Chapter 1113 – [China Doomsday Season 2]
China’s current situation, despite its name as a great power, has gone from staggeringly bad in just a few months.
At this point, the biggest hit is coal. When coal imports were suddenly cut off, China suffered a power shortage. This is because electricity, which was supplemented by coal power generation, was cut off.
In addition, because of the Changzhou virus, the situation is bad and the electricity supply is not smooth, so the people’s anger is gradually building up.
If you’re there, that’s fine. Because it’s just inconvenient.
However, such an inconvenient matter is not one. Coal is no longer available, and daily necessities are not being supplied. The price of toilet paper on the road was soaring that you had to pay twice as much as usual.
“No, it was only 10 yuan yesterday?!”
“These days, prices are rising in general. Even so, it’s a trend where you don’t know how much more will come in here. Are you going to buy it or not?”
“……Please give me 10”
The good thing is that they have stockpiled stocks like rice, but they do not starve right away because the self-sufficiency rate is high.
The Chinese government is also running around sweating their feet to solve this situation, but there is no way.
Shouldn’t there be a partner to trade with? As for the counterparty that traded with China, Zion changed the direction of logistics separately. China is a big market, but the global market is even bigger, so if you put your foot forward and put in effort, you can find a similar or better partner.
Besides, China itself is not a very good trading partner. The most important thing in a capitalist society is money, but trust was also important. But how can you do business with a country that often skips technology and collects outrageous taxes from the government?
So far, I have endured it just because of the benefits that come from it, but if there is a substitute, there is no need to choose the picky and unreliable one.
Especially in the tech industry. After working for several years, there were not one or two technologies stolen by China, so Zion took them and withdrew from mainland China altogether.
As inflation rises and more companies withdraw from China, the number of unemployed increases. There were still as many people as there were unemployed or job seekers, but now the number is increasing.
And the fatal blow was the Changzhou virus.
It is trying to publicize it under the name of Genen Virus through media play, but as expected, Shion did not let it go. Media outlets in China were forced to call it the Genen virus under pressure from the party, but most famous media outlets abroad were using it as the Changzhou virus.
Anyway, the Changzhou virus has long since taken over the entire continent of China. It would be nice if it was just that, but the virus spread abroad due to people trying to escape abroad.
“Yes?! Genen virus?! You already got it two weeks ago and got better!?”
“……It looks like you’ve been infected again.”
“Aaaaa…!!!!!”
The scary thing about the Changzhou virus is that antibodies made in the usual way are useless. It wasn’t that Shion needed Horizon’s technology for nothing.
Fortunately, the Changzhou virus has a fatality rate of about 5 percent. Being infected does not mean that you will die right away, and the treatment process is difficult and painful, but it can be cured.
The only problem is that it doesn’t mean anything.
If you get the Changzhou virus once, you will recur. To be precise, you get another mutated virus, and the existing antibodies don’t work for it.
If you repeat it until there is even a 5% chance, it will eventually be 100%. In fact, the only way to solve the Changzhou virus, unless it was a vaccine or something like that, was to kill off a large number of hosts to transmit it, just like the Black Death.
“No!!!! It’s the same virus, but why doesn’t the vaccine work!!!!!”
President Xi Junping shouted, venting his anger at the director of the institute. But in the end, it’s just a petty vent.
While shivering, the research director explained to him why the vaccine was not available.
“It seems that the virus’s toxicity has decreased and the mutation has occurred significantly. That’s why the existing vaccine does not work.”
“Still, I’ve been researching it, so it won’t take too long to make a vaccine!!!!”
China is also not stupid, so it made a vaccine while converting intangible poison into a biological weapon. However, even if you get better, the antibody does not work, so there is no vaccine for re-infection.
Of course, in the days of biological and chemical weapons, existing vaccines would have worked. Basic research was also done, so a new vaccine could be made. It’s just that humans can’t cope with the rapid mutation rate of the Changzhou virus.
“Rye, the rate of mutation is so fast. Dozens of new mutant viruses come out during research. This is a virus that humans cannot deal with. We just have to wait and see until it naturally dies out…….”
“That’s what they say!!!!”
Wow!!!
An ashtray thrown by President Xi Junping hit the head of the institute hard on the shoulder. No bones were broken, but it was strong enough to cause severe bruising for a while.
“Make a vaccine somehow. If you don’t… You’re dead.”
“Yes, yes, I understand”
The head of the research institute knows that the head he is talking about does not mean a simple dismissal. The person who knows the Changzhou virus best won’t just be fired.
Even if you have sworn an oath of secrecy, people’s mouths don’t know. The best way is to write the simplest way out. Originally, the dead do not speak.
But if there’s one thing that President Xi Junping has forgotten in the heat, it’s that people who are cornered are desperate.
As far as I know, I know how ridiculous it is to make a vaccine for this virus as the head of the research institute. It is something that cannot be made with the current Earth’s technology.
