Break out of the courtyard

High price!

Urgently needed!

These two factors quickly led well-informed businessmen to seize the pharmaceutical business opportunities on the island.

Cold medicine is not a commodity like clivia that is difficult to mass-produce. In addition, with the temporary tax exemption policy for imported medicines issued by Japan, pharmaceutical companies from all over the world quickly flocked to Japan to meet with those speculative capital and individuals who resell cold medicines.

With the increase in imported cold medicines, the price of cold medicines in Japan has naturally been driven down, and is now much cheaper than before.

But low prices mean low profits or even losses!
Foreign pharmaceutical companies aren't stupid, and local people hoarding cold medicine aren't kind-hearted either.

In order to gain greater profits, these people resorted to extreme measures.

For example, the dosage of medicine brought by foreign pharmaceutical companies, which was originally enough to cure a cold in 3 to 7 days, has been reduced to two weeks to a month.

If a patient changes medication midway through treatment, it's uncertain when they will recover.

As for those who hoard cold medicine, they are not good people either.

Crushing pills, mixing them with flour, and remaking them into tablets—this person still has some principles.

Many people dilute cold medicine powder with dried grass and tree root powder, repackage it, and sell it.

The pharmaceutical market in Japan is supposed to be well-regulated, but unfortunately, it has encountered a group of greedy individuals.

As time went on, some people began to manipulate public opinion online, claiming that this highly contagious flu originated from a biochemical virus leak from Zhang Heping's laboratory.

Zhang Heping initially didn't pay attention to those things because Heping Smart Technology Company had a group of online trolls and was never afraid of online arguments.

However, a Resident Evil movie that shouldn't have been released this year became a weapon for attacks by online trolls.

Biochemical virus!

Umbrella Corporation!
The finger is pointing directly at Zhang Heping, the mastermind behind the Heping Group!

The Resident Evil game was made by Japanese people!
The Resident Evil movie was made by Americans!
It goes without saying what these two scoundrels are up to!

They simply want to use public pressure to force a search of Zhang Heping's biochemical laboratory, thereby finding out the preparation method of the Lifespan 120 drug!
Online opinions only say that the flu was caused by a virus that leaked from Zhang Heping's biochemical laboratory, but deliberately ignore the fact that the virus was stolen by Japanese spies!

Our own online trolls can't reveal this, otherwise it would confirm that the flu was caused by a virus from our own lab.

The details of how the theft happened seem less important now.

In addition, the US-made "Resident Evil" movie had a strong allegorical effect, which greatly challenged the reputation of Zhang Heping and the Heping Group.

So, does Zhang Heping have any countermeasures?

We absolutely must have that!
After Peace Wisdom Technology Company detected this online public opinion risk, Zhang Heping took action!

He first called Hua Lao and asked him to check the "Night Cherry Blossom Operation" plan in his email!
Subsequently, Zhang Bei and Zhang Yi's brain-computer interface research team took a brain-computer interface device and a group of Hong Kong directors and actors to the mainland capital.

After arriving in the capital, they joined the army and a group of mainland directors, actors, and experts to go to Northeast China a few days later!
Then, Zhang Heping stopped asking about the matter and continued to focus on working on his dream library materials!
……

Harbin, Heilongjiang Province: Museum of Evidence of Crimes Committed by Unit 731 of the Japanese Army During the Invasion of China.

"Comrade Zhang Bei, based on the information you provided, we have verified 23 former sites of Unit 731, including its headquarters, crematorium, frostbite laboratory, and virus laboratory." The curator of the exhibition hall walked into the hall and eagerly approached Zhang Bei.

"Director, please wait a moment!" The guard company commander behind Zhang Bei stopped the newcomer. "Comrade Zhang Bei is inspecting this virtual dream system!"

The gray-haired male curator pursed his lips, suppressing his excited and complicated feelings, and looked at the group of men, women, and children wearing black helmets standing in the corner, as well as Zhang Bei, the handsome young man standing at the door of the black iron machine room in the corner.

"No! Ah..." A young woman suddenly retreated in terror, falling off the helmet hanging from her head.

"Ms. Mei, please rest here. You just had a dream, don't panic!" Among the medical staff in white coats waiting nearby, a female nurse quickly stepped forward and helped the Hong Kong actress out of the "Night Cherry Blossom Project" virtual dream experience area.

This virtual dream system was donated to this exhibition hall by Zhang Heping.

Also delivered were oral video files of former members of the Japanese Island germ warfare unit, which Hua Yingxiong Company had previously secretly collected, as well as other related photos, videos, and other items.

The oral accounts and video files of former members of the germ warfare unit were never displayed at the East Tokyo Heroes Exhibition Hall in Japan because a promise was made to keep them confidential for ten years to those who leaked and repented, thereby lowering their psychological defenses.

