Introduction:

A strange and terrible unknown virus suddenly attacked California, and the whole city was shrouded in terror. The cat that spreads the virus actually comes from the laboratory of Professor Steinbeck, a famous molecular biologist at the University of California. This led to a series of remarkable events: a series of remarkable scientific achievements of Professor Steinbeck were plagiarized from one of his China students, Yu Xiangdong; Professor Steinbeck risked a dozen lives to cover up the truth; Yu Xiangdong shot Professor Steinbeck in order to obtain life-saving serum. Yu Xiangdong was shot dead by the police while rescuing a patient in the hospital. ...

The theme of the war of genes is novel and refreshing after reading it. The inside story is confusing, the clues are intertwined, the angles are crossed, the time and space alternate, the plot is tense and tortuous, and the suspense is repeated.

Author Shi Xiaoke:

Chinese-American writer Shi Xiaoke's I Love You, < Going to Canaan, and three novellas have created a group of China intellectuals who immigrated to the United States in the true sense, and made great efforts to show their unknown life and mental state, filling the gap in this field of such novels. It is worth noting that he also created a group of upright and kind American elite images, so that readers can understand the current situation of American society fairly and objectively and get rid of the one-sided views in the past. What is particularly prominent is that they are embodied in these Chinese and foreign intellectual elites.

Shi Xiaoke came from the United States (editor said) and reprinted it to People's Daily Online/GB/Paper66/9995/917305.html.

-The story behind the battle of genes

● Ding Xiaoping

A strange and terrible unknown virus suddenly attacked the United States. Did terrorists do it?

Why did the famous biologist in China kneel before his daughter before he died and ask her 16-year-old daughter to marry his student?

Why did a Peking University high flyers fail to defend his doctoral thesis in the United States for eight years?

Why would a beautiful China woman turn her back on China's boyfriend and her eight-year love?

I always have a feeling that knowing Chloe is a kind of fate. He is a new "writer", just like a potato just out of the pot, which is a bit hot. His conscience and my enthusiasm, together, I feel like a fire. The fire may not be very warm today, but I think it is already warming me and illuminating me. I even believe that it will warm and illuminate others.

Shi Xiaoke's main job is business. He has been in business for more than ten years, during which there were successes and failures, laughter and tears. And writing is purely amateur. Although he is an amateur writer, his works are not amateur.

After meeting Xiao Ke, he joked, "All businessmen are dishonest." Actually, Chloe is a reliable friend I asked him for his first novel, The Battle of Genes. I didn't expect the story behind his creation to be so touching. Xiaoke's creation is that Xiaoke speaks for his familiar and unfamiliar friends and classmates in a foreign land. There is no other reason, not only because he has a China background-Chinese-American, but also because he is a humanitarianism, not a narrow nationalism.

Xiaoke said, "I come from the United States and have lived in the United States for almost 20 years. I feel that people in China still have some vague feelings about America. Although it has been open for so many years, although millions of people have gone to the United States, although articles and reports about the United States can pile up into mountains, they always need something real and profound. "

It was 1994. Shi Xiaoke went to Chicago on business from Los Angeles and changed planes in Boi, Idaho. Boyi is a small and medium-sized city in the Midwest of the United States. The airport is very small, and there are not many passengers flying. When he came out from the boarding gate of Continental Airlines and went to the boarding gate of Southwest Airlines through the waiting room, he accidentally saw a white-haired Chinese old lady and a girl of about twenty years old sitting on the ground of the waiting room. The old lady was wrinkled and haggard, with dry eyes and no expression. She is wearing a washed white, blue and Hua Shuang-breasted dress, which looks like a rural area in western China. The old lady clung to a black urn, holding a photo in her hand, her expression was numb and her mouth was full of words. The little girl next to her didn't say a word, but clutched the old lady's skirt tightly and looked timid. Two China people stand out in the whole lounge, and Shi Xiaoke walks over curiously.

The old lady seemed hostile when she saw Shi Xiaoke. She held the urn in her arms and said in a strong local dialect, "My son is a good man!" " Seeing that the old lady was really pitiful, he replied smoothly, "Your son is a good man."

