Chapter 1038 Development and the Environment and the Internet
Chu Yang walked to the microphone, faced the guests below who were still in a frenzy of excitement, and waved his hand to them with a smile.
"Hello everyone, this speech should have been delivered by Minister Pan. After all, the success of the Purification 2016 project today would not have been possible without the strong support of the state. But since the host has to say a few words, then I'll say a few words. ”
Chu Yang's words came out, and Minister Pan Jisen, who was standing behind him, immediately laughed kindly. At the same time, he also nodded secretly in his heart, secretly saying that although this young man is not very old, he is still very polite and understands the rules.
In fact, at the beginning, this project had nothing to do with the environmental protection department, and the state asked him to come and participate in the launching ceremony on behalf of the environmental protection department. However, people now open their mouths and give him a share of the credit, and this kind of mentality of merit and non-monopoly is very rare.
Minister Pan will not be arrogant to think that people are patting their own sycophants when they say this. After all, although he was involved in this matter relatively late, the cause and effect are still clear. There is no need for him to say more about the size of this young man, it was the prime minister who asked him to come here to attend the ceremony, and if he can let a leader of that level speak for him, people will care about the appreciation of his own minister?
Moreover, from beginning to end, this set of projects was designed and planned by this young man, and even the Chinese Academy of Sciences only played the role of an errand boy. It is also very rare to be proud of one's greatness and not to be arrogant.
Faintly, Minister Pan already admired this young man a little. After doing such an earth-shattering event, he can still maintain such a calm and calm mood. This mentality alone is very rare!
Chu Yang stood in front of the microphone, and he was also a little excited in his heart. In his opinion. I have only done a trivial thing, and I can once again be recognized by the will of this nation. This made me excited and moved. He secretly made up his mind in his heart that even if Leshen Island moved overseas, it would still be his second home. What he has gained and experienced here has long become an important and inseparable part of his life!
Chu Yang looked at everyone in the audience. He said slowly: "The reason why I want to do this project is also very simple, because I also live in Yanjing. Suffer from air pollution every day. Of course, I don't think that Yanjing or even Yanbei and other surrounding provinces suffer from environmental pollution. It is entirely to blame for economic development. ”
He said this. After a pause, looking at the crowd that gradually quieted down, he continued: "It cannot be denied that in the past few decades, our economy has adopted an extensive and brutal development method, and while achieving a high growth rate, it has also paid a huge environmental price, but everything has to be divided into two. Our ancestors had an idiom. It is called abandoning food due to choking, and many people now have arguments and opinions. In fact, it is a true portrayal of this idiom. They shout every day on the Internet, on meager newspapers, saying that our air pollution, water pollution, desertification, food safety and many other problems today are to blame on economic development, and then throw out an argument: we should ban this kind of development altogether, and it is better to return to agricultural civilization. There are also some people who spend their days reminiscing about the 'goodness' of decades ago, saying that the sky was blue, the water was clear, and people did not have to worry about pesticides when they ate things, etc., which means that all that we have achieved today and all this development is wrong. This statement, in my opinion, is simply ridiculous! ”
When Chu Yang said this, there were already many reporters below who were busy. At first, they thought that Chu Yang was just going to say some regular words of gratitude, but they didn't expect him to talk about the sensitive issue of development and the environment. You know, although this issue is controversial on the Internet, it has always been a problem without a result. On such an occasion, to talk about such an issue, if it is not appropriate, you will send yourself in. This young tech madman really dares to say it.
Luo Hongmei looked at Chu Yang with some concern, she wanted to rush over and tell Chu Yang that this issue could not be discussed here. It's a pity that it's a live broadcast now, Chu Yang is standing in front and talking, what she wants to do now is in vain.