When Zhang Heping asked Zhang Bei to send these oral history video files back to the mainland, he still insisted on keeping them confidential for ten years. Only after Hua Lao and others agreed did he take them out to corroborate Zhang Heping's newly constructed "Night Cherry Blossom Project" virtual dream.

"Project Night Sakura" was cruel; apart from the evacuated Unit 731 members, not a single person was left alive.

Therefore, few people know about their specific evil deeds and wicked plans!

Zhang Heping demanded adherence to the ten-year confidentiality agreement, firstly to keep his promise, and secondly to obtain testimonies and evidence from other Unit 731 members.

To this end, the Peace Charity Foundation donated money to the museum to help them send people to Japan to find the former members of the germ warfare unit.

"You little devils, fuck..." A tall, burly man from Northeast China suddenly shouted, wildly jumping off the rising black gaming helmet.

"Squad Leader Liu, please rest over here. You just had a dream, don't panic!" The same words were used, only this time it was a different medical worker and a frightened participant.

"Those Japanese devils are worse than animals!" The museum curator said indignantly, looking at the burly Northeastern man whose hands were trembling as he was helped to the side.
"This is my first time experiencing the Night Cherry Blossom Project virtual dream world, and I simply can't believe it's real!"

The guard company commander next to him didn't say anything, but just vigilantly scanned his left and right sides. Even though this was inside the exhibition hall and there were many guards and bodyguards around, he still didn't dare to let his guard down.

Before leaving, he made a solemn pledge to his superior that he would absolutely protect Zhang Bei and his group, as well as this virtual dream equipment!
"I must make more people understand this history and recognize the inhumane atrocities committed by the Japanese devils on the Japanese islands!" The curator was still talking to himself, as if he was making a great decision.

……

Peace College Library, Central, Hong Kong Island.

Sitting in the first-floor rest area, Zhang Heping watched as blond-haired, blue-eyed young men and women lay down in the learning pods. Suddenly, he said to Director Alex beside him, "Do you know why I don't restrict American students from entering the virtual learning dream world?" The director of the American embassy in Hong Kong had been pondering why Zhang Heping had invited him today. Upon hearing Zhang Heping's question, Director Alex thought for a moment and replied, "It's to enhance the friendly relations between our two sides!"

"No!" Zhang Heping said indifferently as he watched the hatches of the learning pods close one by one, "It's because I'm not afraid that you'll learn my technology!"

Curator Alex quickly nodded in agreement, saying, "Mr. Zhang's scientific research abilities are unmatched; we admire him greatly!"

"Tell your chief steward for me a message!" Zhang Heping ignored the flattery and remained indifferent. "Tell him I want all the bacterial research data, including the images, that you obtained from the Japanese islanders!"

The main reason Zhang Heping didn't expose the Japanese devils' Night Sakura Operation plan was the lack of relevant bacterial research data to corroborate it!
The information collected by Hua Yingxiong Company is only the tip of the iceberg of this plan.

The most important bacterial research data were taken by the Americans.

In return, the Americans helped the Japanese cover up their crimes, keeping the world in the dark!
“Yes, I will definitely pass on Mr. Zhang’s words to Mr. Xiao Ke!” Curator Alex felt that this was not a difficult request, so he readily agreed.

Zhang Heping did not use the condition that American students enter the learning dream, because inviting the American curator to come and see those American students entering the learning pods today already conveyed this meaning.

As for whether Curator Alex can grasp this deeper meaning, there's no need to worry.

After Zhang Heping had his bodyguards kick the American teenager Luca out of the talent training camp, the fact that the American embassy in Hong Kong didn't send anyone to plead for him shows that Director Alex has a strong sense of judgment in assessing the situation.

However, the reality was somewhat different from what Zhang Heping had imagined!

After Director Alex reported back to the country that young Luca had been kicked out of the genius training camp, there was absolutely no reaction from the higher-ups.

It wasn't until after the Peace Academy opened and the American students on campus successfully entered the learning pods on the first floor of the library using their student IDs, that Director Alex realized that Luca wasn't that important.

Just as Zhang Heping was seeing off Curator Alex, the American suddenly mentioned the Resident Evil movie.

“Mr. Zhang, Japanese companies have a lot of investments in Hollywood!” Curator Alex said somewhat embarrassedly, “We wanted to stop that movie from being released, but as you know, the United States is a country that values ​​freedom and human rights, and there is very little we can do.”

"It's nothing!" Zhang Heping ignored this nonsense and said nonchalantly, "Heping Group is planning to acquire some American cinemas."

Director Alex assumed the Peace Group intended to block the screening of Resident Evil movies at the cinema level, and smiled as he took his leave.

