God-level Trader of Rebirth

Chapter 288 Microsoft is Really Soft

"Professor Jax, Reston City just sent a batch of crab-eating monkeys."

Lynch, a Hispanic biological researcher, is reporting the biological samples recently received by the laboratory to his superiors as usual.

"OK, let's send them to the isolation room first."

The white scientist named Jakes nodded slightly, and made corresponding arrangements according to the usual practice.

The Dekritt Biological Laboratory is the only research laboratory with the highest level of protection under the DoD of the United States that has a level [-] biosafety protection level.

XJ microorganisms such as Ebola, smallpox, anthrax and plague are stored here.

Jakes has worked in this laboratory for 16 years and is very familiar with the various processing procedures.

However, just as he was about to sign the memorandum, Lynch hesitated and said, "Professor, these monkeys have begun to show some symptoms, and we need to make an extraction plan in advance."

It turned out that these cynomolgus monkeys were imported from the Philippines and were originally planned for medical research.

But shortly after arriving at a primate isolation center in the United States, they successively developed symptoms such as anorexia, fever, and lack of energy.

After four weeks, nearly a third of the monkeys died.

Scientists dissected the dead monkeys and found that their interiors were all necrotic.

At first, scientists thought the condition was caused by monkey hemorrhagic fever.

Pathologists then sent the remaining surviving tissue samples to Dekritt's laboratory outside Maryland for in-depth analysis.

After listening to Lynch's story.

Professor Jakes was stunned, and after a while, he slowly said: "Then send them to the third-level laboratory, you don't need to wait for me, you can observe and experiment with them first, so as to obtain some preliminary data .”

This level of laboratory is completely sealed, the room is in a negative pressure state, and the safety is high enough to deal with most situations.

After arranging this matter, Professor Jakes left in a hurry.

He is going to Washington today for an important meeting.

DoD personnel will also be in attendance, according to some old friends.

The meaning of this is self-evident.

After Professor Jakes left, Lynch and another scientist, Thomas Geisbert, immediately analyzed the samples sent.

During the course of their research, both of them had sniffed close-ups of cell culture flasks containing samples.

however.

a few days later.

Thomas identified from the electron microscope that the samples sent were not ordinary monkey fever at all, but a special variant of a certain pathogen.

It can even spread through direct contact and droplets.

This result shocked them.

Obviously, the sample has reached the level [-] hazard level and should be placed in a level [-] laboratory with the highest level of biological protection.

This means that both Lynch and Thomas may have been infected.

The two reported their findings to their superiors.

But they all tacitly did not mention that they had been exposed to the samples.

At the same time, nearly 200 people in the isolation center responsible for keeping monkeys in Reston City had contact with sick monkeys, and 6 of them tested red.

However, they do not have any symptoms.

After in-depth research, the scientists found that what they were infected with should be a certain subtype, which is fatal to apes but does not cause disease in humans.

This is undoubtedly a relatively lucky discovery.

But just to be on the safe side, the biological laboratory decided to cull the rest of the monkeys.

Soon, they organized a small team to carry out this culling task.

Everyone is wearing protective clothing and equipped with air-supplied respirators.

In addition, they also need to check every room where the monkeys are kept, and make sure that each monkey is injected with tranquilizers and euthanasia drugs.

At the same time, make sure that the protective clothing will not be scratched by monkeys.

However, in the process of their implementation, an accident appeared.

There was a monkey in a room that escaped from its cage.

The room where the monkey was in was about nine meters long and 15 meters wide. It took several hours for the culling personnel to fail to catch it. Instead, it escaped through a narrow ventilation window.
In order to avoid unnecessary panic, this news is kept strictly confidential.

Afterwards, they completely sterilized the remaining isolation rooms.

Many were secretly relieved that some scientists believed the sample was aimed at ape-like primates and would not be harmful to humans.

Even after a period of time, people almost forgot about it.

However, what they don't know is.

After the cynomolgus monkey escaped from the laboratory, the microorganisms in its body mutated again...

at the same time.

Under the impetus of many parties, the war in Afghanistan finally broke out.

The incident immediately attracted the attention of the world.

After all, the September 911 incident caused heavy economic losses to the United States.

More importantly, this is simply a provocation.

The financial market has been most intuitively reflected, the Dow Jones and Nasdaq indexes are sluggish, and there is even a tendency to drop again.

To do so, they must retaliate against some potentially restless people, including consolidating the dominance of the dollar currency and oil energy.
The market rewards the foresighters the most.

As a normal person, it is naturally impossible for Chen Weidong to forget some major events happening around the world.

It seems reasonable to take advantage of this unique advantage to earn huge profits.

The subsequent free donations plunged the whole country into a sea of ​​joy.

However, only Chen Jie was heartbroken.

He didn't object to Chen Weidong donating money, but it was too much.

What a prodigal!

young!too young!
If you are not in charge of your family, you don't know the cost of firewood and rice, and you don't know the importance of money at all.

$2000 billion is enough for him to retire directly.

Even, he can be the richest man in the world.

Life is like this, what more can a husband ask for.

For this reason, he could not even eat for several days.

Only Li Yun and others sincerely admired them.

Most people like to stand on the moral high ground and ask others to give selflessly, but when it is their turn, they ask for tolerance.

Think in another way, and ask yourself if they have so much money, they will never be able to do such an understatement.

Many business owners are becoming more and more greedy for making money, wishing that he alone has money and everyone else is poor. There are too few people like Chen Weidong who are really willing to make money.

You know, the market value of Infinity Corporation in the Hong Kong stock market is only over 7000 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Fortunately, the ownership structure of their company is very simple, and the control is only in the hands of a few people.

Otherwise, the board of directors of any company will resolutely oppose this "stupid" behavior of distributing wealth.

"Okay, okay, isn't it just money, and there will be opportunities to earn it in the future."

When Chen Weidong saw Chen Jie lying on the sofa and moaning, he really couldn't stand it anymore, and hoped that he would be normal.

"It's easy to say that you can make so much money this time because of this unexpected incident. I don't believe that I will encounter such an opportunity again in the future."

Chen Jie still looked like he was half dead, and he had already reviewed the process of this plan several times in his heart.

Although he didn't understand why Ah Wei seemed to know this in advance, he also knew that this was an event with a very small probability that could never be met.

You will definitely be able to make money in the future, but it will definitely not be so easy.

When Chen Weidong saw the appearance of the third uncle, he didn't explain too much, presumably he will gradually understand in the future.

It is a crime to have huge capital.

Instead of being coveted by some people in your hands, it is better to send it to everyone directly.

In this way, even if someone wants to touch them in the future, they will have scruples.

Next, when they are ready to discuss where to go next.

The TV in the living room suddenly played a piece of news.

Microsoft released the latest generation of desktop operating system "Windows XP".

It is so good that many computer experts are full of praise for it, and even call it "an epoch-making, milestone product."

This indicates that Microsoft is still in an absolute monopoly in the field of operating systems.

No one can shake it.

Chen Weidong looked at it for a while, then turned around suddenly, and asked Chen Jie who was lying on the sofa: "How do you think their software compares with our company's?"

Chen Jie glanced at the TV host who was bragging endlessly. Although he couldn't understand what she was talking about, he couldn't help but twitched when he saw the rough software interface displayed on it, and spit out two words. words.

"Rubbish."
