It all started back in 1849, when Charles Pfizer and Company opened as a fine-chemicals business. It was a modest red-brick building in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn, New York. It served as office, laboratory, factory, and warehouse 1. The company's first product was santonin--a palatable 2 antiparasitic which was an immediate 3 success. For the past 154 years, Pfizer has been discovering, developing, manufacturing, and marketing 4 leading prescription 5 medicines for humans and animals and many for the world's best-known consumer brands.
追根溯源，1849年，查尔斯辉瑞公司宣告成立，经营精细化学品。当时，公司只是个普普通通的红砖建筑，地处纽约布鲁克林区的威廉姆斯堡地段。大楼既是办公楼、试验室，又是工厂和仓库。公司的第一个产品叫“三托宁”，是一种味道不错的抗寄生虫药。上市之后，大受欢迎。的此后的154年中，辉瑞公司不停地发现、发展、制作、推销领先的处方药品，既有给人使用的，也有动物使用的，还有许多世界上最著名的消费品牌。
