Chapter 280: Undercurrent
Everything is relative, there is yin and there is yang. Humans can influence and transform the environment, and the environment can also influence and transform humans. This virus crisis is a manifestation of environmental impact and human transformation.
Just as the action of force is mutual. How ruthless people are in destroying the environment, how much the environment will fight back against human beings! In the end, it is human beings who are unlucky to hurt each other. Because the environment can exist without humans, at most it is so bad that it takes a long time to repair, but humans cannot live alone without the environment.
Without water, a person can survive for three days, without food and water to drink, a person can survive for three weeks, and without air, he cannot live for even three minutes. It may vary from person to person, but these are all ordinary people's data, which may increase or decrease slightly, but the change will not be great. Before human beings have the ability to absorb energy from the surrounding environment to survive, human beings have to absorb all the survival resources from nature. So we have to be kind to nature, we have to protect the environment and live in harmony with them. When the environment is well protected, it is not only us who benefits, but also future generations. If the environment is not protected well, it is we who suffer, and if it is serious, there will be no future generations!
Due to the impact of the new coronavirus epidemic, Gaoshan Country has recently adopted a large number of Internet offices, using video conferences, video calls, e-government and other means to issue orders and transmit documents.
Reduce unnecessary gatherings, start with public officials, and set a good example for the public. However, the normal operation of the government and the security of the country cannot be stopped because of the epidemic. In these places, it is important to check, isolate, and treat in a timely manner.
Wang Tong and others reduced direct meetings to discuss decision-making and issue government decrees. The first is to avoid suspicion and reduce misunderstandings with ministers. If someone is infected, it's hard to figure out where? People who have been in contact with it are suspicious. The second is to set an example for the people and express that they will share weal and woe with the people.
However, important decision-making decisions were made by several ministers in a confidential place together with Wang Tong and others. It's just that before the meeting, everyone's health status is checked. Everyone can understand that if all the important people in a country are infected with the virus, the country will be shut down.
Finding a balance between security, confidentiality and epidemic prevention and control should not leave a gap for security and confidentiality because of epidemic prevention and control. The epidemic itself has brought huge human and economic losses, and if because of the epidemic, we are suffering losses in confidentiality, security, intelligence, technology, patents, etc., it will be even worse!
Although the epidemic situation in the mountain country has been basically controlled, two new problems have emerged. That is, the imported virus from abroad and the asymptomatic infected people have not all been identified and sent to the hospital for treatment. Therefore, the country of Takayama has also closed its borders and banned foreigners from entering the country except for necessary international exchanges and activities. At the same time, we will vigorously search for asymptomatic infections, starting from the following aspects:
The first is the medical observation of close contacts with the patient;
second, the investigation of cluster epidemics;
the third is the tracing of the source of infection;
Fourth, some people with a history of travel or residence in areas where new crown pneumonia cases continue to spread at home and abroad will be tested.
5. Sampling and inspection of virus outbreak areas shall be conducted at a rate of 1/10,000. If an asymptomatic infected person is found to have slipped through the net, feel around the finder to find out close contacts, and then randomly check the ratio of 1 in 1,000 until there are no asymptomatic infected people. In order to save medical resources, those who have already done spot checks will no longer participate in repeated spot checks.
Up to now, the number of confirmed infections in Gaoshan Country is 3,364, 71 deaths, 2,892 cured, 401 people are being treated in hospitals, 0 new infections, 100 people are imported from abroad, the total number of suspected cases is 4,642, and a total of 88,651 people have been isolated.
Since there was no suitable candidate in the intelligence department, Wang Tong had to take on the role of the head of the intelligence department himself.
Received a report from his subordinates, at 12:07 noon on XX month, XX year, Hu Mingzhi (i.e., Wuming) and Prime Minister Hu He'an had dinner in Tianxianglou and had a very happy conversation.
Hu He'an said: "I can say goodbye to the fox king." My heart is very happy, I toast you!"
Wuming said: "There is no fox king in the world, only Wuming." You and I have a drink together, and we will know each other in vain!"
The two raised their glasses and touched each other, taking a sip.
Hu He'an said: "That's very good! Fox King, oh, Master Wuming, if you need anything, you can tell me, and I will do my best to share your worries." ”
Wu Ming said: "Eat vegetables, eat vegetables, although the wine is delicious, do not drink too much." If the food is delicious, it can be enjoyed. ”
The two of them picked up the delicacies, sometimes ate vegetables, sometimes poured wine, chatted, bragged and did not make drafts, so unhappy!
Soon after, the two of them turned red and their eyes were misty.
Hu He'an said in a low voice: "King, the minister is sorry for you. I can't help you, I can only watch you suffer under house arrest! You can vent any grievances to me. If you want to beat or scold, I will never fight back!"
Wu Ming's expression was grim, and he said loudly: "Prime Minister, you are drunk and confused! Hugh is talking nonsense, causing trouble for you and me! Now there is only one king in Gaoshan Country, that is, the Taiji God King, who is my brother-in-law. If it weren't for him, would I have been able to escape the bombing? Can you resist the attack of the cause? If we have two hearts, wouldn't we be ungrateful and a pig or a dog would be as good as a pig? If we hear your nonsense again, we won't even be able to be friends!"
Hu He'an seemed to be awakened by the scolding, and hurriedly apologized: "It's all my fault! Master Wuming forgives my sin! I drank a few more sips of wine, and I became delirious! I said something I shouldn't have said!"
