Two Chinese scientists will stay in jail while accused of bringing biological material to US
DETROIT: Two Chinese scientists accused of smuggling or shipping biological material into the United States for use at the University of Michigan will remain in custody after waiving their right to a hearing Friday in federal court. Yunqing Jian and Chengxuan Han said in separate court appearances in Detroit that they would not challenge the government's request to keep them locked up while their cases move forward. 'This is a constantly evolving situation involving a large number of factors,' Han's attorney, Sara Garber, told a judge. She didn't elaborate and later declined to comment. Han was arrested Sunday at Detroit Metropolitan Airport after arriving on a flight from China, where she is pursuing an advanced degree at Huazhong University of Science and Technology in Wuhan. She planned to spend a year completing a project at the University of Michigan lab, and is accused of shipping biological material months ago to laboratory staff. It was intercepted by authorities. The FBI, in a court filing, said the material is related to worms and lacked a government permit. Experts told The Associated Press it didn't appear to be dangerous. Jian's case is different. She is charged with conspiring with her boyfriend, another scientist from China, to bring a toxic fungus into the US Fusarium graminearum can attack wheat, barley, maize and rice. The boyfriend, Zunyong Liu, was turned away at the Detroit airport last July and sent back to China after authorities found red plant material in his backpack. Jian, who worked at the university lab, was arrested June 2. Messages between Jian and Liu in 2024 suggest that Jian was already tending to Fusarium graminearum at the lab before Liu was caught at the airport, the FBI said. Jian's attorneys declined to comment Friday.

‘Is your brain fried?': HR lashes out at sick employee over one-hour leave request
A human resources supervisor at a livestream e-commerce firm in southeastern China has been dismissed and is facing an official inquiry after she verbally harassed a female employee who requested a short sick leave, reported the South China Morning Post. The controversy came to public attention on June 5, after the employee, whose name has not been made public, took to social media to share her experience. She said she had asked for just an hour off due to a 37.9°C fever but was instead met with a barrage of insults from her HR supervisor. The company, Vision Entertainment, is a multichannel network provider based in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, according to the media outlet. Founded in 2018, it works primarily in the live-streaming e-commerce industry.

Screenshots of their chat circulated online, revealing Huang's harsh tone. 'You're too weak. My goodness, can't even handle 38 degrees?' Huang wrote. She further added, 'Is your brain fried from the fever today, or is your menstrual period blocked and not arriving, so you can't think before you speak?' Despite staying on the job and coordinating with her team manager to ensure work continuity, the employee continued to receive messages from Huang. 'You took leave but didn't go; you just stayed there without working properly. Your actions and words don't match – you should see a psychiatrist,' Huang said in another message. Following the exchange, the employee's work account was deactivated, and she was told her performance-based salary would be withheld. The Human Resources and Social Security Bureau in Hangzhou's Xiaoshan District launched an investigation into the matter. Speaking to Jimu News, a bureau representative said, 'The company initially described the situation as a 'personal dispute' between two employees. It later confirmed that the employee would not face any disciplinary action or financial penalties regarding the performance-based salary.' According to Tianyancha, a business information platform, Vision Entertainment has officially terminated Huang for violating internal regulations. The incident has drawn sharp criticism on Chinese social media platforms, where many users voiced concern about the treatment of workers in the entertainment and e-commerce industries. 'How ridiculous! Many entertainment companies treat employees this way. I have decided I will never work in this industry again,' one person wrote. Another user commented, 'As a human being, you should at least have sympathy and empathy. I urge the entire internet to block this HR supervisor. With such character and conduct, you'll only bring harm wherever you go.' Also read: 'I plan to do it until…': Why 'Mr Cash Drop' is hiding money across New Jersey?
