Water conservancy experts from Shanghai Jiao Tong University were invited to ask for advice. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Based on the available information, they told Yang Chao that Sichuan's water transportation was mainly stuck in the Three Gorges area.

There is no shortage of water in Sichuan, as the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, the water of the entire Yangtze River flows out of Sichuan, so the amount of water is absolutely sufficient, but the problem is that it is too sufficient.

The amount of water is sufficient, but the waterway is too narrow, from Qutang Gorge, Wu Gorge to Xiling Gorge, these canyons are only more than 200 kilometers, but the cliffs on both sides of the bank are numerous, the ancients said that "the cliffs of the Jiajiang River are very cramped", the river width has shrunk to 100 meters in this generation, and some places are even only a few tens of meters, compared to the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, you can imagine how narrow it is here, the amount of water is sufficient, the waterway is narrow, and the result can only be that the water flows rapidly, where is Kuimen, dozens of meters wide, known as the water that locks the whole Sichuan, it is very imposing in the literati's pen, But it also locked up the livelihood of Sichuan people.

Water conservancy experts told Yang Chao that there are more than 1,000 dangerous shoals in the Three Gorges area, and in many places, even large steamers cannot pass, and they must be dragged by people on the shore, so tens of thousands of Sichuan River slendermen are fed.

But it also makes tens of millions of Sichuan people poor, and the big ships can't hit anywhere, even the 1,000-ton ships can't pass, and the small boats of more than 10 tons and 100 tons still need to be towed, so you can imagine how much the cost has increased.

Water conservancy experts told Yang Chao that the only way to clean the channel in depth is to clean it deeply, but most of the two walls of the Three Gorges are rocky walls, and it is almost impossible to widen them, so the channel can only be deepened according to the terrain, so that the drop becomes gentle, thereby reducing the speed of the water.

Yang Chao asked: After in-depth consolidation, can the 1,000-ton steamers run on the Yangtze River, and if the ships of more than 1,000 tons can pass, the cargo capacity can be increased to 10,000 tons by forming a fleet of flat-bottomed tugboats, and this will also solve the Three Gorges dilemma. There is no need to risk building the Three Gorges.

However, the water conservancy experts did not dare to pack tickets, only saying that the information was insufficient and could not make judgments, so Yang Chao invited them to form an inspection team. Let's take a detailed look at the water conservancy situation of the three rivers.

If the Sichuan problem can be solved, an economic center will rise.

At this point, Yang Chao believes that he has completed a layout for China's economy, and it is likely to directly determine the economic map of China's economy in the next half century.

Northeast China is the center of gravity of industry and agriculture, with abundant iron and steel industry, food processing and agricultural products. Shandong will remain an industrial center, and will slowly withdraw from the light textile industry and accelerate the promotion of the chemical industry.

Shanghai is a unique economic center where finance, industry and trade go hand in hand.

Guangdong will build a shipbuilding and shipping industry, as well as a petrochemical base.

It will be the three major economic centers along the coast.

The rest of the region has to develop around these centers.

For example, Jiangsu and Zhejiang rely on Shanghai, and the silk weaving industry and textile industry can still develop. Guangdong can radiate to Guangxi, Hunan, Fujian and Jiangxi provinces. Shandong affects the Bohai Bay as well as Henan and northern Jiangsu.

The coastal economic belt is linked through the Beijing-Guangzhou Railway and large and small seaports along the coast, and the development is almost a matter of course.

Expanded inland to Shanxi to build a power industry base; Yunnan Hydropower Base; Wuhan can also rely on electricity and water transportation to continue its development. Sichuan's traffic dilemma is trying its best to solve it.

In this way, the national economic environment can not be greatly improved in the region, only the northwest inland region, relying on the railway can not let these provinces compete with the coast, the natural cost will squeeze the development potential of these areas, 17% of the transportation cost means that when the coastal can get 10% of the profit, the inland provinces can only lose money to operate.

Why Shaanxi, where Xi'an is located, can't develop in the 21st century, is that it is too deep inland, and the state is looking for Xi'an to face the northwest. Expand to Central Asia through the Silk Road, but now that Central Asia is cut off by Soviet Russia, it is almost impossible to expand, so Yang Chao has no good way. I can only hope that these inland areas will not be too far behind for the time being.

Yang Chao's current capacity can only be to build a Bohai Bay, a Yangtze River Delta, a Pearl River Delta, and an economic belt along the Yangtze River. The northwest region, which cannot be radiated by these economic centers, can only be said to be temporarily aggrieved.

Thinking that his layout is likely to make the northwest region fall behind the eastern region in the next half century, Yang Chao is still a little sad in his heart.

But the overall situation is important, this economic territory, is the most efficient layout, the competition between countries can be fair or unfair, win, become a developed country, even subsidies and money, lose to South American countries like half dead, want to do anything in vain.

Therefore, despite his reluctance, Yang Chao still has to vigorously promote these plans.

But to implement these plans, it will not happen overnight, and Yang Chao must maintain his influence over state power.

At the very least, it has to be a president like Mi Qing who is willing to listen to Yang Chao's suggestion, and Pan Xun, who is too autonomous and independent, and thinks that he is more correct, is not suitable for leading the country at this time.

But the problem is that Pan Xun is actively planning to run for president, according to the current situation, he is very likely to defeat Mi Qing again and be successfully elected as the next president, which will be his third term, which has already damaged the political ecology a bit.

Washington has set an example for the United States for two terms, and no previous president of the United States has tried to serve a second term, and has always retired from politics after serving two terms; Yang Chao also wanted to set a model in China, but unfortunately he only served as interim president for more than a year, and Pan Xun and others in the back planned to follow suit.

This is too difficult to do, Yang Chao decided to have a good talk with Pan Xun, and persuade him to endure for one term, or let him directly give up the election and directly pass the system that the president cannot serve more than two terms.

As for Mi Qing, she was indeed too unlucky, her first time as president encountered the post-war economic crisis, and the second time she became president, she encountered the worst economic crisis in human history.

This coincidence made Pan Xun take advantage of, according to the creation of an ominous superstition of women in power, the Chinese in this era are still very superstitious, even if the popularity of education has been very high, but there are still people who believe in ghosts and gods, after all, the education community has not adopted atheistic materialist education, and does not talk about ghosts and gods as Kong Laoer's attitude of being close to ghosts and gods.

Students do receive science education, but their parents maintain the religious tradition of burning incense in temples in the past.

Therefore, most people believe that the big crisis is because Mi Qing is in power, and Si Chen has a disaster that hurts the sky and brings about it, although most people sympathize with Mi Qing is a great president who loves the people, but most people think that Mi Qing should not be the president, and for the sake of the country, a man must come out to be the president, so as to calm the anger of the sky and restore the normalcy of heaven and earth.

This kind of superstition not only threatens Mi Qing, but also threatens Yang Chao's layout for the future, he must stop it, Yang Chao first chose to have a gentleman's meeting with Pan Xun, it is best to convince him, and if he can't convince him, he can only think of other ways.
