Chapter 621: Adjustment (Page 1/1)
After Old Theo bowed to leave, Chen Dahe opened the envelope and saw the contents inside.
Both expected and unexpected.
This letter was indeed sent by Liu Jianjian, but its content was not from his handwriting, but by someone else, except for his secret note in the corner of the letter, indicating that there was no problem with the source, and there was no information about them from beginning to end, no wonder he dared to send it so rashly, and he was not afraid of being intercepted.
This is more of a research report than a letter related to drought in Africa.
After last year's extreme heat in Africa, which has not been seen in decades, this year's prolonged periods of high temperatures and little rain have finally attracted some attention from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, and a team of agronomists has been sent to Africa to investigate the food situation here.
After more than a month of field investigations, they finally made an investigation and evaluation report.
According to the report, the team of agronomists believes that by next spring at the latest, there will be a large-scale food crisis in 22 countries in Africa, and at least 4 million tons of emergency food will need to be prepared to prevent some of the nearly 150 million people living in these countries from starving to death!
Seeing these figures, Chen Dahe's heart was suddenly shocked: Is there a mistake? What is the concept of 150 million people in 22 countries affected by the disaster? Is the survey data of this group of agronomists accurate or not, and if it is really so serious, why has the United Nations not paid attention to it at all?
Picking up the report again and reading it carefully, I have to say that the data noted in the report are very detailed, and these 22 countries are spread over most of Africa, from Angola to the Cape Verde Islands, from Central Africa to the Gambia, and even Mozambique, Eswatini, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe.
Chen Dahe has been to most of the above-mentioned countries, although it is only a superficial view, but also because of the good natural environment in some of these places, the grain bases set up there, if the data is not falsified, there is no doubt that this food crisis will have a great impact on his grain base plan, which is even more serious than originally expected!
Chen Dahe couldn't help frowning, although as early as more than two months ago, Emma and they warned about it, but even they didn't expect this disaster to be so serious, and even he instructed them to harvest the crops planted in the first half of the year, but in such an environment, even if the first batch of crops in the grain base is kept, what about the future?
His fingertips clenched the paper, his gaze following the inertia, as if trying to see the report as a flower.
In the end, the flower does not appear, but on the reverse side of the last page of the report, a passage that was previously overlooked is found.
Although this passage is seamlessly connected with the previous report, it seems to state the background of the writing of the report and ask the superiors to pay attention to it, but Chen Dahe always feels a little awkward in his heart, and seems to be suspected of adding to the snake, those experts are all veterans of writing reports, even if there are appeals, there will be corresponding channels for expression, so this kind of mistake should not be made.
After a while, he realized that this passage should have been added by Liu Jianjian, intending to tell him the origin of this report and the current progress.
If he is not mistaken, although the report has been submitted to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, it certainly has not attracted enough attention, and it may even be put on the shelf, after all, the big people are busy, and who has time to pay attention to these marginal countries.
Perhaps, the most important people should be this agronomist who has personally investigated the field, if they are willing to continue to strive for it, with the slow efficiency of the United Nations, they can probably release it to the outside world at the beginning of winter, and with their proficiency, there will definitely be concrete solutions, and it will be up to them to see if they can catch the outbreak of this crisis.
After reading the report again, Chen Dahe folded the paper and put it back in the envelope, patting his forehead with his hand, what should I do?
Frankly speaking, in comparison, the money earned from farming and selling grain is far less than the income of a random business under the Third International Bank, and even the mineral trade in Africa is stronger than this, but when the business reaches a certain scale, it cannot simply look at the pros and cons from a certain project, and the money earned from selling grain is not good, but when the grain industry has a certain right to speak, its influence is not comparable to that of a few Third International banks。
What's more, Dong Jianlei, who is far away in Ukraine, uses this as a stepping stone to constantly open up all links up and down in Eastern Europe, and when the great changes come, not to mention the benefits in other aspects, the wealth that can be collected alone will be an astronomical amount, so in his industrial layout, this grain base is a very important link.
However, if the grain growers encounter a drought, although they can maintain their output with the help of science and technology, even if there is a bumper harvest, they are surrounded by hundreds of millions of victims, and if they cannot handle it well, I am afraid that something unbearable will happen!
If you ignore it, your conscience will not be able to get over it.
Chen Dahe pounded his head, the plan he made two months ago is definitely not suitable now, so how should it be revised? What should happen to this grain base, which has invested billions of dollars and has just started?
After nearly two hours of careful consideration, Chen Dahe decided that the grain planting plan for the second half of the year would remain unchanged, but a great adjustment would be made in the direction of shipments.
In fact, more than 60 percent of the goods collected this summer were parked on the land of Africa, some of which were stored in Libya, and these would be sent to the Soviet Union according to Dong Jianlei's schedule, while the other part was about 30 percent of the total output, which was kept in Egypt and Greece respectively。
It just so happened that Chen Dahe decided to inform him as soon as possible, so as to extend this time appropriately and buy some time for the African side.
If the goods that have not yet been sent out can withstand the demand of Dong Jianlei in the second half of the year, then the output of the grain base at the end of the year can be kept in Africa, and the production capacity of the base will certainly be able to greatly alleviate the food crisis.
"However, giving away for nothing is not my style," looking at the rising moon outside the window, Chen Dahe muttered to himself, "I have to find a way to dig a few more pieces of meat from Lao Fei!"