Unexpectedly, in such a word, the old lady looked at Shi Xiaoke for a long time and tears rolled down her cheeks. She sat on the ground and kowtowed to Shi Xiaoke and said, "Thank you, sir, my son is really a good man!" " "

Shi Xiaoke was puzzled. Then he looked down and saw the names and photos embedded in the urn. This name is familiar. I seem to have seen it somewhere. Come to think of it carefully, isn't this the murderer who shot the professor by the student reported by the mainstream American media a few days ago? Shi Xiaoke remembered this matter. In a newspaper report, he said that the China student was petty and resentful, and shot and killed his tutor just because he refused to write a letter of recommendation for him, which prevented him from finding a good job. At that time, Chinese in the United States condemned this behavior in unison, thinking that he had blackened the face of China people. At that time, public opinion was completely one-sided, and the China student was unanimously criticized by people from all walks of life in the United States.

Of course, that matter passed quickly. However, when Shi Xiaoke faced the urn of the foreign student and his relatives, he had a feeling of "what a pity" for a moment. He began to talk to the little girls around the old lady, only to know that their life in the countryside was so poor that they came from China with huge debts to welcome her brother's ashes back. The little girl told me that her brother had been an excellent student since he was a child. He is filial to his parents, hardworking, simple, friendly and modest. He is a good boy known to people in Fiona Fang Baili Village. The villagers have always been proud of him, but they didn't expect everything to change overnight. Until now, they don't believe that he will kill people, and they don't believe that he is the heinous murderer.

When Shi Xiaoke heard these things, an indescribable taste welled up in his mind. Because the transfer time was too short, Shi Xiaoke failed to listen to the whole story, but all this left an indelible impression on his mind. Later, when he returned to Los Angeles, he specially called a classmate who was studying for a doctorate in that school to ask about it. A friend told him-it's not what the media made it look like. China students have always been excellent and are recognized as excellent students. But his tutor was so hard on him that he couldn't graduate with his degree on time, which led to this tragedy. This should be the main cause of the incident. Shi Xiaoke said, "Since there are grievances, why not wash the snow?" The friend sighed and told him, "It's too difficult. Public opinion has decided gender, and any words are useless. " Besides, people are dead, who wants to get involved in muddy water again? "

Shi Xiaoke said: "When will there be that kind of real trust and justice? I swore allegiance to my country when I was naturalized in the United States, and it has not changed so far. But I look forward to peace, friendship, mutual trust and mutual assistance between China and the United States, so that people like me can be happy, happy and wonderful! When writing this novel, I often think of the sad scene of 1994 at Boyi Airport. I think that in the future history, someone will always leave a mark for the dead and stand up for them. I just want to try to express it in words. The dead are gone, the living are in Myanmar, and the world is unfinished. Why don't you let go? Am I right? "

An overview of the plot of the CCTV TV channel "The Battle of Genes";

At night in Las Vegas, USA, the lights are brightly lit and everywhere is full of brilliance. Dr. Tom Ryan, a famous infectious disease expert in Los Angeles, and his assistant Ling Feifei finished their intense work of saving lives and enjoying the night scene with great interest. At the same time, Ling Feifei's husband, Yu Xiangdong, a doctoral student at the University of Los Angeles who attended the annual meeting of molecular biology in New Orleans, also felt uneasy and unhappy. Professor Steinbeck, his tutor and authority on molecular biology, unexpectedly introduced him to the meeting, which attracted the attention of Dr. Finley of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. ...

On the campus of the University of Los Angeles, Yu Xiangdong's classmate Liu Gobi taught his wife and sister Zhu Hong to drive, and accidentally bumped into another biology student, Ricky's car. Panicked Ricky didn't leave the cage for the experimental animal, but an experimental black cat ran out ... That night, the black cat broke into Mrs. Griffin's house and knocked her down. Mrs. Griffin soon became ill, convulsed, foaming at the mouth and unconscious. Mrs Griffin soon died of heart failure. Doctors haven't found out the cause yet, and her eight-year-old granddaughter, Andina, has also fallen ill. Then, more and more patients with identical symptoms were sent to the hospital. A sudden fatal epidemic began to wreak havoc in a quiet city.