When Chu Yang said this, he glanced at the people in the audience, paused and continued: "Any form of development process will encounter such and such problems. When it comes to environmental pollution, the developed countries and regions in the world, such as Europe, Europe and island countries, have also faced such problems when they have experienced industrialization, including environmental problems, income disparities, medical and education problems, etc., and they have also spent decades or even hundreds of years to solve these problems. And what about our country? It has been more than sixty years since the founding of the People's Republic of China. But when it comes to the time for real economic development, it is only more than 30 years. In the past few decades, we have solved the problem of feeding more than one billion people, built two bombs and one satellite, hosted the Olympic Games, and become the world's second largest economy. All these achievements, if any country in the world can achieve them in such a short period of time? Of course, we are now facing some problems brought about by rapid development, but we must be soberly aware that these problems are temporary, and they are not the main ones compared with the achievements brought about by development. The development of economy and science and technology will only make our lives better and better, not worse, and Purification 2016 is the most obvious example! ”
After Chu Yang's words were finished, the audience was silent for a moment, and then there was immediately thunderous applause.
Minister Pan applauded and nodded slightly at Chu Yang. He was now more and more surprised by the young man. At first, he thought that Chu Yang was just a technician, but he didn't expect that he also had such a high level of consciousness and understanding in politics. The words just now, these truths, are also available on the Internet and in newspapers, and many people know about them, but just now he made an impromptu speech, and it is really rare to be able to make this point so clear in such a short period of time!
In the audience, Luo Hongmei also applauded Chu Yang vigorously, and at the same time, she was secretly relieved in her heart. Originally, she was still worried that Chu Yang would be on such an occasion. Say something like "cultivating the truth", and that will be terrible. It would have been a great thing, but if it was hung up with this. It is estimated that good things will become bad things. Fortunately, his speech just now is very good, not only can not find a single fault, full of positive energy, but also faintly in line with the current central policy. It is estimated that such a speech will be seen by the country's leaders and will be appreciated. I can't tell that this guy is young. Political consciousness is quite high.
What Luo Hongmei didn't know was that this guy had also been a county leader in a county for two years. In that position, even if you don't want to get into these political theories. The daily meetings and document bombardment also made you figure it out. Besides, Chu Yang is not a very stupid person, he only needs to look at these truths at a glance. You will know if it's true or not. What he just said. In fact, it's what you think in your heart, not because you want to please anyone. When he reached his kind of cultivation, he didn't have to deliberately please anyone.
That's just the way it is. The achievements of China's development in the past few decades cannot be erased no matter what kind of rumors are used. Isn't it progress that a country built on the foundation of poverty and whiteness can reach such a level in a few decades? Isn't that something to be affirmed?
As for all those issues, including environmental issues. Educational issues, medical issues. In fact, the problems of income distribution, land requisition, and so on are all inevitable products that arise in the process of development. When people don't even have enough to eat, no one pays attention to these issues because everyone is more or less the same. But when your stomach is full, and you can eat well, you can not only eat well, but also dress well, live well, and play well. In such a situation, some problems arise. From another point of view, the emergence of these problems is precisely a manifestation of social progress. This shows that people's living standards have not only improved, but also their overall cultural quality and way of thinking are also improving, and they are able to put forward their own demands and express their own demands. This is an important sign of the progress of a society towards a democratic civilization.
As for many people who feel that every day is bad news, it is unfair, and even feel that they are living in "dire straits", this is not the case, but the nature of the Internet is a "delusion" brought to people.
Since the day the Internet was born, it has determined this extremely free way of information interaction, which will inevitably lead to the pluralism and freedom of thinking. The principle pursued by the press that "a dog bites a man is not news, but a man bites a dog is news" has been thoroughly embodied in the online world.
The Internet has captured people's psychological needs for curiosity and excitement, so most of the news reported every day is extremely explosive and impactful, and these news are rarely positive, and most of them are negative. For example, the problem of official corruption, the problem of urban management beating, the problem of celebrity drug abuse, etc., the Internet selectively pushes these news to us according to its own characteristics, and avoids talking about those positive and positive news that seems to be relatively plain. Under such a dominant thinking, it is natural to create an illusion for those who regularly use the Internet: this society is too chaotic, and there are so many problems in this country.
In fact, if you turn off the Internet and look at your own life and look around you, most people will find that they are not living as badly as they imagined.
