Chapter 4835
Moreover, the Apothecary Restoration Pill had already made a name for Apothecary Pharmaceutical. Under such circumstances, the Apothecary Restoration Pill had already completed its mission successfully.
When Jameson heard Charlie's words, tears welled up in his eyes and he cried, "Mr. Wade, I heard that Apothecary Pharmaceutical provides free intensive treatment for terminally ill cancer patients with family difficulties in Oskia. I beg you to give my son a place in the program. My son, Jimmy, is really pitiful. I cannot bear to see him continue suffering from cancer..."
Charlie said with a serious expression, "You said it yourself. Apothecary Pharmaceutical's free medical care is for terminally ill patients with family difficulties. The primary condition is family difficulties. At this point, it seems that neither you nor your son meets the criteria. What's more, strictly speaking, this activity is only for Oskian patients. Countless Oskian patients cannot even get this opportunity, so how can I allocate this precious quota to a foreigner who doesn't meet the criteria at all? So, I'm sorry, but I can't help you with this."
Jameson cried and said, "But Mr. Wade, he will die soon if you don't help him! You can't stand by and watch a twelve-year-old child lose his life to cancer..."
Charlie nodded and said seriously, "When it comes to death, countless people die of illness every day, and many of them are about the same age as your son or even younger than him. We can't and we don't have the ability to cure everyone."
"Therefore, Mr. Smith, moral kidnapping is a cheap tactic that does not have any meaning to us!"
"Instead of morally kidnapping me here, why don't you ask pharmaceutical companies such as Pfizer and Novartis why they continue to set the price of drugs at such a high price when so many children around the world are dying from leukemia every year? Why don't they distribute medicine to every child who has leukemia?"
"There are so many children in Africa who still can't get enough to eat. If a hundred million American families can help one child each, one hundred million African children will be fed and clothed. If one family can help two children each, the hunger problem of African children might even be completely solved, but why don't you do that?"
"Apple makes fifty billion US dollars a year. Why do they just watch those fools sell their kidney to buy an iPhone? Why doesn't Apple just give them one?"
"Elon Musk's Tesla's global sales will exceed one million units this year, but there are so many people in third-world countries who can't even afford to buy a car. Why doesn't Tesla give them a car?"
When Charlie saw that Jameson was suddenly speechless, he then said indifferently, "In fact, you know in your heart that a company's first goal is to survive, and the second goal is to make profits. Whether a pharmaceutical company, a technology company, or a
ovel.
manufacturing company, it net
a
lot of money to support the development and production of products. If they are required to release a drug for free, no one will continue developing new products, and technology will also lose its advancement motivation. This is the law of the market."
With that said, Charlie said, "So, let's get back to our current scenario. We are all adults, so the tactic of using moral kidnapping can be avoided as it's simply too lowly."
Jameson's expression immediately fell into despair.
Charlie thought of something at this moment and said again, "Oh. By the way, you have to show enough sincerity first if you really want to do something to save your son's life."
Jameson blurted out, "I have enough sincerity! I have a hundred percent sincerity!"
Charlie said lightly, "Then I suggest
you quit your job and bring your son
to Oskia. First, do your best to do some charity in Oskia without asking for anything in return. If you really put your heart into it, Apothecary Pharmaceutical might just give you a chance."
Having said that, Charlie reminded him again, "But you have to remember that when I say this, it doesn't mean that you will definitely get what you want in return. In this society, you have to pay first if you want something in return. What's more, you have to pay the price for your own arrogance and prejudice against Apothecary Pharmaceutical. If Mr. Weaver hadn't repaid grievance with virtue and left you with a box of Apothecary Restoration Pills, your son might have already died because of you! So, if the final result is disappointing to you, you should also look for the reason from yourself first!"
