The Third Reich: The Return of the King
Chapter 91
During the First World War, antibiotics had not yet been developed, and the antibiotics, which were so common in later medical systems, were still far from being available.
In 1928, Fleming, a bacteriologist from the empire on which the sun never sets, stumbled upon the world's first antibiotic, penicillin, in an experiment, but this discovery did not attract attention, and Fleming failed to extract penicillin, so he did not know the medical value of this thing.
Ten years later, in 1938, the Hans-national chemist Ernst Chann saw Fleming's paper in a pile of old books and began to do purification experiments in the laboratory.
After two years of experimentation, penicillin was finally extracted in 1940 and streptococcal experiments were done, which proved the value of penicillin, which is something that can fight and kill bacteria!
The discovery shocked the world, and everyone knew exactly what it meant to be able to fight the bacteria, and it was the time of the Second World War, and the large number of wounded in the war had a huge demand for medicines!
So scientists from all over the world began to join in the purification experiment of penicillin, and finally it was not until 1943 that the large-scale extraction of high-purity penicillin became a reality, so penicillin began to enter the medical field of human beings, and played an important role in the fight against disease for human beings!
In the last month of 1919, Johnson & Johnson launched two products, one called Bondi Band-Aid and the other penicillin antibiotic, also known as penicillin.
These two products immediately caused a sensation in North America, especially the latter, which has been tested by medical experts to effectively kill all kinds of disease-causing bacteria, including the virus of the Ban Duck flu!
Moreover, the condition of the patients who have been sick has improved immediately after using this special drug, and after insisting on using a course of treatment, 99% of the diseases have recovered!
As soon as this news came out, it was immediately reported by major media, and people are looking forward to this special medicine as if they were looking forward to the stars and the moon, and today, they are finally looking forward to this special medicine!
At this time, Johnson & Johnson announced this epoch-making drug more than 20 years in advance, which is no less than a nuclear bomb for countries around the world!
Health is a major matter related to all mankind, no one can guarantee that they will not get sick for a lifetime, so everyone hopes that when they are sick, they can get better treatment, so as to save their lives and recover their health as soon as possible.
And Johnson & Johnson's penicillin undoubtedly has such magic!
As a result, people began to rush to Johnson & Johnson's pharmacies to snap up the drug.
But there is someone who moves faster than them, and that is governments.
In the First World War, which had just ended, there were huge casualties in all countries, and at this time, there were millions or even millions of wounded soldiers waiting to be treated, so the needs of all countries were extremely urgent.
As a result, the first batch of Johnson & Johnson was snapped up as soon as it was sold!
Scarcity is expensive, and the more you can't buy something, the more it proves its value!
Affected by this, Johnson & Johnson's stock rose sharply by 000% in just one month, and its market value rose from less than $200 in 1918 to $120 million in 1920, becoming the most valuable biopharmaceutical company in North America!
The North American people regard Johnson & Johnson as the pride of their country, because the penicillin brought by Johnson & Johnson not only brings hope to Eagle Sauce to fight the infection itself, but also brings hope to the world, which makes Eagle Sauce's international image much better!
In 1920, Eagle Sauce was a period of rapid national development, rapid improvement of national strength, and steady improvement of global status, and the people's national pride was increasing day by day.
It's just that the copycat and plagiarism incidents in the past few decades have made the image of Eagle Sauce in the minds of countries around the world very poor, and European countries are sarcastic that Eagle Sauce will only copycat and plagiarize, but if there is a new technology and new technology in Europe, it won't be long before it will be stolen by the shameless Eagle Sauce people, and then imitated it, this is not counted, they will also apply for a patent for their own pirated copycat technology in Eagle Sauce's own country, licking their faces and saying that this is their own invention!
This kind of behavior naturally aroused the contempt of the old European countries, so Eagle Sauce and Eagle Sauce products have always been synonymous with counterfeit and shoddy products in Europe.
This kind of contemptuous attitude is naturally unacceptable to the eagle sauce who is bursting with national self-confidence, so the whole eagle sauce is looking forward to the emergence of some epoch-making products in their own family, which only they have and Europe does not have, because only in this way can they prove their strength and wash away the infamy of copycats and piracy on their backs!
At this time, the penicillin launched by Johnson & Johnson perfectly met or even exceeded their requirements!
Eagle sauce people never dreamed that one day they could become heroes to save the world, which made their national self-confidence quickly burst, and even the pride of their country - Johnson & Johnson's love and support reached its peak!
Although Johnson & Johnson announced that penicillin is very expensive, almost reaching a sky-high price of $20 per 10,000 units, a 200,000 unit of penicillin costs as much as $400!
But for the people of Eagle Sauce, whose annual income has reached 4,000 US dollars, taking out one-tenth of their annual income in exchange for a life, this business is not a loss, after all, there is only one life, and as long as you live the money, you can continue to earn.
At this time, the economy of North America has entered the fast lane of rapid development, there are many employment opportunities in society, and almost everyone can make money, so everyone is not worried about the future at all, so not only does there be no resistance to this expensive drug, but it has become a fashionable pursuit.
According to Gao Tanshi, people who can live in the best city in the world, where every inch of land is valuable, should be the elite of the entire Eagle Sauce country, and if they can't even afford a bottle of penicillin for $400, then they are not qualified to live in Gotham!
This kind of discriminatory remarks against low-income people not only did not meet with people's protests, but was also regarded as a wise saying, so penicillin quickly became a status symbol, and no one wanted to be said that they could not afford to use penicillin, because that meant they were looked down upon!
As a result, Johnson & Johnson's penicillin was immediately popular and even out of stock for a long time!
The North American people do not know that although the Johnson & Johnson company they are proud of is a company established in North America, but at this time the equity of this company is completely in the hands of the Hans people, as early as half a year ago, Johnson & Johnson and Monsanto, Pfizer and other more than a dozen companies, have been included in the list of acquisitions by Mainz!
And Vanegal, which stayed in North America, used the money earned from the General Motors Group to carry out Mainz's order to the letter, and it took half a year to buy all these companies at a low price!
At this time, Johnson & Johnson is actually already a Hans company!
