Global Monopoly of Technology

The funds for building the ladder are finally enough to start, but the time is still immature. Such a huge project can only be started after the solar wind has passed.

At this juncture, a "black swan incident" is about to happen in North America, and the whole world has to struggle for a while.

Luo Sheng estimated that the thunder might explode at any time, and now he must have started the ladder project rashly.

Xiaona: "Master, a video uploaded from California, North America is rapidly spreading on the BV video website. Maybe you should pay attention."

Are you here?

Luo Sheng immediately said, "Show the video and see."

Xiaona: "Please wait."

However, in a moment, the home screen of Luo Sheng's office jumped to the page, and a short video from the BV video website popped up. It was only less than 2 minutes long, and it was a video recorded by the user himself with his mobile phone.

The upload time is displayed two days ago, but the number of clicks and plays has exceeded 800,000, and there are thousands of comments.

This is a video that must be put on a domestic video website. The video recorder is a young man who shot his upper body through a mirror. The picture is extremely terrifying.

The skin on his body turned flesh red like burning, and part of it had begun to show signs of festering. The festering skin was scratched by his hands, because it was unbearable.

He didn't know what strange disease he had. Halfway through the video, another scene was edited. It was him coming to a small clinic in the town. He filmed that most of the people in the clinic were the same as him.

According to his monologue, he originally wanted to use the free medical treatment channel, but he needed to make an appointment to queue up, and the strange disease on his body had been tormenting him for three days, and he couldn't bear it.

"It's finally here." Luo Sheng sighed, and immediately closed the video.

An epidemic skin virus "Sequoia" that broke out in California finally broke out. Its name originated from the California Sequoia Park, where it broke out, so it was named "Sequoia". Of course, it has not been named now.

When Luo Sheng saw the pictures in the clinic, he knew that the Sequoia virus had begun to spread in California.

The virus is a filovirus with an incubation period of about eight to ten days. It is highly contagious. The main route is contact transmission. The infected person does not have any abnormality during the incubation period. , the skin seems to be scalded by boiling water, and at the end stage, the skin will fester, which will cause multiple infections and complications, and eventually die from chronic blood loss.

Talking about filovirus, people can't help but think of the name "Ebola".

Morally speaking, Luo Sheng should have given advance warning of this global pandemic of Sequoia virus.

But once this is done, it will definitely be thankless, and it will even cause a major event. This hat is buckled up and attached with a javelin like the entire public enemy of mankind. Even Luo Sheng can't stand it.

Each family sweeps the snow in front of their own door, and cares about the nosebleeds of others.

People infected with Sequoia virus, even if they save their lives, their appearance and skin will be irreversibly destroyed, resulting in large-scale disfigurement. Basically, life will be worse than death in this life.

Luo Sheng knew that the opportunity for Dabai Robot to pry open the international market came. Sequoia virus is extremely contagious, but Dabai Robot can cut off the source of infection and avoid the spread during the treatment process.

In addition to Dabai Robot, the artificial skin under the Life Science Foundation will usher in unprecedented opportunities.

This chemical composition of perfectly replicating biological features and the texture of human skin can restore the original appearance of the disfigured, and it will inevitably become the hope of the redwood virus infection.

In the following days, Luo Sheng silently paid attention to the situation of Sequoia virus every day.

It didn't attract much attention at first, but only three days later, the BV video network detonated the attention, and the title of "zombie virus" in Sequoia Park, California was pushed to the top search term on Google.

It does smell like zombies.

Netizens in North America reposted it frantically through Google or Bluestar's social networking sites, which exploded the entire network in just one day, and a large number of videos were uploaded on the BV video network.

Some video UP hosts went directly to the local Sequoia town to play live broadcasts. One of the video UP hosts from Liverpool flew all the way to California to shoot videos.

These hotheads are completely unaware of the seriousness of the problem.

On November 30, a hospital in Los Angeles received a patient who also had red skin with signs of ulceration.

On the second day, the hospital in Los Angeles successively received more than a dozen patients with the same symptoms.

"Coke, these patients have been confirmed to be infected with a severe filovirus. I am afraid that all the contacts have been infected. I don't know how long the incubation period is."

"What did you say? Filovirus? Ebola or Marburg?"

"None of them, it's a new breed, and it's very likely that it has spread in the city."

"God! This is the Los Angeles Metropolis..."

"I suggest immediately isolating the entire hospital and issuing an emergency announcement."

The next day, news of a sudden outbreak of a skin disease in Los Angeles dominated the headlines of major news websites. The pictures of infected people were extremely scary. As time passed, more and more people were infected, and the entire Los Angeles was infected. Everyone is already in danger.

The country responded quickly, but other countries and even other states in the United States did not even pay attention.

Three days later, there was also a case in Europe and a case in Seattle, North America.

By December, the Sequoia virus bloomed directly in North America and Europe. At this time, all human beings realized the seriousness of the problem, but the best protection window had been missed.

...

Science and Technology Complex Building.

Luo Sheng was sitting alone in the large living room, staring at the main screen of the living room. At this moment, the news screen of the 13th exclusive news channel was broadcasting the report, which was a report from Los Angeles.

At present, this world-renowned international metropolis has been completely chaotic. Since three days ago, Los Angeles has officially entered the "city-wide zero-yuan shopping" carnival event.

Los Angeles in the news footage was a mess, and all the goods in the major supermarkets were looted. Whether it was food, drink, or clothes, there was no need to pay a penny, and whoever got it was whoever got it.

This is the "city-wide zero-dollar purchase" campaign currently underway in Los Angeles. The duration is uncertain and the goods are swept away.

The news screen also switched to Cote d'Azur's single flagship store in Los Angeles. The company has three offline single flagship stores in this city, all of which are urgently closed at this moment.

The outside of the store has been smashed to pieces by the local crowd, and the ground is full of glass shards. One of the three local flagship stores was smashed open by the crowd. The roaring shouts stimulated the emotions of these people, and the violence tendency index skyrocketed. , as if it was a super big carnival.

After the door was broken, the crowd filed in, and then began to scramble to "sweep the goods". The mobile phones, game consoles, tablets, and other accessories on the display stand, as well as those who ran to the cashier to smash and snatch cash.

They grabbed whatever they saw, and there was a fight.

The employees of the store were trembling and did not dare to stop it. The offline flagship store was not spared and was forced to join the carnival of "the city's zero yuan purchase".

After a round of sweeping, the entire store was in a mess, and even the 4K high-definition screen on the wall was removed.

Luo Sheng, who saw these news broadcasts, couldn't help but twitched up. At this moment, he only needed two words to describe his mood - speechless.

It's not that I feel bad that this store was wiped out, and it only lost a few million dollars. It was worth 10 million dollars. This amount of money was irrelevant to him at all.

But really speechless.

These people are not only savage, but also vividly show the evil of human nature and the disordered social form, but they are also ridiculously stupid.

At this moment, Luo Sheng thought to himself: Don't they understand that those smartphones, tablets, and game consoles in the store can be locked by the company?

These high-tech products have not been activated, and they are no different from scrap iron when they are snatched back. They think they are ordinary traditional commodities. Not only that, as long as they are not completely smashed and the power is not used up, they can still be accurately located at that time. recover.

This is, Xiaona's voice sounded.

"Master, Mr. Yao has sent a video connection request."

"Come here."
