A Valiant Life

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

There were many distributors who hoarded supplies of ACTH. They were spread all over the country. This medicine hadn’t been used much in the past but later on, experiments proved that this medicine was very effective against infantile spasms.

And although infantile spasms weren’t very common, if you added up all the cases across the country, it wasn’t a small number.

More importantly, this medicine had been too cheap in the past and they had been unprofitable. Hence, when ACTH became a lifesaver for infants, the distributors started to have some ideas.

They immediately started hoarding the medicine.

Even some hospitals couldn’t manage to obtain the medicine. It became one of the hardest medications to obtain.

When Lin Fan sent his Weibo post, it drew the attention of many people.

At the same time, in a WeChat group, which was the group of distributors, some people started discussing.

“Did you all see Master Lin’s Weibo? He says that he’s going to start developing this medication and he’s telling us to sell our stocks immediately. Otherwise, they will become worthless.”

“Hehe, how awesome. He nearly scared me to death.”

“I’ve hoarded hundreds of boxes but I’m going to use them to gain riches. Let him slowly develop his medicine.”

“Right now, the price for this medicine is pretty good. One box is priced at 3800. I wonder how many people will buy it.”

“Last time, I sold a few boxes at 2000 each.”

“Don’t worry, he won’t be able to develop it. This is a hormone, how could he develop it? Is he going to rely on Chinese medicine?”

“Anyway, we can’t possibly unload all this. If we manage to sell all of it, we would be rich.”

“Do what you need to, everyone. Don’t be scared by this guy.”

“He really loves meddling in others’ business. Why won’t God just get rid of him? Getting in the way of other people’s wealth is unforgivable. I really can’t stand him.”

…

To these distributors, Lin Fan’s action was really despicable.

Getting in the way of one’s path to wealth was as bad as killing one’s parents.

But some distributors were afraid. They were fearful of Master Lin’s capabilities. If he really managed to develop it, they really might not be able to sell the medicine anymore.

Suddenly.

The chat group went crazy.

“Elder Wang, are you f*cking insane? How much are you selling it for on the Internet? 80 for one box? Have you gone mad?”

Elder Wang: “I’m out. I don’t want to mess around with Master Lin.”

“Elder Wang, you’re crazy. You’re ruining our market. Stop selling it. Give it all to me. I’ll pay 200 for each box.”

“I’ll take them too. You’re spoiling the market price. Are you trying to harm us?”

Elder Wang saw that they all wanted to take his stocks and he didn’t hesitate at all. “Alright, if you guys want it, I’ll sell it to you. I’m getting rid of them right now. I have a bad feeling about this.”

This kind of situation became quite common in this WeChat group. Gradually, a few more people came out and agreed to sell their stocks to the others.

They didn’t want to stockpile anymore. Master Lin’s words had frightened them.

If what he had said really happens, this medicine would become worthless in their possession. Hence, to be safe, they decided not to go against Master Lin.

…

The next day!

Zhao Ming Qing waited for his teacher in the school’s research lab. He was filled with excitement because he was about to be immersed in research.

He believed that, as long as he had his teacher, they would definitely develop the medicine successfully. But it was only at 9 AM that Lin Fan walked in leisurely.

This time, the development of the prescription basically had no difficulty to it. It was exceptionally simple.

But even if it was so simple, Lin Fan had to give a feeling that this problem was very challenging, the research was very difficult, and it had to be discussed thoroughly.

Otherwise, if he just solved the problem easily, Zhao Ming Qing would definitely feel that they could keep on going and tackle some other diseases while they were at it.

If that really happened, then it would be f*cked up.

“Teacher, the medicinal ingredients have all been prepared,” Zhao Ming Qing said with a smile. When the person-in-charge of the ingredients had heard that they would be developing a prescription again, he had personally come to deliver the ingredients. He had even proudly patted his chest and promised that they could take however much they needed. If they needed more, all they had to do was call.

“Mmm. Think for a moment first and write down your thoughts. I’ll come to take a look later on,” Lin Fan said. Then, he sat down and took out his phone to look at the news.

But when he saw his Weibo, he realized that all of a sudden, there were many haters.

However, he was already used to it. After all, he was disrupting other people’s benefits. If no one came to flame him, that would really be strange.

There was a Weibo post that tagged him. He took a closer look and found out that it was Shanghai First Pharmaceutical Company.

“We welcome Master Lin to develop the prescription. However, we wish for Master Lin not to just work on what is already available. After all, this prescription is the blood and sweat of our many professionals.”

With a glance, he didn’t find any problems with this post. But when he took a closer look, he discovered the issue.

Was Shanghai First Pharmaceutical Company giving him a warning?

He chuckled as he felt that this Shanghai First Pharmaceutical Company wasn’t too friendly to him. He held his phone as he hesitated for a moment, thinking about whether he should reply.

But this matter did seem to be related to this pharmaceutical company, so he decided that he should reply in order to prevent a misunderstanding.

Lin Fan: @ShanghaiFirstPharmaceuticalCompany, thank you for the heads up. But don’t worry, I definitely won’t build upon your prescription. I’ll be directly researching and developing a prescription to cure infantile spasms. Also, I’d like to give you a heads up too. Your medicine can soon be taken off the shelves, so don’t produce too much of it.”

Initially, when the netizens had seen Shanghai First Pharmaceutical Company’s post, they had been upset.

They felt that the post was challenging their Master Lin.

But after Master Lin uploaded his post, they were all cheering.

“Awesome, my Master Lin!”

“Haha, LMAO. Shanghai First Pharmaceutical Company thinks too highly of themselves. They even told Master Lin not to build upon their product. Master Lin is going to completely conquer the disease of infantile spasms.”

“Master Lin is really a good man. He knows that he’s going to develop a new medicine, so he even told them not to produce any more of the old medicine.”

“Let’s see how Shanghai First Pharmaceutical Company will handle this. If Master Lin gets serious, it will really be scary.

Shanghai First Pharmaceutical Company.

Facing Master Lin’s warning, they anxiously held a meeting.

They weren’t really concerned about this kind of unprofitable medicine.

But this prescription belonged to them. They were the only company in the country that could produce it.

Now that Master Lin said that he wanted to conquer this disease, that meant that the medicine would become worthless in future. To a medicine manufacturer, that was a huge loss.

“What do you all think about this matter regarding Master Lin?”

“If you ask me, we should just let him try to develop the medicine. I don’t think he’ll be able to.”

“Don’t forget that Master Lin even managed to conquer leukemia. I think he has a ninety percent chance of doing it.”

Amongst the medicine factory’s higher-ups, most of them felt that Master Lin would definitely be able to develop the medicine.

They had no idea how someone like Master Lin could even exist.

If he really conquers all kinds of diseases, what would they, as medicine manufacturers, do?
