Chapter 519: Chapter 511: Attention from Leukemia Patients

Owen Warren’s eyes widened. He thought he must be hearing things.

“Thirteen?”

Chloe Sinclair nodded and confirmed, “That’s right. Thirteen.”

Their drug was actually very simple to produce, and the cost wasn’t high.

Besides, their original goal in developing the drug was never to make money.

At thirteen yuan, any patient could afford it without it being a burden.

But this time, Owen Warren frowned. “Isn’t that too low?”

Thirteen yuan!

What box of medicine doesn’t cost dozens of yuan these days?

He had never in his wildest dreams imagined that a miracle drug for leukemia would cost only thirteen yuan.

Then, a thought struck him, and Owen Warren’s brow furrowed. “Are you saying you’re going to waive the patent?”

He had assumed Chloe Sinclair would file for a patent.

Once that patent was approved, it would bring her not only fame but also an endless fortune.

Owen Warren swallowed hard. He thought about it from his own perspective. ‘If it were me, I’m not sure I could resist the temptation.’

That was a mountain of cash they were talking about.

After a moment of thought, Owen Warren said, “I’ll contact the media right away, then. You’ll probably have to appear on camera.”

After all, Chloe Sinclair was the company’s legal representative and the lead researcher; her appearance was a must.

Chloe Sinclair was, of course, aware of this. She said, “I’ve reviewed the research paper. Since we didn’t hear back from the international journals, I sent it to a domestic one first. Once it’s published, I expect there will be considerable controversy.”

The methodology for Chloe Sinclair’s research was incredibly simple, and many industry experts were bound to come out and challenge it.

Therefore, Chloe Sinclair had to be thoroughly prepared, leaving no room for the naysayers to find fault.

That afternoon, a national media outlet suddenly broke a story: Zenthia’s first domestically developed miracle drug for leukemia had been released.

The accompanying video showed the product’s packaging and included the drug information leaflet.

Seeing the word “leukemia,” people couldn’t help but click on the story.

However, most people were left completely baffled by the video’s content.

In the comments section—

“I don’t get it. Can someone who understands please explain what this video means?”

“Honestly, I don’t really get it either.”

“It’s full of technical jargon I can’t understand. Can an expert please explain?”

“Medical school professor here. The gist of the official announcement is that our nation’s miracle drug for leukemia has finally been successfully developed. We didn’t rely on any other country; it’s a homegrown achievement by our own people!”

“Holy shit, that’s amazing! Our country can develop these things on our own now.”

“In the past, our country had nothing, but I never expected we’d have so much now. Today, our nation can build airplanes, manufacture artillery, and control an unprecedented disaster within a couple of months. And now, this! Our country is so incredible, we’ve even developed a miracle drug for leukemia.”

“I just looked up the company. They have no prior major products. It’s like they came out of nowhere.”

“Maybe it’s a secret government research lab?”

“My mom has leukemia. She’s been on chemo for half a year, and recently, even Gleevec has stopped working. I don’t know how effective this new drug is, but the most important thing is the price. Our family has already sold everything we own and spent nearly three million. [Crying emoji]”

“I’m a leukemia patient myself. I had given up all hope, but I don’t know why… seeing this, now I desperately want to live. I feel like this drug could really save me!”

“I want to live!”

“Being sick isn’t the scary part. What’s terrifying is being poor. I just hope the government can help us out and that the price won’t be too high.”