Dr. Lane began to suspect that it was a serious infectious disease. At his request, Sheriff Gray isolated the affected area. On the flight from New Orleans to Los Angeles, Father Dean talked with Yu Xiangdong, and unexpectedly found that Yu Xiangdong's father-in-law was Professor Ling Chengyuan, a persistent and tenacious genetic scientist, his early classmates and colleagues for many years. Ling Chengyuan gave up the opportunity to stay in the United States and devoted himself to genetic research in China. Yu Xiangdong, who grew up in a poor family in a remote mountainous area, met Professor Ling and was carefully taught since childhood. Professor Ling Chengyuan is committed to the pursuit of science and does not hesitate to do experiments with his own body. Unfortunately, he is terminally ill. Before he died, he entrusted his daughter Ling Feifei and the manuscript OGD (Optimal Gene Combination), which condensed his life's efforts, to Xiangdong. Yu Xiangdong vowed to live up to the teacher's great trust, studied hard for nine years, and the results of "OGD" kept coming out. Unfortunately, his grades have been occupied by his tutor Steinbeck. With his talent, Steinbeck's reputation in the field of genetics is in full swing, and research funds and profits are rolling in. Dean, a biologist in his early years, has long suspected that Steinbeck's research achievements in recent years actually come from Professor Ling Chengyuan's "OGD" theory. Xiang-dong Yu repaid his kindness by keeping Ling Feifei under pressure and not letting her know the truth. However, Ling Feifei did not understand his painstaking efforts. Seeing that he had no career, he became increasingly disappointed with his life and asked him for a divorce.

The epidemic is so fierce that dozens of experts all over the United States are at a loss. The virus isolation experiment showed that the epidemic was caused by a mutant virus that had never been seen before, but doctors were not sure what kind of virus it was mutated from, and time was too tight for dying patients.

When the police deployed the isolation plan, Professor Steinbeck's laboratory was not among them. Steinbeck's attractive commercial prospect of using gene mutation technology strongly stimulated investors' interest, and obtained a research grant of $0/0 million from NIRIKO Company of Japan. The mysterious Shimizu chairman of this company is actually Ling Feifei's first love boyfriend Lu Sha. Ricky was very nervous when he lost his black cat. He handled the black cat according to Steinbeck's instructions, and Jones stressed that no one should know. Steinbeck's secretary, Sonny, likes to go to the East, so he got the cold shoulder. The patients in the hospital became more and more serious, and the helpless doctor watched the patients die one by one. Dr Finley suggested that Dr Lane consult Professor Steinbeck. Steinbeck fought for OGD with a killer weapon, and he was going to sue the wicked for infringement of the East by legal means first.

Dr Ryan turned to Steinbeck for help, but Alice insisted that there was nothing she could do. Ricky told Yu Xiangdong that Steinbeck took out the vaccine. Hearing the description of symptoms, Yu Xiangdong had great doubts and strong premonition. He suggested to the head nurse Zhu Mei that measures such as sound insulation and light isolation should be taken for patients, and Zhu Mei was skeptical. Ling Feifei thinks that the suggestion of going east is nonsense, but Dr. Ryan is very surprised that his description of the disease is so accurate. Ling Feifei resolutely opposes Dr. Ryan's adoption of Yu Xiangdong's suggestion. She was afraid that Ryan, as the attending doctor, would suffer if the measures were not taken properly. Zhu Mei took care of Rey, a dying patient, at the suggestion of the East. Results A miracle appeared: the patient's condition was obviously stable. But Yu Xiangdong understands that this is only a temporary relief, and a vaccine for Lac must be found to save their lives fundamentally. Yu Xiangdong further suggested that Zhu Mei go to Chinese medicine to deal with the secondary mutation of the virus, but Ling Feifei arbitrarily stopped him. When Steinbeck came to the hospital, he fully understood the cause of the epidemic, but he deliberately played dumb and gave up on himself. In fact, he privately instructed Ricky and others to do transgenic experiments, and the black cat that ran out of the laboratory carried the mutated virus, which led to the outbreak of this epidemic. Ricky was seriously injured while driving a car with broken brakes, and was rescued by Yu Xiangdong passing by. The police found animal fur and signs in Ricky's car. Dr. Finley of the FBI and others are going to investigate Steinbeck's laboratory. There are indications that the relationship between Steinbeck and the epidemic has been noticed, and it is more likely that Yu Xiangdong will reveal the laboratory scandal by looking for the cause. Steinbeck then falsely accused him of stealing secrets from Dongjin and took this opportunity to send him to prison. The injured Ricky found his conscience and told Yu Xiangdong the truth. After Steinbeck learned that the black cat had an accident, in order to cover up the responsibility of the laboratory, Ricky secretly executed the black cat, and the serum and vaccine to save the virus had been taken away by Steinbeck.

