Chapter 346: Talent!

"Wilson, you can't do this, my project is almost successful, just a little bit away, and if you do, the hard work we put in in the early stage will be in vain. 『』”

Before Li Zhiyang could walk to him, he heard Cao Guang say to the white fat man with an excited expression!

"I'm sorry, Ricky, I really can't help it, you know the current situation, the school can't come up with that much money, so it's inevitable to cut expenses. ”

The white fat man shrugged his shoulders and said to Cao Guang.

Li Zhiyang and Nancy had already walked up to them at this time, and there were already many onlookers around at this time.

After all, these two people are both famous figures in Aliri, one is the big man in charge of the school's funding, and the other is a well-known professor in the school!

At this time, Cao Guang was competing with the white fat man Wilson, and he didn't notice Li Zhiyang and Nancy, who had secretly walked to his side.

"You're a communiqué vendetta, Wilson, and you can't cut my budget because of the conflict between us. You know, my project team and I have put a lot of effort into this project, and it's about to come to fruition. ”

Cao Guang's emotions were already very excited at this time, and his voice became louder and louder.

At this time, when the white fat man Wilson heard Cao Guang say this, his face suddenly became very embarrassed, after all, it is not a good thing to be said to be a personal vendetta in such a public.

"Ricky, word of idea, if you have to say this to me, then you have to wait to receive my lawyer's letter!"

Wilson, the fat white man, couldn't hold his face, he felt that he had been slandered!

"You ......" Cao Guang's face was suddenly flushed, Wilson said that what he said was indeed not wrong, and his words and deeds just now could indeed be sued in the United States.

At this time, he was emotional, and he was a little speechless. "Official Tone"

Li Zhiyang couldn't stand it anymore at this time, he and this Cao Guang were like a game, and he couldn't bear to see him make a fool of himself in front of so many people.

Although he didn't know what was going on, he had listened to their conversation for so long and knew what it meant.

It must be the research project that Cao Guang is in charge of, and this white fat man used the financial crisis as an excuse to cut the budget expenditure.

It is very likely that Cao Guang's project will be unsustainable because of this result, and can only end in failure.

Li Zhiyang stepped forward and grabbed Cao Guang, who was already on the verge of losing control, you must know that this is in public.

If Cao Guang did something emotionally excessive, it would have a very bad impact.

This is not the Celestial Empire, this is the United States, a place where everything is lawless, if Cao Guang can't control it, go up and give that Wilson two blows.

Not to mention looking at the physique of the two people, whether he can beat this Wilson, even if he can beat him, Cao Guang himself will have to go to prison because of this in the end.

Cao Guang looked at the white fat man in front of him at this time, looking at his oily face, his eyes that were almost squeezed invisible, and he was really angry.

He really wanted to go up and slap this guy a few times, but suddenly he felt his arm be pulled.

When he looked back, he saw a tall young man, who was still very familiar at first glance, and suddenly remembered that this young man was not exactly at the time of the Chinese New Year, when his father died.

helped his family to rectify that Huang Baitao, his father's former student Li Zhiyang?

When did he come to the United States, could it be that he was a student at this school? No? I had told him before that if he came to the United States, he would definitely contact himself so that he could be regarded as a landlord.

Cao Guang was very surprised to see Li Zhiyang here at this time. 『』

But looking at Li Zhiyang looking at him with a smile, it seems that he has been here for a long time, and he can see the quarrel between himself and Wilson very clearly.

"Is that you? Why are you here?" Cao Guang asked at this time.

"Hehe, I happened to come to travel, I just happened to encounter this scene, why did you encounter any difficulties?"

Li Zhiyang asked with a smile.

"Hey......" Cao Guang sighed and didn't answer.

At this time, his emotions had calmed down, and he knew that he was too much of an image just now!

At this time, Wilson was obviously stuck in his neck, but with what he just said, he could really take himself to court with this.

And now this Wilson has said so badly, even if he is begging him, it is useless, this guy is obviously a personal vendetta.

I can't do anything with him, if I continue to make trouble like this, there will be no good results, so forget it.

"Let's go out and talk, this is not the place to talk anyway. ”

Li Zhiyang said to him in the Celestial Empire dialect at this time.

Cao Guang shook his head, although he was very unwilling, but he knew that even if he continued to talk to this Wilson, there would be no good results.

He is also a well-known professor-level figure in this university, and it can only be self-inflicted humiliation to continue to make trouble in this public.

Thinking about it after several years of painstaking study, but just when he was about to see the results, Cao Guang was really unwilling to be put on the table like this.

After several years of research, just when the results are about to be produced, is it possible that the womb is stillborn like this? But now that the situation is stronger than people, what results can be achieved when the results are recognized?

Cao Guang shook his head a little frustrated and sighed. 『』

Li Zhiyang looked at him like this and knew that he must be sad in his heart at this time, so he said again.

"Brother Cao, there's nothing you can do if you stay here, but there is no hurdle in this world that you can't get over, go, go out and talk to me, maybe I can do something!"

