a billion, and this included a lot of uncollected funds.
“Rongpeng Group over ten billion ……” Ji Feng couldn’t help but shake his head, “It’s still far from that!”
This is still only a private nature of the Rongpeng Group, if compared to those state-owned enterprises, it’s even more of a drop in the bucket. The a*sets of many state-owned enterprises are counted in billions of dollars, and tens of billions of dollars at every turn, which makes people’s scalps tingle.
The two pharmaceutical companies want to stand out from the future, to go a long way ah!
……
The next few days, Ji Feng every day with Xu Yuan and Han Zhong telephone communication, now close to the Spring Festival, the pharmaceutical plant production and other aspects of the work have slowed down, it is just the time to summarize and understand.
The situation at Tengfei Pharmaceuticals is stable, with regular earnings every so often, but it is impossible to take off all at once, and this is not comparable to Xiao’s Pharmaceuticals.
The reason for this is simple: the Tengfei Pharmaceutical Factory’s supply target is only the Tian Yao Group, and furthermore, only the military. After all, the drugs produced are different and so are the restrictions. The top would certainly not allow a drug like Special Effects Current to flow into foreign markets.
But Kang Yuan slimming powder is different, once the situation is opened, in fact, foreign countries are also a huge market, after all, the world’s obese population, foreign countries occupy a much larger proportion than domestic.
So in a short period of time, it is still only possible to work from Xiao’s pharmaceutical factory.
And Ji Feng has also had a preliminary discussion with Han Zhong, both of them agreed to let Tengfei Pharmaceutical Factory as a base specializing in the production of special drugs, and not to make civilian drugs, in this way, it can ensure its stability, if other industries are not good, this can also be used as a buffer, not to say that all the company collapsed at once.
And in this way, Han Zhong will also be able to pull back from the Tengfei Pharmaceutical Factory and enter other industries again. After all, there are very few talents like Han Zhong on Ji Feng’s side right now, so it is better than anything to be able to free up Han Zhong’s hands.
This is what it means to prepare for a rainy day and prevent problems before they occur.
The actual fact is that you can’t do a lot of things until the end, you have to lay this foundation early on.
After two more days, Ji Feng unexpectedly received a call from Xu Yuan.
“Young master, the inspection team suddenly came from above, saying that someone reported that there were problems with the Kang Yuan slimming powder produced by our pharmaceutical factory, and that verification was needed!” Xu Yuan said with some anger.
Ji Feng’s brow then furrowed, trouble was really coming.
Chapter 872
“What’s going on?” Ji Feng asked, “Aren’t they all on holiday now, where did some inspection team come from?”
“They said it was an inspection team from the Jiangzhou Drug Administration, conducting a safety inspection during the Spring Festival, and they received a report at this time, so they came over.” Xu Yuan said.
“Have the pharmaceutical companies below contacted you?” Ji Feng asked.
“No, everything is normal.” Xu Yuan naturally understood what Ji Feng meant by asking this, “The inspection team just said that they received a report.”
“BullSh*t!”
Ji Feng snorted, what received a report, this was simply an excuse.
The medicines produced by Xiao’s Pharmaceutical Factory were either prescriptions purchased from other pharmaceutical companies for production, and the rest was just Kang Yuan Slim Powder. And these two types of medicines have been filed by the Drug Administration, as well as audited by other relevant departments, and in terms of formalities and procedures, there would not be any problems.
Then, the only remaining problem would be the end market, for example, if a certain consumer had problems after taking the drugs produced by Xiao’s pharmaceutical factory. But if that were the case, then first of all those pharmaceutical companies responsible for sales would contact the pharmaceutical factory, because they would have to be found now, and then they would be the ones to deal with the pharmaceutical factory.
The rest, as it were, would be dealt with.
But now, the pharmaceutical company has not received any phone calls or other forms of contact from any pharmaceutical company, which means that there is no problem in the end market.
And the formalities are in order and legal, so who’s going to report it, anyway?
It’s a clear case of picking a fight!
“What was the excuse for their inspection, that’s what the report was about.” Ji Feng asked again, “Is there a problem with our formula, or is there a problem with the quality of the drugs produced? If there is a problem, which specific kind of medicine is it?”
