Rebirth 1958: My Home is in Nanluoguxiang

In a top-secret meeting room in Yanjing, all the senior officials in Beijing were looking at the picture on the big screen with serious expressions.

The picture was taken from a bird's-eye view and was taken by China's most advanced, and also the world's most advanced, optical low-orbit satellite.

Everyone present saw the tremendous changes that took place in Moscow during that day and night.

Ever since the zombie biting incident at Central Station, the situation has been changing rapidly at a speed beyond everyone's common sense.

Although the Russian military and police responded promptly, they misjudged the severity of the zombie bite incident from the very beginning.

The zombies' speed and strength exceeded that of ordinary humans. The Russian military and police, who had never dealt with zombies before, were defeated in the first encounter.

In just one night, the entire Moscow fell, with an area with a radius of about ten kilometers centered on the central station.

The death toll is estimated to be over two million, and the property losses are incalculable.

All of this was seen by China's top leaders.

The conference room was filled with smoke, and everyone's ashtray was full of cigarette butts.

pat!

Everyone looked towards the door of the conference room. Chang Zhengyang, dressed in a white coat, pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing this, Mr. Deng hurriedly asked, "Have you figured out the principle of the virus? How long will it take for the vaccine to come out?"

Chang Zhengyang walked to the big screen and said, "Nuwa, open the information about the Mars virus."

"Okay, Director!"

Everyone looked at the big screen, and the picture on it had turned into the analysis report on the Mars virus that Chang Zhengyang had just mentioned.

Mr. Deng asked doubtfully, "Mars virus?"

Yinghuo is actually Mars. In the eyes of ancient Chinese sages, Yinghuo is an ominous star, which often symbolizes war, famine and other ominous things.

Now Chang Zhengyang named the virus "Yinghuo", and everyone felt that the name was appropriate based on what they saw that night.

But when everyone saw the analysis in the report, they suddenly understood that there were other reasons why Chang Zhengyang called this virus the Yinghuo virus.

"According to my analysis of the samples and the reliable information I received from the Americans, this virus is not from Earth, but from Mars."

"Mars?"

"Yes, it's the sample brought back by the American Mars probe. These guys found an ancient fungus in the Martian rocks. It's a highly active life form that is more adaptable to extreme environments than tardigrades. This is also the main reason why the Mars virus infects so quickly."

Chang Zhengyang knew that most of the people here, or almost all the leaders, were unaware of the existence of tardigrades, so he ordered the intelligent computer Nuwa to upload the information about tardigrades.

Tardigrades can survive for 272 minutes in an environment of minus 151 degrees Celsius, which is close to absolute zero, or at extreme temperatures of 2 degrees Celsius. They can survive for several days in an environment of minus 200 degrees Celsius and for 20 years in an environment of minus 30 degrees Celsius. They can withstand water pressure that is 6 times that of the Mariana Trench. Even with the help of underwater breathing apparatus, humans can only dive to the extreme record of 332 meters.

Tardigrades can even survive the vacuum and radiation of space for 10 days.

After reading the information about tardigrades and then about the Mars virus, everyone fell silent. Everyone felt that this world was no longer the world they knew before.

When we used millet and rifles to fight the Japanese in the past, at least the Japanese were still within everyone's cognition. But now, what are these tardigrades, Mars viruses, and so on?

The ancient gods a few years ago have already subverted everyone’s worldview. We have finally adapted to it, and now there is the Mars virus.

Will we have to create an alien in the future?

Some older leaders began to feel that they could no longer bear this change and started to think about retirement.

If this continues, my heart won’t be able to take it!

Mr. Deng pinched his brows and said helplessly: "Let's get to the point. How long will it take to develop a vaccine?"

Chang Zhengyang yawned and said, "This Yinghuo virus is indeed a bit difficult to deal with, but don't worry, I have already developed a vaccine, and the effect is quite good. I have asked the pharmaceutical factory to work overtime to produce it."

Mr. Deng was cheered up and said with a happy expression: "Good, great, as long as there is a vaccine, this thing called the Mars virus will not be a big problem."

An expression of relief appeared on everyone's face. As for whether the vaccine had gone through phase III clinical trials, it no longer mattered.

It is better to have something than nothing. Everyone has witnessed how fast the Mars virus mutates after infection. No one wants to use themselves, their family and friends to test the effects of the Mars virus.

"Should we provide vaccines to the Russian bears and other countries?"

This is the senior leader in charge of foreign affairs. As soon as he said this, others began to whisper to each other.

Old Master Deng frowned, pondered for a moment, and then said, "You can give it to me. Just buy it with money. We are not America. We are responsible for this world. Zhengyang, did you get reliable information that America is the mastermind behind this incident?"

Chang Zhengyang nodded and said, "That's right!"

Mr. Deng waved his hand and said, "Then send all this information to the Russian bear, as well as the leaders of other countries, including the United States."

Chang Zhengyang thought for a moment and said, "Old man, the information will be delivered soon, but I think it can be postponed for a while, including the delivery of vaccines."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Deng was surprised and said, "Tell me your reasons!"

Chang Zhengyang hesitated for a moment and said, "Nuwa, put up the photo of Yuri."

"Okay, Director!"

Everyone looked at the big screen. A bald man with his upper body naked was standing there. He looked up at the sky, as if looking at something.

Chang Zhengyang walked to the big screen, raised his hand and knocked on the bald guy on the big screen, and said in a strange tone: "This man, after being infected by the Mars virus, has evolved. He is now a stock god!"

"what?"

"Don't be too surprised. Although the probability is small, as small as one in millions or one in billions, the heart is life, and life always has miracles. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Mr. Deng had a headache and said, "Okay, stop sighing and get to the point. What's so special about this person?"

"It's nothing. This guy has absolute control over the lives infected with the Yinghuo virus."

When the old man's expression changed, he remembered the sudden collective retreat of the zombies on the big screen just now, and he immediately had a guess in his mind.

"Could it be..."
