"That's not what I said. You are different from everyone else. Fan Heng saw that his son was a little disapproving, so he taught him, "If it's just a pure ya-houser who asks flowers and asks willows to steal chickens and dogs, it's just that, no one in the Politburo will naturally care about these things, but your current identity is even more eye-catching than me, a member of the Standing Committee, so you need to be cautious." ”

Fan Heng's words are of course somewhat reasonable, in fact, from the very beginning, Fan Wuxi's reputation has always been above his father Fan Heng, and the degree of attention from the top level is second to none in China, especially after leaving the United States for a few years and returning to the mainland to develop, the powerful strength exposed is something that any far-sighted politician can not ignore.

Even if he is as strong as the old chief, he still has to rely on Fan Wuxi, but in this regard, his status has far exceeded the weight of a Standing Committee.

However, Fan Wuxian obviously didn't have any sense of identity with this kind of talk, and when he heard this, he laughed and said, "Dad, I'm not a popular character." In terms of private matters, it is better to hope that it will not be restricted, otherwise, if I am not happy at home, I will go to Australia to be my lord. ”

Fan Heng waved his hand and replied angrily, "Don't scare people by being the owner of the island if you have nothing to do, if you want to be the owner of the island, even near this coast, you can also sell one or two small islands to play, and no one has ever done this?" ”

Not to be outdone, Fan retorted, "What is the coastal environment, you don't know, where can it be compared with the undeveloped islands in Australia?" It's the pollution of the nearby sea that makes people no longer interested. ”

Mentioning this problem, Fan Heng couldn't help scratching his head, and said after a long time, "This is the unavoidable industrial pollution in the process of economic development, but what is the best way to eliminate it now?" ”

The speed of domestic economic construction has been heating up, with the liberalization of small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as the relaxation of some local protection policies to promote the environment, many small enterprises have been built in a swarm, including many small enterprises with high pollution and low output, the direct consequence is to lead to the continuous deterioration of the environment.

The Yangtze River is better, but the pollution in the Huai River and Haihe River basins has reached an unbearable state. In the long run, it will indeed be a big problem that will affect the survival of mankind.

"What we saw and heard in the reservoir area this time also made me feel very worried." Fan Heng touched a cigarette and was about to light it, but was stopped by Zhang Mei's cough, so he had to put the cigarette near his nose and smell it, and then said to Fan Wuxian, "Although the landslide looks dangerous, what worries me the most is the destruction of the entire southwest forest environment." ”

Fan Heng's worries about the forest ecological environment in southwest China mainly come from two facts: the first is that the world's largest papermaking company, Indonesia's Sinar Mas Paper Group, has entered southwest China and other places on a large scale, and the second is the large-scale and extremely blind destructive hydropower development boom on large and small rivers such as the Lancang River, the Nu River, and the Red River.

For the first thing, Fan Wuzhi himself seems to have a little impression, that is, APP colluded with some local officials in Yunnan to burn down the local secondary primeval forests on a large scale, and instead planted a single fast-growing giant eucalyptus for papermaking. After this incident was exposed by Greenpeace at the time, it was then reported by the news media, as if CCTV also went to the southwest to do a program at that time, filming a large number of burned primitive secondary forests.

However, it is unfortunate that after this incident, the serious destruction of the ecological environment and biodiversity caused by deforestation in the southwest and the conversion of the single tree species of Eucalyptus to the whole tree has not been reduced in the slightest, but has been rapidly and rapidly swept out of the local area at a faster rate and on a larger scale. Advancing to the entire southwest region, the entire Chengdu Plain in Sichuan Province has begun to plant eucalyptus on a large scale. And the only driving force behind this is to make paper, in order to satisfy Indonesia's already world-famous paper company APP, that is, Sinar Mas Paper, which has long been notorious in the world for ecological destruction.

Referring to this incident, Fan Wuxian said to Fan Heng, "Sinar Mas Paper's evil deeds are not only in the southwest of Yunnan, but also in the early years of large-scale planting of giant eucalyptus forests on Hainan Island, which turned the central hills of Hainan Island into the second loess plateau in the ecological world, which is known by everyone as China's second loess plateau, and also led to a severe drought on Hainan Island." ”

As for the second thing, Fan Wuxian himself is clearer.