Another fact that cannot be ignored is that the product of the Internet, which was originally a product of Bolai, developed much earlier in foreign countries than in China. In foreign countries, especially in the United States, the birthplace of the Internet, we are too familiar with it and how we use it. Our Internet, to this day, still depends on the root server of the United States, which makes our Internet fundamentally subject to human control. With the increasing number of netizens in China, the cultural aggression and cultural warfare carried out by foreign hostile forces through online propaganda are also becoming more and more severe. A large part of the negative news and news we see every day is created by these forces or their spokespersons in China. Of course, it is not that these news are fake, but they grasp some points in these news that are not conducive to the harmony and stability of our country, and then publicize them and use this similar method of taking them out of context to selectively let ordinary netizens accept the news they want to accept. In the long run, it will naturally give those who often watch the news on the Internet some illusions, such as feeling that the country's problems have reached an unsolvable level, such as the democracy and freedom of foreign countries, especially the United States, are like paradise and so on. In the field of Internet propaganda, we are far from lagging behind.
Chu Yang is a cultivator, and when he looks at these issues, he can look at them from an outsider's perspective, so he can see these issues very clearly. In his opinion, these are some small tricks, small means. The most fundamental point is to quote Liu Cixin, a famous Chinese science fiction writer, in his masterpiece "The Three-Body Problem" about the two axioms of cosmic sociology. 2. Civilization continues to grow and expand, but the total amount of matter in the universe remains the same. The resources on earth are finite, and if you use more, I will use less. And if you want to survive, I also want to survive, this need is opposed to each other, it is a zero-sum game, and the contradictions are irreconcilable. In the absence of a powerful force to complete the great unification of the earth's civilization, the combination of countries, nations, religions, and groups will inevitably break out into various conflicts. The root cause of the culture war is still this war about survival resources!
From the perspective of the people of the United States, I only have more than 200 million people, while you have more than a billion people in China. I want to drive a car, you want to drive a car, I want to live in a building, you want to live in a building, I want to enjoy a high level of social welfare, you also want to enjoy a high level of social welfare, how can this work? There are so few resources on the earth, how can there be enough for so many people? It's better if I drive the car and you ride the bike; I live in a luxurious villa, and you live in an ordinary house or even a slum, I enjoy high welfare, and these high benefits are paid by you, I develop high technology, you come to work for me, do some unskilled work, this is the most reasonable state.
However, the gradually developing China will inevitably have its own interests and demands, and the pursuit of a better life and development is the internal motivation and instinct of a civilization. Over the years, China has developed rapidly, fast enough to make the United States and some other developed countries afraid. Because in their opinion, if Huaxia continues to develop at this speed, it won't be long before it will be like them or even surpass them. And all along, they have enjoyed all kinds of "benefits" brought by technological and military advancement. For example, with a little outdated technology, you can exchange a large amount of cheap labor and production materials in China. For example, it is the law that they have always pursued to turn the high welfare of the domestic people into a third country through foreign debt, and once they can't afford to pay it back, they will manipulate the dollar exchange rate to make the currencies of these countries appreciate or value.
Beihai Park, at the launching ceremony, the warm applause lasted for a long time.
Chu Yang stood on the stage, facing the excited crowd, and said slowly but firmly: "The Purification 2016 project is just the beginning. In the future, Huayin Technology will be committed to the development of science and technology in all civilian fields, and is committed to making our lives better and the country more prosperous. I believe that it will not be long before the rise of China will no longer become a propaganda slogan in the news and on the Internet, but will become a fact! ”
In a thunderous applause, Chu Yang ended his speech, and at the same time said hello to several leaders behind him, and walked off the stage.
"Well, how did he go? Hurry, chase after it! A group of reporters were still applauding there, and seeing that Chu Yang was actually gone, they immediately chased them out one by one.
Just kidding, how about just letting him go? What I just said was exciting, but it didn't say anything substantial. Now they, like the national audience, have a stomach full of questions about this system, and they can't let him go!
In the direction where Chu Yang left, all the media reporters chased after him like a swarm! (To be continued......)