Wu Ming waved his hand and said, "My ambition is not to be a political country, but to cultivate immortality." In the past, because I didn't dare to live up to your expectations, I went against my will. Now that my brother-in-law has taken over the burden on my body, so that I can cultivate with peace of mind, it is too late for me to be grateful! How can we learn from the capriciousness of villains? Although we are a fox clan, we are also influenced by Chinese culture, and we must know how to be courteous, righteous, honest, and repayable, so that we can make good connections and go further on the road in the future!"
Hu He'an said: "Master Wuming has taught me the right lesson! I lost my words after drinking, and I don't have the demeanor of a minister. I'm going to go back and think about it behind closed doors. In the future, I will definitely serve the country wholeheartedly, and no longer think about my personal family. ”
Wu Ming said: "This building has good wine and food, and we will meet again when we are free!"
Hu He'an said: "Yes, Master Wuming, I will retire first!"
After Hu He'an left, Wuming finished drinking the wine in the bottle and shouted, "Boss, settle the bill!"
The fat-headed and big-eared lobby manager replied, "Before you come up, that Mr. Hu has already paid for the meal." ”
Wu Ming said: "He has a heart!" After speaking, he walked downstairs, but secretly said in his heart: "Whether he really remembers my goodness, or tests me with other purposes, my answer can reassure everyone! Sometimes when you put it down, you will find that you are light." The world is like this, everything needs to take time, energy, effort, emotion, tools, machines, materials, and so on, and then it is possible to have gains. ”
Wang Tong read it quickly and threw it aside. Pick up the second copy and continue reading.
The impact of the epidemic has delayed spring plowing in Pakistan and Indu, reducing the sown area and reducing grain production. African locusts are raging in the three East African countries of Kampai, Ethiopia and Sori. Subsequently, they migrated into Ugan, Tanzania, Shudan, Aman, Sala, Yemen, Boi, Pakistan, Indu and other countries, causing vegetation destruction and grain harvest.
Fall armyworm has broken out in Middle-earth, Siam, Africa, Indu, Meligan, Canada and other regions, resulting in reduced yields or even no harvest of rice, sugarcane, maize, Asteraceae, cruciferous and other crops.
Climatic anomalies such as droughts, heavy rains, hailstorms, and hurricanes, as well as natural disasters such as forest fires, tsunamis, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions, have destroyed land and failed or reduced the yield of food crops.
Coupled with the panic of the epidemic, people began to hoard food, daily necessities, medical and other materials, resulting in a rapid rise in food prices.
Many countries have begun to take precautions and ban grain exports.
Several of the world's major grain companies began to secretly purchase grain in case of contingency.
There is food in the hand, and there is no panic in the heart. We should also plan ahead.
Self-sufficiency is the greatest guarantee. When you buy someone else's stuff, the decision is in the hands of someone else, and if you want to sell it to you, you can sell it to you, and if you don't want to sell it, even if you have money, you can't buy it.
Obviously, the earth has entered an era of frequent disasters, and no one knows what disasters will appear in the future that they have not seen. Even if they are all disasters that have been seen before, as long as they erupt more rapidly and violently, human beings are very likely to be powerless and can only do their best to obey the destiny of heaven! Human beings are still too small to control the weather and climate, nor can they control and make use of natural disasters. What we can do is prevent, detect, save lives and reduce losses.
Meiligan sent troops to the Middle East and killed high-ranking military generals of hostile countries, stepping out of the pace of military adventurism. Now the follow-up operation has been temporarily paused due to the epidemic, but the intelligence and material preparations have not stopped. The wounded tiger is the most dangerous, it must find prey to compensate for its own bleeding, or it will die of weakness. The best prey is a rich but not powerful enemy, or a country with vital interests and supplies.
The military industries of many countries are beginning to operate, after all, people are harmless and hurtful! Every major economic crisis will lead to a reshuffle of global power, and this is the time for careerists to show their talents. We should be on strict guard against the intention of certain countries to launch wars of aggression against other countries in order to divert internal contradictions.
When the global pandemic begins to end, it does not necessarily mean that the world will be at peace. It could well be the calm before the storm, and another war would break out. This is the post-epidemic reckoning, and some countries always have to find a scapegoat to appease domestic grievances and blame for their own mistakes. The greater the damage caused by the pandemic, the more urgent they will be to shake the blame and the more likely they will be to start a war.
The first thing to launch is a war of public opinion, after all, it is necessary to "make a name for itself" and under the banner of "justice", and sometimes to deceive people is to deceive yourself first, so that the fake is like the real one. In this way, people who do not know the truth and are encouraged to risk their lives for their own ends.
The second is cyber warfare and intelligence warfare, stealing important intelligence and scientific and technological achievements of the enemy country, and obtaining control of the enemy's network system, control of the weapon system, and information on the distribution of troops. This kind of thing is a piece of cake for countries with software backdoors and hardware backdoors. Not to mention that they also have cybersecurity forces that specialize in surveillance, sabotage, and intelligence gathering. Don't fight uncertain battles, know yourself and know your opponent, you can win all battles!
In the end, they will attack with weapons to destroy the resistance of the enemy country and take back wealth, materials, resources, population, and so on from them.
Just like a virus outbreak, all schemes are brewing in dark corners, waiting for their moment in the dark, and then exploding.