In Yunnan, the development of rivers and hydropower, which was extremely chaotic and seriously damaged the ecological environment and the natural ecology of the river basin and the habitats of species, even aroused public doubts in some Southeast Asian countries. The State Council has issued documents calling for strict regulation of the development of small hydropower in Yunnan, and the premier once responded to an interview with reporters, stating that China will take a responsible attitude towards the development of hydropower in international rivers. Unfortunately, hydropower development in Yunnan has not slowed down since then, but has been advancing more rapidly.

As soon as Fan Wuxian thought of this, he couldn't help but make a crow's mouth prediction, "The ecology of Yunnan is over, the ecology of the southwest has suffered, and natural retaliation such as droughts may be frequent in the future, and due to the disrepair of farmland and water conservancy facilities, it will definitely be impossible to resist at that time." ”

Fan Heng touched his forehead and said a little tiredly, "There are some things, if you don't look at them in person, you won't know how serious the problem has become." ”

In recent years, a large number of Chinese and foreign forestry giants, such as Lee & Man Corporation, a listed company in Hong Kong, King of Japan, Asia's largest pulp and paper company, and a large number of Chinese and foreign forestry giants, such as Arakawa in Japan, Fenglin in Hong Kong, Jiahan in Canada, Xinwei in Guangdong, and Furies in Hainan, have rushed to invest in forestry. Only Qinzhou 1.8 million tons, Beihai 1.2 million tons, Wuzhou 1 million tons of three forest pulp and paper projects. The amount of investment amounted to 50 billion yuan, 22 billion yuan, and 10 billion yuan respectively. At present, foreign-funded enterprises have invested in the transformation of more than 5 million mu of Sufeng forests in Guangxi, and patches of mountain forests have been planted with single tree species such as fast-growing eucalyptus.

In Japan, in order to protect the natural ecological environment, especially biodiversity, the Japanese government prohibits the planting of fast-growing and high-yield forests of a single tree species that consume water and soil nutrients.

"Although there has been sufficient scientific evidence that fast-growing eucalyptus trees can cause serious damage to the ecological environment, especially groundwater, soil and biodiversity, it does not seem to have attracted enough attention in China. Although Europe, the United States, New Zealand and the United Nations have already taken negative actions against fast-growing eucalyptus, the global paper giants who continue to attract investment in China are still frantically enclosing land in China, destroying primitive secondary forests and planting eucalyptus trees. If this situation is allowed to continue, most of China's groundwater and other natural ecological environments will inevitably suffer even more serious ecological disasters. Fan Wuxian said to his father Fan Heng.

In the Leizhou Peninsula in Hainan, for example, groundwater resources were depleted within three years after the introduction of eucalyptus trees. There used to be a big spring in front of a village, before the rapid forest was planted, the spring water flowed endlessly all year round, warm in winter and cool in summer, and hundreds of acres of paddy fields in the village relied on this spring water. After planting the rapid forest, the flow is cut off in the first year, the spring flow for three months in the second year, and the whole spring flow in the third year. The villagers' wells are getting deeper and deeper, but the amount of water is getting smaller and smaller.

No matter how fertile the land was before, it is a dream to plant other crops after planting a kind of rapid forest. Acidification is also very severe.

"Many experts in China, driven by interests, do not have the slightest sense of honesty and justice." Fan Wuxian said to his father Fan Heng, "It is impossible for a high-level leader of the country to be an all-rounder, as for saying that a person can understand everything, it is nonsense!" As a high-level reliance, many experts in various industries are guided by interest groups to sell theories full of fraud and insider information, and the country is harmed by such experts. Another reason for this evil result is the GDP-only theory advocated by domestic officials at present. ”

Sufenglin - pulp - paper industry, this is an economic chain that can quickly drive the rise of GDP figures. If you can see results in a few years, and at the same time attract huge investment from international paper groups, how else can you build your own performance project so quickly?

It is no wonder that local officials will rush to introduce papermaking enterprises into their own side of the water and soil, and even Fan Wuxian has heard that in order to compete for a papermaking project of hundreds of thousands of tons, the two mayors have made a bet against each other, the winner takes the project, and the loser gets 20 million funds as a condition for exiting.

