Chapter 77 Integration of New Eastern Europe
Randall's high-speed rail program is an important part of the Illuminati's plan to change the world. From Lee Jay to Tony to Rodgers, they all know how important this is.
And Dr. Banner is equally aware of the importance of this. The lack of connectivity in this world has led to the isolation of each region.
Li Jie also recruited Dr. Banner through the high-level railway project as a selling point. Although he was not yet considered whether or not to be recruited into the Illuminati, Dr. Banner was already an indispensable force for the high-level rail project.
Dr. Banner could not resist the temptation to build a high-speed railroad to transform the earth into a true global village and to connect and change the world.
So after joining the Randall Group, Dr. Banner began to improve the entire railway system and carry out various plans almost without sleep.
In fact, Daniel's father, Mr. Randall Sr. (aka Iron Fist of the previous generation), had done quite a bit of homework when building the original high-speed rail plan.
Many of Randall's rearmaments and experiments have been successful, including the laying of new tracks and the towing of the nose and body of the locomotive, which are close to the finished prototypes. And the whole set of planned drawings and experimental data.
The elder Randall's biggest constraint back then came from energy. Conventional petroleum energy can produce so much energy that it is not enough to drive a high-speed railway system to operate.
So at that time, the elder Randall once proposed such an idea. That is, to lay ultra-high voltage transmission lines along the railway, and use the ultra-high voltage electric energy to transport electrical energy for the railway system. In this way, the normal operation of the entire railway system can be guaranteed.
But there are a lot of risks associated with this design. Not to mention the damage caused by natural disasters to UHV lines, once the power source is damaged, then the railway system along the line will also be damaged, and the chain reaction may form a terrible railway traffic accident.
Safety aside, just talking about UHV transmission and transformation technology, this technology has only been mastered by four countries in the world until today.
This technical threshold alone restricts the global rollout of high-level railway systems. After all, it is impossible for an average country to have the ability to configure the power system along the railway.
Even countries that have mastered the power transmission system are reluctant to accept such a plan, because the UHV transmission and transformation project is too expensive, and if a country has 200,000 kilometers of high-speed railway system to support, the money needed for this power system alone can put many countries into fiscal deficits.
So the old Randall's project was good, but it was not practical at all.
Until Tony's new energy is opened, the special Ark battery can meet the energy supply of the entire high-speed railway.
After the Horizon Foundation invested in Daniel and allowed him to regain control of the Randall Group, Tony set out to work on this special train energy. At present, it has entered the stage of small-scale mass production.
As for the Randall Group, because the old Randall has done a lot of work in those years, the whole plan tends to be perfected. By the time Dr. Banner joined the project, all he needed was to fill in the gaps. And some minor problems have been fixed.
At the same time, Dr. Banner was asked to plan ahead for the high-speed railways that might appear all over the world in the future.
But the question that has to be said is, will all countries like this kind of thing as a high-speed railway system?
Not necessarily. Because of the construction of a high-speed railway, a railroad across the Bering Strait, connecting Shanghai to New York, will shorten the journey between the two places to two hours.
Conventional flights are one-tenth of the height of a rail system, and the carrying capacity of an airplane is simply not comparable to that of a railway.
The rise of high-speed railways will inevitably destroy the pattern of state rights in today's world, because it will represent the rise of a new generation of the six-power era.
And the era of sea power, which has ruled the earth for hundreds of years, will also decline. Because it is not only the flights that are affected, but also the sea freight that is most affected.
For example, fluorescent lamps produced in Guangdong fill ten containers, and it may take a month to ship them to the market shelves in the United States by sea.
And it may take a month for all these fluorescent tubes to be sold. The total value of ten containers of fluorescent tubes from cost to transportation to sale is more than millions of dollars. But it may only take a month for a factory to produce these tubes.
But it takes two months to ship and sell. The time cost of this is staggering!
To put it another way, if we were in Shanghai today, we fell in love with an old clock sold in a second-hand store in New York. If you buy online, you may have to wait a month or two to receive the goods. Maybe you forgot about it by the time you received it.