“It’s a kind of Niuhuang antidote pill.” Xu Yuan said, “They said it was the formula that was faulty, and also suspected that there were problems with the formulas of our other medicines as well, and wanted us to submit all the formulas to them for review!”
Immediately, Ji Feng’s heart fluttered and he asked, “Including the formula for Kang Yuan’s slimming powder?”
“Yes.” Xu Yuan said, “I think something is not right.”
“Of course it’s not right!”
Ji Feng couldn’t help but sneer and said, “The way I see it, they themselves are coming for this Kang Yuan Slim Powder formula!”
“Ah?!” Xu Yuan was instantly shocked, “Then what should we do?”
“Cold turkey!”
Ji Feng laughed coldly, “I might not have time to go back right now, so don’t push hard with them. Since they say that there is something wrong with the formula of the Niuhuang Antidote Pill, then you should take the formula to them, anyway, we bought it from the regular channels and it is all filed, so feel free for them to investigate it as much as they like!”
“What about the recipe for Kang Yuan slimming powder?” Xu Yuan asked again, “They asked for the formula of the slimming powder.”
“Who dares to ask you for the formula of the slimming powder, just tell them that we have it on file with the Patent Office and it was vetted, let them go directly to the Patent Office for it!” Ji Feng hummed and said disdainfully, “Those people are just bluffing, they don’t have this right to check our formula, if they are capable, they should come to the patent office in Yanjing to check!”
“I understand.” Xu Yuan said with a nod, then asked, “But they are not allowed to start work when they move into the pharmaceutical factory.”
“And it’s still against the sky!” Ji Feng immediately frowned, “You first take it easy, I’ll make a phone call, the shutdown is well resolved, do not start the production line of Niuhuang antidote pills for the time being, produce the others first.”
If the inspection team is stationed at the pharmaceutical plant and asks for a work stoppage, then temporarily not producing the Niuhuang antidote pills is no big deal. However, other drugs, but can not stop, with the current situation has been spread, the pharmaceutical plant’s four production lines are all in full production, still can not meet the demand of Kang source slimming powder, if now again stop work, once to those pharmaceutical companies can not supply goods, but a violation of the agreement.
Hearing Ji Feng say this, Xu Yuan’s heart was at ease and she said, “I know what to do.”
“Don’t worry, nothing will happen, those are just clowns jumping on the bandwagon.” Ji Feng said a few more comforting words, and then hung up the phone.
“These B*****ds, they actually used even such tricks!” Ji Feng’s face was gloomy, and no matter who the other party really was, but there was one thing Ji Feng could see at a glance, this so-called inspection team, in fact, was for the formula of Kang Yuan slimming powder to come.
The people of the Drug Administration want the formula is certainly not useful, they are only the management department, and can not take the prescription to production!
So it must be that someone behind the scenes saw the prospect of Kang Yuan slimming powder, or rather, they were red in the eyes, and that’s why they put their hands over.
“A bunch of jumping clowns!”
Ji Feng couldn’t help but cursed as he casually picked up the phone and called Li Baoyuan, the mayor of Jiangzhou.
When he received Ji Feng’s call, Li Baoyuan was receiving guests at home.
It’s New Year’s Eve, so there must be a lot of people coming to the door to pay their respects, especially some of the cadres underneath, so it’s a rare opportunity to make good relations with the leaders during the festive season.
Li Baoyuan was talking to his subordinates when he suddenly received a phone call from Ji Feng, and he couldn’t help but be stunned.
Immediately, he picked up the phone and went to his study.
“Uncle Li, this is Ji Feng.” As soon as he picked up the phone, Ji Feng smiled and said.
“It’s Little Feng.” Li Baoyuan asked with a smile, “Calling me now, is there something wrong?”
“Uncle Li, there is something I want to trouble you with.” Ji Feng said, “It’s not a big deal, it’s just that the pharmaceutical factory where a friend of mine works, suddenly went to an inspection team today, saying that they received a report ……”
Ji Feng gave a brief account of the matter, “I think, the normal work flow of the inspection team, there is no practice of asking others for drug formulas!”
Once Ji Feng said this, Li Baoyuan immediately understood what was going on.
