856 I Have a Little Immature Suggestion

Just as the handover was completed, such news came from the other side. This made all the higher-ups of Shennong Pharmaceutical Company feel embarrassed.

“Hmph, people these days don’t know what’s really good medicine. They only know how to blindly worship foreign things!”

Qi Changfeng felt embarrassed and immediately spoke indignantly.

The other company executives also nodded in agreement.

“Yes, our Chinese patent medicine is cheap and effective, but those people only believe in Western medicine and treat our treasures as waste.” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Sigh, it’s like Western medicine is spreading to the East. The media and academia are all focused on Western medicine now. Where is the living space for our Chinese medicine?”

“We did not lose in terms of strength, but because of people’s ideologies of worshipping foreign things. Nobody believes in the good things left behind by our ancestors. How pathetic!”

“Hehe, it’s their loss if these people don’t choose our products. When they have a taste of Western medicine, they will know how good Chinese medicine is.”

“Many people actually said that we are pseudoscience. Of course we’re not pseudoscience.”

When the group of old Chinese doctors talked about the current social atmosphere, they all looked indignant.

But no matter how Ye Feng listened to them, he did not hear them reflect on their own problems. They were always picking on the patients, the academic community, and society.

He couldn’t help but shake his head.

In his opinion, these old fellows might be very good Chinese medicine experts, but they were not good managers.

A good business manager should consider how to let users understand their products and how to better promote themselves instead of pushing all the problems to the users when they encounter setbacks.

At this moment, Ma Jian, who had been silent all this while, suddenly interrupted. “I think we should think about how to solve the problem now, not just argue about who should be responsible.”

When Ye Feng heard this, he could not help but look at him a few more times. It seemed that this General Manager Ma was an exception among this group of people.

However, the odd one out was often ostracized.

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately attracted the attention of the others.

“I don’t agree with you. Only by figuring out who’s responsible can we find a solution to the problem.”

“We’ve already thought of what we should do, but the patient just won’t buy it. What can we do?”

“That’s right. The packaging of the products has also been changed, the advertisements have been launched, and the prices have been reduced. We’ve thought of all the ways we should, but no one bought it.”

“This is a phenomenon caused by the bad atmosphere in society. The entire Chinese medicine industry is in a slump, and we’re not the only one.”

“Yeah, so many Chinese medicine companies have closed down in the past few years. It’s already a miracle that only our company is still holding on…”

Ye Feng could not be bothered to listen to their argument. He walked to the side and started reading the documents on the table.

This information was some of Shennong Pharmaceutical’s core secrets, including some drug formulas, as well as the company’s operating model, and so on.

He read things very quickly and could basically read ten lines at a glance.

Half an hour later, the group of people had almost finished arguing. He had a basic understanding of the company’s operating model.

“Everyone, I have a little immature suggestion.”

He put down the documents and turned to look at the group of executives.

Qi Changfeng could not help but laugh. “Little kid, if you don’t investigate, you don’t have the right to speak. You’ve just taken over Shennong Pharmaceutical Company and don’t know the company at all. What useful suggestions can you give?”

Although the others were not as aggressive as him, they did not think that Ye Feng would be able to come up with any valuable ideas.

In order to save the company’s declining performance, they had thought of countless methods, but none of them had any effect. This kid’s butt hasn’t even warmed up yet, and he could already think of a way?

Ye Feng smiled nonchalantly. “Of course, I’m new here, my understanding of the company is definitely not as good as yours. However, I’ve run a few companies before, so I might be able to provide you with some different insights.”

Qi Changfeng sat back on the sofa and took a sip of tea. “Then I’d like to hear Mr. Ye’s opinion.”

Although he said so, his tone was somewhat disapproving. It was obvious that he did not take this young man, who was about the same age as his grandson, seriously.

The others also took their seats, wanting to hear what he had to say.

Ye Feng patted the documents on the table and said after some deliberation, “I looked at the company’s operating model just now. It is still using traditional Chinese medicine consultation. Every pharmacy has a doctor. When patients come to see a doctor, they will prescribe medicine according to their symptoms…”

Before he could finish, Qi Changfeng interrupted him. “What’s wrong with this model? We’ve been operating in this model for decades. We even became the cultural name card of South Guangdong Province. When we were at our peak, you were still playing with urine at home.”

The other executives also laughed out loud, taking advantage of their seniority.

Ye Feng was looked down upon by them, but he did not show any signs of anger. He continued to speak slowly.

“Of course, this model has its advantages, but the disadvantages are also very obvious. The biggest problem is that the standards are not uniform.”

“The doctors in every pharmacy will prescribe medicine to the patients based on their own experience.”

“This creates a problem. The patient might only need two doses of medicine in this pharmacy, but if they change to another pharmacy, they might need three or four doses of medicine.

As these medicinal shops are all under Shennong Pharmaceutical Company, in the long run, it will be a huge blow to our reputation. I wonder if I’m right?”

After he finished speaking, he immediately looked at Qi Changfeng and the others.

Qi Changfeng immediately sneered and said, “How can you measure the number of patients you treat?”

“The patients’ conditions are different. Of course, we have to prescribe the right medicine for them. The dosage will definitely be different.”

Ye Feng smiled lightly. “But we are a pharmaceutical company after all, not a hospital. I think we need to separate medicine from medicine. Those who treat diseases only treat diseases, and those who make medicines only make medicines. If the two are mixed together, it will be impossible to form a scale, let alone compete with others.”

After he finished speaking, the room immediately fell silent. Even Qi Changfeng, who loved to interrupt, did not refute immediately.

Clearly, he had hit the nail on the head.

The senior executives of Shennong Pharmaceutical Company did not expect this young man to be able to hit the nail on the head. They could not help but look at him in a new light.

However, it was a little difficult for them to slap themselves in the face and admit that they had looked down on them just now.

General Manager Ma Jian then asked, “Mr. Ye, what are your specific plans?”

Ye Feng looked at this person a few more times. “My plan is to turn Shennong Pharmaceutical Company into a super large corporation that has the entire Chinese medicine industry chain. This includes the cultivation, planting, and processing of Chinese medicinal herbs, as well as the research and development of drugs, sales network, Chinese medicine hospitals, and so on…”