Sea transportation is too costly! Not only is it a drain on capital, but it is also a waste of time for both the seller and the buyer.
Just as Jacky said to Dr. Banner, the realization of the high-speed rail project will connect the whole world into a close one.
In the morning, we can produce part A in the U.S., and part B in China, and then in the afternoon, we can ship it together to Mexico or Nepal to assemble the two parts of AB into product C.
Since then, sugar from South Africa, timber from Madagascar, fruits from South America, and so on, and so on, due to geographical relations, products that are much more expensive than the place of origin can be purchased at low prices in cities around the world.
The mobility of the population will also become active due to the extreme ease of transportation. Dr. Banner remembers Leejay's uplifting words when he was trying to persuade him.
"It's the new Age of Discovery, but it's not a game for a few European countries. In old times, people sailed for spices and gold, for profit and colonization! It was a bloody game between great powers, a relationship between expropriation and dispossession. ”
And now, mankind has begun to take a step forward in the new age of discovery. We're tired of the bloody game, and this time we need to go anywhere in the world with the Earth! ”
"Let the grain of the big food countries be sold at a fair price to the areas where the price of food is high. Let people in poor areas be able to work in other areas. Let children in remote areas receive the same education as in big cities!"
Dr. Banner still remembers the kind of light in Li Jie's eyes when he said this, a kind of confidence and enthusiasm that Banner once carried with him when he was a teenager. At that time, Banner believed that his scientific research was to change the world and eliminate unnecessary wars.
At that time, Li Jie stared into Dr. Banner's eyes, waved his fist and said, "Maybe everything I said today is just delusion." Because there are all kinds of resistance in this world. The challenge of the era of sea power in the era of the Great 6 powers, the straits and sea nodes controlled by the old powers will disappear one by one. ”
"Even if you know what's right and what's advanced. But there will still be politicians who will stop this. Because for some people, the interests of the individual are far higher than the interests of the nation and the interests of all mankind!"
"But even so. I still chose to fight against those traditional giants. For them, maybe I, we, are just little people. But the little man has the energy of the little man! Give me a fulcrum, and I can pry the whole earth!"
"It's time to break the old world of trites, and the time has come to build a new one. Change the planet, connect the world, flatten the planet. Establish a new order!"
At that time, Li Jie stretched out his palm to Dr. Banner: "Come on, let's change the world together." And that's just the beginning!"
Dr. Banner remembers how agitated he was as he reached out and shook his hand with Lee. He had already thought about the problems that the high-speed railroad would encounter in the sales process.
The traditional sea power will definitely run this kind of thing that changes the world pattern. At the same time, these sea powers firmly control the right to speak in this world. Even if other countries want a high-speed rail system, they need to consider the reaction of those powerful countries politically.
After all, it wouldn't be good if there were brokerage sanctions. Not all countries can be as tough as the small countries of the North. After all, the citizens of most countries still need to eat.
But just when the high-speed rail project was just showing a little bit of noise, an unexpected customer came to the door.
One can completely ignore the traditional sea power, and even defeat Russia, which is known as the world's sixth military power, before that.
Banner had to talk to Tony on the phone, and at the same time make a phone call to Jack. Because this matter is something he can't decide personally, he doesn't know what kind of impact it will have on the world if he really agrees to this sales intention.
In front of Dr. Banner was an explanatory plan [Latvian High-Speed Railway Purchase Plan and New Eastern European Integration Program].
Doom has decided to reconnect the former CIS countries, and the integration of the new Eastern Europe has been put on the table!
And thinking with the big toe can understand how many of these conflicts may explode. The new Commonwealth of Eastern Europe is bordered to the east by Russia, one of the five permanent members of the United Nations, and to the west is the traditional sea power of Western Europe.
The integration of the new Eastern Europe, a double-edged sword with incalculable consequences, may also become the first game-breaker in the new world, and the first crack to break the obsolete has appeared.