In fact, Li Baoyuan had long known about the fact that there was a pharmaceutical factory behind Ji Feng’s back. Although he seemed to be at odds with Ji Zhenguo, the relationship between the two of them was actually not something that outsiders could guess.
What’s more, Ji Feng is the little tz of the old Ji family, and he is more or less concerned about it.
Now Ji Feng suddenly called to talk about this matter, how could Li Baoyuan not understand, it must be the people of the Drug Administration to mess up, caused Ji Feng’s dissatisfaction, this Ji family’s little tz came to tell him!
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you’re doing. The drug regulator had actually gone to ask for someone else’s drug formula!
With just a little thought, Li Baoyuan immediately guessed that someone must have been behind this.
How could the foul play of this be hidden from Li Baoyuan’s eyes?
One must know that no one who can sit in the position of mayor of Jiangzhou is a simple person.
“Little Feng, I know about this matter.” Li Baoyuan said.
Ji Feng then understood that Li Baoyuan was planning to take action, only, when people at their level spoke, they wouldn’t have any pent-up killing aura, let alone guarantee anything, but often a simple sentence or two contained a lot of meaning.
“Then thank you, Uncle Li.” Ji Feng smiled.
“Mm! Remember to say hello to Minister Zhenhua and Elder Ji for me, I won’t be going over this year.” Li Baoyuan laughed.
“I will!” Ji Feng nodded slightly, it was indeed inappropriate for Li Baoyuan to come and pay his respects to the old man now, that way, his relationship with the Ji family would be known to anyone, and then the previous arrangements made by second uncle would be useless.
……
Just when Ji Feng was on his side of the phone, inside the office of Xiao’s pharmaceutical factory in Jiangzhou, it was a different scene.
The company’s business is a very important part of its business. The middle-aged man was dressed in a serious manner and looked like a leader. A girl dressed in a professional outfit was in charge of receiving these three people and pouring them tea.
After Xu Yuan ended her call with Ji Feng, she walked into the parlour and said to the middle-aged man, “Director Duan, I have already asked our boss for instructions, and what he means is that we must do our best to cooperate with the inspection team, and as long as the inspection team finds any violations of our rules, we are willing to accept any reasonable punishment and will correct them in the shortest possible time. ”
“Well! That’s good!” That Director Duan nodded in satisfaction and said, “It seems that your boss still understands things.”
“Manager Xu, since your boss has agreed, then bring us the prescription for inspection, and also, you cannot start work until the situation is ascertained!” A slightly taller young man in a black down jacket next to him said.
“Okay!”
Xu Yuan immediately nodded and said, “Please wait for a moment, I’ll ask someone to ask our technical supervisor to come over, I don’t know much about these technical things.”
She turned her head to the receptionist and said, “Go and get Kang Gong to come.”
“That’s good, be quick!” The young man in black nodded and exchanged glances with the other young man, both seeing the smirk in the other’s eyes. They couldn’t imagine that this manager was really good at scaring, a few simple words had scared her into obediently handing over the formula, it seemed that this one had gone well.
That Director Duan was much more calm than them, not overjoyed, but in his heart he was extremely satisfied with Xu Yuan’s performance and was secretly happy. When he came, he didn’t expect it to be so smooth, and thought that he would at least use his might to scare the people of the pharmaceutical factory, and if that didn’t work, he would have to use the name of the inspection team to keep the pharmaceutical factory shut down and force them to hand over the prescription.
“It seems that this charming woman still knows what she’s doing!” Director Duan looked at Xu Yuan’s charming face, and his heart couldn’t help but be on fire.
“Knock, knock, knock!” The knock on the door suddenly sounded and Kang Yuan pushed the door in, “General Manager, you’re looking for me.”
“That’s right.” Xu Yuan nodded, “Kang Gong, the leaders of the inspection team want to review our prescription for the Ox-Huang Antidote Pill, you give the prescription to these leaders.”
“This …… Okay!” Although Kang Yuan felt that there was something wrong, but after all, Xu Yuan was the general manager, and with outsiders around, he couldn’t ask too many questions, so he could only nod his head and agree.
“Wait a minute!” That Director Duan was the one who spoke up, “Bring that prescription of yours for whatever slimming powder, as well as the other prescriptions, all together, we need to review them all!”
