Fosun Pharma’s Drive Beyond China

I mean, Fusang Pharma, like most of the Chinese pharmaceutical companies, has a relatively short history.

Fosun Pharma’s Drive Beyond China

It started about 30 years ago.

We started with diagnostic business development and with the diagnostic kit on the hepatitis C, and then we moved on to the generic drugs business by acquiring several different existing pharmaceutical companies which are making the generic drugs

I think that has been this major pillar for Fusong Pharma in relation to the drug development for that about almost spanning for almost two decades.
