Chapter 848 Fatal weakness
Several tall foreign faces came in, all wearing exquisitely tailored suits and having the same temperament.
The leader was a lawyer who dressed femininely, but Xu Qiu could tell at a glance that her physical features were more masculine.
His lawyer lowered his voice: "Sarafina, Huining's chief legal officer, is transgender+gay, and has a bunch of messy labels..."
Xu Qiu was silent for a moment.
When transgender people and homosexual people come together, what they like happens to be the opposite sex.
Although they took different paths, they somehow ended up together.
Lawyer Wei Chongzhen said with a smile: "This group of people came here after watching you come in... As a legal staff, it is really childish to play such a little trick."
Xu Qiu didn't think about it. He glanced at Sarafina's group and then looked away.
Although the arguments in the trial started before the trial, Xu Qiu did not take them seriously.
He is a professional in the medical field, so he knows one thing: leave professional things to professionals.
He had collected the final piece of evidence, and then it was time to delegate power to Wei Chongzhen. It was enough for him to show up to calm the situation, and there was no need for extra actions.
Trials are not his strong point.
…
Not long after, the presiding judge arrived at the court hearing venue.
As ten o'clock arrived in the morning, the trial officially began.
All rise……
Read out the rules of court...
Announcing the composition of the tribunal...
Then came the announcement of the indictment and the reading of the defendant's charges...
Everyone cheered up, and countless cameras moved over.
“The complaint regarding the alleged concealment of sequelae, illegal marketing of Huining’s drug Liver Anning, causing losses to public health!
"Defendant: Huining Company. Huining is headquartered in New York, Berry Country. It entered the Daxia market in the last century and its business scope is biopharmaceuticals...
"The drug involved is 'Liver Anning', which is a liver cancer-targeted drug. Huining concealed its side effects and fabricated experimental data... After failing to pass the approval of the State Food and Drug Administration, it falsely reported the data and entered the market of other countries. , resulting in a total of 303 direct deaths in my country, caused by septic shock, sepsis, etc. A total of 16,390 people suffered sequelae, including but not limited to cartilage deformity, meningitis, liver and kidney damage. …”
These cold numbers, read out without emotion, gave people a chilling feeling even in the courtroom.
More than three hundred people died directly.
So, how many people died indirectly?
Liver cancer patients, if they do not receive treatment, will only have a few months to survive, and their physical condition will plummet...
How long can they survive under the devastation of liver tranquility?
In addition, there are more than 16,000 people still suffering from the sequelae of liver rest!
This is an unprecedented major case, a major medical case involving the whole country and the world!
After the eloquent accusations, the next step is to provide evidence.
Wei Chongzhen had been prepared for a long time and successively presented the complaint letters jointly signed by the victims, as well as the production records and sales records collected by Tong Yan, the test reports of the drug testing agency, the testimonies of relevant personnel, and the most important thousand pages of confidential documents!
"According to the analysis of professional institutions and experts, the evidence provided by the plaintiff is true and valid, and will be used to prove the defendant's illegal behavior!" the presiding judge's voice sounded.
Immediately afterwards, a fierce defense began.
Huining was well prepared.
However, in the face of mountains of irrefutable evidence, even if Sarafina had the power to turn around, it would be of no avail.
The hearing lasted more than an hour.
In the end, there was a stalemate over the amount of compensation.
This is expected.
If death is caused by clear side effects, compensation is easily adjudicated. There are many precedents that can be used as a reference.
However, the experimental data of Hepatic Anxiety are simply false. This type of drug can cause death. The applicable law is "fake or inferior drugs", and punitive damages will be even heavier.
But the problem is that Huining has been prepared for it for a long time.
Compensation is possible, but it is absolutely impossible for them to admit that Liver Anning is a fake drug.
They produced a large amount of evidence to prove that they have made extensive improvements to Gan An Ning, which is different from the thousand-page document provided by Xu Qiu. Therefore, the Gan An Ning sold on the market is a legal and regular drug...
This resulted in the inability to agree on the amount of compensation.
The compensation plan given by Huining is that for victims who die due to drugs, each person will be compensated 200,000; for those who have sequelae, the compensation will be between 10,000 and 300,000, depending on the severity.
Moreover, the Sarafina team issued ratings for more than 16,000 people, ranging from 1 to 10. The minimum compensation for level 1 is 10,000, and the compensation increases in order, and the compensation for level 10 is 300,000.
According to the standards they set, fully 50% of the victims are Level 1 victims, and the remaining 50% are mostly between Level 1 to Level 5. Only two or three people can get Level 10 compensation. .
If you really want to accept Huining's compensation plan, their total compensation will only be just over 100 million!
Half an hour later, the first court hearing ended.
This result was expected. Talking about compensation couldn't be settled in one or two attempts. Huining didn't want to spend money, but Xu Qiu couldn't give in. He had to get the maximum proportion of compensation for the victims.
…
Inside the hotel.
Sarafina called Huining's headquarters.
The video conference was connected, and more than a dozen avatars appeared, all members of the board of directors, as well as several senior executives of Huining.
"Elder, Chairman Smith." Sarafina greeted.
The elder of the board nodded solemnly. Seeing that Sarafina did not report the good news, he said in a cold tone: "Did Xu Qiu agree to the compensation plan?"
"No, they asked for too much!"
Smith narrowed his eyes and sneered: "Back then, Trofen, 15,000 people died, and there were more sequelae. We only gave out 30 million berry yuan, and it was in the name of the foundation donation... Why does he dare to ask for so much?"
Sarafina pressed the headset.
Although she checked the hotel and confirmed that there was no monitoring equipment in the room, she still remained cautious.
The elder's face showed a trace of displeasure, and he said in a deep voice: "Smith, what are you talking about?"
Smith suddenly realized that he had made a mistake and quickly turned off his microphone.
Sarafina continued: "According to Xu Qiu's request, each deceased person will be compensated 800,000, and the victims will bear their medical expenses, lost wages, nursing expenses, etc..."
Hearing this, the elder's face suddenly turned livid.
If it is really calculated in this way, the amount of compensation for each victim will be quite terrifying!
The original strategy of Gan An Ning was to enter the sinking market, expand the market in all rural areas, towns, etc., and enter every village clinic and small pharmacy.
This is a unique strategy.
It is with this that Gan An Ning has established its own niche in the liver drug market dominated by Lenvatinib and Sorafenib.
However, now, it has become its fatal weakness!
