Chapter 26 2002, China World Cup!

"Saburo Miyata, male, twenty-seven years old; Jiro Kotori, male, 26 years old; Masahiro Yamamoto, male, 27 years old; Ogura cheap, female, twenty-four years old......"

Ling Feng and Si Yue were sitting in a secret conference room, and Xiang Bo, the leader of the Dragon Group, was playing a slideshow.

Of the few Japanese on the screen, Ling Feng didn't know any of them, and he didn't understand what Xiang Bo meant.

"There are a total of 17 people here, all of whom are members of a pharmaceutical company affiliated with the University of Tokyo in Japan," Xiang Bo said, "We have confirmed the news that a group of 17 of them and their families will travel to Seoul, South Korea before the Spring Festival, and at that time there are many outdoor activities, which is a densely populated area." And there is also a great advantage to choosing these people, because several of them belong to the type that talks a lot, and when they talk, they spit and fly, which is more conducive to the spread of respiratory diseases......"

"Before that, we will arrange a small explosion to spread the ** virus, and then they will take it to South Korea," Xiang Bo showed a sinister smile on his face: "From Japan to South Korea, no one can suspect us, as long as we strengthen the physical examination of outsiders and isolate symptomatic tourists in time, ** will not burn to our land." ”

Siyue asked, "But if we strengthen epidemic prevention inspections, will it make other countries suspicious?" ”

"This is the time that needs to be grasped," Xiang Bo said with a smile, "This has been taken into account in our plan, you look at this person." ”

Xiang Bo showed a person's avatar with a slide and said: "This person's name is Chen Ran, it is Chinese, like Xu Yan, he is an honorary professor invited by the University of Tokyo in the past, of course, the nature of the work of the two is not the same, Chen Ran will return to China before the Chinese New Year, and the task we arranged for him is to let him bring ** to China......"

Ling Feng immediately slapped his thigh and shouted, "Gao Ming! ”

A whole new virus, a whole new kind of symptoms.

**, this term is still not known, let the guy named Chen Ran bring **back to China first, which gives China a reason to discover this virus and impose external population restrictions!

And, if you check it a little, you will immediately know that this disease was brought back from Japan!

In this way, the source of infection in South Korea and Japan can also be figured out, but after such a delay, not more, in just a few days, the ** virus will spread as quickly as a plague!

Japan and South Korea live the same lunar Spring Festival, at that time when visiting relatives and friends, don't forget to come to the sentence "This year's festival does not receive gifts, only receive gifts ** type".

On January 24, 2002, 20 days before the Spring Festival, a small explosion occurred at a pharmaceutical company affiliated with the University of Tokyo, and only one backup laboratory was blown up, without any casualties......

The news was a small header in the local newspapers in Tokyo, and almost no one knew about it, but after a few months, the backup lab became a household name.

On January 31, 2002, Yang Wei Saburo and his entourage went to Seoul, and the ** Blame Plan was officially launched.

Because of the mastery of virus samples and related information in advance, it is not difficult to develop the corresponding specific drugs, and one year is enough time for those experts to slightly modify the virus and develop the corresponding antidote formula.

In addition, reducing the activity of certain enzymes in the virus can increase the incubation period and control it to about one month, so that there is enough time to spread the disease, and when the time comes, no matter who will be caught off guard.

Outsiders are closely monitored and controlled, especially tourists and students returning from Japan and South Korea, and the special medical team is on standby around the clock to not worry about the spread of the virus in China.

Japan uses Tokyo as the axis to radiate outward, so it is natural to increase the intensity of poisoning in Tokyo, because among the two countries, it is enough to teach South Korea a lesson, but for Japan, there is no need to be polite to them!

By surveillance, more than 12,000 people in Tokyo who went out spread the ** virus to the four islands of Japan...... As the capital of Japan, there are still a lot of outsiders, and in time for the Chinese New Year, many people will choose to go home at this time, and at the same time bring the virus back.

Tens of thousands of ** virus carriers brought seeds to all parts of Japan during the Chinese New Year, and at the same time, Yang Wei Saburo and others also lived up to expectations, picking up crowded places in Seoul, and soon, through these dense crowds continued to spread the virus.

However, South Korea has been hit much less by comparison, after all, they are only "entrained", and not fatally hit like Japan.

The reason why the country is behind this matter is naturally justified, and the purpose is not to accompany Ling Feng like this with the right to host the World Cup.

You know, the spread of such a terrible disease is also a heavy blow to the Japanese economy!