The outcome was fixed, so it was one of two things. Either risk your life and run into it… Or run away.
As much as he had a good head, he was in the order of intelligence after leaving China.
* * *
There were not one or two things that the Chinese Communist government had to worry about. Apart from the Changzhou virus and economic problems, two equally important problems remained.
One is the Heavenly Demon occupying Xinjiang and shouting for independence.
The other was the worst thing ever to appear in earnest in Korea.
The Heavenly Horse is still entrenched in Xinjiang and is crushing all Chinese troops invading from outside. If you want to go to war, you need a lot of resources, but since the power over there is only the Heavenly Horse, the consumption of resources is extremely small.
To run a country, even the heavenly horse needs a lot of things, so there are ways to cut off supplies and dry them to death, but Xinjiang is the end of China’s land. If it was in the middle of the inland, it might be possible, but if it is at the end of the land, there is a way.
“Currently, the Xinjiang region is replenishing supplies through exchanges with Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan.”
“Aren’t the countries participating in the Belt and Road Initiative?! Tell them to cut off diplomacy with that puppet country right now!!!”
“That……Was rejected by the other side.”
“What?!”
Most of the countries adjacent to China have participated in China’s Belt and Road Initiative. It is because there is no other way to do it diplomatically when a powerful country like China is right next to us.
But now there is the Heavenly Demon. Xinjiang has become that buffer zone, and there is no need to look at China any longer.
The reason why the Heavenly Horse is staying in Xinjiang is to protect the main base, not because it is afraid of China’s military power. With such a heavenly horse by your side and China farther away, what is the need to be afraid?
In addition, as Zion supported the Heavenly Horse, the economy of neighboring regions and countries was being revitalized. Since the soybeans that fall there are very appetizing from the standpoint of the country, China is cut off.
“And now there are signs of an independence movement on the Tibetan side as well. No, not only in Tibet, but also in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.”
“No, what…”
The Heavenly Demon simply burst the dam. The dam that China was greedy and blocked broke and the water overflowed.
China is a large and populous country. However, it is made up of a large number of peoples, and it was difficult for such a large number of peoples to live peacefully in one country.
At least, it would be better if it was harmonized in a peaceful way and took time to make it one. However, China implemented a more coercive policy than that method.
If you ask why, it is because they are small people who can only see right now. That’s why it was judged that the convenient method with tangible results was better than the time-consuming and cumbersome method.
A small man boat on the subject of ruling a great power. It’s ironic indeed.
“Is that bastard’s Hanon family again……!!!!”
Independent movements in each non-ideal region. Although it was said that he was stimulated by the appearance of the Heavenly Demon, various interests had to be intertwined.
Do you think that such independence movements occur simultaneously at this time? It can only be someone’s artificial act.
And who the cause and the main culprit was, all the Communist Party leaders gathered here knew. The patriarch of the Hanon family, whose husband was nearly killed and her daughter and herself nearly kidnapped. It is Zion.
“Attack Korea by putting diplomatic pressure on it. I don’t know about the family home, but Korea is my husband’s home country, so if you press it, it will be a retaliation and a warning.”
“That……Your Excellency, that is……”
“What else are you doing that for?!”
“…….There is no way to pressure them even if they find fault with them. Even with economic pressure, the volume of goods imported or exported from Korea has recently significantly decreased, and even if they try to pressure them with military force, the Navy is currently pressuring Hong Kong and Taiwan. I was put in to do it.”
Diplomatic faults can be caught. Although the degradation of the image caused by this is a problem that must be endured.
But the means to apply the pressure is a problem. In modern society, the diplomatic alliances that worked best were raising tariffs or holding armed demonstrations. However, both are impossible in present-day China.
To eliminate the weakness, Zion reduced the proportion of goods traded with China among Korea’s exports and imports. Even if tariffs were raised several times in this situation, there would be little economic damage.
Moreover, China was currently in the process of drying up and rising prices. In this situation, it will be more difficult if you hit a ban on imports from Korea.
The navy is essential to apply armed demonstrations and military pressure there. There is a sea between Korea and China.
However, the navy to be used there is out to pressure Hong Kong and Taiwan. It maintains independence right next to a major power, and since it is a truce country, it will not be able to pressure with enough troops.
If you scatter your troops for no reason, you will miss two rabbits.
“Is there any way to put pressure through North Korea?”
“I don’t know if it was before, but now, didn’t the emperor come out on the official line? If the emperor becomes hostile to North Korea, Korea will be unified right away. Besides, economic problems are also due to the Hanon family……”
If there is something that comes out on the official line and is the worst comfortable, there is pressure even if you do nothing as much as that existence.
The Heavenly Demon is a being who fights against great powers alone. And the immortal emperor is at least equal to such a heavenly horse, and raising a dispute against a country with such a master is nothing more than asking for death.
