This year's NRDL negotiations could be a turnaround. If the final result really shows a moderate price decline, it will be “a landmark event” for the innovative drug industry.

<li>For industries that have been recognized by investors,the market begins to think in terms of long logic from a broader perspective rather than simply tracking the performance of individual companies.</li>
