Chapter 714: I'm Not a Smart Person

Michael Jones stretched out his thumb and said, "Damn! I get depressed when I think about it, but I'm also from the University of Pennsylvania, and I ended up going bankrupt! Damn the 'shale oil revolution'! To put it bluntly, it's cutting leeks and making money! Attracting leeks with hype under the gimmick of 'energy independence'! And I'm the damn leek!"

"It should be said that it is an unlucky leek. Yang Meng picked up his glass and clinked glasses with Michael Jones and said: "You can call me stupid, I never invest, because I know that the real money in the capital market is those who initiate financing and the first to enter the market." The leeks in the first crop are delicious, and the leeks in the back are becoming less and less flavorful. And I think my wisdom is too stupid, not to the point where I can tell at a glance whether I am cutting leeks or being leeks, so I don't enter the capital market. ”

"Are you embarrassed to say that you are stupid?" Ling Feng said angrily: "You have this ability to never forget, why didn't we know it when we were young? ”

Yang Meng shrugged: "I'm relatively low-key." ”

He finished speaking, and there was an extra row of middle fingers in front of him.

Yang Meng smiled: "What's the use of not forgetting? Those who are good at thinking are really smart people, and I am obviously not among them." ”

In fact, Yang Meng once discussed this issue with Zete. Zete has seven degrees, but it doesn't mean that she is a smart person, these seven degrees are all obtained through continuous learning with time.

Just like Zett received his doctorate in orthopaedics from Oxford in 1883, but today, it is certainly behind the times. She can't keep up with new knowledge, the world is progressing, and she still has to keep learning.

In Zete's words: No matter how long a person lives, it is difficult for his consciousness to transcend his time, and it is impossible for him to know more than the best people of this era. Zete first believed in the 'geocentric theory', but it took a long time to know that the 'heliocentric theory' was correct。。。。。。

Yang Meng has a good memory, but it doesn't mean that he is a genius. At this point, his self-perception is still very clear.

"If there is no oil on the planet, then the shale oil technology of the Stars and Stripes will definitely make money, but it is still too early. Qi Kun said.

Yang Meng said: "That's not necessarily, in such a long time, maybe other new energy sources have become oil substitutes." At that time, there may be cheaper and more efficient new energy sources. God knows! That's what smart people do, and it has nothing to do with us mediocre people. ”

Zhou Qiwei on the side said: "A colleague of mine likes to speculate in stocks, and he said that the trend of new energy stocks is still very good. ”

Michael Jones said indignantly: "It must be cutting leeks again!"

Yang Meng said with a smile: "There are practical things here, and there must be leeks cutters, and the Han Kingdom has been pursuing new energy for a long, long time." You know that we have a lack of energy, and at the same time we have a strong sense of national pride, and we have also thought about energy independence. There has even been a farce of 'water turning into oil'. At this point he held out two fingers: "Twice!"

As early as 1984, a guy named Wang Hongcheng claimed that he had invented a 'mother liquor', as long as he followed one

When you add 10,000 to ordinary water, the water becomes a 'water-based fuel' that can be used to start a car at a cost of only 1/1000th of gasoline!

At first, this matter did not attract attention, but in 1992, Wang Hongcheng's 'water to oil' suddenly became a well-known thing in the whole country. The official newspapers, the official radio stations all hyped it up. The whole country is crazy about it, Wang Hongcheng has become the country's fragrant glutton, at that time Wang Hongcheng was blown into the sky, what 'up and down tens of thousands of years of inventions are not as good as Wang Hongcheng's great invention', is the Han 'fifth greatest invention'. The president and secretary of Harbin Institute of Technology, a top university in Han China, wrote to the top leaders twice and insisted that the water turned into oil was credible. Even the State Planning Commission gave him funding support!

Unfortunately, it turned out to be a hoax in the end. In those days, he defrauded 400 million yuan by this means! At that time, this was an astronomical number of astronomical figures!

It turned out that this incident could only be seen as a joke, and as a result, people's memories were short-lived, and thirty years later, the same thing happened again. The person who must be mentioned here is the 'King of Fools' Pang Qingqing.

This Pang young man is a fierce man, he started by producing bicycle tires, and later entered the automobile production industry.