"Is it really that harmful to fast-growing forests? Why have I never heard of it? "Fan Heng obviously doesn't know much about the dangers of fast-growing forests.

About 60% of the country's supply of Chinese herbal medicine raw materials comes from Yunnan and Guangxi. In recent years, the supply of Chinese herbal medicine raw materials in these two places has decreased sharply, and the pharmaceutical industry, the Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment industry, as well as the major pharmacies of Chinese medicine, have to use more artificially grown Chinese herbal medicine raw materials, which is directly harmful to the reduction of efficacy and the soaring price of medicine.

Patches of native shrubs that have been cut down to retain water and soil are planted with single pine, eucalyptus, rubber and tea trees, resulting in compacted soil and poor soil water retention.

The forest area formed by the fast-growing eucalyptus, although it is lush and green from the plane down, but there is actually a dead silence below, the original primeval forest has all kinds of birds and beasts, birds and flowers, and now even the fields next to the fast-growing eucalyptus forest are growing a person-high weed, there are no more insects, no more frogs, and there is no spring murmuring in the past, and even the grass cannot grow under the fast-growing eucalyptus forest.

"Eucalyptus trees are domineering, there are no weeds around the trees, and the planted mountains can only be planted with eucalyptus trees, after two or three cycles, the mountains can only be abandoned, this is because the soil is insufficient, and the eucalyptus trees grow slowly, and it is not worth the investment, so the lease period is usually about 12 to 15 years. As for the smell of eucalyptus, I don't need to say much about it, of course, I don't mind planting it in the mountains. Fan Wuxian said to his father Fan Heng, "The eucalyptus forests in Hainan are everywhere. And the planting area is very large, there are many more than 10,000 acres, local farmers and local officials are short-sighted, will not consider ecological problems, especially in the western part of Hainan, planting eucalyptus has become the main way for farmers and local income generation, eucalyptus water absorption and fertilizer absorption ability is extremely strong, if the land planted with eucalyptus is not improved, almost no grass will grow in the future! ”

Fan Heng had inspected the forest vegetation in the southwest earlier, and felt that the phenomenon of barren mountains was very serious, and when he heard Fan Wuzhi say this, he realized that the original place that was not barren may not be reliable, and the area where the Sufeng forest was planted was more terrible than not planting trees, and he couldn't help but feel more worried in his heart.

But the so-called forestry experts, many have been bought by the paper industry giants, saying that there is no evidence that the planting of fast-growing eucalyptus will affect the environment, etc., which can not help but make people feel sad, in today's world, money can buy everything, let people speak with a clear conscience, serve a small number of interest groups, and make the masses of people suffer.

Eucalyptus trees have been introduced in many countries around the world, but in the early nineties, the World Bank stopped lending and assisting such projects because of the strong reaction of scientists to the World Bank's loan to fund eucalyptus planting.

Domestically, from the outset, in stark contrast to the enthusiasm of officials for the Sinar Mas APP project, some conscientious experts have expressed strong concerns that once the forest land is indeed occupied by a single tree species, it will pose an unimaginably severe challenge to biological diversity.

The effect of eucalyptus to maintain water and soil and the ability of self-renewal is very poor, can not rely on seeds to reproduce naturally, and has great rejection of native species in other places, is not friendly to the environment, large-scale continuous planting, can easily lead to poor land, native species attenuation, degradation and other serious ecological crises, the formation of green desertification, now New Zealand has begun to cut down all the eucalyptus forests that were introduced in a large area before.

"The current problem is no longer a paper ban that can be solved." When it comes to these things, even people like Fan Heng also feel a headache, "Local governments need to develop the economy, not necessarily for the sake of the people, but for the sake of the black gauze hat on their heads, and the steady development path that can only achieve results in more than ten or decades has no future in the eyes of local officials. ”

"It's not a mistake to want to be promoted, but to destroy the environment for your own selfishness, and to exchange your green shirt for a red robe at an irreparable price, is a crime that cannot be punished!" Fan Wuxi's view on this matter is very direct.

Although Fan Wuxian has always taken making money as his first priority, the things he does are all frank and unrestrained, even if there are some small conspiracies, the starting point is good, compared with these black sheep, it is countless times more noble. There are no pop-ups
