The general's secretary Lu Junlin came to Luo Jia and brought the authorities' ardent hope for the development of the western region, but what Lu Junlin never expected was that the plan for the Brahmaputra River that Luo Jia said in passing at the press conference was actually just a plan B of Xingchen Technology, and their plan A was to use controlled nuclear fusion to distill seawater and irrigate the western region.

Some people may say that distilled water does not support plants, which is a typical false proposition, purified water is definitely more difficult than reconstituted water, and the core of this plan is the evaporation of water and the rebuilding of complete ecosystems after creating a large number of surface water systems.

Even if you plant a dense forest in the desert, without precipitation and ecological support, it is not possible to preserve, as we all know, Lop Nur was not a desert in the past, and it used to be rich in water and grass, but only in the later period because of the deterioration of the environment and ecosystem, it changed from green grass to thousands of miles of yellow sand.

"He wants to turn 400,000 square kilometers of the Tarim Basin into an inner lake!?"

"Our entire country is only 9.6 million square kilometers!"

"Lake Baikal, the largest lake in the world, is only 31,500 square kilometers!"

"Crazy, Luo Jia must be crazy!"

In an indescribable conference room, when Secretary Lu finished his report, the group of old men were dumbfounded, as if they had heard something extremely incredible.

I have long known that Xingchen Technology has a slogan that if you don't go crazy, you can't live, but I never thought that they had gone crazy to this extent, completely transforming the west and creating a water town in the south of the Yangtze River of millions of square kilometers, this proposal far exceeded the most optimistic expectations of the authorities.

"That's right." Lu Junlin stood on the stage, heroic, and gave a positive answer, "Luo Jia told me that this will be a great attempt of great significance, by artificially creating giant lakes, to transform the climate of the entire west, millions of square kilometers of land, it is very difficult to rely on afforestation, but if the climate changes, let the west naturally grow forests and grasslands, it is the most wonderful thing." ”

Seems to make some sense...

After listening to Lu Junlin's words, the bigwigs couldn't help but nod their heads, feeling that Luo Jia was crazy and bold.

However, they didn't know that the reason why Luo Jia dared to do this was because of the great plant civilization behind him, his friend Lan Yu in the stars, mistakenly thought that Luo Jia was the legendary top professional and navigator, so he admired Luo Jia's five-body throw, and the resources of Lan Yu and the plant clan were the confidence for Luo Jia to dare to implement this huge plan.

At this moment, the general was sitting in the back row, how he wanted to stand up and vouch for Luo Jia's plan, but life experience told him that he couldn't do this.

The more Luo Jia is in the limelight, the fewer opportunities he has to meet with the general, and even the phone calls have become fewer, most of the time it is conveyed back and forth by the secretary Lu Junlin, all to avoid suspicion.

There is a kind of friendship that is not shown to others, but the more critical the moment, the more the real chapter is seen, and this is the case with the general and Luo Jia.

"Environmental experts have warned us that if we wantonly modify the environment, it may bring unexpected results, what does Luo Jia think about this?" An old man asked with a frown.

Lu Junlin raised his chin with a smile, "Luo Jia said, fuck the expert." ”

Puff~

Several bigwigs at the scene couldn't hold back for a while, and laughed out loud, such a foul language is indeed like Luo Jia's style.

Lu Junlin recalled what Luo Jia said to him, and said: "Since 1990, due to China's crazy afforestation, the forest coverage rate has increased rapidly, and as of 2018, China's new forest area is equivalent to a quarter of the Amazon rainforest!" We have even almost wiped out one of the eight major deserts, the Mu Us Desert with a total area of 42,200 square kilometers! ”

"Netizens are very keen to plant trees in Ali's Ant Forest, but most people don't know that the Ant Forest project actually only accounts for one-third of China's plan to return farmland to forest! The national team is working on a project that is so strong that ordinary people simply can't imagine it. ”

"What do the so-called experts say after all we have paid? On September 5, 2019, the front page of the official website of Nature magazine questioned China's greening achievements, claiming that excessive afforestation could lead to deep environmental disasters, such as the depletion of the groundwater cycle. ”

"This world is really magical, in the past, desertification was so serious and there was nothing to do, when we turned the desert into a forest, all kinds of worries and doubts followed, so Luo Jia's advice is, don't care about any experts, the earth will not be turned upside down because we planted a few trees, in the history of the earth, carbon dioxide concentrations are dozens of times higher than now, not to mention ice ages and extremely hot periods."

"It's not a question of whether we want to transform the earth, but that human beings have to transform the earth in order to survive, otherwise there will be another glacial period, or carbon dioxide will rise more than ten times, and we will be extinct by nature like dinosaurs!"

Call~

Listening to Lu Junlin's conveyance to Luo Jia's opinion, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, compared to the so-called experts, Luo Jia said that the transformation of the earth is not an option, but an inevitability, because if the earth is not transformed, human beings will become extinct like dinosaurs sooner or later.

Do you think that nature must be the wind and snow, spring and autumn?

Less naïve!

Don't forget that nature also has a tyrannical and crazy side!

In this world, there are some things you don't have to choose at all, such as the stars and the sea, if human beings want to develop, they will inevitably go to space, such as genetic engineering, and if life science wants to develop, it must involve genetic modification.