It's true that they're acquiring US movie theaters, but the number won't be too large, since watching movies online is more convenient.

The reason for acquiring the American cinema was to make it easier for American media to report on the new films invested in by the Peace Group.

As for the American students in the learning pods, it doesn't matter if they're studying finance or want to switch to other technologies; just give them some moral education when you have time.

Zhang Heping clearly overestimated the American's comprehension ability!

More than half a month later, his eldest son Zhang Beidu returned from Northeast China, but there was still no news from the Americans.

Not long after, the American students at the Peace Academy discovered a problem: although they could still experience the virtual dream lecture hall, they no longer had permission to enter the library!
The key point is that other students also have permission to enter!

This anomaly quickly prompted a response from the US embassy in Hong Kong, which hurriedly sent people to communicate, but they didn't even get to see Zhang Heping.

Time flew by and it was late April. After the maintenance team for the virtual dream system in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province, was finalized, Zhang Yi led the other researchers back to the Peace Academy in Shenzhen.

However, after only half a day of rest upon their return, they joined the construction work of the Shenzhen Brain-Computer Intervention Research Center the very next day.

This brain-computer interface research center was established under the leadership of the Shenzhen Municipal Health Bureau, with joint funding and personnel from Shenzhen Hospital and Heping Hospital. Zhang Zhaodi is temporarily serving as the director of the brain-computer interface research center.

The building for the Brain-Computer Intervention Research Center was provided by Shenzhen Hospital, and the related brain-computer interface equipment was developed by Zhang Feng and Zhang Long.

Although their biological brain server was somewhat rudimentary, it was only after being unanimously approved by the neurology staff of Shenzhen Peace Hospital that they were encouraged to use it to establish a brain-computer interface research center.

Zhang Heping did not object to this, because if the biological brain servers that Zhang Feng and Zhang Long had made were not used, they would just be left in a corner wasting nutrient solution, waiting to be used for other experiments one day.

Therefore, using their biological brain server as the first-generation equipment for the brain-computer interface research center can be considered a way to make use of waste.

Anyway, their current treatment needs are not high; it's enough to connect with the subconscious of people in a vegetative state.

Of course, the most important reason is that this is a project led by his older sister, Zhang Zhaodi, and he has to support it!

In addition, news spread that the "Night Cherry Blossom Project" virtual dream equipment had been installed at the Museum of Evidence of Crimes Committed by Unit 731 of the Japanese Army in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province.

Inspired by this, Nanjing authorities began various activities to try and obtain the Nanjing Fall Virtual Dream equipment from Hong Kong for the Memorial Hall of the Victims of the Nanjing Massacre by Japanese Invaders!
For this reason, Hua Lao made a special phone call to Zhang Heping, who then asked someone in Nanjing to contact Zhang Zhaodi.

Hey!
Upon hearing this reply, Hua Lao immediately understood what Zhang Heping wanted to do, but instead of stopping him, he gave him a push.

Not long after, news came that a communication group had been established in the capital, and a representative from Nanjing had come to find Comrade Zhang Zhaodi, who was in Shenzhen.

Then, through Zhang Zhaodi's introduction and with the joint persuasion of Zhang Pandi, Zhang Heping finally agreed to donate the Nanjing Fall Virtual Dream equipment to the Memorial Hall of the Victims of the Nanjing Massacre by Japanese Invaders!
Therefore, Zhang Bei and Zhang Yi's brain-computer interface research team made another trip to Nanjing.

After the "Nanjing Fall" regenerative brain server in the virtual dream tiered classroom of Hong Kong Island Peace College was given away, American students will no longer be able to experience the virtual dream equipment.

Zhang Heping wasn't in a hurry to set up the regenerative brain server in the lecture hall; he wanted to let the Americans wait and see.

However, Zhang Bing, the father, brought Company Commander Zhao and a group of comrades to Hong Kong Island to experience the virtual dream game without giving prior notice, and ended up missing them.

Then, under what seemed like an unintentional inquiry from Company Commander Zhao, Zhang Heping said that he could build a virtual dream game of the "Korean War," but he needed to look up some relevant information to ensure the dream's realism, so he would have to wait.

To Zhang Heping's surprise, the Hong Kong liaison team delivered to him the very next day information about the Korean War that had been prepared in China for a long time, making Zhang Heping feel like he had been tricked.

That wasn't all. The US embassy in Hong Kong also sent people to express their willingness to provide relevant information about the Korean War, hoping to jointly maintain world peace.

Although Zhang Heping felt somewhat uncomfortable when the Americans used the word "peace," he agreed to their small conditions, considering that the Americans wouldn't exchange technology for it or hand over the Japanese's bacterial research data.

Observing from the sidelines the construction process of the "Korean War" virtual dream game... (End of this chapter)