When I was in the shadows, I didn’t have to listen to the government’s orders, and it was a big deal to commit, but it’s easy to assassinate the North Korean leader as long as the government requests it and the other side accepts it.
Social condemnation? Do you think the worst would care? And even if you criticize the government, the public opinion that unification can be done will be greater than that.
On top of that, the numerous funds that go into unification will definitely be financed by the Hanon family…. Rather, only Korea will be unified and Asia’s hegemony will remain.
At that, President Xi Junping was so angry that he spurned his seat, got up, and pointed his finger at the party members in the chairmanship.
“No!!!! This doesn’t work, that doesn’t work either!!!! What can you guys do?! If you can’t, you should make it possible. No!!!!!”
“I’m sorry”
“If we go on like this, there’s nothing left for us!!! Let’s see how hard we work!!!!!!”
It’s not that they don’t work. Each of them was making their own efforts.
It’s only because Shion is taking away the cards they have and putting pressure on them so they can’t resist.
He also prepared for this task, but it is worse than Zion, which he decided and prepared. I thoroughly prepared to dig a trap and fall into it, but it’s strange to lose.
“Um… Then how about pressuring the world by revealing the true identity of the emperor?”
“Hmm, keep talking.”
In the meantime, good but bad stories came out. With nothing to blackmail them, they have found a weakness that seems to work best at this point.
“Hyungje appeared hiding his face on the official ship. And he said that he wanted to hide his identity as well. I heard that his children are not being educated in famous schools for gifted children, but are being raised in ordinary schools.”
“You’re going to threaten me with that privacy?”
“I don’t think that’s a bad opinion.”
It was a hit, but it was also the correct answer.
Right now, the interest that is being poured into the worst as imitation is so great that it is not limited to Korea. A master who listens to the government even a little bit more than the Cheonma, who is treated as a half-terrorist. There are overflowing people who are fascinated by its strength and who want to solve the question.
And if the worst identity is revealed in that situation, various problems will arise and the other side will be in trouble. More than anything, it hinders Eden’s education and growth.
If you think about it, the hand they drew while thinking of it as unimportant was a pretty important hand. In addition to that, someone has a similar opinion.
“Then, let’s reveal the existence of the Hanon family to the world. Anyway, in the current situation, isn’t there anything we can avoid anymore?”
You are already suffering from it. Even if you do more damage here, it doesn’t change.
If that’s the case, let’s reveal the secrets the other person is hiding. They were like that now.
“Okay. Then proceed with the negotiations in secret.”
“Yes, I understand”
That’s how they tried to blackmail, trade or negotiate by holding the private life of the worst family hostage.
It wasn’t until a few days later that I realized that it was a big mistake.
* * *
The chinks sent someone after a long time and I wanted to talk about some bullshit, but it was such a novel bullshit that I was at a loss for words.
No, yes. They say that even an earthworm will wriggle if you step on it in the position of being driven into a predicament, much less in a country like China. Even if I go crazy and try to bite it, I admit it.
Still, it’s ridiculous from the opponent’s point of view. No what? You want to reveal my identity?
And you threaten me with it? It is said to be a deal, but in reality it is a threat.
“The authorities are hoping for a good solution. First of all, please stop the economic sanctions against the authorities…”
Haha”
“……The evil emperor?”
First of all, I came as a diplomat, so I treated him as a guest, wondering what to say. A person from the country who tried to kill me and kidnapped her wife and her daughter, but I brought about a car.
But it’s bullshit that can’t be done.
“It’s over the line…”
My anger surged to the top of my head, and I thought about how I would kill him. But I feel Shion grabbing my sleeve and wake up from my thoughts.
“You, this is your home”
“Oh sorry”
Even if you kill people, you can’t do it in our house. This is our family home. I couldn’t let the blood splatter in this place.
Then I wonder if it’s okay if I don’t splatter blood, but what I’m talking about is not a matter of physical blood, but I don’t want to commit murder in my house. If I was going to kill him, I had to go out and kill him.
“I’ll go out for a while”
“I will prepare dinner”
Zion entrusted the treatment to me. In response, I reached out to the neck of the Chinese diplomat who had come as an ambassador, grabbed him, and lifted him up.
He gasps and gasps as if he is out of breath. Then he screams out loud, but it doesn’t make any sense. Eden is on the second floor with the kids, but it’s completely different, so you won’t even hear it.
“Kuck……!!! Let this go!!! I’m here to propose a mutually beneficial deal!!!”
“Deal. Do you think you bastards can make a deal with me?
Even if you come in with a bow and physically cut the throat of the instigators of this situation and apologize, do you threaten to sell your hat?
Yes, try it But if we seemed like people who would give in to threats, it would be a mistake.
“I’m going to do a human dismantling show for the first time in a while”
Awesome!!!
I dragged the Chinese ambassador and opened a dimensional rift to China.
It’s been a long time since I’ve come to show off my skills.
