Zenith did not say much after hearing these words. He only shook his head calmly. “I didn’t create this prescription, so I don’t have the right to publicize this prescription.”
At this moment, a young man in a suit and leather shoes walked up to Zenith. His arrogant gaze was filled with disdain as he glanced at Zenith. Then, he said with a thick accent, “Zenith, right? My name is Anthony, the president of Hath Pharmaceuticals in Country H.”
“Hath? The top pharmaceutical company in Country H?” Zenith touched his chin and pondered. “It’s also a very capable company.”
Anthony said very seriously, “Doctor Zenith, everyone knows that Chinese medicine is actually from our country. You should know about this too. Our company is the most powerful pharmaceutical company in Asia. We have many drugs circulating worldwide under us. We have such a powerful drug development system and production level. You should tell us the Chinese medicine production method you learned from our culture. Only we can bring Chinese medicine to greater heights. What do you think?”
Zenith shook his head when he heard Anthony’s words and rejected him. “I remember that the medicine in your country wasn’t created by your country. Not to mention that many of the patents for the research and development of drugs under you aren’t in your hands. Those drugs were obtained by Chinese traditional medicine! I only grasped a little.”
Some of the people present who had some understanding of Chinese medicine felt that Anthony was too arrogant. Who didn’t know that Chinese medicine was an ancient prescription in China? Country R and Country H were deeply affected by China’s culture. Hath Corporation also had Chinese investments in the beginning, but they became independent after they expanded and became stronger.
Therefore, Hath Corporation’s reputation was very bad for a period of time because they plagiarized the prescription. They even applied for a patent and said that they had developed the prescription themselves to produce medicine and sell it worldwide. They even said that Chinese medicine was actually their country’s medical heritage.
Such behavior was despised by people who believed in Chinese medicine in various countries.
Unexpectedly, Anthony smiled smugly and said, “Don’t joke around, Doctor Zenith. I have to correct your mistake. All our medicines have never used Chinese medicine. They were all developed by the national doctors of Country H.”
“Stop joking. Are you only willing to admit it if I tell you the ingredients of your best-selling medicine?” Zenith was very dissatisfied with Anthony’s attitude.
Anthony did not expect Zenith to reject his good intentions even though he had given him a chance.
After hearing Zenith’s words, Andy denied it. “We’re a modern technology company. We definitely don’t need to know those things that have been passed down from thousands of years ago. Every drug we have has clinical applications and scientific basis. A big company like ours is looking for you to cooperate because we’re giving you face. Don’t be ungrateful.”
Hearing Anthony’s disregard for Chinese medicine, the other Chinese medicine practitioners present criticized him, but Anthony did not have the slightest intention of reflecting.
“Do you know how much money we can give you? That money is enough for you to live a good life!” Anthony said angrily.
“I, Zenith, have never practiced medicine for money. I hope you won’t taint the greatness of medicine with money.” Zenith continued with a serious expression, “Recently, I’ll publish some articles on drug analysis. I’ll organize the best-selling medicines of large pharmaceutical companies like Hath and Linds in detail. I hope everyone can take a look when you’re free.”
Anthony looked at Zenith in disbelief. “You didn’t even listen to how much I planned to pay! Do you know how much it is? That’s 100 million. If you have this money, you can develop better medicine! I bought the prescription with money. What’s wrong with that?”
“I’m sorry, it’s very troublesome to make that medicine, and my performance is unstable, so I won’t publicize the prescription at the moment, and I don’t plan to sell it.” Zenith frowned unhappily. How could he hand such a precious thing to such a person who didn’t care about culture for a little money?
“You’re really stubborn.” Anthony took a deep breath. “Since you’re unwilling to give up the prescription, I won’t force you. I just hope that you won’t let this medicine rot in your hands.”
Zenith did not want to waste his breath on him anymore. He stood up and gestured for him to leave. “You don’t have to worry about this. We are very respectful to medicine. I will also give it to those who need it regularly. I also have a disciple. I will definitely not let the prescription be lost.”
