Chapter 713
For a while, countless reporters bombarded Loomis with all sorts of queries.
"Director Chiang, is Maritime Ocean Pharma really withdrawing from the Dragonville market?"
"Does Maritime Ocean Pharma have any follow-up measures in ce with regards to the supply of
the Alstom Antibiotic?"
"Director Chiang, did you really fall out with the leaders of Dragonville?"
Having faced with an abundance of questions, Loomis feigned a look of disappointment. He shifted
his gaze toward the leaders of Dragonville and said, "We did not want this to happen either. Some
people just don''t want to cooperate with Maritime Ocean Pharma, and there is nothing we can do
about it. Thus, we have no choice but to withdraw from Dragonville."
With this, Loomis looked at the leaders of the relevant departments. Obviously, the people he was
talking about had been them.
In an instant, he shifted the me on the leaders in question.
The reporters directed their microphones at the leaders, and flooded the leaders with all sorts of
questions.
"Mr. Hu, why did your hospital refuse to cooperate? Do you really not care about the health of your
patients?"

"Chief Qin, may I ask if your department is equipped with any kind of relevant countermeasures that
can fill the vacancy that Maritime Ocean Pharma will leave upon their departure from Dragonville?"
"In the face of the current shortage of Alstom Antibiotic, do you have any specific solution tobat
this issue?"
Facing the crowd''s intense questioning, those officers- in- charge grimaced, but they held their
stance and began their exnations.
However, before they could finish, there was a loud noiseing from the exit of the conference
hall. Consequently, a group of people holding banners barged in.
As soon as the people entered, they started yelling all kinds of slogans aloud.
"We are the family members of the patients. We are requesting for their lives to be saved!" "I want
an exnation from the board of the hospital. Why did you not save my father?!"
"We are asking for cooperation! We want the antibiotics to save the patients."
For a moment, the scene that was already chaotic, became more tumultuous.
On the stage, Loomis smiled, his expression getting increasingly conceited. After all, he was the
one who arranged these so- called family members of patients to put up a good show.
In the face of the family members, the officers-in-charge could only repeat the exnation they had
provided the reporters with.
However, these people refused to listen. They continued to protest endlessly.
"I don''t believe that the price of the medicine is that high! I think that you must have embezzled the
money!"
"That''s right. This is a huge city, so you must have collected an abundance of tax money every year.
Do we really not have the money to buy a bit of the medicine?"
"You just don''t want to save themoners, you''ve never treated us as human beings!"
"Quit! If you can''t do your job, step down." "I don''t care, these must have been your excuses."
"That''s right. The antibiotics came from abroad, to begin with. The antibiotics from Micovia ensures
good quality, it''s not a big deal if it''s slightly expensive. You just don''t want to save the lives of your
own people!"
Having to face these unreasonable remarks, the officers-in-charge were very distressed, and their
faces looked extremely gloomy. However, they could only exin it repeatedly.
Someone turned to Loomis and began to cry and beg.
"Director Chiang, those officers don''t care about us. I beg you, please save us!"
"Director Chiang, you work for a bigpany that does a lot of charity each year. Please help us
this time."
"We will definitely support Maritime Ocean Pharma in the future. Please, give us another chance."
"No matter how much money it costs, we will buy it. I just want to save my father."
Loomis pretended to be in a dilemma, "I have heard everyone''s thoughts. However, I can''t decide
on this alone. I will need to report the situation to my superiors. Please give me some time, alright?"
After that, Loomis fished out his mobile phone and made a phone call.
Consecutively, he hung up and announced, "Everyone, I just called our headquarters and reported
the situation in Dragonville. They have contacted the person- in- charge at Bald Eagle Pharma
company."
"They have heard about what happened here. They are also concerned. Therefore, they have
decided to make a certain concession. We will cut the price down by 10 percent."
"This price is already lower than the price marketed outside. We have done all that we can, but it
still boils down to the leaders of Dragonville on whether this city intends to cooperate with us."
While speaking, Loomis looked toward the people in charge.
Immediately, everyone eyes fell on them. The reporters and the so-called family members of the
patients all crowded over.
"They have alreadypromised by lowering the price. Hurry up and agree. What are you still
fussing over with?"
"How can you guys even be considered as local officials? The foreigners care more about our lives
than you!" "Maritime Ocean Pharma is being very sincere.
Why are you guys still in a dilemma?" "This is thest chance. It will be toote to regret it if
Maritime Ocean Pharma really quits Dragonville!"
When bombarded with such mes and criticisms, the expressions on the officers- in-charge of
Dragonville darkened.
How could the officers not see that this was all a facade Loomis put on to force them to sign the so-
called deal? The ten percent discount was not worth mentioning in the face of the quadrupled
increase of price.
Moreover, if they really bought the medicine at the price offered, Dragonville''s municipal medical
treasury would not be able to afford it.
Even so, if the officers exined it now, it would just be a false excuse in the eyes of the patients''
families.
The personnel were in a dilemma.
On the stage, the arrogant smile on Loomis'' face widened. His n worked, it had been more than
effective.
The public had gotten increasingly agitated, some people even started to provoke the officers- in-
charge. The anger and desperation that had been umted in the people of Dragonville over a
long time was at breaking point!
Loomis''s eyes gleamed, as if victory was almost within his grasp.
Just when he was secretly dancing in triumph, a stern voice resounded from the outside. "Quiet
down."
Then, a group of people in white coats sauntered into the venue with stern expressions.
The man leading the group was Fade.
When everyone notice Fade''s arrival, their gazes fixated on him.
The reporters came over one after another.
"President Chen, why are you here?"
"President Chen, can your group keep up with the supply of the Life Elixir Wine?"
"President Chen, I heard that you are leading the development of the substitute medicine. Any
updates?"
Loomis''s face fell when he saw Fade and the group of peopleing over. He looked at them
darkly as his expression turned gloomy.
