Chapter 476: Big News Brewing

Although he knew that they would call, Steve still sighed when he received the call from Director He.

Alas, the happy time is so short, and there are not many days left to be alone with the giant beast Serpan.

Steve was in a low mood, and his voice was weak when he answered the phone:

"It's Director He... uh... work? Yes, there is something to report."

Steve said reluctantly, not caring about the emotions that Director He was quietly exploding under his calmness.

After working together for so many years, Steve knew what Old He said and for what purpose, and he could understand, but not much.

It was not the first time he was scolded.

Touching a piece of animal bone that had just been cleaned up with care, Steve sighed again and again.

He had come to this rainforest for investigation many times before, and there were other investigation teams. It can be said that there are no less than a hundred scientific researchers coming here every year.

But it happened that only Feng Yi, who came here for the first time to investigate, found the remains of the giant beast Serpan.

What kind of luck is this!

Envy!

Steve sighed: "It's true, you plant flowers with care but they don't grow, but you plant willows by accident...willows become a shelter forest!"

Director He: "...It seems to be a big deal."

Director He was unwilling to waste time listening to the other party's nagging. Some senior experts are thick-skinned and stubborn when facing things they are interested in -

They are as steady as old dogs in the blanks of the rules;

They jump back and forth between the bottom line of the leader and the high pressure;

Once they face things they really care about, they instantly enter the irrational mode of

"I don't listen, I don't understand, I'm not here".

It's difficult to persuade, difficult to manage, and difficult to adjust.

Director He seriously suspects that Feng Yi's current erratic behavior is caused by Steve, the senior!

"Where is Feng Yi?" Director He asked.

"I went to work and was not around." Steve said.

After they took the photos and made the records, Feng Yi released the "control group".

"What are you two doing over there? Confess and you'll be treated leniently!" Director He asked seriously.

"I'll be honest, of course I'll be honest." Steve said in a light voice.

"Two minutes, talk!" Director He raised his wrist to look at his watch.

Steve carefully placed the bones on the table, then said calmly, "It's just that this matter... um... is a little complicated."

"One minute and thirty seconds." Director He didn't listen to his nonsense.

Seeing that Old He was clearly upset, Steve still didn't change, and continued to speak slowly: "Alas, no matter how much I say about this matter, you will still be confused. To be honest, I was also shocked this time, and I haven't calmed down yet..."

"Sixty seconds."

"Just..." blah blah blah.

"Fifteen seconds!"

Director He lost his patience and was about to explode.

Steve: "Ah, Old He, the file has been sent to you. Look at the picture and see the truth. It's clear."

Director He hung up the phone.

Steve calmly put the satellite phone next to him and continued to do his work.

Five minutes later, another call came in.

Director He asked sternly, "Are these materials true?!"

There was some uncontrollable trembling in his stern and excited voice.

Steve: "Hmm."

Director He took a deep breath: "You two stay there and be quiet!"

Just now, Steve had sent Director He the data, pictures and videos of the work records of the past few days.

In just five minutes, with Director He's ability, he was able to confirm the authenticity of the data. Those data are not easy to make up, and the pictures and videos sent over have also been identified by technicians, so the possibility of falsification is not high.

However, there have been cases of people falsifying funds in the past, and they have successfully deceived institutions and the media, not once or twice.

In just five minutes, it is still impossible to fully verify, but Director He knows in his heart that this time it is very likely to be true!

It is really too shocking and beyond conventional cognition.

If there is no such information, few experts will believe it!

Director He looked at the information on the screen again.

The bones are so well preserved, which means that the time interval will not be too long, but in all the real survey records before, there is no such large boa in hundreds of years.

No wonder Steve put down everything at hand and ran over in a hurry. Other experts would do the same!

Feng Yi and Steve, although they are not very receptive to conventional management, their professionalism is beyond doubt.

Generally speaking, they will not be deceived by fraud, and they will not commit fraud.

They just made a big thing quietly.

Director He tapped his forehead with his fingers. His heart rate is still high and he is in a difficult mood.

However, he is mentally strong enough to manage so many people in this position. He was still excited, but soon considered the changes brought about by this incident from many aspects.

Now the news cannot be released to the outside world. We still have to go to the scene to confirm it in person, and all parties must also operate.

In the tropical rainforest on the other side of the sea.

After Feng Yi released the control group, he returned to the tent and was told about the call from Director He.

As expected, he was not surprised. Everything continued according to the original plan.

The next day, Director He arrived with a larger and more professional team, and did not alarm the local brother units.

Although they belong to the same organization, the joint guarantee bureaus in different regions still have internal competition. Director He must represent his side first and hold the priority in his hands.

The newly arrived experts couldn't wait to get into the tent and saw the skeleton there, their eyes glued to it.

"This, this, this... It's all real!"

"From the skeleton, it's indeed an anaconda!"

"It's incredible!"

The small tent was crowded in an instant. Experts took instruments to confirm the authenticity, collect data, and argue with each other because of some speculations.

Steve continued to linger, sticking to the best position, unwilling to leave.

