After finding out the illness in 2002, Lu Yong spent 560,000 yuan on a box of high-priced anticancer drugs every day. And there are very few patients like him who can spend money to continue their lives.
One day after 2004, when Lu Yong was looking through the literature, he learned that an Indian manufacturer had copied the anticancer drugs he took every day. Lu Yong saw hope, and finally bought this medicine from Japan at a price of 4,000 yuan per box.
After Lu Yong shared this good news with his patients, thousands of people asked him to buy it for them. Because of the large quantity, Lu Yong simply found an Indian manufacturer to bargain. As a result, patients spend less money on drugs every month than 200 yuan. But Lu Yong's behavior was illegal and he was finally caught. Fortunately, with the support of other patients, he was acquitted.
