Chapter 145 Biochemical Weapons
There is a very obvious scar on many people's arms. This vaccine scar named "planting flowers" in people's subconscious mind is vaccinia, which is the vaccine against smallpox.

In fact, it is BCG, which is used as a vaccine to prevent tuberculosis. It uses live non-toxic Mycobacterium bovis, and after being inoculated into the human body, it causes mild infection to produce immunity to Human tuberculosis. More than 90% of the recipients will form ulcers on the inoculation site for several weeks to half a year, and finally heal to form scars, commonly known as scars.

This scar is so like the scar of cowpox!

In fact, after 1984, domestic newborns have stopped vaccinating against vaccinia, and only scientists who study smallpox, specific medical staff, and other groups who may be exposed to this virus are vaccinated!Because vaccinia can cause serious side effects.Although that's rare.

What if the smallpox virus made a comeback?What will happen again? !Zhu Cheng had already imagined that scene!
The United States stopped injecting smallpox vaccine in 1972. After 20 years, the population has no immunity to smallpox, and the vast majority of countries have stopped the production and storage of smallpox vaccine.

The source of the smallpox vaccine is not smallpox virus, but from cattle.Discovered and prepared by British physician Edward Jenner.

Vaccinia virus is a virus that causes mild vaccinia lesions in cattle.If a person is infected with the virus, he will only experience mild discomfort and develop resistance against the vaccinia virus.Since the vaccinia virus has the same antigenic properties as the smallpox virus that causes human smallpox, people can also acquire immunity against the smallpox virus at the same time after being inoculated with vaccinia.

But Zhu Cheng couldn't figure out the reason for not destroying the smallpox vaccine.Why has this smallpox virus been preserved to this day!
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, USA, gave the reason for the study of smallpox virus, a virus unknown to humans, and published a new study in the journal "Immunology" in May 2010.

The other is the National Virus and Biotechnology Research Center in Novosibirsk, Russia. The reason given by them is: to protect biological diversity, what if a virus that humans cannot deal with appears, and it happens to be restrained by the smallpox virus?Who can tell what will happen in the future?

He doesn't know why this kind of reason can be passed in six international conferences!It's just that the specimen and live body of the virus are now in his hands.

Cree's Science Center will become the third place in the world where the smallpox virus is preserved.Zhu Cheng sighed and entered Omar's room, which was actually a warehouse.The home of Cree's domestic service robot "Ron" is used temporarily.

Such a virus is actually given as a gift. It is too extravagant to simply use it as a petition. Zhu Cheng has already felt the atmosphere of conspiracy. He does not believe that such an important thing will be simply taken by a rich man. arrive.

"Omar? I'm Zhu Cheng. It's the first time we meet, please take care of me." Zhu Cheng walked into the interrogation room with a smile on his face. He looked at Omar's disheveled hair and knew it was caused by the exhaustion of the journey.

"Although your people are very unfriendly, I still came here with the greatest sincerity. I believe you have seen it." Omar stood up, covering his head.He continued: "I don't know if you are satisfied with this gift?"

Zhu Cheng naturally saw that these small bottles were labeled "variola", which is the scientific name of smallpox.How could he not recognize it, the gray-black reagent, represented by black letters on a white background.He naturally knows what this is!
"Satisfied is satisfied, but I need to know how you got it? You should know that the smallpox virus is a thing of the American national fortune, how could it be picked up by you casually?" Zhu Cheng's national fortune has many meanings.Going back to before the founding of the United States, down to the present world hegemony, all have meaning.

"The World Association for the Advancement of Science, the price for buying you! He wants you to join the World Association for the Advancement of Science! Become a member of them! Even if my little money is multiplied by ten, it is impossible to bribe the head of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory! You know That is a laboratory affiliated to the U.S. Department of Energy, and the smallpox virus is kept in secret." Omar smiled.

"You know how powerful this association is. DDT, sugar, salt, and ethyl gasoline are all their products! They control the pace of science all over the world quite domineeringly. This is a gift inviting you to join the association, and there are many more! As long as you Want nothing you can't get!" Omar described the promotion in an exaggerated tone, purely because he was cornered by the promotion.

"Are you persuading me to join this promotion association?" He really thought about this proposal seriously, although it didn't take more than three seconds.

The expression on Omar's face froze for a moment, no matter how you look at it, Zhu Cheng is a fighter!The sudden hesitation at this moment made him confused for a while.

