【新唐人2013年05月25日訊】美國硅谷一位發明家，研發出了一種能把燃煤中的廢氣變成工業原料的專利，中共提出條件與他合作，包括提供6千萬研發經費、和大學實驗室、科學家以及工程師團隊，可是他拒絕了。是甚麼原因讓這位發明家，在自己的發明能夠轉化成經濟利益，並造福社會，又能名利雙收的情況下，拒絕了這巨大的誘惑呢？我們來看看。
據總部設在美國的英文《大紀元時報》報導，硅谷發明家傑佛瑞‧範‧密朵博克（Jeffrey Van Middlebrook）經過再三思考，決定放棄和中共的合作。密朵博克說，中共正在殺害人民獲取器官牟利，用他們的錢就是拿沾血的錢，他不能拿這種錢。
大陸網絡作家荊楚：「這樣的發明家真正是有良心的，我為他喝采，中共想在科技領域有所影響力，不惜納稅人的血汗去搞這方面的資助，這些資助是骯髒的、是帶血的，得到這個科學家的拒絕，這種拒絕在人類科學史上，是很有骨氣的一件事情。」
2006年，密朵博克發明瞭一種氣體分離技術，可以通過多級分離，將燃燒後存在廢氣中的二氧化碳、和二氧化硫、硫化氫等氣體分別捕獲，並轉變成液體。這些液體可以用作工業原料。
在美國政府和企業不願出錢贊助這個項目的時候，2011年，密朵博克與中共當局接觸，並先後兩次與中共當局和科學家代表團洽談。
去年年初，中共當局提出可以提供6千萬研發經費，以及大學實驗室、科學家和工程師團隊，將他的發明應用到中國的工業項目中去。去年5月，一切談判進行順利後，密朵博克準備9月成行。但當他得知中共活摘國內的法輪功學員器官牟利後，決定拒絕和中共合作。
安徽市民朱先生：「這個發明家做的這個事情是很有正義感的，中共的錢是老百姓的錢，是活摘法輪功學員的錢，他發明的東西，中共拿去了，是不會為百姓，是為中共這個利益集團服務的，和中國百姓沒有甚麼關係。」
密朵博克也曾經掙扎過，他向《大紀元》表示，作為一名發明家，6千萬的研發資金太有誘惑力了，但在中國所發生的令人髮指的政府惡行，讓他寢食難安。
旅美中國問題研究專家張健：「在他身上我們看到了不屈不饒的精神，對人類普世價值的尊重，當一個科學家如果能接受中共的巨大利益，自己名利雙收的情況下，拒絕沾滿中國人民的鮮血的錢——收買自己作為發明家的良心，這樣的人實在難得。」
旅美的中國問題研究專家張健還表示，任何一個和中共政府合作的專家和政府，都是在往中國人民傷口上撒鹽，都是中共殘害中國民眾的幫兇。
張健：「這樣一個科學家，一方面拋棄了這樣一個名利雙收的渠道，另一方面用這種方式和中共進行切割，實際上他是用另一種更大的方式，為中國人民造福。」
密朵博克說，即使他的發明和技術不能實現，他可以堂堂正正的看著鏡子裡的自己，說：「我沒從一個屠殺牠人民的政府，拿一分沾血的錢。」
中國歷史學家李元華：「包括中共活摘器官裝聾作啞，實際上是一個人在是與非面前，你去選擇正義，還是去趨炎附勢，或者為了眼前的一些小利，而放棄起碼的良知。」
今年3月7號，德國《時代週刊》在顯著版面上大篇幅報導，揭露有關中共活體摘取法輪功學員器官，賣給西方患者牟利的事實。3月21號，澳洲聯邦參議院一致通過，支持聯合國和歐理會反對活體摘取器官的議案。
3月28號，有「世界移植之都」之稱的美國匹茲堡，舉行「器官移植在中國被濫用」的專題研討會。移植界權威克里斯託弗．休格斯（Christopher Hughes）表示，全球移植界都應關注活摘器官問題，並對中共施壓。

Chinese Cheer a US Inventor’s Refusal of the CCP’s Offer
A U.S. inventor from Silicon Valley has developed a patent
which can turn exhaust gas during coal burning into
industrial raw materials.
