Third, the necessity of the project 1, the construction of the project, in line with the needs of industrial policy development. According to the Beijing Municipal Urban Master Plan 2004

-2020" in the principle of industrial development and layout guidance, Zhifei Luzhu in the Beijing Economic and Technological Development Zone to build a vaccine industry base in line with the requirements of the overall planning of Beijing. After the completion of the production base, it can give full play to the advantages of good industrial foundation, good land use conditions and convenient transportation in the southeast direction of Beijing, and play a positive role in accelerating the construction of a high-tech industrial belt with Yizhuang as the core.

2. The construction of the project is in line with the needs of the company's production and development layout:

(1) The existing production base cannot meet the current production needs. Our wholly-owned subsidiary Zhifei Green Bamboo is mainly engaged in business

For the research and development, production and sales of vaccine products, the products currently listed are A group C meningococcal polysaccharide conjugate vaccine, A, C, Y, W135 meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine, AC meningococcus (combined) type b haemophilus influenzae (combined) combined vaccine, haemophilus influenzae type b conjugate vaccine and group A group C meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine, etc., each product is based on various types of meningococcal polysaccharides, Haemophilus influenzae type b polysaccharides as raw materials, is the main and key raw material for the production of finished vaccines, Although the company's vaccine industrialization base has been completed and will soon be put into production, and the production capacity of the production base can reach 38 million doses, the company's existing polysaccharide production workshop and the original finished product workshop are supporting construction, and are now running at full capacity, coupled with aging equipment, limited space and other issues, which cannot meet the polysaccharide dosage demand of the new industrialization base;

(2) Existing production facilities will not be able to meet future production needs. With pneumonia and dysentery and other related vaccines land

Continuing to go public, the company needs more production lines for the production of vaccine polysaccharides. Therefore, the expansion of polysaccharide raw materials production workshop is to enrich the company's product structure, expand the needs of industrial scale, but also to meet the company's development layout in the next 5-10 years of the needs, if the future pneumonia polysaccharide vaccine into the national immunization program, dysentery vaccine through the WHO certification, the project can quickly meet the market demand, which will be conducive to further enhance the company's core competitiveness and enhance the company's sustainable development capabilities, to fully achieve the company's development strategy to create better conditions.

Fourth, the analysis of investment returns

The construction project and the proposed input products meet the requirements of the national and local industrial development orientation, the project products are independently developed, have independent intellectual property rights, and meet the relevant requirements of the National Development and Reform Commission's "Industrial Structure Adjustment Guidance Catalogue" to encourage development. After the completion of the project, it can meet the production requirements of intermediate products A, C, Y, W135 polysaccharides and Hib polysaccharides and Hib polysaccharides of 10 million doses/year of the flow brain and Hib series finished vaccines, and meet the finished pneumonia series epidemics

Seedling 10 million doses / year intermediate products 23 types of pneumococcal polysaccharide production requirements, to meet the dysentery series of finished products

Vaccine 5 million doses / year intermediate product 2 types of dysentery polysaccharide production requires a great increase in the company's production capacity.

V. Analysis of major risks and countermeasures

1. Technology development risks

The research, development and production of biological products is a multidisciplinary highly comprehensive mutual penetration, knowledge-intensive, high-tech content, complex process of high-tech activities, every link of the research and development process is related to the success or failure of research and development, there are high risks. However, the products of this project - pneumonia, dysentery process route design, product quality control and part of the process, are similar and referenced with the company's products, so the company has a great advantage in the development of the product route; at the same time, the relevant products have been in the clinical trial stage, to be phase III clinically completed, its treatment or diagnosis effect is good, after passing the registration approval, it can be put into the market, and its technology development risk is relatively small.

2. Manage risks

The quality and experience of managers, the standardization and soundness of the project management mechanism, the degree of scientific decision-making, and the rationality of the enterprise organization all directly determine the size of the project management risk of new drug development. In addition, due to the imperfect talent evaluation mechanism and incentive mechanism in the development of new drugs, scientific research talents are diverted to the business field, which makes new drug research stranded in the middle, which is also an important part of the project management risk of new drug development. The person in charge of this project has many years of experience in the research and development and management of biological products, and has a high-quality management team, and also resists risks by clarifying the company's purpose and strategic planning, formulating a hierarchical and detailed management plan, strengthening the organization and control in the project implementation process, and improving the quality of employees and improving the management level.

3. Production risk

The supply capacity of raw materials and energy in the development of new drugs, the level of production equipment and processes, the technical level and proficiency of operators, and the degree of satisfaction of production costs have a direct impact on production risks. This project has been the company's quality assurance department (QA) and related functional departments to carry out a full production quality risk assessment, at the same time, the company's quality assurance department management will run through the entire process of production, through risk analysis, assessment, verification, confirmation, etc

A range of methods to reduce risk in the production process.

4. Capital risk

Overdue accounts receivable will directly affect the cash inflow of the enterprise and trigger a financial crisis, which in turn will affect the progress of the project construction. The company has established a strict accounts receivable management system, prevention mechanism and monitoring system, multi-level, multi-link to avoid and reduce the possibility of financial risks.

At the same time, in order to effectively avoid the above risks, the company will take further safeguard measures:

(1) Establish a scientific decision-making system Successfully carry out new drug development projects is inseparable from a scientific decision-making system. In the process of project implementation, it is necessary to ensure the scientific decision-making process and project establishment, fully collect and utilize information, pay close attention to the information of domestic and foreign pharmaceutical development, timely grasp advanced scientific knowledge, and provide a basis for correct decision-making.

(2) Strengthen management

Establish a scientific management and an effective organizational structure to ensure the smooth organization of the project. Regularly evaluate the progress of the project to ensure its progress; implement effective incentives to improve the enthusiasm and creativity of relevant personnel; strengthen communication among project team members, create a good atmosphere of information communication and knowledge sharing, strengthen knowledge complementarity, ability coordination, and teamwork among project members; coordinate the work of various departments and strengthen the prevention of unfavorable factors that cause risks, so as to eliminate defects within the enterprise or organization, and achieve the purpose of preventing and avoiding risks.

(3) The implementation of the project to establish an effective capital guarantee system requires enterprises to invest a lot of money. It is necessary to accurately divide the phases of the project and the resource allocation plan of each stage to meet the funding needs of the project. Combined with the company's capital situation and the budget requirements of R&D projects, we will allocate funds reasonably to ensure the smooth progress of the project and effectively control financial risks.

(4) Strengthen the protection of intellectual property rights

If pharmaceutical companies want to survive and develop in the fierce competition, the key lies in innovative drugs with independent intellectual property rights. Protect property rights through intellectual property rights and prevent intellectual property-related risks. New drug development must comply with the law and use laws and regulations to strengthen the protection of innovative achievements. Enterprises should further improve the internal management system, strengthen the confidentiality system and confidentiality measures, put an end to the improper use or unauthorized leakage of technical achievements by employees, and effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of the company.