Of course, robbing them of the right to host the World Cup is also a blow to Japan, because during the World Cup, the host country's income is still very considerable.

On February 28, 2002, Tokyo, Japan, was the first to find the first case of ** disease.

Dizziness, cough, fever, dyspnea, and tests that are not common pneumonia.

But the disease was not immediately taken seriously until three days later......

Like a plague, it broke out in an instant!

Hospitals of all sizes, mainly in Tokyo, are overcrowded, and all of them have similar symptoms, and at the same time, similar patients have appeared in Seoul, South Korea, and the number continues to increase.

On 2 March 2002, the China Health and Epidemic Prevention Station announced that a similar case had been detected in Shanghai.

On March 3, the Japanese health authorities urgently announced that three ** patients had died, confirming that it was a highly contagious disease, called SARS, and asked the International Red Cross for help.

As of March 4, a total of 15,400 ** cases and 412 deaths have been detected in Japan, 3,500 cases and 57 deaths in South Korea, and three cases in China, with zero deaths, and this number is increasing dramatically.

The Chinese Health and Epidemic Prevention Station announced that it had isolated the ** patient and the people he had been in contact with, confident that the virus would not break out.

But on the part of Japan and South Korea, it is a headache!

As of March 15, the number of patients or suspected symptoms found in Japan exceeded the 100,000 mark, the death toll exceeded 2,000, and all Japanese medical institutions were almost paralyzed, because many doctors and nurses did not do any protective measures when facing patients in the early stage, resulting in them themselves being infected.

Ling Feng leisurely sat on the sofa with Siyue in his arms and watched the news, and said with a smile: "It seems that the virus created here can really pass the ISO9001 certification, anyway, at least no one will report this as a fake today." ”

The virus is so fierce and impactful that it is enough to shock the whole world, especially now that it is spring, which is a period of frequent diseases, and the influenza and other symptoms that appear with ** also give the Japanese government a headache, because they are unable to face other diseases.

The International Red Cross urgently called on the world to give aid to the two countries where the virus broke out, but the average country also gave some money - joke, such a terrible infectious disease, who would dare to touch it?

Neighboring North Korea was also affected, but Chinese mainland until early April, a total of only five ** patients were found, and the efficiency of China's health department has been unanimously praised by the public.

Several major disease outbreaks in Japan and South Korea have been completely paralyzed, schools have been closed, companies have closed, hospitals are overcrowded, more than 10 people are not allowed to gather, and the losses caused by not going to work for many days alone are already astronomical.

At this time, the whole world was discussing this issue, but Ling Feng would not care about any other department, what he cared about was the opinion of FIFA.

On April 2, 2002, FIFA convened an emergency meeting to discuss the cancellation of the right to host the World Cup in South Korea and Japan in two months!

It's finally here!

The representatives of South Korea and Japan almost burst into tears, paraphrased the words of the president of the Chilean Football Federation in 1962: "We have nothing left, we can't afford to lose the World Cup again!" ”

But it doesn't work, such a terrible virus will make the impact of the World Cup much less impactful, and players and fans are reluctant to come to this dangerous country and risk their lives to play a game.

Next, who will take over the hosting rights of the World Cup has become a hot topic.

Mexico was the first to stand up, they are good people, and they have done more than one job to take over other people's jobs, but this time the most competitive is not Mexico, but China.

The representative of China said categorically that China's achievements in disease control are obvious to all, and when South Korea and Japan were hit so hard, there were less than 10 patients and suspected cases of type pneumonia in China so far.

"The growth of Chinese football in recent years is obvious to all," said the Chinese representative in an impassioned speech: "Not only in terms of team results, but also in terms of hardware, China's current sports facilities are fully capable of hosting such a large-scale competition as the World Cup immediately!" ”

No one can refute this, because in the just-concluded World Club Cup, the stadiums of the eight cities involved in the hosting, whether it is construction, turf or the number of fans that can be accommodated, have far exceeded the general international standards, and it is absolutely enough to host the World Cup, and these stadiums are all newly built, which is equivalent to China getting the right to host the World Cup a few years in advance, and the new World Cup stadiums built in recent years.

The smallest of those eight stadiums can accommodate 90,000 people, and this number alone is enough to make the people of FIFA nod!

But the only obstacle is that China is too close to Japan and South Korea!

"China's hardware facilities can definitely meet the requirements of the World Cup, which everyone knows, and can conduct field investigations, and China has participated in the World Cup and achieved a good ranking, from this point of view, we are more qualified than South Korea and even the Japanese team that has never participated in the World Cup!"

