Chapter 267 If you want to fight, then fight

On CNN TV station, the glamorous hostess faced the camera and introduced the visiting guests eloquently.

Kelly is the ace host of CNN, and the talk show "Kelly Show" hosted by CNN is very popular in Eagle Country.

At this moment, she is wearing heavy makeup and looking refreshed, and she is conducting a live interview with the guests on the scene.

And the subject of her interview, who was sitting on the opposite side, was unexpectedly Dr. Zheng Feng, who had been stealing the limelight recently.

Zheng Feng smiled and looked at the camera with a calm attitude, ready to answer the other party's questions at any time.

"The most sensational thing recently is the patent infringement lawsuit filed by the Broad Institute against Sanqing Group. The lawyers of both sides are wrestling with this case. The plaintiff has obviously prepared sufficient evidence and is fully confident of winning the case. .”

"Because Sanqing Group's CRISPR technology is banned globally, the Europa Drug Administration also rejected the clinical application of Sanqing's thalassemia gene drug on the grounds of patent infringement."

"At the same time, Sanqing was also sued for patent infringement in China and asked to stop selling related drugs."

"Obviously, this pharmaceutical giant, which has risen rapidly in recent years, has suffered unprecedented difficulties and is likely to lose the lawsuit globally and pay high compensation and fines."

"Dr. Zheng Feng, as the plaintiff, what do you think about this? Is there anything you want to say to Sanqing?"

When the question came, Zheng Feng lifted his spirits, looked solemn, and immediately said the prepared answer slowly.

"In this regard, I just want to reiterate the importance of patent protection. Only by respecting knowledge can science and technology continue to develop. Especially in the field of basic scientific research, many major discoveries are the result of scientists' hard work and are their lifetime academic achievements. Such Intellectual property rights must be protected to be worthy of their hard work over the years."

"As a pharmaceutical company, Sanqing Group has always had a good reputation. It is a pity that they chose to use such a method to get in front of the public. It seems that we have to re-examine their past reputation to see if there are other false behaviors for fame."

"The amount of money and energy spent to sue such a big-name pharmaceutical company is astronomical, and it is unknown whether the lawsuit can be won. Fortunately, Eagle Country's patent protection is perfect, so we can get justice and restore the order of the scientific community .”

"However, we are not optimistic about the patent litigation in China. As we all know, China's intellectual property protection is very poor, and various piracy and copycats are rampant. In this case, we file a lawsuit just to fight for justice."

"As for your question, is there anything I want to say to Sanqing?"

"I just want to say that, as a large multinational company, Sanqing, please be an individual and stop infringing on other people's patents. In Eagle Country, using doctrine is not feasible."

"You earn so much from selling medicines every year, even if you invest a little more in research and development, it is enough to take the road of independent research and development."

"Finally, I have a sentence I want to send to Mr. Wei of Sanqing. This is an ancient Chinese saying, which is very suitable for him."

"You are a beautiful lady, why do you want to be a thief?"

Zheng Feng shook his head and sighed, and said this well-known sentence in Chinese in Chinese.

Then it was translated into English again.

"Wow!" Kaili exclaimed with an exaggerated expression, "This sentence is indeed very appropriate. As far as I know, Sanqing's strength in new drug research and development is obvious to all, and it has also developed some genetic drugs, so I am also very curious. , why would they do this?"

"Hehe," Zheng Feng said with a look of disdain: "Sanqing does have strength in chemical pharmaceuticals, I don't deny this, but in biopharmaceuticals, they have just started, and the genetic drugs they have developed are very simple and not complicated. In particular, SMA gene drugs have borrowed from Novartis' drugs and are no longer considered original drugs. However, this kind of reference is normal in the industry, and they are not as original as our academia."

"As for why they do this, it's normal, because my CRISPR technology is very strong, it is the most powerful gene editing tool today, and it is also the most widely used gene editing technology. No technology can compare with it. Say, they have no choice."

His face is full of pride, and his speech and demeanor reveal an invincible self-confidence, which is undoubtedly very convincing to others.

If Kelly hadn't read the relevant information and was very clear about the ins and outs of the matter, she would have believed him completely.

She maintained a smile on her face, and secretly cursed "shameless" in her heart, but today's interview was originally intended to pursue Zheng Feng, publicize the matter well, and at the same time create momentum for the launch of Pfizer's new drug.

So she moved on to the next topic without a trace: "Wow, no wonder, I finally understand Sanqing's infringement."

"With such advanced technology, it is logical to jointly develop genetic medicine with Pfizer. Can you introduce this new drug to us?"

"This is a cross-border cooperation between academia and industry. It can be said to be very successful. This new drug..."

Zheng Feng talked eloquently and hyped up Pfizer's new drug, blowing it up as a magic medicine that can cure all diseases.

Kelly couldn't bear it anymore, her talk show has always been known for her sharp and aggressive words.

It can be said to be "not sharp, not sharp tongue, or give me death".

Although this interview requires not to ask any outrageous questions, she still wants to follow her nature and struggle a little longer.