"Smallpox virus is just one of the gifts. They feel that an unknown virus that is extinct in the wild can open up friendly communication channels. These gifts also include more than [-]% of the shares of three listed companies! The ownership of three giant cruise ships! There are also three The number of members of the U.S. Congress! They sincerely hope that you can join." The expression on Omar's face was unprecedentedly lonely, and he thought he could be blessed here.Did not expect but did not expect to get such an answer.

"Actually, I don't dislike the association. I just think that one day they will sell me. I don't know yet. So to hell with the promotion association of Lao Shizi! You are welcome to join Kerui, Omar, you are a very talented And people who judge the situation. How about the research work on the smallpox virus? With Yang Haibin."

Zhu Cheng naturally knew about Omar's experience. This Omar is a doctor who graduated from the University of Washington, a member of the National Academy of Sciences, and a professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. These titles illustrate his professional ability.Since Omar has come to join him, let's make the best use of it!Now he has nowhere to go except Shancheng.

"To comply with the security regulations of the Cree Biolab, there is no better than the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. The security measures are in charge of artificial intelligence, which is directly responsible to me. Any small action may cause a chain reaction. You, don't mistake yourself " Zhu Cheng issued a warning, the mountain city is his home field, and he is not afraid of this guy having any unreasonable thoughts at all.

He left the room where Lao Omar was held, and turned to Yang Haibin's room. Seeing this senior brother whom he had never met before, he had extremely mixed feelings about this person, and there were already two people here, Wing Feng and Qi Shuli.

The conversation between the three of them was relatively peaceful, there were no quarrels, and they were all talking about their current situation.Hearing the news that the two had obtained their marriage certificates, some smiles returned to Yang Haibin's exhausted face.

"Congratulations! It was agreed at the beginning, the child will recognize me as a godfather!" Yang Haibin laughed and continued: "Is this our most promising junior? He is indeed the leader of our department , take the lead in terms of size!"

Zhu Cheng nodded, winked at the winger, and signaled the two of them to go out.The following content is not suitable for two people to hear. They are people who are obsessed with scientific research, and they should not have much emotion for Yang Haibin's handling.

When the two left the room, Zhu Cheng took out a document and said, "You have been away for five years, and you should not have come back. If Teacher Zhang hadn't protected you this time, you should be in the interrogation room of MSS instead of here. How do you feel when you resolutely left back then, and now you come back in a daze?"

Yang Haibin leaned against the wall and asked, "Is there any cigarettes? Give me one. I thought I was going to heaven, but when I got there, I found it was still human."

Zhu Cheng shook his head, how could they carry this thing on their students?

"Here is the result of your treatment. This is the preferential treatment that Teacher Zhang applied for. With my temper, you should go to the Northwest to plant potatoes!" Zhu Cheng threw a piece of paper to Yang Haibin angrily!When he left at the beginning, he ran away without saying a word, and Zhang Youlin even affected his normal promotion because of this.

This is a worse thing for the biological laboratory, which is already relatively poor in funding.And although Zhang Youlin didn't say anything, the funds were very tight during that time!

"Let's go clean, come back is nothing!" Zhu Cheng said, and left the room, and Yang Haibin picked up the piece of paper.This piece of paper is a statement on the restoration of his nationality. With this statement, he can apply for a new household registration and ID card.

Zhu Cheng commanded a "Ron", ready to let Ron follow him day and night. You must not have the intention of harming others, but you must have the intention of preventing others!He was also worried that this Yang Haibin would run away with that set of materials when he came back.Omar did the same.

After all the disturbance stopped, Zhu Cheng returned to the chairman's office, where Zhao Ling and Zhang Youlin had been waiting for him.

"It's not worth getting angry about this kind of person, teacher." Zhu Cheng greeted Zhang Youlin first, and continued: "The smallpox virus they sent is here." He took out a few dusty reagents from the safe behind him, Handed it to Zhang Youlin.

"Smallpox, this disease has ravaged Europe many times in the past 300 years. Later generations of scholars estimate that as many as 2 million people died of this virus. The nightmare of mankind!" Zhang Youlin sighed as he looked at the specimen.

"What I'm most afraid of is that someone will use it as a biochemical weapon to artificially create a plague. You must know that human beings don't have much resistance to smallpox now!" Zhu Cheng's words couldn't hide his worry that this kind of virus that can spread through the air, Once released from the vault, what kind of catastrophe will it be?
"Zhu Cheng, the receptionist transferred the phone and said that someone called you from England. They said it was Liu Yiming's classmate."
