Winter of Plum Blossom

Chen Yue didn't answer this question right away. He stood up and looked around the venue, and also looked at the guests one by one. He seemed to stay for an extra moment with an elderly gentleman next to Mei Zhe.

He took a deep breath, as if trying to calm down some emotions in his chest, and then spoke slowly, with a low voice.

"Yes, I do have ulterior motives."

Chen Yue's words shocked everyone.

Mei Zhe continued to frown and look at Chen Yue.

Chen Yue smiled, a little sadly.

"Many years ago, I fell in love with someone. His differentiation came at the most inopportune moment, and then..."

Chen Yue didn't continue talking.

After clearing up his mood, his tone became calm again.

"I did a survey, and the thing most Omegas worried about most was when their differentiation would come, and the dementia and heat that came along with the first differentiation."

A series of data was projected on the big screen.

"In fact, there are not many split accidents, and the domestic statistics are less than 5%. And the irreversible consequences are less than 1%."

"But...that's when a person's free will completely succumbed to instinct. Alpha, Beta, Omega, among the three major genders, even Alpha's passive estrus can be controlled by reason, while only Omega will encounter This is the complete suppression of reason by instinct."

"Although the actual probability of irreversible consequences is less than 1%, for this less than 1% of Omega, either the entrustment is not human, or lifelong regret, and some people's life will come to an abrupt end here. .”

"Therefore, the same phenomenon exists in the polls of all countries in the world. Before the split, 90% of the people clearly expressed that they hoped not to become an Omega, but for those who discovered that they were an Omega early, 82.3% of them said that Their biggest anxiety in adolescence is sudden differentiation."

The crowd below began to whisper, and everyone looked at each other blankly, not knowing what Chen Yue wanted to say.

Chen Yue turned a deaf ear and continued talking on his own.

"Thanks to scholars like Dr. Mei, and to the entire scientific community for their commitment to the application of pheromone technology. After differentiation, Omega can either use temporary inhibitors or customize inhibitors based on its own pheromones for long-term suppression. Differentiation, the only thing that can be used, is still to carry temporary inhibitors with you, and customize long-acting inhibitors because pheromones cannot be predicted. From 16 to 28 years old, carry it at any time. No one knows where, which factor, or who , what kind of mood swings, let the first differentiation suddenly."

The voices of the audience began to decrease, and everyone showed a thoughtful look.

"A database of gene-predicted pheromones makes long-acting inhibitors of primary differentiation possible."

"One or two samples is meaningless. We need a large database. A pheromone database linked to the gene bank. Provide one more possible choice for all Omega."

Chen Yue's eyes are very bright.

Mei Zhe looked at him thoughtfully, this was a Chen Yue he had never seen before.

"I don't want the tragedy of the one I love to happen to someone else."

"I don't want any other Alphas to be like me. Since that day, I have been suffocated by missing day and night."

"Why should we succumb to our instincts and fate? My lover has a will and determination not weaker than mine. Although I am an Alpha, I still want to ask why such an Omega is destined to die due to instinct at a certain period of time. Attached to Alpha, instead of giving them the power of free choice?"

"Maybe, let's think a little further, is it possible for a long-acting inhibitor before differentiation to give those undifferentiated Omegas a new option? Let them choose to use their Beta identity to obtain what they deserve in human society." achievements, and the respect they deserve?"

"I know there are many high-achieving Omegas in this world, but can we really deny it? Omega wants to get the same respected status, the price is far greater than other genders, the instinct to fight, Far more than any other gender."

"Why can't free will be given a little more chance?"

The audience was in an uproar.

Chen Yue remained silent, looked at everyone with a smile, and only spoke solemnly after the uproar subsided.

What lit up with his words was the dazzling picture on the big screen behind him.

"Chen Dong of the Yang'an Group allowed me to announce in his name here."

"Yang'an Group has invested 20 billion yuan and will officially start building the Huaguo Pheromone Large Database Ecological Chain starting today. Nineteen bioscience-related groups and nearly ten pheromone medical and research institutions have signed letters of intent."

"We expect that this will be a measure that truly benefits mankind and society."

Chen Yue smiled, "Of course, it is also an ecological chain that truly creates huge commercial value."

Mei Zhe saw the names of many familiar institutions in the subtitles on the big screen, including the research institute led by his father, and the two research institutes he participated in in the United States and the United Kingdom.

He squinted his eyes to look at the high-spirited Alpha in front of the podium, and there was no trace of the decadence in the bar six days ago on that person.

Which one is the real Chen Yue?

Or, is Chen Yue already so complicated?

He didn't believe that Chen Yue did so many things after asking himself six days ago.

This is a business that has been negotiated long ago, and a plan that has been laid out long ago.

Then what did he ask for himself at that time?

Mei Zhe does not believe that he has any special charm.

With a smile on his face, he looked at Chen Yue lovingly like the director Chen of the Yang'an Group looked at his son beside him.

My heart is as clear as ice and snow.

special pheromones.

