Zhou Xiao knew what the director of the department was trying to express.

As the capital of Xia Country, if the air is like this every winter, if the number of lung cancer patients is gradually increasing every year, it will be a problem to continue like this.

Zhou Xiao said very humbly: "Just like what the director of the department said just now, polluted air will not drift in just because you are Yanjing, the air quality in the north is poor, as long as there is a cold air, the air quality in the south will also become very poor." Who is short of food and who is short of clothes in this era? What the people crave most is a good ecology and a good environment.

The air environment to be treated must not only start from a certain city, but should be considered as a whole country, not only to consider automobile exhaust pollution, but also to consider energy pollution. I would be very happy to discuss this issue with experts and scholars in Yenching. ”

With Zhou Xiao's words, the director of the department was relieved.

He was Zhou Xiao said: "Mr. Zhou, today you go back to the hotel to rest for a day, every afternoon the North Energy Group President Xu came to visit, I arranged a symposium for you, the day after tomorrow you will attend the award ceremony of the highest science and technology award in the summer country." If you have any suggestions or comments about this arrangement, you can give me any suggestions. ”

Zhou Xiao said with a smile: "Guests are as you like, this time we came to Yanjing, but there is no plan to arrange, listen to the arrangement of the director of the department, I have a small request." ”

Zhou Xiao looked at Mo Li and Wang Yulan, "Yanjing is a famous historical and cultural city, and it is also the ancient capital of the Five Dynasties. ”

Zhou Xiao's arrangement was added temporarily, although it is said that the origin group is developing very well now, whether it is Wang Yulan or Mo Li, it is not bad for travel money.

Money is there, but there is no time.

And when I go out to travel and go out with my colleagues in the company, the experience is completely different.

Sure enough, when Zhou Xiao said this arrangement, Wang Yulan and Mo Li were very happy.

For the two of them, it is one thing to go out to travel, and it is another thing to go out to travel with Zhou Xiao to blackmail Zhou Xiao.

Of course, the latter can make people more pleasant.

The organizing committee was very thoughtful, and the accommodation arranged for Zhou Xiao and his party was the state guesthouse.

The location is excellent, and the state guesthouse is full of monuments and priceless artifacts from hundreds of years ago.

Zhou Xiao even joked to Wang Yulan and others: "The place where we slept at night was also slept by Emperor Qianlong hundreds of years ago." ”

Wang Yulan didn't think the last one was a joke: "Come on, don't scare me!" ”

Zhou Xiao laughed, turned his head to the director of the department and said, "Director of the department, let's change the place of residence tomorrow." ”

The director hurriedly said: "The hotel arranged tomorrow is Shangri-La Hotel. ”

In the conference room of the State Guesthouse early the next morning, the staff of the North Energy Group had already made preparations for the meeting.

At six o'clock in the morning, Mr. Xu and his entourage from North Energy Group arrived at the hotel.

They sat in the conference room early to make final preparations for the upcoming meeting with Zhou Xiao.

For this meeting, the North Energy Group prepared for half a month and also brought a lot of technical information.

These data include the energy consumption of Xia in the past five years, as well as the ratio of energy consumption to the environment.

There is also the amount of oil and gas imported from overseas by Xia Guo over the years.

The energy issue is not only an environmental issue, but also a national security issue.

If the technology of the origin group can completely solve the energy problem of Xia Kingdom, then the development of Xia Kingdom will be a different situation.

At eight o'clock in the morning, after having breakfast on the first floor of the hotel, Zhou Xiao and others came to the conference hall under the guidance of the staff.

Mr. Xu waited for Zhou Xiao early at the door, and after seeing Zhou Xiao, he hurriedly greeted him.

"Hello Mr. Zhou, hello!" Mr. Xu's smile was piled up on his face.

"Hello Mr. Xu, hello, long admiration of the name, long admiration of the name!"

In fact, Zhou Xiao only learned yesterday that the boss of the Northern Energy Group is called Xu Dongyang, let alone Jiuyang.

But between people, true and false, false and true, not playing with technology.

Xu Dongyang is wearing a very formal today, wearing a straight suit and shiny leather shoes.

And what about Zhou Xiao?

Zhou Xiao rarely wears formal clothes, but wears a mountaineering suit and sneakers.

It's not that Zhou Xiao is disrespectful to Xu Dongyang, but that Zhou Xiao thinks that many things can't be discussed at the conference table.

Zhou Xiao's dress did not make Xu Dongyang feel disgusted, but made him feel particularly cordial.

After all, formal wear can make people feel distant.

Xu Dongyang hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhou, please come in, please come in!" ”

Zhou Xiao looked at the conference room, "Let's not sit and talk today, I see that the weather outside is good, if Mr. Xu doesn't mind let's go to the Great Wall." ”

Zhou Xiao's words made Xu Dongyang a little stunned.

But today's meeting was originally based on Zhou Xiao, Xu Dongyang immediately changed the plan, he said with a smile: "I usually have a hobby of mountaineering, and when the weather is good on weekends, I will go out with my friends to climb the mountain, since Mr. Zhou also has such a hobby, I will accompany Mr. Zhou to the Great Wall to see today." ”

Xu Dongyang said this, and immediately arranged for the assistant to report the information and go out with him.

Xu Dongyang actually feels that this is a good opportunity, and in informal settings, the distance between people will actually be closer.

Two strangers can never be friends in a conference room, but at a dinner table in an entertainment venue, it is possible.

It is a rare warm sunny day in winter, and the scenery of the Great Wall is particularly majestic.

The two climbed high and looked into the distance to see the winter scenery of Yanjing.

Inside and outside the Great Wall, it is all barren.

Along the way, Xu Dongyang introduced to Zhou Xiao the operation of Northern Energy Group in recent years and some of his own views.

Xu Dongyang said: "Xia Guo has been a global leader in the application and technology of electric energy, and we have formulated some standards for the use of UHV power equipment in European and American countries. ”

"But the most troublesome thing right now is that environmental protection and energy use are two paradoxes, especially in the power sector. So far, more than 70% of Xia's electricity comes from thermal power, and 24% comes from hydropower, which is mainly distributed in the western and central regions of Xia. Nuclear power is only 2.4 percent, and the new energy, wind and photovoltaic industries are even less than 1 percent. ”

Xu Xiangdong said with a wry smile: "What is thermal power? Our thermal power is to generate electricity from coal! This winter, the people on the one hand demand that the air quality should be good, there can be no haze, on the other hand, we have to ask our heating to keep up, can not stop the supply and can not increase the price, it is difficult to balance the two! ”

Xu Xiangdong couldn't help but compare Yanjing with Jiangcheng, "Jiangcheng is now developing a new type of bioenergy represented by ionizing bacteria, which is actually worth our reference!" ”
