The previous Typhoon Andre made landfall in the Ba Gao area of Cagayan Province in the Philippines, then swept across the northern part of Luzon Island before entering the South Central and National Seas. The expert team of the "Western Pacific Typhoon Fund", through the "Pearl of the Orient" supercomputer, has successfully calculated that there is a 45% probability that a typhoon will make landfall in this area.

The Foundation then relayed the prediction to the Philippine side through the Hong Kong Observatory. But the Philippine authorities apparently did not pay attention, or even if they did, the government did not have such a strong ability to mobilize and coordinate evacuation.

Although Li Xuan was a petty man in later generations, he often scolded officials for protecting each other and being corrupt. But when a real natural disaster strikes, our grassroots government can really do door-to-door transfer of people. Our soldiers can really move forward without risking their own lives. In Li Xuan's view, not every country has such a strong ability to execute!

Typhoon Andre caused dozens of deaths and missing lives in the Philippines and tens of thousands of people were affected. The "Western Pacific Typhoon Fund" expressed regret and condolences for this, but Li Xuan didn't really care about how many people died in Southeast Asia.

If Li Xuan is truly compassionate, as the richest man in the world at this time, he should take the initiative to donate money and materials to the Filipino people. If the compatriots in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the mainland were to suffer from natural disasters, he would naturally be obliged to do his part. But for Filipino monkeys, Li Xuan doesn't have that enthusiasm.

What he really needs is to use this Typhoon Andrey to further enhance the influence of the "Western Pacific Typhoon Fund" in the whole region. In fact, typhoon is a very elusive meteorological disaster, and the supercomputers of later generations are 10 million times more powerful than the current "Pearl of the Orient", and they cannot accurately predict the path of typhoons.

The "Pearl of the Orient" was able to accurately hit Typhoon Andrey this time and will make landfall in the Bagao area. In fact, it is also a blind cat that meets a dead mouse. In fact, the written information reported by the Hong Kong Observatory to the Philippine Meteorological Department said that Typhoon Andre may make landfall along the coast of Cagayan Province. Among them, the Bagao region is the most likely.

The first half of this sentence really reflects the predictive value of the "Pearl of the Orient" supercomputer, because according to a series of meteorological numbers provided by the Hong Kong Observatory about Typhoon Andrey. The "Pearl of the Orient" supercomputer, after calculations by specialized software, came to the conclusion that it would make landfall off the coast of Cagayan province.

The hundreds of kilometers of coastline in northern Luzon facing the western Pacific Ocean belong to Cagayan Province, so this forecast is still relatively rough. In the future, with the increasing power of computers and the continuous improvement of related software, the direction of typhoon track prediction efforts is to continuously narrow the scope of possible landfall.

For example, the "Pearl of the Orient" can only predict that a typhoon will make landfall on the Philippine island of Luzon, so if the Philippine government is very responsible for the lives and property of its citizens. If there is a government with strong control and coordination, then it may declare a state of emergency for the whole of Luzon.

However, if the predicted landfall can be narrowed down to Cagayan Province, then the southern part of Luzon will not need to be affected by the typhoon, and production and life will not be greatly affected. In fact, this can virtually reduce a lot of economic losses, because many factories and construction sites do not need to be urgently shut down due to typhoons.

If the forecast can be further accurate to the Bagao area, then the Philippine government will be able to focus on the deployment of defenses, and the efficiency of disaster relief can be much improved. After all, the entire coastline of Cagayan Province is hundreds of kilometers long, and the Philippine government cannot prevent such a large area.

The "Pearl of the Orient" supercomputer accurately predicted the specific landing location of Typhoon Andrey. Regardless of whether it's a blind cat running into a dead mouse. The first public debut of the Western Pacific Typhoon Fund is off to at least a perfect start.

"We, the Western Pacific Typhoon Fund, have issued an initiative to countries in Southeast Asia and East Asia to establish a regional cooperation organization. We will share the meteorological resources of various countries to better reduce the economic losses caused by typhoon disasters to all countries every year! Our fund is willing to establish this regional cooperation organization. Provide a portion of the start-up capital!

