Chapter 103 Tradition, Summit, Pie
Beijing
The No. 7 Courtyard on the north bank of Yuyuantan Park, within the Third Ring Road, is located here. The property with the highest housing prices in Beijing. The price per square meter of the lakeside mansion was as high as 300,000 yuan when it opened, but later it dropped to 130,000 yuan. The owner of a large mansion of about 600 square meters here is named Liu Baofeng.
Before retiring, Liu Baofeng's grandfathers enjoyed the treatment of state cadres. They once lived in the cadre family courtyard. Later, they went to Liu Baofeng's father's generation and withdrew from the political stage and turned to the business world. They began to "drift" in buying a house in Beijing.
Until Liu Baofeng seized the opportunity to integrate industry resources and build Fengbao Group, he was driven by self-esteem on the one hand, and on the other hand, to make up for his shabby wedding with his wife before starting from scratch. He chose to move here when the sale of Diaoyutai No. 7 Courtyard was launched. At that time, he spent nearly 200 million yuan. Even if the housing prices here dropped sharply, he would not regret it.
The Liu family has a tradition that goes against the choice of the younger generation who are capable of establishing their own business and separating their parents and elders. From the moment Liu Baofeng was born, he has lived with his parents, grandparents. Until today, Liu Baofeng has the financial resources to buy hundreds or thousands of luxury houses, but in this lakeside mansion, three generations are still living together, and soon four generations will live together in the same room.
In the words of Grandpa Liu Baofeng, family members are called family members when they live together. If they live separately, they will separate the family and people will be dissolute.
Early in the morning, three generations sat around the dining table in the spacious dining room on the first floor. Liu Baofeng's grandfather passed away a year ago. For example, the grandmother, who is nearly 100 years old, is unable to sit in a wheelchair. Her seat is in the main seat.
Qin Qing, who is outstanding in style, has gained weight recently. The most important thing is her bulging belly, which shows that she is pregnant and has been around for a long time. She sat next to her grandma, carrying a bowl of porridge to feed her grandma, and occasionally paired some side dishes.
Grandma just couldn't lift her arms, so she could speak without any problem with her mouth.
"Hmph, what's the use of asking for a daughter-in-law? Or is it a filial piety of the granddaughter-in-law."
The old man has always been silly and he would quarrel with his daughter-in-law from time to time. Liu Baofeng's mother has become accustomed to it. She and her husband have breakfast slowly. She completely treat the old man's complaints as if they are indifferent to her ears.
"I heard that there has been a plague outside recently. I stay at home if I have nothing to do. Don't eat meat, follow me to eat vegetarian food, so as not to survive, my old lady."
The old man's mouth was poisonous, but at least he said it was quite reliable. It was no exaggeration to say that s2 was a plague.
After procrastinating for most of the day, Liu Baofeng, who had come down from the upstairs, was dressed neatly. He looked grim and came to the dining room. His mother served him a bowl of porridge and placed it on his fixed table.
Liu Baofeng walked to his grandmother, squatted down and gently lifted her arms, and slowly moved her joints.
This is something he must do whenever he is at home and wakes up every morning to massage the elderly and promote blood circulation and muscles. Although he is at this age, the elderly's body is heading for destruction, he still does this without any impact.
"Grandma, how did you say we left the capital today?"
"What did you say?"
The old man frowned and shouted at Liu Baofeng.
This is also the reason why others are unwilling to talk to her. It is hard and exhausted. People who are impatient may get angry after a few words.
Liu Baofeng suddenly smiled with a serious expression, reached out to touch his grandmother's gray hair, then leaned over and said in her ear with a normal volume: "Grandma. Are you willing to leave the capital today?"
The old man understood now, and she smiled kindly and said loudly: "The grandson doesn't dislike the old woman, you can go anywhere."
Liu Baofeng laughed and continued to move his grandmother's arms, then massage her shoulder joints. He kept moving his hands, turned his head and said to his parents, "The plane is ready. After I go to the meeting, we will fly to Tianhai."
The father frowned and said, "When sa came, we didn't run away, and when smog came, we didn't run away, today..."
It is a different story for authentic locals to have a deep affection in their hometown. If you want to stay in another place temporarily, you always feel uncomfortable and awkward.
Liu Baofeng smiled wryly and said, "The more concentrated the city, the more dangerous it is now. Look at the metropolis, Hong Kong City, Seoul, New York, Tokyo, etc., all of them have S2 cases. On the contrary, some small cities are safe and sound."
"I heard the news that patients in these places have all been to London. It seems that the root cause of the disaster is in Europe?"
The mother asked in a slight silence.
Liu Baofeng shook his head and said nothing.
Half an hour after breakfast, before Liu Baofeng left the door, Qin Qing came to him and gently and considerately scooped leather shoes for him.
"You have a big belly, don't do these tasks."
Qin Qing smiled and said nothing.
Liu Baofeng turned around and was about to go out, but turned around and said in a stern manner: "Grandma doesn't like nanny, and my mother is not welcomed. Thank you for your hard work, I..."
"Okay, okay, don't let my mother-in-law and mother be here for sensation. I was mentally prepared before marrying you. If you don't know your whole family's background, who dares to get on your pirate ship, go to work quickly."
Liu Baofeng sighed and smiled, shook his head and left the mansion on the lakeshore.
The transportation is convenient near Diaoyutai No. 7 courtyard, especially without any travel hindrance to Liu Baofeng's work. It is close to Zhongguancun in the north and the financial district in the east. Fengbao Group is located nearby. However, Liu Baofeng was going to have a meeting today.
