Stepmother: I Am Asked To Give A Kidney To My Half-Brother-Chapter 457 - Once Bitten, Twice Shy

Although the preventive medicine by This Place had gone through the review period, things did not go as smoothly as they had expected. Instead, due to various reasons, the medicine sold was not enough to make up for the money they had invested, especially for Pfizer, which was already on the verge of collapse.

As for Lu Ming Corporation, they had also lost a lot of money. After all, they had taken the lead in this collaboration.

This time, the people from the finance department were finally anxious! They also felt that it was ridiculous. The medicine was clearly close to perfection, so why were there still so many people pestering them? Could it be that they were taking advantage of the company? Ever since the Lu Ming Corporation officially released the medicine, many of their peers were jealous.

If not for the fact that Lu Ming Corporation did not need this money for the time being, they might have already looked for Lu Ming in their office because they were too anxious.

However, Pitt, who was far away across the ocean, was not so lucky! He looked at the account book filled with deficits and did not know how to say anything for a moment! He slowly exhaled. Why did such a situation happen? He could not understand! But he could not care too much. The situation would only get worse!

Therefore, he immediately called his partner.

“Hello? Hello, I’m Pitt from Pfizer. Can you ask your boss to chat with me? If he’s not free, can you help me pass on my message? This matter is extremely urgent. I hope you can think of a solution as soon as possible so that I can cooperate.”

…

Chu Jinyu was sitting on the sofa, reading the contract with one hand and eating the pastries that had just been delivered with the other. From time to time, she would sigh. Her husband was focused on vetting the documents, forming a rather harmonious scene. However, it did not last long before it was interrupted by a sudden knock on the door!

“Chairman Lu, I have something to report to you.”

This voice… should be He Xiaopeng, right? If I remember correctly, I’ve asked him to do new research, right? Why is he still free to look for me? Could it be that he has encountered some trouble with the funds? Or does he need to discuss with me if he has encountered a difficult problem??Thinking of this, Lu Ming happened to meet his wife’s gaze.

Chu Jinyu read the message tacitly and said, “Come in.”

Hearing the lady boss’s voice, He Xiaopeng was stunned at first, but he quickly adjusted himself. He pushed open the door and stood straight in the middle of the office. He said, “Ever since This Place No. 3 was put on sale, it has never been able to reach its target sales although the number has been very stable. So most of the preventive drugs can only be placed in the warehouse.

......

Not only will we not be able to earn back the cost, but we will also cause considerable harm to the company because of this. Not long ago, Mr. Pitt called and said this. In order to prevent the news from being spread wrongly, I specially searched online and found that the main reason was that the people don’t trust foreign drugs.”

He said everything he wanted to express in one breath and showed his boss a blog he had just seen. Chu Jinyu leaned over curiously and took a look. The first thing she saw was the ID of the blog—Spring Blossoms? It was obvious that the posters were older people. 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺

Immediately after, she read down line by line, and her expression became more and more serious. As for Lu Ming, his mind was filled with question marks. He only felt puzzled. What did they mean that foreign drugs were not good? The purpose of bringing them in was to kill the people of the country? He was not a fool. If such an obvious problem really happened, would his Lu Ming Corporation still operate in the country?

In the end, they even brought up the topic of love and patriotism? They even used Xingwei’s fake medicine as a lesson and led a large group of onlookers who did not know the truth astray! The result was that This Place No. 3 was in the trending searches again. The people who wanted to buy it entered a wait-and-see state again! This operation really made him numb!

What kind of weird brain could connect these things?

Putting aside the fact that his preventive medicine was at the top of the pyramid in the world, his original intention of making this medicine was purely to save people. Who would have thought that there would be such a huge backlash? He even suspected that someone had added fuel to the fire. Otherwise, why would this matter appear so quickly?

As this blog post itself was extremely biased, there were naturally countless radical comments below!

[Have you forgotten that this medicine is also thanks to the domestic companies? Those who don’t know will be fooled by you! Please calm down and don’t be led astray! Lu Ming Corporation is a real company with a conscience. If you don’t want to believe it, you can test if this medicine is edible!]

[I’m allergic to the word ‘conscience’ now. When Xingwei released the preventive medicine, a large number of people on the Internet also spread the news about how powerful this medicine was. In the end? How many people disappeared from this world? Xingwei didn’t even pay any price for it. Compared to them, Lu Ming Corporation is much bigger. If something happens, can anyone here really compete with him?]

[Did anyone buy This Place No. 3? I specially went to buy medicine early in the morning. After I hurriedly took it, I kept having diarrhea! Do you think this medicine is not up to standard? It must be fake like Xingwei’s, right? Oh my god, can this country still recover? It’s so foul! I request that we definitely not let Lu Ming Corporation off! Investigate thoroughly!]

[A certain hot comment. I want to ask you! Can you be at ease just because it’s a domestic company? Previously, we went to buy Xingwei Medical Group’s medicine because we were at ease. Now, people have died for no reason! If there’s a problem, will you help us collect their corpses? People overseas aren’t so kind. It’s already good enough that they don’t throw stones at us! They want to help? I think they’re not helping!]

[Maybe he secretly added a few medicinal herbs that are harmful to the human body. Don’t buy them!]

…

Chu Jinyu was filled with anger just by looking at these words. She said indignantly, “Why should we be blamed for Xingwei’s mistake? First, we didn’t give those people any ideas, and second, we didn’t give them any prescriptions! Aren’t they going too far? Those who don’t know better will think that we did something heinous!

The effect of the medicine we made is very strong, but because of a few bouts of diarrhea, they started to suspect that there’s something wrong with our medicine?! That’s nonsense! Why don’t they say that their bodies are too weak? If I find out that they’re in the same industry, I definitely won’t let these people off!”

As she spoke, she raised her little fist to prove that she was not joking! In the next second, she said tentatively, “Brother Lu Ming, don’t take these words to heart. We did nothing wrong. It’s all these people’s fault!”