Don't think that the world is big, there will be a lot of choices, it's not like that at all, don't study hard, and want to get ahead in the future? How can it be!

Lu Junlin stood on the stage, looked around at this important conference room, and saw that the eyes of the bigwigs gradually became firm, which seemed to be Luo Jia's inevitable future, which made the bigwigs feel a sense of urgency.

"Although we have done a lot of work in afforestation, as of 2018, the forest coverage rate in China is only 2166 percent, which is obviously not enough."

After organizing the language, Lu Junlin continued to say in a deep voice: "Canada is 44 percent, Sweden is 54 percent, Norway is 60 percent, and our neighbor neon has a forest coverage rate of 67 percent, compared to us, we are still far behind. ”

"In addition, Luo Jia also mentioned agricultural security, 1.4 billion people not only have to eat well, but also eat well in the future, eat nutritious, which requires more land that can be cultivated, the pattern of hegemony struggle does not change for a day, we must not be naïve to put agricultural security, hope for the West, after all, if you can't eat, you will die, Britain, France, Germany, the United States and Japan, as long as it is a great power, there is no one who is not an agricultural power."

Lu Junlin said a lot more, he felt that the high-level had been persuaded by himself, this was actually Luo Jia's credit, he just relayed what Luo Jia said to him in this conference room.

"So, when can Xingchen Technology start the western development plan?" An old man with gray temples asked in a serious tone.

"Soon, after the controlled fusion technology is put on the market, all the technical reserves needed for the large-scale development of the western region will be ready." Lu Junlin replied.

……

Chengdu, a famous time-honored hot pot restaurant.

"From a health point of view, I don't recommend hot pot, especially the spicy pot bottom with a layer of butter, the fat intake is definitely exceeded." An Ran patted his belly full of food and drink, and said unsatisfied: "But there is no way, who made me a Sichuan person, and the hot pot is so delicious, Lao Xie, it is rare for you to invite us to eat hot pot, it seems that the nuclear fusion project is going more smoothly than expected." ”

Dr. Xie Tian smiled heartily and nodded vigorously, as a famous workaholic of Xingchen Technology, Luo Jia and An Ran just got off the bus, and they were pulled by Dr. Xie Tian to eat hot pot, which is definitely an extraordinary scene, indicating that Xie Tian's mental state at the moment is very relaxed.

"Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission." Dr. Xie Tian sighed and said, "It was originally expected to be the end of November, but now it is only mid-September, and we have completed most of the technical tests, and we can hand over to the company around the National Day." ”

Luo Jia was overjoyed, "It's really you, the brothers in charge of Project No. 2, if they know about this, they will definitely be crazy with joy!" And I just discussed with the national team that I am preparing to start the western transformation project, and I also need the support of fusion reactors. ”

Hey~

Thank God is not good at words, smiled and drank half a glass of cold beer, behind the fortunate mission, how much sweat the nuclear fusion project team has paid, probably only they know it.

Why is the Tech Road called Climbing the Tech Tree?

Because different technologies are intertwined and integrated with each other, once the lack of key technologies will lead to the difficult delivery of large projects that the company has been planning for a long time.

Let's take the No. 2 project as an example, in Xingchen Technology, all projects with numbers, needless to say, must be of great significance, and there is no one before.

Project 1 is a space elevator built on Weigu Island, Project Zero is a giant synchronous orbit space station, and Project 2 is a starship.

Unlike the previous space shuttles or lunar landing vehicles, Starship is a real large-scale intergalactic vehicle, although the space elevator and synchronous orbital station can easily transport earth materials into space, but if you want to cross the stars, transport the base module to Mars, and transport the helium-3 mined on the moon back to Earth, you must use the starship

So far, there are still three unsolved problems in Project 2, namely controlled fusion, ion propulsion, and tri-titanium alloy.

Now, controlled fusion is about to be born, and the promotion of the No. 2 plan will be too great, and the brothers in Inner Mongolia who are holding back their big moves will definitely be ecstatic about it.

Without fusion reactors, there is not enough energy, and the propulsion efficiency of liquid fuel is too low, and a ten-ton starship can't be loaded with seven tons of fuel, otherwise it won't be able to come back after leaving the earth.

Although ion propulsion and tri-titanium alloys are also important, they can be temporarily replaced by existing technologies, such as electric propulsion, which is less efficient, has a slower speed, less torque, and higher energy consumption, but it can still be used.

"Here, have a toast!" Enron suggested.

He raised his glass and drank it down, his throat stirring and his expression excited, and Luo Jia and Dr. Xie Tian emptied the glass.

"If you don't eat it, let's go to the base first." After An Ran put down the wine glass, he said impatiently: "Without further ado, find a place to stop the business car, let's take the bus, the bus is fast, and it will take ten minutes." ”

Luo Jia smashed it, smashed his mouth, how did this sound so awkward, but it was the truth of Huaxia.

The air bus system is too bullish, which has caused a huge impact on the civilian car market, and now a little farther away, everyone is taking the bus, and driving by themselves has become a sign of slow backwardness.

In China, private cars are not a big deal, buses are the real royal road, and even the military likes to travel around by bus.
