There are a total of 7 seawater desalination solutions provided by Jian to Jiang Chen.

After combining the actual situation of the new country, Jiang Chen finally chose a design called a hybrid energy desalination plant, and handed over the low-tech parts to the factory in the new and Malaysian special economic zone for production, and the high-tech equipment to the high-tech industrial park on the island of Anga.

Although the industrial park is nominally listed, only the factory of the future heavy industry is the factory of the company, and the service-oriented machine is the assembly plant. Every month, 400,000 "Xiaolin" will leave the production line, be shipped to the port, and sold all over the world.

Now, a new production line has been added to the assembly plant. With the industrial-grade 3D printing equipment that Jiang Chen brought from the end of the world last time, the core components of the seawater desalination device were produced.

All the processed parts were transported to the sea east of Koro Island, where they were assembled by amphibious engineering machines.

Unlike the construction plan of Penglai City, the assembled seawater desalination project has not been made public. Due to its small size, it was not until the construction was completed and the assembled unit floated up as a whole and was transported by ship to a position 100 meters off the coast of Koro Island to "anchor" that people became aware of this behemoth......

……

One day at noon, the sun was shining brightly and the blue sky was cloudless.

The palm fronds of coconut palms swaying the shadows of the trees, and the Washington Post reporter Jim Lane is lounging on the beach on the east shore of Koro Island, enjoying this rare vacation.

The island is always full of countless news, and people in Washington are unexpectedly full of interest in this small island, and if they write two reports about Penglai City and put them in the headlines, the sales of the newspaper will increase a lot. Rather, the reason why many people buy newspapers is to see if the Future People Group has come up with something new.

Having just finished writing his last report on Penglai City, Jim sent the article back to the newspaper's headquarters, and he also received an email with a promotion. The manager of the newspaper intended to transfer him back to the headquarters as the editor-in-chief of the newspaper. After receiving the news, he excitedly opened five bottles of champagne in a row.

He has five days off before returning to Washington, and he plans to use that time to recuperate.

The tropical temperature made him drowsy, but just as he looked at the rising heat of the sea and was about to take a nap, an exclamation from not far away dispelled all his sleepiness.

"Jim, get up, there's something on the sea!" Just then, his little girlfriend in a bikini ran over and put the freshly purchased shaved ice on the beach table, shaking his shoulders to wake him up.

"Wait, are you sure you saw a mirage?" said reluctantly, but Jim got up from his recliner and trotted to the dunes not far from the beach, let his excited girlfriend pull him.

His journalistic instincts told him that there might really be something terrible at sea.

And the facts confirmed his guess.

By the time they were halfway there, a dark glimpse had already appeared on the surface of the sea.

Supported by four steamers, the metal floating island, about the size of a basketball court, was parked not far from the beach.

Jim gradually stopped, took his girlfriend's hand, and stared at the sea in a daze.

In his ears, there was a Chinese of wonder that had gathered together......

"Daddy, what's that?"

"It's incredible! My phone, wife, where is my phone? I'm going to take a picture and send it to the trick! Oh, Shet, it's in my hand......"

"I bet this must be the ghost of the Future People Group again!"

"Don't worry, baby, maybe in two days we'll be able to buy tickets and go out in the sun. Don't forget to put on your new swimsuit......"

“……”

Suddenly, the crowd erupted in an exclamation again, waking up Jim and his girlfriend in a daze. I saw that the shell of the metal floating island began to expand in all directions, the air bag in the middle began to expand, and the iron pipe located under the water began to float.

"Jim, what's that?" Jenny asked, holding the reporter's boyfriend's hand, incredulously.

However, at this moment, her boyfriend, who usually dotes on her the most, shook off her hand.

"Cell phone...... Hell, my phone and camera are in my bag! Waiting for me here, Jenny, I'll be right back!"

Under his girlfriend's incredulous gaze, Jim yelled and ran in the direction of the luggage storage spot......

However, Jim was unable to capture the unfolding of the behemoth.

In plain sight, this basketball court-sized metal floating island unfolds into the size of a football field!

The square design is very similar to the ******** of offshore oil production, the only difference is the wide unscientific area, and the hundreds of graphene pipelines crisscrossed on the surface.

Around this steel floating island, there are rows of cylindrical buoys connected by pipes. These cylinders protrude vertically into the seabed and serve as a seawater collection unit for the entire desalination plant. The collected seawater is coarsely filtered, sent to an intermediate distillation unit through a guò graphene pipe, and then desalinated water is exported through an outlet at the bottom of the guò platform.

The interface on the left can be connected to the power unit for power transmission, and the entire plant will only be in operation when the power is turned on. The modular design makes it possible to supply both thermal and solar power to the plant.

The most important thing is that the desalination plant can be moved. If you are not satisfied with the current location, or if a typhoon is about to pass by, you only need to put away the graphene anchor cable fixed to the bottom of the sea, split several main modules, and tow the ship to other places to complete the redeployment.

As long as it is connected from the land, this "desalination platform" will continuously deliver fresh water to the people living on land.

Of course, this desalination platform cannot be deployed in tourist attractions, and the reason why it chose to complete the initial deployment here is mainly to advertise this new equipment for free.

"It's incredible. Standing at the top of the Future Man Building, Nayev looked through the telescope at the desalination platform, the corners of his mouth almost closed.

Originally, he planned to send his secretary to visit, but out of the importance of the project, he flew to Koro himself.

"We'll see a lot of similar comments in the newspaper tomorrow," Jiang Chen said with a smile standing next to him, "so we might as well talk about something more interesting." ”

"How much are you going to sell this platform for?" asked Nayev without looking back, as if his eyes were glued to the telescope.

"We don't sell. Jiang Chen shook his head.

Nayev was stunned, his eyes finally moved away from the binoculars, and he looked back at Jiang Chen in confusion.

"Didn't we say okay?" Jiang Chen smiled, "We will supply you with fresh water at a price of $1 per ton." ”

Compared with a hammer deal, Jiang Chen prefers a business that flows in a long way. And if it masters Saudi Arabia's fresh water supply market, the Future People Group will gain more than just benefits on paper.

No one can live without fresh water, especially those in the desert.

Wait until the future people group use cheaper desalinated water, and gradually squeeze out other desalination plants. At that time, the Future People Group, which will control the desalination platform, is equivalent to grasping the lifeblood of these water-scarce countries.

At that time, the entire Persian Gulf, the countries along the Red Sea will be inseparable from the fresh water of the Future People Group. It is also at that time that they will be the first to look forward to the future of the group. (To be continued.) )
