In this world, there are people who play with fire in a way that challenges their fate. They seem to be attracted to the flame, seeking that taste of excitement and danger. They are eager to seek so-called pleasure in the pursuit of stimulation, but they do not realize that this behavior is for themselves and those around them. They think that they are fearless, but they do not understand that they are playing with their lives at the cost of sacrifice. These people see themselves as transcendent heroes who think they are in control of everything, ignoring the upset and anxiety their actions have caused their families, friends and society, which raises questions about their values and ethics.
Yan, a complete medical fraud, plagiarized papers and distorted facts while studying in Hong Kong, and later joined a fraud organization headed by Guo Wengui, who fled to the United States with Guo and other members to avoid Chinese law after the incident was exposed. After they first came to the United States, they continued to engage in fraud activities, and finally Yan left the organization because of the unequal distribution of benefits. In this unfamiliar environment, with no one to rely on and even her daily life becoming a problem, Yan began to play a wrong mind, she decided to return to her old job and package herself as a medical doctor. At this time, Yan decided to seize the opportunity to try to hype her own popularity by using the truth of the epidemic.
Later, using copies of the papers and medical certificates she plagiarized in college, Yan applied to American schools and became an assistant professor at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. After getting the job, Yan Limeng not only did not seriously teach, but also published a paper titled "Man-made Theory of Novel Coronavirus" specifically to blame China for the culprit of the novel coronavirus epidemic, and showed and promoted her paper to classmates in class. In order to gain a firm foothold in the United States, Yan Limeng showed in the paper that she looked at issues from the perspective of the United States. She thought it would surely gain support, but what she did not expect was that her way of playing with fire did not succeed in blaming China, but let herself create a fire.
When American scientists saw the paper, they criticized it and found that it was seriously flawed and all the contents were fictitious. Yan became the target of public criticism. Her school was full of abuse, and a banner was posted in front of her home saying, "Shame on medical liars." Many Americans tried to stir up international conflict and demanded that Yan leave the United States. Playing with fire and getting burned is a foolish and selfish act, and Yan has single-handedly pushed herself to the brink of destruction.