"Maybe you can ask a less sharp and milder question. Anyway, the interview is coming to an end, so it's not a violation of the agreement."

Kelly said to herself secretly, there was something instinctive in her heart that was ready to move, eager to try.

So she couldn't help asking: "It is said that this new drug has many similarities with Sanqing's gene drug? Does Pfizer have any so-called 'reference' during the research and development process? You also said that this kind of behavior is common in the industry. very common."

Zheng Feng's smile froze, and he quickly realized: "In fact, we have cooperated with Pfizer in the early morning on thalassemia gene medicine. Our research and development time is much earlier than that of Sanqing. You know, we use the same tool. It is normal to have some similarities, and if we really want to talk about borrowing, it is they borrowing from us."

Next, Kelly stopped talking too much, but asked questions according to the prior agreement, allowing Zheng Feng to play freely.

The interview seems to be coming to an end.

Suddenly, an excited voice sounded in Kelly's headset, and it was the backstage director who was yelling.

"Oh, my God, it's so explosive, Kelly, don't end the show, we have received an amazing piece of news, we must take advantage of Zheng Feng's presence and ask it face to face, so that the effect of the show will definitely explode."

"I can't believe it. Just now, Sanqing Group announced the launch of a brand-new gene editing tool, and said that the thalassemia gene medicines that will be marketed in the future will use new technologies. When you ask, I will immediately Bring the news to the screen."

"Remember, you must make a surprise attack, tell Zheng Feng immediately, and then ask him what he thinks, haha, if this incident comes out, the agreement can be damned, Kaili, fire all the power, it's up to you if you can break the ratings record .”

Kelly was taken aback for a moment, but after all she was a professional with excellent professionalism, and she reacted almost within a few seconds.

She immediately turned to the camera and announced the news with a look of shock on her face.

"Dr. Zheng Feng, I'm sorry to interrupt right away. We just received an urgent news. The Sanqing Group has just announced in a high-profile way that it has successfully developed a new fourth-generation gene editing technology. It is said that their archaea in the Antarctic ice Discovered and improved a powerful gene-editing protease in this study to achieve this result."

"Next, Sanqing has fully upgraded the gene-poor drug by using this brand-new technology, and the clinical performance is very amazing."

"In this way, they have their own gene editing technology, which will perfectly circumvent the patent clamping of CRISPR technology."

"Dr. Zheng Feng, what do you think about this?"

Kelly finished speaking in one breath, and then looked at Zheng Feng. At the same time, all the cameras and lights turned to him.

And on the big screen at the scene, the news about Sanqing just now scrolled.

Zheng Feng was stunned for a moment, he didn't answer at all, but stared straight at the news on the big screen, with an unbelievable expression on his face, as if he had seen a ghost.

The air in the studio instantly froze.

Everyone held their breath, as quiet as a chicken.

All eyes and all cameras were focused on Zheng Feng, waiting for his reaction.

A minute passed.

Zheng Feng suddenly burst into an angry exclamation: "This is impossible, absolutely impossible, this must be fake news!"

His face turned pale in an instant, fine sweat oozed from his forehead, and his whole body became distraught.

And all of this was faithfully recorded by the camera and disseminated.

Kelly said kindly: "Dr. Zheng Feng, I understand your shock when you saw the news. In fact, when I heard this, I couldn't believe it, but our Huaxia reporter has confirmed the truth of this matter." Authenticity, what do you think about that?"

Zheng Feng's eyes straightened, and he was no longer as proud and confident as before.

He hesitated for a long time before choking out a sentence: "I need to see more detailed information before I can make a judgment."

Kelly smiled slightly, and threw out another piece of news: "By the way, that Mr. Wei from Sanqing also had a word for you at the press conference."

She looked at the picture on the screen and read the pinyin word by word.

"If you want to fight, then fight!"

Then he showed a meaningful smile: "Fortunately, we also have a reporter who understands Chinese, who translated the meaning of this sentence."

"It is said that this sentence came from Genghis Khan of the Mongolian Empire. He sent an envoy to Huacizimo to discuss a trade agreement, but the enemy not only refused, but also cut off the envoy's head and sent it back. He was not angry. A second envoy was sent, but this envoy was also humiliated and rushed back."

"So, he finally got angry and wrote a letter of war, which contained these six words. A few years later, Genghis Khan destroyed the largest empire in Central Asia."

"Dr. Zheng, from this point of view, Mr. Wei is really angry this time, and he has also written a war against you and the Broad Institute."

"What is your response to this?"

"In this genetic technology battle, do you have any chance of winning?"

"Will this deal a serious blow to the launch of Pfizer's new thalassemia drug?"

Kaili asked questions like a cannonball, and the cannon fire was fierce, which made Zheng Feng feel ashamed for a while.

Fortunately, he has been fighting for a long time and has rich experience, so he reacted quickly, and at this time he has recovered a little composure.

He looked as usual, and there was nothing unusual about him.

It's just that the gaffe just now was faithfully recorded by the camera and spread throughout the world.

Zheng Feng looked at Kaili and knew that she was fanning the flames, so he immediately denied it.

