Chapter 351: Three hundred and fifty-one, the skyscraper is about to collapse_1

A week later, two new drugs from the Ji Family began to be sold through various channels.

And the media that previously attacked the Ji Family in newspapers, under Ji Guangsheng’s unending financial onslaught,

also began to crazily hype up the Ji Family’s new drugs on the front pages of various media outlets.

Many people, through newspapers and television, saw that the Ji Family’s Tianyuan Lingzhi Powder and Dragon Phoenix Rejuvenation Pill had won international awards.

Suddenly, they believed without a doubt that the Ji Family was an internationally renowned pharmaceutical company.

The two medicines had only just hit the shelves when they were immediately sold out, and many people, after trying them,

found that the effects were surprisingly good, and even the prices were lower than those of the Xu Family’s medicines.

As a result, many people even began to recommend them to their friends around them spontaneously.

Especially the Ji Family’s Dragon Phoenix Rejuvenation Pill, compared to the Xu Family’s Jinyang Rejuvenation Pills, which cost over 200 yuan a box,

was not just stronger by a notch, which made many men with harmonious marital affairs,

immediately forget about the Ji Family’s previous fake goji berry scandal and begin to praise them profusely.

As time passed, the reputation of the Ji Family steadily climbed, and the sales of their pharmaceutical products grew ever higher.

However, as the saying goes, where there is joy, there must be sorrow.

Just as the Ji Family was making great strides in the Chuan City OTC drug market, the Xu Family, whose drug sales began to plummet dramatically,

were already inevitably panicking.

And Xu Qingmu’s mood at this time could be described as utterly miserable.

He had never expected that the Ji Family, whom he had always looked down upon,

could produce two new drugs with such astonishing effectiveness.

No sooner had they launched than the Xu Family began to retreat on all fronts.

Now in just a week, the Xu Family’s drug sales had plummeted by fifty percent.

And still, they continued to tumble down crazily.

Even though he had immediately ramped up the advertising and even began to lower prices proactively to wage a price war with the Ji Family,

sadly, it still did nothing to alleviate the current situation.

Everyone’s eyes turned to the Ji Family’s new drugs, especially that Dragon Phoenix Rejuvenation Pill.

It had almost taken over the entire market share of Xu Family’s Jinyang Rejuvenation Pills in just a few short days.

With large quantities of drugs piling up unsold in the warehouse, the downstream distributors were calling in droves, clamoring to return goods.

Facing such a fierce assault from the Ji Family, it almost instantly pushed Xu Qingmu onto the cusp of internal strife within the Xu Family.

The fact that a large batch of medicinal materials had been intercepted before hitting the market, causing the Xu Family to suffer losses,

had already led some shareholders to grumble about Xu Qingmu’s conflicts with the Ji Family, and if not for him relying on his authority as the Family Head,

and the promise of dividends after the launch of this quarter’s new drugs as a bargaining chip, those people would have likely been dissatisfied long ago.

But now the Xu Family’s main products had almost been completely blocked by the Ji Family’s business assault.

Overnight, the once-flourishing market collapsed, and coupled with such large-scale continuous losses,

everyone began to realize that the Xu Family might truly be on the verge of bankruptcy.

"Chairman, Young Master, it’s terrible, terrible!"

Just as Xu Qingmu was restlessly pacing in his office,

the Butler hurriedly walked in from outside, his face flushed with panic as he spoke.

"Young Master, the dissenting shareholders have already initiated a recall impeachment against you.

Now, more than seventy percent have voted in support and the resolution has been passed.

You... your position as Chairman has been revoked."

"What?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingmu abruptly stood up from his chair, his face a mix of rage and disbelief as he exclaimed.

"These stupid pigs, at this critical moment for the corporation, they are actually plotting against me from behind. Didn’t you tell them that I have a new drug already in preparation? Qing Shen Xuelian Pill has been produced in quantities exceeding three million boxes. If this batch of new drugs can successfully hit the market, then the losses incurred before can all be earned back."

As he reached this point, Xu Qingmu couldn’t help but stand up and urge, "Quick, don’t wait any longer, go immediately to the newspapers to place advertisements, release all the drugs to the market."

Upon hearing this, the Butler immediately nodded vigorously and was about to leave.

However, he had barely taken a step when the phone rang at that moment.

He picked up the phone with a somewhat panicked grip and pressed the answer button, but the next second, the Butler’s face turned ashen.

Even his lips were trembling slightly, without a trace of color.

"What’s happened? What’s going on?"

Xu Qingmu, sensing that something was amiss, stepped forward quickly and grabbed the Butler’s collar, demanding to know.

"Young Master... just received the news. The Ji Family, the Ji Family, launched a new drug in the morning with the medicinal function and efficacy almost identical to our new drug."

"Even the name had been registered by them in advance; their new drug is also called Qing Shen Xuelian Pill. And just now, a group of lawyers hired by the Ji Family, accompanied by numerous media reporters, forcibly entered our warehouse and found our self-produced Qing Shen Xuelian Pill."

"They are now preparing to sue us in the name of malicious imitation; even our two warehouses where the drugs are stored have been temporarily sealed..."

The Butler spoke with trembling words, his complexion ghastly.

As these words fell, Xu Qingmu was struck as if by lightning, his figure swaying involuntarily.

His vision began to darken, and it was only with the support of the Butler that he did not collapse to the floor.

"Impossible, impossible. This new drug has always been a secret project jointly developed by the Xu Family and Chuan University Research Institute. I’ve invested fifty million into it, fifty million! How did the Ji Family get hold of this information? And to come out with a new drug identical to the Qing Shen Xuelian Pill. It must have been Professor Dong, send someone to Chuan University Pharmaceutical Research Institute right now, I will sue him!"

However, at this time, a secretary also burst in with a face full of panic.

Upon seeing Xu Qingmu’s ferocious face, the secretary couldn’t help but speak in a quivering voice.

"Young Master, there’s bad news. Chuan University Pharmaceutical Research Institute has just sent word. Professor Dong has officially announced that he will completely sever all cooperative relationships with the Xu Family."

"And he has already reported to the police, claiming that he suspects you have secretly orchestrated criminal forces intending to kidnap and harm his daughter. Professor Dong is a globally recognized expert in medical pharmacology, and this incident involving harm to his family has alarmed the provincial authorities."

As the complexion of Xu Qingmu grew worse, the secretary nervously swallowed.

"The higher-ups have already sent down a special task force, and the Chuan City police have also just called. They hope you will cooperate with the investigation and refrain from any extreme actions, after all, this matter... they are powerless to help."

At this moment, Xu Qingmu’s eyes bulged out in disbelief,

his face contorted with shock as he stepped backward while arguing frantically with the two people in the office.

"No, I didn’t do it; it’s all a conspiracy, a frame-up by the Ji Family.

Professor Dong has always been the most important partner of the Xu Family; how could I possibly send someone to kidnap his daughter?

I’ve never done such a thing, nor have I ever given such an order.

It’s all a lie, a lie, I don’t believe it, I refuse to believe it!"
