Charlie saw Liam was a bit nervous. With the intention of diverting the topic, he smiled lightly and asked, "How's your pharmaceutical manufacturing business doing so far?
Liam looked straight at Charlie and reported, "Master Wade, the recent developments of the pharmaceutical factories are considered stable. But we've encountered some obstacles in the expansion of new markets.”
"What were the obstacles?"
Charlie felt weird. With the Weaver family's pharmaceutical manufacturing strength, there should be very few competitors in the domestic pharmaceutical industry.
But with new developments in drugs, as long as one could find a good prescription, there should be no major problems.
However, if the prescription was ineffective, it would b e meaningless no matter how influential the pharmaceutical factory was.
Liam immediately answered, "The Weaver family's pharmaceutical company has recently invested heavily in the development of a new proprietary Chinese medicine. The main function is to exorcise evil and reduce dampness, stomach powder to cool the blood and relieve the heart, as well as to treat
stomach symptoms such as stomach pain, stomach acid, and retching."
Charlie nodded and said, "Stomach disease is a common illness nowadays. As far as I'm concerned, there are very few local pharmaceutical factories which can produce medication for the stomach. Apart from Pepto-Bismol, which has some fame, I have not heard of other reputable manufacturers with medicine for treating stomach diseases. Judging from this situation, I believe there isn't much hindrance for you, right?"
Liam frowned and explained, "The reason I developed this medicine was because I've seen many people who work in the city socializing too much. Many young working adults are diagnosed with stomach disease at a young age. Sensing a huge potential for a broad customer base, I led a team to solve this problem and found a suitable prescription from countless ancient prescriptions. But I had never thought that the foreign companies would be a step ahead of us and had employed our ancient prescriptions as a foundation to optimize theirs."
Charlie glowered, "Foreign companies? Plagiarizing our ancient Chinese medicine? Aren’t those companies specializing in Western medicine?"
Liam shook his head and said, "It isn't Western medicine. But Kobayashi Pharma obtained an ancient prescription from within our country. Then, they developed a type of stomach powder based on ancient methods. The effectiveness of this powder is much greater compared to ours, and that's why the market is now dominated by Kobayashi Pharma. This i s very unfavourable to us."
