The next day, Vientiane and his entourage were busy, making frequent contact with the government, stock exchanges, media and newspapers.

Lin Han also took a few people and took the Shinkansen from Tokyo to Fukushima Prefecture.

Fukushima Prefecture is a prefecture in the southern part of the Tohoku region of Japan, and its population was originally in the middle of the first ranks.

But in recent years, the population of Fukushima Prefecture has been declining due to nuclear contamination.

Also because of the nuclear contamination, this "fruit kingdom", once known for its abundance of fruits, is now in a slump in the fruit industry, as are most other industries.

Tens of thousands of deaths due to the earthquake and nuclear radiation are even more haunting the sky over Fukushima......

Years after the massive earthquake and the explosion of the nuclear power plant, it seems that Fukushima Prefecture has returned to normal.

At least, the few people who came with Lin Han, including the translator, didn't notice anything unusual.

However, Lin Han clearly sensed that near the original nuclear power plant, the density of organisms was significantly lower, and there were also some various microbial mutations.

To this day, the biological impact is still so severe, and you can imagine how the original explosion caused damage to the ecology of Fukushima.

……

After Lin Han and his group came to Fukushima, he asked his subordinates to collect information on nuclear contamination and contact the local county office at the same time.

Of course, he himself did not forget to pay attention to the geological changes in Fukushima.

Unfortunately, no strong earthquakes of magnitude 6 or higher have been observed in the vicinity of Fukushima or more.

And I don't know if it was because the 8.9 magnitude earthquake a few years ago was too violent, so the geology of Fukushima has been very stable recently, and in the context of Japan, it can almost be said that the ancient well is not wavering.

Judging by this momentum, Fukushima is unlikely to have any more strong earthquakes......

At a sushi restaurant in Minamiaizu Town, far from the polluted area, Lin Han sat with a few people, eating and talking.

"Li Han, how is your investigation of the pollution situation at the Fukushima nuclear power plant?" asked Lin Han.

Li Han put down his chopsticks and said: "When the nuclear power plant explosion first occurred, the situation was indeed very serious, and even caused panic on an international scale for a time. But after a few years of governance, the situation is actually much better......"

"After the accident, TEPCO hired 50 death squads to repair the plant urgently, and even offered a whopping 400,000 yen a day for it. After a series of emergency measures, the nuclear contamination in Fukushima has indeed been curbed to a large extent......"

Listening to Li Han's narration, the fat man sitting next to him suddenly asked with some curiosity: "What happened to the death squad that participated in the emergency repair?"

When Lin Han heard this, he couldn't help but look at Li Han with a little curiosity.

Li Han coughed: "Several people died the next year, but TEPCO claimed that none of these deaths had anything to do with the nuclear contamination itself." ”

The fat man pouted: "It's really fake, I don't read much, don't lie to me." ”

"It's hard to say...... After all, a trip to a heavily contaminated area, even if there is no excess radiation, the psychological pressure is definitely not small. Li Han lifted his black square-rimmed glasses.

"And there are still 60-year-old elders in the death squad, so TEPCO's statement is not impossible. ”

Lin Han shook his head, ignored the matter of the death squad, and then asked: "What is the situation in Fukushima now, and how much nuclear contamination is left?"

Li Han continued: "Although it is not as exaggerated as the outside world is alarmist, nuclear contamination is indeed very stubborn, especially soil nuclear pollution, which has become the most serious problem that plagues the authorities. ”

Soil nuclear contamination...... Hearing this, Lin Han couldn't help but groan.

The so-called nuclear contamination mainly refers to the leakage of radioactive materials.

And these radioactive materials belong to heavy metals in a broad sense, but because of the presence of radiation, they are more lethal.

Therefore, to a large extent, the control of nuclear pollution is also the treatment of heavy metal pollution.

As for the main problem in Fukushima at the moment, there is no doubt that it is to control the heavy metal pollution in the soil.

Lin Han pondered for a moment, then turned his head and said, "Xiao Ning, you will help me write a letter and submit it to the Fukushima County Office, the specific content is ......"

……

Fukushima Prefectural Office, Governor's Office.

The title of "governor" originated from the prefect and county in ancient China, and was referred to as the governor because it was also called "knowing a certain place at that time".

Therefore, the governor of a prefecture in Japan, that is, the chief executive of the prefecture, is responsible for the administrative affairs of the prefecture.

The current governor of Fukushima Prefecture, Yuhei Sato, who is in his fifties, sits in his office and immerses himself in reviewing office documents.

After a moment he put down his pen, stretched out, and then reclined himself in his seat to rest.

Although he was resting, Yuhei Sato's expression was not relaxed, and he frowned as he looked at the ceiling.

On his desk, in addition to his daily government documents, there is a slightly messy stack of materials about the Fukushima nuclear contamination next to it.

Although this information on nuclear contamination has been increased or decreased several times, it has been in place for several years since it was placed in the governor's office, and it has been served by three governors.

This can be said to be "the nuclear pollution of iron, the governor of the prefecture of flowing water".

So whenever Yuhei Sato thinks about nuclear contamination, he can't help but feel a little worse.

The Fukushima Prefectural Government and the Japanese central government have been trying to find a way to deal with nuclear contamination once and for all, and have repeatedly consulted specialized scientific research institutions, including various universities, laboratories, and companies.

But the results were not satisfactory.

So far, the government has not found any efficient solution.

The contamination of Fukushima's soil has seriously hindered the economic development of the local and even the whole country, and even triggered some diplomatic disputes.

The treatment scheme is inefficient, and the half-life of nuclear power raw materials is tens of thousands or hundreds of millions of years, and it is impossible to wait for self-decay.

Therefore, after several discussions, the government has decided to choose the most expensive treatment strategy - contaminated soil transitional storage equipment.

The name sounds formal, but in layman's terms, it means digging up the contaminated soil and putting it away.

It's a huge project and a lot of money, but it's the only solution that can cure the root cause of soil nuclear pollution.

As the plan progressed one after another, Yuhei Sato breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the construction of these facilities is not only costly, but also time-consuming.

During this period, both the Fukushima Prefectural Government and the Japanese government will bear a certain economic burden, especially for local development, which can be said to be quite unfavorable.

Therefore, although the plan for transitional storage equipment has already begun to be implemented, Governor Sato still has a lingering haze in his heart.

"Alas......"

He sighed slightly, and was about to get up to continue working on the remaining papers, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Knock knock. ”

Yuhei Sato seemed to be accustomed to it, and said lightly: "The door is not closed, please come in." ”

Reiko Tachibana, a young female secretary, pushed the door open, holding some documents in her hand, and put them on Yuhei Sato's desk.

"Governor Sato. ”

Yuhei Sato flipped through it casually, was suddenly stunned, turned his head and asked, "Reiko, what is this letter?"
