492, it's a big deal
Huang Yi, has the cause of the accident been investigated?"
In the café of the laboratory, Gu Meng found Huang Yi and asked him for inside information.
Huang Yi nodded, "This time the incident came a little suddenly, and we were caught off guard, in order to understand the reason for the matter, the major laboratories sent tens of millions of people to investigate in Montazhou, and finally found out the reason."
"What is the reason?"
Gu Meng was a little puzzled, in major laboratories, dogs and wild wolves are rarely used as experimental subjects, let alone pet dogs for experiments, why is it related to genetic experiments?
"The management of the laboratory is not strict, and they have made mistakes in the handling of test specimens"
According to the regulations of each laboratory, after the death of the subject, it is to be sent to the incinerator for centralized destruction, and no slag is left.
But the staff of the Montenegro Laboratory only buried the dead test subjects in the soil.
"What does it matter?"
Gu Meng was puzzled, after the death of the experimental subject, could he still be resurrected?
Huang Yi touched his beard and said with a strange expression, "What I know from the local area shows that the test subject has been eaten"
"You mean, eating the meat of an experimental subject will cause the animal to mutate?" Gu Meng asked in surprise.
Huang Yi nodded seriously, "That's the case, we don't know whether direct nibbling will cause mutation, or continue to the second generation of mutations, we are conducting relevant experiments, and we will get a conclusion soon."
Three days later, the results of the experiment came out, and the flesh and blood of the test subject were extremely contaminated, with an 8% probability of causing genetic mutations in normal animals.
Carnivores have a higher probability of mutation.
As for whether this mutation will continue to the next generation, it will take two months to bear fruit.
This experiment was not only done by Marshall's laboratory, but also by other laboratories, but with a slight difference in probability.
On the third day, the results of the trial were published in the media.
A global sensation.
Now people are anxious to find out how many experiments have leaked.
It is understood that there are a total of 260 formal genetic research institutes in the world, and there are at least a few hundred informal genetic research institutes.
Formal research institutes are very strict when dealing with test subjects, and it is almost impossible for that to happen.
But what about the irregular?
According to reports, the culprit of several animal mutation incidents in Montaline was one of the small genetic research institutes, which could not afford to buy an incinerator, so they hastily buried them with soil, which caused the bad consequences.
In addition, the media also reported that there are more than 100 laboratories around the world that have been set up on islands, and their methods of handling test subjects are also irregular, and they directly throw test subjects into the sea.
Will these experiments lead to genetic mutations in marine organisms?
What is the number of variations?
What is the number of reproductions?
How to deal with it?
No one can give specific measures.
Gu Meng also learned in the laboratory that animals that mutated through this route had a slightly lower degree of mutation, but their lifespans were longer than those of the experiments.
This not only points to a new direction for the laboratory's research, but also makes the crisis more intractable.
At the beginning of February, there were several more animal attacks in the United States, this time not in Monta, but in other states, and at the same time, distant-water fishing companies reacted, and the fish in the sea became more violent.
Once their employees were bitten by a bluefin tuna on the deck, the sharks in the sea became more furious and would carry out suicide attacks on fishing boats.
Global gene stocks fell in response, falling 30% in less than a week, and more than 500 gene technologies declared bankruptcy.
The US government announced that it would tighten control over genetic research, and strictly assess the qualifications of various genetic laboratories, and that informal laboratories would be closed immediately.
Other countries have taken a stance and taken various measures to control their own genetic research.
Many countries have even declared genetic research illegal and called on countries around the world to stop genetic research.
Gene stocks fell again.
Subsequently, some media exposed that a certain brand of meat sausage may have been mixed with genetic meat.
At this time, no matter whether it is true or not, the public directly refused to buy a certain brand of meat sausage, resulting in the bankruptcy of that brand, and other meat brands, McEggy's, Kentucky and other brands were also affected.
The citizens of the United States are in danger and go to the streets to do things, and the situation gradually falls into chaos.
"Wang Ya, let's go home together for the New Year this year!"
Gu Meng was ready to go home, and before leaving, he found Wang Ya.
Last year, the Voice of Germany became popular, and the national radio and television stations saw the business opportunity, immediately introduced this program, and invited Wang Ya to be one of the leaders of this program.
The Voice of the United States produced two episodes, with 24.74 million viewers and a rating of 2.7, setting a new record for talent shows.
Through this show, Wang Ya completed a gorgeous turn, became a famous TV producer, one of the top ten elite women in the media of the United States, and also won this year's TV Award, in addition, she also became a multimillionaire.
Wang Ya hugged her arms and looked at the protest crowd downstairs of the TV station, feeling a little troubled.
Since the outbreak of the animal attack, the situation in the United States has suddenly become tense, and the audience has no intention of sitting at home to watch TV, and the ratings of the Voice of the United States have decreased significantly.
There is a lot of pressure on her, and the third issue of Voice of the United States is likely to encounter Waterloo.
She thought about it, the third episode of the program is finished, and it is better to go home for a break during the New Year.
Three days later, Gu Meng, Wang Ya, Li Zhener, Cheng Cheng, Liu Xiaoli, and Liu Qianqian returned to the capital for the New Year.
Due to the lack of funds in the country, there is currently only one genetic research institute, which is also established in the great northwest, which is very safe in the country.
He was worried that there would be an accident in Germany, so he took Leod, Nini, and the big-bellied Po Honggu and Xiao Gudong back to the capital to live temporarily, and other women were accompanied by bodyguards.
"Gu Meng, are you making a fuss, now there are only seven accidents in the United States, and there are no other places, why did you call everyone back?"
A few years ago, at Hanjing Airport, Teresa Teng got into the car with Xiao Gudong in her arms.
"Isn't this about the New Year, there are so many people!"
Gu Meng took the little goo dong and kissed her little cheek, the little guy is more than five years old this year, the longer he looks, the more he looks like her mother, with a round face, small dimples, and a pair of black smiling eyes, which is very cute.
Teresa Teng brushed the hair on her shoulders, "Gu Meng, will this incident turn into a global crisis?"
Gu Meng thought for a while, "On land, it shouldn't be, human beings are the overlords of the earth, with a total population of six or seven billion, and high-tech weapons, it's not a big problem to deal with a few mutant animals, it's just... The problem in the sea is not easy to deal with, the sea is too big, and no one can say exactly how many fish genes have been contaminated, and no one can predict what will become of them."
"But don't worry, I'm here to promise it's fine!"
Gu Meng was a little annoyed, now that the world has become like this, how much does it have to do with him?
"I hope it can be solved sooner!"
Teresa Teng looked out the window, Hanjing is now calm, everywhere is full of festive atmosphere, and a group of wild cats and wild dogs are occasionally seen looking for food in the garbage heap on the road, without a little tension.
But abroad, in Xiangjiang and Taiwan, government departments have begun to clean up stray cats and dogs on the streets, and also require families to take care of their pets, preferably in cages.
These changes are putting everyone at risk.
She somewhat understands Gu Meng's approach, in the current situation, it is the safest in China.
