Los Angeles, Santa Monica.

It's home to Route 66, the oldest pier in Los Angeles, beautiful beachfront beaches, lively beach carnivals, thrilling Pacific playgrounds and world-class shopping.

Shoreline Group's offline retail flagship store in California is not only located here, but also the North American film headquarters is located in this world-famous coastal town.

"Lao Mei is also full of disasters and difficulties, there are big fires, and there are big power outages, who the sky spares and does, and they do a lot of evil and eat the consequences."

The North American retail film assembly is full of floor-to-ceiling windows and looking out, well, he admits that this idea is a bit unauthentic, but it is dark.

Santa Monica wasn't as good as the legend says, with thousands of visitors living and not having access to electricity, and how much of an impact electricity has on modern life is heartbreaking for most people.

The power outage in western North America has affected the normal lives of 70 or 80 million people, equivalent to 22% of the population of the United States, and the economic losses of every minute and second are incalculable.

However, while most stores in Santa Monica are operating in the dark and banks are closed, only Shoreline Group's offline flagship store here continues to operate calmly and normally, and the power supply has been restored just two hours ago.

On the contrary, it has led to a small hot sales of PHM-S equipment.

As for the source of electricity in the store, of course, it is transmitted from Huaxia.

And other local places or business units and the like, are still in a hurry to prepare for emergency power generation, but it is also very limited, some units have backup generators, but they have not been used for more than ten years, and when they are pulled out at critical moments, they are out of order.

There are many more units that do not have emergency backup energy at all, and they can only stare dryly and wait for the local power supply to be restored as soon as possible, during which there is nothing to do except scold "Bichi" and "Madefak".

"Mr. Cheng, the current mayor of Los Angeles, Grenaves, came to visit." The assistant knocked on the door and reported.

"Grenaves? What did he come to me for? Still in person? Cheng Manlou looked suspicious, and the assistant added: "I don't know, but he looks very urgent, do you want to see him?" ”

"Let's see you." Cheng Manlou pondered for a moment, and roughly expected the other party's intention.

Leaving this house, a few minutes later, the two sides met in the reception room downstairs, and Grenavis briefly greeted him, and his polite words were omitted: "Mr. Cheng, I am sorry to take the liberty of visiting, but you should also know that the western region is now in the west, it is a disaster, and we urgently need your help." ”

"Help? Mr. Grenaves, please elaborate. Cheng Manlou stretched out his hand and said, the two sides sat on a sofa, in fact, he had expected that he and the mayor of Los Angeles did not know each other, and there was no intersection, he must have seen a large-scale power outage in western North America and the coastline retail stores were powering themselves after half an hour.

I fell in love with this.

Sure enough, Grenavis was in good spirits and said, "We need you to provide us with emergency power supply in the outage area......"

However, as soon as he opened his mouth, he interrupted him: "Sorry Mr. Mayor, there are power outages on several continents in the western part of North America, even the city of Vancouver in Canada, we don't have so much power to provide, this can't be done." Although China alone accounts for one-third of the world's electricity generation, it is still difficult to meet the development needs of our country. ”

Speaking of this, Cheng Manlou added: "You may not know that our company's space-based energy system of Life Light has just started, there are currently only six transmission satellites in the sky over North America, and all the current radio energy is allocated to the space space-based system by a wireless transmission tower located in Yongzhen, which was officially put into operation two weeks ago, and the radio energy supply is very limited." ”

Grenavis said in his heart: I don't care about this, who asked you Huaxia people to build so many damn high-speed rail lines? Can that thing eat electricity?

Then, the mayor of Los Angeles said, "Mr. Cheng, I understand what you said, we don't want you to directly provide emergency backup energy to all areas, but we want you to help major hospitals provide emergency energy supply, which is definitely okay." ”

Seeing Cheng Manlou's posture of not advancing with oil and salt, he scolded in his heart, but on the surface, he immediately said: "Countless lives are waiting for surgery, and they are extremely desperate to be treated." There are currently 1.62 million calls for emergency medical services in the Western Power Outage Zone, including 120,000 in Los Angeles alone......"

What do you say...... Your American imperialist also has a time to ask for help?

Cheng Manlou hesitated for a while, but he didn't have the authority to make this decision to Mr. Pian, and at this time, the assistant came to him and whispered: "Mr. Cheng, the landline phone in your office is from the embassy." ”

Embassy?

Cheng Manlou glanced at his assistant in surprise when he heard this, and then looked back at Grenaves's several Americans who came to visit.

Looks like they've done a lot of work, these Americans......

The embassy called, and Lao Mei was deeply sympathetic to the disaster at this time, so she silently made some conditions, which must be the case. Lao Mei must be giving benefits, not giving benefits, there is no cheap lunch in the world, and my rabbit never does loss-making business.

"Transfer it." Cheng Manlou commanded the assistant, and turned to look at Grenavis: "Sorry, I'm sorry." ”

After speaking, he immediately got up, took out a wireless earbud and put it in his ear, and turned on the holographic bracelet on his wrist to turn on the skillful operation of a floating screen.

In about three minutes, Cheng Manlou ended the call with the embassy in North America and dialed a number.

……

At the same time, Huaxia, Yongzhen.

While the western part of North America is currently in the grip of a power outage, the Eastern Hemisphere is already around 2 a.m.

Basically, those who haven't slept at this point belong to the Immortal Cultivation Party.

Ye Hua didn't sleep, his physique now only sleeps three or four hours a day, it is completely sufficient, it is normal to go to bed late and get up early, and he has already entered the realm of the Immortal Emperor.

But at this point, he was ready to sleep, Ye Hua went to the master bedroom and saw Lan Ping alone, and said casually, "What about the two of them?" ”

Naturally, it refers to Qiao Wei and Kitagawa Ayako, today is not a double holiday, Shanna did not come, Lan Ping lay sideways and looked at him hooking his fingers and laughed: "The spring night is bitter and short, and you must be happy, and you can sleep ...... after a tiring night."

"That's right, the night has ended." Ye Hua came with a gun as she wished, but at this time, Xiaoyin's voice sounded: "Master, the retail film assembly in the North American market is full of requests to talk to you?" The source of the signal is from Los Angeles. ”

"What time is it that stinky robot who doesn't understand the amorous feelings?" Lan Ping was very dissatisfied with Xiaoyin's sudden jump out to ruin the atmosphere, and the president of retail in the United States is also a bastard, don't you know that this side is 15 times faster than Los Angeles?

...... in the middle of the night

Xiaoyin: "Although Xiaoyin has been corrected many times, it will still be corrected, Xiaoyin is a digital life, not a robot. ”

Lan Ping: "You are!" ”

Ye Hua shook his head helplessly, made a silent gesture, and Lan Ping was also very well-behaved to be a quiet beauty.

"Plug in, I won't call in the middle of the night if there's nothing important."

After a while, the voice of Cheng Manlou sounded in the communication access: "I'm sorry Mr. Ye, I bothered you so late." ”

Ye Hua responded lightly: "It's good to know, what's a long story short." ”

Cheng Manlou: "Uh...... Good. When a large-scale power outage occurred more than two hours ago in California and other western regions of North America, the local state government asked our company for help and asked us to provide emergency power and energy support to the local area, and also contacted the local embassy......"