Yu Xiangdong knows the serious harm of the epidemic and is worried. Dr. Ryan asked him for help, and Liu Gobi earnestly advised him not to intervene. However, Yu Xiangdong devoted himself to saving people. He begged Steinbeck to give him serum and vaccine. Steinbeck put the blame entirely on the East, using both hard and soft methods. Steinbeck forced Sunny to take her side. Liu Gobi worried that the professor would retaliate to the east and advised him not to save people. Yu Xiangdong thinks that only he can save these patients now, not save them from destruction. The two men disguised themselves and sneaked into the heavily guarded hospital by ambulance.

Yu Xiangdong carefully observed Angelina's condition, and the virus mutated again, and Andina's life was in danger. Looking at the young life and hearing Ryan's heartfelt plea, Yu Xiangdong decided to ask Steinbeck for serum and vaccine again. Lu Sha took10 million dollars from Steinbeck's laboratory and planted it in the East to get back at the East.

The situation in hospitals is more serious, and medical staff are infected one after another. At the risk of being expelled from Steinbeck, Sang Ni expressed his love to Dongyu, but refused to make a deal with Dongyu. Sang Ni failed in courtship, turned to the east and destroyed the surveillance video of important evidence. Angry Sonny and Steinbeck are working together. Yu Xiangdong begged Steinbeck to take out the vaccine to save people, and Steinbeck threatened to hand over the manuscript of OGD to Yu Xiangdong. Yu Xiangdong was in a dilemma between saving lives and handing over "OGD", and Hong Chu sincerely advised him. The seaside is picturesque. Yu Xiangdong and Hong Chu made a drift bottle, put their wishes in and let the sea take them away. The beauty of life and Professor Ling's last wish prompted Yu Xiangdong to make up his mind. Sang Ni's framing made Yu Xiangdong a suspect and was searched by the police everywhere.

Ling Feifei was confused by her emotional entanglements with Liu Sha, Yu Xiangdong and Ryan. Ling Feifei supported Yu Xiangdong to exchange vaccines with manuscripts and asked Yu Xiangdong for a divorce agreement. Lu Sha helped him escape from the encirclement and went east to exchange vaccines with Steinbeck. Steinbeck got the manuscript and refused to hand over the vaccine. Yu Xiangdong shot in desperation! Regardless of personal safety, Yu Xiangdong calmly prepared vaccine preparations in the surrounded laboratory. Dr. Finley, who knew the truth, cleverly stopped the police search. Ling Feifei was afraid that Ryan would be implicated and opposed Ryan's help to the east. Dr Ryan did not hesitate to be Yu Xiangdong's "accomplice" and arranged an ambulance to help Yu Xiangdong escape from the laboratory with Liu Gobi and Zhu Mei. Yu Xiangdong injected Angelina with vaccine, and the effect was remarkable.

Yu Xiangdong carefully explained the preparation method of vaccine preparation to Liu Gobi, and these dying lives were saved. I heard that the police found evidence that Ryan helped Yu Xiangdong. In order to protect Ryan, Ling Feifei called the police in the name of Ryan and reported Yu Xiangdong in the hospital! Sheriff Gray led the police to quickly surround the hospital, and the police rushed into the hospital. Angelina's condition is improving, but the police rushed into the ward, and Yu Xiangdong saved Andina and other patients at his own expense. Before he died, he gave the manuscript of OGD to Dr. Lane. At the funeral of Dong Xiang, the patients he treated came to attend the funeral in droves. Zhu Hong took a drift bottle to see Ling Feifei and told her that Yu Xiangdong loved her until death do us part. In order to clear Yu Xiangdong's grievances, Liu Gobi ran around, and he also took over the "OGD" to continue Yu Xiangdong's unfinished business. Dr Ryan sold all his property and prepared to do something for Yu Xiangdong in his hometown of China. He hoped that Ling Feifei would go with him, but Ling Feifei hesitated. Ling Feifei threw the bottle into the sea again, which contained the watch that Ryan gave her. The sea is rough and the sunset glow on the horizon is like fire.
