Two days before New Year's Day 2021, the "West Line Tunnel Water Diversion Project" was officially completed.

The project adopts new technologies such as laser, nano encroachment, and intelligent engineering robots to solve the problems of plateau construction and mountainside tunnels, and opens up the tunnels of the originally difficult mountains with high efficiency and low cost, and successfully introduces fresh water from the rivers such as the Brahmaputra River, the Nu River and the Canglan River, making the northwest and other areas where water is scarce become a huge granary and refuge base for Xinhua.

The "Oriental Star" space city was also officially completed at the beginning of the new year, and space factories such as pharmaceuticals and alloy materials were put into operation and began to accept tourists to sign up for visits.

The interior area of the space city is 7.21 square kilometers, which can accommodate more than 50,000 space residents, mainly divided into port area, scientific research area, manufacturing area and tourist living area, and can receive more than 4,000 tourists every day.

Tourists take the space shuttle and arrive at the space city from the ground, because it has artificial gravity and perfect medical facilities, so except for a few patients, there are no physical requirements for tourists, whether it is children or the elderly, they can go to space to play.

And the price of space tourism is also after the completion of the space city, there has been a real "jumping" like a price reduction, directly from tens of millions to hundreds of thousands, and with the peak fall, this price will be reduced, with the current average salary level of Xinhuaguo a year, ordinary people who have more money can also realize their space dreams.

The construction of such a huge space city would have been unimaginable a few years ago, and the entire project used nearly 100,000 engineering robots to work 24 hours a day.

Tens of millions of tons of various resources were mined from the moon for the construction of the space city. Every day, hundreds of spaceships are loaded with building materials and travel back and forth between Space City, Earth and the Moon.

In the space of two years, there have been crises on the planet. Not only did it not slow down the construction of the space city, but it was greatly accelerated, and Yanhuang Group tilted all resources to ensure the progress of the project.

On New Year's Day, the government of Xinhua announced to the world that it would officially abolish the circulation and issuance of the East Hong Kong dollar, the treasure island currency and the Australian city currency in China, and use the renminbi uniformly throughout the country. Nationals or foreign companies holding the above currencies can exchange RMB of the same value at major banks at the exchange rate of the day before May 1.

As of May 1, these currencies will no longer be used in circulation.

When the time comes. Xinhua will put an end to the embarrassing situation of several currencies in one country, and at the same time, the right to issue currency will be completely withdrawn into the hands of the central government, and no foreign bank will have the right to issue Xinhua currency.

The currency reform was carried out very smoothly, and there was little opposition. The biggest reason for this. It is because Donggang, Aocheng and Baodao are all located on the coast, and their economy and population have suffered heavy losses in the sea monster crisis, and the currency has been repeatedly depreciated, which has made the people in the three places miserable and lost confidence.

However, the renminbi is very strong, and it is widely held by the people in the three places during this crisis.

On New Year's Day this year, due to the impact of the sea monster crisis and the vampire plague, countries are facing a lot of messes such as economic regression, army losses, population migration, and reconstruction of disaster areas. The festive atmosphere is much quieter than in previous years.

But the new year still brings new hope to the world.

The crisis and the catastrophe have subsided. Only a few remnants of monsters remained in some remote areas, and countries began to rebuild their homes and recuperate.

After the resumption of sea transportation, products began to circulate, and the economies of various countries had hope of getting out of the predicament.

Those who fled inland have also returned to the coastal cities, and people are doing everything in their power to restore their lives to the way they once were.

The situation in Xinhua and Hualong is much better, whether it is the sea monster crisis or the vampire plague, it has not really affected the two countries, with the help of the progress of new technology and the development of Yan Huangxing, the economic development of the two countries has even been improved.

On today's earth, Xinhua is a dominant country, and powerful countries such as Lijian, Rakshasa and Wa, Tianzhu, Britain, France and Germany have all suffered huge losses in several disasters, and the country's comprehensive strength has plummeted.

In addition to controlling several key areas in Southeast Asia, Hualong has never interfered in international affairs, but has only made a fortune quietly.

The two countries are changing with each passing day, various maglev civilian flying cars have begun to be listed, and the transportation system has developed to a broader space; All kinds of terminal diseases have been overcome one by one, and the medical system has been reformed in the direction of people-oriented; New varieties of crops and livestock have been popularized in various localities, and the income of farmers has grown much faster than that of urban dwellers in the past two years. The high-tech industries of the two countries are developing rapidly, exceeding the other countries combined.

It can be said that the new technological changes launched by Ye Quan have truly benefited everyone.

Of course, the happiest group must be the employees of Yanhuang Group, this year because of the development of Yanhuang Star, the group's employees have increased by more than one million, and the total year-end bonus has only increased by 30% compared with last year.

But happiness is all comparative.

How not to feel happy when I see others lose their homes, be forcibly displaced, lose their jobs, and have no income in this global crisis, while their own income and living standards have not declined, and they can still get hundreds of thousands of yuan in year-end bonuses.

As a result, under the call of the group, the Orient Fund and other charities received a total of more than 300 billion yuan in donations from the group's employees during the New Year's year-end bonus, most of which will be used for post-disaster reconstruction work in the severely affected areas of the world.

February 12 is the Spring Festival of the Chinese lunar calendar, when the first rays of sunlight on the earth ushered in, it was still night on the Yanhuang Star, and there were still more than ten hours before dawn.

This is the second Spring Festival in the history of Yanhuangxing.

As early as October 2018, the No. 9 scientific expedition spacecraft sent by Ye Quan discovered Yanhuang Star, but at that time, there were only robots and cyborgs on the spacecraft.

It wasn't until June of the following year that the First Starfleet carried the first human explorers and officially set foot on the land of Yanhuang.

The first and second batch of immigrants were all secretly selected in Hualong and Xinhua countries, except for a very small number of scientists, the proportion of Chinese in Yan Huangxing accounted for 99%.

Such a proportion of the population, naturally the Chinese nation's festivals are the most lively, the official implementation of the holiday policy, the same Chinese festivals shall prevail, such as the Spring Festival, Lantern Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Qixi Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival and Chongyang Festival and other traditional festivals will be closed, and Christmas, Easter, etc. can only be sorry.

Even though you are on this distant planet and cannot be reunited with your family, everyone still attaches great importance to the Spring Festival, and various celebrations are held at various settlement bases.

Yanhuang Group also came forward to organize the first Yanhuang Star Spring Festival Gala.

The two planets are now so connected that they are able to communicate and connect to the Internet, but only with a delay of a few seconds.

Among the immigrants, there are elites from all walks of life, but there are very few people engaged in the entertainment industry, and the whole night program is also improvised by more than a dozen bases.

But because the style of the party is simple and close to the people, it can move people's hearts more, and there are unique mounts and cute pets on Yanhuang Star to help, and the ratings are almost catching up with CCTV's Spring Festival Gala, and the praise rate is even more second.