First went to Ningxia and reached an agreement with the local government, declaring that he would invest 26.7 billion yuan to build a local automobile manufacturing project, and in exchange for getting a coal mine with a mining license provided by the local government, the automobile project did not progress, but he made more than one billion yuan by selling coal;

The next year, he went to Ordos again and signed an agreement with the same means to obtain local coal resources, but in the end, the automobile project did not progress, but he sold the coal index and made a profit of 200 million;

A few years later, he went to Jinan and Hangzhou, and received hundreds of millions of subsidies from the local government in the name of building an electric vehicle production base。。。。。。

In fact, he has done this in Lianyungang, Liupanshui, Haining and other places, to put it bluntly, he used the resources of the project enclosure to arbitrage state subsidies and government funds, and finally left a piece of chicken feathers.

His most recent project is the so-called 'water hydrogen fueled vehicle' project. Grasping the subsidies and funds of the spring breeze scam of the state to develop new energy, this project alone got 4 billion yuan from the local government! I don't know how it will end.

The principle of his project is a little more advanced than the 'water to oil' back then, people claim that his 'water hydrogen fuel engine' will react aluminum and water to produce hydrogen, and then the battery uses hydrogen to generate electricity and then generate water, so this fuel should be 'aluminum', using aluminum to produce hydrogen, and then hydrogen becomes water, and water reacts with aluminum to produce hydrogen and then becomes water。。。。。。

Sounds great, but unless he can prove that Robert Meyer's 'conservation of energy theorem' is wrong: all energy is neither created nor disappeared out of thin air, but can only be transferred from one object to another, and the forms of energy are interchangeable.

According to this theory, water is split into oxygen and hydrogen without energy, and the energy is released through combustion and then turned into water, and then back into hydrogen and oxygen。。。。。。 Isn't this a perpetual motion machine? really invented this kind of machine, Robert Meier's coffin board can't be pressed

lived.

But such a simple scam can defraud four billion yuan! There are so many things worth thinking about: In addition to the officials' eagerness for quick success and quick profit in terms of political achievements, there is also the desire of the Han people for 'energy independence' and new energy.

"Why is your country so eager for energy independence but not shale oil like our country?" asked Michael Jones, puzzled: "As far as I know, Han should also be one of the shale oil storage countries, right?"

Yang Meng nodded in confirmation, Michael Jones was right, Han does not produce shale oil does not mean that there is none. The total proven reserves of shale oil today are about 345 billion barrels, of which 75 billion are in Tsarist Russia, 58 billion in Stars and Stripes, and 32 billion in Han China, which is also a large amount. Especially in the storage and distribution of shale gas, the number one country in the world is not the Stars and Stripes and Tsarist Russia, but the Han State!

It is understandable that Tsarist Russia does not engage in shale oil projects, because people have abundant oil reserves in China, and if they can directly exploit oil, they still need shale oil?

Many people say that this is because there is no technology------ what nonsense! Shale oil technology is not as high as imagined, right?

The cost of extracting shale oil is high and the damage to the environment is great, so how can it be cost-effective to buy it instead of producing it?

Of course, there are many people who oppose this view, such as the so-called "brick family", "beast", and "public knowledge", and the facts have once again proved that the idea of the national think tank is beyond the vision of ordinary people, and if you look at the current plight of shale oil companies in Stars and Stripes, you can know that this choice is absolutely correct.

Yang Meng said: "There are a lot of coal resources in Hanguo, enough for our country to use for 1,400 years! But because it is not a clean energy source, it will be eliminated sooner or later." The shale gas reserves of the Han Kingdom are the largest in the world, but the storage places are generally in the mountains, and most of them are buried below 3,000 meters. This makes mining more difficult. Hanguo uses state-owned enterprises to mine independent research and development equipment, so as to avoid the problem of a large number of private enterprises occupying a large amount of debt, and at the same time make a profit. Extracting only shale gas and not shale oil also avoids environmental pollution and the problem of constantly opening new mines to the greatest extent. "Han's energy strategy is to slowly reduce and phase out coal and oil resources, and instead focus on electricity and natural gas. Our Han country has the world's largest electric energy production capacity. ”

After hearing this, Michael Jones said: "Yang, I went to college, and I know that your Han country is indeed the world's largest country in terms of electricity production, but the major provinces of your country are all in the west, and your major provinces are in the east. The distance between the two places is more than 1,000 kilometers or even as high as 3,000 kilometers! Such a long distance cannot be transported by either a high-voltage power grid or an ultra-high-voltage power grid! More than 500 kilometers of electricity is consumed on the road than it is transported! No matter how much electric energy you produce, if you can't transport it, there is no way! How can you use a large amount of electric energy for new energy?"

Yang Meng grinned: "Oh, yes, you actually understand the problem of power loss? You are right, we in the Han Kingdom have been troubled by this matter a few years ago, but let me ask you again: Have you ever heard of 'UHV'?"