At the same time, the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean coast of North America are also high-risk areas for hurricanes. Our fund is also liaising with meteorological departments in the United States, Mexico and other countries. It is hoped that the exchange of information will be enhanced, after all, typhoons and hurricanes are both tropical cyclones. It's just a different name!

For example, we have just reached an agreement with the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to contribute 5 million Hong Kong dollars to join. They have entrusted Tracor with the development of an improved weather reconnaissance system, the IWRS project!

The WC-130E meteorological reconnaissance plane that took off from Kai Tak Airport just now has a test model of the IWRS system installed, and the advanced instruments can accurately collect various meteorological numbers, which will provide more data support for the 'Pearl of the Orient' supercomputer to calculate the next moving path of Typhoon Andrey!"

The press conference continued, and Zhong Chuhong answered various questions from reporters on the scene with ease.

Li Xuan is now the richest man in the world, and his philanthropy can no longer be limited to a corner of Hong Kong. And under the arrangement and planning of the professional public relations team behind him, he has also changed the previous simple and rude way of donating money directly, but is more and more inclined to set up various charitable funds to maximize the effect of every penny.

For example, this time, in the name of himself and Oriental Group Company, he invested 100 million Hong Kong dollars each to set up this "Western Pacific Typhoon Fund". This can benefit more than a dozen countries in Southeast Asia and East Asia, which are prone to typhoons, and is equivalent to making Li Xuan and the Eastern Group a favor in front of more than a billion people.

With the annual typhoon season in the Western Pacific, which lasts from May to November, the Western Pacific Fund is an opportunity for the Eastern Bloc to further establish good relations with governments in East and Southeast Asia.

In the past few years, Li Xuan has been focusing on the developed regions of North America, Europe and Japan. In his opinion, games like GameBoy sell for as much as $20 worldwide, and the price of a GameBoy is almost equivalent to half a month's salary for a worker in many regions.

The products of the Eastern Bloc should have sold very little in these places, but the actual number jù slapped him in the face. The overall economy of these countries in Southeast Asia is still relatively backward, but this does not mean that there are no rich people. Dongfang Electronics' game consoles, computers and other products are not low sales in many countries in Southeast Asia. After all, this is a large market with a population base of hundreds of millions of people, and the purchasing power of just a small group of wealthy people is very considerable.

Therefore, the Southeast Asian market will be the region that the Eastern Bloc is preparing to focus on in the next step. Moreover, Dongfang Electronics, as a Hong Kong company, actually has very convenient conditions for entering the Southeast Asian market. Because the economic lifeline of many countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand is actually in the hands of Chinese businessmen, and Hong Kong is an important springboard for Chinese businessmen in Southeast Asia to diversify their investment risks.

The reason why Hong Kong will gradually develop into a world-class financial center in the future is not only because of the special conditions of being backed by the mainland, but also because of the inflow of Chinese capital from Southeast Asia. For example, even though Hong Kong's economy was relatively turbulent last year, it still received 2 billion Hong Kong dollars in investment from Southeast Asia.

Although cooperation with Chinese businessmen in Southeast Asia can quickly open up the market, the political status of the Chinese in Southeast Asian countries is actually not high, and during the Asian financial crisis in the later generations, there were also bad anti-Chinese incidents in Indonesia. Therefore, the Eastern Bloc needs to establish a good relationship with the government to increase its political insurance, and the charity halo is also the best umbrella.

Since the birth of twin siblings Xiao Nuomi and Xiao Tangyuan, Zhong Chuhong has focused most of his energy on taking care of the children. She has also resigned from a series of positions she held in ATV Group, and is ready to accompany the growth of her two children wholeheartedly.

However, this "Western Pacific Typhoon Fund" is likely to become a charitable organization with important influence in the Asian region, driven by the Eastern Bloc. Therefore, in order to maximize the benefits, it is best for Li Xuan himself to serve as the chairman of the foundation.

But Li Xuan was not interested in this, so he simply persuaded his wife to serve as chairman on his behalf. Moreover, Zhong Chuhong, as the wife of the world's richest man, is not only a fashion vane of Hong Kong's high society, but also said to have a lot of influence among women in Southeast Asia.