Feng Yi walked out of the tent and gave the space to the extremely enthusiastic group of people.

Director He quickly arranged and made a few more calls. He came to see Feng Yi and asked some questions in detail.

Yesterday, after calling Steve, Director He also contacted Feng Yi to understand the process of the matter. It's just that this trip was rushed, and there were some details he needed to ask in person.

Director He already knew that Feng Yi discovered the remains of the giant beast Serpan by smell.

"Amazing talent!"

Director He patted Feng Yi on the shoulder: "Thank you for your hard work this time, and I will also need your help in the next work."

"It's my job." Feng Yi smiled.

"We have also carefully considered your proposal yesterday. We will discuss it with local brother units, and the restoration of the remains will also proceed quickly."

As the discoverer and the person with the greatest credit, Feng Yi has enough say in dealing with the giant beast Serpan.

According to the regulations of the Joint Protection Bureau, precious objects such as specimens and fossils discovered locally should be kept in the management of local institutions as much as possible. If the local conditions for preservation are not met, they can choose a nearby or other suitable location.

There is a tropical biological research center built by the Joint Protection Bureau on the edge of this rainforest. The remains of the giant beast Serpan must be kept there after they are discovered.

This is also what Feng Yi agrees with.

Since the tribe has kept Serpan in the rainforest and the cemetery is also built here, the remains should not be too far away.

The Tropical Research Center of the Joint Protection Bureau is just right. It is close, safe enough, and the maintenance is also attentive.

Director He has no objection to this. If Feng Yi wants to fight for it, they can push it and try to see if the remains can be moved to another place. But since Feng Yi agrees with this, they also follow the regulations and can use this matter to gain more resources.

At the team and unit level, according to the priority, our side definitely has an advantage. Director He is now striving for a greater advantage. As long as Feng Yi does not change jobs, this advantage can be maintained.

"I will assign a few more people to you, and you will continue to be responsible for the search for the remains of the giant beast Serpan. The restoration work will be done by Steve and the professional team, and I will handle other chores." Director He paused and continued, "It cannot be made public to the media now, and it needs to be postponed for a few more days."

This is to remind Feng Yi not to reveal any news in the circle of friends or social platforms, and wait until the work deployment is completed.

Feng Yi nodded: "Understood."

He didn't have the urgency to show off. As long as he got the right to speak and had enough say on some important issues, he would achieve his goal.

Next, everyone performed their duties. After deploying the preliminary work, Director He contacted the local brother units.

In a few days, this rainforest area became more lively.

The chief and the villagers were more happy than troubled. Although they felt it was too noisy, there were more staff coming here, and they earned more.

It's just that the food Feng Yi bought before has already cleared a batch of their stocks. Now all the villagers' stocks have been drained, and they are stepping up to make food every day to provide it to the staff here.

Although a batch of materials is transported from outside the rainforest to the research team's work area every two days, the villagers can provide fresh food. Under the condition of choice, the staff will of course prefer fresh food.

The remains of the giant beast Serpan were also transported to the Tropical Research Center in batches, where there are better conditions for restoration and more conducive to storage.

A few days later, with the increase in manpower and the continuation of work, the originally sparse and incomplete skeletons became fuller.

During the period, in order to shoot more materials, a control group was also needed, but it was not necessary to catch them in the rainforest.

The Tropical Research Center has anacondas raised. The largest individual is half a meter larger than the one caught by Feng Yi, and its body is also thicker and more visually impactful!

The discovery of the giant beast Serpan alarmed the Joint Security Bureau and senior personnel around the world.

The original tomb site of the giant beast Serpan in the rainforest, as well as the area where the remains may be buried, were quickly protected.

Regardless of whether there are still remains to be dug here, it is impossible for outsiders to approach in the next few years. A more professional team will be formed soon to conduct a detailed study of this area and further analyze the remains here.

The Joint Security Bureau responsible for the area specially sent senior personnel to talk with the chief.

The vertebra in the chief's hand was contributed voluntarily. At the same time, the chief also said: Someone from the neighboring tribe also dug up the bones of the giant beast Serpan!

So, the chief of the neighboring tribe was also invited to talk, and the conversation lasted a little longer. In short, whether it was voluntary or there was another transaction, the bone from the neighboring tribe was also handed over.

This incident was a sensation in some circles, and the bigwigs in the reptile world have come to the research center here from all over the world. But due to strict regulations, it has not been spread to the outside world.

It is still quiet to the outside world. Only after all the preparations are completed, the news will be released uniformly.

In order to maintain a rigorous attitude towards journalism, the official media is working overtime to handle the heavy workload.

Big news that will shock the crawler world is still brewing.

As a key figure in this incident, Feng Yi was invited to interviews by many parties after completing the first phase of the search mission. He refused those who could be refused, and cooperated with the work within the scope of the plan if he could not refuse.

He spent the rest of the time rushing to finish the work report. As a key figure in this incident, he had to write a lot of work reports, and he had to do them in batches, so he couldn't finish them all at once.

It was busy, fulfilling and brain-burning.
