Chapter 959

Do pharmaceutical and medical companies contribute to the world? It is undeniable that nature has made a huge contribution. Because of these companies, human beings can overcome one medical problem after another and manufacture various advanced medical devices. Relying on these medical devices, the average life span of human beings has been continuously extended.

There is an old saying: a life of seventy is rare since ancient times.

In today's society, seventy years old is no longer a rare thing. This is undoubtedly inseparable from the progress and development of medicine.

But medical companies are still a controversial company in this society. In addition to the high price of the original drug, one of the most criticized things is about human trials. Whether it is a medical device or a medicine, if you want to really put it into the market, you must go through various experiments. From Phase I and Phase II clinical trials to a large number of human trials.

It can be said that the success and failure of each drug is found out by stepping on human bones.

If it is only said that human beings are only allowed to test drugs, then the degree of disgust of medical companies may not be so high. Nor will it become a topic that the international community deliberately avoids talking about, and it is difficult to find enough information even through active searches.

What is really frightening is that most of the international medical groups led by medical companies in developed countries in Europe and the United States do not use a formal method for most of their human experiment projects.

They do not recruit experimenters from their own countries, explain to them in detail the various risks that may arise from the experimental drugs, sign various risk contracts, and then give these people high remuneration.

Of course, some of this is due to national policy issues. It is cumbersome and slow for them to conduct these experiments in accordance with the bills stipulated by the policy. But the most critical point is that the cost of doing so is too high! It's just too high!

Medical observation of a universal drug may require thousands or more trial observers. If everything goes according to formal procedures, not to mention time-consuming and labor-intensive, the money consumed is also huge.

Capital is born to pursue profit, and medical companies are no exception. That's why a large number of European and American medical companies have chosen developing and backward countries as the venues for human trials.

These include India, a well-known testing ground for medicine. More than 150 drugs are put into trials in India every year. According to unofficial statistics, about one million people in India participate in new drug trials every year. Some of them knew about it, while others were directly fooled by doctors.

But even for informed drug testers, the rewards they can get are extremely low. They can only get about tens of thousands of rupees (thousands of RMB) for testing a new drug.

In addition to India in Asia, South America also has a large number of medical device testing grounds. Places that are unknown, but that actually exist. Such illegal testing grounds exist in Mexico, Peru, Brazil and other countries.

Because there are a large number of unemployed people in these countries, the only way for them to maintain themselves is to serve as experimental workers and sell blood.

And most of these people are low-educated people, who have no idea what terrible harm their experiments will bring to their future.

Eighteen-year-old Malha is hesitating in front of a white house. He needs a sum of money because he is admitted to university. It was a life-changing turning point for a teenager born in a Mexican slum. The premise is that he can afford the school's tuition.

But unfortunately, he has no money. Even if they emptied all their family assets, their family could not afford to go to college. In addition, his family was a low-income family, so their credit score was extremely low, and they could not apply for student loans from banks.

Under his introduction, he was brought here. This is a small town on the Mexican border. The people here seem to be strange, and everyone gave him a strange feeling.

"That's it, don't hesitate Malha. Where do you get the money from. Just give them a few injections here and stay for a few months and you can make a lot of money. You can also sell blood twice a month, and they never care about you alone They sell blood a few times a month, and for 200 milliliters of blood, they will give you fifty dollars!" Malha's ignorant eyes shone with greed for money.

Malha seemed very hesitant: "What do you mean by injection?"

"Whatever it is. It seems to be antibiotics or something. But what the hell, it's not harmful. You can't go anywhere and make thousands of dollars in a month or two." Malha's childhood has been persuading Malha, wanted him to follow him to the three-story white house.

"No, forget it. I'd better find a part-time job. I feel like this is a place for illegal drug testing." Malha is not as stupid as Fa Xiao, who didn't even graduate from junior high school. He has already guessed some clues.

"You're so stupid! How much money do you earn from a part-time job? What you earn a month here, you'll earn half a year working part-time!" Fa Xiao dragged Marha towards the three-story white house, dragging and dragging.

The white house looks like an ordinary villa, but in fact it is a place with a loose exterior and a tight interior. Hynum also knew what it was doing was illegal. So hired many local gangsters to maintain order here.

Malha's flirtation with Faxiao draws the attention of local gangsters. A Mexican gangster with a pistol on his waist and a mohawk came over, and he spat at Malja's feet.

"What's going on?" The whites of his eyes seemed more than the black ones, making him look scary.

"It's nothing, we went to the wrong place. Let's go now." When Malha saw this person, he knew that this place should not be here, and he should not be deceived by the news of the novel. What he said about the opportunity to make money is really unreliable!

But their quarrel has already attracted the attention of local gangsters. They are also afraid that Malha is the kind of independent reporter who is not afraid of death. Those independent journalists specialize in exposing all kinds of ugly truths, and do things that these gangsters see as harming others and not benefiting themselves. For example, risking their lives to expose the drug trade, human organ trade and so on. These things are none of your business? !

The gangster with the mohawk whistled, and two gangsters with shaved heads appeared out of nowhere. Not much nonsense, they directly escorted the two of Malha away.

In this borderland, if one or two people are killed casually, no one will know.

The local gangsters did these things in broad daylight, but the surrounding residents looked numb, as if they didn't see it at all.

Moxican sneered.

But before his smile solidified, he heard an unusual sharp whistling sound. From far to near, he turned his head, and saw a black spot in the sky getting bigger little by little. Bigger and bigger and bigger. When he could already see what the black spot was, it was too late for him to run away, so he could only curse in a low voice: "Damn it!"

It was an eighty-two meter caliber mortar shell.

Phew ~ touch ~!

The explosion of mortar shells started the battle.

In addition to hiring local gangsters in this illegal testing ground, Hainam Company also deployed more than a dozen professionally trained mercenaries.

When they heard the sound of cannons, they had already assembled immediately.

"It's an attack! The Americans are coming!" The local gangsters shouted: "The American army is here to wipe out this place!"

Deeply influenced by American movies, in the impression of local gangsters, Americans are countries that maintain justice in the world.

But those mercenaries from the United States knew very well that this was impossible. The United States is a country where interests are paramount. Hynum Corporation is originally an American medical company, and the company has an unclear relationship with high-level government officials. Even these experiments were tacitly sanctioned by the government.

"It must have been done by a competitor!" The captain of the mercenary team judged the situation immediately.

They climbed to the top of the three-story building and looked over, and as expected, a troop of hundreds of people was marching here.

"Our manpower here is definitely not enough to resist. Go delete all the data, and then wait for the opportunity to leave. Before the encirclement is formed, we must escape first. Let those gangsters buy us time!" The mercenary team leader said to his team The members issued the most correct orders.

More than a dozen mercenaries moved quickly, they didn't care about the chaos outside. They want to delete all experimental evidence here as soon as possible. These experimental evidence cannot be kept, otherwise the handle will be too big.

However, when the mercenary captain led the soldiers into the data room, they found that the four mercenaries stationed here to guard the data had died. The researchers in the data room were all controlled. And standing in the reference room were two people they had never seen before.

Two Asians.

One is tall and handsome, and the other has a solemn and kind face.

And when this man with a dignified and kind face saw the mercenary team, he said flatly, "Put down your butcher knives and your lives, and turn your back on the shore."

A huge transparent crystal bowl appeared out of thin air, and was thrown upside down on the heads of the mercenary team.

The man with a dignified appearance turned his head to the tall and handsome man and said, "Wouldn't it be more kind and Buddha-nature to deal with them this way?"
