<li>FDA’s CRL on Hutchmed and Junshi indicates if there’s no real innovation, there’s little point in doing MRCT. Chinese companies must re-evaluate the costs of internationalization.There’s nothing related to “politics”.</li>
<li>DRGs is a policy that will have a significant impact on the development trend of the entire healthcare industry, because it would change doctors’ interest orientation and companies’ profit model.</li>
<li>However, we believe that DRGs will be a top-level policy design, which will gradually be followed by supporting policies, such as special subsidies for innovation.</li>

<li>The 2021 report is the worst ever annual report of Hengrui, with double drop in both revenue and net profit.2021Q4 and 2022Q1 are also the worst two quarters so far.</li>
<li>Although Hengrui has invested heavily in R&amp;D and internationalization, it’s still trying to follow an established model with better security.Essentially, Hengrui is still the same Hengrui. Nothing has changed fundamentally. </li>
<li>For now, Hengrui hasn’t released any signal for “a reversal”. If going bottom fishing, investors may have to take a long, uncertain journey with Hengrui. Can you afford to wait?</li>

<li>Recently, the VBP results of Chinese patent medicine led by Guangdong Alliance were released.Investors had better confirm whether their products have been included in VBP before investing in related stocks.</li>
<li>The reason why domestic pharmaceutical companies lag behind foreign companies is not only the innovation capability or clinical speed, but also the ability to actively identify innovation and thinking mode.</li>
<li>There would be quite a few consolidations or acquisitions of Biotech at low prices. There could also be some delisting of Biotech in secondary market in the coming year.</li>
