When the negotiation intelligence between Rolf and Huang Jiacai was transmitted back to Europe, the eting room that had just reached a consensus on "joint negotiations" fell into debate again.
"Universal access? Tiered pricing? Global unified frawork?" The bald German widened his eyes, as if hearing a fairy tale, "Who does he think he is? The World Health Organization or God? On what basis does he set global rules?"
"This is an insult to our comrcial logic!" The face of the French CEO turned red, "Pricing based on per capita GDP? What extent will our profit margins be compressed to?"
"Even more terrifying is that he explicitly refused the exclusivity agreent." The Swiss director’s face was grim, "This ans he intends to put us all, including BG, on the sa starting line, to compete under his rules. The competition between us will beco naked and brutal, while he stands on high holding the technical arbitration rights."
The original Arican president, with sharp eyes behind gold-rimd glasses. He listened silently to everyone’s anger and complaints, his fingers quickly sliding over the tablet, repeatedly reading the intelligence. Gradually, the anger on his face was replaced by contemplation.
"Quiet!" His voice was not loud, yet it instantaneously quieted the noisy eting room.
Everyone looked at him.
"Gentlen, ladies," he took off his glasses and rubbed his temples, his voice weary but his thoughts exceptionally clear, "We are being swayed by emotions again; Huang Jiacai’s behavior precisely proves his ambition and foresight."
He put his glasses back on and looked around at everyone: "He saw through the essence of our so-called joint delegation - just a group driven by fear, trying to huddle for warmth to secure better conditions in negotiations. He completely denied us that opportunity and instead directly announced the new rules of the ga."
"Why is he doing this?" Soone asked, bewildered.
"Because ti is on his side." The Arican president coldly stated, "Professor Yang Ping’s technological lead is evident, otherwise how could Li Gaoyang and BG have turned to them exclusively? If we wait another day, more market reputation and stock prices will be lost. And Huang Jiacai can use this ti to slowly select collaborators or even support new, more obedient partners. Don’t forget, we are certainly not the only ones coveting this technology globally."
He paused and emphasized: "More importantly, the universal access and tiered pricing he proposed stands on the absolute moral and opinion high ground. Once made public, it will gain the favor and support of developing countries, even ordinary patients in Europe and Arica and so dical insurance payers. By then, if we stubbornly insist on a high-profit model, we will face not only technological backwardness but also moral condemnation and surging public pressure. That is the true disaster; this is an open strategy."
The venue fell silent again, but this ti within the silence, the anger was cooling and reason was returning.
"So... we can only accept his frawork?" The German asked with difficulty.
"Not can only, but must." The Arican president corrected, "Within this frawork, striving for the most advantageous position and terms for us is now the only wise choice we have. BG has already gone; it has its chips, and we have ours — the advantage of joining forces, a broader European and Arican mature market network, deeper localized political and business relationships, and still leading auxiliary technology in so niche fields. We want Huang Jiacai to see that choosing us allows his universal access frawork to be implented faster and more smoothly, reducing friction and risk."
He stood up, once again demonstrating decisiveness: "Imdiatly adjust the strategy! Our joint delegation no longer targets exclusivity or priority, but prove to Ruixing that we are the most capable and sincere partner alliance for implenting its global universal access strategy! Collect our respective past cases in reducing dical costs and promoting drug accessibility and social responsibility reports. Organize specific resources and tilines we can provide for rapid approvals, dical insurance access, and channel penetration. We want to exchange strength and service for a starting position in this new ga!"
"At the sa ti," a trace of determination flashed through his eyes, "Privately contact our pharmaceutical regulatory agencies, authoritative dical associations, and key opinion leaders in various countries, laying the groundwork of opinion and technical foundation for K Therapy’s special nature and humanitarian exemption entry into the fast review channel."
New consensus was rapidly ford on a more sober and also more helpless realist foundation. The old giants began to awkwardly and eagerly learn to dance under the new rules.
...
Nandu, Ruixing Group Headquarters.
Song Zimo and Tang Shun knocked on the door and ca in, holding new files in hand.
"President Huang, our preliminary evaluation is out." Song Zimo placed a brief dical evaluation summary on the table, "Li Gaoyang’s condition is indeed not suitable for another surgery. The tumor’s recurrence is located dangerously, with extensive infiltration. K Therapy is theoretically feasible but poses uncertainties, and the greatest obstacle remains the access rules. According to our experintal rules, since Li Gaoyang is a United States citizen, our K Therapy must obtain clinical trial qualifications in the United States for Li Gaoyang to beco a clinical trial volunteer."
Tang Shun added: "Furthermore, our legal and clinical registration departnts jointly assessed that even if operating under the na of ’humanitarian rescue’ or ’ergency clinical trial,’ the risk of making an exception for Li Gaoyang alone is extrely high. Previous lessons were profound, involving legal risks, public opinion risks, and possibly being used by competitors to attack us for strict rules and data falsification."