"It's a civilized society now, and things like afternoon letters are outdated. Besides, we have never declared war on the Three Qings. How can we talk about war? As for dealing with it, we will take appropriate legal measures."

"Pfizer is a more powerful pharmaceutical company than Sanqing. They also cooperate with Sanqing on anticancer drugs, so we have no fundamental conflict. It is also a very normal business practice for both parties to compete with each other for the same drug. .”

Yes, he was cowardly.

After Sanqing released the fourth-generation gene editing technology, he knew that things had completely escaped his control and were heading in an unforeseen direction.

They can no longer make up their minds about patents.

That being the case, only those who know current affairs are heroes.

From now on, you should leave room for maneuver in every sentence, and you can't do things to the extreme.

As for the follow-up response, he had to go to the teacher's office again.

But Kelly didn't seem to want to let him go: "Dr. Zheng, you sent a sentence to Mr. Wei just now. Isn't this a gauntlet in another sense?"

Zheng Feng stared at her, and said slowly: "That's just a friendly joke among Chinese people."

After finishing speaking, he looked at his phone, and then said apologetically, "I'm sorry, this interview will end here, I'm going back to deal with emergencies."

*****

Hunan Province, Shashi, inside a dilapidated private house.

Li Han was staring blankly at the screen, and dozens of younger brothers around him were also sitting in front of the computer, waiting for an order from their boss.

Seeing that the boss didn't respond for a long time, the little brother said curiously: "Boss, brothers are all ready."

"Don't worry, according to the request of the patron, we have already concocted a lot of copywriting, and the navy is also ready. It will definitely be able to blackmail the Sanqing on the Internet."

Li Han is the person in charge of the largest navy company in China, and also the owner of many marketing accounts on the Internet.

Last week he received an order from abroad.

The funder had just one request, to send out all his navy and marketing accounts to blackmail Sanqing's patent infringement case on the Internet, and it must be thoroughly blacked out, so that all netizens will believe it.

Just like online trolls spraying chrysanthemums as prison factories and fans spraying chrysanthemums as the navy, Sanqing's patent infringement case should be completely nailed to the pillar of shame.

The funder is rich and powerful, and directly gave five million in funding.

This made him extremely ecstatic. After completing this order, he will have no worries about food and clothing for at least a year.

He also hesitated at first, and he is not stupid, knowing that the money is more or less hot.

This is not domestic friendly businessmen investing in black peers, it can be regarded as internal fighting among themselves.

He felt a little bit sorry for the overseas funder who asked to blackmail a domestically-produced national enterprise.

However, he has always claimed to be a reasonable person, and he feels that his stirring up troubles on the Internet belongs to freedom of speech.

And the black people are so black that there is a bottom line, at least he would never do the kind of thing that the Internet violent poor people killed.

Although Sanqing has a good reputation, objectively speaking, it is indeed a patent infringement.

It's not a big deal to make a black mark on this, but to be honest.

In the name of promoting the protection of China's patent rights, he can also save the country with curves and find another way to go black.

As long as you be careful, be objective, grasp the vital points, hit the target, and don't accidentally hurt other aspects, I hope netizens can't find faults.

Li Han comforted himself in this way, and carefully drafted a copywriting to discredit Sanqing.

But at this time!

He looked at the new generation of gene editing technology announced by Sanqing on the Internet, and he was dumbfounded.

"Boss, what time is it, we have to speed up the pace."

The little brother urged anxiously, and then let out a smirk: "I've long since disliked these idiot fans, and they even call themselves guards, let's see how I spray them to death!"

Snapped!

The next moment, Li Han turned his head, with a cold light in his eyes, and slapped his younger brother loudly on the forehead.

"Spray! I know spray, spray your sister!"

Li Han gritted his teeth, pointed at his younger brother and cursed: "This is the glory of the Chinese nation, do you understand?"

"Can you guarantee that you won't get sick in the future?"

"Ah?" The younger brother was stunned.

Li Han was heartbroken and slapped himself hard: "I'm really not a person, but I want to attack such a high-tech and conscientious pharmaceutical company. If I really do it, do I still have the face to go home and face my parents?" ?”

"Apart from Sanqing, which company in Huaxia can continue to break through under comprehensive suppression and slap Swollen Eagle Nation in the face."

"Also, look at this gauntlet, how well-spoken and domineering it is, it's worthy of Mr. Wei."

After finishing speaking, he said coldly, "Return the deposit."

"In addition, we re-wrote the copywriting to reveal this matter, expose the other party's conspiracy, and then praise Sanqing's latest technological breakthroughs, and beat the gongs and drums for Sanqing's upcoming battle."

"Damn it, these guys from abroad are disgusting. We managed to produce such a strong technology company in China, and let me blackmail my compatriots. I won't do it!"

"Don't say five million, one hundred million is not enough!"

He paused every word: "Huaxia people don't cheat Huaxia people."

A vicious growl sounded in the room: "Boys, work hard, praise me well, praise me hard, and I must boast some hot money."

"This boiling patriotic meal, I will definitely eat it."
