    In the era of horse-running circles, stags, some people have made a name for them, and some people are sad, the storyline always happens like this, biopharmaceutical CDMO industry is no exception.
    domestic biopharmaceus CDMO market is absolutely rich to earn, but the pattern is diversified development, fish and dragon mixed.
    addition to the drug-clearing creatures stand out and do not seem to see the ceiling, other peers are also in the process of increasing the code, and strive for the industry's second-old.
    in terms of publicly disclosed revenue volumes, it is clear that The Pharmaceuticals have left their domestic rivals far behind and are not at all in an order of magnitude.
    others, the increase was similar and below the 22.90 per cent increase in the CRO industry as a whole, a marked decrease from the previous year.
    shows that the biopharmaceonce idMO industry, in addition to the boss continues to surge, several others are in the adjustment period, and gradually converge.