When he was sitting in a car to attend a meeting held by the Ministry of Health, he sat in an Audi car and watched the street view through the window. He found that everyone, regardless of adults and children, wore masks. The city that has always been noisy was left with only the noise from cars. Everyone was stingy and talked to others.
Liu Baofeng withdrew his gaze and leaned back.
This city, which symbolizes the peak of China's power, has experienced countless natural disasters, and is the most thorough, sandstorms, haze, etc. This is a natural disaster, **...
The meeting place was strictly guarded. Liu Baofeng passed the security check and then went to a conference hall. Each seat was separated by a wide distance. He even saw many people who came to attend the meeting wearing masks, for fear that the participants here were carrying viruses.
The meeting held by the Ministry of Health. In addition to the official management of the directly affiliated institutions, the Center for Disease Prevention and Monitoring, the Center for Health Supervision, Academy of Medical Sciences, Beijing Hospital, Union Hospital, Medical Association, etc., attended the meeting, and also included representatives of companies famous in the medical industry in China.
For example, more than ten years ago, Sinovac Biotech Co., Ltd. cooperated with the official to develop the ** vaccine, and they naturally sent representatives to attend the meeting.
The venue was quiet, and the meeting hosted by the official was in such a severe situation. Now is not the time to hold a symposium.
Representatives of each institution and enterprise sat alone, put on headsets, and came forward to preside over the meeting was Minister Gao of the Ministry of Health, who stood on the stage. A world map appeared on the screen behind him.
After a simple opening remark, Minister Gao cuts the subject straight, and he has a microphone at his mouth, so he can pass every sentence through the headset to everyone present without having to speak loudly.
"Who has issued a level 6 security alert. The locations marked on the screen map are areas with large-scale outbreaks of S2 diseases. As you can see, the UK is centered on London and the epidemic is the most severe, while other areas around London. From orange to yellow to light to leopard, this is the sign of the epidemic from heavier to safer."
On the world map, the British region is enlarged, and London is shining with bright red, and the surroundings are dispersed, and the colors are from light to dark, and the last safe area is the pilos.
"Other European countries, Paris in France, Milan in Italy, Munich in Germany, Amsterdam in the Netherlands, etc., were still yellow alarms yesterday, but today it has been raised to orange."
The s2 Buddha swept across Europe, and no country survived, even the smallest country. There were light yellow cursors flashing.
Those are statistical information after the regional hospital reports who, and this does not include areas that are covered up or concealed.
The situation is definitely more serious than what people know.
Minister Gao reduced the map and showed the world map.
"The safest region in the world is Africa, and there are no case reports yet. S2 cases have appeared in Asia, Tokyo, Seoul, Kuala Lumpur and other places where our country is located. In China, 23 people in Hong Kong City were hospitalized and confirmed to be S2 virus patients, and seven people in Shanghai City. This number is yesterday's statistics. As of an hour ago, the number of S2 virus patients in Hong Kong City and Shanghai City has doubled! Gentlemen, due to the strong latent and transmission ability of the S2 virus, the Ministry of Health has assumed that we cannot control the spread of the S2 virus in China. Like Europeans, if we cannot find drugs and prevention and treatment vaccines to cure S2 virus in the short term, we may face a life-and-death situation!"
There was a huge uproar in the venue. Many people seemed to want to communicate with the people around them, but when they turned their heads, they found that everyone was far apart, so they opened their mouths and said nothing except amazement.
Liu Baofeng's face was as deep as water, his eyes were locked on the world map on the big screen.
Life and death?
Until the disease strikes, people will not be able to realize their own fragility.
London, where the s2 virus outbreak started, is now a city that has changed its terrible news. The whole city is in a state of depression and people stay away from home. As a result, all walks of life across the country have almost stagnated in less than a month.
European financial markets have also suffered heavy losses and are almost collapsed, but on the verge of destruction, countless financial speculators still take the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
Hongxin did not take action, so he had to prepare in advance if he wanted to make trouble in the international financial market.
No one expected Europe to be in disaster.
"Who calls on the Global Health Organization to cooperate to win this war with the S2 virus. The most important point of today's meeting is that every representative here is the leader in the domestic medical industry. You have the ability and resources to carry out the research and development of S2 virus therapeutic drugs and vaccine development. The Ministry of Health hopes that you can immediately carry out the S2 virus drug development project. This time the leadership of the project will be held by the Ministry of Health and Sinovac Biotech, with full assistance from the Medical School. If other institutions and enterprises are willing to join this project and jointly develop, they will receive policy support and capital injection from the country."
As soon as Minister Gao finished speaking, an uproar was once again in the venue.
Many representatives looked at the representatives of Sinovac Biotech.
It is probably due to the development of the SA vaccine about a dozen years ago that allowed Sinovac Biotech to directly become the leader of this S2 project.
With national policies and financial support, this is definitely a business that is profitable and profitable!
On the podium, Minister Gao saw a signal that someone was about to speak on the computer screen. He looked up in the northeast and whispered: "Representative of Hongxin Group, please speak if you have anything to do."
Liu Baofeng stroked the simple microphone in front of him and asked bluntly: "Does this project be forced to join?"
The representatives of other companies were stunned, and Minister Gao was caught off guard.
The representatives of the company who are qualified to attend this meeting are undoubtedly of superior strength, and as long as the country participates in this project, there will definitely be a lot of policy allocations.
Minister Gao shook his head and said, "It's not mandatory."
"Thank you, on behalf of Hongxin Group, I will make a statement here. We will conduct ** research, but will not cooperate with any enterprises or institutions."
Liu Baofeng's words made Minister Gao look ugly, while other corporate representatives looked at him with strange expressions.
A pie fell from the sky, don't you?
Chapter completed!