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) made an offer for
his cooperation, including 60 million US dollars in funding,
university laboratories, scientists and an engineering team,
but he refused.
What caused this inventor to refuse this huge temptation
when his invention could be made into economic benefits
for the society, bringing him both fame and fortune?
Let’s take a look.
The English department of Epoch Times says
Silicon Valley inventor Jeffrey Van Middlebrook
chose to give up cooperation with the CCP
after thinking it over thoroughly.
Middlebrook says the CCP kills people for their organs and
sells them, so he wouldn’t take their blood-stained money.
Chinese Internet writer Jing Chu: “This inventor truly
has a good conscience and I applaud him.
The CCP would like to have an influence in the area of science,
and doesn’t mind using taxpayers’ hard-earned money,
which is dirty and bloody, to do it with.
This scientist refused it.
This kind of refusal in the history of human science
is an act of integrity."
In 2006, Middlebrook invented a gas separation technology,
which can capture carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide,
sulfur dioxide and other gases through multi-stage separation,
and convert them into liquid.
These liquids can then be used as industrial raw materials.
When the U.S. government and private enterprises
were unwilling to pay for sponsorship of this project,
Middlebrook met with the CCP.
He met twice with CCP delegates and their team of scientists.
In early 2013, the CCP authorities offered 60 million dollars
funding, university laboratories, scientists and engineers to
apply his invention to China’s industrial projects.
In May 2012, all negotiations went smoothly,
and Middlebrook would make his trip in September.
But when he learned that the CCP is harvesting Falun Gong
practitioners’ organs for profit, he refused further cooperation with the CCP.
Mr. Zhu, citizen of China’s Anhui province:
“This inventor acted with justice.
The CCP’s money is money taken from the Chinese people,
it’s from harvesting living Falun Gong practitioners’ organs.
If the CCP got his invention, it wouldn’t serve the people,
but the CCP itself, which has nothing to do with the people.”
Middlebrook also struggled, and he told The Epoch Times that
as an inventor, $60 million in funding was very tempting,
but the heinous evil happening in China made him uneasy.
Zhang Jian, a US based expert on China issues:
“We see the indomitable spirit and respect for
the universal values of humankind.
As a scientist, if he accepted the huge profits from the CCP,
he may gain both fame and fortune, but he refused money
stained with the blood of the Chinese people,
and he didn’t sell out his conscience.
Such a person is very rare."
Zhang Jian also said that experts and governments who
work with the Chinese regime,
are doubly harming the Chinese people, and
are it’s accomplices in persecuting China’s people.
Zhang Jian: “For such a scientist, on the one hand, he gave up
such a channel to fame and fortune; on the other hand,
he cut ties to the CCP in this way.
He is actually benefiting the Chinese people in a greater way."
Middlebrook said that even if his invention and technology
can’t be achieved, he can look at himself in the mirror and say,
“I didn’t take blood money from a government
that is murdering its people.”
Chinese historian Li Yuanhua: “Whether one ignores
the CCP’s harvesting organs from living people or not,
this is a matter of judging what is right or wrong,
of choosing justice or chasing power;
giving up one’s conscience for a small immediate benefit.”
On March 7, 2013, Time Magazine in Germany
prominently reported
the CCP’s organ harvesting from living Falun Gong
practitioners and selling them to western patients for profit.
On March 21, the Australian Federal Senate unanimously
supported the motion of the United Nations
and the European Council against live organ harvesting.
On March 28, a seminar on “organ transplant abuse in China”
was held in Pittsburgh, the world capital of transplantation.
Transplant guru Christopher Hughes said that
the global community should be concerned about the issue
of live organ harvesting, and put pressure on the CCP.