Cao Guang listened to Li Zhiyang's words, and felt a warmth directly appear in his heart, this little brother is a nodding friend, but people can say such things.

It seems that the other party is really a real person, and if he stays here any longer, it will be embarrassing, so it's better to go out and go around with him.

Don't be depressed here!

So Cao Guang didn't say much, and followed Li Zhiyang and Nancy out of the campus.

Li Zhiyang has never been to Boston, but it doesn't mean that Nancy hasn't been here either, she is a native American after all, not to mention, there is Cao Guang, who can be regarded as a landlord here.

The three of them quickly found a restaurant and went in and sat down.

Li Zhiyang and Nancy drove over, but they didn't have to eat, and it was already noon at this time, and the two of them happened to be hungry, planning to solve the problem here.

Li Zhiyang and Nancy both ordered a big meal, but Cao Guang was not in the mood to eat, so he simply asked for a glass of whiskey and a little Sarah, which seemed to be about to use wine to drown his sorrows.

Li Zhiyang and Nancy glanced at each other, and they both knew that Cao Guang must be psychologically uncomfortable at this time, so they didn't say anything.

The two of them began to bow their heads and eat violently, but Cao Guang didn't eat a few bites, but killed the whiskey in front of him in one gulp. Then Cao Guangyou asked the waiter for a drink.

"Brother Cao, it's not a way for you to drink like this, let's talk about it, see what's going on, see if I can help. ”

Li Zhiyang saw that it was not a way to go on like this, so he asked out loud. 『』

"Hey, it's not a big deal, it's just that I've been researching a project for three years, and it's about to produce results, but as you can see, Wilson, who is in charge of the school's own allocation, doesn't give me funding, so my project can't go on, and I don't know when I want to produce results. ”

Cao Guang said with a lonely expression.

He didn't plan to hide this from Li Zhiyang and them, anyway, they had just seen it.

To be honest, he felt very surprised to see Li Zhiyang today, and he didn't think Li Zhiyang could help anything?

After all, this is not a small amount, but a project that requires tens of millions of dollars to be invested, but what Li Zhiyang just said is very heartwarming, so he doesn't want to hide it from Li Zhiyang.

"Then Wilson, why didn't you give you an appropriation?" asked Nancy suddenly.

"Hey, this ......" Cao Guang's face became more embarrassed.

He was silent for a while, and then told the reason for the incident, it turned out that this Cao Guang was a graduate student in MIT when he first arrived in the United States.

While he was studying in the United States, he met an American female classmate, Jessica, and Wilson was also their classmate at the time.

You must know that MIT is a science and engineering school, and of course there is a phenomenon of more wolves and less meat in such a school, and Jessica was a charming stunner back then.

However, Cao Guang had a good life, and inadvertently got the favor of this goddess, and later after he graduated, he stayed in the United States because of the better academic atmosphere in the United States, and became a relative to Jessica.

And Wilson actually had a crush on Jessica since he was in college, and later Cao Guang snatched his love, which made him very angry.

Later, both of them chose to stay in school and work, and Wilson never forgot the depression caused by Cao Guang winning the school flower back then, so of course he would retaliate against Cao Guang when he had the opportunity.

And this time, of course, Wilson will not miss such an opportunity to rectify Cao Guang!

"Oh, Brother Cao, what project are you responsible for researching?" asked Li Zhiyang aloud after Cao Guang finished speaking. 『』

To be honest, he admires these people who can devote themselves to scientific research, because such people often have to endure loneliness, and you must know that there are many temptations in this society.

Many people engaged in scientific research eventually gave up their pursuit because they couldn't suppress their pursuit of materialism.

In such an era of rampant materialism, it is not easy for people who can still concentrate on scientific research, at least they must have materials and be able to exercise strict self-discipline.

Therefore, Li Zhiyang feels that this Cao Guang is a talent, and it is not simple. This time he is in trouble again, if he can reach out to the handle, he will reach out and help him!

Moreover, as long as the project studied by Cao Guang is not prohibited by a private person, you can also see if you can find a project to do, which can be regarded as an early investment.

"It's a desalination project. Cao Guang replied casually.

"Oh? ”

Li Zhiyang was immediately interested when he heard this, you must know that this desalination project is not simple!

You know, two-thirds of the surface of the earth is covered with water, but 97 percent of this water is seawater, or brackish water.

These theories cannot be directly used by human beings, and now with the development of human beings and the continuous demand for nature, many countries and regions in the world have fallen into a situation of water shortage.

The water that is lacking is the fresh water that can be used by humans!

According to a United Nations study, 1.2 billion people are currently under moderate to high water scarcity, 80 countries have insufficient water resources, and 2 billion people do not have access to drinking water. It is expected that by 2025, the situation will deteriorate further, and the population with water scarcity will reach 2.8 billion ~ 3.3 billion. World Bank officials predict that in the next five years, "water will run like oil around the world."

