Chapter 715


    Fade sneered when he saw Loomis''s worried expression. He said loudly, "With regards to


    everyone''s safety, you don''t have to worry about it at all."


    "Mr. Chen, what do you mean?"


    "Do you have a way of acquiring the Alstom Antibiotic from other channels, Mr. Chen?"


    "Mr. Chen is a doctor. He can definitely cure our disease."


    "But Mr. Chen is only a one man team, how would he have the time to treat so many of us?"


    "Wasn''t there some news about Mr. Chen leading the production of an alternative medicine? Could


    it be-"


    Just as everyone was busy specting, the two men in white robes who had been standing behind


    Fade proceeded to retrieve a box of medicine, and then they walked onto the stage.


    Fade announced, "Everyone, you can stop worrying now. Our team has invented a medicine that is


    able to rece Alstom Antibiotics."


    As soon as he said that, the crowd burst into an uproar. Everyone was shocked.


    "They actually came up with one. I thought it was impossible?"


    "I heard that there were hundreds of experts in Capital City who have been researching for months,


    and they haven''t been able to make any progress. Dr. Chen has only been researching for a month,


    right? Isn''t this quick?"


    "Dr. Chen''s medical skills are excellent. I believe in him."


    "Dr. Chen, hurry and show us the medicine!"


    The audience was ecstatic. On the stage, Loomis''s face contorted. His facial muscles twitched a


    few times as his eyes were fixated on Fade.


    He had been reckless due to the patent rights for Alstom Antibiotics. There was no way that


    Chinese citizens could develop this kind of medicine.


    However, Fade''s announcement that he had sessfully developed a substitute medicine, also


    meant that he had overturned the trump card of Maritime Ocean Pharma. The news was even a


    threat to Bald Eagle Pharma, who was had been backing theirpany in Jade City.


    For a moment, Loomis panicked.


    He was hoping that what Fade said was fake and that he was only lying to stabilize the current


    situation. After all, Loomis knew very well how difficult it was to develop a new medicine.


    Fade knew that everyone was skeptical. He exined, "The medicine we have developed is made


    solely from Chinese medicine. It sells at a fair price and is more effective than the Alstom


    Antibiotics. Unlike its Western counterparts, there are no side effects."


    "We named this medicine the Ephedra Syrup. At 1 p.m. today, it will officially be released onto the


    market. You can buy it from major hospitals and pharmacies in Dragonville. The supply is


    guaranteed to be sufficient."


    The people present cheered, while Loomis''s expression became more and more gloomy.


    He was trying to figure out a way to defeat Fade.


    This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    However, while Loomis was still thinking, Fade said, "As to the effects of the Ephedra Syrup, I can


    give a live demonstration right now."


    As he spoke, Fade chose a random patient from the crowd. Under the watchful gaze of countless


    reporters, he gave the syrup to the patient.


    Within less than ten minutes, the patient''s cough and fever were obviously relieved, and the color


    returned to his face.


    The effect of the Ephedra Syrup was evident, which dispelled the suspicion in people''s hearts.


    Loomis could no longer stand still and do nothing about the situation. He rushed down from the


    stage, dialing hurriedly on his mobile phone. Obviously, he was reporting the situation to his


    superior.


    In his haste, he stumbled and fell to the ground with a crash, which immediately resulted in a burst


    ofughter from the crowd.


    However, Loomis did not care about the pain and embarrassment. Holding his mobile phone, he


    reported what had happened.


    As he left, the press conference he had nned had totally gotten out of hand.


    Fade immediately became the focus of everyone''s attention. The reporters and the family members


    of the patient rushed up one after another.


    Fade patiently answered their questions. At the same time, all the media in Dragonville began to


    promote the Ephedra Syrup.


    On the TV, the Inte, newspapers, magazines, posters and banners on the street, hospitals and


    pharmacies, all started promoting the Ephedra Syrup.


    The previously anxiety- ridden atmosphere in Dragonville had lightened up tremendously with this


    current development. Since it had been tried and tested, and proven to be highly effective, news of


    the Ephedra Syrup began to spread like wildfire across the city.


    Thanks to the Ephedra Syrup, the medical expenses of hospitals had decreased.


    As for Maritime Ocean Pharma, no one cared about their antibiotics.


    Moreover, unlike what was said in the previous press conference, some sources found out that they


    had no intention to withdraw from Dragonville at all.


    This confirmed everyone''s suspicions that Loomis Chiang had arranged the press conference to


    threaten Dragonville.


    The people in Dragonville were enraged. Many took to acts of vandalism to express their


    displeasure. The ss of thepany was often broken, and the doors and walls would be


    sshed with paint or even dung.


    Fade was busy with the mass production of the Ephedra Syrup as well the reporting of relevant


    research and development results.


    After all, Dragonville was not the only city short of the Alstom Antibiotics. The whole country was in


    urgent need of antibiotics. However, as Dragonville was the one being targeted, its situation had


    been especially severe.


    Fade wanted to distribute the Ephedra Syrup throughout the whole country as soon as possible as


    in order to solve the shortage of Alstom Antibiotics. In doing so, Bald Eagle Pharma could no longer


    threaten the


    pharmaceutical industry in China.


    On the other hand, Fade had a bigger idea.


    The Bald Eagle Pharma had made use of the patent rights of Alstom Antibiotics to threaten dozens


    of countries all over the world.


    Since he has now developed a substitute medicine which was even more effective, if he could


    promote the Ephedra Syrup throughout the whole world, he could take over the global market right


    away. This was especially true considering that some countries were under a simr threat whereby


    Bald Eagle Pharma had been monopolizing the market with their patent rights.


    If things went as he nned, Fade might be a magnate in the pharmaceutical industry that


    couldpete with Bald Eagle Pharma.


    However, the idea was too massive to be realized in a short span of time. Therefore, the most


    important thing to do right now was to distribute the Ephedra Syrup across the whole country.


    Fade didn''t know much about bureaucratic procedures, so he entrusted this part of the job to


    Daphne Tao and Principal Hu, while he poured all of his attention into the production of the Ephedra


    Syrup.
