 ===Feng's wake-up call===
-: Note of the author: potential "political discussions" in book Caged Birds were totally not my intention. It simply happens that the background story and character interactions might automatically create controversial situations. I do not wish to make any political statement. I consider myself 100% neutral.
-----
 The wake-up call is also known as the multi-pandemics-hypothesis.
-Story fragment:
+See [[Oni2:Caged_Birds#Green_Village|Green Village]]: the "holographic recording"
-Feng: "I want you to think about a simple fact. That is: an old killer virus can be reconstructed with a budget of less than 100.000 credits. You all know from the latest pandemic how much damage a single, "mediocre" virus can cause. Now imagine that there is a religious terror group wanting to kill all mankind in a act of extended suicide. Or one psychic unstable millionaire. If he is clever he could easily let create 10 killer viruses. Let's say for effectiveness that all these 10 viruses are transmitted differently: by air and water, by animals and insects, and targeting different organs. -- We are so fucking NOT prepared for this. -- A single person could kickstart a multi-pandemic situation eventually killing all mankind. And with technological progress this gets easier day by day. And what is even worse this is just one of many scenarios for this century. -- Ladies and Gentlemen we are at the edge of extinction. We must act today to see a tomorrow. We must put international fights to a stop and unite the world for this greater cause."
-<!--[Add holograms of GV board of directors.]-->
-([...] This is also the founding moment of the Tianxia Institute, a Chinese think tank to prevent global killer events.)
-Blake: "Feng had put the whole communist party into panic when he hold that speech."
-Maria: "Ladies and Gentlemen?"
-Blake: "Heh. You have a good ear. I'm not supposed to tell you this - but since you already made a correct guess - this recording was altered to have a better impact on English-speaking newbies. But the embedded message remains totally the same: that Green Villages is made for humankind's survival. You as absolute expert in your field have been chosen to ensure success."
-Blake continued touring with Maria through Green Village therefor her indoctrination.
-[...]
-GV HR: "Why did you tell her?"
-Blake: "I had to control her suspicion to act out in our favor. As long as she has total trust for me there is no problem."
