The funds for the construction of the ladder were finally enough to start, but the time was still not ripe, and such a huge project would have to wait for the solar wind to pass.

At this juncture, there is going to be a "black swan event" in North America, and the whole world has to toss for a while.

Luo Sheng estimated that there might be a thunderstorm at any time, and now he must have started the ladder project rashly.

Cortana: "Master, a video from California is spreading rapidly on BV Video Sites, so maybe you should keep an eye on it. ”

Is it coming?

Luo Sheng immediately said: "Put the video out and take a look." ”

Cortana: "Please wait. ”

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

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

This is a video that must be mosaic on a domestic video website, the video recorder is a young man, and his upper body was filmed through a mirror, and the picture is extremely terrifying.

The skin on his body was flesh-red as if it were burning, and some of it had begun to show signs of festering, and the festering skin was scratched by his hands, because it was really unbearable.

He didn't know what strange illness he had, but halfway through the video he was cut to another scene where he went to a small clinic in town, and he filmed most of the people in the clinic being like him.

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

"What should come is here after all." Luo Sheng sighed lightly and immediately took the initiative to close the video.

An outbreak of the epidemic skin virus "Sequoia" in California finally broke out, and its name is derived from the California Sequoia Park, where the outbreak occurred, hence the name "Sequoia", of course, it is not named now.

When Luo Sheng saw the picture in the clinic, he already knew that the sequoia virus had begun to spread in California.

The virus is a filovirus, the incubation period is about eight to ten days, it is extremely infectious, the main way is contact transmission, the infected person has no abnormality in the incubation stage, the skin itches like burning, the skin seems to be burned by boiling water, and the skin ulcers at the end of the stage, which causes multiple infections to cause complications, and finally dies of chronic blood loss.

When you talk about filoviruses, you can't help but think of the name "Ebola", and the Ebola virus that makes people smell bad is also a filovirus species.

Morally speaking, Luo Sheng should have given early warning of the sequoia virus of this global pandemic.

But once this is done, it will definitely be thankless, and it will even be a big deal, this hat is buttoned up, and a javelin like a public enemy of the entire human race is pasted, even Luo Sheng can't parry.

Each family swept the snow in front of his own door, and he and others had nosebleeds.

People infected with the sequoia virus, even if they get a life back, their appearance and skin will be irreversibly destroyed, resulting in large-scale disfigurement, and basically life will be worse than death in this life.

Luo Sheng knows that the opportunity for the big white robot to pry open the international market has come, and the sequoia virus is extremely contagious, but the big white robot can cut off the source of infection and avoid the spread in the process of treatment.

In addition to the Great White Robot, the artificial skin under the Life Science Fund will usher in unprecedented opportunities.

This chemical composition, which perfectly replicates biological characteristics and the texture of human skin, can restore the disfigured person to its original appearance, and it will inevitably be the hope of a new life for those infected with the Sequoia virus.

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

At first, it didn't attract much attention, but just three days later, BV Video Network exploded attention, and the headline of "zombie virus" in Sequoia Park, California, was pushed to the top of Google searches.

It does smell like a zombie.

Netizens in North America reposted wildly through social networking sites owned by Google or Bluestar Technology, which detonated the whole network in just one day, and a large number of videos were uploaded on BV Video Online.

Some video UP owners went directly to the local Sequoia Town to play live broadcasts, and one of them was a video UP master from Liverpool who flew all the way to California to shoot videos.

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

On November 30, a hospital in Los Angeles received a patient with burnt skin and signs of ulceration all over his body.

The next day, the hospital in Los Angeles received more than a dozen patients with the same symptoms.

"Cork, this batch of patients has been confirmed to be infected with virulent filovirus, I am afraid that all the contacts have been infected, and it is not known how long the incubation period is."

"What do you say? Filovirus? Ebola or Marburg? ”

"No, it's a new variety, and it's likely to be spreading in the city."

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

"I recommend that the entire hospital be quarantined immediately and an emergency announcement be issued."

The next day, the news of the sudden outbreak of epidemic skin disease in Los Angeles dominated the front pages of major news websites, and the pictures of infected people were extremely frightening, and as time went on, more and more people were infected, and the whole of Los Angeles was already in danger.

The domestic response was swift, 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, when the sequoia virus had bloomed in North America and Europe, the whole of humanity was aware of the seriousness of the problem, but the best window of protection had been missed.

……

Science and Technology Complex Building.

Luo Sheng sat alone in the large living room, staring at the main screen in the living room, and at the moment the 13th set of news exclusive channels relayed the news picture reported by CNN, which was a report from Los Angeles.

Nowadays, this world-renowned international metropolis has been completely chaotic, and since three days ago, Los Angeles has officially entered the carnival of "city-wide zero yuan purchase".

Los Angeles in the news picture is in shambles, and all the goods in the major supermarkets are looted, whether it is food, drink, clothing, in short, there is no need to pay a penny, whoever grabs it is whoever.

This is the "city-wide zero dollar purchase" campaign currently underway in Los Angeles, the duration of which is uncertain, until the goods are swept away.

The news scene also cuts to Côte d'Azur's single flagship store in Los Angeles, where the company has three offline flagship stores, all of which are now closed urgently.

The outside of the store has been smashed by the local crowd, the ground is full of glass shards, one of the three local flagship stores was smashed open by the crowd, the shouts of the coaxing stimulated the emotions of these people, and the violent tendency index soared, as if it was a super carnival.

After the door was broken, the crowd rushed in, and then they began to scramble to "sweep the goods", and the mobile phones, game consoles, tablets and other accessories on the display table, as well as running to the cashier to smash and grab cash.

When they saw something, they grabbed it, and there was a fight.

The employees of the store were trembling, and they didn't dare to stop it, and this offline flagship store was not spared and was forced to join the carnival of "zero yuan purchase in the city".

After a round of cleaning, the entire store was in a mess, and even the 4K high-definition curtain on the wall was demolished.

Luo Sheng, who saw these news broadcast pictures, couldn't help but twitch at the angle of his elevation, and his mood at this moment only needs to be described in two words - speechless.

It's not that he feels sorry that this store was swept away, and he lost a few million dollars, but he died ten million dollars, which is nothing to him at all.

However, it is really speechless.

These people are not only barbaric, showing the evil and disorderly social form of human nature to the fullest, but also stupid and laughable.

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

These high-tech products have not been activated, and snatching them back is no different from a piece of scrap iron, thinking that it is an ordinary traditional commodity, not only that, as long as it is not completely smashed and the power is not exhausted, it can also be accurately located and recovered at that time.

It was, Cortana's voice rang out.

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

"Take it."