This situation is especially acute in the Celestial Empire, a country with severe drought and water shortages. The total amount of freshwater resources is 2.8 trillion cubic meters, accounting for 6% of the world's water resources, second only to Brazil, Russia and Canada, ranking fourth in the world, but only 2,200 cubic meters per capita, only 1/4 of the world average, 1/5 of the United States, ranking 121st in the world, and one of the 13 countries with the poorest per capita water resources in the world.

The Celestial Empire has been included in the list of 13 water-poor countries in the world for per capita water resources. Moreover, it is unevenly distributed, a large number of freshwater resources are concentrated in the south, and the freshwater resources in the north are only 1/4 of the water resources in the south. According to statistics, more than half of the more than 600 cities in the country are short of water to varying degrees, and coastal cities are no exception, or even worse.

At present, the urban water supply of the Celestial Empire is mainly surface water or groundwater, or the two water sources are mixed, some cities have caused the groundwater level to drop due to over-exploitation of groundwater, and some cities have formed a large funnel of several hundred square kilometers, causing seawater to pour back dozens of kilometers. Due to the wanton discharge of industrial wastewater, more than 80% of surface water and groundwater are polluted.

Some experts warn that "in 20 years, the Celestial Empire will not be able to find drinkable water".

According to a report published by the ———Worldwatch Institute, an influential think tank in the United States, "Due to the rapid increase in the demand for water in urban and industrial areas of the Celestial Empire, the Celestial Empire will fall into a long-term water shortage." ”

The Yellow River of the Celestial Empire has been running for more than 10 years, including 226 days in 1997. The Huai River, which flows through some densely populated areas of the Celestial Empire, also stopped flowing for 90 days last year.

According to satellite photographs, hundreds of lakes are drying up, and in some places "sexual" rivers are disappearing.

At present, more than 300 of the more than 600 cities are short of water, of which 108 are seriously short of water.

Among them, the per capita water share of the Guangdi Capital is 1/13 of the world's per capita water share, which is not as good as that of some arid Arab countries.

In recent years, due to over-exploitation and indiscriminate deforestation, rivers have been cut off in many places in the northern part of the Celestial Empire.

In northern Hebei Province, for example, according to a report by Wangzhou Weekly, this region, which has less per capita water resources than the "Se" column, relies on a large amount of over-extracted groundwater, which hides the important fact that there is an extreme shortage of water. The province has over-extracted 60 billion cubic meters of groundwater, of which 30 billion cubic meters of deep groundwater can no longer be replenished. In another 15 years, the groundwater in Shishi will be exhausted. At present, the North China Plain has the world's largest underground composite funnel area, covering 40,000 square kilometers. In many parts of the west, large areas of trees that have been alive for many years have died due to severe groundwater overexploitation.

Some experts said: We are maintaining Gou An at a heavy price, and the false green "color" makes us still leisurely.

The contrast between the inside and the outside reminds people of a commonly used sentence in "Water Margin"——— I don't know how to die!"

Of course, these situations were also learned by Li Zhiyang in his previous life, when he followed his boss and was working on a city's tap water project.

At that time, after coming into contact with such a situation, he felt shocked, and he did not know if those experts were alarmist.

However, it is an indisputable fact that the Celestial Empire lacks water, and because of its lack of water.

It is estimated that the managers of the Celestial Empire are not unaware of such a situation, but they are powerless if they know, who makes the population of the Celestial Empire large!

If you want to say at this time, raise the price of water, and I am afraid that the people underground will stop working immediately. The Celestial Empire is now showing a pattern of rising prices for everything.

If even the most basic domestic water price is increased, it will definitely cause big problems in the future, and this people's livelihood and harmonious society have always been the most concerned issues for the idler's "government".

Therefore, even if the authorities know that the water situation in the Celestial Empire is deteriorating, they have not been able to do anything about it.

In fact, some well-known investment banks in the United States, such as Citigroup and Da Mo and other investment banks with relatively large influence in China, have long begun to intervene in the Celestial Empire's freshwater development plan!

Because they have been very smart to see that the prospect of scarcity of fresh water in the future of the Celestial Empire will not take a few decades, and the supply of fresh water will become a big problem in the Celestial Empire.

As a carbon-based animal, the most important component of the human body is actually water, so human life is inseparable from the necessary fresh water!

Therefore, just looking at the layout of these large companies in the Celestial Empire, we have to admire the shrewdness of others, this fresh water as a few necessities for human survival, if it faces the situation of depletion in the future, it will become a pattern in which the price of water is higher than the price of oil.

Therefore, in many large cities of the Celestial Empire, there are large foreign investment banks or investment institutions in the freshwater renovation projects.

In a few decades, they will all make a lot of money on these projects!

This is also something that cannot be helped, because the concept of scientific environmental protection in our Celestial Empire has risen relatively late, and in recent times, in order to keep up with the requirements of GDP, many of these environmental protection concepts have been ignored, or the two powers have harmed each other.

Therefore, the water resources of the Celestial Empire have been seriously wasted and polluted! Recommended reading: - - -