All research institutes are researching pheromones, but only the project I am in is the world's highest authority on special pheromones.

Chen Yue did not attend the reception after the meeting, Mei Zhe was invited by him to meet in the lobby of the hotel last time.

Chen Yue didn't say anything about this proposal.Mei Zhe didn't want to mention it either.

Alpha's father only gave him a special communicator before he came here, but his experience in the special project team for the past seven years convinced him that the organization his father was in was extremely powerful, and he was not afraid of some underground forces and extremist organizations at all.

What's more, this is the country of Hua.

China is known as the safest country in the world.

He just didn't want to be curious about Chen Yue anymore.

The closer you get, the more trembling you feel. It seems that something will happen if you get closer, and your own world will be overturned.

And this person is too deep.

It was only at the summit that he discovered that Chen Yue was actually the second son of the founder of the Yangan Group, but he was not interested in the family business at all. Instead, he regarded his independent partner in a consulting company as his real job.

Maybe this statement is not correct. The man in front of him, who is wearing an outdoor outfit and carrying a huge hiking bag, may regard his hiking as a real job.

"Hey, let me say, are you really not going hiking with us?"

Mei Zhe shook his head lightly.

Chen Yue laughed, "You seem to have some opinion on me?"

Mei Zhe didn't know why, anyway, he just didn't want to laugh.

He reached out his hand to shake hands with Chen Yue, "Be safe and have a safe journey."

Chen Yue didn't answer, he smiled and stepped forward to hug him, and hugged him hard, "Why are you holding hands, man? I owe you two favors, and I will contact you when I return to the capital."

Mei Zhe returned to the capital the next day.

Chen Yue's remarks at the pheromone summit, and Yang'an Group's official press release on its official website later caused an uproar in the entire industry.

The Omegas were not as excited as expected, and the Alphas were speaking insincere lies in politically correct affirmative action, and then using the name of risk to imply a little bit of real thinking.

A proposal that is said to be a commercial project was first arguing with hypocrisy in terms of ethics.

In early September, when the sky was high and the clouds were clear, Mei Zhe was leaning on a stone chair next to the Yinding Bridge, resting his long legs on the railing, biting a straw and flipping through comments on foreign professional forums on his mobile phone.

Sure enough, it felt the same as him.

The last two ideas Chen Yue threw out at the summit quickly spread throughout the international pheromone circle.Many people debate feasibility and ethical correctness.

Who stipulated that Omega must be attached to Alpha?

Whose soul is not a free soul?Why is Omega bound by instinct?Why did the Creator set up such a shackle for Omega?

However, if God's arrangement has its own deep meaning, then when human beings take the initiative to break the shackles, is it ushering in an era of freedom, or opening a magic box of disaster?

Instinct, nature, ethics, will, freedom, love.

Which is right?Which is more important?

Father Omega called yesterday, and even he was intrigued by the latter idea.

And Alpha father remained silent.

Mei Zhe heard that the two fathers were tortured when they were young, and they loved each other so much that they could finally stay together for a lifetime.

To some extent, God is fair, Alpha is endowed with natural leadership, strong ambition, and strong body, while Omega has a more delicate heart, more careful thinking and more rigorous logic.In modern society, there are many Alphas in the political, military and business circles, while there are many Omegas in the academic circles.

But 30 or [-] years ago, all those who stood in front of others were Alphas.

His Omega father, Lu Chengfeng, was born in a famous family and was extremely talented, but he was identified early on as the object of political marriage.

He didn't love that Alpha, but in the marriage 30 years ago, few people paid attention to Omega's love and wishes.He could go to medical school only on the condition of agreeing to that political marriage.

It was Lu Chengfeng's luck and disaster to meet Meiling.

In this world, especially in the world 30 years ago, like and love are never the qualifications to be together.

Mei Ling escaped death to prove his qualifications, but he was still rejected.

No matter in which era, the world is realistic, the strong choose and the weak are chosen.

The Omega, which was engraved with attachment in the instinct by pheromones, has always been regarded as weak, and has not even proved its qualifications.

As for the Omega passed down from generation to generation, how many Omega are willing to attach themselves, and no longer think that they still have the possibility of becoming a strong person and the freedom of choice?

The most terrible confinement in this world is not that there is no choice, but that when there is a choice to choose, you never know, don't think, don't believe that you have the right to choose.

How much imprisonment is set by Omega itself?

Mei Zhe folded his arms on his chest, staring at the golden sunlight flickering and jumping with the waves on the lake.

If he could choose back then, wouldn't his father also choose to become a Beta?

If so, what was he thinking when he met Alpha's father?

Do you choose to wear a mask and stick to your career, or give up your gender mask and follow your lover far away?

Freedom and love, can we only choose one or the other?

In the capital city in the golden September wind, smelling the fragrance of residual lotus, Mei Zhe, a Beta, chewed repeatedly on Omega’s free will in partner choice and life choice. For the first time in his life, he wondered what it would be like to choose to spend his life with others .