"In response to everyone's concern about whether the fans of South Korea and Japan will bring the first virus, I think that no matter who the host country is given to, as long as South Korea and Japan can continue to participate in this World Cup, it is absolutely unavoidable!"

…… Silence, or silence, the meaning of the Chinese representative's remarks is obvious, not only to snatch away the right to host the World Cup from South Korea and Japan, but also to ...... Two of them were not allowed to participate in the World Cup in '02!

"We have to think about the people of our country, as well as the players and fans of the participating countries, South Korea and Japan are no longer the hosts, they no longer enjoy the privileges of the hosts, neither team has been able to participate in the Asian qualifiers for this World Cup, and we don't know if they are strong enough to meet the standards of the World Cup, not to mention, Japan is still a country that has never participated in the World Cup...... Everyone also knows that home advantage is quite terrible, if a team itself does not have enough strength, but because of the home advantage, affecting the opposing players and even the referee on the field and getting a good position, is this the result what the World Cup organizing committee wants to see? ”

Poison! It's so poisonous!

A few words and even a fight, directly take the strength of South Korea and Japan to make a fuss, as we all know, now there is no team in Asia that can compete with China, the Chinese just said so, the two countries can not find a reason to fight back, let alone them, even if the entire Asian international team is gathered to form a so-called star team, it is far from the opponent of the Chinese team!

But of course, such statements are only official, to put it bluntly, for fans all over the world, and for the delegates who can really decide the right to host the World Cup, these statements have no meaning.

The World Cup is a big cake!

Suddenly something like this happens, who doesn't want a piece of the pie?

But FIFA, from President Blatter to some other key officials, seem to be more biased towards China - no way, at such an important juncture, Ling Feng naturally wants to take out the trump card, while promising benefits, while taking out the evidence of match-fixing, coercion and temptation have a big posture if you dare not let Lao Tzu succeed.

At the same time, the football association officials of Germany, France, Spain, Italy and other countries, Ling Feng also visited them one by one, and Brazil, Argentina and other countries were not missing.

France has just hosted the World Cup, and Germany will host the next World Cup, and the two biggest competitors are embarrassed to participate, which gives China a great opportunity.

Some football celebrities have also stood up to support China to host this World Cup, and now the Chinese team's prestige in international football is still very high, and some celebrities believe that South Korea and Japan are not qualified to host top events such as the World Cup in the FIFA world rankings, and their participation will reduce the level of the World Cup.

Of course, there are also those who are worried that the Chinese team will win the championship.

Because China's strength is very strong now, there is every hope of winning the championship, if it is at home, then the hope will be greatly increased!

However, the strong team in this world had a good relationship with Ling Feng, and after promising a bunch of benefits, his tone gradually relaxed.

Finally, FIFA will form a joint inspection team to conduct an emergency inspection of sports facilities in China and Mexico before re-voting.

As for South Korea and Japan, I'm sorry, but your participation will bring a huge crisis to this World Cup, because your fans are so dangerous, what if you lose the game and your fans spit in the faces of the fans of other countries?! That's a great weapon to kill!

With China and Mexico both in the round of 32 of the World Cup, the remaining two places will be won by the top two teams from Europe, Africa, Asia and the Americas who have been eliminated from the top two play-offs.

South Korea and Japan wanted to cry without tears, not only did they lose the right to host the World Cup, but they also lost their qualifications!

The money spent on building so many stadiums is equivalent to a waste!

They protested, they appealed, but to no avail, and in the end it was very annoying, and FIFA gave a sentence: "It's a big deal that in the 06 World Cup, let you take advantage of it when you qualify." ”

But everyone knows that this is an empty phrase.

World Cup places! There are only four in Asia, so will they give you South Korea and Japan for nothing? China doesn't matter, we are strong, but there is only one quota, or even only half a quota, that is also our China, can Saudi Arabia and Iran be willing? Can Australia be willing?!

On April 6, 2002, a FIFA delegation of 30 participating countries went to China for a week-long field trip, followed by a trip to Mexico.

On April 21, 2002, at the FIFA headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland, the voting for the host country of the 2002 World Cup finally took place.

The voting was conducted by secret ballot, with 28 teams and representatives of FIFA voting.

At 2:15 a.m. Beijing time, FIFA President Sepp Blatter opened the last envelope and read slowly: "The host country of the 2002 World Cup is ......" He looked around slightly, and then continued:

"China!"
